Chapter 67 Torment
Yong'an Palace.
The empress dowager just stopped her anger. She looked up at Xiao Zhengting, and finally saw a smile on her face, saying, "It is not easy to meet like this now. Today, the King of Yue would rather stay in Yong'an Palace for dinner."
Xiao Zhengting nodded and responded.
The empress dowager stroked the tip of the armor and stared at Xiao Zhengting, wondering what she was thinking.
Xiao Zhengting seemed to have not noticed it, and only looked straight ahead. After a while, he heard him say, "Why is the Lian Qiao who is always serving by the Empress Dowager missing? Could it be that something happened during the period when the Hu Ben Army was guarding?"
The Queen Mother paused and asked back, "Okay, why did you ask about such a girl? Could it be that King Yue treats this girl..."
Xiao Zhengting laughed out loud and said, "My son has no other meaning."
Seeing that he looked open and had no other intentions, the Empress Dowager said, "I made some mistakes two days ago, and the Ai family sent her outside to serve her."
Xiao Zhengting nodded.
At this time, a palace servant came to the door tremblingly and bowed and said, "Empress Dowager, the emperor and the empress are here."
The empress dowager's face became dark and she didn't care about talking to Xiao Zhengting. She gritted her teeth hard and did not sneer. She said, "Then you don't invite me in? Why are you doing while standing there? Are you waiting to be replaced?"
The palace people shrank down and lowered their heads, and the person who came to report the news immediately turned around and invited the emperor to come in.
However, when Xiao Zhengting heard this, his heart tightened, and a thoughtful look flashed across his face.
His back is facing the door.
Until the sound of footsteps gradually approached, the palace people knelt down and bowed: "I have met the emperor and the empress."
Xiao Zhengting closed his eyes, then turned around and bowed and said, "Emperor, Empress."
After saying that, Xiao Zhengting stood up and was slightly stunned.
It turns out that when you are close, it looks better.
She wore a brightly colored jacket and skirt, and her whole body was filled with brightness and agility. She only had flowers on her head, not wearing a hairpin ring, and two round beads were adorned to her ears, which were so watery. The trace of fairy aura seemed to be integrated with her, and it would not make people feel arrogant, but would only make people admire her more.
Xiao Zhengting quickly moved his eyes away, and he suddenly didn't even dare to listen to her.
"According to the rules, we always come to see the Queen Mother." Xiao Yi said lightly, patting Yang Yaoer's arm: "Go and serve tea for the Queen Mother."
As he said that, he took the hand stove from Yang Yaoer's arms in good manner.
Liangui next to him took over, held Yang Yaoer's wrist, and accompanied her towards the direction of the empress dowager.
The Empress Dowager sat upright in an instant, and she stared at Yang Yaoer and almost changed her face.
Is this the fool?
This is that stupid guy!
OK OK OK OK!
No wonder, no wonder the emperor protects a mountain village woman like this! It turns out that such a girl can be raised in the mountains and fields! If I had known this, why wouldn't Huaerrui have to be there! She just beat and manipulate a fool... No, this fool is not so stupid.
Thinking of this made her feel even more regretful.
In a blink of an eye, Yang Yaoer walked up to her.
The Queen Mother stared at her face, and couldn't speak.
Fortunately, she was no longer the concubine who needed to compete for the emperor's favor, but even so, as a woman, she felt great jealousy.
Li Gong is a rare good look in her eyes.
But what is in front of you?
This is the only beauty in Beijing?
The Queen Mother pressed down on the displeasure and jealousy in her heart and said, "There is no need to serve tea." She clapped her palms and asked someone to take a few boxes: "This is for the Queen, the Queen in the future..." The corner of the Queen Mother's mouth curled up and said, "It is necessary to be virtuous and generous, know how to take more concubines for the Emperor and spread the branches and leaves for the royal family."
However, Yang Yaoer couldn't understand a single word, and only knew that those boxes were for her, so she said "um" lightly.
The empress dowager secretly scolded "no rules" in her heart, but when she thought of the emperor's previous warning, she still shut up and did not scold her.
Several palace servants came forward to take the box, and Xiao Yi said, "Come here."
So Yang Yaoer turned around obediently and returned to his side.
Seeing this, the queen mother became even more angry. It took only a moment before the fool was obedient to him.
Xiao Yi turned his head to look at Xiao Zhengting and smiled slowly. His skin was fair and even pale. When he smiled, it would only make people feel gloomy and fearful. He said, "The King of Yue must be staying in Yong'an Palace and accompanying the Queen Mother to have dinner. I will not disturb the deep love between the two mothers and sons."
After saying that, he held Yang Yaoer's hand and turned around and walked out.
The others followed.
In a short while, most of the Yong'an Palace was empty.
The Empress Dowager then sneered and said, "This is for people outside to see, so that people can't find his handle. But he doesn't need to be proud. The Hu Ben Army was guarding him before, and the Ai family had no choice but to do so. Now that he has no excuse to trap Yong'an Palace again, it's time for the Ai family to deal with him..."
Xiao Zhengting did not respond.
He felt tired even when he was tossing like this.
In the past, I thought I could still deal with the Queen Mother, but now I feel that it is too tiring to comfort her stupid thoughts every day.
After the empress dowager said something happy, Xiao Zhengting bowed and said, "Farewell to make a long-term plan."
The empress dowager stood up, got off the couch, and walked slowly to Xiao Zhengting. She stared at him and cursed with a smile: "What good way do you have?"
Xiao Zhengting met her gaze and felt something was wrong, but he still smiled according to his suspicion: "There is no such thing at the moment, but the method is always something that people think of."
The Queen Mother closed her eyes and said disappointedly: "Forget it, let's have a meal."
Xiao Zhengting accompanied the Empress Dowager to have a meal and left Yong'an Palace.
When he came out, he ran into Lian Qiao at the door.
In the past, the arrogant palace maid, who used her nostrils to look at people, was holding the bucket beside her, holding a rag in her hands, kneeling on the ground, scrubbing the ground bit by bit.
When Xiao Zhengting stepped on his boots with star-moon patterns, Lian Qiao raised her head and blinked at Xiao Zhengting, and tears fell out.
"Prince."
Xiao Zhengting took out the veil and handed it to her, as if a kind and affectionate prince. He asked, "Where did you do something wrong that you angered your mother just now? Why are you so ignorant?"
Lian Qiao cried and said, "A few days ago, the emperor arrived at Yong'an Palace and did not say anything else. Then, he suddenly praised me with the Empress Dowager, saying that I was a good person, and then called me a name, and asked me to go and see the emperor respectfully... After that, the Empress Dowager would not be happy."
Xiao Zhengting smiled and said, "I believe it is not because of this reason that you have not served you wholeheartedly and reflect on yourself. In the future, you may have the opportunity to serve in front of your mother."
After saying that, Xiao Zhengting walked away without any nostalgia.
This matter is very simple.
The little emperor seemed to have a casual word and pointed it on Lian Qiao's head. The empress dowager was naturally unhappy and felt that this girl was valued by the emperor. The empress dowager was a very suspicious person. Even if she was just so unhappy, it was enough for her to drive Lian Qiao away in repeated doubts day by day.
But Xiao Zhengting didn't care about this. He was thinking... The little emperor suddenly said that he would not be unable to get along with a palace maid. Then he had another purpose.
Thinking of what the Empress Dowager said, the little emperor warned her that she would change her house. So the little emperor knew that Lian Qiao was his person, so he deliberately told her to the empress dowager to provoke their relationship. Unfortunately, the empress dowager only understood the meaning on the shallow level and was only concerned about being angry with the little emperor. She would not even consider other intentions...
Xiao Zhengting sighed softly.
No matter what, it can be seen that everyone has looked down on this young new emperor.
Xiao Zhengting even thought further now.
If the little emperor is really smart, then the empress dowager's various thoughts are even more ridiculous at this moment. After being besieged by the Hu Ben Army, she can still sit here well, not because the little emperor is afraid of the Li family, but because he needs the empress dowager to sit well in the palace.
What he said about replacing the palace servants of Yong'an Palace was probably really just for intimidation.
Because he had to continue to create the illusion of the empress dowager's power... In this way, the court officials continued to warn the empress dowager and ignored everything else.
At that moment, Xiao Zhengting even had some thoughts.
It would be better to let the empress dowager die...
Thinking of this, a hint of sharp coldness appeared in his eyes.
The old woman, day by day, actually had some thoughts about him that she shouldn't have.
At some point, raindrops slowly drifted from the sky.
Xiao Zhengting strode forward in the rain.
When he left the palace, he grabbed the reins of the horse. The servant beside him realized that the King of Yue had actually broken the jade pendant hanging around his waist in half. He used so much force that his fingers were bleeding beads.
He threw the broken jade pendant to the servant and said, "Go back to home."
...
Yang Yaoer lay in front of the window and stared at the continuous raindrops.
Mama Liu smiled and said, "It is rare to see such rain in winter, which shows that it is brought by the blessing of the Empress."
"It's raining, is it a blessing?"
"It's only when there is water to grow all things." Xiao Yi said lightly. After saying that, he walked forward, closed the window mercilessly with one hand, and hugged Yang Yaoer in the waist with the other hand.
Yang Yao'er suddenly soared into the air, her mouth slightly opened, and could only let Xiao Yi carry her to the bed.
"Sleep." Xiao Yi said. Just one word came out of his mouth, and at first glance it seemed very unkind.
Yang Yaoer is in excellent spirits, but everyone around her is thinking about her coming. Kui Shui and she is weak.
Madam Liu said several times that she should let the Empress rest.
At this moment, Xiao Yi took action himself and pressed her on the bed.
Yang Yaoer never dared to disobey Xiao Yi's intentions, so she had to lie down and spread her arms: "My, hand stove."
The bed was cold and uncomfortable.
Xiao Yi paused, lifted the quilt, and his wide palm reached into the quilt, penetrated through her clothes, and finally stayed on her abdomen.
Her belly was slippery, and Xiao Yi unconsciously stroked it.
Then he saw Yang Yaoer clamping her legs and twisting her belly again. Her eyes were lit up in an instant, and she whispered: "I want it."
Xiao Yi: “…”
Didn’t she really come to anger him on purpose?
