23. The yellow finch is behind

Listen gently, every word is true. Yin Ge didn't expect her to come to Xihaizi, so the conversation between her and the maidservant should not be adulterated.

I see, let my concubine seduce the emperor, I played the role of enduring humiliation, invested a little face, and exchanged the benefits of Princess Shang, which is really a wonderful plan!

She had already believed him, but seeing him freezing in the wind and snow, she thought that he was treating her with sincerity, but who knew that after a circle, it turned out to be like this.

Her hand resting on the low table clenched into a fist, and trembled uncontrollably with rage. Tonghuan was afraid that she would be hurt, and looked at her with a worried face, no matter how much she was comforted at this time, she looked pale, her pain was skin-to-skin, and no one could replace her.

Wanwan felt uncomfortable in her heart, and now that she thinks about it, all the entanglements are ridiculous. has long become a Chinese meal on someone's plate, and she is still feeling sorry for him and excusing him.

She stood up, and the brass ring came up to pick her up, and she pushed her away. She straightened her skirt and walked straight into the apse, with a wave of her hand, the curtain on the dragon and phoenix floor cover fluttered high, and the person behind the curtain looked back and saw that it was her, and was shocked, and suddenly turned pale with fright.

Her gaze moved down and landed on her slightly bulging lower abdomen, "You still want to be the prince, you are so high-minded!" ”

Yin Ge knelt down with a bang, and kept kowtowing to the floor, "Slave maid...... The slave maid said nonsense, Your Highness should not take it seriously. The slave doesn't know ...... I didn't know that His Highness had arrived, and I didn't have time to greet His Highness, so I ask Your Highness to forgive your sins......"

Wanwan's heart was cold, and her speech was naturally cold. She laughed and said: "I can't argue about establishing a prince, and the harem still doesn't dare to think about it, let alone you!" What you said just now, if you put it on the table, I'm afraid that even the emperor won't be able to protect you. ”

Yin Ge was frightened, she had always known that this aunt didn't hum or ha, and she understood everything in her stomach. rushed back to what she said to the emperor in the imperial garden, and later the emperor was faintly frightened of her, and he had committed a crime in her hands, and there was good fruit to eat.

Dizzy and dizzy, what did you just say? This thought didn't matter, and he immediately broke out in a cold sweat. She can not ask who is the queen and who is the prince, but can she be so tolerant and generous when it comes to marriage matters related to her? Yin Ge glanced at the maidservant beside her, and she had already knelt and trembled, and it was impossible to expect her to ask the emperor for help. In this case, the eldest prince mainly wants to dispose of her, she is a nameless and pointless woman, why don't you let her rub it!

She paused, "I beg Your Highness...... I beg Your Highness to spare the slave and maid for the sake of the child in the womb of the slave and maid. No matter how wrong the slave is, the child is innocent......"

Wanwan looked at her contemptuously, and said coldly: "You don't have to use children to sell you, there are more than a dozen serious princes in the palace, and the most important thing I lack is my nephew." Listen, I don't want your life, but you'd better explain the truth about what you just said. You have come to this point with the emperor, is it really arranged by King Nanyuan? ”

Yin Ge's head is as big as a fight, this matter seems to have reached a dead end, and no matter how you answer, there are risks. If he confesses to King Nanyuan, I don't know how he will clean her up in the future; If she fools the eldest princess now, not to mention what she will do if she initiates a ruthless attack, just thinking about the fact that she has a Xiao Duo behind her back is enough to make her frightened.

She fell to the ground and cried bitterly, "Your Highness, the slave maid is a person like a mustard seed, with shallow vision, and she doesn't speak without thinking, and she blurted out proudly for a while, but she just wants to raise her own value, why does Your Highness take those jokes seriously." Now you tell me that I can't tell why, it's all my words, how can I explain it to you! ”

"This is prevarication, you have now cultivated a positive result, and you should have praised the high and stepped on the low. King Nanyuan is the old master, the old master is not as good as the new master, you don't look down on him, but say that he is calculating, what is the reason? Wanwan was clear when she asked this, but in fact, she already knew it in her heart, but she was still unwilling, and she couldn't believe that she had fallen into someone else's net. This world is too complicated, and you don't know your heart. If he is good at dancing with long sleeves, she also believes it, but he was able to let his concubine not only deceive her, but even the emperor was also played by him, how bold it is!

Inge was an innocuous pawn, she knew. They can't say who is taking advantage of whom, at best, they are just wolves. If King Nanyuan was really so powerful, if she borrowed her courage, she wouldn't dare to confess to him directly, so she changed her words and knocked on the side: "You don't want to say it, I won't force you, just ask you one question, whose idea was it when you came to Beijing in the Mid-Autumn Festival?" ”

This is already the opening of the net, and Yin Ge understands that if he doesn't bite anymore, he will probably be stillborn tomorrow. After weighing it repeatedly, she had to give up and said in a trembling voice: "If you go back to Your Highness, yes...... The idea of the king of Nanyuan. ”

Yes, she and Yinlou were not close in the first place, so why bother Baba to send it, with a hot face and a cold ass. Since it was the king of Nanyuan who asked her to come with her, then it made sense.

Wanwan stood with her sleeves down, as if she had fought a vicious battle, and the middle coat on her back was soaked with sweat. Her situation has become very embarrassing, the edict of marriage has been announced to the world, and regretting the marriage will only become a laughing stock. Even if Yin Ge was the bait given by King Nanyuan for Shang Lord, the emperor took the bait, and Yin Ge was pregnant, this is a fact and cannot be changed. So now she can only move forward and not backward, because the emperor will not allow it anyway.

She came out of the Taisu Palace, raised her head, and the snowflakes fell on her face, not feeling cold at all. Tonghuan held an umbrella for her, and asked cautiously: "How will Your Highness prepare next?" ”

She looked north, and could vaguely see the warped cornices of the north pond, tightened her cloak and said, "Go up to the north and see the emperor." ”

The emperor took a long time to meditate, and she waited there for two hours, but she did not force herself in to ask for a meeting, and there was no major fluctuation in her feelings. Tonghuan has always been worried, lest she can't control herself at this time, and she will be irreconcilable, but she seems to have grown up in an instant, and the stability of the emperor's family has been established very well, and she no longer needs to mention it.

She folded her hands and stood on the promenade looking at the sky, "How many days has it snowed?" ”

Brass Ring said, "It's the fourth day. ”

She sighed: "The rain and snow are too dense today, but I'm afraid that there will be disaster information coming into Beijing." After a pause, he asked, "How many days are left for the New Year?" ”

Tonghuan barely squeezed out a smile, "Xiao You is already preparing Laba porridge, today is the eighth day of the new year, and there are more than 20 days to celebrate the New Year." ”

She sighed, nodded slowly, the days passed so fast, year after year, all in vain.

The emperor's voice finally came from behind her, and she looked back, he was wearing a cloud brocade robe, barefoot, and his hair was scattered, and if he had a sword on his waist, he really looked a bit like Lu Dongbin. He stood at the door and beckoned, "Come, come, isn't it cold outside, look sick again." ”

Wanwan entered the place where he was meditating, and the sandalwood was too strong, mixed with the smoke of the candles, and the tears in her eyes were smoked.

The emperor rolled up his sleeves to wipe her, at this time it didn't look like a ninety-five respect, and it was like when the brothers and sisters depended on each other for a while when they were children. But no matter how much she wiped her tears, he knew that she was really crying, and he felt extremely guilty at the moment, but he had nothing to say.

Wanwan tucked her nose, lowered her head and said, "I'm out of shape, but I can't bear my brother." The day of surrender is getting closer and closer, and I am afraid that I will not have the opportunity to stand so face-to-face with my brother in the future. ”

The emperor was gloomy, "It's not good to be a girl, sooner or later you have to leave home and marry someone else." But don't be afraid, there is a place for you to settle in Beijing, and I will ask the factory to make the princess's mansion beautiful, and it will be easy for you to come back to save your relatives. ”

Today is to discuss the affairs of the princess's mansion, she thought about it before she came, there is no need to be so troublesome, it is advisable to keep it simple. But after that incident just now, I had to reconsider where I belonged.

"The mansion at the end of Jinling, I also have to ask my brother to order the preparations, the ceremony cannot be abolished, and the official is not called to speak."

The emperor nodded, "Don't worry, I have already sent an order to the feudal division, so you must be in the best regard." As he spoke, he led her to sit down, "Asking you to wait for so long today is a mistake and a miscalculation......

She suddenly grabbed his sleeve, "I have a few words from my heart to say to my brother." ”

The emperor's heart jumped, and he said, "As long as you don't want to repent of your marriage, everything is easy to discuss." ”

Wanwan couldn't help but smile bitterly, she guessed correctly, he would not take back his fate, and he had already broken this thought. What she can do now is to turn the tide within her ability, since the king of Nanyuan can assign Yin Ge to ambush the emperor, what else is impossible?

She took a breath and said eloquently: "My brother and I were born to the same mother, I still remember the scene when my brother was sticking to the dragonfly on my back and was reprimanded by my father. My brother wants me to marry the king of Nanyuan, I don't dare to disobey my brother's will, but after a long time, I am afraid that I will think about my brother, you have to be good in Beijing. My father once said that Erlang is concise and literate, gentle and reasonable, and has the etiquette of a gentleman, so I beg my brother, be loyal to the ministers, and the people around me must not be wary. ”

The emperor glanced at her obscurely, "I know that in your heart, I am a prodigal after all, and I am not worthy of being this emperor." ”

She said no, "You are my siblings, you have real talents and learning, if you put these talents and learning in governing the world, why worry that I can't be strong!" But brother, now the four seas are not peaceful, there are Moerkan mobs making rebellion inside, and Tatar crowds disturbing the border outside. If you go outside, you must first settle inside, we have listened to my father since I was a child, and now I have to persuade the emperor that the middle palace is hanging in the air, and it is imminent. Nanyuan Wang Shu Fujin, Mo said that the book is the queen, but she can't even let her enter the palace gate. Brother is a role model for all the people, how many pairs of eyes in the world are staring at you, to say something I shouldn't say, no matter how it is placed, it is like swaggering through the market and teaching the truth. ”

Her generous statement was already beyond the knowledge of a fifteen-year-old child. The emperor looked at her, and for a moment felt strange. Yes, this matter is big enough, after all, it is filled with an eldest princess. Fortunately, now that she is older, she understands the cruelty of politics, which is a tempering that all members of the royal family must go through.

He shook her hand hard, "Wanwan, what you said to my brother today, my brother has written it down." I promise you that Nanyuan Wang Shu Fujin will never be able to enter the palace gate, you can rest assured of this. I have also thought carefully about giving you to the king of Nanyuan, after all, you are my only sister, I often think, I don't know if this decision is right or wrong. You told me that the first emperor had repeatedly warned you not to marry the Yuwen clan, but I didn't think so. Nanyuan is now dominant, and its financial resources are close to Jingshi, which is not a good thing. Now that I have such an opportunity, why don't I seize it and do something about it. He looked at her with burning eyes, "I can't trust anyone now, only you." Therefore, let you go out to Nanyuan, and you will take good care of him for your brother, so that I can sit back and relax in the capital. My father's and brother's country has been passed on to me, and I can't lose it in my life, so even if I bear some infamy, I will admit it. Originally, I shouldn't have let you know about this, but since you started, I won't be shy about it. You and I are both descendants of the Murong clan, and it is not only the responsibility of my Murong Gaogong to keep this eternal inheritance, but also the responsibility of your Murong Jun. ”
