pet queen [rebirth]

Coming out of Mingxin Hall, Xiao Qian walked around on the road leading to the Hall of Supreme Harmony from Shouan Palace, and waited on the side of the road for a while.

After a while, Su Mingmo came from the other side of the path.

Jia Yi followed behind him.

Seeing Xiao Qian, Su Mingmo said in surprise, "My lord, why are you here?"

Xiao Qian smiled and said: "Forget that you will appear here at this moment, so come here."

Su Mingmo chuckled, thinking that the prince is really glib.

In fact, it was because Su Mingmo was not considered a female relative, but Xiao Qian was not there, so he couldn't go to the side hall of the Hall of Supreme Harmony to sit with the princes and ministers, so he had to go to the Queen Mother's palace alone, led by a court lady. Greet the Empress Dowager here, then avoid other female relatives, and come out of the Empress Dowager's palace as soon as possible.

He came out early, so Xiao Qian would naturally meet him.

The two went to the Hall of Supreme Harmony side by side.

Xiao Qian asked him: "What did the queen mother tell you, did you make things difficult for you?"

"The queen mother said that she wanted to find some rites and mothers to teach me some rules in the palace. After all, I was the first male princess in the Jin Dynasty. She was worried that I would lose my manners in the palace and lose...your lord. face."

Xiao Qian's expression changed: "She really said that?" He stopped walking while speaking.

"Well," Su Mingmo glanced at him, and said again, "I will reply to the queen mother, I have been taught by the sage Confucius since I was a child, know the courtesy and shame, know what should be done and what should not be done, and will not lose it." My lord, your face."

After Xiao Qian heard it, he almost wanted to applaud him: "And then, what does the Queen Mother say?"

"The Queen Mother didn't say anything, she kicked me out," Su Mingmo said with his almond eyes slightly bent, "Although Ming Mo's words and deeds have contradicted the Queen Mother, but after thinking about it, I still have to tell the prince, so that the prince will not be caught in the dark." In the dark, when the time comes, someone will make use of it. This matter is all done by me alone, and has nothing to do with the prince."

"Who dares to challenge me?" Xiao Qian snorted lightly.

Just now he was impulsively going to Shou'an Palace to talk to the Queen Mother.

But he didn't expect that Ziyu could perfectly resolve this matter by himself.

That's right, Xiao Qian almost forgot that Second Master Su's temperament is actually not as soft and bullying as it appears on the surface.He has his own principles and bottom line. If he is wronged in front of outsiders, he will not just endure and let others rub him, otherwise he would not have rushed to save Xiao Qian recklessly in his previous life.

This is Xiao Qian's unspeakable pain.

Fortunately, he didn't act impulsively, and went to Shou'an Palace without listening to Su Mingmo's words, otherwise, he would have delayed Su Mingmo's hind legs.

"You are right," Xiao Qian said lightly, "If there are people in the future who say they want to hire a nun to teach you, you can say that this king said it. This king likes you to carve and decorate naturally, pure and unaffected. If you dare to invite a nun of etiquette for you, you will destroy the harmony between husband and wife in our palace, and you should be struck by lightning."

Su Mingmo was tongue-tied, and after a while he blushed and said, "Your Highness is joking."

Seeing that Su Mingmo was really shy, Xiao Qian didn't dare to look at him, so he suppressed his smile and stopped teasing him, and the two went to the Hall of Supreme Harmony together.

When we arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, after a while, almost all the people had arrived. Accompanied by Emperor Xuan Cheng, the Empress Dowager showed her face, and after some formal remarks, everyone sat down.

Emperor Xuan Cheng's complexion was much better than when Xiao Qian saw him just now. In his previous life, he ordered all the officials to write poems to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday on the Queen Mother's birthday. Today he brought up this matter again.

It's just that in the last life, writing birthday poems was a matter of the Empress Dowager's [-]th birthday, but in this life it was earlier.

In the last life, Su Mingmo wrote a seven-character quatrain, which was very exciting in Xiao Qian's eyes, but because the prince asked someone to write it for him, Long Yan was offended, so no one paid attention to what Su Mingmo wrote.

This time Xiao Qian didn't move his pen, and sat on the sidelines to watch the palace man bring the pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Su Mingmo picked up the pen and dipped it in ink, and planned to start writing.

As soon as Su Mingmo picked up his pen and wrote a stroke, he felt a line of sight projecting towards him.

Su Mingmo turned his head and found that it was Xiao Qian who was looking at him eagerly. He stopped writing in embarrassment and said, "Why doesn't your lord write?"

Xiao Qian leaned on his chin with one hand, and his black eyes reflected his reflection. Seeing him questioning himself, he smiled lightly and said, "Zi Yu is so beautiful when she is shocked. This king wants to see what Zi Yu writes. Can you let me know?" This king refers to one or two."

Su Mingmo blushed and said, "It's just a birthday poem. It's nothing more than green hills and cypresses, cranes and flat peaches, health and longevity, and good luck in everything. Is there any good reference for this?"

"Who doesn't know that the birthday poem is a rehash of the same old tune. The predecessors have written what should be written, but Ziyu is different. Ziyu will definitely be able to innovate. This king wants to feast his eyes on it."

Su Mingmo smiled, knowing that he was joking, so he let him watch.

After a while, a catchy seven-character quatrain was written.

Although it is slightly different from the previous life, it still makes Xiao Qian feel wonderful.

After a while, the palace servants came to collect the poems. Xiao Qian and Su Mingmo each put the poems into red envelopes, and the palace servants collected them and presented them to Emperor Xuancheng.

Xiao Qian casually took a sip of wine, accidentally caught a glimpse of Duan Xizheng, the prince's attendant not far away, sneaking around, and said something to one of the palace servants who collected poems.

The poems of civil and military officials were directly submitted to the Queen Mother by the palace people, and the poems of the princes and officials' disciples had to be read by Emperor Xuancheng.

After all, the juniors were fledglings. Firstly, Emperor Xuancheng was worried that they would offend the Empress Dowager’s taboo by using improper words, and secondly, he wanted to test the prince’s knowledge to see how well he had recently studied with Tang Xiang in the Wenhua Palace.

Xiao Qian remembered what the previous prince had done, and whispered behind him: "Siqing."

As Xiao Qian's personal bodyguard, Si Qing has been following Xiao Qian in the dark all the time, when she heard Xiao Qian calling him, she appeared while no one was paying attention: "My lord."

Xiao Qian whispered: "Go and see what the prince's attendant Duan Xi wants to do."

"Yes."

"Wait." Xiao Qian said a few more words in Siqing's ear.

Siqing nodded and left.

He was wearing the clothes of a royal servant.

At the birthday banquet, each prince and minister can bring a personal attendant to serve him. Since entering the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Su Mingmo has not seen Xiao Qian's attendant Sixian. At first he didn't know where Sixian had gone, but now he saw Siqing, just realized.

"My lord, did you bring Siqing?" Su Mingmo asked him softly.

"Yes," Xiao Qian had nothing to hide from Su Mingmo, "He has practiced martial arts since childhood and is good at hiding his body. I thought he would be useful today, so I let him follow me into the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Sixian has already gone outside the palace. waiting."

Isn't that the legendary dark guard?

Su Mingmo had only read the word "dark guard" in the few script books he had read.

The storybook he was reading told the story of the former Chu emperor's efforts to rule the country before the Great Jin Dynasty unified the world.

The former Chu State is located on the west side of the Great Jin Dynasty, adjacent to the Western Regions.

The reason why the story book is a story book is bound to be mostly jokes, but hearing Xiao Qian say this today, Su Mingmo remembered this word.

The so-called "dark guards" are people who specialize in carrying out tasks such as secret assassinations for their masters.

is a powerful weapon.

King Ning actually raised a dark guard?

Su Mingmo knew that his current identity was Princess Ning, he should focus on Xiao Qian, and don't ask questions that shouldn't be asked, so he didn't speak.

But Xiao Qian saw his doubts, and told him seriously: "Siqing was brought back by my mother. He was only six years old at that time, about the same age as me."

"When my mother brought him back, she said that he was dying and was about to starve to death. The adult who brought him said that if my mother gave him a bite of food, he would be able to protect me. Since then, Siqing has followed me."

"I don't know who he studied under. The person who entrusted him to my mother has passed away. Siqing has been gifted since she was a child, and she is diligent in practicing martial arts every day. The way of martial arts is also different from others. Later, I entered the palace. So I asked my father to make him my bodyguard."

"I brought Sixian and Siqing from the Western Regions. They have been close to me since childhood. You can trust them."

These words are tantamount to saying to Su Mingmo: You can not only trust my people, but also use them as you like.

Su Mingmo was a little surprised.

He knew that the experience of Xiao Qian being brought back to the palace by Emperor Xuancheng was full of twists and turns, which is not for outsiders to understand.

Probably Emperor Xuancheng felt sorry for Xiao Qian's life and came to the capital alone. He had no relatives except Emperor Xuancheng who couldn't pay too much attention to Xiao Qian, so he agreed with Xiao Qian to bring his usual attendants to serve him. he.

But Su Mingmo heard what Xiao Qian meant, and Siqing was not strictly speaking his secret guard.

However, Su Mingmo wouldn't ask too much about Xiao Qian's affairs. He knew that he and Xiao Qian were both prosperous and harmed by each other.

Now that Xiao Qian confessed this to him, he was a little flattered.

Just as he was talking, Siqing came back quickly.

He leaned over and whispered something in Xiao Qian's ear.

"Really?" Xiao Qian asked in surprise.

"Yes," Siqing said, "I have replaced the original manuscript written by the prince as the prince said, and the prince can watch the show."

Xiao Qian smiled and clapped his hands: "Very good."

Seeing his expression, Su Mingmo couldn't help asking: "My lord, what's the matter?"

Xiao Qian was rarely in a good mood, and took another sip of wine: "You will know soon."

The palace people will present the collected birthday poems soon.

Because each birthday poem has everyone's signature in the corner, Emperor Xuancheng only opened a few, and Longyan was furious.

"Yuanhua!" Emperor Xuancheng was so angry that he called the prince's name directly, "What did you present!"

Just because he "wrote" a good poem tonight, the prince came out to chat and laugh with the officials and children next to him, when he heard Emperor Xuancheng calling him, he turned around in a daze: "Father, you called me?"

Emperor Xuan Cheng was so angry that he could not care about his face, he threw the paper in his hand on the ground: "Look at what you have done!"

In the center of the main hall, under the steps of Emperor Xuancheng's throne, a piece of paper with a drawing of a turtle fluttered to the ground.

"Pop—" Xiao Qian laughed lightly.

I expected the prince to be stupid, but I really didn't expect him to be so stupid.
