Counting the days, there are still 15 days before the new year, but there are still 16 days, that is, three months.

Du Cao sat in front of the dressing table: "green ring, where's the general?"

"As soon as the general came back, he was called to the palace." Green ring helplessly sighed: "this more than a month, the capital out of a lot of things, the emperor is now in a mess, but hard to support so many days did not disturb you."

Duckweed nodded: "well."

"Madam, I have a letter from King Huai of Jin Dynasty. Have a look."

Green ring took out a letter and gave it to ducao.

Du Cao looked carefully, then laughed: "this period of time is too comfortable, forget that there is still a business not finished."

"Clean up for me. I'm going to the palace, too."

Du Cao looked at himself in the mirror and unconsciously lived many more years.

Unfortunately, borrowed things always have to be returned.

For many years, it seems sweet, but if you look back at the ending, why is it not the torture wrapped in sugar?

For the rest of my life, if I can't see you again, I'm afraid that both of them will spend their missing time, right?

Is that torture a prison?

Think of here, Du grass's heart, is more painful not taste.

He turned and stood up to open the cupboard and pointed to the innermost dress: "wear this."

"This one?"

Green ring looked at the gorgeous clothes: "yes."

Duckweed doesn't like extravagance. What's the matter today?

Clothes are cumbersome. Green ring helps to change them, but make-up is the old line of ducao, so ducao comes in person.

Du Cao drew a peony flower at the tip of his brow. Then he nodded with satisfaction and went into the palace.

In the past, Du Cao went to Chaoyang Palace first, but this time, he went to Qifeng palace.

If Lin saw that the duckweed was so well dressed, he was stunned for a moment, and then became nervous.

Because she remembers clearly that the last time ducao was so formal, she was still on the main hall, yelling at the officials.

"My wife, see the queen."

Duckweed made a big courtesy.

Lin Ruo quickly helped the man up: "don't be so polite. What's the matter with you?"

"Niang Niang, I want to talk to her alone."

Du Cao smiles and looks at Lin Ruo.

Lin Ruo nodded: "let's all go down."

For a moment, there were only two people left in the huge palace, Du Cao and Lin Ruo.

"Do you know that the lady asked me for Juezi soup?"

Du Cao gently took Lin ruo's hand, with a gentle tone, but the content of this is not gentle.

Lin Ruo looked at Du Cao incredulously: "what? Why? "

Du Cao said with a smile: "in those years, when choosing the queen, you were chosen between you and your concubine, but does the empress know why it was you?"

"Why?"

In fact, Lin Ruo didn't know much about this problem.

Du Cao said with a soft smile: "because you are a smart and sober girl, you have a long time in the harem, and there are too many intrigues, so you need a sober queen. Your concubine is sentimental, and you are doomed not to be such a person."

"The empress should know that the emperor is kind to you, but she really likes your concubine, so the empress is very sad all the time, isn't she?"

Du Cao took Lin ruo's hand and spoke softly. This made Lin Ruo have the illusion that Du Cao was her mother.

Lin Ruo was very depressed: "after entering the palace, I always told myself not to fall in love with the emperor, but to keep my heart. It's better to be a queen. Don't ask too much, but the emperor is gentle and considerate. I..."

"You can't control yourself, can you?"

Du Cao laughed: "the emperor doesn't love you, but he doesn't love you the most, but you love him the most, so you feel aggrieved, don't you?"

Lin Ruo nodded: "I'm really wronged."

"The imperial concubine ate Juezi soup just to make herself unable to bear any more, to make the queen feel at ease, but will the Queen really feel at ease because of this Juezi soup?"

Du Cao looks at Lin Ruo seriously.

If Lin didn't know how to answer this question, he could only bow his head and keep silent.Du Cao laughed: "your two brothers, one is ziyihou, the other is the king of Southern Xinjiang. You are stable, but I still want to give you a treasure."

Then Du Cao took out a list and handed it to Lin Ruo: "this can help you clean up the last group of spies in the palace. From then on, the water in the palace will be cleaner. And this is all the dark villages in southern Xinjiang. They are the best. Your brother is the king of Southern Xinjiang now. I give this to you. With these, even the king of heaven, I don't want to waste it!"

Lin Ruo looked at these things and frowned at the weeds: "do you want to buy my heart with these? Let me no longer love the emperor? "

"Of course you can love him. I just hope you don't lose your eyes because of love. Love can't last forever, but these things can."

Du Cao knew that it was a bit rebellious, but she really didn't want to see Lin Ruo like this.

"You are a noble girl. If you lose yourself in order to fight for breath in front of the emperor, it's not worth it."

Du Cao laughed and touched Lin ruo's head: "you are so smart, do you know what I mean?"

"I understand."

If Lin is not stupid, ducao does this to protect everyone's integrity, including ingenuity.

"I'm sorry. At the beginning, we made a promise that we would never sleep. But we broke our promise and made things like this. I'm sorry."

Du Cao suddenly hugged Lin Ruo and sighed.

There is no reason for such things as feelings.

At this time, Huangfu Yue came in in a hurry, obviously with a little joy, but when he saw Du Cao, his smile froze: "Why are you here?"

"Come to talk with your mother. It's just the emperor's coming. It'll save me another trip."

Du Cao pulled the corner of his mouth and looked at Huangfu Yue with a smile.

Looking at Du Cao's smile, Huangfu Yue felt very creepy: "what are you doing?"

"Yes."

Said duckweed, taking the box in the green ring's hand.

"Isn't the emperor always curious about how much money I have? It's all here now. "

Then the duckweed opened the box. There was a thick stack of documents inside.

Du Cao said with a smile: "this is all I have. All of them are here. The stores, ports, docks, Haikou, factories and embroidery workshops are all here."

"Why do you show me these?" Huangfu Yue frowned at Du Cao.

Du Cao gently laughed, shook his head and said in a low voice: "these are not for the emperor, they are for the emperor."
