Concubine Zhou glanced at the emperor's expression, and saw that he didn't show a look on his side, so she continued, "Actually, at the beginning, it was just a joke about a few little palace maids and little eunuchs, but it turned out to be Hui'er listening. ”

Three-year-old child, even if he heard these words, he didn't understand it very well, the emperor glanced at Concubine Zhou, but Concubine Zhou was not in a hurry, "Hui'er is still young, where can I understand so much, but I heard those palace maids and eunuchs mention his five emperor sisters, and sometimes the people next to him don't understand, but the five emperor sisters are still clear, that is, crying, to ask clearly." ”

The emperor answered, changed his posture, and his eyes fell on the Seventh Prince again, "And then." ”

"Who knew that those dead man-like things were actually talking nonsense in front of Hui'er, saying, talking ......"

"You say."

"It is said that the five princes are going to Beiyin to make peace, if they go, I am afraid that they will not see each other in this life. When Hui'er heard it, she didn't know so much, and she cried and said that she wanted the fifth princess, but the five princesses were busy in the past two days, so she didn't come, and Hui'er couldn't wait for the imperial sister, so she thought that she really didn't go back, so she ......."

Concubine Zhou wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "He has accompanied his concubines in this palace since he was a child, and he will feel lonely, it is rare to have a closer imperial sister, and it is not strange to have this today." Your Majesty don't blame him, as long as the concubine talks to him, Hui'er will naturally be able to think about it. ”

Still kneeling for a long time, she felt that her vest was sweating a little, Concubine Zhou's move was a dangerous move, the emperor was not a person who was easy to fool, he had always been suspicious, and he would not take these so-called family affection in his eyes.

Especially the princess who has not been favored for a long time, and the prince of the Seventh Prince, who has never seen him a few times.

She suddenly kowtowed, "This matter is all the fault of the sons, and I ask my father to forgive me." ”

The emperor let out a breath from his nose, which seemed to be a smile, but the cold air in that smile was eerie, and it became more and more terrifying, "Oh? Tell me what you're doing wrong. ”

Chi Chi said, "I was closer to the emperor's brother, and I had a few more words of persuasion, all of which said that I would come to see the emperor's brother again in the near future, but there have been many things recently, but the son's health is not good, and he has come and gone, although there are many reasons, but in the end it is just a prevarication, and it is the son's fault that the emperor's brother is seriously ill." The sons didn't know how to forgive their sins, and after thinking about it, they were willing to go to the Huguo Temple to pray for the emperor's brother, his father, the queen mother, and various mothers, so as to protect the peace and stability of his father's palace. ”

The emperor looked down at the jade wrench in his hand, and then glanced at the sixth prince, the corners of his mouth were like a straight line, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy in a trance, but he didn't dare to look at it anymore, just lowered his head firmly and looked at his skirt.

Concubine Zhou also stopped talking, the two of them had already acted in this role, and now it was up to the emperor's reaction, if he believed everything, it would be impossible, and he was not such a foolish person.

But to say that he didn't believe it at all doesn't seem to be such an exaggeration.

After a long time, I thought that as long as Thak's faith was half, but if there was half, there would be a turning point in this matter.

But he didn't open his mouth for a long time, and when his back stiffened after a while, and he felt that it was estimated that everything was going to be over, the emperor suddenly spoke, "It's not impossible to go and pray for blessings, but your body hasn't been well yet, but now you can go?" ”

The emperor naturally didn't care about her when he said this, he lowered his head for a long time, and his tone was respectful, "Father Xie asked, it's just that the son's body has always risen and fallen over the years, even if there is a doctor's medicine, it doesn't seem to be good, thinking that there may be few Buddha's light shining, if you can go to Huguo Temple this time, maybe you can also ask the Bodhisattva Buddha to take pity on the son's troubled body, maybe he will be cured." ”

Most of the ancients believed in these things, and they knew in their hearts that for this kind of emperor, it was very common to believe in these, otherwise they would not have said that there was a solar term of any size that asked God to thank the Buddha.

Therefore, there is no problem with this passage of delay, listening to the ears of these ancients.

The emperor looked at her for a while, and then relieved, "You accompany your imperial brother in the palace for two days, and when he is better, go to Huguo Temple." ”

Chi Chi kowtowed, "Yes, follow my father's teachings." ”

The Emperor hummed, then stood up and walked past her, all of whom knelt down and said in unison, "Congratulations to Your Majesty." ”

The emperor came out of Concubine Zhou's palace, followed by many eunuchs carrying lanterns.

And the lamp beside him was carried by Lu Cheng himself.

Lu Cheng glanced at the emperor and said softly, "Your Majesty is in a bad mood. ”

The Emperor sighed, "It's not as smooth as I thought, but I didn't expect such a twist and turn." ”

Lu Cheng said, "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and everything you think is the will of heaven, how can it not be smooth." ”

The emperor smiled, "Providence, whether it is providence that makes people or people's hearts are unpredictable, who can know." ”

Lu Cheng lowered his eyes, thinking of what Cao Tingyue said to him that day, this person is as indifferent as an iceberg, even if he has had many contacts in the past few years, he is still very polite, the two were originally fellow villagers, and they must be close, but he didn't have anything to ask him for.

Only this one, only this matter, he opened up to him, but he didn't have any side needs, only said that when His Majesty was wandering, he pulled His Majesty inside.

This is not Lu Cheng's style, he has been serving His Majesty for decades, and if he is cautious and walking on thin ice, it is just to guess His Majesty's mind and choose the most satisfactory answer from it, but now, His Majesty is clear in his heart, that is, he wants these five princesses to go and kiss.

But one or two, they are all trying their best to block it, as many people as there are, there will be many things, and if the points are similar, it is inevitable that the emperor will be suspicious.

Lu Cheng sighed silently, and said, "If Your Majesty doesn't know, then no one knows." The slave thought, Your Majesty doesn't have to worry so much, now that our Chen country is prosperous, there is no one around to provoke the invaders, we have the state of a big country, and it is only right for all countries to come to the court, and everything else is not the right way. ”

The emperor's pace slowed down, and then pointed at him, "You old fox, you have served me for so many years, and you are still so flamboyant. ”

"Your Majesty, how is this a flamboyant tongue, but it is just the shallow insight of a minion."

He accompanied the emperor, and his voice was a little less sharp and a little more gentle in the dark night, "The slave also knows what His Majesty is worried about, but the slave looks, that prince is really not as ordinary as His Majesty looks at, even if we send someone over, it may not be as he wants." He has countless beauties and gold beads, even if the princess wants to come, she can't put it in her eyes, if you want to make friends with Beiyin through him, it may not be true. ”

"I only said that I was good friends with Beiyin, but it was not what I wanted. I ......," the emperor paused suddenly, and then waved his sleeve, "That's it, that's it, let's stop it first." ”

Lu Cheng stopped talking, but he was calculating in his heart, how did Cao Ting know that the emperor would definitely have these entanglements? He is not like a close minister, even if he shows his face in front of the emperor a lot, it is difficult to guess the emperor's mind so easily.

But he took it step by step, and seemed to have seen all these processes for a long time.

Dongchang, Cao Tingyu, he didn't even notice him like this before, Lu Cheng lowered his eyes, and his heart was surging.

On the other side, in Concubine Zhou's palace, the Seventh Prince woke up once, and then fell asleep obediently after drinking the medicine, but there was no struggle and crying when the emperor was there, how well-behaved and well-behaved.

Concubine Zhou got up late, and took her to the next room, only to drive everyone out, sighed and sat on the circle chair.

Her gaze was a little sloppy, as if it fell on Chi Chi's face, and seemed to be scattered in the air casually.

"It's like."

Looking up at her for a long time, Concubine Zhou reluctantly hooked her lips, "You are very similar to your mother." ”

She said Concubine Jing.

Concubine Jing has been in the cold palace for more than ten years, and she can't see her appearance clearly, she is aging too fast, and she doesn't look like the concubines in this harem who are still carefully maintained, so she doesn't know what Concubine Jing looks like for a long time.

Concubine Zhou seemed to be stuck in a memory, "At that time, how beautiful she was, no matter who stood beside her in the harem, she was overshadowed, even if she was the queen of the world, but by her side it seemed to be one percent worse, no one could compare, the real harem pink was colorless." ”

She stared at Chi Chi, her eyes were surging, there were tears at one time, hatred at the other, and later, it was more like gritting her teeth, "But it is said that the emperor's grace is fleeting, she has always known these things, so all she asks for is peace, thunder and rain and dew, all are Jun's grace, she didn't want to fight or rob in the past, but in the end, it was all about those dirty calculations." ”

looked at her for a long time, it turned out to be ...... She and Concubine Jing used to be good friends, so her help today is because of Concubine Jing's face?

However, I always felt that something was wrong.

Concubine Zhou looked at it for a while, "You can also see that I am not favored in this harem, and I have no right to speak in front of His Majesty. You are the child of Sister Jingfei, I have the heart to take care of you, but I can't protect myself. ”

She smiled, "If you want to go to Huguo Temple to pray for blessings, you can escape this catastrophe, and then let's go and see." ”

Chi Chi raised his eyebrows, and suddenly asked her, "Is it because Niang Niang helped me this time because she suddenly remembered the relationship with my mother many years ago?" ”

She asked suddenly, and Concubine Zhou's expression froze, but she couldn't say why.

Concubine Zhou's face was ugly, and she turned around, "It's late at night, Your Royal Highness the Fifth Princess, please go back." ”
