Chapter 337: It's Soon
Chapter 337 is almost there
But it is said that Li Yan went all the way into the palace, because he did not return to Beijing for several months, and now the eunuchs and palace maids on duty everywhere in the palace see him, they are all beaming, and Li Yan never takes the master's shelf in the past days, and lived in the palace in the past, or occasionally returned to Beijing, and when he entered the palace to ask the queen mother for peace, the palace maids and eunuchs everywhere, he was willing to say two words, and did not look down on these servants very inappropriately, so that everyone saw him enter the palace for a while, and they were all smiling.
He entered the palace alone today, and there was no servant around him, and as soon as he entered the palace gate, he was greeted by the little eunuch of Cining Palace.
Li Yan sighed: "The queen mother already knew that I was going to enter the palace? ”
The little eunuch just smiled blindly, and led him with a cat waist: "The Queen Mother and the Emperor sent someone to inquire about the news early in the morning, knowing that Your Highness is coming back today, Your Highness, as soon as you enter the city gate, the palace will get a letter, and the Queen Mother sent a servant to wait at the palace gate, just waiting for you to enter the palace to ask for peace." ”
Li Yan said no more.
After so many years of being away, he is quite comfortable, and Ah Luan Suri is also worried about him, but he is so worried, and before he returns to Beijing, he is looking forward to only the queen mother.
Seeing that he didn't speak, the little eunuch also stopped talking, led the way in front of his head, and walked about a cup of tea before taking Li Yan straight into Cining Palace.
Since the queen mother was young, the most beloved is this little son, for the emperor, she has always had high hopes, and the upbringing is more serious, lest the emperor will be embarrassed in the future and be raised badly, so since the emperor entered the study, she always mentions her life, and she is mostly worried about whether the emperor's schoolwork is done well.
By the time Li Yan was born, the Queen Mother was no longer young, and it was not easy to give birth to a child at that age, it was not easy for her, and it was not easy for this child.
At that time, the first emperor was very fond of Li Yan for the sake of old age, and often asked the servants below to take him to the Qianqing Palace, teasing his son while reviewing the folds, and so on in the next few years, he couldn't get up from illness, and all the affairs of the court and politics were handed over to the emperor to take care of, and the emperor who was still the prince at that time was justifiably imprisoned the country, but among the remaining children, the first emperor was still willing to see it, and only Li Yan was there.
After all, at that time, people were no longer very useful, and they relied on decoction to nourish their spirits with their last breath.
When he was young, he was a vigorous and resolute king, and when he came, he didn't want his children to see him like that, and only Li Yan was the exception, and the first emperor really couldn't let go of this little son.
At that time, Li Yan was still young, he didn't understand anything, he didn't know anything, he babbled, he trembled when he walked, he could wrestle if he wasn't careful, and every time the Queen Mother carried him to the first emperor's bed, he didn't understand anything, just grinned at the first emperor, fluttering to grab the first emperor's hand.
As for the Queen Mother, she never had such high expectations for this little son.
When Li Yan was born, the emperor had grown up, and he was very talented, even the first emperor praised him repeatedly, and he was very optimistic about him, and the queen mother knew in her heart that her careful teaching of her eldest son for so many years, being a strict mother, was effective.
Because she poured all her maternal love into Li Yan's body, she did her best to pamper her, and she didn't ask Li Yan how to be motivated, even if she couldn't assist his royal brother in the future, the queen mother didn't care, as long as Li Yan was happy, it was enough to be so chic and comfortable for the rest of her life.
Fortunately, the emperor is not so small-minded, he doesn't care about Li Yan, but follows the queen mother's wishes, and probably looks at the first emperor and the queen mother love Li Yan so much, he can't bear to hurt the heart of the first emperor and the queen mother, and the brothers are not in harmony, and it is really a little older than Li Yan, and he can't compete with a milk doll for favor, and treats Li Yan as a thorn in the flesh.
Seeing Li Yan enter the door from outside the palace today, but seeing that there was no one to serve around him, his cold air was brought into the west room of Cining Palace, and the Queen Mother subconsciously twisted her eyebrows: "Zhao Falcon Suri followed you to serve, where are you going to be lazy today?" On such a cold day, the people around you didn't follow, so did you enter the palace alone? The mourning family looked at the cold air on your body, and entered the palace outside, it was very cold, right? ”
As she spoke, she called the big palace maid beside her: "Meiyi, go and get a stove for King Qi." ”
Li Yan saw the salute, stood up with a smile, and leaned over to the queen mother's side with crooked eyebrows: "I'm such a big person, go to the palace to ask the queen mother to say goodbye, do you want someone to follow and serve?" Aunt Meiyi, don't be busy, I don't want that thing. ”
The Queen Mother clenched his hands tightly, folded her two hands, and covered him: "I don't even want to take a copy of my hand, I have been such a strong temper since I was a child, the weather is cold, you are reckless, and I haven't seen the mourning family, and the men in this world don't need a stove?" Don't even have to copy your hands? Frozen and broken, not yourself? ”
Li Yan is really not afraid of the cold, when he was in Qizhou in the past, in some years, the snow came early, and the sky was overwhelming, Wei Luan was a person who loved to play with snow, he accompanied her to build a snowman, rolling snowballs, most of the time he was busy, and refused to ask her to do it, for fear of frostbitten her pair of plain and good-looking hands, after a long time, he was even more afraid of the cold.
It's just that he came from outside, and the earth dragon was burned in Cining Palace, and the house was warm, which made it more and more cold outside, but it seemed that he was covered with cold, and his hands were getting colder and colder.
At this time, the queen mother held his hand, because she was afraid that he would catch a cold, he knew in his own heart, knowing that his mother was old, so he couldn't stand the cold the most, so he hurriedly pulled his hand out, and shouted: "It's better to get me a stove, otherwise the queen mother will be chattering for a long time." ”
He was half joking, and with a joke, he asked the Queen Mother to open her mouth and spat him: "Mourning family, you returned to Beijing this year, a little later than in previous years, did you encounter something delay on the way?" ”
Sure enough, he was extremely attentive, and he paid attention to everything, tossing back and forth like this for a year, and his mother remembered it so clearly.
In previous years, he was early in the morning, when the east was just white, he set off from Qizhou, about noon Mo, he was able to enter Beijing, just went back to the palace to change clothes and enter the palace to ask for peace, lunch in Cining Palace with the queen mother.
This year, in order not to worry about Ah Luan, he got up early and sent someone to Wei's house to interrogate, and waited until Ah Luan got up, he went to see it once, and told him a lot of things, before he set off from Qizhou.
At this time, the Queen Mother asked, and he couldn't say that it was for Ah Luan, so he had to vaguely perfunctory the past, only saying that there were a few heavy snowfalls a while ago, the snow on the official road was not cleared, and it was slippery on the road.
The Queen Mother felt that it was wrong when she heard it, the horizontal and vertical roads were so far away, no matter how slow the car was, it would not be said that it was delayed for a few hours, he lied like this, most of the time there was something else to hide, but he just came back, and he was happy, since he didn't want to say, the Queen Mother didn't ask, and with him went, he called Meiyi to pick up the pastries that had been prepared a long time ago, all of which should be the ones that Li Yan likes to eat.
The mother and son were talking happily, and outside Chunyan opened the curtain and came in the door, folded her hands and approached, squatting and saluting: "Master, the lord of Yuanle County came to the palace to greet you, and I am waiting at the palace gate at this time." ”
The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows high, didn't say anything, put back a piece of osmanthus cake in her hand, and looked sideways at Li Yan: "Last time I went to Qizhou, Yuanle"
Li Yan's face changed when he arrived, and he looked back: "Queen Mother, I haven't asked you about this yet, but you brought it up again and talked about this ......."
He seemed to be gushing and about to speak, the Queen Mother saw this, where she still didn't understand, sighed: "Your intentions, the mourning family understands, it's just that Yuanle came to the palace to ask for peace, the mourning family has never given her a closed door, what about you, I will see her after a while, don't go too far, she is just a little girl, I love you, there is nothing wrong, don't do too much, hurt everyone's feelings, make the girl's face unbearable, do you hear?" ”
In the end, she dotes on Li Yan, and between her gestures, she is all spoiled, but now seeing that Li Yan has been silent for a long time, she raised her hand to poke him, and gently grabbed Li Yan, all of which were full of doting.
Li Yan really had no choice, so he had to nod and say that he knew, and the Queen Mother asked Chunyan to call Qin Lingxin to come in the door.
And Qin Lingxin entered the door and saw the Queen Mother, and it was indeed a well-behaved and respectful greeting ceremony, as if he had entered the palace to greet the Queen Mother.
But in fact, she had something hidden in her heart, and she couldn't stand the Queen Mother's words, so her eyes glanced at Li Yan vigorously.
The Queen Mother saw it in her eyes, but in her heart she only said that she was wronged, if it weren't for the Wei family's Ah Luan, this pair of talented and beautiful people, there would be no such a match in the world.
Since she was a child, she has almost watched Qin Lingxin grow up, although this girl is a little tricky and domineering on weekdays, she is not a blindly willful person, the most rare thing is that she is sincere to Li Yan, such a good background, a person who grew up from a small group of stars holding the moon, for Li Yan, she is willing to do anything, how many times she has put down her body, when she was a child, she has done such a thing as a big fight with Ah Luan, even a big fight.
The Queen Mother sighed helplessly: "Yuan Le, the mourning family is also sleepy this time, in order to wait for Li Yan to come back, the afternoon nap has not stopped today, but it is easy not to see you enter the palace for a while, so, ask Li Yan to accompany you to walk around the palace, and when the mourning family is rested, you will come back, let's talk for a while, ask Li Yan to send you to your house, just when you go out of the palace together, ah?" ”
Qin Lingxin knew that the Queen Mother had always had the heart to match, but she didn't want to force it too much, and she was still talking about the word casual, and she also knew that as long as she could grasp Li Yan's heart, the Queen Mother would definitely be happy to see the two of them achieve good things.
She raised her eyes to look at Li Yan, he was still lacking in interest, Qin Lingxin took a deep breath and slowly stood up: "Then I won't disturb the Queen Mother, you will rest, and I will come back to talk to you later." ”
The Queen Mother has such a heart, Qin Lingxin's heart is actually very grateful, after so many years, only the Queen Mother is willing to indulge her like this, and her thoughts, even if everyone knows it, she can only indulge one or two in front of the Queen Mother.
She got up and was about to withdraw slowly, but the Queen Mother poked Li Yan several times, and Li Yan really had no choice, so she had to follow her up, saluted the Queen Mother, and reluctantly followed Qin Lingxin out of the door without mentioning it.
The eyebrows were full of the reluctance on Li Yan's face, and he helped the Queen Mother to get up, moved to the inner room of the dormitory, and couldn't help but sigh and persuade the Queen Mother: "The children's affairs, you always meddle like this, the slave and maid are not very happy to see our Royal Highness, Your Highness is now in Qizhou all the year round, and every year I go back to Beijing to live in this day, why do you bother to come." ”
"His intentions, we all know, just eyebrows, Yuanle made it clear that he entered the palace for him, in fact, in the past two years, ......" the Queen Mother sighed once, "In the past two years, Yuanle has not rushed to the palace, the mourning family originally thought that she was slowly getting older, and this mind gradually faded, and in the future, after two years, the mourning family looked at it and pointed her to a good marriage, and from then on, everyone left it alone." But you see, a while ago, she entered the palace and knelt down and begged the mourning family to let her go to Qizhou, and the mourning family knew that she was unwilling and unwilling to give up. Yan'er is older, he should have pointed him out a side concubine last year, according to his age, the marriage will not drag on for a few years, Yuanle does not give up, and does not want to give up, so he wants to make one last effort. ”
She sat down on the bed, and served her to lie down crookedly, she thought about it, sat up again, leaned on the golden silk soft pillow behind her, and closed her eyes slightly: "It's all the children of the mourning family who have grown up, they can indulge in one day, it's one day, it's really in the end, Yan'er still refuses to take Yuanle to heart, and the mourning family can't do it." For so many years, Yuanle has never done anything out of the ordinary, just looking at her sincerity towards Yan'er, the mourning family can help her a little, a little. ”
Meiyi sat down on the round pier at the end of the bed, and tucked the brocade quilt at her feet for the Queen Mother: "But you said that the county lord has always refused to let go, has it always been embarrassing for His Highness to be caught in the middle?" Queen Mother, in the end, aren't you the one who is in trouble? ”
Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother shook her head, and she opened her eyes: "Look, it's going to be soon." ”
Eyebrows were stunned: "What do you mean?" ”
The Queen Mother just raised the corners of her mouth and pulled out a curvature, what she was referring to, but she didn't say more than half a word with her eyebrows.
