Chapter 31: The Queen Mother is invited

Whenever the emperor was called "Brother Huang" instead of "King Chen", he felt that there was a breath in his chest that he couldn't breathe, because he knew in his heart that this family card would only be played when the emperor especially needed him, and he had to accept it head-on.

"I feel much more relieved if you say this, but I have also heard that this daughter of the county king is known as the first beauty in the imperial city, and in other words, it will not insult the emperor's brother." Saying that, a playful smile flashed in Helian Cheng's eyes, he understood that this imperial brother was famous, as long as it was a beauty, he would never refuse, although this time he said that he was married to the daughter of the county king, but in the end, it was also like a flower, and he would really enjoy it.

"The emperor's arrangement has always been for the sake of the younger brother, and the younger brother understands the hard work of the younger brother."

Helian Cheng was very satisfied with his attitude, his chin was slightly bowed, and a trace of shrewdness flashed in his deep eyes, "It's good that the imperial brother understands, I hope the imperial brother can find the news about the tomb of the king from your princess as soon as possible, you know, now finding the whereabouts of the tomb of the king is too important for our Yun Kingdom, the imperial brother, you will definitely do your best, right?" ”

The last sentence seems to be a casual question, but it is actually invisibly putting pressure on Helian Yu.

Helian Yu knew in his heart that his younger brother had to rely on himself on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was worried that he would overshadow his achievements and rob him of his prestige as an emperor......

Maybe when a person has a lot, he is reluctant to give up even a little, on the contrary, when he has very little, he looks very open, and he doesn't have much anyway, so why be afraid of losing.

"The younger brother understands the importance of this matter, and he will definitely step up his actions, and as for the other country's side, the younger brother will also pay close attention."

That's all he can do, this time, in order to avoid the dispute between the two women in the family, he walked to the border at will, but what he didn't expect was that he learned that Beguo actually moved so fast, which was really beyond his imagination.

Originally, the national strength of Yun and Beguo was equal, but at the beginning of the year, Beguo actually discovered a rich silver mine and collected a large amount of silver.

"Well, you've been busy with this for a while, so let's go home and rest." Helian Cheng waved his arm, and then walked to the desk, where there was a thick stack of folds, all of which were the ones that the ministers should beware of.

How good would it be if there was no such confidant as a country? He can be a worry-free emperor.

"The brother has retired." Then, Helian Yu cautiously retreated.

As soon as he got out of the imperial study, a white little eunuch walked over to this side, and he recognized this little eunuch at a glance as Xiao Xiangzi next to the Queen Mother.

Xiao Xiangzi came to him and saluted, "King Chen, the Queen Mother wants to see you, please move to Kangshou Palace." ”

"There is Lao Xiang's father-in-law." After speaking, he followed Xianggong to Kangshou Palace.

Then he turned around and said to Li Feng, who was following behind, "You can wait for me at the east gate." ”

Today's Empress Dowager Xiao lives in Kangshou Palace, however, Empress Dowager Xiao is not Helianyu's biological mother, it is said that Helianyu's biological mother is just an ordinary palace maid, and she died in childbirth when she gave birth to him, the first emperor cherished Helianyu and handed him over to the Xiao family who was still Queen Xiao at that time to raise, at that time Heliancheng had grown up and had been canonized as the crown prince, the young Helianyu could not pose any threat to Queen Xiao and Heliancheng, and Queen Xiao also treated Helianyu as her own.

If there is anything worth remembering Helian Yu within the walls of this palace, it is the warmth that Empress Dowager Xiao once gave him.

Walking into Kangshou Palace, familiar scenes are presented in front of you one by one, and the past of childhood also surfaces one by one......

However, he pursed his thin lips and deliberately allowed himself to ignore all this, and his cold gaze did not look around, only stared ahead.

At the foot of the path is a path paved with granite, and at the end of the path is a gazebo, in the breeze, and the purple-red veil gently flutters around the pavilion, and in it sits a rich-faced, richly dressed woman.

"King Chen, the Queen Mother is in the pavilion. The minion will report it. Xiao Xiangzi paused about three meters from the pavilion.

Inside the pavilion, Empress Dowager Xiao had obviously heard it, "Xiao Xiangzi, King Chen is here to see Empress Dowager Ben, and there is no need to report it in the future." ”

Then, two palace maids helped Empress Dowager Xiao out from behind the veil, "Helianyu, the Empress Dowager doesn't let people invite you, don't you come to see the Empress Dowager?" Have you forgotten the Empress Dowager? ”

Helian Yu hurriedly stepped forward and immediately bowed, "The son Helian Yu participated in the Queen Mother." ”

"Get up, get up, there are no outsiders here, this set in the palace will be exempted, this palace called you over just to let you chat with the palace, think about it, we haven't had a good chat for more than half a year." Empress Dowager Xiao smiled slightly, and raised her hand slightly.

"It's all because Erchen is not good, and he didn't take time out to accompany the Queen Mother." Helian Yu showed a touch of shame. He can often walk around the palace, but Kangshou Palace rarely comes, mainly because he doesn't want to add to the emperor's doubts, and he doesn't want the emperor to think that he is using the power of the queen mother to consolidate the status of the Chen Palace's palace in the imperial city.

Empress Dowager Xiao smiled lovingly, "This palace knows that there are some things that can't be blamed on you, people from the royal family have a lot of helplessness and involuntarily, but, no matter what, I hope you must remember that there is still me as the queen mother, go, accompany me to the pavilion to sit, I have already asked people to prepare for you your favorite cloud cake when you were a child." ”

She entered the palace at the age of sixteen, and the palace was deceitful, and the environment of fighting for power and profit sharpened her into today's Empress Dowager Xiao, she can be said to be the victor within the palace walls, therefore, the ambiguous relationship between Helian Yu and Helian City is like a mirror in her heart, but they are still good brothers on the surface now, and she, as a mother, should not know what to do, and let things develop.

One thing she can rest assured is that as long as she lives for a day, the brothers will never tear their faces.

Helian Yu helped Empress Dowager Xiao to walk towards the pavilion, where there were all kinds of exquisite pastries on the square table, including a large plate of cloud cakes.

The cloud cake is soft, sweet but not greasy, it is his favorite food before, and when he sees this cloud cake, a warmth suddenly rises in his heart. He likes to eat cloud cakes, and I am afraid that only Empress Dowager Xiao still remembers it in the world today.

He took a piece of cloud cake, put it in his mouth and chewed it gently, "The cloud cake in the palace is more delicious than the outside." ”
