They all say I'm a tyrant

It has been more than half an hour since You Yan left Changle Palace, and the servants of Changle Palace are still waiting outside the door anxiously.Previously, Gao Yong tried to go in to inquire about the situation, but was kicked out by the slapstick inside, and the others did not dare to touch the bad luck of the moody emperor again.

Gao Yong walked around outside the palace gate, looking up at the sky several times.It was getting closer and closer to noon, and it was time for lunch, but he really couldn't muster up the courage to go in again, but he couldn't really ignore the lunch of the person inside.

As time passed, Gao Yong really missed the old days, especially when the one inside had just ascended the throne. At that time, Emperor Longhe's temper was much better than now. , I don't know why he was furious today, but when the general left, it was still calm and calm.

Thinking back carefully, both Long and Emperor seem to have been worried recently.But Gao Yong, even though he was a celebrity around Emperor Longhe and his personal attendant, he didn't dare to speculate on what went wrong between the two of them.I can only secretly hope that no matter what happens, it will not affect them.

Gao Yong was dying at the gate of Changle Palace, when a servant suddenly ran over and said to Gao Yong, "Eunuch, the queen mother is late, she has already arrived outside the gate, send slaves to report."

Gao Yong frowned, took a long look outside the palace gate, and sighed: "Forget it, I'll touch this bad luck no matter what. I'll report it." After speaking, he walked quickly to the gate of the palace, gently Knocking lightly on the palace door, she raised her voice slightly, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is here, and she will be at the gate of the palace soon."

There was a silence in the hall, and Lin Ce's voice came after a while: "Someone come in to clean up, and then invite the queen mother to come in."

Gao Yong had been by Lin Ce's side for a long time, and he immediately realized that there was nothing wrong with his tone. What's more, Longhe Emperor has always been benevolent and filial, no matter what emotions he had, he would never break out in front of the Queen Mother, so he breathed a sigh of relief , reached out and nodded to the two people around him: "You two, go in and clean up."

When the Empress Dowager entered the hall, everything had been tidied up, and it was impossible to tell that the master of the sleeping hall had just lost his temper.Lin Ce was sitting in front of the imperial case looking down at the memorial, and raised his head when he heard footsteps, smiled at the queen mother, stood up and said, "I have seen the queen mother."

The Empress Dowager Wu nodded, and sat down with the help of her maid, her eyes swept over Lin Ce's face, and then she said meekly: "I know that the emperor is busy with state affairs, and he has worked hard, and the Ai family cooked some ginseng soup by himself. I'll drink some." As soon as she finished speaking, a servant came forward with a food box.

Lin Ce smiled, and slowed down his voice: "Although there are many national affairs, my minister is in his prime of life after all, so this matter is not a big deal. What's more, there are always people working in this palace. Let the queen mother do it herself. My son is really guilty." After speaking, he turned his head and took a look, Gao Yong immediately understood, stepped forward to take the food box from the waiter, opened the lid of the box, and held it in front of Lin Ce.

Lin Ce looked down at the food box, took a deep sniff, and then nodded: "But speaking of it, I haven't had the ginseng soup cooked by my mother for a long time." He raised his eyes and looked at Gao Yong, "Bring me a bowl, and it's almost the other time, bring the lunch, it happens that the queen is here, and I haven't had a meal with the queen for a long time."

Gao Yong raised his head and glanced at Empress Dowager Wu, seeing that she had no objection, he immediately responded, "Your maid obeys the order."

Seeing Lin Ce drinking ginseng soup, Empress Dowager Wu had a smile on her face, looked at Lin Ce and said softly, "The Ai family heard that you dealt with government affairs last night, and you didn't have a long rest, so you got up again to go to the morning court. If you continue like this, Ai The family is really worried about the emperor's health."

Lin Ce raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and his eyes slowly flicked across the faces of several servants in the palace, and finally glanced at Gao Yong, then smiled, and replied: "Is it my son's fault that the queen mother is worried?" "He drank the ginseng soup in his hand, and handed the empty bowl to Gao Yong, "There are some urgent matters in the court in recent days, so I went to bed late, and now I have finished processing, my son will pay attention to himself The imperial doctor will come every day to ask for the pulse of the son, the son is in good health, the queen mother does not need to worry."

Although Lin Ce wanted to comfort her, she still failed to reassure the Empress Dowager Wu. She lowered her eyes and said softly: "In the end, the Ai family is too useless to be a mother. I can't take care of the emperor myself, nor can I choose someone for the emperor. A few caring people stay by my side."

Lin Ce narrowed his eyes slightly. At this moment, if he still doesn't understand why the Empress Dowager came here today, he would be too slow. He turned his head with a chuckle, and glanced at Gao Yong calmly. Knowing this, she knelt down on the ground: "It's the servants who are incompetent and failed to take good care of His Majesty, which made the Queen Mother worry."

Lin Ce smoothed things over with a smile: "Gao Yong has been by my side since the time of the first emperor, and he is loyal to me, and it takes hard work to take care of me. Although there are occasional minor mistakes, they are nothing. What's more , he is a servant, even if he is the manager, he can't be my master, and I ask the queen mother to look at me and don't blame him."

Empress Dowager Wu was taken aback, she didn't mean that, and she also believed that Lin Ce understood what she just said, but now that Lin Ce changed the topic here, she could only force a smile and replied: "Gao Yong is following you." The emperor has been working hard for many years, the Ai family knows it, so how can they blame it at will." Speaking of this, she hesitated for a moment, and then said, "The Ai family just heard that Li Qing mentioned it again in the court today. Regarding the establishment of the empress, the Ai family also felt that the harem had been vacant for a long time. Even if you need to be cautious about choosing a queen, you can still add a few people to the harem. With a few caring people to take care of the emperor, the Ai family can feel at ease .”

The queen mother beat around the bush for a while, but finally she couldn't bear to speak.Lin Ce raised the corners of his mouth to hide the sarcasm in his eyes, then slowly restrained his smile, lowered his voice, and said slowly: "I don't know, my mother has recently begun to care about the affairs of the former court." , What happened in the early morning has reached the queen mother's ears so quickly."

Empress Dowager Wu knew too well what kind of character her son was, and also knew what his bottom line was. He would never tolerate the interference of the harem in government affairs, even if it was his own mother.She clenched her fingers, and after a while she forced herself to speak: "Aijia, Aijia naturally doesn't understand government affairs, but just thinks that the emperor really needs a caring person by his side, Gao Yong and the others will take good care of him, after all It’s not as caring as the person next to your pillow.”

"The person next to the pillow?" There was a slight smile on Lin Ce's lips. He turned his head and looked at the Empress Dowager Wu. People around, isn't the queen mother very clear?"

Empress Dowager Wu's complexion immediately changed. She was just a very insignificant concubine in the late emperor's harem, her status was low, and it was difficult to protect herself. She didn't do much to help the king of the country, so she didn't have the confidence to ask him about his affairs either before or now.However, just asking does not mean ignorance. Since Lin Ce succeeded to the throne, Lin Ce has no longer concealed his shady relationship with the general. It is impossible to hide the matter of staying in Changle Palace the next night.

It's just that it's not the same as not concealing it and presenting it openly now. Empress Dowager Wu frowned, stared at Lin Ce for a long time before opening her mouth to find a way for herself: "The emperor's words, the Ai family can't understand."

Lin Ce didn't seem to want to take this step, he raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly: "That's what I didn't understand clearly, I think that there is nothing in this harem that can be hidden from the queen mother, if this is the case, I will let you go today." Let me be more clear. There is someone next to me. When I was still the prince, this person was by my side. It has been six or seven years now. We have a deep relationship. With him by my side, I am not at all There is no need to find another person to sleep with."

If it were someone else, he would have already denounced Lin Ce for his nonsense and nonsense as a son, but the Empress Dowager Wu did not have the courage to do so in front of Lin Ce. It is."

"Children?" Lin Ce chuckled, "If I really found those few people, let them conceive dragon heirs, and then threw them in the harem without paying attention to them, the empress mother would not want to see such a scene, would she? Seeing that Empress Dowager Wu's face turned pale because of these words, he smiled again and slowed down his voice, "I am not yet in my thirties, as long as no one expects me to die tomorrow, there is no need to worry about my heirs." Hurry up, I have my own plans, the queen mother should manage the harem properly, so there is no need to worry about these things."

Empress Dowager Wu's complexion is already very ugly. Ever since Lin Ce ascended the throne, she has always been responsive to her mother's needs. Empress Dowager Wu was stunned for a long while, then pressed her chest, and waved her hand lightly: "Forget it, since the emperor has his own plans, Aijia, Aijia will not ask any more questions. Aijia didn't sleep well last night, and now he is in poor health. I feel unwell, so let’s go back and rest.”

Lin Ce bowed slightly: "The minister there will not keep the queen mother." After finishing speaking, he directed to Gao Yong and said, "Send an order to the Imperial Medical Office, ordering them to send someone to check the queen mother's pulse."

Gao Yong took the order, bowed and sent Empress Dowager Wu all the way out of the Changle Palace, and then returned to the palace, glanced at Lin Ce who was sitting in front of the imperial case with his eyes slightly closed, not knowing what he was thinking: "Your Majesty, lunch is ready. Okay, pass it in now?"

"Yeah." Lin Ce slowly opened his eyes, responded with a vague meaning, got up and let Gao Yong wait for him to wash his hands, and suddenly said lightly after a while, "Go and check for me, who told the Queen Mother about my schedule, How did the news of the court get to the harem?"

Gao Yong was startled, and hurriedly said: "Your maid obeys the order."

Lin Ce lowered his head and wiped his hands, and said casually: "It's probably been a long time since I asked about these things. Some people may have completely forgotten my taboos, so I just take advantage of this time to let them remember."
