The emperor's heart alone

Xu Yunjin has been busy for more than half a month, and when he is completely free, it has already entered December. Now Xu Yunjin is only waiting for the end of the year to give red envelopes to shopkeepers and others in various shops, and then have a meal. Come to a successful conclusion.

Ever since Shi Junji went back to the palace to deal with the severe drought in the northwest, he has only met with Xu Yunjin two or three times so far. Shi Junji couldn't help feeling that there were too many obstacles between the two of them, and he couldn't help thinking about it.And entering December, not only the affairs of the northwest, but also the affairs of the front court and the harem were presented to Shi Junji one by one, waiting for Shi Junji to deal with them, even though Shi Junji had already distributed most of the things Hand it over to the Diange Grand Scholars, but they are still too busy.This means that the meeting between Shi Junji and Xu Yunjin is far away.

Not only Shi Junji, but the entire court has already started to get busy, summing up the results of a year's work, and memorials from various places have also gathered in the capital from all directions.

As a Diange University scholar, Xu Tao was naturally very busy, and he didn't even return to the mansion for many nights. The people in the mansion didn't care. Since Xu Tao became a Diange University scholar, he was too busy to go back to the mansion every December.

Xu Yunting, as a popular person in front of the current emperor and an official in the Imperial Academy, naturally cannot be idle at this time. Many trivial matters are piled up in front of Xu Yunting's case, and he is busy in the dark. Even so, the Imperial Academy There was still not enough manpower. Fortunately, Shao Peilan had just revealed her pregnancy, and she was not at the point where she couldn't leave her, so Xu Yunting didn't ask for leave.

The Xu Jia family will also start arranging the New Year's affairs of Xu's residence, which cannot be sloppy. In previous years, Shao Peilan could help, and Xu Yunqin was on the side to assist, but now they have lost two helpers. Naturally, Shao Peilan should feel at ease when she is pregnant. Xu Yunqin stayed by Shao Peilan's side every day to raise the baby, Xu Jiashi was burdened with all the big and small matters of the Xu family, and in the end Xu Yunjin couldn't see it, so he asked someone from Wang's second hand to help Xu Jia Shi takes care of the affairs of Xu's mansion.

Xu Yunqin has been silent for a while since the incident with Xiang Yi. He arranged Xu Yunqin to be beside Shao Peilan in order to let Shao Peilan untie Xu Yunqin.This method is not bad, at least there is a smile on Xu Yunqin's face every day now, presumably Shao Peilan's words have affected her on weekdays, Xu Yunjin is finally relieved, after all, Xiang Yi was for Xu Yun at the beginning Qin chose it. Although such a thing happened not on purpose, it was still to be blamed.

As the new year was approaching, the Queen's condition did not improve at all, on the contrary, it became more and more serious, making people in the harem worry all day long, fearing that the Queen would die in the New Year, which is not auspicious.

Of course, the people in the harem are also very happy. Now that the queen is seriously ill in bed, and something has happened to the Chu family, even if the queen's life recovers, it will be difficult not to be demoted because of the Chu family. Having entered the empress's Yang Palace, no one in the harem knows about it. Although the food and clothing of the Zhiyang Palace are still the empress's share, who knows that the empress has completely fallen out of favor?

One afternoon, Shi Junji had just woken up from a nap and put on his clothes when he learned that the Empress Dowager had arrived at Changping Palace.

Frowning without leaving any trace, Shi Junji went to the outer room to meet the queen mother.After saluting, the two sat down one by one.Seeing the worried look on the Empress Dowager's face, Shi Junji vaguely knew the Empress Dowager's purpose in his heart, so he didn't speak, just waiting for the Empress Dowager to speak first.

As expected, the Empress Dowager couldn't hold her breath, and pretended to cough twice: "Now that the New Year's Eve is approaching, the Ai family sees that the palace is very busy, decorated with lanterns and festoons, and is very happy."

"What the queen mother said is true." Shi Junji said in a deep voice, "These are all thanks to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Since even the queen mother has praised them, I will reward them."

The queen mother smiled awkwardly, and stopped talking to Shi Junji in vain, and said directly: "It's been a while, the queen's child's illness has not been good, the emperor, look, why don't you send an imperial doctor?" Go and see?"

Of course the empress is qualified to have the imperial doctor see a doctor. Of course the imperial doctor mentioned by the empress dowager is not an ordinary imperial doctor, but an imperial doctor who specializes in treating the emperor. In terms of medical skills, only the imperial doctor who treats the emperor is the best. Ming.

Shi Junji stared blankly at the queen mother for a long time, staring at the queen mother until she retreated a little, Shi Junji said slowly: "Although she is a queen, she is also a member of the Chu family, and now she is the one who has committed crimes." As a queen who is the mother of the world, she can't even restrain her own mother's family, she has already lost her virtue, such a person, I will not do anything for her."

The Empress Dowager had expected that Shi Jun would not save the Empress so easily, she sighed slightly in her heart, and felt like a rabbit was being cooked by a fox. I understand that Shi Junji's words are just an excuse, and I am afraid that I have already thought of doing something against the Chu family in my heart: "In any case, the queen and the emperor are still young couples, and they have supported you all the way for so many years until now, and you have added the eldest son to the emperor. With my daughter-in-law, there is hard work even if there is no credit, even...even if the emperor refuses to spare the time to treat the empress, he should go to see the empress."

Shi Junji sneered: "The queen mother's words are serious. What do you mean I refuse to treat the queen? Since the queen is sick, most of the imperial physicians in the imperial hospital have been there."

The empress dowager's eyes were fixed, she drooped her eyes and said nothing, she didn't know when it started, the seemingly gentle emperor gradually showed her edges and corners, and she no longer concealed herself in front of herself, the most honorable woman of the Daping Dynasty, this is the real emperor, Not afraid of anyone, including himself.

"If the mother is fine, please go back, I still have a lot of things to deal with."

The Empress Dowager stood up helplessly, hesitated for a while, and then asked: "Ai's family went to see the Empress the day before yesterday, and the Empress was tortured by the illness and she was already in a bad shape. All she wanted was to see you again, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, you..."

"The queen mother doesn't need to talk anymore." Shi Junji interrupted the queen mother, "I have made up my mind."

The Empress Dowager finally sighed and left Changping Palace.

There was silence in the room, and after a long while, a sneer came.Young couples, aren't they young couples?Shi Junji closed his eyes and leaned on the back of the chair. When he got married, why didn't he expect the love of each other?He still remembers the thrill when he lifted the red hijab and saw the shy queen, but things are impermanent.

I remember that he was still not enthroned, but when he was only the crown prince, the crown princess, the later queen, was pregnant with another side concubine almost at the same time, because the crown princess was pregnant before the side concubine, and it was the first time for him to be a father, so he didn't deal with it. The child who fell into the belly of the concubine, even if the concubine gave birth to a daughter, and the concubine gave birth to a son, just deal with it secretly.

However, the crown princess is uneasy. She is afraid that her baby will be a daughter, and that Shi Junji will leave the son born to the side concubine and cause a miscarriage when the side concubine is not pregnant. The child in the house was killed together. Who would have thought that the side concubine would die in a miscarriage, but the child survived.

He is a son, and even the eldest son in name of Shi Junji. Even if he is a bastard, Shi Junji no longer remembers the name and appearance of that side concubine, but he still remembers being strangled to death when he was stolen and presented to him. A child with a blue face.

That was his real first child, and it was also when he really realized what a horrible woman the Crown Princess was.After that, the gap between him and the princess could never disappear.Later, the crown princess gave birth to a son, who is now the eldest son of the emperor.

If the queen didn't want to harm the side concubine at the beginning, the side concubine would not have given birth to the eldest son prematurely, but would have given birth to the second son after the queen gave birth to the eldest son of the imperial concubine.If the queen hadn't dealt with the eldest son so quickly, she would have dealt with it herself. After all, he knew what the eldest son meant, but it was a pity that the queen couldn't even wait for this time.People are so strange, obviously someone has to do this thing, but when someone else does it, I feel uncomfortable or even resentful.

Shi Junji was a little tired, looking at the memorial on the table, he didn't want to move*, suddenly he wanted to see Xu Yunjin very much.

Regardless of the large number of things that have not been dealt with, when Shi Junji arrived at Xu's mansion, Xu Yunjin hadn't woken up from his afternoon nap.Shi Junji sat quietly by the bed, looking at the sleeping Xu Yunjin, his originally irritable mood suddenly calmed down.

Touching the broken hair by Xu Yunjin's ear, Shi Jun smiled unconsciously. After a while, he also took off his clothes, turned over and went inside, and gently covered Xu Yunjin's body with the thin quilt. On himself, he carefully pulled Xu Yunjin into his arms. A series of movements did not wake Xu Yunjin up, only Xu Yunjin murmured softly.

Holding Xu Yunjin in his arms, feeling Xu Yunjin's temperature, Shi Jun couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. The breath that had been held in his chest since the Empress Dowager went to Changping Palace just now disappeared completely, leaving only a warm feeling.

Xu Yunjin woke up from his nap and felt that the quality of today's nap was very good. Just as he was about to stretch, he felt someone else's wristband around his waist, and he felt the heat behind him. He didn't panic, and turned his head slightly Looking at the person behind him, it was indeed Shi Junji.

Shi Junji's sleep was very light, after all, he had already taken a nap once.When Xu Yunjin woke up, Shi Junji had already woken up.Seeing Xu Yunjin looking back at him, Shi Junji took the opportunity to kiss the corner of Xu Yunjin's mouth.

Xu Yunjin didn't take it seriously, turned his neck that was sore from turning over, and asked in a muffled voice, "Why are you here at this time? Are you done with everything?"

"It will take some time to finish it." Shi Junji responded, "You are living a really good life now. You either eat or sleep every day, which makes me very envious when I look at it."

"Envy?" Xu Yunjin raised his eyebrows, rolled out of Shi Junji's arms, sat up and sat on the side of the bed, "I can't even envy you." Looking back at Shi Junji again, "In his position, seek his job .”

Shi Junji touched his nose, deliberately pretending to be innocent.Seeing that Xu Yunjin ignored him, Shi Junji simply pulled Xu Yunjin who got up to leave, and dragged him into his arms. Xu Yunjin turned around and gave Shi Junji a slap in the stomach with his elbow, and he was able to escape smoothly.

Xu Yunjin rubbed his stomach: "I'm hungry." Turning around and going out to find something to eat, Shi Junji had no choice but to stand up and follow behind Xu Yunjin.
