The expression on Empress Dowager Zhao's face was a little elusive, but she looked at Zhao Mei with a good mistake, and her tone was flat, "There can never be only one woman by the emperor's side, if you can't endure this calmly, it's better to leave the palace early, and your father and I will naturally help you choose a good marriage that suits you." ”

The expression on Zhao Mei's face really collapsed at this time, frowning and sulking alone, or Xing'er coughed lightly before Zhao Mei endured her emotions, and replied with great difficulty, "Mei'er knows." ”

It's just that the next moment, Zhao Mei's voice suddenly became high, "But she is from a humble background, how can she be worthy of serving Brother Mingze." Others can, but she can't. ”

Empress Dowager Zhao smiled slightly and shook her head, "You, you are still childish, and your father also told me that your temperament is not suitable for entering the palace." It's just that I know that you are sincere, and I can't bear to let your heart go down the drain. ”

Zhao Mei furrowed her brows and pursed her mouth, and said unconvinced, "Auntie, Mei'er has grown up." ”

Empress Dowager Zhao looked at Zhao Mei and just sighed helplessly, and then smiled again, "The emperor is older, and he has a dislike for me, if you enter the palace, you may not be afraid of the emperor." Even if you don't get the sincerity, even if everything is empty, Mei'er, don't you regret it? ”

Zhao Mei's eyebrows stretched, revealing a few hints of pride, "Mei'er has been raised by her aunt since she was a child, and she also takes her aunt as a model in her heart. ”

Empress Dowager Zhao looked at the look between Zhao Mei's eyebrows and eyes, and in a trance, she seemed to see herself who had just entered the palace many years ago, with the same longing, the same ambition, and the same stupidity.

Empress Dowager Zhao lowered her eyes and waved her hand, and her tone became ethereal, "The so-called love doesn't know what to do, and it goes deep." Emotional matters are never controlled by others, and it is useless to blindly force them, and it is common for you to not understand them now...... Go and rest, for I am tired. ”

After speaking, the Empress Dowager Zhao walked towards the inner hall with the help of Zhu Qing, Zhao Mei stood up and seemed to want to say something, and a little palace maid walked in front of Zhao Mei and blessed her body, "Girl, the side hall has been cleaned up according to the instructions of the Queen Mother." ”

Zhao Mei pursed her lips but was helpless, so she had to follow the little palace maid to the side hall.

When the door was closed, only Xing'er and Zhao Mei were left in the side hall. Zhao Mei sat in front of the mirror, Xing'er gently removed the hairpin ring for her, and combed the grate from head to end over and over again, and her voice was soft, "Miss don't worry, you are the niece of the Queen Mother, she must love you in her old heart, and what the Queen Mother said today is all for the good of Miss." ”

Xing'er looked at Zhao Mei's face, and swallowed the sentence that entering the palace may not be a good thing.

"I have loved Brother Mingze for more than ten years, he is good in everything, how can a man in the world compare to him. Xing'er, you grew up with me until now, you know me. ”

Zhao Mei slowly raised her eyes and stared at herself in the mirror, her eyes were firm, "In this life, I will not marry Brother Mingze." ”

Xing'er pursed her lips and smiled, "Miss, you will definitely get what you want." ”

The next morning, Zhao Mei went to Ganquan Palace with a box of dim sum, Xiao Mingze sat on the soft couch and read a book, and Zhao Mei took the tea set and sat on the side to make tea himself.

"Brother Mingze doesn't know if I remember, when I was a child, I followed my mother into the palace like this, you are studying and learning words, I practice making tea on the side, and after cooking, I insist that you taste it and you have to listen to you say a few words before you give up."

Zhao Mei smiled while boiling tea, and it seemed that the whole person had no offensive power. Xiao Mingze's thoughts drifted a little farther away when he heard this, revealing a warm smile, "Yes, Lone still remembers that you had a puppy at that time, and the plush and very close to each other, you still have to pull Lone to play with you in your spare time." ”

Zhao Mei stopped the movement in her hand, poured a cup of tea, got up and served it to Xiao Mingze, "Mei'er is not the little girl who can't cook tea now, after many years, Brother Mingze will taste the tea made by Mei'er himself." ”

Xiao Mingze took a sip and glanced at Zhao Mei approvingly, "It's really progressive." ”

Zhao Mei was also happy, walked back and sat down, a little lonely in his tone, "It's a pity that the puppy has been gone for several years, and occasionally when I think about it, I always feel like something is missing in the memories of the horn." ”

Xiao Mingze put the teacup aside, twisted a piece of hibiscus cake and took a bite, and then waved his hand and laughed heartily twice, "I just said that Mei'er has grown up, and she still looks like the little girl from before." Go back and ask the rare bird hall to choose the good one and send it to Shoukang Palace, so that you are satisfied. ”

Zhao Mei swept away the gloom and saluted happily, "Thank you, Brother Mingze." ”

The rare bird hall got Xiao Mingze's order, and picked a white puppy, so that it would run and jump and be sticky and tight, a pair of eyes rolled darkly, and when he saw someone, he only wagged his tail and did not bark, even if he fed it, he was careful to bite his fingers.

Zhao Mei liked it tightly in her heart, and begged Xiao Mingze to give her a name, called reunion. In the first few days, Zhao Mei was going to hug the reunion wherever he went, and everyone in the palace knew that Xiao Mingze doted on Zhao Mei and rewarded him with a puppy, and his attitude towards Zhao Mei became more and more respectful for a while.

Until one night, Zhao Mei broke into Ganquan Palace with tears on her face, and pounced on Xiao Mingze miserably, her voice choked up, "Brother Mingze, the reunion is gone, and I have searched all over the Shoukang Palace but there is still no trace." What should I do Brother Mingze, will something happen to the reunion? ”

Puppies grow up fast and are more playful, so sometimes the reunion will sneak out to play, but it will not be long before they will return to Zhao Mei, and gradually everyone will get used to the reunion suddenly disappearing.

Xiao Mingze frowned and helped Zhao Mei up and sat on the stool, slowing down his tone and coaxing, "Mei'er Mo is crying, Gu has already ordered someone to find it, what can happen in the palace, huh?" When I wanted to come, the puppy was playful, and Mei'er Mo was about to cry and hurt herself. ”

Zhao Mei stopped crying with a sob, but she still looked at the gate of Ganquan Palace in a daze, and whispered for a while, "It was given to Mei'er by Brother Mingze, and it is an extension of the memory......

As he spoke, Zhao Mei cried again, until he saw Xiao Dezi running back from outside in a hurry, so he stood up and asked. "Have you found a reunion?"

As soon as Xiao Dezi entered the hall, he knelt down, the sweat on his back had wet his underwear, and he trembled slightly, and he didn't say a word for a long time.

"Say, dumb can't be done."
