Chapter 257: Peak Loop
“…… So what does the queen want to do?" Gongsun Xi was afraid that Queen Meng would cry endlessly, so he suppressed his heart and asked in a deep voice.
And the queen noticed that he called herself, and before "Niangniang", she added the word "queen", which clearly reminded herself that the gap between the identities between the two was cold, and she opened her mouth, what she was going to say, she suddenly lost interest, and after a long time, she said astringently: "You go!"
Gongsun was stunned and looked up at her in confusion.
saw the queen hanging her head, covering her face, and only fiddling with the silk handkerchief in her hand.
"......" He hesitated for a moment, clenched his fist at her, and quietly left.
Empress Meng didn't look at the back of him leaving, only tore her favorite silk handkerchief into strands little by little, and only called into Chunlai at the end, and lightly ordered: "Call someone in to pack up your things and prepare to accompany your aunt to Shanglin Yuan." ”
At this time, there happened to be a palace maid from Xinshou Palace who came to say: "Zheng Hou has just entered the palace, and when he heard about the partial hall, he is very much in favor of the Queen Mother's move to Lin Yuan." ”
She hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Somehow, this news is also known to the West Palace. At this time, the two Shu Niangniang sent people to the Queen Mother, saying that this season is very suitable to go to Shanglin Yuan to see the flowers, and let the Queen Mother stay for a long time, and they will accompany His Majesty to go over. ”
"Why do they suddenly want to join in the fun?" Empress Meng was still immersed in the depression of Gongsun Xi leaving without saying a word, and asked absentmindedly, and then ordered Chunlai, "Hurry up, don't ask your aunt to wait in a hurry!"
At this time, Meng Guiyu, who quietly wiped away the cold sweat from the corners of his forehead, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The Shu sisters decided to go to Shanglin Yuan with the Queen Mother, and he was the one who picked it up.
The reason is similar to Empress Meng's persuasion of the Queen Mother to move the palace: the queen has only been to the side hall where Concubine Mo lives, and Concubine Mo has gone wrong, who knows what happened?
"Although the side hall of Xinshou Palace is not close to Leyi Palace and Anfu Palace, they are all within the imperial city!"
"From the time the incident happened to the present, there has been chaos inside and outside the side hall, and so far there is no explanation about the murderer!"
"In case the two mothers are disturbed here...... After all, Concubine Mo is old and decrepit, and it is okay to have a cut in her cheek by a dagger. ”
"The two mothers are beautiful and beautiful, but they just touched a hair, but they taught Your Majesty how to give it up?!"
Because Concubine Shu and Shu Zhaoyi have no children under their knees, they are particularly attentive to the emperor's favor.
They are no longer young, even if they try to retain the appearance of their youth, the confidence in their hearts is dissipating day by day.
Meng Guiyu only said that it was dangerous, but they could not think so, and when it came to disfigurement, the second concubine suddenly changed her face.
After sending him away, he didn't discuss it for long, and decided that it was better to avoid it: "What happened to Concubine Mo has something to do with Mizhen. In the early years, Huan Guanlan spent a lot of thought on the little prince who came out of the little Wen family, inside and outside the palace! After the little prince died, the Wen family was defeated, and after the debasement, whether it was for revenge, or to avoid cheapening the Gaomi King and the Meng family, eighty percent would also hand over the Wen family's management in the palace to him! At this time, Mizhen will not worry that no one will cooperate with him inside and outside!
"Of course, Mi Zhen doesn't know that we know his details at this time, and eighty percent won't do anything to us. ”
"But the so-called little prince from Concubine Meng and King Guangling before had just landed in Leyi Palace. ”
"Meng must hate us to the core. ”
"Who knows if they will take this opportunity to attack us?"
At this time, someone from the palace came to report, saying that they had heard that Empress Dowager Meng had decided to temporarily move to Shanglin Yuan to live for a few days.
When the Shu sisters heard this, they felt more and more suspicious: "The Queen Mother is the foundation of the rise of the Meng family, and the main hall of Xinshou Palace where she lives has always been like an iron bucket, and not a single fly can fly into it!"
"What happened to Concubine Mo at this time, what is going on, people outside don't know, it's okay, who of us don't know in our hearts?"
"The Queen Mother, as for being so flustered, she doesn't even dare to stay in the dormitory where she has lived for decades?"
"Bacheng wants to make things bigger, and he has a reputation for being a real murderer with good martial arts and ruthless behavior, and he will turn around and make a shady hand on us, so that he can frame the crime on Mi Zhen, right?"
Zhaoyi proposed: "Then let's go to Shanglin Yuan too! It just so happens that the spring flowers are blooming at this time, and it is easier to go over there!"
Seeing that there was no one left and right, her voice was low, "The Shanglin Garden is vast, the grass and trees are full of flowers, although there is a forbidden army stationed in it, but the rules in the army are strict, and it is not good to wander around in the garden when you are idle." When we get there, wouldn't it be more convenient for us to do something and meet someone than in the palace? After all, whether it is Leyi Palace or Anfu Palace, it is so big...... Turn around, maybe you'll bump into three or two!"
The concubine narrowed her eyes: "But it's convenient for us to go to Lin Yuan, and ...... others want to go over?"
"Feast and drink!" Zhaoyi said, "There is also a place as big as Shanglin Yuan now, it's okay to be idle, ask Your Majesty to summon some people to join in the fun, what's not okay?"
So the two sisters sent someone to Xinshou Palace to go to Shanglin Yuan with the Queen Mother.
Empress Dowager Meng was extremely disgusted with the two sisters, and she didn't want to wait for them in her heart, especially since these sisters had always bullied Queen Meng, and the Queen Mother was afraid that the queen would be wronged again.
It's just that Zheng Hou hasn't left yet, and after hearing that he waited for the palace maid of the Shu sisters to leave, he persuaded the queen mother: "It's just a trivial matter, why bother to be angry? The eldest sister is older, no better than when she was young, you still have to get by! Otherwise, there will be a trouble, Your Majesty will be devoted to those two, and you will be sad in vain." ”
The Queen Mother sighed: "What is there to be afraid of when the mourning family is old? I just think that those two cheap maids see the queen, maybe there will be some moths!"
"The queen is young, and she should suffer a little when she is young. Zheng Hou didn't have much father-daughter affection for the queen, and said disapprovingly, "I think when the eldest sister was at the queen's age, where was she so noble? Not to mention that the queen is the master of the main palace, in front of you, the sisters will at most take advantage of them in words, and the queen will ignore them?"
Empress Dowager Meng didn't like his careless attitude towards the queen, but because Emperor Xuanjing took the Shu sisters as treasures, her own mother couldn't protect the queen too much, and frowned when she heard this: "The mourning family asked people to go and talk to the queen...... Let her be mentally prepared!"
So at this time, seeing that Empress Meng didn't seem to notice the result of the Shu sisters going to Shanglin Yuan together, the queen mother sent a palace maid to report the news and reminded euphemistically: "The queen mother said that the two people in the West Palace are arrogant and unruly, and now they want to go to Shanglin Yuan with the queen mother and you, please bear more!"
These words immediately reminded the queen that she was not worried about Gongsun Xi staying alone!
Hearing this, the tears that Fang had just held back in front of Gongsun Xi came down suddenly, and choked up: "What kind of treatment is not treated? This palace only asks those two to be merciful, and give me a good time for the sake of my aunt's old age and can't help many scenes!"
Seeing this, the palace maid immediately panicked, and quickly knelt down: "Niangniang is angry!"
Think about it, the queen is not angry, but sad, and quickly changed her mouth and persuaded, "Niangniang, calm down, the queen mother only called the slave maid to remind you in case something happened, but it may not be serious that there will be any turmoil? Besides, in front of the queen mother, it is impossible for those two to be too much!"
"It's not too much, this palace is not the first day to enter the palace, how have you come these days, you people in Xinshou Palace still don't know?" Queen Meng wiped her tears and said with a sob, "Forget it, this palace doesn't want my aunt to be in danger, and I don't want to suffer from the idleness of those two, so let them accompany my aunt to Shanglin Yuan, this palace ...... I'm not going to go to this palace!"
Next, no matter how the palace maid persuaded her, she was sure that she was afraid of the Shu sisters, and she wanted to stay in the imperial city, "Even if you stay here and meet the murderer, the left and right are only white knives in and red knives out, and they are neat and tidy after all! It's better than being with those two, soft knives left and right, endless tossing people! I really think about it, it makes people think that it is better to die by themselves!"
As for the disfigurement that the Shu sisters were worried about, she said that she had nothing to be afraid of, "This palace stays alone in this Wangchun Palace all day long, and the people who come and go are relatives like my aunt except for the palace people, what does it matter about my appearance?
The queen was determined to refuse to leave, and the palace maid racked her brains, and even changed five or six kinds of rhetoric, but she couldn't move her, so she had no choice but to retire first and go back to Xinshou Palace to tell the queen mother.
When Empress Dowager Meng heard this, she cried: "Poor child! When she didn't enter the palace before, Jiaoyu Niang'er didn't trouble her less, why was she afraid of coming? Even in front of the mourning family, she also taught fifteen years. It's only been a few days since I entered the palace at this time, and I was tossed into this timid appearance by those two cheap maids!"
Zheng Hou was not very happy: "This is all the queen's ignorance, knowing that you feel sorry for her, you have come to this hand! It is clear that you are spoiled and spoiled! Why don't you let the eldest sister let me go to Wangchun Palace and teach her a good lesson! lest I make trouble for you again in the future!"
"You haven't been snubbed and bullied in the palace, of course you said that!" However, Empress Dowager Meng originally liked the queen, and the queen's current situation is very similar to her previous youth, although the queen is protected by her aunt, and her life and usual treatment are guaranteed, but so far she has not had a round house with Emperor Xuanjing, and there is nothing to show under her knees, and she will be confused in the future.
In contrast, at that time, she had no backers in the palace, and the first emperor, Concubine Rou and Concubine Mo all wished that she and Emperor Xuanjing would die early.
Concubine Rou even came to the door every once in a while to find trouble, and the first emperor not only stopped the concubine, but even sincerely hoped that the concubine would succeed as soon as possible.
But she at least has a son, and she is still the eldest son of the first emperor, and she is a candidate for the prince supported by Huan Guanlan and a group of old ministers.
So even in the most difficult days, Empress Dowager Meng finally had a hope, and this hope came true.
Sympathy for the same disease, the Queen Mother naturally has deep feelings for the queen's situation.
At this moment, he scolded Zheng Hou for being ruthless, "Your own flesh and blood, do you have a conscience?!"
Zheng Hou was afraid that she would be angry and hurt her body when she was old, so she had to helplessly ask for guilt: "It's me who is not good, eldest sister, don't be angry!"
Despite this, the queen mother's anger did not subside, and she scolded him, and even planned to go to Wangchun Palace to see the queen in person.
It's just that Chi Zuosi went to talk for a long time, and news came from the West Palace, saying that Er Shu had agreed with Emperor Xuanjing that he was about to leave, but the queen still refused to leave.
In the end, Zheng Hou became impatient, and suppressed his temper and said to the Queen Mother: "Eldest sister, she doesn't want to go to Shanglin Yuan, so let her go! Anyway, she is a young queen who has not been favored so far, and she is not a very important person in the first place, who doesn't know this? Even if someone on King Gaomi's side wants to deal with us, he can't leave clues for her!"
He also hinted that the palace people went to summon the guards of Wangchun Palace, knelt under the Danqi, and repeatedly assured the queen mother that they would definitely guard with their hearts to ensure that the queen was safe and sound.
Empress Dowager Meng was entangled for a while, but she couldn't resist everyone's persuasion, so she had to sigh and tell the people who stayed behind to take care of the queen, and then she entered sullenly and went to change out of the dress.
At this time, the messenger of the sleeping crane was stepping into Chang'an City.
