Empress Dowager + Spoiler

Gu Xizhao: "..."

Gu Xizhao didn't want to argue with her on such a childish question, so she just pulled her hand back, folded her left and right hands together, and her resistance to hooking fingers and kissing was very clear.

Zhao Sansi finally belatedly realized that Gu Xizhao was not just shy, and touched her nose in embarrassment.

Seeing the red rouge sticking to her lips, Gu Xizhao felt ashamed, annoyed, and couldn't see it. She hesitated for a moment, then took out a handkerchief and tapped it on Zhao Sansi's lips, and helped her wipe off the rouge that had rubbed off. .

Zhao Sansi licked his lower lip, looking for something to say, "What kind of flower is the imperial concubine's rouge today, it's so beautiful."

Gu Xizhao didn't want to talk to her, but she couldn't bear to see the little fool looking at a loss, "Shaoyao."

Zhao Sansi: "No wonder it looks so good-looking."

It's too obvious to please and flatter, Gu Xizhao also hummed perfunctorily.

Just when the atmosphere was getting more and more awkward, Huarong came over with a smile and sent a message, "Your Majesty, madam, Marquis Changping has already entered the palace and is waiting in the front hall."

As soon as Huarong's words were passed on, Zhao Sansi remembered the business and became nervous again. He quickly took a picture in front of the bronze mirror and asked Huarong to look at it repeatedly. Then he took a deep breath and led Gu Xizhao forward. Temple went.

Changping Hou's family all entered the palace. Although Li Zhongxian served them tea, the whole family stood upright in a well-mannered manner, and no one moved the teacup until they saw the loud eunuch's singing coming from outside. The Marquis of Changping who stood at the head came out immediately, and when Zhao Sansi's bright yellow dragon robe came into view, the family immediately knelt down respectfully to salute.

Military generals salute differently than civil servants, they only need to kneel on one knee.

Zhao Sansi strode over hurriedly, and helped Changping Hou up himself, "Aiqing guarded the border for me, she worked hard and made great achievements, please hurry up."

Gu Xizhao watched from the side, but didn't see this little fool talking nonsense nervously, so she let out a sigh of relief and followed, "Father, mother, brother, sister-in-law."

Regardless of whether she is Mrs. Gu, the abandoned concubine of the first emperor, or the queen in the future, the Changping Hou family will always greet her. The restrained Changping Hou and her brother Gu Feiyang glanced at her, and immediately greeted her in return, but she The mother looked at her for a long time, her eyes turned red, and then she choked up and said, "Ma'am, are you okay?"

Gu Xizhao grew up away from her family, and her feelings for her family have always been indifferent. Now seeing Mrs. Changping Hou reunited after a long absence and ready to cry, she couldn't help but feel a little awkward, and took the initiative to hold her hand. hand, "My daughter is living a good life in the palace, so don't worry about it, mother."

Mrs. Changping Hou wiped away the tears that were about to come out of her eyes, and then looked at her with a good eye. After looking at her for a while, she lowered her head and looked at her belly, "According to the days, it has been more than three months. But you still have to be careful about everything."

Gu Xizhao raised her hand to touch her lower abdomen, "My daughter can save it."

Mrs. Changping Hou nodded, and when she looked up at Gu Xizhao, she remembered something, and couldn't help crying, "You have to learn a lesson, this woman is most vulnerable when she is pregnant..."

After speaking, Mrs. Changping Hou covered her mouth with her handkerchief again, and stopped talking.

Gu Xizhao knew what she wanted to say, but it was nothing more than thinking of her false pregnancy back then, and the slippery tire that followed.

Zhao Sansi, this idiot, doesn't understand what their mother and daughter are saying, just thinks that the mother and daughter are weeping with joy, and greets their family to go to the hall, gives them seats, and makes people serve refreshments, she sits on the main seat , his cheeks turned red at some point, and he tried his best to greet the dignified father and son of the Gu family who didn't talk much.

After all, the Marquis of Changping and his son are the generals guarding the border. This time when they enter the palace, they must not only tell about family affairs, but also tell about some government affairs of the border.

Therefore, after exchanging greetings for half an hour, Zhao Sansi called Cai Jun to discuss the border affairs with Gu's father and son, while Gu Xizhao took a few female relatives to her Changle Palace.

Back then when Gu Xizhao got the news that she was pregnant, Mrs. Changping Hou also came to Changle Palace. Seeing that Changle Palace is still there, she feels a little relieved. Gu Xizhao is not allowed to go to work, and she doesn't pay attention to those respectful words. Now, holding the person's hand, he said cheerfully, "You silly child, you are lucky to have a great life, otherwise you will really be buried with the late emperor, and I'm afraid you will cry to death..."

Gu Xizhao knows how much her mother loves her. Apart from her master, she didn't even tell her family members about her acting with Zhao Jin. When she learned that she was going to enter the palace, her father and brother just told her not to be those The beauty is a disaster, and she has to learn from those virtuous concubines in the previous dynasty.Only her mother was tearful and told her to be careful in everything in the palace.

It is true that she can see and feel Changping Hou's love for her, but she did not feel this kind of warmth when she needed the care of her family most. I can't get close anymore.

Therefore, Mrs. Changping Hou's sobbing words, besides making her feel slightly astringent, was more of a kind of at a loss as to how to respond, so she could only wipe her tears with a handkerchief and comfort her a few times. In other words, as soon as the person's emotions calmed down, he immediately changed the subject.

"Mother, the weather is very cold right now. I thought you would not arrive in the capital until at least the beginning of the twelfth lunar month after receiving the news from the emperor. How did you come back so quickly? Could it be that my father was in a hurry to come back and teach me a lesson, so he traveled day and night at full speed?"

Mrs. Marquis Changping shook her head, and subconsciously talked about love for the Gu family and his son, "Your father has climbed to his current position thanks to his own meritorious deeds. Don't take it to heart when he is a bit more dignified. To be honest, your father has When we received the news, someone from Beijing came to send you a message... When the emperor's news came again, we were already ready to leave, and it was only a few days earlier than you expected."

"Complaint?" Gu Xizhao chewed these two words carefully, "But how do you sue me?"

Those words were probably a bit harsh, Madam Changping Hou opened her mouth, but in the end she just sighed, "Forget it, you don't care what they say, just pay attention to your body right now and protect the dragon fetus."

Gu Xizhao nodded her chin, "Then do you know who the mother is?"

Mrs. Changping Hou shook her head, "That letter just appeared suddenly, and your father didn't find out at that time, so he doesn't know who it is."

Gu Xizhao lowered her eyes, and the corners of her lips twitched. She could guess who it was, "Did the father believe it?"

Mrs. Changpinghou looked at her expression and sighed inwardly, "Azhao, your father was innocent all his life, but he just didn't want... No matter what, he still loves you in his heart. Now, since you are pregnant with a dragon fetus, even if he wants to say What, there is nothing you can do. If your father speaks harshly later, don't take it to heart."

It means, if it wasn't for the sake of the dragon fetus, wouldn't her father still object?

Gu Xizhao glanced at Mrs. Changpinghou with a half-smile, "That's natural. My daughter will listen to what my father says. By the way, what did my father say to the emperor in private?"

"Huh?" Mrs. Changping Hou didn't realize it for a while, and after a while, she leaned into Gu Xizhao's ear, "I just glanced at the emperor, and the emperor is somewhat similar to the late emperor, but not as imposing as the late emperor. You honestly agree Say it for your mother, but the emperor forced you?"

"Daughter voluntarily, the emperor is a kinder person than the late emperor." Gu Xizhao smiled, and habitually touched her stomach, "Mother said so, I am afraid it is father..."

Mrs. Changping Hou lowered her voice again, "I won't hide it from you, when your father heard the news, he was a little unhappy, saying that the emperor is young and doesn't know how to worry about state affairs, so he will make these things that make the world laugh .”

Gu Xizhao lowered her eyes, her expression narrowed, and somehow she remembered what the little fool said just now when she was nervous - they all said that Marquis Changping is the most arrogant person, if they look down on me, they don't want you to be mine Queen, what should I do?

If her father really told the little fool that she was not allowed to make their daughter her queen, I don't know how the little fool would respond.

Thinking together, she lost her mood and greeted Mrs. Changpinghou and other female relatives. She raised her hand and rubbed her eyebrows as a gesture, then found a reason to feel unwell and went to the bedroom, and let the cicadas greet her outside.

On the other side, after Zhao Sansi and Changping Hou and his son talked about the frontier defense in the imperial study, Cai Jun had to leave after greeting someone because of something. He wanted to urge the imperial dining room to set up the banquet quickly, and it would not be so embarrassing to eat and drink at the table, but he didn't want to wait for him to speak first, and the future father-in-law said that he had to say a few words to her alone.

Zhao Sansi tensed up instantly, and quickly waved away the crowd, and when they were the only two left in the hall, she smirked and twisted her body on the chair, seemingly serious, but in fact she was extremely cautious, "I don't know Do you have anything to say to me, Aiqing?"
