Empress dowager, the queen sighed

Pei Yao sat on the couch and took small bites of the crabapple shortbread. After taking a bite, she glanced at Miss Li, curled her lips, and continued to eat.

Her mouth is small, and she relies on her speed to eat. She takes small bites very fast, and she finishes a plate of shortbread in a short while.

Qingzhu handed over the wet towel, she moved her face closer, Li Lexi looked at her: "Is your hand broken?"

Qingzhu's hands trembled, and the wet towel fell on the floor, she hurriedly changed it, Pei Yao was dissatisfied: "I'm the one who made you angry, so what's the matter if you scare my people?"

Li Lexi threw the melody in his hand on the table with a thud, and walked towards the little girl who was not afraid of death, "You still know how to make me angry, have you not endured enough?"

Pei Yao snorted, "You queen is more fierce than me, the emperor."

"It's good to know." Li Lexi stopped halfway, walked back to the desk, and picked up the memorial that had just been left behind as if nothing had happened.

A simple back and forth movement scared all the maids inside and outside the palace to heave a sigh of relief.

Pei Yao was not afraid, instead she squinted her eyes and smiled, leaned on the couch, and joked with Miss Li: "Miss Li, is your wedding dress ready? Let me tell you, don't use the one from a hundred years ago. "

"That one was torn up, it was destroyed a long time ago." Miss Li said calmly, but the situation at that time was thrilling.

She hooked her lips and smiled slightly, and looked up at the beautiful little thing: "Little Highness, what kind of clothes do you think are suitable for me?"

"Don't just say I embroidered it." Pei Yao said vigilantly, Miss Li would set her up every time, uneasy and kind.

"Be smarter. If that's the case, I'll embroider by myself, so I won't have time to work for you." Miss Li hesitated a little, and looked at Pei Yao with the same expression.Pei Yao on the opposite side shrank her head and tried to correct her thoughts: "I'll ask the best embroiderer in Luoyang City to embroider for you, and I guarantee it will be better than yours."

"Although the embroidered by others is good-looking, but after all, it feels a little bit worse. It is not as meaningful as the embroidered by myself." Ms. Li insisted that she had seen it.

Pei Yao nestled on the soft couch and thought about it. Miss Li was just torturing her, and she was not obedient, "Then I choose to review by myself, you can embroider tomorrow, and work first today."

After saying that, Pei Yao hurriedly went down to the ground, and ordered Qingzhu: "Bring all the memorials from the Xuanshi Hall, and then go to deliver the decree. If there is something urgent, report it quickly."

Qingzhu nodded, and left after accepting the order.

Only then did Pei Yao bend her eyes, walked back to the desk with peace of mind, and raised her chin towards Miss Li: "Don't sleep tonight."

"If you are not in the filial piety period, I can tell you not to sleep tonight." Miss Li sneered, grabbed Pei Yao's hand, wrapped her around her waist, and said: "His Royal Highness needs to be better, you promised Li Puyu wants the world to be clean, and you should be lazy."

Pei Yao didn't care, "I'm still young."

Miss Li paused, "You think you're losing weight, you're still young, and if you grow taller, eat more?"

"Then, so what, you are a good housekeeper." Pei Yao justified her grievances, tugged at Miss Li's cuff, and said coquettishly, "With you, everything is safe."

"Lazy." Li Lexi pushed her away, rummaged through the memorials on one side, found a few easy-to-understand ones and handed them to her, threateningly: "You also have to work."

Pei Yao curled her lips, refused to answer, turned her head and was about to leave, Li Lexi whispered: "Miss Pei, it's not good for you, you will be beaten."

Pei Yao stared dryly, then looked back at her, very dissatisfied: "Miss Li, you never thought that being too fierce would make people dislike you and stay away from you."

"You have no progress, so you should be so fierce. Do you know how I trained your father back then?" Miss Li leaned slightly, leaning half of her body on the table, holding her chin with both hands, and looked at the lovely little girl.

Pei Yao felt terrified when she saw her, "You don't know how to beat me, do you?"

Miss Li told Pei Yao seriously and solemnly: "There is a saying, a filial son is born under a stick."

Pei Yao's heart trembled, she hurriedly took the memorial, turned around and ran away, unable to hold back her curiosity, she went back to look at her again: "How many times have you hit him?"

Li Lexi thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "Too many, I don't remember."

"No wonder he doesn't get close to you." Pei Yao muttered, climbed onto her soft couch, sat upright, couldn't hold back her eyes and glanced at the other party again, the corners of her lips curved.

****

On the day of enthronement, the sky was fine and the sky was cloudless.

Pei Yao set off from Weiyang Palace, took a dragon chariot to the Xuanshi Hall to receive worship from all the officials, and then led the officials to the Ancestral Temple.

The Great Wei was newly established, there was no ancestral temple, and the Supreme Emperor was still lying on the couch, keeping everything simple, so she didn't go.

When she was wearing a dragon robe and stepping up the imperial steps step by step, Pei Sui woke up.

He opened his eyes, and saw 'Chu Xi' standing in front of the stage, smiling at Yan Yan, "Your Majesty, you are awake, you should go and see the new emperor enthroned, I heard it is very lively."

Chu Xi's smile was the same as before, warm and loose, with a softness on his body, which was very different from the empress dowager in Pei Yao's impression. He really couldn't imagine how the two could be one person.

He opened his eyes, but found that his whole body could not move, only a pair of eyes could move.

'Chu Xi' smiled lightly, "Even though you are rebellious, I will not kill you as a teacher, so don't worry."

She found a stool, sat down in front of the couch, and stared at Pei Sui: "Pei Sui, actually I help you not because you are my apprentice."

"Are you doing it for Pei Yao?" Pei Sui's face was full of vicissitudes, his voice was extremely hoarse, the master in front of him seemed to be a villain who had planned for many years, and Dun Dun's teachings at the beginning were like a dream.After waking up from the dream, he is a pawn.

Li Lexi didn't deny it, "Yes, it's for Pei Yao. I also want to tell the world that a woman is the emperor. It's not unknown, and the world can still be pacified."

Pei Sui's face was frightened, and he swallowed hard, "Absurd, absurd, people in the world will not believe you."

"Really? Let's wait and see. You will be here to see with your own eyes how the world will be settled, how Pei Yao will become a wise king, and all your beliefs will be overturned."

"There are so many people in the world, why did you choose Pei Yao? She is still a child who doesn't know much about the world. You don't want to be scolded by everyone, so you push her out?" Pei Sui scolded angrily.

Li Lexi stared at him with both eyes, with a sinister smile on the corner of her lips, "Because I owe her this."

"If you owe her, let her be scolded by thousands of people?" Pei Sui looked at his master like a lunatic, and scolded him with unspeakable words: "She should have a complete family, and she will be a husband, a husband, a child, and grandchildren after her age. Around the knee, now, it's all ruined by you."

Li Lexi said: "I didn't go to Pei's house back then, your father listened to others and wanted to kill the newborn Pei Yao. If I didn't go, she would die."

Pei Sui's eyes were dim, and the resentment in his eyes slowly stopped. Li Lexi smiled gracefully and said, "Cause and effect, you do the cause and I will be the consequence."

The hall was silent, and the undercurrent was surging.

Pei Sui's gaze has never left his master. His becoming the emperor is like a big joke. His efforts and following are the most naive ideas in 'Chu Xi'.

"If you don't object to Pei Yao's entry into the court, and you don't have a concubine, maybe you, the emperor, will stay longer. Pei Sui, my connivance has made you what you are today. Similarly, my revenge will also drag you down." I will give it to you, and you will take it. If I don't want to give it to you, you can't even grab it. If it belongs to Pei Yao, you can't even get distracted."

****

Pei Yao felt a little guilty when all the officials paid homage to her. Looking around, they were all the mainstay of the Great Wei. She tried her best to stabilize her emotions.

After the end, she said a few serious words, gathered enough momentum, and said: "The commander of the Imperial Forest Army is still Jing Tuo, and he is responsible for the safety of the palace. Add another coach."

The sparrows in the hall were silent, they didn't look at the emperor, but at Jing Tuo who was protecting the emperor with a knife.

Jing Tuo was not to be underestimated, and they immediately pretended to be dumb. After all, under forceful suppression, they did not dare to comment on the queen's decision.

After no one answered, she smiled and said, "Remove the seal of Xiaoyaohou's mansion, and let Xiaoyaohou take up the post of servant of the Ministry of Industry temporarily."

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's inappropriate. How can the old emperor of the previous dynasty be used again?"

"I have the world in my heart, is it possible that I can't tolerate the old emperor alone?" Pei Yao's face turned cold, her eyes dimmed.

Jing Tuo cleared his throat, felt a little uncomfortable, and coughed lightly, and the hall immediately became quiet again.

Pei Yao chuckled lightly, and said: "If the Qing family has no objection, let the officials pass the decree."

"Your Majesty is wise..."

Everyone gave a weak 'shout', and Pei Yao from Longyi Mountain squinted her eyes, saying that it's useless to reason, it's better to be tough.

She looked at Zhao Kui, and said: "General Zhao is a hero, the gates of Luoyang will be handed over to you, and the school lieutenant Guo Shi failed to defend the city and was demoted to a commoner."

Guo Shi is not in the hall, he is not qualified to enter the hall, his boss is unknown, and he wanted to ask, but after seeing the gentle eyes of the empress, he swallowed back the words in his heart.

Guo Shi must have done something to offend the empress, otherwise the empress would not be liquidated on the day of enthronement, so he silently lowered his head.

Zhao Kui was overwhelmed by the flattery, and quickly knelt down to thank him: "Thank you, Your Majesty, I will definitely guard this city for you and the people."

In the past, the gates of the major cities were guarded by a few school captains, each performing their duties. Now, they are all handed over to Zhao Kui, which means that all the armies under the gates are dominated by him.

Seeing that the captain's responsibilities are not very big, but the addition of multiple ones makes people greedy.

Zhao Kui became the object of everyone's jealousy. Pei Yao took out a list and read it to him. They were all generals who had followed Pei Sui for many years.

Pei Yao said with a smile: "All the generals have worked hard. They have all been promoted to the first rank, and I have rewards for each of them. The gift list will be sent to everyone later. They are all small gifts, so I will make up for them as a meeting gift."

Many generals looked at each other in dismay. It was an uneasy time. The Great Wei was established at the beginning, and there was not much money to reward. Even the Supreme Emperor, after entering the city, it was a simple reward, and there was no generous reward. What would the empress reward?

They were curious, and soon, the empress announced her next court, and the list was sent to them.

After opening the thick gift list, they were surprised from ear to ear, the empress made a big deal.

After each of them looked at each other, there was a little smile in their eyes. They were born in poverty, not because they were greedy for money, but because the money was too important.Parents, wives and children in the family need money to live. Every inch of land in Luoyang City is expensive, and everything you buy needs money.

The empress gave clothes and utensils, as well as a generous sum of money, which was more than a ten-year salary.

They returned to the mansion with the gift list, and the so-called 'meeting ceremony' had also been delivered to the mansion, and it was placed at the gate of the mansion, waiting for the generals to check.

In one day, Luoyang City was shocked.

The empress they talked about was sitting in the side hall, making abacus, anxious and distressed, and the green bamboo on the side looked funny, and reminded her repeatedly: "It's not your money that was spent, Miss Li bought it on her behalf. "

"Her's is mine, and I feel bad about it too." Pei Yao stopped, looking at the thick account books, her heart ached terribly, being an emperor is generous, terribly.

Tomorrow the army will go to battle, but she thinks that Miss Li can be the commander in chief, and there are no brave and strategic generals in the Great Wei at the moment.

Pei Yao rested her chin and sighed, there were several memorials on the case, they were nothing serious, there was no need to deal with them urgently, she wanted to see Miss Li.

Pei Yao did whatever she wanted, and led a group of people to leave Xuanshi Hall in a mighty way, and walked slowly to Weiyang Palace.

Walking on the familiar palace road, she suddenly remembered that she hadn't seen the national teacher Bailishu for a long time. Logically speaking, Bailishu would definitely not be absent when she ascended the throne today.

Will Miss Li really kill her?

If it is really killed, everyone will be happy, and it is a disaster that has lived for so many years.

Her Miss Li sat in the hall and embroidered, which was made of red material.

Pei Yao happily sat beside her, staring at the embroidery in her hand, it was a green bamboo.Pei Yao knew that Miss Li liked green bamboo, and it was deep into her bones, but she didn't seem to see her clothes with green bamboo recently, and when she thought about it carefully, there was no trace of green bamboo on the lapel and cuffs.

She was curious: "Don't you like green bamboo?"

"I don't like it. It's not something I like in the first place. It's just remembering the old man." Li Lexi was expressionless and didn't show much emotion.

Pei Yao stared at her slender fingers passing up and down the embroidery, the needles seemed to stick to the fingertips and would not fall off no matter what, up and down, after a while, the green bamboo leaves appeared.

Pei Yao was stunned, "Chu Yuan likes it?"

Li Lexi didn't answer her.

Pei Yao said to herself: "Have you ever thought that if you find the wrong person, will you regret it?"

"I never do things that I regret." The needle in Li Lexi's hand stopped suddenly, the thread was still wrapped around her fingertips, she raised her head and looked at Pei Yao: "Pei Yao, you are not like Chu Yuan, you are not like Chu Yuan at all. Not like."

Bailishu once said that Pei Yao was very similar to Chu Yuan, but she didn't like Pei Yao.It is said that Chu Yuan cannot be replaced, but what Bailishu still likes is power.

What she likes is only Chu Yuan's emperor status, if Chu Yuan is not the emperor, she will not try her best to get close to him.

After the fake show comes true, liking becomes liking, and this liking is impure.

Pei Yao stared at herself in Miss Li's eyes, "You like me more, or you like her more."

"If I say you two are one, you won't believe it. I might as well tell you that she and I were forced to marry. She snatched me to be the queen and announced it to the world. I have to be her pillow."

Suddenly Pei Yao's eyes lit up: "Did she hit you?"

"No." Li Lexi blushed suddenly, and continued to embroider green bamboo with lowered eyes.

Pei Yao suddenly laughed, covering her eyes with her hands and laughing wantonly, "It is said in the book that Empress Li is gentle and virtuous, she is a lady of every family, but I was thinking, you are sometimes gentle and sometimes fierce, is it the same when you face Chu Yuan? "

"It's much worse." Li Lexi stopped again, but when she looked up, she saw the smile in Pei Yao's eyes, and she suddenly felt relieved.

Pei Yao never cared about her past, what did Pei Yao care about?

Pei Yao and Chu Yuan have always been alone, and the Emperor Sword is the best proof.

Li Lexi looked at the little girl tenderly, opened her mouth slightly, and said, "On the night of the wedding, I beat her and poisoned her."

Pei Yao's eyes widened. As expected of Miss Li, she acted so viciously, she hurriedly asked, "Did Chu Yuan drink?"

"No, she's smart enough to see through my tricks, and instead of drinking the poisonous wine, she pushed me to drink it. The wine is poisonous, so of course I won't drink it." Li Lexi smiled, touched Touching Pei Yao's eyebrows, I felt a burst of vitality, and said with a smile: "She, she didn't ask the crime, she just left. I didn't know that she was a woman. She, I am 19 years old, and I have only been with her for five years." That's all."

Looking back, it is clear that she is the elder, but Chu Yuan is more like a sister.She is arrogant, Chu Yuan is gentle, she is ruthless, but Chu Yuan never cares.

Chu Yuan was brought up very well by her mother.

"Five years, then we have 50 years." Pei Yao suddenly felt a little proud, hugged her softly, put her chin on her shoulder, fantasized about her future life, and whispered: "I will give Chu Yuan I will pay you back what I owe you."

She rubbed Miss Li's side neck, put her whole body against it, and continued: "If you wait for me any longer, remember to like someone else first."

Wait, it is too long.

"Yo, you are much more generous, Chu Yuan doesn't even allow me to look at other people." Li Lexi teased, Pei Yao and Chu Yuan complement each other, and what Chu Yuan lacks can be seen in Pei Yao.

Pei Yao let go of her, looked at her and smiled with crooked eyebrows, and said, "I'm also stingy, and I feel sorry for Yinzi."

She is also stingy, but she can't live forever.

She understood why Miss Li didn't kill the national teacher. The road to longevity is too lonely, so she has to find some fun for herself.

"Did you spend your money? The money I have saved for a hundred years is enough for you to squander." Li Lexi sighed, how could he be so stingy at such a young age, it is possible that he was afraid of poverty in the nunnery.

She thought for a while and said to Pei Yao: "If you become queen soon, I will give you all the money."

Pei Yao was shocked: "If you don't give me your money, who else are you going to give it to?"

"Do you leave it for Bailishu? Or leave it for the little lover in the future?"

"I tell you, I will spend all your money before I die..."

It was too noisy, Li Lexi frowned, and thought of a way to block it with his mouth.

****

The next day when the army went out to battle, they watched Bai Lishu sitting on the horse and yawning, and glanced at the empress on the imperial steps from a distance, and then she went to look for Li Lexi's shadow.

Bailishu was sleepy, she hadn't slept for three days, the goddamn Li Lexi tortured her for three days, provided her with food and drink, but didn't sleep.

She was punished to be a military adviser and serve a young boy.Maotou Xiaozi is 17 years old this year and leads the whole army.

She glanced at the boy, and pulled his heavy armor, "Is Chu Xi your master?"

"No, my master is the commander of Jing Da." The young man's voice was firm and powerful. When he said this, the soldiers around him were stunned. No wonder the empress would find a young man, it was recommended by Jing Tuo.

Baili Shu yawned and patted the boy on the shoulder: "Remember to listen to me, and you will definitely come back alive."

The young man looked at her suspiciously, but he didn't pay attention. There were too many people talking big, so another one came.

Pei Yao sent the young man ten miles outside Luoyang City, and solemnly told him: "Just come back alive, remember, you are also my grandson."

The young man didn't believe it, so another big talker came, and the empress would say big things too, but he didn't expose it, but said respectfully to the empress, "I will not disgrace my mission."

The army left, and Pei Yao led the imperial army back to the city.Halfway through the journey, a cold arrow suddenly shot in midair, Jing Tuo shouted for escort, and threw himself at the Empress without even thinking about it.

When the arrow was ten steps away from Pei Yao, another arrow feather split Leng Jian violently, and the arrow feather went in the direction of Leng Jian.

Jing Tuo gasped, drew his sword and chased in the direction of Leng Jian, while the rest surrounded the empress.

Pei Yao turned her head and saw that Miss Li was right behind her, riding her horse slowly approaching her.

Pei Yao smiled, told her not to care about it, and went back to the city.

The journey was safe and sound, after returning to the palace, Jing Tuo came to confess the crime first, Pei Yao took a look at him, at least she was considered half of his master, and she couldn't treat the native disciples harshly.

"It's nothing serious, just pay attention in the future, let's go down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Jing Tuo was a little surprised, and without asking any further questions, he bent over and retreated.

Pei Yao smiled, and said to the people inside the hall: "The little apprentice is so cute, and the grandson is even cuter."

Li Lexi came out after hearing this shameless words, and looked at her: "Where's your face?"

Pei Yao sent her fair and tender face over, "Here you are, do you want to kiss me?"

"Shameless." Li Lexi said angrily, "That's my apprentice, I have my own punishment."

Pei Yao snorted twice, "He will also call my teacher's wife in the future, so I can't take care of it?"

"That's a good idea." Li Lexi poked her head, pulled her up, and pushed her away, "Go to work, and I'm not allowed to come back before dark. I'm going out of the palace to play, and I won't come back before dark."

"No, let's go play together and come back to work together." Pei Yao refused to leave, and looked at Miss Li pitifully while holding the door of the palace.

The eyes that are full of water seem to have a charm, which makes people easily soften their hearts.

Li Lexi poked her cheek, "I'm going to kill people, are you going?"

Pei Yao's eyelids trembled, her hands loosened from the palace door, a little weak, "Who is it, I killed you for you, did you break the law?"

"You have just rewarded someone generously, so you are going to kill him. Aren't you afraid that the courtiers will criticize you?" Li Lexi was cold-hearted, without Pei Yao's compassion, killing people is the easiest and quickest at this time.

Pei Yao pursed the corners of her lips, she knew in her heart that the past few days were only superficially peaceful.It seems that all the officials are surrendering, but they are just whitewashing the peace. These people are not convinced in their bones.

There were uprisings everywhere, and the Great Wei entered Luoyang first under the control of Li Lexi. Since the rebels were able to build a country, those people would be jealous and follow suit.

Similarly, the people in Luoyang City are also convinced of Wei, and now that they are the empress again, they can't hold back their hearts.

Pei Yao hesitated for a while, then cast a firm gaze on Li Lexi: "Kill the chicken to scare the monkey."

"It's useless if you kill it. It's better to solve it quietly." Li Lexi didn't want to collect any evidence. People's words are terrible. Maybe no one will believe the evidence. It's better to kill it directly. It's easy. .

She glanced at the sky outside: "If you delay any longer, you won't be able to come back before it's too dark."

Pei Yao blinked, stepped over the threshold, leaned softly over, held her cheek and kissed her.

It's sweet to go and do serious business.

The author has something to say: Ms. Li: Trouble!
