thank you + extra

"Speaking of which, Your Majesty should thank your aunt."

The Empress Dowager's words were like substance, floating high in the air, echoing unceasingly.

"Xie Xiang's mother is the youngest sister of Empress Wei. She and Prince Wei are cousins. When Xie Xiang was four years old, he was taken into the palace by Empress Wei to be raised. When he was fifteen, he left the palace and returned home. Your Majesty was born in Yeting. Maybe back then, she went to Yeting and hugged little Liu Zao who was still in her infancy."

With this layer of origin, Liu Zao suddenly figured out why Xie Yi didn't support Liu Jian with the Queen Mother at the beginning of Emperor Zhao's death.

In her dream, she stood face to face with Xie Yi, and asked: "But because I was sick at that time?" That's why she waited for two months, and only then joined hands with the Queen Mother to help her up when she recovered. throne.

Through the bright crown, she saw Xie Yi chuckle at her, his brows and eyes were gentle, and his tone was still neither close nor far away: "Your Majesty is holy."

At this point in the dream, it was considered serious, but the scene suddenly changed to Chengming Palace.

The scene was the same as tonight, she changed the crown, and sat on the couch in a black toga, she was the only one in the hall, the palace people seemed to have retreated, and the imperial order was not there.

In front of her is a long table, made of lacquered wood, with gold on the black background, with both ends turned up, a pile of letters stacked on the table, and a knife and pen.She was sitting on the wide couch behind the long case, resting her chest on one hand, not knowing what was going on in her mind, her eyes casually fell on the steps in front of the case.

The door of the hall was closed, and the windows were also closed, but a gust of wind came from nowhere, shaking the lights.She raised her head, as she did at night, and noticed the copper lamps in the hall.

Standing cattle, kneeling sheep, god guī, and god animals such as Luanfeng and Qilin.She looked over one by one, suddenly startled.One of the copper lamps was actually a woman.

The woman was kneeling on the ground, pressing her knees with one hand, holding the lamp in the other, her clothes half-tightened, her head slightly bowed, very shy.

Liu Zao in the dream was very bold. He stood up and asked, "Who are you?"

The woman didn't answer.There seemed to be a veil in front of her, hazy and vague, like a dream.

Liu Zao walked over, raised his voice slightly and said, "I ask who are you? Why are you in my palace?"

The woman still didn't answer, her hair was combed into an elegant bun, revealing a smooth and delicate nape of the neck, the clothes on her shoulders slipped off, revealing her soft and snow-white shoulders.Liu Zao's heart was pounding, he was a little scared, but also felt attracted.She raised her hand and pressed it on the hilt of the sword hanging from her waist, and took two steps forward, passed through the faintly visible layer of veil, and walked in front of the woman.

She smelled a familiar aroma.Liu Zao remembered the fragrance, she was a little happy, but also a little nervous, and called out, "Thank you."

The woman raised her head, it was Xie Yi's appearance.

The dream came to an abrupt end.

Liu Zao woke up suddenly, panting heavily.It's dark in front of me, it's in the sleeping hall.She subconsciously turned her head to look at the palace, the copper lamp was still on, but the woman in her dream had disappeared, and the half-luǒ beauty lamp of King Changyi was also ordered by the Huangmen Ling to move out.

Liu Zao let out a long sigh of relief, it was just a dream.They all blamed the king of Changyi for placing the lamp in the palace, and the order of the emperor was panting for breath, which made her dream of that bizarre scene.

It's just that Xie Xiang in the dream is really beautiful and seductive, completely different from her usual cold and reticent appearance.Liu Zao closed his eyes again, couldn't help recalling the scene in the dream, but couldn't remember clearly.

She quickly fell asleep again, this time without dreaming again.After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Chun He's voice sounded outside the hall: "Your Majesty, take the role."

Liu Zao was awakened, she responded, raised her hand and rubbed her dazed eyes, and was about to sit up when she suddenly felt something was wrong.

The little emperor's body stiffened, and the drowsiness subsided in an instant. She noticed that the between her legs was wet and sticky.Liu Zao's breathing was stagnant, she groped to get up, she wanted to turn to the screen and take off her silk trousers to have a look, but as soon as she landed, she caught a glimpse of a shocking mass of blood on the bed.

Chapter 14 Abdominal Pain

Liu Zao's mother passed away when she was three years old, so she didn't have time to leave the palace with her.For the next ten years, my grandmother took care of her with all her heart.When she was ten years old, a teacher was hired for her to teach her knowledge.Although the teacher is not a person of great learning, she only taught her one copy of "The Book of Songs", but it also made her know a lot of characters.

When she was 12 years old, her grandmother saw her growing up, and told her things that women should know, including first love.

Liu Zao stared blankly at the mass of blood on the bed for a moment, not knowing what to do.

"Your Majesty, take the role." Chun He called out again as he leaned against the palace door.

Only then did Liu Zao show the jerkyness of a young boy.Although she knew that it was common for Yue Xin to see blood, she didn't know who to turn to for help. The blood on the bed needs to be disposed of, and the silk pants are also stained, so they need to be replaced.No one in the palace knew her well, so it was difficult to speak.

"Your Majesty, it's time, it's time to get up." Chunhe said with some anxiety.

There is still a great dynasty today, so we can't delay it.Liu Zao was in a hurry, her stomach was in pain, she was at a loss, she thought of Xie Yi, and said to the outside of the hall, "Thank you for coming."

Although Chunhe wondered why His Majesty summoned the Prime Minister at this time, he did not dare to delay, and hastily sent a young eunuch with quick hands and feet to meet and thank the Prime Minister in Dongque.The East Tower is the two towers outside the main gate on the east side of Weiyang Palace. Xie Xiangfu's residence is in Shangguanli, and Shangguanli is in the east of Weiyang Palace.Xiang Xie must pass through Dongque when he enters the palace, and if he waits there, he will be able to stop Xie Xiang.

There was a noise outside the hall, Liu Zao knew that someone was going to ask for thank you, she pursed her lips, hoping that thank you would come and relieve her embarrassment.

"Your Majesty, let your ministers enter the palace to change your majesty's clothes." Chunhe sent a little eunuch to make noise again.

"I suddenly felt unwell and couldn't get up." Liu Zao said stiffly.

Chunhe was in a hurry, His Majesty just arrived at Weiyang yesterday, and he felt unwell, his words trembled: "I, I will call the medical officer here."

Liu Zao hurriedly said: "No need, just thank you for coming." She was afraid that Chun He would invite the medical officer seriously, and made everyone aware of her coming to Chu Chao, and said emphatically: "Don't worry about the order of the Huang family, thank you." Know my illness."

She raised her thank you, and Chunhe said hesitantly, "No."

Liu Zao raised his ears and listened carefully. There was no sound of footsteps outside the hall.Knowing that Chunhe didn't ask for a medical officer, Liu Zaofang heaved a sigh of relief and stood where he was.The sticky feeling in her legs became more and more obvious, she felt uncomfortable when she moved, the bed was dirty and she couldn't lie down, so she had to stand there blankly, waiting for the thank you.

In today's great dynasty, Prime Minister Xie must enter the palace.Liu Zao calculated the time, if luck is good, at most half an hour, Xie Xiang will be able to arrive at Chengming Palace.She waited like this for a long time, when there was a sound of footsteps outside the hall, the voice of spring and harmony went from near to far, and she went out to greet her: "I have seen the prime minister."

Liu Zao bit her lower lip, her palms were wet with cold sweat.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister has an audience."

Liu Zao took a deep breath, stabilized his tone, and said, "The prime minister, please enter alone, and the rest wait outside the hall."

"No." This was Xie Yi's voice, calm and calm.

Liu Zao suddenly calmed down, but when Xie Yi pushed open the palace door and walked up to her, she panicked again.

The reason why she thought of asking Xie Yi for help was because she remembered that Xie Yi was her aunt.For such a matter, she should ask her elders to forgive her, but when Xie Yi came in front of her, she remembered that although she was an elder, she was not familiar with them, and they had only met a few times.

Liu Zao clenched his fists, and his breathing sank.

Xie Yi greeted her as usual, then raised her head and asked, "I heard that His Majesty is not feeling well in the Eucharist, so I need to call a medical officer."

Liu Zao didn't speak.

Xie Yi felt puzzled, His Majesty was more serious, but he was not an awkward child, and said, "Your Majesty summoned the ministers, but did you have a secret order?"

Liu Zao shook her head, she turned slightly sideways, revealing the bed behind her.The blood stain was quite conspicuous, Xie Yi saw it with a glance, a smile appeared in her eyes, fearing that the little emperor would be annoyed, she quickly restrained her smile, and said in a calm tone: "It's okay, it's not Serious illness, Your Majesty don't need to panic."

Seeing that she didn't laugh at her, Liu Zao nodded and said, "I know. It's just..." Her cheeks were slightly red, and she tried to look calm, "It's just that my body is dirty, and I don't know how to deal with it."

As soon as Xie Yi heard it, she knew that the little emperor was thin-skinned, and she was too embarrassed to talk to outsiders. She shook her head and said, "The palace will take care of it, Your Majesty just needs to take a bath as soon as possible."

After she finished speaking, she wanted to go outside the palace to call the palace servants in, but when she took a step, her sleeves were pulled.

The little emperor's eyes showed a little nervousness, and he pleaded, "Can we not let others know?"

Xie Yi couldn't help smiling, "This happens every month..." Seeing the tension in Liu Zao's eyes, she slowed down and said with relief, "It's unavoidable for all women, it's natural and common sense, Your Majesty don't need to be shy. People don’t talk too much about it.”

Listening to her saying that there is no need to be shy, Liu Zao's cheeks turned even redder. After thinking about it, he thought that what Prime Minister Xie said was reasonable. The emperor's food, clothing, housing and transportation were all served by people, and it was very difficult to avoid people.She remained calm and said to Xie Xiang: "So, I have Mrs. Lao."
