After the eldest princess left the palace, Yuanzhi didn't worry about Su Youyi going back like this, so he let her rest in Yongshou Palace first.

He and Empress Zhou sent Su Youyi to Yongshou Palace together, and then went back, on the way back, Empress Zhou couldn't help but ask Yuanzhi, "The emperor must be very sad when he sees the eldest princess getting married, right?" After all, you only have such a sister. ”

"yes."

Motoji nodded, "This sister is very different from other people's brothers and sisters to me. When she was a child, she studied in the school with me and my second and third brothers, how could other brothers and sisters be so close? Therefore, the queen mother said that Princess Gulun was sealed, and I was not embarrassed to refuse. ”

The matter of sealing Princess Gulun to the eldest princess was still criticized by the court.

Fortunately, after Yuan Zhi's pro-government, he acted steadily, and Su Youyi, the empress dowager in power, was still powerful, so it did not cause much opposition.

What's more, this year's royal brothers and sisters have a very good relationship, and the ministers of the DPRK and China are not fools, so they can touch this brow?

Fortunately, it's just a princess, whether it's Heshuo or Gulundu, if a prince wants to be sealed or something, they have to consider whether it will affect the stability of the imperial power.

Queen Zhou nodded when she heard this, she usually has a few brothers, but as Yuan Zhi said, the relationship between brothers is not as good as that between sisters, especially as they get older, even meeting is rare, where does it come from?

Thinking about it like this, she envied that Princess Celestia had so many brothers who cared for and loved her.

She said: "When the eldest princess turned back to look for her mother, the emperor saw her mother crying, why did she frown? I think I'm afraid of delaying the auspicious time of my eldest sister? ”

Empress Zhou herself was weeping at that time, and she couldn't help but see Yuan Zhi frowning, feeling a little strange in her heart.

She couldn't ask questions on the spot, so she didn't ask until this time.

When Yuanzhi heard her question, he let out a long breath and said with a smile: "I can tell you, but you have to keep it secret, and you have to promise me not to laugh at me." ”

Empress Zhou nodded like a chicken, "Although the emperor said that the concubine's mouth is the tightest." ”

After that, he pursed his lips and looked tight.

Yuanzhi was amused by her, and said softly: "I'm not worried about any auspicious times, you know, the queen mother has never believed in this, I have been raised by her since I was a child, and I don't believe in this." What's more, the eldest sister is blessed by me and the queen mother, so what if she misses the auspicious time? ”

Empress Zhou nodded thoughtfully.

Yuan Zhi Fang said: "I'm just thinking, since I was a child, I never seem to have seen my mother cry. She is different from ordinary women, she is always so resolute, so optimistic, as if she has a way to do anything, and never needs to cry to solve problems. ”

But today, for the eldest sister to get married, she actually cried. I didn't see her cry when I got married, and Yuan Tao was the same at that time, and the queen mother only cried for her eldest sister to get married......"

As he spoke, his tone became more and more sour.

It's like someone knocked over a vat of freshly brewed vinegar, although the sour taste was not strong, it also clearly entered the tip of Queen Zhou's nose.

Empress Zhou was about to laugh, but suddenly thought that she had promised Yuanzhi not to laugh, so she held back, only her shoulders trembled uncontrollably.

Yuan Zhi saw that she was smiling hard, so he simply waved his hand, "Come on, if you really want to laugh, just laugh out loud, and you're not afraid of holding back your fault." ”

No, no, no, can't laugh.

Empress Zhou lowered her head, trying to control her expression, and it took her a while for her to feel better, and then she raised her head to look at Yuanji.

Yuanzhi looked at her, and the corners of his mouth were still slightly upturned.

"The concubine doesn't laugh, and the concubine promised the emperor that if he doesn't laugh, he can't laugh."

Empress Zhou restrained herself and said: "The concubine just doesn't understand, the emperor is eating the vinegar of the eldest sister, and thinks that the queen mother is too partial to the eldest sister?" ”

"The eldest sister is beautiful when she is young, and the queen mother often praises her in front of us."

Yuan Zhi pouted, as the emperor, he would not say that he would rather be a daughter like Xiao Wu, but he did have some thoughts in his heart.

Empress Zhou hurriedly said: "The emperor is wrong. ”

"Huh?"

"The emperor thinks about it, the eldest sister and the emperor are not born to the queen mother, but the emperor is the first person the queen mother met after entering the palace. I've known each other for a long time, and then I met my eldest sister. The so-called relatives are not arrogant, first not arrogant, how can the status of the eldest sister in the heart of the queen mother be comparable to the emperor? ”

Queen Zhou's words also make sense, when Su Youyi was a palace maid, she and Yuanzhi were also dependent on each other, and the two had experienced ups and downs together.

Then Motoji couldn't figure it out, "But why did the queen mother cry for her eldest sister?" I don't care how many things she sends to the princess's mansion, what are those things? Not as precious as a tear of the queen mother. ”

Empress Zhou was so angry and funny, she didn't know how to explain to Yuan Zhi, and thought for a while before saying: "Has the emperor ever heard that there is a custom of crying and marrying among the people?" When a daughter marries a daughter, she leaves her own family and marries into someone else's family, so she should naturally cry. When the eldest sister gets married, the queen mother is naturally reluctant, but what about the emperor? ”

"The emperor is not only in the palace well, but also married a daughter-in-law and went home to honor his mother together, the queen mother has nothing less, but has an extra daughter-in-law, how can she be unhappy? I won't cry anymore. ”

Yuanzhi was stunned, thinking about it, it seemed that this was the case, and there seemed to be something wrong.

"But the eldest sister has a princess's mansion, her status is noble, and her husband's family is just a prince's mansion, does she want to go back to the palace or the imperial garden, who else dares to stop her?"

Empress Zhou shook her head and sighed, "Your Majesty, you don't know the suffering of the people." The eldest sister is indeed noble and extraordinary, where she wants to go, but how can a folk girl be so comfortable? Isn't it married to a husband? It's like a concubine, what if you're a queen? I couldn't wait in front of my parents, so when the concubine was sealed, my mother also cried. ”

With such a happy event after her daughter was sealed, Mrs. Zhou even cried?

Yuan Zhi thought about it for a while and understood, being noble is one thing, the reluctance of not having a daughter by his side, Su Youyi and Mrs. Zhou are the same.

He nodded, "Now I understand, even if the eldest sister has a noble status and wants to go wherever she wants, in the future, she will have a husband's family and children, so she will naturally put her heart on her husband's family, and it will be difficult to wait in front of her mother from time to time." No wonder the queen mother is reluctant, this is as it should be. ”

He was relieved in his heart, and remembered that Queen Zhou mentioned her own marriage, and couldn't help but take her hand to comfort her, "I promise you that in the future, I will often invite Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou, as well as Lord Zhou, to visit you in the palace." When I am free, I will accompany you back to Zhoufu to save your relatives like ordinary people's husbands, do you say okay? ”

Empress Zhou was stunned for a moment, unable to speak for a long time, Yuan Zhi couldn't help laughing: "Why, so happy that you can't even speak?" ”
