Chapter 43

Xiao Yu's face was so hot that he didn't care about his identity. After pushing him away, he turned over and fell asleep inward. As soon as the quilt was lifted over his head, he ignored him. However, Xue Zhan liked her daughter's delicate appearance, and he also leaned against her and hugged her slender waist, put it against her, and his chin was against her shoulder. He didn't say anything, but just hugged her like this.

After watching for a while, I called her: "Niannian."

Xiao Yu was sleepy, his eyelashes trembled, and he ignored him when he closed his eyes.

"Niannian." He called out again. It was warm and hot, and the exhaled heat gently scratched Xiao Yu's cheek.

Xiao Yu still didn't say anything. He thought he would have a rest earlier, but the barbarian was pressing against her face, low and calling her name softly: "Niannian, Niannian..." Looking at the posture, it was endless.

Xiao Yu was hugged by him, and his whole body was warm, like a steamer. She was a little impatient and had to respond and said, "It's getting late, it's time for the emperor to rest, and I'm going to sleep."

The young and strong man naturally has good health. He doesn't sleep much at night and is still energetic the next day. She is different and cannot withstand his endless tossing and causing trouble. It seems that everyone is as energetic as him. After she said that, he really stopped quarreling at her and she fell asleep quickly.

When he was in a daze, he realized that he seemed to have turned himself over and faced him. He kissed her on the face and hugged her no longer. Xiao Yu felt that he was warm and unconsciously reached out and hugged him gently.

In the morning, Xiao Yu got up and Madam Yuan changed her clothes. It was probably what Xue Zhan said last night that Xiao Yu subconsciously looked down at his chest.

The young girl's breasts are full in shape. Although they are not outstanding, because of her slender waist, the breasts are particularly round and upright. The white skin and the pink and red stamens are the most youthful and beautiful years that are just in their buds.

Xiao Yu's pretty face was shining with a faint bright glow, and he muttered in a low voice: "...this rogue."

...

On this day, the court was over, and all civil and military officials retreated in order. Xiao Qizhou was among the military officials. After leaving, he was talking to his colleagues who were close friends when he suddenly heard someone calling him.

Xiao Qizhou turned around.

Seeing the visitor wearing the gray and blue eunuch in front of the imperial eunuch, his face was fair and clean, and his body was like green bamboo. He was stunned and said, "Eunuch He." He Chaoen beside the emperor.

He Chaoen said: "Mr. Xiao, the emperor heard that Master Xiao has excellent archery skills and can penetrate the sun for hundreds of steps. I would like to ask Lord Xiao to go over and discuss with you."

Xiao Qizhou frowned. Although he didn't like the new emperor, he was the eldest son of the Xiao family, so he had to be more steady and did not show it on his face.

The colleague who stood with him saw that it was the emperor who asked He Chaoen to come and call people in person, which shows his respect for Xiao Qizhou. It is not because of Xiao Qizhou's identity and his rank, he has not received such treatment, just because he is the queen's brother-in-law and the emperor's brother-in-law, who is an unusual official. He then took the lead and took the lead.

Just shoot arrows. Xiao Qizhou had nothing to be afraid of, and said, "Then it's time for Eunuch He to lead the way."

He Chaoen smiled slightly and led Xiao Qizhou to the Imperial Garden. Xiao Qizhou walked and looked at He Chaoen quietly beside him, remembering that day he mentioned his sister in front of him and his father.

Then hesitated for a while and asked inadvertently: "Eunuch He stayed in the inner court. I think he knew very well when it happened in the palace. I don't know how the Empress and the Emperor were during these days?" Xue Tie was arrogant and rude, but his sister was young and delicate. If she suffered grievances every year, she could only bear it.

He Chaoen said, "Don't worry, Lord Xiao, the queen gets along well with the emperor."

Yes. Xiao Qizhou was a little unbelievable. When he thought of the emperor's young and burly figure, his thick and strong arms and legs, he felt vaguely worried about his sister... He looked at He Chaoen sideways, thinking that Eunuch He was a person around the emperor, so he was looking at the emperor, so how could he say bad things about Xue Thief?

Xiao Qizhou no longer asks.

An arrow target was set up in the open space outside Wanchun Pavilion in the Imperial Garden. The young and handsome emperor took off his outer robe, rolled up his sleeves, and there were several faint scars on his wheat-colored forearm. When he pulled the long bow, his muscles were bulging. He looked at Kong Wu with great strength and heroic posture. He shot an arrow and hit the bull's eye, and then gave the arrow to Guo Antai beside him.

Guo Antai looked at the imperial bow and arrow in front of him, but he didn't hesitate much. After taking it, he picked up a feather arrow and put it on his head. After aiming, he left the string with a "whisper-" sound. Finally, he shot heavily into the target, but it was a little bit worse than the bull's eye.

Guo Antai was also an archery master in the past. Looking at the current situation, he smiled faintly and said, "It's really not to be abandoned." After Qiwu entered the literature, he practiced less time, and he was no longer as good as before.

Xue Zhan raised his hand and patted his shoulder and said, "It's good that you know." He admired Guo Antai's martial arts, so when he was devoted to literature, he felt a little regretful. He glanced at him and said, "Did you still feel dissatisfied when the Queen's birthday party last time?" That day, he said that his mother made Zhang unable to come to Taiwan, and he was a filial son.

Speaking of the incident that day, Guo Antai smiled awkwardly and said, "The emperor is already much biased with the Guo family. How can I complain? I have always felt guilty and thought about not knowing how to resolve the past grudges with the Xiao family."

As he said that, he remembered another thing.

After Guo Suyi was bullied by Xiao Yuzhi outside that day, although he did not tell Guo Antai when he returned to the mansion, Guo Antai learned about this from the maid beside her. The fifth girl of the Duke's Mansion had been a few times and was a girl who was not easy to mess with. Moreover, after being so humiliated in public, he could not help but ask for justice when he saw Guo Suyi. Although Guo Antai felt sorry for her sister, he couldn't help asking for justice for her, but it was not a solution for a long time. He thought that if he saw Miss Xiao Wu one day, he would go to apologize in person.

They are all little girls with tempers and are not very disgusting. They feel that the Guo family has come to their sincerity, and they are venting their anger and satisfied, so the matter will naturally pass.

He looked at the emperor and continued, "It's the Empress who wants to make the emperor embarrassed."

Xue Zhan said with a soft look: "Although the queen is young, she is not a stingy person."

Guo Antai nodded and said, "Good news has been heard frequently in the northwest these days. I heard that the Duke of the Guardian and General Huo are very close. But..." Looking at the Emperor Yingzi in front of him, Guo Antai whispered, "Does the emperor still have the same plans as before?"

If you want to firmly hold the throne, you will have to remove all obstacles. If the Xiao family is just an ordinary aristocratic family, you don’t have to be afraid. Although you have surrendered now, which emperor can use such a family closely related to the previous dynasty without any warning? Since you are prepared and suspicious, you will be the only one at that time, but now...

After a while, he saw the emperor shoot a feather arrow again. Although he is still bull's eye, Guo Antai understands the emperor's heart. He has always been hit by every shot, but the arrow is slightly off now.

Then, I heard the emperor say lightly: "Let me think about it again."

When he was outside Wanchun Pavilion on Xiaoqizhou Road, he saw Xue Zhan and the Minister of Personnel Guo Antai shooting an arrow. He stood there and looked at the tall figure a few times. After hearing He Chaoen beside him urging him softly, he walked over with him. He stood in front of the emperor and slowly bowed: "Since, Xiaoqizhou, see the emperor."

Xue Zhan looked at the person standing in front of him and said, "Get up, there is no need to be too polite."

Xiao Qizhou stood up. Although the man in front of him was his brother-in-law, he was an emperor after all, and he did not dare to be unreasonable.

He stood for a while, and saw Xue Zhan calling him to shoot arrows, then walked over and took the bow and arrow.

Xue Zhan looked aside.

Seeing that Xiao Qizhou was so handsome that he did have the style of Xiao Huai, but if you want to compare it, you would be slightly better. At this time, the eunuch who was serving him brought tea and Xue Zhan walked aside to drink water.

And Xiao Qizhou was standing in front of the target.

He slowly turned his head and looked at Xue Zhan who was drinking water. Seeing him tilting his head to drink water, he was not prepared at this moment. Xiao Qizhou tightly held his bow tightly, and some fine sweat oozed out of his forehead. The Xue thief destroyed the Great Wei first, and now he occupied his sister again... Xiao Qizhou's hands were tightly clenched, and the blue veins suddenly popped up. He glanced at the feather arrows on the bow, his eyes fixed.

...If this arrow shot directly into the heart of Xue Zhe, he would undoubtedly die!

Xue Zhan paused his hands with the teacup. After hearing the arrow "swoosh" sound, the sound of the arrow shooting into the target, he drank the remaining tea in one mouthful.

Turning his head, he saw Xiao Qizhou's feather arrow hit the bull's eye accurately. Not only that, the feather arrow shot through the target, and the arrow raised directly from behind the target.

Although the person next to him was inferior to his father, this archery technique was beyond his ambition. Xue Zhan smiled and said, "It's really a good archery technique."

Xiao Qizhou handed the bow and arrow to the eunuch beside him. In the sunshine, the young and martial man was sweating on his forehead, clasped his fists with his hands, and said respectfully: "The trick of eagle makes the emperor laugh."

...

Xiao Yu was listening to Xue Zhan's words, and Xue liked quiet very much, so she didn't disturb her. However, when the maid came in and said that Xue asked her to come over and talk, Xiao Yu felt like she was going to face the enemy head-on. She looked as usual and asked the maid to go down, walked into the hall by herself, preparing to change her clothes.

In fact, she doesn't have to be so grand. After all, she is the queen, so when Xue sees her, she should have respected her.

But I decided to decorate it a little.

Chunming bent over and tidyed up the hem of her skirt for her and said, "This Xue relied on the support of the emperor, but she did not take the Empress seriously. Now that she passed, the Empress must have enough momentum. Don't let the Xue feel that the Empress is young and easy to bully. So what about the elders? You are the Empress."

Although she had not had much contact, she could indeed realize that Xue's dislike of herself. However, it didn't matter if she didn't like herself, and it didn't matter... But when she thought that Xue might be Xue Zhan's only relative, she couldn't show her face. She always wanted to be respected when she was old, let alone her nephew was promising now.

Anyway, it’s better to get along with than Zhang. Thinking of this, Xiao Yu felt a little comforted.

When he arrived at Xian'an Palace, Xue was not there, but went to Duixiu Mountain.

Madam Yuan stood beside Xiao Yu, listening to the palace maid's words, feeling quite unhappy: "Since I invited my concubine, why did I suddenly go out?" How could this be the reason?

Of course, it was intentional. Xiao Yu thought that before Xue could speak to her, he began to warn her. He respected her as Aunt Xue Zhan, and Xiao Yu stopped talking, so he let the palace maid lead her to Duixiu Mountain.

But when Xiao Yu arrived at Duixiu Mountain, Xue had already gone to Shouning Palace.

Xue Zhan had told her before that she told her not to go to Shouning Palace again, but now because of Xue, Xiao Yu couldn't care about so much. Not far from Duixiu Mountain is Shouning Palace, but it has been abandoned for a long time and no one has gone there anymore. Xiao Yu walked along the corridor and passed through the Yuedong Gate, and saw a figure standing there, following a palace maid next to him.

Xiao Yu walked slowly over, stood in front of her, and said, "Why did Aunt come here?"

That night, Xue had never looked at her carefully. Now she saw the daughter of the Xiao family, with her cloudy hair and beautiful face, and her appearance was even better than the queen of Na Xi and the Emperor.

Xue didn't like her, and stood with her, even with her smile. She said, "I heard that the camellia here is the best, so I wanted to come and take a look..." He glanced at the messy ground indifferently, and continued, "It's just that if you leave the house, you can't do it."

When her aunt was alive in the past, the Shouning Palace was full of flowers all year round. The spring camellia was even more unique. However, her aunt was the Empress Dowager of the previous dynasty, and her identity was always a little sensitive.

Xiao Yu did not mention this matter and said, "This place has been abandoned for a long time. If my aunt likes camellia, the Chengruiting in the Imperial Garden will bloom the best."

Xue said: "Okay."

He walked to the front when he spoke.

Looking at the back of Xue, Madam Yuan whispered beside Xiao Yu: "Empress, we..."

Although he was ready, he didn't expect that Xue's attitude was like this. Xiao Yu was also aware of the general idea. Now he did not care about the Xue's as much as he did, and just said, "Let's go."
