Girl Shen's strategy for chasing his wife
Chapter 176
Your Majesty stayed at [Fengyi Palace] for one month, and loved the queen very much.
The masters of the Dayou Dynasty were all obedient to the empress and the empress, and the maids in the [Mingcheng Palace] whose eyes were above the top also tactfully made friends with the maids in the [Fengyi Palace].
With the support of His Majesty in this deep palace, the virtues and talents of the new empress are placed there, and no one will be dissatisfied with taking charge of the harem.
The stars in the sky are twinkling, and there is still an hour before the morning court. The empress is intoxicated and embraces the energetic Majesty, her cheeks are flushed, and her temples are wet with fragrant sweat.
His frail body trembled violently, his back stiffened, and a muffled and restrained cry escaped from his throat.
The dripping nectar poured over, springing the water, and Chi Heng lowered his head and looked obsessively at the beauty's teeth clenched on her lower lip, and called out "sister" in a hoarse voice, hugging her tightly and venting her love.
The warm water of Yunhua Pool washes away the boiling spring tide, and it will slow down. Qinghe is carried out of Yuchi with a pretty red face.
"When I got up in the morning and teased my sister, I was in high spirits all day." Chi Heng squinted his eyes to reflect on the pleasure just now, and smiled shyly: "Where is my sister?"
Qing He looked at her angrily, and stood on tiptoe to put on the crown for her.
The black emperor's robe with wide sleeves and narrow waist, with jade shoulders and snowy neck, perfectly brought out the empress's good looks and figure.
She couldn't take her eyes off her eyes, and reached out her hand to touch Chi Heng's waist: "Go up to court, you are so dishonest, how can you lead the officials?"
Chi Heng laughed twice, tidied up, and left [Fengyi Palace] refreshed.
After she left, Qinghe sat in front of the window in a daze for a long while, her eyes fell on the flowers in the porcelain vases slanted, her ears were slightly burning, and she suddenly thought of Achina's flower house that grinded her.
It is indeed refreshing.
Not only is the body refreshed, but the heart is also refreshed after the rain.
This was the first time they did this, and the blush on A Chi's face during the ebb tide gave her great satisfaction.
So, what kind of baby?Are they so bad?
The empress sighed softly by the window.
She knew that her thoughts were extreme and abnormal, but luckily the courtiers didn't know that they had the secret medicine for girls to give birth.
You are the Queen Youchao, if she sits in this seat and refuses to give birth, will she be scolded by her subjects?
It is not an exaggeration to say "the sinner of Dayou Dynasty".
Qing He was happy for a short while, Yuan Shanmei was locked in worry.
She was born without a mother's upbringing, half learned to know the rites and know her shame, and half grew wild, she couldn't share her thoughts with the Queen Mother, so she got His Majesty's order to leave the palace and went to Xie's house to find her aunt for relief.
The empress came to Xie's house in a phoenix chariot.
The Xie family is a scholarly family. Because they were dissatisfied with the behavior of Zhao's father and son in the previous dynasty, they hibernated and did not show up. After the change of dynasty, the female emperor ascended the throne.
The current head of the Xie family is called Xie Jiao, 26 years old, young and promising, Xie Xinglou was the master of Xie Xinglou and inherited from a collateral lineage, and he was included in the family tree of the Xie family's direct line. After that, he only recognized the late Xie Zhemei as his mother. The relationship with the current queen is still brother and sister.
Xie Jiao led all the members of the Xie family to kneel to welcome the phoenix, when the queen came, Xie Xinglou was holding the cat in the [Shuhua Courtyard] basking in the sun.
Xie Jiao's wife, Yang Shi, was by the queen's side, and she dared not take a step forward when she reached the gate of [Shuhua Courtyard].
The person living inside is the elder Xie's family, without her order, no one would dare to destroy her tranquility.
"Ma'am, we're here."
Qinghe came here with something on his mind, and he also missed his aunt somewhat: "I'm sorry, sister-in-law."
Mrs. Yang was flattered when she called her "sister-in-law", she was never arrogant, and her attitude became more respectful.
The news that the new empress was favored was spread in Shengjing City as early as this month, that Aunt Xie was able to make the decision and chose Xie Jiao as the head of the house, because he was still dignified and character-oriented.
In the final analysis, the purpose of the drastic rectification of Xie's family in the past few months was to help the queen.
Her natal family is prosperous, and there are people in the court who help to speak, so it's hard to teach outsiders to underestimate the queen.
Xie Jiao and his wife can understand the love and love of the elders. They stick to their duties, behave in a down-to-earth manner, and earn their future honestly.
Yang bowed her head and retreated, Qinghe raised her legs and walked into [Shuhua Courtyard].
The sun was shining brightly and the spring breeze was breezy. The cat lay lazily on Xie Xinglou's lap, curled up like an oversized chicken leg.
Hearing the noise, Xie Xinglou raised his eyebrows and looked at her, seeing her rosy complexion, he smiled before saying anything: "Come?"
Qinghe hadn't seen her aunt for many days, but when she saw someone, the yearning increased from [-]% to [-]%. Her eyes showed admiration. Xie Xinglou patted the cat's head, and the cat beat him reluctantly. The yawn jumped off her lap.
It's just a cat, and it's been taught very well. Qing He couldn't help smiling when he saw it: Is it really my aunt?
Tang Jiu is the master, who taught her the way of healing poison and how to make hidden weapons. Most of her abilities are taught by her, but the master comes and goes indefinitely, and the dragon never sees the end. More like a mother.
My aunt will remember her birthday every year, even if it is thousands of miles away, she will come here tirelessly. She teaches her how to forge weapons, teach her to be a smart person who is sharp but does not hurt herself, and never restrains her with rules.It is also said to be spoiled.
Qinghe is tough by nature, seeing the gentle gaze of her aunt, her heart can't stop being sour.
Her eyes were slightly red, and Xie Xinglou hugged her to his side to watch her eyebrows carefully.
Aside from other things, Wanwan's appearance is indeed the delicate demeanor of a newlywed nourished by love, with a wonderful expression in every frown and smile.She couldn't believe that Chi Heng didn't like this stunning beauty.
With a clear heart, he still couldn't help but worry: "What's the matter? But His Majesty bullied you?"
"No." When she saw her relative lose her composure, she took a few breaths to recover, and said with a smile, "I'm just happy to see my aunt."
Xie Xinglou has lived to this age, what hasn't he seen?It is expected that she is not just seeing her relatives happy: "What's the matter, tell my aunt?"
Really want to say, but Qinghe doesn't know where to start.
Since she was tempted by A Chi when she was young, or since she got married?No matter where you start, there seems to be endless things to say.
After drinking a cup of tea, she sat on the bamboo chair in a daze and sighed, "Auntie, please tell me about Auntie."
Xie Xinglou held the teacup: "Your mother..."
She looked over through the void, as if seeing those years together at a glance, and pondered: "Your mother is a very good person. She was smart and lively when she was young, and when she grew up, she became more lovable and self-willed. He has a decisive side, never procrastinates in doing things, and is a child who was spoiled in love.
"Your eyebrows and eyes are the most like her, as if carved out of the same mold. Amei is very good at equestrianism. She has practiced literature and martial arts since she was a child. She is even better at playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is extremely talented. If a person like her was born in Youchao , I'm sure I can bring back a champion..."
Qinghe's impetuous heart was soothed by her calm memories, she asked: "Mother, does she like children?"
"like."
Xie Xinglou is such a smart person, after hearing her ask this question, he thought about the crux of it.
She said softly, "Your mother likes children very much."
Qinghe looked at his aunt sadly: "But I can't be a good mother. I just want to stay with Achi and guard this picturesque country with her. She is the emperor, and I will be the queen.
"If she is not the emperor of the world, I wish I could spend time with her every day. I can't see her loving others more than me. But I have to explain to my subjects, I can't be too selfish...
"Auntie, I'm not Auntie. Auntie is a good Auntie. She protected me with her life. But if I were someone else's mother, I wouldn't know how to love her. I would envy her, hate her, and despise her." .
"I thought that when I had a child, Ah Chi would hug her, kiss her, and coax her at night without sleeping. I would be happy for her growth at every stage of life, worry about her marriage, and love her with my heart. I My heart can't get peace, it's like tearing apart."
Xie Xinglou's heart ached when she said frankly without any concealment.
Originally thought that she and Tang Jiu had done their best to raise her up, but never thought that Wanwan thought so.
Facts have proved that Tang Jiu can't raise a child, and she can't raise a child either. Shen Yanen neglected this child in those years when he should embody his father's love most.
The lack of motherly love and fatherly love has a great impact on Qinghe, so that she is afraid of being a mother, firmly grasps the love in her heart, is stingy and paranoid.
"I used to think that A Chi was a handsome man, and I thought about having children for her, and every time I thought about it, I felt pain.
"Later, I found out that she was a girl. I was grateful to God. Knowing that she was a girl, the first thing I thought about was not being deceived, but worried that Ah Chi was a girl. Will he fall in love with me? Will he not want me?
"I quietly lured her into the love net I had woven. First, I tied this person with me in the name of elopement, and then used the name of a fiancée to hook up with her in a small village. I just indulged her. I'm mad at her for being straightforward, and mad at her for not being enlightened, but everything she does hooks my heart.
"The moment she appeared in my life was so glamorous. She was willing to shield me from arrows after a few encounters. When it snowed heavily, she thought I was bored in the house and would come to Xiuchunyuan to build a snowman for me. Every time she went out Don't forget to bring me a gift, eat, drink, play, everything makes me envious.
"She puts me in her heart all the time, and would fight to the death for me and others, which woman would not be tempted by such wholehearted protection?
"She stood up for me and was whipped by the general. She was obviously suffering for me, but she didn't want to teach me to hear it, and she could endure the beating and keep silent.
"I am two years older than her, but she has always held me in her heart, pitied me, respected me, loved me, and stayed with me. I am used to her seeing me only when she looks at me..."
Qing He looked depressed: "If my child and hers are born, Ah Chi will be happy.
"I know her, she likes a soft, soft, cute baby, let alone the flesh and blood that I conceived for her.
"A child who is not expected by the birth mother is doomed to suffer. Why should I do evil? I don't know how to love that child, and somehow I am responsible for the life of a baby.
"Whether it's my own or adopted, I don't want to be a mother, I just want to be A Chi's wife."
Her eyes struggled: "Auntie, what should I do?"
Xie Xinglou really couldn't see her suffering because of this, moreover Xie Zhemei was poisoned by poison and died of exhaustion to give birth to a child, in her heart she also didn't want to see Wanwan suffer the pain of pregnancy.
Although the cold poison was cured, Wanwan's body was still weak.
It's just that this decision should not be made by her.
"What does His Majesty think?"
"She..." Qinghe said in a low voice, "She listened to me..."
Heart disease still needs heart medicine, children are just children, if they are not born, they will not be born, but even adoptive heirs cannot be tolerated, it is really difficult to deal with.
Xie Xinglou kindly comforted her, although he didn't give her a suitable solution, but he talked to her and emptied those embarrassments that are not humane, Qinghe felt much better.
Now that she felt better, she asked, "Why did my aunt accept this stepson on behalf of my mother?"
"What else could it be?" Xie Xinglou chuckled, "He looks good and has a conscience. Auntie hopes that more and more people will protect you."
With her words, before boarding the phoenix chariot, Qinghe looked back at his stepbrother who was sending him out.
She carefully looked at the handsome Xie Jiao, and slowly discovered that there was a black mole the size of a grain of rice at the end of his eyes.
It usually looks inconspicuous, but she has seen a portrait of A Niang drawn by her aunt, and A Niang also has a small beauty mole there.
It is human nature to love the house and the crow.
For a moment, she didn't know how much she thought about it, and how many sighs she gave birth to.
Xie Jiao felt chills down his spine when he was looked at by the empress, but he thought he was upright, and he didn't dare to look up at Tianyan. .”
"Brother", Xie Jiao's nose turned sore.
He was originally an offshoot child who was not valued highly, abandoned by his parents, and had a miserable life experience.
However, his aunt tried her best to lift him out of the muddy situation, and asked him to be the master of the Xie family, respect his aunt who had passed away for many years, and take care of the younger sister of the master of the palace.
He didn't dare to call the Empress Empress his younger sister, because he had low self-esteem and felt that he didn't deserve such an honorable relative.
The second is low self-esteem, what is he, an ominous person who has no father or mother, suddenly has a aunt, relatives, and a family, so how can he be worthy of this kindness?
He knelt on the ground without daring to raise his head. After Feng Jia left for a long time, he slowly straightened up respectfully.
When he was 12 years old, he was thrown in the snow by his biological parents. When he couldn't survive, his aunt held his hand through the wind and snow and asked him if he wanted a home.
His lips were purple from the cold, and he said he wanted to.
Then he waited another 12 years.
In the past 12 years, he has studied and practiced Chinese characters, knowing gratitude and knowing right from wrong. At the age of 24, he obeyed his aunt's order and came to Shengjing.
He had seen the portrait of his aunt, and the first time he saw it, he was envious.
Such a bright and majestic woman seems to be able to tolerate others, so she will definitely not reject him because of his unyielding remarks.
Thinking of this, he remembered the "brother" that the empress said before she left, and went back to the room and cried secretly.
Mrs. Yang is more cautious than her own husband. Those nobles of the family in Shengjing City privately spread the news that they were lucky. In the final analysis, their eyes are red with jealousy.
The queen came to Xie's house to recognize this relative and rectify the name of their family. She was so grateful that she turned around and went to the ancestral hall to offer a stick of incense to her mother-in-law, kowtow three times, and vowed to be the head of the Xie family. Empress Empress is ashamed.
Chi Heng went to the [Yongshou Palace] to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor after the early court, and then went back to the imperial study to read the excerpts handed over by the courtiers, and went to the Liyuan to listen to an opera an hour later.
After noon, I went to [Xingwuguan] to stretch my fists and feet, sweating profusely, and learned that the queen had not come back from outside, so I moved to [Fengyi Palace].
Qinghe came back from Xie's house, just stepped into the bedroom, Chi Heng sat in the main seat and looked at her with resentment: "Sister, how is your lunch?"
Wronged Baba.
When Qinghe saw her, joy hung on his brows.
She had lunch with her aunt at [Shuhua Courtyard]. Although she had something on her mind, she couldn't bear to frown and make the elders worry about eating at the same table with her aunt, so the meal was quite enjoyable.
"Very good." She walked lightly in front of His Majesty with lotus steps, and asked with a smile, "How did Your Majesty use it?"
Chi Heng curled his lips: "I don't know the taste of food."
She gave her a wink, and Liuqin and Liuse led the palace servants back, and the two of them intertwined their fingers and walked deep.
"Auntie is well?"
"well."
"How about Brother Xie?"
Qing He said with a smile: "He is a reliable person with great etiquette."
It wasn't the first time for them to see Xie Jiao. They had met someone before, but they still didn't have a deep impression of Xie Jiao. After all these years, Chi Heng had never seen anyone with such a weak sense of presence.
"Seeing him today, I know how he got into my aunt's eyes." Qinghe pointed at the end of his eyes: "He has a beauty mole here, which is exactly the same as my aunt's.
"I called him "brother", but he crawled on his knees and dared not raise his head.
"Aniang's coffin is located in the ancestral hall, and the husband and wife wipe it with a silk cloth every day, three times a day, being careful not to leave dust.
"Also a poor man.
"On the day he was born, his real grandmother died suddenly, and his biological mother was chased and pecked by crows during the day, which hurt her beautiful face, and gave birth at night. He was disgusted by his parents when he was born, and he was kept indifferent until he was [-] years old. , Because of an unknown birth, he was cruelly thrown in the snow by his relatives.
"In such a cold day, if I hadn't met my aunt, I would not have survived."
Chi Heng patted the back of her hand: "His parents abandoned him, it's fate, now he is a mother-in-law's heir, how do you know it's not a blessing that comes late in life?"
"That's the way it is said. But he has had a father and a mother for 12 years, but his life is worse than without a father and no mother. 12 years, many days and nights."
Knowing that she was reminded of him by Xie Jiao, Chi Heng pinched her fingertips lightly: "It's okay, he's woken up with this one."
Song Dajian frowned, and raised his eyebrows when he heard this: Your Majesty's words mean to reuse the Xie family and promote Xie Jiao?
Being taken care of by His Majesty, as long as Xie Jiao doesn't make big mistakes in the future, even future generations will have inexhaustible blessings.
Qinghe smiled: "Don't help him. A person like him can only feel at ease if he wins the holy family by his ability."
"I'm not a crony person." Chi Heng was full of confidence: "Aunt Xie taught people, even if they teach casually, how could they be worse?"
In a blink of an eye, it is the end of April, the day when the imperial examinations are released.
The imperial court selects good talents, and Xie Jiao knocks on the door of a bright future with his eloquent talent and becomes the first literary champion in the founding of the country.
Zhuangyuanlang has become the hottest upstart in the court, Xie Jiao is firmly seated as the head of the family, and Xie's family will unswervingly become the backing of the new queen who will never betray.
In the second year of Zhiyuan, there were Xie Jiao, Liu Sanying, and Xiao Ruyi in the literary examination, and Yan Xian, Ling Yue, and Zhou Yan in the martial arts examination. His Majesty allowed women to take reference, so only Xiao Ruyi squeezed into the first class and was hand-picked. For exploring flowers.
Compared with men, there are only 13 women on the list combined of civil and martial arts. Xiao Chongzhi watched His Majesty's cold expression, and thought: Here we come.
"Men with the same grades are given priority. Who made this rule?" Chi Heng dropped the fold in his hand.
The unfair selection of the imperial examination aroused the fury of Her Majesty the Empress, and several invigilators walked out of the Chongzheng Hall tremblingly, their souls were floating.
After some review, the imperial court added 30 women, the first thirteen, the last seventeen, and a full count of [-]. Compared with most men, the number is not enough.
Chi Heng vomited so much that he couldn't eat: "The capable ones live there, our country is vast, and the number of women for reference is so pitifully small..."
"Why is Your Majesty so angry?" Qing Heping said calmly, "Isn't there already thirty people on the list?
"30 people, enough for His Majesty, use them well, teach the world to see that women can also become officials, and they can walk steadily on the official road, and they are no worse than men. personal.
"But the road is wider and the lighthouse ahead is on. Naturally, countless people see that it is good to study and become an official."
With a few words, she dispelled Chi Heng's depression.
When the majesty came down with a sullen face, and when he left like a spring breeze, who would marvel at the empress's wisdom?
The imperial examination party came to an end, and Mrs. Xiao was summoned into the palace by the queen with her big belly. The palace people waited on her carefully, allowing her to ease the tension of early pregnancy, so she would be calm.
She was so bored at home that she still had the chance to be summoned by the Queen after she asked her husband to show her beauty to His Majesty.
As soon as she entered [Fengyi Palace], she burst into a smile: "The minister's wife has seen the empress!"
She was heavy, Qinghe didn't dare to ask her to really kneel down, Liuqin quickly helped Mrs. Xiao to stabilize.
After being given a seat, Rong Ling talked about the 30 women who entered the list in this subject, and sighed: "This kid came at a very good time, if not, I would like to give it a try."
She is known for her talents, so it may be that she is the reason why there are few female references this time.
Xiao Chongzhi is a giant in the literary world, and his daughter-in-law is one of the most talented women. People with such a great reputation have not ended up in the end, so people can't help but feel worried.
Opportunities have always been prepared for the courageous. Qingyun Road is at your feet, and whether you can go or not depends on everyone's heart.
She regretted a few words and didn't say any more.
Qinghe looked at her growing belly, and then thought about how Rong Ling would salute her carelessly when she entered the door. She felt lingering fear in her heart, and said with concern: "You are too reckless, you dare to run around while pregnant with a child."
If she hadn't kept shouting to enter the palace, Qinghe would not have called her into the palace.
It's a big deal, you have to wait for the baby to be born.
Speaking of the child, Rong Ling smiled heartily: "Your Majesty doesn't know something, I am a well-behaved child, and I seldom trouble me."
This is true, Qinghe glanced at her, and thought to himself: It's only been a few months, Ah Ling is going to be fat like a ball.
When she thought that her body shape would inevitably be out of shape during pregnancy, she became even more resistant, but she loved Chi Heng and didn't want her to be in trouble in that position. The succession to the throne must always be done with integrity, and she can't trust others.
Seeing her movement, Rong Ling strikes while the iron is hot: "Madam, why don't you come and touch her?"
touch?
Qinghe subconsciously developed a layer of fine skin bumps on his arms, his scalp was numb, and a thought gave birth to the hidden worry of "if you touch Ah Ling, the child will fall off".
It is extremely rare for her to look like this, and Rong Ling suppressed her serious smile. She wanted to see more expressions she hadn't seen before, and coaxed softly: "This child is very healthy. It is her blessing to touch her. She will grow up." better."
"Is it?"
After Chi Heng finished handling the government affairs, he made a decision to open up sea routes, and deliberately kept the palace officials silent. When he walked into the [Fengyi Palace], he saw her Wanwan carefully touching the stomachs of other women!
She kicked over the vinegar jar, put her fist on her lips, and cleared her throat.
She came by coincidence, Rong Ling tilted his head and saw the young, beautiful and majestic His Majesty, and was about to get up in a hurry, but the empress beside her whispered: "Oh!"
Chi Heng quickly walked over, worried: "Sister, what's going on?"
Qing He blinked, staring blankly at the open palm: "She, she just kicked me..."
"What?" Chi Heng stared blankly at Mrs. Xiao.
Rong Ling was impatient, and quickly argued: "The minister's wife dare not kick the empress!"
"..."
Her Majesty the Empress had strange eyes, looking at the little doll hiding in Mrs. Xiao's belly with a complex expression, thinking: It hasn't come out yet, and it's impossible to settle accounts.
Her eyes flickered, and she asked curiously, "Why did she kick you?"
Mrs. Xiao who was at the side listened to the empress talking about the child in her womb, always felt that the atmosphere was very strange.
She was sandwiched between the two, with a big belly, and suddenly had the outrageous thought of "Actually, she is not a pregnant woman, His Majesty and the Empress are the mothers of the child".
Feeling the unborn little life for the first time, Qinghe pulled Chi Heng to share the fresh feeling nervously, and Chi Heng put his hand on the queen's flat belly in a strange way.
When she realized what she had done, she suddenly became flustered when she looked at Shangqing and Shen Shen, and hurriedly withdrew her hand: "Zhen, I don't like children either!"
"Really?" Qing He glanced at Rong Ling's big belly, and the surprise that had risen just now burst like a bubble in an instant.
She thought with a headache: A Chi likes children more than she imagined.
She likes the milk doll crawling out of her stomach—a brand new life born of two people.
What A Chi wanted, there was nothing that Shen Qinghe couldn't give.
But if she wants a child...
It is okay to give, but children are not precious objects. If you give them, you have to be responsible. If you don’t raise them when you are born, and you don’t teach them when you raise them, that is a sin.
No child is born without a desire to be loved.
She panicked and fell into a daze: But who will teach her to be a competent mother?
She doesn't want to be the kind of person she hates.
I don't want to disappoint and embarrass A Chi.
More than anyone else, she wants to be a good queen who mothers the world...
"Wanwan? Wanwan?!"
Chi Heng held her chin nervously, looked at her bleeding lower lip in shock, annoyed and distressed: "Release, don't bite anymore."
The masters of the Dayou Dynasty were all obedient to the empress and the empress, and the maids in the [Mingcheng Palace] whose eyes were above the top also tactfully made friends with the maids in the [Fengyi Palace].
With the support of His Majesty in this deep palace, the virtues and talents of the new empress are placed there, and no one will be dissatisfied with taking charge of the harem.
The stars in the sky are twinkling, and there is still an hour before the morning court. The empress is intoxicated and embraces the energetic Majesty, her cheeks are flushed, and her temples are wet with fragrant sweat.
His frail body trembled violently, his back stiffened, and a muffled and restrained cry escaped from his throat.
The dripping nectar poured over, springing the water, and Chi Heng lowered his head and looked obsessively at the beauty's teeth clenched on her lower lip, and called out "sister" in a hoarse voice, hugging her tightly and venting her love.
The warm water of Yunhua Pool washes away the boiling spring tide, and it will slow down. Qinghe is carried out of Yuchi with a pretty red face.
"When I got up in the morning and teased my sister, I was in high spirits all day." Chi Heng squinted his eyes to reflect on the pleasure just now, and smiled shyly: "Where is my sister?"
Qing He looked at her angrily, and stood on tiptoe to put on the crown for her.
The black emperor's robe with wide sleeves and narrow waist, with jade shoulders and snowy neck, perfectly brought out the empress's good looks and figure.
She couldn't take her eyes off her eyes, and reached out her hand to touch Chi Heng's waist: "Go up to court, you are so dishonest, how can you lead the officials?"
Chi Heng laughed twice, tidied up, and left [Fengyi Palace] refreshed.
After she left, Qinghe sat in front of the window in a daze for a long while, her eyes fell on the flowers in the porcelain vases slanted, her ears were slightly burning, and she suddenly thought of Achina's flower house that grinded her.
It is indeed refreshing.
Not only is the body refreshed, but the heart is also refreshed after the rain.
This was the first time they did this, and the blush on A Chi's face during the ebb tide gave her great satisfaction.
So, what kind of baby?Are they so bad?
The empress sighed softly by the window.
She knew that her thoughts were extreme and abnormal, but luckily the courtiers didn't know that they had the secret medicine for girls to give birth.
You are the Queen Youchao, if she sits in this seat and refuses to give birth, will she be scolded by her subjects?
It is not an exaggeration to say "the sinner of Dayou Dynasty".
Qing He was happy for a short while, Yuan Shanmei was locked in worry.
She was born without a mother's upbringing, half learned to know the rites and know her shame, and half grew wild, she couldn't share her thoughts with the Queen Mother, so she got His Majesty's order to leave the palace and went to Xie's house to find her aunt for relief.
The empress came to Xie's house in a phoenix chariot.
The Xie family is a scholarly family. Because they were dissatisfied with the behavior of Zhao's father and son in the previous dynasty, they hibernated and did not show up. After the change of dynasty, the female emperor ascended the throne.
The current head of the Xie family is called Xie Jiao, 26 years old, young and promising, Xie Xinglou was the master of Xie Xinglou and inherited from a collateral lineage, and he was included in the family tree of the Xie family's direct line. After that, he only recognized the late Xie Zhemei as his mother. The relationship with the current queen is still brother and sister.
Xie Jiao led all the members of the Xie family to kneel to welcome the phoenix, when the queen came, Xie Xinglou was holding the cat in the [Shuhua Courtyard] basking in the sun.
Xie Jiao's wife, Yang Shi, was by the queen's side, and she dared not take a step forward when she reached the gate of [Shuhua Courtyard].
The person living inside is the elder Xie's family, without her order, no one would dare to destroy her tranquility.
"Ma'am, we're here."
Qinghe came here with something on his mind, and he also missed his aunt somewhat: "I'm sorry, sister-in-law."
Mrs. Yang was flattered when she called her "sister-in-law", she was never arrogant, and her attitude became more respectful.
The news that the new empress was favored was spread in Shengjing City as early as this month, that Aunt Xie was able to make the decision and chose Xie Jiao as the head of the house, because he was still dignified and character-oriented.
In the final analysis, the purpose of the drastic rectification of Xie's family in the past few months was to help the queen.
Her natal family is prosperous, and there are people in the court who help to speak, so it's hard to teach outsiders to underestimate the queen.
Xie Jiao and his wife can understand the love and love of the elders. They stick to their duties, behave in a down-to-earth manner, and earn their future honestly.
Yang bowed her head and retreated, Qinghe raised her legs and walked into [Shuhua Courtyard].
The sun was shining brightly and the spring breeze was breezy. The cat lay lazily on Xie Xinglou's lap, curled up like an oversized chicken leg.
Hearing the noise, Xie Xinglou raised his eyebrows and looked at her, seeing her rosy complexion, he smiled before saying anything: "Come?"
Qinghe hadn't seen her aunt for many days, but when she saw someone, the yearning increased from [-]% to [-]%. Her eyes showed admiration. Xie Xinglou patted the cat's head, and the cat beat him reluctantly. The yawn jumped off her lap.
It's just a cat, and it's been taught very well. Qing He couldn't help smiling when he saw it: Is it really my aunt?
Tang Jiu is the master, who taught her the way of healing poison and how to make hidden weapons. Most of her abilities are taught by her, but the master comes and goes indefinitely, and the dragon never sees the end. More like a mother.
My aunt will remember her birthday every year, even if it is thousands of miles away, she will come here tirelessly. She teaches her how to forge weapons, teach her to be a smart person who is sharp but does not hurt herself, and never restrains her with rules.It is also said to be spoiled.
Qinghe is tough by nature, seeing the gentle gaze of her aunt, her heart can't stop being sour.
Her eyes were slightly red, and Xie Xinglou hugged her to his side to watch her eyebrows carefully.
Aside from other things, Wanwan's appearance is indeed the delicate demeanor of a newlywed nourished by love, with a wonderful expression in every frown and smile.She couldn't believe that Chi Heng didn't like this stunning beauty.
With a clear heart, he still couldn't help but worry: "What's the matter? But His Majesty bullied you?"
"No." When she saw her relative lose her composure, she took a few breaths to recover, and said with a smile, "I'm just happy to see my aunt."
Xie Xinglou has lived to this age, what hasn't he seen?It is expected that she is not just seeing her relatives happy: "What's the matter, tell my aunt?"
Really want to say, but Qinghe doesn't know where to start.
Since she was tempted by A Chi when she was young, or since she got married?No matter where you start, there seems to be endless things to say.
After drinking a cup of tea, she sat on the bamboo chair in a daze and sighed, "Auntie, please tell me about Auntie."
Xie Xinglou held the teacup: "Your mother..."
She looked over through the void, as if seeing those years together at a glance, and pondered: "Your mother is a very good person. She was smart and lively when she was young, and when she grew up, she became more lovable and self-willed. He has a decisive side, never procrastinates in doing things, and is a child who was spoiled in love.
"Your eyebrows and eyes are the most like her, as if carved out of the same mold. Amei is very good at equestrianism. She has practiced literature and martial arts since she was a child. She is even better at playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is extremely talented. If a person like her was born in Youchao , I'm sure I can bring back a champion..."
Qinghe's impetuous heart was soothed by her calm memories, she asked: "Mother, does she like children?"
"like."
Xie Xinglou is such a smart person, after hearing her ask this question, he thought about the crux of it.
She said softly, "Your mother likes children very much."
Qinghe looked at his aunt sadly: "But I can't be a good mother. I just want to stay with Achi and guard this picturesque country with her. She is the emperor, and I will be the queen.
"If she is not the emperor of the world, I wish I could spend time with her every day. I can't see her loving others more than me. But I have to explain to my subjects, I can't be too selfish...
"Auntie, I'm not Auntie. Auntie is a good Auntie. She protected me with her life. But if I were someone else's mother, I wouldn't know how to love her. I would envy her, hate her, and despise her." .
"I thought that when I had a child, Ah Chi would hug her, kiss her, and coax her at night without sleeping. I would be happy for her growth at every stage of life, worry about her marriage, and love her with my heart. I My heart can't get peace, it's like tearing apart."
Xie Xinglou's heart ached when she said frankly without any concealment.
Originally thought that she and Tang Jiu had done their best to raise her up, but never thought that Wanwan thought so.
Facts have proved that Tang Jiu can't raise a child, and she can't raise a child either. Shen Yanen neglected this child in those years when he should embody his father's love most.
The lack of motherly love and fatherly love has a great impact on Qinghe, so that she is afraid of being a mother, firmly grasps the love in her heart, is stingy and paranoid.
"I used to think that A Chi was a handsome man, and I thought about having children for her, and every time I thought about it, I felt pain.
"Later, I found out that she was a girl. I was grateful to God. Knowing that she was a girl, the first thing I thought about was not being deceived, but worried that Ah Chi was a girl. Will he fall in love with me? Will he not want me?
"I quietly lured her into the love net I had woven. First, I tied this person with me in the name of elopement, and then used the name of a fiancée to hook up with her in a small village. I just indulged her. I'm mad at her for being straightforward, and mad at her for not being enlightened, but everything she does hooks my heart.
"The moment she appeared in my life was so glamorous. She was willing to shield me from arrows after a few encounters. When it snowed heavily, she thought I was bored in the house and would come to Xiuchunyuan to build a snowman for me. Every time she went out Don't forget to bring me a gift, eat, drink, play, everything makes me envious.
"She puts me in her heart all the time, and would fight to the death for me and others, which woman would not be tempted by such wholehearted protection?
"She stood up for me and was whipped by the general. She was obviously suffering for me, but she didn't want to teach me to hear it, and she could endure the beating and keep silent.
"I am two years older than her, but she has always held me in her heart, pitied me, respected me, loved me, and stayed with me. I am used to her seeing me only when she looks at me..."
Qing He looked depressed: "If my child and hers are born, Ah Chi will be happy.
"I know her, she likes a soft, soft, cute baby, let alone the flesh and blood that I conceived for her.
"A child who is not expected by the birth mother is doomed to suffer. Why should I do evil? I don't know how to love that child, and somehow I am responsible for the life of a baby.
"Whether it's my own or adopted, I don't want to be a mother, I just want to be A Chi's wife."
Her eyes struggled: "Auntie, what should I do?"
Xie Xinglou really couldn't see her suffering because of this, moreover Xie Zhemei was poisoned by poison and died of exhaustion to give birth to a child, in her heart she also didn't want to see Wanwan suffer the pain of pregnancy.
Although the cold poison was cured, Wanwan's body was still weak.
It's just that this decision should not be made by her.
"What does His Majesty think?"
"She..." Qinghe said in a low voice, "She listened to me..."
Heart disease still needs heart medicine, children are just children, if they are not born, they will not be born, but even adoptive heirs cannot be tolerated, it is really difficult to deal with.
Xie Xinglou kindly comforted her, although he didn't give her a suitable solution, but he talked to her and emptied those embarrassments that are not humane, Qinghe felt much better.
Now that she felt better, she asked, "Why did my aunt accept this stepson on behalf of my mother?"
"What else could it be?" Xie Xinglou chuckled, "He looks good and has a conscience. Auntie hopes that more and more people will protect you."
With her words, before boarding the phoenix chariot, Qinghe looked back at his stepbrother who was sending him out.
She carefully looked at the handsome Xie Jiao, and slowly discovered that there was a black mole the size of a grain of rice at the end of his eyes.
It usually looks inconspicuous, but she has seen a portrait of A Niang drawn by her aunt, and A Niang also has a small beauty mole there.
It is human nature to love the house and the crow.
For a moment, she didn't know how much she thought about it, and how many sighs she gave birth to.
Xie Jiao felt chills down his spine when he was looked at by the empress, but he thought he was upright, and he didn't dare to look up at Tianyan. .”
"Brother", Xie Jiao's nose turned sore.
He was originally an offshoot child who was not valued highly, abandoned by his parents, and had a miserable life experience.
However, his aunt tried her best to lift him out of the muddy situation, and asked him to be the master of the Xie family, respect his aunt who had passed away for many years, and take care of the younger sister of the master of the palace.
He didn't dare to call the Empress Empress his younger sister, because he had low self-esteem and felt that he didn't deserve such an honorable relative.
The second is low self-esteem, what is he, an ominous person who has no father or mother, suddenly has a aunt, relatives, and a family, so how can he be worthy of this kindness?
He knelt on the ground without daring to raise his head. After Feng Jia left for a long time, he slowly straightened up respectfully.
When he was 12 years old, he was thrown in the snow by his biological parents. When he couldn't survive, his aunt held his hand through the wind and snow and asked him if he wanted a home.
His lips were purple from the cold, and he said he wanted to.
Then he waited another 12 years.
In the past 12 years, he has studied and practiced Chinese characters, knowing gratitude and knowing right from wrong. At the age of 24, he obeyed his aunt's order and came to Shengjing.
He had seen the portrait of his aunt, and the first time he saw it, he was envious.
Such a bright and majestic woman seems to be able to tolerate others, so she will definitely not reject him because of his unyielding remarks.
Thinking of this, he remembered the "brother" that the empress said before she left, and went back to the room and cried secretly.
Mrs. Yang is more cautious than her own husband. Those nobles of the family in Shengjing City privately spread the news that they were lucky. In the final analysis, their eyes are red with jealousy.
The queen came to Xie's house to recognize this relative and rectify the name of their family. She was so grateful that she turned around and went to the ancestral hall to offer a stick of incense to her mother-in-law, kowtow three times, and vowed to be the head of the Xie family. Empress Empress is ashamed.
Chi Heng went to the [Yongshou Palace] to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor after the early court, and then went back to the imperial study to read the excerpts handed over by the courtiers, and went to the Liyuan to listen to an opera an hour later.
After noon, I went to [Xingwuguan] to stretch my fists and feet, sweating profusely, and learned that the queen had not come back from outside, so I moved to [Fengyi Palace].
Qinghe came back from Xie's house, just stepped into the bedroom, Chi Heng sat in the main seat and looked at her with resentment: "Sister, how is your lunch?"
Wronged Baba.
When Qinghe saw her, joy hung on his brows.
She had lunch with her aunt at [Shuhua Courtyard]. Although she had something on her mind, she couldn't bear to frown and make the elders worry about eating at the same table with her aunt, so the meal was quite enjoyable.
"Very good." She walked lightly in front of His Majesty with lotus steps, and asked with a smile, "How did Your Majesty use it?"
Chi Heng curled his lips: "I don't know the taste of food."
She gave her a wink, and Liuqin and Liuse led the palace servants back, and the two of them intertwined their fingers and walked deep.
"Auntie is well?"
"well."
"How about Brother Xie?"
Qing He said with a smile: "He is a reliable person with great etiquette."
It wasn't the first time for them to see Xie Jiao. They had met someone before, but they still didn't have a deep impression of Xie Jiao. After all these years, Chi Heng had never seen anyone with such a weak sense of presence.
"Seeing him today, I know how he got into my aunt's eyes." Qinghe pointed at the end of his eyes: "He has a beauty mole here, which is exactly the same as my aunt's.
"I called him "brother", but he crawled on his knees and dared not raise his head.
"Aniang's coffin is located in the ancestral hall, and the husband and wife wipe it with a silk cloth every day, three times a day, being careful not to leave dust.
"Also a poor man.
"On the day he was born, his real grandmother died suddenly, and his biological mother was chased and pecked by crows during the day, which hurt her beautiful face, and gave birth at night. He was disgusted by his parents when he was born, and he was kept indifferent until he was [-] years old. , Because of an unknown birth, he was cruelly thrown in the snow by his relatives.
"In such a cold day, if I hadn't met my aunt, I would not have survived."
Chi Heng patted the back of her hand: "His parents abandoned him, it's fate, now he is a mother-in-law's heir, how do you know it's not a blessing that comes late in life?"
"That's the way it is said. But he has had a father and a mother for 12 years, but his life is worse than without a father and no mother. 12 years, many days and nights."
Knowing that she was reminded of him by Xie Jiao, Chi Heng pinched her fingertips lightly: "It's okay, he's woken up with this one."
Song Dajian frowned, and raised his eyebrows when he heard this: Your Majesty's words mean to reuse the Xie family and promote Xie Jiao?
Being taken care of by His Majesty, as long as Xie Jiao doesn't make big mistakes in the future, even future generations will have inexhaustible blessings.
Qinghe smiled: "Don't help him. A person like him can only feel at ease if he wins the holy family by his ability."
"I'm not a crony person." Chi Heng was full of confidence: "Aunt Xie taught people, even if they teach casually, how could they be worse?"
In a blink of an eye, it is the end of April, the day when the imperial examinations are released.
The imperial court selects good talents, and Xie Jiao knocks on the door of a bright future with his eloquent talent and becomes the first literary champion in the founding of the country.
Zhuangyuanlang has become the hottest upstart in the court, Xie Jiao is firmly seated as the head of the family, and Xie's family will unswervingly become the backing of the new queen who will never betray.
In the second year of Zhiyuan, there were Xie Jiao, Liu Sanying, and Xiao Ruyi in the literary examination, and Yan Xian, Ling Yue, and Zhou Yan in the martial arts examination. His Majesty allowed women to take reference, so only Xiao Ruyi squeezed into the first class and was hand-picked. For exploring flowers.
Compared with men, there are only 13 women on the list combined of civil and martial arts. Xiao Chongzhi watched His Majesty's cold expression, and thought: Here we come.
"Men with the same grades are given priority. Who made this rule?" Chi Heng dropped the fold in his hand.
The unfair selection of the imperial examination aroused the fury of Her Majesty the Empress, and several invigilators walked out of the Chongzheng Hall tremblingly, their souls were floating.
After some review, the imperial court added 30 women, the first thirteen, the last seventeen, and a full count of [-]. Compared with most men, the number is not enough.
Chi Heng vomited so much that he couldn't eat: "The capable ones live there, our country is vast, and the number of women for reference is so pitifully small..."
"Why is Your Majesty so angry?" Qing Heping said calmly, "Isn't there already thirty people on the list?
"30 people, enough for His Majesty, use them well, teach the world to see that women can also become officials, and they can walk steadily on the official road, and they are no worse than men. personal.
"But the road is wider and the lighthouse ahead is on. Naturally, countless people see that it is good to study and become an official."
With a few words, she dispelled Chi Heng's depression.
When the majesty came down with a sullen face, and when he left like a spring breeze, who would marvel at the empress's wisdom?
The imperial examination party came to an end, and Mrs. Xiao was summoned into the palace by the queen with her big belly. The palace people waited on her carefully, allowing her to ease the tension of early pregnancy, so she would be calm.
She was so bored at home that she still had the chance to be summoned by the Queen after she asked her husband to show her beauty to His Majesty.
As soon as she entered [Fengyi Palace], she burst into a smile: "The minister's wife has seen the empress!"
She was heavy, Qinghe didn't dare to ask her to really kneel down, Liuqin quickly helped Mrs. Xiao to stabilize.
After being given a seat, Rong Ling talked about the 30 women who entered the list in this subject, and sighed: "This kid came at a very good time, if not, I would like to give it a try."
She is known for her talents, so it may be that she is the reason why there are few female references this time.
Xiao Chongzhi is a giant in the literary world, and his daughter-in-law is one of the most talented women. People with such a great reputation have not ended up in the end, so people can't help but feel worried.
Opportunities have always been prepared for the courageous. Qingyun Road is at your feet, and whether you can go or not depends on everyone's heart.
She regretted a few words and didn't say any more.
Qinghe looked at her growing belly, and then thought about how Rong Ling would salute her carelessly when she entered the door. She felt lingering fear in her heart, and said with concern: "You are too reckless, you dare to run around while pregnant with a child."
If she hadn't kept shouting to enter the palace, Qinghe would not have called her into the palace.
It's a big deal, you have to wait for the baby to be born.
Speaking of the child, Rong Ling smiled heartily: "Your Majesty doesn't know something, I am a well-behaved child, and I seldom trouble me."
This is true, Qinghe glanced at her, and thought to himself: It's only been a few months, Ah Ling is going to be fat like a ball.
When she thought that her body shape would inevitably be out of shape during pregnancy, she became even more resistant, but she loved Chi Heng and didn't want her to be in trouble in that position. The succession to the throne must always be done with integrity, and she can't trust others.
Seeing her movement, Rong Ling strikes while the iron is hot: "Madam, why don't you come and touch her?"
touch?
Qinghe subconsciously developed a layer of fine skin bumps on his arms, his scalp was numb, and a thought gave birth to the hidden worry of "if you touch Ah Ling, the child will fall off".
It is extremely rare for her to look like this, and Rong Ling suppressed her serious smile. She wanted to see more expressions she hadn't seen before, and coaxed softly: "This child is very healthy. It is her blessing to touch her. She will grow up." better."
"Is it?"
After Chi Heng finished handling the government affairs, he made a decision to open up sea routes, and deliberately kept the palace officials silent. When he walked into the [Fengyi Palace], he saw her Wanwan carefully touching the stomachs of other women!
She kicked over the vinegar jar, put her fist on her lips, and cleared her throat.
She came by coincidence, Rong Ling tilted his head and saw the young, beautiful and majestic His Majesty, and was about to get up in a hurry, but the empress beside her whispered: "Oh!"
Chi Heng quickly walked over, worried: "Sister, what's going on?"
Qing He blinked, staring blankly at the open palm: "She, she just kicked me..."
"What?" Chi Heng stared blankly at Mrs. Xiao.
Rong Ling was impatient, and quickly argued: "The minister's wife dare not kick the empress!"
"..."
Her Majesty the Empress had strange eyes, looking at the little doll hiding in Mrs. Xiao's belly with a complex expression, thinking: It hasn't come out yet, and it's impossible to settle accounts.
Her eyes flickered, and she asked curiously, "Why did she kick you?"
Mrs. Xiao who was at the side listened to the empress talking about the child in her womb, always felt that the atmosphere was very strange.
She was sandwiched between the two, with a big belly, and suddenly had the outrageous thought of "Actually, she is not a pregnant woman, His Majesty and the Empress are the mothers of the child".
Feeling the unborn little life for the first time, Qinghe pulled Chi Heng to share the fresh feeling nervously, and Chi Heng put his hand on the queen's flat belly in a strange way.
When she realized what she had done, she suddenly became flustered when she looked at Shangqing and Shen Shen, and hurriedly withdrew her hand: "Zhen, I don't like children either!"
"Really?" Qing He glanced at Rong Ling's big belly, and the surprise that had risen just now burst like a bubble in an instant.
She thought with a headache: A Chi likes children more than she imagined.
She likes the milk doll crawling out of her stomach—a brand new life born of two people.
What A Chi wanted, there was nothing that Shen Qinghe couldn't give.
But if she wants a child...
It is okay to give, but children are not precious objects. If you give them, you have to be responsible. If you don’t raise them when you are born, and you don’t teach them when you raise them, that is a sin.
No child is born without a desire to be loved.
She panicked and fell into a daze: But who will teach her to be a competent mother?
She doesn't want to be the kind of person she hates.
I don't want to disappoint and embarrass A Chi.
More than anyone else, she wants to be a good queen who mothers the world...
"Wanwan? Wanwan?!"
Chi Heng held her chin nervously, looked at her bleeding lower lip in shock, annoyed and distressed: "Release, don't bite anymore."
