Half an hour ago.

When Lu Guanchu told Xuan Changle according to Shi Min's instructions, Xuan Changle was shocked, because yesterday Shi Min was as usual and had no symptoms such as coughing, so he was very worried, and anxiously wanted Lu Guanchu to report again, she wanted to see His Majesty.

If there is nothing important to do, Lu Guanchu is more than happy to inform her, even though he knows the result will not change.The problem was that she happened to have something important to do, guessing that Xuan Changle was worried about His Majesty, so she found an excuse to comfort her, and told her to go back and study hard before leaving.

Although Xuan Changle was a bit reluctant, Lu Guanchu said that His Majesty is fine and has already rested. His Majesty is suffering from a cold and needs to rest. How can she disturb His Majesty's rest?Then he saluted in the direction of Hongde Hall before reluctantly leaving.

Ministers of civil and military affairs, including Gu Yunchao in Chengtian Palace, have already stood in line step by step with their wat boards in their hands, and the guards on duty and the imperial guards have also taken up their duties, waiting for the sound of the drum at Chenshi to arrive.

"Dong dong..." Finally, the five long drums representing Chen Shi sounded, but His Majesty did not come out from the special passage as usual, and after waiting for a while, the purple figure was still not seen. Gu Yunchou and Qi Ming looked at each other suspiciously , They all thought to themselves: It shouldn't be, His Majesty has always been diligent in administration, and has never been late like this!

Not only did they have such thoughts, but generals such as Luo Buyun, Zuo Xuan, Mulan Yu, and civil servants such as Wen Yuan, Wu Lili, and Xing An were also full of doubts. His Majesty has never been so late in court, and he has never been dismissed without reason. What happened? event?Impossible, the foreign affairs of the Kang country have been settled, and the internal affairs are in order. Could it be that something happened to His Majesty?still......

If it weren't for the presence of the Procuratorate's spokesperson, and one of the responsibilities was to picket the words and deeds of these ministers, the ministers would have whispered and whispered in groups.

Just when the ministers were looking at each other, relying on eye contact and guessing wildly in their hearts, Lu Guanchu, who was dressed as an internal official, led two palace servants through the main entrance and walked all the way to the bottom of the Fengzuo steps. Just then he stopped and said loudly: "The emperor said, I felt cold yesterday and I am not in good health, so I will be exempted from court today."

Knowing that His Majesty only felt the cold occasionally, most of the ministers finally calmed down and took orders to leave the court. They went back to their respective government offices to start their daily business, but Gu Yunchou and Qi Ming were still a little worried because the incident happened suddenly and there was no As soon as there was any sign, he went directly to Qingxiaomen to ask for an interview.

Among the teachers of Shi Min, apart from those who returned home when they were old enough, those who kept their filial piety, and those who died in battle, only Gu Yunchou and Qi Ming were left serving in the imperial court. If it's not convenient to come forward, they have to.

So as soon as Bu Qianxue came back, the palace attendant came to report to Wenxi Hougu Yunju and Wufu Hou Qiming for an interview. Shi Min guessed that Teacher Yigu's ability and character would definitely have doubts in his heart, and then asked for an interview to prove the truth, but he didn't expect It will be so fast, and Teacher Qi is also here.

She knew that the teachers were only worried about herself. After all, everything was fine yesterday, so why did she suddenly get sick?It's normal to be suspicious, but her current situation is really inconvenient to meet them. It's not because she doesn't trust them, but because she doesn't want the teachers to worry about it. This is a big matter. Naturally, the fewer people who know about it, the better. She refused with an excuse, but Bu Qianxue suddenly suggested: "They are just worried about you and want to see if you are well. They will not let them see you. They will definitely come to see you again in the afternoon. Why don't you... ...".

Seeing Bu Qianxue approaching Shi Min and whispering close to her body, Lu Guanchu bowed his head slightly and backed out in a hurry.

In the end, Shi Min listened to Bu Qianxue's suggestion—pretend to be asleep, and Bu Qianxue would come forward to meet with him in person. He only listened to the outside saying, "Wanfu Jinan in Zhonggong", "Excuse me, two teachers. Your Majesty has just taken medicine and rested. The teacher has something important to report, so I will go and wake up His Majesty right away." Knowing that Shi Min privately called the two teachers, Bu Qianxue has always called the two of them respectfully.

Hearing that Bu Qianxue spoke elegantly and moderately, and called her teacher so respectfully, Shi Min's face was filled with uncontrollable joy.

"I have nothing important to report. Since your majesty has rested, I will not disturb your majesty's rest. I will leave." Gu Yunchou walked forward and saluted, and pulled Qi Ming who wanted to say something. Although Qi Ming Puzzled, but knowing that Gu Yunchou won't harm her, he didn't say anything in the end.

Once out of Qingxiaomen, Qi Ming couldn't help it anymore, and said in a low voice: "Didn't we agree before that even if we can't talk to His Majesty, we have to take a look from a distance to make sure His Majesty is well?", The results of it?I met Zhonggong.

Gu Yunchou glanced left and right, and said in a lower voice than Qi Ming: "Boss Lu and the others are all there, their eyes are firm, their expressions are as usual, and Zhonggong is speaking like this, who do you think is the meaning?" She has limited understanding of Zhonggong. , but I still have a little understanding of His Majesty, if it is not for a major event, I will never be expelled from the court suddenly, and I will not let the middle palace receive them!

But all of these happened, which means that His Majesty may not want to see anyone now, including them of course.

With Gu Yunchou's reminder, Qi Ming thought about it for a while, and then he suddenly understood it. The two looked at each other and smiled, and walked back to the government office to start their daily business. , but what should be done must be done well, in its position, and in its own right.

They asked to see His Majesty not out of thin air, worrying about nothing, but the fact that the monarch was held hostage by the internal officials in the previous dynasty, which led to the control of the power of the country by the internal officials, which laid the fuse for the collapse of the dynasty, and it happened as suddenly as today Of course, so they are not at ease.

Although I didn't see His Majesty with my own eyes, Lu Guanchu, Yichun and other internal officials were all there, and there was nothing wrong with their words, deeds and eyes as usual. Along the way, the palace servants and internal guards encountered on the road were also the same as usual The same is orderly, and more importantly, Zhong Gong's gestures and eyes that are going to go, can't deceive people, it's just for them to see, let them stop at the right time, how can she not follow the trend?

If she guessed correctly, His Majesty probably didn't rest, and was probably listening to their conversation not far away. As for why His Majesty didn't see them, she still couldn't figure it out for a while, but she should know, she One day she will know, she shouldn't know, and there is no need to know, this is the experience she has accumulated in the court for many years.

After all, the Sacred Heart is unpredictable, and being with you is like being with a tiger. Sometimes knowing too much is not necessarily a blessing, and knowing too little is not necessarily a disaster.

Gu Yunchou's guess was right, Shi Min knew that with her character, as long as she knew the answer she wanted, she would never rush in to see her, so she didn't even pretend to be asleep, and sat on the bed seriously listening to them. say.

Not a while after Gu Yunchou left, before she and Bu Qianxue had spoken a few words, another palace attendant came to report that the queen mother was coming.

"Did you meet the queen mother in Wenxuan Hall?" Shi Min asked quickly, although she was prepared that Wen Yu would know sooner or later, but at this moment, she was afraid of being read by Wen Yu.

Wen Yu is a typical virtuous wife and mother. She has no scheming and is relatively simple. She is a gentle and considerate mother, but she is a bit defensive and loves to read, especially after she has done something wrong, she can talk about it for a long time, and she is not good at it. To retort, you can only go in the left ear and out the right ear, but you will be irritable if you listen too much, especially if you can't show it.

Over time, she became a little afraid, but she tried her best to control everything that could make Wen Yu think about it so that it would not spread to Anren Palace. It's good to know early.

What she said in the morning was just because she didn't want to make things difficult for Bu Qianxue, just to make her feel at ease. Wen Yu probably won't meet Bu Qianxue in the near future, and the chances of asking questions are even slimmer, that's why she has such a ask.

Bu Qianxue replied without thinking: "No", it's strange to say that she hasn't met the Empress Dowager in the Wenxuan Hall for a while, but there is nothing wrong with the three of them occasionally having dinner together. So I didn't think too much about it.

Shi Min was overjoyed and said: "That's great, I'll continue to pretend to be asleep for a while, the queen mother will beg you, the previous words are invalid, don't tell the truth, just say what I said before."

Now there are very few people who know that she has eye problems, and they are all sealed by her, and they all say that they are occasionally feeling cold. If they can pretend to be asleep and hide it from the Queen Mother, why not be read a little bit less?

"Okay." Bu Qianxue thought she was afraid that the Queen Mother would be worried, so she agreed.

Wen Yu was going to the Wenxuan Palace to pay tribute to Zhao Huan, when a palace attendant came to report that His Majesty felt cold and unwell today, and had already avoided the morning court. At that time, he was startled and worried, so he temporarily changed direction and came to Fengde Palace.

Seeing the Empress Dowager arrived, Bu Qianxue hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said, "May the Empress Dowager be well."

"Qianxue, where's the emperor? Why did he catch a cold all of a sudden?" Wen Yu asked anxiously as he pulled Bu Qianxue's hand.

Bu Qianxue led Wen Yu in, "Your Majesty is in the bedroom. He has already taken the medicine and just rested. The weather has turned cold recently. It may have been accidentally. Don't worry, the empress. It's better than last night, just take a few more medicines and rest for two days." Wen Yu didn't miss her when the two walked in, and she also felt that Wen Yu was much more enthusiastic than before.

Bu Qianxue lied a bit. Before she came back, Lu Jianyi had indeed been here, got his pulse, and gave Shi Min the Chinese medicine Kongqing for external use, but he hadn't taken the internal medicine yet, because the medicine was not yet available. Not cooked well.

"It's such a grown-up person, it's still so worrying... I heard that you rushed back last night, and you have been here to take care of the emperor when you came back. This morning, you went to Wenxuan Hall to give the emperor It's really hard work for the queen mother to offer incense." Wen Yu patted Bu Qianxue's hand and said gratifiedly.

After the empress dowager passed away, whenever she saw Bu Qianxue, she couldn't help but think of Shi Min's choice and the empress dowager's goodness, and then she couldn't help thinking about it. She knew that Bu Qianxue was not to blame, but I just felt a little uncomfortable, so I deliberately staggered Bu Qianxue when I went to the Wenxuan Hall several times.

She didn't get along with Bu Qianxue very much, and it was normal that Bu Qianxue didn't find out, but Shi Min still found out. For this reason, Shi Min came here to greet her two days ago, chatted with her, and told her not to mind, He took all the responsibility on himself, and repeatedly emphasized that Bu Qianxue didn't know anything, so don't blame her.

Therefore, she thought a lot these two days. On the way here, she heard that Bu Qianxue took care of Shi Min all night, and went to Wenxuan Hall to offer incense early in the morning. Thinking that she was also very filial to herself and the Empress Dowager, There was nothing wrong with doing her best, and she suddenly figured out that Bu Qianxue was a good boy and someone Shi Min liked, so she shouldn't take her anger out on her.

To be honest, she herself is the one responsible, and she believes that if Bu Qianxue's filial piety to her elders is really given in to Bu Qianxue's own choice, there may be another answer, and she should blame herself if she wants to!

"Mother, when I came back last night, Your Majesty had already taken the medicine and rested. If you say it was hard work, the envoy Lu Yuan who was on duty last night was the hardest." The two of them had already arrived outside the bedroom door, "She is hard, but you It’s been hard work too, I’ve been tossing around for so long at night, I’ll go in and take a look and leave, so don’t follow, so as not to disturb the emperor’s rest.” Wen Yu said in a low voice, the front was talking to Bu Qianxue, and the back was talking to The code manager said what they said.

"Yes..." Chief Dian led the order to retreat outside the gate of Hongde Hall to stay with the other palace attendants accompanying him, while the guard of honor was waiting outside the gate of the palace.

After Wen Yu said that, Bu Qianxue also wisely applied to stay outside. In fact, she didn't want to go in with her, because she knew everything, and she was afraid that she would accidentally reveal her flaws.

After Wen Yu entered the dormitory lightly, he crossed the screen and saw Shi Min sleeping peacefully on the bed. Afraid of waking her up, she didn't go any further. quit.

Every time I see the decoration of the bedroom, Wen Yu feels a lot of emotion. When Wu Zong was in power, although his daughter occasionally had capricious fantasies, they were all within a moderate range, such as the first 1.8-meter topless bed and Underwear, not only underwear has been popularized to the common people in more than ten years, even the large flat bed has become one of the popular styles at present.

When the late Emperor Mu Zong was in power, although his daughter was the crown prince, she looked as usual on the surface, but in fact she was very cautious, and she behaved in a well-behaved way, so that neither Mu Zong nor the ministers could make mistakes. Never made unreasonable demands on her.

For this reason, she often chatted with her daughter, but her daughter insisted that there was no such thing, and said that the reason for this was because she grew up and realized the responsibility of being a prince. Although she and the empress dowager didn't believe it in their hearts, But the daughter refused to say, and they could only pay more attention to it.

It wasn't until Mu Zong passed away suddenly, and her daughter ended Yang Zhihong's rebellion with an iron fist, and quickly stabilized the imperial court to organize troops to march westward, that she realized that her daughter had really grown up, and she was no longer the child who loved her clinging to her when she was a child.

Although she never intervenes in political affairs, she is still very concerned about what happened in the court and what happened in the palace, and she also sees it in her eyes, especially after her daughter moved to Fengde Palace, she made all the decorations and furniture in the palace. It can be said that it is still fresh in my memory that I have made proper adjustments and updates.

Fengde Palace, as the palace of the emperors of all dynasties, is not luxurious or extravagant, especially the furniture, ornaments and rare copies inside, any one of them is priceless, but most of the daughters look down on them, especially the dazzling and extravagant ones. Those were all sent to the warehouse, and the style of the entire Fengde Palace suddenly changed drastically, becoming simple and introverted, low-key and unassuming.

So every time she came to see the Fengde Palace that was a little different from before, she would feel a little bit of emotion, but she was more happy, because her daughter did not indulge in comfort and pleasure and pursue luxury just because she became an emperor.

Because he had to go to the Wenxuan Palace to pay filial piety to the Empress Dowager, Wen Yu stayed for a while and then left. Before leaving, he did not forget to tell Bu Qianxue not to take care of Shi Min, but also to take care of himself, eat well and rest.

It was rare for the Empress Dowager to be so enthusiastic today, so Bu Qianxue was naturally happy to agree and sent them outside the palace gate in person.She knew a lot of empress dowagers in history, cruel ones, those who exercised power, and those who deliberately made things difficult for the empress.

There is also the Empress Dowager Zhao Huan, who is not only intelligent and wise, but also has an orchid temperament and versatility. When staying with her, I feel that there are endless things to say, and she can say everything, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.

She suddenly understood why Shi Min had a mother like the first emperor, but there was no reason why she didn't become disabled in the end. With such a grandma and mother, coupled with the wise Wu Zong, it is normal to be able to teach people like Shi Min.

"Qianxue..." Shi Min worked very hard pretending to be sleeping, repeatedly making sure that there were no footsteps outside, and after confirming that the queen mother had left, after a while, Ren didn't hear Bu Qianxue's footsteps coming in, so he tentatively called out.

"Here we come" Bu Qianxue, who was thinking about something while walking back, was called back to God by Shi Min.

When Bu Qianxue arrived at the dormitory, Shi Min had already sat up, was bending over and groping for shoes, hurriedly stopped him and said, "Sit well and don't move around, I'll do the rest", Shi Min immediately sat upright and stopped mess around.

In order not to leak any flaws, Shi Min took off his coat and waited to sleep, so he had to wear it again, and obediently let Bu Qianxue dictate the whole process, fortunately, he was only wearing ordinary clothes today, and it didn't take long to get it done.

The medicine was finally cooked, and it was Lu Jianyi who cooked it herself. Because the prescription and ingredients were not convenient for other imperial physicians to know, so she had to do it herself.

Shi Min was not as afraid of drinking medicine as Bu Qianxue, she lifted the bowl and drank it in one gulp, Bu Qianxue was taken aback for a while, drinking medicine was as bold as drinking, it was really the first time she saw it, it seems The candied fruit she had deliberately prepared was useless.

Unexpectedly, Shi Min, whose sense of smell is much more sensitive than usual, smelled it. Although she didn't have the habit of taking medicine and candied fruit, if Bu Qianxue specially prepared it, she wouldn't mind taking two.

Shi Min, who was already very hungry, was going to eat breakfast right away, but Lu Jianyi suggested that it would be best to have breakfast after two sticks of incense. Shi Min was worried that Bu Qianxue would be hungry, so he asked her to eat it first, but Bu Qianxue didn't promise.

The two of them read and listened to the ancestral teachings of the two sticks of incense one by one in the Hongde Hall. Although she has been busy with political affairs since she became the throne, she still took time to review the ancestral teachings, firstly to summarize and reflect, and secondly to encourage herself. ?
