At this time, the internal official was extremely frightened, and hurriedly ran forward to grab Luo Xuan.

Luo Xuan pretended to be high: "What else is the matter with the internal officials?" ”

The internal official looked flattering: "General, the old slave was so moved when he saw the general's true temperament towards the county lord, I believe that the queen will also understand the general's love for his sister." He also invited the general and the county lord to move to the Ronghe Hall and follow the old slave to meet the queen. ”

Guo Xiaoxiao sat on the horse and got into the car, without saying a word. The internal official looked at Luo Xuan again, Luo Xuan frowned, and thought for a while before saying, "Since that's the case, then I'll make it difficult for him to go." ”

Neiguang was re-released, and hurriedly made a "please" gesture. Luo Xuan walked to the carriage, bent down slightly, and stretched out a hand to Guo Xiaoxiao. Guo Xiaoxiao saw Luo Xuan's head through the tulle, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this younger brother regards her as the most important person in front of him!

Guo Xiaoxiao got up, got out of the car with Luo Xuan's hand gently, and whispered to Luo Xuan at the same time: "I didn't know that Brother Xuan would play such a slippery head." ”

Luo Xuan lowered his eyebrows and smiled: "There are many things that Sister Chang doesn't know." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and entered the palace gate. The internal officials had to look back at Guo Xiaoxiao and Luo Xuan every few steps, and they didn't dare to take a slow step, let alone go fast. Guo Xiaoxiao dragged the long skirt, so he walked slowly, while Luo Xuan stayed by Guo Xiaoxiao's side, keeping up with Guo Xiaoxiao's pace.

Although the internal official didn't like the behavior of the two people, he didn't dare to say a word, and nodded and led the two in.

In front of the Zhironghe Palace, Guo Xiaoxiao saw seven or eight palace maids with a very well-proportioned height and figure standing in front of the door. Guo Xiaoxiao said to Luo Xuan: "In the end, it is in the palace, and even the temperament of the female envoy is different from ours." ”

"The first thing in Daming Palace is the treasure, and the second most is the woman."

Guo Xiaoxiao smiled lightly, and then the internal official said: "The main hall cannot be armed, please take off the armor and blade." ”

Luo Xuan took off his armor without hesitation, this was originally to prevent someone from raiding halfway, but now it should not be needed, so he handed it over to the internal official along with the sword.

The internal official let him go, Guo Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, puffed up his chest, smiled, and walked in calmly. This is the first time she has met the queen mother, representing the Luo family, and she can't embarrass Luo Xuan.

"Baoyi meets the queen mother!" Guo Xiaoxiao bowed three times and bowed nine times, kneeling in front of the queen.

"The last general will meet the queen mother!" Luo Xuan also knelt down.

"How did you come? Hongu has been waiting for you for a while, so get up quickly. ”

The voice of the queen mother carries the spirit of a middle-aged person, which is particularly powerful, and can give people a sense of security while also frustrating countless people. Guo Xiaoxiao's clothes were inconvenient, and it was a little difficult to get up, so a strong hand picked her up.

Guo Xiaoxiao turned his head and smiled at Luo Xuan, and looked up to see the woman on the stage, this is the * of the Ming Dynasty, the first lady! The graceful demeanor is completely worthy of the phoenix crown, and the smiling queen gives people a warm feeling. Guo Xiaoxiao no longer knows whether they are friends or foes at this moment.

"Give a seat." The Queen's voice was always so calm.

The two female envoys brought chairs over and quickly retreated.

The queen said: "I have long heard that the lord of Baoyi is as gentle as water and has an outstanding temperament. ”

Guo Xiaoxiao got up and thanked him and said, "Niangniang praised it." ”

"Luo Xuan has made great contributions to the imperial court recently, and Your Majesty often praises you in front of me."

Guo Xiaoxiao noticed a place where the queen's self-title was suddenly replaced by "I" instead of the previous "main palace". Guo Xiaoxiao said secretly, if the queen is not pretending to be a corporal Lixian, she is really willing to put down the queen's shelf in front of them.

Luo Xuan arched his hand and said: "It is the duty of your subordinates to share the worries of Your Majesty and the Queen Mother. ”

The queen sighed: "To have descendants like you, I think Zhenguo Gong Jiuquan can also be comfortable." ”

Guo Xiaoxiao said secretly, my great-grandfather has been dead for so many years, do you remember him now?

"During the reign of Zhenguo Gong, he dreamed of sleeping at night, self-denial, and compassion for the people, and many people in the capital praised him. Even when I heard about the prestige of Zhenguo Gong when I was young, I also wanted to meet this famous figure in history. ”

Guo Xiaoxiao said: "Niangniang's mother is in the world, and your great achievements are unparalleled." ”

"Baoyi Hui Lanxin, if only I could have children like you by my side."

Guo Xiaoxiao raised his head to meet the queen's eyes, and the queen continued: "I only have two daughters under my knees, the eldest princess died at the age of three, and the second princess married to Tibet. Although the sons are filial, they are not as intimate as the daughters......"

The queen's eyes turned red as she spoke, and after the queen eased up a little, Guo Xiaoxiao said: "Niangniang is auspicious, and there is the blessing of God, what Niangniang said will be." ”

"Then I'll borrow your good words." The queen smiled at Guo Xiaoxiao.

Guo Xiaoxiao shuddered, her heartbeat skipped a beat, and a bad premonition came to her heart.

At this time, a female envoy stepped in and said, "Qi Yu Niangniang, the second prince asks to see you." ”

"Oh?" The queen looked surprised, "Spread quickly!" ”

Guo Xiaoxiao looked at Luo Xuan, his face full of doubts and panic. Luo Xuan looked at her with gentle eyes, signaling her to relax, she would be fine.

A man in a golden robe walked in. Guo Xiaoxiao looked at the man's figure, his figure did not look burly, but he was very strong, and his hair was tied up with a golden crown, which looked neat; The facial features follow the queen's mother, giving people an easy-going feeling, but the face seems to be sharpened with edges and corners, and the facial features are very three-dimensional; This should be up to Your Majesty.

"Sons meet the queen mother!" The second prince bowed deeply.

Guo Xiaoxiao and Luo Xuanyang also stood up and saluted.

"My son, get up quickly." The queen ordered a seat and asked, "Why are you so diligent today?" ”

"What did the Queen Mother say? How did the sons become attentive? The second prince smiled.

"I haven't seen you running to the queen mother on weekdays!" The queen mother teased, "Didn't you hear a rumor that I have a fairy lord here?" ”

The second prince bowed his head and said: "Erchen did hear about it, but it was on the way here." ”

"Poor mouth!" The queen said angrily.

The second prince smiled, and after a while, he said, "Erchen also brought a gift." ”

"You're here to give a gift?" The queen was surprised.

"It's also idle to leave things unused, so it's better to give them to someone meaningful." The second prince replied.

The internal officials of the second prince immediately walked in and put the things in front of Guo Xiaoxiao and Luo Xuan.

The second prince approached Luo Xuan and said: "The people take food as the sky, and this prince thinks that General Luo is out on the march, and often can't even solve the problem of three meals and food, so he asked for this white jade bowl from the queen mother, hoping that General Luo will eat well and sleep well every day." ”

Luo Xuan stood up and arched his hand and said, "Thank you for the gift of the second prince, the last general will definitely continue to serve the imperial court." ”

The eyes of the second prince turned to Guo Xiaoxiao, and Guo Xiaoxiao got up without waiting for the second prince to speak. I heard that the queen mother loved the second prince like a heaven-sent treasure, and Guo Xiaoxiao respected him even more.

"These silver ear ornaments were also requested from my mother, and the canary motif on them is very suitable for you. I give it to you today, and I want you to ...... I hope you understand my heart and that of the Queen Mother. The second prince took out a bright yellow waist card from his waist and said, "This is the palace order, and it will be given to you as well." You can go in and out of the palace gate at will with it. ”

Guo Xiaoxiao shirked and said: "No merit is not accepted, Baoyi can't accept the gift of the second prince." ”

The second prince smiled: "Luo Xuandu has already accepted it, how can you not accept it?" ”

When Luo Xuan heard this, he secretly scolded himself for not taking it just now. It may be that it has become a habit to accept the royal family's rewards, and I take it when I give it, and I forget about it.

Guo Xiaoxiao glanced at Luo Xuan and said: "Brother Xuan is a general who protects the country and has made great contributions to the imperial court, but Baoyi has never made meritorious contributions. ”

"Then I'll give you the opportunity to make meritorious contributions." The second prince stuffed the waist card into Guo Xiaoxiao's hand, "You take it and often go into the palace to talk to the queen." You don't know what the lonely widow looks like in the night of my mother, I feel distressed when I look at it. If you accompany the queen to take a stroll and relax, you are making meritorious contributions. ”

"This ......" Guo Xiaoxiao looked at Luo Xuan anxiously.

"No! The second prince can't! Luo Xuan arched his hand.

"Why not!" The second prince glanced at the queen on the high seat and said with a smile, "You should be considerate and considerate of my queen mother." ”

The queen also said: "Baoyi and Luo Xuan, don't shirk anymore, I am usually very lonely, if Baoyi is free, come to the palace to talk to me, and comfort me, an old man who is half cut into the ground." ”

"Then it's settled." The second prince smiled flatteringly at Guo Xiaoxiao, and then bowed deeply to the queen, "The gift has been delivered, and the retainer has retired!" ”

Guo Xiaoxiao and Luo Xuan couldn't speak of their suffering, so they could only bow down and send the second prince away.

The queen smiled satisfactorily: "I ordered the imperial chef to prepare a feast, and Baoyi and Luo Xuan will come with me to the table." ”

Guo Xiaoxiao thought to himself, anyway, it was already a foregone conclusion, so why not stay in the palace for a while and a half, so he simply sat down to eat. Luo Xuan smiled helplessly at Guo Xiaoxiao and sat down with him.

It was already afternoon after eating, and the sun was a little sunny. Guo Xiaoxiao came out of the Ronghe Palace, saw the sun above his head, and sighed in disgust. Luo Xuan sensed her discomfort and was about to take off her coat to shield Guo Xiaoxiao from the sun, when a call came from behind her.

"County Lord! Checkmate! Please stay! A female envoy ran towards Guo Xiaoxiao and the others, holding an oil-paper umbrella in her hand.

Guo Xiaoxiao and Luo Xuan stopped, and the female envoy said: "Niangniang said that the sun is a little hot today, so I specially ordered the slave maid to send an oil-paper umbrella for the two, please accept it." ”

Luo Xuan and Guo Xiaoxiao glanced at each other, took the oil-paper umbrella, and said, "Thank you for me." ”

"Yes, the slave will definitely bring the words. If the general and the lord of the county have no other orders, the slave and maid will go back to their lives. ”

Guo Xiaoxiao looked at the honest and lovely figure of the female envoy and sighed: "Niangniang deserves to be *!" ”

"yes." Luo Xuan opened the umbrella, held Guo Xiaoxiao's waist, and said softly, "Let's go!" ”
