Harem Rebirth: The Queen's Scheme

Chapter 36: Yuan Xi and Baoyue

After a delay of nearly two months on the road, he arrived in Yongzhou City in July. ┌

At night, I rested in the Yongzhou Governor's Mansion, and the Yongzhou Governor assigned two 'waiters' and 'women' to me, who were waiting for me to bathe and change clothes, and Qi Min pushed the 'door' in, and the two hurriedly retreated.

I hid my body in the water, frowned, and said, "Why did you come in at this time?" I saw him wearing a light purple round-necked home-style casual dress, the neckline and cuffs were embroidered with a 'flower' pattern of 10,000 characters, and only a fan was decorated on the gold belt, and the fan cover was a little familiar. I let out a soft "huh" and asked, "Did I do it before?"

Qi Min said with a smile: "It can be seen that you don't care much about me, and I don't remember making a fan cover, but I heard that you made a robe." ”

I was stunned, and said a little distantly: "What does the emperor want to be 'fine' so that there are no things? The concubines are stupid, but I am afraid that the things I make will not get into your eyes." ”

He was also stunned, and forced a smile: "Okay, don't talk about this, just the two of us here, no need to use honorifics." After a pause, he added, "I'll wait for you outside." ”

I didn't want him to wait longer, so after a little soaking, I got up, wiped my body and put on a long-sleeved nightgown with snow tulle, and walked outside with my hair scattered, and when I saw Qi Min sitting with his back to me, I asked, "Is there anything wrong?"

He walked up to me and took my hand, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'm just worried that you will be tired from traveling these days, I let them stew some tonics, and you can drink it and rest later, tomorrow, I will take you somewhere." ”

I nodded, and asked, "Where to go?"

But he played a dumb riddle with me: "Ming** will know." ”

I smiled, but it happened that the 'waiter' and 'woman' brought the soup over, which I used with Qi Min, and then said that I was tired and was ready to send him to the 'door'.

He stood at the entrance of the 'door' for a while, then turned around and asked with a smile, "Are you really not with me?"

These days, at night, whether we are encamped or at the inn, we sleep separately. The three armies are all there, so as not to leave people behind. At this time, when he asked like this, I felt uncomfortable, my face turned red, and I whispered, "That...... Why don't I go to your place tonight?"

He chuckled under his breath and said, "You must be tired from your journey, so rest here!" I ...... tonight I'll have to talk to a few ministers!"

It's kidding me!

I couldn't help but be ashamed and angry, glared at him fiercely, and closed the 'door'.

His clear laughter came from outside the 'door', and my cheeks were hot, and I stamped my feet and went to bed!

It was really tiring to travel, and even though I had the 'problem' of choosing a table, I still fell asleep as soon as I touched the 'bed'.

The next morning, the 'waiter' and 'woman' came to serve me and freshened up, and gave me a brand new rouge 'color' Hangzhou silk placket skirt. The comb is a back bun, fixed on one side with two red gold hairpins, and a red silver sideburns 'flower' the size of a wine cup is placed on the sideburns, and a string of tassels hangs down.

A thin layer of powder was applied to the face, and the distant mountains were painted, and the lipstick was applied. The two 'waiters' and 'women' both praised: "The princess is also beautiful in our Hanfu!"

I smiled, only to notice in the mirror that I also had fine lines at the corners of my eyes.

Next year, I will be thirty years old, but I am really old!

Qi Min came to accompany me to breakfast, and when he saw me dressed like this, he nodded frequently and said with a smile: "My aunt is still so beautiful." ”

I sighed, "I'm old, how beautiful can I be? There must be a lot of young and beautiful 'girls' around you!"

He took my hand and said with a smile, "Eat first, let's go out later." ”

I don't have a theory, but after breakfast, he was still dressed in his usual clothes, and with only a few guards, he went out of the city in a carriage.

I lifted the curtain and looked outside, and I asked, "Where is this?"

Qi Min smiled: "Go to Phoenix Mountain, Qingxi Academy." ”

"What are you doing there?"

He held my hand, smiled, and said, "I sent Baoyue and Yuan Xi to the academy to attend classes, I have always been busy with the affairs of the court over the years, and you are not around, I am afraid that the Gao family will teach Yuan Xi badly, and I am also afraid that she will not be good for Baoyue." After thinking about it, I could only send them here in the name of studying. Although it is not as good as the brocade clothes and 'jade' food of the palace, at least it can be sincere and happy. As he spoke, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and he smiled: "I came to see them in my spare time, and they all said that they had a good time here." ”

Ahh

I was originally worried about how to face Yuan Xi and Baoyue after I came back, but I didn't expect Qi Min to take great pains for these two children. Let me meet them before I go back to the palace so that they can accept my new identity.

The carriage soon arrived at the foot of Phoenix Mountain, and we walked up and entered Qingxi Academy, and the dean was still the white-bearded old man Mingsong. He first bowed to Qi Min with a national salute, and then Qi Min returned with a teacher salute, but when he returned to worship, Ming Song turned sideways to avoid it, and did not dare to accept this salute.

My mind was on the two children, Ming Song just glanced at me lightly, and didn't say much, let people take us to meet Yuan Xi and Baoyue.

I tried my best to suppress the 'agitation', Qi Min gently pinched my fingertips, we walked to the outside of a classroom, through the wide open window, I saw the students inside in class, although they were wearing the same light blue cloth clothes, I still saw Yuan Xi and Baoyue at a glance, following the teacher's shaking head and reciting it!

My eyes were jerky again, and Qi Min pulled me to a vacant room on the other side, and after a while, Yuan Xi and Bao Yue were brought in.

Yuan Xi saw Qi Min first, and Bao Yue saw me first.

Baoyue was stunned for a moment, then surprised and delighted, and shouted: "Queen Mother!"

I crouched down and opened my arms to her. Baoyue threw herself into my arms and cried: "Queen Mother, Queen Mother...... So you're not dead......! Woo woo...... "I hugged her and burst into tears, and then looked at her face and size carefully, nodded and said incoherently: "So tall...... Lost weight...... Isn't there enough to eat here? Why do you still wear coarse cloth clothes? Isn't it hard to study?"

Baoyue burst into tears and laughed, and said, "Queen Mother, I'm very good here! The people in the palace will only grovel to me, it's different here, you don't have to follow so many rules, I'm the same as everyone else!"

I also felt that I was making a fuss, so I smiled embarrassedly, and then looked at Yuan Xi again. Yuan Xi was initially stunned, looked at me and opened his mouth: "Too ...... The Empress Dowager ......"

Qi Min reminded softly beside him: "Now it's time to call the queen mother." ”

Yuan Xi's eyes were full of sleepy 'confusion': "Queen Mother?"

Bao Yue's eyes lit up, and she said happily: "Has the queen mother married the imperial uncle? Great! I have long said that this is the best!"

I smiled, 'touching' and 'touching' her head, but Yuan Xi snorted, "That'...... What about my mother?"

When Bao Yue heard this, she became angry and said angrily: "Why are you still mentioning that bad 'woman' for you? She almost killed me! She also taught you not to get close to me!"

Yuan Xi lowered his head and didn't speak, but I didn't listen like it, and hurriedly asked, "Baoyue, what's going on?"

Baoyue's eyes were red, and she hugged me and said, "Queen Mother, when you were not in the palace, that bad 'woman' always bullied me! and instructed the eunuch to push me off the lotus 'flower' pool! If it weren't for Aunt Bai holding me all the time, I wouldn't have seen you!"

I was shocked and looked at Qi Min, he just frowned and didn't say anything, so it can be seen that he also knew about it! No wonder he sent the two children here in a good manner! I felt a chill in my heart, although Gao didn't know that Baoyue was her own child, but it was really intolerable to treat a child like this!

Qi Min said: "Now that you are back, these two children will still be taught by you in the future." As she spoke, her tone was cold, and her eyes were cold, "Otherwise, all the good children will be folded in her hands!"
