The secretary of the Inner Secretary was over fifty years old, and he was born a little fat, and when he heard the Empress Dowager's questioning, he fell to his knees in fright, but for a while he couldn't think of a suitable word to defend himself for >

"The mourning family asked you, how many documents were missing from the documents you sent to the mourning family last year?" The Empress Dowager pointed at the ground with gilded armor, "The words are good, the upper is good, the lower is lucky, why don't you mention anything wrong?" ”

Her voice was not loud, but she could clearly explain which documents were delivered late, and which ones were poorly preserved and defaced, and there was no room for sophistry.

"Hong'er," the Empress Dowager suddenly turned to Tuoba Hong, who was sitting on the main seat in the center, "You should also learn and make your own decisions." What should be done with such officials? ”

Tuoba Hong knew in his heart that he had been working for six or seven years as a secretary during this term, and he had some small mistakes on weekdays, but he didn't have the courage to really make any big mistakes. The Empress Dowager has not touched him, but she saw that he was honest, and this time she suddenly became angry, and the reason was not him, but the turmoil at the beginning of last year.

On the night of Feng Qing's rash, there was a Rouran assassin in the palace, and Tuoba Hong took advantage of this to pretend to be sick and wanted to establish the Son of Heaven's personal guard, but the Empress Dowager preemptively forced him to kneel outside the Fengyi Hall to admit his mistake. Tuoba Hong was able to learn about the movements of the Rouran Assassin first, thanks to the interception of a document from the hands of this internal secretary.

Akari, the Empress Dowager asked him to take ideas and punish incompetent officials. In fact, the Empress Dowager was warning him that his every move had already been watched.

Tuoba Hong stood up with a humble expression and said to the Empress Dowager, "Returning to my grandmother, my grandson thinks that this person is derelict in his duties and negligent and slack, and he should not serve as the secretary again. I wonder what my grandmother thinks? ”

The Empress Dowager nodded slightly, "You are the emperor, you just have an idea." He might as well be removed from his post and replaced by Li Chong. ”

As soon as the words came out, the Tuoba clan relatives sitting on both sides of the main hall were in an uproar. Li Chong has always had a strange temper, he has never been tactful, and there are not many people who are really close to him. In addition, there is another reason for the crowd's reaction. It is said that Li Chong often rode into the Fengyi Hall late at night to meet the Empress Dowager alone, who had been widowed for many years. Although no one dared to say it explicitly, everyone was guessing in their hearts what the relationship between these two people was.

More than a dozen pairs of eyes looked at Tuoba Hong, waiting to see how the young emperor reacted.

Tuoba Hong didn't seem to be aware of it, and after a little thought, he said, "Li Chong is a strict person, and it is very suitable to serve as the internal secretary." He said to the scholar who was with him, "Do it today, as it is done." ”

The Empress Dowager advocated frugality, and the Inner Temple never prepared meals, so it was dispersed after the Shen time. Aunt Cui held a small bowl of golden lotus petals and asked the Queen Mother to take tonics. After all, it is an elderly person, sitting upright all day, and it takes brainpower, and the empress dowager is already a little unbearable, but because of the presence of the emperor and Tuoba clansmen, she does not dare to show fatigue.

Aunt Cui looked distressed, and said on the side, "The emperor still listens to the Queen Mother." ”

"Obedient?" The Empress Dowager raised her hand and rubbed the corners of her forehead, "Since the last time there was an assassin in the palace, he has learned to be obedient, and he doesn't dare to go against the mourning family openly, but he has learned to exchange in a roundabout way." These things, he knew that he was powerless to influence, so he simply followed the mourning family, wanting the mourning family to see it in his eyes, and did what he wanted after the wedding. ”

The Empress Dowager had half-closed eyes, and her voice was full of tiredness, "The crown ceremony can't be dragged on forever, he is better than young, and he has time to spend with the mourning family." But the mourning family wants him to understand a truth, if he doesn't give others benefits, others will definitely be willing to repay him in the same way. ”

Outside the Fengyi Palace, the clan relatives who participated in the deliberations have all dispersed, and only Tuoba Hong, the king of Shiping, followed Tuoba Hong's side, "After changing the internal secretary order close to the Empress Dowager, it is even more difficult for the imperial brother to participate in political affairs." ”

Tuoba Hong pressed his hand on Tuoba Xian's shoulder, "The Empress Dowager has always been clear about the importance of state affairs, Li Chong, I happened to meet once in private, and he is upright. It's not a bad thing for such a person to be the secretary of the house, so why bother to disobey the Empress Dowager in such a trivial matter? ”

In the Fengyi Palace, the Empress Dowager drank the medicinal juice in small sips, and Aunt Cui immediately sent a rock candy. The taste of the tonic is extremely bitter, and it has to be strong and sweet to suppress it, and when she was young, the Empress Dowager never liked sweets like other young ladies. However, the older you get, the more bitter the taste in your mouth becomes, and you have to pass sweet soup to eat every day.

Aunt Cui bowed down and said to the Queen Mother, "Our prince has been waiting in the apse for a long time, do you want to pass the meal and keep the prince to use it together?" ”

The prince in Aunt Cui's mouth is naturally Feng Xi, the head of the Feng family with a different surname. The Empress Dowager waved her hand and "called him in, and said a few words and told him to go back." ”

The bead curtain was raised, and Feng Xi walked quickly to the Empress Dowager and bowed respectfully. Because he entered the palace in the name of visiting relatives, he only wore ordinary civilian clothes, and after kowtowing, he didn't get up, so he knelt in place and said, "The moonlight incense in the house has been used up, and the minister ......"

The Empress Dowager retreated from others, leaving only Aunt Cui to serve on the side, "It doesn't matter, the mourning family has used other methods to confirm the speculation of the mourning family." Qing'er and Ying'er, even if they enter the palace smoothly and are lucky enough to be favored by the emperor, they will never give birth to a prince. Fortunately, there is another wonder. ”

Feng Xi kowtowed and pleaded, "Miao'er has never been taught in this area since she was a child, if she is not willing to enter the palace as a concubine, the minister implores the empress dowager not to persecute her." ”

The gold face of the armor was lightly buttoned on the table, and the voice of the Empress Dowager was cold without a trace of emotion, "The mourning family never persecutes people, willing or unwilling, the mourning family only asks her to decide for herself." ”

In the Gan Weaving Palace, there is also a curling fragrance of medicine at this time. That night, as soon as Feng Miao entered the door, she saw Aunt Wenlan standing in the snow, with a layer of white frost on her eyebrows. From that day on, Aunt Wenlan became ill, and she was so sick that she couldn't wake up almost all day.

In the first month, it is taboo to see a doctor and decoction medicine, and there is no one in the Imperial Doctor's Office, let alone to treat a person in the Ganzhi Palace. Feng Miao had no choice but to find some herbs by herself and fry them with water for Aunt Wenlan to take. Aunt Wenlan almost never gets sick on weekdays, but this time, I don't know if she is seriously ill and difficult to treat, or if these medicines are not right, the medicine juice is poured bowl by bowl, but there is no improvement at all.

Feng Miao was worried, but she didn't dare to show it in front of Aunt Wen Lan, so she only comforted her and said that she used gentle medicines, and it was inevitable that the effect would be slower. She walked out of the house with an empty bowl, and as soon as she closed the door, she saw Yu Xing waving to her sneakily.

She reached out and poked Yu Xing's forehead, jokingly saying, "No one is urging you to do things, so you're getting naughty and naughty." ”

"No, no," Yu Xing spread out her palm, a grasshopper made of straw, lying in the palm of her hand, "The one found under the palace wall in the south has been the third one in the past few days." ”

The grasshoppers made of the stems of the withered yellow grass look a little strange, one big and one small. Feng Miao knew at a glance that someone had asked her to meet her. She sent a total of two straw puppies out, and she didn't have to think about it to know that this grasshopper was sent by that person.

The current Feng Miao is no longer a little girl who was ignorant of the world when she first entered the palace, she has also heard that for a long time in the palace, there are eunuchs and palace maids who can't bear loneliness, and they will make friends in private. In fact, she didn't quite understand what it was to make friends in private, she just vaguely felt that girls from good families shouldn't do this.

"Why are you so red?" Yuxing reached out and touched her cheek.

"I'm hot!" Feng Miao pushed her in shame and put the porcelain bowl in her hand into her hand, "You are so idle, go and help me wash the bowl, go quickly." ”

As soon as Yu Xing left, Feng Miao heard someone coming behind her, turned around to look, and saw Su Yun walking straight towards her, "Fengyi Hall sent someone to announce you, and you are already waiting outside the door." ”

Feng Miao was slightly surprised, she thought that the Empress Dowager had forgotten about herself, but she didn't expect that she would suddenly come to announce her audience at this time. Feng Miao nodded in response, "Please sister, tell the visitor, let me tidy up my clothes, and then go to see the Empress Dowager." ”

A year later, when I re-entered the Fengyi Hall, every grass, tree, brick and tile, still vaguely the same as before, but it was unfamiliar. Feng Miao didn't have anything in the Gan Weaving Palace, just changed into clean clothes and tied her hair in a bun again.

She still remembered the rules she had learned when she first entered the temple, and walked quickly to the fifth green brick after entering the door, knelt down, folded her hands in front of her, and bowed down with her forehead against her back.

Just about to open her mouth to address the Empress Dowager, Feng Miao suddenly paused, the Empress Dowager's grace was unpredictable, and she opened her mouth rashly, I am afraid that it will make her old man unhappy. In the past, when she served in the Fengyi Palace, she always called herself a slave and maid, and she did not dare to call the Empress Dowager an aunt. At this time, it was the festive season, and she had just been brought out of the Weaving Palace, and if she was still called like this, I am afraid that those who heard it would think that she resented the Empress Dowager in her heart and did not want to be close to her old man.

Thinking of this, Feng Miao cleared her throat and spoke again, "Aunt is above, Miao'er kowtows to you, I wish my aunt is in good health." She didn't say much other greetings, and the simplest words were said by her in a voice as mellow as spring water, but with a piece of innocence and pity.

"Good boy, get up, I've lost a lot of weight this year." The Empress Dowager beckoned her to her and touched her smooth bun lovingly, "How are you there?" ”

Feng Miao's eyes were sour, and she was about to shed tears, but she couldn't help herself, it was not appropriate to say good or bad at this time, "Back to my aunt, the Empress Dowager, I felt hard at first, but after a long time, I got used to it, but it was much more interesting than when I was at home." She never mentioned the matter in the Fengyi Palace, only said that it was better than being abused by her mother at home, which was originally the truth, and no one could find fault with it.

The Empress Dowager nodded slightly, these words were indeed appropriate, and she straightened the corner of her clothes and said, "Good boy, your grievances are well known to the mourning family." In the first month, I was busy with family affairs, and as soon as I came out of the first month, I remembered to call your mother and brother into the palace so that you could see each other. ”

The calm and calm that he barely maintained when he entered the door was suddenly shocked at this time. In Gan Weaving Palace, Feng Miao thought about what she thought about the most, whether A-Niang and her younger brother were doing well. Now that she can meet her, no matter what it is, she is grateful to the Queen Mother.

Behind the small gauze curtain, two figures sat in the shadows. Feng Miao's eyes were filled with tears, and the figure became more and more blurred. She glanced at the Empress Dowager, and hurriedly reached out to close the curtain.

As soon as she was about to call out, she swallowed it back. The people behind the small curtain are not A-Niang and her younger brother.
