Work overtime

When the Queen Mother led a group of people to the edge of the pond, the scene was even more shocking than before.

Because at noon, the sunlight is more intense and the refraction is stronger.It can simply be described as a golden glow and a long red glow.

The blue glass used to build this pond looks like the blue sky when the sun shines on it, and the goldfish and red fish swimming in it look like the sunset.

The whole pond is like the reflection of the sky when the sky is full of colorful clouds. It seems that there is a cave under the water, hiding another mysterious world.

Even Master Yuan Tianshi couldn't help but knelt down facing the water and kowtowed. After standing up, he said: "The so-called natural treasures, one year after the new emperor ascends the throne, everything will be renewed, and the fish will come to bring good luck. Sure enough, God bless the Ming Dynasty!"

He turned around and bowed respectfully to the Queen Mother, "I bow to the Bodhisattva. Such scenes can only be seen in legends and scriptures. It must be that the Queen Mother has reached the realm of heaven and human beings, and she shows such an extraordinary appearance. And I just looked at the Queen Mother from a distance. , a golden halo that only a Bodhisattva can possess actually appeared behind him."

"Is this true?" the Queen Mother asked hurriedly.Even she herself couldn't believe that her own cultivation had reached such a state.

"Eunuch Liu, you just came back from outside. Did you see the golden halo that Tianshi Yuan mentioned?"

Eunuch Liu immediately said knowingly, "I did see it just now. It was right behind you."

The Queen Mother had an incredible expression on her face and continued to ask, "What about the rest of you? Have you seen it?"

In an instant, all the servants and maidservants around him knelt down and said, "Slaves, please bow to the Bodhisattva."

Jiang Yuebai looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but sigh that "The Emperor's New Clothes" was perfectly reproduced. Indeed, art comes from life and is higher than life.

She guessed that what Yuan Tianshi saw might be the Tyndall phenomenon.It is more likely that he deliberately made it up to please the Queen Mother.

Everyone likes auspiciousness and good omens, especially those in power.The underlying meaning is that you are "a blessing from heaven" and a "chosen person", which rationalizes your status and behavior and mystifies your image.

This Yuan Tianshi is just doing what he likes and doing his job well.

Others are just like the courtiers and common people in the emperor's new clothes. Even if they don't see the so-called golden halo at all, they will not expose this invisible "new clothes."

"Rui Bin? Can you see it?"

The Queen Mother felt that if it really meant halo, Jiang Yuebai in front of her eyes was so white that it shone brightly, and there seemed to be a thin layer of white halo around her face.

Jiang Yuebai took a few steps back, looked at the Queen Mother, nodded, and replied firmly, "Indeed, I can see it."

The Queen Mother's head is covered with gold hairpins, pearls, and diamonds.The clothes on her body are decorated with fine gold threads and luxurious pearls.

When the sun shines at noon, doesn't it sparkle with golden light and a halo?
This is the approaching science column.

The Queen Mother was very satisfied after hearing Jiang Yuebai's answer.

She couldn't explain why, but she just believed in Jiang Yuebai.

The emperor gave Jiang Yuebai the title "Rui", which was in line with the meaning of auspiciousness.Looking at Jiang Yuebai under this situation is much more pleasing to the eye.

"Master Yuan, how about the auspiciousness coming from heaven?"

"To report to the Queen Mother, firstly, we should inform the world to participate in the grand event; secondly, we should grant amnesty to the whole world and reduce taxes; thirdly, we should lead hundreds of officials to build an altar to pray for blessings."

The Queen Mother said "Yes" with satisfaction and looked at the Emperor, "This matter is of great importance. Let the Emperor decide."

Li Beichen smiled and nodded.

The Queen Mother asked Eunuch Liu how the goldfish at Xi Ronghua's side were doing. Eunuch Liu replied that they didn't see any movement.There were still five fish, and there was no glittering sight.

Upon hearing this, Tianshi Yuan immediately said, "This is destiny, it should be like this. The Queen Mother has attained the Bodhisattva way, has a loving mother and a filial son, and obeys the will of God. That's why Cining Palace has such a vision."

Jiang Yuebai guessed that the five fish either did not take the pill for multiple births that day, or the proportion of males and females in them was inappropriate, or the time was not right, so they did not reproduce in large numbers.

Li Beichen kept smiling but didn't say much.He is not superstitious about auspiciousness. For him, the real auspiciousness is when the people are happy and the border is stable.

When my father was still alive, he loved hearing about auspiciousness, so reports of auspiciousness frequently came from various places. In fact, there were all kinds of things in heaven and earth, and auspicious things naturally abounded.In order to show the appearance of the prosperous times, the submitters often exaggerated when praising the emperor's merits, and even made artificial lies in order to gain the favor of the late emperor.

The meaning of auspiciousness to him is to stabilize the overall situation and give confidence and hope to the court and the people.

Jiang Yuebai decided to give it another try when the leader was in a good mood, and sent an instruction to the Queen Mother: "Find a reasonable reason to make Jiang Yuebai your concubine."

At this moment, the eunuch came in to report that Eunuch Zhang, the old eunuch of Concubine Jing of Yongshou Palace, came to report something.

After Eunuch Zhang was brought up, he knelt on the ground and shouted loudly, "Congratulations to the Emperor, congratulations to the Queen Mother!"

The Queen Mother and the Emperor looked at each other, tacitly looking at Jiang Yuebai from the corner of their eyes.Jiang Yuebai's cheeks were red and swollen, but his expression was calm and collected.

How is this going.

"Raise your head and speak." The Queen Mother asked in a deep voice.

Eunuch Zhang raised his head and said, "Go back to the Queen Mother, the imperial doctor said that the Queen Mother Jing is pregnant!"

"Concubine Jing is happy?" The Queen Mother was shocked.

What a surprise.

Unexpectedly, among the three people in high positions, Concubine Jing was the first to become pregnant.

Li Beichen said unusually calmly: "I understand. You go back and serve your master first."

"The slave obeys the order."

After Eunuch Zhang retired, the Queen Mother looked at the pond full of goldfish and said to Li Beichen with a smile: "Sure enough, the auspicious arrival is good news. Go and see Concubine Jing. She has a strong temperament. No matter what, she is pregnant with They are all descendants of the dragon, please give me some advice."

"My son will obey his mother's teachings." Li Beichen replied.

The Queen Mother said with emotion, "Today is really a good day that is rare to see in a hundred years. I am so happy. I believe it will only get better and better in the future."

Li Beichen immediately echoed, "With the protection of the Queen Mother, the Ming Dynasty will surely prosper. The Queen Mother, my sons and concubines took their leave first."

The Queen Mother wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing. She waved her hand and let the two of them leave first.

Xu Fuhai thoughtfully arranged a sedan chair to pick him up.

In this way, Jiang Yuebai's red and swollen face would not become a topic of conversation in every corner of the palace from today on.

Li Beichen sat side by side with Jiang Yuebai holding hands in the dim car.

He took her hand, held it in his palm, and put it on his lap: "Are you angry with me?"

Jiang Yuebai had been thinking about the loyalty card. He came back to his senses when he heard Li Beichen's question and asked in confusion, "Why is my concubine angry?"

"If I don't win, the Queen Mother will help you advance to the throne."

Jiang Yuebai still felt a little uncomfortable at this moment, "I am the concubine who was too bad at it and her skills were not as good as others. It has nothing to do with the emperor."

Li Beichen felt a little uncomfortable when he heard "it has nothing to do with the emperor" and asked, "How come it has nothing to do with me."

He was not prepared to explain to Jiang Yuebai why he deliberately lost the game with the Queen Mother, as long as she was safe.

"I am not unhappy," Jiang Yuebai said insincerely.

Just not happy.

Li Beichen noticed Jiang Yuebai's mood and reminded her, "You can take advantage of today's opportunity to go to the Queen Mother often for advice on chess skills."

Jiang Yuebai suddenly realized that the emperor had found a Go master for her.

Brilliant move!

It perfectly circumvented the problem that although Han Ziqian was superb at chess, he was inconvenient to enter the palace as a courtier.You can also find opportunities to get close to the Queen Mother.It's so perfect!
But will the Queen Mother agree?

Jiang Yuebai asked tentatively, "I am so bad at chess. Will a master like the Queen Mother dislike me and be too lazy to pay attention to me?"

Li Beichen said with a smile, "The Queen Mother will dislike you while giving you guidance. When your level improves, the Queen Mother will naturally not dislike you. Just be thick-skinned and pester the Queen Mother."

"Why is the emperor so sure?" Jiang Yuebai always felt that today's luck was so good that it was unreal.

Speaking out scares people to death.

The emperor is her swordsmanship teacher, and the queen mother is her go teacher.

Li Beichen said in his heart, of course he observed it from Lao Liu.The mother-in-law is all about being coquettish and cute, flattering and stalking her.
