Chapter 73

That night, Qi Sheng did not leave the city wall. I followed him around all the gates, and then I wrapped his cloak and hid in the north gate tower. Just as I was about to take a nap, Xie Yi came over and even brought me a quilt and pillow.

I was so moved that I almost cried, and for a while, I couldn't take any revenge. I even boasted that she was a good girl. Then I took off my armor and got into the quilt. I fell asleep as soon as my head touched the pillow.

When I slept until midnight, there was one more person beside me.

I fell into a daze, and subconsciously shrank to the side to make room for him, and muttered, "Are you okay?"

I heard Qi Sheng respond in a low voice, then grabbed me into his arms and hugged me tightly, and said in a low voice, "Go to sleep, there is still a tough battle to fight tomorrow."

I was really sleepy, and immediately fell asleep.

The battle on the second day was indeed more intense. After only one morning, the Beimo people had already launched three charges. Qi Sheng himself stood behind the battlements with a bow and arrow, and this suppressed the Beimo people's charge.

After noon, after Bei Mo's last charge, the city wall suddenly became quiet. The Beimo soldiers stepped back in an organized manner, and then a cart was slowly pushed forward from behind the Beimo Army formation.

I heard that there was no movement from the city, and I felt strange, so I looked down from behind Qi Sheng, and saw a wooden cross on top of the car. There was a man tied with five flowers on it. .

I couldn't believe my eyes, I rubbed it vigorously, pointed at the woman in white on the wooden stand, and stammered and asked Qi Sheng, "Is that the Jiang family?"

Qi Sheng's face was calm, he couldn't even tell whether he was happy or angry, he just nodded, "It's like."

How did the Jiang Sect come to the battlefield? How did she end up in the hands of Bei Mo people again? How did it end up in such a situation? I opened and closed my mouth several times, and finally I could only sigh: "She... why is she still wearing white?"

Qi Sheng's calm face finally had a fissure, twisted a bit, and replied, "I don't know either."

Another horse came out of the Beimo Army formation under the city and circled in front of Jiang's car. Then the general on the horse looked at Qi Sheng, pointed his whip at Jiang's, and asked loudly, "Nanman Sub-Emperor, do you recognize this woman?"

No one answered on the walls.

The general laughed and shouted again, "Your queen has come from a thousand miles to find you. If you don't dare to recognize her, I will reward her to my subordinates!"

As soon as these words came out, not to mention the soldiers guarding the city, I was even dumbfounded.

Qi Sheng sneered and replied in a loud voice, "You guys didn't know where to find a woman, but you dare to say that she is my queen. It's ridiculous."

The Bei Mo general was stunned for a moment, patted his horse back to the car, leaned over and lifted Jiang Shi's chin to show Qi Sheng, hehe smiled and said, "She herself said that she is your queen, and she is not interested in the affairs of your palace. It's all very clear. You can look carefully, don't deny your husband and wife because you are afraid of hurting your face. If she is really your queen, I will give her back to you. If she is lying, then I'm going to use her as a prostitute."

Although I don't know if it's really Jiang's own false claim to the queen, but this Beimo person really has no good intentions. No matter how Qi Sheng answers, this will be a great humiliation.

Qi Sheng pursed his lips and said nothing, but stretched out his hand to Li Hong beside him. Li Hong hesitated for a moment and handed a strong bow to him.

The Jiang Clan under the city has been silent, and has not said a word until now, but silently raised his head and looked at Qi Sheng.

Qi Sheng drew his bow and arrow and aimed at the city, but he was going to shoot Jiang Shi on the spot.

In a hurry, I hurriedly stretched out my hand to hold Qi Sheng's hand, and shook my head slightly: "It won't work, but it seems that we have a guilty conscience. Shooting a weak woman on the spot will also damage morale."

Qi Sheng turned to look at me inquiringly.

I took a deep breath, then put my hands on the battlements and jumped up, trying to raise my voice as high as I could, yelling at my throat, "Shameless people are full of nonsense! My queen is clearly here, yet you dare to look for it. It's shameless for people to come and pretend!"

After he finished speaking, he took off his helmet and tugged at the straps of his hair, letting the blue silk pour down his head. With this voice, this hair, and this appearance, who can't tell that I'm a woman is blind!

Everyone's eyes were focused on me, and there was silence on the walls and under the walls.

I wonder if they do not believe that I am a woman, or do they not believe that I am the Queen Zhang Pengpeng? If you don't believe that I am a woman, I will take off the soft armor outside and stand on the mound, and let them see Zhang's graceful figure. Although I'm wearing thick clothes at the moment, it's definitely the place to be warped, and the place to be thin.

Thinking like this, my hand touched the buckle of the armor. Who knew that just as soon as I moved, Qi Sheng seemed to see through my mind, his hand was already covered, and he pulled me into his arms and lowered Angrily said: "Don't fool around!"

The general Bei Mo at the bottom of the city was also a little surprised, and he moved his horse and took a few steps forward, looked up at me, then looked at Qi Sheng, and asked, "Emperor Barbarian, you are not afraid of losing face, so you found a maid. Are you going to pretend to be the queen?"

Qi Sheng wrapped his arms around my waist and didn't answer.

But I was the least timid and the one who made jokes, so I made a loud "bah" and shouted: "Open your dog's eyes and see clearly, and see if this palace is the Queen of Daxia. I know that the emperor favored only one of Ben Gong, and only two children were born to Ben Gong. Look back at the one you have in your hands, and even that small body can give birth to two children in three years? The thatched northern desert tartar will believe that she is the queen! He even tied a weak woman to the front of the two armies, oh yo, you are thick-skinned, I used to wonder why the walls of your Pingning City are so thick Well, it turned out to be built according to your face!"

As soon as these words fell, there was a burst of laughter on the city wall.

The Bei Mo general under the city's face changed a bit, but he calmed down again, and countered loudly: "You woman is sharp and rude in words and deeds, where is the demeanor of a queen of a country, it is obviously a fake!"

I sneered, broke Qi Sheng's arm, pointed to the guards behind the city guards, and said aloud: "Ask the Daxia man on the city wall, who doesn't know that my Zhang is the guardian of the country? General Zhang Sheng's direct granddaughter, my grandfather swept the north of the Yangtze River in those days, killing your Tartarians with fear. My father was the minister of military affairs at the time, my uncle guarded Jingyang for 17 years, and all my uncles and brothers were in the army. Hero, I'm a stalwart girl, and it's no problem to go into battle to kill the enemy, why do you want to imitate those little girls?"

My voice was already high, but this time I let it go, and when the wind blew, it spread far and wide. Before the lingering sound fell, there was already a cheering sound on the city wall.

Amidst the cheers, I gave Qi Sheng a sidelong glance and asked with a smile, "Do you now know the benefits of the Yue family's great power?"

Qi Sheng let out a low laugh and was talking to him, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he suddenly reached out and grabbed me. I was completely defenseless, and was pulled by him and smashed into his arms. Between the sparks of lightning, an arrow with a carved feather rubbed my shoulder. Immediately afterwards, Li Hong, who had been standing beside him, was heard screaming: "Be careful, Your Majesty!"

I was shocked, and before I could react, Qi Sheng turned around and hugged me all in his arms. Going over his shoulder, I watched helplessly as the second eagle feathered arrow came with a gust of wind and shot heavily into Qi Sheng's vest...

Chain arrows! The first arrow shoots me, it is false, the second arrow shoots Qi Sheng, it is true.

If Qi Sheng could push me away when the first arrow came, instead of pulling me into his arms, he might not be able to dodge the second arrow, but when his hand grabbed my arm, He pulled me into his arms without hesitation.

Qi Sheng can't die, absolutely can't die at this time!

There was a moment of silence in my ears, but the next second it exploded suddenly, and all kinds of voices swarmed. He Bingze, Li Hong and others all rushed over, and some stood up to block forward, in case of another cold arrow.

Li Hong exclaimed: "Your Majesty!"

I firmly supported Qi Sheng's body, snapped the arrow on his back and inserted it in front of me, and said in a cold and calm voice, "The one who hit the arrow is the queen, call the queen!"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, but He Bing was the first to react, and he hurriedly raised his voice and shouted loudly: "Queen Empress, Empress Empress! Empress Empress has been hit by an arrow!"

One step behind the city, when he shouted "Emperor Nanmanzi was shot by an arrow", he was drowned in the cries of Nanxia soldiers, "The Tartar is shameless, the secret arrow wounded people, and the queen was wounded by the arrow! Kill! Kill all these Tartars! Avenge the Empress!"

The horn of the Beimo people charging under the city sounded, and He Bing led his troops to fight back, and another round of defending the city began.

The guards covered me and Qi Sheng and retreated into the tower, and the accompanying imperial physicians came around and cut off Qi Sheng's armor to treat the wound. I sat there staring blankly, feeling a little cold on my hands and feet.

Qi Sheng's injury was in the vital part of his back, so he could only crawl on the couch, but he was very determined, and he was still conscious at this moment, explaining: "The news of my injury must not be leaked, Li Hong wore me When the armor goes out and sits in town, it must last for two more days, and the reinforcements will definitely arrive!"

Li Hong nodded heavily, quickly put on the armor that Qi Sheng had just taken off, kowtowed to Qi Sheng while holding the helmet, and turned around to go out first.

Qi Sheng confessed a few more words to the other generals, and when they were almost gone, he asked the imperial doctor in a low voice, "How is the injury?"

Several imperial physicians looked at each other, but no one dared to speak.

"Tell me, I want the truth."

The eldest of them said in a trembling voice, "The arrow is rubbing against the pulse of the heart. It will be a little dangerous when the arrow is drawn. If the emperor can endure it, it will be fine."

Qi Sheng's face was calm, and he said slowly, "You all step back first, and choose someone with steady hands to draw arrows for me."

Several imperial physicians carefully retreated to a distance.

Qi Sheng turned to look at me again: "Empress come here, I have something to tell you."

I went up and sat down beside him. He looked at me and whispered, "I'm afraid you'll get your wish this time."

I felt a pain in my heart, but I gritted my teeth and whispered, "Don't worry, you won't die so easily."

Qi Sheng was stunned for a moment, looked at me quietly, sighed lowly after a while, and said, "If I die, you can ask Li Hongxian to pretend to be me. You can come. When the time comes, he will protect you and retreat to Jingyang, and then recall Yang Yu and others, close the door tightly to prevent the Tartars from counterattack. Then keep the mourning secret, leave the fifth and He Liangchen to guard Jingyang, take Yang Yu and He Bing will return to Shengdu, and Fu Hao'er will be enthroned, do you hear it clearly?"

I just felt that my eyes were extremely dry, so I closed my eyes hard and didn't speak.

Qi Sheng's voice weakened, he stopped, and then said: "Old Jiu must be killed, otherwise Hao'er won't be able to sit still, don't be soft-hearted."

I nodded and said bitterly, "I know."

Qi Sheng smiled faintly again, "Go down and ask them to draw arrows."

I didn't move the place, I just called the imperial physicians over, then I held Qi Sheng's hand tightly, and said calmly, "I'm here to accompany you."

A trace of surprise flashed in Qi Sheng's eyes, and then he was relieved, "Okay."

The imperial physicians prepared something to stop the bleeding. Someone put ginseng slices in Qi Sheng's mouth. The eldest physician gently grabbed the broken arrow left on Qi Sheng's back and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, The humble post will draw arrows for the emperor."

"Wait a minute," Qi Sheng said suddenly. He raised his eyes to look at me again, and slowly loosened his frown from the pain, with a faint smile on his face, "Come here, I still have something to tell you."

I didn't think much, I bent down and put my ear to his mouth, and I heard him whisper, "Pengpeng, I love you."

His lips brushed lightly over my ear, and I stood up abruptly and looked at him in astonishment.

He smiled lightly and said to the imperial doctor on the other side, "Go ahead."

The imperial doctor didn't answer, but his hand suddenly pulled out the broken arrow, blood rushed out like an arrow, Qi Sheng let out a muffled sound, and his body bounced up like a reflex. Silent.

All of my senses seemed to have lost their function all of a sudden, and there was only blood in front of me. I don't know how long it took before I heard someone whispering in my ear: "Niangniang, Niangniang, the emperor is fine, the emperor has held out."

My heart was relieved, but a dazzling blackness hit me. Before I passed out, only a year flashed in my mind: I wipe, I am so useless!

It doesn't matter that he fainted, it was even later than Qi Sheng woke up. When I opened my eyes, I found that the place I was lying on had changed. Qi Sheng was lying on the side and looked at me, "Awake?"

I sat up abruptly and asked anxiously, "What time is it now?"

Qi Sheng didn't seem to be lying comfortably. He frowned and changed his posture. After lying down again, he replied, "The fifth is already back."

Zhao Wang has returned? Does that mean the siege of Ping Ning has been resolved? Only then did I feel completely relieved, I fell on the bed with a bang, and sighed, "That's great!"

Qi Sheng smiled lowly.

I turned my head to look at him, and saw that although his face was pale, he was in good spirits, so I asked carefully, "You said something before you drew the arrow, is it true?"

Qi Sheng looked at me and asked, "What do you think?"

I moved to him while the iron was still hot, got close to his face, and said with a smile, "I think it's true that people are good at their words when they are about to die. I guess they are a bit sincere."

Qi Sheng was suddenly annoyed, raised his hand and pushed me away, and said proudly, "The wound was so painful at the time, I forgot what I said at that time."

I leaned closer again with a smile on my face and said, "I remember, you said you loved me."

Qi Sheng looked at me disdainfully and corrected: "What I said was that I am pleased with you."

"The same, the same, the meaning is the same anyway." I laughed, got up from the bed, stepped over Qi Sheng and stepped out of the bed, "I'm hungry, I have to find something to eat, do you want it?"

Qi Sheng suddenly grabbed my arm, turned his head to look at me, and asked, "How about you?"

I was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yue you, I'm happy with you, and I'm also happy with you."

Qi Sheng refused to let go, only looked at me quietly, sighed after a long while, and said softly, "You're still dealing with me, aren't you? You still refuse to trust me completely, do you?"

His eyes were too clear, I couldn't continue to smile, I thought about it, and replied: "Qi Sheng, you are the emperor, I am the queen, we will support each other and help each other in the future, isn't it good? I have decided You put my life in your hands, and you let me keep my heart on my own, so that I can be more rational and be a more competent queen. You have already won, why do you have to be so calculated? "

Qi Sheng shook his head, and said slowly, "I took my life to exchange your handshake. If there is only one competent queen, I will be at a loss. I want your life and heart."

I couldn't help laughing bitterly, "You think this way now, but you won't think so if you can. If I give you your heart, you won't be able to be a queen, just like the previous Zhang family couldn't be your crown princess. "

Qi Sheng's hand froze slightly, and I took the opportunity to pull out my arm, but before he reached the door, he heard Qi Sheng whispering from behind: "You always think I was too ruthless to the former Zhang, right? ?"

I was startled, stopped, and slowly turned around.

"But if I said that I liked that Zhang before, would you believe it?" Qi Sheng didn't look at me, just put his eyes on the empty space, and said in a sullen voice: "My childhood sweetheart, I have no guesses, although she is charming and reckless, However, she is also frank and beautiful. They are all young boys and girls, so how can she not be tempted? But the Zhang family is too powerful, and there is no reward for it. In the court, there are many ways to make a woman infertile, but I can't bear to tell her that after her family is defeated, she will end up without a child, so I can only stay away from her and keep her cold. But she doesn't understand , she only loves me, but she never understands me. Slowly, that little love fades away, no more... "

For some reason, I knew that what he said at the moment about Mrs Zhang had nothing to do with me, but my heart was extremely sour, as if I could spit bitterness out of my mouth.

I shook my head vigorously and interrupted his words: "Let's be the queen. Through this northern expedition, the Zhang family's military power will be gradually dissipated, and I will tell them to be rich, and I will go back and make you the queen seriously. "

After speaking, without waiting for Qi Sheng to speak, he strode out.

King Zhao was squatting under the porch when he heard the movement and stood up to look at me. He stamped his feet and greeted me with a smile: "Sister Huang, long time no see."

I nodded, walked over to look at him, and said with a smile: "You and Qi Sheng are really good brothers, he even dared to put all his life in your hands, and you didn't live up to him. There is some truth to what I said, I can't see through the truth, I am ashamed, ashamed, but my eyelids are shallow."

Zhao Wang put his hands on his sleeves and smiled embarrassingly: "If it's not that the emperor is a very affectionate person, the emperor's sister-in-law will always understand in the future."

I smiled, changed the subject, and asked, "How's the battle going?"

King Zhao's eyes widened and he looked at me with pretended astonishment, "Sister Huang, you really don't know? The emperor asked his younger brother to lead the troops out to intercept the reinforcements from the Tartars to rescue Shangjing, and now the reinforcements have been wiped out for us. , Shangjing was not rescued by soldiers, I guess Yang Yu will soon be beaten down, right?"

I was stunned all of a sudden, as soon as the capital was broken, doesn't that mean that Bei Mo has been destroyed

In early December, news came from Yang Yu that the Northern Expedition Army had broken through Shangjing, and 2,000 royal family members, including the Emperor of Tartar, the Empress Dowager, and the Concubine, were captured.

Qi Sheng wanted to go to Beijing in person, but unfortunately the weather was so cold that it was inconvenient to travel. He had an arrow wound on his body that had not healed, so he was delayed. He only ordered Yang Yu to leave someone to guard the capital and personally escort the Beimo royal family to the south.

Inside Pingning City, I casually flipped through the memorials sent from various places, and couldn't help sighing.

Qi Sheng's body hasn't recovered yet, and he has always been a little lazy. He was reclining on the soft couch with his fox fur covered. He heard the sound and made a soft "um", and asked, "What's wrong?"

I looked back at him and sighed, "These icy people, especially those delicate concubines and princesses, don't know how much they have to suffer! It's time to ask Yang Yu to come back after the new year."

Qi Sheng sneered and said without opening his eyes: "My soldiers in Jiangnan can endure this cold, how can these Tartars who grow up here can't bear it. Don't worry, they won't freeze to death. "

I shook my head and sighed that Qi Sheng was too ruthless, and couldn't help but ask: "You only dare to use the fifth, how dare you use Yang Yu? Isn't he half of Bei Mo blood? ?"

Qi Sheng looked up at me and replied, "That's because you don't know his background."

When he said this, he suddenly aroused my gossip. I guess even Lu Li didn't know about this kind of secret. If I knew about it, I would definitely shock her when I went back. I walked to the soft couch, stretched out my hand and pushed Qi Sheng to lean inside, sat up myself, put my feet in his fox fur to warm it, and asked excitedly, "Tell me, tell me, in the end. what's going on?"

Qi Sheng smiled, hooked his finger at me, waited for me to sit on his side, and then said to me: "This matter is very secret, Yang Yu's mother Xu is from Jiangbei, and the Tartars invaded south during the Shengyuan year. When the Xu family was living in Yuzhou, she lost her life in the northern desert pioneer Cui Yan, and Yang Yu was born there. Mai Shuai had an old relationship with the Xu family, and he married her in pity for what happened to her, but it was only in the name of a husband and wife. After he became aware of his life experience, he went to Beijing to look for Cui Yan. Only then did Cui Yan know that the Xu family had given birth to a son. To say that Cui Yan also had affection for the Xu family, seeing that the Xu family suffered because of himself After half a lifetime, the mother and son of the Xu family had to be brought back to Beijing. Who knew that the Cui family was reluctant to live or die, because of the special status of the Xu family and the deep entanglement with Mai Shuai, this matter somehow got to the Emperor Beimo. It was Mai Shuai back then. The leader drove Bei Mo out of Jingyang Pass, and the emperor had always held grudges, so he came forward and promised Cui Yan to take back Xu's mother and son, but secretly thought that this would lead to Mai Shuai..."

I was so thrilled that I couldn't help but ask, "What happened later?"

Qi Sheng squinted his eyes slightly, and replied lightly: "Later Xu died, and Mai Shuai was seriously injured to save Yang Yu and almost died in Beimo. Only then did Cui Yan know that he was being used, and he saw Xu died again. , he also committed suicide with his sword in remorse. Overnight, Yang Yu's parents lost their lives, and his adoptive father was seriously injured, all of which were given by Beimo, why did I dare not use him to attack Beimo?"

I was speechless for a long time, and after a long while, I sighed and said, "If you ask what love is in the world, it's a promise of life and death."

Qi Sheng was stunned for a moment, then glanced at me in surprise, then lay down on the soft couch again, squinting and dozing off.

Yang Yu was rushing day and night, but he still couldn't make it to Pingning City to offer prisoners a few years ago. By the time he arrived, it was already the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Unexpectedly, he even tied Yang Yan with him, and the father and son knelt in front of Qi Sheng to plead guilty.

It turned out that after the loot king assassinated Qi Sheng with a dead soldier, Qi Sheng pretended to be injured and led the troops to station in Pingning. While attracting the troops of Beimo, he ordered King Zhao to secretly take the army out of Pingning City and ambush all parts of Beimo for rescue. The soldiers and horses in Beijing cleared the peripheral obstacles for Yang Yu.

Unexpectedly, Yang Yan later rescued the toilet king from Pingning, and after the toilet king escaped, he leaked the deployment of troops in the city of Pingning to a northern desert army. Seeing that it was too late to rescue Shangjing, the other party simply returned to fight Pingning to the death, thinking of catching Qi Sheng before Yang Yu broke through Shangjing.

Yang Yu pleaded guilty: "It's all this stubborn son who rescued King Qi Han, which revealed the truth of Pingning City and put the emperor in danger. The ministers and children are not strict, please punish the emperor."

Qi Sheng smiled and said: "General Yang's capture of Shangjing is a great achievement. Although Yang Yan was wrong, he was also deceived. Besides, there are no dangers here. General Yang, don't worry, go down first and have a good rest. Rest, we will discuss rewards and punishments when we return to Shengdu."

Yang Yu was busy kowtowing and thanking him, but Yang Yan, who was standing beside him, was kneeling in a daze, not responding. He was much thinner than the last time he broke up with me, his expression was very sluggish, and he kept his eyes down, until he left, and said in a hoarse voice: "I didn't know he would tell the Tartars about the strength of Ping Ning, otherwise, then I won't... go and save him."

After he finished speaking, he kowtowed vigorously and retreated with his father.

Although he never looked at me from beginning to end, I knew in my heart what he meant. Although he has always followed the Matou Jun, he never thought of following him to betray the country and cooperate with the enemy. If he knew this would be the result, he would not have abandoned me that day.

Qi Sheng turned around, looked at me meaningfully, and asked, "You said that if I didn't kill Yang Yan, and only sentenced him to 3,000 li, would Yang Yu be very grateful to me?"

I don't think he cares whether Yang Yu is grateful to Qi Sheng or not. What Qi Sheng cares about is whether I will be grateful to him.

I smiled and replied, "I'm grateful, I'm very grateful, but after all, I made a big mistake. Three thousand miles is a bit near, why not add another two thousand miles!"

In February, Qi Sheng announced the victory of the Northern Expedition, and returned from Pingning with 2,000 members of the Beimo royal family and countless gold and silver jewelry. Because there were so many people and there was no need to hurry, the road was a little slow. By the time we arrived in Taixing, it was already March. After resting in Taixing for two days, Qi Sheng and I got on the dragon boat when we crossed the river, and we were escorted by the Fuping Navy ship to cross the river.

The wind on the river was still a little cool, and it was a bit stinging on the face. Looking at the vast river water, I didn't feel a little trance. That year, I also crossed the river with Qi Sheng on the same boat, but that time it was from Fuping to Taixing. He stood at the bow of the boat and I hid in the bilge.

Five years later, I was finally able to stand on the bow of the boat with integrity.

Just thinking about it randomly, I heard Li Hong say from behind: "The wind is strong on the river, the emperor invites the empress to return to the cabin."

I turned around and looked up and down the old acquaintance. That year, he secretly took me out of Fuping Palace, and after he led me around the Wanjiang River, he forced me into the river with a sword. At that time, I didn't know that he would be Qi Sheng's confidant, and later he served Qi Sheng as the captain of the personal guard.

I kept looking at this guard Li with my eyelids raised. After a long time, his face became a little embarrassed. He lowered his eyes and stepped back half a step with his hand on the sword. His subconscious action reminded me. I, whether I am a man or a woman, should repay virtue with virtue, repay grievance with straightness, and wantonly revenge.

I took two steps forward and unhurriedly pulled out the sword from his waist, looked at the sharp blade, and asked him, "Li Shiwei's swordsmanship is also good, right?"

Li Hong raised his eyes to look at me, "Niangniang..."

I put the tip of the sword against his chest and asked with a smile, "Can you give me some advice? If you just want to pierce people's flesh, but don't hurt people's heart, how to master this power?"

Li Hong had a bitter face and was speechless.

I handed the tip of the sword forward for a few minutes, and when I saw blood coming out of the end, I pulled the sword back with a smile and said, "Oh, sorry, I didn't have a good grasp of my strength for a while, Guard Li. Hurry down and find someone to bandage it."

Li Hong looked down at his chest, speechless.

I asked again, "Guardian Li, you should know water, right?"

Li Hong was silent for a while, and replied in a muffled voice: "The villain understands." After speaking, he turned around and jumped into the river.

Hey, this is also a transparent white man!

Li Hong's water is not bad. He followed the boat for more than half of the river, but he didn't fall down. When he was fished up, his lips were a little purple, and his body was trembling faintly.

The bad breath in my heart finally came out, and I felt a lot more comfortable. When Qi Sheng found out, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He tapped my forehead with his hand, and finally just smiled helplessly: "Alright, women should be careful."

After he finished speaking, he instructed Freehand to send Jiang Shui to Li Hong.

The army entered Shengdu City on March 26. The entire Shengdu City was boiling, and the excitement at that time could no longer be described in words. Southern Xia and Northern Desert have been confronted for more than 300 years. During this period, you have fought me and I have fought you. There have been numerous big and small battles. There have been powerful kings in both countries, and both have tried to dominate the world, but no one has ever been able to achieve it.

And now, Qi Sheng has done it.

The Empress Dowager burst into tears, folded her hands and bowed to the sky, crying: "Bless the ancestors and sects, let me Daxia be able to rule the world, the Emperor Chengzu's will has been fulfilled, and this palace can finally go to see him at ease. ."

After praying to the sky, the old lady turned around and hugged me again, "child, it's hard for you, you are a good person."

I shed a few tears in a hurry, and pretended to wipe the corners of my eyes with a handkerchief.

Qi Wei and Qi Hao, sister and brother, had not seen me for more than half a year, and they were a little unfamiliar. They stood there looking at me for a long time, and then they threw themselves into my arms. Holding their two soft little bodies, I was crying sincerely.

Qi Sheng has been busy in the previous dynasty for several days, worshipping the heavens and ancestors, and he has to be rewarded for his merits and deeds. Of course, no matter how busy he was, he never forgot to punish the guilty.

Yang Yan was sentenced to be detained for 5,000 miles and sent directly to Mobei to fight.

Matou Jun first assassinated the emperor, and then secretly colluded with the enemy. It should have been a capital crime. The Empress Dowager Song went to the Daming Palace to cry, and then took out the last decree left by the late emperor that Qi Sheng was not allowed to hurt his siblings. This can be regarded as saving the life of the latrine gentleman, but he was cut off from the title, abolished as a commoner and exiled to Lingnan.

On the contrary, the Zhang family is the most worry-free, with no merits and no faults, no rewards and no punishments. However, many new nobles have emerged in the Northern Expedition Army this time, and the military power of the major families has been dispersed again, and the Zhang family is no exception.

Zhang Fang went to the palace to meet me, and after a long discussion, he finally decided to correct the future development direction of the Zhang family.

The excitement lasted for two months before it stopped, and the government affairs of the DPRK and China slowly got on the right track. Although Qi Sheng was still busy, he could finally find time to return to the harem to take a breath.

Who knew that something happened suddenly in the harem at this time.

The cause of things is simple. Wang Zhaorong went to visit Concubine Chen Shu, and felt a little cold when passing through the imperial garden, so she asked the little palace maid beside her to go back and get the cloak. I didn't want the little palace maid to run in a hurry, and one accidentally bumped into Concubine Huang Xian who was viewing chrysanthemums in the imperial garden.

This person, Mrs. Wang, looked a little dull on weekdays, but among these palace concubines, he was the most eye-catching to Qi Sheng, and he used to sleep more often than others.

Huang Shi had always looked at her unpleasantly. Seeing that the palace maid beside her bumped into her hand, she asked someone to slap the palace maid in the face without saying a word.

Wang Shi got the letter and rushed over, not wanting to ask Huang Shi to slap her in the face like this, so she stepped forward to stand in front of the palace maid, and shouted: "I see who dares to do it!"

Although Wang's position is lower than Huang's, she is a Zhaorong after all, how dare the maids beside Huang's beat her, Ruhong's momentum suddenly collapsed, and she withdraws her arm timidly.

Seeing this, Mrs. Huang became even more angry. While sighing that the people around her were unreliable, she rolled up her sleeves and went up.

When Wang Shi stopped, Huang Shi's slap did not land on the palace maid's face, but hit her on the body. Wang shi was only stunned for a moment, then decisively chose to fight back in self-defense.

Although the concubines looked noble and elegant, they were also women. Since it is a woman, the fights are almost the same, basically like a teacher taught them, kicking, hitting, pinching, grabbing, tearing, and scratching.

You slap me, I'll slap you back, then you slap me again, and I'll slap me back... It's for TV, not practical.

The mantra that has been tested in practice is: with a hair in hand, it can be whipped or beaten.

The Huang family and the Wang family completely lost the dignity of the palace concubine, and they fought very lively. The maids all around rushed forward to pull it. A maid in Wang's palace somehow pulled Huang's hand. When Huang's eyes rolled, she fainted.

All of a sudden, everyone was terrified.

Fortunately, Mrs. Wang was calmer, and she was busy instructing the maids to take Mrs. Huang to the nearest Concubine Chen Shu, and then sent someone to invite the queen and the imperial doctor.

When I was invited over, Mrs. Chen, with her clouded temples scattered and her face pale, was standing outside the hall, and when she saw me passing by, she immediately knelt down for me, and wept: "My concubine is wrong, and I am willing to be punished by the empress. "

I gave her a sideways glance, ignored her, and stepped into the hall.

Imperial Physician Song was taking the pulse of the unconscious Huang Shi, but his expression was a little flustered. I took a closer look, well, there was even a bead of sweat on his forehead.

I asked, "How is it?"

Song Taiyi didn't answer, got up and knelt down tremblingly, and then stammered: "Empress Empress, this, this, this..."

I was a little puzzled: "What's the matter? Let me tell you something."

Imperial Physician Song lowered his head and continued to stutter: "I also asked the Empress and Empress to screen others out."

Although I felt a little strange, I did as he said. After Concubine Chen Shu and the others left the hall, they heard Imperial Physician Song say nervously, "Concubine Xian's body is fine."

I breathed a sigh of relief, as long as I didn't break anyone.

Imperial Physician Song glanced at me carefully, and continued: "She, she, she is more than three months pregnant."

I was stunned for a moment, and then I realized what he meant, and immediately said, "It's a good thing!"

The expression on Song Taiyi's face was very strange. He secretly glanced around, then quietly reached out a hand and gestured: "More than three months."

It's been more than three months? That's even better, the fetus is already stable, and it's not easy for anything to happen. It's no wonder that the Huang family has been in bad health all the time. It turned out to be there, but now that I think about it, I have been hiding it. To say that the woman in this harem is really complicated, and even having a child is like a thief.

However, why do I feel that something is wrong!

Dr. Song Tai was afraid that I would not know how to count, so he pointedly pointed his three fingers in front of me and emphasized, "It's been more than three months, three..."

With a "boom" in my head, I immediately understood the crux of the matter.

It was less than two months after the emperor returned to the palace, but the concubine was more than three months pregnant... This is quite similar to the legend of "the husband went on an expedition for 20 years, and his son returned home for 18 years".

The key question is... Who the hell did this

Imperial Doctor Song and I looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes, speechless.

How to do? This matter has to be rushed in the modern society, and it is a big deal to get divorced. If a lawyer is hired, maybe Huang's can ask for some alimony from Qi Sheng!

But now it is not modern. According to the history books, it is the old society of feudal and centralized power. If you dare to put a cuckold on the emperor, the emperor can make you die with a household registration book and an address book!

I thought about it for a long time, but I still felt that I couldn't handle this alone, so I asked people to watch the Huang family, Wang family, Chen family and the maids beside them, and I took the Song imperial doctor directly to the empress dowager. There.

The Empress Dowager was stunned when she heard this, and then her expression changed. However, Jiang was still old and hot. She first asked me to use the fight to ground both Huang and Wang, and then secretly sent a confidant to interrogate Huang's pregnancy.

Soon Huang's personal maid was recruited, and the adulterer turned out to be a young imperial doctor in the imperial hospital.

The Huang family was in bad health a while ago, and she called the imperial doctor to check her pulse every three days. Everyone didn't take it seriously. Who knew that she actually called the imperial doctor to bed...

I was dumbfounded for a moment, and sighed that Huang's courage was really not small. Of course, the imperial doctor was even more daring, and even put the green hat on the emperor's head.

I can't hide this from Qi Sheng. I picked a time when he was in a good mood and told him about it euphemistically.

I was preparing for Qi Sheng's rage here, but he just raised his brows when he heard it, without taking his eyes away from Zhezi, he said indifferently: "The Huang family bestows the white silk, and the Wang family and the Chen family directly send it to me. Just enter the temple."

I was dumbfounded, and asked in astonishment, "It's fine for the Huang family, but what does this have to do with the Wang family and the Chen family?"

Qi Sheng looked up at me, and asked with a half-smile, "Do you think the two of them can get off the hook in this matter?"

Although I always thought this was a bit of a coincidence, I didn't expect Qi Sheng to handle things so simply and rudely, and I was a little dazed for a while.

Qi Sheng noticed it and asked me, "What's wrong?"

I smiled and covered up: "There are not many concubines in the palace. This penalty is a good one. Almost half of them were killed in battle. Next year, we will have to select some beautiful women to enter the palace."

Qi Sheng just smiled indifferently, but did not speak.

I hesitated for a while, but couldn't help but ask, "Can the Huang family not die?"

Qi Sheng was a little surprised, "You pity her?"

I shook my head, "Just say it casually, forget it, treat it as if I didn't say it."

Qi Sheng looked at me deeply for a long time, and said lightly, "Huang's family should also be sent to the temple."

After I finished speaking, I left my Xingsheng Palace and did not show up for several days.

When Lvli knew about this, he scolded me for a while, and said with hatred: "The emperor clearly intends to expel the concubines and concubines in the palace, but this is not for the goddess. This time, the emperor must have misunderstood that Niangniang has a grief for the Huang family!"

"It's not a misunderstanding, it's true." I looked at Lu Li and said calmly: "In the end, I'm actually the same as Huang and others. If there is a difference, it's just that Qi Sheng loves me now, and because of love, he pets me. It's also because I don't love it, I'm just unfeeling towards the Huang family and others. But who has ever thought about the Huang family and the others, they are also justifiably carried into this palace, why are they innocent?"

Hearing this, Lu Li was startled, and couldn't help but shout, "The Huang family doesn't follow the way of women!"

"Widowhood?" I couldn't help laughing, "Has Qi Sheng fulfilled her husband's way to them again? Could it be that they should be a widow for the rest of their lives? If it were me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to keep it."

Lu Li opened his mouth and didn't say anything for a long time, and finally he could only say: "I can't say anything about the Empress, but the emperor is right about this, it is the kindness of Empress's wife."

I lost my interest in going on, just smiled.

Lvli rolled his eyes, and suddenly asked me in a low voice, "Does the lady know about Jiang's affairs?"

I was stunned for a moment. That day, Jiang Shi was tied up in front of the two armies in the city of Pingning. Later, Qi Sheng was shot by an arrow, and I no longer cared whether she was alive or dead. After that, I never asked. In such a battlefield, a general with high martial arts will still be killed, let alone a weak woman like her.

Lvli sneered twice, and said, "The lady must have underestimated the Jiang family. She didn't die, and was later rescued by our master."

I was stunned and said, "King Zhao saved her?"

Lvli nodded, pouted his lips in disdain, and continued: "My lord, do you know how she fell into the hands of Tartar? Last year, the emperor sent her out of the palace, and I heard that he had arranged a place for her. If she is willing to be safe, she can She lived a life without worry about food and clothing. That bitch didn't give up. Seeing the emperor's driving in person, he chased Jiangbei, but he was caught by the Tartars. She was also shameless. , ask Tartar to send her to the emperor, she can persuade the emperor to retreat from the northern desert."

From the initial shock, to the calmness at the back, I finally listened with relish.

This Nima can't even be considered a novel, it's almost a legendary novel.

"Jiang's family is also very fateful, and she didn't die. When our master returned to Pingning, he rescued her in the chaos of the army."

My eyes lit up when I heard it, so I almost grabbed the melon seeds to eat, and asked without thinking, "I wipe! Will these two rekindle their old love? Can he still do it for a princess of the Jiang family?"

Lu Li slapped his thigh and shouted arrogantly: "He dares! If he dares to get involved with Jiang's again, I will carry his son and jump into the well!"

I hurriedly pushed down the hedge and persuaded: "Don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive! If you have something to discuss, it's not a good woman to throw it up and hang it!"

There was a hint of slyness in Lu Li's eyes, and he asked me, "Is it bad for your mother too?"

I didn't think much, nodded: "No, no, it's better to change to a more peaceful way."

Just as he was talking, Qi Sheng came in from the outside, and when he saw the green hedge with me, his displeased face turned even darker.

Lvli glanced at the corner of his eyes, but he threw a handkerchief and knelt beside my leg, hugged my thigh and cried aloud: "Niangniang, you have to decide for the slaves, if His Royal Highness Zhao Wang re-marries the Jiang family, the slaves are not. There is no way to live, everyone knows that Jiang Sect is unwilling to share her husband with others. The slaves have no place to go, and they ask the niece to take them in. The slaves will definitely repay the kindness and serve the niece for a lifetime. "

"Nonsense!" Qi Sheng shouted angrily and broke off Lu Li's cry, "What is his face as a royal? How can the Jiang family enter the royal family again, send off, send off!"

Lvli turned around and kowtowed to Qi Sheng, and replied readily, "The slave and maid will lead the order."

After speaking, he wiped his tears with a handkerchief and backed off.

I looked up at Qi Sheng in a daze, and asked, "Have we both been used by this girl?"

Qi Sheng's face froze, and he became angry with shame, turned around and left with a flick of his sleeves.

With Qi Sheng's imperial decree, Lvli handled things very quickly, and when he turned around, he sent someone to send the Jiang family out of the capital. King Zhao didn't react either. He was neither sad nor happy. He only sent Jiang Shi outside the city gate, and then went back to the palace to hug his son.

I felt that Qi Sheng and I were calculated by the couple together.

After a few days, the latrine gentleman has to leave. His place of exile is Lingnan, far away from Shengdu. Since then, he has left the power center. With the inconvenience of communication, Qi Sheng can finally put down his snacks.

Lingnan was poor, and the Empress Dowager Song was afraid that her son would endure hardships and poverty, so she not only posted all her private house money to the latrine gentleman, but also wished to move half of the imperial palace to Lingnan.

Before leaving, the latrine gentleman came into the palace to kowtow to the Queen Mother Song, and actually came to my palace to ask for an interview. I didn't want to see him, but after thinking about it, I asked someone to invite him into the hall, and then gave him the golden triangle he gave me.

The toilet gentleman looked down at the golden triangle, smiled lightly, and asked, "Is the lady about to give up the alliance?"

I thought for a while, then shook my head and replied, "I don't think Lingnan has a long way to go, so I want to give you some travel expenses. It's a piece of gold anyway."

The toilet-master's face froze for another moment, he lowered his eyes, and said softly: "As for the matter of peace, I am purely a trapped beast, and it is really helpless."

"I know, so I don't blame you."

The latrine gentleman looked up at me, stared at me blankly for a moment, and suddenly asked me without thinking: "If the person who married you was me, would things be different now?"

Surprised, I quickly said, "This is a joke!"

The toilet gentleman came back to his senses, stretched out his hand and slowly pushed the golden triangle back, and said in a low voice, "Since I sent it out, I won't take it back. The thing is, and the oath is also."

After speaking, he stood up, bowed his hands to me, turned around and walked out.

I looked at his back and felt that it was better to leave some leeway in life, so I called out to him again and said, "If you encounter difficulties, ask someone to send me a letter."

The latrine gentleman looked back at me, smiled, and left.

Autumn and winter come, and before you know it, the first year of Datong has arrived. Qi Sheng made Qi Hao the crown prince. In the fall, I was diagnosed with a hi pulse again. In the summer of the following year, the second prince, Qi Xiang, was born. In the summer of the same year, Li Zhaoyi asked to go out of the palace to recuperate because of his poor health, and Qi Sheng agreed.

In the spring of the third year of Datong, a courtier petitioned Qi Shengguang to draft a girl to fill the palace. Qi Sheng only ended the matter with the sentence, "This is my family matter, don't bother Aiqing."

When I saw that the nationwide beauty pageant was not successful, I thought that I would sift through the palace again. I can still pick generals from shorties, not to mention the thousands of palace ladies in this palace.

I kept the secret from Qi Sheng, and finally worked hard to jump out ten young and beautiful girls from the palace maids, and then gathered them together for training. As a result, the news was leaked for some reason, so I haven't seen enough here, Qi Sheng took these ten beauties to the maids of the famous name, and gave them to the heroes who came back from the north.

It's not the person in my own hands, it's really generous to send it!

I was so angry that I almost vomited blood, I hugged Qi Sheng's dragon robe and took a few bites in private, and then went to Daming Palace with all manner of demeanor, persuading Qi Sheng, "The harem originally exists to reproduce the emperor's heir. , the emperor is obsessed."

Qi Sheng smiled back at me and said, "I also think there are still a few children in the palace. Let's work harder."

So, in less than three months, the queen was tragically pregnant again.

Freehand was given to Li Hong by Qi Sheng, and Xiao Fu'er became a powerful maid by my side, with neat legs and feet as always.

Ordinary days always pass quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the third prince will be there.

I kept making people here, and King Zhao and Lu Li were not idle, as if they were competing with us, and the children also jumped out one by one. However, Zhao Wang never married Zhengfei again. Whenever this matter was mentioned, the Empress Dowager couldn't help but feel a little jealous. She always felt that she was indebted to King Zhao, and then asked various families to recommend suitable women.

As soon as things got to this point, Lu Li would enter the palace to see me, but they were all in time when Qi Sheng was there. She didn't say anything else, she just hugged my leg and cried and said that she missed me, and she couldn't let me go. Fortunately, the Empress Dowager intended to accept Concubine Zheng for Wang Zhao. Once the newcomer entered, she handed over the affairs of the backyard of the palace, and she would enter again. The palace came to serve me.

Qi Sheng couldn't bear it every time, so he went to the Empress Dowager the next day, and she didn't know what to say to the old lady, and the old lady would temporarily forget about Zhao Wang and concubine.

After so many times, when the Great Empress Dowager mentioned it to Zhao Wang and concubine, all the families had taken it seriously, and the girls of the right age in the family could not marry for various reasons. In the end, there was no way, Qi Sheng couldn't bear to watch King Zhao's brothers playing bachelors, so he helped the only Ruin in the palace to become the concubine.

Zhao Wangfu stopped, and Qi Sheng finally felt relieved.

But I was very upset, because the concubines in the harem began to fall in love with religion for some reason, and they saw through the world one by one.

Qi Sheng had very few concubines, and even one less a year could not last a few years. When the emperor was five years old, the only remaining concubine in the palace, Liu Li, had to devote himself to the Buddha.

I went to Concubine Liu Li to persuade me: "You're still so young, why can't you think about it? What can't you do? After all these years, you and I are the only old people in the palace. It took seven or eight days to get on the wheel. I have survived a whole night of dry days. Now the emperor is going to your place besides staying with me. Why is he making a fuss about becoming a monk? How can there be a palace in a temple? Those who eat fast and recite Buddha all day long, stay. Be a companion for me too, and I won't ask you to be a vegetarian if you have a bite of meat!"

As I talked, I couldn't help but get emotional, and my eyes were red.

I didn't think that Concubine Liu Li was more excited than I was, she hugged my thigh and cried, "Niang Niang, you should ask the concubine to go, the concubine has been worth several years to the emperor, and I have never touched it. Your Majesty, the concubines are hard to say! In the past, there were other sisters who spent the first half of the night, but now there is only one concubine left, and the concubines must be watching all night. The year of the concubine As I get older, I can't help myself after staying overnight for several days! Look at the dark circles under the eyes of the concubine, no matter how much powder you put on it, you can't cover it up!"

I was a little dumbfounded for a while, and I stared blankly at Concubine Liu Li, who was in tears, speechless. After a long while, I discussed with her: "How about I discuss with the emperor and ask him not to call you over to serve the bed?"

Concubine Liu Li, however, was reluctant to live or die, and went out to become a monk in search of death.

I saw that the palace was so empty that it didn't look like it, so I had to personally persuade Qi Sheng to draft the girl, and persuaded him with all his heart: "Why do you have to be like this? How lively Yingying and Yanyan are in the palace, I don't care about that. , why do you have to hold on to these?"

Qi Sheng just smiled and replied, "I use people's hearts to change people's hearts. If it doesn't work in one year, it's ten years. If it doesn't work in ten years, it's a lifetime."

I was helpless, "Qi Sheng, you don't understand."

"Then tell me," he said.

I opened my mouth to say something, but I didn't know what to say to him. I can tell him that as long as he is the emperor, he is my master. When my life is in his hands, how can I love him regardless of my life and death.

He doesn't understand that the foundation of love is not favor, not pain, but equality. And he is the emperor, I am the queen, and we will never be equal.

In the tenth year of Datong, the Empress Dowager finally rode a crane to the west. Qi Sheng had a very deep relationship with the imperial grandmother, and was very depressed for a while. In the second year, there were even more upright excuses for not drafting.

When I was in the thirteenth year of Datong, Qi Sheng and I were already an old husband and wife, and we even had three sons and two daughters, and we had five children. That year, Qi Sheng sifted through all the young talents of the entire dynasty, picked out some that were pleasing to the eye, and checked the eight generations of their ancestors, and only then did our eldest daughter, Princess Wei Yuan, marry off.

I discussed it with Qi Sheng and said, "Let's not give birth, will you? This is about to become a grandmother. I really don't have the face to give birth."

Qi Sheng thought about it seriously for several nights, and finally agreed to seriously consider my suggestion.

In the fourteenth year of Datong, the crown prince Qi Hao was sixteen years old, and he accepted the crown princess after thousands of choices. When choosing other concubines of the East Palace for him, I taught him: "If you like it, it doesn't matter if you marry more girls, but if you don't like other girls, then don't marry any of them, and don't delay them for a lifetime."

After all, the crown prince is still young and doesn't quite understand the beauty of beauty, so he nodded and said, "I only like Ning'er in my heart, so I don't need to marry again."

Qi Sheng looked at me thoughtfully. The next day, he invited me to visit the ancient temple in Cuishan, and asked me, "Does Pengpeng feel unhappy?"

In the cigarette-filled Buddhist hall, I answered honestly, "Happy, very happy."

It's just... Sometimes when I think that behind this kind of happiness is the life of a few women Qingdeng ancient Buddha, I feel at ease in my heart.

Qi Sheng asked, "This is the temple where the Huangs and the others became monks. They are here. Do you want to meet them?"

I was stunned for a moment, and finally shook my head, "I don't want to see you."

Qi Sheng laughed, leaned closer and said in a low voice, "It's a shame I don't want to see you. If you want to see me, I really can't conjure a few big living people for you."

I heard something in those words and looked at him blankly.

He smiled lightly, stretched out his hand to stroke my hair, and said softly: "Pengpeng, how can I bear to make you suffer from conscience, they... I'll let them go. Although I can't guarantee prosperity, I allow them to choose what they want to live. day."

He sighed and pulled me around and walked out of the temple. When he returned to the palace, he was happy again, turned around and smiled at me: "It will be twenty years, I will give you a surprise on your birthday this year."

I nodded, my heart was very happy because of what happened during the day, and I served him once that night in return, but Qi Sheng refused to accept the old man, and the next morning, he missed the morning again.

Before my birthday, Qi Sheng left the palace to go hunting in Jiangbei, and he would definitely give me a few white foxes as gifts.

I actually don't like these furs very much, but seeing that he was happy, he nodded and replied, "You said it, don't say empty words."

He nodded and smiled, mounted his horse and left.

One night half a month later, a fast horse galloped into the palace, saying that Qi Sheng was frightened by the horse while hunting and fell from the horse to his death.

My body froze, and I lost control completely, but I still had a trace of clarity in my heart, secretly thinking that this is really a special surprise!

The prince is already old, and he has helped Qi Sheng deal with court affairs for many years. Although he was saddened by the bad news, he did not panic. He took his brothers to deal with Qi Sheng's funeral in a law-abiding manner, and then ascended the throne as the emperor.

I also moved around, and finally became the queen mother.

After 20 years of guarding, I can finally sit on the seat of the queen mother, but why is there no joy in my heart, but I just want to cry loudly

Unable to cry, I just felt that my chest was blocked up.

I just solved myself. Qi Sheng and I have been together for 20 years. Even if we have a cat and a dog, we have developed feelings for such a long time, not to mention that we are a living person. It is natural to feel uncomfortable. Slow down this effort, and naturally everything will be fine.

After all, I have become a queen mother, the emperor is his own son, and there is no serious mother-in-law on it. As long as he does not betray the country and does not seize power, it is estimated that no one will dare to control me.

I just thought, I will move out of this palace when I get better, find a place with beautiful scenery and build a big garden, and raise all kinds of beauties, and it will be pleasing to watch every day.

I also thought that I am not too old now, it is when the milfs are old, even if it is to avoid endocrine disorders, I have to secretly raise a few faces.

However, this matter has to be kept secret, and it has to save face for the emperor's son.

About the future life, I think a lot, and I think well, but unfortunately my body is very unsatisfactory, and I can't get out of bed.

Qi Wei, Princess Weiyuan, has been in the palace with me for many days. Seeing that I ate, slept, slept, and ate all day, I was lying on the bed like I had no bones and refused to get up, so I called all my brothers and sisters. Qi Qi Kneeling in front of my bed, I begged bitterly: "Empress mother, I beg your condolences. If you look like this, even if the royal father in the spirit of heaven knows, it will also be sad!"

Qi Sheng's spirit in the sky? He has a fart spirit in the sky. He has been dead for more than two months, and he has no idea where he went to reincarnate.

But seeing these children kneeling on the ground and begging, I also felt distressed and said, "You all go back, I'll be fine, don't worry."

Qi Hao was the emperor, and he was the most thoughtful, so he immediately replied: "If the queen mother refuses to ask for medicine for one day, the children will not get up."

I had no choice but to compromise with them and ask them to hire a doctor for me, and then what to do.

The imperial doctor came soon, knelt on the ground and checked the pulse, but beads of sweat rolled down his head.

I was surprised and asked, "Could it be a terminal illness?"

The imperial physician trembled even more, fell to the ground and stammered, "No, no, no."

I wondered: "Then why are you shaking?"

The imperial doctor continued to stammer: "The Empress Dowager is this... hi pulse."

I was stunned for a moment, then closed my eyes and stopped for a moment, before I whispered, "You go back first, don't tell anyone about this, not even the emperor."

The imperial physician kowtowed heavily and stepped back.

I lay on the bed, only to feel bitterness in my heart and mouth. Qi Sheng walked cleanly and neatly, but left me a posthumous child. How can I tell my sons and daughters about this

The next day, King Zhao came to the palace to visit the sick. Seeing that I was still lying on the bed, he winked at me, smiled maliciously, and said, "I know how to treat this sick brother."

After hearing this, I was puzzled and asked him, "How to treat it?"

King Zhao clapped his hands at the door, and saw a man walk in outside the door. He was tall, wearing a hood and couldn't see his face clearly.

Zhao Wang gave me a laugh and said, "This person will definitely be able to cure the emperor's sister-in-law's illness, and the younger brother will retire first."

After he finished speaking, he walked around the man at the door and left, and even the hall door was closed for me.

I heard what King Zhao said inside and outside the words, is it to send a face to my newly-baked queen mother? In this day and age, he is too bold, right? Aren't you afraid that Qi Sheng would be so angry that he climbed out of the imperial tomb

The man at the door reached out and took off his hood, slowly raising his head, revealing tough and deep facial features. He grinned at me and asked in a low voice, "Pengpeng, you finally became the queen mother, but did you get your wish?"

I sat up suddenly and looked at him in astonishment, speechless.

He smiled and asked me again: "Is this a surprise?"

I sat in a daze for a long time, until the things in front of me became blurred, and then I came back to my senses and nodded: "Surprise, really surprise."

He smiled brightly.

I said again: "Qi Sheng, come and don't go indecent, I'll give you a surprise too, okay?"

Qi Sheng raised his eyebrows unexpectedly and asked, "What surprise?"

I grinned at him too, and replied, "The queen mother... she's pregnant."
