Are you stupid?

Mrs. Cui lived her whole life. When her father and brother were in high positions in the boudoir, they felt superior; when they got married and became a woman, they gave birth to children one after another, and their waist was extremely hard, but they were still superior; , Empress, Empress Dowager, Mrs. Cui took advantage of her granddaughter's two faces, and she was even less popular in the circle of noble ladies in Beijing. Who would dare to say a word in front of her to make her sick.

It's not that Mrs. Cui didn't mention Yuan and Emperor's frugality to Mrs. Cui when she came to pay her respects. Empress Dowager Cui also changed her business in the palace, but Mrs. Cui just heard about it and didn't mention it at all on heart.

Looking back, Mrs. Cui was still talking and laughing with her daughter-in-law and grand-daughter-in-law to study how to organize her [-]th birthday.

Mrs. Cui felt that she was the great-grandmother of Emperor Yuanhe, and in the name of celebrating her birthday, she sent someone to bring the silver taels directly to the official kiln, to play prestige to the small official who was in charge of the official kiln, and insisted on spending money to buy special items inside. Bricks and tiles fired for the repair of the palace.

On the face of the petty official, he kept saying that he did not dare to offend him, and after he had stabilized him, he said that there was no stock in the brick kiln and that it had to be fired immediately. He asked Cui's steward to leave the money and the signature, and come back at the appointed time. .As soon as the manager of the Cui family left, the petty official in charge of the official kiln immediately wrapped up the silver and the signature and reported the matter directly to the palace.

Although the position of a small official is low, he can go directly to heaven.

Shenlong knew what the Cui family did that day, but he had just punished the "cousin" of Cui Er's family before, and slapped the Cui family severely in the face. The ones to be dealt with are "foreign relatives" - I can't write two characters of Cui in one stroke. The Empress Dowager Cui's father is the third master of the Cui family, but he moved out to live alone because he accepted the imperial gifted house instead of branching out. There is really a Cui family. Anyway, if he failed to follow the "one prosperity and all prosperity", he would have "one loss and all loss".

Master Cui and his son are currently in the Northeast to stabilize the territory for him. Shenlong really doesn't want to make the courtiers in other places suspicious.

After a little hesitation, Shenlong took the little official who was in charge of the brick kiln to the Changchun Palace, and asked the little official to tell Queen Mother Cui what the Cui family was doing now.

Empress Cui didn't show her face, and even gave some things to the little official, gently saying that the Cui family's mischief made him embarrassed, and when the little official left, Empress Cui's face was full of sadness that was about to come.

Shenlong knew at that time that the Cui family was not doing well. These days, in order to fear that the aging Empress Dowager Cui would suffer from illness, she spent a lot of time talking and laughing with the Empress Dowager Cui, trying to make her feel at ease. On the day of her birthday, after Yujia passed by Cui's house outside the courtyard, and casually provided the nearby residents with a running water mat, the anger that the Empress Dowager Cui had suppressed in her heart was completely ignited.

Shenlong sat down and drank scented tea one after another, just thinking of himself as a little dumb, not hindering the performance of the queen mother at all.

Empress Dowager Cui's combat effectiveness can definitely stand the test of time.

Sure enough, after Empress Cui asked Mrs. Cui if she was so extravagant and extravagant during her lifetime, she didn't intend to mourn after death, the expression on Mrs. Cui's face was almost the same as that of a dead person in an instant.

Even so, Empress Dowager Cui refused to let this group of restless clansmen go, threateningly said: "Along the way, I saw that the bricks, tiles and slabs are not ordinary, and it seems to have exceeded the limit. Grandma celebrates her birthday today, so I will Don't argue with grandma anymore. After half a month, I will send servants from the inner palace to Cui's mansion to inspect, if there is any improvement, I will not be able to cover it up."

Her beautiful eyes glanced at the relatives with shrunken necks, and she curled her lips into a smile, "It's easier for a foreign relative to tolerate criticism if you are arrogant. You should know that you have today's glory by relying on a woman. The woman you rely on cares more about your son. Your Majesty's table It’s been a few days since the desk was full of papers about the extravagance and corruption of officials attending Cui’s family, so you should take care of yourself. Anyway, without my natal family, I’m still the queen of the Great Zhou Dynasty.”

"Okay." Empress Dowager Cui waved her hand, "I didn't intend to say anything. Your Majesty came here to celebrate the old lady's birthday."

Empress Cui finally let go of this festival, and the Cui family breathed a sigh of relief from top to bottom. They averted their eyes and stared at Yuan and Emperor, and couldn't help raising expectations.

Since His Majesty is willing to keep the Cui family since he is frequently harassed by the officials, he must want to keep them.

As long as the congratulatory gift from His Majesty...

Before the Cui family could finish their beautiful imagination, Shenlong smiled and said, "My elders don't live as long as the old lady, and I don't know what to give. After much deliberation, I had to order someone to cast a statue of Guanyin to celebrate The old lady’s eightieth birthday—Bauhinia, present my birthday gift to the old lady.”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Zijing gave her servant a look.

The servant who escorted the treasure box along the way hurried forward, knelt down in front of the old lady Cui and said auspicious words, then opened the one-foot-square brocade box, revealing a pure gold Guanyin statue less than three inches long, "Old lady Madam, if you look carefully, this Guanyin looks like it is made of pure gold, with a solid core of pure gold. Every strand of hair is clearly defined, and it couldn't be more delicate."

A three-inch pure gold Guanyin statue?Even if it is solid, how much money can it cost!

Mrs. Cui was originally full of expectations, but now she really couldn't even say Xie En's words.

Shenlong seemed to be afraid that Mrs. Cui would not understand his perfunctory spirit, and explained seriously, "After all, I will come here with my mother, empty-handed is not good. I heard that the old lady believes in Buddhism, so I will touch it every day. Years of Buddhist scriptures, pure heart and few desires, good for the body."

Mrs. Cui's old blood welled up in her heart, but she could only thank her with a smile on her face, "Thank you for your majesty's concern. After the old lady's birthday banquet, she must eat fast and chant Buddha."

"That's good." Shenlong raised his eyes and glanced outside the courtyard, frowned in distaste for the crowded environment, and his tone became even lighter, "You all go to accompany the guests, and you don't have to guard me. Go up A few small snacks, just replace the tea. The mother doesn't like the dried flowers in the incense slices, so you come here instead with clear tea."

The emperor said that he wanted to rest by himself, and no one would stop him. Even if the Cui family wanted to stay in the tone of Tan Yuan and the emperor, they still had no choice but to leave after a while.

The kitchen has been busy, and tea and snacks are always on hand, and they were delivered in a short while.

A young woman approached slowly holding a tea bowl. He had a graceful figure and a graceful gait. His eyes seemed to contain a pool of spring water, and he held the teacup in a look of eagerness.

It's a pity that before the woman approached, Zijing, who was guarding the door, took too many tea trays from her hand in a vicious voice, and scolded the servant in a cold voice, "Don't you know that the food delivered to the imperial court will be poisoned after you leave the palace!"

The little eunuch quickly lowered his head, took out the silver needle from his back pocket, and after confirming that the refreshments were safe, he took a step forward to block the young woman, and said to Bauhinia with a smile, "Auntie, the snacks and tea are safe, I'm tired and I'll take a trip .”

Bauhinia rolled her eyes at the young woman, went in with a tray, set the refreshments neatly, and returned without saying a word.

Hmph, the well-behaved maid didn't come over to serve, but instead brought a young lady over. She said that she seemed to treat the king more attentively, but in fact, no one knew what the Cui family was aiming for.

With Bauhinia intervening, the young woman didn't even touch the door frame, let alone see what the young king looked like.

She stood there for a while, sure that she would not be summoned from inside, so she could only stamp her feet and turn around helplessly.

Empress Dowager Cui winked, and immediately a servant went outside to check, and when she came back, she found that the girl from the Cui family had gone, and whispered back: "She has already left."

Empress Dowager Cui looked at her son with pity, and joked, "I'm right. You're even more uncomfortable when you're out of the palace. Some people regard you as a ladder to the sky and want to climb up with you."

Shenlong touched his nose in embarrassment, "My son has not yet fulfilled the three-year filial piety."

Empress Dowager Cui smiled meaningfully, "It's not better if you haven't passed the filial piety period. A woman who is too easy to get is not worth cherishing. You can't get her all the time during the filial piety period. She will be different from other people when she enters the palace in the future. Reminding you how hard it was to get her in the first place will make you feel precious. From then on, you will be invincible."

And this kind of shit?

Shenlong was amazed when he heard it.

In the past, Shenlong was a little dazed in terms of relationships, and he was not moved. Later, after being connected with Mu Huaiyuan, the two separated. He felt that he was not single, and he never paid any attention to men and women. Isn't that what theory is about Shenlong and Mu Huaiyuan?

Although the separation has widened the distance between them, it does make the thoughts and feelings more mellow.

The most important thing is that when Shenlong first entered the court, Shenlong saw many faces of courtiers fighting for power. The successful separation between him and Mu Huaiyuan made Shenlong distinguish Mu Huaiyuan from courtiers, and did not recognize the kind of courtiers. Resentment spread to Mu Huaiyuan.Up to now, Shenlong has gradually understood the dirty methods of the court, even if Mu Huaiyuan used the same tricks in front of him in the future, Shenlong would not think that those methods were bad.

Shenlong understood the deep meaning of Empress Dowager Cui's words, but soon another doubt, "But queen mother, don't the Cui family know some of the gossip in the court today? It is the girls of the Cui family who enter the palace, and it is impossible for them to get a high position."

Empress Dowager Cui smiled because of her son's innocence in the relationship between men and women, "Silly boy, after entering the palace, can you really ignore my face at all? Her surname is Cui, even if she is not high, she will not Too low; and at that time, when she goes to Changchun Palace every day, you will see her a lot, and you will feel that she is not causing trouble. Sooner or later, you will think that she is a poor woman who is controlled by a certain family. If you are careful, you will be favored sooner or later. "

"...Empress Mother, I was frightened by you." Shenlong patted his heart, winking pitifully at Empress Dowager Cui.

Empress Cui watched her son intentionally tease herself to laugh, and finally asked what she had kept in her heart all along, "Shenlong, tell the truth to the empress, do you, do you have someone in your heart?"

Shenlong pinched Dim Sum's fingers for a while, and said as naturally as possible, "Why can't the children understand what the queen mother said."

"Shenlong, even if a man can tolerate that the woman or man he likes does not belong to him, he will not take the initiative to put a green hat on his head-Xingye's child is a boy, and after you say that he is your own emperor, I am sure of myself. Guess in my heart." Empress Cui gently held Shenlong's palm, and said distressedly, "You have treated yourself harshly, if you really like it, the queen mother will not stop you."

Shenlong: "..."

But Mu Huaiyuan will never be able to "enter the palace", it is more troublesome than liking a minister's wife.
