Empress Dowager Guide

Chapter 59

"Why should I be like everyone else?"

"This problem has troubled me for a long time, even my mother said so," Cui Yun smiled and shook her head, "Obviously she has swallowed countless grievances, but she still firmly believes that the road she has walked That's right, but for the grievances she suffered, she blamed her own fate."

"But my minister, I don't believe in fate."

That's why she chose to enter the palace as a female official, because besides this path, she really had no other choice.

The idyllic self-satisfaction extolled by Lou Yujing's works is her only consolation in the lonely time, but it's a pity.
Cui Yun raised his head, met Sheng Shaoqing's surprised eyes, and then smiled self-deprecatingly, "What I said came from the bottom of my heart, but I also know that what I said is deviant. Have fun listening to it, relieve boredom."

Sheng Shaoqing was really surprised by Cui Yun's advanced vanguard consciousness, and asked the system in a trembling voice: Are you sure, am I the only one here who time-traveled?

system:.
[That's natural. 】

Did the host misunderstand something, did she think time travel was as simple as that?

"Ajun, have you ever thought about what you will be doing after a long time?"

"After a long time?" Cui Yun looked a little confused, she really hadn't thought about this question, and subconsciously shook her head.

Sheng Shaoqing changed the way of asking, "What about the ones that are near? According to the old rule, the female officials in the palace will have a chance to leave the palace once at the age of 25. Have you made up your mind?"

Cui Yun still shook his head, "I don't want to go back, as long as the queen mother doesn't dislike my clumsiness, I would like to stay with the queen forever."

"If you are stupid, there will be no clever people in the Palace of Eternal Light in the Ai Family."

"It's just that Aijia always feels that it's too inhuman to keep you by Aijia's side. Besides, didn't Aijia allow you to be free?"

Cui Yun was stunned for a moment and laughed at himself, "Even if you let me out of the palace, Queen Mother, I will not be free."

"Since Weichen has chosen this path, he will go to the dark one way. Moreover, the time when Weichen is with the Queen Mother is the most fulfilling time in Weichen's few years. The Queen Mother has worked hard for the country. For the sake of the people, I can't hold back the Empress Dowager, I would like to be a rock under the Empress Dowager's feet, just so that the Empress Dowager can step on high and look far."

As he was talking, Cui Yun's nose was sour, and tears were already streaming from his eyes. He didn't care to wipe it for a moment, but saw the queen mother leaned over and took out the handkerchief in her sleeve. Her movements were gentle, as if she was coaxing a child. She wiped away tears gently.

Sheng Shaoqing didn't know that in Cui Yun's eyes, he was actually such a righteous image who worked hard for the country and the people, and couldn't help being moved in his heart, calling softly, "Ajun...Ajun..."

"If you cry any more, your makeup will be messy and your eyes will be swollen!"

Cui Yun was about to press her eyes with her hand when she heard the words, Sheng Shaoqing grabbed her hand and shouted to the door, "Ah Ning, bring in a cup of ice!"

Turning around, he said to Cui Yun, "If you rub it with your hands again, your eyes will become more swollen."

Hearing the footsteps behind him gradually approaching, Cui Yun had no choice but to cover her face with her sleeves, and waited for Ah Ning to put down the ice and retreat, then put down her arms.

Sheng Shaoqing wrapped a piece of ice with a handkerchief, gently applied it to Cui Yun's eyes, and said slowly, "I understand what you mean by Aijia, since you are not going out of the palace, you want to accompany Aijia, Aijia is natural I won't treat you badly, only one thing, if one day you change your mind, you must tell Aijia, and Aijia will definitely make the decision for you."

Cui Yun bent down and bowed deeply, "Cui Yun only has three wishes now, one wish, that Her Majesty the Empress Dowager will be in good health and blessed forever."

"Second wish, I will have good weather and good weather, and Guo Zuo will pass on forever."

"Three wishes, the common people live and work in peace and contentment, six contracts spring."

Sheng Shaoqing's heart moved, and he said with emotion, "Aijia, it will be as you wish."

The two had another conversation, and Cui Yun took Sheng Shaoqing out with his own handwriting. Cui Yun was completely at ease with Sheng Shaoqing today.

Therefore, the ancients said that good luck depends on misfortune, and misfortune depends on good fortune. This is really true. The Queen Mother changed her personality from the inside out when she fainted. She prefers the empress dowager who has quite a personality now. Sometimes the queen dowager's seemingly strange actions can often have unexpected gains.

Back in her room, Cui Yun washed up and left in a hurry. It was inconvenient for the female officer, and if she wanted to send a message, she had to find Commander Habayashi Wei before the key was released at the palace gate.

In fact, Cui Yun didn't understand at first why the queen mother asked her to pass on the message. She thought that if the queen mother summoned her directly, it would be cheaper to act.

But the queen mother just smiled, and asked her back, "You are not free because of the surname Cui, let alone the people in the former court?"

Therefore, news can only be dissipated in private, and cannot be passed by the public.

When she finished delivering the message, it was already evening, the queen mother should have had her meal at this time, and with A'Ning and Forsythia serving by her side, she could relax a bit.

There is still quite a distance from Anyuanmen to Yongguang Palace, but Cui Yun, who just happened to be free, is now free and able to walk back to Yongguang Palace slowly.

Along the way, the palace officials and eunuchs who came and went saluted her respectfully. She knew that it was not her they were respecting, but the queen mother behind her.

Thinking of what the queen mother said to her in the afternoon, and the occasional pity in her eyes, she suddenly felt that the queen mother really understood her.

The sunshine in winter always makes people feel warm. As dusk approaches, the setting sun falls on the glazed roof of the palace in the distance, reflecting dazzling brilliance.

It is rare to have a confidant in life, the queen mother warms her like the warm sun, she absolutely does not allow anyone to plot against the queen mother.

As soon as she walked into the Hall of Eternal Light and walked around the corridor, she saw Zhang Qing poking around outside the hall, not knowing what she was spying on.

And after he saw Cui Yun, he immediately ran away like a mouse seeing a cat.

Something is wrong, when she tested Zhang Qing a few days ago, he still had fighting spirit, why did he run so fast when he met her today?
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Cui Yun walked into the hall to answer, but the Queen Mother was coaxing His Majesty, and she couldn't interrupt.

"Queen! Just take me there! I haven't played outside the palace yet!"

Sheng Shaoqing frowned, did she really indulge him too much? This little brat has become more daring recently, even daring to sing against her.

"The queen mother is not here to play! And what fun is there in the Buddhist temple?"

She doesn't understand, she doesn't understand, she went to enjoy incense and catch a turtle by the way, what's there to follow?

It's not a spring outing.

However, Sheng Shaoqing held back his temper and said softly, "It's spring, and the queen mother will take you to Chenliu to play. It's fun there, and at that time you can go to the field to cultivate it yourself."

Seeing that Yuan Che was still making trouble, Sheng Shaoqing darkened his face and threatened him, "If you make trouble again, the Queen Mother won't take you to Chenliu!"
