As the night deepened, the majestic imperial city fell silent, leaving only thousands of palace lights swaying silently in the wind and snow.

Fushou Palace has a little more popularity, but it looks more deserted than in previous years, even Hongyu, who has been accustomed to the days in the palace, after two months of travel, returned to the palace city and gave birth to a little sadness, secretly worried about this trip out of the palace, will it be the last time in this life, for the next few decades, you have to stay in this palace city without anything, until the red face is old.

Under the big ginkgo tree, there are three burnt incense sticks, and the back window of the dormitory next to it is open.

The Queen Mother, dressed in a crimson nightdress, lay on her side on a pillow, staring blankly at the mottled reflection of the branches and the wind and snow in front of the window, and her mind flashed back to every detail on the snowy mountain.

She thought that those days on the snowy mountain were the most beautiful and free days in her life, and she would never experience them again in the future.

Later, Night Terror immediately comforted her, so that she dispelled her doubts and felt that there would be better ones in the future.

But after she actually came back, she found that the days of hugging each other in the blanket were indeed the happiest days of her life.

Since the return to the meeting, she is not the only one in front of the Night Terror Hall, and when she returns to Beijing by boat, she can only take the time to sneak a look at the door; And at this time, when I returned to the palace, even a peek at the door became a luxury.

The Queen Mother didn't want to worry about these, but in the face of the empty bedroom, there was still an inevitable change of emotions in her eyes, revealing a touch of sadness.

He also said that he cared about the palace as much as he cared about the love of his heart......

I don't know who I'm having fun with.,What about this palace......

Hum......

I don't know how many days the time has passed, just when the Queen Mother is full of sorrow and doesn't know how to sleep peacefully, there seems to be a shadow on the wall.

Then, like a gust of wind entering the room, the bead curtain shook slightly.

Call~

？

The Queen Mother, who was half-asleep and half-awake, thought that she was dazzled, and slightly propped up her body to look at the window, but when she raised her eyes, she saw a sneaky black shadow, and gently opened the bead curtain and walked to the phoenix couch.

"Ahh

The Queen Mother was so shocked that she was about to scream, but she found that the black shadow flew over like a vicious tiger pounced, covered her lips, and put the quilt on her head, so that she could only make a muffled 'woo' sound.

The body of the person who came was very heavy, and the person who was pressed was almost out of breath.

Although the Queen Mother couldn't see anything, she just recognized the person through the touch of her body, and the struggle was a little smaller, but she still twisted around.

"Shhh

Hongu knows it's you!

When the Queen Mother heard the familiar clear voice, she panicked even more in her heart, and wanted to push this bold color embryo down, but she couldn't push it, so she could only grab the hand of the Night Terror Hall and prevent him from tearing his clothes hard.

The Night Terror Hall naturally didn't mean to force the overlord to bow hard, but he was afraid that the Queen Mother would go down and call half of the secret guards of the imperial city.

After making sure that the Queen Mother was not shouting, he lifted the quilt, looked down at the embarrassed and confused cheeks, raised his right hand, and gestured to the hot oil-paper bag in his hand:

"Mother, are you hungry?"

The Queen Mother was pressed on the pillow, panicked to death, how could she have the heart to look at this, made a thin angry appearance, and whispered:

"Night Terrors, you are so daring, do you know what this place is? Who let you in? If you don't go out again, this palace will call people! ”

Seeing that the Queen Mother dared to murder him, the night terror hall turned pale with a sinking face, and immediately prepared to bow her head and gag it.

"Huh?"

The Queen Mother was stunned for a second, and hurriedly blocked the mouth of the night terror, and took a few breaths of relief before looking sideways at the oil paper bag:

"What is this?"

"Roast chicken."

Night Terror Hall sat up, put the oiled paper bag on the small bedside case, and helped the Queen Mother up:

"Authentic kiln roast chicken, I know that Niangniang didn't eat a good meal today, so I bought it for Niangniang, and it's still hot, let's eat it."

The Queen Mother didn't want to eat today, she did not eat a drop of water, she had no appetite, but after seeing the night terror, her stomach suddenly became a little hungry again.

But eating people has a soft mouth, if she eats the night snack sent by the Night Terror Hall, she may not know what to be eaten by the Night Terror Hall, so she got up and wrapped herself in the quilt at the moment, and hummed softly:

"If the palace wants to eat, the imperial dining room can make soup and deliver it in the middle of the night, how can you eat the things sold by these street stalls."

Seeing this, Night Terror Hall didn't force it, and got up with an oiled paper wrap:

"Okay, I'll go and inform the imperial dining room to send food over, and the mother will eat something and then sleep, I'll always be hungry and hurt my body."

"Huh?"

The Queen Mother saw that the night terror hall was leaving, and subconsciously pulled his sleeve.

Night Terror Hall looked back, slightly puzzled:

"Niangniang still has orders?"

The Queen Mother pursed her lips, but finally softened a little:

"Hmm...... Forget it, you bought everything, and Bengong will eat whatever you want, so as not to disappoint your kindness. ”

The night terror hall was satisfied, and felt that it was inconvenient to sit on the bed and eat, so he leaned over and crossed his arms through the crook of his legs, picked up the queen mother, and came to the small terrace on the side of the dormitory.

The Queen Mother tightened her body, gritted her silver teeth, and didn't say anything.

The terrace faces the back garden, and there is a table on it, where you can play the piano and play chess and drink tea on weekdays, when a thin layer of snowflakes falls on the outside of the terrace under the light snow.

The night terror hall put the queen mother down, found that it was a little cold, took a blanket from inside, sat on the terrace, raised the blanket, and hooked her hands.

“……”

The Queen Mother was wearing a nightdress, and she would definitely suffer a big loss when she leaned in, but when she saw the familiar scene, she still couldn't help it, sat down silently beside her, naturally leaned in her arms, and opened the oiled paper bag on the small case.

Rushing~

The Night Terror Hall wrapped the Queen Mother in a thin blanket as if in a snowy mountain, and asked with a smile:

"How does it taste?"

The Queen Mother touched it from under her nightdress, pulled out a silver knife from her leg ring, and tasted it while wearing a piece of crispy roast chicken, because she was full of emotions in her heart, and did not respond.

Night Terror sighed secretly, hugged a little tighter, and talked about the messy little things:

"When I came to Beijing in April, the first meal I ate was this roast chicken. At that time, there were only two taels of silver left in his pocket, and he couldn't even afford to rent a better house, but thinking that he couldn't be bitter anymore, he cut one and ate it with the bird.

"The taste of this roast chicken is definitely not as good as the vinegared fish of the chef of Sifangzhai, but it is indeed my most memorable meal, after all, after that meal, I am no longer the young owner of the dart game, and I have become a helpless prodigal son on the streets, how to do it in the future, whether I can find a way to make a living, and even how long I can live is unknown, full of melancholy, I ate unhappily, and the result was all robbed by the unconscionable birds......"

The Queen Mother ate roast chicken in small bites, although she knew that the night terror hall was the last to soar into the sky, and she never worried about the silver again, but when she heard the helpless situation when she was down, she was still a little distressed, and after thinking about it, she raised her eyes and said:

"Night Terrors, do you want to drink?"

Night Terror Hall is not good for wine, but in this situation, it seems that there is no mood for two sips, so he got up and took a pot of liquor prepared for Xuanji Zhenren from the dormitory, sat down again, and poured a big sip.

"Gollum...... Hiss ~ Hoo...... It's so strong. ”

The Queen Mother lifted the chicken nugget with a knife and wanted the Night Terror Hall to take a bite to suppress it, but the Night Terror Hall didn't answer, but looked at her lips and stopped talking.

The Queen Mother has seen the secret history of Cleopatra, and she really knows how to eat when men and women are greasy and crooked, and frowned slightly:

"Night Terror, you're presumptuous, aren't you? Who do you think of Hongu? ”

Seeing that the Queen Mother refused to condescend to feed him, the Night Terror Hall didn't say anything, poured a sip of wine, and went up to serve the Queen Mother.

"You ......"

The Queen Mother obviously wanted to hide, but she was hugged in a blanket, where could she hide, and she was still smacked after twisting a few times, and the spicy wine fragrance came from her lips and teeth.

The Queen Mother's cheeks suddenly turned a little red, but she was helpless, and after parting, she fanned her hand and took a few big bites before she pressed down the liquor covered by the Heavenly Spirit.

Night Terror Hall smiled and helped the Queen Mother smooth her back:

"Eat well and sleep well in the future, don't be sentimental all day long. I have always been a talker, my mother cares about me, I will come to visit; Don't worry about me, I have to come to visit, don't even think about getting rid of me. ”

The Queen Mother was also helpless by this dead-faced man, so she just ate silently and didn't respond.

The Night Terror Hall didn't bother, silently watching the snow scene of the imperial city, and when she was almost finished, she put her hand to her mouth and exhaled:

"Whew~ It's so cold, my hands are frozen."

？

The Queen Mother is not stupid, how can she not understand the meaning of these words, and want to refuse, but the Night Terror Hall will definitely forcibly warm her hands, think about it, grit her teeth and endure the humiliation, hold her hand and put it in her arms, and at the same time admonished:

"This is the last time, don't think that this palace is a submissive woman...... Woo~......"

The cold hand of the night terror hall held it softly, and it felt much more comfortable, so he picked up the queen mother and sat in her arms, becoming a very familiar posture with each other.

The Queen Mother bit her lower lip and tried to put on the Queen Mother's aura, but she couldn't hold it up at all, and finally buried her face in the blanket and endured it silently.

Whew~~

Outside, there was a light snowfall, and there was no sound on the terrace, except for men and women hugging each other.

The night terror hall was not lightly or heavy, and he didn't move his hands and feet, but quietly felt the heartbeat and breath of the beautiful woman in his arms.

I don't know how long it took, the Queen Mother gradually relaxed her mind under the warm embrace, and slowly fell asleep.

Seeing this, Night Terror Hall breathed a sigh of relief, slowly picked up the Queen Mother, returned to the dormitory and put it on the phoenix couch, and gently covered the quilt.

In the originally empty and deserted dormitory, although the furnishings have not changed much, the sleeping Queen Mother feels that the lonely and bitter lady is too warm......

——

Coming out of Fushou Palace, the night was already dark.

Night Terror Hall bullied the hand warmer for a long time, and I felt a lot more refreshed.

When he entered the palace in the evening, he was mainly summoned by the black government in the afternoon, so that he could take time to come to the palace to resume his life after he was busy with the family.

The night terror hall was supposed to enter the palace tomorrow, but I was afraid that the queen mother had just come back and couldn't sleep at night, so I came over at night, and as a result, I coaxed for a long time without paying attention.

Seeing that it was not early, the Night Terror Hall tidied up his clothes and walked briskly to Changle Palace after the cold wind blew down the distracting thoughts in his heart.

Changle Palace is the place where the emperor eats and lives, the interior is much brighter than Fushou Palace, the palace lights can be seen everywhere, and there are some palace maids walking between the corridors.

The Night Terror Hall handed over the sign to enter, and came to the outside of the Cheng'an Palace, looking left and right, but saw that there was no one inside.

It was not easy for the Night Terror Hall to enter directly, so he called at the door:

"Yuhu girl?"

Soon, in the dormitory on the left, there was a familiar soft and charming royal sister voice:

"The Holy One is not here, come in."

“……？”

Hearing these words, Night Terror Hall felt like the guards who entered the palace late at night to steal the concubine, shook his head and sighed and came to the outside of the dormitory to take a look.

The dormitory is very large, with a lot of calligraphy and paintings hanging on the outer wall, and a screen with a piano table and chess table; On the inside are dragon beds, tea banks, chaise longues and other things.

Because it is the residence of the Son of Heaven, there is a dragon burning under the floor, although it is cold and hunting outside, but the room is as warm as spring, and it is estimated that it is not cold to wear short sleeves.

At this time, there were several candlesticks lit in the room.

Yuhu, dressed in a bright red nightdress, is lying on his side on the chaise longue, holding a book in his hand; The skirt is still a summer skirt, very short, revealing smooth and slender legs, curled up on the chaise longue, and a pair of red palace shoes are placed on the ground.

Yuhu's height is almost the same as that of the big stupid, and the body is a little plump, wearing so little to go to the couch in winter, supplemented by the surrounding light and furnishings, the bones are full of a sense of charm, the temptation is amazing, but the aura is very strong, charming but not waves, glamorous but not demonic, just like a lady in the palace in a high position, summoning the head of the meeting in the middle of the night......

？

Night Terror Hall wanted to go in, but when he saw this scene, he paused again:

"Yuhu girl?"

"Hmm~"

The Empress of Great Wei turned the page of the book without blinking an eye:

"You don't have to take off your shoes, just come in."

The sword is on the temple, which is an incomparably noble honor.

But what Night Terror asked was obviously not about taking off his shoes, but Yuhu was dressed like this, purely to test the honest man, and he was afraid that it would not be appropriate for him to go in.

Seeing that Yuhu didn't mean to wear clothes, Night Terror thought about it and walked into the room, took a soft blanket from the desk, and covered her legs:

"It's cold in winter, don't catch a cold."

The Empress of Great Wei was lying in a warm and comfortable room, obviously not receiving this kindness, and lifted the blanket covering her waist, revealing her legs again:

"Aren't you too hot? Take off your clothes, don't finish a sentence and sweat. ”

Night Terror Hall wears a winter robe, although the martial arts are strong and not afraid of cold and heat, but it does not mean that you can't feel the heat and cold, staying in this room is equivalent to wearing a cotton jacket in summer, it is indeed not very comfortable, seeing this, I have to untie my winter coat, only wear a black single robe, sit down on the side of the tea table next to it, and do not squint:

"Hmm...... How are you doing? ”

The Empress of Great Wei got the muscles, bones and skin plus the bath map, although there are still two missing, but it is much more comfortable than in previous years. She closed the book, and instead supported her face with her hand, she looked at the Night Terrors:

"Much better. As I said last time, if you return safely, I will give you a chance to fulfill your two wishes, do you want anything? ”

I thought about it when I dreamed about it, but I really didn't dare to say it to my face, so I just said:

"It's just a joke, Miss Yuhu really wants to thank her, just look at it. Well...... By the way, this is your amulet jade pendant, intact, give. ”

The Empress of Great Wei glanced at the Pisces pendant handed out by the Night Terror, and did not get up, but pressed her skirt with her hand, raised her slender left leg, and clamped it with her foot.

？？

Night Terror Hall has seen the wind and waves of the water, but it is the first time he has seen such a burning scene, his expression was stunned, although he couldn't see anything according to his skirt, but he still quickly turned his gaze:

"Miss Yuhu, you ...... You are self-respecting. ”

The Empress of Great Wei took the jade pendant, relied on the amazing leg length, hung it on the ornament of the tea table, and then took her legs back:

"There are no palace maids here, what are you nervous about?"

Night Terror Hall was not nervous but couldn't figure out what Yuhu meant, he thought for a while and said:

"Miss Yuhu wants to reward me with something, just say it directly, I can promise it, and consider it if I can't agree. But I promise something with my body......"

The Empress of Great Wei hooked the corners of her mouth: "What you think is quite beautiful." I am a palace person, you want me to make a personal promise, and I will settle King Jing first. ”

“……？”

Night Terror Hall was speechless for a moment, and the meaning of his eyes was probably - if you are not ready to make a promise, what are you doing with this posture with your legs raised? If there is a teacher, there must be an apprentice, and the light is not responsible, right?

The Empress of Great Wei was a little more serious and said:

"You have made countless meritorious contributions this time, and I will help you ask for a reward. The imperial court will hold a ceremony in the near future, canonizing you as the Duke of Wu'an of the current dynasty, and giving the land of a county in Zezhou as a fiefdom, and the hereditary replacement will live with the country; You deserve this reward, but you can't refuse it, otherwise other loyal ministers and righteous people will be chilled when they see that you have repeatedly performed miraculous feats, but you have not had any decent gifts. ”

Night Terror Hall didn't have any concept of knighthood or anything, but he also knew what the weight of a fief was a prince, and he was basically a smaller prince and king, he thought about it and said:

"The court rewards and punishes according to the law, so naturally I don't say anything. But I'm just a ranger, let me go to Zezhou to manage a county, I'm afraid it's ......"

"The territory is still under the control of the county, you are only responsible for collecting taxes and enjoying the glory and wealth, if you don't want to go to the fiefdom to become the emperor of the land, you can also settle your home in the capital."

Seeing that there was no difference between the night terror hall and now, just more income, naturally he didn't say anything anymore, and nodded:

"This reward is already very great, and if you ask for anything else, you will be pampered and proud, or you will want something like this......"

The Empress of Great Wei raised her hand slightly: "I have always said that there are no two, promising two is two, this is one, and there is one that you can boldly mention, and if you can agree, you will not refuse." ”

Seeing that Hu Niuniu was so arrogant, Night Terror Hall hesitated for a moment, but still asked tentatively:

"Hmm...... This time I went out, and I had a lot of contact with the Queen Mother. The queen mother lived in the deep palace for a long time at a young age, and she was a poor person, I heard that the palace people in the period of the first emperor had children who followed their children to the domain, and no children returned to their hometowns to remarry. Queen Mother ......"

The Empress of Great Wei felt that the Night Terror Hall was really warm-hearted, and her eyes were a little helpless:

"The Queen Mother has nothing to do in the capital, and it doesn't seem to be important, but her maiden family is the Qin family in Jiangzhou, the head of the southeastern scholar clan, and the main contributor to supporting the succession of the saint; The Queen Mother has a lot of actual power, as long as she wants, she can unite to abolish the Son of Heaven, but she did not interfere in the government like the Empress Dowager Yan.

"She was respected as the queen mother in the palace, which shows that the imperial court attaches great importance to the southeast Shi clan, if she is released to the township, it is equivalent to abolishing the right of the southeast Shi clan to intervene in the abolition of the imperial power, no matter what reason is used, the Qin family and others will wonder if the court is afraid of them, and they want to unload the mill and kill the donkey, this suspicion together, the southeast may be chaotic."

Night Terror Hall knew that there was little hope, and sighed lightly: "It means that the Queen Mother has to stay in the palace for the rest of her life?" ”

The Empress of Great Wei is not without pity, but the situation is like this, she shook her head and said:

"The situation is mixed, so we need to walk on thin ice and weigh left and right; If you can be like Taizu, monopolize power and no one dares to oppose it, why care about what the people below think? Even if the Queen Mother is allowed to remarry openly, it is also a beautiful talk in the history books, and no one dares to say more.

"But we'll have to wait a few years, huh...... If you can cripple Beiliang and let Great Wei have no external troubles, not to mention letting the Queen Mother return to her hometown, even if you want to marry the Queen Mother, you can discuss it. ”

“？！”

Night Terror Hall sat up a little straighter, thinking that this dowry was a bit exaggerated, and only after defeating Beiliang could he marry a hand warmer and go home, and he would not be able to do it in half a lifetime?

But what Hu Niuniu said is also that if you want the Queen Mother to remarry, you must at least suppress the internal and external troubles first, otherwise you will be affected by the whole body, and no one can be the master.

Night Terror pondered for a moment and nodded slightly:

"The Queen Mother lives in the deep palace, it's really pitiful, if I can do my best, I will definitely fight for it......"

The Empress of Great Wei was not embarrassed by the night terror, and slightly hooked her hand to help hand over the teacup:

"There are so many talented people in Dawei, how can you let you pacify Beiliang single-handedly. You devote yourself to practicing martial arts, and you can take over the signboard of 'No. 1 in the world' from Fengguancheng, and your ability and status are enough to make the saint sit back and relax, and when the time comes, it will only be a matter of one sentence to let the queen mother out of the palace. It would be even better if you could find Qi Minglongtu by the way......"

Night Terror Hall felt that these were too far away, so he just shook his head and smiled, came to the chaise longue with a teacup, handed it to Yuhu, and looked at the book next to him at the same time:

"What is this? Reading a poetry book? ”

The Empress of Great Wei sat up slightly, picked up the teacup and took a sip:

"In a few days, the envoys of the Northern Liang will come over, bringing a lot of young talents, so that they can involve all aspects, and the most high-profile of them is the civil and military. You're only eighteen or nineteen, why don't you learn martial arts with your peers in Beiliang? ”

？？

It was inconvenient for the night terror hall to stand, so he sat on the carpet, and blinked when he heard this:

"Are you sure? Isn't it too cruel to learn and communicate? ”

The Empress of Great Wei smiled: "Just kidding, Beiliang is not stupid, you are in the capital, how can they be embarrassed, they will only say 'everything is inferior, only reading is high', looking for trouble in qin, chess, calligraphy and painting." The courtiers have praised you recently, and many of them are because of this matter, you don't need to speak when you go to the capital, and the people of Beiliang are one head shorter than Dawei. ”

"yes......"

The Empress of Great Wei turned over, lay on the chaise longue, supported her upper body with her elbows, and placed a collection of poems in front of her, reading it with Night Terror:

"The foreign envoy team is almost here, and recently, Guozijian and the major academies are selecting talented young people to receive the envoys. This matter is about the face of Dawei, the courtiers are looking for candidates, you also know some poetry and songs, help me staff officers. ”

"Uh......"

Night Terror Hall chats about chivalrous tears, and it is true that he can talk at length for half a night, but the poetry and songs of the Eight Classics are really not attained, and he only remembers some incomplete.

However, Hu Niuniu's literary style, he has seen it, and he is not much taller than him, so he came to him at the moment and looked carefully:

"It all looks good, huh...... Hmmm......"

Well, I didn't hold back a sentence for a long time, mainly because it was not good to talk nonsense.

The talents who can send their works to the Cheng'an Palace are analogous to the warriors of the rivers and lakes, that is, the eight seedlings who are one in a million.

A martial artist in the Night Terror Hall, if he only relies on his personal preferences, saying that this is not good, then the negative impression left on Hu Niuniu, then the scholar's hard work of studying for ten years may be in vain.

For this reason, Night Terror Hall looked at it for a while, and found that it was beyond his ability, or said:

"This matter should be handed over to King Jing and Xuanji Zhenren, I think everything is powerful, it's really hard to comment on it."

Seeing this, the Empress of Great Wei naturally did not embarrass the night terror, and looked at the cheeks of the night terror hall in a blink of an eye:

"The bones are heavy, the gods are cold, the temple is also crazy, the heroes are also gentle, huh...... The two countries have diplomatic relations, and the appearance of the courtiers is also the most important thing, so when the foreign envoy comes over, you and the people from the Ministry of Rites will go to receive them and open their eyes, how about it? ”

Night Terror touched his cheeks: "I just beat King Zuoxian, Beiliang hates me to the core, is it too arrogant to go to receive the envoys now?" ”

"Alas, the diplomatic relations between the two countries pay attention to the etiquette on the table, and they both want to ride on each other's heads in their hearts. If you are not strong, the other party will inevitably ride on the head and scatter the wild, and the grievances are the saints and hundreds of millions of people in the Great Wei, so don't take care of the face of the Beiliang people, it is best to let them bite the back molars, and you have to accompany the smiling face......"

When the Empress of Great Wei said this, she seemed to be in a good mood, and she lifted her bare feet and swayed in the air.

Originally, this slightly playful posture was nothing, but the Empress of Dawei was wearing a very short light nightdress, and she could only barely cover the roots of her legs when she was lying on her stomach.

Night Terror Hall subconsciously glanced at it, looking at the silhouette of the moon from the side, naturally he couldn't see the white jade tiger, but he didn't see any fabric, and there seemed to be a vacuum under the skirt......

？

Night Terror wanted to do nothing but find out, but it was a little difficult to raise his hand and pull up the blanket:

"This skirt is too short, Miss Yuhu will still have to wear pants in the future......"

The Empress of Dawei blinked her eyes while lying on the chaise longue, looked back, and pulled up the side of the nightdress generously, revealing the slender knots in the waist and crotch:

"What are you thinking? I'm wearing pants. ”

？？

Night Terror was stunned for a moment, and then looked carefully, but Yuhu pulled down his skirt again and didn't let him succeed.

Night Terror opened her mouth, and she only felt that Fan Jiuniang was getting more and more outrageous, and the T-shaped pants could be made, the key was that Hu Niuniu still dared to wear it, and dared to pull it up for him to see......

This is also too much......

When the Empress of Great Wei saw that she had blinded the night terrors, she no longer teased him, and waved her hand:

"Alright, let's go back. Since you want to receive the envoys, the reward must be before the envoys come, otherwise your status is a little lower, I will prepare and do this as soon as possible. ”

Night Terror didn't know what to say, and after bowing slightly, he got up and put on his robe, probably because he couldn't get angry, and covered Yuhu with a blanket before turning around and leaving......
