The Imperial Doctor's words allowed the three of them to get the answers they wanted. Liu Bang was relieved that Qi Ji was fine; Empress Lu was relieved that Qi Ji was not pregnant, and the original tension and worry in her heart disappeared immediately, and a smug look immediately appeared in her eyes, but she quickly returned to calm and indifference. Lu Hou attached his hand to Qi Ji and said with a smile: "Since you are sick, I shouldn't bother you too much, your body is good to live and nourish." With that, Empress Lu turned around and walked out of the hall.

"Queen, walk slowly." Mrs. Qi spoke humbly, and did not dare to say more than half a word, but respectfully stood up on the couch to send off Empress Lu. Empress Lu passed by Liu Bang and stood side by side with him and said, "Mrs. Qi is inconvenient here, and the concubine respectfully invites the emperor to return to Changle Palace." ”

Mrs. Qi's face was indifferent, and she reported that the queen came with the imperial doctor, and she had already thought of the purpose of her coming, Qi Ji respectfully knelt on the couch and unintentionally played with the corners of her clothes, listening attentively to what kind of calculations Empress Lu and Liu Bang were doing, and met Liu Bang's eyes without paying attention, Liu Bang and his four eyes were facing each other for a moment and immediately looked directly at Empress Lu, as if looking for something in her eyes, and Empress Lu's eyes were full of rigidity. Liu Bang narrowed his eyes, paced a few steps in place with his hands on his waist, as if he was unwilling: "Leaving at this time, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?" ”

"Mrs. Qi's health is slightly ill, and the people of the Yuzao Palace are sleepless today, does Your Majesty like to follow sleeplessness?" Empress Lu forcibly suppressed her anger, forced an insincere smile, and her speed of speech gradually became faster, "There are Jing Tian and Zhen'er here, Your Majesty can't rest assured?" On this day, doesn't Your Majesty feel tired? ”

"I've decided that I'm sleepless tonight, so you can go back." Seeing that Empress Lu was unrelenting and complained a little about himself, Liu Bang was very disgusted, and suddenly became angry, and returned to Qi Ji's couch to sit in one step, waving his hand to call Empress Lu back. Qi Ji heard the smell of gunpowder, and bent down even more without saying a word. Empress Lu's heart was rolling, and she stayed where she was silent for a while, the emperor and queen were unhappy, and the eunuchs in the main hall all retreated respectfully. There was a deathly silence in the hall, and Liu Bang exhaled with a dark face. Mrs. Qi behind her hurriedly stabbed him and signaled him not to be angry, but Liu Bang looked at Qi Ji but did not speak. Empress Lu only felt that her chest was dull and blocked, and she felt that something was surging up, so she covered it with her hand, Dai Qing stepped forward to help, and was waved back by Empress Lu, and the expression on her face, which was not gloomy, suddenly darkened. Empress Lu sorted out her emotions and tone, and after planning for a long time, she said coldly, "I heard about a major event recently, is the emperor willing to hear it?" ”

Liu Bang glared at Empress Lu angrily, "Say it bluntly." ”

......Before Empress Lu finished speaking, Liu Bang walked over and held Empress Lu's shoulders with both hands, and looked directly at her with inquiring eyes, but Empress Lu looked at him with the same eyes as he was making a bet.

"What does the queen want to say, Mao Dun Shan Yu, is he going to offend the border again, or is he going to send his daughter into Hu? If he offended the border again, why didn't the border officials send an envoy to the DPRK? Liu Bang filtered these thoughts in his heart from Empress Lu's eyes, and couldn't think of what the queen said Mao Dunshan wanted to do. But he always knew that with the queen's ability, she must know what is important. Seeing Liu Bang's hesitation, Empress Lu said at the right time: "Please move Your Majesty to Changle Palace." Liu Bang wanted to know what Empress Lu wanted to say, but felt that what she said seemed to be out of place, and it was not good to discuss state affairs in the inner palace. Liu Jing has been in the court since he returned from the Xiongnu last year, and has not returned to the Xiongnu. Instead, Liu Bang let go of the hand holding Lu Hou's shoulder, turned around and explained to Mrs. Qi: "You rest, I will come to see you tomorrow." Mrs. Qi said 'um'.

Empress Lu was disgusted by this scene, eager to eat its flesh and eat its skin, and glanced at the woman on the couch with disdain and arrogance. Mrs. Qi saw the queen's hot eyes in the afterglow, and quickly shifted her gaze to look at Liu Bang, and lowered her head and didn't dare to say a word, Liu Bang saw that Qi Ji was scared like this, and looked back at Lu Hou unhappily, and Lu Hou changed her face to meet Liu Bang's gaze with an indifferent and calm face.

"Drive Changle Palace!" Liu Bang threw down a sentence very unhappily, and hurriedly walked out of the hall angrily behind his hands. Lu Hou, who had just walked to the door with Liu Bang, stopped, turned around and stared at Mrs. Qi sharply and fiercely, and the words 'eating meat and skin, one day' echoed in his mind and ears. Mrs. Qi was frightened and didn't dare to look into Empress Lu's eyes.

In Changle Palace, there are only two palace lights that have been extinguished. Among the crowd, only the footsteps of Tuk Tuk were heard, and everyone knew that this footstep was a contradiction that was about to burst out, Liu Bang walked forward alone, without saying a word along the way, and Lu Hou was left behind without saying a word, and followed Liu Bang closely. Dai Qing first took people back and lit the palace lamps in the inner hall of Changxin Palace, and when they suddenly became bright, he took advantage of the situation and waved everyone down. The emperor and queen came in, and Dai Qing saw that neither of them said a word, so he hurried to the apse to make tea. Liu Bang paced in place, sat on the nearby mat, looked at Empress Lu with a gloomy face, and asked urgently, "What did you want to say just now?" ”

Empress Lu didn't want to mention the matter of Mao Dun Shan Yu again, she also thought that the matter of the Xiongnu was a national policy, and she didn't want to intervene at first, but she was forced to do so, so she didn't mention it again. She just wanted to let Liu Bang return to Changle Palace in the name of the Huns, so that the order of respect and humility could exist forever and there would be no more chaos. Empress Lu squatted down and attached her hand to Liu Bang's hand, and looked at her with a soft shallow smile in her eyes, as if she was still the gentle and virtuous Lu Pheasant before, and her tone of voice was also weak, "Your Majesty doesn't need to worry about this matter, it's late at night, the emperor can sleep in peace." Then he shall untie his garments.

Liu Bang was reluctant to come back, and Empress Lu's current statement made him even more annoyed, and Liu Bang immediately became stunned: "You use Mao Dun to make a fool of me? Good intentions. Liu Bang got up and stood aside angrily. Liu Bang's reaction startled Empress Lu, and he was furious for a trivial matter. Lu Hou immediately felt that the person in front of him was cruel and strange, tears swirled in his eyes but did not flow, and he felt disheartened, how many years, how many times did her husband she attach to her disheartened, he was a hostage for him for two years and four months in Xiang Yu's camp, he was not grateful to Dade, and now he is sarcastic about her good intentions. Empress Lu seemed to feel that since Xiang Yu's return to Chang'an in the camp, there was only loneliness and patience left in her life. After knowing that Liu Bang has spoiled a lot of women in the past few years, she gradually changed her personality and rarely talked to people, Liu Bang didn't come to see her for several months, she would have some hatred, the longer she couldn't see Liu Bang, the more she hated him and hated other women, but when she saw him again, that hatred disappeared inexplicably, and she didn't understand her heart for several years. Lu Hou sat paralyzed on the seat, his eyes were empty and silent, and his heart was complicated.

Dai Qing, who had just come out of the tea, couldn't stand it, and hurriedly explained to the queen: "Your Majesty, you blame the queen for being wrong, in fact, it's ......."

"Shut up! How can you interject? Don't the queen's palace people know etiquette? I really don't even understand the rules, go down! Liu Bangzheng had nowhere to get angry, so he scolded Dai Qing in turn.

As soon as the words fell, he heard Lu Hou said coldly, "In November, Mao Dun immediately sent an envoy to send His Majesty to send his daughter to Hu, Mao Dun named the princess A Yuan, Feng Chunjun went to the Xiongnu to conclude a marriage contract, the concubine did not agree to Ah Yuan marrying into the Xiongnu, this time the concubine still did not agree. Besides, Ah Yuan has already married Ao Er, and Yan'er has also hung down, if His Majesty insists on sending Ah Yuan to the Xiongnu, please give the concubine to death. Empress Lu said coldly, without arguing with Liu Bang, the matter of the Huns has reached the point where she has to say, and Empress Lu truthfully said everything she knows. The calmness and quietness between the words, the loss and the coldness, after finishing speaking, Empress Lu no longer cared about the expression on Liu Bang's face at this time, only felt that his heart was as cold as ice, and he didn't even want to look at Liu Bang again. Empress Lu listlessly asked Dai Qing to help him make the couch, then sat on the couch with his head bowed and was silent.

Liu Bang felt that he had spoken too much just now, how could he not have known that he was sorry for his wife Lu Pheasant, but her actions tonight really made him angry, so he said something that hurt her. Liu Bang's words immediately softened: "How did the queen know about this, is Mao Dun really sure?" Will it be changed? Don't play tricks. Liu Bang also went to sit side by side with Empress Lu on the couch, took her left hand, stroked it gently, and gently hugged Empress Lu's shoulder with one hand. This feeling seems familiar, but the hatred in Lu Hou's heart was occupied by the sudden warmth, and he was neglected for too long, and the sudden warmth instantly disintegrated the heart that froze everything. Dai Qing gently closed the door and went out.

Lu Hou looked at Liu Bangyi and said solemnly, "Being able to share the worries of my husband is what I like to do, you and I have been husband and wife for half a lifetime, you need to trust me, so you don't need to say much." Empress Lu buried herself on Liu Bang's shoulder, Liu Bang's sudden warmth did not make her happy, she knew that happiness and beauty would not last long.

"I will never marry Ah Yuan to the Huns." After Liu Bangxiang hugged Lu tightly, he couldn't help but be confused when he thought of the past, and seemed to apologize, "Hold each other for a lifetime, never abandon or leave." ”

Empress Lu was at a loss for a long time and did not express her position, but completely buried herself in Liu Bang's arms, revisiting the inexplicable and slightly familiar strangeness, and suddenly had mixed feelings, her hatred for him was disintegrated again, just because there was still a trace of love and hope for him.

Ichthyamo Palace. Qi Ji lay on the couch for a long time without saying a word, frowning and pondering. Jing Tian dragged the quilt for him, and when he saw that Qi Ji was silent, he asked, "What is Madame pondering?" Qi Ji narrowed her eyes, arrogant and hateful, "The Lu family's methods are profound!" Na Maoton said something, lured His Majesty away, and cheapened her tonight. Jing thought for a long time, chewed Qi Ji's words carefully, and then nodded in response, "The queen is not majestic, and Your Majesty's heart is in Madame." Qi Ji smiled proudly, "Take your majesty and take everything." In an instant, his eyes were sharp and cold, and he commanded Jing Tian, "Quickly check the dishes and chopsticks for tonight's meal, I don't believe that I have a bad stomach." Jing Tian was slightly stunned, and after pondering for a long time, he readily agreed.
