075

He actually asked her to guess.

Is there any good news?

"Your Majesty, do you have good news for me?"

"……no."

Chu Yin frowned and looked at Lu Jingzhuo carefully.

If it wasn't good news, could it be bad news? But judging from his expression, it didn't seem like it.

Seeing Chu Yin was at a loss, Lu Jingzhuo stood up and said, "Follow me."

Waiting any longer would be a waste of time.

"...Where are you going?" Chu Yin wondered.

"The Qianqing Palace."

Why did he ask her to go there? He was going to take care of government affairs, what was she going to do? She couldn't be there to grind ink for him...

Chu Yin was confused.

Holding the man's hand, she asked, "What happened?"

She was usually very smart, but today she couldn't guess such a simple thing. Lu Jingzhuo glanced at her and didn't answer.

Chu Yin became more and more confused.

Isn't he always very direct in his words? Why is he being so secretive?

When they arrived in front of the dragon chariot, Lu Jingzhuo got on first, and Chu Yin followed closely behind.

Just as she was about to sit down beside him, the man reached out and held her on his lap.

Could it be that he was going to do something shameful so early in the morning? Chu Yin's cheeks were slightly hot: "Isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Although there was no need to attend the morning court today, this was on the way to the Qianqing Palace, so he couldn't be so unrestrained.

He raised his eyebrows slightly: "Not good? What do you think I'm going to do?"

Isn't this obvious? Chu Yin said, "Then put me down."

He didn't let go.

He just held her waist with one hand, without ruffling her dress or taking any further action.

Chu Yin thought that he would only tell her when they got to the Qianqing Palace.

Who thought that they were at the palace gate, and the two of them came down together, but he said, "You go back."

Chu Yin was completely stunned.

She suspected that she had heard it wrong, but this was exactly what Lu Jingzhuo meant.

Looking at the man's receding back, Chu Yin felt as if she was being teased.

Seeing the queen dumbfounded, the driver did not dare to disturb her immediately. After a while, he said cautiously, "My queen, is it time to return to Kunning Palace?"

"Yeah." Chu Yin turned around and sat on the dragon chariot.

The sun has risen, and the clouds of morning glow are like layers upon layers of orange-red tuna scales covering the sky.

The breeze blew on my face, mixed with the fragrance of roadside roses.

Nothing happened just now. I just sat with him on the dragon chariot for a while. I really don't know why he was like this.

Chu Yin held her chin and looked at the towering palace walls outside the window.

He was too busy to wait for her just to do this. It was not like she had ever ridden in the dragon chariot before. On the day of her coronation, they rode together from the Hall of Supreme Harmony back to the Kunning Palace. There was no way he didn't remember it.

So why did it have to be today, why did it have to be so early in the morning...

The thought flashed through her mind, and she remembered that she had sent her son to Chunhui Pavilion before.

She let out a chuckle and her shoulders shook with laughter.

After being reminded by the emperor, even Minister Tao restrained himself a bit.

At first, he received the order from the late emperor, saying that the crown prince should be treated strictly and could be punished at his own discretion, and he did all the same. Now that the crown prince is the Son of Heaven, there is a difference between the monarch and his subjects, so he should also obey orders and be a little lenient with the new crown prince.

Therefore, when Lu Wei came back in the evening, he did not cry with red eyes.

At the door, his sister was waiting for him.

"Brother, try these cherries. They're so sweet." She held the bowl in front of him.

Lu Wei was stunned and did not reach out to take it.

"Brother, you've worked hard studying," Lu Zhen smiled, "Eat quickly."

At this moment, my sister's smile is sweeter than any fruit.

Lu Wei couldn't help but feel ashamed.

He even made faces at his sister.

"Thank you." He took a cherry and ate it, his face turning a little red.

It turns out that his sister cares about him very much. He should be nicer to her in the future!

After eating the cherries, they went to pay their respects to their mother.

"Is Minister Tao not so fierce anymore?" Chu Yin asked.

"Still fierce, just a little better... But I will try not to cry," Lu Yu was a little embarrassed and glanced at Lu Zhen, "I can't be worse than my sister."

Chu Yin held him in her arms and said, "What I said is not quite right. The female officials who teach Zhen'er are not as strict as your lecturers, so you don't have to compare with Zhen'er. But your father loves you very much, so he asked the lecturers to be flexible. You can't let your father down, understand?"

Dad must care about him very much, Lu Wei nodded vigorously.

Lu Jingzhuo came back early today and had dinner with her.

"Fortunately, His Majesty loves Er'er. Er'er didn't cry this time and said he would study hard."

She loves her son, so there is no need to give him all the credit.

Of course, it's not that he doesn't love his eldest son, but he thinks being strict with children is not a bad thing. However, Chu Yin has been with the children much longer than he has and understands them better than he does, so he is willing to listen to Chu Yin's advice.

"A loving mother often spoils her children. Don't be too indulgent towards him," he warned.

Chu Yin frowned and said, "I don't think this is right. The Queen Mother is a loving mother, but I don't think Your Majesty is a bad boy."

Is this an exaggeration?

Lu Jingzhuo raised his lips and said, "I'm not blaming you. I'm just reminding you that in two years, Er'er should move out of Kunning Palace. He has to be independent."

"I understand, but it is because he will be independent sooner or later that I am soft-hearted. When he grows up, maybe he won't tell me many things anymore, but will just keep them in his heart..." When children grow up, they will gradually drift away from their parents.

Lu Jingzhuo was slightly stunned.

He had never thought of such a situation.

Indeed, when he grew up, he no longer shared his true feelings with his parents.

He suddenly grew up when he was five years old.

"As long as you don't go too far," he said.

Obviously taking a step back, Chu Yin laughed: "So Your Majesty should also seize the time to get closer to them, such as teaching Er'er to ride a horse."

"The Horse Supervisor has already prepared the horses. I'll see when I'm free."

"Um."

After dinner, Lu Jingzhuo stood up and went to the side hall: "I will go and test what they have learned."

Is this considered closeness? Chu Yin thought, wouldn't it make the two children more afraid of him?

"Your Majesty, don't be too harsh!" she reminded hurriedly, while keeping up with his footsteps.

Fortunately, Lu Jingzhuo still listened to what was said just now and did not have a stern face, which scared the two children into tears.

Instead, they had a lot of fun asking and answering questions.

When the two came back, Chu Yin smiled and took his arm.

"Is Your Majesty not too busy recently? Is there anything important happening in the court?" she asked tentatively.

Didn't she tell him to take care of his body?

He certainly won't tire himself out.

"It's always like this whether you're busy or not, there's always something to do..." There will always be problems, there will always be natural disasters and man-made calamities, they keep coming one after another. Fortunately, she is by his side. He lifted her chin and bent down to kiss her.

Chu Yin hadn't mentioned the Northern Tour yet, and it was difficult for her to say it clearly, otherwise he would definitely be suspicious.

"If Your Majesty needs someone to share your worries, I am willing to listen at any time."

He smiled and pinched her waist with his fingers: "You know what I need most."

When you talk to him seriously, he changes the subject.

Disgusting!

Chu Yin said, "I don't know." She walked into the hall.

He was not in a hurry to chase her, because Chu Yin would go to bed soon anyway.

At 11 p.m., Chu Yin had indeed washed up and was ready for bed.

He hugged her from behind and kissed her ears and neck.

The more times he did it and the more precise the teasing was, the more she soon couldn't bear it and her whole body went limp.

At the critical moment, Chu Yin said: "Not today."

"Why?" He stopped.

"My period is coming..."

Lu Jingzhuo frowned, but quickly said, "Not really."

Chu Yin always looks listless and listless when she is menstruating. How could she be like that today?

He reached down: "Really?"

I never fooled him.

Chu Yin hurriedly crossed her legs and said, "No, actually, actually, I have to accompany Er to Chunhui Pavilion again tomorrow."

Lu Jingzhuo said nothing.

Chu Yin turned her head and found that the man's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

She almost laughed out loud.

"Aren't you afraid anymore? Why do I need you to send me off?" He quickly calmed himself down.

"This is the last time," she tugged at his sleeve, "Would you please wait one more day, please? I'm afraid I won't be able to get up... You always need to stay up for a while, and then you have to clean up, so you can't go to bed until the end of the night."

He has been very restrained, so why does she think he is taking too long?

For a moment, Lu Jingzhuo didn't know whether he should be proud or think Chu Yin was too weak.

But there is nothing much to say.

He grabbed her wrist and pressed down: "It'll save you some time."

Just wash your hands.

Chu Yin: “…”

I wanted to bargain, but was stopped by his stern expression.

If you don't accept this approach, it will only become more violent.

At that moment, she really didn't want to get up early tomorrow.

But no matter how dissatisfied she was, she also remembered his kindness.

So I still got up at the hour of Mao the next day.

Lu Jingzhuo looked at her, feeling a little mixed, but he didn't intend to say anything. He got dressed and sat down to eat.

Chu Yin smiled secretly in her heart but didn't show it on her face.

After finishing the meal, when he stood up and prepared to go out, Chu Yin followed him.

They passed the side hall, but she did not stop.

Lu Jingzhuo stopped and said, "Aren't you going to send Er to Chunhui Pavilion?"

She couldn't help but smile: "I changed my mind. I want to send His Highness off today."

It turns out that last night...

He understood everything instantly.

She wanted to give him a surprise.

But you teased him on purpose last night, didn't you? You pretended to send your son away.

"Well, let's go." The man's expression was calm.

Chu Yin pouted slightly: "Are you unhappy?" Shouldn't she smile especially brightly?

What's wrong with this person?

She went to great lengths to give him a surprise, and this is his reaction?

"What do you want from me? It's just a gift. You also gave it to Er."

Chu Yin was so angry that she almost turned around and left.

As a result, after sitting on the dragon chariot, the man pressed her directly on the seat.

"You're not unhappy," she noticed the joy in his eyes, "Why are you..."

"You are the only one allowed to tease me?" He raised his eyebrows.

"...You're so stingy. I won't send you off next time." She said coquettishly.

Kissing her soft and rosy lips, he said hoarsely: "Once is enough."

She closed her eyes and endured his strong love at this moment.

The dragon chariot was galloping along the wide path, and the only sounds around were the sound of horse hooves and wheels...

When the coach was almost reaching the Qianqing Palace, the driver was ordered to turn around and go to Yu Garden.

The two people in the car held hands from the beginning to the end.

Chu Yin's palms were sweating.

I couldn't make a sound and almost bit my lip.

When he stopped, he looked at his wife lying on her back with tears in her eyes. He almost couldn't control himself again, but it was not appropriate to continue on the dragon chariot.

He bent down and kissed the corner of her eye, then asked, "Do you want me to take you back?"

The dragon chariot running to Yu Garden was already very conspicuous. It would go to Kunning Palace and then run back to Qianqing Palace. It was hard not to think too much. Chu Yin shook her head: "No, Your Majesty, please go to Qianqing Palace first."

He didn't force it.

After sitting down, I picked up the memorial, but I was unable to concentrate, which was unusual.

Her suppressed yet joyful expression under him just now, as well as her almost inaudible moan, emerged in his mind, and his eyes couldn't help but become deep.

If I go on a northern tour in a while, I'm afraid I'll miss her a lot, right?

He was beginning to feel that way.

However, early in the morning, Chu Yin took a bath, changed her clothes, and then lay down on the couch amid the palace maids' expressions that said "the emperor likes the empress so much".

Even though it was a bit embarrassing just now, she did enjoy it. It's just that Lu Jingzhuo asked her to use her hand last night.

How did this person's desire become so strong?

I don't know if he will become weaker in this aspect as he gets older. She is 22 years old this year and can still cooperate. But I can't guarantee that it will still be the same in another ten years.

But Lu Jingzhuo is four years older than her, and he is so busy with government affairs, so it is impossible for him to still be so vigorous ten years later, right?

You’re thinking too far ahead, Chu Yin shook her head, let’s talk about it after we get through next year.

She didn't know if she could get over that hurdle.

beginning of winter……

Recalling that bone-chilling day of death, a shadow instantly covered her heart.

In the evening, Lu Jingzhuo returned at 11:00 p.m.

Chu Yin just went to bed.

He sat on the bed and said, "Get up early tomorrow."

Would he ask her to send him to the Qianqing Palace?

But didn’t you say before that “once is enough”?

How can a king go back on his word?

Chu Yin refused, frowning and saying, "I'm very tired after getting up early for two days in a row. I'm afraid I can't get up." Did he not only want her to get up early, but also want to do that thing on the dragon chariot? How indecent!

Lu Jingzhuo said, "So you don't want to go to Tuer Mountain?"

"What Tu'er..." Chu Yin paused, her beautiful eyes widened, "You want to take me to Tu'er Mountain?"

"Aren't you tired?" He said calmly, "Don't force yourself."

"No need to force it," Chu Yin sat up immediately, "Are you really going to take me with you?"

Those eyes were as bright as if they were sprinkled with broken stars.

The corners of his lips curled up: "Yes."

Before the northern tour, he decided to take Chu Yin out for a trip. Whether it was to please her or to satisfy himself, it was a worthwhile thing to do.

Chu Yin came over, put her arms around his neck and kissed his lips.

Without words, actions are enough to express joy.

He took a deep breath and said, "If you keep kissing me, you won't be able to get up early tomorrow."

Chu Yin froze and quickly let go of her hand.

If he wanted to play in Tuer Mountain for a while longer, he would have to leave the city earlier and come back earlier. He still had some time to read the memorials. Lu Jingzhuo lay down and said, "Go to sleep."

Chu Yin hummed.

Lying down beside him, she suddenly asked, "Yu'er, is Zhen'er going?" They couldn't just go out to play and leave the two children at home, right? As for Yu'er, he was still young and definitely couldn't be taken out.

Lu Jingzhuo pondered for a moment and said, "If you want to take them, then they can go."

"Of course I want to bring it," Chu Yin leaned into his arms, "it will be more lively with four of us."

"Well, then they will suspend classes for one day."

Chu Yin smiled and pinched his chest with her fingers: "I remember the emperor said that the pine branches on Tuer Mountain are very fragrant and can be used for barbecue, right?"

"Yes, I asked Dong Ling to prepare the barbecue ingredients."

She was immediately attracted to it.

They had never gone out for fun in their previous lives, but they did so in this life, but only for convenience, mainly to supervise farm work.

She didn't expect that he would take her out of the palace soon after he ascended the throne.

A little excited.

I couldn't help but imagine a family of four having fun in the mountains.

Feeling the woman beside him tossing and turning from time to time, Lu Jingzhuo opened his eyes and asked, "Why aren't you sleeping yet?"

"I suddenly can't sleep...what should I do?" She wanted to sleep, but her heart couldn't calm down.

I don’t know why.

"Maybe you're not tired enough." He looked at her and said seriously.

"...Then how do I get tired?" She didn't think about it carefully, she just wanted to fall asleep quickly.

Isn't this the simplest thing?

He grabbed her arm and pulled her under him with one force.

Chu Yin realized belatedly that she had once again walked a sheep into the tiger's mouth!
