Chapter 417 Chapter 413: What a beautiful thought

 The news that the Queen Mother was not going to go for summer vacation this year was quickly conveyed to Concubine Shu. Concubine Shu couldn't believe her ears.

 If the Queen Mother doesn’t go, how can she go?

Concubine Shu was so angry that she smashed everything on the floor in the palace, and then went to Song Yunzhao angrily.

"The Queen Mother will stay in the palace if she doesn't go to escape the summer heat?" Song Yunzhao was also shocked.

"Yes, don't you think it's strange?" Concubine Shu's anger grew stronger and stronger. "This summer is hard to endure. If I stay in the palace, I'm afraid my body won't be able to bear it. If the Queen Mother becomes unwell by then, I'm afraid it will be our fault."

Song Yunzhao frowned and thought deeply. She thought that the Queen Mother might go to Jincui Garden, but she did not expect that the Queen Mother would not even leave the palace and would stay in the palace to escape the summer heat.

Since the Queen Mother is spending the summer in the palace, she and her son cannot go to Jincui Garden to relax, which makes her feel a little bad.

 At this rare moment, she and Concubine Shu empathized.

Both of them looked ugly. Concubine Shu looked at Song Yunzhao and said, "If you think of a way to stay in the palace, life will be difficult."

Song Yunzhao shook his head, "What can I do?"

How could he put a knife on the Queen Mother's neck and force her to go?

　　They both sighed.

"What is this?" Concubine Shu said with a depressed look on her face, "I was thinking of having a good time when I went to the palace this year, and asked someone to get a boat to spend the night on the lake."

Song Yunzhao looked at Concubine Shu and thought so beautifully.

"Why don't you think the Queen Mother doesn't want to go to escape the summer heat?" Concubine Shu couldn't understand this. She went there last year, but she can't go this year?

 She didn’t believe it for no reason.

 It means that you are not feeling well and are not suitable for long journeys.

 The Queen Mother's hospital asked for a Ping'an pulse every three days, but did not say that the Queen Mother was unwell.

Song Yunzhao shook his head slightly, "I am so clueless that I can't guess why."

That's what he said, but Song Yunzhao felt that it might be for the emperor's sake that he asked Concubine Shu to inquire. The Queen Mother must have thought that the emperor would not be the same as last year. If the emperor did not go to the palace, An Shutong would not have a chance to visit him for several months. Seeing the holy face, wanting to be favored is just a dream.

Then we can only stay.

Since the Queen Mother remains in the palace, the Emperor cannot leave her to escape the summer heat.

I have to say that the Queen Mother's trick is indeed effective.

 However, you cannot say this to Concubine Shu. After all, it is she, Song Yunzhao, who occupies the emperor's favor.

Concubine Shu told Yun Zhao and asked Yun Zhao to give a reply to the emperor. She returned to Cuiwei Palace with a feeling of depression. She couldn't go to escape the summer heat. Thinking about the harsh summer, she didn't look happy at all. .

If we really don’t go to escape the heat, I’m afraid we’ll use a lot more ice this year, and I don’t know if the amount in the palace will be enough.

Concubine Shu still had to ask about these things, which gave her an even bigger headache.

Song Yunzhao was also a little bored. The Queen Mother didn't go to escape the summer heat, and she couldn't go to Jincui Garden. Thinking about how hard it was to be in the palace in summer, she felt bored and simply went out for a walk.

When Feng Zhi was not around, Yun Zhao took Xiangxue and Shi Zhu out of the Yaohua Palace and walked leisurely on the palace road. When the palace guests saw her from a distance, they bowed their knees and bowed to avoid her.

Yun Zhao went to the Imperial Garden. The sun moved westward, and the sunlight falling on his body was not so hot anymore. With the breeze falling on his body, he was still a little comfortable.

After walking a few steps, I saw someone walking this way from a distance. When I got closer, I realized it was An Fangyi. An Fangyi was stunned when she saw Song Yunzhao. Then she came back to her senses and stepped forward to greet her, "I have seen Concubine Ming."

 An Fangyi entered the palace earlier than Song Yunzhao, but now he has to bend down to her, and the feeling in his heart is hard to describe.

Not to mention that she and Concubine Ming also had troubles because of Han Jinyi's incident.

"There's no need to be polite to An Fangyi, get up." Song Yunzhao had a very average impression of An Fangyi. She always couldn't figure out the relationship between this person and Qin Xiyue. Although they didn't have any contact, the two of them sometimes got together. , said they had some contact, but they rarely visited each other on weekdays.

But An Fangyi and Qin Xiyue are indeed connected in the book, and coupled with what happened to Han Jinyi last time, it is rare for her to have such complicated thoughts about a person.

 “Thank you, empress.” An Fangyi stood up and said.

Song Yunzhao looked at her carefully. A golden bun with emerald silk in her bun made An Fangyi's face glow. A pair of jade gourds the size of thumb caps hung on her ears, adding a touch of softness. meaning. Wearing a light green palace dress on her body, it looked particularly beautiful against the sunset.

There is indeed no ugly person in this palace, everyone is beautiful.

“It’s rare to see Concubine Ming out strolling in the garden. The weather is nice today, so it’s good to go out for a walk.”

Song Yunzhao was a little surprised when he heard this. An Fangyi's temperament is much more easy-going than before. This person's temperament is not easy to bend.

　　Back when she entered the palace, she had a tough fight with the third concubine, but she was not seen lowering her head.

“What An Fangyi said is that if the weather is nice, I just go out for a walk.” Song Yunzhao responded, “Where are An Fangyi going?”

"I also saw that the weather was good, so I came out to take a breath, but I didn't expect to meet the empress."

 “This is a coincidence.”

Song Yunzhao didn't want to make excuses with An Fangyi, and was about to take the first step when he heard An Fangyi say: "I heard that the Queen Mother is unwell and will not go to the palace to escape the summer heat this year. Do you dare to ask the Queen Mother if this is true?"

Song Yunzhao raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a slight surprise on his face: "Where did you get the news? I haven't heard about it yet."

Concubine Shu had just handed her the letter. Logically speaking, other people in the harem should not know about it yet, but An Fangyi had already gotten the news first.

"It was a coincidence that someone who was with me went to the Clothes Bureau to pick up clothes and happened to meet someone from the Shouci Palace, so we got a few words." An Fangyi said, "The Queen Mother is old and unwell. It makes my concubines and others worried."

 An Fangyi is worried about the Queen Mother?

This is really a joke. She has never gone to the Queen Mother to perform filial piety on weekdays, but now she is worried.

Song Yunzhao said calmly: "An Fangyi has such filial piety. The Queen Mother will definitely be very happy when she knows about it."

An Fangyi glanced at Concubine Ming, and then said: "I would like to take advantage of your Majesty's good words not to disturb your purity. I will retire."

An Fangyi bowed and left. Looking at her back, Yun Zhao slowly withdrew his gaze.

 What does An Fangyi mean by this?

 It is impossible to say such words casually without any reason.

 Is there really something wrong with the Queen Mother's body?

However, there was nothing unusual about the medical records in the Taiyuan Hospital. Song Yunzhao felt a little wary. He casually waved Shi Zhu over and lowered his voice and told her, "Go and find out who An Fangyi has been in close contact with recently."

Everything has a cause, and there are always traces of it.

Song Yunzhao had something on his mind, so he had no interest in visiting the garden, so he simply walked back. Before he could return to Yaohua Palace, he saw Feng Yi holding Feng Xi's hand walking towards her from a distance.

She was about to go up to him, but saw a man suddenly coming out of the fork in the road, blocking the emperor's way.
