In the Queen Mother's Yongshou Palace, there seemed to be no sound, and more than a dozen palace maids stood upright at the door, breathing lightly and imperceptibly.

After thinking about entering the door, I saw that the Queen Mother was lying on the small collapse and closed her eyes to recuperate, and an older one was beside her, gently helping her press her forehead, from the center of her eyebrows to her temples, the force was even and gentle, and it never stopped.

The palace maid who led Yousi into the door made a silent gesture towards Yousi, and then didn't seem to want to wake up the queen mother, and quietly stood aside.

Yousi didn't make a sound, before entering the palace, Lian Shu told her that the rules of entering the palace are big, and you must always pay attention to it, so Yousi turned his head and looked around, looking at the flowers, plants, golden bottles and jade placed in the palace of the Queen Mother, which are more numerous than in Zhao Zhao's room.

After standing for a while, the other party still didn't mean to wake up, so he paced and looked in the room, looked left and right, and there were a lot of rare things, one of which was a pair of crystal carved birds that were particularly vivid and cute, I don't know what the principle, and they kept shaking their heads.

You Si felt strange, so he stretched out his finger and touched it lightly, but he knew that the bird was extremely fragile, and it shook a few times, fell to the ground with a snap, and broke into several petals.

Looking at the broken birds on the ground, Yousi was still stunned, then he heard a pop, and an extremely disdainful laugh reached his ears, and the queen mother, who was lying down and resting, did not open her eyes, and said to the maid beside her: "Mama Liu, do you see it, the country girl just doesn't understand the rules, not only does not come to ask me for peace, but also has no knowledge." ”

After thinking about it, I thought that the other party was disgusted that she dropped the bird, and hurriedly said: "How much is your bird worth, can I compensate you?" ”

Who knew that as soon as these words were said, the whole room began to laugh and think, and the grandmother who pressed her forehead for the Queen Mother smiled disdainfully: "What are you talking about, did the Queen Mother send you those silver?" ”

"Okay, isn't it just a bird, what is there to lose?" As she spoke, the Queen Mother pretended to be generous and sat up, raised her eyes and glanced at Yousi, as if she didn't really look into her eyes, reached out to take the tea handed by the maid, took a sip, and asked, "The emperor has been pampering you for days, is that you?" ”

Yousi couldn't react for a while, but after ignoring the meaning of his words, he nodded and said, "It's me." ”

Such a refreshing response, the disdain in the queen mother's eyes was even stronger, but she held her own shelf and said in a tone of respect for her elders: "The emperor is not young anymore, and it is not uncommon to be lucky to have a palace maid, I was a mother who missed him less, and now there is no one in the harem who is in charge, and I should also make a marriage for him. ”

"I've been with him all the time, and if he leaves me, he won't be able to sleep well." ”

"Bold!" The queen mother threw the teacup in her hand on the table, the tea overflowed, spilled on the table, and the startled grandmother who was waiting on the side hurriedly took the queen mother's hand and looked at it carefully.

"When you enter the harem, you must have the rules of the harem! Even the queen can't say this, the emperor wants to care about the society, how can you be confused by a woman? Now that the new queen has not been established, you girl has been with the emperor, I am afraid that after the queen enters the East Palace, you have such a domineering temperament, you are to be pampered and proud! You must know that if you are divided into parts, you can still be a permanent presence, if you don't know what to do, the mourning family will knock you out of the palace, and you will never want to see the emperor! ”

Yousi was also angry, gritted his teeth and said, "Why do you care about the matter between me and Zhao Zhao?" ”

When the grandmother who was waiting on the side heard this, she pointed to Yousi and shouted: "Bold! How dare you call the emperor by his name! ”

After all, the Queen Mother is the Queen Mother, and her bearing is slightly more stable than that grandmother, and she snorted coldly: "Although the Mourning family is not the emperor's biological mother, it is often theorized that it can be regarded as the emperor's aunt, since the Mourning family is the queen mother, she can take care of the emperor's affairs and your affairs!" ”

Thinking about it, he was just about to quarrel with the queen mother, when he heard the hurried footsteps outside the door approaching, and the palace maids at the door knelt down and saluted: "See the emperor." ”

"The Queen Mother." Zhao Zhao entered the door, first saluted the Queen Mother, and then stood beside Yousi, and said to the Queen Mother: "Yousi is straightforward and fast-talking, and I hope that the Queen Mother will not be blamed." ”

When the Queen Mother saw Zhao Zhao, her face softened a little, and she said aggrievedly: "Emperor, the mourning family was carried to the position of the Queen Mother by you with the light of your sister, but in the end, she is still looked down upon." ”

Zhao Zhao's face was calm, and he said: "The queen mother has loved her son since she was a child, so she naturally deserves it. ”

The Queen Mother stretched out her hand, pointed at Yousi and said, "She ......"

"I think that my son has the grace to save his life, and I hope that the queen mother will be magnanimous."

The Queen Mother looked at Zhao Zhao's resolute and protective attitude, and no longer continued to dwell on Yousi, and only said earnestly: "Emperor, you have been on the throne for some days, the mourning family is old, and you have no energy to take care of so many things, in your harem, there should be someone in charge, I have discussed it with Uncle Guo, your cousin Wei Xian is dignified and gentle, knowledgeable, and beautiful, and she is the best candidate for the queen." ”

Zhao Zhao raised his eyes and glanced at the Queen Mother, and said in a deep voice: "Queen Mother, this matter is not in a hurry, you can discuss it later." ”

The Queen Mother wanted to strike while the iron was hot and say a few more words, but when she saw that Zhao Zhao's eyes were cold, she was not too tough, so she said: "Then the emperor will decide as soon as possible, this is a big deal, but you have to think about it." ”

"My son knows." As he spoke, Zhao Zhao took a few steps out of the Queen Mother's bedroom.

As soon as he walked out of the house, Yousi shook off Zhao Zhao's hand a little angrily, crossed his waist and said, "Why does she want to talk about me, why don't you let me reason with the old woman!" ”

"Thoughtful." Zhao Zhao shouted, and his tone was unconcealably gentle.

Yousi tried his best to swallow his anger, pulled his face and asked, "What do you want me to do?" ”

Zhao Zhao took thoughtful hands again, "I'll take you somewhere." ”

Thinking and curious, he obediently followed Zhao Zhao, and walked around the high palace walls for a long time before stopping in front of an inconspicuous house.

Zhao Zhao gently opened the door and went in, Yousi also followed, looked around, and puzzled: "What is here?" ”

"This is where my mother lived when she died."

After thinking about it, he thought about the meaning of the Queen Mother's words before, and said, "Is it your biological mother?" ”

"Yes." Zhao Zhao nodded, found the steps, and pulled Yousi to sit down. "Do you know why I'm a big man with sugar in my arms?"

You Si said: "I used to think that you loved to eat, but then I felt that it was not." ”

"Because my mother loves to eat."

As soon as you heard that Zhao Zhaoniang's favorite things were the same as hers, she felt very kind, "So you like your mother, so you have been carrying sugar on your body and preparing to give it to her, and now you also like me, so you also bring candy and only give it to me, isn't it?" ”

Zhao Zhao suddenly smiled, looking a little sad.

Since ascending to the throne, Yousi has rarely seen him smile anymore, and he always looks majestic and cold on weekdays, and he rarely speaks.

"She is different from you, she is not in good health, she takes medicine all the year round, and after taking the medicine, her mouth is bitter, and her heart is bitter, so she will have a piece of sugar."

"The medicine is quite bitter." Si Si agreed with this, tilted his head, leaned on Zhao Zhao and said, "It's sweet in my heart with you." ”

Zhao Zhao rubbed his thoughtful hair like coaxing a child.

Yousi smiled, and continued to listen to Zhao Zhao: "Today's queen mother is my mother's own sister, and when my mother was seriously ill, she entered the palace to visit. ”

"And then?"

"Later, my mother died of illness, but it has become a habit to carry sugar in my arms, now think about it, or my mother is blessed by God, I can meet you."

Having said this, I was puzzled, "Your mother is so good, why do you still call the queen mother to be the queen mother?" ”

Zhao Zhao's eyes revealed a trace of helplessness, "My mother has already gone, but she is just a false name, she has always looked down on her position and doesn't care about this." As he spoke, Zhao Zhao paused for a moment, "Because I took Kyoto this time and used the Wei family's soldiers and horses, the condition I should place is to let my aunt, who is a concubine, become the queen mother of Daliang." ”

thoughtfully said: "I heard Uncle Lian talk about this, then Wei Wei is your own uncle." ”

Zhao Zhao nodded, tightened his thoughtful hand and said, "The Wei family has a deep foundation, and I can't completely take back the rights now, so Si'er, I have to wronged you." ”

Yousi smiled, leaned over and kissed Zhao Zhao, "If you treat me well, I won't feel wronged, it's a big deal, I won't see the queen mother in the future." ”

Zhao Zhao looked at Yousi dotingly, "Well, if she is summoned, she can avoid it." After that, he reminded: "She is a person who pays attention to rules and etiquette, if I am not there, you should be careful in everything." ”

You Si smiled and responded, and listened to Zhao Zhao again: "I will summon Ruyue into the palace to accompany you another day, she is a polite girl, and it is good for many people to mention you." ”

Speaking of Ruyue, at the beginning, Yousi liked Ruyue's gentle and generous sister very much, but now that he thinks about it, he asked Zhao Zhao with some taste: "Have you ever slept with Sister Ruyue?" ”

When Zhao Zhao heard this, there was a bad smile in his eyes, and he pinched his thoughtful face, "What's the matter, you're jealous?" ”

Seeing that he didn't deny it, he instantly lowered his face again, but heard Zhao Zhao say: "She is a girl who knows the number of etiquette, not as naughty and seductive as you." ”

"Yes." thoughtfully: "When Sister Ruyue looks at you, her eyes are full of you, but she is timid, and she is always doing her own thing."

Zhao Zhao stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around Yousi's waist, and whispered with his face against her hair: "She is a good girl, but my heart was snatched away by you." ”
