Ye Qingmei heard this, so he also said in a low voice: "If you lose it again, don't say that your mother can't stand it, even me and my eldest brother will collapse." I've never run on the street in the middle of the night in my life, and in order to find you, I searched all over Lin'an City. Ah! We all hope that you will be blessed and have a great life, more than we hope for ourselves, so you must be well. ”

After Ye Qingmei said this, his head tilted slightly. She saw her eldest sister pushing back the tears that were about to be left in her eyes by looking up......

Changxin Palace Night Wen Yan is also the first time to come, and the Empress Dowager Yu is also the first time since the second night of the lunar month.

Compared with a month ago, Empress Dowager Yu has lost some weight, and her mental outlook is much better than before.

Changxin Palace is not as big as Yong'an Palace, nor is it as luxurious as Yong'an Palace, because there are not many people coming and going, and Empress Dowager Yu is quiet, so there are very few people walking in this palace. In Congwen's words: "The Queen Mother thinks that there are enough people, she can sprinkle and sweep every day, and it is enough to serve tea and water, so you don't have to talk about those pomp." ”

When he said this, the three of them had already entered the main hall of Changxin Palace, Mu was in front, and the two daughters were behind, and the three of them knelt on the ground and saluted, and said in unison: "The Queen Mother is a thousand years old, a thousand years old." ”

Empress Dowager Yu stood up from her seat, stepped forward quickly, and personally supported Mu Shi, with a very low posture: "The eldest lady please get up quickly, you are the widow of the night general, the general is a minister of great merit to the country, even if the mourning family is the queen mother, she can't afford to be the eldest lady to make such a big gift." Hurry up, please! After speaking, he also said to Ye Wenyan and Ye Qingmei, "The two young ladies should also hurry up." ”

When Empress Dowager Yu was a concubine, because she had a son who couldn't speak, she was almost invisible in this palace. No one wants to have too much contact with her, and no one sees her as an imaginary enemy. Even if she was waiting for the first emperor who had been ill for a long time in the following years, no one had any thoughts about her.

Mu Shi has never been in contact with this queen mother, except for one time she can see it at the palace banquet every year, she doesn't know what kind of character this queen mother is, and whether she gets along well or not.

At the moment, Leng Buding was taken aback by Empress Dowager Yu's low posture and such enthusiastic words, and he didn't react for a while how to answer these words.

She subconsciously turned her head to look at Ye Wenyan, but fortunately, her daughter was considerate, and took a step forward to say for her: "Although my father has military achievements, that is also his duty as a general of a country." Protecting the family and defending the country is the duty and obligation of every Northern Qi Erlang, just like the courtiers knocking on the Queen Mother, it is also their duty and obligation. ”

Empress Dowager Yu smiled, "Yes, that's why you knelt down to mourn the family, and the mourning family also accepted it, since you have knelt, then let's sit and talk." The fourth lady has a relationship with the mourning family, and is the benefactor of the mourning family and the emperor, so let's not be polite between us, let alone have a part. ”

Congwen led the three of them to sit down, and Empress Dowager Yu also returned to her seat. Although it was far away, his enthusiasm was still undiminished, and he was still saying to Mu Shi: "I don't know which of the two of us is older, and it doesn't seem to be very good to talk about sisters in the palace, so the mourning family will call you by your name!" Your name is Mu Qianqiu, right? The mourning family calls you Qianqiu, so that it seems close. Qianqiu, you really gave birth to a good daughter, the fourth lady is not only beautiful, but also has a magical medical skill, and she actually healed the emperor's throat. ”

As soon as Empress Dowager Yu mentioned this, she couldn't stop talking, if she hadn't been reminded by Wen from the side, she would have been able to start talking about it since she was pregnant. Even if he was reminded by Congwen, he still couldn't speak from the emperor suddenly, and he talked until he was cured by Ye Wenyan.

Ye Wenyan drank two cups of tea, until the palace maid served the third one, Empress Dowager Yu finally finished recalling the past, but then asked Mu Shi: "Qianqiu, the mourning family saw that your eldest daughter was born really well, and the person is also quiet, I don't know how old I am this year, but there is a good match?" ”

This sentence made Ye Qing's eyebrows blush and almost drip blood, Congwen really convinced his master, and quickly persuaded again: "Niangniang, this is the first time you and Miss Ye have met, but it's not good to scare people." ”

Empress Dowager Yu realized that she was a little anxious, but she also had her own reasoning: "The emperor will be seventeen years old, and there will be another year when it is time for the wedding." Qianqiu, the mourning family really likes the girl of your family, originally thinking that the fourth lady would cure the emperor's throat, and the two of them are really fateful. But the emperor didn't think much about it, and chased the fourth lady all day long to call her sister, and the mourning family had to keep thinking about it. So I want to ask how old the eldest lady is this year, and is there a good match? If there is no marriage, then what do you think of the son of the mourning family? Will you meet and talk at the palace banquet later? ”

Ye Qingmei's head couldn't be lowered any lower, and she was embarrassed to take it when she was killed.

So Mu Shi hurriedly took the words: "You are the Queen Mother, and calling her name is to lift her, but you must not be called the Queen Mother." The little girl Qingmei is seventeen years old this year and already has a marriage contract. It's just that the family is in mourning, and the day of marriage has to be postponed, and it is estimated that it will take another three years. ”

"Betrothed?" Empress Dowager Yu was very regretful, and even sighed. "Although he is one year older than the emperor, the mourning family thinks that women are older and know how to hurt people. The emperor couldn't speak before, and he has been a dumb person for more than ten years, so he really needs to be helped by a calm and stable queen with good character. I thought it would work, but I didn't expect it to be engaged, and the mourning family was a step late. ”

Ye Qingmei's face turned even redder.

Ye Wenyan finally understood what the Empress Dowager Yu had in mind, and she had fallen in love with her before, but she should have heard that she lived in Yanhua Palace these days, so she had to dispel this idea.

Although Empress Dowager Yu is low-key, she is also a very smart person, a woman who can live in Yanhua Palace, and has a magical medical skill, even if such a person can't marry back, then retreat to the next best thing and marry a sister who is better with this woman, which is also a guarantee for her son's future.

She looked at the Empress Dowager Yu again, and she could clearly feel that talking to people so enthusiastically was not what the Empress Dowager was good at. And the reason why she still wants to do this is really to pave a good road for her son. This should also be inquired, there are three daughters in the big house of the night family, but the eldest daughter is close to the younger daughter. Therefore, Empress Dowager Yu was very sorry after hearing that Ye Qingmei had been engaged, but she kept silent about the night.

The queen mother had such thoughts, but Ye Wenyan did not feel disgusted. I only know that this is a mother who has to do things that she is not good at for her son, and has to go to people she is not familiar with.

Of course, the most important thing is that Empress Dowager Yu just tried her best to do things well, but she didn't force herself to do anything.

For example, now, it's just a pity to hear that Ye Qingmei is engaged, and she won't say anything more.

If this is replaced by the Empress Dowager Li, how can I take this kind of thing to heart, as long as it is beneficial to myself, let alone an engagement, even if it becomes a parent, it must be snatched up.

"That's right!" She thought about it and suddenly remembered something, this "yes" shouted so loudly that it startled everyone in the hall. Empress Dowager Yu first asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Ye Wenyan replied: "The envoy of the Guiyue Kingdom brought a county lord into the palace, saying that he came to Heqin. The Queen Mother must remember that she must not agree to this peace, and she must not let the emperor marry the lord of Guiyue. ”

Empress Dowager Yu was puzzled, "Why?" ”

Ye Wenyan told her: "The lord of Guiyue County may have a sick brain, and our emperor can't marry a fool." ”

"How so?" Empress Dowager Yu obviously didn't expect such a thing, and immediately panicked, "What can I do about this?" The two countries have been in peace with each other for generations, and there seems to be no reason to refuse. Although the emperor has not yet been in power, it is feasible to settle this matter first, and it is feasible to get married after two years. But if it's a brain problem, then it's definitely not good, but how can you say no? Wouldn't it hurt too much? ”

Ye Wenyan really admired this queen mother a little, "Guiyue Kingdom is embarrassed to send a county lord with a brain problem to us, what else are you embarrassed to say no?" It was they who first went down to the face of Northern Qi, and you, as the queen mother, have the obligation to get this face back. ”

She was also used to it, and as she spoke, her own energy came up. The innate posture of the head of the Xuanmai family was highlighted, and the words he said sounded a bit like teaching Empress Dowager Yu how to be a good empress dowager.

Aware of the change in the tone of his daughter's voice, Mu immediately whispered, "Yan'er, speak well." ”

Empress Dowager Yu didn't care about this, she just waved her hand and said, "It's okay, the fourth lady should talk like this, and she is right." Just now, the mourning family wanted to be bad, and the fourth lady was right, it was the injustice of the Moon Kingdom that came first, so we didn't need to talk to them about benevolence. It's just ......," she was still worried, "but what if I can't refuse?" Or what if the other party doesn't admit it? ”

Ye Wenyan told her: "I must be able to refuse, the Queen Mother only needs to remind the emperor that as long as he doesn't nod his head, no one will force him." ”

Empress Dowager Yu was 100% convinced of Ye Wenyan, whether it was curing her son's throat at the beginning, or later hearing that Ye Wenyan lived in Yanhua Palace. In short, as long as she faces this Miss Night Four, she will have a feeling of "having a bottom in her heart" for no reason. No matter what Ye Wenyan says, she is willing to listen and believe.

So he immediately nodded, "Okay, the mourning family listens to the fourth lady." ”

A palace man came in, came to the front and said: "The Empress Dowager, the banquet is about to begin, please move the phoenix to the flying hall." ”

As soon as Mu Shi heard this, he immediately said: "The Queen Mother still has to prepare, and the courtiers will not bother." I am fortunate to see the Queen Mother today, and I will definitely come to greet him often in the future. ”

Empress Dowager Yu was very happy, "Okay, you can grow up to be the best." After saying that, he felt that he just let the three of Mu go like this, which seemed to be almost meaningful. After thinking about it for a while, he immediately thought about it, so he said, "The mourning family has never been a queen before, and this is not very suitable for being the queen mother for the first time, you shouldn't leave empty-handed when you come back, the mourning family should reward something, but what is the reward?" ”

She looked left and right, then touched her hand, and finally ordered Congwen: "Go quickly, go to the dormitory and bring the wooden box that the mourning family has stored at the bottom of the cabinet......
