043, take a cold look first
Jingchen flipped through two or three folds, threw the pen away, got up and looked at the window.
Li Shuanglin said that the Queen Mother would definitely send someone later, Jingchen was still beating the drum in his heart, what if the Queen Mother didn't send someone to tell him?
It's not that the Queen Mother hasn't done this, when she was young before, she couldn't hold her breath, couldn't hold back her words, a little little thing, always wanted to get a result, fight for right and wrong, if not, she cried so much that she jumped in the house.
At that time, the Queen Mother could also drink tea calmly outside, leaving him a little one to compete with himself, and when he was completely quiet, the Queen Mother would call him to him and tell him why he couldn't be like this, saying that it was better to smooth out his temperament, otherwise he would only suffer greater losses and suffer greater sins if he left himself in the future.
At that time, Jingchen understood that there was no definite result for many things in this world, especially being born in the royal family, in the palace, family, status, power, mutual checks and balances, there was never right or wrong, only eternal balance.
And if the preference is too revealed, it can only become his weakness, hurting himself and others.
When the Queen Mother was young, she was very smart and won the emperor's heart, Rao is like this, and she only got such a son as Jingchen in her life, who was full of plans for him, and worked hard for many years to get this position where she could sit back and relax.
Jingchen has indeed become an angry emperor as the Queen Mother expected, but he is still too young now, and if he sharpens it for a few more years, he will be more sharp.
The truth that he didn't understand when he was a teenager was later understood, but in his childhood, there was still not much light, and there was no comfort and warmth of ordinary people.
There are many sons of the first emperor, when Jingchen was young, a few died, and although the rest have grown up well, their feelings are not as pure and deep as when they were children.
Especially after Jingchen became the emperor and his brothers were crowned princes, there were even more contradictions.
In fact, he has never really experienced what it is like to put a woman in his heart.
The Queen Mother said that if you love someone, you will become sensitive, fragile, and vulnerable.
Jingchen didn't like that, he didn't like to be shackled, it was a trouble on the way to the throne.
So he didn't love.
The queen mother said that if you marry the queen, the entire Tong family will support you and support you, and the road to becoming a prince will go smoother, so he will marry.
The first emperor said that the Su family is loyal, although it is from the stepfamily, but it is also the status of a concubine, and he will give you a side concubine.
Every woman in the palace basically has her background and background, and even the concubines who were selected to enter the palace after ascending the throne are at least the daughters of the sixth-grade magistrates.
Only Ruyi is a little palace maid.
She has no background, no family, although Jingchen doesn't know what it should be like to love someone, but Ruyi can only rely on him, so he unconsciously cares and pities a little more.
That's it, the Queen Mother also asked him to put it away.
Jingchen couldn't let the Queen Mother know that he cared too much, so he showed a little bit that day, and he didn't go to the harem after being refuted by the Queen Mother, but he couldn't let the Queen Mother think that he really didn't care, when Qiuzhu next to Concubine Ming came to ask, he also revealed a little bit of the recent situation, although it was not much, but Concubine Ming also knew that Jingchen cared about this, and Concubine Ming took care of her on the days of Ruyi, and Concubine Rong didn't dare to find fault, which was not sad.
This degree is not easy to grasp, Jingchen feels that he has done a good job, otherwise the Queen Mother would have asked him to go to Yongshou Palace to accompany him to listen to the Buddhist scriptures and meditate.
After turning around the room twice, looking east and west, counting that the time was almost up, Jingchen sat back in front of the table, pretending to pinch the fold to read, but in fact, his ears kept listening to the movement outside, and the fold was sorted out twice, and after picking a few greetings and excerpts for casual approval, he finally heard the footsteps of Li Shuanglin coming in.
"Your Majesty, Aunt Mo Yan beside the Queen Mother is here." Li Shuanglin came in to report the letter first.
Jingchen raised his eyes and glanced at it, rolled his eyes, and after a long sound, he responded: "Please aunt come in." โ
Li Shuanglin understood, and stood next to him for a while before going outside to invite his aunt in.
After Mo Yan came in, Li Shuanglin consciously took everyone away, Mo Yan glanced at Jingchen who was pretending to be hard at correction, and laughed: "The emperor deliberately is so slow, and the slave also knows that the emperor is worried about Li agreeing." โ
Jingchen pursed his lips, sighed, and put down the pen in his hand: "Auntie knows, don't pierce me." โ
Mo Yan's smile deepened: "The slave maid is here to reassure the emperor at the behest of the queen mother, will the emperor listen or not?" โ
was seen through, Jingchen stopped pretending, and sat honestly upright and smiled: "Auntie, please speak, I listen." โ
"The Queen Mother invited the little master to talk to her today, presumably. has already told the emperor quickly. Mo Yan said slowly, when he said this, Jingchen was still a little embarrassed and pulled the corners of his mouth, "The queen mother has always known the emperor's intentions, and she also saw that she promised the little lord to be honest and duty-bound earlier. โ
Jingchen frowned: "The queen mother has left someone?" โ
Mo Yan bowed.
Ruyi is on the Queen Mother's side, although he asks An to see him every day, he can't say a few words, and he can't get along alone, let alone sleep.
Jingchen was a little unhappy: "The turmoil has subsided, she goes to Yongshou Palace during the day, why do you still want to stay, she is a little girl, don't bother the queen mother." โ
Mo Yan pursed his lips and smiled: "The little lord has a calm temperament and understands proportions very well, the queen mother likes it, so she naturally keeps it, this is the blessing of the little master, and the emperor can't stop it." โ
Jingchen pondered for a while and sighed: "Since my aunt has said this, there must be something to say, right?" โ
"Yes." Mo Yan lowered his eyes and saluted Jingchen again before he said, "The slave and maid are brave, they have been with the queen mother for many years, and they have also grown up watching the emperor, since the queen mother has entrusted these words to the slave and maid, the slave and maid will also be outspoken, hoping that the emperor will forgive her sins." โ
Jingchen motioned to Mo Yan to say it directly.
Mo Yan stood up straight, pondered for a moment before speaking: "The emperor has been closed in the Qianzheng Palace these days, even if he doesn't want to see people for the sake of the four princes, there should be a deadline, should the ladies of the palace really stare at Li and be embarrassed?" The emperor is such a smart person, if he wants to come to the slave and maid, he also understands, the emperor treats Li to promise well, but he should not snub the ladies in the harem, a long stream of water is the right way, as long as the emperor goes to other places more, Li promised to naturally get better. โ
The emperor's patronage and shelter are indispensable in this harem.
But to have a little shade is enough for today's Ruyi.
More often than not, burdens and misfortunes.
"Concubine Hui was injured to protect the four princes, has the emperor been to see it?"
"The queen is in charge of the harem, and she is exhausted about the New Year's Festival, has the emperor ever cared about it?"
"There are also Concubine Ming, Concubine Yi, all palaces and courtyards are looking forward to the emperor, not only Li promised one person, but now he promised that the little lord will be taken care of by the queen mother for the time being, and the emperor can relax his heart, why confine himself at this time, and wipe out the best ignorance between each other?" Aunt Mo Yan's persuasion is also slow and reasonable, very sincere, "If you can keep the loneliness, you can last for a long time, the queen mother's teachings, the emperor wants to remember it." โ
Jingchen naturally remembered.
He stared at Aunt Mo Yan, and after being silent for a moment, he finally sighed and let go: "I know." โ

The night went by very quickly.
Early the next morning, Ruyi asked the red leaves and green sleeves to dress her up plainly, and the Queen Mother served in front of her, and it was not appropriate to dress too brightly.
She hadn't slept peacefully for some days, and she always woke up at dawn, Ruyi even laughed at herself, thinking that her sister was 'crazy', and the next person who 'went crazy' would be herself.
If you want to go to Yongshou Palace, the autumn leaves are mixed.
When she came back yesterday, she was reprimanded by Ruyi, she was a little unhappy in her heart, and she was found by Chang Fu at night, and she mentioned it a lot, and after a night of careful thinking, she was much calmer at this time.
She still has to win Ruyi's trust now, but she is indeed in a bit of a hurry, thinking that Ruyi is still the girl who just entered the knitting bureau, forgetting the fact that they have been separated for so long, and people will always change.
Momiji was so silent, Ruyi was a little unaccustomed at first, but after a while, seeing that her demeanor was calm, she thought it was a good thing, thinking that Momiji had listened to her words and knew that it was a good thing for her.
Go to the Queen Mother to repair the embroidery, not to mention the rest of the month, to catch up with the New Year's Festival shortly before the New Year.
Fortunately, Ruyi didn't have many things, so she brought a few changes of clothes and two sets of jewelry, and the two girls carried the package, so she went.
Concubine Rong was begging for tea here from Concubine Ming, and when she saw Ruyi coming over to ask the mother of the main palace to go to Yongshou Palace, her eyes were about to turn to the sky.
Ruyi didn't expect to meet Concubine Rong early in the morning, and she also saluted and greeted her.
Concubine Rong came to ignore people, but Concubine Ming was still the same good temperament, stepped forward and took Ruyi's hand, to leave her to sit down and drink tea, Ruyi thanked Concubine Ming for her kindness, I was afraid that the Queen Mother would be late and didn't see that she was not good.
Concubine Rong put the teacup and wanted to choke on Ruyi, but Concubine Ming turned around and took a look, swallowed the words that came to her mouth, and snorted indignantly, but she couldn't say anything after all.
After Ruyi was gone, Concubine Rong said coquettishly: "Why did Sister Ming look at me like that just now?" โ
Concubine Ming lowered her eyes and brought the incense burner to Concubine Rong: "Get closer to you, you extinguish the fire and calm down." โ
Concubine Rong pouted: "What do I have to meditate on!" It's the little palace maid who should meditate! โ
Concubine Ming raised her eyes: "Trouble comes from the mouth, don't blame the palace for not reminding you, what little palace maid is not a little palace maid, she is now the emperor's concubine, Li promised, such a title is not allowed to be mentioned in the future." โ
Concubine Rong continued to be indignant: "Sister Ming, you said that the Queen Mother asked her to go, did the emperor mean it?" โ
Concubine Ming smiled lightly: "It's her own ability, if you know how to embroider in Qingyao, the Queen Mother will also call you there, but it's a chore, embroidering like this day by day, the palace can't bear this hardship." โ
Bitter?
The anger on Concubine Rong's face dissipated two or three layers at once: "It's bitter, I'll embroider something for the emperor myself." I'm so tired that my eyes hurt and my waist hurts. After speaking, Concubine Rong's eyes rolled and she laughed again, "But also, she is the best at doing these things, we can't learn it, go to the Queen Mother and serve hard, serve well, maybe the Queen Mother can reward her with a good thing." โ
Concubine Ming was silent, glanced at Concubine Rong, who was thundering for a while and sunny for a while, and hooked the corners of her mouth.

When the three masters and servants arrived outside the Yongshou Palace, it was the third time Ruyi saw the aunt.
My aunt always smiled kindly, stretched out her hand to pick up the burden on Momiji's arm, and beckoned the little palace maid and little eunuch next to her to follow, and sent all the things promised to the little master to the side room.
The aunt stretched out her hand to support Ruyi, and Ruyi took the opportunity to say: "I don't know what to call my aunt?" โ
"Slave Shenyun." She lowered her eyes and reminded Ruyi, "Little lord watch your step." โ
Hongye was afraid that the little palace maid of Yongshou Palace would break a few sets of jewelry rewarded by the emperor, so she ran to see it, and Green Sleeves could only follow, saying that she was going to help.
Only Ruyi and Aunt Shenyun walked slowly, and she had a chance to say thank you: "Auntie has helped me a few times, thank you Auntie." โ
"Slaves and maids are all on orders, and the little master knows in his heart, and he knows who he should be thankful for." Shen Yun smiled lightly, and led Ruyi to the Queen Mother to ask for peace first.
I thought that just now, the Queen Mother would leave herself to drink tea and talk, but I didn't expect the Queen Mother to raise her eyes to look at herself, and after listening to the greetings, she just looked at a calligraphy and painting in front of her, waved her hand and said: "Go, go, and be busy with your going." โ
This drove Ruyi out perfunctorily.
Go to the small wing room earlier to have its own outside door, yesterday Aunt Mo Yan led the way to the inside of several doors are closed today, is Ruyi from the outside of the pass, see another place yesterday did not see, pull the screen, around the curtain in front of you, is where yesterday's embroidery is.
To the other side of the screen is the residence, and the Queen Mother seems to have let the door of the next room be pulled open and put together, which makes it more spacious.
But I don't live there very often, so it's already good.
After Aunt Shenyun brought her over, she called on the red leaves and green sleeves to get some things for daily use, Ruyi looked around in these two wings, and found that there were a lot of quaint ornaments in them, she didn't dare to touch them with her hands, so she just stepped forward to take a look.
After looking at it for a while, he sat down in front of the embroidery and carefully pondered where he should start repairing.
Silk threads hang at the ends of the shelves, supple as silk.
Not long after Ruyi arrived in the wing, someone reported her situation to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother raised her eyes and hummed: "Look at it, how is the mourning family?" โ
Mo Yan pursed her lips and smiled: "The Queen Mother is now more and more fond of playing tricks on people, Li promised to be bluffed by you, and almost forgot to salute when she left." โ
The Queen Mother waved her hand: "How can you be so fierce, you are exaggerating!" The mourning family is to remind her, first cold a few days to see, people always have to beat repeatedly to see the nature, just come to the first day, there is no mourning family to give her a good face of the rule, you send someone to look, see what she does every day, after a few days mourning family will call her. โ
Mo Yan shook his head helplessly.
The Queen Mother promised that Qian was always there, and she would take care of Ruyi one or two, and yesterday Ruyi came to her, if she was afraid to shrink, the Queen Mother may not be able to think about it.
is a sentence of 'repay debts, kill people to pay for life, this has been the case since ancient times', which attracted the attention of the queen mother.
Over the years, I thought that the Queen Mother had a lot of concubines who came to serve and obey the rules, and the Queen Mother was troublesome and refused them one by one, these concubines loved to coax her old man to be happy in front of the Queen Mother, but the things she did behind her back were not very bright, and the Queen Mother knew in her heart that she didn't say it, but she still didn't like it after all.
Just such a Li promised, when he came to the Queen Mother, he dared to say whatever he thought in his heart, and the Queen Mother looked at the freshness, and even considered it through this matter.
Mo Yan looked at the drama, most of the good sisters of the Queen Mother in the past went one step ahead of her, and the rest were in the concubine's house, and the Queen Mother did not often go over, so it gradually faded.
Now if there is a young man by her side, presumably the queen mother's mind will be more active, and people will be younger when they look at it, which is a good thing, Mo Yan hopes that Li will be smart and transparent, and he can really have this blessing that ordinary people do not have.
At this time, Ruyi didn't know anything, and he didn't think that his words and deeds had been watched by the people around him.
She looked at the embroidery of Longteng Ziyun and was fascinated, she hadn't used the stitching method of Qingyao for several years, and she sat here for a while, and she didn't think about where to start first.
Don't dare to mess with the things that the Queen Mother cherishes, Ruyi stood up after a long sound, and went to ask the little palace maid outside for a pen and paper, and asked for a clean embroidered handkerchief, sat on the table next to the drawing, first drew a rough picture for himself, and threaded the needle, on this clean embroidered handkerchief first went through the stitch work, delayed for a day, but also to be more sure, Ruyi felt that this was not a waste of time, but for the later efforts to save time, very worthwhile.
Momiji and Green Sleeves moved things and had a backache, and after they came back, they finally didn't have Aunt Shenyun to watch, and Momiji simply sat on the edge of the collapse and hammered his arm.
Seeing that Ruyi was writing and painting seriously, he forced himself to get up and come forward to look.
"What are you drawing? Bugs? So many bugs? You're going to embroider this, huh? Momiji was dumbfounded, and was amazed by Ruyi's painters.
Ruyi was a little embarrassed, but he still had a hard mouth and quibbled: "I'm marking it at random, what kind of bug, this is the golden dragon!" Where do you see it's a bug.,I'm not.ใใ Isn't this still painted with feet and beard? How much like a dragon. โ
The more Ruyi spoke, the more weak her heart became, so she simply put down the handkerchief in her hand, took the rice paper and stood up and shook it, looking at it as she walked, muttering: "It's a dragon." โ
After reading, I saw that I had gone around the screen, so I rolled my eyes, touched the hot ear, and tore the rice paper.
