Chapter 181: Request to leave the palace

"The queen is here, why is no one going to be polite?!" Ling Li's face turned cold.

The two guards outside the hall looked at each other, both with panicked expressions.

"I haven't figured out whether to get in or not, so I won't let them go." Shu Mei turned around when he heard the sound.

Ling Li immediately stepped forward, "Ah Mei, it's so cold outside, why don't you come in?" ”

"It's not cold." She shook her head, an embarrassed smile on her face.

He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had seen her smile, and it was such a light smile that made him happy. He reached out and straightened the cloak, which had been blown away by the wind, "Go inside and talk." ”

Shu Mei nodded.

She is so docile today, as if the Ah Mei who obeyed him has returned. His heart moved, and he stretched out his hand and took her by the hand, and led her into the temple. Her hand was cold, but he couldn't help but clench a little as he had ever refused.

This is the second time she has taken the initiative to come to Funing Palace. Ling Li still clearly remembered that last time, she came to ask for peace with him. Why did she come this time?

Although Ling Li was vigilant in his heart, he couldn't help but secretly hope: Perhaps, after having a child, her temperament has changed? Perhaps, she is willing to accept him for the sake of the child?

The two entered the hall, and Shu Mei caught a glimpse of the piles of slashes in front of the brocade couch in the hall, and stopped, "Your Majesty is still staying up late to approve slashers?" ”

"It's almost over." Ling Li was afraid that she would turn around and leave, so he hurriedly turned around and instructed Xiao Dongzi, "Move these slashers to the imperial study." ”

"Since it hasn't been approved, then Your Majesty will approve it first, and I'll wait by the side." Shu Mei said.

Xiao Dongzi was carrying a bamboo basket to load the slashes, and when he heard Shu Mei's words, he turned his head to look at Ling Li, who nodded, "Then let's put it first." You go out first. ”

Xiao Dongzi hurriedly put down the basket and walked out, and when he walked to the door, he didn't forget to close the door of the palace lightly.

"Your hands are so cold, sit by the fire for a while." Ling Li took Shu Mei to the gilded dragon furnace, untied her cloak and hung it up, poured another cup of hot tea and handed it to her.

"Your Majesty, leave me alone, let's approve the slash first." Shu Mei took the tea road.

Unable to guess Shu Mei's intention to come to the Funing Palace, Ling Li had no choice but to take the sword and look at it absentmindedly.

She wouldn't have come to bed on her own initiative, would she? Ling Li raised her eyes to look at Shu Mei, she was sitting in front of the brocade stool, holding the tea in her hand, and her eyes were looking around the hall, as if this room was the first time she had entered.

"Ah Mei, do you have something to say to me?" Ling Li asked.

"Well, the concubine has a request." Shu Mei looked at him and said cautiously.

Another request? Ling Li was a little nervous in his heart, but he still forced himself to calm down and said, "What Ah Mei wants, just say it." ”

"I've heard people say that Frost became a mother in the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, and I want to go to Beili to see their mother and son."

It's not Heli, it's not to leave the palace, Ling Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Well, she also gave birth to a prince, and I have asked Honglu Temple to go to Beilin to send congratulatory gifts in your name." ”

"I just want to see with my own eyes how they're doing."

Lest she misunderstand herself and not let her go, Ling Li hurriedly said: "This season has passed, it is still cold and snowy over there, you have always been in poor health, why don't you go after the summer, and you should cool off?" ”

Shu Mei looked at him and didn't answer for a while. Ling Li hurriedly said again: "By the way, I am going to hold a wedding for Yu Yao and Chen Ping after the Hua Dynasty Festival, and Shen Zhu is about to marry a wife, why don't Ah Mei attend their wedding banquet and then set off?" ”

"Lord Shen is going to marry a wife?" Shu Mei seemed a little surprised.

"Well, he wants to marry a cousin from his uncle's family." Ling Li said with a smile. He wanted to let her see the excitement on the day of the wedding, and deliberately did not reveal Jin Yao's identity.

"Okay, then after Lord Shen gets married, I'll go to Bei Lone." Shu Mei stood up and gently placed the teacup on the small table in front of him, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your permission." ”

Seeing that she was leaving, Ling Li got up and grabbed her hand, "Ah Mei." ”

Shu Mei looked up at Ling Li, "Your Majesty has something to order?" ”

"Are you still angry with me?" Ling Li asked worriedly.

Shu Mei bit his lip and looked at him for a while before shaking his head.

"You're not angry?" Ling Li couldn't help but be overjoyed and put her hand on his chest.

"Your Majesty must be tired of staying up all night to approve the slashers, and the concubine will prepare some snacks for Your Majesty, okay?"

Ling Li looked at her in disbelief, and then nodded again and again, "Okay, there's Lao Amei." ”

Shu Mei pulled his hand out of his hand, turned around and walked towards the outside of the hall.

Looking at Shu Mei's back, Ling Li felt a burst of excitement in her heart: she wanted to prepare snacks for herself! Would she also be willing to stay in the Funing Palace?

These days, he was busy dealing with some troublesome things caused by the reform of the bureaucracy, and he didn't let people take good care of this dormitory. The brocade couch and the wooden table were full of books, archives and slashers, and the incense she liked in the past had not been burned, and she had not been to the Funing Hall for a long time, and her pajamas were not ready...... He hurriedly called Xiao Dongzi to come in and clean up the house, prepare incense, and instructed the palace people to prepare clothes for soothing his eyebrows and changing clothes.

After a while, when Shu Mei walked into the hall with the food box, the brocade couch that was originally full of slashes had been cleaned up, and a white porcelain plum vase from the kiln was placed on the wooden table next to it, although there were no flowers in it, but there was a red plum silk flower made of incense.

Shu Mei looked around the hall, but Ling Li was not in the hall.

Shu Mei put the food box on the wooden table, and couldn't help frowning: Did he act too actively, he noticed it?!

"It smells so good! What is delicious to make? ”

Ling Li's voice came from behind her, Shu Mei was startled, and when she turned around, she saw Ling Li, who had changed into a tea white robe, walking in from the side hall with a smile with the warm fragrance after bathing.

"Minister...... Concubines will only be Qingtuan. Shu Mei didn't dare to look directly at his smiling eyebrows, so he only buried his head in uncovering the food box, "At this time of year, there is no fresh wormwood, and the berries and wheat grass leaves used by the concubines take juice, presumably, the taste must not be so good......"

"As long as it's made by Ah Mei, I love to eat it."

Ling Li walked to the table, took the initiative to reach out and pick up a steaming Qingtuan from the food box, fed it into his mouth and chewed it heavily. Shu Mei suddenly looked at him with wide eyes.

"What's wrong?" Ling Li saw that her expression was different, and hurriedly asked.

"Isn't it unpalatable?" Shu Mei looked a little flustered.

"Delicious, sweet and delicious." Ling Li picked up another one, and was about to put it in his mouth, when he suddenly paused again, handed it to her mouth and said, "Do you want to taste it?" ”

Looking at the silver-white tooth-like scar on Ling Li's right hand tiger's mouth, Shu Mei recalled the scene where she bit him the day of childbirth, a little shocked, she hurriedly lowered her eyes to avoid it, shook her head and said, "The concubine is not hungry." ”

"I remember the last time I ate the Qingtuan you made, it was in Anyuan." Ling Li smiled at the corners of his lips and sat down on the chair next to the wooden table.
