Chapter 1220 back
Just after the first moment of the morning, a eunuch hurriedly ran into Zhou Hong's bedroom.
"Whatever you do, you're impatient, Your Majesty is resting." Eunuch Chen whispered to the little eunuch.
When the little eunuch heard this, he looked inside, shrank his neck and lowered his voice; "The Empress has returned to the palace. Didn't you send the young man to stare at the palace gate before?"
Oh, when Eunuch Chen heard this, he remembered it.
"I've seen it clearly? They're all back? Concubine Yu, the three imperial concubines are all back together?" Eunuch Chen asked again worriedly.
"If you go back to the chief executive, Xiaodi can see clearly. The Empress, Concubine Yu, and the Third Emperor are all back. That is, the Ninth Prince who went with him has not come back." The little eunuch responded in a low voice.
Eunuch Chen shook his head, "Your Highness Nine has not come back, it's Your Majesty who told Your Highness Nine to be there. Okay, there's nothing you have to do, go out."
Seeing the eunuch leave, Eunuch Chen hesitated for a moment, but still raised his foot into the inner room.
Emperor Zhou Hong lay on the couch, looking at his eyes closed, but he wasn't sure if he was really asleep.
"What's the matter?" Although Eunuch Chen had already taken a careful step, Zhou Hong still heard it.
"Report to Your Majesty, the people below just came to report that the Queen and the others were back, and they were probably coming here now." Eunuch Chen returned.
Hearing this, Zhou Hong opened his eyes and stood up. Eunuch Chen quickly stepped forward and knelt down to help put on his boots.
Zhou Hong also sorted out the dragon robe himself and raised his hand to straighten the crown.
Then he walked to the outside room, sat down, and signaled Eunuch Chen to serve tea.
Sure enough, the time for a cup of tea was not yet over, and the queen Shangguan Xia came, alone.
Zhou Hong glanced at Eunuch Chen, who immediately raised his foot and went out, but he had not forgotten to turn around and close the door.
In the bedroom, the emperor and the queen were the two.
"I am back late, please forgive me." Shangguan Xia said with some trepidation.
Zhou Hong waved her hand and signaled her to come to her side; "There are no people here, so there is no need to be like those ministers. As soon as I see me, I will say forgive me. What about there?"
Listening to his tone and his expression at this moment, Shangguan Xia felt relieved.
"Report to Your Majesty, that Mrs. Xue seems easy-going, but some things are unsightly. There is no trace of mouth. I am too useless." Shangguan Xia said in shame.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Hong did not look disappointed on his face; "Queen, don't be anxious to blame yourself. Xue Wenyu's wife is really not simple." He told the queen about Mu Yingbao's life experience, how did Xue Wenyu marry, and how did she raise the current emperor of Yanguo alone in Youcheng.
Once upon a time, he and the queen heard some fragments about this Mrs. Xue.
After knowing that she was here with Xue Wenyu this time, Zhou Hong ordered someone to gather the situation about Mrs. Xue.
"So, the fact that the former emperor of Yanguo's 'demonic for thousands of years' is true, isn't it an exaggerated rumor?" Shangguan Xia also admired the little woman from the bottom of her heart after hearing this.
Zhou Hong nodded; "It is said that rumors cannot be believed, and the more time goes by, the more evil it becomes, the more exaggerated it becomes. But it seems that the story about Mrs. Xue is not false. If she is an ordinary little girl, Xue Wenyu would probably not come here to fight and bring her."
"Yes, Your Majesty, you didn't see it. When I was waiting for someone to go, Xue Wenyu had not set off yet, his wife actually urged him to say that the time for departure was coming. Also, before sending him away, she actually kissed Xue Wenyu in front of me, and kissed her here." Queen Shangguan Xia learned while using her fingers to her face and pointed a certain position.
"What? She really did this?" Zhou Hong was also surprised when he heard this.
Shangguan Xia nodded, what she saw with her own eyes, how could there be any falsehood?
Seeing that the emperor heard such gossip, the emperor was not impatient. Shangguan Xia continued to talk about what she saw and heard there, how Mrs. Xue treated them, and how she got along with the people below. The key point was that the layout was luxuriously arranged in the large tent where Mrs. Xue and her husband lived, and even the trivial matters of reeds inserted in the vase in the corner of the wall were not missed.
Outside the bedroom, Eunuch Chen was guarding the door and not allowing anyone to approach. He thought the queen and the emperor were talking about something very important.
But I didn't know that the couple with the highest status in Xixiang were talking about gossip.
"I am really stupid and can't tell whether her reaction and attitude is deliberately disguised or real. If she says disguised, she is really powerful, because her words and deeds are really too natural.
But if it weren't for disguise, what was the intention of her being so close to her and other concubines?" After almost all of her words, Shangguan Xia was ashamed again.
"By the way, also, didn't Ying'er say that the dishes they cook are delicious? I ate them now, and it's true. The ingredients like ours are much more delicious than those made in our imperial kitchen.
Ying'er, oh, he still stayed there and didn't go back with me." Shangguan Xia said, and suddenly realized that she shouldn't have said anything, such as the way her son had lunch there at noon.
Although it wasn't that he was greedy for his gentleness, it was the first time Shangguan Xia saw her son eat so deliciously.
It’s like, during the thirteen years of Xixiang, people have been deducted food.
Thinking of this, Shangguan Xia suddenly wanted to laugh.
Why didn’t I find out before that this son is so greedy!
Fortunately, Zhou Hong was reviewing the Queen's attitude and reaction about the Queen's description, and wanted to deduce the meaning of Yanguo. Therefore, he did not notice the Queen's concealment at all.
"By the way, do you remember what I told you? Have you tried it?" Zhou Hong suddenly remembered.
Shangguan Xia then remembered that she forgot to tell the emperor; "I said that when I said that, Duke Xue was present and had not left yet, so he refused." He also learned the original words to the emperor.
"He is quite straightforward. This is like something that a person who leads troops to fight." Zhou Hong was not angry.
...
Outside the city, Nanzhu was also puzzled. "Madam, why are you so enthusiastic about them? You even invited them to visit the big tent where you and your master live, and left them for lunch. However, they would agree, aren't you afraid that we will poison them if we eat."
Mu Yingbao smiled, "It's nothing, the reason is very simple. Your master leads troops to fight and keeps me here. You don't allow me to walk around. It's so boring if I don't have some fun. They just come here, and they feel quite pleasant when they come into contact with them. I don't think they hate them. So just have a harmonious relationship with them, so it's easy to pass the time."
"Madam, are you telling the truth? Although Nanzhu, I am a maid, you know that I have read books, so don't fool me." Nanzhu blinked her eyes and questioned her very much.
Mu Yingbao smiled even brighter, such a smart girl, she admitted that she did have other plans for the queen and others.
However, this matter is just a preliminary idea, so she doesn't want to tell...
