The emperor is a nine-tailed fox

Chapter 65 The Eve of the Big Wedding

I went out of the palace last month after being slapped on the board in despair. This time I came back, although it was a bit of a "returning home", but after all... my heart is sad.

The news outside the palace spread very quickly. The chief steward who heard the decree said that it would reach the palace at the fifth watch today, and His Majesty was so angry that he almost stopped the morning court. down.

He was similar to what I imagined, his eyes were shattered, Long Yan was furious, and he looked fierce.Luckily, Lan Shan stopped her, and she categorically cut off the emotional entanglement between us, which was constantly being reasoned out and remained chaotic.Do not marry if you are not Qing, do not marry if you are not Qing.

"Going out of the palace without permission, do you still think that you are the prince of a country, for a family... Are you really going to piss me off?" He heard that he really didn't want to see me.

At this moment, I am kneeling in the front hall of the West Palace with Fu Chen and Mu Er. They helped Lan Shan out of the palace because of helping the evildoers, and waited for His Majesty to convict me. But I am... just because the future father-in-law doesn't like me.

Unlike the hard black marble floor of the Imperial Study Room, the West Palace is covered with a layer of embroidered velvet carpet inside and outside. In the twelfth lunar month, even kneeling down can relieve the chill on your body.I don't want to participate in the dispute of the family of three in front of me for the time being, and my eyes are scattered on the crackling charcoal stove...

Until the arm was caressed by a soft force, with some fragrance.

"Little prince Linghu is still young, only one year older than our Shan'er, what kind of bad habits and customs are there, he will stay in the palace in the future, and call some father-in-law and mother-in-law. It will be fine." It's the empress, " Shan'er is seventeen, it stands to reason that she should have married a long time ago... I see that Xiang'er is also smart and cute, and Shan'er likes her, I think... there is nothing wrong with her!"

Empress, are you being too hasty?

Xiao Lanshan was pleasantly surprised, and went straight to her mother, performing a show of motherly love and filial piety.

His Majesty the Emperor was astonished, watching the two girls singing together.With a face as dark as the night, he flicked the wide cuffs angrily, and fanned out the sparks from the charcoal stove, which landed on the velvet carpet, making two small spots.Everything went wrong, and he left angrily.

After drawing the relationship map of the harem, I estimate that His Majesty the Emperor will have to rest at the Imperial Concubine tonight.Suddenly interfering with a harem drama, I couldn't help but feel ashamed. I lowered my eyes to sneak a few glances at this calm and composed mother of a nation, but I didn't see any worries about her.

He didn't even intend to persuade His Majesty the emperor, he just took Lan Shan's little hand and turned into the inner room, saying that he wanted to talk to his daughter, so the others should retreat temporarily.

I suddenly realized that the women in this harem have always been valued by their mothers and children. Lan Shan was the empress dowager when she was three years old. The future empress, empress, what are you worried about!

I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief when I heard the empress's "retire".Fuchen and Muer, a half-grey-haired senior, a little girl the same age as Xiao Fat Qiu, are more comfortable than me. Being tossed up and down like this is really tormenting both physically and mentally.They each wiped the sweat from their foreheads, followed the next group of people, bowed and retreated.

I should have followed, but before I could catch my breath, a father-in-law dressed as a servant called me from behind, saying that the empress and the empress dowager had sent me in for lunch.

Why didn't you just say that!

The large-scale layout of the West Palace is not much different from that of the East Palace, and he dare not slack off for a moment after following closely behind the eunuch.After all, I am grateful from the heart, and it is also thanks to Lan Shan's mother's rescue that I can temporarily escape from the sea of ​​suffering of His Majesty the Emperor.

Thinking of it this way, I also put in a bit of respect and spirit.

The inner hall is spacious, and the incense in the air is consistent with the rich fragrance of the empress, mixed with the fragrance of green leaves, and also mixed with the intensity of rose peonies.The intertwining and entanglement is more like the fusion of the elegance of the Central Plains and the unrestrainedness of the Western Regions.Don't have a feeling in your heart.

"The little prince is here, you are welcome, we are almost a family, please sit down," the empress greeted enthusiastically, motioning me to sit down next to Lan Shan.The court ladies and eunuchs who came in bowed their heads and were still setting dishes, which were steaming hot.It was useless to have the breakfast messed up by the little fat balls, and after experiencing the ravages of the storm, the stomach was really clamoring this hour.

But reason is still reminding me that the royal family is solemn and solemn, and I must not slack off.Putting his hands on his knees, he corrected his posture and answered all questions of the mother of a nation opposite.

The restraint was obvious, Lan Shan moved towards me.The queen empress also hurriedly said: "You are about to become your own family, you don't need to be too polite, and the hot soup and hot dishes are in front of you, so don't disappoint the good intentions of God." Then, she picked up the chopsticks beside the bowl gracefully, Put the braised fish head on for me, and this meal can be regarded as an official start...

It's rare for the little fat ball to please me, she rolled her cuffs, and kept stuffing vegetables and meat into my bowl: "The queen mother is gentler than the emperor father, you don't have to be cautious, just treat it as if you were at home..."

Can that be the same!

The empress smiled, and ordered the maid beside her to get a pot of peach blossom wine she had just brewed, and continued to chat with me about the housework.Greeting a few words about the food and clothing of the palace, and also happily recalling that it has been a long time since I have seen my father, king and mother concubine, and said yes, the two elders should be taken into the palace to stay for a few days.Together with several servants, I have planned the marriage of the crown princess...

Don't worry me.

Now that the arrow is on the string, I have to put it there, and I also have the idea of ​​expressing my heart to Lan Shan.Bai Su and I are the only ones who know each other, but Xiao Lanshan has no choice but to fall in love with me.I didn't realize it earlier, it was just her playing with me, after all, in my eyes, she is still the same as the child back then.To her, I can say it's sisterhood, or a close friend, but the love she wants is missing...

The Empress deliberately took time out of her busy schedule and ordered that no one should disturb her unless the sky was falling.

A middle-aged woman's chatterbox is undoubtedly a bit gentler than the flood that burst the embankment.He smiled at me, asked me how many good sisters I have, and by the way, cared about my childhood past from beginning to end.Hobbies, interests, friends asked over and over again.

After a few hours, my mouth was dry and my face was sore and numb.

It's so embarrassing to call our Royal Highness the Empress Dowager!With a blushing face, she said shyly, "Mother, if you continue to ask, it will be dawn soon..."

This makes sense!

After being reminded by this, the empress immediately returned to her senses and looked out the window, confirming that the moon and stars were thin as Lan Shan said, she covered her mouth in embarrassment, brushed off the brocade handkerchief in her hand and yelled: "I'm getting old. , the same is true, the little prince is also tired, go back and rest quickly...hehehe."

The night of the twelfth lunar month was cold, and as soon as he left the main hall of the West Palace, he was suddenly choked by a cold current and coughed twice.A warm little hand caressed my chest, holding my breath for me.I hurriedly waved my hand to her, indicating that it was okay.

"Are you feeling unwell?"

"It's okay, the alternation of hot and cold is too fast."

She frowned, put my arm together, and said anxiously: "Then go faster, the queen mother will arrange your bedroom in the Nuan Pavilion, it will be much better there." After speaking, she took the long burning lamp in the hand of the maid holding the lamp, and walked towards me Take a picture of your face, as if you don't believe me.

While the dim candlelight penetrated through the caged surface, it also exuded tranquil warmth, which drove away the cold air in my nostrils.Seize the opportunity, take a few sips, and feel much better.
