The queen appeared like a bodhisattva, relieved everyone's suffering, they helped each other to get up, shivering from the cold, just at this moment, Lingzhao came out of Ningshou Palace and saw the queen here.

"Let's go back, if there is anything to talk about in a few days, I will drink two bowls of ginger soup, and if you feel unwell, you must call the imperial doctor in time." Shu Shu said good-naturedly, "In the New Year, it's time to play, but you also have to be measured." ”

"Yes......" everyone agreed tremblingly.

"Pomegranate, you send them back." Shu Shu ordered this, so he went to Ningshou Palace to sit down, and turned around to see Ling Zhao walking this way.

Shu Shu motioned for the people behind him to go first, and when Lingzhao arrived, he said: "I came to sit with Huang Eniang, and when I met them kneeling here, even if they kneel outside the gate of Qianqing Palace, they shouldn't kneel here, how can they scare Huang Eniang." ”

Ling Zhao said: "The concubines are also on the orders of the Queen Mother, and they want to persuade them to leave. The concubines passed by here, but the concubines were so aggressive that not punishing them was not enough to vent their hatred, so they refused to forgive them. The concubine didn't want to quarrel with someone in the first month and blushed, so she left first, but it was so embarrassing, it was the concubine's incompetence, and she asked the mother to forgive her sins. ”

"Concubine Hui is young and has a bad temper, you humble her, it is your generosity." Shu Shu said, "Let's go, in the first month, we should coax the emperor to be happy." ”

"Yes." Ling Zhao responded, got out of the way, and asked the queen to go first.

In this room, the Li family and the Nalan family limped back to their residence, Rong Chang had been waiting for them for a long time, but they were looking forward to coming back, and they didn't understand how to go to Ningshou Palace to ask for peace, how could they be punished for kneeling in the snow.

As soon as the Li family entered the door, Chong Rong often shouted: "That Hui concubine also takes herself too seriously, just a concubine, what kind of prestige." and Concubine Zhao, who pretended to be a good peacemaker later, why didn't she be tougher before, she just didn't want to save us. ”

When Pomegranate left, he listened to a few words, shook his head helplessly, and silently remembered them in his heart.

At night, when Shu Shu was bathing, he listened to Pomegranate tell these words: "I have always heard that Li Chang is talking freely, but now the slave and maid are taught, and there are really no rules." ”

Shu Shu closed his eyes, soaked comfortably in the hot water, and said slowly: "In the palace, there must be all kinds of people to be interesting." For the emperor, different palace concubines have different personalities, so he will feel fresh, otherwise he will have a body and a skin, and he will not be interested sooner or later. ”

Pomegranate didn't respond, Shu Shu opened his eyes: "Nalan is gentle and well-behaved, and he looks like an extremely honest person." ”

"Yes, I don't blame the emperor for liking it like that." Pomegranate coughed dryly and said, "The slave maid listened to Da Lizi, and the emperor seemed to think that the Nalan clan was in line with the appearance of a lady." ”

Shu Shu said: "But a person with such a temperament as her should disdain to be with the Li family, so I should be careful." ”

Pomegranate asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Shu Shu coldly: "She is not honest, you and I have to pay more attention in the future, being smart is not a bad thing, but I don't want her to use her smart in the wrong way." It's not that she's favored, I have the heart to exclude her, aunt, the days are long, you can see it when you look at it. ”

Pomegranate thought for a while and said, "Yes, around someone like Li Changzai, once compared, everyone will think that she is gentle and honest." ”

Shu Shu stopped talking, closed his eyes again, and Pomegranate knew that the queen wanted to be quiet, so he said: "Slave maid go and get the balm to wipe your body, Niangniang, wait a minute." ”

The room was quiet, Shu Shu opened his eyes again, held a handful of petals floating on the water, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it, the fragrance of the flowers was pleasant, but the impetuous heart still could not be calm.

However, she has no regrets.

Shu Shu does not regret indulging Hui Gege to become like this, it is obvious that the Empress Dowager must have noticed that if the Empress Dowager had the intention to cultivate her mother's child, she would never let such a upside-down grandmother by her side.

This matter, Shu Shu's selfishness, was only realized under the Empress Dowager.

But what she was worried about was that the Empress Dowager knew if she had started calculating for the future so early, whether she would lose the trust of her old man, whether she would lose the favor of her grandmother, and all this was her biggest capital in the harem.

Niu Hulu Lingzhao worked hard in Ningshou Palace to get the favor of the Queen Mother, but Shushu had favor and trust from the moment he entered the door, which was from scratch, and from there to nothing, there was a world of difference.

All day long, Shu Shu was conflicted, whether he should confess to the Empress Dowager, or even, whether he should ask for forgiveness. I am afraid that my sincere confession will become a scheming in the eyes of the Queen Mother, and trust is a mutual matter.

The intrusion of the pomegranate interrupted Shu Shu's thoughts, and she came with the balm to wipe her body and said, "Niangniang, the emperor has arrived." ”

"Why did you come here all of a sudden?" Shu Shu asked uneasily, "There was no decree tonight." ”

Pomegranate smiled: "When did the emperor come to Kunning Palace?" ”

Shu Shu knew that Pomegranate didn't notice her thoughts, and she might have forgotten that time she passed by Zhongcui Palace, and she could hear what Mama Wang said to each other when she was fiddling with feng shui.

On the warm kang in the dormitory, Xuan Ye was leisurely fiddling with a half-played game of Go, Shu Shu entered the door with the fragrance of flowers, and said, "Your Majesty, don't mess up my chess game." ”

Xuan Ye said: "If you really remember, you can't see where I moved. ”

Shu Shu sat aside and muttered while watching: "The imperial grandmother said that the emperor is not allowed to bully me again." ”

Xuan Ye said angrily: "What are you suing again?" ”

Shu Shu said aggrievedly: "Who calls some people laugh at my bad name every day." ”

Xuan Ye smiled, opened his arms to ask Shu Shu to come over, and the fragrant person was in his arms, and he couldn't help but kiss it.

"The emperor should also go and wash." Shu Shu said, "Even if you play late for a while, you can sleep no matter how you want." ”

Xuan Ye was lazy: "It's a cold day, and I don't sweat......"

Shu Shu was disgusted, pulled Xuan Ye up, and pushed him to wash: "The king of a country, be neat and tidy." ”

Handed over the emperor to a group of palace people to serve, Shu Shu retreated, and recovered the chess game on the chessboard with his memory, which is not a difficult task, even if he can't remember it, he can follow the chess score.

But how can she restore her trust in the heart of the Empress Dowager, or do she think casually, even self-righteously, that her old man will still trust her and will acquiesce to all this.

The repeated contradictions made Shu Shu unconsciously in a daze, Xuan Ye rushed back after washing, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw the queen holding a chess piece in her hand and half-hanging on the chessboard, but her focused expression must not be recalling the chess game.

"Something?" Xuan Ye didn't go around the corner, "What do you think?" ”

Shu Shu came back to his senses, and watched Xuan Ye sit opposite in a daze, he took the chess pieces between his fingers, placed them neatly and simply on the chessboard, and then raised his eyes to look at himself: "What's wrong?" ”

"I didn't ...... What ......" Shu Shu lowered his eyes, although he denied it, he had unconsciously revealed his uneasiness.

"If you don't want to say it, I won't force you." Xuan Ye was very gentle, "Even if we have nothing to say, we should have some little secrets hidden in each other's hearts, right?" ”

Shu Shu didn't understand what he was wronging, and when he heard Xuan Ye's words, he burst into tears.

As soon as her tears came out, she frightened Xuan Ye, pushed away the kang table, hugged Shu Shu into her arms, and said, "What's wrong?" Is there something wrong at home? ”

"No ......" Shu Shu nestled in Xuan Ye's arms, and finally said, "I'm afraid of the imperial grandmother, and I don't like me anymore, it's because I did something wrong." ”

Outside the door, the little palace maid timidly withdrew with hot tea, and the big Li Zi asked why she didn't send it in, she said tremblingly: "Manager Li, the slave and maid seem to be crying, and I don't know why, the slave and maid dare not go in." ”

"Mother? Crying? Da Li Zi was stunned, his brain was spinning, thinking about what had happened today, and suddenly remembered the entanglement between Hui Concubine and a few people who were always there, he patted his head and blamed himself, "How did I forget." ”

But in fact, how many pairs of eyes Xuan Ye has in the palace, even Da Li Zi is not clear, the emperor trusts Da Lizi, but he trusts himself even more.

Xuan Ye already knew about this matter, but he didn't think about any deep truth, and even Da Li Zi didn't understand at the moment, if it was for the sake of Hui Concubine to practice Rong was always with them, the queen had nothing to cry about, she could only comfort herself silently, there must be something else important.

However, Shu Shu just couldn't think about it, at this moment she knelt in front of Xuan Ye, and took out all the words in her heart, no matter how the emperor would react, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Xuan Ye pinched Shu Shu's cheek: "Useless thing." ”

Shu Shu curled up in a ball and leaned into Xuan Ye's arms, his back and arms were gently caressed, and his heart gradually became stable.

Xuan Ye said: "If you are wrong, it means that the imperial grandmother is also wrong, how can you open your mouth to admit your mistake to the imperial grandmother?" You are not ruthless enough, nor confident enough, you still feel in your heart that everything you have today depends on the imperial grandmother or me, not yourself. ”

"Yes......"

"But in my eyes, that's not the case." Xuan Ye said, "The imperial grandmother has read countless people, she has experienced ups and downs, she has been betrayed by others, and she has betrayed others, you are careful, from the first time you shouted the imperial grandmother, she saw through it." ”

Shu Shu sat up and looked at the emperor seriously, his eyes gradually cleared, and his heart was also clear.

Xuan Ye sneered: "If the imperial grandmother didn't like you and didn't trust you, she would have disliked you eight hundred years earlier." He tapped his nose lightly, "I don't want a fool to be the queen, and you also said that you don't want to be just a woman who serves tea and water." ”

Shu Shu's impetuous heart for a whole day is finally steady.

Xuan Ye's eyes were full of love, as if Shu Shu was poking a hole in the sky, and he could also tolerate and silently fill it, he said: "Don't think nonsense, you are doing well, I and you will get better and better." ”

Shu Shu threw himself into Xuan Ye's arms, and his body and mind were able to rely on, and Xuan Ye said in his ear: "Shu Shu, after entering spring, I decided to do it." ”

The person in his arms calmly replied: "The concubine will fully cooperate with the emperor." ”

She didn't tremble, she wasn't surprised, as if she was about to experience something very ordinary.

This makes Xuan Ye feel at ease and down-to-earth, knowing that Shu Shu is on the big right and wrong, and being able to stand firmly behind him is the support of his spirit. And these little things are just coquettishness, but sweetness between husband and wife.
