In the most gorgeous queen mother's bedroom in the depths of the nine-fold palace, the queen mother, who was originally sitting on the main seat and was drinking tea, listened to the words of the people below, put the teacup on the table heavily, and many water droplets splashed on the back of the queen mother's hand, but the queen mother didn't care at all, just frowned and asked, "What did you say?" The fox went to search the post yesterday and punished the messenger a little? ”

"Yes, it seems to be for the woman Lin Kite." The masked guard under the throne replied respectfully.

The Queen Mother got up suddenly, slapped one hand heavily on the table, and said, "Confused, how could the fox do this!" As the palm of his hand fell, the tea that had just returned to calm instantly rippled again.

At this moment, the grandmother who was originally guarding the door knocked lightly, pushed the door in, and said respectfully: "Queen Mother, the messenger asks to see?" ”

"Emissary?" The Queen Mother sat back on the main seat, thinking, and a finger tapped regularly on the table, making a "da-da-da" sound.

The grandmother and the secret guard at the bottom are the henchmen of the Queen Mother, so they naturally know that the Queen Mother is thinking about things like this, so they are all standing aside and waiting quietly.

In the empty dormitory, only the sound of regular banging on the table can be heard, "dadada......".

After a while, the sound of banging on the table stopped, and the voice of the Queen Mother came: "Mama, you go and bring a pair of bracelets made of blood jade from my collection, and then send someone to invite the messenger in." ”

"Yes, the old slave will go now." Saying that, Mama blessed herself and went down.

The Queen Mother then said to the dark guard: "You continue to stay with the fox, and report any situation immediately." ”

"Yes, the subordinates retired." As he spoke, the Dark Guard vanished.

Just now, a palace maid came in with a messenger, and Mama also took things and stood aside.

"See the Queen Mother." The messenger saluted and said.

The Queen Mother raised her hand, pointed to the second seat and said, "The envoy doesn't have to be polite, please take a seat." ”

Seeing that the envoy got up, walked to the seat and sat down, the Queen Mother continued: "I don't know what happened to the envoy coming to visit this time?" ”

"I came to visit this time to ask the Queen Mother for an explanation."

"Oh, what did the messenger say? It's so confusing. "The Queen Mother naturally knew why the envoy came, but she just pretended not to know.

Looking at such a queen mother, the envoy sneered in his heart, how could he not see that the queen mother was playing dumb riddles with him, but he didn't break it: "The emperor searched the post station at night, shouldn't he give me an explanation?" ”

"What, there is such a thing, and the mourning family doesn't know at all." As he spoke, he pretended to be angry and slapped it on the table.

Seeing this, the grandmother on the side hurriedly comforted: "The Queen Mother is angry, don't be angry." ”

Looking at the master and servant who sang and sang on the main seat, the envoy didn't say anything, just watched quietly, waiting for the queen mother's reply.

After the Queen Mother "calmed down" a little, she waved her hand to interrupt Mama's words, and continued: "I wonder if the messenger can tell the mourning family the ins and outs of the matter?" ”

"Naturally." The messenger smiled and explained the ins and outs of the matter.

The Queen Mother saw the envoy's dissatisfaction with Fox Jiu from the envoy's eyes, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily raised, but she quickly retracted.

"That being the case, the mourning family should indeed give the envoy an explanation, the mourning family has a pair of bracelets made of blood jade for Ling Mei, just as the mourning family will make a compensation for the emperor, and I will definitely talk about the Pope when I look back, and I hope that the envoy and Ling Mei don't care." As she spoke, the Queen Mother glanced at the grandmother standing aside.

After receiving the signal from the Queen Mother, Mama took the bracelet she had just taken out and brought it to the messenger.

The messenger didn't shirk it, reached out to take it, opened the box and took a look, it was a pair of blood jade bracelets, which showed that the queen mother had made a lot of money.

"The queen mother's mind was accepted under the order, and she and Ling Mei would not bother with the emperor about this matter."

After two glances, the envoy covered the box and put it on the table beside him, and continued: "I can't hide it, there is still a matter of entering the palace to visit the Queen Mother today, I don't know whether to talk about it or not." ”

The Queen Mother made a gesture of invitation and said, "Messenger, please speak." ”

"It can be seen that the Queen Mother has some opinions on the emperor, and she coincides with the Queen Mother below, I don't know if she can reach cooperation with the Queen Mother, and the purpose of cooperation is naturally power." The envoy naturally saw that the Queen Mother intended to be friendly with him, so he naturally said something.

The Queen Mother didn't expect the envoy to be so direct, and was obviously stunned for a moment, but she came back to her senses in an instant and said with a smile: "The envoy is refreshing, the mourning family agreed to this matter, and we will be allies in the future." ”

"It's really an honor to be an ally with the Queen Mother." The messenger stood up and bowed his hand.

"Envoy, please sit down, I will not be a grasshopper on a rope in the future, and I will have to discuss more things."

"That's nature." The messenger did not shirk and sat down.

The Queen Mother thought of the conversation with the emperor a few days ago, and said: "The mourning family intends to let Ling Mei enter the palace as the imperial concubine, I don't know what the envoy's opinion is?" ”

When the envoy heard this, he pondered for a moment, he knew in his heart that it was not bad to let his sister enter the palace as the imperial concubine, first, he could break her thoughts about Zhao Yun, and secondly, he could help himself become a great thing.

Seeing that the messenger was pondering, the Queen Mother did not urge, but slowly tasted the tea in the teacup.

"It is Ling Mei's honor to be the imperial concubine, and I will arrange it after I go back, and the emperor will hand it over to the queen mother." The messenger thought for a moment.

The Queen Mother smiled, put down the teacup in her hand and said, "That's natural, this matter is wrapped up in the mourning family." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and continued to discuss some plans to seize power, and after a long time, the messenger saw that the hour was not early, and he got up and took his leave.

As soon as the messenger left, the Queen Mother pulled down her smiling face and instructed her grandmother: "Call the emperor to the mourning family." ”

Mama blessed her body, didn't say anything, and retreated.

Soon, Jiuhu came to the queen mother's bedroom, he saluted the queen mother, looked at the queen mother with a straight face, and asked: "Why does the queen mother have a straight face, but who made the queen mother unhappy?" ”

The Queen Mother snorted coldly and said, "Fox, you are embarrassed to say, but you should tell the mourning family, what is going on with your night search station?" ”

"Mother, I can't ignore the messenger who tied up my friend......"

"Ridiculous!" The Queen Mother interrupted Hu Jiu's words and said, "You are a dignified emperor, and you don't think about the consequences when you do things, do you want to provoke a war between the two countries for a woman?" Let your people suffer because of a woman? ”

Listening to the Queen Mother's words, Jiuhu felt unbelievable, and couldn't believe that this was what his mother said, he shook his head and said, "Queen Mother, Erchen feels that if Erchen can't even protect his friends, he is not worthy of being this emperor." ”

"But ......" The Queen Mother still wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Jiuhu's opening.

"The queen mother doesn't need to say much, and the son doesn't feel that he did something wrong in this matter."

"It's okay, just don't be too impulsive in the future." The Queen Mother waved her hand and said, "The mourning family called you over today not only for this matter, but also for your marriage to the envoy's sister. ”

As soon as he heard the queen mother talk about his marriage, Jiuhu felt that his head was about to get bigger, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said coldly: "Queen Mother, Erchen has already said before, and there is no plan to establish a concubine, if there is, Erchen will definitely inform the Queen Mother." ”

"Fox, I can't let you do it this time, the marriage event pays attention to the words of the matchmaker of your parents, even if you are the emperor, you are also the son of the mourning family, if you don't agree, you are not filial, and the mourning family will immediately die here." Seeing that Jiuhu did not agree, the Queen Mother pointed to a pillar in the palace and said.

How did Jiuhu know that the Queen Mother would say this, her whole face immediately darkened, stared at the Queen Mother's eyes and said, "Queen Mother, do you really want to threaten your sons like this?" ”

"Seriously, the mourning family will definitely do what they say." The Queen Mother turned her head and said firmly.

Looking at such a queen mother, Jiuhu said helplessly: "Okay, Erchen promised to marry the envoy's sister as a concubine, but Erchen was tired and retired first." As he spoke, he didn't listen to what the Queen Mother said later, and bowed and retired.

"Stand down, I want to go by myself." Jiuhu, who was forced to marry, was very irritable, dismissed the people around him, and walked towards the imperial garden.

Looking at his favorite flower in the past, Jiuhu couldn't even raise his interest at all.

Jiuhu was helpless, raised his hand and rubbed his temples, turned around and was about to go back to the palace, but after turning around, he saw Zhao Yun picking flowers in the imperial garden.

"Zhao Yun, what are you doing?" Jiuhu was puzzled, and he didn't know what Zhao Yun was doing when he picked flowers.

Zhao Yun, who originally lowered his head to pick flowers, heard someone call him, so he raised his head and looked at the person who came.

Seeing that the person who came was Jiuhu, Zhao Yun smiled, raised the bouquet in his hand and said, "Pick some flowers to make a bouquet, the kite likes it." ”

Jiuhu, who was standing in place, ate a handful of dog food unexpectedly, and couldn't help but think of the queen mother's forced marriage to herself, and sighed deeply.

"What's wrong with you, why are you sad and sighing?" Zhao Yun naturally saw that something was wrong with Jiuhu, and asked.

"It won't be long before I marry the messenger's sister as a concubine."

"What? Why are you going to marry the sister of the messenger? Zhao Yun was surprised and asked two questions in a row.

"Hey......" Jiuhu sighed and turned to leave, leaving only Zhao Yun with an surprised face.

Zhao Yun couldn't figure out why Jiuhu wanted to marry the envoy's sister, so he simply didn't want to think about it.

He knew that Jiuhu naturally had his reasons for doing this, and he should do his own thing with peace of mind.

So, Zhao Yun buried his head again, picking flowers and making bouquets with peace of mind.

At this time, Lin Yuan was talking to the Holy Maiden in the Holy Maiden's Mansion about some trivial matters, and was not by Zhao Yun's side.

"Holy Maiden, how is the production of Gu poison?" Lin Yuan was about to go back to the palace, when he thought of the business of coming to the Holy Maiden's Mansion today, and asked again.

The saint hooked the corners of her lips, nodded Lin Kite's head with her finger, and said with a smile: "You, you, you, you have been here for so long to remember what to do, I really don't know what to say about you." ”

Lin Kite stuck out her tongue, looking like someone had bullied her.

"The Gu poison is almost finished." The saint shook her head and said helplessly.

"That's good." Lin Yuan said with a smile.

……

However, Lin Kite's outing has brought opportunities for some people.

In the room of the envoy's sister in the post station, a maid said to the envoy's sister: "Miss, there is news from the eyeliner outside the palace that Miss Lin has just left the palace. ”

After listening to the maid's words, the eyes of the messenger's sister suddenly lit up, she raised her hand and touched her face, and asked, "Am I looking good today, do I have makeup." ”

"Miss looks good every day, and the makeup is also very good, which is very suitable for Miss." The maid said sweetly.

The envoy's sister nodded with satisfaction, looked at the maid in front of her, couldn't help but appreciate a little, and said, "Let's go, you accompany me into the palace to find Zhao Gongzi." With that, he went out first.

"Yes." The maid nodded, and obediently followed behind the messenger's sister.

As soon as she entered the palace, the envoy's sister inquired all the way about Zhao Yun's location.

After learning that Zhao Yun was in the Imperial Garden, he hurried over, but he never expected to see such a dazzling scene.

Watching Zhao Yun bury his head in carefully selecting flowers, then picking them carefully, and finally making them into bouquets, the messenger's sister naturally knew who it was made for, and she couldn't help but feel bitter in her heart.
