Chapter 35: The Imperial City

The sun sets in the west, the glow shines between the gorgeous palaces, and the swings with ribbons tied under the ginkgo trees sway in the glow.

The Queen Mother was dressed in a dark red phoenix skirt, holding the swing rope with both hands, and kept looking at the top of the palace wall, because she hadn't seen the night terror hall for several days, and there was a resentment between her eyebrows.

Ruby stood behind her, slowly pushing the swing, and said softly:

"I heard from the people in the palace that the night boy has returned, and he should come over later. The old lady is also on the way, according to the itinerary, she has already arrived in Zezhou, and it won't be long before she can be reunited......"

When the Queen Mother heard this, she retracted her mind and looked back and asked:

"What are my father and mother doing in the capital?"

"It is said to celebrate the unification of the northern Xinjiang and come to meet the saints."

“……”

The Queen Mother felt that this possibility was not high, after all, it was necessary to completely subdue the northern Xinjiang and wipe out all the resistance forces, not to mention that it would be a year later, and the father and mother would come over now, probably because Yuhu was preparing for the wedding, and sent a letter in advance to let the father and mother come over to attend her wedding.

The queen mother actually hasn't told her family about making friends with the night terrors, and what she wants most in her heart is to live like this, and she doesn't ask for any fame.

But it is obviously impossible for Night Terror Hall to agree, Yuhu and Liren will not wronged her, and if they enter the door together at that time, they will definitely let her wear a hijab.

It stands to reason that if she wants to get married, she should first leave the palace and return to her hometown, and then remarry to Night Terror.

But in the palace, she has been with Yuhu and separated from people for ten years, and there is no difference between each other and relatives, and she has really removed the identity of the queen mother, she has become an ordinary Jiangzhou lady, and she has no relationship with the emperor's family, and she can no longer get along with Yuhu as the queen mother.

And because of the relationship between "The Secret History of Cleopatra", she is actually reluctant to give up the special identity of the queen mother, anyway, she wants to marry and want to be the queen mother, which is quite tangled.

After swaying as usual for a long time, the Queen Mother didn't notice a figure on the wall, but her nose twitched, and then she turned her eyes to look left and right:

"Hongyu, did you let the dining room make roast chicken?"

Hongyu was stunned: "No?" Want to eat roast chicken for dinner? ”

The Queen Mother was a little puzzled, but she immediately realized something, and came up from the swing:

"Hongyu, you go to the Chen'an Hall to see if the Night Terror Hall has come."

"Oh good."

Hearing this, Hongyu hurriedly ran down.

The Queen Mother waited for Hongyu to leave, then tidied up her clothes, walked into the dormitory in disbelief, and looked into her room, only to look up and find that there was an unfolded oil-paper bag on the small round table, which was hot roast chicken, and there was a small wine jug next to it.

"Huh?"

The Queen Mother's eyes showed surprise, and when she walked into the house, she just wanted to look back and forth, but she found that her eyes were covered from behind, and her footsteps immediately stopped:

"Shocked?"

Night Terror Hall stood behind his back with one hand covering his eyes, his face was full of smiles, and he leaned into his ear and said:

"It's not okay to take the bait so easily, what if you meet a bad guy?"

The Queen Mother was held like this, her face turned red at that time, and she didn't put her hand away, but said:

"This is the Imperial City, apart from you, what other bad guy can sneak here."

Night Terror thought about it, and pouted on his slippery face, before he let go of his eyes, and turned to hug his waist from behind, as if hugging a girl, came to the table and sat down, and let Huaiyan sit on his lap:

"I just saw that Niangniang was distracted, thinking about me?"

The Queen Mother must have been thinking about the Night Terror Hall, but when the Night Terror Hall asked so, how could she nod stupidly, and just snorted softly:

"Who thinks you're worrying about the wedding. Well...... You and Yuhu get married, should this palace sit in the position of the two elders of the parents, or ......"

Night Terror Hall hugged the petite and delicate Huaiyan, and put his hand into his arms to warm up:

"In terms of identity, you are the queen mother, Yuhu and Liren are princesses, that is, mother-in-law...... Woo~"

When the Queen Mother heard the name of this shameful person, she hurriedly covered her mouth in the night terror:

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm not as big as Yuhu, and I'm not a pro...... Alas, you let me sit on a chair and worship you, then worship, I can't help it anyway......"

Seeing that Huaiyan was a little aggrieved, Night Terror Hall smiled and coaxed:

"Just kidding, when you get married, you have to worship the high church, and it is my father and mother who worship. Both of my fathers are gone, so it's good to worship heaven and earth. When the time comes, you will also wear a hijab, and we will worship together,"

The Queen Mother leaned on her arms and hesitated slightly:

"This palace is the queen mother, isn't it a bit ...... to worship together?"

Night Terror Hall said to this: "Anyway, no one knows about the hijab, and in the future, we will all become immortals and go outside, regardless of these messy rules." But if you want to make it public, I can also talk to Yuhu and go through the process of returning home, anyway, it won't be a few days to come and go......"

The Queen Mother doesn't know if she was influenced by "The Secret History of Cleopatra", but she still likes the feeling of this underground love affair secretly, and she really made the relationship clear, but what is missing, think about it or say:

"That's it, Bengong and Empress Dowager Yan live in the same house, and they also went to the grave of Empress Dowager Yan to worship, and it's not a big deal to mess around like her......"

When Night Terror Hall heard Empress Dowager Yan, she naturally remembered the secret history of Empress Yan, and then remembered the details inside, her expression was a little serious, and she looked down at Huai Yan:

"By the way, Yanshan intercepts the clouds, does Niangniang learn it?"

“?”

When the Queen Mother heard this, her expression naturally became dazed:

"Haven't you punished Hongu? What else does Hongu study? ”

Night Terror felt that this was reasonable and outrageous, he opened his mouth and said seriously:

"I punished Niangniang to let Niangniang study hard, not to say that you don't have to learn if you are punished. Didn't practice at all? ”

The Queen Mother thought that this matter was over, and when she saw that the Night Terror Hall came to the assessment again, her eyes naturally became aggrieved:

"You didn't make it clear, how did Bengu know...... So what now? “

Night Terror coughed lightly, sat upright on the stool, and put on a stern appearance:

"Practicing martial arts is not child's play, if you know your mistakes, you have to change them, and you have to give you a long memory. According to what we said before, another penalty. ”

"Huh?"

The Queen Mother pursed her lips, obviously begging for mercy, but Night Terror looked serious, obviously did not agree, she hesitated, and could only stand up slowly and came to the cabinet:

"If you don't teach me, how can Bengong learn it? From today on, you teach this palace every day, and the next time you take the assessment, I will admit the punishment, if you don't teach, I won't admit it......"

Night Terror Hall nodded with a smile: "That's nature, I will teach you every day in the future, but it's not just as simple as learning to cut clouds, all kung fu must be learned, and we have to be immortals together in the future, if you can't get out, it's going to be troublesome." ”

"Hmph~"

As she spoke, the Queen Mother took out a sandalwood locket from the cabinet.

The box contained all kinds of torture tools on her "The Secret History of Cleopatra" and "Tears of a Heroine", and she was afraid that the night terror hall would see all the greetings, and she secretly hid it, but she just took out the small bell from it.

After bringing the torture tools, the Queen Mother took a rope and wanted to go behind the screen to undress.

Seeing this, Night Terror beckoned: "I'll just come to serve, how can I wear my own clothes." ”

The Queen Mother had no choice, so she obediently walked up to her and handed the things to the Night Terrors.

Night Terror raised his hand to pull off Feng Qun's belt, and the silky fabric slid down the snow's shoulders and landed on the carpet.

The Queen Mother's figure is about the same as Sanniang, but because of her identity, she wears a more conservative one, just embroidered with a phoenix's belly pocket, and dark red thin pants, and a ring belt on her legs, with a dagger 'phoenix gall' inserted on it.

Night Terror raised her hand and wanted to pull down the thin pants, but the Queen Mother hurriedly blocked it:

"You can't wear pants either?"

"Hmm."

“……”

The Queen Mother pursed her lips, but she had to let go of her hand and let the night terrors be presumptuous.

窸窸窣窣~

Soon, the dark red thin pants also fell on the carpet, and the plump body of Bairu mutton fat jade was completely presented in front of him.

The Queen Mother was a little ashamed, and she blocked it with her hand:

"It's a little cold, you hurry up."

"Okay."

Night Terror Hall untied Caifeng's little clothes, and then put the small bell made of pure gold in the place where it should be, Huai Yan suddenly shook slightly, and then blocked it from letting him see it.

"Alright, let's get started, a hundred jumps."

"Alas~"

The Queen Mother's face turned red, she picked up the rope and grabbed it with both hands, stepped on the carpet barefoot, and jumped up lightly in front of the night terrors.

Whew~

Jingle bell~

In an instant, the boudoir was filled with stormy waves, and boundless spring colors filled the entire dormitory.

Although Night Terror Hall maintained a cold and extraordinary look, his eyes involuntarily moved up and down with the bumps, and he also praised absentmindedly:

"Yes, my mother's skills have improved."

Jingle jingle bell~

The Queen Mother almost died of shame, but fortunately, there were no outsiders in the house, much less pressure than Qinghe's last public jump, and she was very happy to see the night terror, and she crossed her hands or raised her legs, and jumped up the flower rope, her movements were very skillful, and even showed the aura of a cardamom girl.

The cold and extraordinary momentum of the Night Terror Hall couldn't be stabilized, and his mouth almost laughed to the root of his ears, and he didn't know how long he admired it back and forth, and the Queen Mother hadn't finished jumping, and suddenly there were footsteps outside:

Pedal Pedal Pedal ~

Night Terror Hall may be a little distracted, and when he hears the footsteps, he secretly says that something is wrong, and hurriedly beckons.

Seeing this, the Queen Mother hurriedly squatted down and wanted to get dressed, but when she found that it was too late, she shrank into the arms of the Night Terror Hall again, and said urgently:

"Ruby, you wait!"

"Huh?"

Outside the palace, Hongyu heard the sound of the bell and trotted in confusion, and when she saw the Queen Mother stopping, she stopped where she was, and asked suspiciously:

"Niangniang, are you learning from Fairy Lu? How can there be a bell sound? ”

The Queen Mother is learning to be a demon in Shui'er, and the current dress of this shameful person, how embarrassed to be seen by Hongyu, hurriedly said:

"Yes, I'm asking God, stay away, don't scare the gods away."

Hongyu is not a stupid girl, she guessed that something was wrong with a slight movement of her eyes, and nodded very understandingly at the moment:

"Oh. I went to see it just now, but the night boy hasn't entered the palace yet. ”

After saying that, he ran down quickly.

The Queen Mother leaned in her arms, and after making sure that Hongyu was far away, she breathed a sigh of relief, and raised her hand to hammer the chest of the Night Terror Hall with some chagrin:

"You're really, why didn't you say hello in advance?"

Night Terror Hall naturally held Tuan'er in his hand, and said apologetically:

"I was distracted, I didn't notice. Okay, the punishment has been completed, and you must study carefully in the future, otherwise you will have to double it next time and jump with the fox's tail. ”

The Queen Mother snorted lightly, looked at the handsome cheeks that were close at hand, stepped forward and held her lips, kissed her seriously, and then said:

"Okay, you go to Changle Palace first, the palace will go later, but it's okay if you don't go."

Night Terror Hall smiled: "Leave people and enter the palace, let's get together later, I'll help you get dressed." ”

The Queen Mother saw that the Night Terror Hall was still touching, but she didn't think that the Night Terror Hall would honestly help to wear it, so she raised her hand to give a bear hug and helped wash her face:

"Enough now, right? Go for it. ”

Night Terror felt that it was not enough, hugged his lips together, and patted it on the moon again, making a pleasant crisp sound, and when he was bullying him, he suddenly realized that it was not right.

Looking back, I found that above the palace pavilion in the distance, there was a figure in a gorgeous red dress, looking at this side from afar, it should be a person who came with Hongyu, and was looking at him with interest.

The Queen Mother looked at her eyes and found that her eldest daughter's face was flushed, and she quietly pinched the night terror, and then picked up the skirt with her waist and got into the curtain.

The night terror hall was caught, and he was also a little embarrassed, so he hurriedly tidied up his clothes and came to the window:

"I was about to go to you, but I didn't expect you to come first......"

The empress stood on the roof and saw that the queen mother was hiding, so she landed on her toes under the ginkgo tree outside the window:

"Look at your selfless posture, wait for you to come and see me, can't you wait an hour? How is it, have you seen your confidante over? ”

The Night Terror Hall climbed out of the window and landed in front of him:

"Yunli should be patrolling the streets, Shui Er Bai Jin doesn't know where to run, but he didn't find it."

"Shizun was here with me at noon, and I heard that you ran away when you came back, so I should have gone back to the new house to find you, and I staggered with you. As for Xue Baijin, he should have been afraid to come from stage fright and hid. I know that you haven't seen you yet, so you will have a celebration banquet tomorrow night, and when you come back, you should meet everyone as soon as possible, so as not to chill the girl. ”

Night Terror Hall shook his head and smiled: "Actually, it's nothing to have a celebration banquet, it's lively together." ”

"You just came back, you have to prepare a meal and clean up the Taihua Palace, how can it be so fast. And Xue Baijin definitely didn't dare to come, so I have to give you time to persuade her. ”

The empress said this, and turned her eyes to the window behind her:

"Queen Mother, do you want to go over and sit together?"

In the dormitory, the Queen Mother was embarrassed to see people, but said in a muffled voice:

"This palace changes clothes, you guys go first."

Seeing this, the empress didn't say much, turned around and walked onto the verandah.

Night Terror Hall walked beside him, and saw that Yuhu had been looking at the buildings of the imperial city while walking, and asked:

"What are you looking at?"

The Empress blinked, and after a moment of silence, she hugged Night Terror's arm:

"Do you know how many years this imperial city has been built?"

Night Terror Hall has been in Yun'an for so long, and he is familiar with the secret history of Cleopatra, so he still knows about these:

"It's been 1,200 years, and it's been renovated a few times, but the pattern hasn't changed."

The empress bowed her head slightly, and gestured to the ginkgo tree behind her:

"This tree was planted by Wu Taizu's beloved concubine, and at that time it happened that the world was unified and completely stable, but unfortunately it was not too young, and the world was divided into three again.

"In the past 1,200 years, there have been no less than 100 emperors and emperors in the world, and dynasties have changed several times, and the flames of war have never been extinguished until today.

"For 1,200 years, all emperors have hoped to become the 'Emperor of the Ages' who reunites the world, and the people have also hoped for an Emperor of the Ages, but unfortunately it has never appeared.

"And now that I haven't made an inch, just sleeping with you, I have slept out of the great achievements of this 'Emperor of the Ages', I feel quite child's play, with this merit, my heart is a little unsteady."

Night Terror Hall heard the end, a little funny:

"What is this saying, as an emperor, it doesn't matter whether your personal ability is strong or weak, but you will use people for important things. If you hadn't looked up to me from the very beginning, didn't treat me as a friend by the emperor, and tried every way to reward me, would I be where I am today? If you don't think you have much credit, you can think about it from another perspective, if the emperor of Great Wei was the eldest son of the emperor, what would be the scene now. ”

The empress blinked her eyes and deduced seriously:

"The eldest son of the emperor is suspicious, and he may value your talent at first, but when your identity as an orphan in the West Sea is revealed, he will definitely hunt you down.

"You can't gain a foothold in Great Wei, so you can only go to the West Sea to seek refuge, re-establish the royal court, set up Qinghe as the princess to restore the country, and then lead the troops to fight the Northern and Southern Dynasties. Although in this way, it will be many years later to unify the world, but with your ability, you should still be able to do it in the end, and the Dongfang clan will definitely be gone by then, and I and the Liren, as well as the queen mother, should be taken captive by you into the harem and wantonly bullied......"

Night Terror said helplessly: "Am I that kind of person? ”

The empress gestured to the thief's hand on her buttocks: "As a courtier now, you are doing this kind of crime, if you really take us back, can you be more polite than now?" ”

"Alas~ I love it, and it has nothing to do with bullying."

The empress snorted softly with her arms crossed, and after a little consideration, she said:

"This world is considered to be fought by you, and now no one in the whole world is not afraid of you, if you want to be the emperor, you only need one sentence, I can give you the throne Zen ......"

"Huh!"

Night Terror hurriedly raised his hand: "You don't know my character yet, being a courtier is a fierce general who can be handled with beauty." When he is an emperor, he is a faint monarch who is obsessed with beauty and ignores the government, and it is estimated that he can rank among the top few in the history books. It's not that I don't want to share your worries, it's that I'm from the rivers and lakes, and I'm really not interested in this, and I want to go to the sky again, huh...... Be an immortal emperor or something.

"I know you're tired of it, let's work hard in the future and have a baby, so that Xihai and Dawei will be completely integrated, and no one will have an opinion on inheriting the unification. After handing over the mundane things to the descendants, let's go to the back of the mountain together, your talent is not low, and Bai Jin and Shui'er, we can start a sect, it's called ......"

"Hehuan Sect?"

"Huh?"

Night Terror Hall blinked, and wanted to veto this not very serious name, but there were only him and his daughter-in-law in the sect, and it was impossible for outsiders to come in, and she had to be a young and beautiful female fairy when she came in, and what she did all day long was also the joy of fish and water, and there was really no problem with calling it Hehuan Sect.

Seeing that the night terror hall couldn't find a rebuttal, the empress couldn't help laughing:

"Then you will be the ancestor of Hehuan in the future, and it sounds like a color embryo."

"Alas~"

Night Terror Hall felt that this title was not as good as Ning Er getting the 'Flying Heaven Lang', and when he had nothing to say, he raised his hand and hugged Yuhu's legs and hugged him horizontally:

"Dare to ridicule Xianggong, today I will let you see the power of Hehuan Ancestor."

In the harem, there are no men, although there are a few palace maids, but the empress is obviously not afraid of being bumped into her and her lover stealing fun, and she also hooked the neck of the night terror hall at the moment:

"Now that things are busy, it's rare to stop, don't you have a poem to help the fun?"

Night Terror thought for a moment and asked rhetorically:

"What reward for me?"

The empress snorted lightly, but she didn't refuse, and took out a jade radish from her sleeve, which was engraved with 'Longtan Tiger's Den':

"Huh?"

Night Terror Hall was slightly stunned when he saw Shui'er's handwriting, and then his pace sped up a little:

"Shui Er is really good at it, huh...... The tiger's lair Longtan road is not passed, and the mountains are deep and the people are quiet. Who knows that there is no dust here, only the sound of pine and the evening breeze ......"

"Heh~ I can write limerick poems, and I'm getting more and more like a gentleman."

"Okay?"

"OK~"

"Hehe......"

Night Terror Hall was full of smiles, and he didn't be verbose at the moment, he came to Changle Palace with Yuhu in his arms, and wanted to go to Chen'an Palace, but Yuhu let him go to Canyang Pool.

Knowing that Night Terror Hall was coming back today, Yuhu had obviously prepared, and a wine and fruit plate had been placed in the Canyang Pond to change clothes, but no one disturbed him; The misty pool still has a faint fragrance, not to mention soaking in, just smelling it feels refreshing.

Night Terror Hall entered it, closed the door with his feet, and without waiting for Yuhu to speak, he put her on the chaise longue, and then hooked her legs and pressed them against her chest, causing the moon to show a perfect arc The red dress also slid down, revealing a large area of white skin and the key point blocked by the small red cloth.

The empress was slightly stunned, and she wanted to struggle when she saw this:

"What do you do?"

"What else can I do, take the reward."

Night Terror pressed Yuhu, raised his hand and patted it on the snow-white full moon, and then made a gesture to install the jade radish.

The empress was planning to reward the Night Terrors, but she didn't mean to be in such a hurry, and wanted to pull her skirt to cover it:

"I'm going to leave the Queen Mother later, I'm going to come over, ...... next time"

"Then it's not as soon as possible."

Night Terror Hall made a non-negotiable appearance, and as soon as his fingers pulled the bow and the small cloth was pulled away, revealing a white jade tiger.

"You ......"

Yuhu, as a dignified empress, was unprepared for being pressed by a man on the chaise longue and stuffed with jade radish, where could he stand it, and hurriedly begged for mercy:

"Reward is reward, you at least let me get used to it, and I ...... if I enter the house"

The night terror hall was just scared, and when he saw that Yuhu confessed, he put away his posture of punishment and picked his chin:

"Huh?"

The empress hurriedly put her legs down, because the Night Terror Hall had indeed done a lot for her and Da Wei, and at this time it could be said that she was very spoiled, so she pulled the Night Terror Hall over and hooked her neck, and began to serve seriously, and slowly moved from the chaise longue to the Canyang Pool.

When the night terror hall came, he had already agreed to enter the palace with Ben Ben to gather, and not long after he spoke, there was a sound of footsteps outside the palace gate.

Night Terror Hall knew that Big Ben was coming, so he let go first, made a gesture to Yuhu, and then dived into the water.

The empress was very cooperative, and quickly leaned against the edge of the bath, making the appearance of pouring herself a drink.

Squeak~

Soon, the gate of Chanyang Pool opened and closed quickly.

Dongfang Liren, who changed into regular clothes, walked in from the outside and found that there was only one sister in the empty bath, and he couldn't help but wonder:

"Where's the Night Terror?"

"Where is the Queen Mother, I guess I will come in a while."

"Oh......."

Dongfang Liren naturally didn't have any doubts about his sister's words, came to the edge of the misty bath, unbuttoned his skirt, and the proud figure of the ups and downs suddenly appeared on the edge of the bath.

Crash~

Dongfang Liren tested the temperature of the water on his toes, and at the same time asked:

"We'll be here later......"

The empress held back a smile in her heart, but she still responded seriously:

"It depends on the situation, the Night Terror Hall hasn't seen Xue Baijin and Yunli yet, and the master hasn't met each other, so I have to go out, maybe I just say hello and leave."

Dongfang bowed slightly, and felt a little pity in his heart, after making sure that the water temperature was suitable, he raised his hand and plunged directly into the pool.

Thump~

Because it was hot water, Dongfang naturally didn't open his eyes after entering the water, and was ready to swim forward and float again.

But as soon as she swam forward only two steps, she suddenly found that she had hit someone, and the smooth touch did not look like her sister at all.

Dongfang was stunned for a moment, quickly opened his eyes, and saw through the light on the water surface that there was a handsome man directly below, who was in a close position, looking at her with a smile.

"Gollum ......?!"

There was a splash in the pool, and two figures rolled in it, looking like Big Dumb was beating and scaring her at night; But soon it came out of the pool again:

"You little thief...... Woo~"

The empress raised her eyes and saw that the upper half of her body was floating on the water, her face was red and twisted, and she covered her lips with a sense of shame and indignation.

The empress wanted to pick up her glass and watch the play, but she immediately found that her ankle was also pulled down and she slipped into the water, and then an indescribable touch came to her heart, making her face red, and cleaning up the lawless night terrors together in the water.

Boom~

There was a sound of water splashing in the Canyang Pool, and from time to time there were two laughs and shameful reprimands.

When she was having fun, the Queen Mother, who had changed her clothes, quietly walked in from outside the door, and found that there were white flowers in the bath, and the voices of the two sisters came and went, and she couldn't help but feel ashamed:

"Hey~ It started before it got dark, and I wasn't afraid of choking on the water......"

Dongfang Liren was tossed by the night terrors, and there was no way to fight back, when he saw the reinforcements coming, he swam to him and directly pulled the Queen Mother, who was still wearing a skirt, into the water:

"It's just in time, Queen Mother, you can clean him up."

"Huh? I? ”

The Queen Mother was inexplicable, but she didn't have a chance to speak, so she was directly pushed into the arms of the Night Terror.

Night Terror Hall was afraid that Huai Yan would really choke on the water, so he didn't toss underwater, and leaned against the edge of the bath:

"Yuhu has prepared a gift for me......"

"Night Terror!"

Although the empress has been on the top for a long time, she is calm and unhurried, and her personality is still a little following the master, but she has not reached the point where she can let go at any time.

Dongfang Liren saw the jade radish, but his eyes lit up:

"Show me ......"

"Oh, just look at it, what do you do in the middle of the palace...... Hey~ Return Longtan Tiger's Den ......"

"Hahaha......"

"Leave people, you laugh again!"

"Ahem~ It's very good-looking, let's try ......"

"Alas......"

……

In the sound of laughter and splashing, the sky outside the window gradually darkened, although it was winter, the sun pool was full of spring......
