He ordered the eunuch, with a flash of surprise in his eyes, to ask the queen to sleep with him. This was the first time in more than ten years!
But he was not slow to reply at all. He immediately bent his waist deeper and responded softly: "Yes, I will tell people to prepare it now!"
what to prepare?
Naturally, he was preparing for the emperor and empress to wash up and have people record their bedtime matters.
The rules of the harem, not only for the concubines, but also for the queen to sleep with her, must be remembered clearly and clearly. Even if the emperor has a maid on a whim, it will be recorded by a special person, otherwise, there will be someone in the harem. Who is pregnant and who can tell clearly whether she is pregnant with a dragon child?
This record check can save most of the trouble by calculating according to the date of pregnancy.
After all, the difference is only one month, so it is impossible for Luo Hong to still be pregnant.
After the emperor gave the order, the queen seemed quite quiet, which was in line with the shy and timid image of her in the emperor's mind.
After washing up, I went to bed.
The candlelight flickered slightly, the bed curtains swayed slightly, and the dragon bed returned to calm, with the emperor and empress' hair entangled.
The queen's eyes were shy and angry, but she looked away, facing the inner wall where her cheeks were still slightly red just now, and she became calm again.
But the emperor lying beside her, smelling her familiar yet unfamiliar fragrance, seemed to be much more energetic. The energy in his body made him feel as if he had returned to the past. As he got older, he missed his youth more and more. That time The people and things inside are cherished even more.
The emperor's heart was filled with excitement at the thought of having someone who could prove his heroic past lying beside him.
"This is youth. When I was young, how could I have imagined that it was so easy to get at that time, but now it is so precious?"
"As people get older, they are accompanied by pain, while youth represents energy and hope."
"I am not willing to grow old and die like this. As the king of a country, why can't I firmly grasp this youth and become an immortal?"
"I am the emperor, I will definitely succeed!"
"Queen, I know you have resentment in your heart, but please wait for me. When I truly become the emperor, I will make you smile."
"My love is always you."
Thinking like this, the emperor slowly fell asleep, and the scene of his youth seemed to really appear in front of his eyes. When he was in high spirits, he looked back at the equally young woman. The two of them were next to the red wall and under the palace lantern, their eyes bright. , their eyes intertwined.
At that time, he really missed it.
The queen did not move, just looked at the tent ceiling, and suddenly remembered her mother's teachings.
"You are blessed. No one can compare with you. When you become a queen, the emperor must be the master of the order. As his wife, you must be his minister. You must be dignified, steady, virtuous and quiet. Most importantly, you must be the ruler. Be still, don't listen, don't squint... don't be jealous..."
"As long as you don't fight, no one in the world can fight with you."
This sentence comes from the "Tao Te Ching" "If you don't fight, no one in the world can fight with you." When I was young, I didn't think that it was too negative. Who in the world can not fight with me?
But now the queen suddenly understood her mother's wisdom.
Yes, among the hundreds of millions of ministers, who can not fight? If not, they will fall into the mud. But when you have reached this position, who are you fighting with?
The emperor wants to give grace to his concubines, and the queen wants to fight. Rather than fighting with the concubines, it is better to say that she is fighting with the emperor.
Just once or twice, no matter how many times there are, there will be no more affection.
The palace fight is ridiculous!
The more you fight, the faster your grace will fade.
But from the concubine's point of view, it's useless not to fight. This is the wisdom that only belongs to the queen, the prince, and me.
"Mom, I heard what you said, but you said I was blessed, but I don't believe it." The queen felt a sting in her heart.
"Queen, actually I really want to go back to the past..." Just when the queen closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep, she suddenly heard the man beside her say this softly.
The queen was shocked, but after waiting for a moment, she didn't say anything.
She then opened her eyes, turned around and looked over, and found that the man with gray hair was sleeping with his eyes closed and his breathing was long.
Did it turn out that you were just talking in your sleep?
Thinking of the content of what the other party said in his sleep, the queen was startled, and her eyes fell on the side of the emperor's face.
She stretched out her hand and gently wiped the corner of the sleeping emperor's eyes. She felt complicated when she raised her hand, and there were even traces of moisture on her fingertips.
"Your Majesty, who doesn't want to go back to the past?" she sighed.
If given the chance, she would also want to go back to the past.
Back before Ah Fu died, she must make a ruthless plan to prevent Ah Fu's family from dying tragically.
If she could go back to the time when she was unmarried, she would definitely hide far away from this trap of lies that was sweet for a while but painful for half her life.
If she could go back to the day they met, she would probably never look back at that young man in the dim light.
Love has become a thing of the past, but hate may never end.
"Snapped!"
In Prince Qi's Mansion, Prince Qi had heard the news and his face immediately turned livid. He slammed the cup in his hand to the ground and said angrily, "It's actually the Zizi Sect!"
Ji Zizong, Ji Zizong! His father actually gave such a name to Su Ziji!
How virtuous and capable is Su Ziji, able to bear the title of a clan?
In the hall, candlelight was bright, and those sitting on both sides were either counselors or military attachés. They had also heard the news, and their faces were solemn at this moment.
"What does your father want to do? Could it be that he wants Su Ziji to inherit the throne?"
"Zong (Zhong), the Lord of Zhongxing? Or does His Majesty think he likes you?"
The grumpy King Qi was so angry that his face was flushed and his chest was heaving. If he didn't have some sense, he would have cursed in public.
But even though he didn't dare to curse, his tone was full of resentment.
The counselors and a few military attachés who were summoned in the middle of the night were not too frightened after hearing these words.
There is no way. In the past year, the camp of King Qi has been retreating steadily, as if the passing of time has been unlucky. It is clearly better than King Shu and King Lu, and is the strongest among the adult kings. But this year, the backbone of Qi is first The king was scolded by the emperor and lost face.
Secondly, some officials in King Qi’s camp were demoted. Even the goals that King Qi and the demon tribe wanted to achieve by uniting with the demon tribe failed one after another. Not only did the dragon girl not die, she was canonized by the court, and she also lost a person whom King Qi relied on very much. Government official.
Now that I think about it, I am really unlucky everywhere, and there are no good times.
And this is not the first time that King Qi is as angry as a trapped animal. He comes at least once a month. In the past year or so, I am afraid that I can’t count the number of times with both hands. At the beginning, everyone was very panicked. After a long time, I became a little numb.
But no matter how numb he was, the matter involving Su Zi's naturalization was indeed enough to arouse the vigilance of the counselors present.
King Qi's uncontrolled venting only exacerbated the instability of the military's morale.
