Quick Wear: The female supporting role makes a comeback by giving birth to a child

Zhou Chen felt as if he had been hit hard in the heart.

He came back in a daze, ate a bowl of noodle soup in a daze, and was told to go back to the house and lie down.

But he did not sleep well that night.

Early the next morning, after the rooster crowed three times, Zhou Chen heard noises outside.

He got up, opened the door and went out.

Lu Yuanshan and his companions have already started practicing martial arts in the yard.

Seeing him come out, Lu Yuanshan seemed not to notice the dark circles under his eyes and greeted him directly:

"Awake? Great, come over and practice with me! And let me see if your martial arts skills have been neglected in the past few years."

Zhou Chen could only suppress his complicated emotions and follow along.

After the morning exercise, I was sweating.

Lu Yuanshan patted his arm and said, "You need to train your lower body strength and arms. Let's go and eat first."

Zhou Chen: ...

He really wanted to say that he was already better than Anshi, but he didn't dare to argue for fear of being punished.

After dinner, Lu Yuanshan pulled him to go to the fields again.

Just half a month passed, and Zhou Chen became tanned, but his overall temperament seemed to be more mature.

Lu Yuanshan finally took him away from Xiangliu Village.

Before Zhou Chen could breathe a sigh of relief, he was stuffed onto a horse and jolted all the way.

They didn't take the main road.

Lu Yuanshan always managed to accurately lead him through sparsely populated paths.

It also always allows him to see the various sufferings his people are experiencing.

Some families starved to death, leaving only an old man and a young child. Their houses were taken away by their clansmen, and they could only dig wild vegetables and peel tree bark to fill their stomachs.

A disaster happened in someone's hometown, and his entire family was wiped out, leaving him alone.

Some people were sitting on the roadside crying, sticking grass branches on their necks to sell their children.

The sufferings in this world are not all the same.

But at the same time, he also saw the wind and laughter that never went out in the brothels all night long.

I saw that the rich would rather throw away the uneaten food and let it rot than allow the poor to get close.

If you see someone powerful, they can take someone's life with just a flick of their finger.

I saw the hardships that children from farming families face in their studies, and how those without connections were bullied and had nowhere to turn for help.

Zhou Chen became more and more silent.

He remembered that when he was very young, his father held him on his knees, looked at him seriously, and said to him:

"Chen'er, father hopes that you can be a good emperor in the future, a good emperor who can make the people of the world live and work in peace and contentment."

He once asked his father curiously: "But, Father, how can Chen'er be a good emperor?"

The father said: "Chen'er, you must learn to listen, learn to understand, and learn to be tolerant."

He said, “You must listen to the voices of the people, understand their needs, and tolerate their mistakes.

"You must keep the people in your heart, the world in your eyes, and the responsibility on your shoulders. You must learn to be a good emperor who is responsible, caring, and wise."

Zhou Chen didn't understand these words at that time.

But now, he seemed to understand a little.

Just as Zhou Chen was transforming little by little...

Imperial Palace. Cining Palace.

Xin Guoguo threw a memorial aside in annoyance, then picked up another one and started reading:

"Wang Youxi, has your master sent back any news? When will they be back?"

Wang Youxi respectfully picked up the scattered memorials thrown away by the Empress Dowager, closed them and put them away.

He caught a glimpse of the last comment on the memorial, "I have read it. If you have nothing else to report, please copy a scroll of scriptures and present it to me next time," and the corners of his mouth could not help but twitch.

The Empress Dowager has been becoming more and more irritable these days.

Fortunately, the Empress never punished her servants at will, so the first to bear the Empress Dowager's wrath were the group of civil servants from the previous dynasty.

Wang Youxi couldn't help but gloat over the misfortune.

His face was still respectful: "In reply to the Queen Mother, the master didn't say anything. But General Lu sent a message saying that he should be back in half a month."

Xing Guoguo exclaimed: "What?!"

She decisively threw the letter in her hand aside and said, "I won't read it anymore. Move it back and wait for your master to come back and read it yourself."

It's not urgent anyway.

If there was an emergency, the people from the cabinet and the six ministries would rush to find her.

Wang Youxi: …

"Yes."

Move the piles of memorials out and have the young eunuchs take them back to the imperial study.

Wang Youxi walked in front, but he couldn't help but mourn for his master in his heart.

The master has been gone for half a year.

The Empress Dowager looked at the two memorials out of curiosity at first, but later she just picked and read them.

Many of these memorials have been piled up for several months.

Moreover, for important matters, the Cabinet had read the memorials and consulted the Empress Dowager, and then resolved them.

Most of the remaining ones are letters of greeting.

When Wang Youxi thought of the Empress Dowager's annoyed look when she read the memorials, he felt more and more sympathetic towards his master.

It has not been easy for the master these years!

Ever since I learned to read, I have been forced to read memorials for so many years!

ah~

Pitiful.

Fortunately, he is just a little eunuch.

(^~^)

As soon as Wang Youxi left, Xin Guoguo collapsed on the couch, feeling that all her energy had been sucked away by those memorials:

"Madame Deng, I'm tired. Come and bring me an ice bowl, and ask Xiao Taohong to come as well."

Long before her master ordered Wang Youxi to take away all the memorials, Nanny Deng had already asked people to prepare a row of snacks.

Hearing his master asking for an ice bowl, he immediately asked someone to bring it.

Xiao Taohong also came along.

After greeting, Xiao Taohong was allowed to sit on the embroidered stool next to Xin Guoguo.

Xiao Taohong has also become proficient in the business.

She was promoted because of her specialty, and she was envied by so many sisters at that time.

She sat down happily: "What would you like to hear today, Queen Mother?"

Xing Guoguo held the ice bowl, took a bite, and felt refreshed all over:

"Of course he is the most entertaining person in this palace!"

As for the title of "man of fun", in the eyes of everyone in the palace, it really seems to be tailor-made for Chu Xiuyuan.

No one knew whose girl she was, but she followed His Majesty back to the palace in such an unclear manner.

There is no status or anything.

Even though His Majesty has not been in the palace for the past six months, in the eyes of outsiders, this girl is still His Majesty's person.

His reputation is completely gone.

This doesn’t really have much of an impact, after all, Su Suwan has no plans to marry anyone else.

But ever since this person entered the palace and after His Majesty left, he has been acting like a troublemaker every day, and each time he does it is different!

Today he complained that the flowers in the palace were not fresh enough, tomorrow he complained that the food was not to his liking, and the day after tomorrow he said he did not like the pattern on the clothes...

It just so happens that this girl was brought back from outside the palace by His Majesty, which means she is the first and only girl in His Majesty's harem.

Although His Majesty has not yet conferred a title on her, people in the palace do not dare to disrespect her.

But this person was so good at causing trouble that everyone in the palace couldn't stand her anymore.

In short, the people in the palace were completely uninterested in receiving this person's help.

But this also caused a lot of jokes.

This made Xin Guoguo feel the correct purpose of this "chosen girl"!

"Speaking of our 'Le Zi Su', there is something really surprising today."

Xiao Taohong is well aware of her own strengths, and therefore works harder and harder to refine her language, making sure it is vivid and lifelike so that the Empress Dowager will want to listen again!
