Putting on the crown of court clothes, the slightly higher collar is enough to cover up the marks on the neck, but the corner of the lips, Ah Mo said that he would try his best.

The sky was bright, and the carriage drove into the palace.

In the Taiji Hall, the courtiers changed a lot of new faces, and congratulated Zhebie for waking up safely.

And Si Tu replied with a smile, showing that he was in a good mood.

It would be perfect if you could ignore the tingling sensation on your lips.

Xi He was in a good mood naturally after a large tumor was removed from the previous dynasty.

But the frequent changes in the Western Regions recently made her a little uneasy, and even the bottom of her eyes glowed with a faint dark blue.

In the morning and after the court, Liang Zhen, wearing an official robe with a black crane bottom, wanted to approach him several times.

But they were all blocked by the ministers around Si Tu.

Vaguely, she always felt that there was a malicious gaze staring at her.

He looked up suddenly, but it happened to collide with Si Bing's slightly gloating eyes.

Before Si Tu could think about it, he saw A Nian summoning himself to the Taiji Hall with an oral order.

The two passed through the hall. On the way, Si Tu couldn't help but ask,

"Aunt, is the Queen Mother in good health recently?"

The last time she came, she had already seen the gray of Xi He's temples.

think it was due to hard work.

A Nian's eyes were kind, and he said with a light smile,

"If someone else asked this question, I'm afraid it would have been dragged out by His Majesty and beheaded."

However, the Third Highness is the one she has seen since childhood, and her concern is the most sincere.

"I am my mother's daughter, connected by blood, so naturally I care about her."

The huge dynasty was carried on the thin shoulders of a woman, and the dragon robe must be very heavy.

"Then please, Your Highness, share your worries with Your Majesty."

As soon as Ah Nian finished speaking, the two arrived at the Tai Chi Hall.

The eunuch pushed open the half-closed door, as if waiting for Si Tu's arrival.

Most of the incense in the hall was lit, and there were piles of memorials and candles burning to the candlestick in front of the imperial table.

think she stayed up all night.

"No matter how important national affairs are, the Queen Mother should also pay attention to her body."

Si Tu's voice made Xihe look up from the heavy memorial.

When she went to court, she was far away, and she never saw the abnormal shape on the corner of Si Tu's lips, but she could see it clearly now.

"It seems that A Tu gets along well with that ninth prince."

The two were originally married, and Xihe did not ask them to be able to mingle, but at least they had to respect each other as guests.

However, the relationship between the two does not seem to need her to worry about.

There was a slight tingling on his lips, and Si Tu scolded Zhebie no less than ten times in his heart today.

The shame was thrown into the Taiji Temple, she didn't want to lose face?

"It's okay, it's fine."

It would be a blessing if it could go on like this

But all of this is based on deception and concealment, so how can it last?

Xihe naturally saw the delicate state of her daughter's family clearly and understood in her heart.

The young girl's love for the first time is very much like when she was young.

It's just that as a child of the royal family, there are some things that cannot be measured by feelings.

"The Western Regions have been changing frequently recently, A Tu, you should understand what I mean."

Xihe used "Zhen", which means that the current two people are not mother and daughter, but monarch and minister.

Situ naturally understood that Jiuli was the first to bear the brunt of the changes in the Western Regions.

As the only fortress connecting the countries of the Western Regions with Da Zhou, if Jiuli were to defect, Da Zhou would fall into a border crisis again.

"Erchen will place dark guards around him in the name of protection to monitor his every move in Beijing."

With her assurance, Xi He's hanging hearts also let go a little.

Sure enough, it was her daughter, who judged the situation and would not be swayed by feelings.

"A Tu, you must know that men are the most unreliable things in this world. Only power can bring us supreme glory."

She has been ups and downs in the harem for many years, from a small talent, to the queen, and finally to the world.

How could it be the shaky and restless heart of the late emperor?

"Daughter, understand."

Situ bowed his hands in salute, and raised his eyes again, his eyes were clear.

After leaving the Taiji Palace, Situ Chang let out a sigh of relief.

No wonder Si Bing looked at her like that, because he knew about the turmoil in the Western Regions.

If she tries to keep Zhe farewell, she will surely make Xi He dissatisfied.

It is better to use retreat as advance, just by the assassination, allocating the dark guard to him to protect him.

As for the detective, Si Tu just spoke in front of Xi He, and did not intend to take action.

After returning to the Princess Mansion, Ah Wu ran over excitedly and said mysteriously,

"My servant just heard Tuo Sahe say that today is His Highness Zhebie's birthday."

This is the first birthday of the future concubine in the Princess Mansion, so it is natural to take care of it.

Furthermore, since the completion of the Princess Mansion, there has not been a single celebration, so this time will make up for it.

"Birthday? Why haven't I heard him mention it?"

The corners of Si Tu's lips twitched lightly, celebrating his birthday, of course he had to have a good time.

"His Royal Highness Zhebie must have a thin skin when he first arrived in the Central Plains, so he can't save face."

After all, he's a big man, so he's too embarrassed to talk about this kind of thing.

At this moment, the really thin-skinned Zhebei was lying on the table and said listlessly,

"Are you sure that our conversation was overheard by Ah Tu, why didn't Ah Tu come to wish me a happy birthday?"

heard that you can eat a bowl of longevity noodles when you celebrate your birthday here in the Central Plains.

He also really wanted to taste the noodles that A Tu made with his own hands.

Tu Shahe, who was on the side, was so troubled by his sorrowful eyes that he couldn't see it.

Saying you are stupid and white is too light, this is a love brain.

Zhebie slapped the table, since A Tu didn't come to him, then he couldn't find A Tu.

It's good to see her after all.

But before he entered Xuanji Pavilion, he was stopped by the guards who were guarding outside.

"His Royal Highness has ordered that no one is allowed to enter Xuanji Pavilion."

Glancing at Zhebie's eyes that were about to burst into flames, the guard added another fire in time,

"Ninth Highness also includes you, of course."

Zebei:

"What is the name of the ninth highness, the concubine."

No vision at all.

"Yes, Consort."

The third highness was really good to this concubine, and the guards changed their names very smoothly.

Since the main entrance can not enter, it can only climb the window.

Tsk tsk, had to force him to use force.

Going around the grove on one side, Zhebie flew over the eaves and quietly lifted a piece of rubble.

Through the gap, he could just see the appearance of Si Tu sitting at the desk and approving the memorial.

The red brush swayed, and the sun fell on her shoulders, making her face more beautiful.

Well, she's so busy, so don't disturb her.

As for her birthday, it's not a passing day, her political affairs are more important.

Although Zhebei thought so generously, there was still a faint tingling feeling in his heart.

If only he was the red pen in her hand, so that she could hold him and he could accompany her for a long time.
