He was stunned, and then hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly: "I have always treated her as my sister, because my father needs the support of Shen Taifu and is afraid of being favored by the Shen family, so I will be raised in the palace for you. And we all have the responsibility to protect her."
I nodded and asked, "Then, doesn't the prince know what Sister Shen thinks about the prince?"
He smiled and said lightly, "It's not that I don't know, but I thought she would give up. She is usually very obedient. Thinking of Shen Weijun's character, the sudden change made him seem to be a little unacceptable.
I was not talking with a slight forehead, but there was an alarm in my heart. Shen Weijun is obviously hiding deeper than me. Now I'm not sure how much she believes in front of the Yue Lao Temple? Believe it or not.
I have nothing to say. Before getting off the bus, he suddenly called me: "You can ask me anything. As long as I can do it, I will definitely satisfy you."
I thought for a moment before saying, "You can make me three wishes." He was stunned, and then his face was immediately expressionless, and his ink-like eyes were gloomy and terrible. A trace of self-deprecation flashed in my eyes and said lightly, "I just mention it casually. The prince doesn't have to worry about it. There are already palace people to welcome you. Please, my lord.
The carriage was quiet. Seeing that he was motionless, I walked over and lifted the curtain, and the curtain of the palace horse *, which was on the same side, was picked up. Holding the vague hand, he slowly walked down the stool and got out of the carriage.
The speed is very slow, because my heart is faintly bitter and unspeakably uncomfortable. Three wishes, he should know that I won't go too much. How can I give up too much? It's just that he doesn't know me and thinks too much. I sighed secretly, so I only felt a light foot, and then I heard undulating gasps. A familiar voice came from my ear, which seemed to have some faint laughter: "The road is far away, how can I be willing to make the princess tired?"
My face burned so hot that he actually picked me up in public. You know, this is a palace! Unconsciously, my hand had tightly grasped the jade-colored clothes on his arm, and the touch of holding it in the palm was slightly warm and warmed my heart.
Last night, because we didn't finish the wedding candle, even if he gave me all the rights in the royal palace, someone would still look down on me. I am an unfavored princess. This word spread outside or inside the palace, and I'm afraid that more people will despise me for this reason. And now he obviously tells the world that I am important to him, even if it is not the most important thing, I still care about it.
His pace was extremely calm. Walking on the long street of Jiuhua Gate, everyone held their breath and waited closely for us, as if they were afraid of missing a prosperous fireworks in the blink of an eye. His hands hooked his neck extremely close to his chest, listened to his calm and powerful heartbeat, and smiled, "Your Majesty, you don't have to do this."
He looked down at me and smiled, "Is the sixth princess distressed for her husband?"
I laughed, and he also laughed. The smile slowly climbed up the corners of his eyes and eyebrows like lines, spreading from the ink-like pupils to the bottom of his heart. He is really good-looking when he smiles like this! I like it tight.
We met the emperor in Zhonghe Hall. After seeing me, Emperor Tianjiao couldn't help walking around me for a long time before smiling and saying, "No wonder General Fu is so reluctant. Lao Liu, you should cherish others."
I blushed when he said, and the twist that the new marriage should have suddenly appeared on my face. Jun Yu should also be smiling. Emperor Tianjiao called the personal general manager to talk about the rewards given to me, such as some silk, satin, gold, silver, jewelry and so on.
After seeing the proud emperor, the emperor left the emperor to talk in the middle and hall, and I was guided by the palace people to the harem to see the queen and the empress dowager. Because it was almost noon, the imperial queen who came to lead waited for me in the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace, so I followed the palace people directly to the Cining Palace.
Although it was not the first time to come to the palace of Vietnam, it was the first time I went so far, and the last time I went to the Hehuan Hall for the banquet. Cining Palace is behind the Queen's Fengling Palace. All the way, the palace people walk silently and seem to have endless vitality.
The Empress Dowager is an old man who is nearly 60 years old. Because of her old age and her poor health and looks like leaves shaking in the wind, she reluctantly received me and quickly went into the inner hall to cultivate herself by the queen. I stood in the hall waiting for the queen to come out. After a long time, I didn't see her, but the old woman beside the empress dowager ran out with a pale face.
When she ran past me, she didn't forget to salute me and looked at my eyes red. My heart thumped and asked urgently, "What's wrong with the Empress Dowager?"
She said, "The Empress Dowager fainted." After saying that, he didn't stop and trotted all the way out. I listened to the voice of the inner hall and said faintly, "Princess, let's go in and have a look."
I nodded and walked in with my skirt. As soon as you enter the inner hall, your eyes are full of light colors, giving people a warm and decadent feeling. The bed and some tassels are still bright yellow, symbolizing the royal nobleness, and there is a strong fragrance of medicine in the room. The carved flowers were big**, and the empress dowager lay there with her eyes closed, and the queen occasionally got up to change the forehead scarf for the empress dowager.
After seeing me come in, I sighed and said, "My mother is old, and I have to see you today." He said that his eyes were red here, and he hurriedly turned around to wipe his tears.
My eyes are also red. I don't know whether the empress dowager or the queen really loves me, but I am also quite hurt by such a scene. I didn't even see my mother's last look at the beginning, but now I can protect Jun Yao's mother and grandmother, which is also a kind of filial piety for Jun Yao.
I stepped forward to pick up the palace man's basin and kept throwing wet wipes to the queen. The queen looked at me with a soft smile. I don't know how long it took before the Empress Dowager had come back, and the Empress Dowager's face was blue and her breathing was a little unsmooth.
I don't know what kind of disease it is, but I think of something that may relieve her pain a little. I turned my head and said vaguely, "Do you take the elixir I usually take with me?"
faintly stunned, and then took a vague look at the Empress Dowager** and said, "Yes." With that, I took out a small purse from my arms. I quickly took out a jade bottle and poured out an elixir from it, and asked him to pour a cup of water and send it to the bedside.
I said, "This is what the fifth master usually uses for me to take care of myself. Please give it to the Empress Dowager first."
The queen has been looking at all my movements. I don't know what she thinks, but obviously she chose to believe me. She said, "I will help the Empress Dowager up and feed the medicine in." I nodded, and the two of them cooperated to feed the elixir into the Empress Dowager's mouth.
As soon as we finished taking the medicine for the Empress Dowager, there was an eager footsteps outside the hall. I don't think it's good for the palace to be too big. If there is any emergency, I guess it will be killed directly. With a sigh, someone came in.
Three middle-aged men came in with medicine boxes and saluted the queen in turn. The queen and I retreated to let the imperial doctors treat them. Waiting anxiously for the queen to turn around and explain something to the palace man behind him, the man ran away.
After the three imperial doctors finished the diagnosis and treatment in turn, one of them came out and saluted the queen and said, "Empress dowager, has the empress dowager taken any medicine?"
The queen looked at me and said, "Yes, what's wrong?" My heart suddenly raised the height. Although I am very confident in the fifth master's elixir, they are all matched according to my physique.
When the doctor heard the words, he quickly bowed and said, "Nothing, Weichen is just curious about the effect of this medicine. It's excellent. I'm afraid it's unimaginable if it's later!" The queen looked at me with approval and said, "How is the Empress Dowager now?"
"My mother-in-law, the Empress Dowager's condition has been basically stable, and she can take more care of her to reduce overwork in the future." After the doctor finished speaking, the three retreated.
The queen looked at me and smiled gently and said, "This time you have made a great contribution. No wonder the Empress Dowager likes it as soon as she sees you."
I smiled and saluted, "Mother, you are too polite. The empress dowager is my son's grandmother, and my son should do all this." The queen smiled on her forehead. While talking, the Empress Dowager woke up leisurely. The queen helped her sit up and sighed, "I'm old, and my body is useless."
I laughed and said, "How is grandma feeling?" I try to find some easy topics to avoid old topics about her.
The Empress Dowager was slightly stunned, as if she remembered me and smiled, "Why haven't you left yet? It's time to see Lao Liu's mother.
The queen smiled and said, "You suddenly fell asleep just now, and the imperial doctor came late. If it hadn't been for this girl's elixir, you..." As she spoke, the queen's eyes turned red. Don't turn around and wiped two tears.
The Empress Dowager patted the queen's hand comfortingly and said, "My family is old, and it will be a matter of return sooner or later. There are still many things in your six palaces. You don't have to accompany your family here all the time. He turned his head and looked at me and said, "I've heard that your father saved the fifth master that year. Did he give you the elixir?"
I nodded and said, "It's used to nourish my body."
The Empress Dowager laughed and said, "The emperor personally went to Kunlun Mountain to get a few elixirs from the fifth master, and fortunately, your father saved the fifth master to get such a generous reward."
My heart jumped and handed the jade bottle in my hand to Mother Fang and said, "I don't usually eat much. This thing tastes terrible. Grandma, please keep it."
The Empress Dowager shook her head weakly: "How can that work? It's like the old woman Ai's family wants your younger brother's things. I didn't dare to hear the words, but said, "This is my granddaughter-in-law's filial piety to you. If my daughter-in-law has time in the future, she will definitely go to the palace to accompany you more."
When the Empress Dowager heard the words, she waved me to sit on the edge of the bed, touched my head and smiled, "The mourning family likes it at first sight. Lao Liu doesn't have concubines like his brothers. He has been alone for so many years, and you don't have to care."
I was moved when I heard this. Sure enough, what happened in the six royal palaces in the morning had been known by the palace. Is the Empress Dowager comforting me by doing so? I'm relieved that a man should have three wives and four concubines, hugging left and right? I smiled faintly and said no.
The Empress Dowager said to the queen, "Go back first and leave this girl to talk with the mourning family for a while." The Empress Dowager's move was obviously to get rid of the queen, and the queen didn't say much, so she retreated.
After the queen left, the empress dowager asked me to sit in the queen's seat just now. The turbid eyes stared straight at me, as if to see me from the inside out. I was shocked. What on earth is the Empress Dowager going to say to me? Do you want to warn me not to participate in the government? Don't say that the six kings have not ascended the throne yet, but he can't allow me to interfere in my current relationship with him after he ascended the throne.
