Empress: The Old Emperor's Way to Pursue His Wife

Chapter 156 Dumbfounded (5)

Xiao Yi saluted politely, and Sanata followed suit.

Dressed in bright red, the broken hair at the temples was neatly combed to the back of the head, pulled up high with the long hair, and matched with the golden phoenix crown that symbolized the authority of the mother of the country.

Mei Qing was slightly stunned, staring blankly at the woman in front of her.

I still remember that on the wedding day of the emperor and empress in the past, she dressed as grandly as today, with such charming eyes and intoxicating heart.

It's a pity that on that day, she wrapped up her wedding dress and married another woman, and the groom was the emperor beside him.

Xiao Yi stared at the two people in front of him in surprise, especially Xiao Yi. In his impression, Xiao Yi would only dress solemnly on special days such as festivals or ceremonies, except for the solemn dress every morning. So grand.

Seeing that the emperor's servant was still in a daze, Xiao Yi called out again: "The concubine kowtowed to the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor."

Dead Xiao Yi, it's not too late to flatten my body, Ben Gong's legs are almost sore.

Looking at these two people, recalling what Xiao Yi said earlier, Xiao Yi understood. "Stay flat."

There is no longer the pampering of the past in the sensuality, let alone the usual easy-going, but it adds a solemnity.

Xiao Yi got up immediately, her phoenix eyes were full of praise.Seeing Mei Qing, Xiao Yi smiled and nodded.

Mei Qing smiled back, heartbroken.

Sure enough, now the two of them are husband and wife, the couple who have a good heart.

With just one look, the slightest difference in tone, and the slightest change in posture, two people can guess each other's mind.

Xiao Yi corrected his expression, and said coldly: "I don't know where the Empress and Princess Sanata are going? I..."

Xiao Yi originally wanted to say that it would be good to play together, but Xiao Yi's eyes turned cold, and he immediately changed his words: "Even if Mr. Mei and I have something to do, we can't swim with him. Princess Sanata still looks at Haihan."

"Your Majesty, you are very polite. It is my princess's blessing to have the Empress here." Sanata said awkwardly for a while, and then said this sentence in a calm tone.

Xiao Yi nodded, "In this way, there will be Empress Lao."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Yi led Mei Qing into the Huahaoyueyuan Building.

Just now he and Mei Qing had a verbal battle in the imperial study, Mei Qing suddenly felt that it was getting late, so she wanted to leave the palace and go back to the mansion, but he had to take Qiu Zhu back with her.

Last night Qiu Zhu trespassed in the palace, although it did not cause a storm, but the story she had to tell with Li Zhong had already been spread in the palace.

Xiao Yi, who is the mastermind of the palace, also learned about these romantic events from the mouth of the hidden guard.

Well, according to Li Zhong's status, it is more than enough to take Qiu Zhu, a little girl of unknown origin.

Thinking of Qiu Zhu's identity, Xiao Yi asked casually, "Mr. Mei, who is Miss Qiu? Do you have parents, brothers and sisters at home? Mr. Mei, why did you become her master and servant?"

Mei Qing listened to the words, smiled lightly, and answered the questions fluently.

"Xiaozhu is from Xishan Dalin, and there is only one elder brother in the family. As for me and her, I can't be regarded as master and servant. It's just that her elder brother saw that I was weak and sick, and there was no one to take care of me, so she asked her to take care of me."

"I see." Xiao Yi nodded, without stopping. "Then between Mr. and her?"

"Your majesty, you have met Miss Qiu."

Xiao Yi nodded, he was surprised when he saw Qiu Zhu for the first time.

"The reason why I agreed to let Xiaozhu stay by my side is also because of Ms. Qiu. As for Xiaozhu...if it wasn't because of my weak body, I'm afraid there would have been a child as old as Xiaozhu under my knees." .”

Mei Qing sighed with emotion, her tone full of helplessness.

If it wasn't for his body, if it wasn't for his special status, he thought, he would have whispered to that little girl in the past, "Little master, I like you, and you like me too, okay?" ? 'Time.

Reply 'OK'.

Walking to the eaves, Xiao Yi smiled and looked at the several figures in front of him. Xiao Xi'er and Wei Wei were climbing trees in the brand new orchard, while Qiu Zhu and Li Zhong were sitting on a branch.

Seeing Qiu Zhu who was entangled beside Li Zhong, Xiao Yi grinned.

The implication of Mei Qing's words is to treat Qiu Zhu as her own child, so Li Zhong and Qiu Zhu are having fun.

"Mr. Mei!" Qiu Zhu rushed to Mei Qing, ignoring the emperor in front of him. "Mr. Mei, why do you look so bad? Let's go, let's go back, and I'll make medicine for you."

Qiu Zhu picked up Mei Qing and was about to leave, Mei Qing couldn't help writhing and coughing continuously due to the chest tightness that had been suppressed for a long time.

"Cough...Xiaozhu...cough...don't be rude...cough..."

Mei Qing waved Qiu Zhu's hand away, and saluted Xiao Yi apologetically.

Xiao Yi had just asked her about it, and it seemed that Xiao Yi did not object to Xiao Zhu being with Li Zhong.So as long as he...

Qiu Zhu looked at Xiao Yi, and smiled, "That... that Li Zhong's emperor... ah, no, it's that emperor, alas..."

The more anxious Qiu Zhu became, the more confused he became, and the more he talked, the more irrelevant he was.

Li Zhong stepped forward, clasped his fists and knelt on one knee: "Xiao Zhu is still young, so it's no wonder that he still looks to the emperor."

Qiu Zhu simply shut up, and looked at Li Zhong who was kneeling on the ground with an apologetic expression.

She didn't do it on purpose, she just saw that Mei Qing's expression was wrong, so she...

Xiao Yi smiled, and just about to speak, a pair of small hands hugged the dragon's legs, sobbing miserably.

Xiaoxier?Didn't she still have fun in that 'new orchard' just now? How did she die so soon?

"Father, the Empress just explained that she will let the nanny teach me to learn the rules in the next day. Father, the son doesn't want to learn the rules. Learning the rules is very hard, very hard. Father, please help..."

Xiao Xi'er's begging stopped abruptly when she met Xiao Yi's dragon eyes.

Seeing her father like this, she begged in vain, so she didn't waste tears.

Xiao Xi'er let go of her hands, and ran back to the place just now to continue playing as if nothing had happened.

"You, Xiao Xi'er?" Haven't you finished asking?Xiao Yi was unwilling to ask.

Xiao Xi'er disdained to look back: "It's nothing, even if something happens, you can't handle it, Father."

How dare Xiao Yi refuse to follow Xiao Yi's words.This rule has existed since childhood.

"Uh..." As the emperor of a country, Xiao Yi's self-esteem was severely hit, but what Xiao Xi'er said just now... Forget it, he should not have the dignity of the emperor for the time being.

Xiao Xi'er just turned her head, and suddenly woke up again.

Because remembering how the nanny would teach the rules from tomorrow, Xiao Xi'er ignored Mr. Mei's existence for the first time.

The small figure flashed, and rushed to Mei Qing again, "Mr. Mei, what's wrong with you? Why are you coughing so badly, father, why don't you send the imperial physician to Mr. Mei, if something happens to Mr. Mei, This hall is just..."

"That's it?" Xiao Yilong's face darkened.

Surprised that she said something wrong, Xiao Xi'er kept frowning and giggling. "Hahaha...this...that...Mr. Mei..."

Mei Qing suppressed the distress in her chest, and bowed slightly: "Xi'er, I'm fine, there's no need to tell the imperial physician."

"Is it really okay?"

"Really. Look, Xi'er, I'm not... ahem, a little bit, it's fine."

Xiao Xi'er seemed still not at ease, so she raised her head and approached Mei Qing again, carefully checking his expression.

Under the eaves, a few figures stood, and the warm wind blew a hint of summer, which seemed to have a different meaning, and it was lightly scattered in the air.

Sanata followed Xiao Yi to learn court etiquette all day long, and walked all over the important places in the palace where miscellaneous things are handled.

I have seen all kinds of people in the palace who are all the same, and listened to Xiao Yi's handling of the affairs of the harem.

This day's insight can be regarded as completely subverting Sanata's view of the Great Chu Palace.

Before, she thought that as long as the master gave orders, the slaves would obey.

Now, she knows that there are many slaves behind their masters' backs, and they are secretly doing some tricks to betray their masters.
