It's hard to love a concubine

Chapter 100

"Your aunt was not happy at first, and she still wanted to complain to the old lady. Your brother was about to survive. She was naturally unwilling to have more sons who were Jinshi. I told her that I am old now. , I can’t hide things in my heart, and I like to find someone to tell them when I have something, and I also have a daughter in the palace, so naturally I talk to my daughter.” Tang said with a smile here, thinking of Li’s holding back His face was flushed, but he didn't dare to make a sound, so he was very relieved. "Your uncle has been an editor in the Hanlin Academy for more than ten years, and he has been doing nothing. He couldn't hold back for a long time. Now he is jumping up and down looking for connections, so he dare not offend us."

Qian Xiyao hugged Tang's arm and her stomach hurt from laughing, she gave her a thumbs up, "Mother, you did a good job."

Tang said again, "Now I look at your brother every day, and I don't know how happy I am. Your father is also, and he came back earlier than in the past."

Qian Xiyao was very happy, and said, "I also want to see my brother." After more than ten years, I don't know what it is like now, "My daughter will be fine, and I will definitely make my mother proud of me." Qian Xiyao Although she has no big plans, it is also her wish to have a son and a half daughter, live a stable life in the harem, and allow her parents and brothers to rely on outside.

But Tang turned around and stroked Qian Xiyao's hair, with distressed eyes, and said in a warm voice, "Mother would rather not have this support, if only you were at home."

Qian Xiyao's heart softened, she buried her head in Tang's arms, and said sullenly, "Mother, Your Majesty treats me very well." Regardless of the many women in the harem, at least she is cherished by her.

"Well, mother saw it, so Xiyao..." Tang shi was hesitant to speak, but finally decided that it would be better to say it. She didn't have a mandate, and it was not easy to meet her once, so she said, "You Don't say in front of His Majesty that you are a couple for life, now you are in the palace and at home are different."

"Mother, this is the old calendar from so many years ago." Qian Xiyao was stunned, how could she still remember what she said casually at that time.

Tang Shi shook Qian Xiyao's hand and said, "Mother knows your heart."

Looking at her mother's wise eyes, Qian Xiyao suddenly felt a little guilty, who would never want a single-minded love?But in this ancient times, it was really rare. A man like her father who only cared about his mother must be extinct, right?What's more, she is in the harem of three thousand beauties, how can she expect the emperor to have a couple forever?That was simply a joke, regardless of whether the emperor would promise or not, she was the first one who didn't believe it.

Qian Xiyao stabilized her mind and said, "Mother, that's all because I'm ignorant."

Tang said softly, "Xi Yao, your idea is correct, but the fault lies with you... His Majesty is too honorable, he is not only your husband but also the Ninth Five Lord, he has his own responsibilities, mother knows You are sad and not happy, but nine out of ten unsatisfactory things in life, it is impossible to be happy everywhere, look at the scenery in other places, don't stick to one place, there will always be happy things."

"Yeah." Tears filled Qian Xiyao's eyes, and she stretched out her arms to hug Tang's waist, cuddling up as she did when she was a child, secretly thinking in her heart that she must be good for her mother, her brother, and her father.

As for her love, it was but a dream.

Qian Xiyao sat absentmindedly for a while.

When the emperor came back in the evening, he saw that the dining table was full of food, and asked calmly, "I saw you eating candy ears when you came in?"

Qian Xiyao hurriedly said, "It was brought to me by my mother, it is food outside the palace."

But the emperor said, "When I was a child, I also grew up outside the palace, and my favorite food was tofu curd made by a master chef in the Yangjiao alley."

It was the first time Qian Xiyao heard the emperor talk about the past, she was very curious and asked, "Is it delicious?"
