Seeing them, the woman stepped back and saluted, with a melodious voice: "Concubine Shen Ruqing greets His Majesty and Empress."

"Excuse me." Xiao Yulan said calmly with her hands behind her back.

Luo Wenge didn't speak, but remembered Xiao Yulan's explanation in his heart, and when he met Shen Ruqing's Yingying gaze, he slightly bent his eyes and barely nodded, as a greeting.

Xiao Yulan deliberately slowed down her pace, letting Shen Ruqing walk two steps behind on the right, and said casually, "Going to greet the Queen Mother?"

"Yes, this concubine is fortunate to be favored by the Empress Dowager and serve you." Shen Ruqing's cheeks were pink, and she peeked at Xiao Yulan shyly and timidly from time to time, showing a look of spring in her heart.

Xiao Yulan didn't seem to be aware of it: "The queen mother likes you, so go more often."

"The concubine obeys the order." Shen Ruqing's voice sounded very excited, and her eyes fell on Luo Wenge unexpectedly, and she asked curiously, "What's wrong with the empress? She covered her face with a gauze and was dressed so heavily, but she was not feeling well? The concubine has Dejitang's special pills for recuperating the body, would you like to try it?"

"She has an old problem, if she takes more care and rest for a while, she will recover without treatment." Xiao Yulan said.

Shen Ruqing was slightly startled, as if she didn't expect to be answered by Xiao Yulan when she asked Luo Wenge, her expression was lonely for a moment.

"Your Majesty really cares about the Empress's affairs, which makes my concubines envious."

Xiao Yulan's hand holding the beads paused, looking at Shen Ruqing with some incomprehensible meaning: "Well, since we met today, and you know that he is not in good health, don't bother him all the time with the excuse of asking for your safety."

Shen Ruqing squeezed the embroidered handkerchief tightly, this dog emperor!She barely held back her anger, pretended to be gentle and said: "The concubine has made a note."

Shen Ruqing raised her eyes and looked at Luo Wenge, whose eyes couldn't melt into a smile, for a moment, her lungs were about to explode, she was so weak that she couldn't take care of herself!

Luo Wenge couldn't open his mouth due to suffering, so he let Xiao Yulan say, judging from Shen Ruqing's eyes just now, this woman must hate him, and troubles will inevitably follow.

Thinking of this, Luo Wenge wanted to remind Xiao Yulan. Considering his situation, he had no choice but to give a reminder when he was turning a corner. He wanted to take Xiao Yulan's hand, but before the hand arrived, he was expected people catch.

His eyes widened slightly, and he wanted to withdraw his hand, but the other party didn't let go, so he turned his head and looked over: let go.

Xiao Yulan glanced at him coldly: You did it first.

Luo Wenge didn't care about this with Xiao Yulan, raised his chin lightly, and winked at Shen Ruqing: Be careful of her.

The moment Xiao Yulan understood his eyes, she spontaneously let go of her hand, pursed her lips and kept a straight face, as if she hadn't overreacted just now.

Luo Wenge rubbed his wrists, frowned, raised his eyes suddenly, and met Shen Ruqing's eyes with hatred, he sighed to himself, good girl, if you say poison, you will be poisoned.

Pedestrians have different thoughts to the Longevity Hall.

The Empress Dowager was also a famous beauty in Changle City when she was young. Although she is over forty now, she is still undeniably elegant, elegant and dignified. When she saw the three of them coming, she sat at the table calmly: "Here you come? Don't salute today, sit down Let's have breakfast with Mourning's family."

Xiao Yulan and Luo Wenge sat down with the guidance of the maid, while Shen Ruqing over there sat beside the Queen Mother, and said softly: "Queen Mother, I got up early and made your favorite steamed buns with my own hands, and replaced them with the ones you said that day. Stuffing, today I have to taste whether it is delicious, if it is delicious, I will often make it to honor you."

"You little girl is always thinking about Aijia." The Empress Dowager smiled gently, and looked at Xiao Yulan, "With such a good skill, His Majesty should try it."

With a shy face, Shen Ruqing lowered her head and said softly, "Yes."

Seeing Xiao Yulan's immobile appearance, the Queen Mother shook her head secretly, then went to look at Luo Wenge, her eyes full of love: "Jin Yuan is sick again?"

Luo Wenge nodded, pointed at his throat and waved his hands. With Zooey's support, he stood up and made an apology to the Queen Mother.

The empress dowager's face was full of distress: "You child, you are not feeling well and are recuperating in the palace. The messenger said yes, why bother to come here in person? Didn't the Aijia see you in such a sick state on purpose to make the Aijia feel distressed? "

Luo Wenge's eyes were stained with tears, I felt pity for him, and seeing that he was about to get up again, the queen mother hurriedly said: "The Ai family knows that you want to say that etiquette cannot be broken, so just sit down."

With the words of the Queen Mother, Luo Wenge sat firmly again.

The Empress Dowager wiped the corners of her eyes and asked, "May the Emperor have the imperial doctor show it to Jin Yuan?"

"The imperial doctor said that it was a relapse of the old disease, so it's good to have a baby, and it may be much better when the spring is warm." Xiao Yulan replied.

The Empress Dowager felt relieved, and said: "Jinyuan wants to rest, the Emperor has nothing to do to go to Ruqing's place, she is also Lan Xinhui's good child."

Xiao Yulan nodded: "I know."

The queen mother smiled.

Seeing this, Tao Bi, the female official in charge of the affairs of the Longevity Palace over there, ordered the maid to serve breakfast in a low voice.

The royal family pays attention to the food without saying a word, except for the occasional crisp sound of silver chopsticks colliding with dishes on the table, there is no noise.

Because Luo Wenge was wearing a veil, he hardly ate much. When the Queen Mother stopped chopsticks, he followed and stopped.

At this time, Shen Ruqing said with concern on her face: "Is the queen's appetite not good? The concubine knows the appetizers, so I will prepare them and send them to the empress?"

Luo Wenge frowned, and kicked Xiao Yulan with his long legs hidden under the table.

Xiao Yulan was as steady as a rock, but she still helped him out: "Your concubine, you don't have to worry about it. His appetite has never been as big as a cat's. The imperial doctor also said that he needs to eat less and more frequently."

It was Xiao Yulan who took the initiative to answer again, and Shen Ruqing felt that she looked like an idiot. Thinking that the queen mother was still there, she lowered her eyes and raised her eyes, her eyes turned red with grievance.

Seeing this scene, the Empress Dowager saw a few gleams of light in her eyes, stirring up the mud: "The Ai family has been exhausted for the past few days. If there is nothing else, let's go."

Shen Ruqing secretly gritted her teeth, and understood that the courtship of the past few days was in vain. No matter how much effort she made, the Queen Mother's heart was always towards those two. .

"My son will leave." Xiao Yulan followed the trend.

Luo Wenge saluted gracefully, and was supported by Zooey to follow Xiao Yulan's pace, and left the Longevity Hall without any surprise or danger.

Seeing that both of them had left, Shen Ruqing had no need to stay any longer, so she followed suit.

When the Hall of Longevity returned to its former desertedness, the Queen Mother reached out, and Taobi stepped forward to help her up, walked to the door, and watched the two rows of battles drifting away from afar.

The Empress Dowager spoke calmly: "Taobi, do you think the Empress Dowager is much more agile today?"

Thinking of the scene under the table just now, Taobi hesitated and said, "Yes."

"Next time I ask Ai's family, don't hesitate." The queen mother said, "Since the emperor brought him to pay his respects in front of Ai's family, it means that he is the queen. Do you understand?"

"Your servant understands." Taobi bowed her head respectfully.

All the questions about the queen were buried in my heart, so I didn't think about it anymore.

Looking at Shen Ruqing who was walking a few steps behind Xiao Yulan, the dowager closed her eyes to cover the light, and said a little ruthlessly: "Pay more attention to the Xuanyi Hall, the Ai family does not want to hear the gossip of the empress being harassed by others."

"Yes." Taobi replied.

The Empress Dowager slightly raised her face, looked at the gray sky that never sees the sun, and murmured softly: "It is indeed the emperor you taught, who is almost as virtuous as you."

Returning to Fengqi Palace, Luo Wenge dismissed the maids and eunuchs, closed the door, took off the queen's regular clothes, and changed into her own clothes. After going out of the palace later, she had to go back to the manor to change into court clothes before going to court, and it would be too late if she didn't hurry up.

Just as he took off his obscene clothes, a man fell silently from the beam, put the burden on the table, knelt behind Luo Wenge, and said in a low voice, "My lord, your official uniform."

Luo Wen singer trembled, his soul was scared away halfway, he clutched his heart and turned around to see the black figure kneeling on the ground, with lingering fear in his heart, he trembled continuously: "I wasn't killed by Xiao Yulan, I was almost scared to death by his people."

Shadow Guard silently shadowed in the darkness again.

Luo Wenge untied the bag, and inside it was indeed the official uniform of the Shaoqing of Dali Temple.He touched the black gauze hat, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and he quickly turned around to tidy up and went up.

In the court hall, Luo Wenge dozed off among the many courtiers with lowered brows, totally unaware of what was being said in front of him.

Xiao Yulan's wrist was resting on the dragon's head, she had no expression on her face, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites, who were blushing and thick-necked, looked more and more indifferent as they watched the feudal princes come to Beijing to arrange the same residence or to monitor things separately.

Chief Assistant Shen Jue and Zhenbei General Xu Yingping stood on both sides, silently, as if the matter had nothing to do with them.

The two have always been at odds, like fire and water born of heaven and earth, talking and laughing openly, and tit for tat secretly.

Xiao Yulan really didn't get used to living in such a harmonious way today.

He wants to do something when he is not used to it.

Xiao Yulan sat up straight slowly, and coughed lightly, not loudly, but silenced the two officials who were arguing.

Xiao Yulan lazily said: "Shut up, say something useless, and get the hell out of here."

The two were so frightened that they fell to their knees, not daring to speak.

Xiao Yulan looked at Shen Jue with kind eyebrows and kind eyes: "What does Mr. Shen Ge think about this matter, can you give me an answer?"

Shen Jue took two steps forward slowly, bowed his head and lowered his head: "The old minister thinks it's better to arrange the residence separately."

"Oh?" Xiao Yulan raised her eyebrows, as if she couldn't make up her mind, she went to look at Xu Yingping again, "What does the general think?"

Xu Yingping, who was named, strode forward and said angrily: "I think it's okay to arrange it somewhere. Although the four of them fought side by side and are familiar with each other, that was in the past. Now that His Majesty is the emperor, they know clearly in their hearts. To whom should one pledge allegiance?"

"The general's words are wrong." Shen Jue said, "It is necessary to guard against others, how can the general ensure that their hearts are for your majesty?"

"Then how can Elder Shen Ge be sure that they have evil intentions in going to Beijing?" Xu Yingping asked with a serious face.

"There is a lesson from the past—" Shen Jue subconsciously looked at Xiao Yulan before finishing his sentence.

Xiao Yulan's expression was slightly cold, and her displeasure could be heard in her tone: "Then I will listen to Mr. Shen Ge, and the Ministry of Rites will make arrangements."

"Yes." The Minister of Rites replied in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, I would like to recommend Luo Wenge, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, as the reception envoy for the vassal king." Xu Yingping said suddenly.

The eyes of the court officials, including Xiao Yulan, all fell on Luo Wenge, whose eyes were still unclear.

Luo Wenge suddenly came back to his senses, what did Xu Yingping mean? !
