In two days, the Four Emperors and Four Queens will officially leave the Shendu and set off to return home.

For more than a month, they have indeed been impressed by the charm of the eldest brother and sister-in-law, and they have a sense of intimacy from the inside out. Especially the sister-in-law, receiving people and treating things like a spring breeze, the four harvests are full, and the concubines who "return with a full load" are reluctant from the bottom of their hearts.

Therefore, this vigil gathering has lost those polite intimate greetings, and it is really the family members who are about to say goodbye to take advantage of the last reunion to communicate with each other.

The five concubines, as well as the other three women of the eldest brother's family, as well as Xue Guifei who was pulled by Zhao Ying, and Xiao Mi who was pulled by Xiao Miaoqiang, and now they have to add the little cousin Youruo who they just met, everyone spoke freely, and exchanged some views and opinions on the women's academy of the school palace in a low voice.

The little cousin sat next to her cousin Empress Xuanyuan, and she had been silent since she entered the hall, her hands twisted together, her head down, and her toes staring.

After such a long time, Queen Xuanyuan finally couldn't see it anymore, reached out and pulled her closer to her, let her lean lightly on her side, pressed her hands on the corners of her eyes, and said, "You girl, why do you have a sad face all night, is there anything unhappy?"

The little cousin shook her head.

"Is that your opinion about your cousin?"

The little cousin shook her head vigorously.

Empress Xuanyuan frowned and said, "Speak!"

took out the momentum of subduing those little girls in the women's hospital, and immediately calmed Xiao Youruo, and said in a voice like a gnat: "My cousin-in-law is very good, Youruo has no opinion!"

Empress Xuanyuan was about to continue teasing her, when a little palace maid ran into the hall and said, "Niangniang, Manager Wei asks to see her." ”

"Isn't he waiting by His Majesty's side now?" she thought to herself, but nodded, "Just let him in." ”

After Lao Wei entered the palace, he didn't sell Guan Zi, and said straight to the point: "The old slave sees Niangniang, Your Majesty encountered a thorny problem at this time, and he couldn't make up his mind and didn't know how to deal with it, so let the old slave come to ask Niangniang's opinion." ”

Empress Xuanyuan smiled and said, "He still has problems that he can't solve?" ”

Lao Wei looked around, hesitating and seemed to be unable to speak.

Empress Xuanyuan smiled: "It's okay to say it directly, it's all family, what else are you shying away from!"

But because of Lao Wei's actions, the other women had secretly pricked up their ears.

Lao Wei's old face couldn't see anything abnormal, and he narrated in a calm tone:

"Just now, Xu Guogong told His Majesty that when the Empress Dowager was still alive, she had made a marriage contract for His Majesty and Xu Guogong's unborn daughter, which is now a quiet girl.

His Majesty said that since he and Niangniang have a destined marriage, he naturally cannot fulfill the contract. But after all, this is related to the last wish of the Queen Mother, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while, so he came to ask for the opinion of the mother and let you give you an idea. ”

Empress Xuanyuan, who looked expectant, suddenly froze there—it felt like she had been fed a full mouthful......

The other women secretly exchanged glances, their eyes full of weird excitement, the eldest brother is really full of wisdom as always/This bastard is really a bastard as always!

Empress Xuanyuan also kept holding the hand of her little cousin, and let her lean against her side affectionately and strongly.

And at this moment, she clearly felt that this girl was trembling all over, although the climate is cold now, but this hall is as warm as spring!

And this little girl's little head is almost hidden in her neck.

"Heads up!" she said.

Xiao Youruo shuddered, but he still slowly raised his head in front of a powerful deterrent.

Hey, I was scared of the little girl, her originally pink and shiny cheeks were blue, her lips were pale, and there was deep fear hidden in her eyes.

Empress Xuanyuan couldn't bear it, and asked in a friendly voice: "Is your cousin-in-law so terrible that she scares you like this?"

Table ...... Cousin-in-law doesn't ...... It's not scary......" Xiao Youruo stammered and said honestly.

"Flutter-" Empress Xuanyuan laughed, her hands stretched out to hold her pink cheeks, as if to warm them up from fright, and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of, your cousin-in-law will eat people and won't eat you little cutie." ”

Then, she stared deeply at Xiao Youruo's panicked and evasive eyes, and said, "Tell my cousin-in-law, did your father tell you something before coming to the state banquet? Did he force you?"

At that moment, countless images flashed back in Xiao Youruo's mind.

She remembered the difficult but warm and happy childhood that her father worked hard to create;

She remembered that she was a child sitting on the high arrow tower by the edge of the forest farm, looking into the distance under the sunset, imagining the world outside the mountain, and imagining what the gods of the prosperous world in her father's mouth would look like;

She remembered that a few months ago, a cavalry team suddenly broke the peace of her family for more than ten years, and the whole family went to Shendu, and she felt curious, apprehensive, and hopeful along the way;

She remembered that the whole family was brought into a room, and her father knelt silently and slowly in front of a bed, and the old man on the bed greeted them with a smile, that was the grandfather in the mouth of her father, but he was not the strong and stern person in their mouth, he was just a haggard and weak old man, and he told her many interesting things like the grandfather in the story, but the time was too short, and he left peacefully—she used to think so;

After she remembered Shendu, her father and mother no longer cared about her, and let her play as much as she liked like a kite off the string;

She remembered that one night before attending the state banquet, her father and mother had a vague quarrel, and her father came out silently and had a deep conversation with her, and she knew a lot of things;

She thought of her younger brother, who was not very smart, but hardworking and kind, a little man who had been forged by a difficult childhood and had the quality of a mountain, but who had always obeyed her words, like a big mastiff who silently and loyally guarded herself;

She remembered...... Many, many ......

For a moment, she felt like she understood a lot, and suddenly, she had grown up.

Under the gaze of those eyes that made her heart tremble, she no longer dodged her eyes, looked back firmly, and shook her head firmly.

With the steadfastness and unyielding of righteousness!

She didn't know that looking at her expression, the "vicious and terrifying" cousin's heart in her heart was broken.

Holding her tightly in his arms, caressing her back, he said gently, "Okay, okay, I won't ask." ”

She felt that Xiao Youruo's right shoulder was suddenly wet, she was more like comforting her beloved kitten, and said: "Okay, don't be afraid, you can rest easy, I will support you in everything in the future." ”

As he spoke, he said to Lao Wei, who was waiting there: "You go and tell Uncle Xu that Your Majesty and I have been married, and there is still a Holy Ancestor in the world to witness it, so you can't change it." However, the last wish of the imperial mother cannot be ignored, so she will be wronged and become an imperial concubine. ”

Waiting for Lao Wei to go away, she teased Youruo, who was still buried in her arms: "Do you feel wronged, my imperial concubine?"

Xiao Youruo couldn't afford to bury her head, and said coquettishly: "Cousin-in-law......"

"What cousin-in-law, you have to call me sister in the future!"

In this situation, if Emperor Xuanyuan saw it, he would definitely be "heartbroken".

The bamboo basket is empty, and the wedding clothes are made for others!

What the hell is this—whose imperial concubine is here?
