Long live Emperor Wu!

"It's not like my father doesn't know what's good and what's good. Your Majesty is good to him. How can he not know?"

Li Xiangyun looked at Wu Rou, his eyes filled with eagerness:

"He just has a thin skin. Every time he goes to court, when he rides his horse and passes by others, he has to receive the attention of those old guys. After resisting for a while, he really can't stand it anymore."

Wu Rou held an exquisite ring bell in one hand, shook it gently to tease her son, looked at Li Xiangyun and smiled, and said:

"You see how anxious you are. His Majesty is not angry. If he is, can I not tell you?
  I understand what you said. Kuro himself is a thin-skinned person. If it were him, he wouldn't be able to handle it.

It's just that he didn't think clearly at the time. He only thought the British gentleman was nice and wanted to be nice to him, but he didn't expect it to be uncomfortable. "

Li Xiangyun was a little doubtful and asked again uneasily:
  "Your Majesty is really not angry?"

"I'm really not angry." Wu Rou said firmly.

As she spoke, she shook the ring bell in her hand twice more, raised her eyes and said:

"Hey, let me ask you, if His Majesty is really angry, what are you going to do? Your father even pushed him away."

When Li Xiangyun heard this, his eyes flashed for a moment, he turned his head and sat up straight, and said helplessly:

"Hey, yes, I have pushed back... I can only make up for it by working hard in the future and making contributions elsewhere."

Wu Rou patted her hand with the ring bell and said:
  "Just say this. I will speak for you in front of His Majesty later.

I just remember that if His Majesty encounters difficulties in the future and needs support, I will trouble the British public to support him.

Isn’t it true that loyalty depends on actions? No matter how sweet-talking you usually are, it can't compare to offering help in times of need. Your Majesty must understand this in his heart and will not hold a grudge. "

Li Xiangyun breathed a sigh of relief and finally felt relieved.

She lowered her head and looked at the little child holding out his hands, with a pair of dark eyes as bright as stars. She laughed and sighed:
  "Hey, this kid is really good-looking, just like you."

Wu Rou smiled sweetly and said:
  "Does he look like me? Why do I feel like he looks more like Kuro and it's not good to look like me?"

"Why is it bad? It's so beautiful." Li Xiangyun disagreed very much. She thought of something else and asked again:

"How is the child's health? Is it easy to take care of him?"

When Wu Rou heard this, she sighed, her expression became more gloomy, the whites of her eyes were raised slightly, and her single eyes in front and back were full of resentment, very sharp.

she says:

"How can a person who was born prematurely after a fall get better? Every day, the female officials of the Imperial Physician and the Pharmacy Office, the nanny, and the old priest, all gathered around him. He took supplements and medicines, which were very valuable.

This is also in the palace. If it is placed on ordinary people, where can it be well raised? I'm afraid even I would have died a long time ago. "

When Li Xiangyun heard this, he also became worried. After a while, he said:
  "Fortunately, there is no shortage of anything in the palace. If everyone works hard, it will definitely be fine when he is raised slowly. Don't worry."

She remembered something again and asked:
  "Then what happened to Concubine Xiao Shu? She didn't do anything else, right?"

Wu Rou thought for a while and said:
  "She? She probably got scared after seeing that His Majesty didn't even spare two children. It's been pretty quiet lately, not much movement."

As she spoke, she snorted coldly and said with great disdain:
  "This palace is so big, as long as you think about it, it is possible to never meet each other in your life. If she just doesn't jump in front of me, I won't find anything to do with her.

I'm afraid that she is not clear-headed and always thinks that if she hurts me, His Majesty will like her. Is that possible? ...If I like drinking, but the wine is gone, I can’t turn around and fall in love with drinking tea. "

Li Xiangyun heard this and said:
  "Didn't you use to go to the queen's house every day to pay her respects, but you don't go now?"

Wu Rou curled her lips and said with some displeasure:
  "I won't go. I'm just like a medicine pot. After my confinement, I haven't been going for the reason of recuperating... I don't want to see Concubine Xiao Shu. I'm afraid that I can't help but stab her to death, and Your Majesty won't let me."

When Li Xiangyun heard this, he quickly reached out his hand to persuade her and said:

"Don't be impulsive. His Majesty was right to stop you. Everyone in the world sympathizes with the weak. If you kill her, the world will pity her and feel that she has lost favor and was harmed by you.

You are the most favored now. You are already in the midst of controversies and are easily hated by others, so you must act cautiously. "

Wu Rou kept listening, and then her eyebrows relaxed and she said softly:
  "I know... I didn't do anything, I just endured it."

She thought in her heart: When one day, Li Shan really takes power in the previous dynasty, and she becomes the queen, it will not be too late to get her back.

Just as they were talking, Caiyi suddenly ran in and said:

"Mother, Princess Gaoyang is here."

"Princess Gaoyang? What is she doing here?" Wu Rou said in surprise.

As soon as she finished speaking, Princess Gao Yang burst in.

She has graceful hair, bright facial features, and her chin is always slightly raised. She looks very proud and has the airs of a princess.

Xiaoqu stood in front of her and followed her in. He couldn't stop her even if he wanted to. Like a Yaque being driven away, he retreated in panic.

Princess Gao Yang seemed a little surprised when she saw that only Wu Rou and another woman were there, and asked directly:
  "What about Your Majesty?"

Wu Rou and Li Xiangyun quickly stood up, and Li Xiangyun bowed to her in a polite manner.

Wu Rou took two steps forward and said warmly:
  "Today is New Year's Day, and Your Majesty is discussing Taoism with the great Confucians at the Hongwen Hall. The princess is so anxious. Did something happen?"

Princess Gao Yang heard this and picked up the gauze she was wearing. The fine fabric was shiny and slippery. As she moved, Wu Rou discovered that there was a big hole in the hem of her clothes.

Wu Rou's eyes flashed, and she suddenly felt something bad. She guessed that she might have had a fight with her beloved consort at home, and came to the palace to beg the emperor for justice.

Otherwise, how could a princess be allowed to walk around like this?

Sure enough, Princess Gaoyang looked at her with disdain and said:
  "I can't talk to you, I'm looking for my brother."

After saying that, the man turned around and went out like a gust of wind.

Xiaoqu stood there, turned around, bowed and saluted. Although his expression was indifferent, his tone showed a little guilt, and he said sternly:
  "This slave neglected his duty and failed to stop me. Please punish me."

Wu Rou said softly:
  "How can you stop her? She doesn't even take me seriously, and I don't blame you."

……

……

Princess Gaoyang heard that the emperor was at the Hongwen Pavilion, so she walked all the way through the gate of the backyard of Wude Hall to break in there.

But there is the connection between the former court and the harem, and ahead is the Hongwen Pavilion, as well as several offices of ministers, which are of course tightly guarded.

Princess Gaoyang was a woman who wanted to break out of the harem. Even though she was not His Majesty's concubine, the guards subconsciously stopped her and asked in surprise:
  "What are you doing, princess?"

Princess Gaoyang raised her chin, glanced at the guard displeased, and said:
  "Of course I'm here to see His Majesty, could it be that I'm here to see you?!" (End of Chapter)
