Qing Yan

In the dead of night, in the side hall of Kuntai Palace, Jing Yan sat upright.

"Master, Shen Quan has brought it." Bing Bi replied.

"Bring him to see Ai's family." Jing Yan's voice was flat, with no tiredness on his face.

Bingbi agreed, and when he turned back again, the submissive Shen Quan was behind him.

"Slave Shen Quan pays homage to the Empress Dowager." Shen Quan bowed and saluted.

Jing Yan lightly "Yes", noncommittal, neither asked him to get up without courtesy, nor said anything, just looked at his drooping head as if nothing had happened.

The queen mother didn't let her get up, so Shen Quan could only continue to lean on the gold brick, but his heart was worried.

It's a quarter past two, and the little emperor has already rested.He was not on duty tonight, so he stepped on the moonlight, wanting to go back to the dormitory to wash and sleep early, and to get up early tomorrow to take care of him.Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked halfway, he was stopped by Aunt Bingbi and someone led him directly to Kuntai Palace, saying that "the queen mother has something to ask you".

Shen Quan has been in the palace for many years and has served the little emperor for a long time. He is no longer the ignorant and dull boy of the past.As soon as Bingbi spoke, he knew that the queen mother wanted to ask him about the emperor's sneaking out of the palace during the day.

This matter cannot be hidden from the Queen Mother, Shen Quan knows it very well.As for how to deal with it, it all depends on her old man's mind.All he could do was to silently pray for the empress dowager's generosity, even if he was annoyed by the emperor's mischief, he would lightly punish himself for the sake of the emperor.As the saying goes, "Half a king is like a tiger accompanying a tiger", it does not necessarily mean that being a king is so moody, but that he enjoys great glory and at the same time bears great risks.You know, there is no benefit in this world that does not have to pay a price.

Along the way, although the night was as cold as water, Shen Quan did not feel cold.He didn't know how the Empress Dowager would "handle" herself. If she was charged with "instigating the emperor to fail to learn well" again, she would be furious, and it would not be so safe for her head to rest on her neck.

Life is at stake, and Shen Quan can't calm down.A gust of wind blew past, just brushing off the cold sweat on his forehead and back, and Shen Quan couldn't help shaking.

Tianwei is unpredictable, maybe this is the feeling?

Kneeling on the ground, Shen Quan thought anxiously.After serving the little emperor for many years, he didn't feel any "unpredictable". The silent empress dowager in front of him made him truly understand these four words.

"How did you play with His Majesty today?" Suddenly, Jing Yan asked casually.

Shen Quan trembled again, and quickly kowtowed: "Your servant knows your mistake! I beg the Queen Mother to forgive me!"

Jing Yan smiled slightly: "Have you ever made a mistake? Look at how happy your master is today."

Shen Quan was even more frightened: "Slaves dare not! Slaves dare not!"

Jing Yan stopped him, and said: "The Ai family knows that you are now the seventh-rank title, and ordinary eunuchs and nuns can't do anything to stop you. But I don't know what the Ai family can do to you?"

Shen Quan kowtowed again in fear, and said anxiously: "The master of the empress dowager has killed the slaves!"

Seeing that he was afraid, Jing Yan changed the topic: "Aijia knows that you are a respectful child, and you are kind to the emperor from the bottom of your heart. You have been with your master and servant for more than seven years, and your sincerity to her is no less than that of Aijia. The difference is that the Ai family is... caring for the emperor, and you are loyal to the emperor."

She originally wanted to say "Aijia's love for the emperor", but she swallowed the word after a few turns on her lips.After going through the daytime events, this pure "sister-in-law's love", no matter how hard it is for Jing Yan to vomit it without any worries.

Shen Quan secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.Although he is honest by nature, he still has the means to observe words and emotions after living in the forbidden palace for a long time.Obviously, the queen mother would not blame him for her words.

So he wisely did not respond, but respectfully listened to the queen mother's next words.

Jing Yan said earnestly: "So, Shen Quan, you should appreciate the motherly love Aijia has for the emperor. May I ask which mother in the world is willing to put her children in unknown danger?"

"Slaves save it, but follow the Queen Mother's orders."

Jing Yan nodded in satisfaction: "It's so good. The Ai family only asks you, did the emperor go to the West Market today?"

"The Queen Mother is wise, Your Majesty did go there." Shen Quan replied honestly.

Jing Yan smiled lightly: "Where is the wise and the unwise? This man is so lifelike, looking around the capital, besides the 'mianren Zhao' family, who else can there be?"

Her gaze has involuntarily landed on the small portrait of Yu Wenrui standing on the small table beside her——

This naughty and lazy appearance really looks like Wuyou.

There was a hint of a smile on the corner of Jing Yan's mouth, but he didn't notice it.

Bingbi took a peek at the focused look in the Empress Dowager's eyes, secretly startled.

But for a moment, Jing Yan's expression returned to normal.

"Get up and talk," she said to Shen Quan, "Who did the emperor meet today and what happened, you and Ai's family come together."

Seeing that Shen Quan seemed a little hesitant, Jing Yan said softly again: "You should understand Aijia's thoughts. Aijia can also guess your thoughts. You have been in the palace for many years, and you should know that Aijia has never been harsh. People don't want to do things that hurt others. The Ai family only needs to listen to the truth, and the truth is only for the safety of the emperor. You must not let down the trust of the Ai family!"

Shen Quan stood with his head bowed, answering "yes" again and again.

The Empress Dowager Jing Yan is different from the Empress Dowager, she has always been lenient and has a temperament of not offending me and not offending others.This point, who in the whole palace doesn't know?She not only gave herself a step up, but also gave herself face, Shen Quan felt that if she didn't tell the whole story, it would be a disappointment to the empress dowager's benevolence.

So he honestly told how he went out of the palace with the emperor, how the emperor wandered in the West Market, how he fought against injustice in the delicacy and jade restaurant, and how he restrained the frightened horse that was galloping and rescued Mu Yihan, including Mu Yihan's background and Hong'er confessed all of her pleadings.

Yu Wenrui, who was sleeping peacefully in the dormitory, felt hot in her ears in her sleep, and sneezed several times in succession with "Ah Sneeze" and "Ah Sneeze"—she didn't know that her family had been sold out!

When Jing Yan heard about Yu Wenrui's various adventures for the first time, he was still interested, so he couldn't help amused and angrily complained to himself that the little emperor was childish.But the more she heard it, the more frightened she became, especially the part about Mu Yihan.

"That little eighth girl is all right, the emperor has always had a heart of benevolence, and it is only natural for people to rescue emergencies..." In fact, she was not angry, especially the money bag, which took four or five days to sew in her busy schedule. It was made, but it was easily given away by this little friend?Fortunately, I was in a hurry to rush to work, so I didn't embroider any dragon logo, otherwise these things would be lost to the people, so it would be fine!

"It's just that Miss Mu, the place where the fireworks are waiting is definitely not where the emperor should set foot." Jing Yan frowned slightly, "The emperor said that she would go on the eighth day..."

Conceited of his status, when he mentioned "that kind of place" to a servant, Jing Yan's cheeks were slightly hot.

"Yes, His Majesty has indeed promised that girl Hong'er."

"Forget it, the Ai family knows. You go back now. Serve the emperor carefully as usual. As long as you uphold a public heart and be loyal to your duties, in the future, you will have your own results."

Shen Quan was grateful and respectful at the same time, bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty should serve His Majesty as a servant, and live up to the trust of the Empress Dowager."

Jing Yan nodded: "Go."

"Master, it's late at night, it's time for you to rest." Bingbi said with concern.

Shen Quan retreated for a while, while Jing Yan was still sitting upright in a silent trance.

Jing Yan sighed: "Tell me, how can a child who is only 15 years old come up with so many tricks? When Ai Jia was 15 years old, how could she be as nonsense as she is?"

Bingbi smiled apologetically and persuaded: "Our Majesty is the king of a country, and the master is a lady of every family. Naturally, His Majesty should be more energetic."

Jing Yan smiled wryly and shook his head: "What energy is there? You're like a living monkey!"

Not only jumping up and down, but also speaking freely.During the day, he still said, "Sister-in-law doesn't live, and I don't live alone"!What "Yellow Spring and Biluo follows Auntie"!Red lips and white teeth, is this kind of nonsense?

Jing Yan supported her forehead, only feeling a headache, she sighed: "Raising children is really hard work!"

The seventh day of the lunar new year is the birthday of Emperor Mingzong Yu Wenzhe, and Zhang Luo of the Ministry of Rites has his own memorial service.

As the emperor, Yu Wenrui was so busy that he didn't end until [-]:[-] noon.She has always disliked red tape, and she had a conversation with her sister-in-law in Fengxian Hall the other day.Although Sister-in-law treated her as usual, she blurted out "I will never live alone", thinking about it now, I still feel embarrassed.

This is often the case in the world. It is one thing not to regret, but another thing to be embarrassed.

She ate a mouthful of food indiscriminately, and didn't bother to approve the memorial, so she simply leaned on the couch, thinking about how to trick her out of the palace to rescue Mu Yihan tomorrow.

Auntie guessed that she had sneaked out of the palace, but she didn't care about it, and she didn't even mention it, isn't it strange?Yu Wenrui could imagine that sister-in-law had already arranged the arrangement, and only waited for him to dare to leave the palace one day, so he "caught" his own account and settled it together.

Yu Wenrui felt scratching his head: What should I do?Miss Mu can't be saved if she can't get out of the palace; isn't it a pity that a good-looking girl is ruined like this?No way!Anyway, must go!Even if anyone fell in love with Miss Mu, it would have to be a bright matchmaker marrying her. How could it be like selling goods?

love...

She suddenly thought of what sister-in-law said "women like women", and suddenly got up.She is too curious about how women "like" women.

"Shen Quan! Shen Quan!" Yu Wenrui called out repeatedly.

Shen Quan heard the voice of this ancestor after traveling all the way, and without waiting for anyone to reply, he rushed in quickly: "Come here!"

As he spoke, he pulled up his skirt and saluted, "My maidservant pays homage to me..."

"Excuse me! Excuse me!" Yu Wenrui waved his hand impatiently, rolled his eyes, saw that there was no one else in the room, and the well-behaved servant at the door was also standing far away, so he lowered his voice and said, "But Got it?"

Apply for full allowance.Ancestor, can you make a difference?

He got up from the ground, wiped away the sweat that was dripping from his face because he was in a hurry to get back, wrapped his clothes around his chest, approached Yu Wenrui, and said in a low voice: "Got it."

"Bring it quickly!" Yu Wenrui couldn't wait.

Shen Quanjun blushed.That thing makes people blush.

He looked around vigilantly, and found that there was no third person approaching except for the master and servant, so he carefully took out two booklets from his arms: "The servant finally got these two books..."

Yu Wenrui grabbed it, glanced at Shen Quan, turned around, turned his back to him, and turned the pages of the book with trembling hands——

Immediately, her face also turned red, and she turned around and slapped the two booklets on Shen's body: "Idiot! Idiot! Where did you get this dirty thing!"

Shen Quan was stunned: Isn't that what you're talking about?Although you hesitated to speak, but the servant understands! What is "that thing" if it's not this thing?

The two booklets fell to the ground, and a few pages were scattered. The inside was full of bright and bare pictures of male and female monsters fighting...
