Seventy-two bowl of soup (nine)

To be honest, it doesn't matter how he messed around when he went to court, anyway, he is the emperor. But once the mother found out about this, the cheeky little emperor would inevitably feel furious. He quietly took a step back and was about to escape. Unexpectedly, the eunuchs and supervisor beside the mother saw him, first grinned, then shouted in a sharp voice: "Your Majesty is here--"

You arrive as soon as you arrive. What can you do if you call so loudly? What's the use of it? The little emperor was whispering in his heart, but he was calm on his face. He nodded to the general manager. He walked around the screen and saw Empress Dowager Wei sitting at the table, looking at him expressionlessly.

The little emperor had long been used to this expression. He knew better than anyone else. His appearance could not prove a person's good or bad. Looking at the indifferent mother's mother, she was actually gentler than anyone else, but some seemingly gentle people were crueler than anyone else.

He still retained the habit of being a child, but he was wearing a dragon robe and could not sit on the ground and play tricks like he did when he was a child. Moreover, there were many eunuchs present, and the little emperor was still shameless, and he was in front of the queen mother again.

"My mother, I'm back!" He sat next to Empress Dowager Wei, took a piece of snack on the plate in front of her, and stared at Huazhi with his eyes narrowed and stared at Huazhi: "Aunt Huazhi is saying bad things about me again?"

Huazhi watched him grow up, not afraid of him at all, and said with a smile: "I told the Empress that you have grown up and you are at the age of choosing a concubine!"

When the little emperor heard this, he immediately forgot everything he thought about and his mouth twitched: "Those old stubborn people won't come to find their mother, right?"

"They are not annoyed by the people who come to eat three meals a day, and the Ai family is annoyed." Empress Dowager Wei was indeed very annoyed. The ministers did not dare to provoke the little emperor for fear of being beaten. There were not so many taboos when they came to her. After all, she was cruel, but she was only to people with dissent. These ministers were all loyal, and Empress Dowager Wei could not ask people to pull them out to beat the board like the little emperor.

They are all pillars of the country, what kind of tradition is it?

The little emperor slapped the table and stood up: "I'm going to beat them!"

"emperor."

The little emperor immediately stood up and dared not move, and he looked eagerly: "Mother Queen."

"What they said is right, you are indeed at the age of choosing a concubine."

The little emperor really doesn't want to choose a concubine. He thinks he is still a child. If he chooses a concubine, in the words of the ministers, he will really grow up. Then won't he be so willful and act like a scoundrel again in the future? How can that be done! "Mother, I heard that my father married you at the age of twenty."

He rarely mentioned the late emperor, and Empress Dowager Wei never took the initiative to tell him that now when he heard the young emperor mention the late emperor, her eyes became vivid. After many years, she never thought of that person again. After a while, Empress Dowager Wei said, "How can the late emperor compare with you? He had just as soon as he ascended the throne, and his foundation was unstable and he had no support from his foreign family. You are much happier than him. But even so, he had several concubines in his early years, and the Ai family just took the title of his wife."

The little emperor stared at Empress Dowager Wei strangely, always feeling that there was something in her tone that she didn't understand. "Mother, do you want me to choose a concubine?"

"You are the emperor, not the Ai family." And she has no desire for hugging her grandson or not. She can do anything. As long as the little emperor is happy, she can do anything. "But how long can you delay this matter? It's time to choose sooner or later."

The little emperor scratched his head: "It's not that I don't know, but they always force me, the less I want to do this."

Maybe he inherited the cold-blooded side of the mother's bones, and he had no expectation for the so-called love. He grabbed a lot of beautiful palace maids in the palace, but he didn't like any of them. He had already understood the matter between men and women, but he had no demand for that. For the little emperor, national affairs were the most important.

Like his father, he was a natural emperor, but compared to his father, the little emperor was more upright, tolerant and principled.

Well, although it's a little bit nonsense sometimes.

Empress Dowager Wei smiled slightly. She never smiled, and occasionally smiled at the little emperor. Just like when she was a child, she pinched the little emperor's face with her hands: "When you are in your position, do what you do, you must always remember that you are the emperor." It is okay to be willful, arrogant or even moody, but you must always understand what the most important thing is.

It is the country, the world, and the people.

It's not love, nor self.

Since you have enjoyed such glory and admired by all the people, you have to repay them and should not be the only one.

The little emperor listened to Empress Dowager Wei very much. He went back and thought about it for another night. The next day he announced that he would choose a concubine. The ministers were moved and burst into tears. They knelt down and shouted that His Majesty was wise, which made the little emperor inexplicable. He reflected on whether he was too uncontrollable for normal times, so it was rare to adopt the advice of the old stubborn people and let them look like a ghost?

The Ministry of Rites handled the election of concubines, and Empress Dowager Wei did not participate. She stopped talking about the world when she handed over the government to the young emperor. In the past, many people thought that Si Chen had a strange intention, but who knew that she actually did not value power too seriously?

She just...want to take away the most important thing of that person, that's all.

Your Majesty, you lost, can you see it?

The Ministry of Rites is very efficient in doing things. After reading the list, Empress Dowager Wei thought there was no problem. The queen and the four concubines were chosen by the little emperor themselves. They should be the type he likes, right? No matter how you say they are, they are all people who can spend their lives together, and they should be able to enjoy them.

But Empress Dowager Wei may not have thought that the little emperor did not choose according to the type he liked. He thought that the portraits could tell what kind of energy could be seen. He simply hung it on the beam, grabbed the dart with both hands and shot, and the dart said it was a position, and whoever he hit it would be.

Fortunately, these noble ladies don’t know how they got their position, otherwise they would have to cry to death and feel that they were insulted.

When they went to pay tribute to the empress dowager on the first day, the concubines were nervous. Who wouldn't know the reputation of this Iron-blooded Empress Dowager? It is said that he was an extremely powerful figure when he was young. The reason why His Majesty's dragon throne was so steadily, the barbarians on the border did not dare to invade, and the reason why the people were able to live and work in peace is all due to the Empress Dowager Wei.

However, Empress Dowager Wei has not appeared for many years, and they have been kept in the deep boudoir, so they have never been fortunate to see him. Therefore, everyone is panicked. What would the Empress Dowager look like? Will it be too fierce? If they perform poorly, will they be beheaded? I heard that the Empress Dowager of the time cut off a series of heads without blinking.

Queen Mother Wei didn't know what these little girls were thinking. If she knew, she would definitely show it - forget it, she would definitely have no expression.

After the emperor died, she no longer had any expression. The person she loved was dead, as if she had taken away her soul. Now it was not Wei Qinghuan, but Empress Dowager Wei.

To the concubines' surprise, the Empress Dowager looked very young and even better than them in terms of beauty. However, her cold feeling was heart-wrenching, but she did not have the legendary murderous feeling.

Empress Dowager Wei had no idea about these "daughter-in-laws". She just said a few words to them to serve the little emperor well in the future, and asked them to retreat and not to pay tribute to the queen in the future, including the queen.

But the queen insisted on coming every day. When Huazhi refused on the first day, she still had tears in her eyes and asked Huazhi tremblingly: "What's wrong with me? Isn't it that my mother doesn't want to see me?"

But Empress Dowager Wei is not someone who is moved by tears. She doesn't want to do anything, even the late emperor can't force it, let alone a crying queen?

Sometimes she vaguely remembers the past and feels that she has been the queen, but she never loves to cry like this, because crying is useless. Those who don’t love you will not pity you because of your tears. Even if you marry your beloved as you wish, you will not end up with any good ending.

The queen was turned away after taking a lot of money, but finally she stopped coming. But after a few months of this life, she came to the Queen Mother crying and threatened that if the Queen Mother didn't see her, she would hit her head to death!

Huazhi had no choice but to come back and report to Empress Dowager Wei. She thought the Empress Tieshi would not care about it, but she asked the Empress to come in.

The queen cried as soon as she came in, "Mother! Mother!"

It can be seen that it was a girl who was being fond of her at home, so she would feel uncomfortable and unable to eat or sleep even if she was not satisfied. Empress Dowager Wei lowered her eyes: "What kind of morality is the mother of a country who makes a loud noise outside?"

The queen widened her tears: "How can the mother speak like this? Can't the mother feel the pain in my heart?"

What kind of suffering can you have? Empress Dowager Wei glanced at her indifferently. She knew that the little emperor treated the queen very well and would never make any mistakes. The queen was born in a famous family with a scholarly family and would not fight for power. Naturally, the family would not stand firm. All the concubines in the harem were obedient. Why did she cry and she couldn't live?

Seeing that Empress Wei did not take her words, the queen sniffed: "Mother, I am really sad. After thinking about it, there is no one in the palace except Mother, which is really heartbreaking."

Huazhi felt that she could not sit still, otherwise she would not be able to continue chatting, so she continued: "Why did the Queen cry?"

She thought of many possibilities in her heart, such as some people framed, some wanted to frame, and some were ready to frame, but who knew that the first sentence that the Empress had squeezed out from her nose after crying for a long time was: "Your Majesty, he went to Concubine De's place last night!"

As soon as this sentence came out, Huazhi almost didn't hold the teapot for Queen Mother Wei to change tea. The corners of her mouth twitched, thinking that she had heard it wrong, "The Empress is so sad because His Majesty didn't stay overnight in Fengyi Palace last night?"

"Your Majesty was not like this before, Your Majesty has always been with me!" The queen said with wide eyes and said, even being injured is so naive.
