Wan Yu saw that Ming Chengdi's eyes were fixed on the food in front of her, and the corner of her mouth slightly twitched.

Unlucky boy, he didn't eat or drink for a whole day and night, and it's no wonder that he doesn't drool when he sees the food that suits his appetite.As if she couldn't see that Emperor Ming Cheng was greedy, she ate to herself and asked Emperor Ming Cheng, "Why do you prefer to find the late emperor instead of Ai's family when you have troubles?" No matter how capable the late emperor is, he is also a deceased person. , how can I help?

Wan Yu was worried that Emperor Ming Cheng had begun to separate from her.In the past, the emperor would tell her what was on his mind, but this time it was different.

Emperor Ming Cheng sat cross-legged on the futon next to Wan Yu and sighed: "These things are caused by the eunuchs. What can I say to the queen mother? Isn't the queen mother also with that eunuch named Yao Xi... Sigh !"

Wan Yu doesn't like to hear this.She can understand that the emperor took his anger out on the eunuchs, but can her affairs be the same as those concubines in the dirty palace?She was very well behaved when the late emperor was still alive.Not to mention that her little Yaozi, the fake eunuch, is completely different from those fake eunuchs.

With Wan Yu's temper, she would usually push back at this time.But she looked at the haggard look of the emperor with reddened eyes, and felt distressed, so she said in a soft tone: "The emperor should be glad that he found out about this in time. Besides, you don't have many concubines, so you need to find out whether they are It's not difficult to be innocent. Leave the affairs of the harem to Aijia, and you can handle political affairs with peace of mind."

"It's not just concubines. What makes me most sad is that even the empress doesn't obey women's ways." Emperor Ming Cheng sighed: "I was a king in vain, but as a man, I failed completely."

Wan Yu stopped chopsticks, stretched out her hand to hold Emperor Ming Cheng's hand distressedly, and said, "It's not the emperor's fault." This was the first time she took the initiative to hold Emperor Ming Cheng's hand. In the past, when Emperor Ming Cheng wanted to shake her, she would Dodge in disgust.

Emperor Ming Cheng held Wan Yu's little hand back in a low mood.Whenever something happens to him, only Wan Yu is always standing by his side.The mother and concubine still had the intention to use him, but Wan Yu didn't. She just stood beside him without hesitation, and went through the wind and rain together.

"The queen's affairs may also be framed by someone." Although Wan Yu felt that Feng Xin did not appear to be from the emperor, the rumors about the queen spread wildly at this juncture, which made people suspicious: "There was just a fake in the palace. Regarding the eunuch matter, there are rumors in the market that the queen had an affair with a fake eunuch and gave birth to Feng Xin. Doesn't the emperor think it's a coincidence?"

Emperor Ming Cheng smiled wryly and said, "It's a coincidence. But what's even more coincidental is that a eunuch really disappeared from the Queen's Palace."

"Many people have gone missing in the palace. You can ask the empress about this and see what she says. Even if the empress really did something wrong to the emperor, the emperor would not want to spoil himself like this. You are still young, no matter what you do in the future There is no shortage of women or heirs." Wan Yu patted the emperor on the shoulder and said.

"The Queen Mother doesn't understand. The only woman I want to be with would rather die than be touched by me." Emperor Ming Cheng looked at the food in front of Wan Yu again, and his stomach growled twice.

"Lan Guiren?" Wan Yu tried hard to restrain the urge to speak ill of Lan Guiren in front of the emperor.Lan Guiren is also Yao Xi's older sister, so she has to be merciful.

"Yes." Emperor Ming Cheng nodded slightly.

Wan Yu didn't quite understand: "Why?" She always thought Lan Guiren was a little goblin who bewitched the Sacred Heart, but she was surprised when the emperor said that.Lan Guiren tried every means to get out of the cold palace, why didn't he want to serve the emperor?

"She dislikes that I have met other women." Emperor Ming Cheng pointed to the food in front of Wan Yu and said, "I am hungry. Give me something to eat."

"Ai's family didn't bring any extra chopsticks." Seeing that Emperor Ming Cheng wanted to eat, Wan Yu persuaded with relief, "Go out to eat when you're hungry! The good meal has been passed on."

"It's okay. Just make do with something to eat, I still want to stay here for a while." Emperor Ming Cheng reached out to take the plate from Wan Yu's arms, and grabbed the chopsticks to eat.Wan Yu stretched out her hand to stop him and said, "The chopsticks are used by Ai's family. Wait a moment, Ai's family ordered someone to bring in a new pair."

"I don't dislike it." Emperor Ming Cheng began to pick up vegetables to eat.

Wan Yu felt a little uncomfortable.Although she may regard Emperor Ming Cheng as her son, she is not her own son after all, and it still makes her feel uncomfortable to be eaten by her stepson with her own chopsticks.But seeing that the starving Emperor Ming Cheng was eating so deliciously, she couldn't say anything, so she took out a handkerchief from her cuff and handed it to Emperor Ming Cheng, "You don't look good when you eat it. Wipe your mouth quickly."

"En." Emperor Ming Cheng took the veil and wiped his mouth and said, "Thank you Queen Mother." The food Wan Yu brought was his favorite food. Although Wan Yu said it was for himself, in his heart It was very clear that Wan Yu was afraid that he would be hungry.

"It's Lan Guiren's idea that Ai's family came to clean up the palace, she still cares about the emperor." Seeing the emperor's suddenly relaxed brows, Wan Yu felt a little sour in her heart.The emperor and Lan Guiren are really like her and the first emperor, one of them is wishful thinking.And this kind of relationship often doesn't work out.

"I know." Ming Chengdi smiled sadly with downcast eyes when he remembered his first encounter with Lan Guiren when he was young.He didn't blame Lan Guiren for despising him, she was a high-minded woman since she was a child, how could she be willing to share a man with others? "The matter of Shou Gongsha is because I am sorry for the Queen Mother."

"Then ask Aijia Shengmu to listen later." Wan Yu knelt on the futon, smiling as he watched Ming Chengdi eat.

Emperor Ming Cheng looked up at Wan Yu's expectant cute look, and called her softly, "Mother's queen."

"Ai's family didn't hear clearly..." Wan Yu actually had tears in her eyes.She had been looking forward to this moment for a long time, but suddenly she was at a loss when she heard the emperor calling her.

"Stupid girl." Emperor Ming Cheng smiled, no matter what, he didn't want to call him a second time.

"Dry son." Wan Yu stretched out her hand to straighten the broken hair on Li Mingcheng's forehead, looked into his eyes affectionately and said, "You really regard Ai's family as your mother's queen, right?"

"I sincerely treat the Queen Mother as my family." Emperor Ming Cheng finished his last bite of food, wiped his mouth with Wan Yu's handkerchief, and said, "I have already sent someone to investigate the assassin who entered the Longyi Palace. Don't worry, the Queen Mother dares to treat the Queen Mother." I will not let anyone who wants to kill me go." Including Zhu Xiangchang, the head of state.The queen mother only said to copy Zhu's family, but he felt that it was far from enough.

Wan Yu could see that the emperor really cared about her, as if she had gained extra for self-protection all these years, and that gain was the emperor's sincerity.It's really strange that she treats people more hypocritically than sincerely, but she always gains sincerity.And if others are sincere to her, she will put away the hypocrisy and exchange hearts for hearts.

***

The Empress Dowager went to Huiling Hall, and Yao Shuanglan finally had a chance to talk to her younger brother.

Ying'er Fu'er and many other court ladies and eunuchs were not allowed to serve in the dining room, and right now there were only her, her younger brother and Eunuch Tang in the dining room, all of them from her own family.

Yao Shuanglan walked to Yao Xi's side and said in a low voice, "I'll take you out of the palace tonight." My younger brother was supposed to leave the palace last time, but unexpectedly an assassin entered the Queen Mother's palace, which delayed the matter.The Empress Dowager does not watch the boat races or plant willows during the Dragon Boat Festival. During the day, the Empress Dowager is inseparable from her younger brother, and only secretly sends him out of the palace at night.

Yao Xi didn't expect Lan Guiren to mention this suddenly. She secretly pointed to Eunuch Tang who was looking in the direction of Huiling Hall, and said in a low voice, "It's not convenient to talk here." Eunuch Tang seemed to have heard something, and suddenly Walking outside, she and Lan Guiren were the only ones left in the dining room.

"If you don't say it now, you won't have a chance. Ah Xian, you can go to Longyi Palace tonight after the Queen Mother sleeps!" Yao Shuanglan saw that Eunuch Tang took the initiative to avoid giving her siblings a chance to talk, so her voice became louder. Some.

"..." Yao Xi didn't want to leave the empress dowager, she didn't want to go out of the palace, so she would be careful not to cause trouble for the Yao family. "I can't leave. Because... I have to wait on the bed..." Yao Xi said hesitantly.It's not that she can't leave, she just wants to find an excuse to refuse Lan Guiren's kindness.Obviously she had asked Mrs. Lan to send her out of the palace before, but after a while, she changed her mind.Even if she really wanted to die, she still wanted to die by the empress dowager's side.

"Servant?" Yao Shuanglan suddenly felt very uncomfortable. My younger brother must have been humiliated by being the favorite of the empress dowager! "It's all my sister's incompetence, I've wronged you."

Yao Xi felt a little embarrassed.In fact, she doesn't feel wronged at all by the empress dowager's side, she quite enjoys the feeling of serving the empress dowager.

"My sister will definitely find a way to send you out." Yao Shuanglan looked at Yao Xi firmly and said.

Yao Xi smiled apologetically.Even if Lan Guiren sent her away, she would not leave. She was even thinking, should she tell Lan Guiren that she is not Yao Xian?She still didn't dare, she was now sandwiched between Lan Guiren and the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager's feelings for her were unclear, she didn't dare to offend Lan Guiren, and she didn't know how to explain Young Master Yao's whereabouts.She could also imagine how sad Lan Guiren would be when she learned of her brother's death. She didn't have the courage to uncover the scar with her own hands.

Not long after talking with Lady Lan, the Empress Dowager returned with an empty plate.

As soon as Wan Yu entered the dining hall, she saw Yao Xi and Lan Guiren standing next to each other. When they saw her come back, they quickly distanced themselves.It seems that the two sisters have talked, but I don't know if Lan Guiren has spoken ill of her in front of Yao Xi.

"Xiao Yaozi. Go back to the palace." Wan Yu put down the empty plate and looked at nobleman Lan with a complicated expression.Lan Guiren doesn't want to sleep in?Why?

Yao Xi hurried forward to help the Empress Dowager.

After returning from the Qianqing Palace, Wan Yu ordered someone to investigate the Empress Zhu's family, and arranged the rituals for the concubines of the palace during the Dragon Boat Festival.She also prepared another generous dowry for Longyi, and planned to tell Longyi that this was a gift she received recently, and she would give it to her as a dowry.With Longyi's stupid temper, he will definitely be moved again.

Busy until nightfall, Wan Yu sneaked into the warm pavilion after taking a bath, and Yao Xi was sitting at the small table writing the gift list for her.

Seeing the Empress Dowager coming in, Yao Xi quickly put down his pen and stood up to salute: "My Lady."

"Don't be too busy." Wan Yu said with a smile as she walked towards the Nuan Pavilion, "Let's serve the bed!"

"The day after tomorrow will be the Dragon Boat Festival..." Yao Xi stepped back vigilantly.Sure enough, she served so well that the empress dowager, who has never been human, became addicted to that kind of thing. She should keep some of it.

"Is there still time to make the gift list tomorrow?" Wan Yu smiled meaningfully.
