Chapter 235: Confession
"Do you know the origin of this jade pendant?" Ye Siwei didn't speak, and the emperor didn't care, and said slowly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although Ye Siwei didn't say anything at this time, Ye Siwei's reaction and expression at this time were undoubtedly not revealing something. The emperor said this, and I don't know if the emperor has guessed something.
Ye Siwei shook her head, and even her face became a little pale.
"This jade pendant is called Shuanglong Pei, there are two pieces in total, one for me and the second brother. "Although the emperor said the origin, when he spoke up, he only said the ownership of this jade pendant. When mentioning the prince, the emperor's eyes still scanned Ye Siwei's body.
"How...... What's wrong?" Ye Siwei nodded, seeing the emperor's expression like this, Ye Siwei's heart couldn't help but tremble.
"I suddenly remembered that when I was drafted, my second brother once praised you. In Ye Siwei's somewhat timid gaze, the emperor smiled, but the words that came out of his mouth made Ye Siwei even more frightened.
Up to now, if the emperor doesn't know about the prince's affairs, it's impossible. Although the emperor did not show anger, such a smile made people even more nervous.
"Your Majesty, what are you sending this double dragon pendant for?" After taking a few deep breaths, Ye Siwei calmed down her nervous mood at this time and decided to take the initiative to explain the matter.
The emperor just looked at Ye Siwei at this time, his eyes were full of interest, and he didn't even make a sound.
Ye Siwei sighed, and resigned herself to taking out the purse containing the prince's jade pendant from her arms. However, Ye Siwei forgot that this purse was embroidered for the prince before, but because the prince never came, she put it away, and then collected the jade pendant in it. At this time, in front of the emperor, he took out all the purses, if it was embroidered with peach blossoms before, it would be nothing, but on this purse, it was embroidered with the name of the prince.
Sure enough, when the purse was taken out, the emperor's face had already changed, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he snatched the purse in Ye Siwei's hand. didn't open it, but kept looking at the word "Ze" embroidered on the purse.
Looking at the emperor's expression, Ye Siwei couldn't react. Looking at the word "Ze", Ye Siwei's heart chuckled, and she felt that everything was over. Originally, although she planned to confess, she didn't think to explain the true relationship between her and the prince, but now it seems that it is unlikely.
"In this purse, there is a jade pendant that is exactly the same as the jade pendant given by His Majesty, which should be another Double Dragon Pendant that His Majesty said. Ye Siwei temporarily gave up explaining the purse and tried to shift the emperor's attention to the jade pendant.
"Second brother's jade pendant, why is it here with you?" The emperor did not mean to untie the purse, but just shook the purse in his hand and asked out loud.
The emperor obviously knows, otherwise he would have to see the jade pendant in the purse first, whether it is the double dragon pendant before speaking. But now, the emperor just doesn't look at it, but it has been determined.
"One day, I picked it up in the Imperial Garden, and I don't know whose it was, so I kept it by my side, thinking that I would slowly find the Lord in the future. It's just that it didn't take long to come to this cold palace, and this matter was over. Ye Siwei laughed, but in the end she didn't tell the truth.
But if this is not the case, what can Ye Siwei do? It can't be said that this jade pendant is a token of cooperation between her and the prince, right? If the emperor asks what kind of cooperation it is, she will have no choice, it can't be said to be a rebellion, right?
At this time, Ye Siwei only hopes that the emperor doesn't know too many things. If it was just because she saw the jade pendant she hung on her waist before, this lie would be justified.
"Since this jade pendant belongs to the prince, please return it to the prince on your behalf. After picking up this thing, he has been staying by his side, and he is really sorry for the prince. ”
"This purse?"
"Probably the prince's, right? When I first picked up this jade pendant, I wrapped it in this purse. Ye Siwei took a deep breath and told lies, but her face was not red and her heart was not beating. It looked like the real thing.
Regardless of whether the emperor would believe it or not, Ye Siwei felt that at least from her expression, there should be no problem with it.
"In that case, let me return these things on my behalf. The emperor first looked at Ye Siwei, then glanced at the purse in his hand, and finally put the purse away.
"Okay, then trouble Your Majesty. "Although I don't know why the emperor is so easy to talk to, it is so easy to trust her. But finally passed safely, Ye Siwei couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "Your Majesty's gift is too precious, the concubine can't afford it, and I ask Your Majesty to take it back." ”
As she spoke, Ye Siwei pushed back the jade pendant in front of her. In Ye Siwei's opinion, this jade pendant was only taken out by the emperor for questioning, and she was not so stupid as to really accept this jade pendant as a gift.
"If it is a gift for your birthday, you will take it. However, the emperor just glanced at it, and he didn't mean to take it back.
"Your Majesty, this ......" Ye Siwei didn't expect this to happen at all, looking at the jade pendant on the table, she didn't know whether she should accept it or not.
"Su Chang's miscarriage should also pass, wait a few days, I will take you out of the cold palace. When Ye Siwei was still struggling with the jade pendant, the emperor spoke again and threw down another bombshell.
The news after this was not only sudden, but also too important, and Ye Siwei had no way to digest it for a while. She didn't expect that the cold palace would be so fast, and it was in such a sudden situation.
"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty......"
Ye Siwei hadn't reacted yet, but the emperor had already gotten up and was ready to leave at this time. I don't know if the spring pavilion has re-boiled water, and I have made a tea until now, and I haven't come back yet.
"Tang Mingde is waiting outside the courtyard, you don't have to send it. The emperor waved his hand and stopped Ye Siwei's plan to follow.
Despite this, Ye Siwei still sent the emperor outside the courtyard. Sure enough, there was Gonggong Tang waiting outside, and there were some people waiting. It turned out that the emperor did not come alone, and it is estimated that the concubines who got the news outside are about to go crazy at this time.
Seeing off the emperor, Ye Siwei was still leaning on the courtyard wall, and her heart was still trembling because of what the emperor had just said. Although she has been looking forward to getting out of the cold palace, but after this was suddenly realized, Ye Siwei felt a little trance, and there was no sense of reality.
There is another thing, the news that the emperor suddenly came to the cold palace, after it spread in the harem, I don't know how long it will take for someone to come looking for trouble. and the noble Jing side, thinking about it, this relationship has been completely ruined.
"Miss, why are you standing here, Your Majesty?" I don't know how long I stood before the Spring Pavilion came out. Seeing Ye Siwei standing next to the courtyard wall, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.
"It's okay, why did you only come out now when you made tea?" Ye Siwei came back to her senses and shook her hand comfortingly.
"The slave maid saw that His Majesty was there, and if the slave maid was beside her, I was afraid that it would be inconvenient, so she kept hiding. ”
"Go back, I'm a little thirsty. "Although the spring pavilion is next to it, there will be a lot less embarrassment. But today's conversation between her and the emperor, it would not be good if there was Chunxie next to her. Therefore, Ye Siwei didn't say anything about this.
Back at the small table, Ye Siwei drank the quilt water first. However, Chunxie's gaze on the side fell on the jade pendant on the table. After all, not long ago, Ye Siwei told Chunxie the origin of this jade pendant, although she changed it at this time, but Chunxie didn't know it.
"Miss, how can you put such an important thing casually. This is still the prince's thing, if ...... If His Majesty sees it, what should I do?" Chun Xie was stunned for a moment, and then took the thing in his hand, and his expression was even more afraid.
"It's a birthday gift from His Majesty, it's fine. Ye Siwei sighed, the emperor not only saw it, but also took the prince's jade pendant. However, Ye Siwei is not in the mood to explain these things to Chunxie at this time.
Chunxie's eyes were full of doubts. Not long ago, Ye Siwei also told her that this was something sent by the prince. But at this time, it was obviously the same thing, but Ye Siwei said that it was sent by the emperor.
However, despite the doubts in Chunxie's heart, seeing that Ye Siwei was not in a very good mood at this time, Chunxie still endured her doubts and didn't ask anything.
"Chunxie, would you be happy if I could leave here?" Although Ye Siwei didn't explain the matter of Yupei, she kept thinking about the emperor's previous words in her heart, and when she looked at no one around at this time, she couldn't help but want to ask Chunxie.
"Leave?, is the prince coming to pick up the young lady?" Chun Xie first looked around, and after seeing that there was no one, he asked a little excitedly: "But, when did the prince come?"
"It's not the prince, it's Your Majesty. ”
Hearing this, Chunxie couldn't help but open his mouth wide, and he couldn't react for a long time. After Chunxie finally accepted Ye Siwei and the prince, he suddenly changed back to the emperor, which really made people a little uncomfortable.
After Ye Siwei finished speaking, she was also a little distracted. Holding the jade pendant sent by the emperor in her hand, she was thinking about the jade pendant that was taken away by the emperor. The previous emperor was too easy to deceive, which made Ye Siwei very uneasy. And the jade pendant was taken away by the emperor, and I don't know if the emperor will do something.
"Miss, it's not good for you to be like this. After a long time, Chunxie finally spoke, his eyes full of confusion.
Before, it was not easy for Chunxie to accept Ye Siwei and the prince's affairs. After all, people in this era are still conservative in their thinking. Like Ye Siwei, although she didn't do anything substantial, but she wavered like this, even if it wasn't her own volition, in Chunxie's view, it was not good for her reputation after all.
"Do you think it's better for me to go back to the harem?" Ye Siwei sighed, and she was also very helpless about this.
At this time, Ye Siwei really wants to meet the prince, and some things really need to be discussed with the prince. But Ye Siwei just wants to see the prince, so there has to be a way. But she had no way to see the prince at all.
"Miss is His Majesty's constant presence, so it is naturally better to return to the palace. It's just that the palace is a place to eat people, and if the young lady doesn't like it, she can follow the young lady's own heart. Although Chunxie hesitated and entangled, he still subconsciously thought about Ye Siwei in matters related to Ye Siwei.
That's a good thing to say. It's just that Ye Siwei must be able to understand her heart. But now, even Ye Siwei herself doesn't know what to do best.
In the past, she was just in line with the idea of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, all for a better life. But now, whether it is following the prince or the emperor, it is an extremely dangerous thing for Ye Siwei. After all, what the prince is fighting is a rebellious idea. And although the emperor seems to believe it, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not have doubts in his heart, Ye Siwei is following the prince, and he is also worried that the emperor will find out the truth of the matter.
However, if she returns to the harem, Ye Siwei doesn't know how many people she has offended. However, now if he is really taken out of the cold palace by the emperor, I am afraid that just because of this, he will inexplicably set up a bunch of enemies. Just go out, and the road in the palace is not easy to walk.
In fact, it is better to plant fields in this cold palace, although it is not free enough, but it is also comfortable. Although the relationship with Jing Guiren has been ruined now, it is far easier to deal with Jing Guiren as a powerless person than those women in the harem who have the means and backstage, isn't it.
It's just that this matter can't be decided by Ye Siwei herself. It's okay for the prince to say, but I'm afraid that after the jade pendant is sent back to the prince, the prince should abandon her chess piece. But on the emperor's side, she has no way at all. If the emperor asked her to go out, she would have to go out.
Thinking about it, Ye Siwei couldn't help but sigh, feeling very helpless. Yes, she forgot, she couldn't keep the jade pendant, how could she still consider the prince's side. Now it's not casual, but she has to obey the emperor's arrangement.
"Chunxie, go back and embroider the purse, do we have gold thread?" made a decision in her heart, Ye Siwei held the jade pendant, and prepared to embroider a purse as before.
Although Chunxie was puzzled by Ye Siwei's reaction, she saw that Ye Siwei's mood had improved a little at this time, so she immediately responded.
However, the emperor who left, after leaving the cold palace, his face turned cold in vain, and even his eyes became gloomy. In the emperor's hand, he held the purse just now. Ye Siwei felt that there was no problem with her reaction, but she forgot that although her embroidery had improved, it was not very good.
