Chapter 822: Concubine (2)
Xiao Yuhan wept silently, and his eyes quickly reddened.
Xie Mingxi's heart was also slightly sour, he picked up a handkerchief to wipe his tears for Xiao Yuhan, and said with a pretended brisk smile: "It's all because I can't speak, and I actually made the imperial sister-in-law cry in a few words." ”
Xiao Yuhan sniffed, took the handkerchief, and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. Then she smiled and said, "It's because I'm crying." ”
The two tacitly smiled at each other and walked into the inner room hand in hand to speak.
Xiao Yuhan calmed down and said in a low voice: "You told me that day, within a month, you can make the queen mother take the initiative to open her mouth and let you out of Cining Palace." It's been more than a month, and the queen mother doesn't seem to have let go. ”
Xie Mingxi smiled leisurely: "Six days ago, the queen mother was relieved. Not only did it save me from serving my illness, but it also made me take over part of the palace affairs and learn to take care of the palace affairs. However, I have found a reason to refuse. ”
Xiao Yuhan: "......"
The sentence "You shouldn't be confused" almost rushed out. Fortunately, Xiao Yuhan reacted quite quickly and swallowed the words immediately.
Xie Mingxi naturally has a reason for doing this.
Sure enough, Xie Mingxi smiled slowly and said, "It's so good now." I stayed in Cining Palace every day, and the Queen Mother had to go to Cining Palace every day to greet the imperial grandmother. With the imperial grandmother here, the queen mother cannot be bullied as a mother-in-law. I also have to take a look at the face of the imperial grandmother from time to time. ”
That's just as well.
Carrying the banner of the Empress Dowager Li, it is much more convenient to deal with the Empress Dowager Yu. It is not difficult to make some stumbling blocks for Empress Dowager Yu.
Xiao Yuhan is also a smart and penetrating person, and he quickly figured out the truth, and his brows furrowed: "That's right." So much better. ”
After thinking about it, I regretted it again: "It's just that if I missed this time, I want to meddle in palace affairs in the future, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult." ”
Xie Mingxi raised his eyebrows and smiled faintly: "What I want is never to meddle in palace affairs!" ”
What I want is to get back everything that belongs to me, the queen of the middle palace!
The meaning of the words, Xiao Yuhan heard it clearly.
Looking at Xie Mingxi's confident and calm face, Xiao Yuhan was both envious and ashamed, and smiled self-deprecatingly: "You're right. The dignified queen should be in charge of the six palaces. Meddling in palace affairs, which kind of queen is it? ”
On the contrary, she has been such a puppet queen for more than three years!
Become the laughing stock of everyone!
Without waiting for Xie Mingxi to open his mouth to comfort him, Xiao Yuhan cheered up again and said with a smile: "You know it in your heart, so I won't worry too much." If there is anything in the future, you just have to open your mouth. I don't have much power, and I can still do what I shout. ”
Xie Mingxi smiled slightly: "You don't have to do anything, just stand by my side like now." ”
Xiao Yuhan has been a queen for more than three years, and the palace is not completely empty. Moreover, Xiao Yuhan has a huge Xiao family behind him, which is a force that cannot be underestimated.
Putting these aside, Xiao Yuhan, the first emperor and queen, standing beside her, was already the greatest support for her, the queen.
Xiao Yuhan also laughed: "Okay! ”
……
Dinner was plentiful and exquisite.
There is no shortage of skilled chefs in the palace. It's just that Xie Mingxi has been used to eating Ye Qiuniang's meals over the years, and now he has lost some taste no matter how he eats.
However, Ye Jingzhi and Yu An were left in Shu, and it was inconvenient for Ye Qiuniang to come to Beijing alone.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yuhan saw that Xie Mingxi didn't eat much, so he asked with a smile: "Are you not used to eating the imperial food in the palace?" ”
Xie Mingxi nodded: "It's a pity that Ye Qiuniang is still in Shudi, and when she comes to the capital in the future, I will let her enter the palace." ”
Xiao Yuhan was a little puzzled: "Why don't you summon her to the capital now?" ”
Xie Mingxi didn't say it directly, and said with a casual smile: "Shudi dishes are mainly spicy, Ah Luo is still young, and Master is not used to spicy taste." Ye Qiuniang stayed in the Shu Palace, cooking three meals a day for Ah Luo and Master. ”
The fact is that Sheng Hong plans to manage Shu well, and he also plans to continue to raise private soldiers in Shu. Xie Mingxi's industry in Shu also needs to be taken care of by Yu An. In the short term, Yu An and his wife will not be able to return to Beijing.
Xiao Yuhan obviously realized something, so he didn't ask anymore, but sighed abruptly: "Sister Lin, Sister Yan, Sister Qin, are now in Shudi. I want to see them, I don't know how long it will be. ”
"yes!" Xie Mingxi also misses the leisurely and comfortable life in Shu and a group of friends: "I also think about them all the time." ”
"One term as an official, at least five years. Lu Chi and Zhao Qicai have only been gone for more than two years, and Chen Zhan has gone to Shu a little later, and it has not yet been two years. If you want to return to Beijing, you have to wait for the end of this term. ”
This is clearly a pretext.
As the Son of Heaven, Sheng Hong wants to summon a few henchmen back to Beijing easily, and a holy decree is sufficient.
Leaving Lu Chi and them in Shu must have some purpose.
The biggest advantage of Xiao Yuhan is that he never talks too much. Wen Yan smiled and said another thing: "Some time ago, I sent someone to send some children's food and clothing to the Lu Wangfu and the Min Wangfu. By the way, I visited the second sister-in-law and the fifth brother and sister on my behalf, and brought them some food. ”
"There are often people in the palace who go to the palace, and in the eyes of everyone, they can also have less tongue."
Xie Mingxi smiled sincerely: "The imperial sister-in-law is much more careful than me. I hadn't thought of that for a moment. ”
Xiao Yuhan lowered his eyes slightly, hiding a touch of sadness and self-harm in his eyes: "There are too many things for you to worry about." You can't think of it for a while, and it's inevitable. ”
Xie Mingxi and Sheng Hong are in love with each other, where can they experience the mood of a widowed woman.
With children by your side, you are not lonely during the day. But at night, when a person lies alone on the bed, how can he not be sad?
Xie Mingxi clearly glimpsed the pity and sorrow in Xiao Yuhan's eyes, but it was inconvenient to say comfort.
The pain of losing a husband can only be slowly healed by a long time.
……
After dinner, Xie Mingxi and Xiao Yuhan sat opposite each other and drank a cup of tea.
The fragrance of tea lingers, and the mood is also quiet and peaceful.
Familiar footsteps sounded outside the door.
Sheng Hong's familiar voice sounded outside: "Mingxi, I'm back." ”
Because he knew that Xiao Yuhan was also in the inner room, Sheng Hong did not directly push the door in. Instead, he stood outside the door and shouted with a smile: "Imperial sister-in-law, may I come in?" ”
Xiao Yuhan unexpectedly remembered the scene when Emperor Jian'an broke into the inner room of Yin Xiaoxiao that day, and his heart tingled, and he smiled in his mouth: "It's okay for the emperor to enter." ”
A moment later, Sheng Hong pushed the door and walked in.
Xie Mingxi smiled and got up to greet him.
Xiao Yuhan also got up, and Sheng Hong smiled again and again: "How can there be a reason for a sister-in-law to welcome an uncle." The imperial sister-in-law just sat down peacefully. ”
The two have been classmates for three years and are already familiar with each other. Later, Xiao Yuhan married Sheng Che, and Sheng Hong met Xiao Yuhan, a sister-in-law of the three emperors.
At this time, Sheng Hong smiled lightly, and opened his mouth to be his sister-in-law's uncle, which was particularly intimate.
That's how family members should be!
Xiao Yuhan's heart warmed, and the corners of his lips raised slightly.
