Empress dowager, the queen sighed
Chapter 46
The little emperor stood at the door of the kitchen, and ordered the servant to go to Xuanshi Hall to get the memorial, and when the servant left, she heard the conversation inside.
The Empress Dowager said she liked the Empress Dowager.
The little emperor's face was flushed red, and he covered his ears with his hands, desperately trying to forget that sentence.
"No matter how sweet the candy is, it's still not as sweet as you." This is what the Empress Dowager said.
The observers felt a little uncertain, when the Empress Dowager was so heartless and cold, when would she say such emotional words so gently.She didn't believe it, but the voice happened to belong to the Empress Dowager.
With the cold wind blowing, the little emperor felt like he was about to collapse.
"Miss Li, there seems to be something wrong with you today." Pei Yao questioned, Li Lexi is not a good person, and she never repeated what she mocked herself on weekdays.
The Empress Dowager turned around and left.
When she came out, she saw the little emperor who was as dumb as a hen. She smiled, "What is Your Majesty doing?"
"Zhen, I'm waiting for the Empress Dowager." The little emperor's face was frighteningly pale.
The Empress Dowager pretended not to see her strange color, and walked towards the main hall.
After the two sat down, the memorabilia was also delivered. The little emperor trembled in shock and was at a loss. The Empress Dowager flipped through the memorabilia in front of her with her slender fingers, frowned after a few breaths, and said, "Your Majesty even these simplest If you can’t handle them well, you’re still competing with Ai’s family for strength.”
Talk on paper.
The little emperor blushed with embarrassment and was unable to answer. He could hardly believe that the person who had spoken softly to the empress dowager just now was being so mean to her now.
The Empress Dowager dug out several memoirs one after another, all of which were not big or small, and said: "Your Majesty should think about solving it by yourself. If you make a mistake, you can learn a lesson. If you stand still and dare not take a step, you will never grow up."
"What you said is true, I understand." The little emperor was dejected.
The Empress Dowager asked people to take a pen and paper, and wrote down her own opinions, which were clearly marked, and she wrote more than a dozen copies in a row.
The emperor watched it very carefully, and asked any questions in time, and the empress dowager couldn't find any faults, so he sent her back in time.
"Thank you, Empress Dowager." The little emperor was very satisfied, his brows stretched, he smiled gratefully at the Empress Dowager, and led his palace servants away.
The smile on the empress dowager's lips was restrained, Li Puyu was more diligent than the late emperor, and understood the sufferings of the people better than the previous emperor. Given time, he would become a benevolent king.
Pity.
Not long after the emperor left, Pei Yao came in, glanced left and right, "Is your majesty gone?"
"Let's go, is the queen mother reluctant?"
"No." Pei Yao resolutely refused, Miss Li was extremely small-minded.
Qingzhu led the people to bring the noodles out of the food box, and the delicious smell made people's appetite greatly increased. The Empress Dowager was not picky anymore, she picked up the chopsticks and ate them.
There were originally three bowls of noodles, and the emperor was away, so Pei Yao served the emperor's bowl.
After the meal was full, it was rare for the Empress Dowager to talk about something serious, and asked Pei Yao to show the newly repaired patterns in the nunnery.
The nunnery is dilapidated and does not occupy a large area. The backyard is empty and overgrown with weeds. Pei Yao used to catch birds to eat inside.
Here in the backyard, several houses are planned on the drawings, which are magnificent.
Pei Yao smiled, "When will the construction start?"
"Construction has already started, and it will end a year ago." The Empress Dowager stared at the drawings and said, "The Ai family plans to stay here for 17 years."
Pei Yao frowned: "What are you doing in 17 years?" She was dissatisfied with how many 17 years in her life, wasting time, and said, "No, I don't want to go here."
The emotions in the empress dowager's eyes suddenly became complicated, and she focused on the look on the back of the little dowager, "If there is meat every day, will you go?"
Pei Yao smiled, "That can be considered."
"Food." The Empress Dowager said something, her eyes brightened immediately, she stood up and said, "Ai's family is gone."
Pei Yao was reluctant to give up, and chased after two steps, watching Miss Li leave Weiyang Palace.
The morning of the next day was as usual, no one was absent, but there was bad news that Huyang had fallen, not only Huyang, but also Yangzhou, and people from counties and counties all over Yizhou tied up local officials and surrendered to Jingzhou and other places.
Reports from various places continued, the emperor panicked, and even the courtiers fell into a dead silence.
Only the Empress Dowager showed a faint smile, and the corners of her lips curved slightly.
After coming down to court, the courtiers were ashamed, and the Empress Dowager returned to her Changle Hall as usual.
In the afternoon, there was a boiling sound from the palace gate, and a school captain broke into the Changle Hall, "The empress dowager, the eldest prince broke into the palace, leading people to attack the gate."
The empress dowager then slowly put down the miscellaneous notes in her hand, and said, "I'm in a hurry, let the prince come in."
After finishing speaking, he added another sentence: "Ruoyun, prepare tea."
Half an hour later, the man in armor strode closer without fear, and smiled contemptuously, "Is the empress dowager afraid?"
"I'm a little scared." The Empress Dowager smiled lightly.
Ruoyun served two cups of tea and put them in front of the eldest prince, the empress dowager motioned him to drink a cup, but the elder prince said: "The empress dowager's tricks are a bit worse."
But the Empress Dowager said: "Don't you have the courage to come to see Ai's family?"
The eldest prince's heart throbbed when he heard the words, and immediately raised his hand to take a cup of tea, poured half a cup on the ground, and then poured another cup of tea, the two cups of tea were considered to be blended.
"The empress dowager please first." The eldest prince said arrogantly.
The Empress Dowager randomly took a cup and drank it in one gulp, "It's just a cup of tea, and it's worth your nervousness."
Only then did the First Prince heave a sigh of relief, and took the tea, but he didn't drink it, but discussed the conditions with the Empress Dowager.
"In terms of ability, I am better than Li Puyu."
"In terms of military strength, there are [-] soldiers and horses outside the palace, the Empress Dowager, you should consider whether to abolish the emperor and establish a new one."
"I am confident that I can wipe out the rebels. Li Puyu can't do anything. You should see clearly the gap between me and him."
The empress dowager was silent, she didn't agree immediately, but was thinking about it, the eldest prince talked about his own advantages, but he didn't get a response after talking for a long time, he was inexplicably irritable.
While talking, he observed the Empress Dowager's expression, and found that she had no abnormal vision after drinking tea, so he took a sip of tea.
The tea is clear and thirst-quenching.
The Empress Dowager only showed a smile when she saw him drinking tea, and said: "Although the eldest prince is kind, he is self-willed and cruel."
"You..." The eldest prince was extremely angry. He is the proud son of heaven, and he is the most suitable to be an emperor. He took a deep breath, "Since the discussion is not good, I won't talk to the empress dowager. Just wait."
After speaking, he strode away from Changle Hall.
The Empress Dowager sitting on the couch yawned lazily, "Aijia is sleepy."
Ruoyun immediately helped her to rest on the phoenix couch, worried: "Why did your empress let the eldest prince go?"
"He messes around as he wants, and Ai's family can't manage it. It's his ability to break into the palace gate." The Empress Dowager was not worried, she found the couch by the pillow, opened it, and put a piece of candy into her mouth Here, the whole person feels much more comfortable.
"Aijia sleeps."
"Your servant understands." Ruoyun responded, put down the brocade tent, and quietly exited the bedroom.
****
Pei Yao's news came a bit late, and the eldest prince didn't know about the siege of the palace until after he left the palace, and suddenly felt that the shrimp dumplings in his hand were not tasty.
She put down the shrimp dumplings and walked out, Qing Zhu tried to stop her: "Mother, the Empress Dowager is here, you don't have to worry about these things."
"What is the Empress Dowager doing?" Pei Yao stopped in her tracks.
"I don't know, why don't you go and have a look?" Qingzhu suggested.
Pei Yao agreed, Qingzhu immediately went to the hall to get a big cloak and a hand warmer, and the master and servant walked towards Changle Hall.
The wind in winter blew across her cheeks, and it hurt a little. Pei Yao touched her cheeks, and suddenly found that she had become delicate. In the past few years, when she ran around in winter, her face was so cold that she didn't even feel red. Feel.
This year, when I was blown by the wind gently, I actually felt pain.
Pei Yao couldn't believe it, she stopped when she reached Changle Hall, she asked Qingzhu blankly: "Qingzhu, from frugality to extravagance, you said that one day in the future, we will have no shelter, will it be very miserable?"
"Empress, don't worry, you are the noble queen mother of a big man, how could you be in trouble, you think too much." Qingzhu smiled and comforted the little queen mother.
The Han Dynasty has been established for more than 100 years, and it will be ruined overnight.
Pei Yao suddenly remembered the words of the national teacher, the great Han country is in danger.
Is the national teacher scaremongering, or is her calculation correct.The mob captured one city after another, and the Han court was powerless to resist. Is this a precursor to the destruction of the country?
She turned around and left, a servant came running from the end of the palace road, his figure was extremely fast, and soon arrived in front of her eyes, she said happily: "The eldest prince is dead, the eldest prince is dead."
Qingzhu patted his chest and rejoiced, "Look, the Empress Dowager will take care of it, so you don't have to worry about it."
"Qingzhu, let's go to the National Teacher's Mansion." Pei Yao said in a daze.
"Empress Dowager, you are here." Fulu's voice sounded inappropriately.
Pei Yao took back the step that she stepped out, Fu Lu stepped forward, and said with a smile: "Do you want to go in?"
"Go in?" Pei Yao was not sure, she thought for a while, then nodded again: "Just go in and sit down."
When the matter came to an end, Pei Yao backtracked again, and looked down on herself when she moved her legs. When she heard the Empress Dowager, she couldn't move her legs anymore.
Entering the sleeping hall, the Empress Dowager was still lying down with her eyes closed, and when she turned around the carved screen, she saw the brocade tent hanging down. She poked her head quietly, the Empress Dowager was still asleep.
Pei Yao took advantage of the situation and climbed onto the couch, Fulu was amazed by her proficiency.Fulu opened her mouth to say something, but Ruoyun covered her mouth in time and dragged her out.
Ruoyun has served the Empress Dowager for many years, and knows too many of her habits, these little habits have been touched by others before, and the end is very miserable.
However, when meeting the little empress dowager, these habits became decorations. She still couldn't see that many habits of the empress dowager were slowly changing.
It's all because of the little queen mother.
That side was lying on the couch, her toes curled up nervously, looking sideways at the person lying flat, she squinted her eyes and approached, and poked the Empress Dowager's ear with her hand.
"Little Empress Dowager, poke again, Ai's family will chop off your hand." The Empress Dowager opened her eyes, her face turned paler, but she did not look depressed.
Pei Yao laughed, "The eldest prince is dead."
"The Ai family knows that the Ai family is poisoned. He died." The Empress Dowager wrote lightly.
The panic in Pei Yao's eyes flashed past, and she soon calmed down again. She has no right to say anything cruel, the palace is not an easy place to live.
Thirty or so people in the nunnery would still fight. Although it was not life and death, sometimes they would be beaten and punished.
She turned around, lay down flat, and stared at the roof, "Miss Li, the big man destroyed the country, can you and I still live?"
"Why not?" The Empress Dowager closed her eyes again, pressing back the blood that was welling up in her throat again, feeling inexplicably hot, she pushed Pei Yao away subconsciously, "Stay farther away from Ai's house, the Empress Dowager."
Pei Yao refused, instead she stuck to her and whispered in her ear: "Why do you push me away again?"
"Hot." The Empress Dowager struggled to utter a word, her heart felt hot, Pei Yao's breath lingered in her ears, she swallowed sharply, sat up with support, and said: "Pei Yao, Aijia wants to eat candy."
Pei Yao didn't think much, said: "I'll go back and get it."
"Go." The Empress Dowager turned her back and put her eyes on the quilt in the couch, a trace of blood spilled from the corner of her lips.
Pei Yao left, walking very happily, and said to the Queen Mother: "I made you a lot of orange flavored ones, and there are also pears."
As soon as the words were finished, the quilt was stained red, and the Empress Dowager's complexion eased. After resting for a while, she got up and called, "Ruoyun, change clothes."
Ruoyun hurried in, and chose a black phoenix robe according to the Queen Mother's preference. The gold embroidered lapel was shining brightly, and the phoenix on the back hovered in the sky.
After changing clothes, the Empress Dowager ordered Ruoyun: "Clean up the dirt on the couch."
Ruoyun was startled when he saw the blood on the quilt, "Ma'am, do you want to call the imperial physician?"
"It's okay, call all the officials to Xuanshi Hall." The Empress Dowager stared at herself in the bronze mirror, her expression was acceptable, the corners of her lips lost some blood, and she used lip balm again.
After her makeup was decent, she supported the hand of the palace man to board the chariot and headed for Xuanshi Hall.
After Pei Yao came back, she had long since disappeared. She looked at the empty dormitory depressedly. Ruoyun had already taken the quilt out of the couch and washed it.
When she was gone, Pei Yao wanted to leave the palace to find the national teacher.
She was afraid that she would never return, so she led many imperial guards out of the palace in a mighty way, letting everyone in the world know that she was going to see the national teacher.
Feng Nian arrived outside the National Teacher's Mansion, but the National Teacher did not come out to greet her, Pei Yao did not give up and walked into the mansion by herself.
Baili Shu was still fishing, wearing thin clothes, Pei Yao was afraid of the cold, holding a hand warmer in her hand, walked to the National Teacher, said: "National Teacher."
"Your Majesty is late. Don't take it for granted that I have lost my way. I am in a good mood today, and I am able to answer your three questions, all of which are true. If I say the wrong thing in the three questions, I will die a terrible death." The corner of Li Shu's lips twitched into a smile, and he spent all his time staring at the frightened little empress dowager in front of him.
Pei Yao frowned, "You knew I would come?"
Bailishu replied: "This is your first question. The Empress Dowager came to see the minister because she wanted to find a way out for herself. Do you believe what I said, the great Han Dynasty is in danger."
Pei Yao was annoyed that the first question was wasted so much, she thought it over and asked carefully: "How much time does Dahan Jiangshan have?"
"In a hundred days, Jingzhou's soldiers and horses have arrived in Huyang, not to mention that people from all over the country followed Jingzhou's example and rose up. A hundred days is a long time." Baili Shu knew that it was a little strange, and the smile on his lips did not diminish at all, "This is your first Two questions."
Pei Yao shut up, can Baili Shu believe it?Will he be a charlatan like himself?
After a long silence, Bailishu's fishing rod moved, but she didn't. Pei Yao couldn't help reminding: "The fish bit the hook."
Baili Shu still didn't move, but instead reminded Pei Yao: The fish I want has already bit the hook, so I don't want this fish anymore. "
"It's weird." Pei Yao muttered, the more mysterious the more untrustworthy she was, she didn't dare to believe it, and she didn't dare not to believe it. After thinking about it, she asked her: "Who wants to win the world?"
"I can't answer this, it will damage the life of the empress, and the life of the empress will not be more than eighteen." Bailishu chuckled twice.
Pei Yao sneered, "I never believe in anything wrong."
"Let me send you a question. When you were born, I played chess with the old matriarch in Pei's mansion. I said that you are the fate of the phoenix, the fate of heaven. The old matriarch is very happy, and the minister also told the old matriarch that you are also a disaster." The fate of the country. The old master was at a loss. At this time, a female Taoist priest came and concluded that you were unknown, and the old master wanted to kill you. The female Taoist told him that the blood on your body needs to be washed in front of the Buddha. Clean." Baili Shu looked seriously at Pei Yao in front of him.
The reincarnation of the last emperor?It's a joke, how decisive was the last emperor in killing, how could the three armies fight in front of the battle without changing their expressions, how could he be as cowardly as Pei Yao.
Bailishu didn't believe Li Lexi's calculations, but when it came to calculations and exercises, she was the king.
Pei Yao was seriously examining the Bailishu in front of her, but she was only in her twenties, 17 years ago she was only ten years old, can she play chess with the Taifu?
I'm afraid they will be kicked out before they can touch the chessboard.
Pei Yao didn't believe her, and she didn't expose it immediately. She glanced at Baili Shu, thinking about how to end this conversation.
At this time, Bailishu looked at Pei Yao silently, and suddenly smiled, Pei Yao was numb from the laughter, "What are you laughing at?"
"You look similar to Chu Yuan, the last emperor of Qi, but I forgot her appearance in the past 130 years. It wasn't until a month ago when I opened the old picture album that I realized that you two are very similar. Perhaps this is the reason why the Empress Dowager favors you." Baili Shu explained with 'kindness'.
Pei Yao's heart trembled, she tightly pursed the corners of her lips, rolled her eyes, did not refute, but said: "My third question, where was that female Taoist priest back then?"
"Female Taoist..." Bailishu laughed harshly, and looked at Pei Yao with a hint of compassion, "Pei Yao, Pei Yao, you have the face of the last emperor, but you don't have the brain of the last emperor. It's a pity, let me tell you, if you go to your grandmother with the portrait of the Empress Dowager, she will tell you."
Pei Yao's eyelids twitched, "You want to say that the Taoist priest is the Empress Dowager?" She also laughed, the Empress Dowager is 24 years old this year, and she was only seven or eight years old 17 years ago, how could she be a Taoist priest.
Liar, liar.Pei Yao cursed silently in her heart, then turned around and left, it was really kicked in the head by a donkey to walk like this.
The little queen mother wanted to leave with righteous indignation, Bailishu got up, and said to the back: "Little queen mother, the queen mother is invulnerable to all poisons, because she took the elixir of longevity."
Pei Yao stopped in her tracks, her eyes glowed, "Is there any more medicine for longevity?"
Bailishu: "..." The point is wrong.
"No more, there are only two medicines, and the person who developed the medicine has long since died."
Pei Yao stared dryly, "Without medicine, I wouldn't believe you."
Bailishu has a headache, the little queen mother is pure nonsense, she has no brains at all, if she is looking for some longevity medicine at this time, shouldn't she go to Pei's mansion to verify it?
Pei Yao lowered her head, her expression was not very good, she stepped on the ground under her feet, and then glanced at her, "You are a magic stick."
She thought, after leaving the palace for so long, now it's time to go back, she glanced at the national teacher, "Will you go and join the tyrants in Jingzhou?"
The corner of Bailishu's lips was stained with the most enthusiastic smile, looking at the skirt on Pei Yao's body, the primrose-colored pair of breasts, and the pink color showed a bit of innocence. It can be seen that Pei Yao, under the protection of Li Lexi, do not understand anything.
What exactly does Li Lexi want to do?
Bai Lishu had guessed countless times, but as the ancestor of the Li family, he married his descendant, messing up the seniority, Li Lexi's thoughts were unpredictable.
But I won't suffer. Since the big Han soldiers are hopeless, I will go to Jingzhou and do my part for them.
Bailishu's smile made Pei Yao feel that she was sick, purely sick, so scared that she lifted the hem of her skirt and ran away.
After running out of the Imperial Teacher's Mansion, Pei Yao went straight back to the palace by car, entered through the west gate, and did not meet the Imperial Forest Army who were clearing out the rebels at the upper east gate.
The palace to the west is where the former emperors and concubines lived. For some reason, the palace carriage passed by the palace road today, and there was not a single person in sight.
The wheels of the cart rolled over the palace road, leaving a trace, which stretched to Weiyang Palace.
Meng Qi's thin figure came into view.
After Pei Yao got off the car, he came straight over with a bad look on his face, "Chen Mengqi has seen the empress dowager."
"Physician Meng came to diagnose Ping'an pulse?" Pei Yao didn't have much energy, especially arguing with a lunatic was very tiring.
Meng Qi looked at her words and knew that she was in a bad mood, so he took out a porcelain bottle from the medicine box and handed it to her, "This medicine can make the empress dowager feel better."
Pei Yao raised her face and looked directly at Meng Qi, who smiled at her, "I won't harm your mother."
"Is this sugar?" Pei Yao took the porcelain bottle, uncorked it and smelled it. There was a sweet smell inside. She looked at Meng Qi, "What is this made of? It seems a little sour."
Meng Qi smiled, "There are hawthorns in it, which can be appetizing."
Pei Yao dubiously ate one, half of which was sweet and sour, not purely sweet, she squinted her eyes and smiled, "Sweet and sour."
Meng Qi pursed his lips and smiled, and curled up his hand holding the medicine box excitedly, "Empress Dowager, Rong Chen will diagnose your pulse."
"No need, I'm fine." Pei Yao refused, the empress dowager's jealousy was so small-minded, she would cause trouble.She waved her hand at Meng Qi, "Thank you for the candy, let's go back quickly."
His tone and attitude were much better than before. Meng Qi was very satisfied and didn't make any trouble. He bowed to the little queen mother and turned to leave.
Pei Yao left holding the porcelain bottle, and when she entered the hall, she saw Miss Li standing under the window.
"You're here." Pei Yao was not surprised either, the two palaces are so close, it only took a moment to come, she walked up to Miss Li, "Miss Li, do you want some candy?"
The empress dowager didn't go to pick her up, her eyes fell on Pei Yao's body, "17 years ago, I went to Pei's mansion and told Old Madam Pei that the newborn baby's life was inauspicious."
"17 years ago?" Pei Yao smiled, poured a candy from the porcelain bottle into her mouth, and said vaguely, "You were only seven years old 17 years ago, would the old man believe what you said?"
"That's right, the Ai family has lived for more than 100 years, are you afraid?" The Empress Dowager took a step forward, touching the corner of the Empress Dowager's lips as usual.
Pei Yao took a step back, showing a trace of panic in her expression, avoiding the palm of the Empress Dowager, and stuffed another candy into her mouth, so sour that she shed tears, "How can anyone live so many years in the world, the Empress Dowager Is Pei Yao a fool who can be fooled at will?"
The author has something to say: The empress dowager finally overturned, let's see her reflection process and the way to save her.
You never thought that the Last Emperor would also see desire.Hope?
The red envelopes were sent out in front.
感谢在2021-08-0418:18:41~2021-08-0517:28:19期间为我投出霸王票或灌溉营养液的小天使哦~
The Empress Dowager said she liked the Empress Dowager.
The little emperor's face was flushed red, and he covered his ears with his hands, desperately trying to forget that sentence.
"No matter how sweet the candy is, it's still not as sweet as you." This is what the Empress Dowager said.
The observers felt a little uncertain, when the Empress Dowager was so heartless and cold, when would she say such emotional words so gently.She didn't believe it, but the voice happened to belong to the Empress Dowager.
With the cold wind blowing, the little emperor felt like he was about to collapse.

"What you said is true, I understand." The little emperor was dejected.
The Empress Dowager asked people to take a pen and paper, and wrote down her own opinions, which were clearly marked, and she wrote more than a dozen copies in a row.
The emperor watched it very carefully, and asked any questions in time, and the empress dowager couldn't find any faults, so he sent her back in time.
"Thank you, Empress Dowager." The little emperor was very satisfied, his brows stretched, he smiled gratefully at the Empress Dowager, and led his palace servants away.
The smile on the empress dowager's lips was restrained, Li Puyu was more diligent than the late emperor, and understood the sufferings of the people better than the previous emperor. Given time, he would become a benevolent king.

Not long after the emperor left, Pei Yao came in, glanced left and right, "Is your majesty gone?"
"Let's go, is the queen mother reluctant?"

The nunnery is dilapidated and does not occupy a large area. The backyard is empty and overgrown with weeds. Pei Yao used to catch birds to eat inside.
Here in the backyard, several houses are planned on the drawings, which are magnificent.
Pei Yao smiled, "When will the construction start?"
"Construction has already started, and it will end a year ago." The Empress Dowager stared at the drawings and said, "The Ai family plans to stay here for 17 years."
Pei Yao frowned: "What are you doing in 17 years?" She was dissatisfied with how many 17 years in her life, wasting time, and said, "No, I don't want to go here."
The emotions in the empress dowager's eyes suddenly became complicated, and she focused on the look on the back of the little dowager, "If there is meat every day, will you go?"
Pei Yao smiled, "That can be considered."
"Food." The Empress Dowager said something, her eyes brightened immediately, she stood up and said, "Ai's family is gone."
Pei Yao was reluctant to give up, and chased after two steps, watching Miss Li leave Weiyang Palace.
The morning of the next day was as usual, no one was absent, but there was bad news that Huyang had fallen, not only Huyang, but also Yangzhou, and people from counties and counties all over Yizhou tied up local officials and surrendered to Jingzhou and other places.

In the afternoon, there was a boiling sound from the palace gate, and a school captain broke into the Changle Hall, "The empress dowager, the eldest prince broke into the palace, leading people to attack the gate."
The empress dowager then slowly put down the miscellaneous notes in her hand, and said, "I'm in a hurry, let the prince come in."
After finishing speaking, he added another sentence: "Ruoyun, prepare tea."
Half an hour later, the man in armor strode closer without fear, and smiled contemptuously, "Is the empress dowager afraid?"
"I'm a little scared." The Empress Dowager smiled lightly.
Ruoyun served two cups of tea and put them in front of the eldest prince, the empress dowager motioned him to drink a cup, but the elder prince said: "The empress dowager's tricks are a bit worse."

The Empress Dowager sitting on the couch yawned lazily, "Aijia is sleepy."
Ruoyun immediately helped her to rest on the phoenix couch, worried: "Why did your empress let the eldest prince go?"
"He messes around as he wants, and Ai's family can't manage it. It's his ability to break into the palace gate." The Empress Dowager was not worried, she found the couch by the pillow, opened it, and put a piece of candy into her mouth Here, the whole person feels much more comfortable.
"Aijia sleeps."
"Your servant understands." Ruoyun responded, put down the brocade tent, and quietly exited the bedroom.
****
Pei Yao's news came a bit late, and the eldest prince didn't know about the siege of the palace until after he left the palace, and suddenly felt that the shrimp dumplings in his hand were not tasty.
She put down the shrimp dumplings and walked out, Qing Zhu tried to stop her: "Mother, the Empress Dowager is here, you don't have to worry about these things."
"What is the Empress Dowager doing?" Pei Yao stopped in her tracks.
"I don't know, why don't you go and have a look?" Qingzhu suggested.
Pei Yao agreed, Qingzhu immediately went to the hall to get a big cloak and a hand warmer, and the master and servant walked towards Changle Hall.
The wind in winter blew across her cheeks, and it hurt a little. Pei Yao touched her cheeks, and suddenly found that she had become delicate. In the past few years, when she ran around in winter, her face was so cold that she didn't even feel red. Feel.
This year, when I was blown by the wind gently, I actually felt pain.
Pei Yao couldn't believe it, she stopped when she reached Changle Hall, she asked Qingzhu blankly: "Qingzhu, from frugality to extravagance, you said that one day in the future, we will have no shelter, will it be very miserable?"
"Empress, don't worry, you are the noble queen mother of a big man, how could you be in trouble, you think too much." Qingzhu smiled and comforted the little queen mother.
The Han Dynasty has been established for more than 100 years, and it will be ruined overnight.
Pei Yao suddenly remembered the words of the national teacher, the great Han country is in danger.
Is the national teacher scaremongering, or is her calculation correct.The mob captured one city after another, and the Han court was powerless to resist. Is this a precursor to the destruction of the country?
She turned around and left, a servant came running from the end of the palace road, his figure was extremely fast, and soon arrived in front of her eyes, she said happily: "The eldest prince is dead, the eldest prince is dead."
Qingzhu patted his chest and rejoiced, "Look, the Empress Dowager will take care of it, so you don't have to worry about it."
"Qingzhu, let's go to the National Teacher's Mansion." Pei Yao said in a daze.
"Empress Dowager, you are here." Fulu's voice sounded inappropriately.
Pei Yao took back the step that she stepped out, Fu Lu stepped forward, and said with a smile: "Do you want to go in?"
"Go in?" Pei Yao was not sure, she thought for a while, then nodded again: "Just go in and sit down."
When the matter came to an end, Pei Yao backtracked again, and looked down on herself when she moved her legs. When she heard the Empress Dowager, she couldn't move her legs anymore.
Entering the sleeping hall, the Empress Dowager was still lying down with her eyes closed, and when she turned around the carved screen, she saw the brocade tent hanging down. She poked her head quietly, the Empress Dowager was still asleep.
Pei Yao took advantage of the situation and climbed onto the couch, Fulu was amazed by her proficiency.Fulu opened her mouth to say something, but Ruoyun covered her mouth in time and dragged her out.
Ruoyun has served the Empress Dowager for many years, and knows too many of her habits, these little habits have been touched by others before, and the end is very miserable.
However, when meeting the little empress dowager, these habits became decorations. She still couldn't see that many habits of the empress dowager were slowly changing.
It's all because of the little queen mother.
That side was lying on the couch, her toes curled up nervously, looking sideways at the person lying flat, she squinted her eyes and approached, and poked the Empress Dowager's ear with her hand.
"Little Empress Dowager, poke again, Ai's family will chop off your hand." The Empress Dowager opened her eyes, her face turned paler, but she did not look depressed.
Pei Yao laughed, "The eldest prince is dead."
"The Ai family knows that the Ai family is poisoned. He died." The Empress Dowager wrote lightly.
The panic in Pei Yao's eyes flashed past, and she soon calmed down again. She has no right to say anything cruel, the palace is not an easy place to live.
Thirty or so people in the nunnery would still fight. Although it was not life and death, sometimes they would be beaten and punished.
She turned around, lay down flat, and stared at the roof, "Miss Li, the big man destroyed the country, can you and I still live?"
"Why not?" The Empress Dowager closed her eyes again, pressing back the blood that was welling up in her throat again, feeling inexplicably hot, she pushed Pei Yao away subconsciously, "Stay farther away from Ai's house, the Empress Dowager."
Pei Yao refused, instead she stuck to her and whispered in her ear: "Why do you push me away again?"
"Hot." The Empress Dowager struggled to utter a word, her heart felt hot, Pei Yao's breath lingered in her ears, she swallowed sharply, sat up with support, and said: "Pei Yao, Aijia wants to eat candy."
Pei Yao didn't think much, said: "I'll go back and get it."
"Go." The Empress Dowager turned her back and put her eyes on the quilt in the couch, a trace of blood spilled from the corner of her lips.
Pei Yao left, walking very happily, and said to the Queen Mother: "I made you a lot of orange flavored ones, and there are also pears."
As soon as the words were finished, the quilt was stained red, and the Empress Dowager's complexion eased. After resting for a while, she got up and called, "Ruoyun, change clothes."
Ruoyun hurried in, and chose a black phoenix robe according to the Queen Mother's preference. The gold embroidered lapel was shining brightly, and the phoenix on the back hovered in the sky.
After changing clothes, the Empress Dowager ordered Ruoyun: "Clean up the dirt on the couch."
Ruoyun was startled when he saw the blood on the quilt, "Ma'am, do you want to call the imperial physician?"
"It's okay, call all the officials to Xuanshi Hall." The Empress Dowager stared at herself in the bronze mirror, her expression was acceptable, the corners of her lips lost some blood, and she used lip balm again.
After her makeup was decent, she supported the hand of the palace man to board the chariot and headed for Xuanshi Hall.
After Pei Yao came back, she had long since disappeared. She looked at the empty dormitory depressedly. Ruoyun had already taken the quilt out of the couch and washed it.
When she was gone, Pei Yao wanted to leave the palace to find the national teacher.
She was afraid that she would never return, so she led many imperial guards out of the palace in a mighty way, letting everyone in the world know that she was going to see the national teacher.
Feng Nian arrived outside the National Teacher's Mansion, but the National Teacher did not come out to greet her, Pei Yao did not give up and walked into the mansion by herself.
Baili Shu was still fishing, wearing thin clothes, Pei Yao was afraid of the cold, holding a hand warmer in her hand, walked to the National Teacher, said: "National Teacher."
"Your Majesty is late. Don't take it for granted that I have lost my way. I am in a good mood today, and I am able to answer your three questions, all of which are true. If I say the wrong thing in the three questions, I will die a terrible death." The corner of Li Shu's lips twitched into a smile, and he spent all his time staring at the frightened little empress dowager in front of him.
Pei Yao frowned, "You knew I would come?"
Bailishu replied: "This is your first question. The Empress Dowager came to see the minister because she wanted to find a way out for herself. Do you believe what I said, the great Han Dynasty is in danger."
Pei Yao was annoyed that the first question was wasted so much, she thought it over and asked carefully: "How much time does Dahan Jiangshan have?"
"In a hundred days, Jingzhou's soldiers and horses have arrived in Huyang, not to mention that people from all over the country followed Jingzhou's example and rose up. A hundred days is a long time." Baili Shu knew that it was a little strange, and the smile on his lips did not diminish at all, "This is your first Two questions."
Pei Yao shut up, can Baili Shu believe it?Will he be a charlatan like himself?
After a long silence, Bailishu's fishing rod moved, but she didn't. Pei Yao couldn't help reminding: "The fish bit the hook."
Baili Shu still didn't move, but instead reminded Pei Yao: The fish I want has already bit the hook, so I don't want this fish anymore. "
"It's weird." Pei Yao muttered, the more mysterious the more untrustworthy she was, she didn't dare to believe it, and she didn't dare not to believe it. After thinking about it, she asked her: "Who wants to win the world?"
"I can't answer this, it will damage the life of the empress, and the life of the empress will not be more than eighteen." Bailishu chuckled twice.
Pei Yao sneered, "I never believe in anything wrong."
"Let me send you a question. When you were born, I played chess with the old matriarch in Pei's mansion. I said that you are the fate of the phoenix, the fate of heaven. The old matriarch is very happy, and the minister also told the old matriarch that you are also a disaster." The fate of the country. The old master was at a loss. At this time, a female Taoist priest came and concluded that you were unknown, and the old master wanted to kill you. The female Taoist told him that the blood on your body needs to be washed in front of the Buddha. Clean." Baili Shu looked seriously at Pei Yao in front of him.
The reincarnation of the last emperor?It's a joke, how decisive was the last emperor in killing, how could the three armies fight in front of the battle without changing their expressions, how could he be as cowardly as Pei Yao.
Bailishu didn't believe Li Lexi's calculations, but when it came to calculations and exercises, she was the king.
Pei Yao was seriously examining the Bailishu in front of her, but she was only in her twenties, 17 years ago she was only ten years old, can she play chess with the Taifu?
I'm afraid they will be kicked out before they can touch the chessboard.
Pei Yao didn't believe her, and she didn't expose it immediately. She glanced at Baili Shu, thinking about how to end this conversation.
At this time, Bailishu looked at Pei Yao silently, and suddenly smiled, Pei Yao was numb from the laughter, "What are you laughing at?"
"You look similar to Chu Yuan, the last emperor of Qi, but I forgot her appearance in the past 130 years. It wasn't until a month ago when I opened the old picture album that I realized that you two are very similar. Perhaps this is the reason why the Empress Dowager favors you." Baili Shu explained with 'kindness'.
Pei Yao's heart trembled, she tightly pursed the corners of her lips, rolled her eyes, did not refute, but said: "My third question, where was that female Taoist priest back then?"
"Female Taoist..." Bailishu laughed harshly, and looked at Pei Yao with a hint of compassion, "Pei Yao, Pei Yao, you have the face of the last emperor, but you don't have the brain of the last emperor. It's a pity, let me tell you, if you go to your grandmother with the portrait of the Empress Dowager, she will tell you."
Pei Yao's eyelids twitched, "You want to say that the Taoist priest is the Empress Dowager?" She also laughed, the Empress Dowager is 24 years old this year, and she was only seven or eight years old 17 years ago, how could she be a Taoist priest.
Liar, liar.Pei Yao cursed silently in her heart, then turned around and left, it was really kicked in the head by a donkey to walk like this.
The little queen mother wanted to leave with righteous indignation, Bailishu got up, and said to the back: "Little queen mother, the queen mother is invulnerable to all poisons, because she took the elixir of longevity."
Pei Yao stopped in her tracks, her eyes glowed, "Is there any more medicine for longevity?"
Bailishu: "..." The point is wrong.
"No more, there are only two medicines, and the person who developed the medicine has long since died."
Pei Yao stared dryly, "Without medicine, I wouldn't believe you."
Bailishu has a headache, the little queen mother is pure nonsense, she has no brains at all, if she is looking for some longevity medicine at this time, shouldn't she go to Pei's mansion to verify it?
Pei Yao lowered her head, her expression was not very good, she stepped on the ground under her feet, and then glanced at her, "You are a magic stick."
She thought, after leaving the palace for so long, now it's time to go back, she glanced at the national teacher, "Will you go and join the tyrants in Jingzhou?"
The corner of Bailishu's lips was stained with the most enthusiastic smile, looking at the skirt on Pei Yao's body, the primrose-colored pair of breasts, and the pink color showed a bit of innocence. It can be seen that Pei Yao, under the protection of Li Lexi, do not understand anything.
What exactly does Li Lexi want to do?
Bai Lishu had guessed countless times, but as the ancestor of the Li family, he married his descendant, messing up the seniority, Li Lexi's thoughts were unpredictable.
But I won't suffer. Since the big Han soldiers are hopeless, I will go to Jingzhou and do my part for them.
Bailishu's smile made Pei Yao feel that she was sick, purely sick, so scared that she lifted the hem of her skirt and ran away.
After running out of the Imperial Teacher's Mansion, Pei Yao went straight back to the palace by car, entered through the west gate, and did not meet the Imperial Forest Army who were clearing out the rebels at the upper east gate.
The palace to the west is where the former emperors and concubines lived. For some reason, the palace carriage passed by the palace road today, and there was not a single person in sight.
The wheels of the cart rolled over the palace road, leaving a trace, which stretched to Weiyang Palace.
Meng Qi's thin figure came into view.
After Pei Yao got off the car, he came straight over with a bad look on his face, "Chen Mengqi has seen the empress dowager."
"Physician Meng came to diagnose Ping'an pulse?" Pei Yao didn't have much energy, especially arguing with a lunatic was very tiring.
Meng Qi looked at her words and knew that she was in a bad mood, so he took out a porcelain bottle from the medicine box and handed it to her, "This medicine can make the empress dowager feel better."
Pei Yao raised her face and looked directly at Meng Qi, who smiled at her, "I won't harm your mother."
"Is this sugar?" Pei Yao took the porcelain bottle, uncorked it and smelled it. There was a sweet smell inside. She looked at Meng Qi, "What is this made of? It seems a little sour."
Meng Qi smiled, "There are hawthorns in it, which can be appetizing."
Pei Yao dubiously ate one, half of which was sweet and sour, not purely sweet, she squinted her eyes and smiled, "Sweet and sour."
Meng Qi pursed his lips and smiled, and curled up his hand holding the medicine box excitedly, "Empress Dowager, Rong Chen will diagnose your pulse."
"No need, I'm fine." Pei Yao refused, the empress dowager's jealousy was so small-minded, she would cause trouble.She waved her hand at Meng Qi, "Thank you for the candy, let's go back quickly."
His tone and attitude were much better than before. Meng Qi was very satisfied and didn't make any trouble. He bowed to the little queen mother and turned to leave.
Pei Yao left holding the porcelain bottle, and when she entered the hall, she saw Miss Li standing under the window.
"You're here." Pei Yao was not surprised either, the two palaces are so close, it only took a moment to come, she walked up to Miss Li, "Miss Li, do you want some candy?"
The empress dowager didn't go to pick her up, her eyes fell on Pei Yao's body, "17 years ago, I went to Pei's mansion and told Old Madam Pei that the newborn baby's life was inauspicious."
"17 years ago?" Pei Yao smiled, poured a candy from the porcelain bottle into her mouth, and said vaguely, "You were only seven years old 17 years ago, would the old man believe what you said?"
"That's right, the Ai family has lived for more than 100 years, are you afraid?" The Empress Dowager took a step forward, touching the corner of the Empress Dowager's lips as usual.
Pei Yao took a step back, showing a trace of panic in her expression, avoiding the palm of the Empress Dowager, and stuffed another candy into her mouth, so sour that she shed tears, "How can anyone live so many years in the world, the Empress Dowager Is Pei Yao a fool who can be fooled at will?"
The author has something to say: The empress dowager finally overturned, let's see her reflection process and the way to save her.
You never thought that the Last Emperor would also see desire.Hope?
The red envelopes were sent out in front.
