The first thing Zhao Zhen did after returning to the palace was to go to Hongfu Courtyard to see the body of his biological mother Li.

Zhao Zhen ordered someone to open the coffin, only to see Li Jingshu wearing a queen mother's dress, lying quietly in the coffin, her face cast by mercury intact.

"Queen Mother......" Zhao Zhen couldn't help but rush to the coffin and cry.

After so many years of forbearance, he dared to cry uncontrollably today.

For so many years, he had to pretend to be indifferent and forbear everything, even if he knew about his biological mother, he didn't dare to investigate.

His love, his hate, his pain, his tiredness, all have to endure, this forbearance is more than ten years, for a child, what a cruel thing!

"Queen Mother, it's a child who is not filial!"

Zhao Zhen cried so much that his internal organs were burned. is not only crying for Li's unfortunate life, but also crying for the more than ten years he has endured.

After a long time, Zhao Zhen slowly came to his senses, he stopped crying, and asked Di Qing beside him: "Do you know who changed the Empress Dowager Li's dress and put it into the funeral?" ”

Di Qing said: "It was Lu Xianggong who strongly recommended that Empress Dowager Liu do this. ”

"Can Liu E listen to Lu Yijian's words? Didn't she kill my mother? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, I have already examined the body of Empress Dowager Li, she did not die of poisoning, but tuberculosis."

"Not her?" Zhao Zhen was a little skeptical.

At this time, Lingyun of Liushang Palace was coming to deliver paper money and candles to Hongfu Temple, and she saw that the official family was here, so she walked in.

Ling Yun said to Zhao Zhen Shili: "Slave and maid Shang Palace Bureau Ling Yun see the official family. The official family, the slave maid and Li Niangniang entered the palace together, and let the slave tell a story to the official family! ”

Zhao Zhen looked at Ling Yun blankly, he couldn't believe that his mother was actually Liu E's maid, and she had been loyal to her for so many years.

"Official, Li Niangniang is willing to hand you over to Empress Dowager Liu to raise, she said, 'If Empress Liu raises the prince, there will be no more killings in the palace.

You will be made the crown prince and will take over the throne of the Great Song Dynasty in the future, only someone like Empress Liu has the ability to assist you in ascending the throne smoothly, and your queen mother cannot be just a little palace maid! ’

Li Niangniang said that the thing she regretted was that she should not believe the instigation of the eight kings and set off another round of party disputes. The Great Song Dynasty needs peace, the people need stability, and only a stable heir can make all this come true, so she is willing to refuse to recognize her as a mother for the rest of your life. ”

Ling Yun took out the piece of Nine Dragons Jade that Li Jingshu gave her and handed it to Zhao Zhen, "Official, this is what Li Niangniang handed over to the slave maid before the funeral, and asked the slave and maid to pass it on to Your Majesty."

She told her servants to tell Her Majesty, 'Don't make the same mistake as motherhood again.' 'Official, Li Niangniang hopes that you will have the world in mind and be a wise saint! ”

It turned out that the piece of Nine Dragons Jade was presented to Liu E, but unfortunately Liu E was defeated, and Ling Yun took back this piece of Nine Dragons Jade again.

Zhao Zhen held the flawless jade in his hand that everyone wanted, and once again burst into tears.

He had mixed feelings in his heart, he didn't expect his mother to be such a person who knew the righteousness, she didn't just think of her own pain and hatred, she sacrificed so much for the sake of the overall situation, for herself, she was willing to live in the cold palace for ten years without fear......

Zhao Zhen held the piece of Nine Dragons jade tightly, the piece of jade that symbolized imperial power, he hated Liu E, and felt that the hatred was too small at the moment, she was the same pitiful person as his mother.

------

Lu Yijian was self-aware, and after returning to Beijing, he directly handed over the power to the table, saying that he was old and seriously ill, and asked the official family to allow him to return to his hometown for retirement. Because Lu Yijian had a meritorious role in guarding the body of Empress Dowager Li, Zhao Zhen named him "Tai Lieutenant" and tried his best to keep him.

Zhao Zhen ordered Fan Zhongyan to temporarily take the post of Tongping Zhangshi, and planned to be promoted to other meritorious ministers.

So many affairs have to be done one by one, but now there is another important thing for the official Zhao Zhen to do in person, that is, to go to the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau.

White lanterns were still hanging at the gate of the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau, and the paper money that was sprinkled all over the place did not have time to be cleaned.

A simple carriage stopped at the door of the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau, and the pro-army in front of the palace commanded Di Qing to come to mourn in white.

He entered the compound, Lu Chang personally came out to greet him, and Di Qing walked to Sikong Qi

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

In front of the mourning hall, he knelt down in front of the rank and buckled his head three times. Lu Chang returned the salute and bowed.

Waiting for Di Qing to get up, Lu Chang said, "Thank you, Commander Di, for coming to worship as a teacher in person." ”

Di Qing said: "Mr. Sikong is my senior, and I should be like this. Then he turned around and asked, "Is the Lord of Le'an still in the dart game?" ”

Lu Chang knew that he couldn't hide it, so he said: "Master was killed, she was also seriously injured, she fell ill after Master mourned, and now she is recuperating in the backyard." ”

"Please ask Uncle Lu to lead the way, I want to go to see the county lord in person."

"This ...... I'm afraid she won't go with Commander Di, right? ”

Di Qing said: "Whether to go or not to go needs to listen to the order of the county lord, I am also here by order, please lead the way." ”

When he arrived at the room where Ye Pei was resting, Di Qing knocked on the door and entered. Seeing Di Qing, Ye Pei was also surprised.

"Second Brother Di, why are you here?"

Di Qing turned over and saluted: "Minister Di Qing see the Lord of Le'an." ”

Ye Pei struggled to get up, "Why is Second Brother Di so polite?" ”

"The minister was ordered to take the county lord back to the palace."

Ye Pei immediately understood why Di Qing was so courteous to him, so he asked, "The matter of sacrificing to the heavens has already passed?" ”

"All the best!"

Ye Pei nodded and said to himself, "That's good, the sixth brother shouldn't need me anymore." ”

She said to Di Qing: "Second Brother Di, it's not that I don't want to go back, but my master has just died, and I need to mourn for him." ”

Di Qing looked up at Ye Pei, with an indescribable look in his eyes, and he whispered to Ye Pei: "County Lord, the official family has personally come to pick you up outside the door of the dart bureau." ”

"Ah, cough, cough, how could he come out of the palace at such a time?" Ye Pei injured his heart and lungs because of Guo Chao's pair of nunchucks, and at this time, he began to cough when he was excited.

Di Qing looked at Ye Pei like that, he hoped that Ye Pei could go back to the palace with him. I also hope that Ye Pei will never go back, and will only live in the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau to be the daughter of the Dart Bureau in the future.

Ye Pei lowered his head and pondered, and finally said, "Okay, I'll go back with you." ”

Di Qing sighed in his heart and said, "Okay, the minister is waiting for the county lord in the courtyard." ”

Sister-in-law Bai personally helped Ye Pei change his clothes and helped Ye Pei out of the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau.

As soon as he got into the carriage, Zhao Zhen saw Ye Pei, who was thinking about it for a long time, and hugged her into his arms.

"Pei'er, do you know that we have succeeded!"

Because Zhao Zhen used too much force, Ye Pei's wound was involved, and she couldn't help but exhale, "Oops......"

Zhao Zhen let go of Ye Pei and asked, "Pei'er, what's wrong with you?" ”

Ye Pei shook his head, "It's okay, it's just that when I saved my master, I was attacked by the 'Yin and Yang Twin Evils'." ”

Zhao Zhen gently hugged Ye Pei into his arms again, "No one in the harem dares to bully you anymore, I will protect you thoroughly!" ”

"As long as the sixth brother goes smoothly, it's fine." Ye Pei squeezed out a smile and nodded gently.

The carriage carried the two people back to the palace and quickly returned to the palace, and Ye Pei lived back in the Qifeng Pavilion that he was familiar with.

Zhao Zhen ordered the imperial physician Liu Congen to personally diagnose her, but fortunately, Liu Congen said that Ye Pei was just a traumatic injury, and it would naturally be better to recuperate for a period of time, so Zhao Zhen was relieved.

Due to Ye Pei's injury to his right arm, Zhao Zhen personally fed her medicine and food, and watched Ye Pei sleep and kept guarding in Qifeng Pavilion.

Because Ye Pei took painkiller decoction, he slept very deeply.

When she woke up, she found that there was still a person lying next to her, and she was scared to wake up.

"Jinhe, palm lamp!" Ye Pei called Miao Jinhe in the dark.

"Pei'er, it's me!" It turned out to be Zhao Zhen's voice.

"Sixth brother, what time is this? Why are you still with me? Am I sleeping? ”

At this time, Miao Jinhe came into the house and turned on the light in the house. "County Lord!" She asked tentatively.

Ye Pei asked, "What time is it?" ”

Miao Jinhe said: "It's almost time." ”

Ye Peiyi frowned.

"Go down." Zhao Zhen commanded.

Miao Jinhe Shili exited the dormitory.

There was a bright light in the room, and Ye Pei found Zhao Zhen and Yi lying on his bed

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

, hugged himself and slept for half the night.

"Sixth brother, why is he still in my pavilion at this hour?" Ye Pei struggled to sit up.

Zhao Zhen said: "Don't move! Liu Congen said that you are injured in your back, vibrating your internal organs, and you need to rest well. As he spoke, he hugged Ye Pei and lay down.

Ye Pei lay obediently in Zhao Zhen's arms, and her delicate and weak appearance attracted Zhao Zhen's pity even more.

"We can finally be together in the name of justice!" Zhao Zhen couldn't help but lean down and wanted to kiss Ye Pei.

Ye Pei blocked it with his left hand and said, "Don't!" ”

Zhao Zhen pinched Ye Pei's chin and asked, "Don't you want to be my woman?" ”

Ye Pei's face flushed, and he put his head close to Zhao Zhen's shoulder and said, "My master's new talent has died, but I am here to be happy, but it is not good." I'm going to hold a funeral for Master! ”

Zhao Zhen thought of his biological mother and said very understandingly: "Then you keep filial piety for three months, and I will marry you after three months." ”

Ye Pei was very relieved to see that Zhao Zhen was not forcing herself, she took Zhao Zhen's hand and said, "Sixth brother, thank you." ”

"We still have a lot of things to do, I have to treat my biological mother's funeral first, those heroes will be rewarded one by one, and the personnel in the palace will also be changed. ......" The two snuggled together and discussed.

Ye Pei said kindly: "Well, I'll help you with the affairs in the palace." I have to go back to the Eight Kings' Mansion, my eldest brother is dead, and I always have to visit my aunt. ”

"Yes, I have called the eighth princess my mother for so many years, but now I have to change my words."

"Well, I don't know what kind of sadness my aunt wants."

Zhao Zhen looked at Ye Pei distressedly, "And your father, I will overturn the case for him, and when the time comes, I want to make him the prince of the country and receive the title of Taifu." ”

Ye Pei was very comforted, she held Zhao Zhen's hand tighter, "Thank you, sixth brother, for remembering my father." It's just that Taifu and Guogong don't want it, the official position is too high. ”

"Then the crown prince will be crowned Shaobao and go to the pillar country."

……

The two men snuggled together and talked in the dim light until they heard the drum beat five times.

A person's footsteps from far to near, Chen Zhongyi said softly through the curtain: "Official, it's time to go to court." ”

Zhao Zhen frowned and agreed, sat up slowly, and instructed Chen Zhongyi: "Okay, you put down your robe, I'll wear it myself." ”

Chen Zhongyi put down the tray in his hand and exited the house as ordered, Zhao Zhen got up and got out of bed, took off his crumpled robe, and put on a new robe.

Zhao Zhen was used to being served, and he gestured to the vertical large bronze mirror for a long time, but he couldn't tie the side button.

Ye Pei was lying on the bed looking at Zhao Zhen's funny appearance, and laughed "giggle", but the smile caused pain in the wound, so he had to keep his mouth shut.

Zhao Zhen said angrily: "You are still laughing, and you don't come to serve me to change clothes." ”

Zhao Zhen habitually stretched his arms, and Ye Pei got out of bed to tie the side buttons for him and arrange the hem of his robe.

Zhao Zhen looked at Ye Pei, who was close at hand, wearing a bedgown with his hair scattered, and suddenly hugged her in his arms and kissed her.

"After three months, your injuries will be healed, and I will take you as my courtier."

Ye Pei pursed his lips when he heard this.

It turned out that this imperial attendant was the lowest concubine, equivalent to the palace maid who served in the bed.

Ye Pei lay softly in Zhao Zhen's arms, and said unhappily: "If you don't make me the queen, don't you even give me a concubine and Jieyu?" ”

Zhao Zhen laughed proudly, "You left me alone for your master, and now you still want to ask me for the throne?" ”

Ye Pei pushed Zhao Zhen away and said angrily: "Then I don't care about you." ”

Zhao Zhen hugged Ye Pei and said with a smile: "Then if you give birth to a dragon son for me, I will give you a promotion, from the imperial servant to the noble, talented, beautiful, Jieyu, Chongyuan, Xiuyi, Shunrong, Shuyi...... Oh, you're going to give me at least a dozen princes and princesses, hahaha. ”

"Sixth brother, you are necrotic!" Ye Pei blushed and patted Zhao Zhen gently.

"I just want you to be by my side all the time." Zhao Zhen said affectionately.

Ye Pei's eyes were a little moist, "I don't want any seals either." As long as my sixth brother is okay all the time. ”

The two snuggled up for a while, and Zhao Zhen helped Ye Pei back to lie on the bed before he went to the court.
