This return journey, compared to the time when it came, was doubly more difficult for everyone.

It's entirely because of the fact that He Mian'er and Xu Yunqing have a gap, and they only keep a straight face every day, and among the crowd, only Feng Xianchuan dares to laugh twice.

Along the way, there was nothing to say.

After returning to Beijing more than ten days later, He Mian'er walked to the Imperial History Mansion. Since she left, Shuo Ye has been in the care of her parents.

At this moment, when she returned to Beijing, one was to send someone to report to the emperor in the palace, and on the other hand, she went to meet her parents and children.

As for Chen Xian, she discussed with the child on the way, and later changed her name to "He Shuomu", recognized He Mian'er as her godmother, and raised her with Shuoye in the future.

In this way, this child is only two years older than Shuoye.

Shuo Ye hadn't seen his mother for a long time, and he was a little strange for a while, so he couldn't help but hide behind He Mu. When he saw that it was his mother, he cried and threw himself into He Mian'er's arms.

provoked He Mian'er to tears for a while, and felt a little sad in her heart, after all, she had been away from the child for so long.

Father He saw the little child hiding behind his daughter, but in front of everyone, it was inconvenient for him to ask more.

Feng Xianchuan had already returned to Feng's house to meet his parents, and Caifeng was also in a hurry to see his parents and brother.

As for the playful official, He Mian'er directly sent a coachman to send him to the princess's mansion.

He Mian'er didn't have time to stay with her parents for a while, and the little eunuch in the palace arrived. It was only said that His Majesty issued an order to summon her into the palace.

Although Father He was reluctant to leave after his daughter met in a hurry, he still patted his daughter on the shoulder and said:

"Along the way, Mian'er's deeds have been discussed in the court, and my father has already heard about it. My son is doing well. ”

These few words gave He Mian'er great encouragement. Nothing is more important to her than the approval of her parents.

At the moment, he was moved to say with emotion: "Mian'er is determined, go all out." ”

Father He said with relief: "It is worthy of being my daughter, go ahead, and say hello to Your Majesty on my behalf." ”

He Mian'er has not seen the new emperor since that day in prison, and she can't help but be a little apprehensive now.

The new emperor was already waiting in the imperial study. When He Mian'er saw it, she immediately took out the account book in her arms that had never left her for more than ten days and presented it.

The new emperor flipped through it a few times, and saw the hands and feet done in the account book, and immediately said angrily: "This group of people is really unscrupulous, isn't it a decoration to be a widow?" ”

The new emperor was also a scholar, and he knew that for scholars, there was nothing more important than being admitted to the Jinshi and gaining fame.

In a way, this is the life of a scholar.

He Mian'er had already read this account book, and she knew that there were all kinds of dirty and illegal things such as buying and selling officials in various places, cheating in the imperial examinations, leaking examination questions, and replacing the township examination and the quota for the general examination.

is only the palace test presided over by the emperor himself, and most of this group of people are afraid of revealing their stuffing, so they don't dare to mess around.

When the new emperor said this, he was furious, and he coughed.

This cough couldn't be stopped for a while. He Mian'er hurriedly got up and poured a cup of tea for the new emperor, and when she looked carefully, she found that the new emperor had lost a lot of weight compared to him before.

The new emperor is a weak scholar with thin bones. But after all, he is in his prime, and there is still some childishness on his face.

Now it seems that the skinny cheekbones can be seen, and they are about to lose their appearance. Book Bar

He Mian'er was startled, and almost knocked over the tea handed over to the ground. She stabilized her mind and comforted: "Your Majesty drink a cup of tea, don't be angry." ”

The new emperor finally relented, patted his chest, and then took the tea ceremony: "Thank you Mian'er, in recent days, my body and bones have not been as good as before." ”

As soon as these words came out, He Mian'er carefully looked at the person in front of her, and she was sad in her heart. He was probably unhappy to be this emperor.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally said up: "Your Majesty, don't be angry about these things every day, you still have to relax, eat more, and don't be too tired." ”

As soon as these words came out, the new emperor smiled slightly and said, "I still hope that Mian'er can call me, Master Chen." ”

This requirement is not so difficult for He Mian'er. The new emperor may not be the former Master Chen, but occasionally, she can still see the shadow of Master Chen from him.

Since he has already called himself "I", it doesn't hurt that He Mian'er calls him a sentence of Master Chen.

At that moment, he said softly: "Master Chen also needs to eat more and take care of his body." Mian'er would rather Master Chen be an ordinary emperor than a diligent and virtuous emperor. ”

Chen Fuzi laughed and said, "In the whole world, I'm afraid that only Mian'er thinks so." ”

When the two of them said this, they were a little less restrained by monarchs and ministers, and a little more affectionate.

"Mian'er, let's have a meal with Master Chen today." The new emperor suddenly spoke.

He Mian'er hadn't seen the new emperor for many days, and he made such a request, but she couldn't bear to refuse. The new emperor is very skinny, if she is present, she can let him eat more, she is also willing.

At the moment, he smiled and said: "Mian'er is better to be respectful than to obey fate." The imperial food in this palace is better than eating it after hearing it for a long time. ”

Both of them laughed, quite a kind of crossing the catastrophe and the two of them were there, laughing at each other.

The imperial food in the palace was extraordinary, and in a moment it filled a whole large table. The table is full of dazzling, delicacies from the mountains and seas, delicious delicacies, and everything is available.

The new emperor was probably very interested, and he didn't even care about the relationship between the monarch and the minister, so he gave He Mian'er a few chopsticks and said, "Mian'er, you eat." ”

He Mian'er looked at the dishes on this table, but he was the only one eating, and for some reason, a sadness surged in his heart.

She is in the house, her parents are there, and Shuoye is by her side, plus Yingzi, Shen Ji and others, it is not lively.

The new emperor is in the palace, but there is only one person facing so many dishes, I am afraid that there is no one to speak.

"It seems that the eldest princess is still here, Your Majesty has a much better appetite today." The little eunuch on one side saw that the two were happy, and couldn't help but interject.

"Little Fuzi, it's too talkative." The new emperor said with a cold face.

The eunuch who was called Xiaofuzi immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy again and again: "It's a little too talkative, please forgive Your Majesty." ”

He Mian'er knew why the new emperor cared so much, he just ate a small bowl of rice, and he was afraid that even the five-year-old He Shuomu had eaten more than him.

But this little eunuch said that the new emperor has a good appetite today. It seems that on weekdays, the new emperor eats less, and it is no wonder that he is afraid that He Mian'er will hear it.

"Your Majesty..."He Mian'er wanted to persuade again, but she also knew that the new emperor didn't want to know and worry, so she had to shut up at the moment.

The new emperor looked at He Mian'er and asked, "I heard that Mian'er brought a drama back to Beijing from the land of Longyan?" ”

He Mian'er was taken aback, obviously this matter was extremely secret, and the new emperor actually knew about it, which was somewhat unexpected by her.

I had to explain the events of that day carefully, and put aside my relationship with the play.

After hearing this, the new emperor immediately said: "Since this is the case, when you are free, send him into the palace." The widow also wants to listen to a few songs. ”
