The Imperial Study

The emperor put down the brush in his hand and didn't continue to practice calligraphy, but just raised his head and asked, "Hurricane, can you remember to knock on the door next time you come in?" Do you want to scare me? ”

"Your Majesty, didn't you tell your subordinates to come in directly without knocking on the door and reporting?" Hurricane asked a little aggrieved.

The emperor was confused and said to himself: "En? Did I say such an idiot? ”

Tempest: "Huh...... Could it be that the subordinates have made a mistake? ”

"Okay, I'm not poor with you, let's talk about it, what's worth it for you to trespass into the imperial study in such broad daylight?" The emperor looked at the wind with a smile.

The wind had a solemn face: "The queen held a banquet in Jiuhua Palace, invited several ministers, and held a birthday banquet. ”

"Well, does this matter have anything to do with me?" The emperor tilted his head and looked at the wind.

"Of course, among the ministers...... There's King Ryan. Swift Wind said word by word.

"Oh, I see, this woman is starting to be restless again, let's go, let's go to Jiuhua Palace to join in the fun." Hearing that the queen invited King Ryan to a banquet, the emperor was not calm, not for anything else, just for fear of gossip.

Outside Jiuhua Palace

As soon as the emperor arrived, it was like thunder on the ground, and suddenly several ministers got up and knelt down, and even the queen Shen Bilan couldn't help frowning slightly, it seemed that the emperor came at an inopportune time.

"Hehe, get up, it's so lively today, so many Aiqing are here." The emperor walked in with a smile. There is no imperial majesty at all.

Queen Shen Bilan's face was a little unnatural, and she immediately replied: "Back to the emperor, it was the concubines who invited the ministers, and the emperor didn't know that these ministers didn't attend the concubines' birthday banquet before because they were busy with official affairs, but they gave generous gifts, so ...... The concubines thought that they must not neglect you. ”

The emperor quietly listened to the queen's explanation, and just smiled: "Lan'er is right, since the Aiqing are here, they will have fun, and it just so happens that I have come to join in the fun." ”

As soon as she heard that the emperor said that she wanted to stay, the queen immediately bowed and said: "The emperor can stay, the concubines are flattered, please take a seat." ”

The emperor didn't speak, just slowly walked up to the middle seat, and then sat down.

At this time, a little eunuch came over and asked tremblingly, "Queen Mother, are you still singing that play?" ”

Originally, the queen carefully prepared a play today, but in fact, it was carefully prepared, but it was true, but it was not prepared for the emperor, but for the West Palace.

But seeing that the emperor is here now, this play can't be sung no matter what, isn't this asking for trouble for yourself?

So the queen smiled awkwardly and said, "No, the emperor has never liked to listen to dramas, so let's withdraw and change to some singing and dancing." ”

"Yes." The little eunuch received the order and was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by a voice.

"Wait a minute." The emperor blurted out these three words, which really shocked Queen Shen Bilan.

"What the emperor commands, the servants listen to it." When the little eunuch saw that it was the emperor calling him, his legs immediately weakened again.

"Call those who sing operas, to be honest, although I don't like to watch plays, but my second brother likes to watch them, this time King Ryan has a meritorious role in controlling the water, so I will borrow flowers to offer Buddha to give him a play." The emperor said casually.

"No need, Your Majesty, the courtiers don't dare to take credit." Although Xigong Jue didn't know what this play was going to do, he understood that the emperor would not invite him to watch the play for no reason, and there might be some mystery in it.

"Yes, Your Majesty, since King Ruian said that he didn't dare to take credit, the emperor shouldn't embarrass him?" Queen Shen Bilan's face was not very good, and she agreed.

But the emperor seemed to have made up his mind, and insisted on saying: "Eh, the second brother is confused, why are you confused, queen?" Since ancient times, which hero should not be rewarded, and besides, I just invited my second brother to watch a play, is the queen too nervous? ”

As soon as these words came out, Shen Bilan immediately shut up and didn't dare to say more...... She knows the emperor's thoughts, and she will never guess it, but if this play is really performed, I'm afraid that the wise emperor will be able to see the mystery at a glance, and ...... then?

Thinking of this, she shouldn't continue to speculate, she can only ask for more blessings, Shen Bilan now regrets a little that she made such a decision without permission.

No one dared to disobey the emperor's orders, and as soon as he heard the emperor's orders, he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately let those actors appear.

On the high platform, the two people sang affectionately, as soon as they opened their mouths, they heard that it was a classic Liang Zhuhua butterfly, the story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai has been sung for thousands of years, but it has always endured, just because the spirit of love is eternal.

However, it seems inappropriate for the queen to let the troupe sing this play, the reason is very simple, Liang Zhu is in love with each other, but they can't be together, just because of the destruction of the third party Ma Wencai.

If the queen Shen Bilan is compared to Zhu Yingtai, then who is Liang Shanbo? Who is Ma Wencai?

The results are self-evident, but no one dares to break them, because rumors related to the royal family will be wiped out as long as they are not careful.

The queen's face became more and more ugly, and she looked at the emperor from time to time, as if she was noticing the change in his expression.

But the emperor always smiled, as if he didn't feel anything wrong, but King Ryan's expression seemed to be a little complicated.

He didn't know what Shen Bilan wanted to express when he arranged this Liang Zhuhua Butterfly on such a day? Could it be that it is still the same as the bamboo sea in Lingbo Palace last time, and he wants to rekindle his old love?

But this is impossible, she is the queen, and she is the prince, just saying that this identity is too sensitive.

The atmosphere became more and more weird, at this time, a minister got up to toast and flattered: "The emperor, the queen, the old minister is really eye-opening today, it turns out that the emperor and the queen are really as close to the folk legend as Jin Jian, and it can reach the point of turning into a butterfly. ”

The emperor only smiled slightly when he heard this, then picked up the wine glass with one hand, and replied with the other hand on the queen's fragrant shoulder: "What Lord Gao said is good, I am very happy." ”

As soon as they heard the emperor's praise, other ministers also followed suit, praising the emperor and the queen for how they were right and how deep their love was like the sea.

"Second brother, come, let's have a drink together, I am very glad that you can still come to celebrate Lan'er's birthday despite your busy schedule." The emperor stared at Xigong Jue, as if there was something in his words.

"The emperor is serious, the queen is the mother of a country, and the ministers should come to celebrate their birthday." Nishinomiya Jue said bitterly.

Then Xigong Jue stared at the emperor and tightly held Shen Bilan's hand, and something seemed to be in his heart that began to ache faintly.

The emperor is not a person who is willing to show affection, but today is different from usual, as if announcing something.

Xigong Jue's face was a little ugly, but he never said anything, just nodded and threw the wine in the wine glass up.
