Empress dowager, the queen sighed

Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, so I dare not disobey... The Empress Dowager smiled and said this silently.The queen is a nun, and the emperor doesn't know it at all. As long as Meng Qi has his heart, Pei Yao will not enter the palace.

A man's heart is really fickle.

The queen mother cheered up, picked up the marriage certificate and looked at it again, holding the middle between her fingertips, and tore it off with the other hand, "The marriage certificate is wrong."

Meng Qi's face turned pale, "Queen Dowager, Queen Mother, this marriage letter was written by General Pei himself."

"But the writing on it is new, Meng Qi, is Ai's family a three-year-old child?" The queen mother tore up the marriage certificate directly, "Ruoyun, send it to Doctor Meng."

"Empress Dowager, Your Majesty has passed away. The Empress Dowager is only 17 years old. Why do you ruin her life?" Meng Qi pleaded.

A piece of paper fell on the Empress Dowager's lap, she picked it up, and after a moment of silence, she said, "She was ruined by Pei Ze."

Meng Qi burst into tears. Yes, the queen has been ruined by the Pei family. Since 17 years ago, she has not been Pei Yao.

"Chen, go by yourself." Meng Qi raised his hand to wipe away his tears, and exited the Changle Hall by himself, with difficulty, he lost Pei Yao again.

After leaving Changle Palace, he did not go back to the Imperial Hospital, but left the palace and returned to the mansion by himself.

Pei's mansion was far away from the palace, deep in the alley, and when he returned to the mansion, his grandmother summoned him to ask about the queen.

Meng Qi couldn't lift his head up, "The marriage certificate is gone."

Grandma froze for a moment, then smiled, "General Pei is still here, just ask him to write another copy."

"General Pei did write a copy, but the queen mother saw it at a glance and kicked me out of Changle Hall." Meng Qi's voice was dull.

The grandmother sighed, "If I were the queen mother, I would open one eye and close the other eye and let you go. But she didn't, it means that she doesn't want to restore the queen's freedom."

Meng Qi bowed his head: "Mother is absolutely right."

The Empress Dowager clearly did it on purpose, or she sent someone to steal the marriage certificate, and then pretended to trick her. From the beginning to the end, the Empress Dowager never thought of letting the Empress out of the palace.

The queen mother is cruel and cruel, how can she know the pain of lovesickness.

****

The new emperor appointed the 14-year-old second prince Li Puyu.

The second prince's biological mother is not as good as Mrs. Li, and has no uncle's family backing, and has always been a transparent existence.His mother died a long time ago, and he has been living alone in the palace.

The servant took him to Jiaofang Hall to show the queen.

Pei Yao has never met the Second Prince, this time the Empress Dowager adopted this child under her name, so that the legitimate son will inherit the throne, and the eldest prince will not be able to object even if he wants to.

The 14-year-old man is very thin, even wearing filial piety clothes looks bulky, and his palm-sized face feels malnourished.

Pei Yao pursed her lips and lowered her eyes, remembering the empress dowager's uncertain expression, she suddenly understood, "Qingzhu, take your majesty to take a bath and cleanse yourself."

"No, no, my son has already washed it when he came." The second prince trembled, his eyes wandered, and he trembled when he heard about the bath.

Pei Yao gasped, "Then change into decent clothes." The first prince was dressed gorgeously, never thought that the second prince would live such a difficult life if his father didn't love his mother.

The second prince's face relaxed now, and he bowed to the queen with his knees on the ground, "I will be filial to the queen in the future."

Pei Yao was suddenly elated, she suddenly had such a big child, she felt very good, she pursed her lips and smiled, "After changing your clothes, I will take you to see the Queen Mother."

Qingzhu took the second prince to change clothes, Pei Yao's smile continued, she was so happy that she felt excited even lying on the couch.

"What is the empress happy about, that she has a cheap son?" The cold voice exploded like fireworks.

Pei Yao sat up abruptly, the corners of her lips smoothed out, she stood up again, and saluted the Queen Mother, "Your Majesty the Queen Mother."

"The empress dowager is used to hearing the word Aijia, and I feel a little sad when I think that I will not belong to Aijia soon." The queen mother raised her foot and stepped across the threshold, her eyes fell on the corner of the queen's lips, "The queen is going to become a queen mother, I feel very happy?"

"Empress Dowager, are you trying to let the Great Khan destroy the country?" Pei Yao thought of the business, who is not good to stand up for, but the second prince.

The queen mother sat down on her couch, glanced at the red plums on the screen, and said with a little regret: "The Ai family did not bring red plums today."

Pei Yao smiled, put aside all business, and quietly approached the Queen Mother, "You like me, don't you?"

"I don't like it, but the Ai family has a small mind, and the queen is not allowed to have other people in her eyes, not even the new emperor." The queen mother raised her eyes, and met the queen's excited eyes, so why not be happy as a queen mother.

Without this obstacle in front of her, she would definitely establish King Yi'an.

There are many disasters for women, and this one is clearly a disaster.

The queen mother felt that she had lost a lot, but she couldn't say it out. After all, she still swallowed the aggrieved breath, but she would not let the queen go so easily.

Warm the couch differently tonight.

Pei Yao felt guilty, she stretched out her hand and pulled the Queen Mother to sit down, squeezed herself beside her, and leaned over.

The queen mother frowned, and the queen took advantage of her again.

"Queen, the second prince is a little girl, don't you know?"

Whispering softly but deeply, the queen mother glanced at the little queen who was facing an enemy, "How do you know that Li Puyu is a little girl, she is clearly the prince."

Pei Yao's hand was still on the Empress Dowager's waist, she stretched out her hand to grab it when she felt nervous, the Empress Dowager frowned, "Take your hand away, it hurts."

"It's useless." Pei Yao withdrew her hand and stared at the Queen Mother's face. For some reason, she suddenly felt very sweet in her heart. She thought of orange candy, got up and ran to the inner hall, and took out a candy box from the cabinet.

It seems that he has completely forgotten the business just now.

Pei Yao made orange candy. The oranges brought in as tribute in winter are very sweet, so they are most suitable for making candy.

Pei Yao made some and put them in sugar boxes, one box contained four or five yuan, she took one box back to the outer hall.

"Queen, try it."

"Is the candy made by the queen edible?" The queen mother frowned, not daring to touch it.

With a piece of candy in her mouth, Pei Yao raised the Empress Dowager's lower jaw, touched the cold corner of her lips, and easily pushed the candy into the Empress Dowager's mouth with the tip of her tongue.

"Is it tasty?"

The sugar has not melted yet, the taste of orange candy is stronger than that made by Guoshi, it has the taste of the queen, it is the sugar that belongs to the queen mother alone.

The queen mother chewed it twice before the sugar melted completely. She looked at the queen and said, "The queen seems to be omnipotent, even sugar can be made."

"The mouth can also eat." Added another sentence, the queen mother suddenly lowered her eyes, and her eyes skipped the queen's waist, as if she had found some fun.

She was able to make up for her losses.

Pei Yao didn't notice, she ate a piece of candy by herself, looked at the Queen Mother, "I'll feed you."

The queen mother frowned: "The Ai family has a cleanliness."

The queen became angry, "You have already eaten several pieces of candy."

"There is still something to do about Ai's family. The queen remembers to take good care of the new emperor. After all, she is your hope for the future." The queen mother calmly got up, took the candy box that the queen put on the table, and said, "The queen should not hide anything."

Pei Yao was extremely angry, just as she was about to take it back, she found that the figure of the Queen Mother had gone far away, "Li, Li..."

Li spent a long time, not knowing how to swear, she only knew that the queen mother's surname was Li, but she didn't know the queen mother's full name.

There is no way to scold people.

****

In the evening, Li Puyu stayed in the central palace, dressed in well-fitting clothes, and entered the main hall to greet the empress.

Tomorrow Li Xu's coffin will be sent to the imperial mausoleum, and there will be many concubines without heirs who will go there together. Mrs. Mei has been pretending to be sick these days in order to escape.

In the early morning of the next day, the coffin went out of the city and was sent to the imperial mausoleum.

The Empress Dowager was sitting in the hall painting, facing the green bamboo, the paintbrush in her hand seemed to take root, and she couldn't draw it no matter what.

After sitting for a long time, Pei Sui came to see him.

The Empress Dowager put down the paintbrush, and some paint was stained on her slender white fingertips. The green was very conspicuous, and the Empress Dowager had to change into new clothes.

When the Empress Dowager entered the palace, Pei Sui had already drunk two cups of tea. He got up to greet the Empress Dowager, "Your Majesty the Empress Dowager."

"The head of state is here." The queen mother signaled Pei Sui to sit down.

Hearing the word Guozhang, Pei Sui's expression was slightly stiff. The next moment, when the queen mother sat down, he had to follow suit.

"The new emperor is the grandson of the country's father-in-law, so the country's father-in-law would like to give the new emperor a big gift." The queen mother's expression was a little leisurely, and she was a little bit at ease giving advice.

Pei Sui is a man. Seeing a woman pointing Jiangshan, he felt a little uncomfortable, "The queen mother wants me to go to Changsha County to wipe out the mob?"

The queen mother smiled slightly, with a slight mockery in her expression, "Isn't this what the head of the country should do?"

Pei Sui stared at the empress dowager's expression, and suddenly felt a pressure in his heart, "The empress dowager let Pei Yao out of the palace, so I went to help your majesty eliminate the rioters."

"Pei Yao is about to be the queen mother and the new emperor's mother, how do you let Aijia let it go?" The queen mother's tone was flat, it could not be said that it was ridicule or perfunctory.

Pei Sui tried his best to suppress his anger, but the hostility accumulated in his eyebrows little by little, he disdainfully said, "The Pei family won't listen to a woman's orders."

The queen mother smiled, and suddenly became interested, she looked at Pei Sui: "But the Pei family listened to a woman's order to send their own daughter into the palace."

Pei Sui is self-willed, somewhat capable, and doesn't know how to adapt.

"The minister has already punished them."

The queen mother did not hide her sarcasm, "The general is not as good as the Taifu. The Taifu listened to a woman and sent the queen to the nunnery. He chose Pei Min, who was born on the same date as the queen, as the daughter of Pei's family. He was willing to be the queen, and the general also I have no objection, but after 17 years, it is too late to come here to act in a father-daughter drama."

Pei Sui was shocked, how did the Queen Mother know that the charlatan was a woman back then, "The Queen Mother checked the Pei family?"

The Empress Dowager said: "When the Ai family is appointed as a heir to the emperor, you have to check it first. The Ai family is not stupid. The general went to Changsha County, and the Ai family was satisfied. If he didn't go, the Ai family would not force it."

When she spoke, she was dignified, cold and joking, making it hard to see what she was thinking.

Even Pei Sui didn't understand what the empress dowager meant, he hesitated, "The empress doesn't have much effect on the empress dowager."

"The empress has ruined Aijia's reputation, so Aijia will naturally settle accounts with her."

"The empress dowager, the empress is young and doesn't know how to like things. Your lord doesn't care about villains, can you let her go?" Pei Sui was a little confused. How can there be feelings between women? If Pei Yao is ignorant, it's possible that the empress dowager doesn't understand either. ?

The Empress Dowager is clearly taking advantage of Pei Yao's ignorance of the world on purpose.

"I can't let it go." The Queen Mother stood up, "Or you can ask the Queen what she means."

The queen mother got up to see off the guests, unwilling to talk any more, Pei Sui had no choice but to leave.

As the sky gradually darkened, Ruoyun moved the pear flower frame painted by the queen mother into the hall, and Gong'e Fulu, who replaced Ruoxi, followed behind her, "The queen mother seems not very happy today."

Fulu has just been transferred, so she doesn't know much about the Queen Mother's habits.

Ruoyun told her: "The empress dowager is quiet, so don't get close to her if you have nothing to do. In addition, if the empress empress comes, you have to be careful and serve her."

Fulu remembered.

The Empress Dowager sat in the hall without saying a word, with a list by her hand.When the new emperor came to the throne, Pei Yao could not stay in Jiaofang Palace, which palace to go to was a problem.

The queen mother thought about it for a long time but didn't think about what was suitable, and finally put it aside, let the queen think about it herself.

****

After the late emperor's coffin left the sleeping hall, the palace staff cleaned inside and out to get rid of the filth, and removed all the decorations that the late emperor liked from the palace. Considering the age of the new emperor, they chose some lively and interesting furniture.

Pei Yao was greeted by Shang Gong for inspection, and Shang Gong handed her the layout plans one by one, "Your Majesty is young, so I moved out all the lifeless decorations, and rearranged some according to His Majesty's preference."

"It's all good." Pei Yao took the compliment, the palace people are busy, moving boxes and cages in and out.

There are many boxes and cages in the hall. She walked over and opened a box at random. There were many scrolls inside. She reached out to take it, and Shang Gong said anxiously, "Your Majesty."

Pei Yao stopped, "What's wrong?"

"Don't look at it." Shang Gong blushed and lowered his eyes.

It's okay if you don't talk about it, but it makes Pei Yao more curious, she knows a little bit, there must be something interesting about Shang Gong.

Regardless of Shang Gong's persuasion, she took out a painting and unfolded it, and Shang Gong instantly turned his back.

Pei Yao smiled, and covered her face with the portrait, she put the portrait down again, pretending nothing happened.

Walking to another place in the hall, Shang Gong breathed a sigh of relief.

After walking a few steps, Pei Yao was curious and couldn't help asking Shang Gong: "Where do these paintings come from?"

Shang Gong lowered his eyes and replied, "It's presented by the painter."

Pei Yao thought of the small picture album, her lips twitched, she can also draw, and present a set to the Queen Mother.

The inspection continued, and she took the opportunity to go through every part of the late emperor's palace, looking for interesting things, but unfortunately, there was nothing except the portraits.

In the end, Pei Yao took all the portraits back to her Jiaofang Palace, but Shang Gong was helpless, fearing that the Queen Mother would find out, so she hurriedly told the Queen Mother.

"The queen took away all the treasures of the late emperor?" The queen mother was a little shocked, how could it be so easy for the little queen to learn to be bad.

Shang Gong knelt down and dared not raise his head, trembling with fright.

The queen mother sat silently, slightly dissatisfied with the queen's actions, but did not show it, and said lightly: "The queen will give her some if she likes it."

Shang Gong was shocked: "I'm afraid the Queen Mother doesn't know the content of the portrait."

"The Ai family knows, you should step back." The queen mother ordered, then she got up, walked to the cabinet, and took out a piece of jade inside.

The queen likes it so much, why not give one to her.

****

The new emperor is about to ascend the throne, and everything is complicated, and troubles are easy to occur in the rough, and the affairs inside and outside the court need to be handled by the queen mother.

Li Puyu stayed in the Jiaofang Palace to be educated, and ate with the queen, and there was no trouble after a few days. The day before his enthronement, Li Puyu became inexplicably irritable.

Pei Yao was sitting under the window painting, feeling a little restless, Li Puyu approached slowly, "What are you drawing?"

"Nothing to do, just practice your hands." Pei Yao was inexplicably guilty, and hurriedly stopped Li Puyu who was about to come.

She can only draw pictures of small people now. Large paintings require more exquisite drawing skills. She hasn't practiced for a long time, and she is somewhat rusty. She is practicing now.

Practice is nothing more than drawing pictures of beauties, these naturally cannot be seen by the little emperor, she wants to save face.

Li Puyu was curious and wanted to take a look at the painting, but when she stretched her head over, the queen held her down, "Why did you come here?"

"My son is leaving tomorrow, and I will miss the empress." Li Puyu was extremely disturbed, thinking of her life experience, she swallowed her saliva, and swallowed back what she was about to say.

Pei Yao was a little surprised, the little emperor felt nostalgic after only a few days, when did human feelings become so worthless.

She threw herself into the queen mother's arms for so long and did not hear the queen mother say a word of concern.

Sure enough, the empress dowager's heart couldn't be covered.

Pei Yao led Li Puyu to the couch, "I'm leaving too. When you marry the queen, I will move to another palace."

"As long as you stay here, I won't marry the queen." The light in Li Puyu's eyes slowly dimmed, but her hand holding the queen became tighter and tighter.

The queen is sincere to her, and the nurse said she is the hope of the future, so the queen will not let her have an accident.

Pei Yao didn't realize what she meant, she just thought it was funny, "You won't succeed if you don't marry, the courtiers will let you marry in the future. It's too early to say that, now you have to listen to the queen mother and be a wise and virtuous king."

"Of course I will work hard to become stronger, so that the queen will not have to worry about the future." Li Puyu became happy, with an inexplicable sense of faith.

Pei Yao vaguely understood something, Li Puyu was similar to herself, lonely and helpless, she felt grateful when she saw someone treat her well.

Kind and helpless.

Pei Yao smiled slightly, and patted the other person's head, "If you have faith, you should put yourself first, and don't be greedy or kill recklessly."

"The queen seems to be speaking Buddhist language." Li Puyu smiled.

"Give it up if you don't understand, and go to rest." Pei Yao didn't bother to explain to her, and ordered Qingzhu to send her back to rest, and then told Qingzhu: "You stay on guard tonight, be more careful."

Qingzhu leaned over to agree, but Li Puyu stared at the queen and said with a smile: "Queen, you are different from other concubines."

The empress has a compassionate temperament, while the other concubines are more or less greedy, the empress speaks and behaves like a bodhisattva in a temple.

Perhaps, the queen has served the Bodhisattva for many years, and she is close to Zhu Zhechi, so she has the smell of a Bodhisattva on her body.

Li Puyu happily followed Qingzhu to rest.

And Pei Yao didn't care about Li Puyu's words at all, then picked up the paintbrush, remembering the empress dowager's demeanor.A cold person, cold and arrogant to the bone, if there is any charm, he must be smoky and beautiful.

Thinking in Pei Yao's heart, the pen in her hand fell away, and she gradually moved towards the empress dowager's posture.

When she came to her senses, the Empress Dowager's expression appeared vividly on the paper, she suddenly stopped, something happened.

She drew the posture of the queen mother lying on the couch, the queen mother would be angry, and she wondered whether she should stay.

Pei Yao was hesitant, wanting to stay in private, pursed the corners of her lips, brushed the Empress Dowager's face on the drawing paper with her slender fingertips, her fingertips suddenly became soft, as if she was really touching the Empress Dowager's face.

The face is alluring, and the posture is elegant.

Pei Yao laughed out loud, and Ruoxiang, who was serving outside, hurried into the hall: "What's wrong, Ma'am?"

"It's okay, it's okay." Pei Yao blocked Ruoyun's sight guiltily, "I'm fine, I'm just copying portraits, you go out, I'll wait by myself, by the way, move that charcoal basin closer."

Ruoxiang did as instructed, thinking that the queen was afraid of the cold, so she didn't think much about it.

After moving the charcoal basin, Ruoxiang backed out, and as soon as she turned around, she saw sister Ruoyun, and when she raised her head, she saw the empress dowager.

"What is the queen doing?" The queen mother took off her cloak and asked Ruoxiang aloud.

Ruoxiang replied in a low voice, "Your Majesty is painting."

"Painting without sleeping in the middle of the night, the queen really has leisure and elegance." The queen mother said, and asked about Li Puyu's situation carefully.

Ruoxiang replied: "Your Majesty is very well, just came to the palace to talk to the Empress for a while, Sister Qingzhu took care of her and went to bed."

"Ai's family is going to meet the queen." The queen mother pushed open the door of the palace, and the heat came in her face, and she stepped in.

"Ruoxiang, didn't I tell you not to come?" Pei Yao poked her head from behind the painting scroll, and suddenly saw that the figure was not right, she didn't even think about it, or her hands were moving faster than her mind, she immediately threw the painting into it In the charcoal basin.

The charcoal fire is strong, and the drawing paper burns as soon as it touches the flames.

When the queen mother came over, she only saw the corners that had not been burned. She reached into the charcoal basin to pick it up, turned it over, and painted it as if it was a robe.

Black sleeves.

There are also traces of green bamboo.

The queen mother frowned, "The queen painted something unseen, sorry for your family?"

"No, copying an ancient site." Pei Yao lied, blushing without heartbeat, instead enthusiastically dragged the Queen Mother to sit on the couch.

The queen mother is not a person who accepts death, so she didn't think about it any more, she threw all the remaining paintings into the charcoal basin and burned them, and then handed the brocade box in her left hand to the queen, "I gave it to you from the Ai family."

"Give it to me?" Pei Yao was inexplicably happy, this time the brocade box was too big, there must be some treasure, she opened it happily and squatted on the spot.

It is a jade statue.

To be precise, it is a jade statue of two people fighting.

Pei Yao understood, and looked at the 'unscrupulous' Queen Mother, "Where did you get it here?"

The person who presented the baby must be blind, and would give such an 'interesting' thing to the Queen Mother, would she want it?

Don't just come and stuff her.

"The Ai family's carvings, compared to the queen's painting skills of drawing villains, how is the Ai family's carving skills?" The queen mother sat on the queen's phoenix couch, touched the brocade quilt, it was very soft.

Pei Yao couldn't believe it, "You carved this?"

She looked at the top of the Queen Mother's head, there were still pink bubbles, colorless.Those who want to be able to carve these things.

Is the Queen Mother omnipotent, or Bubbles can deceive people.

If it wasn't for Bubble's hundred trials, she would have suspected that the Bubble on the Queen Mother's head was pink, and there was no sign of desire.

Pei Yao swallowed, took the jade statue out of the brocade box, and shook it in front of the queen mother, "Do you want to pose like this?"

"The Ai family is not interested. I heard that the queen is studying it, so I came here to give it to you." The queen mother looked sideways, without even looking at it, her eyes were calm and calm.

Pei Yao was disappointed, but she was not discouraged, she put the jade statue back into the brocade box, and sat beside the Queen Mother holding the brocade box, "Would you like to stay tonight?"

"The queen's bed is too hard, Aijia is not used to it." The queen mother got up and was about to leave.

Pei Yao was in a hurry, "If it's too hard, you can spread a few more quilts."

The Empress Dowager looked at her sympathetically, "Stay in mourning at home, the empress warms the couch first."

Pei Yao had a headache, and the next moment the Queen Mother took out the jade statue and a scripture book from the compartment of the brocade box, "The night is long, the queen is not as good as a book reader."

Pei Yao took the jade statue and boldly said: "If you don't go to bed, please come back, Queen Mother."

The author has something to say: Pei Yao: I'm angry!
