In Yonghe Palace, Queen Xu Miaoyin stood in front of the bronze mirror and allowed the little palace maid Chun'er to dress her up carefully.

On weekdays, her clothes are simple and simple, because the emperor doesn't like luxury, but today, her clothes are more refined than before.

Because today is the day when she goes home to visit her relatives.

While tidying up her clothes, Chun'er smiled and said, "The Empress is a little dressed up like this, and she will become a teenager younger, just like when she first entered the Yan Prince's Mansion."

Xu Miaoyin glanced at her and said with a smile: "You mean, I am old?"

"ah?"

Unexpectedly, when she said this, Chun'er was so scared that she knelt on the ground.

"I'm sorry for my sins, I have no intention of this."

“…”

Xu Miaoyin looked at her for a while, then looked at herself in the mirror.

Then he smiled faintly and said, "Get up, look at you being so scared."

“…”

"How old was the palace when I first entered the Yan Prince's Mansion? How old is it now? More than ten years have passed, so how could it not be old at all?"

“…”

"You, don't learn from them, you're so slick."

After all, Chun'er has been with her for more than ten years and is somewhat in love. When she heard this, she knew that the queen was not serious and wanted to annoy her. She could only nod her head carefully: "I understand."

Xu Miaoyin leaned closer to the mirror again and looked at herself.

In fact, she does not look very old and she is well maintained. However, there are so many little girls like flowers in the palace, but compared with so many young girls, they can't be called young.

Time is always ruthless.

While she used her fingers to pluck the thin lines at the corner of her eyes, she said, "Ask outside, are you ready?"

Chun'er said: "Empress, the carriage is ready long ago."

"Where is the home?"

"There has been someone at my uncle's house who has already been there to make arrangements and is ready to pick him up."

"Um."

Xu Miaoyin nodded and said, "Send someone to call King Wei."

As soon as he finished speaking, the voice of the King of Wei came from the door: "Mother Queen."

Xu Miaoyin hurriedly turned around and saw King Zhu Chengxuan of Wei walking in from outside. Because he had to pay homage to his uncle for the first time today, he also paid special attention to his clothes today. He wore a bright long dress, with fluffy fur on the collar and cuffs, which made him look like a jade-like face and graceful.

As soon as he saw him, a smile appeared on Xu Miaoyin's face.

He said: "My Xuan'er is so straight that Zhou Zheng is a bit like your father when he was a child."

When Zhu Chengxuan heard this, his ears turned red.

He lowered his head and said, "My mother is so serious, how can my son be more virtuous? How can he be better than his father?"

Xu Miaoyin smiled and said, "It's good that you know the gap between you and your father. If your father is not around these days, you must be more diligent and cautious, and learn more from several ministers."

Zhu Chengxuan said: "My son knows."

"And said you know,"

Xu Miaoyin said angrily: "The previous two times I went to your place, and I saw you in a daze. I didn't know what I was thinking when I walked up to you?"

When he mentioned this, Zhu Chengxuan's face turned red again.

He lowered his head and said, "My mother..."

Xu Miaoyin looked at him again, her expression became a little heavier, and she said, "Xuan'er, you are the hope of the mother."

“…”

"The mother has arranged many things for you, so don't let the mother be disappointed in you anymore."

Her words seemed a little serious.

Zhu Chengxuan was originally a little red, and his heart was swaying. When he suddenly heard this sentence, he was in a state of turmoil and hurriedly said, "My son understand."

Xu Miaoyin nodded.

At this time, Bihe walked in from outside: "Empress, it's ready outside."

Xu Miaoyin nodded and said, "Let's go."

After saying that, he turned around and walked out. Zhu Chengxuan hurriedly followed her and walked out together.

After the imperial concubine left, Li Lai stayed in the room and did not go out again.

He held the edge of the table and sat down slowly.

Time passed by little by little, but he didn't move. He just sat quietly. After a while, there was a sound of footsteps outside the window.

When I looked up, I saw a little eunuch pushing the door and walking in.

"Li Lai."

Li Lai hurriedly stood up on the edge of the table: "The grass is here."

The little eunuch held a whisk in both hands, looked at him with a somewhat arrogant expression, and then said, "Hurry up and clean up and go with our house."

Li Lai looked at him cautiously: "I don't know what my father-in-law has to tell me where to go?"

The little eunuch said, "It's the emperor who wants to find you."

"Ah? Emperor?"

When Li Lai heard that it was the emperor who wanted to see him, he immediately looked panic on his face.

"The emperor wants to see the people?"

"Yes, you're lucky."

The little eunuch looked at him again and said, "Clean up quickly and clean up, don't lose your manners in front of you, which will cause our family to be implicated and let the imperial concubine down."

“…”

Hearing this, Li Lai seemed to understand something.

He hurriedly changed into a pretty new dress, combed his hair again, and repeatedly confirmed that there was nothing wrong with him, before following the little eunuch.

There was an old wound on his feet. As the saying goes, the wound was damaged for 100 days. After raising it for a period of time, he still had not healed. He could only follow the little eunuch with a crutch in a hurry. However, as soon as he walked out of the gate of the west wing, he heard a very thin "snatching" sound coming from the front.

It seems like there are bamboo sticks on the ground.

Li Lai was leaning on a crutch and placing a sound on the ground was heavier than this sound.

When I looked up, I saw Chu Xin lit the ground with a bamboo stick and walked slowly in the courtyard here.

She had been blind for more than ten years and had a very sharp ear. She could hear the sound of crutches slashing the ground.

It was a bit strange. She had been living in the wing room here for several days. Although she could not see anything, most of the people coming and going could hear the footsteps of each person, and she could tell who they were.

But I never knew that there was a man with a crutch here.

So he frowned and asked, "Who is it?"

The little eunuch said impatiently: "What are you talking about? Who is your turn to ask?"

He was in front of the emperor, so he naturally could not stand a commoner saying this. He had to say a few more words, and suddenly remembered what the imperial concubine said when she came.

He snorted coldly.

He turned around and urged Li Lai: "Hurry up, I'm still waiting for you there."

Li Lai said in a hoarse voice: "Yes."

After saying that, he hurriedly followed the little eunuch out with a cane.

Chuxin was snatched by the little eunuch and his brows were frowning. But the person had already left, and she couldn't even lose her temper. Besides, she could only stomp the ground with the bamboo pole in her hand, and then turned around and walked back to her room.

However, after just two steps, she stopped again.
