Chapter 385: The Queen Mother

,。

When I arrived at the Taiji Palace, it was not yet the time to go to the court. The ministers of civil and military affairs lined up outside the Taiji Gate one after another, waiting for the chief of the inner chamberlain to announce the audience.

Yang Qiqi entered the Taiji Hall from the side door of the inner palace, and the courtiers waiting outside were naturally invisible. Murong Zhao and Emperor Yonghui came out of the Liangyi Hall together and went to the Taiji Palace. Yang Qiqi happened to stop the two.

Yang Qiqi saluted and immediately said to Emperor Yonghui: "Father, the emperor's grandmother's health is not very good. ”

When Emperor Yonghui heard this, his brows frowned, but he still said to Yang Qiqi very calmly: "The princess doesn't have to worry, say slowly!" ”

Yang Qiqi hurriedly told Emperor Yonghui and Murong Zhao all the words that Hui Silk said to the East Palace early in the morning, and Emperor Yonghui listened to it, and immediately said to He Qingtai: "The Queen Mother is slightly ill, and she will stop for a day." Emperor Yonghui's words fell, and he took Murong Zhao and the others directly to the Baifu Palace.

At this moment, Yang Qiqi was extremely anxious, Murong Zhao stepped forward and grabbed Yang Qiqi's hand, and said softly: "You still have a body, don't be too anxious to hurt your body again, how can you do it!" ”

Yang Qiqi barely said "um", but he was still panicked in his heart.

When she arrived at the Baifu Palace, the Queen Mother was already dressed neatly, and when she saw Emperor Yonghui coming, she was extremely surprised, and said, "Why are you all here, the mourning family just wants to go out with the crown princess." ”

Emperor Yonghui smiled and said, "Erchen also wants to accompany his mother to Leyouyuan for a visit, why do you only take the princess with you and don't take your son!" ”

The Queen Mother smiled and asked Emperor Yonghui, "Aren't you going to court today?" ”

Emperor Yonghui reminded the Queen Mother with a smile: "Isn't it Xiu Mu today!" It just so happens that we haven't been out together in a long time! ”

The Queen Mother was full of interest and was particularly happy, "Yes, there are many people and it is lively, since the emperor is also interested, let's call Shangjiujiang, Tong'an, as well as Lao Jiu and Lao Thirteen, and tell them to go." ”

Emperor Yonghui looked at the Queen Mother's expression, and felt very uncomfortable, nodded with a reluctant smile, and called "He Qingtai". Since he didn't need to elaborate, He Qingtai knew what to do. He answered, and immediately ordered someone to do it.

The Queen Mother beckoned to Yang Qiqi, and asked Yang Qiqi angrily: "But what did you say to Zhao'er?" Originally, the mourning family only thought about the two of us! ”

Murong Zhao hurriedly stepped forward with a smile, and the crown prince and the crown princess supported the queen mother left and right, and said, "No." The grandson looked at the crown princess and Aunt Hui Silk and muttered quietly, curious to eavesdrop. How good it is for us to go together, there are many people and it is lively! ”

The Queen Mother smiled, nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes, let's go!" ”

Emperor Yonghui asked He Qingtai to go down early in the morning, and the road from Taiji Palace to Leyouyuan was cleared, and there was no one to see. When I arrived at Leyouyuan, the eldest princess of Jiujiang, the eldest princess of Tong'an, King Su and the family of King Rong all arrived. The Queen Mother got out of the carriage and was supported by Yang Qiqi all the way. When he saw his two daughters, he smiled and said, "You are here too!" ”

The eldest princess of Tong'an obviously already knew, her eyes were red at this time, and she looked like she had cried once.

The Queen Mother had obvious impatience on her face, and complained to Emperor Yonghui: "The mourning family just wants to go out for a walk with the crown princess, it's good for you to come, tossing so many people!" ”

Emperor Yonghui said with a smile: "In May, isn't this a good day to go out for an outing, we have not been out for a long time." Besides, you see that Jiujiang and Tong'an are here, and you only talk about the long princess and the short princess, the two of them should be jealous! ”

Princess Tong'an was busy with a look of coquettishness and pulled the queen mother's hand, and sighed: "It's not! How can the queen mother not see the crown princess enough every day! ”

The Queen Mother patted Yang Qiqi's hand and glanced at Princess Tong'an, still saying the old saying, "You are an elder who is an aunt, and you always compete with juniors for a favor!" Moreover, the princess's kindness to the mourning family is not something you know. The Queen Mother said this like a complete child.

Emperor Yonghui laughed, personally led in front of the Queen Mother, and said, "Queen Mother, let's go in!" ”

Murong Zhao and the others were on the left and right, hugging the Queen Mother and entering the Leyou Plain.

Everyone walked while enjoying the scenery, the spirit of the Queen Mother was particularly good, Emperor Yonghui was also worried about the fatigue of the Queen Mother, deliberately slowed down his pace, and let the shoulder Yu follow all the way, once the Queen Mother was tired, he immediately stepped forward. But the Queen Mother didn't say she was tired all the way, but quickly walked to Shengping Pavilion.

Yang Qiqi and Murong Zhao and others all revisited their old places, and the last time they came was more than ten years ago. At that time, Murong Xi provoked her to embarrass her and let her leave half of the poem in the Shengping Pavilion for the Queen Mother. Because of this, she was proudly summoned by the Queen Mother. Now the plaque hanging on the Shengping Pavilion is already a complete verse.

The Queen Mother raised her head, looked at the inscription on it, and asked Yang Qiqi with a smile: "Ronghe, do you still remember that in the fifteenth year of Yonghui, you wrote the poems I once left here?" ”

Yang Qiqi smiled and said: "It is beautiful to look at it, and it is sad to leave the home." has been shocked, and the emptiness is green and soft. Strive to be a bird in a cage, and return to the heart of the seagull. It hurts the sun and the moon, and wants to harvest it. The first half of the poem on the plaque was written by the Queen Mother. The second half of the que was written by me, and compared to the calligraphy of the Queen Mother, mine is too small to be able to do it. ”

The Queen Mother shook her head and said: "Your calligraphy is the flow of clouds and water, and the pen is a dragon and snake." The two of us are comparable. ”

Emperor Yonghui also nodded, and said with a smile: "In the past, I saw Princess Su's calligraphy very good, but the stroke with the crown princess was slightly inferior. Looking at the ladies of each family, most of them are plum blossoms, neat but have no personality. ”

The Queen Mother smiled and said silently, looked at it for a long time, and then said: "The mourning family is tired, you don't have to be here to accompany you, just let the crown princess stay." Let's go and play. ”

Emperor Yonghui naturally understood that the meaning of the Queen Mother's words was obviously that she wanted to talk to Yang Qiqi alone. Emperor Yonghui naturally didn't stop him, and immediately waved his hand to everyone, and said to the Queen Mother in a warm voice: "Then let's go around!" After he finished speaking, he led the people to retreat, but he didn't really leave. Instead, he withdrew from Shengping Pavilion with these people and waited in the distance.

The Queen Mother walked to the railing of the Shengping Pavilion and sat down slowly, Yang Qiqi was afraid that she would not be able to sit down and plant it. Leaned tightly on the side of the Queen Mother and held her shoulders.

"There is fun in the corner of the city, and you can see Huangzhou on the surface. Riding horses is not only long-term, but also long-term clouds. Thousands of ravines are full of clear light, and thousands of doors are happy. Straight city road between flowers, grass meandering river. With the view of the beauty of the place, away from the home side of the sorrow. has been shocked, and the emptiness is green and soft. Strive to be a bird in a cage, and return to the heart of the seagull. It hurts the sun and the moon, and wants to harvest it. The Queen Mother whispered, soft and tactful, and at the end, she smiled and said: "Yes, yes, yes, yes!" ”

Yang Qiqi was full of shame, and whispered: "Where is this right for me, this poem is clearly made by yourself." It was because I was clever that I secretly appropriated it in order to be angry with His Highness the Thirteenth. Not only did you not demolish me, but you also helped me get my family back. You love me so much, trust me, Qiqi sighed for a long time, how can I be so virtuous, and you are so favored. ”

The Queen Mother took Yang Qiqi's hand and said with a gentle smile: "First, because of your master; The second is because what you understand is the same as what I thought back then. If you can memorize this poem, it must have been mentioned to you by your master, or let you see it. He still remembers this poem and has always kept it in his heart, which makes the mourning family very satisfied. ”

Yang Qiqi didn't dare to answer, but listened silently on the side.

The Queen Mother said: "When I knew your master in Weiwei, I respected him for his erudition and knowledge, and his literary brilliance. He didn't care at all that I was a woman raised in the boudoir, and he was close to me and made friends with me. ”

Yang Qiqi smiled and said: "Master said that you don't let your women shave your eyebrows, which is very different from ordinary noblewomen. When he mentioned you to me, he was especially admired. You are like-minded and friends with Master. ”

The Queen Mother laughed out loud and said, "Everyone is going to die, what else can't be said." Actually, I had him in my heart. It's a pity that we were in troubled times at the time, and we were finally separated. Later, when I remarried, I had no choice but to do it. Your master hasn't been married for so many years, and if it were because of me, I would be sorry for him. You see, I married a wife, had children, and was the queen mother. But what about him? ”

Yang Qiqi shook his head and said, "No, who can you talk to about the bitterness in your heart, it's not easy for you." Life and death are separated, but they are all alive, but they can only forget each other in the rivers and lakes. People who put it in their hearts, who don't even dare to think about it, are the most bitter. ”

The Queen Mother was teary-eyed by Yang Qiqi's words, held Yang Qiqi's hand tightly, and said sadly: "So the mourning family likes you so much and is willing to fulfill you." Tolerance, in the whole world, only you know how to mourn best. ”

Yang Qiqi's heart was also sour, and he whispered: "I wrote a letter to the master, asking him to return to Beijing as soon as possible." About touching, you will be able to enter Chang'an in a little and a half months. ”

"He's back?" The Queen Mother's eyes were incomparably bright, with deep anticipation.

Yang Qiqi bowed his head and said softly: "Yes, as soon as he got my letter, the master immediately set off from Nanliang." He's anxious right now, too, and wants to see you again. The master has been alone and adrift for so many years. In my heart, I should also miss you. He...... I miss you very much. ”

The Queen Mother smiled contentedly, "I know, I know." The word he gave you is called Ronghe, and when I hear it, I will know it. I just feel sorry for him, and I feel sorry for him to be lonely and old. If I really have a next life, I am willing to go with him, but I don't know if he is willing or not. ”

Yang Qiqi choked up and said, "If he is willing, he must be willing." ”

The Queen Mother's eyelids were straight, and the hand holding Yang Qiqi was obviously weak, and her voice gradually became quieter, "I want to see him, I want to hear what he said in person, but it's a pity that ......" The Queen Mother didn't finish speaking, her hand sank, and her head was tilted heavily on Yang Qiqi's shoulder.

Yang Qiqi forcibly held back his crying and said, "Queen Mother, it's over." ”。
