221 Guarding the Mausoleum

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the sacrifice day of the former emperor. Si Yue has always been pure filial piety, so this sacrifice day is also very solemn, and even stopped for three days in the morning.

Concubine Chen has never communicated with Lin Su since she got such a solution from Lin Su that day. Lin Su was not very sure in his heart whether Concubine Chen would still leave the exquisite cage of the palace like a moth to a fire in this life. If she doesn't leave, what will happen to Feng Jing?

If he didn't do what he promised him, how would he see himself?

Lin Su only felt that her brain hurt, but all this was beyond her control. After all, Concubine Chen's mind, she can't change it. Especially after Feng Jing said that he would not leave the palace, perhaps, Concubine Chen will stay in the palace for him, just like Feng Jing at the beginning?

It's not impossible.

The emperor's sacrifice day is getting closer and closer, and Si Yue has already made a conclusion, and on the first emperor's sacrifice day, he officially canonized the imperial concubine Zhao as the Empress Dowager Zhao, and lived in the east and west palaces with the Empress Dowager Lan to manage the harem.

The Lan family and the Zhou family also seem to understand that with the death of Marquis Lan, I am afraid that their influence above the court is not as great as before. didn't dare to really stand up to Si Yue, and after persisting for a month or two, he began to slowly compromise. In the end, this result can be said to be a great joy for all.

Lin Shuyan was promoted by one level, and Li Qingsong, the father of Li Moshan of the Li family, was also transferred to a more powerful position, which seemed to be not promoted, but it was more useful than promotion. As for the others, they were all rewarded for their meritorious deeds, and the bright and the dark were all rewarded by Si Yue.

That night, Si Yue stayed in Lin Su's Fuliu Palace. The two of them tossed a little, and then called Chunyan, who was on vigil, to clean up the mess with the little maid, and after washing up, they lay down on the clean and new bed again.

Si Yue put his arm around Lin Su's smooth shoulders and said in a low voice, "I've worked hard for you these days. ”

"Why did the emperor suddenly say polite words." Lin Su smiled faintly, "As long as the emperor doesn't blame the concubines for making their own opinions, the concubines are already satisfied." ”

She had already handed over all the evidence about Empress Dowager Lan's murder of the Nine Princes to Si Yue, and Si Yue was furious after reading it, although he had guessed what Empress Dowager Lan had done early in the morning, but when he really saw such evidence, he still changed his face.

Empress Dowager Lan is really too arrogant and domineering, and there is no one in her eyes. No wonder the former emperor told him many times that he would not be soft-hearted. It's just that......

Glancing at Lin Su, who was snuggled in his arms, squinting at his eyes that were already sleepy, Si Yue's gaze slowly deepened again. It's just that why Lin Su cares so much about this matter. Or even to risk being blamed, punished, or even disgusted by him, to do such a thing?

Is it really just for a maid Qiu Yan by his side?

Or is she already smart enough to see everything and see what she thinks in her heart, so she acts like this?

If it is the latter, then her mind is too transparent. If one day, she is on the opposite side of herself...... Thinking of this, Si Yue subconsciously denied it in his heart. No, Lin Su won't be like this.

This woman is like water, gentle, indifferent, intelligent, and always transparent in front of him, so that he can see it clearly at a glance. Thinking of this, Si Yue relaxed again, hugged Lin Su's soft body and slowly fell asleep.

On the day of the first emperor's sacrifice, the entire royal family was busy for a whole day, and by the evening, the former imperial concubine, who had officially become the Empress Dowager Zhao, had already lived in the West Palace Palace, which had just been cleaned and decorated.

The women of the inner and outer palaces have already left the palace, and the only people who stay in the palace of the West Palace are the women of the harem.

Empress Dowager Lan and Empress Dowager Zhao sat side by side on the main seat, speaking politely, as if none of the dirty things between these two people had happened in the past. The Empress was at the hands of the Empress Dowager Lan, and Lin Su sat opposite her next to the Empress Dowager Zhao. followed the two people down, one time was Zhou Shuxian, Wang Liulian, Zhao Yuexin, Wei Tiantian and others.

No matter how much the power status in the harem has changed, now they are just a companion, smiling at the top two queen mothers talking, from time to time funny, saying some innocuous jokes is the limit.

Empress Dowager Lan accompanied Empress Dowager Zhao to talk, and almost had to ask about food, clothing, housing and transportation, and then got up and said, "It's not too early, the palace will go back to rest." Don't make trouble too late, tired Sister Zhao. ”

A group of women got up and saluted one after another, and sent the Empress Dowager Lan away.

Empress Dowager Lan's departure seemed to be a message, and after a while, Zhou Shuxian and Zhou Shude also left. Then there was the departure of Jiang Caier and Rong Rong, Zhao Yuexin, who had always been cautious, looked left and right, and finally got up and said that he was not in good health these days, and left with him.

Lin Su glanced at Wei Tiantian who was sitting on the side with some surprise, Wang Liulian would stay, she knew it in her heart, but this Wei Tiantian ......

Wei Tiantian noticed her gaze, smiled slightly, and said, "The concubine is still waiting for the queen mother to have dinner." ”

Everyone present laughed when he said a word, even the Empress Dowager Zhao stretched out her hand and pointed at her helplessly, shaking her head and laughing, "Am I still afraid that you won't be able to eat my table?" If you want to eat, just come by anytime. I happened to be talking to an old woman like me. ”

All the women laughed again, and the atmosphere was harmonious, when the palace maid who was guarding outside suddenly came in, and it was rumored that Concubine Chen came to greet the Queen Mother.

Lin Su felt that her heart hanging in mid-air had fallen again, and she breathed a sigh of relief slightly, hearing that Empress Dowager Zhao had announced that Concubine Chen had come in.

Because it was the emperor's sacrifice day, Concubine Chen was dressed plainly, and when she saw that there was not only Lin Su in the queen mother's palace, but also Wang Liulian and Wei Tiantian and others as companions, she couldn't help but be stunned, and then stepped forward to salute.

Empress Dowager Zhao gently asked her to get up and step forward, and sat beside her, and then said with concern: "You have always been in poor health, and today is already busy for most of the day, why did you come here again to say hello at this time?" ”

Concubine Chen raised her head when she heard this, and quietly looked at the Queen Mother, neither humble nor arrogant, and said slowly without hurrying: "The concubines have always dreamed of the emperor these days, and today is the emperor's sacrifice day, and the concubines somehow remembered those dreams. I was uneasy in my heart, and after thinking about it, I rushed over, wanting to ask the queen mother for a grace and let the concubines go to the imperial tomb to guard the tomb for the first emperor. ”

It was really a word that stirred up countless waves, and as soon as these words came out, not only the concubines present, but even the Empress Dowager Zhao, who had lived in the palace for most of her life, couldn't help but change color, staring at Concubine Chen and looking.
