The palace servant was sad and couldn't help but burst into tears and advised: "Empress, you have to take care of the princes and princesses."

Queen Miao faced the inside of the bed, silently speaking, and only shed tears silently.

Seeing this, the two palace ladies looked at each other with concern, looked at each other with gaze, took a light move and left, and responded respectfully: "Your Majesty, the Empress has rested after taking the medicine, and has not woken up yet..."

Miao Wan had just come out of the inner room and knew how Queen Miao was sick. She knew that she had difficulty resting recently. She thought that she would definitely not be able to rest in just a short moment. At this time, when she heard the palace servant report this, she understood most of her heart, and couldn't hide her anxiety and looked at the emperor with her own eyes.

She is a woman, and she understands the grievances in Queen Miao's heart and can understand her sadness, but she can't do some things. After all, Queen Miao has a family and has two children and a daughter.

It’s okay if a daughter is born, but the legitimate princess can always be honored and honored, but what about the son?

That is the legitimate son of the wife. If he can't sit in that position in the future, I don't know how to attract many taboos. Moreover, Empress Miao's daughter is only twelve years old this year, and her youngest son is only nine years old. If she loses the protection of Empress Miao, her mother, will she be eaten alive by Concubine Qin and other palace concubines?

After all, the emperor was willing to bow his head, but if he refused, he would go down the road. If the emperor got up and returned to the palace, he would be afraid that it would be difficult!

Emperor Gaozu did not know that Queen Miao had not rested in the inner room, but he was aware of the keen senses and found that Miao Wan's expression was different. After looking at the expression of the palace servant who went out to reply, he guessed some points.

"Since that's the case, I'll go in and wait for her."

The palace people dared not stop it, and it was not advisable for male relatives such as Miao Xiangping and Liao Yuanyan to enter. Emperor Gaozu gently pushed open the door and walked through the outer room to the inside. He saw half of the curtains on the bed, and Queen Miao looked inward and lay on the side on the collapse.

The light in the room was dim, the medicine was faint, and there was a desolate evening air everywhere.

Emperor Gaozu felt pity and sighed inwardly, sat down beside the bed, and called Queen Miao's name softly: "Lanqiu, I'm here."

Queen Miao's spine froze slightly and she remained silent.

Emperor Gaozu reached out and gently stroked her spine, saying, "I did something wrong. I'm sorry for you. After drinking a few glasses of wine, I was confused. I said something I shouldn't say, which made you sad. Then I ordered you to drive you out of the palace. I made a lot of mistakes. I completely threw away my husband's relationship for many years..."

Queen Miao endured it again and again, but still couldn't hold it back. Her eyes were sore and sobbing gradually started.

Seeing this, Emperor Gaozu said, "It's all my fault. Once he developed, he forgot about your and my kindness in the past through thick and thin. He is really a big bastard. Whether you scold me or beat me, at least, let's talk, how about it?"

The sob sounds of sobs on the inside of the bed are getting stronger, but Queen Miao never makes a sound.

Emperor Gaozu persuaded her several times, but when she saw that she never said anything, she refused to turn around, she understood a little bit, and sat on the edge of the bed and sighed, and stopped talking.

...

Miao Xiangping and Liao Yuanyan are both male relatives, so it is difficult to enter, but they are still frightened and uneasy.

Miao Wan ordered someone to prepare tea, personally brought it to Liao Yuanyan, and thanked him with her husband: "Sir, speak up for justice, and I really don't know how to be grateful."

"Duke Zheng must not do this," Liao Yuanyan hurriedly said, "I have been friends with you for more than ten years and have been favored by the queen many times. How can I sit back and see you? Fortunately, Your Majesty is wise and has changed his mind and things will be completed." After that, he told them and their husbands about what happened today.

"So my brother-in-law went out of the palace to stop you?" Miao Xiangping showed relief after hearing this, looked at his wife with a look of pleasure, and said happily: "Since that's the case, I guess there's no worries about this."

While we were just greeting, we heard footsteps coming from outside. When the curtains were raised, the palace servant hurriedly reported: "Your Majesty has left."

I only talk about the emperor, but I don’t talk about the queen.

Miao Xiangping and Liao Yuanyan's hearts were sunk at the same time, and they said together: "How about the queen? Can you walk with me?"

The palace maid could only shake his head and sobbed, "Your Majesty has advised you for most of the day, but the queen is so sad that she never says anything."

Liao Yuanyan sighed, and Miao Xiangping asked his wife to visit Empress Gu, and he and Liao Yuanyan respectfully sent the emperor away from the mansion.

Miao Wan arrived at the main room where Queen Miao was. Before she entered the door, she heard a faint crying inside, unable to hide her grief. The impatience that surged out of her heart instantly dissipated, and it turned into bitterness and pity.

"Sister," she came in and advised, "The Imperial Doctor said that this disease is full of ups and downs. Stop crying. If you see your nobles later, you should cry."

Empress Miao leaned on the shoulder of the palace servant and cried in tears: "I'm old together, and I'm always complaining. I know that I should bow my head just now, not for myself, but for a few children, but I feel uncomfortable, my throat is blocked, I can't say anything, and I don't know what to say..."

She was so sad and in pain. Miao Wanshi was touched by her love intestine and she burst into tears: "I understand, it's easy to say to comfort me, but it's hard to empathize with me. If it were me, I'm afraid it wouldn't be much better."

The two of them cried together. When Miao Xiangping and Liao Yuanyan came out, they felt a little worried when they saw the emperor out.

Seeing this, Emperor Gaozu comforted her: "The queen is unwilling to forgive her, not because she is narrow-minded and ignorant of the general principles, but because I have made too many mistakes and amnesty and is not sincere enough to impress her, so Xiangping does not have to be afraid of it."

After hearing this, Miao Xiangping felt very calm and felt really moved. So he bowed and said repeatedly: "Your Majesty is wise."

Gaozu smiled and patted his shoulder: "How many times have you said it? Call me brother-in-law. This time I punish you for a month's salary, so I will give you a long memory."

Miao Xiangping and Liao Yuanyan both laughed.

After sending the emperor away from the mansion respectfully, Miao Xiangping's tone completely let go, and turned back to the door of the main room where Queen Miao was. He ordered someone to speak the words the emperor said to the queen.

Finally, he said: "My brother-in-law is back again, he is different from before."

Queen Miao cried so hard that she almost lost her strength and leaned half on Miao Wan's shoulder. When the palace people said that the emperor was not angry because she was silent, she just said that it was because he was not sincere enough to apologize and had nothing to do with others. Tears suddenly flowed down: "What did he really say that?"

The palace maid said with tears in her eyes: "It's true."

Queen Miao covered her face with her sleeves and never made any sound for a long time.

After a long time, Miao Wan thought she would not speak anymore, but saw Empress Miao holding the bed with her hand, slowly sitting up, and instructing, "Please pack up, I will return to the palace tomorrow."

Miao Wan was surprised, and was a little confused: "Empress?"

"He is such a handsome man, but he is willing to say those things to me indifferently. I think he really regrets it. I ignore it, and he is not annoyed. Instead, thinking this way, what else can I say?"

Queen Miao said: "He cut off the kindness of the husband and wife that day, and today he has made every effort to continue it. The friendship between husband and wife for twenty years and the righteousness of raising children should be cautious and respected."

Miao Wan was moved when she heard this, burst into tears and laughed, and said with a bow: "Yes."

The palace people were busy with their own efforts, and Miao Wan was there to help, and sent someone to send a letter to Miao Xiangping, telling him that the queen would return to the palace tomorrow.

After hearing this, Miao Xiangping felt very happy. The empress was expelled from the palace, which was a great loss. However, today the emperor came to ask for it in person and bowed his head to apologize several times, which was enough to give him a step. It was really a great thing to be able to go downhill and turn this page over.

Miao Xiangping ordered someone to drink with his wife at noon. The servant went away happily, and soon after, he came back in panic.

"Master, something happened!"

Miao Xiangping said: "What's the matter?"

The servant said, "Your Majesty and Mr. Liao are back!"

Miao Xiangping was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but wonder why the two of them were returning. As he was thinking, he heard the servant stammeringly say, "Your Majesty is naked and carrying a jingtie on his back, saying that he wants to apologize to the queen..."

Miao Xiangping was really surprised: "What?"

After saying that, he quickly reacted and said repeatedly: "Go and report back to the queen, she has to deal with this matter!"

...

Emperor Gaozu and Liao Yuanyan left the Duke of Zheng's mansion together, and the latter advised him: "The queen is compassionate and sad at this time. In a few days, His Majesty will be able to persuade the queen to return home."

Emperor Gaozu had just met Empress Miao, but he couldn't help but think of Empress Xu who had been with him for many years. He judged others by himself, and thought that if he did this because of his concubine and was expelled Empress Xu from the palace, he didn't know how sad and how his children would be so sad.

Luan Zhenghuan, Luan Zhenghuan, you did the wrong thing, so I'll end it.

He sighed in his heart, but he really felt pity for Empress Miao. After thinking for a moment, he ordered the imperial guards to go to the Ministry of Rites to invite the Queen's Etiquette to the Liao Mansion. He took off his shirt and carried a thorn on his back, and went to the Duke of Zheng's mansion to meet Empress Miao again.

Liao Yuanyan never thought that he would be willing to sit at this point - from ancient times to the present, how could an emperor have done this?

His first thought was that this matter was inappropriate, and he subconsciously wanted to comfort him, but when he said something, he swallowed it again.

This is also good. On the one hand, it is enough to comfort Empress Miao and Duke Zheng, and on the other hand, it can also use this to show the emperor's benevolence, not forget his old friends, and comfort the old ministers who have been frightened by Empress Miao's reprimand recently.

Did the emperor himself have the same plan?

It is not far from Liao Yuanyan’s mansion to Zheng Duke’s mansion, but it is definitely not close.

As the queen had left the ceremonial guard, those walking on the road had to retreat. There were also rituals and music. The high-ranking officials and nobles living nearby came out to visit. Seeing the emperor taking off his shirt and carrying a thorn in front of him, the queen was dumbfounded and hurriedly told the head of the family about the news and asked what to do.

The nearby people were all important officials in the court, and they were shocked after hearing the news.

The empress was in ceremonial guard, and the court officials were not allowed to ride a horse. The Minister of Rites was a big old man and asked the strong servants in the family to carry them on their backs. He galloped all the way up and knelt down and urged him: "Your Majesty must not do this! He took the emperor's honor and apologized for the women in the harem. This is something that has never been heard of. The court officials will not do it, let alone you be the emperor?"

Emperor Gaozu ordered his left and right to help him up and said, "If there is, change it; if there is no, encourage it. I have too many mistakes from the queen, so I should do this."

The Minister of Rites had no choice but to follow him and go to the Duke of Zheng's mansion together.

Empress Miao ordered people to put their clothes on and prepare to return to the palace. It was not yet stopped. When she heard Miao Wan coming in a hurry, she said that the emperor was carrying the thorns and apologizing for guilt. Her heart was burning, and she burst into tears in an instant: "Why do you have to do this..."

After saying that, he hurriedly ordered his side and left: "Change clothes for me and go out of the palace to greet Your Majesty."

They hurriedly changed her queen's clothes and combed her hair into a bun. Before she could add a pearl and jade hairpin, she helped her out of the mansion.

Miao Wan ordered the servants in the mansion to avoid him, but he and Empress Miao left the mansion. When he arrived at the gate of Duke Zheng's mansion, he heard the sound of rituals and music, and then he walked forward a few steps. Sure enough, he saw the emperor coming with his upper body naked and carrying a thorn on his back.

Empress Miao was weak and unable to support her, but she still forced herself to give a big gift, knelt on the ground, and choked up and said, "Your Majesty is so kind and kind, I will never be able to repay you if I die..."

"Why is this the same husband and wife?"

Emperor Gaozu came to help her up and sighed a lot: "I am ashamed of this, so the queen."

Most of the ministers along the street followed behind. At this time, they were silent. The emperor took the hand of Empress Miao, turned to face the ministers, and said seriously: "The Empress was a wife of the Luan family at the age of fifteen. She was kind to the wife, and she fulfilled her moral character, and had the kindness of mutual support. She was in harmony with each other. She was indifferent to her behavior, and was indifferent to wine and sex, and she was obsessed with her concubines, and forgot about her kindness. She shouldn't have been thanked for the Yuan Banquet. She woke up and carried the thorns to apologize for the crime today, so she prayed to the Empress to return to the palace and to restor her court officials, and to the heart of the world."

After hearing this, Empress Miao choked up: "Your Majesty..."

When Miao Xiangping heard Emperor Gaozu's words, his eyes were wet. When Liao Yuanyan saw this scene, his throat was sore and he felt deeply moved.
