Chapter 142 The Queen of the Li Palace 11
In the afternoon, it happened that the sun was blocked by the mountains, and the sunlight spread among the trees, shining on unknown wild vegetables.

A plain white hand caresses the top of the mushroom.

"Miss Tang, what are you picking? You can't pick mushrooms randomly."

Li Xiaotao grabbed Zihua's hand nervously, and saw that it was holding a grayish-white mushroom, so she let go of her hand and let go of her hand.

"Yes, that's it. Do you remember to only pick this kind later?"

Zihua nodded. She was not a fool. Of course she picked mushrooms that she had seen and eaten before. Who would pick mushrooms that she had never seen before?

After Zihua picked wild vegetables with Li Xiaotao, he separated from her.

It's not that she said that although Li Xiaotao is younger than her, she likes to discuss other people's family affairs just like Cui's aunts. She is not very interested in other people's family affairs, and can only influence other people's troubles. I really don't understand There is nothing to discuss.

Moreover, the credibility of those things is not high, they are all added with oil and vinegar, and it is not good for her to judge a person.

Li Xiaotao might have also noticed that she didn't like to listen to those words. When the two picked one again, she began to ask mainly about Tang Hua, asking him what he likes to eat and what he likes to do.

Zihua said something, but the movement of his hands didn't stop, he was still looking for wild vegetables.

The two of them kept chatting until the sky turned gray, then they went down the mountain with the basket in hand.

On the road, I happened to meet Tang Hua and Li Xuan who were riding together.

Li Xuan saw Zihua walking with a person dressed as a peasant woman, holding a bamboo basket in his hand, his eyes almost fell out of shock.

Tang Hua was already used to it and asked Li Xuan to stop his horse so that he could go back. He dismounted and walked to Zi Hua's side to take the basket for her and walked at the front.

The wild vegetables are not as sweet as the ones grown at home, and they always have a bitter taste. After Zihua tasted a couple of mouthfuls, she didn't want to eat them and only ate mushrooms.

Halfway through the meal, someone called outside the door.

Tang Hua put down his chopsticks to open the door, chatted for a while, and when he came back, he had a small bamboo plate in his hand, which contained some delicate green pastries.

Zihua took a sip, and it was delicious.

"Miss Li said this is a pastry made from freshly picked wild vegetables. Is it delicious?"

Zihua nodded, "It's delicious, slightly sweet but not greasy, and has a hint of herbal fragrance. You can try it yourself."

Hearing his high evaluation, Tang Hua moved his index finger and stuffed his mouth to the full.

He also thought it was delicious, but the downside was that after eating, he didn't want to eat the plate of wild vegetables fried by Zihua.

Wild vegetables ended up being food for cattle.

After Zihua left the palace, the days were leisurely, without having to take care of the Sangong and Sixth Courtyard, and nearly a year passed without any hassle.

On the contrary, there are turbulent waves going on in the imperial palace and harem all the time, every sentence and every word has to be weighed more than twenty times before daring to say it, because people often get caught for saying a word less or more. Braided, framed, misunderstood, and killed.

Working under such heavy pressure, many concubines began to experience severe hair loss and their faces were withered and yellow.

Not only that, because there are rumors in the palace that the former queen's grievances are causing trouble, the more people in the palace leave inexplicably, the more panicked people will be.

Furthermore, those people who have not been seen are all those whom the emperor favored recently, knowing that the former empress was jealous, every time she knew that she was going to bed, no matter if it was a concubine or a beautiful girl who had just entered the palace, they were all like enemies, Trembling, as soon as one Mo Ming left, the others were frightened and bedridden the next day.

It's a vicious cycle.

In this way, even if dozens of beautiful girls are newly selected, the number of women in the harem is still declining, and there are only a hundred people left, and half of them are sick.

What a terrible thing this is, the rate of sharp decline in numbers can be compared to the number of soldiers lost when fighting against foreign enemies.

Xie Yi also felt heartbroken. However, Tang Rong, who was already the queen, could not find the person who caused trouble in the palace no matter how hard he searched. Even if he found out, he still found the corresponding evidence and finally put the person in a cell and left the harem. There are still people who are mysteriously missing.

Xie Yi was exhausted, and in the end he didn't care about the affairs of the harem, and he only loved Tang Rong. At first he was afraid that something would happen to her, but after the two got drunk a few times, she was still safe and sound after being in the same room, so he was relieved up.

Li Xuan also secretly investigated the chaos in the harem a few times, but after he checked, all the maids who had just asked about the incident had accidents. Coupled with his dissatisfaction with Xie Yi's recent reduction of his military power, he He gave up and continued the investigation.

It’s the summer of the year again, Tang Hua’s good friend Liu Qiuming held a wedding banquet on this day, and it was the first time Zihua encountered an ancient banquet, so she untied her hair and tied it into a long ponytail, then changed into men’s clothing, and followed suit. Tang Hua went.

In fact, Liu Qiuming was supposed to get married at this time last year, but because he had to go to war temporarily, and there was no auspicious date, the marriage was delayed again and again until today.

At the wedding banquet, there were many acquaintances of Tang Huajun, and some of them had seen Zihua before, but she had tied up her hair and had a prominent Adam's apple assist, even if those people thought she looked like the former queen, they would not say She is a former queen.

At most, I only asked Tang Hua if there was a younger brother born with the former empress in the Tang family.

Tang Hua felt that Zihua's disguise technique was powerful, so he only introduced her as his distant cousin to those who asked.

While chatting and laughing, the glowing red Xiqiao has been carried to the front of the door.

Liu Qiuming, wearing a red wedding dress, dismounted and carried the people on the bridge across the fire plate. They each walked in holding a piece of red rope. They came to the high hall noisily. Just as he was about to kneel down, "Your Majesty" sounded outside the door. , the queen has arrived."

This high-pitched voice is not inferior to any TV series at all, making Zihua deeply feel that he is watching someone filming a movie, and for a moment he forgot to salute and stood there watching the Ming Emperor stepping in.

Seeing her standing there blankly, Tang Hua thought it was Zihua's unrequited love for Xie Yi, so he tugged on her cuff worriedly.

At this moment, Zihua finally saw that she was the only one standing in the audience, and everyone else was kneeling.

She curled her lips and knelt down, imitating the posture of the person opposite her.

Xie Yi's sudden appearance displeased the groom Liu Qiuming.

He had not forgotten that the emperor had recently reduced Li Xuan's military power. As a result, half of the soldiers in his hands, which originally numbered a hundred, were now in the hands of Zhang Sansu. Now they wanted to join in the excitement of his big day, which was a bit hypocritical.

Moreover, the guests of their two families are ordinary people, not officials. His appearance made them panic. One can imagine the scene during the dinner later. The audience was silent, which was worse than a funeral Be quiet.

With him around, who would dare to let go of eating meat and drinking alcohol, fearing that he would not even dare to take a sip of wine, for fear that he would spit out some nonsense after drinking, which would annoy the emperor, cause trouble in vain, and bring about some disasters for himself , Seriously, the family members were involved.
