Time travel: Are you as professional as him in eating dog food?

The two walked in one after the other. Wen Baixu stepped into the hall under the slightly surprised gaze of the close guard. As soon as he entered the hall, he saw a large moon-like, glittering pearl hanging on the top of the treasure. The bricks and stones on the floor were inlaid with warm jade and inlaid with gold beads. The ground was carved into lotus, and each flower was in the shape of a five-stem white lotus. The petals looked like real ones. If you stepped on them barefoot, the warm jade would warm your heart and lungs.

Walking further ahead, I saw several large beams made of sandalwood standing in front of me, and curtains made of pearls and jade clearly divided the upper and lower steps.

Suddenly, a eunuch appeared, wearing a gorgeous long gown with fluttering sleeves. His demeanor was dignified, and his every move was full of elegance. He walked lightly, as if walking on clouds, and each step had a unique rhythm.

He stood upright beside the Queen Mother, like a pine or cypress, like a firm mountain. His eyes were focused and sharp, always paying attention to the Queen Mother's every move, as if he could see through her mind.

When the Queen Mother needed help, he extended his hands quickly and gracefully, with gentle and neat movements, and presented the items to the Queen Mother, then quietly stepped aside, like a gentle breeze, without disturbing her.

Seeing this, Wen Baixu stood still, bowed, took a step back with his left foot, knelt on the ground, put his hand in front of his forehead, and said: "Greetings to the Queen Mother, may the Queen Mother live a long and healthy life."

After finishing his words, he bowed with his hands on the ground.

After he had completed this series of operations, the hall was completely silent, without a single movement, not even on the jade steps.

Wen Baixu, kneeling on the ground, thought carefully about his every move after entering. It seemed that... there was nothing rude about it. He lowered his head and glanced at the man kneeling beside him.

After a long time, a cough was heard and a puff of smoke floated out. The eunuch standing behind the Queen Mother walked forward, slowly took the purple jade thing from the Queen Mother's hand, and slowly walked to the back with it.

After a slight sound of footsteps, the hall returned to silence.

"Commander Yu..."

A cold and stern shout, with a mighty and powerful voice, made people shudder. She leaned lazily on the couch, fanning herself carelessly in her hand, but her eyes were as sharp as a blade, penetrating through the pearl and jade curtain, as if they could penetrate one's soul. Every word she said exploded in the air like thunder, instructing her subordinates.

"I am here"

The man kneeling beside Wen Baixu answered calmly, but his eyes drooped slightly.

"Do you know your guilt..."

"I know, but I can't blame him completely"

The man bowed slightly and said calmly

"Why? Don't forget that you are the culprit who assisted Her Royal Highness to sneak out of the palace. You are also the culprit who caused Her Royal Highness to fall into the water. How can you deny it?"

"My lady, you have wronged me."

The voice on the jade steps fell silent in an instant after being interrupted, and the man next to him looked at the boy with worried eyes and shook his head, but the boy still lay on the ground and said

"Your Majesty, I know that I have offended you by interrupting your conversation, but I do not want you to be kept in the dark and deceived by me, so I interrupted you rudely. I beg you to forgive me and listen to my story."

After Wen Baixu finished speaking, his hands on the ground trembled slightly. In fact, he was not sure: these were all what he had seen in time-travel dramas before, but...they all had the aura of the protagonist. Although he himself was also a small protagonist, he could not resist the aura of the protagonist. Is it useful to people other than men?

The hall was silent for a moment. The woman on the jade steps fanned herself slightly. Through the curtain, she got off the jade couch and gently parted a strand of the curtain. She looked at the two people below with a sharp look.

"Commander Yu, you are a minister of great importance to our dynasty. Your contributions are no less than those of the generals and prime ministers. I will let you go this time. Go to His Majesty and ask for punishment. Go away."

As he was speaking, there was a sound of a pearl curtain falling, and the person who had just stood behind the curtain returned to the couch.

"Subordinate to the order"

The moment the sound was heard, the people on the ground showed no intention of leaving.

"Commander Yu, what do you mean? Are you going to..."

Seeing this, the man hurriedly explained, "I...I just brought..."

"You go down first. I haven't seen His Highness the Ninth Prince for a long time and I miss him very much. Could it be that the Commander won't allow me to do this?"

Although the woman's words were gentle, they did not contain much intimacy, at least not like the usual meeting between grandparents and grandchildren.

"I...obey the decree"

The man knelt helplessly, then slowly stood up. As he retreated, he glanced at the boy from the corner of his eye and walked towards the door.

With a muffled "click", the tiny ray of light that had originally shone in was now completely covered outside, and the hall fell into dead silence again.

Wen Baixu had been lying on the ground, his body remaining stiff. It was fine before, but now that he and that person were the only ones left in the hall, he felt a little nervous...

"From your tone, I thought you would try to get closer to me in a more intimate way, but I didn't expect you to use the word 'minister'..."

Wen Baixu's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. Although he knew all of this, he didn't expect it to happen so quickly and so directly.

"Your Majesty, all under heaven belongs to the king. All the people in the world are his subjects. This world belongs to your majesty, and I and the people of the world are your subjects. We are the king's subjects first, and the father and the son second."

There was complete silence in the hall. After a moment, a light laugh sounded in the hall.

"Raise your head, let me see your eloquent mouth."

Wen Baixu's heart, which had been a little disappointed when he heard this, instantly lifted up again. He did not dare to look up, but just lowered his head. He felt that if he really raised his head, he would really...

The boy was still thinking on the ground when he heard a crisp sound of pearls and jade colliding, followed by the sound of shoes hitting the ground.

Step by step, finally stopped in front of me

Wen Baixu lowered his head and seemed to be able to feel the sharp and inquiring eyes of the person in front of him looking at him. That gaze was like a sharp knife, constantly tormenting the young man.

"Since you dare not raise your head, how dare you defend Yu Qing? Do you know how you look in my eyes?"

Wen Baixu lowered his head in cold sweat. He felt a large area of ​​his back was wet, but he didn't dare to make a sound. He was ready to be disliked and then enter difficult mode, but...

"Look how scared you are. Am I that scary? Raise your head."

The voice stopped at this moment, and a fan was inserted straight into his chin and his head was slowly lifted up.

At this moment, Wen Baixu could only be forced to raise his head and look at the person in front of him.

But this look didn't matter, but it made him stare blankly.

He thought the queen mother was an old lady in her seventies or eighties, but who could have imagined that she was a well-maintained woman with a beautiful face.

To say that she still has charm is an understatement. Her eyebrows are upturned, her eyes are slightly raised, her nose is straight and her mouth is small. She is the best embodiment of the word "woman".

The young man couldn't help but be stunned, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva in his throat.

"Ok?"

Seeing this, the young man lowered his head and said repeatedly: "My grandson is guilty, please forgive me, my lady."

The person standing in front of the young man saw him lower his head, and the smile on his face disappeared. She no longer forced him, but just put away the fan, clasped it in front of her chest, turned around, walked a few steps with the sound of clacking footsteps, and said:

"I am a little curious about the things you said before, I wonder if you can tell me a little bit."

The voice disappeared, and then a side face turned to look at the boy, but there was an inexplicable gloom in the eyes.

"I dare not. It is my grandson's honor to be able to answer your questions." As the voice stopped, the hall returned to silence, as if waiting for him to explain.

Wen Baixu was not in a hurry. He paused for a moment and then started to tell the story of the young master of the Jia family and Lu Shiniang...

After a long while, just when Wen Baixu was talking until his mouth was dry, the woman's voice sounded again.

"So according to you, it was the Jia family who lied first, so how do you want to deal with this matter?"

Wen Baixu saw this and knew that this was a trap. He was just a prince who had just returned and had not yet been officially recognized. If what he said at this moment could touch the woman's heart, then it would be fine. If not, then he would have a hard time in the future. He thought for a moment and said,

"Your Majesty, you and His Majesty should have already made the decision on what is right and wrong and how to deal with it. How dare I speak nonsense? It's just that I really can't stand the Jia family relying on their status to bully men and women, deceive the royal family, and deceive the emperor. This time they dared to let the princess down, and also let down the expectations of Your Majesty and Your Majesty. It's really hateful and annoying."

"Identity? Then tell me what their identities are and whose power they rely on."

The woman's cold voice rang out on the jade steps, and that voice struck the boy's heart.

He calmed down and the words in his mind came out.

"My Lady, they naturally want to take advantage of their relationship with the Emperor and their power to bully others."

"I thought you would say that you were using Concubine Hua's influence..."

The woman said lightly, slowly opened the curtain and sat back on the couch.

The young man shook his head, paused and continued: "Your Majesty, you misunderstood. I just returned to the capital, so I don't know who the concubine Hua Guifei is. The only thing I know is that your majesty and your majesty..."

"Since you don't know, forget it. But why did you bow to... outside just now? Don't you know that I am waiting for you? Do you know your sin for neglecting me?"

After the words fell, only a small and crisp sound was heard in the hall...
