It is hot in summer, and the cicadas and frogs are annoying.

The Empress Dowager naturally got the secret iced sour plum soup early, and gave it to the frightened emperor yesterday, and sent it to the shadow imperial court. While enjoying it herself, she sent people to see if the prince in the imperial study room had returned.

The mouth was sour and sweet, and the queen mother's eyes were bright. If she hadn't been concerned about her image, she would have taken off all her grand clothes and threw them away, then lay comfortably on the bamboo mat, and then sat down and held the exquisite small jar of sour plum soup to taste.

However, she couldn't do this. She was the queen mother in front of others, and she was still the kind of queen mother who was not firmly in her position.

At this time, if it were Xia Jiejie, she would probably have dismissed everyone immediately. She tear her skin mask and take off her socks, and she would be liberated as quickly as possible.

Maybe this is why the Empress Dowager is the Empress Dowager, not the Black Emperor.

Perhaps because of the influence of her uncle, the Empress Dowager also raised a pond of fish. She liked to go and see it when she had nothing to do. There were many varieties, but most of them were mainly ornamental, and they sprinkled some fish and food, and they rushed to the scene, just like white clouds and red clouds gathered.

At this time, it was already dusk, and the Queen Mother sat by the small fish pond. The palace maids on both sides were blowing the wind. While drinking sour plum soup, she watched the fish swim around, and she felt a little tired after watching it.

Suddenly the curtain behind him was lifted.

The little palace maid dressed in green clothes said, "Empress Dowager, the prince is back."

"oh?"

The empress dowager's eyes lit up and threw the sour plum soup that she had just eaten to the palace maid beside her, and then said, "Give it the jar of sour plum soup that was still stored in the ice cellar this morning."

Then she got up and asked the palace maids to wait outside the door. She tidied her hair and eyebrows in front of the bronze mirror.

Well, this life is also interesting. The only man in the palace is uncle, so at least he has to live a sense of ritual, right?

The Queen Mother thought.

Not long after, she heard the footsteps outside the door, and thought that the palace maid who had sent to get the sour plum soup was back, so she stepped out of the threshold and said, "Set up, the Ai family is going to the imperial study."

The sedan chair passed through some quiet corridors. The guards carrying the sedan chair knew the right amount. At the signal of the empress dowager, the sedan chair stopped at a distance of hundreds of meters from the entrance of the imperial study room.

The petite empress dowager held the sour plum soup and walked over.

My eyes were snapped, and there was no one in the yard.

The Empress Dowager looked at the bright spot in the imperial study, so she went up to knock on the door and said softly: "Uncle, it's hot, I've sent some sour plum soup to relieve the heat."

There was no sound in the room.

The Queen Mother shouted again: "Uncle?"

Then he blinked and then leaned over to the door to listen to the sound inside.

At this moment, the door suddenly opened, and the queen mother was unstable. She screamed and staggered and rushed into the door. Then she felt her head was pushed by a hand, and the sour plum soup jar in her arms was fortunately sealed and had never been spilled out because of this.

King Shenwu had just taken off his mud clothes, took a shower, and changed into a relaxed nightgown. At this time, his left five fingers stretched out, holding the head of the petite woman in front of him.

"Sister-in-law is really mean." Xia Guang was speechless. Since he moved into the Imperial Study room, he will definitely not lose his night snack every night. I think his sister-in-law is bored and has nothing to do, otherwise he would not have played palace fighting during the day and had midnight snacks at night.

The empress dowager coughed gently, her eyes turned around, and she seemed to want to see if there was anyone inside. Her uncle was young and full of energy at this time. She probably had just learned about men and women, and even if she brought a woman back, it would be understandable.

As a result, I was knocked out by myself and stood coldly at the door.

"What are my sister-in-law watching?"

"nothing"

The Queen Mother smiled and waved her hand, then remembered what she came today, and said seriously: "Uncle, I have two things to tell you."

Xia Guang took the sour plum soup, then moved away, pointed to an empty chair in the room and said, "Sit down, sister-in-law."

The empress dowager was about to sit down, but after thinking about it, she ran over and uncovered the sealed cover of the sour plum soup and pushed it to Xia Guang. "Thank you for your hard work, I don't want to disturb you, but I thought that my uncle might not know where to go tomorrow, so I came here."

She slowly sat back in her seat and said concisely: "I'm here, two things, the first thing is, the emperor was assassinated yesterday. I wonder what uncle thinks about it?"

After saying that, she looked at the King Shenwu in front of her nervously. The Empress Dowager naturally had her own channels and knew that the leader of the White Lotus Sect was Wang Jiuying, who had taken care of King Shenwu.

She was afraid that her uncle would still care about her feelings, so she would rather her nephew be killed and change it, than to draw a sword against her former relative.

Then she said she had to use her little tongue to change her uncle's thoughts.

Xia Guang paused and naturally understood the Queen Mother's intention, so he said, "More than ten years ago, I let her go, and I will deal with it this time."

The empress dowager breathed a sigh of relief and her chest also fluttered. "Uncle understands the righteousness, I admire him."

King Shenwu only found it interesting. These royal people all looked like this. They stretched their left hand and held the porcelain jar of sour plum soup in their palms, so they went up to drink it.

At this time, he was indeed a little thirsty. The sweet and sour plum soup fell into his throat, and it immediately eliminated a lot of the anger in his body. It turned around in his stomach, and it was cold and comfortable. He looked up and looked at the pink and petite empress dowager in front of him, and asked, "What else is there?"

The Queen Mother was a little disgusted.

Her aura can shock the princes and ministers, and the underworld, but she can't suppress her uncle. In front of King Shenwu, although she was a few years older, she felt like a child in front of Xia Guang.

Xia Guang didn't urge her, and the candle oil dripped, making a Bilibili sound. In this empty night, it was really too quiet.

The silhouettes of the two were reflected on the wall by flames, one east and one west, without overlapping each other.

The hot wind in the crack of the door was rushing in with the cicadas, but it caused the candlelight to sway slightly. The figures of the two also swayed, each in one place, and seemed a little lonely.

The Queen Mother quickly smiled and said, "Uncle should find a princess."

Without waiting for an answer, she hurriedly started selling, and she opened her mouth and said nonstop, which daughter is well-educated, which daughter is Shenyu and falls in geese, which daughter has just grown up, and the talented men in the entire imperial capital are crazy about it.

Xia Guang listened for a long time, but he didn't say a word, but sipped the sour plum soup in one mouthful.

After drinking the soup, he put down the still cold porcelain jar, "Thank you for your kindness."

When the empress dowager heard this, she knew there was no chance. She glared at her almond eyes and said a little higher: "Uncle, I'll find a few to show you first. I'll talk about it if I'm not satisfied. There are many women in the world who like you and admire you. I know that Miss Huangpu has a deep affection for you, and you are the same with her, but how many young people have?

If she knew about it underground, she would be sad when she saw you now, right?"

Xia Guang looked at the woman in front of her. She looked more anxious than herself. After thinking about her age, she really should start a family and start a career. Other men as old as hers may have three wives and four concubines, so it is no wonder that her sister-in-law is worried.

So he fell silent.

The Queen Mother seemed to see hope and asked cautiously: "I wonder what uncle likes?"
