When the queen heard the emperor say this, the expression on her face froze for a moment, and the queen mother knew that it must be the harem matter that caused the emperor again, so she didn't speak, but sandwiched a piece of her favorite dish for Qin Changning, "You, why did you let your imperial aunt send you over on such a cold day?" The imperial grandmother asked Qingyun to send a soft sedan chair to pick you up. ”

Qin Changning raised his eyes and glanced at the emperor and queen who were embarrassed because of the queen mother's words, pursed his lips and smiled, put down his chopsticks and ran to hold the queen mother's arm and said coquettishly, "Imperial grandmother, you can't blame your granddaughter, Ning'er just went to the imperial aunt to see that the imperial aunt was stuffy in the palace all day long, and she was still coughing, and her granddaughter saw that the weather today was very good, so she begged the imperial aunt to accompany her granddaughter out for a walk, and by the way, she could breathe." ”

Qin Changning saw that the emperor's face was about to soften a little when he saw the queen, and then said, "Oh, by the way, my aunt and I also saw the Eighth Emperor Sister in the Imperial Garden, and the Eighth Emperor Sister probably also saw that the weather was very good, so she was boating in the lake, but if she fell into the water in such a cold weather, she would definitely catch the wind cold." ”

Saying that, Qin Changning hugged his arm with both hands and shuddered, "Ning'er has suffered the pain of falling into the water, so I told my aunt to let the Eighth Emperor Sister get off the boat, so my aunt let the Eighth Emperor Sister come down, Imperial Grandmother, you don't praise Ning'er for being sensible, why do you still blame Ning'er?" ”

Saying that, Qin Changning glanced at the emperor, and his bright eyes blinked, "Uncle, how biting the lake water is in winter, Ning Er knows it very well, if the Eighth Emperor Sister falls into the water and hurts the jade body, what will it be?" ”

The queen put down the jade chopsticks in her hand, stood up, knelt down, looked up at the emperor without humility or arrogance, and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, this is about to be the New Year, and the envoys of the Qin State are also going to enter Beijing, and the eight princesses are going to dance on the day of the tribute, if she has an accident and is infected with the wind cold, there is no princess of the right age in this palace, if the eighth princess falls into the water today and is infected with the wind cold, then who will dance instead of the eight princesses, if there is no suitable princess to dance, how can the face of our Dazhou royal family exist!" ”

Seeing that the emperor frowned slightly, the empress continued, "So the concubine has already greeted Concubine Xiao Shu, first put the eighth princess by her side to teach well, and after Chinese New Year's Eve, the eighth princess will return to Concubine Xiao Shu." ”

The Queen Mother looked at the big drama in front of her, her eyelids drooped, and she thought to herself that the concubines in this harem really don't have any worries!

Thinking of what Qingyun said yesterday, the Queen Mother looked at her already wrinkled hands, and said lightly, "Yesterday, the mourning family heard that Prime Minister Xiao's son is back?" ”

"Yes." The emperor nodded in response.

The Queen Mother glanced at the queen who was still kneeling on the ground, and frowned, "Didn't you say you had a little cough?" Why are you still kneeling, don't get up quickly! ”

"The concubine is sympathetic to the mother." The queen stood up.

The Queen Mother looked at the emperor's face and frowned, "The mourning family heard that this time the Qin State wants some beauties to our Great Zhou, and they also want to send a princess to join our Great Zhou prince to form an in-law?" ”

"What the queen mother said is that the sons are worried about this matter, and they plan to invite the six emperor brothers to enter the palace to discuss with the sons, but this morning I heard that the six emperor brothers set off to Qingcheng Mountain to invite Taixu Zhenren to see a doctor for King Jin."

The Queen Mother looked at Qin Changning with a faint smile in her eyes, "But is there such a thing?" ”

It seems that it is good, she is still thinking about how to make the emperor give up letting Jinchen enter the palace for a while, she doesn't want her son to sacrifice his happiness for the friendship between the two countries.

The emperor has so many sons, why do he have to use her sons?

Ahem, although the palms and backs of her hands are full of meat, and her grandson is also her grandson, but she only has two biological sons, grandchildren, ahem... The Queen Mother stopped her thoughts, how could she feel that the more she thought about it, the more she felt that she was not a good grandmother who was competent.

"Yes, after Uncle Liuwang sent his father back yesterday, he said that he would go to find a famous doctor for his father and treat his father."

The Queen Mother nodded, "Then you see if there are suitable princes, and there are eight children, you should also watch closely, this is about to end the year, how do you know that Qin Guo sent a princess over, and he didn't want to ask a princess to go?" If something goes wrong with the eighth child by then, the mourning family will see how you clean up the mess she caused. ”

"Erchen understood." How smart the emperor is, hearing what the queen mother said, he probably understood the twists and turns in the middle, thinking of this, he glanced at the queen guiltily, and coughed with a little embarrassment, "Empress, you have been wronged." ”

"For the sake of our royal family of the Great Zhou, the concubines are willing to bear the infamy."

Qin Changning picked up the chopsticks again, "The dishes are going to be cold, Ning'er is not welcome first." ”

Today is just the beginning, Sima Xuan, you see, I want to make none of your plots succeed! I want you to see the things you care about being snatched away by others little by little, and I want the people you care about to slowly accompany you into the abyss!

The emperor left Xiangning Palace after lunch, and the queen looked at Qin Changning more and more pleasing after today's short time together, especially although she had just inadvertently mentioned the matter of meeting the eighth princess, but she relieved her, before the queen got up and retired, she took off the jade bracelet on her hand and put it on Qin Changning's wrist, "Ning'er, this is the jade bracelet that the imperial aunt used to wear by her side, and I will give it to you today, and it should be a congratulatory gift for your physical recovery." ”

Qin Changning looked at the jade bracelet he was carrying on his wrist, "Ning'er, thank you for the reward from your imperial aunt." ”

After the queen left Xiangning Palace, the queen mother beckoned to Qin Changning with a smile, and Qin Changning walked to the queen mother's side, "Why is the imperial grandmother so happy?" ”

"The imperial grandmother just thinks that my Ning'er has changed, in the past, your imperial aunt didn't treat you very well, that is, she promised you to enter the palace and study in the thirteenth, but the imperial grandmother reluctantly agreed when she opened her mouth, but now she is willing to give you the bracelet she wore in the boudoir, do you want to make the imperial grandmother believe that your imperial aunt has suddenly changed her temperament?"

Qin Changning didn't hide it when he saw the Queen Mother say this, "Actually, Ning'er has also been in a coma these days and has figured out a lot of things. ”

The Queen Mother pulled Qin Changning to sit down on the soft collapse and patted her hands, "Tell the imperial grandmother, what have you figured out?" ”

"Life is short, in a short life, Ning'er doesn't want to bear a spicy notoriety, and Ning'er doesn't want to be abused after death, so Ning'er wants to be worthy of her mother's expectations of Ning'er and live up to her mother's dedication to Ning'er."

The Queen Mother patted Qin Changning's hand suddenly, she smiled, "Good idea, but Ning'er, don't restrain yourself, the imperial grandmother still wants to see the happy Ning'er, the imperial grandmother can see that your smile is not really laughing, although the grandmother doesn't know why there is something in your heart, but the grandmother hopes that you can put it down, so that you can be really happy." ”
