At the end of the afternoon, Empress Lu felt bored in the palace, and walked around the nullah for a while in the company of Dai Qing, thinking left and right and feeling that it was still inappropriate, she thought about it and felt that what Dai Qing said made sense, she couldn't be defeated, Mrs. Qi had already found Lu Jia to be the acting king's concubine, and she was going to act, not for October's wine, but for a longer-term plan. Empress Lu didn't believe that Liu Bang and Mrs. Qi really had the courage to ask the ministers to turn to them, anyway, it was okay now, it was better to go to the Taifu, she decided to find Zhang Zifang.

Empress Lu was about to ask someone to prepare some treasures, fruits, and local products, and then ask a few palace maids to accompany her. When he was about to leave, an unknown little palace maid hurriedly came to report the good news, panting and smiling, "Niangniang, Niangniang, Princess Lu Yuan is here." ”

As soon as Empress Lu heard that Princess Lu Yuan was coming, she was immediately overjoyed, with a rare smile on her face, and couldn't wait to point to the palace maid and ask, "Ah Yuan is here, where is she?" ”

"Just wait at Changxin Palace."

Empress Lu waved her hand and told her to go down, and Dai Qing also came to Empress Lu's side and said with a smile, "Niangniang, the princess is here, you won't be lonely." ”

Empress Lu burst into tears and nodded excitedly. Since marrying Zhang Ao, it has been rare to see her daughter, she is far away in Zhao State, and she has not seen her all year round, and that lovely granddaughter Zhang Yan, is she okay? Grown up? The more Empress Lu thought about it, the more excited she became, and Dai Qing was also moved to cry.

"Go back to Changle Palace." Empress Lu put aside the matter of visiting the Liuhou Mansion and couldn't wait to go back to Changxin Palace first.

In the Changxin Palace, I saw a woman with a delicate face and a gorgeous Hanfu waiting in the main hall with a little girl about four or five years old. They quietly looked at everything in the Changxin Palace, looked around the things in the Changxin Palace, and the woman nodded slightly, and muttered alone, "It hasn't changed, it was like this when I came last time, and the queen mother really misses the old." With her right hand, she pulled the little girl next to her and smiled, she was the eldest princess of the Great Han Lu Yuan.

"Mother, grandmother, why doesn't she see us?" The little girl raised her head and asked her mother beside her, looking extremely cute, and her demeanor was elegant and general. Although she looks like she is four or five years old, she knows at a glance that she is also a beauty when she grows up, her whole body is full of exquisiteness, and her bright eyes are flashing like spring water and starlight.

"My grandmother is out, and she will come to see us in a while, and Ah Yan will call her grandmother later, don't be rude." Princess Lu Yuan leaned over to meet her eyes, said to her with a smile, and pinched her cute pink cheeks.

Both mother and daughter laughed.

"The queen mother is happy forever." Empress Lu hurriedly entered the main hall, and the palace maids in the palace saw Empress Lu all bowing and kneeling, and Empress Lu didn't care about the palace maids' kneeling and saluting, but just stood there crying with joy and looked at the familiar back. Princess Lu Yuan heard the sound of salutation, and immediately turned her head, but she was already in tears, and tears blurred her vision.

Empress Lu on the opposite side was also in tears, and the two stood opposite each other a few meters away for a long time, no one spoke, just let the tears flow, and suddenly a wave of emotion filled the inside and outside of the hall. The hearts of the people in the hall who watched it were broken, and the palace maids also cried, and Dai Qing had already cried into tears.

"A-Yuan."

"The Queen Mother."

After a burst of bitter tears, Empress Lu and the princess called each other at the same time, and the impulse of not seeing each other for a long time made the two of them rush towards the atrium of the hall, and hugged each other tightly in the atrium of the main hall.

Empress Lu hugged her beloved daughter tightly, caressed her back and whispered, "Ah Yuan, let the queen mother think about it so much." After saying it over and over again, he refused to let go of his daughter, and cried again while stroking and caressing.

Princess Lu Yuan also hugged her mother tightly, put her head sideways on her mother's shoulders and stroked her back with both hands, tears wet the placket of Lu Hou's clothes, and she muttered with joy in tears, "Ah Yuan also misses the queen mother, I really miss the queen mother." ”

The mother and daughter hugged each other tightly under everyone, touching all the people in the hall, Dai Qing waved his hand to tell everyone else to go down, and he was ready to go out.

At this time, the mother and daughter sorted out their emotions again, gently helped each other well, and Empress Lu wiped her tears for Princess Lu Yuan, and the princess also wiped her tears for Empress Lu, and the mother and daughter burst into tears and laughed.

"Dai Qing." The princess held Lu Hou with her hand, looked at Dai Qing who was about to go out, and called her.

Dai Qing responded, and then retreated, ready to salute the princess, but was helped up by the princess with an arrow step, "Dai Qing doesn't need to be polite, please get up." ”

After Dai Qing thanked the princess, she looked at Empress Lu, and Empress Lu motioned for her to stay. She went to make tea for the princess and Empress Lu.

At this time, she had forgotten little Zhang Yan, she saw that her mother and grandmother were crying individually, and felt inexplicable, so she dragged her mother's clothes and signaled the princess not to forget her.

The princess remembered her daughter for a moment, so she squatted down and picked her up, hugged her to her side, and showed her, "Queen Mother." ”

Zhang Yancan's starry eyes blinked smartly, looking at her grandmother in front of her, she only felt that she was very strange, and quietly tilted her head to look at Empress Lu. Seeing that Xiao Zhang Yan was not called grandmother, the princess was so anxious, "Yan'er should call her grandmother." He patted her on the waist with his hand.

Empress Lu smiled, "It's okay, child, I haven't been unfamiliar for a few years, I'll just be with her for a while, and make sure she pesters me all day long." He opened his hands to hug her, "Come, Yan'er, let grandmother hug her." ”

It's also strange to say, Xiao Zhang Yan was obediently handed to Queen Lu along her mother's hand, and she didn't cry, but just stared at her grandmother with big eyes, and only spoke for a while, and said abruptly, "Grandmother, you are old." ”

Hearing this, it really shocked the people in the temple, and the childlike words were unscrupulous. Lu Hou first looked embarrassed for a while, looked at the princess, and then laughed, gently pinched her little pink cheek, kissed her little cheek, and murmured, "Yan'er is so cute, it's really grandmother's little heart." ”

When Empress Lu saw her daughter and granddaughter, she was so happy and carefree, as if only her beloved affection could make her feel happy.

"Come on, come here, it's not good to talk while standing, let's sit and talk." Empress Lu asked the princess to sit down with her to the side of the case, took a soft mat for the princess, and held Xiao Zhang Yan in her arms.

Dai Qing also made tea and brought it over, slowly put it on several cases, and poured a cup of tea for the queen and the princess. Then stand aside and wait for commands.

The princess nodded to her and smiled, and then chatted with Empress Lu again.

"Queen Mother, it's been good lately." The princess took a sip of tea and asked happily.

Empress Lu's face sank, and she smiled as if she had something on her mind, "Okay, good." "It's not very good to say.

The princess was afraid that she saw her mother's face turn from sunny to cloudy, so she glanced at Dai Qing beside her, and Dai Qing also lowered her head. Lu Yuan guessed seventy-seven eighty-eight, and asked worriedly, "The queen mother is not good?" ”

Empress Lu pretended to be strong and smiled, "No." Then he took her hand, wanting to interrupt the topic, so he asked, "Ah Yuan, have you seen your father?" ”

The princess shook her head, pouting and coquettishly, "No, A-Yuan misses the queen mother the most, and when he arrives in Chang'an, he goes straight to the queen mother's Changle Palace, and he has never seen his father, thinking that maybe his father will be in the mother's harem, so he can see the queen mother and his father, but when he arrives in Changle Palace, you are not there." ”

Empress Lu nodded slightly, raised her eyes and looked for something in the hall, looked left and right, and asked, "Ao'er, didn't you come?" ”

Ao Er is Zhang Ao, the king of Zhao, his father Zhang Er with the ancestor Liu Bang to fight the world, Liu Bang named his Zhao King, after his death, his son Zhang Ao inherited the title, married the eldest princess of Lu Yuan, gave birth to a daughter Zhang Yan, and gave birth to a son Zhang Yan.

"He didn't come with me, maybe he would arrive the day after tomorrow, my daughter wanted to see her mother and left early, and he didn't want to disturb her mother and father so early, and he couldn't pester me, so he had to send someone to protect me all the way." Speaking of this, the princess looked a little shy, her face was full of a woman's happy smile, it seemed that Zhang Ao was still good to the princess.

Lu Houzhi nodded, his eyes full of envy, "It seems that Ao Er is good to you, as long as he knows that he is good to you, you will be happy." ”
