The commander-in-chief is handsome and charming

Leaving the palace was something I had never thought about.

As a concubine of the late emperor, she was of course not allowed to leave the palace at will.

Even when he went home to visit his family, he never went back.

After becoming the empress dowager, she returned to the Lin family once.

I just went back to have a meal with my father, mother, brothers and sisters-in-law.

now……

I was a little confused and at a loss for a moment.

Thinking of the Regent Xu Shaoxun, he couldn't help but sigh softly.

The streets of the imperial capital back then,

Although it was just an accidental encounter, I still caught her eye accidentally.

But don’t say that I entered the palace.

Even the legitimate daughter of the Lin family cannot enter these princes' palaces.

He sighed quietly.

She waved to the maidservant who was waiting by her side and said, "Go down. I will stay by myself for a while."

Send all the people away.

I curled up on the couch, closed my eyes and organized my thoughts.

I was also thinking about whether I should leave the palace.

Leaving the palace and seeing the outside world is of course what I long for.

I even envied Ling Yun and Shen Qingdai at one point.

It’s just because of my status.

Now, my son is the emperor.

He was also willing to let me go out for a walk.

I was thinking about something randomly when the palace servant outside knocked on the door gently.

"Queen, the Regent sent something in."

It wasn't loud, but it was loud enough for me to hear.

I opened my eyes and looked at the light in the room. What could I ask someone to bring in at this hour?

He has sent in a lot of good things over the years.

Most of them were given to the emperor, and a small number were said to be given to honor the empress dowager.

So, I just treated it as an ordinary object.

"Send it in, I'll take a look."

The palace servant quickly came in carrying a small food box.

After putting it down, he respectfully left.

I looked at the lunch box.

Open it yourself.

What I saw was an ordinary envelope.

Open it suspiciously.

My heart skipped a beat.

A mauve handkerchief was just placed in the envelope.

The brocade is of the finest quality, but not very outstanding.

This is a very common material among noble ladies in Kyoto, but...

Pull the veil out from inside.

The koi carp embroidered on it is still bright after several years.

It can be seen that this handkerchief was well kept.

I took the handkerchief and looked at it, confirming that it was the one I used in the past.

But how did it end up in his hands?

The images in my mind keep changing.

I remember that when I was a child, I always liked to run behind my older brothers.

The Lin family often distributed porridge outside the city.

Several brothers accompanied their mother out of the city to manage the porridge stall.

Because I was young, I could follow my mother and watch the fun.

At that time...

Only then did I realize that there are so many poor people even under the emperor's feet.

Many of them are even naked.

The little beggar made me feel even more pity for him.

then……

Thinking about how Xu Shaoxun once lived among the people, it seemed that he had been a beggar at the feet of the emperor.

So this handkerchief was probably lost when I accompanied my mother to distribute porridge on several occasions.

Unexpectedly, he picked it up.

But what does this mean?

When I thought of some possibilities, my heart started beating wildly again.

Then he smiled to himself.

I entered the palace at the age of sixteen and served the late emperor as a concubine for several years.

And Xu Shaoxun is the eldest son of the late emperor.

Thinking of this, he looked at the handkerchief again and again.

Until the palace maid came in and lit the lights.

The handkerchief was then burned by me in the flames.

Then he sighed again.

It was just me who asked someone to help me wash and dress.

Not yet back inside the bed tent.

The palace servant outside knocked on the door gently again.

"Queen Mother, His Majesty sent something over."

This sentence made me slightly stunned.

Your Majesty has just led a personal expedition, and at this time, Prime Minister Sun should be with you to handle state affairs in the Imperial Study.

How do you have time to ask someone to send things over?

She waved to the maid and bowed before going out.

The things were brought in quickly.

The box was carried in and I looked at it curiously.

What the hell is this?

The palace servant outside the door bowed and saluted, then spoke through the door, "Queen Dowager, His Majesty asked me to pass on a message from Prime Minister Sun."

"The Prime Minister said that etiquette is nothing!"

This sentence really shocked me.

It took me a long while to react.

This is... what the old-fashioned and serious Prime Minister Sun said???

I was stunned and couldn't react.

But the palace maid had already retreated far away.

The maid looked at me and said, "Queen, do you want to open this box?"

She asked carefully, her eyes falling on the large box.

"Go back."

He waved at her until everyone left.

Then he stepped forward and opened the box.

At the top is a big kite...

Here are some street gadgets.

It looked almost inconspicuous, but I was shocked.

She entered the palace that year and was soon made a concubine.

She was later conferred the title of Imperial Concubine.

Even though she is young, she still acts like a royal concubine.

Even when putting on makeup, I would deliberately make myself look older.

I once stood in the Imperial Garden and watched the group of concubines flying kites.

One year, on the birthday of the late emperor, the people presented him with many small items.

Although it is not expensive, it is novel.

The concubines rushed to see it, but His Majesty ordered all the things to be thrown away.

Look through the contents of the box bit by bit.

Almost all of them are things I have liked or have taken a closer look at.

At the very bottom is a fiery red fox cloak.

I once told my second brother that I wanted to go to the border to see the snow.

My second brother joked that I couldn't stand the cold over there.

My eyes unconsciously felt a little sore.

Sitting blankly in front of the dressing table, the person in the mirror washed off her heavy makeup.

Revealing a face that is still young.

It turns out... I'm only thirty-six years old.

He raised his hand and touched his face, then looked at the open box.

He turned around and quietly closed the box.

Lying quietly on the bed.

The next day, the Regent left Beijing.

His Majesty personally saw him off.

The carriage started from the imperial city and headed north after leaving the city gate.

I was sitting in the carriage, and Xu Shaoxun, sitting opposite me, was still smiling warmly.

"Too..." He had only said one word when he paused.

I sat there and looked at him with a smile "Lin Yue"

"it is good."

He sat there, nodding slightly, his eyes fixed on my face.

Then the upright body suddenly leaned back, showing a bit of laziness and casualness.

"Out of that place, no one knows who you are, and no one knows who I am."

"So, you can learn from me." He leaned there, raised his hand to grab the fruit on the small table, and took a bite of one casually.

I never knew he could be like this.

He tentatively moved his body, then tilted it slightly.

I followed his example and grabbed a fruit.

I took a hesitant bite.

His voice soon sounded, "Bite harder, you can't taste it this way."

I blinked at him, then looked at the fruit in my hand.

Finally took a big bite.

"Hahahahahaha" He laughed wantonly and looked at me with approval, "Yes, that's it."

The usually gentle person suddenly smiled so freely and flamboyantly that it was inexplicably dazzling.

I stared at him blankly, met his gaze, and then belatedly lowered my head.

His smiling voice echoed in my ears again, "We have plenty of time to get to know each other."

"If you can take a step forward, I will be happy."

"If not, then I will just accompany you to see the prosperity of the world."

My heart started beating gently again.

No longer under control.
