Li Baolu was a little dazed, and said blankly: "My master came with me, he is waiting for me in the front hall."

The queen frowned, Bai Yitang is from the Jianghu, so naturally he can't use this matter to plot against his apprentice. She glanced around the palace and leaned on the back of the chair. The maid at the side stepped forward and whispered: "Your Majesty, it's time for you to take your medicine."

The queen waved her hand and said, "I'm already in good health, taking those medicines is useless."

"Your Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have to intervene every day. If you know that the empress does not take medicine, the servants should be punished. I ask the empress to take pity on the servants." The maid looked at the queen pitifully.

Seeing this, the wives below stood up one after another and said, "Please take care of yourself, Madam."

The queen said helplessly: "Forget it, serve it up."

The maid got up immediately, and while ordering people to bring the medicine, she asked the women to go to the side hall to rest for a while, and then summoned after the queen had finished taking the medicine and changed her clothes.

Seeing the confused Li Baolu turning around to go with the wives, the queen twitched the corners of her mouth and said, "Chunxi, come here, the imperial dining room has changed the recipe of the chestnut cake, come and taste if the taste has improved .”

The wives came out in a single file, and the grand maid served the medicine bowl, and after the queen drank it all, she served tea to rinse her mouth, and waited for her to swallow the candied fruit before leading the people to leave. Only the queen and the queen were left in the main hall. Li Baolu is gone.

When the queen turned her head to look at her, she was holding a piece of chestnut cake and gnawing on it.

Queen: "..."

Li Baolu ate the cakes in her hands, wiped her hands with a handkerchief, and sat up straight and explained: "Mother, no one instigated or encouraged me to do this. This is my own idea, and even Brother Jingyun doesn't know."

The queen raised her eyebrows, she didn't expect that in such a short period of time, she would figure out why she kept her. The queen pondered and asked: "Do you know how important the emperor's promise is? Some people can't get a promise from His Majesty throughout their lives, but you are willing to use up a wish just to do something that is of no great benefit to you ?”

"Your Majesty, I don't hope that my family and I will need to use these three wishes in the future, because only in Da'er will we use our wishes to come to His Majesty."

"You can also ask for a reward, or leave a way for future generations."

Li Baolu shook her head, "The future generations have their own path to follow. The more we do for them, the less promising they may be in the future. Whether it is good or bad depends entirely on their ability and luck."

"As for the reward," Li Baolu smiled, "Brother Jing Yun is extremely capable, I don't think he needs to use his wish, but I, I am under his wing, and I think my ability is not bad, so naturally I don't need it. "

Seeing her so confident, the queen couldn't help being taken aback, and smiled after a while: "You are young, but this kind of open-mindedness is something that many people don't have in a lifetime. But what is the real reason why you want to reopen the women's school?"

"Ma'am, I really want to vent my anger," she said proudly with her chin raised: "Then Mr. Huang looks down on women, so I will tell him with my strength that I am a woman who can not only let you If His Majesty reopens the women's school, it will also allow the female students in the women's school to outperform his male disciples."

The queen stared at her blankly, so she really wanted to start a girls' school because she was dissatisfied with arguing with others?

The queen felt that her thoughts were too different from those of today's children, and she didn't touch Li Baolu's point for a while.

Seeing her stunned, Li Baolu coughed lightly and said, "Of course, I also feel sorry for us women, we are all human beings, although it has become normal for men to be superior to women, but it is not like this to trample us women into the mud. If you look down on women, why do you still marry wives and have children?"

The queen glanced at her indifferently, but didn't believe her anymore. Maybe this little girl was really trying to vent her anger.

She rubbed her forehead with a bit of a headache and said: "You have to think about it, if you really see His Majesty, you will never regret it."

"Don't worry, ma'am, I will never go back on my word!"

"Being embarrassed by the courtiers and not going back on your word?"

Li Baolu stared, "They dare! My uncle is the elder of the pavilion, and my husband is the prince's teacher. Who dares to make things difficult for me?"

The queen immediately stopped worrying when she saw her like this. She was so fierce, even without Qin Xinfang and Gu Jingyun, she probably wouldn't be able to suffer. She is not an official courtier, and those courtiers can't make things difficult for her. He sarcastically scolded a few words in the booklet, but when he really scolded, it was not certain who would win or lose.

Not to mention Qin Xinfang's and Gu Jingyun's fighting strength, but Li Baolu's current strength, no one can quarrel with her.

The queen raised her voice to call the maid in, and said: "The palace is tired today, send the old lady out of the palace."

"Yes." The maid bowed and stepped back to invite the wives who were waiting in the side hall out of the palace, while the empress changed her clothes and took Li Baolu to see the emperor.

It was almost noon, and the emperor had just finished dealing with the matter at hand before he wanted to have lunch. When he heard that the queen asked to see him, he was slightly surprised.

The queen never interfered with the affairs of the previous court, and divided the harem and the former court very quickly. Even if she had something to ask for, she would send someone to invite her, and she almost never came in person.

Unless what she wants to say is related to the court.

The emperor thought for a while and asked her to come in. When he saw Li Baolu obediently following her in, he couldn't help but smile, "Chunxi? Why do you have time to come into the palace today? He's here to pick up Qinghe? He's already out." The palace is back."

"Your Majesty, Chunxi is here to exchange her wish, Qinghe doesn't know she is in the palace yet."

The emperor was slightly startled, sat up straight and looked at Li Baolu with a smile, and asked, "What do you want? Tell me what you want."

Li Baolu bowed her hands and said: "Your Majesty, I will exchange a wish for you to reopen the female school."

The emperor was taken aback and looked at the queen, "What did she say?"

The queen smiled, and went up to the emperor's ear and told the cause and effect. The emperor couldn't laugh or cry, "Just because you quarreled with a gentleman from the academy?"

Li Baolu looked at him sullenly.

The emperor couldn't help laughing, shook his head after a long time and said: "Chunxi, the wish is important, you might as well go back and ask and make a decision."

Li Baolu shook her head, "Your Majesty, I can make the decision on this matter. This promise was originally given to me by you."

The emperor glanced at Director Su, then looked at Li Baolu and said with a smile: "I know, but I'm hungry now, and it's noon again, no matter how important it is to eat, why don't we go have lunch first, and eat enough How about we talk about it?"

"I heard that your master accompanied you into the palace? He didn't even have lunch, so call him here and let him try the imperial meal. He has been to many places. Let's see how the imperial meal compares to the meals outside. "

Li Baolu swallowed the words that came to her lips.

Satisfied, the emperor turned his head and said to the eunuch at the side: "Go and invite Hero Bai."

The emperor took the empress and Li Baolu to the side hall for dinner, and Director Su, who had always served the emperor personally, retreated quietly after receiving the emperor's wink, and found the imperial guards, "Hurry up and go to Lingsheng Street, General Gu, General Gu!" Come here, just say that Mrs. Gu is in the palace, let him enter the palace quickly."

"yes!"

Li Baolu didn't know that the emperor was going to rescue the soldiers. She was sitting on a chair and waiting for her master to come. Of course, the most important thing was to wait for the food to be served in the imperial dining room.

The emperor's dishes also have a fixed number and quantity. The new emperor is still in the filial piety period, and he is frugal, so he personally only has five dishes, two soups and two cold dishes for lunch. Personally, the Imperial Dining Room was also alert, and arranged the queen's meals here, and adding three more dishes was enough.

Li Baolu hasn't eaten it yet, but she knows it's delicious just by smelling it.

Bai Yitang loves to eat more than she does, he is still a bit cautious when he wants to sit at the same table with the empress, and when the dishes are served, he immediately forgets his uneasiness, it's not as big as eating.

The emperor has always been weak, especially in the past six months because of the busy state affairs, he has become thinner, and it is not bad if he can eat half a bowl of rice every meal. But today, seeing that the master and apprentice on the opposite side had a good meal, his appetite improved a lot, and he actually added some more to the rice in the bowl after eating. President Su, who was so happy to come back to serve, couldn't help but look at Li Baolu and Bai Yitang.

If these two people can come to the palace to have dinner with the emperor every day...

The queen also noticed the emperor's good appetite, smiled slightly, and said to Li Baolu who was eating happily: "Eat more if you like it, and come to the palace to eat with me when you have time. There are also delicious meals in the palace." There are many, and I will ask someone to make them for you to taste one by one."

Are all the queens in the world that good?

Or just this one without a semicolon? Li Baolu looked at the queen staringly, thinking she was really kind.

Gu Jingyun stepped into the side hall amidst her emotion.

Hearing footsteps, everyone looked over and saw Gu Jingyun standing at the door. The smile on the emperor's face deepened, and he nodded slightly, "Qinghe is here, can we have dinner?"

Gu Jingyun said with a slight smile: "It's already been used, thank you Your Majesty."

"Then you husband and wife can have a good chat, and the queen and I will go to digest food first." After saying that, he pulled the queen away.

Li Baolu was also very happy to see Gu Jingyun, smiled and waved to him: "Are you full, do you want to eat more, the imperial meal is much more delicious than our family's meal."

Gu Jingyun stepped forward and scratched her nose, and said: "You want to eat all you want, I heard people said that you quarreled with others and ran into the palace to ask His Majesty to support you?"

Li Baolu was stunned, "Who did you listen to, this rumor spread too fast."

"Your Majesty asked the imperial guards to declare me into the palace, saying that you were in the palace, so I guessed that you were the cause of trouble, so I naturally had to ask for some information in advance." He looked at Bai Yitang, who was still working hard, and said, " Master, why did you follow into the palace?"

Bai Yitang thought for a while and said, "Your wife dragged me in."

Gu Jingyun nodded, no longer asked carefully, but looked at Li Baolu, "Have you decided to use up this first wish?"

Li Baolu nodded seriously.

Gu Jingyun nodded slightly, "That's fine, since the women's school is going to be reopened, then Weizhen can be sent to the academy, and you can naturally go to the academy to teach, so that you don't have to do nothing every day and run out to quarrel with others."

Li Baolu opened her mouth wide, "What, what? Going to teach in an academy?"

Gu Jingyun did not explain, but got up and glanced at the meals on the table and said: "Don't eat too much, so as not to hurt your stomach, I will talk to His Majesty."
