Text Chapter 249 A Pair of Mourning Stars [Second Update]
Sure enough, although Emperor Xuwen's words were reproaches, Li Shuci clearly felt that there was no anger in them. But she was even more puzzled, could it be that when he took the initiative to give her a wish, he had already expected this day?
She thought of her grandfather, thought of her father, a thought suddenly flashed in her mind, and instantly weakened, what the hell was it. She said: "These two marriages are really too sudden, the courtiers are not ready to get married, and they want to serve their parents at home for a few more years, and they can feel at ease when they are in harmony with Mei Ankang." ”
Emperor Xuwen raised his eyebrows slightly, pondering the meaning of her words: "Even so, there is no conflict between the two. ”
"Maybe the Confucian king himself is not the beloved of the courtiers, and the courtiers have no other reason, but they don't want to marry, please fulfill the king."
The entire imperial study was silent, and Emperor Xuwen's deep and narrow eyes stared at the girl in front of him for a long time before he relented: "You get up, I will seriously consider this matter you said." ”
"Yes......"
Out of the imperial study, Li Shuci's back was cold, and he hurriedly put on a big coat. Her eyes looked at Quan Heng, and she felt more and more that this palace was really a place to eat people, and it was impossible to tell whether it was an enemy or a friend: "Thank you, Grandpa Quan." ”
Quan Heng didn't say anything else, just lowered his bowed waist again, "The county lord walks slowly." ”
In the Confucian Palace, Jin Sheng's face tightened, Gonggong Kang had never seen him look like this. "Lord Wang, the county lord of Yongning may just go to deliver porridge, and it doesn't necessarily ......."
"Not necessarily?" King Ru's face darkened even more, "You don't know her at all. ”
"Or else? Do you want to talk to Li Xiang? After all, the county lord of Yongning is his daughter. You can't really take it as a father and daughter......"
Li Weiqing ...... "The Confucian King has never had this feeling of fire in his heart, no matter how big or small, he has never shown his face." But this girl always has nowhere to focus. He used her, but didn't he give her his sincerity? What is wrong with her? She had to do it with him, just because he pulled Li Weiqing into the water? Or is it because she never had a heart for him from the beginning to the end? "If she is something that Li Weiqing can convince, then how can she be against me."
However, he will never understand the meaning of 'home' to Li Shuci, who was reborn from tears and blood, and how much Li Shuci's heart hates the people who try to destroy her family.
"Find a way to tell Concubine Yi the rumors of the ninth and fifteenth princesses in the palace......" Gonggong Kang came over with his ear, listening to the Confucian king's instructions word by word, his yellowed pupils suddenly contracted, "Lord, this ......"
He has never trusted anyone 100%, including Li Weiqing and Zhu Daguan, he only believes in himself. Even his biological father can betray him, and even from the moment he was born, he was the one Emperor Xuwen was ready to be betrayed. Who else would he dare to trust? He didn't know how to deal with the injustice that was right, but there was no doubt that what he didn't get would not be allowed to be obtained. "Go, do as I tell you......"
In the Da'an Palace, the shallow sunset passed through the clouds, and among the clouds, the palaces and pavilions were also cut off a bit of winter.
However, no matter what kind of good weather it is, it can't dispel the cold in the cold palace, and the stone lotus frozen by the ice on the eaves, as well as the peeling vermilion paint on the window lattice, all show the silence here. Shen Jiayi stood in front of the door of the inner hall with her shoulders bent, looking at the square inch courtyard and exhaling a white breath, picking apples with a tattered broom and laboriously sweeping the snow in the yard, and the exposed green bricks were mottled after the moss accumulated over the years dried up.
The door squeaked, and the waiter who delivered the meal didn't seem to want to step into this courtyard that had not been carefully cared for for a long time, for fear of getting bad luck, so he slammed the food box on the ground outside the door, "Hurry up and eat, I still have to come to get the food box after eating!" ”
The apple-picking hand still held the broom on the ground, and without speaking, he squatted on the ground, opened the food box, and smashed the vermilion lacquer lid with a bang, and the waiter just closed the door and kicked it open again. This time, I didn't think the yard was unlucky, strode forward, kicked over the food box, spilled the leftovers, and the waiter slapped it on the face of Cai Apple, and said in a shrill voice: "Who are you falling!" Treat your master as a mother! Tell you, I was also expected to get out of this door in this life! ”
"You! Don't deceive people too much! Cai Ping struggled to get up from the ground, "Anyway, our master is the biological mother of the Nine Emperor Princes and the Fifteenth Princess!" Sooner or later, there's a chance to peel off your skin! ”
The chamberlain looked at Shen Jiayi standing inside mockingly, and said disdainfully: "It's just a pair of mourning stars, what do you want to count on?" The rumors in the palace haven't reached here yet? is also said, after entering this cold palace, who can still think of you? Uncle Ben will be kind and tell you. Since the birth of the Nine Emperors and the Fifteenth Princess, things in this palace have not been interrupted! Don't talk about the biological mother, but also the adoptive mother, Concubine Xiang is dead, Concubine Hui is gone, Concubine Hua has also become half-crazy, tsk......"
"What do you say? Concubine Hui is dead? Shen Jiayi's phoenix eyes narrowed, and the little chamberlain was trembling for a moment, but she didn't expect this woman to be really ruthless, and her first reaction was not to ask her children, but to ask Concubine Hui. He straightened his back: "I can't say that it's also the pair of sons you gave birth to!" You're going to die with this heart, stay here honestly! If you want to rely on the prince to produce any moths, don't even think about it! ”
The waiter picked up the food box and turned around to leave, Shen Jiayi shouted, "Stop!" ”
"You!" The waiter seemed to be very dissatisfied with Shen Jiayi's scolding, but in the end he still asked, "Hmph! What's the matter with you! ”
Shen Jiayi squinted at him: "Concubine Xiang is dead, who is raising the Nine Emperor Princes and the Fifteenth Princess at this time?" ”
"Naturally, it's Wei Concubine, and there are not a few concubines left in the palace."
"Wei Concubine......" Shen Jiayi stood in the courtyard, muttering these two words. She is still young, and she has a princess, she doesn't believe that she will stay in the cold palace for the rest of her life, what if the Shen family is gone, wouldn't it be better? lest the king be wary of her, she is fully confident that she will be favored by the king on her own.
"Master, I didn't expect Concubine Hui to die?" Cai Ping was still a little incredulous, "Then isn't there ...... in this palace?"
"You're right, Concubine Hui is dead. There is no leader in the six palaces, and among the remaining concubines, they are either old or unfavored. The king is not a lustful person, but he can't even have a person around him who knows cold and hot. Shen Jiayi wrapped her hands around her body to dispel the coldness: "Concubine Hua's family is also rebellious, why should I stay in the cold palace if she only lowers her taste?" ”
Cai Apple's eyes lit up: "Master, do you have a way to get out of here?" "Who would want to take it in such a place if they could!
"If you want your lord to think of me, it's actually very simple." Shen Jiayi muttered: "Since there are such rumors in the palace, if I don't take advantage of them, won't I be sorry for myself." Picking apples, I remember, you used to have a relationship with Huancao in the palace of the concubine, right? ”
Cai Apple was taken aback, but she didn't expect Shen Jiayi to even know such a trivial matter. "Yes, Wei Concubine is not favored, the girls around her have their own thoughts, Huan Cao is also a profitless and unprofitable early, and she is bolder, in the past, slaves and maids worked for the master, and they did not deal with her less. What is the master going to do? ”
"Humph! Since Concubine Hua's guilt has been forgiven by the king, what have I done wrong? "Shen Jiayi gritted her teeth fiercely, it's not that Shen Hao's old thing was too vicious!" If Concubine Wei dies, coupled with this rumor, Han'er and Mei'er will no longer be qualified to raise them, and no one will dare to raise them, and the king will naturally think of me. Even if I don't have a position, as long as I get out of this cold palace, who can still suppress me. ”
Cai Ping looked at her stiffly, did she want her to kill the concubine? "Master...... If someone knows about it......"
"What are you afraid of!" Shen Jiayi seemed to see what she was thinking, "Do you want to stay in this place where there is no popularity, only ghosts, for the rest of your life?" ”
"Master, the slave and maid are not afraid, but we don't go out in this cold palace. There is no silver to do, how to behave......" Cai Ping's face is not good-looking, no matter what Shen Jiayi decides, she is always the first to charge, but she does not dare to show what she thinks on her face, in the past, after Shen Jiayi knew that Qiu Ying was a spy, the method of dealing with her Cai Ping had never even heard of it.
Shen Jiayi's gaze became gentle, she took Cai Apple's hand, and said, "Good Apple, everything is so that we can go out of this ghost place, and when we go out, I will find you a good family, so that you can enjoy a lifetime of glory and wealth." ”
Cai Ping's face was snow-white, but he still asked with a forced smile: "What does the master want the slave to do?" ”
"The two chamberlains guarding outside the door, I think they seem to be a little interesting to you, you might as well pretend to obey them, let them make it convenient for you, and when our master and servant go out from here, I will cramp and skin them for you, what do you think?"
The chamberlain is an incomplete person, it is inevitable that some people's hearts are twisted, and the situation of molesting the palace maid occurs from time to time, and there are even chamberlains who compare with each other, and the bullied palace maid dares to be angry and dare not speak, and does not want others to know that they have experienced such ugly things, they only hope to stay up to their age as soon as possible, so that they can go out of the palace, and no one will know what they have experienced at that time.
In this way, it is even more abetting, after a long time, there are all kinds of tricks in the inner servants, and some people get a kind of medicinal powder from the willow alley of the flower street outside the palace that can make people love to death. Some of the palace maids who made mistakes sometimes fell into the hands of the chamberlain and were humiliated to death. It can be imagined how vicious Kang Yang used to deal with Li Shuci at that time.
Cai Ping seemed to have something in his heart and wanted to break out of the top angrily, but he gritted his silver teeth and begged: "Master, the slave doesn't want to ......."
"What are you afraid of! They can't break your body! Shen Jiayi pinched her shoulders stiffly: "In the future, I will go out of the palace and find a good family to marry, who can know about this?" Do you want to survive here for the rest of your life? Wait for death here, or Bo has a future? Good apples, think about it! ”
