Queen's New Clothes

140 The Finale 1
Among these women, there are many beautiful ones, and some of them look about the same age as Su Xi, sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a pair of skirts with water ripples sprinkled with gold, and a high bun.Some of them were the daughters of court officials who were sent into the palace to win over the emperor's heart, and some were beautiful women selected from various places.

Xu Shi lived in the palace for a long time, and all of them behaved very well. Even when they were sent out of the palace, they each had their own state of mind, and they didn't show it to a large extent.

I don't know who saw Wei Yan and Su Xi first, knelt down and saluted: "See Your Majesty, See Your Majesty the Empress."

Immediately afterwards, a group of people huffed and squatted down, saluting the empress.

Wei Yan lowered his eyes and took a look, said flatly, without any extra words, and prepared to take Su Xi back to the Xuanshi Hall.

Several beauties quietly raised their eyes to look at the new emperor.It just so happened that Wei Yan walked past them, only to see a side face with handsome brows and thin lips. Although he did not show the alienation of being thousands of miles away, it made people feel that he was not close.

Only when His Majesty looked at the queen beside him, would there be a hint of humanity in his eyes.

Look at the queen empress at the side, wearing a gorgeous and grand crown dress, wearing a double phoenix and dragon crown on her head, looking forward to Qian Shuli, with white teeth and high eyebrows, she is so beautiful that it is admirable to be happy and angry.Her eyes fluttered gently and landed on them inadvertently, making many concubines who boasted of extraordinary appearance feel ashamed.

Su Xi frowned slightly.The concubines thought that the empress was impatient to see themselves, and felt uneasy for a while, so they buried their heads deeper.

Little did she know that Su Xi frowned only because her forehead hurt too much.But she looked at their uneasy looks, and didn't say anything to explain it.

Just as she was about to leave, a woman wearing a peach-colored woven golden tea patterned large-sleeve shirt suddenly came out of the crowd, knelt down in front of Wei Feng with a "plop", and said with tears in her eyes, "I beg Your Majesty to give this concubine a way out."

Wei Yan's footsteps paused slightly, his brows furrowed almost inaudibly.After a while, he heard him ask indifferently: "What's the matter?"

Su Xi was taken aback by the woman who rushed out suddenly.After he regained his composure, he took a closer look at her eyebrows and eyes, and found that she was a beautiful, fresh and refined beauty, especially at this moment with tears in her eyes, which were so pitiful and distressing.

The woman's surname is Gao, and she was a talented person of the fifth rank when Emperor Zhaoyuan was not abdicated.She lowered her head and raised her handkerchief to wipe away her tears. She choked up and said, "The concubine was sent to the palace by the prefect of Shuzhou. The prefect of Shuzhou prefect is stalking the people, if, if he knows that the concubine is kicked out of the palace, This concubine is bound to end badly..."

He Baizhang, the magistrate of Shu Prefecture, was corrupt and perverted the law. Wei Yan had heard about it for a long time, but he had just ascended the throne and had not had time to rectify it.His eyes were indifferent and he said nothing.

Gao Cairen continued to wipe away tears.She has a thin body, crying like pear blossoms and rain, more like a weak willow supporting the wind. "I beg Your Majesty to let me stay in the palace, and I will serve Your Majesty and the Empress wholeheartedly. I beg Your Majesty to help you..."

There is no beating around the bush, the intention is obvious.

Su Xi raised her eyes and looked at the dozen or so concubines behind her.These people also looked at the talented person in a daze, they probably didn't expect her to be so courageous and openly block the emperor's carriage.

If Wei Yan agreed to Gao Cairen's request at this time, then the remaining concubines would also have reasons to request to stay.It would be unreasonable and ruthless if Wei Yan rejected a talented person.Instead, Wei Yan was presented with a dilemma.

But if Wei Yan was really so easily blamed, he would not be the noble and indifferent Wei Shizi back then.He said calmly and without any waves: "There is no shortage of maidservants in the palace."

The implication is that Gao's service is not needed.As he said that, he called the palace maid who was behind him, and ordered: "Send them out of the palace gate, so as not to bump into some adults on the road." He glanced at everyone and said: "If there is anything else, tell Xu Eunuch will do."

Mrs. Gao was rejected mercilessly by Wei Feng. She was already ashamed, but now she heard Wei Feng say "Clash", she suddenly raised her head with a panicked expression.

Wei Yan didn't look at her, and walked straight in front of her.

Su Xi drove to keep up, passed by Gao Shi, thought for a while, but still didn't stop.

The emperor and empress' chariot passed in front of them, even stingy with giving them a look.It was as if they were just insignificant people who couldn't make any waves in front of them.The beauties looked at themselves, then at the talented man kneeling, and recalled the empress's unmoved face from the beginning to the end, and couldn't help feeling that the empress's upbringing was really excellent.

"Hiss... Take it easy. Woohoo, it hurts so much."

It's not that Su Xi isn't jealous, it's just that in front of outsiders, she wants to present an image of a generous, dignified and elegant queen.There was no one in the Nuan Pavilion, she looked at Wei Feng with wet eyes, flattened her mouth, and said a little sourly: "Your Majesty is so charming, the first time Mrs. Gao met you, she wanted to stay by your side and serve you anonymously."

It was only at this time that she showed the coquettishness of a little girl.

Wei Wei knew that she was tired early this morning, she was not a high-profile person, and now she has suffered a lot secretly in order to be a queen.He felt sorry for her, but after hearing what she said, he couldn't help applying the medicine harder, and rubbed her forehead, "Little white-eyed wolf, who am I doing this for?"

Su Xi choked up in pain, covered her forehead and moved back, looked at him reproachfully, and refused to let him touch it again.

The beauty couch is only this big, and she can't hide anywhere.Wei Yan fished her back again, held her in his arms, patted her little butt lightly twice, and said, "If you say something like this next time, aren't you afraid that I will really accept someone else?"

Su Xi struggled to break free from him, twisted her body and sat astride his waist, with her small fists tucked into his lapel, raised her face, a little angry: "How dare you?"

Wei Yan had never seen her like this before, and found it both novel and cute.He smiled lowly, put the ointment on the vermilion lacquer square table beside him, and kissed her, "Youyou watch me more closely, so naturally I dare not."

Zhiyan and Zhiyu have been very noisy for more than four months. She spends a lot of energy looking after the two children every day, and often neglects him.Wei Yan has been dissatisfied with this for a long time, but he was busy with a lot of things a while ago, so he held back for now. Now that everything has come to an end, the child's father finally has a chance to invite favor.

It's not unreasonable for Wei Yan to say that.

That night after Wei Yan finished reviewing the memorial, he returned from the imperial study to the Xuanshi Hall, and saw that there was no one on the spacious dragon couch.

According to the rules, no one else was allowed to sleep on the emperor's dragon couch, not even the empress.But the people below know that Queen Su is different from the previous queens.It is perfectly normal for His Majesty to sleep on the same bed with her hurting like an eyeball, so he acquiesced to this behavior a long time ago.

Wei Yan asked the people in the palace: "Where's the queen?"

The palace maid bowed her knees and said, "Report to Your Majesty, Your Majesty is accompanying the two little princes in Linxuan Palace."

Linxuan Hall is the side hall next to it, where Zhiyan and Zhiyu sleep.Hearing this, Wei Yan frowned unconsciously, and strode towards Linxuan Hall.

It's fine to stay with your son at ordinary times, and if you don't even leave him this little time at night, what he said during the day is for nothing?

When I arrived at Linxuan Hall, I saw three people lying side by side on the bed.Su Xi curled up slightly, with long eyelashes drooping, and pink cheeks, as if she was fast asleep.Two pink and tender milk dolls were lying in her arms, holding her fingers, and stroking his fingers, with pouty faces, sleeping soundly.

Wei Yan took a tiger skin rattle from the bedside incense table and put it in the hands of his eldest son Zhiyan.Zhiyan let go of Su Xi's fingers, he leaned over without making any movement, picked Su Xi up from the couch, and walked towards the Xuanshi Hall.

Lying on the spacious and comfortable dragon couch in Xuanshi Hall, Su Xi woke up in a daze, rubbing his eyes, and said, "Why did Cousin Tingzhou bring me back? What about the childish words?"

Wei Yan covered her body and bit her ear, "Youngyou, you have childish words, so you don't want me?"

Su Xi was stunned, and it took a while to realize what he said. She hugged his waist with her eyes closed, arched into his arms, and said sleepily: "I don't know what happened to Zhiyan Zhiyu tonight." , crying all the time, I couldn't be coaxed. I had to stay in Linxuan Hall to accompany them, and fell asleep without paying attention..." As he spoke, he seemed to smile, and his tone was delicate: "You're jealous of your own son, cheapskate. If the ministers find out, His Majesty is like this in private, so I can't laugh at you."

Wei Yan: "..." This little girl seems to be getting sharper and sharper.

He lowered his head and kissed her chattering pink lips, with a sense of punishment: "They still care what I look like in private? Do they also care if I kiss my own queen?"

In a blink of an eye, it is the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, the day of New Year's Eve.

Wei Yan finished handling the maintenance a few days in advance, and held a banquet in the palace at night to celebrate Su Xi's birthday.No ministers from the court were invited, only the families of the Yin and Su families were invited, and the Supreme Emperor and Empress Dowager from the Heshun Garden were also present.

Su Xi brought two little fans to meet his family.Zhiyan and Zhiyu are much cuter than when they were just born. The former two grew front teeth together, and when they grinned, they showed small glutinous rice teeth, which was very lovable.Yin could not put it down to these two grandchildren, hugging this and hugging that.The younger brother Zhiyu is familiar with himself, and he also opened his fleshy little hands to hug his grandmother, making Yin very happy.

Yin Shi kissed Zhizhiyu's little fleshy face, looked at Song Keqing, the second daughter-in-law, and said with a smile: "Whenever I can hold brother Zhi's child, I will be consummated without any regrets."

Song Keqing was wiping the saliva from Zhiyu's mouth with a Juan handkerchief, when she heard that her face became hot, she stopped her movements.She lowered her eyelashes and said shyly, "Mother..." She and Su Zhi had only been married for more than a month, how could she be pregnant so early.

Song Keqing's expression darkened.Besides, she didn't know what kind of feelings Su Zhi had for her, he was always indifferent and unpredictable.Once he went out to do errands and came back very late. She was worried that he would be hungry outside, so she ordered someone to set up a table of food, and she didn't have dinner, she kept waiting for him.But when he came back, his complexion was not very good, he just frowned and said that he didn't have to wait for him in the future.Although they had dinner together later, Su Zhi didn't say a word the whole time, and seemed dissatisfied with her behavior.

Song Keqing didn't know whether he didn't like waiting for her, or didn't like eating with her, or didn't like herself as a person.

She hadn't told anyone about these things, and only occasionally did she get confused when she thought about them.Since she is married to Su Zhi, no matter what his attitude towards her is, she will treat him wholeheartedly and be his wife.

Mrs. Yin understood her son's temperament and probably knew something. While patting her little grandson Zhiyu's back lightly, she comforted Song Keqing and said, "Brother Zhi's temperament is a bit cold, but he has a good heart. Maybe he will feel wronged sometimes. You, take care of yourself. After a long time, he will naturally know who treats him well. If he does something wrong, you can come to me and say it, and I will make decisions for you. But the most important thing is for you young couple to live I can manage it for a while, but I can't manage it for a lifetime. The doorway here has to be explored by yourself."

Yin's voice was low and the banquet was lively, so only Su Xi who was at the side heard it, and no one else heard it.

Song Keqing's face turned even redder, and she responded softly. "My daughter-in-law knows. Mother, my daughter-in-law never feels wronged."

Over there, Su Zhi was pestered by Yin Changxu, the second master of the Yin family, and drank a few glasses of wine. His expression did not change, but the second master Yin was drunk.Su Zhi tilted his head and looked towards Yin and Song Keqing, and saw Song Keqing lowered his eyes slightly, his cheeks were flushed, and he didn't know what mother had said to her.

He bypassed the crowd and walked over, Yin Shi saw him coming, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhi, come and see Zhiyanzhiyu."

Su Zhi looked at the two baby babies in their swaddling clothes. They had the same delicate faces and dark eyes. After careful identification, one could see that one was more like Wei Wei and the other was more like Su Xi.He leaned over, hugged Xiao Zhiyu who was more like Su Xi, and teased his face.

Zhiyu hadn't seen this second uncle very much, and looked at him curiously with wide eyes.

Yin Shi said: "Look at how cute these two children were born, they are even more beautiful than you and brother Li when they were young."

Su Zhi smiled and did not deny it.

Yin said again: "When will you and Keqing have such a beautiful baby..."

Over there, Song Keqing paused slightly, probably because he didn't expect the Yin family to bring up this matter in front of Su Zhi.

Su Zhi lowered his gaze slightly, and could only see the top of Song Keqing's head and the slightly reddish back of her ears.After a while, he said softly: "It shouldn't take long."

Song Keqing: "..."

Yin said happily.Zhiyu didn't know what the adults were talking about, seeing his grandmother smiled happily, he also laughed, and the "giggle" laughter continued.

Su Xi took the youngest son from the arms of the second brother, tapped the tip of his nose with soft fingertips, and said helplessly, "What are you laughing at? Do you understand?"

Zhiyu blinked her eyelashes, looked at Su Xi, as if thinking about what her mother had said to him.

In the past few days of the Chinese New Year, although the officials of the imperial court are on holiday, Wei Feng is still busy every day.Night clothing and daily food, wearing stars and wearing moon.

Su Xi felt sorry that he was too tired, so after putting her two sons to sleep every day, she ordered the small kitchen to make snacks and went to visit him in the imperial study.

Wei Yan pinched the center of his brows, took her hand and wrapped her in his arms, and rested on her neck for a while.

Su Xi remained motionless, playing with his slender fingers, "Will Cousin Tingzhou be so busy every day from now on?"

If things go on like this, the body will not be able to bear it.She finally knew why Emperor Zhao Yuan was short of body early.

Wei Yan took a breath of the sweet scent of her body, and said, "I'm just busy for a while. After dealing with the government affairs left by the Supreme Emperor, it will be much better."

For example, he has ordered the governor to investigate the matter of He Baizhang, the magistrate of Shuzhou.

Su Xi was always worried that Wei Yan's body would be exhausted, so she asked the imperial dining room to boil a pot of soup every day to replenish energy and relieve fatigue.After a long time, she learned to cook by herself, making soup for Wei Yan.The first is the black chicken and ginseng soup. She learned from the master of the imperial dining room for a whole afternoon and cooked it for two or three hours.

After sending it to the imperial study, Wei Yan was reviewing the memorial behind the table.

Su Xi filled a bowl, brought the small pastel bowl in front of him, then sat across from him with her cheeks in her hands, looked at him with a smile, without saying a word.

Wei Yan took a sip of the soup slowly.Seeing the smiling eyes of the girl opposite, he scratched her nose, "What's so funny?"

Su Xi asked, "Is it good?"

Wei Wei nodded: "Shang Ke, the chicken soup has been boiled for too long, next time you can let the imperial dining room..." He paused, as if he had guessed something, looked at Su Xi, and asked in a daze: "You made it ?”

Su Xi nodded generously, "Yes. I see that Cousin Tingzhou works so hard every day, I'm afraid you'll be exhausted, and you'll get old before you get old, what will Zhiyan, Zhiyu and I do."

Wei Yan looked at the soup in the bowl and remained silent.The girl on the opposite side chattered and asked, "Is it good or not?"

Wei Yan waved at her, "Come here, and I'll tell you."

Su Xi obediently passed by.As soon as he came to him, Wei Yan took him into his arms.

Wei Yan asked in a low voice: "Why didn't I know that my young boy can still cook soup?"

Su Xi pursed her lips, put her arms around his waist, and whispered, "If you don't like it, I'll just stop doing it in the future."

"I like it." Wei Yan put his thin lips against her forehead and said with a low smile, "As long as it's made by you, I like it."

After the [-]th day of the first lunar month, the maintenance left by the Supreme Emperor was gradually finished.Officials also went to the Yamen to sell holidays and returned to the court.

Once a person is free, it is easy to find work.

Previously, Su Xi gave birth to a pair of twins, and these ministers did not find a suitable opportunity to mention it.During the morning court today, Xie Guangwen from the Sixth Division stood up and said that twins in the royal family are an ominous omen. In order to avoid future disasters, I implore His Majesty to make a choice and only leave one son.

After Xie Guangwen started, several other officials also stood up one after another, all asking Wei Feng to give up.

It was almost evening when Su Xi knew about it.It was Changshun, the little father-in-law of Xuanshidian, who told her.

Changshun was clever, quick-witted, and moved around the palace diligently, so he could inquire about everything.

Su Xi sat on the rattan-faced arhat table, her hand shaking the rattle paused, and said after a long time, "What did your Majesty say?"

Chang Shun tucked his hands in his hands, and said honestly: "Your Majesty didn't say anything, it seems that after scolding Lord Xie, he left the court."

Su Xi pursed her lips and smiled, which seemed to be Wei Yan's style.

Chang Shun glanced at the two little princes who were lying on the couch, wearing the same royal blue and gold embroidered jackets, and said carefully, "Madam, do you want to go and talk to Your Majesty?" Such cute two little princes, who would abandon them? None of them are willing.

Zhiyan and Zhiyu couldn't understand what the adults said, seeing that mother stopped shaking the rattle, they stretched out their chubby arms to reach.Brother Zhiyan grabbed the handle of the rattle and shook it just like his mother did just now. The crisp sound of the rattle drum sounded again, and the two little dumplings were happy. They stepped on the soft couch with their little fleshy legs and laughed happily.

Su Xi thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "No need, Your Majesty must be busy right now, so I won't bother you."

She believed in Wei Yan and would take care of everything.

He must be the same as himself, unwilling to give up any child.

At night, Wei Yan came back from the imperial study.Su Xi was just like a normal person. She waited on him to change out of the heavy court clothes. After dinner, she casually mentioned another matter, "I heard from the palace people below that the Wushuang Hall will be built soon. I will add some furniture at that time." , I will live with Zhiyan Zhiyu."

Wei Yan held her hand, frowned and said, "Isn't Xuan Shi Palace living well?"

Su Xi blinked and said, "Of course."Then he said: "But aren't there rules in the palace? If I stay in the Xuanshi Palace all the time, I will break the rules, and the officials below will definitely talk about you again."

Wei Yan seemed to be cursing "Damn rules".Su Xi looked at him in surprise, this was the first time she had heard him swear since she knew Wei Feng.It turned out that the dignified and aloof Wei Shizi was forced to be anxious, and he also knew how to speak foul language.

Su Xi couldn't help laughing, "Then what do you say?"

Wei Yan frowned, and said coldly, "I'll just live here, and I'll see who dares to object."

So the Wushuang hall was temporarily vacant, and everything was built inside, but the owner has not been seen to live in it for a long time.The officials, headed by Xie Guangwen in the six subjects, were arguing about the twins. One said that the twins were unlucky, and the other said that if a prince was established in the future, it would be easy for brothers to kill each other.

Xie Wenguang said: "If your Majesty has difficulty making a choice, you can decide according to the order of birth. Keep the eldest son and abandon the youngest son. The youngest son sacrifices to heaven..."

Wei Yan sat on the dragon couch with a face as heavy as water, and said lightly: "Master Xie said that twins are unlucky, is there any basis?"

Xie Wenguang said: "Looking at the history books, there is no example of twins in the imperial family. If there were, it was early..."

"Tiger poison doesn't eat its own son. If I do what you wish and kill my own son, do you dare to support such a person?" Wei Yan asked expressionlessly.

Several officials looked at each other in blank dismay. They had just remonstrated with righteous indignation, but now they were pushed back to grandma's house by Wei Feng, and no one said a word.

Xie Wenguang is an old-fashioned old man, and he still does not give up. He insisted: "Your Majesty is doing this for the sake of the country and the country, and he has to do it as a last resort. I must understand Your Majesty..."

Wei Yan looked indifferently, with cold sarcasm in his eyes, looked at Xie Wenguang below, and said: "In this case, I remember that Master Xie's two grandchildren are also twins. Master Xie thinks that twins are unlucky, why don't you take the lead? Convince the people below?"

Xie Wenguang's hand holding the wat board snapped, thinking of his grandson's lovely face, he suddenly had nothing to say.

Wei Yan glanced at the officials below, and said indifferently: "No one is allowed to mention this matter in the future. If anyone wants to mention it, he must first kill his own son before coming to see me."

He flicked his dragon robe, "Retire."

Su Xi heard from her little father-in-law Changshun that when the officials went to court, no one mentioned her two sons anymore.

Chang Shun learned Wei Feng's tone that morning, flicked his sleeves and said, "...retire from the court!" As he spoke, he leaned in front of Su Xi, and said dog-leggedly, "Your Majesty didn't see that, Your Majesty is so heroic and smart. Wisdom, determination and chic..."

Seeing the figure at the door, Su Xi didn't want to listen to what he had to say, so she walked over with a horse-faced skirt with Yunlong and sea patterns, and stopped in front of Wei Wei with a smile, "Why is cousin Tingzhou coming back at this time? Are you not watching in the study?" Is it a memorial?"

Chang Shun quickly swept his sleeves, knelt on the ground and greeted Wei Yan.

Wei Yan glanced at Changshun, and then at the pretty queen in front of him, a little helpless: "What did he tell you?"

Su Xi stepped forward and took Wei Wei's hand, and led him to the inner hall, "You don't tell me these things, I have no choice but to ask them. Life in the palace is so boring, so I'll tell you about it Eunuch Shun called over to relieve boredom..."

Over there, Eunuch Changshun immediately expressed his opinion, "It's a slave's honor for your empress to take a fancy to this servant."

Wei Yan narrowed his eyes, waved him out.

"I didn't tell you because I was afraid that you would think wildly after knowing. Now that the matter is over, I will tell you everything you want to know." Wei Yan squeezed Su Xi's palm and said.

Su Xi tilted her head and thought for a while, then said, "If those ministers still don't let go and insist on making a choice... what should you do?"

After a while, Wei Yan said slowly: "Then I can only choose you and the child. I don't care if I don't sit on the throne..."

Before he could finish speaking, Su Xi covered his mouth with her hand.Immediately afterwards, he kissed him on the cheek, and changed the topic to a more relaxed one, "I just cooked a pot of mutton soup with Ting Hexue, and I'm about to send it to you. Would you like to try it? It's delicious."

Wei Yan smiled and said yes.

The next day, after Wei Yan came to court, all the servants serving in the Xuanshi Palace were replaced by maids, and there was not a single eunuch left.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

In the blink of an eye, it is early spring, everything is revived, a hundred flowers are in full bloom, and the imperial garden is full of vitality.

Su Xi is currently looking at the marriage of Ting Yan and Ting He. The two of them are not young, and if they drag on, they will become old girls.They have been with Su Xi for so many years, Su Xi doesn't want to wrong them, and wants to marry them in a glorious way.

I heard that there is a marriage in He's family, and the other party has been waiting for her for eight or nine years. "The servant has no ambition, so I just want to go back and live a good life with him..."

Su Xi nodded in agreement, then turned to Ting Yan and asked, "Where is Sister Ting Yan? Do you want me to be the master, or has the family already arranged a marriage for you?"

Ting Yan knelt down with a "plop" and said: "The servant only wants to follow the girl, even if she doesn't marry for the rest of her life, it doesn't matter."

Su Xi poured a cup of hibiscus tea, looked at the blooming flowers on the crabapple tree opposite, and there was a person standing behind the clusters.She bent her eyes and said with a smile: "You don't want to get married, but I think some people can't wait."

Hearing the geese puzzled, follow along.He saw Li Hong standing far away, dressed in the clothes of Jin Wuwei.

Hearing that Yan Yan blushed and lowered his head, people who are usually careless will become coy instead, "I will obey my mother. If my mother thinks he is good, my servant will marry him; if my mother thinks he is not good, my servant will marry him." Do not marry."

Su Xi had already seen that the two of them were tricky. When Yan Yan begged Li Hong to teach her martial arts, Li Hong's eyes never left her.

Su Xi smiled, and asked intentionally, "If I think he's not good enough, what if I want to see someone else for Sister Ting Yan?"

"..." Ting Yan was a little anxious, but he couldn't take back what he had said, so he choked out a sentence after a while: "Young lady is what she says."

Looking at that appearance, I feel so regretful that my intestines are green.

In the evening, Su Xi mentioned the matter of Ting Yan and Li Hong to Wei Feng, "Do you want to ask Li Hong for his opinion?"

Wei Yan was taking off his clothes, his face remained unchanged and he said: "Li Hong is not young anymore, I saw that he has a lot of heart for your maid. You set a date and let's arrange their marriage."

Su Xi said yes, there were no good days in early April, and it was too late in May, so she picked a day at the end of March.

The time was a bit rushed, but the Empress Dowager personally arranged it in an orderly manner.

Su Xi admired Tingyan's house outside the palace, where Tingyan got married.

Li Hong has also built his own mansion since he was promoted to the fourth-rank upper-rank general Habayashi Zhonglang.Listening to the day when the geese were married, the gongs and drums outside the mansion were full of excitement.Su Xi told Wei Feng, and quietly left the palace to watch the excitement.She was sitting in Cui Gai Zhu Ying's carriage, and heard that Yan Yan was wearing a hipa, was led into the mansion by Li Hong, and then returned to the palace.

This end, the Royal Study Room.

Han Jinkun, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, and Jiying, the right capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, stood side by side in front of them.

Wei Yan closed a memorial, and asked casually, "Is there something for the scholar Han and Master Ji?"

The two looked at each other, and Lord Ji stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, it's spring now. You dismissed the empress and concubine of the Supreme Emperor earlier, and now there is only the empress and empress in the harem. For the sake of future children, whether it is necessary to expand the harem, and the rain and dew will be wet... "

Without raising his head, Wei Yan said, "I have no such plan. If you two came here for this matter, you can go back."

Master Ji was not discouraged, and pushed Master Han out, and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, the youngest daughter of Master Han is knowledgeable, gentle and gentle. Except for her frail body, she is proficient in everything. If you have no objection, why not choose I will send her into the palace to serve you and the empress, what do you think?"

Wei Yan finally put down his pen, and gave Master Ji a cold look.

Ji Ying immediately shut up.

Wei Yan lowered his eyes and smiled, lightly tapped the table with his fingertips, and said slowly, "Master Ji, don't you understand what I'm saying?"

Master Ji saluted and said: "I am only thinking of His Majesty, I beg Your Majesty to forgive me."

Wei Wei pursed his lips, and smiled meaningfully, "For my sake, or for yourselves? Master Ji, where do you think my harem is, and any sick child can be stuffed in?" As he spoke, his gaze With a slight turn, it landed on the body of Grand Scholar Han Jinkun.

Han Jinkun wiped off his sweat and explained for his daughter: "Although my daughter is weak, she has no symptoms. She has been nourished by medicinal materials for the past two years, and she has recovered..."

Wei Yan said lightly, "So you're in a hurry to sell it outside?"

Han Jinkun choked, speechless.

Wei Yan picked up a memorial again, and said mercilessly: "Go back, there is no need to mention this matter again."

Lord Ji wanted to say more, but seeing the emperor looking down at the memorial, as if he didn't want to talk to them, he had no choice but to leave the imperial study room with Bachelor Han.

I thought this matter was over, after all, Wei Yan made it very clear.Unexpectedly, a few days later in the morning, when Wei Wei and Su Xi went to Heshun Garden to greet the Supreme Emperor and Empress Dowager, Han Yufu happened to be there.

Han Yufu came earlier, sitting in the rose chair below the empress dowager, wearing a lake blue gold-woven shirt with large sleeves, sitting upright below, lowering his head slightly, answering the empress dowager's words.Looking up, he saw Wei Feng and Su Xi coming, he hurriedly got up and saluted, and said: "My servant, please refer to Your Majesty and Empress."

Wei Yan withdrew his gaze.Although Su Xi didn't know why she was here, she gave her a little help and said, "Get up."

After being seated, the Empress Dowager explained: "Yufu's mother, Mrs. Han, is the handkerchief of the Ai family. I heard that the Ai family has not slept well recently, so I asked Yufu to come into the palace to see the Ai family."

Su Xi took a red sandalwood embossed food box from Tingli, handed it to Mother Jiang who was beside the queen mother, and said, "I have asked the imperial doctor about it, and the imperial doctor said that you may be lacking in energy and blood. A meal that invigorates the heart. It just so happened that Erchen learned how to cook a meal recently, so I cooked you a bowl of longan and lotus seed soup. Would you like to try it while it's hot?"

She has such a heart, the empress dowager is naturally very happy.Mother Jiang served a bowl of soup, and the Empress Dowager took a sip, wondering, "Why is the sweetness different from usual?"

Su Xi explained: "I was worried that putting too much white sugar would be bad for your health, so I used honey to ban white sugar. Honey is mild in nature, can nourish the deficiency and moisten the lungs, and can also promote sleep."

The empress dowager put down the small red bowl in the glaze, took Su Xi's hand and patted it, and said with a smile: "You girl, you really have a heart."

Su Xi pursed her lips and smiled lightly.The Empress Dowager took care of her and Wei Feng a lot on weekdays, so she naturally had to repay the Empress Dowager.

Although Wei Yan is not her queen mother's biological son, she has always been kind and friendly to them, and has never treated Wei Yan coldly because of the throne.Such a good aunt might be hard to find anywhere in the world.

After sitting for more than half an hour, Wei Yan still had maintenance waiting to be dealt with, so he didn't stay long, and said goodbye to Su Xi first.

Han Yufu over there also stood up, bowed his knees towards the Empress Dowager and said, "Your Majesty, Mother is still waiting for Yufu to deliver a message at home. It's getting late, and it's time for Yufu to leave."

The empress dowager didn't want to keep her, and found a nanny to take her out.

When Han Yufu walked out of Heshun Garden, Wei Feng and Su Xi hadn't gone far.

I saw Su Xi's water-blue silk pleated skirt accidentally caught by the thorns of roses on the side of the road, and His Majesty... bent down, carefully, and personally untied the thorns of the skirt for her.Such a handsome and tall man squatted in front of the empress, and when he raised his eyes to look at her, his eyes were filled with doting and helplessness.When the skirt and the rose thorns were finally separated, His Majesty bent his index finger, tapped the Queen's forehead lightly, and said, "I don't look at it when I walk."

Su Xi thought she was in the wrong and didn't refute. She couldn't help but argue: "...it was blown by the wind."

Han Yufu walked behind them, bowed his knees and saluted: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Her way out of the palace happened to be this way.

Su Xi looked back, paused, and said, "Miss Han, you don't have to be polite."

Han Yufu straightened up, turned his eyes slightly, stayed on Wei Feng for a moment, and then moved away quickly.She squeezed her palms and waited for a while. Seeing that the Empress had no intention of opening her mouth, she considered for a long time before saying, "Your Majesty, I heard that my father found you a while ago and made you unhappy. Don't take it to heart. Father is loyal to you." Geng Geng..." After a pause, he continued: "You don't want to accept the court lady, the court lady has no complaints, just please don't blame Dao's father..."

Su Xi looked at Han Yufu.

Wei Yan's voice was calm, and he said without any emotion: "I'm not someone who doesn't know right from wrong. I should be rewarded or punished. I have my own decision in my heart, and I won't change it because of your words." After a pause, he added A very ordinary sentence, "As for accepting or not accepting the concubine, it has nothing to do with you. I love the queen, and there will only be one person in this life."
