Shen Zhe saluted Min'er, but when he looked up, he saw the little doll running in front of him, Yuan Yuan's bright big eyes were full of curiosity, she was so cute and beautiful, after looking at Shen Zhe, she seemed to be shy and ran back to her mother.

Min'er squatted down and taught her daughter that Shen Zhe was her uncle, but Yuanyuan hadn't even learned her father and queen mother yet, and she only smiled when she spoke late, refusing to call her uncle.

"My daughter is pretty." Xiang Ye was upset on the side, and said to his younger brother, "Your aunt is worried about giving Shen Yun to her, but I don't want to cheapen your fat boy." ”

Shen Zhe smiled: "If Yunshang is serious, the emperor should be careful, she is very difficult."

Min'er listened to this on the sidelines, and was very happy, and it could be seen that the seemingly part between her and Shen Zhe had long since disappeared, this man was really in love with his wife, Yunshang was not in front of him, and no one mentioned her, but the mouth of a husband could not leave his wife.

The emperor laughed a few words, and then said seriously: "Min'er, I have something important to discuss with Shen Zhe, and he can't stay longer, you take Yuan Yuan back first."

Min'er said yes, picked up her daughter and wanted to take her away, but Yuan Yuan babbled and refused to leave, Xiang Ye smiled and said: "It's rare to see each other, hug your niece, so that she can remember you."

The child is in Min'er's arms, if Shen Zhe wants to hug it, he may have to take it from Min'er's hands, such a move between uncle and sister-in-law is inappropriate, Min'er consciously put the child on the ground, Shen Zhe walked up and lifted the little niece up with a gentle hug.

was lifted so high, Yuan Yuanle was broken, the child will like the strong and powerful arms, it is not easy for her to go again, but it can't prevent the emperor from discussing important matters with Shen Zhe, in the cry of her daughter, Min'er forcibly took the child away.

Shen Zhe listened to the crying and looked at his niece away, with a loving smile on his face, Xiang Ye asked on the side: "It's been almost two years, and my wife and children are not around, you can't hear Shen Yun shouting Daddy, you should complain in your heart."

"Nothing." Shen Zhe resolutely said, "It is also my dream to build a strong army for the emperor, and you will be able to send Yunshang to me after a while. ”

Xiang Ye smiled: "But I can't bear to see you all year round, you have long forgotten about me now." Saying that he and his younger brother entered the door, the important matter they discussed, there may not be a third person who knows about it, and even Min'er will not hear half a word.

And she wasted a lot of energy when she coaxed her crying daughter well, and promised the child a lot of words, so the proud princess was willing not to cry, Min'er nodded her daughter's head: "Who are you with?"

Qingya smiled on the side: "The princess picked up the emperor and the mother's goodness, and she saved it all on her body."

"The good ones are mine, and the bad ones are all the emperor." Min'er said domineeringly, "The emperor may not have a son after giving birth, but the daughters are going to heaven, and I don't know what they will become when they grow up in the future." I hope that in a few years, the world will be peaceful, and the emperor can let me send them to Yuanzhou to learn some truths from my great-grandmother. ”

Qingya saw that the little princess was no longer pestering the queen, so she went to fetch the letter, which was just delivered, Min'er looked at it under the lamp casually, and smiled coldly: "Qin Wenyue is pregnant."

Qingya said: "If you look at it normally, she is also a blessed person."

Min'er put the letter away: "It's a pity that she gave birth to the wrong family and went the wrong way, pity her child."

Qingya asked softly, "Will Niangniang attack that child?"

Min'er said: "The queen just has nothing to do, let her be born and leave it to the queen to raise." And there is no shortage of princes to inherit the throne in Zanxi, I think the people in Zanxi do not want to let a child born to a Han woman become a new generation of monarchs, her life is not necessarily easy, the women of the harem have no way to take her, and their ministers and clansmen are not easy to deal with. ”

"Although the slave and maid are not helping Qin Wenyue to speak, but the ministers everywhere love to take care of the royal affairs, obviously it is the emperor's own family's business, how to look at the faces of the ministers, our emperor is too, and so are you." Qingya smiled, "What kind of delicate relationship is there between monarchs and ministers? ”

Min'er smiled indifferently: "Interests."

Qingya sighed: "Interests are really crushing, you don't have a prince yet, Concubine Shu is so wary of you."

Min'er didn't care: "Why didn't I watch out for her?" In fact, your concubine Niangniang is very smart, she is firmly on the right path, she understands very well that once she deviates from the road, everything will be over, as long as she does not do evil, I and the emperor can not do anything to her, wait and wait, and wait until one day to realize her wish. It's just that such days are too difficult, if it were me, I wouldn't be able to live a day, why wouldn't she let herself go. ”

"The concubine must hope that you will never have a prince."

"The prince?" Min'er smiled, "I see that your emperor's mind doesn't care about men and women at all." ”

Qingya was stunned, as if she understood, but she felt that it was impossible no matter what, if the emperor passed the throne to his daughter regardless of men and women, wouldn't it be to turn the sky upside down.

Min'er walked to the window and looked out the window at the unfathomable mountains under the moonlight, even when it was dawn, she couldn't see and guess what kind of stories there were in the mountains, she said lazily: "Your Majesty, it seems that you are planning something big."

Qing Yashang didn't know that Shen Zhe was also here, so she only smiled and said: "Since the first time the slave maid saw the emperor in the Xuanzheng Palace, the emperor has major events every year, and the slave and maid are used to it."

Min'er smiled: "Yes, he seems to be the god of war, and all that is churning in his bones is gunsmoke and war."

In the days that followed, Min'er never saw Shen Zhe again, he came and went without a trace, would he go around the capital to take a look at Yunshang, Min'er couldn't guess, the emperor didn't mention this brother again, he was still very busy, but after that, ministers began to come to Pingshan, Min'er could only take her daughter to go over the mountains and mountains to the town below the mountain, and often bring some wild fruits or snacks back to the emperor, but also leisurely.

In the blink of an eye, spring returned to the earth, the emperor and queen returned from Pingshan as promised, Min'er was nourished by the aura of heaven and earth here, and as she grew older, she became more and more beautiful and more and more graceful, just getting down from the sedan chair, holding the hand of the little princess and slowly stepping forward, that every move made the harem concubines red-eyed.

After all, the queen is a person in the clouds, and the high clouds are stacked for her by the emperor himself.

In the Longevity Palace, Min'er came to ask the Queen Mother for peace, not seen for more than two months, the granddaughters have grown up a lot, the Queen Mother was happy to see the child, but from time to time she glanced at Min'er, the eyes fell on the queen's stomach, more than two months, the emperor and queen were grinding in the hot springs in Pingshan, was there no movement at all?

Min'er saw her mother-in-law's thoughts, and only smiled helplessly in her heart, and soon Shuguifei arrived, the second prince did not come in the study, Hao'er followed her mother, and the brothers and sisters immediately played together when they saw it, and they were very lively.

Mama Lin brought someone to serve tea, the queen and the concubine sat on both sides, the queen mother looked at this and that, the two of them looked very harmonious, but I don't know if they were too careful, or if this is the case, this aura that cannot be integrated together at all makes people feel worried.

Just waiting for the queen and Shuguifei to leave, the queen mother asked Mama Lin what she thought, and Mama Lin also covered her heart at the door and said: "The slaves and maids don't dare to take a second look, not to mention that the queen has always had that temperament, what happened to Shuguifei in the past two months, she looks the same on weekdays, but today it seems to be a different person."

The Queen Mother was anxious: "Do you think something will happen?"

Mama Lin comforted her: "Maybe this change of Concubine Shu will be a good thing?"

But I can't wait for anything good in the harem, the court is lively first, as soon as the emperor comes back, he receives an urgent report from Xiping Mansion, the Zanxi people and the Liang State have clashed, both countries have sent troops to confront each other on the border, once they ignite the flames of war, the situation of Daqi will be very embarrassing, and now the two countries are at odds, and it is a matter of time before the two countries go to war.

With the emperor's position, he should not interfere in either place, but that morning, Xiang Ye asked the ministers to make a choice, saying that Daqi could not turn a blind eye, and one word stirred up a thousand waves, and the ministers were dissatisfied with the emperor's belligerent personality for a long time. Why not let the two countries fight and lose both sides and reap the benefits of the fisherman, but the emperor insisted that they make a choice, and there were complaints for a while.

At this juncture, Shen Zhe left the Qiangshui Pass, crossed half of the Great Qi from south to north, and returned to Jizhou, where he had been away for many years, standing under the city gate, the past is vivid.

Qin Zhuang rushed from the city to greet him, and said nervously and unexpectedly: "Why are you here, you just came, not afraid that the emperor will hold you accountable for leaving your post without permission?"

Shen Zhe smiled: "I handed the emperor a fold, saying that I want to go back to my hometown to have a look."

Qin Zhuang looked at his cousin suspiciously, looked at the scattered few soldiers behind him, raised his hand and led the way: "Come, brother will take you home."
