As soon as Bu Qianxue left Anren Palace, the maid sent by the Empress Dowager arrived. At this moment, she was summoned suddenly, and she didn't know what it was, so she changed her way to Yongshou Palace, and happened to miss Shi Min and his group perfectly.

Only after arriving at Yongshou Palace did I know that the queen mother asked her to come here to join a table to play with leaves, because the originally agreed banquet prince and concubine could not come, so the queen mother, Liqin Wangfei and Beijun prince and concubine were missing one out of three. .

Everyone came, obviously it was impossible not to play, after some salutes and acceptance, they went to the table to gather a corner, and the four of them started to play.

I don't know who taught the Queen Mother how to play the Leaf Opera. Anyway, the fact that the Empress Dowager likes to play the Leaf Opera has been well known in the palace for nearly half a month. Basically, she plays a few times a day. Entering the palace to play together, the most frequently called are the above three.

Sometimes Wen Yu would directly ask the internal officials to play a few rounds at the table, especially in the afternoon or evening, because she would be busy meditating in the morning and noon, doing homework, watering potted plants, and feeding pets.

After Shi Min turned the corner and survived the catastrophe, Wen Yu took the gossip flag and the gossip mirror into the room. Now Ruoguang looked from the outside, and it was completely impossible to tell that it was the room she specially used for meditation and homework.

As for the various flowers and plants left by Empress Wude, Wen Yu has also been taking good care of them, fertilizing, turning the soil and watering them all personally, and occasionally doing it herself. He couldn't bear it anymore, and Shi Min finally made up his mind before the accident and let the manager Dian personally take them to the woods in the suburbs to release them.

As soon as the rabbits left, there was only one tortoise shell raised in the entire Yongshou Palace, but it took a lot of time and energy to take care of it every day. After all, it was big enough and had a lot of food, so it could only be raised in sea water. .

Although Wen Yu doesn't need to raise the tortoiseshell herself, she doesn't feel at ease if she doesn't look at her personally. After all, tortoises have been auspicious animals since ancient times, and they are also a symbol and representative of longevity, so they cannot be raised to death in her hands.

No one deliberately taught her Ye Zixi, but she suddenly became interested in learning it by herself, or it may be because she is old and likes to be lively, so she chose this kind of game that requires four people to play.

Not to mention, ever since the Prince and Princess of Li and others came to the palace to play leaf plays together or occasionally watch shadow puppet shows together, Wen Yu became more cheerful and talked a lot. Sometimes he heard them gossip outside the palace, listened to When it comes to the funny part, I laugh more than anyone else.

In the final analysis, Wen Yu's mentality has changed. Her daughter's sudden almost death not only gave her a fatal blow, but also made her understand the fragility and perishability of life. Empress Wu De has passed away. Even if she blames herself and feels guilty, Wu Empress De will not come back to life either.

Since she can't change the result, she herself will follow in the footsteps of Empress Wude one day, so why not live every day happily?She has already confessed what should be done, and she will continue to do what should be done. If she really cannot escape punishment, then go underground and receive it.

Anyway, she didn't want to keep frowning, not to mention that the child was unfamiliar with her, and her life was even more depressing.Seeing that the three-year filial piety period is coming to an end, she intends to let herself go.

Wen Yu was able to make such a change. In addition to the catalyst of Shi Min's assassination, the foundation was also laid for the past two years to occasionally go to the Taoist temple to discuss and chat with the Taoist priest, because the Taoist priest with profound Taoism is always quite comfortable in comforting people's hearts. good at.

So later when Shi Min really wanted to hand over the power of the government to Bu Qianxue, she didn't say anything, because she had said what should be said, and she had fulfilled her duty. If the child didn't accept it, she couldn't force herself The child accepts it.

After all, compared to her understanding of Bu Qianxue, she must be inferior to her own child, because the child and Bu Qianxue are a couple, and she is only an elder, and she is only an elder. Even if she has some selfish intentions, her arms cannot twist her thighs after all. .

However, it turns out that Bu Qianxue is indeed better at handling political affairs than she is. Not to mention that political affairs are handled in an orderly manner, even Shi Min's daily life is also taken care of very well, including hers of course, so every time she goes to see Shi Min, she She couldn't get in, which made her both frustrated and relieved.

She could see everything Bu Qianxue did, especially Bu Qianxue moved up a chair by herself and didn't sit on a phoenix chair. Gradually disappeared.

So today there were three shortages and one was missing, Wen Yu's first thought was Bu Qianxue, and she also considered that the political affairs in the afternoon should be suspended for a while before asking someone to invite them, otherwise she could just call an internal official to make up the number.

"Nine coins..."

"Six coins..."

As soon as Shi Min entered Yongshou Palace, she heard the sound of playing leaves. She called the palace attendant just now to inquire, and after confirming that Bu Qianxue was inside, she was not in a hurry. I only brought Lu Guanchu in.

"I lost." After Bu Qianxue finished speaking, she folded the cards and threw them in the middle of the table, and began to count the money to pay. The pile of silver in front of her was almost gone.

It wasn't that she was unlucky today, or that her skills were poor, but that the other three were either elders or older than her. She was too embarrassed to win, so she had to lose.

The three queen mothers were very happy to receive the money from Bu Qianxue, and were about to start the next round, when Wen Yu, who was sitting opposite the palace gate, saw Shi Min and immediately said happily: "Why doesn't the emperor take a good rest in Hanliang Palace? ".

Shi Min, who originally wanted to observe secretly, could only smile and salute: "May the mother be blessed and healthy, I will miss my mother, my son and minister are in good health, and I will come here when I miss my mother."

Shi Min saw Wen Yu's change, and felt happy in his heart. She should be the one who should blame himself and feel guilty the most, but it made Wen Yu feel sad and depressed day by day. She also persuaded him, but unfortunately it didn't work. It was not good, and when there was no other way, she could only start with the things she cared about, talked to the priests, and advised Wen Yu to go to the Taoist temple occasionally for three or two days.

Although it has some effect, the effect is not very significant. I thought it would continue like this, but I didn't expect that she survived the catastrophe, and Wen Yu looked at her a lot. It was a pleasant surprise.

After learning that Wen Yu likes to play Leaf Opera, she specially sent Lu Guanchu to send 2000 taels of silver bills there, fearing that she would not have enough money to play to the fullest, after all, if the game is big, a hundred taels of silver is not enough to lose.

At the beginning, she and Xing Boen and the others secretly played, and the games were relatively small. After one game, she lost almost dozens of taels of silver when she lost the worst. Being too unlucky was one of the reasons why she didn't like to play leaf games.

Bu Qianxue, Prince Li and Princess Beijun also got up and saluted, "Your Majesty, I respectfully wish you peace", "Excuse me".

"Since you're here, let's play together. You won't just be a family with Qianxue, learn from it." Wen Yu said happily, and the two princes and princesses who originally wanted to resign could only smile and sit back.

"Okay, my son heard that this leaf opera is very popular in my dynasty. If you learn it, you can also accompany your mother to relieve boredom in the future." No chance of getting close.

But Bu Qianxue was not happy when she heard the words, but it was not easy to show it in front of her elders, so she could only pretend to be nonchalant and ask someone to add a stool beside her, Shi Yanzhen sat down, and she deliberately left a little space .

But Shi Min, who wanted to get close, pretended not to understand at all, and did not say anything, and deliberately touched Bu Qianxue's hand when drawing cards. Take a look.

But Shi Min saw that she didn't see it, and continued to go her own way thick-skinned. Bu Qianxue was so angry that her teeth itched and helpless, but this was not the worst. After that, it became a real loss.

Prince Li and Concubine Li and Princess Beijun, who did not dare to win the emperor's money, could only throw out the winning cards. After a few rounds, the biggest winner became the queen mother. Seeing that the emperor and Zhonggong only had the last two taels of silver left. , and it was getting late, so the Prince and Princess Li took the lead to leave, and the Prince and Princess of Beijun quickly agreed.

If they continue to play at this level, the two of them should not have enough money. Zhonggong is indeed unlucky, but they dare not be too lucky. After all, the most important thing to play with the Queen Mother is of course the Queen Mother. happy.

Wen Yu originally wanted to stay with the two of them for dinner and then watch the shadow puppet show, but she was too embarrassed to ask to stay when Shi Yan was around.

Wen Yu, who didn't notice anything unusual about the two of them at all, cheerfully asked the manager to go down to arrange dinner, and went to the bedroom to change clothes.

Under the signal of Shi Min's eyes, Lu Guanchu sent the rest of the palace servants outside, even Lu Yan, and finally closed the door.

Knowing Shi Min's intentions, Bu Qianxue didn't stop her. She found a seat and sat down. As soon as she sat down, Shi Min sat next to her. Bu Qianxue didn't look at her anywhere.

Shi Min, who wanted to meet Bu Qianxue's eyes, had no choice but to give up, and said softly: "I know what you said was angry, so why am I not? There is an old saying that the great affairs of the Yun Kingdom are between the priests and the soldiers, regardless of whether they fight or not. Nothing can be settled overnight, and a decision needs to be made after deliberation, not to mention the fact that you and I are getting married soon, and the matter of sending troops needs to be carefully considered, do you think it makes sense?".

"It's true that the wedding is imminent, but it doesn't affect sending troops. After all, you still don't want to send troops." Bu Qianxue retorted bluntly, still not looking at Shi Min.

"Why doesn't it affect you? My wedding is a big event for the whole world to celebrate, and the defense of Fandu is the most important thing. At that time, the ministers of civil and military affairs all over the country will send congratulatory gifts. In order to prevent foreign countries from taking the opportunity to cause chaos, the frontier fortresses will also have to be built. With [-] points of energy, the most powerful troops can't be mobilized, how can this soldier be dispatched? They can't be dispatched at all!" Shi Min learned his lesson and continued to explain softly.

"If you put it this way, it seems to be the same reason. We should discuss it carefully before the wedding. As for whether to send troops or not, we will talk about it after the wedding. I hope you can give a definite answer then." Hearing Shi Min talk about their marriage, Bu Qianxue was very happy in her heart, but her face was deliberately stern, and her voice was obviously much softer than before.

Shi Min, who heard it, continued to insist: "Okay, I will definitely give you a definite answer at that time." I will talk about the rest of the matter later, first stabilize Bu Qianxue, and we will talk about it after the wedding.

"But I will not take back what I said. Since you are already well, I will no longer take care of the affairs of the court. After all, this huge harem also needs to be taken care of by me." There is no better way, so I can only use this matter to express my attitude.

Shi Min was about to stage another bitter trick, but she was too late and didn't give her a chance to perform at all.

During the dinner, Wen Yu also deliberately made a nonsense, it is still very important not to meet before marriage, Bu Qianxue immediately walked down the slope, promising to return home after dinner.

Shi Min, who wanted to stop it, watched the two singing the oboe, and didn't give her a chance to interrupt at all, so he could only ruthlessly ate all the food in his bowl. ?
