Chapter 2: Stepping into the East Palace
Although she grew up in the palace since she was a child, she has never been to the East Palace, when the fourth brother was the prince, the fourth brother didn't like her, so she didn't go to the fourth brother to get in front of the eyes, and when the seventh brother was the prince, she was under house arrest in Yinxiao Pavilion, and even the invitation was exempted, and the door could not be opened. Later, her attitude softened, and she could only go around the back garden of her palace, and she still couldn't get out of the palace gate.
Xiao Jingning smiled bitterly in her heart, she never imagined that the place she had never set foot in once would be the place where she stayed the most in the future except for Zhengyang Palace, because here lived the son of this body, the crown prince Xiao Yuanshi.
Under Su Ying's guidance, Xiao Jingning didn't stop a step, and stepped directly into the gate of the East Palace, looking at the little face with vague eyebrows and eyes of the seventh brother respectfully saluting herself, she suddenly felt a trance in front of her, but only for a moment, she said, "Get up." ”
Xiao Yuanshi stood up when he heard this, and after Su Ying helped Xiao Jingning sit down, Xiao Yuanshi went to the place where he usually sat and sat down, there were a few folds on the desk, he took a book and looked at it seriously, and quietly raised his eyes from time to time to peek at Xiao Jingning, but he was always caught by those eyes that seemed to be smiling, and quickly turned back his eyes, looking at the fold in his hand, so many times, Xiao Yuanshi's ears turned red, he always felt that today's queen mother seemed to be a little different, as if it was not so strict? If he wants to put it on hold, the queen mother will have to scold him for not studying politics well.
Xiao Jingning looked at the little expression that was struggling and tangled on the little face that was very similar to Seventh Brother silently, and secretly changed this face with Seventh Brother, almost wanting to burst out laughing, but she just pulled the corners of her mouth slightly, "Yuan Shi." ”
It was a very light sound, but it scared Xiao Yuanshi so much that he immediately straightened up, and looked at the fold with a small face.
Xiao Jingning got up and walked to the desk, stretched out his hand and took out the fold, folded it and put it back in the fold pile, "Yuanshi, you haven't recovered from your illness yet, and now you don't have much energy, you can't work hard, these folds will not be tightened first." ”
The excerpts that can be sent to this prince who has just learned how to deal with political affairs are all folds that have already been dealt with or are not important, so Xiao Jingning doesn't care if something happens at all, besides, Su Ying came to report that the prince refused to lie down and rest, but as soon as she came, she hurriedly ran to turn over the folds...... Ruolan ...... Look what you scared your son out of.
"Queen Mother......" Xiao Yuanshi looked incredulous, when did the Queen Mother speak so well? Well, at this time, he remembered that compared with his body, the queen mother seemed to be more worried about his body, he had just caught a cold and didn't want to lie down, it must have been Aunt Su Ying who made a small report to the queen mother, so he looked at Su Ying with some grievances, and his face was full of accusations.
Su Ying's little expression when she received Xiao Yuanshi's accusation, the corners of her mouth quietly raised, and she bowed her head slightly to Xiao Yuanshi......
"Okay, don't look at Su Ying, is there anything wrong with her situation?" Xiao Jingning was adored by that cute expression, he had never seen such a vivid expression just by looking at Seventh Brother with a serious face before, and crying in front of Concubine Jing...... Haha, I unconsciously put Yuan Shi on Brother Seven, you can't blame Jing Ning, Brother Seven, who made you look so similar from generation to generation......
Suppressing the thought of wanting to play a prank, Xiao Jingning rubbed Xiao Yuanshi's little head, "You, since you don't want to lie down, it's okay to get up and walk, but you should pay attention to keeping warm and cold." ”
Xiao Yuanshi breathed a sigh of relief, his heart that was pounding just now was also normal, touching the head that had just been rubbed by Xiao Jingning and laughing silly, the queen mother hadn't touched his head so gently for a long time, his heart was cheering, and suddenly his eyes lit up, since the queen mother is so easy to talk today, can you invite Brother Pingjing into the palace to play? Eh, it's getting dark today, so let's do it tomorrow, so he thought he was very secretive and secretly glanced at Xiao Jingning's face, well, he shouldn't be angry...... Right?
"Queen Mother!" Xiao Yuanshi hugged Xiao Jingning's hand and coquettishly, "Queen Mother, Erchen wants Brother Pingjing, can I let Brother Pingjing accompany Erchen tomorrow?"
Hearing this, Xiao Jingning put away her smile when she looked at Xiao Yuanshi, she lowered her eyes and thought about how to talk to Xiao Yuanshi about Xiao Pingjing, she didn't speak for a while, Xiao Yuanshi was anxious, thinking that Xiao Jingning was angry again, he couldn't help but be a little depressed, he looked at Xiao Jingning's face, shook her hand and begged: "Queen Mother, you just promise Erchen, don't worry, I'll let Brother Pingjing wait outside, Erchen will wake up and call him in, I won't delay resting, okay......"
Xiao Jingning's thoughts were pulled back by him, looking at the nervous expression, Xiao Jingning sighed, withdrew his hand and put it on Xiao Yuanshi's head, and looked at his eyes, "Yuanshi, it's not that the queen mother won't let you see it, it's just that now your brother Pingjing has fallen into someone else's trap, and now he is in the prison, so he can't come to accompany you." ”
"What...... What?" Xiao Yuanshi was shocked when he heard this, and then grabbed Xiao Jingning's hand and begged, "Queen Mother, since you know that it is a trap, there must be a way to save Brother Pingjing, right?"
"Yuanshi, you sit down first, and the queen mother will talk to you." After Xiao Jingning watched Xiao Yuanshi sit down, she walked to the place where she was sitting before and sat down with Su Ying's help.
"Yuan Shi, you have been in poor health since you were a child, and the queen mother has been worried, protecting you like an eyeball, even if you cough, the queen mother can't wait to turn over the hospital."
Xiao Yuanshi was anxious about his brother Pingjing, but he had to sit and listen to Xiao Jingning talking about these old things, but these ...... The Queen Mother had never said it before, so he didn't speak, he listened quietly, he always knew that although the Queen Mother was strict with him, she really treated him as if he were her life......
"In the past, the queen mother always had a nightmare, dreaming that your father was not good, and he left us and his mother, and dreamed of ...... I dreamed that the Changlin Palace, which your father had always favored, suddenly turned swords at us, and our mother and son died. ”
"Uncle Huang, they won't!" Xiao Yuanshi hurriedly defended the Changlin Palace, Uncle Huang is so good, Brother Pingzhang and Brother Pingjing are so good, so they won't face each other with swords, "Changlin Palace......"
"So the queen mother said it was a nightmare," Xiao Jingning raised his hand to stop Xiao Yuanshi's defense, "It used to be the queen mother's magic barrier, and the Changlin Royal Mansion accompanied His Majesty all the way, and the queen mother has also had a lot of contact with them over the years, and the queen mother believes in their loyalty." ”
"However, it is useless for His Majesty Guang to believe that it is useless for our mother to believe." Xiao Jingning calmly analyzed the situation of Changlin Wangfu to Xiao Yuanshi, although Xiao Yuanshi is still young, but with Xiao Xin's body, it is difficult to say how long he can last, if he feels sorry for his youth now, then once there is a case, Xiao Yuanshi, who doesn't know anything, sits in that supreme position like this, then it will be a disaster for the country and him.
