Empress dowager, the queen sighed

Chu Yuan spoke very slowly, so slowly that he was calm.

The dream was hazy, with a sense of mistyness.

Li Lexi had tears streaming down her face, she woke up from her dream crying, thunder burst, she opened the brocade tent in panic, "Ruoyun, Ruoyun."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the servant is here." Ruoyun pushed the door open and entered.

"Don't come in." Li Lexi quickly came back to her senses, her palm slid across her cheeks, and it was wet, she stared at the tears on her palm bewilderedly.

She panicked, and desperately wiped away the tears from her palms, carelessly touched the moisture from her face, and there was another thunderstorm outside the hall, she called Ruoyun again.

Ruoyun stood still, "Your Majesty, tell me, I can hear you here even if this servant doesn't go in. There was a thunderstorm just now, if you are afraid, can this servant invite Your Majesty?"

"No need." Li Lexi's eyes were dim, and the mountain in her heart suddenly rose up, pressing heavily on her heart. She wanted to breathe, but her heart felt uncomfortable.

There was no sound in the brocade tent for a long time, Ruoyun was so worried that he tried to talk inside: "Your Majesty, this is a nightmare, do you want some candy?"

Still silent.

Ruoyun boldly went to the cabinet to take out the sugar box, "Ma'am, did the servant bring it in for you?"

silent.She plucked up the courage to walk in with the sugar box in her arms, and quietly placed the box on the side table of the bed, deliberately amplifying the sound when she put it down.

Ruoyun turned around, stretched out a hand from the brocade tent, and took the sugar box away.

Ruoyun went back to the spot and looked a few more times, but there was nothing there, so she was relieved immediately.

She quietly exited the palace, spring thunder burst, and soon, spring rain came one after another, crackling and falling on the floor tiles, and the maids hid in the corridor.

The window of the dormitory opened quietly, and a hand was stretched out to catch Chunyu.

At this time, Pei Yao was also watching the rain, and the prime minister was sitting opposite her, talking about reform methods, the chronic disease left by the big man still needs to be eradicated, and the big Wei can change it.

But reform is not easy, and if the fundamentals are touched, it will cause dissatisfaction among the aristocratic family.

The prime minister was worried, but Pei Yao was very calm, she didn't want to talk about reform, but about the southern border.

The prime minister said: "Why doesn't your majesty accept the peace agreement in southern Xinjiang?"

"Why should I accept it?" Pei Yao asked the prime minister back, "It's not a day or two since Southern Xinjiang coveted the Central Plains. Before that, many people were sent to Luoyang to make trouble. Now, if they want to negotiate peace, Great Wei has to accept it? Prime Minister, the backbone of a great country Woolen cloth?"

The prime minister blushed with shame, "I was wrong."

"Perhaps Southern Border saw Great Wei Chuli and dared not touch them, but Great Wei has no shortage of money, so he can fight if he wants to." Pei Yao was confident, and said proudly: "I have a queen, and I am invincible."

The atmosphere that should have been calm was dissipated by the empress's last words, and the prime minister also smiled, and echoed: "Your Majesty is very right, the queen's intelligence and martial arts are the best in the world."

Pei Yao nodded, thinking in her heart: lust is also number one in the world.

"Prime Minister, think again about the reform. I can let you do it freely, but you need to have detailed regulations, and you can't make mistakes. Remember, you can do it boldly if you want to do it, sharpen it slowly, and don't be impatient. Even if you are now With the charter, I don't have time to do it, and now, Southern Xinjiang is eyeing me, and I dare not ignore it." Pei Yao doesn't understand reform, but she believes in the prime minister's ability.

Between Nanjiang and the queen, there are still some unclear accounts, so it is not appropriate to give up easily.

Now that she has become an empress, she must think about the empress.No matter how heavy the country is, it can't compare to the queen.

She didn't dare to say these words, she knew in her heart that she would not disappoint all the people in the world.

She can't be regarded as a wise monarch, but she will try her best to govern Wei well.

"Since your majesty has said it, I will do my best, there is one more thing." The prime minister hesitated to speak, his daughter is going to give birth in a month, what should the child do?

Pei Yao understood, nodded and said: "Whether it's a man or a woman, they will be the future heirs. You don't have to give Pei Yi'an, it's better for the prime minister to educate you yourself. I believe that my uncle with a refined character will satisfy me."

Although the queen is good, she is not suitable for raising children. If she raises another child with the same temperament as her, Jiao Fangdian will be smashed.

The prime minister was surprised, his eyes turned red immediately, he got up hurriedly, knelt down and kowtowed, "Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you for your kindness."

"I thank my uncle for giving up the eldest daughter." Pei Yao sighed, she was selfish, but she had no other choice. Fortunately, the cousin of the Zhao family was well educated and reasonable.

The prime minister knelt down and said, "It is my honor to serve the great Wei and the common people."

There was heavy rain outside the hall, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, dark clouds condensed in the sky, and the black clouds oppressed the environment, making people feel depressed suddenly.

Pei Yao helped the prime minister up, "I will let the Supreme Emperor name it." But there is one thing she doesn't want to tell the prime minister, the queen will not allow 'traitors' to live in the world when the crown prince is set.

The power cannot fall into Pei Yi'an's hands, let alone allow the Supreme Emperor to take advantage of it.

The prime minister left Xuanshi hall contentedly.

Pei Yao told Qingzhu to go to Qianyuan Hall to ask for a name, which was the last honor she gave to the Supreme Emperor.

****

The spring rain comes and goes quickly, and when it gets dark, the ground has dried up quite a bit.

Holding the lamp, Pei Yao walked slowly on the palace road, followed by the dark Gong'e, and Qingzhu was a few steps behind her, talking softly about the major events that happened in the palace.

There is also an empress dowager in the palace, Pei Yao doesn't like it, so she ordered the palace people not to treat her harshly, and to serve her with rich clothes and fine food, counting it as a way of caring for the rest of her life.

Qingzhu said that the Empress Dowager was ill and wanted to see her son.

Pei Yao's expression was cold, she didn't change much, but the palace lantern in her hand kept shaking, Qing Zhu wanted to pick it up, but Pei Yao refused, saying: "Tell her, if she dies, the Supreme Emperor will wear hemp and filial piety. Will meet again."

Qingzhu was stunned, not sure whether to persuade her, mother and son, if they don't see each other, others will say that His Majesty is not filial.

When walking to Weiyang Palace, Pei Yao stopped and changed her mind: "Let the Supreme Emperor go and see her, just one time."

Qingzhu laughed immediately, "Your Majesty is kind, Your Majesty is wise."

Pei Yao relaxed and stepped briskly into the palace. The empress has not left today and is still here.

The palace after the rain was a bit hazy under the reflection of the bright moon, and I felt like I was in a fairyland. The queen was sitting under the lamp, wearing a white shirt, holding a book in her hand.

Pei Yao approached quickly, "What book are you reading?"

"Your Majesty is back." Li Lexi got up and put aside the miscellaneous notes, and Pei Yao saw clearly with sharp eyes.

It was a miscellaneous note about Chu Yuan, the last emperor of Qi Dynasty.

She didn't mention it, but took the queen's hand as usual, and sat down slowly, "There is still one month left, and the child will be born."

"Let the Supreme Emperor choose a name." Li Lexi was in a low mood, she didn't like children, and except for Pei Yao, no one in the Pei family liked it.

Like the Li family, she doesn't like anyone.Back then, letting the son of the skinny horse ascend to the throne was nothing more than humiliating the old man.

"The two of us really agree with each other." Pei Yao smiled and hugged the queen tightly.

But Li Lexi straightened up from her arms, touched the skirt of her shoulders, "It's getting late, Your Majesty should rest."

"Has the queen eaten dinner?" Pei Yao grabbed her fingertips, only to realize that her hands were so cold that they lost their warmth.

Pei Yao held onto her tightly, Li Lexi stared at her with lowered eyes, her similar face was a little gentler, her eyes were crystal clear, she smiled, and smiled straight from the bottom of her heart.

"Today I dreamed about her again, she said you are very good, you can love me without distraction, but she can't."

One sentence made Li Lexi cry, and tears rolled down her cheeks.

Pei Yao blinked, "She was wrong, I love you because you liked me first."

Li Lexi smiled again instantly, staring at Pei Yao, who also looked at her, "Why are you crying, let's go out of the palace to eat mutton hot pot. The lord of the territory will be executed in a short time, and then his bones will be ashes. You don't have to worry."

Li Lexi's tears fell silently, and Pei Yao's eyes were full of smiles, "When the southern border king is killed, I will give the throne to that child, and we will go outside to live a happy life."

After laughing for a while, her eyes were sore, "Don't think about her, the more you think about her, the more you will dream. She is the obsession in your heart, as long as you don't want to, you won't dream."

There will always be a scar in the heart. Ordinary people may forget it in a few years, but they still feel uncomfortable when they think about it.

Miss Li has been buried in her heart for a hundred years, and her sadness and sadness all come from it.It is also the motivation to live.

There are pros and cons!Pei Yao grabbed her hand and walked out, "Let's go eat mutton pot and discuss how to clean up Nanjiang after eating."

"Nanjiang harmed Chu Yuan, I will clean it up for you. After cleaning up, you will be free."

The twilight is all together, and the evening wind has a unique coolness, blowing head-on, blowing away the tears, and making people wake up suddenly.

Li Lexi followed her step by step, all he could see was the light of palace lanterns, bright lights, like the firelight guiding the way.She stared at it for a while, then pulled Pei Yao to stop: "Pei Yao."

"I'm hungry, go eat hot pot, and then go to my master to cleanse your heart." Pei Yao stopped, but didn't look back.She was afraid that if she turned around, she would soften her heart.

Buddha can save all sentient beings, so he can naturally help Ms. Li.

Li Lexi's eyes hurt, her fingertips slowly moved up and landed on Pei Yao's wrist, she rubbed it lightly, then hugged her little thing, "I'm going to see Mrs. Jing'an alone."

"Let Jing Tuo go with you." Pei Yao was worried, Li Lexi was too obsessed, if she did something crazy, it would be bad, Jing Tuo might stop her if she was around.

Li Lexi and Jing An have known each other for many years, she was the one who sent Pei Yao there back then, Jing An knew the reason, but never asked.

When she arrived at the nunnery, Jing An had already cleaned out a clean Zen room, but when faced with Li Lexi's sudden arrival, she didn't ask, and only gave Li Lexi a Buddhist scripture.

It is a real scripture, which is different from Pei Yao's scriptures that buy dog ​​meat with a trick.

Jing'an burned a stick of incense to Guanyin Bodhisattva, chanted a few Zen words, and turned to talk to Li Lexi: "When I first met the queen, I knew you were an extraordinary person. I guessed it right when I thought about it. In the past 18 years, things are people. No, but you have never changed, and you are still so beautiful."

Jing'an doesn't talk much, but she raises Pei Yao who is a chatterbox.These words were the one Li Lexi heard the most tonight. She stared at the woman with a withered face, "Master Jing'an, do you think your Buddha makes you respect?"

Li Lexi doesn't believe in Buddhism, but there are some unreasonable reasons in the dark.But for so many years, she never placed her hope on Buddha.

Jing An lowered her eyes and kowtowed to the Bodhisattva, "The Buddha can save people, but not you."

Li Lexi smiled, "Why?"

"The crime of killing is too heavy." Jing'an replied, "Is the Queen here tonight to seek peace of mind, or is she being forced by hopelessness? You know that in your heart. Killing brings you great honor, and your heart is only about killing, not sentient beings. "

"Killing dehumanizes you."

"Master is right, people like Bengong who kill their fathers, brothers, and clansmen are destined not to receive the mercy of the Buddha." Li Lexi smiled slightly, with a hint of sternness in his eyes.

The author has something to say: it's late.
