Chapter 15: Accusing Yourself
Zhou Ying had done the foreshadowing before, and the emperor also accepted that her mind was not an ordinary child, so she thought about the words and said: "The bad things done with the mother and the concubine have been done, and the punishment of the father and the mother has been clearly decreed, both of which are already in the boat and cannot be changed, but there is one thing that has room for advance and retreat, that is, the father accidentally became an accomplice." ”
The emperor straightened up and got serious.
Regarding the emperor's two ends and the mud, Zhou Ying only didn't know, "My father has already returned justice to my mother, and I guess the last thing my father can't let go of in his heart is that his father brought the smell of Qu wheat from Liao Guiren and passed it to his mother, so that the mother concubine almost had an accident." ”
The emperor only felt that he was said to the heart, "It's still Xiao Qi who understands me." ”
Enjoy the blessings of all people, but don't want to bear the consequences, where is the cheap thing in this world?
The grievance in the emperor's tone was helpless, Zhou Ying just didn't hear it, she turned back to the topic, "My idea is actually very simple. The mother concubine has never been out of the house since she had a happy day half a year ago, and Mingxi Palace is managed by the mother concubine like an iron bucket, and the mother concubine naturally can't contact the external source. But there are two exceptions, one is the arrival of my father's royal car, of course, there is no obstacle in and out, and the other person is me. ”
"Since I went to school, I have to go in and out of Mingxi Palace every day. Every day after school, I greet my mother, and my mother wants to stay close to me for a while. If I said that I got something outside and passed it on to my mother, it makes sense. Zhou Ying waited with bated breath.
"How did you come up with this idea?"
"I want to share my father's worries."
"You're not afraid that your mother will blame you?"
"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid, but I'm even more afraid that my father and mother will have a gap because of this."
"When you talked about concubines just now, didn't you say that if a person does something wrong, he should be punished? Why has it changed now? After all, whether intentionally or unintentionally, I have become an accomplice. ”
"My father is different from my mother. My father would teach me how to practice calligraphy, and he would specially serve me vegetables when I ate, and everything I liked to eat...... and the mother concubine, how can they compare with their father. Zhou Ying bit her lip and lowered her head sullenly, "Since I moved into Mingxi Palace, I have gone to Xiuyu Palace to ask for peace so many times, and I can see the number of times I have been with my mother, and I can count it with one hand." Even if I'm a fool and eat so many closed-door soups, I know that I don't like my mother. ”
Zhou Ying secretly glanced at the emperor, a little cautious, "Since she doesn't like me, then I don't like her either, treat each other politely, just don't fall into your mouth, why do you want me to treat her with my heart and lungs?" ”
The emperor rubbed the jasper wrench on his thumb, "Are you still reasonable?" ”
Zhou Ying straightened her small chest and bluffed, "Whether it's reasonable or not, I'm going to be biased, and I'm going to treat it differently, can't I?" ”
If Zhou Ying has always been like a saint, willing to sacrifice himself and fulfill others, the emperor will be suspicious. Now Zhou Ying revealed his careful thoughts, proving that he was not perfect, but the emperor was suspicious, he stroked his palms and laughed: "Okay, the pearl in my palm, I can poke a hole in the sky, what is this." ”
Zhou Ying was laughed so ashamed and ashamed, her face was red, but she was relieved in her heart, and finally passed a level.
The emperor finally stopped laughing, pondered for a long time, and asked again: "Your mother is a person who can't rub sand in her eyes, if she really thinks that you are an accomplice, even if she knows that you are unintentional, I am afraid that she will be disgusted with you." Xiao Qi, are you sure you can handle it? ”
Zhou Ying knew that success or failure was here, her fingers twisted the clothes and belts, struggled for a long time, and muttered: "Since I arrived at Mingxi Palace, I know that my mother's arms are fragrant, warm, and smelling good." I was a little coquettish, and Yao Huang and Wei Zi, who had to be trained by the mother concubine when they touched a leaf, were willing to pick it off for me to play. When I was a female student, I pricked a needle hole in my hand, and my mother blew it, kneaded it, and asked the imperial doctor...... I don't know how frivolous my mother is, but I know that my mother is just feeling sorry for me. ”
The emperor's eyes softened, and this child was very affectionate.
Zhou Ying's tears hung on her eyelashes, and her voice trembled, "Of course I'm afraid that my mother will be disappointed in me, no longer like me, and even hate me, but I know that anyone can make this mistake, but it can't be my father." ”
The emperor was shocked.
Zhou Ying raised the back of her hand, wiped away her tears, and said in a firm tone, "Others are wrong, the mother concubine may just be sad for a while, after being sad, she should be angry, she should be angry, she should take revenge, and she is a good person." But if it is the father, according to the mother's temperament of seeking full blame the closer she gets, the heartache and sadness are light, I am afraid that her heart will die to ashes, and she will be like a walking corpse for the rest of her life, what should happen then? ”
Regardless of whether Xu Guifei was really infatuated or not, the emperor obviously bought this account, and he felt sorry for Xu Guifei.
Zhou Ying said seriously: "So this matter, I must admit it for my father." ”
The emperor was originally weak and did not dare to face Xu Guifei, but now with Zhou Ying's righteous and awe-inspiring words, it became that the emperor thought about the happiness of Xu Guifei in the second half of his life, and had to tell a lie and let his young daughter bear the blame, "That's it, just listen to you." ”
The big stone in Zhou Ying's heart just landed, "Thank you father for your success." ”
The emperor has a little conscience, "In the future, even if your mother treats you badly, I will protect you and will never let you be wronged." ”
It was only at this time that Zhou Ying paved the way, and said naturally: "Nothing else is enough, there is one thing that the father and the emperor want to fulfill." ”
The emperor solves the great trouble in his heart, and it is the time to speak, "Say, what is the matter?" ”
Zhou Ying naturally drew out the true purpose, she pulled the corners of her mouth, revealing a reluctant smile, "In the future, the mother concubine is afraid that when she sees me once, she will remember the old things once, and her dislike for me will increase a little." While the past love has not been exhausted, it is better for me to leave Mingxi Palace, even if the mother concubine thinks of me in the future, it will not be all disgust. ”
The Emperor muttered, "This is not impossible. However, if you move out, you must always give your mother a reason. ”
Zhou Ying pretended to think about it, and then said slowly: "The reason is ready-made, just say that I almost hurt my mother, and my father took me away, one is to make my mother angry, and the other is to punish my mistakes." ”
The emperor nodded, accepted this reason, and asked, "Then where do you want to move to when you leave Mingxi Palace?" It is said that you were originally in Xiuyu Palace, so you should move back this round. But if you don't deal with the concubine, Xiuyu Palace will be closed for another three years, if you go there, you will not only delay your studies, but you will not have a good time. What about the other concubines, which one are you close to? ”
Zhou Ying hesitated, plucked up the courage and said: "I don't want to call other people's concubines, father, will I live in the fourth place in Qianxi?" ”
