Chapter 80 Xu Slag
The sun shines on the eaves and buildings. Xu Bu Ling passes through the corridor and arrives at the Queen Mother's bedroom.
The big cauldron has not been removed yet. I don’t know if it is because it is too heavy and it is difficult to move around, or if it is prepared for any trouble.
On the steps of the bedroom, the Queen Mother finally put on her clothes.
She wore a red palace skirt with golden silk on her waist outlined phoenix patterns. The golden hairpin was inserted obliquely between the hair bun. Her gourd-like figure was outlined just right, looking solemn but not blind. She was between her thick and majestic palace, as if there was only this little red.
We have met each other three times recently. The Empress Dowager has not worn clothes twice. She suddenly wears so neatly. Xu Buling didn't recognize her. She secretly compared her. In fact, she still looks better if she doesn't wear them, but she obviously can't say this.
"See the Queen Mother."
Xu Buling walked slowly to the front and raised his hand to pay a respect for his junior.
The Empress Dowager nodded gently, recalled the usual appearance of meeting before, and then hooked it with her fingers: "Xiao Buling, come here quickly." However, the words were no longer as pampered and intimate as before, and they were a bit of a distance.
Xu Buling was not surprised and followed the Empress Dowager, and did not take the initiative to get close to him.
The two came to the main hall to sit down, putting their legs under the table as usual. It was a little cold in early spring in February, and the stove was still burning.
The palace maids brought all kinds of dishes to the table and brought warm Duanyu Shao over. The empress dowager waved her hand and then retreated and closed the door.
The magnificent main hall quieted down and the atmosphere suddenly changed.
The empress dowager's dignified and quiet face disappeared without a trace in an instant. The palace shoe kicked her lightly on the leg under Xu Buling's table:
"You sit down."
“…”
Xu Buling shook his legs back and sat upright:
"The Queen Mother hasn't calmed down yet?"
The empress dowager pursed her lips and apologized last time, but she was still angry, but she couldn't leave the matter of taking advantage.
Moreover, she misunderstood Xu Buling last time and bit Xu Buling fiercely. In the past few days, Xu Buling didn't see any movement. She waited for the left and did not come, and she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep well. She thought Xu Buling was angry, so she naturally became angry.
It probably means, "You dare to be angry with me!"
The Empress Dowager sat in the main seat, hesitated a little, and looked sideways at Xu Buling's wrist:
"Last time I was accidentally, have you healed?"
Xu Buling lifted his sleeves and revealed his white wrists: "It's just a skin injury, it's okay to rest for a few days, so the Queen Mother doesn't have to take it to heart."
The Queen Mother relaxed a little bit, thought for a while, then showed her elder's demeanor, spreading her palms with a cold face:
"Give your bellyband back to me."
Xu Buling's face froze and blinked:
"It seems...forgot to bring it."
Bang—
The Queen Mother slapped her hand on the table, staring at her beautiful eyes full of annoyance:
"Forgot to bring it? Are you playing tricks on me?"
Xu Buling shook his head and chuckled: "I was anxious to leave the palace last time. I didn't dare to take the empress dowager's personal belongings all the time. After I went back, I didn't know where to hide it. I went back and searched for a long time but couldn't find it..."
Not found?
So casual?
The empress dowager's chest was undulating and slapped on the table again: "How can you do this? Only the lotus hidden carp in this palace. If it is lost or spread, how can I be a human being?"
"Don't worry, the Empress Dowager, Prince Su's Mansion is very tightly guarded and will not be thrown away. I just forgot it. I'll go back and find it."
The Empress Dowager couldn't help but think about it for a while. Her face suddenly sank, and she leaned closer and said nervously:
"I won't be seen by Hongluan, right?"
Xu Buling shook his head and comforted him: "No, if Aunt Lu saw it, my leg would have been broken."
The Queen Mother was so angry that she laughed.
Do you still know that your legs will be broken?
If you don’t castrate you, it’s Hongluan who has a good temper...
He glared at Xu Buling for a moment, and seeing that it was not a false statement, the empress dowager had to say coldly:
"Since I haven't found it, why are you going to the palace?"
Xu Buling's expression was calm and picked up the prepared gift from the side:
"I offended the Empress Dowager a few days ago. After I went back, I wanted to apologize to the Empress Dowager, so I prepared some small items. However, I have been thinking about the fact that the Dragon Lock Gu has no medicine to solve these days. I was upset and accidentally forgot my bellyband. Please forgive me..."
“Yes…”
The queen mother was half-believing and half-doubted, and always felt that the bellyband was hidden by Xu Buling and refused to give it to her. However, if Xu Buling did not give it to her, she seemed to have no choice. After all, the initiative in this matter was in Xu Buling's hands.
The Empress Dowager hesitated for a little, had to put down the matter first, and looked at the wine jar, rouge box, and snack box.
The rouge box is easy to say. I mentioned it to Xu Buling before, but the box of snacks surprised the Queen Mother a little.
She likes to eat candied fruits made by an old shop in Chang'an. She naturally recognizes that the shop specially prepared for the nobles and nobles. This is obviously bought from the shop she likes.
"Xu Buling, how did you know that this palace likes to eat this?"
The Queen Mother took the dessert box in front of her, opened it and looked at it. There were a variety of prettiest fruits, and she remembered the sour and sweet taste, and naturally she tasted her mouth and slid her lips quietly.
Xu Buling saw this very subtle movement and felt a little at ease in his heart, with a more casual expression:
"The Empress Dowager has been living in the deep palace for a long time and has not been able to go out for a walk all year round. I asked Aunt Lu and prepared it specially."
The empress dowager suddenly realized, thought for a moment, leaned closer: "Hongluan really told you what I like to eat? With her temper, she should deliberately say something that I don't like, such as peaches and frozen persimmons..."
It seems that the Queen Mother knows the personality of her plastic best friend very well.
Xu Buling shook his head and chuckled slightly, and looked around and looked around, looking afraid of being heard. He walked closer to the empress dowager and whispered:
"Of course I didn't dare to ask directly. What I said at the time was, 'The Queen Mother didn't want to eat, and the dishes cooked in the kitchen were not as delicious as Aunt Lu's. Is the Queen Mother who doesn't like to eat or has no appetite?' Then Aunt Lu said that the Queen Mother was greedy and told me all the things the Queen Mother liked."
“…”
The empress dowager was stunned. After reacting, she laughed "sneer-" and raised her hand and poked Xu Buling's shoulder with her finger:
"You are so heartless, Hongluan is meticulous to you. You are actually clever and clichés to let her know that she must hang you up and beat you..."
Even though she said that, the Queen Mother obviously felt a little happy and proud in her eyes, and she looked like she had the upper hand in front of her best friend.
Xu Buling wanted this effect. He raised his eyebrows and whispered: "Isn't this to apologize to the Queen Mother? The Queen Mother and I know about this, but don't tell Aunt Lu, otherwise I won't want to go out again in my life..."
"Yeah~!"
The Queen Mother knew Mrs. Lu’s temper best and nodded and smiled: “Don’t worry, I’m so strict. If you say you don’t tell others about your poem, no one else will know it, and Hongluan won’t tell you.”
