daily life

Chapter 649

When Empress Yuan was alive, the emperor was at least a living person, he would be impulsive, would compete with the queen mother, would be elated, and would be saddened.

After Empress Yuan died of dystocia, the emperor had been lonely for many years, and the group of women in the harem were just tools for him to extend his heirs.

The world said that he was nostalgic and a long-term lover.

Yes, he is nostalgic and long-lasting. Those are all for Queen Yuan, and no one else can share them.That is actually the coldest person, his affection is only for his original spouse, and he doesn't have much affection for the prince.At the beginning of those years, he was in a cowardly mood similar to being close to his hometown. He didn't dare to see or get close to the prince, so he ordered someone to take care of and teach the prince. Later, he was able to face each other calmly. juvenile.

He couldn't even think of Empress Yuan's affection and give the prince a little more favor.

It is rare in the world to be so cold.

These are unknown to others, only she, who is lucky and unfortunate to be the current empress, can see and ponder them thoroughly.

The so-called emperor dotes on her and Concubine Hui, what can he give?Fame, a little bit of power because of his son.She couldn't see his sincerity, and she could never feel it.

Concubine Hui has shallow eyelids and can't see these things, so she has been complacent for so many years.In her opinion, that was stupidity, but also a blessing.At least, when she was still happy, she didn't have a day when she smiled from the bottom of her heart.

She knew that whether she was good for herself or her children, if she didn't fight for it, she would always be trampled under the feet of Queen Yuan and her son.

She can't win affection, what else?You can't get any benefits, so why bother to be the queen of the so-called motherly world?
The quiet garden is full of green bamboos, and there is only a plum garden in the rear.The house is not like a palace building, but like an elegant small courtyard in an ordinary official's home.

Arriving at the gate of the Moon Cave in Jingyuan, the Queen ordered the palace attendants to stop, and walked in alone, without squinting, only looking at her feet.

Empress Yuan liked green bamboo, lotus and Linghan plum blossom.How many women don't like those?She alone is hypocritical, showing it everywhere, and it doesn't make people bored.

The queen has been here several times behind the emperor's back, so she is familiar with the way.

The emperor is very strange.The way others express their grief is to keep the original appearance of the deceased's residence, but he does not.Two years after the death of Empress Yuan, he ordered people to seal up all the objects here and store them in storage, and made a lot of changes to the living room, leaving nothing of the old appearance.

For two years, when he encountered troubles, he would come here to drink tea and read scriptures.

It was also because he was so different that the concubines in the harem thought that he had forgotten Empress Yuan.Actually, never.

He just didn't want to show the pain in front of others, to prevent someone from stabbing him in the heart at any time.

Think about it too, remember that a person never needs those unknown rituals.

Walking to the front of the main house, the two dumb slaves in the courtyard were performing their duties, and they didn't seem to see her.

She pushed the door in.

The room is filled with a faint smell of sandalwood and books, and the windows are bright and clean.

The three rooms in the middle are connected, and there are several huge bookshelves lining the walls, and there are desks, chairs, soft couches, and drunken chairs in the corners.The east and west rooms are the banquet room and tea room respectively.

She stopped and listened.

Someone walked slowly from the banquet room.

It was her familiar footsteps.

She smiled, and she didn't know whether the smile was joy or sorrow, joy or disappointment.

The emperor approached and passed her while reading a book, "Is the queen here?" His tone was casual, as if she was just here to see him.

"Yes." The queen saluted, "The concubine remembers the emperor."

The emperor stopped in front of the desk, picked up a bookmark, put it in the book, looked at her sideways, with a half smile, "The queen should remember me."

The Queen looked at him.
