[Three Kingdoms] I am the queen of the Great Wei Dynasty

As the evening approaches, the tired birds return to their nests, and the sun is slanted, casting dark red rays of light.

Ah Sheng just raised his head from the work of embroidering the cloak, rubbed his sore eyelids, stretched himself, and saw Shuangshuang outside the door begging to see him.

A Sheng hurriedly stuffed the needle and thread back into the dowry basket, stood up and invited her in, but saw that her complexion didn't seem very good, her originally rosy face was slightly sallow, she looked tired, and her eyelids were also stained blue.

"Feng Xiao is away with Sikong, and I happen to have nothing to do at home, so I came to find you to relieve my boredom." Shuangshuang was not polite, sat down without waiting for her greeting, took the tea bowl brought by Luyi and said.

"The day before yesterday, Pi'er was still talking about Aunt Shuang's plum blossom pancake, but you didn't come here. Now he also went to the battlefield, and it will take a long time for this blessing to come."

Shuangshuang took a sip of the tea, swallowed it down her throat, and said after a long time: "You are going to be an aunt too."

A Sheng didn't realize it at first, but when he came back to his senses, he immediately stared at her in surprise, his eyes moved to her stomach: "You..."

"This is Feng Xiao's child." Her face was dizzy with satisfaction, her pupils shone with a happy smile like a peach blossom, she gently stroked her lower abdomen, feeling its slight bulge.

She was wearing a loose wide-sleeved dress today, so Ah Sheng didn't notice any abnormalities at first, so she also smiled sincerely:

"Guo Jijiu will be very happy if he knows about it."

Shuangshuang just lifted the corner of her lips, then she lowered it, and suddenly said in a deep voice, inexplicably tinged with endless loss and sadness, "Will he really be happy?"

Asheng was stunned by her sudden question for half a second, and was at a loss: "Of course he is happy. This is his first child, and it was born to his favorite wife. No one can be ruthless than grass and trees. Guo Ji Liquor is the most straightforward and sincere person, so I am naturally happy."

How could she ask such a question?

A Sheng couldn't help but glanced at her face.

"I hope so." Shuangshuang's brows were filled with misty melancholy, and Ah Sheng heard the uncertainty in her tone.

But A Sheng can only attribute it to her lovesickness for the time being, so she can think so wildly, so she patted the back of her head and comforted her with a smile: "Don't think too much, Guo Jijiu has always been strategizing and calculating everything, within half a year You will return from the southern expedition, and then you will be able to reunite. Now, write him a letter from home, tell him that you have a child, and share the good news with him."

Shuangshuang nodded and said, "Then can you do me a favor."

She picked up the petals falling from the corner of the table, sniffed it close to the tip of her nose, and narrowed her eyes slightly so that Ah Sheng could not see the turbulent emotions brewing in her eyes.

"Just say it."

"If this child is born, can you be the child's godmother?" Shuangshuang's pupils looked solemn in the twilight, as if she was serious.

"Of course it's okay, besides, I had this plan in the first place." A Sheng took her hand lightly, just touching her icy skin, subconsciously shrunk back due to the cold.

Shuangshuang showed her face, "There is one more thing. I broke up with the emperor because of the matter of filial piety. I haven't seen the emperor for a long time. His birthday will be in two days. I heard that he will have a big banquet in the Hall of Yonghe." All the ministers, taking this opportunity, I want to enter the palace and look at him from afar."

"Why, do you miss your brother again?" A Sheng jokingly said while covering hers with his palm.

"After all, he is my real brother, and I can't give up this bloodline." Shuangshuang's expression was gloomy, her eyes looked into the distance, and she turned to the palace to the west. Can I see you again?"

"I found out that since you got married, why have you become so pessimistic in your speech? Hey, hey, don't talk nonsense in the future. Aren't you all well? Naturally, we can always see each other."

Shuangshuang just smiled noncommittally, and blew off the light yellow petals from her lips, and they fell to her feet one after another.

***

In the Yonghe Hall, Liu Xie sat on the dragon chair, and the lower two rows of officials sat separately, all wearing solemn Han family official uniforms.

The inner eunuch standing in the upper corner swept away the dust, and all the officials knelt down on the ground, and prayed in unison: "I hope that your Majesty will live forever and enjoy blessings forever. I wish my great man prosperity and prosperity, and the country's fortune will be prosperous!"

"Everyone is flat!" Liu Xie looked at the crowd of ministers under the stage, obviously happy, and when he glanced over his head, he locked his eyes on Xun Yu, who was ranked first.

"Xun Qing." He called out to Xun Yu.

Hearing this, the latter left the table and saluted Liu Xie with his sleeves, standing there like a tall and straight jade tree.

"The minister is here."

Liu Xie stared deeply into his eyes, his pupils were a bit gloomy but also full of expectation, like a clear sky covered by dark clouds.

The Adam's apple rolled down, and he moved his lips to say something, but the servant next to him pulled the dragon belt almost invisibly.

He froze suddenly, then looked around in a little panic, his eyes were full of vigilance and defense, adjusted his wording a few times, and finally said: "Xun Qing, you are dedicated to your duty for a big man, loyal and loyal, and the whole world respects you very much. As brilliant and flawless as the sun and the moon, the only minister I can rely on is you. You are recognized as a Confucian in China. I am young. I will come to you for advice if I don’t understand something in the future. Thank you for your advice. .”

Xun Yu bowed his hands and knelt down, his broad robe covered the floor tiles under his body, and the folds of his clothes swelled in the wind, "It is the duty of a subject to serve His Majesty loyally. How dare I not be so heartbroken for a big man, and die in repayment! Your Majesty is relieved, and I am yours!" When I repay Your Majesty's kindness, I will die."

Passing through the empty and solemn hall, his voice was calm and firm, like the most natural jade ring in the temple beating the bell, as if he was promising his oath.

Hearing this, Liu Xie quickly stood up from the dragon seat, and stepped forward to help him personally: "I know all about your love, please get up quickly."

There was silence everywhere, except for Kong Rong, who was on the left, let out an inadvertent "hum", his laughter was slight, but it seemed extraordinarily abrupt.

The tassels hanging on both sides of the crown covered his expression, and he could only vaguely see the contempt on his lips. He sighed for a long time, and said slowly: "I heard that there is a bird in the Kunlun Mountains in the west, which has a keen sense of smell and is good at doing things. The vicious tiger cannibalizes humans as a guide, and he himself relies on carrion for his survival. The two benefit from each other, and cannot do without each other. But this bird is always ashamed and blames itself for doing many evils, and the dirt on its body is difficult to wash off. On the one hand, he relies on his most shameless way to survive, vacillating, and finally provokes the contempt of birds all over the world."

When he said this, his eyes turned to Xun Yu, and he leaned leisurely and put his hand on his forehead, smiling slightly: "Mr. Xun Ling, you are known to be knowledgeable and well-informed. I wonder if you have heard of this legend?"

His voice was unusually loud, deliberately reaching everyone's eardrums, causing an uproar.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the two of them in an instant, but they were too terrified to express their anger, and they all remained silent.

This ridicule has inevitably been put on the bright side, and Kong Rong's remark is clearly to make Xun Lingjun unable to step down.

They thought to themselves, with cold sweat dripping down their backs, and they all looked at each other in blank dismay.

Stared at by Kong Rong's provocative eyes, Xun Yu remained silent, as if he didn't hear his sarcasm intentionally or unintentionally.

Taiwei Yang Biao saw that the atmosphere was awkward, so he couldn't help standing up to make a rescue, raised his wine glass, and toasted them with a smile: "Your Majesty's birthday banquet today, why should Dr. Kong tell such a spoiling story? Come on, the old minister sees everyone drinking. After a round, please order another altar from His Majesty."

"According to Yang Aiqing, pass on my order, and ten buckets of wine will be served in the dining room." With Liu Xie's big hand wave, the palace servants came out from the throne.

On the jade plates in their hands were a number of flying geese bronze jugs, and they bowed and stood by the side of the ministers.

Liu Xie pinched the ears of the imperial wine pot that had just been brought up in front of him, filled a bottle for himself, and bowed slightly to Xun Yu: "This cup of wine is my return to Aiqing, and the society depends on Xun Aiqing's support. It is really my luck, big man Fortunately!"

He has never been good at drinking, so he is slightly drunk, his figure is a little wobbly, he can't stand steadily, and he almost spills the wine in the glass.

Pulling back his sleeves and looking up, he was about to hold on to the rim of the cup to drink up the wine, when Xun Yu's eager yet respectful voice suddenly sounded beside his ear: "Your Majesty!"

Hearing this sudden stop, Liu Xie immediately stopped the movement of his hands, put down the wine bottle in doubt, and looked at him inquiringly.

"What's wrong with Aiqing?"

"Your Majesty," Xun Yu's face was even more elegant under the lights, his eyebrows were like flawless white jade.

Even though his thirties had passed, wind and frost did not leave him any traces of tempering, on the contrary, he added a gentle and unparalleled demeanor like a jade-colored orchid.

Just one glance would make the palace servants standing beside him blush and lower their heads in shame, not daring to cast another envious look, feeling that any extra look would be a defilement to him.

It was as if the quiet and intoxicating fragrance on his clothes penetrated straight into his heart, reverberated and lingered, and could never dissipate.

For a long time, I was only amazed.

He took the wine bottle that Liu Xie had put down, held it in his hand, and said, "Your Majesty, you are drunk, so let me drink this wine for you."

An imperceptible ripple flashed across the bottom of his eyes, but disappeared suddenly.

Not far away, there was a low sound of stomping feet in frustration, and a gaze that was staring at this place was suddenly extinguished. The hatred in the eyes was like a knife, stabbing straight at Xun Yu, and even cursed softly.

But it was quickly covered up by the whispering and whispering of the ministers.

Seeing Xun Yu pick up his imperial wine on his own initiative, Liu Xie couldn't help being a little stunned, and wondered to himself when this made Jun Sulai modest and reserved, when did he become so rude.

But he didn't dare to make a sound to stop him, he could only stare dumbfounded at Xun Yu raised the wine bottle, leaned forward to signal to himself, and drank it down in full view.

"Heh, is your majesty's jade fermented wine still suitable to your liking? We will not be blessed to enjoy the fine wine that your majesty has poured."

Kong Rong's strange sarcasm rang out again, but Xun Yu remained silent, and slowly put the wine bottle back on the jade plate. Suddenly, his fingers kept shaking.

"Bang" accidentally, the wine bottle was overturned and fell to the ground, spinning around on the stone bricks.

Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead in an instant, his originally calm expression was obviously wrong, the backs of his hands even turned blue, and his knees immediately went limp.

However, he only covered his chest and tried to hide himself, so as not to let outsiders see his abnormality, and tried his best to smile at Liu Xie: "Thank you... Thank you for your good wine. I am not feeling well, and now I will take my leave for the time being, please allow your majesty."

"Since Aiqing is not hesitant, why should I not allow it? I hope Aiqing will take care of herself." Liu Xie nodded and agreed to his request.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." With his sleeves stretched out, Xun Yu clasped his hands together and bowed heavily to Liu Xie.

Then he stood up slowly, quietly wiped away the blood oozing from his lips without being seen by others, turned around and walked out.

His steps were quiet and steady, and everyone he passed was silent, looking up at him, like a crescent moon in the sky at midnight, shining brightly but not flashy, just solemn and solemn.
