In recent days, Zhang Yue has eaten a lot of every meal, because Zhu Youzhu now returns to Kunning Palace for three meals a day.

Zhu Youzhu ordered the imperial dining room to change the method of cooking food and send it to Kunning Palace, which directly caused Zhang Yue's figure that had been lost due to parting quickly recovered, and his body was a little rounder than before.

On this day, Zhu Youzhu went down to the early court, and did not go to the imperial study to review the folds as usual, but went directly to Kunning Palace.

When entering the dormitory, Zhang Yue was playing with Xiaotong Huarong Dao, this set of wooden Huarong Dao was brought into the palace by Zhang Yue and Li Dongyang a few days ago, after a special design, the market could not buy it, and I don't know how Li Dongyang got it.

Zhang Yue just laid out a game, Xiaotong scratched his head, and he didn't study it for a long time. Zhang Yue was proud, Zhu Youzhu walked in and asked with a smile, "You two are very interested!" ”

Xiaotong hurriedly knelt on the ground to greet the emperor, and Zhang Yue also stood up and gave Zhu Youzhu a salute.

Zhu Youzhu stepped forward to support Zhang Yue's slender waist and whispered in her ear, "You are becoming more and more willful in your manners." ”

Zhang Yue muttered to himself, "You have to salute when you come, you have to salute when you go, you have to salute when you give things, and you have to salute countless times a day, and you are tired..."

Zhu Youzhu was slightly stunned, and then smiled, "Are you too diligent here?" ”

Zhang Yue looked at the ceiling, "I didn't say that." ”

Zhu Youzhu stretched out his hand and nodded between her eyebrows, and said dotingly, "Okay, in the future in Kunning Palace, these etiquettes will be waived." ”

Zhang Yue's eyes lit up, "Really! Thank you, Your Majesty! ”

Zhu Youzhu smiled silently.

Zhang Yue asked, "Your Majesty, why did you come here so early today, and it was not time for lunch?" ”

"I want to take you to meet the two queen mothers today. You have seen the Queen Mother, after the Empress Dowager Wu was picked up from the cold palace, you have not officially met you. The Queen Mother is virtuous and noble, and she has always been respected by the first emperor, and the Empress Dowager Wu had a period of nurturing grace in me back then. ”

"Okay, but can the emperor wait, Xiaotong hasn't broken my game yet. Xiaotong, or you can admit defeat! It's just that I couldn't see Mu Bin for three days, and it passed quickly. ”

Zhang Yue gently tugged Zhu Youzhang's sleeve.

Xiao Tong's face turned red next to him, and he said anxiously and innocently, "Your Majesty, how can the intelligence of the slave and maid be comparable to that of the mother, I really can't guess the layout method." ”

Zhang Yue was very proud, Zhu Youzhu glanced at the layout of Huarong Dao, stretched out his right hand, and gently pulled it a few times.

Zhang Yue's face changed, and he was immediately dumbfounded, "My 'General Yongcao Ying' was untied by you." ”

Xiaotong said happily, "Slave and maid, thank the emperor for relieving the siege." Niangniang, it's been untied, and the slave's bet has not been lost. ”

Zhu Youzhu looked at Zhang Yue, who was still confused, "What do you think, go and dress up." ”

Xiaotong and the palace maids of Kunning Palace hurriedly helped Zhang Yue to freshen up and dress up, and changed into an apricot yellow palace dress.

Zhu Youzhu looked at Zhang Yue, who was wearing delicate makeup, and said for a while, "Yue'er looks good in apricot yellow, I remember that when you were in Wuling Mountain, when you were a "man" and a woman dressed as a woman to catch flower thieves, you were dressed in apricot yellow clothes. ”

Zhang Yue's face was slightly red, dodging Zhu Youjiao's burning gaze, and coughed lightly, "That, Your Majesty, aren't we going to meet the two queen mothers?" ”

"Good!"

Zhu Youzhu lightly held Zhang Yue's hand,

"Xiao Jing, set up Cining Palace."

————————————————

Cining Palace, in the main hall, two graceful and luxurious middle-aged women sat on the upper seat, and Zhu Youzhu and Zhang Yue sat at the bottom with them.

The lady on the left in royal blue clothes is the queen mother, she has a kind face and is looking at Zhang Yue with a smile in her eyes.

The one on the right in a dark shirt is the Empress Dowager Wu, her face is serious, and her eyes look at Zhang Yue tentatively and hesitantly.

Zhang Yue was very uncomfortable by Empress Dowager Wu's gaze, and lowered her head slightly.

The Queen Mother looked kind and said, "Your Majesty, you just said that you want to make Yue'er the queen?" ”

Zhu Youjiao, who was beside him, hurriedly said, "Yes, Queen Mother, I want to make Yue'er my queen, and I am here to present the two queen mothers." ”

The Queen Mother nodded, "Yue'er, this child, the Mourning family also likes it, when choosing the crown princess for you, the Mourning family took a fancy to her at a glance, and was very much in favor of choosing her as the crown princess, and she did not disappoint the Mourning family, after you got married, she has always been virtuous and virtuous, and the East Palace was governed by her in an orderly manner before." The mourning family was very satisfied with her. Now, the mourning family also thinks that she is the best choice for the queen. ”

Zhang Yue took a long time before she realized that the words of virtuous Shude were praising her. I held back a smile in my heart, but there was a deferential and modest expression on my face.

Zhu Youzhu nodded and turned to Empress Dowager Wu, "Queen Mother, what do you mean?" ”

Empress Dowager Wu's eyes narrowed slightly, and her voice was a little cold, "The mourning family has been alone in Nangong for more than ten years, and many people and things don't know much about it. Your Majesty, you have grown up, and you are used to making your own decisions about everything. The queen mother has no power to instruct you anymore. Since you think someone is good, that person must be good. ”

When Zhang Yue heard it, what was this? Agree or disagree?

Zhu Youzhu replied with a smile, "Queen Mother, your son will always be your son, and there will be a lot of places to rely on you in the future, how dare you trust it." ”

Saying that, Zhu Youzhu glanced at the Queen Mother intentionally or unintentionally.

The Queen Mother also laughed softly beside her, "My sister and Yue'er have known each other for a short time, and I don't know her personality, my sister thinks that her virtuous temperament has a little bit of the shadow of her sister, and if you get along for a long time in the future, my sister will definitely like Yue'er very much." ”

Empress Dowager Wu's nose snorted lightly, I don't know if there is one.

Seeing that Empress Dowager Wu did not express any more opinions, the Queen Mother said with a smile, "Your Majesty, my sister and I both support your decision, the position of Empress should not be vacant for too long, hurry up and let the Ministry of Rites choose an auspicious day to prepare for the post-sealing ceremony!" ”

"Yes, the sons and daughters will obey the decree of the two queen mothers."

Zhang Yue felt that a cold gaze had been staring at him. It wasn't until he withdrew from Cining Palace with Zhu Youzhu that this feeling disappeared.

That look came from the direction of Empress Dowager Wu. Did you offend Empress Dowager Wu just now? She remembered vigorously.

"Yue'er, what are you thinking?"

"Your Majesty, I don't think Empress Dowager Wu likes me very much."

"The temper of the queen mother is like this, she is cold and straightforward, so she fell out of favor and was beaten into the cold palace by the first emperor. In the cold palace, she had a period of nurturing grace for me. That's why I respect her very much. Yue'er, don't think about it. ”

"Oh!" Zhang Yue agreed, without further thought.

The sun has set in the west, casting a soft golden light in all corners of the Forbidden City.
