Emperor's Lazy Queen

Chapter 15

"Your Majesty, you can't stay in Du's Mansion!" The female official knelt down on the ground and begged, "You can't violate the rules in the palace, please think again, Your Majesty!"

"Rules?" Du Xiaoyue thought that this morning, the Empress Dowager summoned someone to invite her to Taixuan Palace and asked the emperor if he had been to Zhaoyang Palace last night. In addition to the deliberate arrangements made by the Empress Dowager yesterday, it is not difficult to imagine that the Empress Dowager was planning to let the Emperor stay overnight Zhaoyang Palace.If it's just a normal stay, Du Xiaoyue doesn't mind that there is an extra man in the palace, but the Queen Mother's stay is very exciting!Therefore, Du Xiaoyue is now thinking in her heart whether she has to go to the Leng Palace to live a peaceful life - these days, those concubines have obviously begun to split up, and some are on Li Qianrou's side, Some are on Tong Ruyan's side, some are two-faced, and Zhang Xueman and Liu Mengnan are on their own side. If they have nothing to do, they will go to Zhaoyang Palace to find out which side Du Xiaoyue is on. You know, Du Xiaoyue is The only one who has been in the palace for half a month and is still a virgin!Coupled with the power of her family, if you win her over, you will have a great backer.Although Du Xiaoyue was ambiguous every day and didn't show his attitude, those concubines did not relax their actions, so the days of these few days were very unstable, and even a little irritable.

Thinking of this, Du Xiaoyue chuckled. She was thinking about what to do to get into the cold palace, but today's opportunity was presented just like that!Of course, this great opportunity cannot be let go!The red lips raised slightly: "I have already decided and naturally it will not change. However, please rest assured, my lord, if something happens to me, I will take care of it alone and will not affect others. Now, you step down!" Although Hongsi had mentioned the female officer's name, but after Du Xiaoyue fell asleep, she had already seen whether her surname was Zhang or Wang.

"But, empress..." The female officer knelt on the ground and refused to leave, she kept cursing in her heart, whoever said that the empress is easy to get along with and doesn't make trouble, now she knows she has to go against the palace rules!If you go back and blame the lord of internal affairs, it doesn't matter if the female officer is gone, I'm afraid my life will be gone too!

"Don't let me say the same thing twice!" Du Xiaoyue leaned her left hand on the armrest, supported her head, glanced at the other people in the room, stopped those who wanted to persuade them, and then half-closed her eyes, "I'm tired Alright, red silk and green bamboo, now go back to the former room of this palace!"

"Yes!" Red Silk and Green Bamboo's complexions have long been green. They thought that Du Xiaoyue had already been approved to stay for one night, but now the result is that she deliberately went against the palace rules. Didn't she know that she delayed the time to return to the palace? Is it to be punished?

Standing up, he walked slowly in front of Jiang Liangdi, took her hand, and said softly: "Mother, let's go and have a good talk!" Perhaps, there will be no chance in this lifetime.Du Xiaoyue said silently in her heart.Du Xiaoyue naturally knows what her actions mean in a palace with extremely strict rules, but in order not to let herself spend the rest of her life in palace battles, let's fight herself to the cold palace now!

"Yue'er... No, empress!" Jiang Liangdi suddenly knelt down, tears streaming down her face, "Mother, please, go back to the palace! Don't be self-willed, there will be a chance to come home in the future, mother can also enter the palace Look at you!"

"Mother...you are!" Du Xiaoyue wanted to help Jiang Liangdi up, but Jiang Liangdi just knelt like that, and even wanted to kowtow. Feeling deeply guilty, she also knelt down, but when Du Xiaoyue knelt, other people in the room also knelt down.

"Oh!" Du Xiaoyue was not angry, she wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say. Finally, looking at the female officer and the group of court ladies and eunuchs, Du Xiaoyue gave an order, "Red silk, green bamboo, bring the female officer and Ladies and eunuchs go down first, close the door, you stay outside, no one is allowed to approach!"

The non-Du family members withdrew, Du Xiaoyue helped Jiang Liangdi up: "Everyone get up, family, why bother to be so polite?"

"Your Majesty, the palace rules must not be violated. Your Majesty should return to the palace on time." Du Kangyong stood up, but bowed and said to Du Xiaoyue, "If your Majesty misses your family, I can visit you in the palace."

With a calm face, Du Xiaoyue helped Jiang Liangdi to sit on the chair, held her hand, patted it gently to soothe her heart, and looked at the people in the room indifferently.Du Kangyong had already raised the stage, looked directly at Du Xiaoyue, with irresistible majesty in his eyes, and seemed to be able to feel a trace of his anger; although Ding Yingwei tried hard to suppress the dissatisfaction on her face, her eyes were She told Du Xiaoyue directly and thoroughly that she is very upset with Du Xiaoyue now!

As for Du Yehan and Du Chuyang, after they became officials, they lived in their own mansion, so Du Xiaoyue only met once in the Golden Luan Hall that day, but she didn't know who was who between them. Qingzhu mentioned that Du Yehan looks a bit heroic, he seems to be a general, but he doesn't know martial arts, so, with this feature, Du Xiaoyue can easily guess that the rough-faced officer with Ding Yingwei's three-pointed heroism is wearing blue The man in uniform is Du Yehan; the elegant-looking man in blue official uniform with Du Kangyong's seven-point face is Du Chuyang; the other man in light blue satin clothes is Du Xiaoyue's third brother Du Zhengxuan!

Although Du Zhengxuan was born very handsome, his appearance was not inherited from Du Kangyong, only his eyebrows and eyes were three points similar to Ding Yingwei, and his whole body had a sense of free and easy.At the same time, Du Xiaoyue saw a playful look in his eyes, and Du Xiaoyue smiled inwardly. Who is the elder sister-in-law and who is the second sister-in-law can see some fear and worry in their eyes, but looking at him, it seems that he only thinks that he is a theatergoer!
interesting!Du Xiaoyue suppressed the smile, it turns out that there is another person in the Du family who is no match for the Du family!
"Yue'er! Yue'er!" Jiang Tangdi gently called Du Xiaoyue who had been silent all this time, but after being glared at by Ding Yingwei, she lowered her head again and lowered her eyes.

Du Xiaoyue naturally saw Ding Yingwei's eyes, glanced at Ding Yingwei lightly, and then looked at Du Kangyong, looking at those serious and calm eyes, Du Xiaoyue didn't see a trace of worry in him, worried about his daughter Will she be left out for breaking palace rules? "Father!" Du Xiaoyue spoke slowly, with a touch of sadness in her tone, "You know that I didn't want to enter the palace, but my father gave birth to me and raised me for more than ten years, so I obeyed my father's orders and Repay the grace of father's birth.

However, the daughter is incompetent and won't be favored by the emperor after entering the palace. Even if she wants to go home to visit her parents, she is still behind the concubines.Other concubines can rest for one night before returning to the palace when they go home to visit relatives, but the daughter only has one hour.

It's not that the daughter wants to violate the palace rules, it's just that the daughter is lonely in the palace, and after finally returning home, she hopes to have more conversations with her family.

My daughter didn't know why she wasn't loved by the emperor, although she also tried her best to think about it, and wanted to change this situation, but it's a pity... So, my daughter was worried, worried that one day her daughter would be squeezed out by other people, and she would be beaten into the I'm in limbo, and I'll never see my parents again..."

A trace of sadness flashed in Du Kangyong's eyes as he spoke, and Du Xiaoyue continued to encourage him: "Actually, it's nothing to be in the cold palace. Anyway, it will be sooner or later... Xiaoyue is just worried about her parents." Du Xiaoyue didn't know that the power of the Du family had reached To what extent, I just sometimes listened to the whispers of the maids in Zhaoyang Palace: saying that Prime Minister Du wrote a letter to impeach a certain local official; or that Prime Minister Du proposed to implement some policies, and the emperor agreed; The little eunuch in the Qing palace said that the emperor and Prime Minister Du had different opinions, and how did they compromise in the end...

These are not what Du Xiaoyue cares about, but when Du Xiaoyue is bored, she can't help but think: Since ancient times, there will always be power disputes between emperors and emperors. When the conflicts intensify, either the prime minister kicks the emperor out of power and becomes the emperor himself; Either the emperor took care of the prime minister, and then implicated the nine clans or exiled to the frontier.You know, these are very common in ancient Chinese history.

In the court situation of Fei Ya Kingdom, although Du Xiaoyue didn't know the specific situation, but judging from the emperor's election and the rumors of the palace people, Prime Minister Du's power had seriously threatened the imperial power. Therefore, the relationship between the emperor and Prime Minister Du It won't be this calm all the time.Even if Du Xiaoyue didn't know the emperor well enough, she could feel that the emperor was not a person who was willing to be threatened. The duel with Prime Minister Du would come to the surface one day, but she didn't know who would win!

"Yue'er, you are in the palace for the time being, maybe..." Du Kangyong said a few words emotionally, and there was a trace of reluctance in his eyes, but right here, Ding Yingwei coughed lightly , Du Kangyong paused slightly, his eyes regained his coldness, "No matter what you think, you can't stay in Du's house tonight—unless you want Du's family to get into trouble!"

"Oh! Cause trouble?!" Du Xiaoyue smiled slightly, with a bit of disdain in her voice, "Of course Xiaoyue dare not cause trouble for the Du family, otherwise it's uncertain how she died!" Du Kangyong seemed a little afraid of Ding Yingwei In other words, Ding Yingwei has her own group of people, and a large part of Du Kangyong's power now depends on Ding Yingwei; judging from Ding Yingwei's slightly strong footsteps when walking, she should be According to legend, someone who has practiced martial arts since childhood, so Jiang Liangdi and Du Xiaoyue had reason to be afraid of her!Even if Du Xiaoyue is in the palace now, she doesn't have to worry about her making trouble for herself when she is unhappy, but she can make trouble for Jiang Liangdi - this is what Du Xiaoyue is most worried about now.
