Chapter Forty-Six: White Feather
After the little golden concubine left, Liu Yunxiang saw Concubine Liang sitting paralyzed on the bed, tears falling down, looking helpless.
"Concubine Liang, if you believe me, then grit your teeth and live, and I will save you from the cold palace. ”
Concubine Liang smiled bitterly: "By you?"
Liu Yunxiang raised his eyebrows: "With my little palace maid, it's not impossible." ”
Two days later, it was the winter solstice.
In the last life, she wrapped dumplings stuffed with mutton by herself, and when Yan Du came back from the barracks, the two of them ate dumplings together.
He stuffed one in one bite, and ate it obviously very fragrant, but his mouth was full of disgust: "The sheep gas is too heavy, the oil is too small, it is not fragrant at all, and the dumpling skin is too thick......"
She snorted angrily, "If you don't like it, don't eat it!"
Yan Du put the chopsticks down, and then burped.
At night, she was pressed into the quilt by him and tossed hard for half a night, and was about to fall asleep in a daze, Jiang Yuan called outside.
Yan Du hugged her, too lazy to go out, so he asked, "What's the matter?"
Remember https://m in a second.
"Master, Dongchang came to report, saying that the emperor had a nightmare, and he dreamed that a white snake bit off his neck, and the palace people of Chengtian Palace were rummaging around for this white snake. ”
Yan Du sneered coldly, "I think the white snake didn't bite off his neck, but ate his brain, let's not interfere in this matter." ”
"Yes. ”
It was nothing, but three days later, I really found a white snake in the palace, quite big, with sharp teeth. The emperor had just forgotten this dream, and now he was frightened again, not only in the palace, but also in all the states and counties of Darong to hunt the white snake.
This incident is quite big, so Liu Yunxiang still remembers.
And tonight is the winter solstice of this year.
Liu Yunxiang got up after the third watch and quietly found the matching room, not wanting to run into the evening when he came back from the toilet.
After she pressed Weiqing's hand into the brazier, the palace maids of Luohan Palace began to avoid her after seeing her ruthlessness. The same is true of the evening, probably frightened.
Liu Yunxiang nodded at her, and was about to walk out, but she followed.
"Yunxiang, where are you going?"
Liu Yunxiang hesitated slightly, "Do you dare to catch the snake?"
"Huh?"
"It looks like a thick and long snake. ”
Although Wanyi didn't know Liu Yunxiang's intention to ask this, he still nodded, "My family lives in the mountains, and there are a lot of snakes, and they will crawl into the house, so I will catch them and throw them out." ”
"Do me a favor, then. ”
"Good. ”
Liu Yunxiang took the evening, and the two of them sneaked into the back garden and walked to the southeast corner.
"How is the light on the side of Chengtian Palace. Wanyi muttered quietly.
At this point, the lights of the other palaces were turned off, but the Chengtian Palace was so bright, so it was very conspicuous.
Liu Yunxiang didn't hear it, and continued to walk forward.
There are also guards patrolling here, so you need to be cautious.
"Yunxiang, do you know that Weiqing was kicked out of the palace?"
Liu Yunxiang really didn't pay attention: "When?"
"Two days ago. ”
Liu Yunxiang guessed that it should be Yan Duan.
When I came to the southeast corner, there was a pine tree against the wall, and Yan Du mentioned it in the previous life, saying that when the palace people found it, this snake was coiled in the hole of the tree.
She stepped forward cautiously and looked behind the trunk of the pine tree, where there was indeed a hole in the tree, and when she looked closer, she couldn't help but take two steps back in fright, there was indeed a white snake.
"Do you dare to arrest?" Liu Yunxiang shuddered and asked Wanyi.
Wanyi glanced at it and said with a smile: "What's not to dare to do." ”
As she spoke, she found a wooden stick, first teased the snake out, and then grabbed the snake's head with great precision, and lifted it up at once.
Liu Yunxiang covered his mouth and almost screamed.
At that moment, she hurriedly led the evening to the cold palace, and since Jin You came that day, she asked the queen mother to replace the guards guarding the door of the cold palace with their own people.
"Yunxiang, what are we doing here?"
"See Concubine Liang. ”
Wanyi's eyes widened, "You don't want this snake to bite Concubine Liang, do you?"
"Really. ”
When she came to the house, Concubine Liang must have heard the movement, and she had already sat up at this moment, first saw Liu Yunxiang, and when she saw Wanyi following behind her, when she was suspicious, she saw the white snake in Wanyi's hand again, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly hid back.
"What are you going to do?"
Liu Yunxiang stepped forward, bent down, stared at Concubine Liang's eyes and said, "Do you want to take revenge on Jin You?"
Concubine Liang's eyes sank, "If you want to go crazy!"
Liu Yunxiang asked Wanyi to take the snake forward, and under the suspicious and frightened gaze of Concubine Liang, she said, "Stretch your neck and let this snake bite you." ”
When Concubine Liang heard this, her face turned white and she hurriedly shrank back.
"Niangniang, I won't force you, but you only have this one chance. ”
Early the next morning, the emperor and the queen came together to greet the queen mother, because today is resting, the emperor is not in the early court, it is rare to see him, so the palace concubines are here, and the three princes and the four princes also came early, Jin You took the nine princes, but only Yan Du was missing.
"I nest in the house all day, and the last dynasty fishes for three days and dries the nets for two days, and I don't know what to do!" the emperor said angrily.
The Queen Mother smiled, "He has a loose temperament, let him be fine." ”
"Everyone is like him, the world of our Qin family should be handed over!"
"You, you, he's been lazy for a few days, and you've forgotten about the battle he gave you before?"
The emperor sighed, "You can spoil him, my son is not as important as his weight in your heart." ”
The queen of heaven took the emperor's hand and patted it, "The queen mother is the only son of you!"
Hearing this, the emperor also laughed.
"But why don't I look good, but I didn't sleep well last night?" asked the Queen Mother, looking at the emperor.
The emperor nodded, "I had a dream." ”
"Bad dreams?"
The emperor's face was a little ugly again, "That's it, don't mention it." ”
The number of people in this family filled the entire hall, Liu Yunxiang stood behind the Queen Mother, felt a lustful gaze, looked up, and saw that it was the four princes.
She looked down and frowned.
The queen always paid attention to her two sons, and when she saw the four princes staring at a certain place, her eyes were motionless, and she looked over and saw that her son was staring at Liu Yunxiang, and she couldn't help but have a headache.
"Fourth, fourth!"
After shouting twice, the four princes came back to their senses.
The queen glared at him secretly, and then smiled: "Didn't you find a treasure and shout to give it to your father?"
"Huh?"
"You told me yesterday, forgot?" the queen gritted her teeth.
The fourth prince patted his head, "Oh, yes, this treasure was found with great difficulty, and it cost a lot of silver......"
"Ahem!" Seeing that he was about to say the wrong thing, the third prince next to him hurriedly reminded him.
These three princes are handsome and elegant, with bright eyes, but they seem to be clever.
The fourth prince's voice quickly changed, and he said a few words about how he bothered and labored, and then took it out of his sleeve pocket, which was small in shape and lustrous in jade...... Jade!
Jade!
As soon as this thing was taken out, the emperor's face immediately darkened, the queen almost fainted, and most of the other people present were women, so they were embarrassed not to turn their heads.
This thing was actually brought to the surface, and it was given to the emperor, and the most important thing was this, isn't it the most direct insult to the emperor's majestic and proud manhood.
"You, presumptuous!" the emperor was angry.
The fourth prince looked at it again, and was so frightened that he quickly knelt down, "No, no, I took it wrong!"
"Get out!"
"Father!"
The queen hurriedly glared at him: "Don't hurry up and get out, this palace will come back to you to settle accounts!"
