Only in this way will there be no future troubles, and even make He Heng trust and value himself more.

"Even God is helping Ben Gong, what do you compare to Ben Gong?" Qu Qing Ju turned to look at He Heng. Sure enough, seeing that he was already smiling, she glared at him and used the shape of her mouth to make a statement. After the words "drinking flowers and provoking grass", he turned his head and said to Qin Bailu again, "You were unwilling to lose to Ben Gong, and you even colluded with Princess Jing to deliberately spread rumors to damage the reputation of my Dalong courtiers. Such sinister intentions. , No wonder even God helped Ben Gong become a woman by the emperor's side, if you became the queen of my Dalong, wouldn't the world be in chaos."

"You!" Qin Bailu didn't expect Qu Qingju to say these words, she opened her mouth and was about to curse, but she was slapped in the face by Mrs. Qin next to her and beat her to the ground. .

"Shut up!" Madam Qin choked, "You disloyal and unfilial daughter, are you trying to kill our whole family?"

Apart from Madam Qin's cry, there was no sound in the entire hall. Qin Bailu covered her face and did not look at her mother. Instead, she looked at the two emperors and queens who were sitting upright, with hatred in their eyes. He pulled out the sharp silver hairpin from his hair, got up abruptly, and charged towards Qu Qingju.

"Niangniang!" Mujin, who was beside her, was so frightened that she threw halfway from behind Qu Qingju. After a crisp sound of porcelain falling to the ground, she heard a muffled sound from not far away, and then the entire hall began to quarrel.

When she looked up in confusion, she saw Qin Bailu lying on the side in embarrassment, the emperor was blocking in front of the empress, and the corner of his robe was wrinkled.

"Your Majesty, are you alright?" Qu Qing Ju stood up, looked up and down He Heng's body with a horrified expression, and then heaved a sigh of relief and said with anger, "What are you doing, there are so many people, you What are you doing in front of me!"

The entire hall was suddenly deadly silent, panicked, imprisoned Qin Bailu, and pleaded guilty.

"There are so many people in the palace, who told you to stand in front of me and show off your long legs?! Ah! If you want to die, who wants you to save me, I'm not an idiot, will I sit and let her stab?! You Do you have a long brain?! Ah!"

Mujin was stunned as she looked at the empress's rage, watching the emperor stepped back a few steps by being scolded by the empress, she couldn't help shaking her shoulders and swallowed.

Qian Changxinming and the others were also dumbfounded. Who has seen the empress's sturdy appearance? ! Who has seen the queen scold the emperor. As the emperor's valet, they should have stopped the empress's finger from poking at the emperor's chest, and they should have reprimanded the empress's disrespectful behavior, but... they just didn't dare to speak for no reason, not even the air!

"Go away!" Qu Qingju kicked away and knelt on the front of the Qin family's patriarch, scolding, "They say you are a scholarly family of the Qin family, but what are you doing, no tutoring, barbaric behavior? , Unfaithful and unrighteous, saying that you are a scholarly family, these four words are insulting! Qin Bailu is so daring, you are used to it!"

After all the Qin family members were scolded, they reacted and banged their heads one by one, begging the emperor to spare their lives. There was a person in the family who assassinated the queen, and that was a big crime that linked the nine clans.

"Qing Ju..." He Heng reached out and held Qu Qing Ju's hand, only to find that her hand was trembling slightly, with a pleasing smile on her face, "Don't be angry, don't be angry, being angry is not good for your body."

Qu Qing Ju waved his hand away, sat back on the chair, raised the teacup and lowered her head to drink tea, never looking at him again.

Qian Changxin and Ming He silently retracted the left foot that they finally gathered up the courage to stretch out. Since even the scolded emperor was smiling, what else could they say as servants

But the empress's appearance when she was furious was really terrifying, and the lion's roar in Hedong couldn't be more like this.

"The daughter of the Qin family has no words or deeds, and even dares to assassinate the empress. Heaven's law is unbearable, and she will be executed in three days." Seeing that Qu Qingju was ignoring herself, He Heng sat down beside her and said coldly, "Qin The family did not teach the daughter properly, they were bold, framed the queen and courtiers, and all of them were thrown into the heavenly prison, and the sentence will be pronounced on another day."

"Forgive me, Your Majesty!" Before the Qin family's pleas for mercy could be said, someone covered their mouths and dragged them all down. As for Qin Bailu, who was trying to assassinate Qu Qingju, he was knocked out by He Heng and dragged down. was already unconscious.

"Go back," He Heng glanced at the hall and waved his hand. After everyone had stepped back, he put Qu Qing Ju in his arms, "Don't be annoyed, I know you're worried about me."

"Who's worried about you!" Qu Qing Ju pushed him, and seeing that he couldn't push it, he didn't bother, so he let him hold it.

"Even if a silver hairpin is tied to the body, it won't kill anyone, not to mention I told you that I have practiced martial arts, is it possible that I can't take a woman?" He Heng patted her back lightly, " You've scolded me for a while, so don't be angry anymore, okay?"

"What if it's stuck in the internal organs?" Qu Qing Ju frowned, "I don't want to be a widow at a young age!"

"Okay, I know I'm wrong, don't be angry, let's go to see the dolphin, he must miss us." Although he was scolded, He Heng felt happy. would do such inappropriate behavior.

Although a bit useless, but this feeling is still very ... cool.

"You all take care of your mouths," Qian Changxin glanced at the palace maids and eunuchs who had withdrawn from the palace. Although these people were often used by the empress, he still had to instruct him, "If there is any rumors, If it comes out, the thing around the neck is unnecessary."

Everyone said yes, and Mujin looked back at the hall behind her with lingering fears, and couldn't help wiping the fine sweat on her forehead.

The Queen Mother just now is really... amazing!

☆、118 · Untitled

The Qin family was thrown into the Heavenly Prison, and the eldest daughter of the Qin family who used to be Princess Rui was ordered to be beheaded. Many people in the capital guessed that the Qin family would end up in this situation. In addition to Qin Bailu's assassination of the queen, it may also be related to the previous Jingzhong. Rumors related.

Regardless of the truth, the Qin family's behavior in recent years has gradually lost its scholarly style, and some scholars even said that the current Qin family patriarch is ashamed of the ancestors of the Qin family.

Some people lamented the demeanor of the Qin family back then, and they went back to educate their children and grandchildren about the Qin family, taking the Qin family as an example, and don't follow the old path of the Qin family.

When Dai Rong heard that Qin Bailu was about to be beheaded, she was too frightened to go out. She knew better than others what was going on. At the beginning, it was Qin Bailu who discussed with her to ruin the queen's reputation. Qin Bailu even told her a lot about the Dalong harem. He didn't expect this to be revealed so quickly. did not keep.

On the day Qin Bailu's beheading was shown to the public, Qiu Gao was in a good mood, and many people joined in the fun, but until the moment before the execution, no one came to see her off.

She looked around at a loss, and suddenly saw a man riding a white horse behind the crowd. She was slightly startled, and her tears suddenly rolled down. She was attracted to this man when she was thirteen, and married him when she was fifteen. Abandoned by him at the age of seventeen, the moment before his death, he still saw him.

Black sackcloth covered her eyes, she turned her head to look at him more, but in vain she let the executioner cover her eyes, she heard scolding and mocking in her ears. Although she held her breath, she did not hear his voice.

At the palace banquet that year, it would be fine if she hadn't met him.

It's just that she was too young at that time, and it's just that the teenager at that time was amazed at her age.

Perhaps, what she hates is not Qu Qingju, nor is what she hates Qu Yuesu. All her hatred stemmed from unwillingness and dissatisfaction with him. If life could be repeated, she would rather be an ordinary woman and marry an ordinary man. Whether it is prosperous or plain, you can always get a feeling of your own.

Just like Qu Qing Ju, there is a man who protects her, and she can look forward to her life.

"The hour is up, execution!"

The noon sunshine of golden autumn was printed on the knife raised by the executioner, showing a little silver light. The thick sweat drank the burning knife, sprayed it on the large knife, and then slowly raised his hand and slashed it with force.

Qin Bailu showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he saw the dazzling young man at the palace banquet, and then the world fell into darkness.

He Yuan's hand holding the reins froze abruptly, and then slowly loosened, he turned the horse's head with the reins, and instead of looking at the beheading platform behind him, he sighed and said, "He Fu'er, let someone give her a good burial. "

If there is no family member to collect the body of a person who has been on the beheading stage, they will only be sent to the mass grave in the end. Although he has no feelings for her, and even hates her, but He Yuan didn't even look at the woman he used to die without a coffin.

Seeing that the master's face was not good, He Fuer hurriedly signaled the people behind him to collect Qin Bailu's corpse, "My lord, the sun is getting worse at the moment, why don't you go back to the manor."

He Yuan raised his eyebrows and glanced at him: "Go back."

He Fu'er hurriedly stepped forward to hold the horse rope and took the horse to the king of the county.

The direction of the mansion led him, and when he was about to turn the corner, he couldn't help but look back at the beheading platform where the crowd had dispersed. The person who beheaded at noon is afraid that he will not even have a soul if he is exposed to such a strong sun.

But to assassinate the queen, this courage is really big enough, no wonder the emperor would make such a will, but it is really self-inflicted. Fortunately, the lord left her early, otherwise even the county palace would be implicated by her.

Dai Rong didn't dare to see the execution scene of Qin Bailu. After hearing that Qin Bailu's body was taken away by the people of Ruijun Wangfu, she sat in the house uneasy. If anyone walked in the yard, she would tremble with fear .

The emperor even ordered the beheading of a daughter of an aristocratic family like Qin Bailu. If she finds evidence related to the previous rumors, what will happen to her, and Jing Guohui will not be implicated by her

She regretted working with Qin Bailu now. How could she be so foolish as to believe what a woman who was abandoned by the royal family said? !

After drinking a sip of cold tea, she suppressed the panic in her heart. As soon as Dai Rong's teacup left her mouth, she saw her servant girl pushed open the door and walked in hastily, her face full of panic: "Princess, His Majesty the Emperor Dalong has summoned you to join us. Prince."

The teacup in her hand fell to the ground in shock, Dai Rong stood up in fright, and saw Eunuch Dalong standing in the yard through the door, staggered under her feet, and forced a smile: "Wait for me to change clothes..."

"Please don't waste your time, the princess. The emperor and the empress are very busy, so the princess should hurry up and enter the palace." Qian Changxin walked into the house and shook the whisk in his hand expressionlessly, "Princess, please."

Dai Rong recognized that this was the eunuch next to Emperor Dalong, and did not dare to neglect him at the moment, forced a smile, and followed Qian Changxin out of the house. When she walked to the yard, she saw that Tour was also wearing a normal dress, and her face was not very good-looking.

"Prince, princess please," Qian Changxin raised his eyebrows, "don't make the emperor wait for a long time."

Seeing Qian Changxin's attitude, Dai Rong's unease became more and more serious, and she was almost out of breath.

Entering the palace, as Qian Changxin and others entered the Tianqi Palace, Dai Rong heard the voice of the empress coming from the door. After Qian Changxin reported it, the voice stopped, and she was surrounded by the palace maid and eunuch Leng Bingbing. In his eyes, he walked in.

Qu Qing Ju was playing with a kaleidoscope, and when she saw Dai Rong and Tuer coming in, she handed the kaleidoscope to the maid on the side, and turned into a sitting posture. After the two saluted, she just held the teacup without speaking, and let He Heng talk to the two of them.

"I heard that Princess Huguo was very close to the Qin family. I don't know what the princess has to explain?" He Heng looked at Tur and Dai Rong coldly, and with just one sentence, they both fell to their knees in fright. The faces of the two in front of them were still ugly, "Jing Kingdom has always been a vassal state that Dalong valued in the early years, but now your behavior has disappointed me very much."

When Tuer heard this, his face became frightened, and he hurriedly said with a big salute: "Your Majesty, the noble emperor, the loyalty of my country to you can be learned from the sky, please don't believe in rumors!"

"Is it true that the two of you are also very clear about the rumor," He Heng frowned when he remembered the rumors in Beijing and what Qin Bailu had done, "I just want Jing Guo to give me an explanation for Dalong. ."

Tour's forehead was already dripping with sweat, he gritted his teeth and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, we would like to increase our tribute by 20% to show our loyalty to Dalong."

"My Dalong is not short of these things," He Heng snorted coldly, "If my queen and courtiers are harmed by rumors, even if the kingdom of Jing is wiped out, it will not be able to quell my anger!"

"I beg your Majesty's forgiveness!" Tour's face dripped with sweat down his chin, but he didn't dare to stretch out his hand to wipe it. He took two steps forward and begged, "I beg your majesty's forgiveness! I beg your majesty's forgiveness!"

Qu Qing Ju glanced at Tur, who was in a state of embarrassment. Even Tur had claimed himself as a minister in front of them. It could be seen that Tur had nothing to do at this time. She didn't want to join in the fun, but He Heng called her here. It turned out that she didn't like watching people kowtow to herself.

"Your Majesty, all the mistakes are the fault of the ministers' daughters. It's the ministers' daughters who are obsessed with the prosperity of Dalong. The people of Jing country have nothing to do. I beg your majesty to spare the people of Jing. How can the country still bear the heavy pressure of an increase of 20% of the annual tribute. Although she didn't want to admit it, she understood that she had made a mistake, "I beg the emperor to spare Jing Kingdom, Jing Kingdom is a land of bitter cold, and our people are no longer able to bear the war and more tribute."

Hearing these words, Qu Qing Ju looked at Dai Rong more. At the critical moment, the princess protecting the country was not confused to the end, she finally knew how to protect her own people.

In fact, how many people in the world can resist the temptation of prosperity

He Heng looked at the brother and sister coldly, completely unmoved. This is the case between countries. He must protect the interests of his own people first, and then he will have time to sympathize with others. He is the emperor of Dalong, not the emperor of Jing.

Different positions, where is the sympathy

"Since the princess knows that Jing Kingdom can't bear our anger, why would you do such a bold thing?" He Heng threw the investigation items in front of the two brothers and sisters, "If we send troops to Jing Kingdom, it will be you too. The sins of the Protector Princess."

Dai Rong didn't dare to look at those things, but begged for mercy in horror: "The minister's daughter is fascinated, the minister's daughter is willing to be punished, and asks the emperor to spare the people of Jing Kingdom." She couldn't believe that if Dalong really sent an army, her mother and How will the people of Jing country look at her and be disappointed? anger? Still hate

"Your Majesty, the ministers and daughters are willing to apologize with death, and beg the Emperor to spare the innocent people!" Dai Rong knelt up and looked at the outstanding but ruthless emperor in front of her, her face not showing the seductive look on her face. She looked at Qu Qingju, who had been drinking tea silently, took a few steps to her knees, and then kowtowed heavily, "The minister's words and deeds have nothing to do with the empress, and I beg the empress to punish her."

Qu Qing Ju despised Dai Rong for ruining the country's arrogance for prosperity, and didn't mind her and Qin Bailu spreading rumors to slander her, but now Dai Rong seems to have unloaded everything and became the protector of the Jing Kingdom, she would rather die to make up for it. I don't want to hurt my own people because of my own mistakes.

People who know their mistakes and can correct them are more pleasing to the eye than those who do not repent when they die. The most important thing is that Dai Rong is the princess of Jing Kingdom, not Dalong. A Jing country is easy to deal with, if other dependent countries are against it, even if Dalong has no problem dealing with these countries, it is not a good thing.

Unnecessary wars are a disaster for the people.

"Your Majesty, it's better to write a letter to the Queen of Jing Kingdom, and let her explain to us Dalong," Qu Qingju put down the teacup and said, "The matter is over, I don't want the war to start because of me."

He Heng sighed: "But what if the original rumors really caused bad consequences?"

"I know your intentions, Your Majesty," Qu Qing Ju smiled, "I'm a lazy person, and I don't like to care about the affairs of the previous dynasty, but I know one thing, and that is the people who suffer in wars."

After a while, He Heng nodded: "I understand what you mean, I will leave this matter to the Queen of Jing Kingdom and give Dalong an explanation."

The historian next to him recorded the words and deeds of the emperor and empress, "In October of the first year of Jiayou, Princess Jing offended the empress, and the emperor was furious and wanted to send troops to Jing. Afterwards, he persuaded him to say that those who were warring, the people who suffered. The emperor heard that. , anger away."

☆、119

At the end of October, the weather was very cold, and the affiliated countries were also preparing to leave for their homeland, so before leaving, Dalong held a banquet in Luanhe Hall to entertain the envoys of the affiliated countries.

He Heng never mentioned the matter of Jing country in front of Qu Qingju again, and she never asked again. Although Dalong did not have the rule that the harem was not allowed to engage in politics, she was very aware of her ability and could not even memorize Sun Tzu's Art of War. It is better not to harm the people.

She was an agent in her previous life, she knew how to use people's hearts and how to manipulate the other party for her own benefit. This is her cleverness, but she is self-aware and knows what she is good at and what she is not good at.

Just like when Feng Zijin borrowed Han Liangdi to frame her, she will do whatever she wants to get rid of this kind of woman who is always scheming against her. Concubine Shugui had already moved out of the harem, and the empress dowagers of the two palaces did not deal with her. How could they allow Concubine Shugui's contacts to remain in the palace.

At the beginning, the incident involved Concubine Shugui, and she had her backside, but the biggest force came from the Empress Dowager Suzumiya. They simply borrowed Feng Zijin and Han Liangdi to pull Concubine Shugui into the quagmire and let her live. Better to die.

She guessed the intention of the Empress Dowager Liang Gong, so she allowed Feng Zijin to involve her in the matter, and then watched her dig her own grave, and finally lost her life.

Who can tolerate opponents who have bullied themselves after they have developed? There are stories of people in history, and there are also living lessons from the concubine Shugui.

Sitting in the phoenix carriage, she passed by the pavilion where Han Liangdi once sang songs, Qu Qingju hugged the dolphin in her arms, her eyes gradually became calm, she would not let herself fall to the level of the concubine Shugui!

"The Queen is here!"

Passing through the gate of Luanhe Hall, the scarlet phoenix robe and skirt crossed the carpet in silence, she ignored the envoys and ministers kneeling on both sides, walked to the ninth-level jade steps, and bowed to He Heng: " I have seen the king."

"Get up quickly," He Heng got up from the dragon-patterned chair, and when he saw Qu Qingju walking to the jade steps, he took her hand and sat down. Qu Qing Ju turned her head to look at the people who were still kneeling, and raised her voice, "Everyone, please get up quickly."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank the Queen Mother."

Qu Qingju smiled and nodded. After these people got up, she took back her gaze, looked at He Heng, and said, "I'll keep you all waiting, and I will punish myself for a cup." After speaking, she picked up the peach blossom wine in front of her. , cupped the wine glass with his sleeves, raised his head and drank.

How dare everyone really let the queen drink a glass of apology wine like this, and they all picked up the glass and drank it. The emperor arrived first, and he did not complain about the queen's move, let alone these people.

"My emperor was crying in Fushou Palace just now, and the queen had no choice but to turn back," He Heng said with a smile on his lips.

Fushou Palace is where the Empress Dowager lives. Where is His Royal Highness crying and fussing? Did something happen? If it's normal crying, where is the need for the Queen to make this trip

Although everyone felt that this was a little wrong, but seeing the emperor's expression as usual, they thought it was not a big deal, so they all smiled and continued the words of the parenting scripture. The minister who usually doesn't care about the child seems to have become a decathlon dad now, as if the child is brought up by himself.

The atmosphere at the banquet suddenly became lively, and the singing and dancing continued.

He Heng whispered in Qu Qingju's ear, "Is the queen mother of the two palaces all right?"

"It's just a shock," Qu Qing Ju held up the wine glass, with a smile on her lips, but her words were cold, "The people around the mother are cautious, those things were discovered before they got close to the dolphins. This Concubine Shu's people are really hidden deep enough that even the two mothers and queens didn't find it."

Originally, she was planning to come to the Luanhe Palace for a farewell banquet. Who knew that as soon as she left the palace, she saw the Fushou Palace's Ding Mammy and hurriedly informed her about it. She was in the mood to come to the Luanhe Palace, so she immediately turned around and went to Fushou Palace. palace.

The queen mothers of the two palaces are all women with means, and they quickly found out who started it, and even found out that the master behind it was Concubine Shugui. Unexpectedly, Concubine Shugui was sent to guard the imperial mausoleum, and she was unwilling to arrange such a major event before leaving.

"What did you find?" He Heng's expression darkened.

"Some of the dirty blood must be the blood of some seriously ill people. I'm afraid this concubine Shugui doesn't know about it. Anything I want to give to a dolphin, even a handkerchief, I will let people check the meaning. "Uh," Qu Qingju sneered, "I heard that Concubine Shugui lived in the imperial mausoleum extravagantly, and complained in her heart. I have already ordered people to reduce her expenses, and every year, except for the Mid-Autumn Festival, no one is allowed to disturb her. An Ning. This woman is old, and if she is still so irritable, she needs quiet days to calm her emotions. I think Concubine Shugui will soon know how good quiet days are. "

She lived a poor life, and the people around her were all deaf and dumb, so she wanted to see how this Concubine Shugui would live in the future. If she were to die, wouldn't it be cheap for her, and if Concubine Shugui didn't understand why she regretted it, how could she feel at ease

He Heng heard the meaning of her words and stopped talking about the matter. He knew that women defended the madness of their children. Just as his mother defended him back then, he exhausted all means and no one could stop him.

"I can see the words of His Majesty the Emperor Dalong, and see the prosperity of Dalong. This is a worthwhile trip. Ajika, the envoy of the Duohan Kingdom, wishes Dalong to be prosperous and prosperous for thousands of years." As the envoys of the Duohan Kingdom, they knew that they were not very popular with Dalong, so this time they entered Beijing with a low attitude, in order to convince the people of Dalong that Duohan truly surrendered to Dalong.

"Thank you, Lord Ajika, Ji Yan," He Heng raised the glass to Ajika and took a sip.

When Ajika saw that he had drank the wine that he had toasted, his face showed joy: "I will give you another cup on behalf of the people of Duohan. My loyalty to Dalong can be learned from the sky." After speaking, he raised his head and drank it completely. A glass of wine, and then a cup of wine, not a drop of wine came out, "If Dohan breaks his oath, let the gods come and punish us."

"I accept the loyalty of the people of Duohan," He Heng smiled and drank the whole glass of wine in his hand, "I also wrote down Ajika's oath today."

After Ajika sat down, she proudly glanced at Tur and Dai Rong who were sitting below her. With the previous behavior of Princess Dai Rong, they were no longer the most hateful dependents in the hearts of Dalong people. , It seems that he should thank this beautiful princess.

Dai Rong saw the proud smile on Ajika's face, with a bitter smile on her face. She looked up at the empress who was sitting on the ninth jade step. It was these two people who made her understand what regret was and what was fear. , What is prosperity.

In the end, her eyes fell on He Heng's smiling face. She was really moved by the young emperor. She was benevolent and courageous, and she also had a true love for the queen, but it was a pity that this true love did not belong to her.

Seeing that his sister was still staring at Emperor Dalong, Tur frowned and said, "Sister, won't you give up yet?"

Dai Rong smiled bitterly and said, "There is no one who is willing to give up, and no one has looked at me from the beginning to the end." It was this man who made her understand that not everyone loved her, maybe the people of Jing country loved her like that, except for In addition to her appearance, there is also her identity.

She is the princess of Jing Kingdom. Even if she is not necessarily the future king of Jing Kingdom, she is also the future hope of Jing Kingdom. She has endured their love and longed for the prosperity of Dalong. If the people of Jing Kingdom knew what she had done, what kind of disappointment would they be

She should be grateful to Empress Dalong. If it weren't for this outstanding empress, maybe she wouldn't be able to sit in this hall now, and it would be Dalong's iron hoof waiting for Jing.

This time in her life is enough to be confused. Her identity does not allow her to continue to be confused, let alone continue to make mistakes, otherwise the result may be Jing Guo's doom.

"The courtier respects the honorable Empress, and I wish the Empress and the Emperor a stronger love than gold, and everything goes well." Dai Rong stood up and raised the glass to Qu Qingju, "The minister also thanks the honorable Empress for giving The opportunity for the daughter to grow up, please accept the sincere worship of the daughter of the queen." After speaking, she performed a blessing and respect from the Jing Kingdom to Qu Qing Ju, and drank a glass of fine wine.

Qu Qing Ju looked at Dai Rong in the next song, as if in just a few days, the princess protecting the country had grown up quickly, so that she could no longer see the shadow of the past. It's like a petite girl turned into a girl. I don't know how many people can make such a transformation. Maybe Qin Bailu's death woke her up? Perhaps it was the lives of the people of Jing who made her understand what responsibility is

But no matter what, Qu Qing Ju accepted Dai Rong's glass of wine, she held up the glass with a smile, and said, "Sometimes people make mistakes, the key is whether they can turn back, whether they can figure it out, this palace also hopes that The friendship between Long and Jing country will last forever, and the people of Jing country will live well."

"Thank you for your honorable empress's auspicious words, my country Jing will be loyal to Dalong from generation to generation!" Dai Rong's eyes were slightly red, she knew that the queen was guaranteeing her that Dalong would not join the army in Jing country, she exchanged a cup The wine, he drank it again without hesitation.

On the day when the envoys of the affiliated countries left, the autumn was high and the air was fresh. The suburbs of the capital were full of wild chrysanthemums. Qu Qingju and He Heng stood on the high city gate, watching these envoys bow to them three times and nine times. Afterwards, he left slowly in a carriage. The carriage gradually went farther and farther, and finally disappeared at the end.

Qu Qing Ju picked up the hair blown by the autumn wind beside her cheeks, and sighed, "Qu end the audience, and the city is full of flowers, so it's not lonely."

Seeing that her expression was a little sad, He Heng took her by the hand and walked down the tower: "Someone goes, someone comes, we just stay where we are."

Qu Qing Ju tilted her head and glanced at him, a slight smile gradually appeared on the corner of her mouth, although it was shallow, it was very real.

☆、120·Feng Qiuhuang

When the Dalong plum blossoms first bloomed, the capital began to snow heavily with goose feathers, and the whole capital became a world wrapped in silver clothes. Qu Qingju stood under the eaves wearing fox furs, reaching out to pick up some cold snowflakes.

Now, when she sees snow, she doesn't seem to be as excited as she used to be. It's like a beautiful thing, maybe it's just like that when she's used to seeing it. Retracting her hand, she stared at the snowflakes in her palms, some of them really looked like six-petaled flowers, and they looked very beautiful up close.

He wiped off the snowflakes from his palms with a handkerchief, and clenched the hand warmer tightly, "Tomorrow is King Rui's wedding, and you can't go wrong with what you want to reward tomorrow."

"Don't worry, madam, the servants have already checked carefully." Seeing that the queen was no longer going to pick up the snowflakes, Mujin raised her umbrella to block the flying snowflakes for her, and whispered, "Miss, it's windy here, let's go back."

Qu Qingju nodded, pulled down the Firefox cloak on her body, and walked slowly on the scarlet corridor. The palace boots made a dull sound when stepping on the stone slab. She walked through the long corridor step by step with no expression on her face. Passing through a moon gate, I saw the eunuchs struggling to sweep the snow on the palace road, and finally learned to ignore their crooked backs and sit on the luxurious and comfortable phoenix chariots.

"Get off!"

The phoenix swayed slightly, and then began to walk slowly. When she passed a plum garden, she lifted the window screen and watched a red plum stick out from the corner of the wall. She faintly smelled the faint fragrance of plum. Feng Nian moved forward slowly, and the blooming red plum in his field of vision gradually drifted away until he could no longer see it.

She suddenly felt a little lost, put down the window screen in her hand, and somehow suddenly remembered the red plum painting hanging on the wall when she opened her first eyes in this world. The plum blossom-like, although not as gorgeous as other flowers, but it can smell the fragrance.

"I have seen the Empress." Feng Nian's speed slowed down. Hearing this somewhat familiar voice, Qu Qing Ju lifted the window screen and looked at the woman who was half-squatting beside Feng Nian. "Royal concubine please get up."

"Thank you, Empress," Luo Yinxiu stood up straight, not looking directly at Qu Qingju's face, but looking at the ground honestly.

"It's freezing cold, why doesn't your concubine sit on the chariot?" Qu Qing Ju looked at the half-worn fur cloak on her body, frowned slightly, and then said, "Huang Yang, go to the palace to check, there are I didn't treat the noble concubine slowly, if someone is bold enough to neglect the master, they will be punished for thirty."

Luo Yinxiu was blessed again: "Thank you for your concern, the concubine, everything is fine."

How could Qu Qing Ju not understand these things in the harem? When the late emperor was there, even the empress dared to neglect him, not to mention Luo Yinxiu, who was unloved and powerless. Thinking of this, she said in a low voice: "The three-rank noble concubines should have bed and food, and this palace believes that the people in the palace should understand. Huang Yang, you go and tell them, if you don't understand these things, you don't need to be this. Worse."

"Yes," Huang Yang bowed, and then bowed to Luo Yinxiu before backing down.

"It's getting late, it's time for me to go back to the palace, and your concubine should go back earlier," Qu Qing Ju looked at Luo Yinxiu's duty, and lowered the window screen to separate Luo Yinxiu's raised gaze.

The phoenix chariot walked away, and Shu Wen, the maid next to Luo Yinxiu, watched the phoenix chariot become more and more blurred in the snow, moved the umbrella back to Luo Yinxiu's head, and whispered: "Master, the queen is still like this. as gentle."

Luo Yinxiu turned her head to look at the direction where Feng Nian left, there was the Emperor's Apocalypse Palace, she showed a faint smile and sighed: "If I want to live the rest of my life well, I can rely on it. There is only the Empress." Therefore, she deliberately wore half-old clothes to meet the Empress here, so that the Empress could understand her situation.

The life in the harem was difficult, but fortunately, she met a fairly benevolent queen, but if she was more ruthless, she didn't know what her life would be like.

Ruijun Wangfu is covered with happy words everywhere, and there is an endless stream of guests coming and going. Although King Rui Jun had already lost power at this time, he couldn't stand the marriage given by the emperor. If they didn't come to congratulate them, wouldn't they be in trouble with the emperor

But what surprised them was that King Rui Jun also refused to come to toast, and after a wedding banquet, he had already drank seventy-eighty-eighty. Fortunately, the guests still remembered the identity of the bridegroom of King Rui Jun, and with King Cheng escorting them, they did not dare to make too much trouble.

He Qi and He Yuan have never looked at each other. He looked at He Yuan drinking water like drinking water, and sneered. Those who didn't know, thought his good brother was drinking. He glanced at the fourth brother, who was holding the wine for the third brother, and sighed. Who would have thought that the fourth child would become the second most proud of their four brothers

Seeing that others didn't dare to drink hard, He Qi picked up the jug and walked to He Yuan, whose cheeks were flushed, and said with a smile, "Third brother, you and I are brothers, today is you. It's a good day, we two brothers have a good drink?"

He Yuan raised the glass nonchalantly and said with a smile, "Brother's wine, of course my younger brother wants to drink." After speaking, he took the exquisite wine jug and wine glass, poured a full glass, raised his head and drank it, shaking the empty wine glass and said, "Lan Lingmei wine tulips, jade bowls filled with amber light. But the master can get drunk, and he does not know where he is in a foreign land. There is wine now, and the younger brother toasts the elder brother. "

He Qi didn't expect that He Yuan was more succinct than himself. Before he could react, the other party drank another glass, which made him not interested in drinking alcohol for a moment. He was even more excited than drinking alcohol. What's the meaning

Others watched this scene, thinking that King Ning was deliberately embarrassing King Rui, remembering the grievances between the two brothers for many years, and no one walked forward without eyesight, drinking silently.

He Ming next to him looked at this scene and thought for some reason.
