The empress dowager was not used to such intimacy, she pulled her hand back hard, with an awkward expression on her face.
The little emperor seemed to be disgusted with not understanding her, and rushed forward, "Grandma Huang, with you, my harem doesn’t need a queen at all. The queen doesn’t really care about me. So I’m really not in a hurry. , You are old and slowly looking, pick a three-year-old me who is just in my early twenties and I am still young."
"Furthermore, I really choose a queen to take charge of the harem. Think about it in the future, if Croton Red Bean wants to enter and leave the harem to accompany you, I am afraid it is not as convenient as before. Others can love the two beans like you and treat them as themselves. People let them use the palace as their back garden?"
"Also, if the queen has another heir in the future, it is very likely that he will be the prince's candidate. If he bullies the Croton Red Bean, what can you do with him? How wrong is the Croton Red Bean? You shouldn't be heartbroken?"
The empress dowager was so stupid that she looked at the young man in silence, wondering where his face said such words.
'The queen gave birth to an heir', what is this? Dare to love the queen's heir is not his son, is it the same as an outsider
Before the emperor dowager, he put an unnecessarily eye-dropped figure on the eyedrops, and the little emperor left with satisfaction.
The empress dowager was left sitting on the soft couch in silence for a long time, but at last she couldn't laugh.
The old mother couldn't suppress her smile, "After the emperor rebelled, there are so many tricks." She could say anything.
"It's fortunate that his emperor uncle has taught him so carefully over the years, and he hasn't learned much else, but he has learned the essence of his shameless emperor."
"In the past, I saw the emperor acting like a baby with the princess and Mrs. Liu. Now the emperor can show this face in front of the queen mother. It doesn't mean that he treats the queen mother as a close person from the bottom of his heart. The queen mother should be happy. The emperor can already understand you. Hard work and kindness."
"Huh, what does the Aijia want him to experience? When his uncle was sixteen years old, he had already established the court so that no one would dare to underestimate him. You look at him again, at the same age, he is still acting like a baby and he hasn't grown up. How can you make people feel relieved?" The Queen Mother frowned and said.
The old mother held back a smile, and replied respectfully, "So the emperor needs the queen dowager to watch from time to time, so that he can beg the dowager to come."
"Yeah." The Queen Mother coughed slightly and relaxed and reclined on the soft couch. "You will draw up a list of the noble ladies in Beijing these days. In April, we will host a flower-seeing banquet at the house of mourning and invite people into the palace. Come, Aijia take a look."
"Yes, the old slave must have done it properly."
The emperor left, and the Hall of Yangxin was quiet.
The old mother heated up the charcoal fire in the furnace in the temple, and looked back at the old woman who closed her eyes and took a nap.
He still has dazzling silver hair, but his face is unexpectedly peaceful and kind, and there is no bitterness and sharpness between his eyebrows.
Everything is getting better and better.
Comforting.
At this time, the little emperor who had left the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart, ran into General Qin, who was slowly approaching, at the entrance of the imperial garden.
Although he is over sixty years old, the man's powerful aura developed over decades as a general has not diminished. Walking from a distance can make people standing around feel the pressure on his face.
It's breathless.
The little emperor squinted his eyes, standing still waiting for the man to approach, "Old Qin is entering the palace at this time, but is there something important?"
"On the first day of today, as a veteran, I specially came to meet the emperor and the empress dowager to congratulate the New Year."
Feng Mohan pursed his lips, this old guy really didn't play the cards according to the card, and he couldn't pick up the response he had planned.
Isn’t it always a fake public for private benefit, and just follow him and the emperor's uncle to the Hall of Cultivation on the basis of an official report
Did you change your job today
Qin Xiao folded his hands in front of him, standing upright, calmly accepting the emperor's eye.
With his eyes facing each other, the little emperor showed his sharp edge to the old general's concealment, which was inferior to him.
"I just came out of the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart, the Queen Mother has already stopped this time, and Mrs. Qin doesn't have to pass. I have also received your congratulations, Mrs. Qin, please come back if nothing has happened."
"I heard that the emperor was worried about some of the courtiers' recent troubles. Although the power of the Nanling King can keep the court temporarily calm, once the prince leaves the court, the emperor's own power alone cannot hold back the veterans of the court." Qin Xiao said and deeds. Calmly, looking at the emperor lightly.
"What's the answer to Mr. Qin's words?"
"If the veterans of the three dynasties who have always maintained neutrality can be brought to the emperor's camp, those courtiers who regard themselves as veterans will converge three points in front of the emperor."
Feng Mohan's eyes darkened a bit, "Lao Yuan, the veteran of the three dynasties of the cabinet, and even the emperor's uncle failed to tell him to join the camp. I am afraid that he will not be in the eyes of Yuan Lao."
Qin Xiao smiled, "The minister just happened to have some friendship with Yuan Lao." After he said, the conversation turned, "Today's New Year is not going to talk about official affairs, and the family banquet in the palace should be held in two hours. The emperor should be in the Hall of Nourishment. Shall we eat? The minister will not bother you."
"... At the family banquet, I will accompany the empress dowager to a meal. There is only one myself in the old mansion of Qin, so why not spend the New Year together with me in the palace."
"So, the old minister is disrespectful, thank you the emperor for inviting me sincerely."
Feng Mohan's steel teeth are about to be crushed.
Who invited you so sincerely? Speaking of being shameless and shameless, he couldn't beat General Qin on his horse!
Grandma beat his grandma in front of him! When he turned around, he would definitely look for a chance to put eye drops in front of Grandma Huang, and let Grandma Huang scold him for how decent he was!
Farewell, Qin Xiao turned and walked slowly away from the palace.
Whether he is thick-skinned or shameless, if he doesn't fight for it, he can only die with regret in this life.
Now that he has made up his mind, there is nothing he dared to do.
He doesn't feel that he is suffering, but he knows how suffering Ah Man is.
In the next night, the New Year’s banquet was held in the Hall of Yangxin on time. At the same time, the New Year’s banquet in Xinghua Village officially started.
Around the big round table in the kitchen room, people were sitting full.
Drinking orders, laughing and talking loudly, the whole compound is full of joy and excitement.
Except for the Liu Family Courtyard, the excitement of the entire Xinghua Village is not inferior.
Laughter can be heard everywhere.
Even one or two dog barks from the house can make anyone who hears it smile.
There is a strong flavor of the year in the air.
A few days later, An Cai walked into Liu Jinfu's house as a bachelor. No one knew what he had talked about. When An Cai left, his triangular eyes were slightly curved, like a smile.
When the villagers went to the village chief’s house to inquire, news of the Xiapo village's desire to dig mud in their fields soon spread throughout the village.
Everyone thought it was a joke, but no one made an unpleasant sound, just as Mr. Liu thought.
On the other side, Liu Zhiqiu was also busy, and he hurriedly set a date, preparing to take the two backers who could support him to investigate the few villages he bought, and put his plan on the agenda.
