The splendid palace seemed more and more empty because of the quietness, and only the sound of Uncle Jinghuang's orderly breathing echoed for a long time.

The Empress Dowager sat on the side of the little emperor, "The regent has done his best for the country for many years, and now he is in a national crisis, and the regent chooses to retire at this time, which really makes the mourning family embarrassed." ”

Uncle Jing Huang had a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth, "This is not a harem, and the Empress Dowager is not in charge, it is difficult to do it, the Empress Dowager still has to control the government and listen to the government." ”

Leaving no room for the empress dowager's face, the little emperor was already pointing fingers at her, interfering even more, very disgusted, between filial piety, and could not refute it in person. Uncle Jinghuang's rebuke was very much in line with his heart.

The Empress Dowager's face was pale, but she was unwilling to give up, "The regent still has to put the country first, the Qi family has a female first-class adult, and she excels in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, especially chess, which is a must, and the mourning family intends to make her a concubine for you." ”

Uncle Jinghuang stood with his eyebrows condensed, suddenly laughed, indifferent thin lips, sharp contours, and straight nose bridge, all showing unrestrained and unrestrained ease: "The princess of this king has not nodded, why should the queen mother bother, this king's family affairs, there is no need to be bothered by the royal family, and it is the biggest good thing to take care of your own body and bones without problems." ”

"It's just a concubine, and the regent can't be the master, not to mention, your princess, if she doesn't speak correctly, she is not in a good name, but she is married to a Ming media, and she has a jade butterfly in the palace."

"Joke, the princess of this king, since this king admits to take care of it immediately, why do you need these red tape things of the royal family, besides, this king is not a royal person, you are too lenient."

After speaking, he threw his resignation letter at the feet of the little emperor, "This king has made up his mind, and I hope that the emperor will approve it, and don't let the harem interfere in politics, otherwise, even if you are high, you will still be manipulated by others." ”

Uncle Jinghuang's contempt for the Empress Dowager, and the fact that she brushed her sleeves away, made her hate to step forward and stop her personally, but unfortunately, her status was noble, and she couldn't afford to lose face.

"Your Majesty, I heard that you stopped Concubine Yin's shunzi soup today?"

"Not only does the imperial grandmother stretch her hand long enough, but she even hears far away with her ears, which makes me a little embarrassed."

"Isn't it up to me to decide the reproduction of royal heirs. No matter who Concubine Yin was before, she will be a real woman in the future, and her son will also be a real prince. ”

The little emperor took a few steps down the steps of the palace and walked out, ignoring even Uncle Jinghuang's resignation.

The air pressure in the Qi family's study is very low, Qi Shangshu has a sad face, and the concubine has not had time to send it, but she was rejected by Uncle Jinghuang, and the princess of the family is back, he is going to send a concubine, the queen mother is really nosy.

After Qi Yanhong went down to the court, he came to the study and told Uncle Jing about his resignation, and also said that the little emperor had already been gracious, but the empress dowager had been making trouble for a while, and the most critical issue was the departure of the eldest prince.

This morning's affairs in the harem, they have already gotten the news, Concubine Qi can't count on it, if the eldest prince loses it again, I'm afraid that all the work will be wasted.

"Father, when the son came back, he met the people from the Tai Hospital, and they muttered in private, the emperor asked Concubine Yin's child avoidance soup to stop, and the emperor also said that if Concubine Yin can get a man in one fell swoop, Nan Shengguo will have a new heir, and the crown prince will be about to come out."

Qi Shangshu suddenly raised his head, the position of the prince, and the next position is the position of the queen. Concubine Qi is dull, although she is far from the queen's position, she gives people a head start, and she is somewhat unwilling.

"Let Qi Miao come over."

Qi Miao is a concubine, and she is also the youngest of the Qi family, her biological mother was not born high, and she has relied on Qi Shangshu to live all these years.

Qi Miao has been smart since childhood, knows how to observe words and feelings, and judges the situation. When she first entered the palace, Qi Shangshu was interested in her, but Qi Miao was reluctant to enter the palace, so she moved her mind and let the concubine of the Qi family break into front of the little emperor in a daze, and there was a later Concubine Qi.

"I've seen my father, big brother." Qi Miao's demeanor is proper, and her appearance can be regarded as outstanding, but her temperament is dull, and Qi Yanhong frowned slightly.

This sister-in-law is not of the same mind as them, and her father is helpless to use her, after all, among the three sisters-in-law, only Qi Miao can handle it.

"Miao'er, I remember what my husband told you a few days ago."

"Father, daughter remembers, but, like the regent's palace, the daughter thinks that it may not be possible."

"Oh, what do you think?"

"The regent is not a woman, so many years of pure heart and few desires, it can be seen that he is infatuated with the princess, and now that his wife and daughter have returned, the father sends his daughter into the house, which is contrary to the regent's infatuation, so the daughter enters the regent's palace, which is not only unfavorable to the relationship between the two families, but also prone to conflicts."

With this opinion, Qi Shangshu had to look at Qi Miao highly, much stronger than Concubine Qi, "If you are really smart, you enter the palace today, accompany your sister, remember, persuade her, don't do anything inappropriate, as for the eldest prince, her husband will find a way to let her be a little restless." ”

Walking out of the study, Qi Miao's face became ugly, her father just used them as chess pieces, lingering away, calling them to come, and being unkind, so that she had to find a way out for herself in advance.

In the palace of the regent, the king of Jin and the king of war sat opposite each other, and the arrival of Mo Zhuoche was unexpected by the king of Jin.

"Fourth brother, I've been here for many days, but I can't enter the Witch Gu Gate for a long time, and the Five Elements Bagua Array there has been tried many times, but I can't get started." The amount of ink stood aside, and his white hair was covered, which was really uncomfortable to look at.

King Jin instructed Dark One to go down to rest with the amount of ink, "At such an age, it's really hard for him to follow you around." ”

The king of war sighed softly, he was brave and good at fighting on the battlefield, and the majestic god of war was now like a frosted eggplant, very decadent.

"We are going to follow Uncle Jing Huang to the Witch Gu Gate tomorrow, and the worship post has already been sent, just in case, let's stay today, and we will set off from the Regent Mansion tomorrow, it is not easy to make the eyes of the Witch Gu Gate suspicious."

"Thank you, fourth brother, I let people inform Zhu Rancheng."

"Let him pretend to be a little guy and enter the mansion, follow him tomorrow, don't go to the amount of ink, let him wait for news in the palace, there are many people, and it is easy to be calculated by the witch gate, we are in other people's territory, and we are more or less restrained."

The brothers agreed, and the War King got up and left. Qing'er walked out from behind the screen, "Mu Qing and the War King will cry with joy when they reunite after a long absence." ”

King Jin stretched out his hand to wrap his hand around Qing'er's waist and tapped her nose, "Why, I also want to be separated from this king, don't think about it." ”

Qing'er hummed lightly, the man with a small belly and chicken intestines is like this, he always looks at her to death, as if she can grow wings and fly, not to mention, she is willing to stay by his side, husband and wife are of the same heart, and they live and fly together. Reading the Book House

The pale golden sunlight poured into the room through the thick layer of Korean paper, adding a little warmth to the spacious room.

Mingyue followed Mu Qing to read a book, and now that Mingyue likes to stay with Mu Qing more and more, Mingjiang has saved a lot of thought, so he doesn't have to keep staring.

"I heard that Uncle Jing Huang is coming to visit the high priest tomorrow, and his mysterious princess. You don't know, it's crazy outside, Uncle Jinghuang's daughter is actually the princess of Jin in Mexico, they all have to come, and the purpose is definitely not simple. ”

Mingyue said with relish, Mu Qing raised her head, "Qing'er is coming, she is my close friend, so naturally I can't rest assured." ”

Being able to see Qing'er in a foreign country, Mu Qing suddenly began to look forward to tomorrow's arrival, which somewhat made Mingyue a little surprised, "Why, I'm not your close friend anymore." ”

"Count, you are too, you and Qing'er are my friends."

Mingyue smiled mysteriously: "You said that Uncle Jinghuang's princess will look so beautiful, don't you know, Uncle Jinghuang is a benchmark for men in Nansheng Kingdom, and many ladies are worried about it, but unfortunately, Uncle Jinghuang has not married for so many years, even if his princess is missing." ”

"Missing?"

"Well, legend has it that more than ten years ago, Uncle Jing Huang wanted to marry a wife, but suddenly received an edict from the emperor, and had to return to the palace, but what happened in the middle, outsiders don't know, I also heard from my father, Uncle Jing Huang had a dispute with the emperor, and then when he rushed back, his princess jumped off the cliff for so many years."

"According to legend, his princess is Murong Ling'er, a talented woman in the Mexican Kingdom, and she must be a great beauty who captivates the country and the city."

"Click" The book in Mu Qing's hand slipped to the ground, Murong Ling'er, isn't that her biological mother, if what Mingyue said is true, her biological father is Uncle Jinghuang, no wonder he is so attentive to Qing'er, it turns out that this is the reason.

Obviously, she looked at Mu Qing's gentle words and smiled like a flower, but why did Mingyue look at it, she only felt a slight coldness in her heart.

Although the four seasons of Nansheng are like spring, there is still a lot of rain in this season, just like the south of Mexico.

Towards noon, the sky was dark, and there were large dark clouds hanging in the sky, as if a tangible black net covered the whole world, blocking all light.

The wind swept, the heavy rain poured down, the pedestrians on the road hurriedly found a place to shelter from the rain, the footsteps were chaotic, the driver of the car shook the whip vigorously, the horse "neighed" in pain, raised his hooves and splashed the mud all over his body.

Qi Miaomu sat in the carriage in a daze, listening to the sound of the rain outside, thinking about how to get out of the palace this time, her father, Master Qi must have a plan, otherwise, he would not let her enter the palace for no reason.

Concubine Qi cried endlessly in the palace, accompanied by the camel bell silently, in addition, they did not have the ability to reach the sky, how could they make the emperor change his mind.

The Empress Dowager's decree, Qi Miao entered the palace, and naturally no one dared to stop her. Ignoring the pouring rain outside, she insisted on coming to greet the Queen Mother.

The palace maid wearing a purple waist-pinching summer shirt, holding a glass lamp in her hand, hurriedly walked through the verandah, spared a rockery pool, and finally turned into a courtyard in the west.

Qi Miao followed closely, although he held up the umbrella, his body was still a lot wet, and the imperial doctor looked embarrassed in and out, and a strong smell of medicine came to his face.

Picking up the curtain of the side room, Qi Miao raised her eyes to look, the Queen Mother closed her eyes and recuperated, she hurriedly walked a few steps forward and saluted: "Slave Qi Miao, please say hello to the Queen Mother, I wish the Queen Mother good health, and smile." ”

It is considered to be a knowledgeable person, the Queen Mother slowly opened her eyes, and her eyes lit up in an instant, this girl is full of heaven, her eyes are bright, like she can speak, her nose is straight, her cherry mouth is small, and her skin is as fair as the best mutton fat white jade.

"It's raining so hard outside, why did you come here, please be safe, it's the same tomorrow when the weather is fine."

The Empress Dowager didn't say to get up, Qi Miao was half-arched, neither humble nor arrogant, maintaining this posture, "The Empress Dowager is gracious, let the slave maid enter the palace to accompany her sister, this kindness, the slave maid is grateful to Dade, so naturally she has to thank her first." ”

"It's a sensible child. The eldest prince is sick, and the mourning family is not at ease, the weather is really bad. ”

"The Empress Dowager cherishes the eldest prince, that is the blessing of the child, but if it hurts the queen mother's phoenix body, it will break the slave maid, the empress dowager, it is better to be guarded by the slave and maid here, if it is not appropriate, I will definitely go back to the empress dowager as soon as possible."

Reasonable, well-founded, and decent, the Empress Dowager looked at Qi Miao more and more.

Before evening, the sky was gloomy and terrible, and the cold air brought by the rain blew into the house from time to time, causing the eldest prince to choke for a while.

Qi Miao ordered to light a charcoal stove, and used a smoke cover, and in the time of half a pillar of incense, the house was warm and dissipated a lot of cold.

Qi Miao carefully looked at the eldest prince in his sleep, the palace is not as good as the outside, the palace rules are strict, since the birth of the eldest prince, this is the first time the aunt and nephew have met.

Although the child is sick, the meat dimples on his cheeks are still there, which is quite cute. Qi Miao changed a handkerchief for the child, reached out and touched his forehead, and the temperature seemed to have dropped a little.

The sound of mixed footsteps, mixed with a cold air, rushed towards him, Qi Miao didn't catch up with him, and a bright yellow figure had already arrived at the bedside.

"Please forgive the emperor, the slave doesn't know that the emperor has arrived."

The rain seems to have never stopped in the past few days, and the little emperor was upset after reading the recital in the imperial study, and he came here unconsciously.

The smell on Qi Miao's body is very good, the aroma is light, but there is a bit of a sweet charm: "Which palace are you from?" ”

"The slave maid is Qi Miao, the concubine of Concubine Qi, who was ordered by the Empress Dowager to enter the palace to accompany her sister, and just now I asked the Empress Dowager for peace, so she was left here to take care of the eldest prince."

The little prince muttered Qi Miao's name in his mouth, this woman saw him, her attitude and demeanor were generous, there was no trace of panic, let alone cramped, she was a courageous person.

"Get up, the eldest prince has you to take care of, and I will go back for the time being." When I went out, I turned around and glanced at Qimiao, and the afterglow of my eyes carried a touch of intriguing.

Gonggong Li has been by his side for many years, and he knows that the emperor just fell in love with Qi Miao, and Qi Shangshu Bacheng is with such wishful thinking, thinking of Concubine Qi's arrogance, Gonggong Li's brain hurts, and he can't come to such an unclear thing anymore.
