Who can make the queen of the middle palace powerless?

Pei's immortal achievements in the founding of the Great Liang Dynasty, Pei Yaowei himself, and Xiao Zhu's absolute help to ascend the throne, won the emperor's love. At that time, in this imperial palace, the queen mother and queen mother lost power, and the queen mother only had a grievance in front of her.

The eldest princess was stunned and asked with a little uncertainty, "...... Yu, you're saying that you won't let the heirs of the harem be born, right...... Emperor? ”

Pei Yao laughed weakly.

Yes, who would believe such a big unfilial thing that cuts off one's bloodline?

As a junior, when she grows up, most of them report good news and not bad news, and she doesn't want her aunt to worry about it. What's more, she is the queen - whether she wants to be or not, since she has already sat in this son, it is her duty to protect the harem, who wants to admit her incompetence?

However, at that time, she really had no choice.

She naively expected someone to be able to take care of Xiao Zhu and cut off his hurtful thoughts, and looking at the entire Xiao royal family, the only one who has this weight and can make Xiao Zhu completely careless, is the eldest princess.

But in the end, in the Changqiu Palace, in the face of the eldest princess's questioning, Xiao Zhu was indifferent.

He told his aunt in a firm tone: "Before the birth of the prince in the middle palace, I don't want anyone's children." ”

In the face of such a crazy Xiao Zhu, Pei Yaowei finally compromised - there are always so many women in the harem who are trying to have children, and she can't watch those children die one by one at the hands of her biological father, so all she can do in the end is to agree to Xiao Cha against her will and give him a child.

So, in the fourth year of Yanping, the middle palace was happy, and the dragon face was happy. And after that......

"Why is there only one here?"

A sudden voice woke up Pei Yaowei, who was trapped in his memories. As soon as she was excited, she looked back and saw Xiao Di standing not far behind her at some point.

She hurriedly sorted out her emotions and got up and bowed: "...... His Royal Highness the King of Chu. ”

At this moment, she was in the small pavilion in the garden near Heshou Palace, and she was in a state of turmoil, so she casually found a place to meditate alone. Xiao Di saw her turn around, although there were no tears in her eyes, but the circles under her eyes were red, obviously she was sad about something.

He frowned imperceptibly, glanced in the direction of Heshou Palace, and asked, "Have you just seen the queen mother?" ”

Pei Yaowei lowered her head and replied respectfully: "Yes, Shicai came with my sister to greet the Queen Mother." ”

He paused for a moment, "Queen Mother...... Sorry for you? ”

Pei Yao was stunned for a moment, and looked up at him, not knowing how he could have such an idea.

She didn't have time to explain for a while, but Xiao Di thought she was right. He seemed to have a momentary distress, and immediately said to her, "Not anymore." ”

"What......" Pei Yaowei was too surprised at this moment, and said anxiously: "Your Highness misunderstood, the Queen Mother treats her courtiers very well." The courtiers are ...... I think of some things from the past, and I just feel it. Let His Highness smile. ”

Xiao Di was silent for a moment, and he didn't know whether he believed it or not, and finally only put down a sentence stubbornly: "It's good if you don't have it." ”

He was thinking that when Pei Yao was here, the queen mother and her had always been at odds with her, and now the person in front of him is like an old man, if the queen mother is angry, it is not necessary.

I just don't want to, but I don't want to.

Xu is Xiao Di's words were too much for her to expect, and this interruption, for a while, the depression that was blocked in her heart dissipated a lot.

Especially, at this time, she remembered that in the matter of Mrs. Zuo earlier, the person in front of her helped her, and she felt a little awkward. After thinking about it, she solemnly thanked him: "The last time I was at home, and the life-saving grace to my sister, the courtiers have always wanted to thank you in person, but there is no chance, it is rare to see it today, please accept the courtier's gift." ”

As she spoke, she was about to kneel, but was stopped by Xiao Di's tight arm.

Pei Yao just wanted to avoid his touch, but Xiao Di had already withdrawn his hand first.

He said lightly: "Standing up for you is the face of the king himself." As for your sister, it was saved by Mr. Yiyuan, and this king doesn't want to take the credit of others, you have to thank him, just thank him. ”

The former sentence still makes some sense, but what about the latter sentence......

"If that's the case," she smiled lightly, and said, "The peace of the country and the people is the work of the civil and military at each level, and it cannot be regarded as the merit of the people; In addition to the people who practice physically, isn't it true that all those who are respected once they become superiors, they will all become wine bags and rice bags, and they only know how to point fingers? ”

For a long time, I only heard him smile but not laugh, and sneered: "It's not a small courage." ”

Pei Yao lowered her head and smiled, but after all, she took a step back, knelt down and said the big gift of thanks to him.

She said, "Your Highness's kindness, I will remember." ”

As for hate......

Her eyes sank.

This time when she entered the palace, Pei Yaowei did not stay overnight, and returned to the mansion that night.

After Mrs. Zuo's incident, Xiangying temporarily got an errand and went out of Beijing for a few days, but it happened that he came back today.

As soon as Pei Yaowei entered the mansion, she was told by Yu Zhi, who came out to greet her, that the prince had been waiting for her in her courtyard for a while.

"Third brother has been waiting for a long time!" Rushing back to the room with doubts, in the warm pavilion, she gave Xiangying a salute, and asked: "The third brother doesn't come to me often, but what's the matter?" ”

Xiang Ying was dressed in regular clothes, holding a volume of "The World Says New Words" that she casually put on the case, and when she saw her come in, she moved her eyes to her and measured it quietly for a long time.

He had asked Yu Xu to record her daily life and behavior for a long time, and now goodbye, the thought in his heart couldn't help but be much more vivid.

She's probably not a match.

Sitting down casually, he asked, "Sister Ah summoned you to the palace today, can I embarrass you for Mrs. Zuo's affairs?" ”

Almost meaning, this is the second inquiry that Pei Yaowei listened to today.

She said in her heart, she doesn't know what luck she has gone today, why do you care about yourself like this?

Thinking so, she still said to Xiangying gently, the eldest sister treats herself as always, but the sisters see each other as usual.

Xiangying didn't believe it.

If the eldest sister doesn't worry about such a thing, if she doesn't worry about it, then she won't be the eldest sister. He was in a hurry on an errand, and he didn't have time to tell the eldest sister what happened, so he kept in mind, who expected that as soon as he came back today, Xizhu told him that Niangniang summoned the four girls into the palace, just today.

"Mrs. Zuo's matter, you don't have to think about it." After a moment's hesitation, he told her.

So, Pei Yaowei really didn't think about it anymore.

"The fan face that promised the third brother before-" She said, and glanced at Yu Xu, who understood, and went to the study, "It just so happens that you came over today, so you can also see if you are satisfied." ”

After a while, Yu Xu handed the fan over, and the baby was in the eye, and his eyes did not move for a long time.

"Your freehand painting is excellent." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at her, "In a woman's hand, you are the second one I have ever seen that can draw so well." ”

Pei Yaowei was slightly stunned, and wanted to ask him who the first one was, but somehow, she intuitively felt that it was best not to ask.

She smiled faintly and only thanked the third brother for the compliment.

The baby's eyes deepened.

At this time, the maids brought up all kinds of freshly steamed snacks, and Xiangying asked her if she would like to help her paint another painting.

Pei Yaowei instructed Yu Xu to bring the box, turned around and smiled with Xiang Ying: "It's just a pen, I'm afraid that the third brother will be disappointed." ”

"Oh?" He asked: "I don't remember, you only learned freehand, don't you know how to write?" ”

Pei Yaowei was a little vigilant in her heart, but she didn't take it seriously, and while taking the square red agate box handed over by Yu Xu, she said, "It's not that it won't." ”

"It's just that the work is too careful and complicated, the little sister is not patient, and she loses nine out of ten paintings, so she won't lose this person!"

What she said later, Xiangying didn't pay attention to it.

The painting is too careful and complicated, the little sister is not patient, and nine out of ten paintings are defeated......

It is a matter of no doubt that such a thing will not be uttered.

"You ......" for a long time, Xiang Ying retracted her senses, and when she turned her head and was about to speak, her eyes fell on her hand, and when she landed, the whole person was suddenly startled and stood up.

This frightened the maids who were waiting on the side.

"Third brother?" Pei Yaowei was also a little shocked, she slowly put down the dim sum box she was filling in her hand, and asked inexplicably, "Third brother, what's wrong?" ”

Xiang Ying didn't speak—or rather, his throat seemed to be clenched, and at this moment, he looked at the agate box, and then looked at the 'Xiang Yu' in front of him, but he couldn't say a word.

Pei Yao watched Xiang Ying turn around and go away like a ghost, and after a moment of confusion, her heart began to feel uneasy.

He...... Could it be that something was discovered?

Xiang Ying's steady temperament, he has not met such a gaffe for ten years, but she has no idea the reason for his gaffe.

What could it be for?

She thought over what she had done, and had no clue.

On the other end, Xiang Ying went back to Jiusizhai on a rampage, and the whole person seemed to have experienced life and death.

Pale face, gasping for breath like suffocation, heart beating like a drum.

Xizhu was taken aback by his appearance.

"Shizi, what's wrong with you!"

What's wrong......

Xiangying reached out and grabbed it twice, grabbed Xizhu's arm, and held it tightly.

He asked with a straight gaze: "Xizhu, this is a dream...... Or is it real? ”

Xizhu was about to cry urgently, and told him vigorously that this was true, and naturally it was true.

But Xiangying didn't dare to believe it.

Is this true?

The truth is that his half-sister should have been vicious, good at writing, and scheming. But somehow, all of a sudden, she was much kinder, and she began to think that the pen was troublesome, but she was able to paint a handful of freehand to the essence of the old way.

Somehow, she would watch "The World Speaks New Words".

Somehow, she would use the treasure as a snack box, and she would change her mind to put the dim sum in all kinds of ways.

- Just like the queen mother back then?
