Chapter 20: Jiang Tian Yishi
Su Wanqing asked with a smile, "What's the matter with Concubine Li?" ”
Concubine Li finally found an excuse to get out of Concubine De, but she didn't expect her to be so cold and distant, her face was a little embarrassed, "I have a word to tell Sister Jia, can my sister take a step to speak?" ”
Everyone is polite to this, if you refuse again, you will have no eyes, Su Wanqing happily agreed, patted Yuan Xingying's hand and asked her to wait for a while. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Concubine Li took her to a hidden palace alley, and after asking the palace maid to check back and forth several times to make sure that there was no one, she said, "I have something to say about the concubine, I said it to my sister." ”
Su Wanqing felt bored, "The concubine is not interested in the affairs of the concubine. ”
"No!" Concubine Li was a little anxious, "It's not a matter of whether I'm interested or not, my sister must know the old things between the concubine and the emperor, so that nothing goes wrong." ”
Su Wanqing frowned, and she couldn't see the calculation on Concubine Li's face, so she was willing to stop and continue listening.
Concubine Li was a little at a loss, and in view of the fact that someone might see them at any time, she simply said, "What happened in the palace before was roughly what Concubine De said." What I want to tell my sister is that in front of the emperor, don't mention everything related to the concubine. How the emperor treats the concubine, the younger sister has to pretend that she doesn't know anything. ”
"Is this...?"
"At this point, Jia Fangyi must cherish grace."
Su Wanqing still wanted to ask clearly, but Concubine Li had already turned around and left. She was full of doubts and had nowhere to solve them, so she could only put them in her heart for the time being and returned to the palace first.
As soon as he stepped into the palace gate, he saw Huaqin and Rong Ning greeted him, and a group of people walked into the wing room and sat down, Su Wanqing asked, "Is there anything big?" ”
Rong Ning called Qian'er and said, "Back to the two little masters, the slave just got a letter from the Internal Affairs Office, and the concubine Niangniang will personally present a birthday gift to the emperor this year." ”
Su Wanqing smiled dumbly, "Father-in-law Rong, we have heard about it a long time ago. ”
Rong Ning bowed down, "This word has spread all over the palace, but the little lord has never heard of it, the emperor ordered the Internal Affairs Office to prepare a two-seat dragon chair, and sit with the concubine on the day of Wanshou Day!" ”
Yuan Xingying was shocked, the celadon kiln cup in her hand trembled, spilled tea and soaked it on her robe, and Qiu Sui, who was waiting beside her, hurriedly drew a silk silk to wipe it.
Su Wanqing looked at her deeply, and was as surprised as she was in her heart, but she was shocked, and only muttered, "The emperor values the concubine so much." ”
Huaqin was puzzled on the side, "Didn't you say that the emperor doesn't favor the concubine, how can he have such a favor?" ”
Yu Ying glanced at Su Wanqing and said softly, "Over the years, the harem has always been unclear about this matter. Since the autumn siege of Chengde for four years, the emperor rarely stepped into the Zhongcui Palace, but the concubine is still the highest-ranking concubine in this palace, and her food and clothing have never decreased. So everyone always thought that the concubine was sick and needed to recuperate, and the emperor still valued the concubine. ”
Su Wanqing suddenly remembered that day in the Qianqing Palace to ask the emperor why he didn't leave an heir, and the emperor replied indifferently - "There is one person in the heart, and the others are incomparable", could it be that the emperor's sweetheart is Murong Guifei? No, the emperor said that the throne and heirs are reserved for her, so why hasn't she canonized the concubine as the queen for so many years?
She felt confused, and suddenly she couldn't tell anything. As soon as Yu Ying's words fell, the voice of the little eunuch came from under the corridor, "The emperor is coming to our palace!" ”
Su Wanqing hurriedly got up and went to the palace gate to greet him, the emperor leaned crookedly on the shoulder of the gilded body, supported his head with one hand, and stood on the squirrel chair with his elbows, with a haze between his eyebrows, not angry and arrogant.
"The concubines welcome the emperor, and the emperor is safe."
The emperor lowered his shoulders and held her arm weakly, "No need to be polite", the corner of his eyes swept to Yuan Xingying, and asked casually, "Yuan Guiren is also there?" ”
Yuan Xingying was still afraid of the emperor in her heart, so she didn't dare to speak, Su Wan Qing replied, "Today I went to Changchun Palace to meet Concubine Shuniang and Princess Wei Wan, and by the way, I saw Sister Yuan, Sister Yuan was not good-looking, it was the concubine who pulled her out to relax, this is not tired, I just went to the palace to have a cup of tea." ”
The emperor sighed and said to Yuan Xingying, "It's getting late, you go back first, I have time to see you." ”
Yuan Xingying belched flatteredly, knelt down and slowly retreated. Su Wanqing looked at her emaciated figure and sighed.
The Emperor asked, "What do you sigh for?" ”
She took the initiative to take the emperor's arm, raised her eyebrows and said, "Sister Yuan's heart knot is always untied, and even people are haggard, so the concubine has a feeling." ”
The emperor walked into the palace gate with his legs raised and said with a smile, "You have time to worry about her, come on, I will sell your personal favor, and I will turn over her sign once in a few days." ”
"That's the best thing to do."
The emperor vaguely heard a little unhappiness in those words, "I'm still jealous after all, so don't think about pushing me to others, my heart is all with you." ”
Su Wanqing was shy, "Why is it like this all day long, and the emperor is not ashamed." ”
"What do I have to be ashamed of, it's all you girls who are ashamed to answer." The emperor took the tea she was holding, lifted the tea lid and scraped the tea foam, and said casually, "Did you go to the Imperial Garden just now?" ”
"Yes, I went with Sister Yuan."
The emperor took two sips and put the tea cup on the pear blossom table on the kang, "It's so hot, what's there to wander around in the imperial garden, there are quite a lot of people in the garden?" ”
Su Wanqing remembered Concubine Li's entrustment, and suddenly felt that the emperor had something to say, "The sisters have nothing to do, and if they don't want to be bored in the palace, they can only go to the imperial garden for a walk. ”
The emperor squinted and snorted, unable to hear the joy or anger, and said nothing more. The eunuch of the study presented the art of war with him, and Su Wanqing ordered the palace people to light up an oil lamp, and he himself half knelt on the pedal to relax his muscles and bones.
The emperor glanced at the humble and obedient woman out of the corner of his eye, and the question he asked her just now did have an extra layer of meaning. I thought she was the woman in the palace who was willing to give her all her heart, but she never thought that she was still cautious and avoided taboos as much as possible. Have you heard about the concubine? Not worried that the concubine will affect your grace? What he felt tired about was that she was actually guarding herself and afraid of herself, was she not hot or not?
The emperor dragged Su Wan up, "I'm not tired today, you don't need a massage, go and sit opposite." ”
Su Wanqing let out a confused "oh", "The emperor is hungry?" When are we going to have a meal? ”
The emperor looked back at the sky through the gauze bandage, the sky was already a little dark, the scorching sun was slanting westward, gradually fading the fiery temperature, and as far as the eye could see, layers of gray clouds were gathered.
"It's going to take a while to pass the meal, it's not too early, let's pass it now!"
Li Ronggui responded, bowed down and withdrew to pass the meal. The emperor crooked on the mattress and looked at the art of war for a while, and after eating, he led Su Wanqing to the bookcase to copy calligraphy, big hands and small hands, writing quite interesting.
"Jiang Tian is free of fiber dust, and the lonely moon wheel in the bright sky. It's a pity that the concubine has never enjoyed such a beautiful scenery. ”
The emperor's left hand was placed on her waist, rubbing and kneading it as if out of nowhere, and after a moment he said, "I have seen it." ”
