The white moonlight of the paranoid tyrant was stolen

Chapter 132 Wine

"Actually, my mother passed away when I was young. Although I haven't felt or seen my mother's love for her children, I would like to believe that if she is still alive, she will be a loving mother."

"Even...even if she's not, I don't think all mothers in the world are like this."

The man held her hand, looked into her eyes for a long time before chuckling, "Perhaps there is some reason for your worry. I really don't know if I will be a good father in the future."

"However... I will try my best to prevent him from being like me."

……

In the next few days, Emperor Tianqin got busy because he had to discuss the construction of the city wall and the opening of the river.

Before dawn in the morning, he got up to discuss with some courtiers in Ganlu Palace. After a few days, he was fine. Looking very embarrassed.

Gu Ruzhen was afraid that he would not eat on time, and the servants around him didn't have the guts to persuade him, so she could only go to Ganlu Hall with a few dishes and a soup during the meal time.

Every time she went there, the rest of the courtiers knew that they could rest for a while, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Lin Shuangxue was still living in Ning'an Hall for the time being. She was frightened by Emperor Tianqin that day. She never thought that His Majesty would be so ruthless to her biological mother, nor did she think that that woman held such a heavy weight in His Majesty's heart.

She hasn't given up on that idea yet, but she is just taking advantage of the opportunity of being ill to stay in the palace for the time being. It would be best if there is an opportunity during the period, if there is no opportunity, then she will create an opportunity.

She stayed in the palace for nearly two months, and besides not being able to come and go freely, she also followed Lin for whatever he ate and used.

Although the wind direction in the palace always follows His Majesty's wishes, if His Majesty doesn't like Mrs. Lin, the good things sent to Mrs. Lin will be much less, but a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. As long as His Majesty does not speak for a day, the Lin is still the Empress Dowager, and she will not lack anything that the Empress Dowager should have.

It was these riches and honors that dazzled Lin Shuangxue, and made her further confirm her plan.

She thought for a while, and asked the palace guards at the door to send a message to Gu Ruzhen.

"I forgot about her."

Gu Ruzhen couldn't help but support her forehead, smiled and said, "Since she wants to go back, let her go back."

If it wasn't for this palace official who came to report today, she would have almost forgotten about this person.

After all, she was imprisoned in the Ning'an Palace together with the Queen Mother, and her presence in the palace was so low that people couldn't remember it.

"Your Majesty, Miss Lin means to go back for three to five days, after which she will enter the palace to serve the sick."

"Let her go."

Ruotong hesitated to speak.

After holding back for a long time, I still couldn't hold it back, "Ma'am, that girl Lin didn't come here to serve the palace. If she said something outside the palace, what should I do?"

"She is a smart girl. She will hide some things that should not be said and cannot be said in her heart."

Ruotong still didn't understand, "Your Majesty, shouldn't we take precautions before they happen?"

Gu Ruzhen raised her eyebrows, "How do you say that?"

"If she finds an opportunity to take advantage of, wouldn't it be..." Ruotong's face changed when he said this, "Your servant is talking too much."

"It's okay, because you're right."

"Then why did the empress leave her in this palace?" Ruotong was puzzled.

Gu Ruzhen thought for a while, put her finger on her lips slightly, and said softly, "Because if she has an opportunity, it can only be given to her by your Majesty, not by her own."

"Without Lin Shuangxue, there would be Zhao Shuangxue and Li Shuangxue. Killing chickens to scare monkeys is uncontrollable, understand?"

Ruotong nodded first, then shook his head again.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand now." She paused, then continued, "Actually, I don't want you all to understand this truth."

Her voice was very soft in the second half of the sentence, so Ruotong didn't hear clearly, when she was about to ask, she heard the woman say again, "How is Wu Zhu?"

Since she clarified the matter last time, Wu Zhu took a two-day leave, and when she came back, she acted as if no strangers or acquaintances were close enough to talk.

Ruotong couldn't help but smiled, "Madam, in order to hide from Master Cui, Wu Zhu took a shortcut and climbed two walls. When he climbed the second wall, Master Cui caught him on the spot. I can't come back."

Gu Ruzhen's eyebrows twitched slightly. Obviously, it is impossible for her to send someone to rescue Wu Zhu at this time. What happens next depends on her own luck.

She stood up and walked in the yard for a while, when she suddenly saw Ruotong holding a jar in her hand, she couldn't help asking, "What is this?"

Ruotong wiped the dirt on the outside of the jar with a handkerchief, "Madam, this is green bamboo leaf wine. This servant has learned a new way of making shortbread, mixing sugar and wine together to make the filling. Although the taste is not as good as the cakes from the Imperial Dining Room , but it doesn’t have a flavor.”

"Put the wine in the bedroom, and you can find other wine." When meeting Ruotong's suspicious eyes, Gu Ruzhen remained calm, "Your Majesty has been busy for many days, drinking some wine can also relax you. "

Ruotong could only nod his head, then put the wine jar in the bedroom, and took two celadon wine cups by the side.

"It's getting late, you guys should go out and rest today, no one is allowed to come near this place without my order."

Hearing this, Ruotong felt even more puzzled. You must know that she had never heard the empress say such things before, it seemed like she was closing the door of the bedroom and trying to do something inside.

But she didn't think too much, and she greeted a few palace people to go out, and stood guard at the outermost gate of Shengning Palace.

When Emperor Tianqin came here, he almost thought that he had made a mistake.

He paused, and unconsciously took two steps back. Seeing so many palace people guarding here, he suddenly felt bad.

"Where's your wife?"

Ruotong answered honestly, "Your Majesty said that His Majesty has been busy for many days, so she specially prepared drinks inside to drink with His Majesty."

After hearing this, not only did the man's face not show the joy that he should have, but he could even faintly see some indescribable emotions from it.

He rolled his throat and reconfirmed, "You mean, there is alcohol in Shengning Palace now?"

He actually hoped to hear a negative answer from Ruotong's mouth, but it was counterproductive. He stroked his forehead, took a deep breath, and then walked in slowly.

Stepping into the door of the main hall of Shengning Palace, he glanced over and saw the woman sitting on the couch.

If one ignores the blush on her face due to alcohol, she should be no different from ordinary people at this moment.

He weighed the wine jar, but saw that there was only a little bit left in it, not even half a glass, and she drank up the rest.
