Chapter 358 Secret Contest
This winter is extremely cold.

The sky was a bit cloudy, the carriage of King Qi's Mansion drove all the way to the palace, the wheels were rumbling, Nangong Yun raised the curtain of the sedan chair, and looked at the gloomy and fortified barriers outside, the scenery looked very bleak, even the pines and cypresses seemed lifeless.

Compared with the gloomy sky, the palace with red walls and golden tiles looks more magnificent.

Nangong Yun sighed deeply in his heart, no matter how much the world changes and the scenery changes several times, the imperial palace can always maintain its calmness and coldness.It's as if the people inside have changed and changed, but it can always stand upright, standing here upright.

She has lived in the palace for quite a while, to be honest, she doesn't like the palace after all.

It is also the inner courtyard of the deep palace, how can the imperial palace be more happy and carefree than Shangqi Palace?
After the new emperor ascended the throne, the government gradually returned to the right track, and she, the "fake" minister of the country, also handed over the power in her hands without nostalgia, and became her princess again. The heroic performance of turning the tide and beheading the rebels, was canonized by the emperor as "the first lady who protects the country", and her status is equal to that of the empress dowager, enjoying all the honors.

She doesn't care about these things, now she can't wait to elope with the child in her stomach and drag Du Yunlie, wandering around the world.

But now the situation is still dangerous, Li country is in a precarious situation, the government is very unstable, it is too early for the world to be peaceful.

Speaking of which, during the period after pregnancy, Nangong Yun still lived in a very chic and comfortable way.

Nangong Yun, who thought she would no longer be able to enjoy the blessings of Qiren, is pregnant. It is conceivable that this is a great happy event for the royal family.

It's fine for the elders to be excited, as for the elderly, who doesn't look forward to a full house of children and grandchildren, and it's normal to make a lot of fuss.

But Du Yunlie's excitement far exceeded her expectation. When the happy pulse was first diagnosed, Du Yunlie cried happily, which really frightened Nangong Yun. We have been with Du Yunlie for so many years. How many tears have I ever seen him shed? , To be so excited for the child, at that moment, Nangong Yun looked at his man, and his whole heart became so soft all of a sudden.

In the days that followed, Du Yunlie jumped up and down like a monkey every day, busy, and kept following Qin Susu to ask if there was anything to pay attention to, and even forced Nangong Yun to stay at home, not allowing her to go out for a stroll , not to mention that she is not allowed to touch any official business again, the level of domineering is staggering.

How could Nangong Yun give in obediently, and yelled at him confidently that the affairs of the Huaibei region should not be left to others. Unexpectedly, Du Yunlie sent a letter directly to Fu's house without saying a word, and told Fu Qilin that Yun'er was pregnant. , and strongly demanded that he send someone else to sit in the Huaibei area so as not to tire her precious daughter-in-law.

Fu Qilin actually answered the word "agree" without saying a word, and Nangong Yun was so shocked that he didn't recover for several days.

Mo Ju's affairs were even easier to handle. Du Yunlie directly told Zhao Yi to take full responsibility, and Zhao Yi obediently agreed without saying a word.

Ever since, the power in Nangong Yun's hands was emptied by Du Yunlie, and he wanted to cry without tears...

However, Nangong Yun used to be as busy as a spinning top, and now he relaxes. Apart from being unaccustomed to it at the beginning, he is relaxed. The biggest pleasure every day is eating. The two mothers, the Empress Dowager and Qin Susu, have changed even more. They tried their best to collect good things and send them to Princess Qi, which was more favored than when Yun Xi was just pregnant, so that the two sisters-in-law started to pinch each other as soon as they met.

The imperial palace also hadn't come to the palace for quite some time, Du Yunlie asked the Empress Dowager to waive the courtesy of Nangong Yun to enter the palace.

The empress dowager was already nervous about her grandson, so she agreed without hesitation, but she wanted to see Nangong Yun again. After discussion, she decided to go to the palace to pay her respects after three months, when the fetus was completely stable. Because of this, Nangong Yunjin I just came here, first to say hello to the Empress Dowager, and second to meet her good sister—Nangong Die.

Coming out from the palace of the Empress Dowager, Nangong Yun walked to the cold palace under the leadership of the aunt in charge.

Before taking two steps, a voice came from behind: "Princess Wangfei, please stay."

Nangong Yun stopped in his tracks, turned his head to look, and saw that it was the female officer next to the Queen Mother. The female officer came forward respectfully, and gave a salute, "My servant pays homage to the princess."

"Exemption." Nangong Yun said flatly.

The female official got up, smiled and said: "The empress dowager invited the concubine to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and wanted to have a chat with the empress."

Nangong Yun frowned slightly, and glanced at the aunt in charge next to the empress dowager, and the aunt in charge said: "Since the queen mother invited me, the princess should go, it's not too late, the servant is waiting for you outside."

Seeing what she said, it made no sense for Nangong Yun to refuse. Even though she thought she had no friendship with the queen mother, the former concubine Shu, and really had nothing to talk about, but she was the queen mother after all, and she could still disobey her orders, so she He nodded to the female officer beside the Queen Mother and said, "Please trouble Auntie to lead the way."

After two steps, the Compassion Palace has arrived.

Nangong Yun raised his head and looked at the palace, feeling very emotional in his heart, everyone thought that after surviving the position of queen, he could be honored as queen mother.

However, from the empress dowager to the present empress dowager, neither of the two women had ever been a queen. Even during their reign, they were not the emperor's favorite concubine. Respect them as queen mothers.

It can be seen that there are some rules in the palace, which are really inexplicable and unclear.

It is not necessary to have the highest position to be able to maintain prosperity, and those who can win to the end must be able to endure loneliness.

It can be seen that this concubine Shu, who has always been quiet and indifferent, gentle and virtuous, is definitely not a thing in the pool.

The female officer led Nangong Yun into the palace, and from a distance, she saw the queen mother sitting on the soft bed concentrating on arranging flowers. When she heard the eunuch's voice, the queen mother turned her head and gave Nangong Yun a gentle smile, and walked down from the soft bed to meet her.

"The concubine pays homage to the empress dowager." Nangong Yun was about to bow his knees to salute, but the empress dowager hurriedly supported her.

"Princess, you don't need to be too courteous. You can't do it. You are now the 'first lady who protects the country', but you are on equal footing with me. If you do such a big gift, you will break me. Besides, you are a man with a body. Even the Empress Dowager is exempted from kneeling, if I kneel to me, I will not be able to stay in this palace..." The Empress Dowager deliberately joked, and she kept her words tight.

Nangong Yun was a little surprised at her enthusiasm. In his impression, Concubine Shu was always a taciturn master. What happened today.

Nangong Yun was cautious in his heart, and said lightly: "The queen mother is joking, even if you are on the same level, you are older than me, I should give you a salute, and thanks to the great love of the queen mother, I can avoid the etiquette, but Yun'er is not Those who dare to make mistakes, the etiquette of the line should not be less."

The Empress Dowager's heart shuddered, her beautiful face was a little shy, this Princess Qi is exquisite and translucent, she underestimated her.
