Gu Zhiheng was angry, but suddenly felt a burst of warmth from his hand, and He Nuanliang's words of concern were in his ears, and he felt that the whole person was warm, and his face was slightly soothed.

"Nothing." Gu Zhiheng shook his head, and a smile barely came out of his face: "This king has nothing to do, but he is just a little unwilling." Nuan Liang doesn't have to care about this king. ”

As soon as he heard this unwillingness, He Nuanliang, who didn't understand why Gu Zhiheng was depressed in his heart, also understood the reason at this time, his eyes first turned to Shen Huo's direction, then turned his head, looked at Shen Huo, and asked a little tentatively: "Your Highness, could it be ......?"

"Shh Gu Zhiheng stretched out a hand, blocked He Nuanliang's mouth, and whispered, "The wall has ears." It's not a good place to talk. When it comes to the celebration banquet, I will return to the house and talk about it in detail. ”

He Nuanliang nodded, naturally understanding what Gu Zhiheng meant. The two waited quietly for the celebration banquet to end. While waiting, it didn't take long for the celebration banquet to end, and Gu Zhiheng and He Nuanliang returned to King Wu's mansion together.

Although Gu Zhiheng and the two left together, the matter in the palace did not come to an end. The queen was also at the celebration banquet, carefully observing the scene in front of her.

This observation, the queen naturally also saw the emperor's attitude, and she was very happy in her heart. It's just that he can't do politics in the harem, so he barely endures it, just thinking about blowing the wind in his ears to the emperor in the future.

After the celebration banquet was over, the queen hesitated for a while, but turned her head and did not follow the emperor to leave, but went to the East Palace to discuss things with Shen Huo.

"Emperor, this palace has something I want to say to you." I saw that the queen took advantage of the fact that the celebration banquet had just ended, and it was when the flow of people was chaotic, she walked to Shen Huo's side and whispered to Shen Huo.

Although Shen Huo was a little surprised, he also knew that the queen would not do anything unfavorable to him, so he just nodded: "Queen Mother, Erchen knows." Let's go back to the East Palace, and then talk slowly. ”

The queen nodded, and the two left hand in hand, heading in the direction of the East Palace. After entering the main hall of the East Palace, Shen Huo personally withdrew from everyone, and then said to the queen: "There is no one else except you and me at the moment." If the queen mother wants to say anything, she does not hesitate to say it to her son. ”

The queen didn't hesitate, just smiled again, and said to Shen Huo: "Emperor, the attitude of the ministers and the emperor, you must have seen it." How do you feel? ”

"Erchen was very happy in his heart, but he was a little apprehensive and uneasy." Shen Huo thought about it, decided not to hide it anymore, and said honestly to the queen.

"Where does this joy come from, and where does the anxiety and anxiety come from?" The queen listened to what Shen Huo said, and did not comment on it, but looked at Shen Huo with some expectation and encouraged Shen Huo to continue.

Shen Huo said again: "This joy is naturally because I saw the attitude of my father and the ministers, and thought that my son might be able to become the prince again, so I was naturally very happy in my heart." ”

"And this apprehension and uneasiness." Shen Huo paused, and then said, "It's from the uncertainty of the future." In the deep palace, it is naturally like being on the edge of the abyss, like walking on thin ice, this truth, Erchen still understands. ”

"In this matter, because of the success of the peace agreement with the Chu State, the minister won the joy and trust of his father. If the next time the son makes a mistake and causes his father to be dissatisfied, what will it be? ”

"That's why Erchen felt apprehensive and uneasy." Shen Huo lowered his eyes and said to the queen seriously.

And the queen listened carefully to what Shen Huo said, and couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, with a little approval in her eyes: "Not bad." After these things, the emperor has really matured a lot. Looking at the problem now, it is not as one-sided as before, but has become concrete. ”

The queen paused slightly, and then said: "Intrigue in this harem is not uncommon. Ministers are accustomed to stepping on highs and lows, and it is not a big deal. These are just external factors, and they are not worth the emperor's attention. ”

"What can really influence the emperor is the emperor's own ability. This is the reason why the emperor can rise to the top. The queen smiled, "Just imagine, if the emperor goes to Chu to negotiate peace this time, if he returns from failure, even if there are many courtiers who praise him, will the emperor still be as tempted as he is now, and want to restore the emperor as the crown prince." ”

The queen's words, every sentence is extraordinarily reasonable. Shen Huo stood aside and listened silently, and couldn't help but pause. The dark clouds that have been hanging in my heart these days have also drifted away because of the queen's few words.

"Thank you to the queen mother, my son understands." Shen Huo bowed respectfully to the queen and said: "In the past, although the ministers had the will to work hard, they were confused in their hearts, so they hesitated and didn't know how to act in the future. ”

"And now that the queen mother says this, the son's belief is a little firmer, and he is not as confused as in the past." Shen Huo smiled, faintly revealing a little relief.

Seeing Shen Huo like this, the queen naturally felt extremely pleased, and her eyes added a little praise: "The emperor can think like this, and the palace is very relieved." ”

"Then what should the emperor do next?" The queen looked at Shen Huo and asked silently.

After Shen Huo heard this, after thinking about it for a while, he looked at the queen again and said, "Erchen has decided now, and he will work hard first, and then slowly figure it out." ”

"Soon, the retainers will end their rest and return to the court. When the time comes, the sons must work hard to impress their father. When the father and emperor trust his son enough, the position of the prince will not fall into the hands of his son. ”

Shen Huo smiled again and said firmly. At this moment, a gentle breeze blew, and it happened to pass through the window and enter the inner sanctum. The wind lifted Shen Huo's messy hair, not only did it not make him messy and haggard, but it looked Shen Huo heroic, and his unprovoked ambition was highlighted from it.

The queen carefully looked at the look on Shen Huo's face, and couldn't help but nod with satisfaction: "Very good." The emperor can think like this, it's right. The palace is very relieved, and hopes that the emperor can continue to persevere. ”

Suddenly, the queen thought of something again, looked at Shen Huo and ordered, "There is one more thing." Although this palace understands your joy for Ayi, the most important thing at the moment is not the love of children, but the best efforts to make a difference, do you understand?"

Shen Huo nodded, signaling that he naturally understood. The queen said again: "In addition to this matter, the emperor must also understand that as long as the emperor has something to do and has his own power, bringing Ayi back will no longer be a matter of proximity, but within reach." ”

This is particularly reasonable, and Shen Huo naturally listened to everything in his heart. And the queen has been watching him closely, how can she not know what is going on in his heart?

The queen's face showed a little satisfaction, and said, "Today, the palace will tell you so much. These words are the heartfelt words of the palace, and I hope the emperor can hear them from the bottom of his heart. ”

Listening to the queen's words, Shen Huo was grateful to the queen for her motherly love and kindness to herself, but she just nodded solemnly, not to mention it. After that, the two chatted for a while about how to work hard, and the queen saw that it was getting late, so she stopped staying in Shen Huo Palace and turned to leave.

Today's words with the queen undoubtedly made Shen Huo's already extremely strong belief burn more and more. Shen Huo secretly clenched his fists, and silently thought in his heart: Ayi, wait for the palace.

Thinking as if there is power, this Shen Huo is thinking about what he is relying on, and he is thinking about what he is relying on in the sky, and he is also secretly thinking about Shen Huo.

It has been a few days since Shen Huo discussed and succeeded and left the Chu State. But the longing for Shen Huo is indeed like a crazy weed, intensifying.

As long as he thought of the words that Shen Huo said to himself before parting, He Suoyi felt that all the suffering he had suffered in the Chu State in front of him became not worth mentioning. He was just looking forward to the bottom of his heart that one day, Shen Huo would be able to take him back to Da Zhou.

With such an idea, when He Suoyi went to see Chu Lingshen again, he was a little more reluctant than before. She was not happy about Chu Lingshen, but now that she was thinking that she was about to leave Chu State, she couldn't give Chu Lingshen the slightest hope. Therefore, He Suoyi was extremely cold to Chu Lingshen.

However, Chu Lingshen thought that he had made compromises, and he had paid so many things for what he was relying on, and even Shen Huo, who was the most unbearable, reluctantly endured it and made peace with him, just to make the beauty smile.

Chu Lingshen thought that he had paid so much to He Suoyi, and He Suoyi must have seen it all in his eyes, and the relationship between the two might change a lot. With such thoughts, Chu Lingshen became more and more attentive to He Suoyi.

This cold and hot, one attentive and one reluctant, naturally forms a stark contrast. He Suoyi always felt extremely uncomfortable every time he looked at Chu Lingshen, but he was still in the palace of the king of Chu at the moment, and he was a little helpless.

On this day, He Suoyi was doing some embroidery with Jinyu and Zijin in Fengyi Palace, enjoying a rare quiet time, but there were suddenly a few noises outside.

He Suoyi frowned and looked over, and when he saw who was coming, his eyes couldn't help flashing a little helplessness, but there was still nothing he could do, so he stepped forward and greeted: "Your Highness." ”

"Hmm. Ayi, this king has come to see you. How's it going, are there any discomforts in your body these days?" With this voice, a person stepped forward, walked in front of He Suoyi in a few steps, and said to He Suoyi with concern.

It turned out that the person who came was not someone else, it was Chu Lingshen.
