Mo Guhan was about to explain to Yuehua that the sedan chair had already entered the Qianqing Gate, the lights in front of him were flickering, and the shadows were heavy, it was the Empress Dowager and others who received the news of his assassination, greeted him, and waited at the palace gate.

Concubine Ling and the others had already rushed over, surrounding Mo Guhan and asking for warmth, their faces full of anxiety.

Mo Guhan had to put the matter aside for the time being, and stepped forward to salute the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager to report safety. The Queen Mother grabbed him, looked up and down, and saw that there was really no danger, so she put her mind at ease. A stack of questions asked what had passed, leaving Yuehua aside.

Yuehua's wound on his arm was burning at this time, and he was worried about running around in the middle of the night, he was already exhausted, and when he saw that he had nothing to do, he returned to Qingqiu Palace gloomily.

In the Qingqiu Palace, Xiangshen and several people also got the news of Yuehua's assassination, and they were as anxious as ants in a hot pot, and when they saw her come back safe and sound, they breathed a sigh of relief and looked up and down.

Yuehua was unhappy, and her face was full of sorrow. Xiangshen and Mama Wei only thought that she was frightened, and hurriedly pressed the tea on the ground, and then spread out the futon and waited for her to wash and rest earlier.

Before he could go to bed, the palace gate was banged from outside.

The palace people came in to report, followed by Rong Xiang: "Queen Mother, Rong Xiang's father-in-law is here." ”

Yuehua nodded, Rong Xiang lowered his head and came in to ask for an ceremony, and presented a palm-sized jasper box in his hand: "Qi Yu Niangniang, the emperor has important business to do, and he can't come over in person, so he ordered the slave to send this box of ice jade paste to Niangniang, and specially told Niangniang to wipe it, the most important thing is to reduce swelling and eliminate stasis." ”

Xiangshen on the side was shocked: "Niangniang, are you injured?" ”

Yuehua raised her hand coyly: "It's just a little bump, don't make a fuss." ”

Mingxiang took it and said indifferently: "Thank you for the emperor's thoughts." ”

Rong Xiang refused to leave. Yuehua raised her eyebrows slightly: "What else is going on?" ”

"The emperor said that as soon as he was free tomorrow, he would immediately come to see Niangniang, and Niangniang would be able to recuperate from her injuries."

Yuehua was still annoyed in her heart, and said coldly to Rong Xiang: "No need. The emperor has all the opportunities, so hard, don't worry about my Qingqiu Palace! ”

The words were tactful, but that tone, whoever heard it, was also angry.

When Mama Qin heard this, Yuehua didn't save any face for Rong Xiang, and she was a little anxious. This Rongxiang is a big celebrity in front of the emperor, which master in the palace is not allowed to be flattered, how can the queen be so bold today?

She smiled wryly and stepped forward to play a round: "Father-in-law Xiang made a special trip to run this trip, Niangniang was frightened, this emotional instability, we didn't even know that she was injured." ”

Rong Xiang saw Yuehua's temperament for the first time, and secretly wiped his sweat, and finally understood why the emperor handed over this errand to himself.

He took two steps back: "The emperor's mind is brought, and the slave will go back to his life, or the emperor will worry about his mother, and he will definitely have trouble sleeping and sleeping." ”

Yuehua snorted coldly from the end of her nose, this time she gave Rong Xiang two points of face, and ordered Mama Qin: "Send Rong Xiang's father-in-law." ”

Rong Xiang nodded and went out, Mama Qin personally sent him off, and said a basket of good things before sending Rong Xiang away. When she came back, Yuehua had already rested, where did she dare to point fingers?

Before the first month, Mo Guhan began to get busy, and often summoned the ministers of the court and the central government to the Qianqing Palace to discuss matters, and forgot to sleep and eat.

Especially after the beginning of spring, all things recover, the cuckoo will be spring ploughing as soon as it calls, and the plan of the year lies in the spring, and many major events related to the national economy and people's livelihood must be decided at this time.

After holding the lamp, the deliberations were dispersed, and Mo Guhan was much more leisurely than before, and he didn't have to review the chapters all night.

Occasionally, he would go to the Empress Dowager or the Empress Dowager's palace to have dinner with them. After removing the plates, the eunuchs in the room will serve silver plates, and place the green cards of several concubines in a row, and ask him to turn over the cards.

Mo Guhan was a little interested, and always frowned and sent it away. The Empress Dowager smiled silently, and the Empress Dowager's face was a little unhappy.

"It seems that the emperor hasn't turned over the concubines' signs since the New Year, but the dragon body is not safe?"

Mo Guhan shook his head: "The queen mother is bothered, the child is fine." ”

The Queen Mother glanced at the few green-headed cards on the silver plate, and frowned slightly: "It's time for the emperor to add a new person." Now there are only three or four people in the palace, where can they serve the emperor well. They are all old people, and after a long time, they are tired of seeing each other, so they naturally have no interest.

Something like this, the queen should worry about it, where is the need to mourn the family's mother's mouth? Last time she had such a good opportunity, she was jealous, and she made a mess, and the emperor still spoiled her and didn't control her, where is this what a virtuous queen should do?

It happened to be spring, and it was better to have a general election, so as to enrich the harem for the emperor and extend the royal heirs. ”

Mo Guhan knew that the Queen Mother had a prejudice against Yuehua, and he didn't argue: "The Queen Mother misunderstood, it's just that the child has too many trivial things these days and is not in the mood." The beginning of spring this year is the year of the big exam, and I want to select the talents of the pillars of Chang'an for me, so I don't want to be distracted, and I will discuss it next year. ”

The Queen Mother quietly glanced at him with the tail of her eyes, and said tentatively: "What has the emperor been busy with lately?" How did the mourning family hear that the emperor had summoned several famous jade craftsmen to the imperial study? ”

Mo Guhan was a little displeased when he heard this, and stood up: "Which slave is this who is talking a lot in front of you?" Do I have to report everything I say and do to my mother? ”

The Queen Mother understood her son's temperament, and hurriedly explained: "The mourning family wanted the servants to invite you over for dinner two days ago, but it happened that you were summoning a few craftsmen, so I asked casually today, where is the trivial matter to inquire about you?" ”

Mo Guhan gradually eased his face at this time: "The queen mother mentioned it, and only then did she remember that there was something important to deal with, so she didn't bother anymore, and the queen mother rested earlier." ”

The Queen Mother smiled a little reluctantly: "It's okay, you can rest after you are busy earlier, Ling'er has been looking forward to you for a few days, if you have time, you will go to see her." ”

Mo Guhan didn't want to go down or refuse, so he saluted himself and quit the Ruian Palace.

Rong Xiang hurriedly carried the lantern and looked in front of his head. Mo Guhan took two quick steps, paused his figure, and took out a purple hosta from his arms, a little hesitant.

"Rongxiang, you go to Qingqiu Palace and reward this hairpin to the queen."

Rong Xiang didn't dare to disobey, took the hairpin, and hesitated: "Why didn't the emperor send it over in person?" ”

Mo Guhan coughed lightly and said uncomfortably: "Mouthy." ”

Rong Xiang looked at his words, and he was a little funny in his heart, the emperor was obviously cowardly.

Last time, I didn't know if the emperor annoyed the queen mother, and I didn't dare to set foot in Qingqiu Palace for many days, and I tried my best to ask for a pair of jade rabbits, sent myself over, and repeatedly told him.

When he came back to make a business, he almost broke the casserole and asked the end, asking over and over again how the queen mother reacted when she saw the rabbit? When he heard him describe Yuehua's joy after seeing the Jade Rabbit, his lips couldn't hide the joy.

This time, I'm afraid that he provoked the queen again, and he knows that he is at a loss, so he bothered to please him like this, right?

A few days ago, I sent Noldo's gold and silver jewelry, and I heard that the queen didn't look at it, so she filled the treasury.

When the emperor heard the eunuch reply, his face was pulled down with a "whoosh", and he paced back and forth angrily in the imperial study, and then he tried his best to find such a piece of purple jade.

In the end, no one needed it, so he clumsily put on the battle, and bothered to carve it day and night, before he carved such a hosta.

The hosta is designed according to the flower shape of the purple dragon lying snow, and the best purple jade on one side is warm and moist in white, just like the snow, covered with a purple blooming autumn chrysanthemum.

To tell the truth, the emperor's craftsmanship is not very skilled, and the charm of the hosta design style has not yet been seven or eight out of ten, but it is quite fine, and each petal or volume or Shu is delicate. The overall style is like a dancing girl, with light cloud sleeves or half-covering delicate faces.

Mo Guhan put ten percent of his mind into this hairpin, the kind of meticulous craftsmanship is more than the embroidered grandmother in the needlework bureau, and there is always a slight smile on his lips, which is peaceful and peaceful, which makes Rong Xiang feel speechless.

Rong Xiang didn't know Mo Guhan's intentions at first, but when he saw that the hairpin in his hand gradually took shape, he suddenly realized.

At the birthday banquet of the Empress Dowager, the queen mother wore a thin dress, a cloud-like bun, a hairpin with a purple dragon lying in the snow, and such an otherworldly appearance is still fresh in my memory.

Later, she became the queen, and whenever she went to greet the queen mother, or when she feasted, her head would be piled up with golden hairpins.

The gorse hairpin certainly made her look graceful and luxurious, like a blooming peony. However, it is still a simple and light dress that is even more refreshing, and I feel sorry for it.

This hairpin must be very suitable for the queen's bearing, she was originally like a piece of ancient jade, warm and quiet, exuding an affinity from the inside out, without too much carving, on the loose pull up a long black hair, the oblique hairpin this smooth and transparent hosta, you can instantly shine, people can't take their eyes off.

Rong Xiang has a lot of eyes and ears in the palace, and I am afraid that there is no second person in the entire Forbidden City who knows the masters of each hall like him.

He heard from the palace people that the queen mother was extremely peaceful, and she would never reprimand or punish people with such a domineering attitude as Concubine Ling. She speaks plainly and softly, and she is also very respectful in front of the emperor, what is terrible? Why is the emperor still timid, as if he is looking at her face everywhere?

He was stunned, and Mo Guhan made a cold face: "What?" You don't seem to want to? ”

Give him 110,000 guts, and he won't dare!

"The slave doesn't dare, the slave is just hesitating, if the queen asks, how will she answer?"

Mo Guhan's face was a little unnatural: "Naturally, I answered truthfully." ”

Rong Xiang smiled "hehe": "Don't you need to add oil and vinegar?" ”

Mo Guhan felt as if Rong Xiang had been debunked by his careful thoughts, his face tightened, and he pretended to be angry: "Do you want me to teach you one sentence at a time?" ”

Rong Xiang threw the lantern in his hand to the eunuch behind him, smeared oil on the soles of his feet, ran away like flying, turned his head and waved his hand: "No, no." ”

One stumbled under his feet, as if he had tripped over a stone.

Mo Guhan was a little worried, what if this reckless guy fell and broke the hairpin?

Rong Xiang was windy under his feet, running fast, and when he was about to reach the Qingqiu Palace, he paused and slowly thought about how to talk to the queen for a while, so that he was more touching, the emperor put such a heavy responsibility in his hands, and he needed to think about it.
