"Your Majesty." Xiao Chenzi wrote down these things, and when he returned, he wrote an edict on his behalf and sent it to those foreign ministers.

This year's harvest is not easy to lighten, and the tax can be regarded as being lightened by the people, so that they can have a happy winter.

"It's been a long time since I've been to see the Queen Mother, how is the Queen Mother now?" Since Xiao Chengze came back, he has never seen the Queen Mother, it is said that there is no major problem in his body, and he has been in the palace to raise his spirits, but who knows what is going on with him, it is because he is exhausted and afraid that the rebellion will have something to do with Song Yueran, so he has been avoiding them and is unwilling to come out to meet people.

"The Queen Mother used to be fine, she ate three meals a day as usual, she didn't ask for a pulse, and she said she didn't have any illness when she came back."

Xiao Chenzi replied.

Xiao Chenzi had already been sent by Xiao Chengze's knowledge to visit the Queen Mother when he first came back, so as not to give birth to any thoughts that the Queen Mother should not have, the Queen Mother for so many years, although it can be said that it is smooth sailing in the harem, there is no plan, but after all, his family wants more interests, it will inevitably affect him, you must know that if he really chooses the family among the two, then it is normal for you to say that the rebellion is fueled by him.

The Queen Mother is not Xiao Chengze's biological mother, and now the two of them are now having some estrangement, no one believes in anyone, the two of them are guarding against each other, and they don't even want to see each other now, for fear of any contradictions?

After some investigation, Xiao Chenzi can also determine that Xiao Chengtian's rebellion has nothing to do with the Queen Mother, the most important thing about his rebellion is related to the fourth princess and the Yang family, as for the rest of the people, most of them are in the nature of the wall grass, and when they saw Xiao Chengtian's victory, they fell to him with three stools.

The Queen Mother has not received any benefits, since Xiao Chengtian entered the palace, she has been imprisoned in the palace, and she is frightened every day, but her food, clothing, and housing can be according to the original specifications.

"It's okay if there's nothing sick. Otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to send it away. ”

Xiao Chengze knew that the Queen Mother didn't do anything to be sorry for him, but the Queen Mother still had a thorn in his throat after all, so he had to find a way to get this thorn out, whether it made him feel pain and discomfort or not.

Xiao Chengze didn't want to treat him too much after all, at most he wanted to drive him out of the palace, there was a Qinglong Temple in the palace that was dedicated to the ancestors, the decoration of the Qinglong Temple was very luxurious, and the emperor would sometimes go over to worship.

Xiao Chengze thought about getting the Queen Mother there, which was not a place of grievance, but it was in the name of praying for the country, in fact, it was to let him enjoy his old age in Qinglong Temple.

In the end, the two of them also have some friendship, although the concubine also planned some thoughts when she raised her, but she has been good to him for so many years, and has fulfilled her basic responsibilities as an adoptive mother, and now she is old, don't let him stay in the palace, and worry about how much poison he will put in if he is afraid every day, and live a retired life.

"I need to tell Lord Zhou about this matter." Lord Zhou, now he handles everything from the official to the prime minister and the general of the court. Xiao Chengze is also very satisfied with this. His father-in-law can now be said to assist him wholeheartedly, and he doesn't have to worry about any extraneous branches, after all, his brother-in-law can't support the wall with mud, and Master Zhou is already old. If he wants to carry forward his family now, he must help himself wholeheartedly, and he looks forward to Zhou Yunyi being able to bring a prince.

Xiao Chengze also thinks so, he hopes that he can have a child with Zhou Yunyi, this is his long-cherished wish, you must know that the two of them may not be very willing at the beginning, but by now, the two have been in the same mind, but Zhou Yunyi's stomach has not moved.

Xiao Chengze didn't want to urge it, but the turmoil in the court has just stabilized, and the people in the world are not doing well, so now he really needs a festive thing to happen. The queen gave birth to a child. Isn't this the most festive thing in the world?

Xiao Chengze thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to say what he thought.

Zhou Yunyi is still so young now, it is estimated that she will feel distressed about having children, after all, as he said, in real life, most women will choose to marry later and have children later, and some will even start to think about finding a partner until they are in their 30s. I didn't think about having a baby until I was in my 30s and 40s.

Xiao Chengze pinched his fingers, if Zhou Yunyi really didn't think about having a child until he was thirty or forty years old, wouldn't he have to wait for another ten or 20 years.

Xiao Chengze felt that it was a bit late, after all, when they had another child when they were thirty or forty years old, there was not much time to be able to accompany the child, the average life expectancy of ancient people was more than 60 years old, and if you want to live to 70, it is already considered an advanced age, and you must know that there are very few people who live to be 90 and 100 years old.

Even if Xiao Chengze is in good health every day, and his health is very good now, he doesn't have the confidence to live to be seventy or eighty years old.

After all, their ancient medical facilities were so poor. Xiao Chengze looked at the bright moon in the sky, "You can arrange the matter of going to Qinglong Temple." ”

"Understood." Xiao Chenzi continued, "I don't know if the queen wants to go along." ”

"If you want him to go with you. At this time, the two of us should stand and agree with these and let the people of the world see that this prosperous era will continue. Xiao Chengze said.

After Xiao Chengze finished strolling outside, he was originally going to go back to the bedroom to sleep, but he thought that Zhou Yunyi should have fallen asleep early, and now he was afraid that going back would disturb his rest, so he turned around and went to the study and rested in the ear room of the study.

Zhou Yunyi has always slept with him by Xiao Chengze during the days outside, and now he wakes up empty in the morning, looking at the figure without Xiao Chengze, his heart is inexplicably empty.

"Didn't Your Majesty come yesterday?" Zhou Yunyi wanted to confirm whether Xiao Chengze came quietly when he was asleep, and then tiptoed away?

"Back to the Queen. Your Majesty, did not come. "He didn't sleep all night last night, but only squinted in the next room for a while when it was almost dawn, so he was almost certain that the emperor hadn't been here.

"Oh, that's it. Then he must be sleeping in the study. Zhou Yunyi has been sleeping in Xiao Chengze's bedroom for the past few days, and he simply doesn't even go back to his palace, he stays here every day, and Xiao Chengze can't go back to sleep here, so he can only go to the study for the night.

Zhou Yunyi got dressed, put on makeup and went out. Although he is now the queen in the study, because there is no concubine in the harem, there is no errand for him to wake up in the morning and dusk. Although he hadn't done it before, he was completely free of these things, which made him feel more comfortable.

Xiao Chengze had already promised him. From now on, I will never take any more concubines.

Zhou Yunyi believes that Xiao Chengze, the previous concubines were not what he wanted to marry into the palace, but because of the entanglement of interests, he had to do it as a last resort, and now he doesn't have to do those things that violate his psychology.

Xiao Chengze also just got up in the study, and a table was set up for breakfast, in fact, because the treasury was relatively empty after the war, the emperor's breakfast was also simplified, for example, it was at least six dishes and one soup, but now all of them have been replaced with two dishes and one soup, of which these two dishes also include a staple food, such as a xiaolongbao and a stack. Egg custard is served with a bowl of porridge next to it, and this is a simple meal.

When Zhou Yunyi walked in, it happened that Xiao Chengze was eating breakfast. "Why are you here?"

"I just woke up, and I didn't see you, so I planned to come to the study to have a look."

"Xiao Chenzi, let the imperial dining room send the queen's breakfast to the study." In the absence of special distribution, the queen's breakfast was sent to Xiao Chengze's bedroom by default.

Zhou Yunyi should have just gone out with the front foot, and the back foot was sent to prevent it, and now they must be replaced, otherwise there will be no food.

The stomach of the imperial dining room quickly moved Zhou Yunyi to the study again this morning, and the two of them were exactly the same in the morning.

Zhou Yunyi didn't eat worse than Xiao Chengze because she was the queen, and the two of them simply divided two portions from one bowl.

"You're going to have to pack up tomorrow and put on a new one, or if you don't have a new one, at least it's brighter. But the pattern workmanship must be low-key, after all, we are going to worship the Buddha. ”

Xiao Chengze carefully instructed Zhou Yunyi to go to the temple tomorrow.

Now is the time for them to be noticed by the people of the world, and if there is something wrong, it will be infinitely magnified.

"Are you going to the temple?" Zhou Yunyi didn't quite understand, what was he doing at the temple at this time?

"Why?"

Xiao Chengze put down the chopsticks in his hand and said, "A simplified version of ancestor worship." ”

The ancestors of the royal family are generally divided into two kinds, one is the original version, just like the last time I was called to hunt in Dongshan, and the ancestors were worshiped before the hunt, and the second is the simple version, after all, the emperor has to visit his ancestors every year, and he can't go to Dongshan Mountain this time, but there is a lot of tossing back and forth, so they set up a simple ranking in the temple for convenience.

Qinglong Temple is a temple with a royal tablet, and there are high-ranking monks in it on weekdays. Seek incense and worship the emperor. When the time comes, you should also go to see your ancestors.

"We have just settled the sentence at this time, and the hearts of the people are more or less panicked, and it has not completely dispersed."
