"Mrs. Xi, please get up."

Xiao Suirong smiled in his eyes, spoke softly, and glanced at the chief eunuch.

The chief eunuch sensibly prepared to step forward to help Chi Xi, and Xi Dazhuang stepped over and pulled Chi Xi up.

Chi Xi stood up with Xi Dazhuang's strength, and looked at him with a bright and shy smile.

The couple hadn't seen each other for five months, and although she was busy and often received messages about him, she still thought of him.

Today, she has a thousand words to say to him.

But there were many people here, so she restrained the strong joy and nostalgia in her heart, and called out in a low voice: "Xianggong." ”

Xi Dazhuang's Adam's apple rolled slightly, his eyes stared at Chixi deeply for a long time, and finally he didn't say anything, just nodded lightly.

Xiao Suirong, who was sitting on the high platform, took in everything, his eyes flashed slightly, and then asked with a gentle smile: "Mrs. Xi, I heard that you have a way to solve my urgent needs, I don't know what kind of method you have?" ”

"Your Majesty, the women heard that there was a shortage of food and medicinal materials in the frontier, so they brought all their families to support."

Chi Xi looked up at the emperor, and said in a calm voice: "Xianggong once said that a weak country has no strong soldiers, and a strong army is not a weak country. As a member of the imperial dynasty and as the emperor's people, Xianggong and I are willing to take out all the food, medicinal herbs, and silver at home when the emperor and the emperor need it, and send them to the frontier so that the soldiers and war horses can be fed, without worries, and defeat the enemy army as soon as possible and triumph as soon as possible. ”

Xiao Suirong's eyes instantly became very complicated, and he squinted slightly: "Mrs. Xi, do you know what you are talking about?" Once you make this decision, it means that all your previous efforts will be in vain. ”

"The emperor's words are wrong."

Chi Xi blinked, his expression serious and determined: "My father-in-law also said that it is a good thing that a general dies in a hundred battles, and a strong man returns in ten years, because war is very cruel." Dying on the battlefield is not a humiliating way to die, but there are countless soldiers who starve to death because of the difficult conditions and lack of food, or die of a small injury because they cannot be healed, how sad. Although I am a peasant woman, I can't do big things, and I can't get into the hall of elegance, but I also know the truth that the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, not to mention that my husband is loyal and patriotic, and I definitely don't want to see the frontier soldiers and war horses defeated without a fight due to lack of food. ”

When Chixi looked sideways at Xi Dazhuang, her eyes were full of affection, and a smile flashed in her eyes, and she whispered: "What the husband wishes is what the women want." Therefore, I brought all my family savings with me, hoping to make a difference. ”

"Good, good! Mrs. Xi is worthy of being a heroine among women, and it is the responsibility of the husband to rise and fall in the world! ”

Xiao Suirong applauded and laughed, and said in a good mood: "I heard earlier that Mrs. Xi has a lot of business wealth, I don't know how many medicinal materials and food I can donate to the imperial court?" ”

"Your Majesty, there are 10,000 dried smoked ducks, dried smoked chickens, and 10,000 dried smoked hungry, and the salt content is sufficient! 10,000 stone of coarse grain, 500 stone of polished rice! All kinds of healing herbs add up to 50,000 catties! ”

Chi Xi counted all the items he had donated without humility or arrogance: "There are also 5,000 pieces of warm cotton clothes!" ”

These things were prepared for her by her family, and she paid for all the expenses.

"Good! Ok, good, good! ”

Xiao Suirong was overjoyed, waved his big hand and hurriedly said: "Come on, transport the materials brought by Mrs. Xi to the frontier and hand them over to Huo Liancheng as soon as possible!" Mrs. Xi understands the righteousness so well, gives generously, and shares her worries for me, she is really a woman who does not let her eyebrows go! From now on, General Xi will be reinstated as an officer, and Mrs. Xi will be named Mrs. Yipin! ”

Xi Dazhuang was in a very complicated mood, and took Chixi's little hand and stepped forward to thank the emperor.

Sleepiness came, and someone handed a pillow.

Xiao Suirong was in a good mood, and even asked the queen to invite Chixi into the palace on the second day to express her affection.

The queen was a gentle and gentle woman, she looked very gentle, kind-eyed, more than ten years older than Chi Xi, and the moment she saw Chi Xi, her eyes showed a gentle smile.

When Chi Xi curtsy his knees, he hurriedly stepped forward to help Chi Xi up, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Xi doesn't need to be polite, you have already informed the palace yesterday, and the palace really admires it, so I hurriedly invited Mrs. Xi into the palace today, and I hope Mrs. Xi doesn't mind." ”

The queen is the mother of a nation.

If you want to see the lady of any family, it's just a matter of will, she can be polite to Chixi, but Chixi can't be ignorant of the rules.

Chi Xi smiled lightly and stood up with the strength of the queen mother's support for her, and said with a gentle smile: "The queen mother is wrong, the courtiers are not righteous, they are just a village woman." It's just that what Xianggong wishes is that the dynasty is stable, the emperor is worry-free, and the frontier soldiers are safe and sound, and I only want Xianggong to get what he wants. ”

Chi Xi said this cleverly.

not only expressed Xi Dazhuang's concern for the country and the people for the king, but also expressed that he has no great righteousness, but loves his husband deeply and wishes his husband what he wants.

Even if a gentle woman is, she will be jealous, and Chi Xi will not be stupid to think that the queen mother, who can sit in the harem for more than ten years, is really a simple-minded soft persimmon.

Even if she doesn't pose any threat to the queen, she doesn't dare to take credit, and it is the best policy to protect herself.

A hint of appreciation flashed in the queen's eyes, and she pulled Chi Xi to greet a few words before asking: "I heard that this palace has prepared a beauty cream and a lady cream, which can make a woman's skin tender and fair, and keep her youth forever?" ”

"I didn't expect the queen to know about it."

Chi Xi smiled in surprise, and then shook his head and said: "I do mix beauty cream and lady cream, and it does have the effect of making the skin tender and fair, but it can't keep us young forever, it just makes us women look younger and can delay aging." ”

The queen is no longer young.

Although she was a young couple with the emperor and had three children, she knew in her heart that the emperor respected her, but he didn't love her.

Over the years, the harem has come and gone, and there are many people, and the emperor's children are not three out of ten, so there is no need to say much about whose handwriting, and the emperor can no longer tolerate the Empress Dowager Guo.

And her three children are still alive now, not only let her do her best, but also the emperor promised to protect their children no matter what.

After all, her child is a descendant, and it is also the hope of her mother's family, and the emperor still needs her mother's family, so he will not let her child have anything to do.

She shouldn't have expected the emperor's favor anymore.

After all, she is over thirty years old, and she is not as young and cute as the seventeen or eighteen-year-old newcomers who have just entered the palace.

But she will also be unwilling.

Obviously, she is the only wife of the emperor and the mother of a country, how can she be left out in the cold?

How can it be ignored?

Sometimes she touches her face, and she will feel disgusted with her eyes in the bronze mirror that are not graceful or even full of dead silence.

But a month ago, a news from other places that came to the palace rekindled her hope!
