Atypical empress relationship

Such a detailed report, so I can only cough a little awkwardly and say

"Feed Xiaoyu——I saw it screaming in hunger, so I couldn't bear it, so I gave it to it."

After a pause, he added unconvincingly

"I thought someone should prepare food for you, so I didn't bring it. If you don't eat it, wouldn't it be a waste?"

What I said, in the queen's heart, it seems that the majestic lord of a country is not as important as a cat.

Zhao Ji raised his eyebrows and said thoughtfully

"How did I never know that you have such a good habit of thrift?"

Huaiyu walked over and said

"Just developed."

This makes people have nothing to say, and it feels very presumptuous.

Zhao Ji felt that he should be furious and show his prestige, but after thinking about it for a while, he looked at Huaiyu's loose body and thought, whoever makes himself a kind and good emperor will forgive him this time .

Zhao Ji lowered his head and said

"How do you remember to come here?"

He didn't remember what happened, Huaiyu sat on the stool in front of him and said calmly

"You were not in the palace last night?"

Zhao Ji slightly raised his eyes and looked at him suspiciously, as if he didn't know why he said that

"I have been in the palace."

It's just that this palace is not that palace.

Huaiyu was very patient and continued to ask

"I mean, you left Yunhe Palace in the middle of the night last night, where did you go?"

Zhao Ji clicked his tongue and smiled, and said meaningfully

"Your Majesty wants to keep track of my whereabouts at all times. I never know when Madam is so concerned about me. Could it be that she just got used to it?"

……

Huai Yu's breathing was stagnant, almost choked, and naturally he couldn't continue to ask about his whereabouts. Speaking of which, his behavior was already very disrespectful, but there were no concubines in the harem, and Zhao Ji played with him since he was a child. I often feel that I am still a good friend, but I don't treat him as the mother of a country.

But who will marry a good friend, and who will let the person who is pregnant with his own cub still be named by the name of a good friend?It is also too high-sounding.

Huaiyu had nothing to say, so he felt a little bored, and then he lay down on the table and watched Zhao Ji correct the memorial to the mountain, and couldn't help but say

"It seems very boring to only correct the memorials every day. Don't you have other things to do when you are the emperor?"

Zhao Ji was stained with ink, couldn't help laughing dumbfoundedly, and said along the way

"That's true. Being an emperor is actually the most boring thing, and it doesn't mean anything."

Then he remembered what he had asked Huaiyu to practice calligraphy before, and asked him how his calligraphy practice was going?

Huai Yu raised his forehead and said in a rather cryptic tone

"My handwriting is actually pretty good."

Zhao Ji felt helpless

"Is that what I mean?"

Huaiyu stopped talking, just lay quietly on her stomach, her eyes narrowed, as if she was asleep and couldn't hear anything.

Zhao Ji knew that he definitely didn't do it, so he didn't bother to talk about him, and let him lie on the table and watch. Speaking of these memorials, they were considered state secrets, and he even let Huaiyu spy on them. Very big hearted.

However, sitting face to face like this, I didn't seem to feel bored. The rain was beating outside the window, and there was a special charm.

If no one came to bother me, maybe I would sit quietly like this until the dusk fell.

When Huaiyu was really about to fall asleep, the eunuch came in to announce that a certain lord had something to play, Huaiyu woke up in a daze, every time he heard the title clearly, he heard something to play, so he used only the remaining With a sober nerve, he raised his head and looked at Zhao Ji, and said weakly

"Am I going to avoid it?"

According to the rules, concubines in the harem are not allowed to share a room with courtiers.

However, after reading so many memorials related to major national affairs, he didn't think of avoiding them. Now that he thinks about it, Zhao Ji is very puzzled. One forgets one, scattered and scattered, which is a headache.

Zhao Ji rubbed the center of his brows, then waved his hand with a headache, telling him to go straight behind the screen and wait.

Huaiyu stood up staggeringly, and walked behind the screen. There was a bed for resting behind the screen. Huaiyu took a look and thought that it would not be good to sleep like this, so she went to lean on the low bed by the window, Hearing the door knock again, someone came in, knelt down and saluted, saying

"For disturbing the Holy One, please forgive me."

Zhao Ji glanced at him, said no, and got up to talk.

The man stood up, didn't say too much flattery, went straight to the point, and said

"Your Majesty, I already have an idea. This is the person who is confirmed to be involved. However, if it is not to affect the literary examination, it must be dealt with in advance. However, I am afraid that it will disturb the Queen Mother, and I am afraid that it will always scare the snake."

Zhao Ji was silent for a while, turned his eyes, Huai Yu was still behind, this matter is not suitable for him to hear, but after a while, Zhao Ji continued

"I already know that I will deal with the Queen Mother, and I will arrange the rest of the matter."

The official resigned and left. Huaiyu always felt that this person's voice was very familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was when the words came to his lips.

However, this is not the point, the point is the literary test?Could it be that something happened?Huaiyu couldn't help feeling worried. He immediately remembered that Wenjing was going to take the Chinese language test this year, and he was bound to win the top prize. If something happened, he wondered if it would affect him.

Huai Yu was in a daze, and he didn't even know when Zhao Ji walked in. When he realized, Zhao Ji had already stood in front of him for an unknown amount of time, and there was that look in Huai Yu's eyes that Huai Yu couldn't understand and felt uneasy. .

Huaiyu was startled for a moment, recovered and exhaled again, angrily said:

"Why is there no sound when walking? It's scary."

Zhao Ji looked around, then said:

"Is there anyone else here? Besides me, who will come, and how can it scare you? Am I scary?"

Huai Yu looked up at him, and said sincerely

"How could it be? The Holy Majesty behaves elegantly, and the jade tree is facing the wind. It is really unparalleled in the world, unique in the world."

This flattery was really too perfunctory and blunt.

☆, don't know what to say

Zhao Ji squinted at Huai Yu, of course he would not be confused by his words, and knew how to strike first, before Huai Yu spoke, he raised his eyebrows and said

"I remember, to ground you, not to leave Yunhe?"

Huai Yu froze for a moment, his expression gradually became stiff, and then he opened his eyes slightly, trying to make a begging expression, but Zhao Ji turned a blind eye, and continued:

"Let's start today. After you go back, you are not allowed to leave Yunhe Palace for a month."

Huaiyu: ...

Huaiyu regretted it very much, he didn't know why he came to see him, well, if he didn't look, it might not be possible, and he wouldn't remember such an annoying thing.

but--

snort!If you don't come out, don't come out, who is afraid of whom!

Huaiyu seemed to be in the mood of turning things against one another. After being talked about a lot, she stood up all of a sudden and then resigned. She has a lot of backbone.

Zhao Ji didn't care much about whether Huaiyu would really stay in the palace honestly, as long as he didn't go out, the most important thing was not to communicate with Zhang Wenjing about the literary examination.

However, in terms of communication, it is not a big deal.

Zhao Ji thought in his heart that although he didn't like this genius very much, he didn't plan to do anything to him because he could still make some contributions to Daxi.

But the person he has to deal with has nothing to do with Zhang Wenjing, so it has nothing to do with him.

After Huaiyu went back, she really kept this incident in her heart, and when her mother came on the appointed day, after exchanging greetings as usual, she talked about Zhang Wenjing, who rented a yard by himself, and occasionally went back to the general's mansion to visit the elders Huaiyu wanted to ask his mother to bring a message to Zhang Wenjing, but he heard the conversation between Zhao Ji and the official in a cloud, and he didn't know what it was. So I don't know what to say, I can only say something for Zhang Wenjing to refer to with the best attitude, and that's all.

The mother was very relieved and said that she had grown up and knew how to care for others.

Huaiyu pretended to be stupid and laughed a few times, then casually brought up other topics, and then evaded it perfunctorily.

Before the literary examination, the lecture conference specially prepared for Kaminye had already started on the scheduled day.

No one expected that Zhao Ji would go to support him, and they all wondered if the emperor paid too much attention to this monk. In any case, it would be too grand to support him personally.

But the king of a country has gone, and the officials must follow no matter what they think in their hearts. Originally, Zhao Ji wanted to go with Huaiyu, but Huaiyu didn't know what Zhao Ji was thinking, so he came to him Dragging his increasingly heavy body, he didn't want to run around at all, and said that his feet were not grounded, how could he get out of Yunhe Palace.

So he became a left-behind person, pruning flower branches in the palace, looking at the brilliant peach blossoms, Huaiyu suddenly remembered something, he turned around and asked Chaoyun

"Is there any incense on the holy?"

When he went to the imperial study, he didn't seem to smell any incense.

Although Chaoyun has been used by Huaiyu, he also runs to Zhao Ji every day, so he knows that folding leaves is not a big deal, so he immediately replied

"Never, the Holy One said that the fragrance of incense is strong, so I don't like to use it."

Huaiyu let out a groan, and didn't say anything more. After a while, he said, "Pick these peach blossoms, pick a pot, and make incense."

He also said that Shang Sheng didn't sleep in the middle of the night, probably because he didn't sleep well, and he was going to do something to promote sleep.

After he said this, Chao Yun was startled, thinking that he had discovered something, and when he later told Zhao Ji this conjecture, Zhao Ji just smiled and said just let him go, it’s nothing, it’s okay to know, I don’t know Anyway, it doesn't matter anyway.

However, what Huaiyu said was just boring. If he didn't find something to do on his own, and stayed in this small courtyard all day, he would go crazy sooner or later.

Then he suddenly thought of the lotus flower that Kamingye had transformed with blood.

I don't know what kind of cover-up was used, and I don't know what will be performed today to confuse everyone. I didn't hold back and let Chaoyun go out of the palace to watch.

Although he was grounded, the queen's sign still allowed Chaoyun to enter and exit the palace without hindrance.

Chaoyun led the order to go out, Huaiyu sat in the yard basking in the sun, Xiaoyu chased his tail to play in the yard, the peacock flew to the eaves at dawn, and refused to come down all day, according to Huaiyu's lying From the angle of the reclining chair, I just watched the peacock king walking back and forth on the eaves, and the narrow eaves did not fall off.

Huaiyu squinted her eyes, and when she was in a trance, the sun came down directly and changed its color again. Slowly, a large halo of light enveloped the peacock. With the flickering light, the peacock seemed to be standing alone. On the roof, he turned his head and looked at Huai Yu again.

Huai Yu was startled, woke up suddenly, rubbed his eyes, and looked again, but it was still the peacock standing on the roof, combing its feathers as if nothing had happened, and the long tail feathers fell from the eaves, shining brightly.

Huai Yu stared at it carefully, but found nothing. She called the maid to ask if she saw anything unusual, and the maid shook her head, saying that she didn't see anything.

During the questioning, the peacock turned its head to look at Huaiyu, and when they met Huaiyu's gaze, for a moment Huaiyu thought that the peacock seemed to know what he was talking about, and shivered when his back got cold , such a warm weather, actually feel chilly.

Huaiyu stood up and walked into the house. As she walked, she always felt as if someone was staring at her from behind. Then she couldn't help but think of the night when Jia Mingye came, as if she had sex with Zhao Ji. What kind of agreement, and then left this peacock in Yunhe Palace, except for being chased by Xiaoyu and mistakenly entering Linxian Palace, this peacock actually stayed in Yunhe Palace, as if being grounded the same as myself.

Like the grounded self?

Huai Yu stopped suddenly, his whole body was like a blow to the head, his head was blinded, he turned back suddenly, just in time to see the peacock flying down from the high wall, its wings were all spread, against the sunlight, the whole body seemed to be flying. Like sparkling.

It is indeed very different from the feeling of ordinary peacocks, with a little bit, which makes people feel a sense of respect involuntarily.

Is the Great Ming Peacock King really a divine bird?

Is the one who owns the Kamin leaf of the Great Ming Peacock King really a magic stick, or does he really have some incredible ability.

What kind of deal did he and Zhao Ji make, and would it have anything to do with today's conference?

☆, Immortal Accountability

Huaiyu only felt that his mind was in chaos, and he came up with an idea that he wanted to see what kind of puja was going on, so he hurried out, but before he reached the door, Dayu was already standing in front of him, showing no emotion at all. said

"Please come back, Your Majesty."

Huai Yu was unmoved

"Step aside."

Dayu straightly knelt down on one knee, although he was embarrassed, he still said firmly

"Please forgive me, my lord. You have been grounded, the Holy One, and you are not allowed to leave Yunhe Palace for the rest of this month."

Huai Yu didn't get angry, and immediately said with great momentum

"He gave you to me, shouldn't you listen to me? Why do you want to ground me for him?"

Dayu raised his head and glanced at him, but his eyes were entangled. He just glanced at him, then lowered his head again, unmoved at all.

"It's not for the emperor's confinement. It's just that the emperor ordered that if you leave the Yunhe Palace, the people waiting outside will knock you out with a palm. You will be knocked out every time you go out. There will be no mercy."

"You he--!!!"

Huai Yu's eyes widened with anger, and he couldn't believe that he said such a thing, and he couldn't believe that Zhao Ji would treat him like this. No matter what he said, it was too unreasonable, and he ruthlessly knocked the queen unconscious, what a majestic king of a country can do thing?

Huaiyu suddenly felt rebellious, and wanted to go out to see if someone would really knock her out.

Thinking like this, he walked out, and after taking a step, he immediately felt a black shadow drifting past his eyes.

……

Huaiyu was startled, and then retracted her feet. The sky was clear and there was no shadow in front of her.

Huaiyu stood at the door watching for a while, then went back as if nothing had happened.

Well, he believed that Zhao Ji was absolutely capable of doing such an unreasonable thing.

Huaiyu went back to the palace very depressed, and then searched for the Gu-making books that she secretly brought from home—although her mother had washed her hands and stopped making Gu many years ago, she didn’t really burn them all. Yu remembers that there are still some fun things - although this is fun, in the eyes of the world, it is more scary.

It is well known that Zhao Ji personally went to support Jia Mingye, and Linxian Palace is no exception. The people who sent to investigate came back and said that Jia Mingye rained the world and then turned sunny again, which almost made everyone in the entire capital. People are confused, and when they talk about the Buddhas of the Western Paradise, the Tao means that if they believe in Buddhism, they will go to the Western Paradise after death. I don't know how many people there are.

The queen mother frowned deeply, and after a long time, said

"It's bullshit!"

Probably a little angry, so I asked someone to wait at the palace gate. Zhao Ji was invited to Linxian Palace just after entering the palace gate, saying that the queen mother was not feeling well and missed the Holy Majesty. In fact, these two sentences have nothing to do with each other. But there is no need to raise any doubts. This was already in Zhao Ji's expectation. He just responded, and then he followed. The Linxian Palace is quiet and silent. Walking in it, no matter who it is, it will change involuntarily. Depressed.

Maybe it's a flower and a grass, it's all too regular.

Zhao Ji knelt and sat in the hall. It was dusk at this time, and a little sunset shone in, covering a layer of orange brilliance. The queen mother sat opposite him and made tea for him. Every movement was slow and meticulous. Zhao Ji He was a little impatient, but he had to be patient. He had many words to hurt the Empress Dowager's heart, but if the Empress Dowager didn't speak, he had nothing to say.

Sandalwood, which is commonly used in temples, floated into his nose. Zhao Ji watched the queen mother pour tea into each other's quilts, and spoke

"Is the mother still paying respects to the Buddha? I should invite you to see Kaminyeah's teachings today. My son was negligent."

The queen mother answered the words calmly

"I don't care about things, so reading scriptures in my spare time is just to pass the time. The emperor mobilized people to go to Ran Temple, which surprised me—"

The Empress Dowager raised her eyes with sharp eyes

"Is the emperor planning to support Buddhism?"

"It's just a novelty."

Zhao Ji said, sighed again, showing nostalgic eyes

"Thinking about my father's untimely death, if I see Kaminye, maybe I can prolong my life, and even today, I don't have to just miss it out of thin air."

The Empress Dowager's face was condensed, she took a few breaths, and then she didn't get angry, but her face was obviously not that good-looking, so she spoke very harshly

"This is absurd words, can you believe it? Life and death are limited, everyone has it, the emperor is young, why worry, even letting an overseas monk become famous, is it worthy of your father?"

These words were very harsh, all the courtiers in the palace knelt down in unison, and the palacemen outside the palace did not dare to make a sound, only the wind was blowing fearlessly, and the branches and leaves of the trees made sounds, everything was quiet in this place In the evening, it is very clear and audible.

Zhao Ji didn't speak for a long time, as if awakened by a single word, he lowered his head and remained silent, only looking at the tea in the teacup and the tea leaves floating on it.

After a long time, Zhao Ji opened his mouth to speak. He bowed his head deeply to the Queen Mother, and said

"It's the son's recklessness, please ask the queen to punish him."

"What am I going to punish you for? You are the king of a country now, what should you do, what should you not say, do you want me to remind you? Then why bother—!"

The Empress Dowager sighed, and rubbed the center of her brows again, feeling that she really couldn't put her mind at ease, and also thought that Zhao Ji was not a rash and reckless person, how could he be bewitched like this, what kind of Kaminyeah—staying in this world is really scary .

Zhao Jifu sat up straight on the table again, raised his eyes to look at the queen mother, and said slowly

"If the son doesn't act like this again, please let the queen calm down for now."

The queen mother waved her hand and said

"Forget it, I'm afraid you haven't rested all day, go back."

Because he didn't want to talk about such a topic anymore, Zhao Ji got the order and stood up to leave. When he turned to leave, he looked at the light and shadow outside the window, bright and dark, floating erratically.

He didn't hold back, and he still said a word.

"Mother, have you ever believed in Buddha?"

"Never."

The queen mother answered very cleanly, without any entanglement.

Since I have never believed in it, why do I recite Buddhist scriptures and copy scriptures every day, and even the incense is also the breath of Buddha.

Zhao Ji left Linxian Palace, the girl behind the screen came out, knelt and sat beside the Queen Mother, massaged his acupoints, and said softly

"Why are you doing this? Your Majesty came to power when he first came to power. He just wanted to do something new and different to gain his prestige. You are trying to dissuade me. I don't know how much your Majesty can listen to you, but you will alienate each other."

What is the relationship between them?

The Empress Dowager closed her eyes, rolling the beads one by one in her hand, until the end of the scroll, the Empress Dowager said

"That's not something you should talk about."

The girl stopped talking, but still massaged the queen mother's acupoints very skillfully.

☆, Rotten grass becomes fireflies

When the sky was already dark and all the palace lanterns were lit, Zhao Ji returned to the Yunhe Palace, entered the courtyard, and saw Huaiyu sitting on the porch, with a thick cushion under his body, and a soft blanket on the cushion , he was sitting there, still wearing a half-worn robe that he only wore in winter, fiddling with a round glazed lamp in his hand, but there was no light in it, a court lady bent over to support him with a lantern, and the lamp was shining With a vague light, floating up and down, like a large group of glowing fluff.

Huaiyu looked at the glazed jar quietly, very intently, as if looking at some rare treasure.

Zhao Ji walked in front of him, the shadow shrouded in front of Huai Yu, and he realized that there was a person standing in front of him. He raised his head and saw that it was Zhao Ji, so he didn't want to talk to him, didn't want to get up to greet him, and didn't even want to look at him. He glanced at him, but after all, there are so many people watching, he can't just leave it alone, Huaiyu moved his lips, and said coolly

"Come back so late? What kind of scriptures did Kaminye speak so well?"

Zhao Ji already knew about the fact that he was going to go out during the day but was scared back. At this moment, Yue Mo remembered hating himself, rolled his eyes, and coughed lightly

"It's not because of me that I let you go, but you don't go by yourself."

Seeing that they were going to talk outside, the palace lady prepared to move out a stool for Zhao Ji to sit on. Zhao Ji waved his hand and sat next to Huai Yu on the porch, watching him play with the things in his hand, saying

"what are you doing?"

"It's crowded."

Huaiyu moved to the side, although he didn't separate much, but a little talk is better than nothing, although Huaiyu was very dissatisfied with Zhao Ji's vicious behavior of sending people to guard the door, ready to knock him unconscious at all times, but he remained silent All afternoon, he couldn't find someone to talk to. Chaoyun was sent out by him to investigate the audiovisual. Dayu was like a boring gourd. If he talked to other palace people, he was not suitable for his status.

Huaiyu waited until now, when someone finally spoke to him, he still couldn't hold back, and opened the cover of the glazed lamp for Zhao Ji to see, and said

"look."

Zhao Ji looked inside, and all he saw was pitch-black. After careful inspection, he could distinguish the strands of grass stalks inside.

Zhao Ji said rather disgustedly

"what?"

"Rotten grass."

Huaiyu took the jar back and explained to him enthusiastically

"Have you ever heard that rotten grass turns into fireflies, and when Ji Xia arrives, fireflies will be born here."

Such a story can also be believed.

Zhao Ji felt that Huai Yu still had such a character that he believed in everything too much, which was good and bad, so he leaned against the railing next to him, looked at Huai Yu and said

"If you coax children like this, you also believe it. If you want any fireflies, just find someone to catch a few."

Huai Yu raised her head to look at Zhao Ji upon hearing this, but there was a bit of contempt in her eyes—maybe it should not be said to be contempt, but a little unconvinced

"You believe in immortality, so can't I believe that rotten grass turns into fireflies? If rotten grass turns into fireflies are all lies, then what is immortality?"

Under the dark sky, the maid's lantern was close in front of her eyes, and the light reflected in Huai Yu's eyes, which seemed much brighter than usual.

It turned out that he was waiting for himself here.

Zhao Ji laughed, and said how he sat outside obediently, thinking he was waiting for him—but it didn't matter if he said he was waiting for him.

Zhao Ji looked at him and said inquiringly

"Who taught you to say that?"

He felt that with Huaiyu's heart, he should not use such an analogy to persuade others.

Huai Yu snorted coldly and said proudly

"I want to say this myself, what's the matter, why do you ask this?"

……

Why?Still have to ask yourself why?

Zhao Ji changed his posture, and the palace lady took the opportunity to tie a mat to the railing for him, so as not to be hurt by the cold and hard railing. Zhao Ji was distracted, and looked up at the palace lady, who looked cute and smart, so he said casually

"What's your name? You're so smart. Huaiyu might stumble when he moves in the future. Just cover the railings of the entire palace with cushions."

The court lady didn't dare to move at once, she thought the Holy Majesty praised her when she heard the first half of the sentence, but the second half made her heart sink, she didn't know what was wrong with her, so naturally she didn't dare to speak.

Huai Yu looked at the maid, then at the mat, and finally at Zhao Ji, quite speechless

"How can you be so squeamish? Why are you crazy, scaring the little girl? Could it be that you have encountered something that made you unhappy, but you came to me to toss and calm down?"

"How can I be unhappy."

Zhao Ji lowered his eyes, his heart sank, but he showed it very casually and relaxed, teasing Huai Yu

"Don't put it in the palace. I'm afraid there will be insects or strange smells. People will see insects and ants crawling, or smell strange smells. They will be suspicious. It will be treated as the Queen's Palace. It is a place that no one cleans."

I still can't tell if you are happy or not, Huaiyu said in his heart, it's not for nothing that we have been together for so many years.

But he is a good person, and he never does anything to make trouble in front of others, so he only retorts in his heart, and what he says in his mouth still follows Zhao Ji's words.

"How come, I don't even touch the five poisons now, but I still need to borrow one thing, and the Holy One must ask for it for me."

Zhao Ji raised his eyebrows, not knowing what he was going to do

"You are the queen now, what else do you need me to ask for for you, who do you ask for?"

Huai Yu sat upright, looking at Zhao Ji very seriously, which made Zhao Ji a little more serious, thinking that he was going to do something earth-shattering, but only heard Huai Yu say seriously

"I want the Mermaid Eternal Candle in the Palace of Evergreen."

"..."

Zhao Ji looked at Huai Yu with an indescribable expression, and said

"that's it?"

Huai Yu nodded.

Zhao Ji couldn't hold it back, laughed out loud, then stood up holding on to the railing, looked down at Huai Yu, and said

"I've already said that you are the queen now, send someone to ask for it yourself, and don't ask me."

Huaiyu watched him stand up, and after hearing what he said so easily, he probably realized that he might have misunderstood, but he still asked

"It's not a very precious thing. If I want a lot, can I do it?"

"You can do whatever you want."

Zhao Ji walked into the hall, leaving only one sentence in the wind

"It's not really Changming, what's so precious."

Leaving Huaiyu alone in the wind, she couldn't figure out what Zhao Ji was thinking.

Huaiyu stopped in the wind for a while, then stood up too, followed into the hall, and asked again:

"Why didn't Chaoyun come back with you?"

☆, lazy daily life

"Chaoyun? Let her do other things."

Zhao Ji went into the hall without looking back, took off his coat, and wanted to drink tea again, but the entrance was sour, so he frowned, looked back at Huai Yu, and asked

"What is this? The tea is broken?"

"Sour plum soup, can't you drink it?"

Seeing his rather embarrassed appearance, Huai Yu spoke uprightly.

Zhao Ji clicked his tongue and said with disgust

"Drink some sour plum soup properly, and what to do in the cup, just look for a bowl to drink seriously."

Huai Yu snorted lightly, reminding him that

"This is my cup, if you don't like it, just ask someone to find another tea set for you, so as not to cause confusion, but it's my fault, and I haven't complained to you yet - since Chaoyun gave it to me Man, why are you invoking it again, since that's the case, it's better to let Xiaozhu follow into the palace at the beginning."

The more Huaiyu talked, the more annoyed she felt. Originally, Xiaozhu was supposed to follow, but those aunts said that it was against the rules, and said that there were people in the palace to take care of them, but they refused to let Xiaozhu follow him into the palace, so Zhao Ji called Chaoyun. He used it, and said that in fact, he was much more free outside the palace than inside the palace, why he had to bring it into the palace, and he gave up because of his father's words.

If I had known this earlier, I might as well have persisted, maybe I would have been able to follow in.

Zhao Ji felt it was incredible. He walked up to Huaiyu, looked him up and down, and saw his black and white eyes staring at him, with the intention of complaining, so he stretched out his hand a little bit. Jin, tapped his forehead as a punishment

"Is this the way you talk to me?"

Then he turned around very coolly, and went to the inner hall to rest first.

Obviously, he really didn't feel that what he did was too much. No one belongs to anyone in the world, and they should all be used by him.

Huaiyu: ...

Huai Yu leaned back a little bit unsteady, and after standing still, rubbed the center of her brows again, still feeling a little pain, and made a grimace at Zhao Ji's back.

The emperor is amazing.

……

Well, it's pretty amazing.

Huaiyu stood for a while, and suddenly felt a twitch in her stomach, as if someone was hitting her with very little force.

Huai Yu patted his stomach and whispered

"Is this the attitude of talking to Bengong?"

Although the voice was very low, the momentum was sufficient, but it was fine if no one answered, his abdomen twitched a few times, and then he stopped moving.

However, looking back, those mermaid fats are actually quite precious. Although the mermaid longevity candles made from them are not eternal, mermaids are real mermaids. It doesn’t matter if those candles with thick forearms burn for a few years. When the man took out the things in stock, he had a grim expression on his face, but Zhao Yun pretended not to see it, took the things and went back.

She went back very late that night. She was worried that the queen would ask something, but Huaiyu just asked her why she went back so late, and said that she had to go back halfway to help the imperial study, so she came back late. Huai Yu didn't ask any more questions, but said that he really didn't know who it was, so he didn't ask any more questions.

On this day, Chaoyun took the mermaid fat and went back, and Dayu also caught the bugs and came back as ordered. Huaiyu tied up his sleeves and carefully mixed the mermaid fat with some of the medicines he had prepared, and then put them all in a jar, sealed. Strictly sealed, and sealed with glue, put it outside to bask in the sun, exposed to the sun and wind, and I would look at it from time to time in the first two or three days, but I stopped looking at it in the next few days, just opened the glue and put it on the window sill to dry .

Huaiyu also became more and more lazy, or in other words, her body was getting heavier and heavier, so the imperial doctor calculated the time of the child's birth, which was about enough time to write a poem, so she turned over a poem and wrote only one stroke a day , using this to calculate the date of childbirth, before he finished writing a word, Zhao Ji knew that he was timing it like this, so he laughed at him for a while, and when he was free, he drew a peach tree for Huaiyu and asked him to draw the petals Going to it, it’s better to write it in one go, if you only write one stroke a day, it doesn’t look very good when you put it together, it’s just a waste of paper and pen.

Huai Yu felt that this person was indeed very flawed, but he was duplicity. He painted a petal every day, and it was just a way to pass the time. Anyway, the peach tree painting was very suitable for him, and he drew one or two strokes every day. It's nothing.

When the peach blossoms on the tree were painted for a third, the peach blossoms in the yard had all fallen off. Huaiyu felt her palms were sweating, and only then did she realize that summer was coming.

There were cicadas chirping in the treetops, the sun was bright outside, and it was dazzlingly white. The servants at the gate of Yunhe Palace stood on stools to change the bamboo curtains. Huaiyu looked at it for a while, and suddenly asked

"Isn't today the day to host a banquet for the top ten in the Wen Kao?"

In the tradition of Daxi, the top ten emperors in the literary examination will hold a banquet in the imperial garden to celebrate, and ask the candidates to adapt to the situation to rank the top ten, so it is also counted as the imperial examination.

Chaoyun nodded, saying that it was true.

Huaiyu became very interested, he got a letter from his mother a few days ago, and Wen Jing really passed the exam. It is said that the reviewers praised the exam papers very much, and even asked the Holy Master to read the exam papers, although Zhao Ji never said this in front of Huai Yu However, there was no need to talk to him.

Huaiyu was about to go out to have a look. Chaoyun looked at the overheated sunlight outside, and then looked back at the overheated sunlight. It was already very obvious, and because of this, some people with limited mobility hesitated and said

"It's not good to go out on such a hot day, and I'm afraid it's an exam right now."

Huaiyu followed and took a look at the sunlight outside, and he didn't care about it, and he didn't feel very hot—this was far from the scorching heat of the dog days.

Hence the sworn assurance that

"I'll be quiet and don't disturb them."

Chaoyun couldn't stop it, and the Holy Majesty didn't say he couldn't let the Queen go to watch, so he went out and asked someone to inform him, and then chased him out, and then he left the palace. Huaiyu planned to walk there, but Chaoyun said Nothing is allowed, it is not too close from Yunhe Palace to the place where the banquet will be held. If the queen is not pregnant, everything is easy to say, but now she is considered to be pregnant, how can she walk such a long way, so to speak, Huaiyu Feeling her ears hurt, she went with her.

Although there are curtains to block the sun along the way, you can still feel the heat. Huaiyu looked down at Chaoyun who was walking next to him. He didn't sweat a drop, nor did he show any signs of fatigue, so he asked curiously.

"are not you tired?"

This is a superfluous question. Chaoyun has done a lot of things for Zhao Ji, and the road he has traveled has long been incountable, but he can't say such a thing, so Chaoyun shook his head, just saying thank you for your concern , still hold up.

In fact, Huai Yu felt that the question he asked was a bit stupid after asking. How could the people who followed Zhao Ji feel tired so easily.

☆、Emperor Feast

Huaiyu always felt that he was getting dull day by day, or blurted out some words, which made people quite speechless, and he didn't know how to answer, so he said to himself in his heart, it's better to talk less.

When they arrived at the imperial garden, the guards guarding the gate saluted Huaiyu, Huaiyu stepped down, Zhaoyun wanted to take out the umbrella he had prepared earlier to give him the sunlight, Huaiyu avoided it, There is no need to be so pretentious for a few steps, it seems extremely delicate.

After resigning, Huaiyu walked straight inside, but the more he walked, he felt very strange. Usually, his father said that the emperor entertained the new students, which was the most lively and interesting, because these children were very smart and smart when they first entered the officialdom. They are smooth and smooth that have not been polished, so it is inevitable that they still show their true nature. Besides, they are all talented people, and they are also witty when they speak. Not only are the students looking forward to the palace examination to win the favor of the Holy One, but they, veteran officials, are also happy to be at such a banquet Take a moment to relax.

But for some reason, he only felt a burst of tension and depression, and he didn't hear any laughter. Could it be what his father said before, to coax him to play?

Huai Yu walked along the road intertwined with flowers and trees, and arrived at the banquet place. Through the shadowy branches, at first sight, he saw Zhao Ji sitting on the main seat with a very serious expression, as if he was in a bad mood , on the table in front of him, besides the food, there was actually a stick of incense burning; when he came again, he saw all the officials bowed their heads together, not daring to speak, and finally saw ten tables in the middle of the open space. The mirror is at the front, I don’t know what I’m writing at the desk, and the three rows behind are all strange young people.

Could it be that in the palace examination, Zhao Ji talked about a topic, and all the talented scholars expressed their opinions, and did they still have to write it down with a pen, but they misunderstood it again?

When Huai Yu entered, the people at the banquet looked up at him, then lowered their heads again, and even forgot to salute him.

However, Huaiyu didn't care about these things. While looking at Zhang Wenjing who was writing at his desk, he thought that he had become more handsome after a few months. None of the top ten talents in this bunch were as good-looking as him.

While walking towards Zhao Ji, someone had already moved the stool. Zhao Ji looked at him and frowned.
