Empress Dowager Li really said: "Naturally, I am free." If you're not busy, why don't you stay with me for lunch? ”

Empress Dowager Li's tone was tentative and cautious, and even a little pleading.

I don't know if the earnestness in Empress Dowager Li's eyes moved Princess Zhaoping, or if she wanted to be more natural, and finally Princess Zhaoping responded: "If that's the case, then I will stay with my mother." ”

Empress Dowager Li was already prepared for Princess Zhaoping to refuse, and she never expected Princess Zhaoping to agree. So when I heard such an affirmative answer, I was stunned for a while, and then I suddenly reacted, and immediately laughed almost from ear to ear: "That dare to be good-"

Before she was happy, Empress Dowager Li turned her head and instructed Izuyun: "Tell the small kitchen to prepare eight-treasure duck and steamed sea bass——"

These are her favorite foods. Princess Zhaoping sighed in her heart, and then interrupted the interested Empress Dowager Li in a faint tone: "It's just for lunch, and it doesn't have to be like this." It's just a matter of telling people to prepare according to the ordinary. Besides, I used to like the taste, but now I don't like it. ”

In fact, since she gave birth to Lin Yin, her taste has changed a lot. It's just that Empress Dowager Li doesn't know.

Suppressing the emotions in her heart, ignoring the loss and disappointment of Empress Dowager Li, Princess Zhaoping raised a smile: "I still have something to say to the queen mother, send everyone down first?" ”

Empress Dowager Li thought about it: As long as Princess Zhaoping is not gone and is still here, it really doesn't matter what she eats. So at that moment, he cheered up again and looked up at Izumo.

Izumo hurriedly led everyone out.

Princess Zhaoping and Empress Dowager Li sat opposite each other, with a green crystal glazed fruit bowl on the table, and grapes and plums resting in it. The grapes are purple and black and translucent, and they are attractive to look at. Although the plums are still green, this kind of plum is a tribute, but the taste is excellent, crisp, sweet and refreshing.

In addition, there is a set of tea sets that rain over the azure sky, and an incense burner for cranes.

Princess Zhaoping glanced at it, but stayed on the incense stove a little longer.

However, Empress Dowager Li misunderstood, and when Princess Zhaoping looked at the tea set again, she smiled and said, "Why don't I come to make tea myself." ”

Princess Zhaoping lowered her eyes to remove all the emotions in her eyes, and responded noncommittally.

Empress Dowager Li's cooking skills in making tea are excellent, and the first emperor also praised it himself many times. It's just that tea tasting depends on mood and interest. No matter how well Empress Dowager Li cooked, Princess Zhaoping had something in her heart, and she couldn't taste anything.

Looking at the Empress Dowager Li's enthusiastic appearance, Princess Zhaoping was too lazy to talk nonsense, pinching the teacup and unconsciously turning around and playing, her eyes were also staring at the tea soup, and her tone opened her mouth without hearing emotion: "The queen mother also knows what the emperor is like now." ”

Suddenly mentioning Zhu Li, the action of pouring tea in Empress Dowager Li's hand trembled slightly, so that the tea soup spilled a little. But soon Empress Dowager Li calmed down again and replied noncommittally: "I saw it." ”

Looking at Empress Dowager Li's attitude, Princess Zhaoping couldn't tell whether she was happy or angry: "What does the queen mother think?" "The thin teacup has been played with for a long time, and with the warmth of the tea, it feels very comfortable to hold in your hand. It also looks like the color is warmer.

She just played with it so casually, letting the tea soup ripple and collide in the cup, but it didn't spill out.

Empress Dowager Li's action of pouring tea finally stopped, she frowned slightly, as if she didn't understand: "What do you think in your heart?" Zhaoping, what exactly do you want to ask? ”

Empress Dowager Li's eyes were not so clear and looked at Princess Zhaoping quietly, but she also seemed to have the power to see through people's hearts.

Princess Zhaoping calmly looked at Empress Dowager Li, and finally slowly raised the corners of her lips to reveal a hint of ridicule: "Don't you really understand the consequences of your mother?" Or did you deliberately ask me that? ”

When Princess Zhaoping made this expression, the whole person looked extremely sharp and sharp, like a sharp and shining sword, beautiful enough and hurtful enough.

Empress Dowager Li looked at her in a slight trance: as a mother, she is naturally familiar with her daughter. So what she felt was pain and pride.

In the end, Empress Dowager Li laughed at herself: "Zhaoping, what do you think I should think?" How could you be so clever that you don't know what I'm thinking? ”

At this time, Princess Zhaoping couldn't help laughing: This is the Empress Li who has exhausted all the organs and has infinite wisdom. However, such a Queen Li makes people can't help but feel disgust from their bones.

"Isn't the queen mother bent on helping Zhu Qi get the throne? Isn't that a good opportunity? Doesn't the queen mother really have any ideas? Princess Zhaoping asked. It's not a smile.

Empress Dowager Li really smiled. Lifting the teapot and pouring the tea for Princess Zhaoping, she said softly: "That cup is cold, it has lost its flavor, don't drink it." When he finished this sentence and pushed the golden tea soup back in front of Princess Zhaoping, he said slowly: "Zhaoping, I don't know if you have heard a sentence called "Don't miss the opportunity, and don't come back if you lose it." ”

Princess Zhaoping put down the tea soup that she had been playing with for a long time in her hand, took out a handkerchief and wiped her fingers, and carefully pondered the meaning of Empress Dowager Li's words, and finally was a little surprised: "The queen mother's words, I don't know if I can understand that about the throne, the queen mother has actually given up a long time ago, and there is no obsession in her heart?" ”

Being asked so bluntly, Empress Dowager Li seemed to have some face, and it took a long time before she said: "You don't believe it? ”

Such a rhetorical question is actually equivalent to admitting.

Princess Zhaoping shook her head: "It's not that I don't believe it, but I feel a little surprised." After all, at that time, in order to achieve your goal, the queen mother did not compromise the means ....... not only killed Lin Xiaoyan, but also almost made Zhu Li die outside.

And now, Empress Dowager Li actually said such a frustrating sentence as "The opportunity must not be lost, and it will not come again" to show her abandonment.

It seems that because the topic has been opened, although Empress Dowager Li is still a little uncomfortable at this time, after a moment of silence, she still spoke again: "So far, even if I still have obsessions?" What can I do? Do you really think that the emperor has been a vegetarian for more than a year? To put it mildly, what do I have left now besides the name of the queen mother? As for Shiro, Shiro is still locked up in the house and is not allowed to enter and leave at will, and he has even been poisoned, what else do you think I can do? What do I dare to do? ”
