Early winter morning.

A luxurious sedan chair suddenly stopped at the gate of the Taishi Mansion.

Taishi Zhao was originally planning to go to the early court, but he was a little surprised to see this momentum.

Xiao Fangzi held his head high, looking like a dog, and his tone was not warm at all: "Concubine Li has arrived!" ”

The king is a monarch and a minister, even if the sedan chair is his daughter, but it is the emperor's woman, and he must meet with the courtesy of the monarch and the minister.

Zhao Taishi bowed his head and saluted.

Zhao Xueji came out of the sedan chair and hurriedly helped Mrs. Zhao up: "Dad, what are you doing here?" What kind of etiquette does your daughter do! ”

"Concubine Li is the emperor's favorite concubine, of course the ministers have to salute!"

Taishi Zhao groveled, looking respectful.

Zhao Xueji had no choice but to follow the rules and stand upright: "Master Taishi is exempt from courtesy." ”

The expression on Taishi Zhao's face relaxed a little: "Xue Ji, why did you suddenly go back to your parents' house?" ”

Zhao Xueji took her father's arm and shook it gently, and said coquettishly: "You just married a girl, how do you feel as if I have really become a splash of water?" I think my father and mother kissed me, of course I have to come back to see it. ”

"But Daddy is about to go to court ......," Zhao Taishi looked embarrassed.

"Business matters, Daddy, go quickly! I went in to see my mother. "Zhao Xueji seems to be quite reasonable.

Taishi Zhao nodded: "It's okay!" Your mother doesn't seem to be in a good mood these days, so you comfort and comfort her more. ”

Nodding, Zhao Xueji watched her father get on a sedan chair and go in the direction of the palace.

Mrs. Taishi's wife, Li E, was lying on the bed with a tired face. There was a piece of absorbent cotton cloth on his forehead, and he was screaming about a headache.

A maid came in and announced: "Madam, our young lady is back!" ”

"Zhao Xueji?" Li E was excited, the cotton cloth on her forehead fell, as if she remembered something, but the expression on her face suddenly returned to the way she was just now, pouted, and lazily: "I don't see!" ”

The maid was a little embarrassed, and stepped forward cautiously: "Madam, Miss finally came back from the palace to see you, it doesn't seem like you can't see her, right?" ”

"What's so bad? Concubine Li can not see me, why can't I not see my daughter? ”

Li E deliberately put her voice very loud, as if she was shouting, and people outside could hear what she said from afar.

Xiao Fangzi didn't know how to deal with himself, and he didn't smile with a smile on his face.

Zhao Xueji shook her head and walked straight into her mother's bedroom. There was still a smile on his face: "Mother, are you still angry with me?" ”

Li E hurriedly turned around and gave her a back: "Where does the old woman dare to be angry with Concubine Li?" The old woman just has a headache, and it is inconvenient to meet customers! ”

Zhao Xueji stepped forward and gently pushed Li E: "Mother...... It's not easy for your daughter to live in the palace, and when you return to your parents' house, you want to relax and relax, do you really have to make your daughter unable to get off the stage like this? ”

Li E relented at this time, and turned to look at her daughter: "Dead girl!" Lost weight again! You said that you are staying in this palace, one person is above ten thousand people, and you are being served with good food and drink, why are you getting thinner and thinner? It's also a shame that your husband is the emperor, if it were someone else, I would definitely go to the door to ask the teacher! ”

Pouting, Zhao Xueji looked pitiful: "Only my mother hurts me like this......"

Looking at her daughter's little eyes, Li E softened her heart even more: "Girl? Wronged? Tell your mother about it! ”

"It's not because of Shan Muxi, that slut! Yesterday, the emperor came to my palace so easily, but she deliberately caused an accident and bluffed the emperor back! Zhao Xueji sighed heavily: "Mother! You are asking me all day long for some secret recipe for having children, do you know that because of Shan Muxi, a fox, the emperor has not touched me until now......"

"The emperor hasn't touched you yet? What does Li Dawei eat? He's your own uncle, can't he even help with that? Li E's face was incredulous.

"Don't mention my own uncle! Mother, I want to ask you, am I your own child? Why is my uncle not close to me at all? He didn't help me, but he actually helped that cheap maid Xianghe to put her in the imperial study to get close to the emperor......"

At the end of the words, Zhao Xueji actually cried, as if she had really suffered a lot in the palace.

"This Li Dawei! I said he was a slave for the rest of his life! It's not good to find a way out for his niece, he can raise his eyebrows, he actually helped outsiders! ”

"Yes, yes!" Zhao Xueji cried even more sadly: "My daughter wants to marry the emperor, and she also wants to wait for me to be full-fledged to shelter our Zhao family from the wind and rain, and let my mother kiss you as a relative of the emperor!" Mother, think about it, if your daughter becomes the queen, which lady in the world can be more noble than your mother? ”

Li E nodded: "Don't mention Li Dawei, he is already so angry that I have a headache." How can you tell your mother how they can help you? You are the daughter of the Taishi Mansion, and your uncle is still a general, I don't believe that you can't compete with those two cheap women! ”

Zhao Xueji explained the intention.

When Li E heard this, she frowned: "I see ...... It's not easy...... You also know that your uncle Li Yi is very powerful and respectful, and he is a very principled person, I don't think he will agree to help us do this! ”

"Mother's ...... We just asked my uncle to give advice to the emperor, not to let him do anything against his conscience! If a woman can really solve such a big problem, it can be regarded as an uncle who thinks about the common people, resolves the crisis, and seeks the well-being of the people! As long as you say it in person, your uncle will definitely agree! ”

Li E frowned: "You let me think about it......"

"What else do you want! Mother, don't you really feel sorry for your daughter? I am a beautiful concubine, but I condescend to a widow! I am the daughter of the Taishi Mansion, and I am the daughter of the first beauty in Yunxi Country! If I can't keep my head up, people won't laugh at me, they will only laugh at you and Daddy! ”

“……”

Zhao Xueji used up the last patience and turned to leave.

Xiao Fangzi followed closely.

Li E originally wanted to leave her daughter at the house for lunch, but seeing that she was so angry, she had no choice but to give up.

But that afternoon, Li E really went to General Li's mansion.

Euphemistically and tactfully made her future clear, Li E looked at her brother with pleading.

General Li Yi has always been unsmiling, and at this time his face is even more majestic: "Sister, didn't my brother say you, did you think about it in your mind when you said these words?" Do you think the emperor will agree to let Shan Meiren go to kiss? ”

“…… Ordinary people say it, the emperor will definitely not agree, but if you go and say it, brother......"

Li E didn't finish speaking, looking at her brother's face.

Li Yi seemed to be a little angry, and glared: "What do you want me to say?" I'll go and tell the emperor, I, a general, are afraid of war, so you give your daughter-in-law to someone else, so that the family will let us go, right? ”
