The Queen Mother listened to the sound of frogs and looked at Guanhai Tingtao Cliff in the distance, recalling all the encounters she had with the late Emperor when she was young.
"The first time I heard your name was when my father said that today the princes and princesses would gather together to recite poems and compare poems."
"The third prince, who had been sleeping under the willow tree, was awakened and composed a poem: Sitting alone in the pond like a tiger roosting, nourishing one's spirit under the shade tree. When spring comes, if I don't speak first, no insect dares to make a sound."
"After you finish your poem, no one else will say anything, lest you become the insect that speaks first and then speaks later."
"My father praised you for your imperial demeanor and asked me if I would marry such a prince. I said nothing because I knew it would make no difference whether I was willing or not."
Later at the Wanshou Festival banquet, the future Queen Mother also participated.
The third prince composed a poem as a tribute, and his imperial style was unbridled and unbridled, shocking the whole palace.
He actually ignored all the famous emperors in the past dynasties and wrote, "If you count the famous figures, you still have to look at the current dynasty."
She knew very well that the eyes of the aristocratic marriageable women at the banquet were shining when they looked at the third prince, and her father also made up his mind to support the third prince to ascend the throne.
Later, she naturally became his queen. On their wedding night, she presented her with an article "Based on the Ethics of the New Qin Dynasty, supplemented by the Art of Prosperity and Power of All Countries", but he read it without saying a word.
As if she was marveling at what kind of woman could write such an article, the queen gradually forgot about the ideas, changes, and state affairs she wanted to discuss with him, and fell asleep without knowing it.
Later I found out that he actually made her fall asleep while smelling the fragrance of Chunxiao Baimei and drinking Yuntai tea.
On their wedding night, he didn't touch her and abandoned her aside. He just stared at Tang Qingwu's portrait the whole night.
To him, she was just a bonus of the marriage. He had already received the support of the Rong family. As for her? He has little interest.
He probably didn't expect that such a woman who was ignored and insulted by him would gradually take control of the empire after his death.
The Queen Mother came back to her senses and raised a cold smile on her lips.
The sound of water waves in the distance gradually gained a roaring momentum, and the curvature of her mouth became more and more exaggerated. The Queen Mother raised her hand to press her painful abdomen, which seemed to be laughing, but she did not let out any laughter. She was hunched over as if being pressed by something. It's like I can't straighten my back.
Flocks of crows flew over the Jingjing Zhaojian Temple, and a few crows made noisy calls restlessly.
"Aww...aoww..."
——

Qin Shou'an sat in the carriage and left Jiaofangsi to return to the palace.
It was really unexpected that Baobao Rong turned out to be Miss Shengjun, but I felt that this was indeed something she could do.
In the end, I didn't reminisce about the past much, and I didn't say a few words about Tang Wanrong. I could only look forward to meeting her next time and chatting with her for a while longer.
One thing that amazed him was that Baby Rong had really grown up.
Fang Zhimei was sitting in the Prime Minister's car. She could take the Prince's car quietly when she came here, and it would be more convenient to take the Prime Minister's car when she returned.
Even if Fang Zhimei is not here, Qin Shouan can still compare it to the reality of middle-aged people struggling to survive under various pressures, facing the high-spirited ideals of young people.
People often say: ideals are full, reality is skinny.
"Little prince, we watched "Bai Yuqiu" today. It was very good. The famous prostitute Bai Yuqiu, when she first met, she only had a cup of fragrant tea and left with three hundred taels of silver. The noble prince Li Longjin brought thirty-six thousand taels of silver. It was all spent in one year." Yue Qing actively reported to Qin Shou'an the drama they watched.
"Later, Mr. Li had to leave to get a job. The black-hearted madam sold Bai Yuqiu, who no longer accepted customers, to others as a concubine, and was framed for murder." Han Xin said angrily.
"Fortunately, the high-ranking official who conducted the trial was Mr. Li, who had obtained the imperial examination. In the end, Bai Yuqiu was avenged and the lovers finally got married."
Huaiyu sighed with envy. He just didn't know what it felt like for lovers to finally get married. It couldn't be as simple as marriage, right?
Then most people in this world are lovers who eventually get married.
Qin Shou'an listened to them chattering about the plot. This was probably the New Qin version of "The Story of the Famous Prostitute Su San".
Huaiyu hummed the tune and sang a few lines of opera with Yue Qing Hanxin.
"This play is widely circulated, and Le Niang basically knows it. If you like, you can play it for yourself. I will come as Mr. Li when I have time and interrogate you one by one." Qin Shou'an took off the long stick from his waist and gently raped each of you. Knock on the head.
"Ugh..." Huaiyu held his head and said coquettishly: "Then during the interrogation, will you personally execute me?"
Because in the play, Mr. Li carried out the execution himself in order to protect Bai Yuqiu, and later took off Bai Yuqiu's clothes to help her apply the medicine.
"Of course I will execute you personally and swell your butts one by one." Qin Shou'an waved the long stick in his hand and whirred.
The three maids seemed startled and huddled together in laughter, as if he would really beat them until their buttocks were swollen.
Returning to Three Lanes and Seven Alleys, the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion was open, and the jade-colored glass lantern was illuminated red by the firelight. Gui Lingpeng actually moved a stool and sat at the door.
The carriage of the Prime Minister's Office was also parked on the street. Fang Zhimei had already got off the carriage and stood beside Gui Lingpeng. Fang Zhishan seemed to be still on the carriage, probably because he did not dare to show his face.
Qin Shou'an couldn't help but want to laugh. After going to the Jiaofang Department, he violated one of the 81 "Rules for a Husband" formulated by Gui Lingpeng. Was he going to be tamed?
Do you want to watch the situation from the side, and then stand up and persuade Ling Peng and his wife to live in peace and not be a shrew? He definitely didn't want to watch the fun.
Just as he was thinking of words to comfort Gui Lingpeng, Fang Zhishan opened the curtain and said to Qin Shou'an, "My young prince, that man said you are a heartless man."
What!
Qin Shouan was so shocked that all the flowers withered. A man called him a heartless person?
Where do these demons and monsters come from? They have to point at Sun Wukong, an iron-boned Sun Wukong, and say that he is a white-bone spirit!
Qin Shou'an looked intently and saw a young man in white and brocade robes standing on a peach tree not far away.
The peach blossoms fell all over the ground, but the remaining ones still glowed with the gorgeous spring spirit. The young man in white tied his hair with gold and jade. He was a beauty in the world in the night. He had a long sword at his waist, and his sword-shaped eyebrows had starry eyes. He seemed to be as handsome as Qin Shou'an. a bit.
"The third son of the King of Nanhai, Ao Aojiao, is very polite."
Seeing everyone's reaction, Ao Aojiao confirmed Qin Shou'an's identity, jumped down, and landed in front of Qin Shou'an's carriage like a clear moonlight.
Seeing the other party blocking the carriage, Wei Liangzai resisted the urge to whip him. The third son of the King of Nanhai, whose status was similar to that of the crown prince, could not be beaten like he did when he saw Rong Qingshu.
"Nanhai Country? Brother, you came here late at night and you don't know why?"
Qin Shou'an was not as cool as the other man. He stepped on the ladder and slowly stepped off the carriage. He looked at Ao Aojiao and did not ask him why he claimed that Qin Shou'an was a heartless man.
"At the birthday banquet of the Seven Star Sword Sect in the Ancient Vase, Tianshu Sword God proposed marriage to the Master, and wanted to betroth Tianshu Sword God's beloved daughter to the crown prince. The Master originally agreed. You and Tianshu Sword God's beloved daughter Jiayun Fairies are also in love with each other..." Ao Aojiao said, unable to help showing a somewhat sad expression.
He originally wanted his heart to illuminate the moon, but the bright moon illuminated the ditch... Ao Aojiao quickly adjusted his mentality.
As long as Fairy Jiayun can get her wish, she feels that being with this prince is like a couple of gods and immortals. Ao Aojiao can't always be by her side, looking at her happiness and sweetness from afar, but there is no regret.
"Wait a minute, when did Fairy Jiayun and I fall in love?"
When Qin Shouan was chatting with Miss Shengjun, he thought of the Seven Star Sword Sect in the Ancient Vase...
Recalling that Tianshu Sword God proposed marriage and ended up unhappy, Fairy Jiayun's smile did not flash through my mind at that time. How could they be in love?
If he and Fairy Jiayun were in love, would it be someone else's turn to cause trouble?
"Since you left the Seven Star Sword Sect of the Ancient Vase, Fairy Jiayun has been unable to sleep at night. She has never shown a smiling face in front of me again. Seeing the beauty haggard, as a close friend, how can I just sit back and watch?"
Ao Aojiao thought of Fairy Jiayun's thinning cheeks, and a touch of distressed tenderness appeared on her face.
