Chapter 69

As soon as Huo Yi's carriage stopped in the palace, the old eunuch Sun who was waiting for the emperor in the Qianming Palace greeted him with a smile on his face: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the Queen Mother, King Liang and King Ning are waiting for you in the Qianming Palace, please go to the Qianming Palace with the old slave." ”

Hearing this, a trace of coldness flashed in Huo Yi's eyes, and the corners of his lips were slightly hooked with a hint of sneer, the former Ming Hall is the palace where the emperor lives, and it seems that his father intends to deal with this matter personally.

Ordered Song Jingyang and He Biqi to wait in place, and as soon as his footsteps turned, he walked towards the Qianming Palace, and Manager Sun waved the dust in his hand, bent down and followed behind Huo Yi.

After a heavy snowfall, the palace is beautiful, even the eunuchs and palace maids who come and go in a hurry have become a touch of color in the beautiful scenery, Huo Yi has no intention of appreciating it, and a warm smile appeared in his mind, a face is smooth and pink, but the place on the right cheek next to the ear was scratched by the naughty Xi'er A red mark, the newborn baby's hand strength is not big, if the average person is caught, it will disappear after a while, but the skin that thinks twice is white and tender, the red mark has not disappeared overnight, when he got up this morning, He could still see the red marks on his face, and he felt inexplicably distressed when he saw it.

Thinking that there should be not much jade paste left for the last time for Sansi, I would ask for some jade paste from the imperial grandmother before returning home.

"Be careful, Sovereign."

As soon as I turned a quiet corridor, I heard the laughter of a woman's charming warbler.

"Chun Tao, you be quiet, don't frighten the birds, look at what they are eating." The woman's voice was crisp and sweet, especially pleasant in the cold wind.

"Sovereign, be careful, don't fall."

The group turned around, and saw that at the end of the corridor, two white-clothed figures were waiting among the snowy grass, the same white clothes, but the taller woman was slender, and the hairpin on her head was different from the woman next to her, obviously the monarch.

Huo Yi's gaze only glanced at the two of them, and then he no longer paid attention, but when Sun Gonggong saw this, he slowly took two steps forward, Fang Xingli smiled and said: "The old slave has seen the Mingmin monarch, is the monarch feeding?" ”

Su Mingmin turned around and was about to speak, when a pair of big watery eyes saw Huo Yi, his cheeks immediately turned crimson, and his voice was inexplicably lowered a lot, and he bowed and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, Mingmin is polite." ”

Huo Yi's eyes were indifferent, and he didn't look at Su Mingmin, but nodded indifferently, and his eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly.

Seeing that Huo Yi was so cold, Su Mingmin's originally smiling face stiffened for a moment, but as if he was used to it, he immediately regained his smile again, and said sweetly: "Your Highness is going to the Qianming Palace?" Myeongmin's father was there, too. ”

Huo Yi then moved his gaze to Su Mingmin's face, his sight was full of indifference and disdain, he had never liked to talk too much, especially such a person who didn't know the times. "The monarch is here to mourn the queen?"

The cold gaze finally fell lightly on Su Mingmin's body, she was overjoyed, but no matter how excited she was in her heart, she also thought about her mother's thousands of instructions, the woman remembered to be reserved, so she didn't show too much on her face, she just held back her joy, nodded obediently and said: "Exactly, Mingmin entered the palace with his father." ”

"In that case, why don't you stay in the Queen's Bright Heart Palace?" Huo Yi's voice was obviously full of cold air, but some people didn't know what to do, and they didn't know how to accept it when they saw it.

Huo Yi put his hands behind his back, and a masculine aura between his eyebrows made his face more handsome, so that he stood in front of Su Mingmin, which made her ignore the coldness in Huo Yi's words, and just wanted to get closer to him, closer.

Su Mingmin let out a smile that he thought was gentle and pleasant, and slowly spit out the words that he had prepared: "When I entered the palace and passed by here this morning, I saw these little birds stopping here alone, thinking that such a big thing happened in the palace, and it is possible to forget to feed the little birds." It was time to rest, so Ming Min came out of the Ming Heart Hall and brought some food to feed them. ”

Su Mingmin hung her head, although she came in a filial piety suit, the makeup on her face was very exquisite, and even the hairpin ring on her head was the best-looking one she had chosen, at this moment she was very satisfied with Fang Cai's words, men like women who are simple and kind-hearted, especially women who are kind to small animals, her move should impress Huo Yi, right?

Su Mingmin's careful thinking, Huo Yi could see through it at a glance, his thin lips hooked slightly, and his disdain was fully revealed, only to hear Huo Yi say coldly: "The monarch's love is overflowing, and there will be a lot of affairs in the palace in the coming month, so please ask the monarch to feed it every day." ”

When Su Mingmin heard this, he couldn't help but smile on his face, and suddenly felt that it was too flamboyant, so he disguised it a little, and looked at Huo Yi innocently, looking incredulous: "Does Your Highness really agree with Mingmin feeding these little birds?" ”

Huo Yi frowned, showing impatience, and nodded slightly.

"Ming Min, thank you, His Royal Highness the Prince." Su Mingmin raised her delicate little face, and her mind turned away again, she chose this place because this is the only way from Fushou Palace to Qianming Hall and Mingxin Palace, and it is the easiest place to approach His Highness, and in the next month, as long as she stays here every day, she can see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince every day, and the so-called long-term love is slowly developing on this basis.

Huo Yi stopped looking at her and led everyone towards the front Ming Palace.

"Sovereign, sovereign, sovereign......" Chun Tao saw that Huo Yi's figure had already disappeared in front of the corridor, and Su Mingmin's gaze was still dull looking at the place where His Royal Highness disappeared, and couldn't help but shout in a low voice a few times.

Su Mingmin came back to his senses, the innocent smile on his face immediately disappeared, replaced with a proud expression, glared at Chun Tao, and said, "This monarch heard it, do you need to shout so many times?" ”

"The slave is wrong." Chun Tao has been by Su Mingmin's side for more than half a year, and she is familiar with Su Mingmin's temper, so she doesn't dare to provoke her. "It's windy here, do you want to go back to the Mingxin Palace?"

"What are you going to do back?" Su Mingmin looked at Chun Tao with a smile and said, "Today's goal has been achieved, what are you going to do in that broken place?" The queen has passed away, and she can't do what she promised to this monarch, and this monarch can only marry the person he wants to marry by himself. ”

Spring Peach swallowed slowly, "Oh." "Yes.

Su Mingmin stretched out his hand and slapped Chun Tao's head hard: "Why are you so stupid, you didn't know to push this monarch just now, won't this monarch fall into His Highness's arms naturally?" ”

Chun Tao's eyes widened, "The monarch is ......"

"Forget it, you're stupid! Next time, remember, look at the right time, otherwise it will be a waste of the incense powder that this monarch specially sprayed today. Su Mingmin was in a good mood, and she didn't bother to worry about Chun Tao, she glanced back, a victorious smile hung on the corner of her mouth, it was rumored that the prince favored the maidservant alone, she just didn't believe it, with her appearance and means, she couldn't compare to a criminal slave of the prince's mansion?

Huo Yi entered the Qianming Palace, and there were already many people standing in the hall, in addition to a few princes and important ministers of the court, the emperor who had been lingering on the sickbed also got up, and sat on the dragon chair supported by the personal eunuch, but his face was thin and his spirit was not good, and he coughed from time to time, obviously because he had been sick for too long.

The virtuous concubine Su Wanxian has taken off the hairpin ring, kneeling in the hall with a cloak, although she is down, but there are no scars on her body, before the emperor speaks, she is still a concubine after all, and the person who detains her does not dare to lynch her.

Although the emperor was weak and sick, his majesty did not disappear completely, and there was no trace of husband and wife in his eyes staring at Su Wanxian, and he said coldly: "You say, how did you murder the queen?" ”

The evidence was conclusive, and Su Wanxian didn't want to argue about anything, so she had to sneer: "Your Majesty, what is it about the concubines that is not as good as the queen's mother?" The concubine has served you for so many years, when you are sick, which time was not the first concubine to appear? Which time was it not a concubine who decocted medicine for you? The concubine gives birth to the prince for you, takes care of the harem for the queen's mother, in terms of appearance, hard work, and ability, which of the concubines is not as good as the queen's mother? Why can she be in power in the harem and sit firmly on the queen's throne, and the concubines must bow down to her?! Let her be bullied? The concubine is unwilling! ”

The emperor's face turned red by Su Wanxian's words, and he coughed violently, and the eunuch on the side was carrying water and stroking his back, and it took a long time to recover. "Just because you were unwilling, you poisoned her?"

I don't know which sentence touched Su Wanxian, she actually shed tears: "Isn't this enough?" There is only one queen's seat, but there can be many concubines, the concubines are unwilling, the concubines do everything so well, why can't the concubines be the queen? The concubine doesn't believe in this reason! Su Wanxian forcibly stopped her tears, looked at the emperor from a distance of a few zhang, and said: "Your Majesty, you have been with the queen for so many years, it is impossible not to know how vicious she is, if the concubine does not make the first move today, then it will be the concubine who will die in the future, will the emperor have mercy on the concubine at that time?" ”

Uncle Liang Guo, who was standing on the side, couldn't listen to it anymore, and said hatefully: "You are obviously a strong argument and a gentleman's belly with the heart of a villain!" The queen is big-hearted and righteous, how could she have bullied you?! She can't be harmful! ”

At this point, Su Wanxian is not afraid of anything, she is a death, she prefers not to be shocked to die. "Although Uncle Guo is the queen's family, how much do you know about the queen's thoughts? If the queen mother was really as benevolent as Uncle Guo said, how could she deliberately conceal it when she learned that the prince born to Princess Liang was not of royal blood? Where is the way for her to do this? Where is the righteousness? Su Wanxian smiled weirdly, turned to look at the eldest prince, and said, "King Liang, you don't know, right?" You haven't found anyone who has had an affair with Princess Liang so far, not because you have no ability, but because the queen mother intends to protect it, because that one has a deep relationship with the queen mother! ”

Uncle Guo's face was flushed, pointed at Su Wanxian's nose, and said: "You are jealous of the queen, hate her status above you, and poison her, this is an indisputable fact, even if the queen has already driven west, you can't help spewing blood here!" After that, he knelt on his knees and pleaded: "Your Majesty, the minister believes that this matter is definitely not planned by the virtuous concubine Niangniang alone, and the minister implores the emperor to find out the truth and make the decision for the queen!" ”

"I hate her, I hate her to the bone marrow! But I am not a bloody mouth, the emperor only needs to summon the grandmothers and maids around the queen to ask, and he will know that people are dying, and their words are good, and I will never lie at this time. Su Wanxian said, looking at the emperor sitting on the dragon chair with a pair of eyes full of affection: "The concubine and the emperor have been in love so far, they can serve the emperor for so many years, and the concubines are also content, I just ask the emperor to give the concubines a good time for the sake of the concubines who have followed you for many years." ”
