Chapter 254: Joy as Agarwood Incense
With a pain in his heart, he stretched out his fingers to smooth the lines between his eyebrows, and said with a forced smile: "It's nothing, I feel weird tired to let the crown princess have such a seizure as soon as I return to the palace." ”
Sheng Yao was silent, and stretched out his arms to hug me in his arms.
I whispered, "Ah Yao, why is it so difficult? I just want to be with you, watch the flowers bloom and the years are quiet." But now, it seems that everyone is tired and injured. ”
He didn't say anything, and subconsciously tightened my circle.
At this time, it was approaching dusk, and the light in the hall dimmed.
The light smoke in the Boshan furnace on the desk in front of the window was swirling, and the smoke was as soft as a boneless and firmly entangled by the immovable Boshan furnace.
The smell of agarwood incense is cool and sweet, and my heart gradually calms down.
couldn't help but chuckle and said: "Huan is Shenshui incense, and Nong is Fushan furnace." ”
Yes, it's my heart, so why don't you be tired.
Sheng Yao lowered his head and put it next to my ear: "What you say, it's what it is." ”
I straightened up, glanced up at him, stretched my back against his warm chest, and smiled slightly.
On the second day, when Kou'er brought Qiuhe and Fengnian to pick me up in Yude Palace, I waited outside the door for half an hour, and I didn't get up.
When Cuinong came in to serve and freshen up, he couldn't help but make a few jokes: "It's a shame that His Royal Highness is busy with state affairs, so he can't help but go to His Majesty's side." If not, I'm afraid that Chloe and the others will have to wait for this time. ”
I glanced at her, and I couldn't help but blush.
When a few people surrounded me and returned to the Huiyin Palace, a few of them came forward to salute again.
The master and servant met again after the war, and they couldn't help but sigh.
I thought of Yinghong, and I couldn't help but cry and sighed: "This time the city is broken, if Yinghong can come back safely, Huiyin Hall will have no regrets." ”
Kou Er choked up and said, "Her father Jin'an is in charge, and now he is still in charge of the property outside His Royal Highness the Prince. When the servants returned to the city with the thirteen commanders, they went to find Yinghong's remains and handed them over to her family for burial. ”
The shadow of guilt that had been circling in his heart for a long time gradually expanded: the Xie family rebelled with the abolished prince, although it was because of loyalty to the old master. But if Changruo stubbornly thinks that the hatred of taking his wife, the Xie family and Shengyao are incompatible, and they can't get rid of themselves in the end.
At present, in the midst of the battlefield in which smoke is everywhere and the soldiers are in chaos, how many sons and daughters in the army have shed their blood? Among the people who have suffered from the pond fish, how many of them have lost their lives?
The demon concubine misled the country!
Am I really like that?
The Wu brothers and sisters with ulterior motives make such accusations, and I naturally won't admit it. But if you ask yourself, I can't pass the threshold of my conscience.
Since he was a child, he has seen his father behave in the world, and he has acted with benevolence, righteousness, and justice.
As his daughter, I have indirectly affected so many innocent people.
There was a little chaos in my heart.
When she looked up, she saw that her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and she wiped her tears with a handkerchief. "Now around me, Chifu and Zhan Lu are either married, or have become the female history around His Highness. You are also the great maid of the Huiyin Palace, it's time to stand up. It's not okay to be so casual, and you still need to teach them. ”
Chloe sobbed and held back her tears.
"You went to get the right cards out of the palace, and went to the house of the Jin'an steward on my behalf. and two hundred taels of silver, and sent them together. Yinghong followed me, but I couldn't keep her safe, and I was really sad in my heart. ”
Kou Er answered, and asked again: "Ruyi said that she and I went to look for you separately when I was in Diexiu Mountain, have you ever met her?" Cui Nong looked at my suddenly depressed face, and said to Kou'er: "You are confused. If you do, you'll come back with you. ”
Chloe said worriedly: "I don't know where she has been, what is going on now." ”
I said lightly: "I guess I'm lost." She has always been a caring person, and she will naturally be wishful in the future. ”
Knowing my displeasure, Chloe bowed and stepped back.
I instructed Cuinong: "Take Qiuhe and go with me to the Queen's Palace." ”
Walking to the door, he turned around and went to the mirror platform to look at his makeup, and felt that it was okay, so he took Cuinong and Qiuhe out of the palace.
Cui Nong glanced at the side cautiously and whispered, "Is Liangyuan worried?"
I nodded my head: "Naturally, I'm worried." ”
If it is the people in the East Palace with ill intentions, even if it is the crown princess, I can argue with reason, and then use some methods to make them keep their mouths shut. But the queen is not only the mother of the royal family, the master of the world and the harem, but also the mother of Shengyao. The method of dealing with the crown princess should not be used on the queen.
In the Yongning Palace, I greeted the queen with anxiety. The queen looked as gentle and amiable as ever, and gave her a seat as usual. It's as if I've only been here yesterday, as if I've never been out for more than ten days.
I thanked the queen and sat down in my chair. I didn't know how to explain it for a while.
There are palace people who serve tea. The queen took it casually and wiped her lips. He looked up at me and asked, "Have you ever been to the Empress Dowager's palace?"
I leaned forward slightly and replied, "Not yet." The daughter-in-law thought that after coming to greet the queen mother first, she went to the queen mother's palace. ”
The queen looked at me a few times and sighed softly, "That's it." I'll walk with you for a while. Before Yao'er went to His Majesty's place early in the morning, Baba came to my place. said that when you returned to the palace this time, some people with ulterior motives had many unfavorable rumors about you, but I was afraid that you would be criticized. I must protect you. ”
Hearing this, I only felt that the warm currents of all my limbs and bones were quietly flowing.
got up and bowed slowly: "With such love from the Queen Mother and Her Royal Highness, Xiaoguan is terrified." Xiaoguan thanked his mother and took care of it. ”
The queen looked at her for a moment, and then smiled again: "You don't have to say anything to be afraid. If you hadn't been cool-headed that day and advocated going to Diexiu Mountain, most of the people in the harem might not have been able to come back with all their tails. I'm afraid that they were captured by the rebels on the way to Qizhou with the crown princess. Later, I talked about this matter with Your Majesty, and Your Majesty also said that it was a good move to guard Diexiu Mountain and wait for help. ”
I smiled and lowered my head: "Queen Mother, if you really want to talk about it, fortunately, you took the opportunity to lead us to Diexiu Mountain." ”
The queen smiled. got up and called Ye Shangyi, "Let's go, the Queen Mother and her old man should have already walked back to the palace from the garden, and it is a good time to say hello." ”
I should have been the head of the chin, and went to Ci'an Palace with the queen.
Who knew that the palace people had been in for a long time, and they didn't see the queen mother calling in.
Standing at the foot of the steps in front of the hall, he doubted in his heart: If I come alone, it will be enough to be neglected like this. The queen mother has been in the top position for a long time and has a deep mind, how can she easily give the queen no face in public? There is probably some reason for this.
Sure enough, the queen frowned, and her eyes touched Ye Shangyi's slightly. Ye Shangyi turned sideways and didn't know what to say, and a palace person behind her saluted and retreated.
In less than half a cup of tea, the palace man came back and whispered a few words to Ye Shangyi. Ye Shangyi stepped forward and said, "It's Concubine Shu inside." said that he came without breakfast, and he cried and cried for a long time. ”
