Chapter 34 The Queen Mother is not simple

A cold snap hits and the temperature plummets.

Those palace maids and eunuchs, all dressed in single clothes, suddenly shivered coldly.

Fu Shou also wrapped his clothes tightly in the cold, and instructed the palace maids to quickly add fire to the charcoal basin, and the temperature in the tent gradually rose a little.

It's just that the stove fire is limited after all, and Fu Shou didn't bring thick clothes with him on this trip, so soon it was so cold that his nose was red, and he rubbed his palms.

Only Su Zhe was wearing a thick leather jacket, and at this time, the temperature plummeted, and the hot sweat on his forehead was dry, and he felt comfortable.

The others shivered coldly, so Su Zhe sat there idlely, tasting the imperial wine, so leisurely.

After a little warmer, Fu Shou finally noticed Su Zhe again, and his eyes couldn't help but glow with deep surprise.

"It's really changed, could it be that Su Qing predicted in advance that it would change today?" Fu Shou asked tremblingly.

Su Zhe said lightly: "The minister just watched the sky at night last night, and saw that there was a possibility of a cold snap hitting and the temperature plummeted today, but I didn't expect the minister to guess correctly." ”

"Su Qing actually has the ability to know the heavens and predict the warmth and coldness of the wind and snow?" Fu Shou's expression was even more surprised.

"The minister is just a rough fur, and the carving insect skills make the mother laugh." Of course, Su Zhe didn't tell the truth, so he had to humbly laugh at himself.

Fu Shou sighed and exclaimed: "Penetrate the heavens and predict the wind and rain, this is the ability that can only be possessed by the talents of the heavens and latitudes, how can it be said that it is a small skill of carving insects, Su Qing is too modest." ”

"Niangniang praised it falsely, the minister is just an unknown person from a poor family, how can he have any talent." Su Zheji is humble.

Fu Shou's eyes became more and more surprised, staring at Su Zhe with a pair of bright eyes, as if he wanted to re-examine the little person from Jingzhou in front of him.

Suddenly, a hint of meaningful light flashed in Fu Shou's eyes, as if he suddenly realized something.

At that moment, she stood up and said with a slight smile: "Your Majesty originally prepared a return gift for Uncle Jingsheng, and I want to hand it over to you personally, now Your Majesty is going hunting with the Taishi, I don't know when I will be able to come back, Su Qing will go to the inner tent with the palace, and the palace will give you the gift for Your Majesty." ”

With that, Fu Shou turned around and walked into the inner tent.

Su Zhe hesitated for a moment, but still stood up, followed Fu Shou, and stepped into the inner tent.

The palace maid and the eunuch were all left outside, and Su Zhe guessed that this Han queen must have something secret to say to herself, and she didn't want to be recruited.

Stepping into the inner tent, Fu Shou knelt down and motioned for her to sit opposite him.

"How dare the minister sit opposite the mother." Su Zhe was busy flattered and excused himself.

Fu Shou smiled lightly and said with a kind face: "There are no outsiders here, Su Qing doesn't have to be formal, sit down." ”

Su Zhe couldn't refuse, so he had to be respectful and obedient, and sat down on his knees, and the two were only separated by a few cases.

At such a close distance, Su Zhe could finally see Fu Shou's face clearly.

It is indeed a dignified and beautiful face, and the eyebrows exude a kind of motherly and luxurious temperament, which makes people can't help but have a sense of wanting respect.

It's just that, perhaps because the age is still young after all, there is still a bit of immaturity in the dignified.

However, Fu Shou is obviously very good at makeup, and those little immaturity are covered up by her slight fat powder, if it is not for close observation, it is really difficult to see.

"At a young age, she has to take on the heavy responsibility of the queen, and she is still the queen of a puppet emperor, and it is not easy for her......"

Su Zhe remained silent, and secretly sighed in his heart.

At this time, Fu Shou's expression suddenly became solemn, and he said: "Su Qing, since you are the tribute envoy sent by Emperor Jingsheng, you must be his confidant, this palace wants to ask you, Liu Jingsheng, is he loyal to the Son of Heaven or Dong Zhuo?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Su Zhe suddenly became alert, and immediately realized that the queen would not call him here alone, and it would never be as simple as giving him a gift.

Based on her words alone, it shows that she wants to test Liu Biao's political attitude.

Su Zhe's thoughts turned, and he immediately said: "Although my lord Liu Jingzhou Mu was appointed by Taishi Dong, my lord is a member of the Han clan, so he is naturally loyal to the Son of Heaven. ”

Fu Shou continued to ask: "Since Emperor Jingsheng is loyal to the Son of Heaven, if there is a change in Chang'an one day, will he help the Son of Heaven?" ”

Chang'an has changed!

Hearing these four words, Su Zhe's heart changed slightly, and he couldn't help but think of the Chang'an Incident in history, when Wang Yunce opposed Lu Bu and killed Dong Zhuo.

Think about the history after that, Liu Xie had a secret edict, and his confidant Dong Cheng, a loyal minister, had launched a mutiny several times, knowing that this Son of Heaven was not a son of heaven who kept to himself, and Wang Yun's mutiny to kill Dong Zhuo could never have nothing to do with Liu Xie.

And Fu Shou suddenly mentioned that "there are changes in Chang'an", which couldn't help but make Su Zhe guess that she and his seemingly weak son of heaven were already secretly talking to Wang Yunzhi and others, preparing to plan a mutiny against Dong Zhuo, and had foreseen "changes in Chang'an" in the future.

"The 'Chang'an has changed' that Niangniang refers to, I don't know what it means, forgive the ministers for being foolish, and I hope that Niangniang will make it clear." Su Zhe didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.

Fu Shouxiu's eyebrows condensed slightly, a little displeased, and said: "Su Qing is a humble family, but he can get the weight of Emperor Jingsheng's uncle, he must have extraordinary talents, with Su Qing's cleverness, do you still use this palace to speak?" ”

Su Zhe paused, but said with a faint smile: "Niangniang really trusts the minister, she dares to ask the minister such a thing, Niangniang should have heard of it, the minister was in the Taishi's mansion the day before yesterday, and he made a warning to help Dong Taishi avoid Wu Fu's assassination, and Dong Taishi also rewarded the minister for this, Niangniang is not afraid that the minister will go to tell Dong Taishi and ask for credit?" ”

The inner tent immediately fell silent.

In Fu Shou's eyes, a cold glint suddenly flashed, and it shot at him coldly.

But he still looked calm, just calmly looking at her fierce gaze, silent.

This kind of staring lasted for ten seconds, and the whole tent seemed to freeze.

Then, the cold light in Fu Shou's eyes converged, and he smiled confidently: "This palace dares to ask like this, it is to bet on Su Qing, you are not that kind of person, I don't know if this palace is right." ”

This is a queen of unusual guts......

Su Zhe had a new evaluation of Fu Shou in front of him, and praised with a smile: "Niangniang has a good eye." ”

When he said this, it was tantamount to promising her that he would not tell Dong Zhuo.

Fu Shou did not show a relieved look, a trace of cunning flashed across his face, and said: "Actually, even if Su Qing goes to tell Dong Zhuo, this palace has nothing to be afraid of, and of course this palace will not admit it, and this palace will also tell Dong Zhuo, you are on the order of Liu Jingsheng, you want to join forces with the Son of Heaven, and conspire with Dong Zhuo inside and outside, when the time comes, Su Qing can guess, who will he believe?" ”

In an instant, Su Zhe felt a chill behind him, as if someone had blown a breath of cold air, and his heart shivered.

"This Queen Fu is not only timid, but also very powerful, well, this is not an easy woman to deal with......"

Su Zhe smiled and laughed at himself: "So, the minister has neither the heart nor the guts." ”

Fu Shou raised slightly, and the corners of his mouth raised a trace of satisfaction, and Fang said: "In this case, Su Qing can answer the question of this palace now." ”

"Ahh

Su Zhe let out a long sigh, but he was buying time, thinking about how to answer Fu Shou the safest.

He keenly smelled a hint of favorability, and felt that he seemed to be able to obtain unexpected benefits from Fu Shou's unexpected secret conversation.

After all, Fu Shou represents the Son of Heaven, although the Son of Heaven is a puppet, but in the end he is still the nominal emperor, and in the eyes of the world, he still has considerable appeal.

Odd goods can live!

Under the flying thoughts, these four words suddenly burst out of Su Zhe's mind, and as soon as his mind turned, a glimmer of light quietly flashed in his eyes.

At that moment, he said in a regretful tone: "Since Niangniang believes in me, then I will tell the truth, although my family Liu Jingzhou is a relative of the Han family, and he has always respected the Son of Heaven, but it is only respectful, and it is no problem for him to offer tribute, but if the Son of Heaven wants to get his substantial support, I am afraid it is unlikely." ”

"Uncle Jingsheng sits in Jingzhou, his soldiers are full of food, he can be one of the best princes in Guandong, his territory is very close to Guanzhong, coupled with his identity as a clan of the Han family, it can be said that he is a combination of time, place and people, doesn't he want to replace Dong Zhuo?"

Fu Shou's tone became excited, and he did not hesitate to speak more thoroughly, just to invite Liu Biao to lead the Jingzhou army north into the Guanzhong and help her get rid of Dong Zhuo.

Su Zhe sighed lightly again, and said with a wry smile: "What Niangniang said, my family Liu Jingzhou must also be very clear, but unfortunately Niangniang doesn't know, my family's ambition in Jingzhou is just to protect the territory and the people, and be a prince." ”

Silent.

Fu Shou fell silent again, and his disappointed expression, as if he had heartfelt words, was suppressed back by Su Zhe's words.

After a while, Fu Shoucai asked unwillingly: "Could it be that Liu Jingsheng is really so short-sighted." ”

"After all, people are different, some people are ambitious, some people are rich, please understand." Su Zhe can be regarded as defending Liu Biao, after all, he is still nominally Liu Biao's subordinate.

"Alasβ€”" Fu Shou finally let out a helpless sigh, indicating that she had also given up hope of wooing Liu Biao.

At this time, the cold wind outside the tent was even stronger, and the slightest cold wind penetrated into the tent everywhere, and the temperature dropped even more violently than before.

Fu Shou was in a state of excitement, and he didn't feel much yet, but after his mood calmed down, he shivered coldly and sneezed a few times in a row.

Seeing this, Su Zhe didn't think much about it, so he got up and stepped forward, took off his thick leather jacket very gentlemanly, and gently draped it on Fu Shou's shoulders.

As a courtier, having such a close contact with the queen, and also putting on clothes for the queen with his own hands, although this act is concerned, it is obviously suspected of being out of courtesy.

Fu Shou turned his head in surprise, his instinctive hand stretched out to his shoulder, wanting to refuse, but he didn't want to, and his hand happened to touch Su Zhe's hand.

At that moment, Fu Shoujiao's body couldn't help but tremble, and his already frozen red face suddenly turned a little red.
