Chapter 440

However, as soon as he lay down, he heard a message that Li Chengjun was coming.

Li Chengjun is the Queen's cousin. They had a good relationship when they were young. When the queen first entered the palace, Li Chengjun was afraid that she would be lonely in the back palace, so he often came to the palace to play. Later, when he saw that the queen had grace, he came less.

Li Chengjun was not an outsider, so the Queen invited her in.

"Is the queen ready to rest?" After Li Chengjun came in, he saluted and asked, "don't I disturb the queen?"

The empress said, "I'm going to rest, but I'm sure I can't sleep. You're just in time. Have a chat with the palace."

Li Chengjun sat aside, looked up and down at the queen, and said, "I really want to come in and chat with the queen, as long as she doesn't dislike it."

"How? Although the palace is now the queen, our feelings will not change. We still talk about what we want as a child."

Li Chengjun suddenly became a little depressed.

"What's the matter with you? Why do you keep your face?" The queen wondered, "haven't you always been known as a woman man? You said you can stand the thunder and lightning. Did your uncle urge you to marry again?"

Li Chengjun shook his head: "it's no use urging him. Now I want to marry, but the people I want to marry don't like me very much, so I'm worried about it."

"You have a man you like? Who is it?" Asked the queen curiously.

Li Chengjun said, "Xiao Baoshan!"

"Xiao... Xiao Hou ye?" The queen also looked surprised: "but he has a wife and children. If you want to marry him, don't you want to be a concubine?"

"I wish I could be a concubine," said Li Chengjun angrily, "but now even if I were a concubine, people ignored me. I just met him occasionally in the small garden and asked him some questions about military skills. He didn't seem very patient and perfunctory in a few words."

"Poof..." the queen smiled.

"What are you laughing at?"

"I'm laughing. Why do you discuss the art of war with others? You haven't been on the battlefield yourself. If you want to make friends with him, you should choose some people like to say."

"He is the God of war. What does the God of war discuss when he doesn't discuss the art of war?"

"You all know that people are God fighting, experienced in many battles and rich in natural experience. If you have not fought a war, you read several military books and dare to go to people to discuss such a problem? It's like asking people how much salt to put in a dish of green vegetables in front of a chef. Can people take care of you?"

"Then what should I talk to him about?" Asked Li Chengjun.

The queen thought, "I don't understand. In our back palace, if you want to get the emperor's favor, you have to show real skills, such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, singing and dancing. The emperor likes to see these. Marquis Xiao doesn't know what he likes. You have to think about it carefully."

Li Chengjun said, "I'm too lazy to think about it. I just want to ask you something when I enter the palace."

"What's up?" The queen smiled and said, "don't you want me to ask the emperor for you to marry you directly?"

Li Chengjun's eyes lit up: "you are really smart. You can guess my mind at once."

"That's not good," said the queen. "I heard that Mrs. Xiao Hou and the emperor were good friends. When the Emperor didn't ascend the throne, they lived together in Tianshan tribe for a period of time. I'm afraid the emperor can't do such a thing."

"What's the matter? Just be a flat wife or take a concubine. Does Lord Xiao really marry only one wife all his life and don't take a concubine? I don't believe any man will do this. If Lord Xiao wants to take a concubine, just ask me directly. I don't mind being a concubine."

The queen still shook her head: "this... I'm afraid it's a little difficult. Although the palace has always been in the back palace, I've heard something about the previous dynasty. Lord Xiao and his wife are childhood sweethearts. They have been married in the countryside, and their feelings have always been very good."

Li Chengjun shook the Queen's leg and coquettishly said, "just tell the emperor whether it doesn't matter. Just do me a favor."

After thinking for a while, the queen said, "OK, the palace will open a mouth for you. As for whether it will succeed or not, the palace is really not sure."

"Just give me a hand if you want." Li Chengjun had a smile on his face.

"Does my uncle know about it?" The queen asked again.

"Of course I know. He can't control me. I'll marry whoever I want."

"You are always so capricious."

"It's not the first day you met me."

……

It was not until the evening that Li Chengru went to the Queen's bedroom.

After all, today is her canonization ceremony, so he should stay in her palace in the evening and stay with her one more day every month in the future.

After the two exchanged greetings for a while, the queen stopped talking.

Li Chengru could see that the queen had something to say, so he said, "what does the queen want to say?"

"..." the queen was even more nervous. She was afraid that Li Chengru would be unhappy if she said it.

After all, today is the Queen's canonization ceremony, so Li Chengru is still very gentle to her. He hugged her and said, "if you have anything to say, I'm listening."

The queen was relieved and said, "well, the little daughter of Uncle five is the Lord of Chengjun county. She came to me today and said she wanted to marry and..."

As soon as Li Chengru heard that it was Li Chengjun, he smiled and said, "why does she want to get married? Doesn't she think none of the men in the capital match her?"

The queen shook her head and said, "she has found the right one now. It is said that uncle five agrees, that is... Oh, she said, it's best to be a flat wife. If she can't be a flat wife, it's also OK to be a concubine."

"Who is it?" Li Chengru still asked with great interest.

"Xiao... Xiao Baoshan." The queen said a little guilty.

"Xiao Baoshan?" After hearing this, Li Chengru frowned, obviously a little unhappy.

"I'm afraid Xiao Baoshan can't. He said he didn't want to take a concubine, and his wife is a close friend of mine. I can't do anything sorry for her!"

After listening to the queen, she was a little chatty, and her face was not very good.

If she had known it, she would have known the consequences.

Li Chengru looked at the Queen's red face and seemed ashamed. He comforted her and said, "no problem. Since Li Chengjun asked you to mention it, you will complete her instructions. Next time she comes back, you will tell her that I don't agree. If she wants to marry Xiao's house, whether she is a flat wife or a concubine depends on her own skills. I don't care about these things."

With the guidance of Li Chengru, the queen understood that her face soon turned cloudy to sunny and tooted her mouth like a little girl.

"The concubine waited on the emperor to go to bed."
