old queen

Chapter 142

"Yes." Xue Rutao nodded.

After the ceremony, he got up, stood up straight, lowered his head, and did not dare to look at her like every time in the past, and said in a deep voice: "The last general will go to the palace today to meet the emperor, and he will set off for the frontier tomorrow. .”

to the frontier?He is leaving?

No way!
Hearing this news, it is impossible not to feel shocked.Mu Mingchun's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but whisper: "Why so fast!"

In her memory, he seemed to have only returned to the capital for a few days!
"The last general has been back to Beijing for three months." Xue Rutao lowered his head and said softly.

Yeah?Mu Mingchun pursed his lips, still feeling a little unbelievable.

It's been three months?
She remembered that she seemed to have met him only the day before yesterday, and yesterday she went out to swim in the lake with him and the girls from the Wuxie Getai, and then sang and danced in the heavy rain...

Fresh memories are still bouncing in my mind, but now, has it all come to an end?
I suddenly felt a little lost in my heart.

"Yeah, it's been three months, how time flies. General Mo returned to Beijing to report on his work, and it's almost done. There have been frequent turmoil in the border area recently, and there are fears of unexpected changes. My father has already revised several books, and General Mo will go back quickly. Let's discuss the battle strategy together!" Xue Rutao said with a dry smile, with a serious look, which seemed a bit awkward.

Do you really want to go?

I was in a bad mood by Mrs. Taishi.Hearing what he said now, Mu Mingchun's mood became even worse.

With a slightly gloomy complexion, Mu Mingchun looked at the tall and rugged man in front of him, and said with some reluctance: "But, I still plan to find some time to have a drink with you!"

"Empress, what are you talking about, joking!"

Hearing this, Xue Rutao took two steps back, raised his head, and looked at her in disbelief.

"I'm not joking, I'm serious." Mu Mingchun looked at him and said seriously, "Didn't we agree at the beginning? We need to find a chance to have a drink. You still have a lot of questions about You didn't tell me about the border crossing!"

Yes, they said that, but...

The past is vivid in his memory, but at that time, he always thought she was just an ordinary woman.And once to her...

But now, with the difference in status between the two of them, she is already an unattainable object for him.Moreover, he will always remember that at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, after finding out that he had been staring at her, the emperor looked at him with such a chilling look, which was even more chilling than when the frontier was the coldest. Even he, who had licked blood from the knife edge, felt solidly shocked at that moment.

Your majesty is not a simple character either!
Moreover, he discovered that the emperor seemed to be very...

"Really, why don't you just leave? Leave tomorrow! Why are you in such a hurry?" Liu Mei frowned slightly, muttering unhappily, Mu Mingchun raised his eyes to look at him, and suddenly asked, "Hey, you have something else to do today ?"

"Ah? Wh, what else?" Xue Rutao asked stupidly, returning to his senses.

"That is to say, do you want to meet someone again, say goodbye to someone, and prepare something for the road or in the border?" Mu Mingchun asked, explaining to him patiently and in detail.

Xue Rutao immediately shook his head: "No. I have met all the people I will meet at the end, and my mother will prepare the things to be prepared."

It is enough for him to be in a daze.

"Okay, then let's go!"

Hearing this, most of the gloom on Mu Mingchun's face was swept away, he reached out and grabbed his sleeve and led him aside.

Unknown, he followed her for several steps, Xue Rutao asked in a daze, "Where are you going?"

"Let's talk about wine!"

Mu Mingchun said, the smile on his face suddenly brightened.

"Miss!"

Now, as soon as these words came out, before Xue Rutao had time to react, the girls who came out with Mu Mingchun were already blown away, their expressions changed, and they yelled in a low voice.

No way!

"What's your name?" Hearing their low calls, Mu Mingchun turned around and asked in confusion.

"Young lady, you can't... you can't..."

You can't be so intimate with other men!You are the queen, the honor of the queen, how can you flirt with other men like this?And it was still in the palace, under the gaze of so many people!Image!Identity!

Gritting her teeth, Jing'er hesitated to speak.

"Why not?" Looking over, Mu Mingchun dissatisfied, "I finally made a friend, and he's leaving soon, so I can't even have a last word with him, even having a glass of wine for him to practice. ?"

Besides, I don't know what to ask, but now she is inexplicably depressed, and she really wants to drink some wine to relieve her sorrow.

And drinking alone is a very boring thing, it's rare for her to catch a partner, so she won't let it go so easily!

"Of course not!" Several girls said in unison with straight faces.

"If you can't do it, you have to do it!" Mu Mingchun said in a deep voice with his face downcast.

The more they objected, the more she really got into a fight with them!

Why, that guy can go to the Imperial Garden with her little sister Dong'er, but she can't even have a drink with her friends?
Just for the so-called honor of a woman?

ridiculous.

Anyway, she has already lost her reputation!

With a cold smile, Mu Mingchun said coldly: "I don't care, anyway, I'm going to drink with him today!"

"My lady..."

Aren't you deliberately embarrassing us?
Seeing her like this, the girls looked embarrassed and couldn't help crying.

Just the fact that she was bumped into by the emperor after she said a few words to the second prince of Yinyu country, the emperor was already depressed to this day.If she were drinking and laughing with Xue Rutao in the palace or on the emperor's territory now, wouldn't that be a slap in the face of the emperor?

They all know that things are absolutely impossible, why does she insist on going her own way?
Even relying on the dragon species in his belly is not such an arrogant method!

"Hurry up and prepare some food and drinks for me. I'll have a drink with him in the imperial garden. I can't possibly do something embarrassing in public, right?" Mu Mingchun turned around, pulled Xue Rutao and walked towards the imperial garden.

It's embarrassing enough to drink with a man other than your husband.

Watching them leave helplessly, the girls cried in their hearts.

Niangniang, if you do this, it is obvious that you are pushing yourself into the fire pit!
And the slaves were also forcibly led into the fire pit by you!

"Empress, it's not good for us to be like this!"

Led by Mu Mingchun, he followed him all the way towards the imperial garden. Although he was only pulled by the sleeves, his bronzed cheeks were already blushing. decorated, stammering.

Looking back at him, Mu Mingchun said angrily, "What's wrong. We haven't seen each other for a long time, and you're leaving soon, so they don't allow me to talk to you anymore? Is there any reason? "

She is angry.

Even when he speaks, he feels a little angry.

Keenly aware of the hidden anger in her eyes, Xue Rutao obediently shut his mouth and stopped talking.

But, I was thinking in my heart: why is she angry?Just now, did someone offend her?
Her mind was moving rapidly, and her steps couldn't help but gradually slowed down, and she couldn't keep up with her rhythm.

Mu Mingchun pulled him forward severely, and said in a muffled voice: "Let's go, come with me! What's there to be afraid of? There are so many people around us watching, what can we do?" What happened? Those who can think about things are those who have ghosts in their hearts!"

"Yes."

Xue Rutao nodded, stopped talking, and obediently followed her.

Big deal, give up your life to accompany the gentleman.He secretly thought in his heart.

I am the dividing line where Long Che is about to go crazy
Looking in the mirror, he found that the swelling on his mouth had almost disappeared under the action of the medicine. Long Che heaved a sigh of relief, threw the mirror aside, picked up a brush, and pretended to paint a few strokes on the memorial, before lifting his eyes. At the beginning, he called softly: "Mingxi."

"Your Majesty, the servant is here!"

Hearing that the name was called, Mingxi, who was guarding outside, hurried in and bowed his head respectfully.

"Has the queen gotten up yet?" Taking a breath, Long Che asked.

These days, he has become immune to Long Che's performance like this.But for some reason, today, at this time, when he heard Long Che mention Mu Mingchun, Ming Xi's body trembled a little, and then he whispered: "Get up, get up."

Just get up.Long Che nodded.

"Then, have you eaten breakfast yet?" Then he asked again.

Ming Xi shook his head. "no no."

"Not yet?" Hearing this, the faint indifference in Long Che's eyes disappeared.

Eyes widened slightly, he looked at the subordinates below, and asked a little anxiously: "What's the matter? Is the cooking of the imperial chef not delicious? Or is she suddenly sensitive to some food again? Or..."

"This..." Ming Xi shook his head, "I don't know. The Queen just said that she has no appetite."

After going back and forth several times, Long Che finally realized that this subordinate of his is very abnormal today.Behaving abnormally and stuttering when speaking.

His heart sank immediately, and he put the brush in his hand aside, and asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"

Found out?

Mingxi's back stiffened, he quickly shook his head, and said weakly, "No, no."

It's all like this, to paraphrase someone's words-are you lying to ghosts?
With a cold glance at his capable subordinate, Long Che said coldly: "Ming Xi, tell the truth."

Unexpectedly, Ming Xi still shook his head, insisting: "It's really fine."

"Is it about the queen?" Long Che could probably guess from his appearance.

Ming Xi immediately rolled his eyes.

Did he really see it?

Seeing the subordinate's reaction, Long Che knew that his guess was right, so he asked, "What did she do again?"

Thinking of what the person who sent the message said to him, Ming Xi felt chills in his heart, quickly bowed his head, bit his lips and remained silent.

If you say it, the emperor won't be mad?

The majestic queen actually drank with a man!
Even if you are in the imperial garden, even if there are no less than ten people around to wait on you, that won't work!Not in line with the ancestral system!
