His Majesty the Emperor has not been going to Penglai Hall recently, but even his heart, ears, and gods have paid attention to here, and he has to muttered to himself several times every day: "I don't know what the queen is busy with?" Jiang Yu had no choice but to go to Penglai Hall to inquire, and when he came back, he also pretended to mutter, so that he could teach His Majesty to know what the queen used for breakfast, what refreshments the inner kitchen of Penglai Hall prepared today, Tianbu Wedge asked for peace during the day, and so on.

His Majesty generally doesn't ask questions, as if Jiang Yuan's self-talk has nothing to do with him, but during this time, he has been rewarded by Jiang Eunuch, and it is obvious that His Majesty greatly recognizes the eunuch's work ability. It's not that she's torturing herself, so is the hostess of Penglai Palace, she didn't find it so stubborn and tough before, why is it that this time, she just refuses to lower her body and take the initiative to make peace?

Jiang Yu dared to pat his chest and vouch, as long as the queen is willing to set up the ladder, the emperor can not wait to jump off the stage, the ladder is not practical, what the emperor needs is just the attitude that the queen is willing to build the ladder.

Sometimes Jiang Yuan even suspects that the queen is indifferent on the surface, but in fact she still cares about Her Majesty's "favor" Duan Jieyu, but in view of this matter, the queen is also to blame, of course, she is embarrassed to use the topic to play a small role, so she is angry with Your Majesty, and expresses her jealousy with an indifferent attitude.

But according to the results of Jiang Yuan's inquiry, the queen did not have a depressed mood at all, her diet and daily life were not affected at all, and she handled all kinds of affairs in an orderly manner, and even treated Duan Jieyu with generosity and kindness, Duan Jieyu was ordered by the emperor to seriously ask the queen for furnishings, etc., and the queen did not blame Duan Jieyu for being arrogant, and agreed very happily, and there was no sign of dissatisfaction and jealousy.

Seeing that His Majesty was so angry and angry, the more enthusiastic he was about "pampering" Duan Jieyu's plan, in order to increase his efforts to stimulate the queen's insensitive heart, how dare Jiang Yuan use his suspicions, which he can't even confirm, to admonish the saint not to mess around anymore, and to reconcile with the queen as soon as possible, and they don't have to worry about it anymore.

Therefore, even if the Cold War between the emperor and the queen seems to be very protracted and undesirable, but since the Cold War, His Majesty the Emperor is secretly concerned, and in fact, he also knows that Eleven Niang and Qi Zhaoyi plan to promote the activity of bowing, so one day, Eunuch Jiang heard His Majesty the Emperor muttering to himself again: "The queen ordered Qi Concubine to form a bow team in the harem to lure the eldest princess to participate in the confrontation competition, but without my permission, they took it upon themselves to raise it?" ”

Jiang Yuan: ......

It is clear that His Majesty the Emperor himself confesses to the queen, and the affairs of the harem are all decided by the queen, and there is no need to report to the Holy Authority.

Jiang Yu decided not to talk, this time he didn't want to understand - if he ran to remind the queen, His Majesty had a lot of complaints about this matter, the reason was that the queen did not report to His Majesty's permission, if the queen came to Zichen Hall to "confess the crime", it might be a good thing, in case the queen simply eliminated the plan and fought with His Majesty to the end, and the saint lifted a stone and smashed his feet, could he, the stone carrier, still be able to run away from anger?

Fortunately, it didn't take long for the queen's ice to finally show signs of melting, and Jiang Huai was sent to send an invitation post, saying that the first women's bow tournament in the palace invited many women and nobles to watch the battle, and also hoped that His Majesty the Emperor could come.

The emperor had a cold face: "If you didn't report my permission in advance, then you remembered to let me come and expand the scene for them?" ”

Jiang Yu coughed twice, and almost blurted out the reminder of "accept it when you see it", but fortunately, he didn't need his reminder, and the emperor also understood the truth of accepting it when he saw it, so he still pretended: "Jiang Yuan, let's see if I have free time that day, and if there is any other banquet." ”

There must be none, and even if there is, you have to be invited by the queen first.

Jiang Yuan's report made His Majesty the Emperor "comforted", so on the day of the official opening of the first team composed of palace maids in Daming Palace, His Majesty the Emperor was happy to watch the game, and he sat at the same table with the queen. The queen's tricks are indeed not visible, and she is still virtuous and generous on the surface, but today's "grand event" did not let Duan Jieyu be present, dangling in front of his eyes, this jealousy is really cute.

Although the barrier in his heart has not been completely dissolved, He Ye originally did not intend to continue the cold war, and secretly decided to take this opportunity to simply expose the disgusting incident of Shen Wuxuan without mentioning it, and the news of talking and laughing with the queen is needless to say, and occasionally he also joked with Liu Jiuniang, Mrs. Ruan and other relatives and friends of the queen, showing in public that the emperor and queen are still in love and harmony, he originally didn't pay attention to the event at all, but Eleven Niang was very concerned, but he couldn't understand which team had better skills, He Ye, an expert, of course, would explain in detail, and gradually watched the game test.

After the warm-up game, Qi Zhaoyi, who was dressed in riding clothes, led the team off the field, which attracted the audience to cheer and thunder, and they were amazed by Qi Zhaoyi's heroic posture. ”

He Ye obviously didn't realize at this time that Eleven Niang invited him to come with another intention, and such an intention would definitely not make him feel happy.

The team led by Qi Zhaoyi defeated the women's team trained by the eldest princess of Jin An with an absolute advantage, and Eleven Niang proposed: "Why don't you also select a few qualified people from the palace people, let the palace guards train them, and join the competition in the future?" ”

"Why not." He Ye expressed his support.

Eleven Niang in order to reward Qi Zhaoyi for a big victory, but also to congratulate the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty since the first official women's bow competition test is very popular, planning to set up a banquet in the Feihua Pavilion by the Taiye Pond to entertain the winning team, His Majesty the Emperor happily went, he has not been with the queen for a long time to push the cup to change the lamp, today is a very happy conversation, of course, to strive to abandon the previous suspicions, His Majesty even planned to be after a hearty drink, back to Penglai Hall in the evening, confessing that he is still "guarding himself like jade" wording.

During the banquet, Shi Niang intended to dominate the topic and did not leave the bow tactics, but she was not good at this way, so she only listened to the emperor and Qi Zhaoyi's conversation eagerly, and Shi Niang even persuaded to drink again and again - mainly for Qi Zhaoyi.

Zhaoyi is good to drink, but it is not as large as the queen, especially the wine prepared at the banquet, which is very different from the flower and fruit nectar that women are accustomed to drinking daily.

Eleven Niang knew that Qi Zhaoyi was greedy for cups, and after drinking, she talked about the style of great interest, and sure enough, after three glasses and two glasses, she saw that Qi Zhaoyi was becoming more and more hearty, no longer as sober, and was very cautious and cramped when she faced the saint.

She didn't sit for long, so she gave Ting and signaled, Ting and resigned, Eleven Niang also smiled and whispered to He Ye to explain, assuming that Ting had a business, discuss with her, so she had to walk away for a while, He Ye didn't think much at first, and still joked about the banquet that the queen proposed to buy, but don't think about stealing and playing tricks to avoid toasting, Eleven Niang smiled and promised to "return later", toasted He Ye a glass of wine, and asked him to temporarily take the helm, and be sure to let the "heroes" have fun.

Eleven Niang left the Feihua Pavilion, but it was also twilight, the winter night is always permeating faster, far away, the outline of the bright moon in the east is already clear, in the verandah on the west side, even the warm yellow firelight of the palace lamp is also jumping lively in the night.

The two sisters joined hands, slowly walking from the plum blossoms in this royal garden, who were still not in full bloom, Eleven Niang suddenly spoke lazily, and Ting also sighed: "Eleventh sister, why bother? I look at the words and deeds of the saint today, and it is clear that you are still as close as before, in the eyes and heart, how can you take care of others, how precious this affection is, the eleventh sister does this, I am afraid that the saint will be cold. ”

"I'm just, the act is just what I should do, and if I am discouraged, it is only a matter of time, and the sooner the Holy God sees through this result, maybe there will be less chagrin, after all, what I can't give, may not be something that others can't make up. Sixth sister, the saint and I, although they are husband and wife, but also the emperor, so they are destined to not be able to have both, I can expect to be with the saint, the righteousness of the monarch and the minister, the love of husband and wife, but I can't ask for the emperor's singleness, and it's not just me, the woman in the world, the beauty of the harem, no one dares to have this delusion. ”

"I can understand the mood of the eleventh sister, but I still don't approve of you doing this." Ting was worried: "If the saint is angry with Qi Zhaoyi because of his chagrin, wouldn't it be counterproductive? ”

"The Holy One will not." Eleven Niang looked at the zigzag and deep path under the boots, she felt that she was still smiling lightly at this time, completely unaware that the complex and sad emotions had been leaked, and in Ting's eyes, she couldn't help but feel sad in her heart.

"The saint has no aversion to Qi Zhaoyi, and has always been good at understanding people's hearts, Qi Zhaoyi is a glorious wind or hypocrisy and cunning, the saint knows it, and the saint has a temperament, often loves the house and Wu, he used to admire Qi Hou very much, regret the country's great general, can not be shrouded in horse leather, but died of cowardice in power, women take power. Therefore, even if the Holy One is resentful, he only complains about my insolence, and does not anger the innocent. ”

"Eleventh Sister knows the Holy Lord so well, how can she really be a person who is unkind?" Ting and gloomy, she could only hold Eleven Niang's hand even more: "I want to wait for the saint to calm down, and I should also understand the helplessness of the eleventh sister, naturally I will not take it seriously, it's just that my own heart is difficult to dispel, and I can't be open-minded for half my life, how can I comfort the eleventh sister?" It's better for the two of us to be helpless, today is simply not drunk, I am willing to be the host in the garden, can the eleventh sister be willing to appreciate the face? ”

Eleven Niang probably also felt that poetry and wine were frivolous, better than gloomy and sad, and besides, she couldn't even let down Sister Ting's kindness.

"Dare to disobey?" So I gladly went to the invitation.
