Your majesty, please stay in the cold palace

Guo Heng was entangled and entangled, and he didn't dare to go to Shang's study for two days.It's not that he didn't want Xu Chengze, how could he not want to see him?As soon as he figured it out, he wanted to tell him immediately, but when he thought of Xu Chengze leaving without saying goodbye that afternoon, he was scared.

However, he really missed Xu Chengze and wanted to know his thoughts.

When he retreated from the court that day, he purposely left Kong Qingping behind.

"Qingping, you haven't been in the palace to see Old Concubine Yi for a while, have you?"

Kong Qing gave Guo Heng a blank look, "Isn't it because of you, the emperor, that you entrusted the most troublesome and difficult things to my younger brother? My younger brother is busy every day, how can I have time to see the old concubine?"

Guo Heng smiled and said: "I trust you, so I entrust you with such a difficult task. Moreover, I believe you will do a good job." Kong Qingping smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty, you are coaxing death without paying for it! I really fell for Chengze's tricks, if I had known it was so hard, I wouldn't have been an official in the court."

Guo Heng stopped him because he wanted to know about Xu Chengze's situation, and hearing him take the initiative to mention it at this time, it happened to follow his wishes.

"Have you seen Ozawa recently? He... as Rui'er's teacher, can he get used to it?"

Kong Qingping was sensitively aware that there was a problem between Guo Heng and Xu Chengze.Otherwise, Guo Heng was nervous about Xu Chengze, and wished to see him every day before he entered the court. Now that Xu Chengze is in the palace every day, how could he bear not to see him?

He intentionally said: "I've been quite busy recently, so I haven't seen Master Xu much. However, Master Xu enters the palace every day, and if the Emperor wants to see him, he can go directly to the Minister's Study Room."

Guo Heng rubbed his nose, and said awkwardly: "I'm afraid that if I go too many times, it will affect his teaching Rui'er."

It's delicious, Kong Qingping sneered in his heart, I don't believe it!There must be something to this.

It's just that it's good to go and see the excitement.

Thinking of this, he said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it's rare for a minister to enter the palace today, why don't you accompany the Emperor to meet Lord Xu?"

Guo Heng was eager to see Xu Chengze, and he was afraid that Xu Chengze would be embarrassed if he went alone. Of course it would be best to have Kong Qingping with him.

The two had different thoughts, but they were running towards a common goal, and they came to Shang's study happily talking and laughing.

Xu Chengze was very happy to see Kong Qingping, because he went to the palace to study with the Pope's son every day, and Kong Qingping was also busy with government affairs, the two hadn't seen each other since the previous official banquet.

"Brother Kong, you are a busy person, why are you free to enter the palace today?"

Kong Qingping said with a smile: "The lower official came with the emperor."

He sold Guo Heng with a single sentence, Xu Chengze looked up and saw Guo Heng behind him, the smile on his face froze, he took a step forward and knelt down to salute.

"My minister Xu Ruoxu has met the emperor, long live the emperor..."

Guo Heng helped him up himself, and said in a deep voice: "Xiao Ze, didn't I say that there is no need to salute in front of me?"

Xu Chengze took a step back, avoiding his touch, bowed his head and said: "I dare not disrespect the rules and etiquette."

Guo Heng's face suddenly changed, what does Ozawa mean by this?Is it implying to myself that we can only be monarchs and ministers, and we cannot have other relationships, otherwise it is against the law of etiquette?

"Ozawa, I've thought it through, how about you? Do you think my relationship is not as good as etiquette?"

Xu Chengze raised his head suddenly, his eyes fixed on Guo Heng, what did he mean by that, is that what I thought it meant?

Kong Qingping didn't know what charades the two of them were playing, and then looked at Guo Rui who was standing aside who was also confused, and pulled him out.

"The eldest son of the emperor, I will take you for a walk. After studying for so long, it's time to rest for a while."

"But, sir, he didn't say..."

"Your father has something to say to Mr. Let's not obstruct him here."

Guo Rui hesitated and refused to leave, but Kong Qingping persuaded him to take him away.

Kong Qingping and Guo Rui left, and the waiters in Shang's study were also sent away by Shuiyun.

In the past two days, Shuiyun also felt that something was wrong with the emperor, as if he had something on his mind, he sighed for a while, and smiled inexplicably for a while, he didn't come to Shang's study, and he didn't ask him about Master Xu's situation.

He guessed that the emperor might have had a conflict with Mr. Xu, since the emperor took the initiative to find Mr. Xu, it would be good to take this opportunity to speak up.

Everyone left, only Guo Heng and Xu Chengze were left in Shangshu's room, and the room suddenly became quiet.Xu Chengze didn't know what Guo Heng was going to say to him, but he had a vague premonition, and felt his heart beating louder and louder.He lowered his eyes, and his palms slowly grew tired and sweaty.

I haven't seen him for only two days, but Guo Heng feels like he hasn't seen him for a long time.He watched Xu Chengze's long eyelashes trembling slightly, suddenly

Realized that Xu Chengze was also nervous.

What is he nervous about?Does he know what I'm going to say?Or, does he have different thoughts about me?

Guo Heng took a step forward and grabbed Xu Chengze's hand.

"Ozawa, I, I..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he heard Shui Yun shouting outside: "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager has ordered someone to deliver an order, please go to Kunning Palace."

As soon as the words fell, the door of Shang's study room opened, and Shui Yun came in with Wang Cai, the chief manager of the Palace of Compassion and Ning.

Wang Cai knelt down and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager said that she has something important to discuss with the Emperor, please ask the Emperor to go to Kunning Palace."

Guo Heng didn't know what the queen mother wanted him to do, he didn't want to go at all, he hadn't made it clear to Xiao Ze yet!

"Go back and report to the Empress Dowager, saying that I am busy today, and if I have time, I must go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to see the Empress Dowager."

But Wang Cai knelt down, "Don't embarrass this servant, Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager is in Kunning Palace now, please go over now."

"Kunning Palace?" Hearing that it was going to the Queen's place, Guo Heng was even more reluctant to go, "If I don't go, you still have to tie me to go?"

Guo Heng became angry, his face completely sank, and his voice raised.

Wang Cai was too frightened to speak, but kowtowed repeatedly.

"The servant dare not."

Xu Chengze couldn't see him embarrassing his slave, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, there might be important matters with the Empress Dowager! Just go there!"

Ozawa was finally willing to talk to himself, and Guo Heng's mood instantly improved.

He took a step forward, lowered his head slightly, and whispered in Xu Chengze's ear: "Xiao Ze, when I come back, I have something to tell you." After speaking, he said loudly: "Let's go! I will go to Kunning Palace for a while." trip."

Guo Heng came and went in a hurry, but the last sentence caused Xu Chengze's heart to stir up an uproar.What does Guo Heng mean?Is it what you think?

When Guo Heng entered Kunning Palace, he saw that the main hall was full, with the Empress Dowager sitting in the middle, next to the Empress, Concubine Lin Xian, Concubine Liu Shu, and several concubines.

Seeing Guo Heng enter the door, everyone except the Queen Mother stood up and saluted.

Guo Heng waved his hand to signal them to get back on their feet. He saluted the Queen Mother and said with a smile, "Queen Mother, today's gathering is so complete, what's the big deal?"

The queen mother glared at him and said, "It's not just a big event, it's also a happy event."

Guo Heng sat down and said, "What happy event?"

"Of course it's the little prince's full moon wine!" The queen mother said, "Xiang'er is the queen's son, your eldest son. Is his full moon wine a big deal?"

Guo Heng has only been thinking about Xu Chengze these days, completely forgetting that the little prince is already full moon.It was really because he didn't like the queen, and he was even more disgusted by the birth of the little prince.

But in front of the queen mother, queen and concubines, he will not show it.

He sighed and said: "How time flies! It's actually full moon. Since the Queen Mother said it's a big event, let's handle it well.

"

The queen mother smiled and said: "The Ai family also said the same. The full moon wine for Xian'er needs to be held in a big way, but the queen said that the emperor doesn't like extravagance and waste, and said that this wine will be avoided. Your majesty, if you say no, mourn The family does not agree."

After Guo Heng entered the door, he set his eyes on the queen for the first time.

Today should be the first time the empress has left Kunning Palace after giving birth. It can be seen that the empress has made up very well in the past month. The original oval face has become a round face and her body has become two times thicker. lock up.

She was his queen and gave birth to a son for him. Guo Heng couldn't help but visit her because of emotion and reason, but Guo Heng felt that he had no conversation with her.Even if I still go to Kunning Palace, I just sit for a while and leave.

Perhaps because of the birth of a son, the queen felt elated, and her voice was a little higher.

"All the courtiers and concubines listen to the emperor. However, when there was Rui'er, the emperor hosted a banquet for all the ministers and announced to the world that his eldest son was born. Xian'er is the first son, so we can't even marry Rui'er." Not as good."

Guo Heng sneered in his heart, if you say everything is according to me, why bother with the rest of the nonsense?

But the Empress Dowager called him here with great fanfare, and in front of so many concubines, this face must be given.

He smiled lightly and said: "As the queen mother said, if it needs to be done, it must be done in a big way. I will instruct Mr. Ma, the Ministry of Rites, to prepare for it.

After he finished speaking, he seemed to think of it suddenly, and said, "Concubine Shu, I remember that Ying'er should be over a hundred years old, right?"

Concubine Liu Shu stood up and replied, "Yes, it will be the day after tomorrow."

Guo Heng said: "Since Ying'er's [-]th birthday is only a few days away, why don't we hold the two wines together, one son and one daughter, making it a good name, it can be considered double happiness."

Concubine Liu Shu didn't expect that Guo Heng still remembered Ying'er's hundred years old, and she wanted to serve wine with the little prince, which was a surprise.

The queen curled her lips. Can her eldest son be compared with the daughter of a concubine?Serving wine with her really gave her face.

It's just that she hasn't spoken yet, but the queen mother nodded and said: "The Ai family has forgotten Ying'er. She is old, and her life is muddled, and she can't remember many things. The emperor's proposal is good, double happiness, so it's settled , two children's wine together!"

Guo Heng nodded secretly, the queen mother was still grand.

"Empress Dowager, let's hold a banquet in three days' time to celebrate the full moon and centenary of the little prince and little princess, and invite all the officials to the Glory Pavilion. The harem concubines are still in the Spring Garden, how about it?"

The Queen Mother nodded, "Your Majesty has considered everything thoroughly, so let's do this!"

The queen first saluted and thanked Concubine Liu Shu.

All the concubines knelt down and saluted, "Congratulations to the emperor for the double happiness."

The queen mother stood up and said: "It's getting late, Ai's family is going back. The queen's body is still weak, so I can't bother you, you all go back!"

"say,,

疋.

The concubines withdrew.

Guo Heng said: "Queen Mother, I will send you back to the palace."

The queen mother said: "Okay. The Ai family has something to tell you!"
