Chapter 442 Gentleness
Chapter 442 Tenderness
"Your Majesty hasn't gotten up yet?"
"Nothing."
"Then what should we do? All the civil and military officials are waiting in Tai Chi Hall."
"You ask me who I ask?"
The two officials were pushing and shoving each other in front of the Manlu Hall, but they both dared not go in.
It has been more than half a month since the Emperor returned to the palace.
In the past half month, the emperor has slept in the palace until noon every day before waking up. Forget about the small meetings in Liangyi Hall on weekdays, today is the big court meeting in Taiji Hall on the first day of the lunar month. If the emperor lets all officials wait,
Too long, who knows if those officials from the Ministry of Etiquette will use their big mouths to spray wildly in the court.
"You go in."
"Go away!"
"..."
Although the quarrel between the two was not loud, it still woke up the people inside.
Liu Yizhen woke up from her sleep with her arms around Queen Wang's smooth and round shoulders. When she heard the noise outside, she wanted to pull up the quilt and cover her head.
…
Where is the quilt?
Liu Yizhen looked up and found that the golden silk cotton that the palace maid Weaver had worked so hard to sew had been thrown several meters away, quite a distance from his arm.
"Exhortation?"
Queen Wang was also awakened by Liu Yizhen's movements. In her daze, she subconsciously wanted to pull up the quilt to cover her body, but just like Liu Yizhen, she also failed.
After blinking a few times, Queen Wang's smart eyes regained their clarity.
"ah."
When she saw Liu Yizhen looking at her up and down with wide eyes, Queen Wang immediately put her hands across her chest, and two blushes flew up on her cheeks: "Don't look!"
"We are an old married couple."
Liu Yizhen turned sideways and stretched out his arms to hug Queen Wang, buried his head in his arms and said, "Sleep a little longer."
Queen Wang's body suddenly stiffened. Even after these days of tenderness, her body was still extremely sensitive.
She pushed her chest carefully: "Your Majesty, you'd better get up. Just now I heard an official coming from outside to wake up Your Majesty."
The status of internal officials in Liu Yizhen's dynasty was not very high.
For example, when it comes to waking up the emperor, the internal officials of all dynasties have the right to directly enter the emperor's palace. Even when the emperor and his concubines are continuing the country and the country, the internal officials can stay and watch the battle...
But this tradition was undoubtedly broken by Liu Yizhen.
Liu Yizhen felt a chill when he thought that there was a man next to him...even a man without pillars watching him and his wife.
Even the palace maids would be cleared out, otherwise Liu Yizhen would always feel that his influence was exerted, which directly caused the internal officials and palace maids of the Liu Song court to be entangled in the matter of "the emperor getting up".
But Liu Yizhen couldn't care about this at the moment. He lazily got close to Queen Wang's body. The touch of his skin made Queen Wang's blood surge up again. Not only did her face turn redder, but her voice even stammered: "Your Majesty,
It’s really time to get up. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and there is a morning meeting..."
The morning meeting...
Liu Yizhen's eyelids twitched, but an invisible force made him fall silent again.
"His Majesty……"
Queen Wang hurriedly shook Liu Yizhen twice and said: "Your Majesty, you really have to go to court, otherwise, otherwise...I am afraid that someone will say that Your Majesty is slacking in government, or that Your Majesty is proud of his military achievements and has become arrogant..."
Queen Wang spoke very carefully. Seeing Liu Yizhen's brows furrowed, she quickly stopped talking and kept looking at Liu Yizhen with her big eyes blinking.
"Slow governance..."
Of course Liu Yizhen was not angry, he just felt a little tired.
After all, the war had been going on for more than a year, and all the soldiers and generals had gone to report it. Why would he, the only emperor, have to endure the hardships of going to court? He was really not a son of man.
However, Liu Yizhen did not confide these words to Queen Wang. Instead, he scratched the tip of Queen Wang's small and straight nose and said jokingly: "The queen wants to be a good queen and come to be a good housekeeper for me."
Queen Wang had turned into a steam engine at this moment and quickly shook her head: "No, no."
"I just read some books recently, and the book said this..."
Queen Wang doesn't like reading very much, but her little sister Xie Guifei is a little bookworm, so it's normal for her to take her to read some strange books.
Liu Yizhen suddenly thought of something: "Then what you learned last night was also learned from books?"
"Dip! Dip! Dip!"
A huge sound of steam rang out from above Queen Wang's head, and the large amount of white smoke combined with her red skin almost made her lose the ability to speak.
Seeing that the other party was about to "explode", Liu Yizhen quickly changed the subject to calm the anger of Queen Wang: "Is there anything unsatisfactory in the palace recently?"
Queen Wang finally regained her senses after hearing Liu Yizhen ask about Liu An, and replied in a low voice: "That's not true. All food and clothing in the palace are taken care of by the Queen Mother and Guo Xiuhua, and I don't have much interference."
Empress Dowager Sun and the Guo family are obviously the "actual controllers" of the harem, and Empress Wang is not really interested in those bits and pieces.
"But there's one thing."
Empress Wang mentioned to Liu Yizhen: "The Queen Mother often called Helian into the palace for lectures. Before, it was only once a month, but now she is summoned once every few days. Sister Helian has told me about this several times. It's really
strangeness."
Queen Wang didn't understand, but Liu Yizhen immediately understood the twists and turns involved.
My feelings are that my mother is helping me stabilize the harem...
Fighting with Helian Bobo by herself would naturally cause the greatest harm to the Helian family. The Queen Mother was probably afraid that Helian family would not be able to think about it or had other thoughts, so she called Helian family more and more frequently to lecture him.
After that, the Helian family probably went to Queen Wang to show their loyalty or had some other intention. However, Queen Wang's IQ seemed to be unable to understand all the things involved...
"I understand. I will go and explain this to the Queen Mother."
"in addition……"
Liu Yizhen's topic shifted to Liu An again——
"I heard that he hasn't been weaned yet. That bastard is over a year old and it's time for him to be weaned."
"How can that be done!"
When Liu An was mentioned, Queen Wang, who was so cute just now, suddenly transformed into a lioness protecting her calf and argued for Liu An: "An'er is still young and there is no shortage of wet nurses. How can we let him go now?"
What about weaning?”
Seeing Queen Wang's attitude, Liu Yizhen swallowed back all the words in his mind about "don't spoil your children".
Don't argue with a mother about her children unless you want to piss her off...
Seeing that the rising sun was shining a little more of its own light, Queen Wang urged again: "Your Majesty, it's really time to go to court."
"don't want."
"His Majesty!"
"I said no, unless..."
Liu Yizhen let go of the arm holding Queen Wang and stretched out his body: "Unless you use the knowledge you learned from the book last night."
Queen Wang covered her chest and sat up shyly: "Then your Majesty must keep your words."
"OK!"
"..."
"..."
"..."
