Chapter 10 Visit

Emperor Chu Lingchen's residence was called Qianzheng Hall, located due east of the entire palace. It was already afternoon, and the bright sunlight fell on the towering plaque in front of the door, making people feel a renewed sense of solemnity.

The guard at the entrance of the palace was also quite strict. When the guard saw Yan Yuan, he bowed politely, but did not get out of the way. Instead, he said stiffly: "Mr. Mu from the Royal Hospital is performing an acupuncture for your majesty. It is inconvenient for your majesty at the moment." Please forgive me for meeting anyone!"

Yan Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Am I anyone else?"

The guard knelt in front of Yan Yuan: "I also obey orders, please forgive me!"

Yan Yuan thought for a while and said: "I have brought a famous folk doctor with me. Can I ask the Holy Master whether he allows famous doctors to come inside for consultation?"

The guard said: "Please forgive me!"

Yan Yuan asked: "Then when can Dr. Mu finish the acupuncture?"

The guard said: "Please forgive me!"

He was obviously strong-willed, but his face was already livid. He had obviously been told to stop talking, so as not to make too many mistakes.

Yan Yuan curled her lips: "I understand."

Although she had known for a long time that the emperor was not satisfied with the marriage and even opposed it fiercely, and she also knew that her situation after entering the palace would probably not be like a fish in water, but from the wedding night to now, she had not even seen the emperor's face. Never thought of it.

It seems that Chu Lingchen really hates her, the queen who forced herself on her, and doesn't even bother to pretend to be harmonious on the surface.

It's a pity that although she is willing to be a grown-up beauty, her boss is waiting to see what she does. She still has to pretend that she fell in love with the emperor at first sight and was "obsessed with him for several years" before finally marrying into the palace. .

Yan Yuan raised her head and looked at the golden plaque on the plaque. She looked at it carefully for a while and said softly: "Can I wait here for a while? If Dr. Mu comes out, I can inquire about my condition."

The guard probably didn't expect that she was not thin-skinned, so he was stunned for a moment. He opened his mouth and said stiffly: "...Okay."

Yan Yuan whispered: "Thank you very much."

After she finished speaking, she turned around, walked slowly out for more than a dozen steps, and found an unobtrusive place to stand at the door of Qianzheng Palace.

"Empress..." Xiaoyu was so confused that his whole little face twisted into a ball.

The guards at the door of Qianzheng Palace remained motionless, their peripheral vision fell on Yan Yuan, and their brows furrowed even more tightly: If she insisted on breaking through the door, they would have reason to stop her, but the place where she stood was neither far nor close, so it was considered fair. Don't go to the palace to cause trouble...

How should they report this situation to the Holy One?

You can’t really expel the Queen, right?

While the guard was at a loss, Yan Yuan had already found the only shaded place in front of the door, comfortably squinting his eyes and waiting quietly.

This was the reason why she insisted on having lunch before going out. She had plenty of time and energy, so she pretended to be an infatuated and desolate watcher of her husband at the door of Qianzheng Palace.

It was mid-afternoon, and the sun was just right, shining warmly on her body. She had eaten and drank enough, and her body was warm.

Apart from being sleepy, everything was comfortable.

…

At the same time, in Qianzheng Palace, the palace maid gently lit a stick of incense.

There were no windows in the bedroom, and a snow-white rabbit was quietly hiding in the corner, nibbling on a book.

The dim room was filled with the faint smell of alcohol. Chu Lingchen, the emperor of Yan State, was lying on a soft couch under the window with his eyes closed. Hearing the sound, he opened his sleepy eyes and stretched out his hand to rub them. own forehead.

"Your Majesty is awake?"

A gentle voice sounded slowly.

The beauty behind him had ink-like hair, and her slender jade fingers wandered from his shoulders to his temples. Her voice was soft and gentle: "Your Majesty, the Queen is still waiting outside the palace. Your Majesty, really don't want to go and see her?"

However, the man on the bed turned a blind eye and even closed his eyes.

The beauty leaned down and whispered in his ear: "It's windy outside. I heard that the queen has always been weak. I'm afraid she will catch the wind and cold if she waits for a long time."

She was like a weak and boneless cat, leaning on his shoulder, carefully observing the face of the monarch in front of her.

Yesterday was the day when the new queen entered the palace. The emperor was supposed to have flowers and candles at the bridal chamber in the queen's palace. She was unwilling to do so, so she lied about feeling unwell and sent someone to the Qianzheng Palace to get some fresh air. She didn't expect that the emperor would really show off to her. In Bixi Palace, the new queen was left to dry in the palace all night.

She was naturally happy in her heart, but she could also imagine that the situation ahead today would be treacherous and the undercurrents might be turbulent.

Such favor is like honey on the tip of a knife.

She neither wanted to completely offend the Queen Mother, nor did she want to be blamed for disturbing the harem in the historian's writings, but she also wanted to leave an undeniable good impression in front of Chu Lingchen, so she walked to the couch and knelt down in front of him.

"Your Majesty treats my concubine with deep love, which is her blessing."

She walked up to the monarch, knelt down, and leaned on his knees. She looked up at him and comforted him softly:

"But if Your Majesty ruins the friendship with the Queen Mother for my concubine, it will be my concubine's fault."

Chu Lingchen finally opened his eyes, but in just a short moment, the hazy drunkenness in his eyes had dissipated, and only a faint sarcasm settled in his eyes, looking at the beauty with a half-smile.

He said: "Why, now even you have to say these hypocritical clichés?"

The beauty's expression froze, and she was so nervous that beads of sweat broke out on her palms: "...I don't dare."

Of course she knew that this in-law was forcibly promised to the emperor by the Queen Mother, not because a mother hoped that her son could start a family and establish a career as soon as possible, but to obtain the help of Dingbei Hou to ensure that the power she supported could be as stable as Mount Tai in the previous dynasty. , so that she can continue the glory she had when she was behind the curtain to listen to politics.

They are not mother and son, but political enemies.

Originally, the superficial friendship between mother and son could still be maintained, but the emperor's stay at Bixi Palace last night had already pierced the last layer of window paper.

This wasn't what she was worried about.

She raised her head and stretched out her fingertips to gently touch the emperor's brow: "But the Queen is the daughter of Marquis Dingbei after all."

Although Yan Zhou, Marquis of Dingbei, had relinquished military power many years ago, half of the generals in the court were once under his command. If he had second thoughts, the court would never have peace. This is why the Queen Mother chose to be an ally with him.

I heard that Miss Yan is the only daughter of Marquis Dingbei and has always been the apple of Marquis Yan's eye. After last night, I am afraid that Marquis Yan will not sit idly by and let his daughter suffer such injustice for nothing. He will definitely have some problems in the court. Every action she took was directed at her clansmen who were serving as servants in the court.

This is probably what the Queen Mother is looking forward to seeing.

The beauty sighed leisurely.

Chu Lingshen's breathing paused, and her eyes fell on the beauty thoughtfully.

He said: "Do you remember that your clan brother who was transferred to the capital city defense army half a year ago served as a captain at the border for many years?"

The beauty replied: "Yes."

Chu Ling said calmly: "It's been half a year, and my official position has almost changed."

That's enough.

The beauty's eyebrows were lowered, and a faint smile appeared at the corners of her eyes.

"I would like to thank your majesty for your kindness on behalf of my brother."

The beauty stood up and returned to her original position.

She was neither too far nor too close. She just ensured that a trace of the powder on her body could fall into the emperor's breath, letting the gentle breath slowly linger. Her white hands slowly slid along the emperor's clothes and fell on him.

A gentle squeeze on the emperor's neck.

Today's goal has been achieved, and she no longer needs to speak.

We are just human beings, and it is inevitable that we will always have some bad thoughts.

"I heard that the Queen was born to be the most beautiful girl in the country, and she fell in love with His Majesty at first sight when she was young. She has been in love with His Majesty for several years and cannot understand her." She leaned down and whispered in the Emperor's ear, "Does Your Majesty really not want to see her?

?”

Chu Lingchen had already closed her eyes again.

After a long time, a cold voice sounded in the silent palace: "No."
