Empress and Empress

He Di was walking on the road of Taiye Pond, he felt as if he hadn't looked at the pond properly for a long time.The autumn wind has already blown the lotus down, and the leaves on the book also fell one by one.The weather was fine, there were no clouds in the sky, and the sky was blue.

"It seems that I haven't seen this Taiye Pond for a long time." He Di said.

"Your Majesty, where did you start with this? A few days ago, you swam the Taiye Pond with Empress Defei." Zhang Ping said.As the chief servant, Zhang Ping was in charge of all the important affairs in the palace, and he had a friendship with Emperor He for many years, even though he didn't dare to overdo it, he was much closer than other servants and even many ministers.

As he was walking, He Di found that he had come to the door of Lenggong. He stopped, and an inexplicable look flashed in his eyes, which seemed sad or angry, but also had a trace of despair and unwillingness.

Zhang Ping has followed Emperor He for many years, and he knew that Emperor He would stop for a while almost every time he passed by the bedroom. He stopped three steps behind Emperor He so that he could hear Emperor He's summons at any time, and Not too close.Zhang Ping stopped, and the guard of honor behind him also stopped naturally.

He Di pondered for a moment, then continued walking.When he got to the bedroom, he turned in.Zhang Ping stayed outside the palace door, waiting for Emperor He.

Emperor He's bedroom was never approached by anyone, and outside the bedroom was protected by many experts, no one knew what was in Emperor He's bedroom, the most rumored one was the portrait of Concubine Shu Qi.Zhang Ping knew that although Emperor He didn't go back to the bedroom often, it took him a long time to come out every time.

Sure enough, it was close to noon when He Di went in, and he didn't summon lunch, so he didn't come out until the sun was setting. He Di was exhausted when he came out. He waved his hand, "Go to Yunxi --- go to Changchun Palace."

Yuan Xingye didn't expect that Emperor He would come. She was in a daze by the pool. The pool was full of lotus flowers made of jade, big and small. They were carved with high-quality blue field jade, so lifelike.It was sent by the people from the Palace Bureau a few days after the foot restraint order, and Yuan Xingye did not refuse.

What He Di saw was this scene. Yuan Xingye stood by the pool and watched the lotus pondering.Simple bundling of hair, simple black clothes with purple and gold trim, but people can't look away.

Emperor He stopped Zhang Ping from yelling the words "The Holy Majesty is here". Just looking at Yuan Xingye like this, the headache he had suffered for many days seemed to be much better.Luo Yan also naturally saw He Di, she stood aside with lowered eyebrows and lowered her eyes, not saying a word.

"When did His Majesty come, why don't you let me know." Yuan Xingye saw Emperor He and bowed down.

"I don't need to be too polite to my concubine." He Di smiled, showing no expression, he pulled Yuan Xingye to sit down in the courtyard, "I have nothing to do, so I want to come and see my concubine."

Luoyan replaced the cold tea in Yuan Xingye's hand, and ordered the court lady to bring melon and fruit drinks.He Di looked at Yuan Xingye, the confinement these days didn't seem to have any effect on her, her gentle and indifferent temperament, her calm and distant eyes, and even the smile on her lips were the same as before. Confinement does not exist.

"I know I have wronged my concubine." He Di said.

"Your Majesty is wise, I don't feel wronged by His Majesty's words." Yuan Xingye said, "The concubine is not familiar with the affairs in the palace, and it is inevitable that he did not take precautions. This incident is also a lesson for the concubine." Although He Di sent someone to investigate, they found nothing. Of course, He Di's intention was just to put on a show.

He Di smiled and took Yuan Xingye's hand. "I sent people to investigate. The poison was originally on the jade cup. Maybe it was put on it by the predecessors. It is out of good intentions for the beloved concubine to give it to the concubine De. I understand. Tomorrow, the foot ban will be lifted." The last sentence said It was to Zhang Ping.

After talking a lot with Yuan Xingye, when it was time for dinner, He Di stayed for dinner, only to feel his headache worsened, so he ate some in a hurry and left.

Yuan Xingye watched He Di leave, thought for a moment, and then said to Luo Yan. "I'm tired, pack up and get ready for bed."

After Yuan Xingye fell asleep, the entire Changchun Palace also fell into silence. The maids and servants all ran together and whispered together, and laughter came out from time to time.It was still early, and they had nothing to do. In addition, Yuan Xingye was not strict with his subordinates or even extremely tolerant, so they were not afraid of being punished.After talking and laughing for a while, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

At this time, Yuan Xingye was already fully dressed, and Luo Yan also walked into the room.

"Be careful not to let anyone get close."

"General, let me go, in case the emperor comes---"

"It's okay, the Holy Majesty should have gone to Concubine Yunxi Gongde, she won't come, I'll be back soon." Yuan Xingye said.Knowing that she couldn't be persuaded, Luo Yan could only stand aside with a sigh.Looking at Luoyan's drooping eyebrows, Yuan Xingye's cold eyes suddenly had a hint of a smile, "Luoyan, I found that you have become more and more old-fashioned since you came to the palace." The character of the Northwest Army General Post, Scout No.1.Now it seems that in the palace, he has made his mark.

"General, if you act recklessly a few more times, I will age faster." Yuan Xingye used to be calm and wise, even a little unreasonable. She calculated gains and losses to minimize the possibility of failure.Anything, even if it only affects the outcome of the matter, she will analyze and choose the best solution.

But now, although he is wise and indifferent, there are always times when Yuan Xingye does things that he would never do before.like tonight---

Maybe it's a good thing, Luo Yan thought.In the past, although Yuan Xingye got along well with the army, was deeply loved by the soldiers, and there were soldiers who were willing to sacrifice their lives for her, but to the soldiers, Yuan Xingye was more like a symbol and a pillar. Although he could live and die with them, Will not be close friends with them.

Yuan Xingye still walked on the roof, and she walked on flat ground, and arrived at Hanxiang Hall in a few strokes.

Xia Zimo had already fallen asleep, and there was only a faint fragrance of flowers in the room, which was the newly bloomed chrysanthemums by the wall.The flower of this flower is only a circle smaller than the head of an adult, and its color is bright red. It is a famous Persian tribute.There was only one such plant, and Emperor He ordered someone to send it to Xia Zimo.

The people in the Hanxiang Palace had also fallen asleep, and the people on duty at night were Xingren and a maid. The two were talking quietly in the courtyard, and Yuan Xingye flew in through the window.Standing beside Xia Zimo's bed.Xia Zimo slept very restlessly, Yuan Xingye helped her tuck the quilt, and sat on the edge of the bed to watch her.

She didn't know why she didn't wake Xia Zimo up, just sat on the edge of the bed, patted Xia Zimo's body lightly, and Xia Zimo gradually fell asleep, breathing longer.

Yuan Xingye smiled wryly. Xia Zimo was fast asleep, so she naturally couldn't bear to call her.But it can't be delayed for too long. After thinking about it, I gradually forgot to use my strength, and stopped patting Xia Zimo's hand.
