[Comprehensive] Empress Variations

After Liu Che read the last memorial, he put the reviewed memorial aside and leaned on the chair to rest for a while.Closing his eyes, his whole body became a bit lazy.After a long time, he asked a question. "Do you have faith in Jiaofang Palace?"

"Your Majesty, the empress has been taking care of her body these days. The daily medicinal soup and meals are all in charge of the grand maid in her palace, and even the people in the imperial dining room are rarely summoned." Guo Sheren walked forward One step, truthfully tell him what he knows.

Guo Sheren was different from other eunuchs in that his name was not some auspicious name given by the palace, but he kept his name before becoming a eunuch.This person was quite trusted by Liu Che and served by Liu Che's side.

"En." Liu Che responded casually.When Chen Ajiao said that sentence, he was extremely shocked.Then he calmed down, and anyone would say empty words.The only difference is that you can do it and you can't.

Chen Ajiao in his impression could not be a qualified queen.She couldn't tolerate the gorgeous concubines in the harem, and she couldn't bear the children conceived for him by other women.How can we talk about the world of the mother?

In the past few days, she really became quiet, not noisy.It's just... I haven't even stepped out of the Jiaofang Hall.

"Sister Gillian's body should be recovering." Liu Che opened his eyes and sat upright again.

"Physician Liang said that the empress's body is weak, and she will get better after taking the medicine for four or five days. But in the future, you need to pay attention to conditioning." Guo Sheren didn't say whether Chen Ajiao's body is in good condition or not, but repeated the statement of Imperial Physician Liang. if.

"Sister A-Jiao's health is my blessing. I just don't know if Sister A-Jiao will continue to 'self-cultivate her character' in the future." Liu Che looked at Yuxi who was not far in front of him, and the smile on his lips became softer.

"..." Guo Sheren said nothing, and he knew that what the emperor wanted was not his answer.

Guo Sheren couldn't help thinking about the performance of the empress in the Jiaofang Palace a few days ago, and had a bold guess in his heart.To be able to say that the emperor does not trust her, to be able to treat the empress who is unable to conceive an emperor's heir.Do you really still regard the emperor as the most important thing as before?

'The authorities are obsessed, the bystanders are clear', if the Empress really lets go of her feelings for the Emperor, even if she can't change her temperament, no one in the harem is more suitable for the position of empress than her.

Mrs. Wei is indeed magnanimous, but her background is not noble enough, so she will inevitably be a little petty in her actions.The queen was originally from the Weng Lord, so she actually knows the rules of the palace best.Coupled with her absurd behavior in the past, she has gained a lot of power among the concubines and servants, and no one would dare to obey her and disobey her.

However, for the empress, her birth is both an advantage and a disadvantage.The emperor's treatment of the Dou family...

There was a slight knock on the door of the study, and Guo Sheren hurriedly opened the door and walked in.

In other places, the little eunuch can directly report some things.However, obviously these places do not include the emperor's study.Interfering with the emperor's official business is a serious crime.

Not long after, Guo Sheren returned to the study.He met Liu Che's gaze, and opened his mouth without waiting for the emperor to ask a question. "Your Majesty, the empress is asking to see you."

"Oh? Hurry up and invite the empress to come in." Liu Che looked at the closed door.Chen Ajiao, it is really impossible to settle down.During the few days when she stayed in Jiaofangdian obediently, her body probably didn't allow her to continue messing around.Now that she's just getting better, is she going to go back to her old ways?

"The concubine sees Your Majesty." Chen Ajiao saluted Liu Che, which was still very standard etiquette, not sloppy at all.

"Sister Gillian, please get up quickly." Liu Che stood up from his seat as he spoke. "Sister A-Jiao is still very weak. When there are no outsiders, these formalities can be avoided. In the past, didn't Sister A-Jiao hate this cumbersome etiquette the most?"

Qiaoxuan carefully helped Chen Ajiao to get up, and then stepped aside respectfully.

Chen Ajiao has never hated the complicated etiquette in the palace, she was carefully cultivated by Princess Guantao.Princess Guantao wants to make her daughter a queen. How could she make Chen Ajiao tired of etiquette?

Chen Ajiao was never tired of etiquette, she just used this method to show her different status in Liu Che's heart.No matter how many concubines there are in the palace, she is the only one who can disobey the rules and discipline and salute Liu Che.What she likes is just this particularity.

"In the past, concubines were self-willed. How can the etiquette in this palace be escaped with a sentence of 'like' or 'dislike'. Since it is the rule of the ancestors, concubines should obey." Xun Ying met Liu Che's gaze, "Your Majesty, don't call your concubines like that anymore. No matter what your status is before entering the palace, in this harem, Chen Ajiao is just a member of the harem."

"..." Liu Che's vision was somewhat obscure, he always called Chen Ajiao Sister Ajiao.No matter how much he hated Chen Ajiao, he never thought of changing his name.Now, Chen Ajiao suddenly mentioned this point.Is it no longer 'Sister Gillian', can only be called 'Queen'?From the original intimacy to this alienation...

"The concubine has something to discuss with His Majesty." Xun Ying saw Liu Che's expression in his eyes, and his heart became more and more calm.

"Give me a seat." Liu Che casually picked up the cup on the table, put it to his lips and sipped it, trying to hide his overly obvious emotions. "A-Jiao... It's okay for the queen to speak up if she has anything to say."

Xun Ying sat on a soft chair, Chen Ajiao never had such treatment in her memory.She came to this study quite a few times, and most of them broke up on bad terms.Even when the relationship between the two was the best, Liu Che was full of precautions against her, how could he want her to step into this important place of Xuanshi Palace.

On the surface, it is a person, just change one attitude, that is two kinds of treatment. "Today, my concubine bumped into a few younger sisters in Shanglin Garden. They are really beautiful. No wonder the emperor likes them."

"They are not as beautiful as the queen." This sentence is a scene, but it is also a fact.

After Liu Che said it, he couldn't help but focus on Chen Ajiao's face, but he hadn't seen her for four or five days, and the paleness of Chen Ajiao's complexion had been replaced by a blush.Without the pitiful fragility, it is replaced by a clear and charming beauty.

Now she no longer has the delicate makeup on her face like in the past, but it is more dazzling than any makeup.Liu Che thought that when he first saw the girl, he was shocked by such a face.It's just that, as he grows up, power and interests occupy more of his sight, making him forget the initial emotion.

Time really loves Chen Ajiao, even though she is a few years older than him, this face seems to have stayed in [-] years.The only difference is that it is a bit more mature than before.

"..." Xun Ying glanced at Liu Che lightly, this sentence could already be regarded as molesting.Thinking of the records of Liu Che in history, she calmly accepted this setting.Liu Che has always been extremely 'lustful'. Chen Ajiao, Wei Zifu, Mrs. Li, and Zhao Gouge are all famous beauties.

Xun Ying withdrew her gaze, as if she didn't hear Liu Che's words, let alone a shy look. "The concubine knows that the emperor likes Mrs. Wei the most, but now that Mrs. Wei is pregnant, she should be the heir of the emperor. The emperor can visit other younger sisters more often."

In Liu Che's mind, a queen who could stand side by side with him would naturally think of him in every way.Can handle the harem affairs very well, and can put the emperor's heir first.Not jealous or jealous, dignified and generous.

For Chen Ajiao to be able to say this sentence, it damn fits the image of a queen in his mind.What emerged in my heart was not joy, but something fermented in my heart, sour and astringent, making it unbearable.This is the queen in his mind, but it shouldn't be Chen Ajiao. "But who said what in front of you?!"

Liu Che never thought that Chen Ajiao could say such words willingly, the memory of the past was too deep in his mind.Or, he is just subjectively unwilling to admit it.

"In this harem, who dares to chew his ears in front of his concubines?!" Xun Ying smiled slightly with a bit of arrogance.There was also a bit of obvious indifference and cruelty in her gaze.

Liu Che was quite familiar with this look.Chen Ajiao has never been a dodder, she is like a hedgehog, as long as someone pokes her sore spot, she will definitely bruise others.

"Since it's not a villain, then you, the queen..." Liu Che couldn't help but focus on Chen Ajiao.

"The emperor once said that the courtiers have always been 'magnanimous'. In the past, the courtiers were ashamed of that compliment. Now that words, the courtiers feel at ease." Xun Ying got up from her seat. "Recently, the emperor is busy with official duties, and often stays in the Xuanshi Palace. From the perspective of the courtiers and concubines, the emperor needs to combine work and rest, and be lucky with the concubines in the harem. It is also good to add some fresh blood to the royal family..."

Liu Che would rather that Chen Ajiao didn't add the last sentence, so he can still deceive himself and others to regard these words as Chen Ajiao's invitation to favor in disguise. "Adding some fresh blood to the royal family" excludes herself in one sentence, and Liu Che has to re-examine Chen Ajiao in front of her.

Chen Ajiao said that he never believed her, it was absolutely correct.Even now, he still wonders if what Chen Ajiao did has other meanings.In fact, what she expressed has always been obvious, that he thought too complicated.

Her promise is really a promise of gold.

Chen Ajiao said that she wants to be a qualified queen.Now she is also fulfilling her promise, discussing with him so calmly to favor those concubines.

Even Chen Ajiao and Princess Guantao's mansion have constant entanglements.However, he also had to admit that the current Chen Ajiao best met his expectations for a queen.

"The empress is really 'magnanimous'. In this harem, I am afraid there will be no one who can do better than you." Liu Che felt a little unwilling.He didn't know whether he was unwilling to have his plan completely disrupted, or whether he was unwilling to do something else...

"The concubine once thought that she would never be able to be 'magnanimous', but now she feels that there is no difficulty." Xun Ying's expression softened a little, she met Liu Che's gaze, she was in a trance for a moment, and soon came to her senses. "The concubine thought that some things could never be done in this life, but now they can be done easily."

"Sister Gillian..." Liu Che subconsciously didn't want to hear what Chen Gillian said next.

"Your Majesty, the person standing in front of you now is only the empress. She can be the lord of the harem, a courtier or a concubine, but she can't afford to be your sister." Xun Ying took two steps forward, and Liu Che was just Across the table.She stood at the table and he sat behind it.

Xun Ying could look at Liu Che head-on, or even look down. "The concubine finally understands that a qualified queen will never allow herself to fall in love with a real emperor."

Liu Che wanted to refute, but couldn't find the right words.He felt that something was emptied from his body, so that he could only watch Chen Ajiao go further and further...
