a pillow in autumn

Zhou Yuanzheng's pretty face didn't show any joyful expression. He squinted his mouth, looked at the door and tilted his head and asked, "Mother, concubine, is it true? Is the father and the concubine going to have younger brothers and sisters?" ?”

Zhou Yuanyu was taken aback for a moment, then looked back, and sure enough, he saw Princess Rui standing in the hanging flower door of the flower hall at some point, and he presumably overheard what he said just now.

The little emperor is already 11 years old, he is not too young, and he is ignorant about what he should know.Seeing the indistinguishable expression on Princess Rui's face, he thought in his heart that something was wrong!She stood up embarrassingly, took a step back, and said: "Auntie is well. Er... I... I went to... I still have something to do in the imperial study, ah, no, Shao Fu left homework, I will go to the study first. "

Saying that, he saluted casually, and ran out in a flash.

It was getting dark early in winter, and when Zhou Mubai returned to Quanqing Palace after finishing his government affairs, the lanterns in the Hegong Palace had already been lit.

Usually when they came back, Yuan Zheng and Hua Wan would pounce on their father and act coquettishly, but today they were very quiet, sitting obediently next to their mother and concubine. Seeing Zhou Mubai coming, Yuan Zheng pouted and pounced on On Shen Xianxun's knee.

"What's the matter?" Mu Bai hugged Hua Wan, and asked with a smile: "Who made the concubine mother angry?"

"Father!" Huawan complained in a childish voice: "Father made mother and concubine angry!"

"Ah?" Mu Bai turned to look at Xian Xun.

Slender and long eyebrows like Dai, she raised them lightly.

After dinner, the night is more intense.The wet nurse and maids coaxed the young master and young lady back to the room.

There were several high piles of memorials on the desk in the study, Zhou Mubai weighed several difficult political affairs during the day, and looked for more leaks. It was almost two o'clock, she rubbed the tip of her eyebrows, and called someone The girl lights up the lantern and walks to the sleeping hall.

The candles in the sleeping hall were brightly lit, burning the inner room like daytime.Shuyao held a piece of needlework in her hand and didn't do it, she just poked her head to watch Wang Hao and Si Yuan playing Go, seeing Zhou Mubai coming in, the two maids bowed their bodies and went out smiling.

Shen Xianxun threw the chess pieces back into the chess cup one by one, and the sound of ding ding dong dong was endless.

Zhou Mubai also noticed that she was not in high spirits all night, wondering if he really provoked her, so he walked over cautiously and sat on the soft seat beside the chessboard.

"princess……"

She put her arms around her shoulders, before she finished speaking, Xian Xun brushed her away, and called the girl, saying that she was tired.

Zhou Mubai blinked, seeing that the maids were all pursing their lips in a serious manner, so he just went out of the room, stretched his hands, and let them take care of the grooming.

Back in the inner room, Shen Xianxun sat on the edge of the bed with her long hair in her hands.Mu Bai stepped forward, and was about to say a few gentle words, but she turned her back and lay down on the jade pillow, without even giving her a look.

Mubai was at a loss, he blew out the candle by himself, pulled the brocade quilt around the two of them, put his arms around her, and apologized first, "Xun'er, but what did I do wrong? Tell me, and I'll change it. "

Xian Xun ignored her and pushed away her hands wrapped around her waist.

How can I let it go at this time! ! !Mu Bai hugged him even tighter regardless.

"If you don't tell me, how will I know what's wrong?" Her breath was warm and fell on her ear.

Xian Xun twisted her body, but didn't unscrew it.Angrily said: "I heard that you are going to marry a side concubine again?"

again? ? ?Marry a side concubine? ? ?

"Which guy is so talkative?!" Mu Bai gritted his teeth!Why did the rumors about the former court come to the harem?

"So, this matter is true?" Xian Xun sneered, and pulled her arm out of her embrace.

"Hey, no, listen to me." Mubai put his hands together and put his whole body on it, and hurriedly said: "This morning, the envoy of Dayan Kingdom came, and at first he spoke well, but later I don’t know why two princesses came out and wanted to be married to Ruiguo. At that time, it was hard to say anything, but when I came to the court, I invited the two prime ministers and several adults to the Book Pavilion to discuss this matter .”

"and then?"

"Then Prime Minister Zuo said that we closed the business route with Shangshan Kingdom. Although their losses were much greater than ours, for our Rui Kingdom, after all, there is also an important economic and trade route missing. Dayan Kingdom The envoys came here this time to fix this shortcoming, and they brought many precious gifts, which can be seen to be very sincere."

"Am I asking about these gifts?" Shen Xianxun said angrily: "I'm asking about those two princesses, the side concubines that Dayan Kingdom gave to you! What are you going to do!"

"I... er... I will never marry. You know, how could I marry a side concubine. I have you." Mu Bai hugged her tightly, the warm body warmed her soft skin On the back, Xian Xun raised his hand and twisted her arm, feeling a little more at ease after all.

Mu Bai bared his teeth, but hugged him even tighter, Xian Xun's body was soft and warm, and she couldn't help but kiss her earlobe lightly.

"I have discussed with several ministers. The princess adopted by the royal family is about the same age as the eldest grandson of Prime Minister You. I have seen that child at the last banquet. The family, the two are a perfect match." Mu Bai's voice was gentle and firm, "After a few days, when the ministers have settled the matter, let Yuan Yu give them a marriage, so that the emperor's favor will also be obtained, and the scenery will be beautiful. There is also, and Dayan Kingdom will not have any objections."

"Then what about the princess of the emperor's family?" Shen Xianxun couldn't help asking after listening to her talk for a long time before she got to the point.

"Princess of the Emperor's family...Princess..." Mu Bai's voice paused, and he said helplessly, "I was going to betroth her to Prime Minister Zuo's youngest son, or to Taishi Sun's grandson, but...but...but minister They all said that this is the biological daughter of the emperor of Dayan Kingdom, and it is necessary to marry a relative of the emperor to balance the matter. So... um... we have been discussing it."

Xian Xun heard Liu Mei gradually frowned, and said coldly: "Has the discussion come to a result?"

"not yet."

"So you still want to marry the side concubine?!"

"no!"

"Let go!" Xian Xun was angry, her voice getting colder.

Mubai was still clinging, and said in a cold voice: "Are you going to let go?"

Mubai had no choice but to reluctantly let go of the arm around her waist, then she blinked and said tentatively: "How about we talk to Sister Huang and let Yun'er marry her?"

"You!" Shen Xianxun couldn't bear it anymore, raised his hand and pointed at her forehead: "Yun'er is not yet ten years old, what are you thinking!"

"If the ministers and workers hadn't said that the emperor must marry a woman from his own country as his wife, I would have wanted Yuan Yu to marry her." Mu Bai knew he was wrong, and muttered sullenly: "Then the Princess of Dayan Kingdom is only 17 years old. Ah, just raise her for two years and then marry."

Shen Xianxun pulled Jinbei up, closed her eyes, and completely ignored her.

The next morning, when the sky was light, Shen Xianxun got up from the bed, Zhou Mubai was so dazed that he couldn't even scream.One day I was dizzy, and I didn't want to read the memorial.

At night, it's even more frustrating!

Siyuan stopped her outside the bedroom!

"Your Highness, the stove has been prepared in the study, and the bedding is already hot. Please move to bed, Your Highness."

"The lonely king doesn't want to sleep in the study!" Zhou Mubai frowned, walked around her to push the door of the sleeping hall.

"My lady said that if His Highness doesn't go to sleep in the study, she will sleep in the study, or let my lady go?" Siyuan was not afraid of her, he opened his hands and cut her down again, giggling and giggling: "Slaves are incompetent." , I think I can't stop His Highness, but I don't know if His Highness can stop my young lady?"

"!!!" Zhou Mubai was robbed by her, but he was speechless.

Knowing that Shen Xianxun must have heard that she was outside in the inner room, but she didn't allow her to go in!Zhou Mubai walked two steps outside the bedroom, really helpless, so he went to the study wearily.

It is true that there is a heater in the study, but is the heater soft enough for Shen Xianxun to hug?The bed is indeed warm and fumigated, but no matter how thick the fumigation is, does it have a sweet, sweet, soft and glutinous fragrance?

The more Zhou Mubai thought about it, the angrier he became, he turned over, and heard the sound of the servant slapping the cloud board from outside the palace wall.

It's three watch!

After three or five days passed like this, gradually approaching the end of the new year, the booklets from all states and counties flew in like snowflakes.Zhou Mubai was busy all day long, and couldn't help sighing secretly, if her father and elder brother were still there, she would be enjoying herself in front of Prince Taiping, fishing with Xian Xun, or having a drink by the fireside.The poor brothers are fighting openly and secretly, but they can't help but God's will, so that she is also trapped here.

Seeing that the envoys of Dayan Kingdom clearly came to pay respects and inquire about the princess's marriage arrangements, she covered her eyes and felt even more headache.

After sending off the envoy, Zhou Mubai called Xiaotuanzi Xiaoguozi, and asked them to escort a few people out of the palace as soon as possible, and told the left and right prime ministers and several important officials to enter the palace to have an audience immediately!

The ministers rushed to the small book pavilion next to the imperial study room, only to see Prince Rui with a sullen face, and Mrs. Shen Youtang sitting in front of the table next to it, with memorials piled up like a mountain.

The ministers and workers looked at each other, the Minister of Rites and the Minister of Hubu both looked at Prime Minister Zuo.The prime minister had no choice but to bow and said: "I don't know what is the important thing for your Highness to invite my ministers to come here?"

Zhou Mubai raised his eyebrows coldly, and asked in a deep voice, "How is the discussion going on about the marriage between the princess of Dayan Kingdom and our dynasty?"

Several ministers looked at each other, then clasped their hands together and said: "Minister, wait, it is still under discussion."

"Deliberate, discuss, discuss! I asked you the other day, you said you were discussing, and today I asked you, you are still discussing, when will you be discussing?"

Prime Minister You took over the marriage of the royal family of Dayan Kingdom for the eldest grandson, thinking that if he could become a relative of Prince Rui, the wealth of his children and grandchildren would be even more immeasurable, so he cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, the princess is For the biological daughter of Emperor Yan Kingdom, the best policy is to accept His Highness as a side concubine, one..."

"Bastard!" Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Mubai was already so angry that he interrupted: "The lonely king has already said that he will never marry a side concubine, so you don't need to say more!"

"Your Highness, calm down." Prime Minister Zuo said tremblingly with sweat on his forehead, "This matter is of great importance. I hope His Highness will give you some time. I will definitely come up with a perfect plan!" Bi Chang bowed to the ground.

Unexpectedly, Prince Rui, who has always been gentle and refined, would rise up against the case and shout angrily: "Grace time? The lonely king has already slept in the study for six days!! It will be the New Year's Eve in less than ten days, you want to let the lonely king stay Is the New Year in the study!!! The Lonely King will give you three days! If you can’t think of a solution within three days, next year you will all live in your own study!!!”

The author has something to say: It's been a long time.There are a lot of things coming back from the annual vacation, more tonight!Happy New Year, friends, good luck!
