On this day, He Zhan's spirit was very sluggish.

I don't know what's going on, since yesterday evening, his nose has been itching and sneezing one after another, I don't know which villains are chewing their teeth behind his back, so he can't calm down to deal with official documents, thinking that he doesn't have to get up early today, and his desire to have a few drinks in the evening has also been disappointed - the case is in the shape of a person's time, and he is so sleepy that his upper and lower eyelids are fighting, and how can he care about leisure and leisure? Throw away the pen and paper, fall asleep in the study, after all, it is not as comfortable as the soft pillow of the high bed, and when you wake up, your whole body is sore and sweaty, and you can not really feel refreshed after taking a cold bath.

Of course, He Shangshu didn't expect that the "villain" who chewed his teeth behind his back was a father and son of the Heavenly Family.

He was standing under the porch at this time, shaking the paper fan in one hand and stretching his waist in the other, but he didn't have much of a leisurely look, but frowned and sullen, but saw a servant girl who he usually loved very much, and he changed his innocent and romantic taste, twisted and pinched and held the pot and walked over, learning the tone of the warbler's coquettish voice, pretentious and unbearable to look at directly, but she herself was unaware, low eyebrows and slanted eyes were complacent, thinking how beautiful such a posture was.

He Zhan pointed over with the paper fan: "Mugwort, with a tooth skirt, although the color is elegant, it does not match you, you have always loved bright and bright colors, and it is more in line with your temperament, and why do you twist and pinch it, and you also use it to say something, and you are evil?" ”

The maidservant was full of grievances: "Hanshuang was dressed like this that day, the lord of the lang clearly praised her for her elegance and liked her demeanor, and the maid was afraid that the lord of the lang would dislike the vulgar and rude......"

He Zhan rubbed his brows: "The style is different, but it is natural as the best, the frost is elegant and subtle, and your beauty is hearty and lively, each with its own fun. If you really think that frost is more beautiful, you should not just imitate its appearance, and have a poetry and book in your belly, so it is better to ask her how to practice the inner and read more poetry and books in order to understand the meaning of elegance. ”

The maid waved her hand busily: "The maid is stupid, but she can't learn those poems and songs, so the maid will go and change her dress, and she will never dare to follow her example in the future." After saying that, he lifted his skirt slightly, and ran away.

He Zhan shook the fan and said loudly: "Yes, yes, it's natural." ”

Suddenly, he saw a corner of the moon gate, his wife Wanluo was standing there, quite embarrassed to advance or retreat, He Shangshu couldn't help but rub his brows again, and shook his fan to greet him: "Why are you standing under the sun?" ”

As he spoke, he turned around and walked towards a gazebo by the corner gate.

Yuan Shi lowered her head and followed, and also sat on the reed mat, with a smile on the corner of her lips, but her eyes looked at the reed mat, the blue leaves outlined in ink: "Seeing that the husband is training the maid, I don't dare to disturb." ”

"I know that you are always paid attention to etiquette, and you are not used to being a servant, and I shouldn't have interfered in the affairs of the inner house, but in this courtyard, I also hope that the lady will be a little more lenient."

Yuan Shi hurriedly argued: "The concubine is not dissatisfied, but ...... lest you interrupt the husband and cause misunderstandings. ”

He Zhan was a little helpless, he knew that he was indeed a little indulgent servant, but he really didn't like the slaves around him to be cautious and cautious, although these daughters did not have a good background, but there was no lack of style and beauty, he admired their natural and simple beauty, which was about to be considered lustful, he knew that his wife minded, but he really couldn't tolerate being surrounded by lackluster people.

simply avoid this topic: "Wei came to the door early in the morning, what is the matter?" ”

To this day, He Zhan still refuses to call Wei "sister-in-law", Wanluo is indeed helpless, she considered her words, and responded: "The concubine is reminding the concubine of one thing...... That Ren Shi Niang, now left in the Chang'an Palace by the Queen Mother, went out of the palace yesterday at the end of the day, and specially invited the wife and several female dependents to interview, saying that the Queen Mother and Her Royal Highness the Queen were angry, upset and irritable, and hoped that the women could take a day to spare and enter the palace together to comfort them, and the women felt strange in their hearts, wondering how the Queen Mother would treat the queen as if she were her own...... The concubine was in Luoyang at that time, and she had seen Her Royal Highness the Queen, and she knew more things than the concubine, but she also knew that she couldn't publicize it, but she just dealt with the concubine a few words, and the concubine didn't ask. ”

"It seems that the queen has officially declared war on the queen mother." Of course, He Zhan was not surprised by this matter, and told Wanluo truthfully: "Many things, I really haven't explained to you before, it is a matter of life and death, I should be cautious, I also know that since you learned that when today's incident occurred, I was shocked in my heart, and I will definitely mind the husband and wife for many years, but I have never told me honestly, this matter is that I can't live with you, but in the future, I don't want to hide it from you, the conflict between the queen and the queen mother is just beginning to show signs at the moment, and it will be more intense in the future, you should also be prepared in your heart, for the Puning Fang family, In the future, it is still necessary to be vigilant, but the queen and the queen mother have turned against each other, and it is okay to tell them. ”

Wan Luo promised, and said again: "The wife also mentioned one thing, ......" suddenly hesitated, and didn't know whether to say it or not.

He Zhan couldn't help frowning: "Is there anything unspeakable?" ”

"It was the concubine who suddenly woke up, and the reason why the concubine mentioned this matter is probably that she has understood the dispute between the queen mother and the queen from the tone of the concubine." Wanluo's expression became more and more confused: "The concubine is proposing, if Yu'er is chosen to be the emperor's eldest son in the future, can she also let Jia'er be a companion." ”

He Jia is the youngest son of He Lin and Wei, the same age as Yu'er, although he is a few years older than the emperor's eldest son, if he chooses to read with him, it is indeed one of the alternatives, but the alternative may not necessarily be selected, Wei wants to let He Jia get this opportunity through his cousin's nepotism.

He Zhan sneered: "The Wei family is indeed shrewd, although you didn't say it directly, from your attitude, she is only afraid that she has already decided that the emperor and queen are really of the same heart, so she dares to put the bet on the eldest son of the emperor!" ”

Suddenly, he tasted the meaning of his wife's words, and He Zhan's brows frowned even tighter: "Do you want Xiu'er to read with the emperor's eldest son?" ”

Yu'er's big name is Xiu, and since he turned ten years old, He Zhan no longer uses his nickname.

But He Zhan's question was not expressive, and his tone was quite stern, which made Wanluo's heart sink for a while, and she said after a long while: "The concubine thinks that the husband originally had this idea, and the queen has loved ......fish very much in the past."

"Eleven Niang won't let Xiu'er read with the prince." He Qi said categorically, when he saw his wife's anxious look, he took a breath, and slowly softened his tone to explain: "I am a close minister of the Son of Heaven, but in the past ten years, the world knows that I am the queen mother, and now although the court knows that I am truly loyal to the saint, they will still save things, accuse me of being opportunistic, and ridicule me at both ends of the first rat, I don't care, but the queen will care, so the queen will not let Xiu'er take the road of noble and fortunate ministers, and will be controversial like me in the future. Young age, not to mention the solid study of history, the talent of poetry is more superior than I was back then, and the future will look forward to the Jinshi and the first, this is the right way, if the saint can achieve the rule of the prosperous world, Xiu'er will achieve the future achievements should be above my father, he is expected to be upright, and has a strong ambition, you and I are his parents, should praise and support. ”

Wanluo lowered her head: "The concubine is ashamed, because she made the mistake of being short-sighted and impatient, and almost missed the future of Yu'er." ”

"A mother's heart naturally hopes that the child can take a shortcut." He Zhan waved his hand, he had no intention of blaming Wanluo.

"It's just that the concubine's side, I really don't know how to reply." Wan Luo was sad.

He Zhan was instantly furious: "What else is she dissatisfied with?" She is a member of the Wei family, she was a member of Mao Wei's party before, Mao Wei was deposed, it was I who reminded the Wei family to be cautious and attached to Yuan Dezhi, so she was saved from many bad things, and now that Empress Dowager Wei has lost power, He Lin and Wei have not been implicated, do they still expect the power of the government and the opposition on all sides? ! People's hearts are insufficient, we need to give them an explanation?! ”

Wanluo's heart was bitter, Wei was not only her concubine, but also her cousin, she didn't miss the rest of her feelings, but if it wasn't for her cousin who was the matchmaker back then, how could she become a husband and wife with He Zhan? But at the same time, she also knows that her husband's heart is knotted, her mother-in-law is ruthless, and her brother and sister-in-law are unjust, so how can she ask her husband to take into account the love of blood? There was only one excuse left for her to defend Wei.

"In front of the Ah family, there are also many concubines who turn around for concubines from time to time."

He Zhan took a deep breath: "What is the dissatisfaction of Mother now?" ”

"It's my aunt...... Because of my cousin...... Liu's death made many complaints about his husband, and he often complained in front of his family. ”

After Wanluo said this, she didn't hear He Zhan's response for a while, she was uneasy in her heart, she raised her eyes carefully, and she couldn't help but feel even more nervous when she looked at her husband's meaningful gaze.

"There are too many slanders, and now I don't have to worry about one more unfilial piety, Puningfang, you don't have to pay attention to it from now on, if your mother blames you, you just push it on me, and say that I won't let you go over to respond to their unreasonable trouble. Chai tori husband and wife, bearing the crime of treason and defection to the enemy, Liu is not a joint sitting, but the mastermind, and she deserves the punishment of beheading, for this matter, I have no guilt at all, and I don't need to ask for forgiveness from anyone. ”

"But after all, the husband has been married to her, hasn't he?" When these words blurted out, Wanluo herself was stunned.

He Zhan smiled lightly: "Do you mind? ”

But he didn't wait for his wife to answer, and asked himself: "Of course you should mind, but I must correct it, I and her are not called husband and wife, at best it is only a transaction, she is a buyer, I am a seller, and I was forced to sell my body by a woman, of course you should despise it, those people accuse me of unscrupulous means, laugh at me for being shameless, they may be right, I am not a decent gentleman in the first place, sorry, I am afraid that this matter will disappoint you again." ”

Seeing that her husband actually gave a long courtesy, it was really like a solemn confession, and then left without saying a word, Wanluo was anxious, and even more annoyed that she didn't choose her words, she should have understood that her husband was forced to submit to Liu, not because of Liu's death, but because of this humiliating incident and was depressed, this is a fact that she should firmly believe, but she couldn't help but think crankily, what's wrong with her? Why have you become so stupid, so suspicious, so troubled by gains and losses?

It seems that after knowing those secrets, she became like this, although she had long been aware that her husband was hiding something from her, but I don't know when she began to be unwilling.

Why, why did you marry me, but you couldn't trust me wholeheartedly, you hid so many things from me, and even handed over your life and death to someone else, and I, as your wife, have been excluded by you.

After all these years, my husband, are you still, not in love?
