A kitten dressed as an empress

"After you drink this tea, go back to your Chaotian Palace, so as not to be frozen here and blame others." Wen Ruyan raised her hand and rubbed her frozen hands complainingly.

Zhao Yao held Wen Ruyan's warm palm with one hand and said, "If I don't return, what can you do to me?"

Wen Ruyan looked at Zhao Yao helplessly and said, "The salary will be paid at the end of this month, and I'm busy sorting out the accounts. If you are neglected, don't blame and be cruel."

"Then you can put these things aside for now, the peach blossoms and willows in spring is a good time to enjoy the scenery, you are busy with these trivial matters all day long, so you don't have time to talk to me intimately." Zhao Yao pointed her fingertips Wen Ruyan scraped the palm of his hand a few times ambiguously, during which he leaned over suggestively.

How could Wen Ruyan not understand her little thoughts, it was raining lightly outside, how could it be considered a good time to enjoy the scenery?

"It's broad daylight, don't think about it." Wen Ruyan raised his hand to touch Zhao Yao's forehead and flicked it lightly.

Zhao Yao looked at Wen Ruyan with an indifferent face, leaned over and whispered in her ear, "I can wait for you until dark."

The gusts of warm wind rushed into my ears, Wen Ruyan couldn't help shivering, and helplessly turned her head to look at the serious Zhao Yao, and said, "Are you sure to blow into my ears?"

"Who told you not to talk to me?" Zhao Yao urged, leaning on the soft pillow with her head on Wen Ruyan's lap, "Hurry up and settle the accounts, or I won't allow you to watch it when it gets dark."

Wen Ruyan looked at the person who was lying in her arms, pinched her cheek with her fingertips and said, "You are really a troublemaker."

Zhao Yao was very obedient and let Wen Ruyan pinch her face and eyes and said with a smile: "I like to toss you the most."

Why does this sound a bit wrong?

Therefore, Wen Ruyan didn't look at Zhao Yao for a long time, and buried her head in drawing a pen to settle accounts, while planning in her heart to teach Song Zhen a lesson.

When it was getting dark outside, Wen Ruyan reached out to pick up the torch and wanted to light the candlestick, his eyes fell on the person in his arms.

At some point Zhao Yao pulled a thin blanket to wrap the two of them, and they are now fast asleep.

The emperor is much busier than the empress, Zhao Yao seldom has time to come to the Jiaofang Hall to chat during the day, Wen Ruyan raised her hand to brush away the thin hair on the side of her face, and looked at her.

Such a quiet Zhao Yao was often seen in the past, but now it is rare to have the opportunity to see it.

Zhao Yao is afraid of the cold but not the heat. Although the temperature gradually rises in spring, it occasionally cools down at night. Wen Ruyan has already changed into spring clothes, but her clothes are still mainly made of keeping warm.

Wen Ruyan touched the slightly frowning brow with his fingertips and whispered, "Did you have a nightmare in your dream?"

The two of them stayed together for so many years, Zhao Yao would often wake up at night due to nightmares, Wen Ruyan asked several times but was dodged, so she knew something was up in her mind.

Occasionally in her sleep she could hear her calling her mother softly, but her expression was terrified, probably because she had been punished a lot by her mother when she was young.

But Zhao Yao never wanted to talk about her childhood, and Wen Ruyan didn't want to reveal her scars, so she mostly coaxed her to sleep after she woke up from a nightmare.

When the palace servants entered to light the lamp, the bead curtains were opened and made a crackling sound as they collided, Zhao Yao frowned and then opened her eyes.

Wen Ruyan raised his hand to lightly wrap her around her to comfort her, "It's nothing, it's just that the palace servants came in to light the lamp."

Zhao Yao leaned her head slightly and snuggled into Wen Ruyan's arms, her eyes were still a little sleepy and she lowered her eyes and asked in a slightly low voice: "What time is it?"

"It was just Xu time." Wen Ruyan pressed his palms against the solid blanket.

"Haven't you finished watching?" Zhao Yao slowly leaned forward, leaning forward lazily, with her head resting on Wen Ruyan's right shoulder.

"Well, there are some more." Wen Ruyan leaned back against the pillow, and helplessly hugged Zhao Yao who was leaning on him: "You seem like a lazy cat?"

Zhao Yao looked up at Wen Ruyan with a slight smile and said, "Lazy cat, isn't it you?"

Wen Ruyan met those smiling eyes, her heart beat a few beats in vain, and she couldn't help sighing that perhaps this was a captivating look.

"If you don't get up again, my legs will be numb." Wen Ruyan really admired her endurance for the whole half of the afternoon supporting a large living person.

"Then I'll rub it for you." Zhao Yao moved her palm down, and Wen Ruyan pressed her hand in fright, "Don't be flirtatious, I haven't eaten dinner yet?"

Zhao Yao buried her head in Wen Ruyan's neck and laughed out loud: "You are really overthinking, I really just want to beat your legs."

Wen Ruyan blushed a lot from being teased, raised her hand and gently pushed Zhao Yao away and said, "Laugh, anyway, you're going to sleep soft tonight, don't sleep with me."

"Are you angry?" Zhao Yao turned her head to look at Wen Ruyan, who was blushing in embarrassment, lightly cupped the side of her face with her fingertips and pecked a few times, "Hey, I don't want to laugh at you."

The palace man who was lighting the lamps in the hall did not dare to make a sound, for fear of disturbing the little love between the emperor and empress.

Once it started to rain in spring, it would take more than half a month to stop. Song Zhen looked at the light rain outside the window in annoyance, while the backs of the hands of the palace servants preparing tea were still bloodstained.

"What are you afraid of?" Song Zhen held a handkerchief and wiped the small leather whip, and looked at the cowardly palace maid disdainfully.

The palace servants hurriedly knelt on one side and begged for mercy: "Young concubine, please spare this servant."

Song Zhen sneered and said, "I spared your life because I felt tired last night. Why are you so afraid?"

"Forget it, the internal secretary is paying the salary today, and I'm in a good mood, so I'll forgive you for a while." In this lifeless palace, the palace people are not as resistant to torture as the maids outside.

It's really annoying that a young eunuch in the inner department dares to interrogate just a few palace servants' corpses.

When her company was still coming in the afternoon, Song Zhen's expression became a little irritable, she swept the teacup in her hand and said, "What are everyone doing in this palace!"

"Why don't you go to the nephew and ask?" the palace servant trembled.

Before she finished speaking, Song Zhen raised her hand and slapped her. The palace servant's cheeks swelled up suddenly, blood oozes from the corner of his mouth, his eyes were red with tears but he dared not cry.

Song Zhen said angrily, "I'm a noble concubine, not a slave. How dare a little head of internal affairs be so arrogant. I want to see if he can open it today!"

The palace servants covered their faces timidly and dodged to the side. When the sun was approaching dusk, the head of the internal department led a group of young eunuchs into the Xiulan Palace of Concubine Song.

"The servant greets the imperial concubine and empress."

Song Zhen held a round fan in her hand and said coldly, "I thought it was something blocking my eyes, but it turned out to be the head of the department."

The Chief Internal Affairs Officer said with a smile on his face: "If the imperial concubine is not happy to see our family, then our family will hurry up and promulgate the queen's order, so as not to waste your time."

"Recently, due to the frequent casualties of palace personnel in Xiulan Palace, all the maids in Xiulan Palace are now recalled, and only six eunuchs are left to serve. If there are any more innocent palace personnel casualties, the master should be ordered. Remembering that the imperial concubine and empress committed the crime for the first time, they will be punished." Half a year's salary will be deducted."

Song Zhen frowned and looked at the high-spirited head of internal affairs, and couldn't help sneering.

"It's no wonder the head of the internal department dared to be so negligent today. It turned out to be the queen's will."

The father-in-law placed the decree with both hands at Song Zhen's table, and then carefully stepped back and still responded with a smile: "The empress is the master of the harem, and the imperial concubine also invites Haihan. After all, this edict still has Your Majesty's jade seal as an imperial edict."

These words already reminded that this edict is not only the queen's will, but also the empress' permission.

Song Zhen looked at the palace servants who left Xiulan Palace as if fleeing, raised her hand and threw the round fan out, gnashing her teeth, "Get out, get out of here!"

Wen Ruyan dared to punish him in public like this, he really deserved to die!

Wen Ruyan, who was studying ink, suddenly yawned, raised his hand, picked up a handkerchief, wiped his nose and wondered, "Could someone be scolding me?"

Zhao Yao picked up a pen to review the memorial and said with a smile, "Why didn't you say that I was thinking about you?"

amount……

Wen Ruyan didn't want to accept what she said.

"I think it must be Song Zhen who is speaking ill of me behind my back." Wen Ruyan recalled Song Zhen's haughty look, and today not only ordered her to withhold half a year's salary, but also dismissed her palace servants. She might be angry half dead.

"What are you laughing at?" Zhao Yao looked at Wen Ruyan with a puzzled smile.

Wen Ruyan raised her eyebrows and said triumphantly, "I'm laughing at Song Zhen, she must be very angry."

Zhao Yao raised her hand and flicked her forehead lightly, saying, "If you have time to think about her, you might as well think more about me."

These sour words made Wen Ruyan feel toothache so sour, he raised his hand to pick up the tea cup and sipped, "We stay together all day, no matter how hard we think about it, we can't come up with anything."

"Flowers?" Zhao Yao stopped writing and looked at Wen Ruyan in confusion, "Are flowers as beautiful as me?"

Wen Ruyan almost spit out the tea that he hadn't swallowed yet.

The level of narcissism of this person is really not what ordinary people can have.

"Can you review the memorial properly?"

Zhao Yao didn't get a satisfactory answer, and she pursed her thin lips a little bit displeased.

After a long while, Wen Ruyan really didn't hear anyone's voice. Wen Ruyan flipped through the memorial to dry the ink, and suddenly saw something about a woman from an aristocratic family's literature test.

"Are you planning to set up a woman as an official in the court?"

"Ah."

"That's pretty good. After all, it saves those talented women who have read poetry and books." Wen Ruyan came over with the memorial in his hand, and was about to discuss a few words with Zhao Yao.

It can be seen that this person's cold and sullen appearance is really abnormal.

"What's wrong with you?" Wen Ruyan raised his hand and squeezed Zhao Yao's earlobe.

Zhao Yao turned her head and looked at Wen Ruyan full of resentment and said, "I didn't pay attention to people before, why are you provoking me now?"

Wen Ruyan couldn't help laughing and responded, "How can I ignore you, it's obvious that you are too narcissistic."

"Then what do you want me to do now?" Zhao Yao still had a cold face as she dipped her pen and ink.

"Why are only women from aristocratic families allowed to participate in the women's literary examination?" Wen Ruyan planned to tease Zhao Yao, to see how long she could pretend.

"Do you still think that all women can take part in the test?"

"Yes."

Zhao Yao shook her head and said: "If all women can participate in the competition, I'm afraid they will be strongly opposed by the officials. After all, it is still difficult for children from poor families to enter the officialdom, and it is even more impossible to allow ordinary women to enter the exam. There is no rush."

Wen Ruyan baked the memorial to the charcoal basin and said, "So you want to use the power of the family to help some powerful women gain power first, right?"

"Well, that's exactly what I meant." Zhao Yao turned her head to look at the person whose cheeks were flushed by the charcoal fire, and she didn't see her for a while, and asked hesitantly, "Why don't you talk to me again?" ?”

"You just ignored me with a cold face, and now you let me come to talk to you, isn't it contradictory?" Wen Ruyan frowned and said with a smile. Then she understood her deliberate teasing and said: "You often say that I am bad, but I think you are the worst."

Wen Ruyan approached and responded, "I don't have time to do bad things to you these days."

"You took my heart first, and now you deliberately tease me with it. In my opinion, you are the worst person in the world." Zhao Yao wrapped her arms around the person in front of her and pecked sadly a few times. Will be pushed away before letting go.

"Then I apologize, okay?" Wen Ruyan raised her hand and pinched Zhao Yao's cheek in a funny way.

This man, who is the best at showing pity these days, accidentally fell for her.

Wen Ruyan couldn't follow her way of thinking again, so she only brought up the essay test, thinking of Xia Xiang, she wanted to go to Zangshu Pavilion to ask.

Finally, one day when she was free, she went secretly to the Library Pavilion, and Wen Ruyan entered with big bags and small bags.

"Wen, the empress is well." Xia Xiang got up from the low table and stepped forward to greet her.

"Xiao Xiang'er has grown a lot taller." Wen Ruyan raised her hand and rubbed Xia Xiang's face, "There is no one here, so you can just call me Miss Wen as before."

Miss Su was copying books at the main table, occasionally answering a few words, but most of them were very quiet.

Wen Ruyan was feeding Xia Xiang's pastries when she realized that there was something wrong with the atmosphere between the two.

Xia Xiang was thinking about returning the strange book to Miss Wen, so she suggested to go inside.

The two walked through the backyard, Wen Ruyan asked curiously: "Xiao Xianger, do you have anything for me?"

"When you returned the book last time, you left a book in the library, so I want to return it to you." Xia Xiang blushed and handed the strange book to Miss Wen.

Wen Ruyan didn't remember it at first, so she casually flipped through a few pages on the spot.

The scene was extremely embarrassing for a moment, Wen Ruyan closed the book, looked at Xiao Gongren's flushed cheeks and said, "Xiao Xiang'er, did you read it?"

Xia Xiang originally wanted to deny it, but she still nodded seriously: "I only read a little bit."

"This book is actually not bad. You always need to read some physiological knowledge when you are old. As long as you don't learn bad things, it will be fine." Wen Ruyan put the book in his sleeve pocket and explained solemnly.

"Hmm." Xia Xiang lowered her head with flushed cheeks.

Wen Ruyan didn't dare to continue, for fear of frightening the little palace man, after all, ancient people had relatively little knowledge of physiology, so it's normal to be shy.

It's much more normal than Zhao Yao, an ancient person who thinks about driving all the time.

The two of them went back to the front hall when they left the house, Wen Ruyan recalled seeing the strangeness of Miss Su and Xia Xiang before, so she asked aloud, "What's the matter with you and Miss Su today?"

Xia Xiang paused and responded hesitantly: "Ms. Su wants me to take part in the essay test, but the essay test requires a woman from an aristocratic family, so Mrs. Su wants me to be her younger sister, so that she can participate."

"That's great."

"But I don't want to be Miss Su's younger sister, so I refuse Miss Su's proposal." Xia Xiang sighed and asked rather annoyed, "Miss Wen, did I offend Miss Su?"

Wen Ruyan didn't understand at first, but seeing Xiao Gongren's girlish and sad expression, she suddenly had some inconceivable guesses.

"Xiao Xiang'er, you don't want to be Miss Su's younger sister, don't you like her?" Wen Ruyan looked at Xia Xiang with a look of shock and gossip.

Xia Xiang was also dazed, and blushed belatedly and said in a low voice, "So I like it."

Wen Ruyan raised his hand to rest his forehead, wondering if he accidentally ignited the little palace man's lily heart?

"Wait, calm down." Wen Ruyan thinks it's better not to mislead the children, after all, they were closer to girls when they were teenagers, maybe it's just a small illusion.

After all, Su Qing is Da Xiaxiang's big sister!

Women in ancient times married relatively early. If you compare them carefully, they are not a few years behind the mother and daughter.

"Sometimes when I look at Miss Su, my heart beats very fast. Do I like it too?" Xia Xiang asked trustingly.

Wen Ruyan felt that she shouldn't have come today.

Judging from Su Qing's character, a very traditional woman, although very smart, but it is impossible to be with a same-sex who is so much younger than her.

If this plot continues, it will be a sadistic drama.

"That's not necessarily true." Wen Ruyan racked his brains to think for a while, "Running also makes your heart beat faster, and it's very likely that at that time, you saw the illusion of Miss Su when your heart beat faster."

After thinking about it, Xia Xiang replied: "But many times I just sat aside and looked at it, and my heart beat very fast."

many times!

Boy, your mind is a little dangerous.

Wen Ruyan looked at Xia Xiang with great earnestness and said, "Calm down, at your age, you are neither too old nor too young. Ms. Su is a very attractive person, so you will be fascinated." It makes sense, so why don't you think about this complicated thing again in a few years?"

"Well, thank you Miss Wen." Xia Xiang thanked with a smile.

But Wen Ruyan felt a tinge of guilt in his heart, this child is too obedient, he couldn't bear to really lie.

After sending Miss Wen away, Xia Xiang took a step and sat back on the low table until the lights were turned on in the Library Pavilion at night, but Miss Su didn't make a sound.

Xia Xiang brought dishes from the outside and said hesitantly: "Miss Su, it's time for dinner."

"Eat it first, I'll warm it up later when I go back to my room." Su Qing didn't look up, still copying the book.

Because nothing could be seen on the surface, Xia Xiang sat on the side with the rice, took a bite and took a look, her heart was still beating very fast.

This feeling is really strange, a little sweet and a little painful, but Xia Xiang couldn't help but look around.

When the rice in the bowl bottomed out, Xia Xiang didn't eat a few mouthfuls of food, and left most of it for Miss Su.

Su Qing was a little annoyed, with Xiaogong's talents, if she could participate in the competition, she would definitely be fine.

But when he proposed to recognize her as his younger sister, the always obedient little palace man refused.

If you say you are angry, then of course there is, but it is more sad.

In the past few years, I ate and lived with the little palace people, even if they were not relatives, they were no different from relatives, but in the end the little palace people rejected me.

Su Qing thought for a long time before calming down, he thought maybe it was because he was usually serious about speaking and smiling, which caused the little palace people to be too awed, so they were afraid of rejecting him.

When getting up from the main table to prepare the meal, Su Qing saw that there was still more than half of the meat soup left, and the meal was shared by two people. Except for one portion of the meal, almost the dishes had not been touched.

People in Xiaogong have always been like this, but if there is meat in the dishes of Zangshuge, most of them will be left with me, and occasionally Miss Wen sends someone to send them, and they will all be shared with me.

She is the only person in the palace who respects her so much.

"Is that enough for you to eat?" Su Qing divided the dishes in half and stretched out his hand to beckon her over.

The little palace man sat on the side with legs crossed and lowered his head, and replied: "Enough."

Su Qing filled some rice with dishes and handed them to her side, saying: "Eat these."

"But I just ate." Xia Xiang didn't move her chopsticks.

"Are you disobedient?" Su Qing asked solemnly.

The little palace man hurriedly picked up a small bowl and stuffed rice into his mouth, saying: "Xiao Xianger is obedient."

Su Qing looked at her cute appearance, a slight smile appeared in her eyes, she couldn't help sighing that she was still an obedient child after all, how could she be serious with her?

Since she doesn't want to, then find another good opportunity to ask her what's on her mind.

The night was dark and the moon was shining in the sky. Wen Ruyan in the Jiaofang Hall was soaking her feet, while Zhao Yao who was standing beside her had already finished soaking her feet and stood behind her to rub her shoulders.

"What are you sighing about?" Zhao Yao pinched her earlobe with her fingertips and asked in confusion.

Wen Ruyan leaned back against Zhao Yaoying: "I'm thinking that your technique has become much more proficient recently."

Zhao Yao pursed her lips and said with a slight smile: "A few days ago you were still complaining about the pain, I dare not use too much force now."

"It really hurts me. Your strength might break your bones." Wen Ruyan nestled in Zhao Yao's arms, and remembered Xia Xiang's troubles again, "If there is a little girl who is fourteen years younger than you Say I like you, what do you think?"

"I will reject her." Zhao Yao wrapped her arms around Wen Ruyan's clingy kiss several times, "What are you thinking?"

Wen Ruyan snorted softly and said, "I'm thinking, don't refuse, think about your feelings seriously."

Zhao Yao thought she would like her answer, looked at Wen Ruyan in puzzlement and responded, "I don't have any feelings for anyone other than you."

Accidentally sweet to the teeth.

Wen Ruyan suppressed a smile and kissed the serious man, "Don't be in a hurry to confess your love, just help think about it, okay?"

"But I really can't think of it." With Zhao Yao's current age, the little girl is only 11 years old, what can he think?

"Then what do you think she will think with Su Qing's personality?" Wen Ruyan asked while pinching Zhao Yao's face.

Zhao Yao bowed her head very cooperatively and let Wen Ruyan tease her serious answer: "Su Qing has a very cautious temper, and her talent is also very outstanding. How could such a sensible person like a little girl who is fourteen years younger than herself?"

In fact, Wen Ruyan also thought so, after all, Su Qing's temperament is definitely an extremely rational person.

After all, what happened to Li Yi back then was so big, and he was able to enter the palace alone for ten years. Ordinary women would have been drowned by spit stars.

No matter how you look at it, it is impossible for a rational and knowledgeable traditional woman to accept the love of a little girl.

Poor little Xiang'er is about to be violently attacked at the beginning of love.

Wen Ruyan sighed again unconsciously, and Zhao Yao pinched the side of her face with her fingertips and asked sadly, "Who are you thinking about?"

"Again?" Wen Ruyan turned her head to look at Zhao Yao's unconcealable jealousy, bent her eyes and smiled slightly, "I'm thinking of you."

Zhao Yao looked at it with reddish cheeks, as if surprised and suspicious, she leaned closer and gently pecked her soft lips and said, "You are not trying to make me happy, are you?"

"What I said this time is true." Wen Ruyan looked at Zhao Yao wanting to cry but without tears.

Normally, if she didn't say that she missed her, Zhao Yao's face was full of unhappiness, but now that she said that she missed her, she didn't believe it anymore.
