In the early spring, the spring sun broke through the dark clouds, the snow squeezed down in the winter gradually melted, and in the cold of spring, Gu Qingping ushered in his eleventh birthday.

At this time in previous years, Xu Zhaoyi would always cook a bowl of longevity noodles for her personally, but this year Xu Zhaoyi was not there, and the person who cooked became Taoyao.

Concubine Shu and Cheng Hou sent a birthday gift, according to the custom, she should go and thank the two mothers.

Gu Qingping changed into a crimson dress that was rarely worn on weekdays, took Tao Yao, and went to the Chunlai Palace first, and then to the Fengqi Palace.

Cheng Hou has been lazy to go out since the slippery tire, and the concubines' invitations are all exempted on weekdays, she went to ask for peace at this moment, Aunt Zhuyue personally led people to greet her, Gu Qingping thanked her calmly, and then followed her in.

The furnishings in the Fengqi Palace are the same as in the past, and the plum blossoms in the palace still have residual snow, covered with sparse plum blossoms, and all of them will wither away.

Cheng Hou saw her in the main hall of the main palace, as soon as she stepped in, there was a warm fragrance, a sweet silk, the jasper paved in the palace, the snow-white veil fell to the ground, in the splendid world, Cheng Hou was dressed in a red palace skirt, red makeup and jade ornaments, showing the temperament of the mother of the country.

Gu Qing bowed steadily: "Qingping meets the queen." ”

Cheng Hou smiled slightly: "Just be even." Today you are a birthday star, you don't have to be too formal. ”

The maid brought a chair and served new tea.

Gu Qingping told the guilty party to sit down, and Cheng Hou watched her series of movements in an orderly and calm manner, and couldn't help but look up to her for half a point.

Gu Qingping lowered his eyebrows, his attitude was respectful, and he gossiped with Cheng Hou.

Cheng Hou's heart moved: "The poor concubine is a blessed person, and if she has a good daughter like you, she will not die in vain." The palace is very deserted here, if Ping'er is interested, it is better to come to the palace every day to gossip. ”

Gu Qingping's eyes were secretly surprised, and seeing that Cheng Hou's expression was as usual, much gentler, her mind turned slightly, and then replied with a smile: "Niangniang's will, Qingping dare not disobey." ”

When Cheng Hou saw her coming, he smiled even deeper, so he picked up a white jade chuan in his hand and handed it to Gu Qingping from Lin'an: "This is what the mother of this palace asked for in Xian'an Temple, to keep it safe, and I will give it to you now." ”

Gu Qingping took it with both hands, and bowed again: "Xie Niangniang Longen." ”

Lin'an presented a cup of hot tea, Cheng Hou took it, took a sip, and said: "I heard from this palace that you have loved books since you were a child, and you often go to Qiongyulou to read?" ”

Gu Qingping said respectfully: "Hui Niangniang, there is indeed such a thing. ”

Cheng Hou turned his gaze and looked at the jasper bricks chiseled on the ground: "There is a master disciple of Wensheng living in Qiongyu Building, I heard that he is knowledgeable and knows everything, have you ever met it?" ”

Gu Qingping was shocked, and in a few breaths, he already knew the meaning of Cheng Hou's words: "Back to Niangniang, I have heard it for a long time, but I have never seen it." ”

Cheng Hou turned his gaze to her with satisfaction: "Disciple of Wensheng, needless to say, knowledge, if you really love books, why don't you go to see this gentleman early and ask him to answer your questions?" This palace has always loved Wen Sheng's ink treasure, and when you meet that gentleman, you must remember to ask for a pair of ink treasures for this palace. ”

Gu Qingping's heart was calm: "I wish it was as Niangniang said." ”

Cheng Hou got up: "After talking about it for half a day, the palace is also tired." Go back. ”

Gu Qingping then resigned.

Cheng Hou leaned on the soft pillow, Lin'an held the fruits and vegetables frozen in winter, and lifted them so that Cheng Hou could get them, and said: "Niangniang, these three princesses, what can impress you?" ”

Cheng Hou let out a long sigh: "I know how to advance and retreat, I know etiquette, and I am brave and strategic, but it's a pity that it's not my son." ”

Pro Ann Ran.

Cheng Hou pinched up an apricot: "Do you think that I have no children, and the Wang family sent two beauties in to assist me?" In fact, otherwise, since the child is gone, I know that the Wang family will definitely give up this palace. It's just a queen of the middle palace, and there are others without the palace. But in this palace, there is only this one thing that can be held firmly. Gu Qingping's daughter is the eldest daughter of His Majesty, and if she succeeds under the knees of the palace, she will be the eldest daughter of the emperor."

"What's more, she is so satisfied, her mother is newly mourned, she can fight for her mother to get back a concubine, if this palace is her mother, then ...... The position of the queen mother may be just around the corner. Cheng Hou smiled slightly.

Lin'an said: "Niangniang, this move is very risky, not to mention how the third princess is a person, as far as she is a woman, the dynasty has been a hundred years, how can there be an empress?" If the third princess is old, it will not be good, and she will live up to the hard work of the mother? Let's say that she is only ten years old now, and she has not seen her true nature, so please think about this move slowly. ”

Cheng Hou looked at him funny: "You are right. If she can worship the disciples of the saint as a teacher, this palace can lend a helping hand to her, and whether she is a dragon or a worm in the future depends on her creation. ”

Lin'an knelt down: "Niangniang is smart." ”

……

Qiongyu Building, Haoshan Courtyard.

Under the green pine, set up a plate of endgame, His Majesty is often in clothes, embracing a thick coat, opposite him, Mr. leans on the pine and sits, long hair fluttering, leisurely like a fairy in the world.

Mr. fell a son: "There is no regret about the chess game, Your Majesty, have you ever regretted it." ”

Emperor Sheng Yuan's face was not revealing a moment, and he also fell behind: "What about regrets, what about not regretting, the chessboard has begun, you and I are both people in the board." ”

The gentleman looked at him for a long time, and suddenly threw the chess pieces and landed on the white stone: "Your Majesty, the grass people are about to go out of the mountain." ”

Emperor Sheng Yuan was very interested: "I don't know sir, which of my descendants has taken a fancy to?" ”

The gentleman smiled, "Sometimes there must be in life." This disciple will be sent to the door himself. Your Majesty, just look at it. ”

Emperor Sheng Yuan raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Mr. entered the WTO, did he want to save this great Jin country?" ”

Mr. Wrapping clothes: "What the grass people saved was not the Great Jin River, but the Xinjun River." Your Majesty, the world is back in turmoil, it's time to stir up the situation. ”

Both of them were frail and sickly, but they sat together in the tuyere and pretended to be elegant, and soon they both coughed, coughing and coughing, and the two looked at each other, looked at each other and smiled.

His Majesty got up leisurely: "I will wait for the good news of Mr. ”
