A kitten dressed as an empress

The weather was getting colder, and the dense fog in the palace hadn't disappeared in the morning, and the guards lined up were patrolling the palace road.

The ministers who entered the palace one by one were all discussing a strange thing, the current Minister of Officials, Xie Min's mansion has received a dozen or so young gentlemen, and recently they even wanted to marry a daughter from your family.

In the early court, Zhao Yao specially rewarded countless gold, silver and jewels for this marriage. Although the ministers had their own criticisms, no one dared to step forward.

A few days later for the big wedding, Xie Min sent people to distribute money and watch the common people. During the wedding banquet, tens of thousands of family fortunes were scattered.

Su Hao sat by the window of the side room of the teahouse and looked at it: "This marriage is really strange."

"Strange?" Qin Yuan poured the tea, his eyes fell on the common people who were busy collecting wedding money, "Xie Min has military achievements, and now he is valued by the Empress, this scene is not an exaggeration."

"Marriage between women is a strange thing. Xie Min has always been cautious, and such blatant extravagance is a strange thing." Su Hao picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

Qin Yuan asked puzzledly: "Brother Su, do you mean that the Empress is secretly contributing to the flames?"

The sound of bronze drums in the street was heard intermittently, and Su Hao nodded in response: "Nowadays, there is no main palace master in the harem. Although the selection of concubines has been repeatedly postponed by the empress, in the end the harem always chooses a queen. I think the empress is doing this I just used Xie Min to test the people's reaction to this.

When the night was getting dark, Xie Min looked at the crying daughter of the noble family very worriedly, it should have been a good day.

The empress suddenly pointed out this marriage for herself, and the mansion originally raised many handsome young men, but now they have to move out of the main courtyard temporarily.

Xie Min got a headache when she thought about it, and raised her hand to remove the red hijab, only to see that the girl from your family turned out to be a girl who was only thirteen or fourteen years old.

"Why are you crying?" Xie Min put down the red hijab, turned to pick up the flagon beside him, thinking whether to drink the wine or not?

Earlier, Xie Min was a wanderer in the rivers and lakes. It was a life of swords and swords. Now that he is an official in the court, he can enjoy wealth and splendor. He thought love was boring, so he recruited a few young men on weekdays. You come to play, who would have thought that a marriage would suddenly fall into place.

"I'm afraid." The little girl stopped crying and only responded timidly.

Xie Min poured the wine and handed it to the little girl, "Why are you crying, I won't eat you."

The little girl looked down at the wine cup and said, "But I don't know how to drink."

"You don't know what kind of wine this is?"

"do not know."

Xie Min poured himself a glass of wine, thinking that this marriage was just a joke in the eyes of others, so the girl's mother never taught her the wedding etiquette.

The little girl looked at Xie Min drinking the wine like water, and could only drink it all in one gulp.

The wine is not strong, but if you are in a hurry to drink it, you will easily blush and feel uncomfortable. This is what the little girl looks like now.

Xie Min held the wine cup between her fingers and leaned sideways against the bed rail, while the little girl looked around in a daze, lying on the red quilt in a daze.

Thinking that the little girl was about to fall asleep, Xie Min wanted to get up and call the maid to come in and take care of her grooming.

Who would have thought that the little girl would choke up and start crying, Xie Min looked at her helplessly but didn't make a sound to comfort her.

There has never been a smooth road in the world, even a daughter from a noble family cannot escape the fate of marriage.

It is better to let her know how difficult the world is, than to keep her in the dark.

There were three days off for marriage, and when Su Qing held the roster of flowers and counted the officials in the morning, he did not expect to see Xie Min come to court.

The woman's marriage contract was appointed by the empress, and the ministers kept silent about it, and Xie Min, the person involved, probably felt very complicated.

After all, the girl from your family is only thirteen or fourteen years old, so she probably doesn't know what love is.

In the afternoon, Xia Xiang held the library and asked belatedly: "Can two women get married?"

Su Qing counted the number of books and responded with an extremely calm expression: "Your Majesty says that marriage must be married even if it is a person and an object, otherwise it is against the decree."

"But why did Your Majesty point out the woman as marriage to Mr. Xie?" Xia Xiangli asked from the side.

"There may be two reasons for this move. One is that Xie Min's power is already too great. If he marries with another family, it will definitely be detrimental to His Majesty. As for the second, it is probably related to Miss Wen." Su Qing only briefly mentioned it.

Xia Xiang held a pen in one hand and drew a tick mark on the whole record of the library, muttering rather sadly: "Miss Wen hasn't come to Zangshu Pavilion for a long time."

Seeing the mournful tone of the little palace man, Su Qing comforted her, "Maybe Miss Wen is busy these days."

"I know." The little palace man turned his head to look at Su Qing, and replied very seriously, "Your Majesty doesn't like me, so he doesn't let Miss Wen come to see me."

"You..." Seeing the rare seriousness of the little palace man, Su Qing couldn't help being a little taken aback.

Xia Xiang turned her head and looked at the dense books on the bookshelf: "Miss Su, you don't need to comfort me."

Su Qing looked at the stubborn expression of the little palace man, but didn't know what to say to comfort her.

When the two of them came down from the moving stairs to rest, the hall was already quite dark. Su Qing rubbed her cold wrists and sat at the main table to enjoy the fire.

The little palace man approached with a teapot, then poured a cup of tea and handed it over, saying, "You have a taste."

Su Qing picked up the teacup and smelled the faint fragrance, slightly surprised: "Is this crabapple tea?"

"You made me a new crabapple flower bag this summer. There were still a lot of crabapple flowers left, so I learned the method of drying tea leaves that Miss Wen taught me before and preserved them." Xia Xiang sat aside He took a sip of his tea.

"You have a heart." Su Qing held the teacup and praised.

The little palace man smiled shyly, holding a teacup in his hand and quietly warming himself around the charcoal basin.

There are no people in this library all year round. Su Qing used to have a lot of things to deal with in winter alone, and he never had time to relax all day. Now, the people in the small palace can handle most of the affairs, which really helped a lot .

So Su Qing made a few small objects, Xiao Gongren is also a very grateful person, and he always does things very carefully.

So much so that Su Qing forgot that the little palace lady was only seventeen, and one day when she was drying the clothes, she found a rather crude apron.

The needle and thread came loose in several places, presumably a palace maid who is not very good at needle and thread, the newly patched threads are crooked.

Su Qing instinctively thought about it, and one night when he was delivering warm soup to the little palace lady, he found that the little palace lady was full of embarrassing needlework, and the belly pocket was exposed at the corner of the quilt, which was the one she saw a few days ago.

The palace people distribute clothes twice a year, but they still have to sew their own personal items. Su Qing saw the little palace people showing a rare look of distress, so she said: "You are getting older now, so you have to get two new ones. Yes, if you don't mind if I sew two for you?"

The little palace man blushed and replied coyly: "I'm really bothering Ms. Su."

Su Qing looked at this little girl who didn't know what sunflower water was before, but now she blushed with embarrassment, feeling like a child growing up inexplicably.

In the daytime, Su Qing had work to do, so she could only sew her apron at night. At night, Xia Xiang surrounded her with a lamp and copied books with one hand.

There is a limit on the amount of charcoal, candles, etc. in the Zangshu Pavilion, so in order to save the items of the two people, they are also used together.

It is also the first time for Su Qing to make such a personal item for her, so she is a little nervous, and she will try it when the little palace maid changes it.

The little palace man was wrapped in a quilt, and reached out to take the bellyband, but Su Qing looked away, only looking at the flickering candle anxiously.

"If you think it's too lenient, I'll correct it for you." Su Qing didn't see the little palace man making a sound for a long time, so he spoke first.

"Just right, it fits very well." Xia Xiang looked down at the pattern, and asked curiously, "Is this a crabapple flower?"

Su Qing thought that the little palace lady was already dressed neatly, so she turned around. Who would have thought that the little palace lady was sitting on the bed with only her bellyband on, her long hair scattered behind her back, her slender arms hanging down by her side, her cheeks still A little blush, as if looking shyly.

Xiao Gongren, she is already a slim girl.

Su Qing looked away in a panic, raised her hand and pulled the quilt to wrap her too thin body and said, "Aren't you afraid of the cold?"

"I just wanted you to see it." Xia Xiang only showed a small face and looked at Miss Su in front of her.

I thought she was shy, but I didn't realize that she was still the naive little palace lady she used to be.

"Since you think it fits you well, that's fine." Su Qing saw the little palace man wrapped up in the quilt before letting go.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Xia Xiang was a little unnatural and puzzled when she saw Miss Su.

"Is it hot in the house?"

Miss Su looked at the little palace man in a daze, and raised her hand to lightly touch her hot cheeks: "It's probably a little hot."

"I'll sew three pieces for you so that it's easy to change and wash." Su Qing said, looking away from the needlework.

Xia Xiang looked at Ms. Su with a smile on her face while she was wrapped in a quilt and said, "Please trouble Ms. Su."

"You have also helped me a lot on weekdays, we are taking care of you." Su Qing looked at the smiling eyes of the little palace man and smiled.

On weekdays it was rare to see Miss Su laughing, Xia Xiang's heartbeat was inexplicably violent, half of her face was buried in the quilt and she didn't make a sound.

My head was full of thoughts about Miss Su's beautiful smile.

In the early winter night, a snowstorm came very suddenly. Wen Ruyan wrapped herself in heavy winter clothes, wishing she could hug herself with the quilt from head to toe.

Zhao Yao looked at Wen Ruyan, whose head was huddled in the fox fur, only revealing those dark eyes, really like a clever and cute little fox in the forest.

After the news of Xie Min's marriage was reported in the southern kingdom, Zhao Yao was very satisfied with the reactions of the people and ministers, so the imperial court issued an imperial decree to confer Wen Ruyan as empress.

Although the ministers were a little surprised, no one dared to take the lead in raising criticism.

In this canonization ceremony, Zhao Yao ordered an amnesty for the whole world, and also specially reduced and exempted the grain taxes turned in by the states and counties.

Because of Zhao Yao's imperial decree, Wen Ruyan could no longer hold the position of a scholar in front of the temple.

But in winter, at least you don't have to get up early, and wake up naturally after sleeping. Wen Ruyan ate breakfast and took a walk in Chaotian Hall.

This Chaotian Palace was far bigger than what Wen Ruyan had imagined, and within a few days the ground was covered with thick snow.

The palace people waited not far or near, Wen Ruyan was kicking the small stove in his hand, just thinking about picking some plum blossoms back home.

Unexpectedly, the ground suddenly collapsed, Wen Ruyan subconsciously grabbed the branch of the plum tree beside him, but it still fell into the hole, and the snow on it fell down with a clatter.

The palace people surrounded the cave and shouted anxiously, Wen Ruyan was about to speak out in pain, but someone grabbed his neck with one hand and threatened, "If you want to survive, don't make a sound."

This voice is too vicissitudes, and there is a trace of familiarity.

Most likely because they didn't hear Wen Ruyan's reply, the palace people ran out one after another to find reinforcements.

The cave was surprisingly dark, and Wen Ruyan couldn't even see clearly. He was looking for someone with his eyes wide open, when the fire pocket suddenly lit up.

The white-haired old man looked at Wen Ruyan with a disheveled face and sighed: "You little girl wants me to find you."

Wen Ruyan really couldn't believe his eyes, this must be too bad luck.

"Did you recognize the wrong person?"

"This old man is a century-old Taoist priest. How could he be wrong? Even if you turn into ashes, this old man will recognize you."

Trapped in this cave right now, Wen Ruyan had no place to hide, and replied, wanting to cry, "How did I offend you old man?"

The white-haired old man held up the torch and said: "You are not from this dynasty, but you changed the fate of this dynasty. Naturally, the old man sent you back to be the right way."

"I have a question, how do you send me back?"

"Follow the old man to Yunshan to find out."

Wen Ruyan stretched his hands and shook his head, "Wait a minute, can I choose a time to leave?"

If you leave now without making a sound, it must be counted as escaping marriage, then Zhao Yao will definitely...
