recently

A major event happened in the court and the harem respectively.

In the middle of the court, Yan Liusheng, the deputy general of the Shangyang Army, was ordered to be beheaded because his words and deeds insulted the face of the royal family.

However, Yan Liusheng's specific crimes were not clearly stated, which caused a lot of discussion among the courtiers. In view of the earlier incident between Yan Liusheng and the current empress, although the courtiers had speculations, they did not dare to say more.

In the harem, the queen offended Shengyan for some reason, and was placed under house arrest in Zhengyang Palace, and she was not allowed to leave without purpose.

As soon as the imperial decree came out, another political turmoil was set off in the front court and the rear palace.

Vice General Yan and the empress of the current dynasty were convicted and punished one after another, which made the courtiers who hadn't thought about it before all suspicious.

It is not surprising that if he dared to rob the emperor for a woman, he would end up like this.Not being implicated is considered a special kindness.

However, this has become another secret history of the palace that the officials joked about in private, and everyone is more concerned about the emptiness of the harem.

Those who had previously advised the emperor to choose a concubine, and those who tried to take advantage of it, seemed to see new hope.

The only woman in the harem, the empress was placed under house arrest, which indicated that she would soon fall out of favor, and the harem became truly empty.

This time, even the queen mother was dispatched.

The empress dowager was the empress of the previous dynasty, and Helian Duanyan became the empress dowager, so she was respected as the empress dowager.

The queen mother did not have a prince, but only a princess, who was only one year older than Helian Xuanji.

Xu Shi did not have the opportunity to participate in the competition for the emperor's heir, so when Helian Duanyan was still the prince, he treated her fairly well.

On this day, the Empress Dowager ordered the emperor to move to Kunning Palace for dinner.

Helian Duanyan was also well aware of the real intention behind the name of the meal, but she went nonetheless.

"The Son Sees His Mother"

"The emperor is here, sit down quickly," the queen mother signaled Helian Duanyan to sit down, "It's just right, lunch will be available soon."

Helian Duanyan sat down directly opposite the Queen Mother, "Why don't you see Xuanqing?".

Helian Xuanqing is the princess born of the Empress Dowager, who was given the title "Princess Miaoqing" by the late emperor.

"Oh, Ai's family has sent someone to call her, so there's no need to wait for her, let's have dinner first," said the Queen Mother.

Helian Duanyan didn't say any more, and started to eat while holding the chopsticks, and the queen mother brought her vegetables from time to time.

Helian Duanyan knew that the Queen Mother had been watching her, but just pretended not to know, and waited for the Queen Mother to speak.

Sure enough, "The emperor seems to have lost a lot of weight, but the state affairs are too busy?" The queen mother asked with concern.

"Fair", Helian Duanyan answered very simply.

This made the Empress Dowager a little unsure of how to proceed, so she paused for a while before continuing.

"The emperor is busy with everything, and he needs someone to take good care of him."

Finally got to the point!Helian Duanyan looked up at the Queen Mother, and said unhurriedly

"There are many maids serving in the son's palace."

Hearing this, the queen mother couldn't help laughing, "That's not the same, Aijia said that he would be considerate of the emperor's confidant pillow."

Helian Duanyan put down the chopsticks in his hand, but didn't say anything.

The Empress Dowager watched Helian Duanyan's face carefully, "If the emperor is busy with state affairs, let the Ai family handle them."

Helian Duanyan raised his eyes to look at the queen mother, "There is a queen mother, if the son has someone he likes, he will definitely come and tell the queen mother."

Having said this, the Empress Dowager also knew that it would be useless to say any more, if she was careless, she might offend Shengyan.

"Okay, everything is according to the emperor's wishes. Come, the emperor will eat some more. These are the emperor's favorite foods."

At this moment, Princess Miaoqing Helian Xuanqing finally arrived late.

"Miao Qing met the emperor's brother and mother's queen"

"There's no need to be too polite," Helian Duanyan said lightly, "Come and have dinner together."

He Lian Xuanqing immediately sat down next to the queen mother, He Lian Xuanqing was calm and introverted, she was a gentle and quiet princess.

"You, don't always lead Xuanji to study and play chess together. You two are not young anymore, especially you, who is one year older than Xuanji. It's time for the emperor to show you a marriage."

Helian Duanyan didn't intend to interrupt at first, but when he heard the queen mother's words, he didn't say anything, so he looked at Helianxuan and said clearly

"Qing'er has someone he likes, if so, Brother Huang will make the decision for you."

After all, it was her daughter's family, Helian Xuanqing couldn't help showing her daughter's coquettish attitude when asked by Helian Duanyan.

It was the Empress Dowager who spoke up for He Lianxuan, "Look at you, the commander of the forbidden army, Lisi, is not bad."

Hearing this, Helian Duanyan couldn't help being stunned for a moment, "Li Si?".

Helian Duanyan was quite satisfied with the Queen Mother's expression, and couldn't help but look at Helian Xuanqing, whose reddish face seemed to have been intentional for a long time.

"But he already has a marriage contract," Helian Duanyan said calmly.

"Oh? Already engaged?"

The queen mother took a look at Helian Xuanqing who was somewhat disappointed, then smiled and said to Helian Duanyan:

"This is not an important issue. It is common for men to have three wives and four concubines."

"..."

After coming out of Kunning Palace, Helian Duanyan looked at Li Si with a rather strange look from time to time, and finally stopped directly, stared at Li Si for a while, "When did you hook up? Xuanqing's."

"..."

Li Si was also confused by Helian Duanyan's inexplicable question, and had no idea what she meant.

Helian Duanyan looked at Li Si like this, and was so angry that he really didn't know what to say.

"I mean, what have you done to Xuanqing, how did you make her fall in love with you?"

What the hell, Li Si followed Helian Duanyan for so long before, and Helian Xuanqing didn't see him falling in love with him!

"Li Si didn't do anything to Princess Miao Qing," Li Si replied very seriously.

He Lian Duanyan looked at the person in front of him, thinking about it, just like Li Si, who didn't say a few words for a long time, could do something provocative, but why would Xuanqing...

"Could it be that all the girls nowadays like a dull man like you?" Helian Duanyan suddenly said to himself.

Seeing Li Si frowning there, looking serious, Helian Duanyan couldn't help saying

"Don't worry about it there, I've blocked it for you"

Seeing that Li Si seemed relieved, Helian Duanyan continued to say something

"But the queen mother said that it is common for this man to have three wives and four concubines, so"

Helian Duanyan suddenly stared at Li Si's eyes very seriously and said, "How to make Xuan Qing completely die of this heart, you have to rely on yourself."

After finishing speaking, Helian Duanyan turned around and continued to walk forward. After walking a few steps, she suddenly stopped, but she didn't look back.

"The person Yuyin entrusts to in the future must treat her wholeheartedly"

When Lisi walked into Yunyan Palace, Yuyin was playing chess alone in the courtyard.

Ever since Helian Duanyan was established as the Crown Prince, Yuyin has been living in this Yunyan Palace.

One person, one cup of tea, one game of chess, under the late summer sunshine, everything seemed quiet and indifferent.

The beauty suddenly raised her head, her red lips parted slightly, and said lightly

"Come on, sit down"

Li Si walked to the seat opposite Yuyin and sat down, seeing that the tea in front of him was still steaming.

"It's been a long time since we played chess together, let's have a game," Yuyin said suddenly.

As long as Yuyin has something to say to him, she will invite him to play chess together.Even though Li Si knew about it, he still didn't say anything, and went straight to pick up Hei Zi.

"Princess Miao Qing is a nice woman," Yuyin said suddenly.

Li Siluo's movements paused, and she couldn't help looking up at Yuyin, and Yuyin also looked up at him, her eyes were calm.

Li Si couldn't help but look away, "The princess is very good, but it's not what Li Si wanted."

Yuyin dropped the white stones in her hand, instantly trapping a large group of sunspots in Lisi to death.

"In life, we ask for a lot, but not all of them come true"

After a short period of silence, Yuyin raised her head and looked at Li Si who had been watching her.

"I'm different from you"

Yuyin knew what Li Si wanted to say, and the same words were suitable for her.

Yuyin put down the chess pieces in her hand, got up and walked outside Yunyan Palace, walked about a foot away, suddenly turned her back to Li Si and said

"You and I have no destiny in this life"

Seeing Li Si who led the order out of the hall, Helian Duanyan frowned slightly, then turned to look at Yuyin who was leaning sideways on the couch reading a book.

"Li Si doesn't look right"

"..."

Yuyin acted as if she hadn't heard it, her eyes didn't move away from the scroll in her hand for a moment.

Helian Duanyan was also not displeased, and continued, "Although he has always had such a cold face, he can still feel that his mood is not very high."

This time Yuyin finally spoke, but what she said left Helian Duanyan speechless.

"If you are in high spirits every day, then ask me to give you a few needles."

The book in Yuyin's hand blocked her face, so Helian Duanyan couldn't see her expression, so she got up and walked over.

"Did Yuyin tell him something?"

Yuyin finally looked up at Helian Duanyan, "I have no enmity with him, so I can talk."

"...", Helian Duanyan was a little helpless, "Why does Yuyin always speak without picking the point?"

Yuyin looked away from the hand scroll, and looked sideways at Helian Duanyan who was sitting on the other side.

"The point of the master is"

"How did you tell him about Xuanqing?"

"Princess Miao Qing is a nice woman"

Hearing this, Helian Duanyan frowned, "Are you trying to match him with Xuanqing?!".

Although he had expected this to happen, Helian Duanyan still didn't want to believe it.

Yuyin replied lightly, "Yuyin is not like a master, she has no hobby of being a matchmaker, she just told him the truth."

Helian Duanyan was speechless, "No wonder he is like this! Yuyin knows that his heart is for you, but you still say that, it's strange if you don't hurt him."

Yuyin just looked at Helian Duanyan, didn't speak, and then looked away.

Helian Duanyan sighed slightly, "Yuyin, Li Si is reliable."

"Why do you have to embarrass Yuyin when you can't even do it?" Yuyin interrupted suddenly.

The two looked at each other, and before Helian Duanyan could say anything, he was immediately blocked back.

indeed

As far as Helian Duanyan is concerned, Yuyin is also a reliable person, and her heart is attached to her, but she has not let her down...

That being the case, what qualifications does she have to advise Yuyin on what to do?

Looking at Helian Duanyan who was suddenly silent, Yuyin turned her hand and put down the scroll in her hand, her eyes turned, with a hint of teasing, she looked at Helian Duanyan and said

"Isn't it because I'm afraid that Yuyin will depend on my master?"

Helian Duanyan was taken aback for a moment, and said in embarrassment, "Yuyin was joking, how could that be?"

Yuyin sighed silently in her heart, but there was no wave on her face, and there was still a slight smile on her face.

"Since that's the case, I won't have to be the matchmaker for Yuyin in the future. Isn't it a joke to be the king of a country?"

"..."

"Yuyin won't want me to marry Yuyin, so I don't want Yuyin to marry anyone either."

Helian Duanyan looked at Yuyin's indifferent but serious eyes, and finally nodded.

Like a hallucination, Helian Duanyan looked at Yuyin with a rare long smile.

"By the way, the envoys of the Mo country will come to Beijing in a few days, who is going to welcome them?"

At the beginning

Princess Namo once said that when Helian Duanyan became emperor, she would go to Jinling in person to seal the alliance between the two countries.

now

The people are finally coming, and Helian Duanyan is really curious about this princess of the Mo country, curious that she can be so blunt and conclude that it will be her, Helian Duanyan, who ascends to the supreme position in the future...

three days later

The mission of the Mo State entered the Jinling City, and Helian Duanyan ordered Hong Wang Helian Duanyan to welcome it on his behalf.

Helian Duanyan welcomed the group into Jinling, and the intention of the merger was to arrange everyone in the West Garden of the Imperial Palace.

This time the Mo country mission came to Beijing, headed by Prince Chu Tian, ​​accompanied by Princess Chu Xuewu, and officials from the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War.

Helian Duanyan is scheduled to hold a state banquet in the Fengtian Hall at [-]:[-] on the same day, and welcomes the delegation from the Mo Kingdom.

"Long Live My Emperor Long Live Long Live"

Although Helian Duanyan is still not used to such a scene, but compared to the beginning, he has adapted a lot.

"Peace for all the nobles"

"Congratulations to His Majesty Yan Kingdom for the future", Prince Chutian suddenly led the envoys of the Mo Kingdom to salute Helian Duanyan, who lived above him.

"The prince and the princess worked hard all the way"

Surprisingly, Helian Duanyan only saw the prince Chutian, but not the princess Chu Xuewu of Mo Kingdom.

The state banquet began, and the sound of singing and dancing also sounded.

"Chu Tian respects Your Majesty," Chu Tian suddenly picked up the wine glass and stood up.

Helian Duanyan didn't say much, raised his wine glass as a gesture, and then drank it down in one gulp.

When entering, it was as pale as white water, Helian Duanyan looked at the wine glass and smiled helplessly, Yuyin had replaced all her wine with white water in advance.

Looking up at Chu Tian, ​​the crown prince of Mo Kingdom who was sitting, Helian Duanyan not only showed some admiration in his eyes.

Although he is only 12 years old, he is mature and stable beyond his age. Even in the face of such a situation, he can be neither afraid nor overbearing, polite and polite, but it is not easy.

After finishing the dance, Chu Tian suddenly stood up and said to Helian Duanyan:

"Your Majesty, the princess of Mo Kingdom will perform a dance for you next."

With the melodious sound of silk and bamboo, Helian Duanyan raised his head, and saw six women in white, surrounded by a fiery red woman with a light veil, floating in from outside the hall.

Helian Duanyan, who was originally not interested, suddenly shrank his pupils after making brief eye contact with the woman in red.

Black silk and ink dyed, charming red shirt, long sleeves fluttering, surrounded by pure white as snow, the most coquettish and eye-catching flowers bloomed in an instant.

Then, the surrounding women in white moved lightly with lotus steps, and the woman in red danced out of it like a butterfly emerging from a chrysalis.

It seems that the red leaves falling leisurely in this autumn are spinning and jumping in the air, with a slender waist, a graceful figure, and eyes like autumn water, looking forward to shine.

Such a dancing posture, such a captivating gesture, even if it is just a quick glance, it will be engraved in a corner of my heart.

Pointing to the toes, the beauty jumped into the air, and under the rain of red flowers, she spun around, looked back, and landed silently.

The beauty folded her hands on her chest, "I have seen His Majesty Yan Guo", after saying that, she raised her head, and the red gauze also slowly fell down.

Butterflies dance gracefully, break out of cocoons and become butterflies.
