131.Chapter 131
In the Feishuang Hall of Tangquan Palace, Du Guifei had just soaked in the soup bath, her jade face was crimson, and she was softly and weakly helped into the inner room by the palace maid, leaning on the soft couch, squinting her eyes slightly, and gently wiping her hair by the palace maid.
The personal palace maid leaned down and whispered in Du Guifei's ear: "Niangniang, Mr. Huang asks to see you." ”
Du Guifei didn't open her eyes, just waved her hand slightly, and said lazily: "Let him in." ”
said that he was coming in, and Manager Huang just knelt down behind the screen, his voice was neither high nor low, with a little indescribable softness: "Niangniang, Du Ruren of the East Palace was punished by the crown princess." ”
Du Guifei opened her eyes suddenly, looked at Manager Huang outside the screen, and asked in a deep voice, "Why did you punish her, how did you punish her?" ”
"Back to Niangniang's words, it was Du Ruren who collided with the prince and was fined twenty strokes by the princess." Mr. Huang still said unhurriedly.
Du Guifei sneered slightly, what did you collide with the prince, I am afraid that the prince has taken a fancy to Du Ruren, and the princess is dissatisfied, so let's use the topic to play, "What about the prince?" What did he say? ”
"Your Highness didn't say anything." Huang Pipeline.
"Bengu knows, you go down." Du Guifei suppressed her temper and said lightly. After Manager Huang retreated, she couldn't sit still any longer, got up and paced in the hall, "Ah Ling, you take some wound medicine and tonic medicine to Yuquan Palace, give it to the crown princess, and say that this palace is a reward for Du Ruren." ”
Ah Ling, who was dressed in cyan palace, hurriedly curtled her knees and responded, "Yes." Then she walked out, and before she could get out of the door of the inner room, Du Guifei changed her mind and called her out loud, "Wait, don't go first." "Being able to rank first among the four concubines in the harem, Du Guifei has her own cleverness and prudence. She was just fascinated by the extravagant hope in her heart, and she didn't hear the sound of Mr. Huang's strings for a while. Since he said that the prince didn't say anything, this is the best answer. With her understanding of the prince, if he really took a fancy to Wu Niang, he would never let the princess move a finger against her. Moreover, with the respect of the crown prince, it is too normal to recruit a widow to serve, even the crown princess has no reason to stop it. Thinking about it now, I'm afraid that Wu Niang is anxious, not only provoking the crown princess, but also the crown prince.
Du Guifei couldn't help but secretly complain to her niece, "The concubine is shallow-eyed, she has come to Tangquan Palace, and she lives in the same palace with the prince and the princess, so I can't bear it for two days." ”
"Niangniang, it's no wonder that the five ladies are not to blame." Du Guifei's personal palace maid gently rubbed her shoulders and persuaded softly: "The five ladies have all been in the East Palace for a month, not to mention His Royal Highness, even the crown princess has never seen it." I heard that on weekdays, I don't even call out the gate of the Ting Palace, so it's no wonder that the five ladies are in a hurry. ”
"In a hurry? Is this a hurry? Du Guifei raised her eyebrows, and complained with hatred: "The more the prince snubs them, the more he has to calm down." How to teach her at home, don't do it yourself if you have something, let others explore the way first. She is good, she doesn't need to let go of the good family around her, and the other two widows don't mention it, she rushed up by herself, and she deserves to be punished. ”
"The maid is worried that the punishment of the fifth lady is small, and if the prince is angry with the mother for this matter, the gain will outweigh the loss." The palace maid said worriedly.
Du Guifei was also worried, her relationship with the prince was not good, and there were always people who sabotaged between them.
Du Ruren was punished by the crown princess, not only Du Guifei knew, but most of the people in Tangquan Palace knew. Concubine Shu, who lives not far from Concubine Du, has only heard the gossip, she smiled lightly, "I don't know what mistake this Du Ru made that made the princess move the board, Sister Du is afraid that she will die of distress at this time." ”
"Niangniang, do you want to go to the Flying Frost Hall to inquire? The concubine must know very well. The palace maid of the concubine saw that the master was in a good mood, and she also joined in the fun.
Concubine Shu pursed her lips, "Sister Du is very cautious, the news she said is the same as what we know." "In the end, she is not the prince's mother-in-law, and like them, she is guarded by the saints.
"I only pity Du Ruren, and on the first day I came to Tangquan Palace, I was punished by the crown princess, what kind of face can I live in the future." The palace maid's tone was full of sarcasm.
Concubine Shu's apricot smiled in her eyes and scolded lightly: "Talkative, the matter of the East Palace is also something you can discuss." ”
"Yes, slave is wrong." The palace maid smiled and admitted her mistake.
Du Ruren, who was talked about by everyone, had tears in his eyes, pale cheeks and looked at his swollen hands wrapped by the medical woman, and the whole person leaned on the soft couch in a decadent and powerless manner, falling into deep despair. Now that she can't help but be the laughing stock of the entire East Palace, I am afraid that she will also become the laughing stock of the entire Shangdu City, and she still has the face to live. But she didn't dare. Under several contradictions, she didn't dare to hate the prince, and she didn't even dare to hate Su Yan, so she hated the other two widows. If it weren't for their instigation, she wouldn't have dared to go to Mandarin Duck Soup to seduce the prince today, and she wouldn't have ended up where she is now.
Before entering the palace, the details about the palace fight instilled by her family will become a proof of her suspicion. She even wondered if she had been drugged by the crown princess or the two widows, otherwise how could she do such an impulsive thing today, which was not at all like her usual. I had the intention to ask the palace people to come in and check all my personal belongings, and I thought that these palace maids were all assigned to her after entering the palace, and I didn't know the origin of their identities, maybe someone specially arranged them by her side.
The more Du Ruren thought about it, the more scared she became, the more panicked she became, she unconsciously gnawed her nails, carefully recalled what she had said and done since she entered the East Palace for more than a month, for fear that the sentence would be wrong, and let people hold the handle and frame her in the future.
The palace maids around Du Ruren are also in danger. They are all good sons who were selected by the emperor to enrich the prince's harem. It can be said that all of them came with the confidence of being favored and having children. Being trapped in the Yeting Palace before did not erode their confidence, but today Du Ruren almost died, but it sounded the alarm for them.
Taking advantage of the fact that Du Ruren was sitting in the house in despair, without their service, several palace maids gathered together, and everyone's eyes were shocked. It just so happened that the palace maid Ke'er next to Mi Ruren came over to chat, and by the way, when she asked about today's incident, someone patted her chest and lowered her voice and said: "You haven't seen it, the prince's eyes are staring at our widows with evil anger, if it weren't for the princess to speak, our widows would be dead." ”
"The crown princess? Would she be so kind? "These good families all have a deep grudge against Su Yan, and it was only because she didn't let them that the prince didn't favor them.
"Hmm." The one who spoke first nodded heavily, "The crown princess is so good, we shouldn't have complained about her before." ”
Ke'er went back to learn the words to Mi Ruren, she smiled slightly, "It's just some means of kindness, the noble girls from the family, these are the most familiar with playing, but they are not clever." ”
Ke'er asked worriedly: "Ruren, with the matter of Du Ruren, I'm afraid His Highness is even more tired of us." ”
Mi Ruren said lightly: "That's right, I don't ask for the prince's favor, I just want to have a quiet place to live, and I can do something I like." ”
Ke'er's eyes flashed with determination: The widow is so good, how can she be allowed to live a lonely life in the East Palace like this, she is more worthy of the favor of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince than the crown princess. She will definitely find a way to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince see the beauty of the widow. In the East Palace before, they couldn't go out of the gate of the court, but this time in Yuquan Palace, they lived in the same palace with the prince, and there would always be a chance. As long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince understands the widow, he will definitely like her. Before the palace maid Ke'er could figure out a way, she received a notice that they were going to return to the East Palace with the crown prince and the crown princess.
There is too much backlog of affairs between the DPRK and China, and Shen Congzhi finally rushed to the Nanshan Palace to see the emperor in a helpless manner, with an extremely resolute attitude, either you will drive back to Shangdu, or let the prince return to the court.
The old emperor tried to struggle a little more, "Erlang and Saburo are here in the palace, can you ask them to decide on some small matters?" ”
Shen Congzhi, who has always been elegant and gentle, couldn't help but look at the emperor, "His Royal Highness King An and His Royal Highness King Zhou are still too simple, and the sage may be able to teach for two or three years." After speaking, he was afraid that the emperor would not believe it, so he smiled and took out the evidence. King An and King Zhou gave two completely different orders on the same matter, and even quarreled over this, but he sent someone to mediate. He almost didn't tell the old emperor that your two sons were just adding to the chaos, and they didn't have any effect.
The emperor was slightly embarrassed and had to agree to let the crown prince return to Beijing with Shen Congzhi tomorrow. Shen Xiang retired satisfied, leaving the old emperor alone to hold on to his hair. He just finished messing with his son, and he will be ordered to return to Beijing to work tomorrow, Shichiro won't be so angry that he ignores him for a year, right?
The emperor had the courage to ask the prince to summon him, and Ai Ai explained the matter to his son, "Qilang, tomorrow you will return to Beijing with Shen Xiang first." ”
To the emperor's surprise, the crown prince actually accepted this matter very calmly, and only threw down one sentence, "The son of the minister receives the order." "I politely retired.
The emperor's old face fell, and when it was over, Shichiro was really angry.
Jia Xi saw that the emperor was so worried that he almost pulled his hair, and carefully offered advice, "Sage, do you want the old slave to find the princess and talk about it." "Now the only one who can appease the crown prince is the crown princess.
The old emperor was about to say yes, and suddenly remembered that he had just picked up the prince's three little wives and sent them to their husband and wife. No matter how thick-skinned the old emperor is, he knows that this thing is not authentic, and he has the face to let his daughter-in-law adjust the relationship between father and son. "No, no." The Emperor said very breathlessly.
However, Jia Xi's words just now reminded the emperor that although he was embarrassed to find Qi Niang, he could show it. Maybe what he gave made Qi Niang happy, and his son forgave him. The emperor was a little sad at this time, and his father was really sad when he heard him, and he smelled and cried.
Su Yan inexplicably received various rewards from the emperor, which made her very distressed when she had already packed her things, "The things that I want to bring back tomorrow have been packed, and my father has rewarded so much, and I have to pack it up again." ”
The crown prince said very calmly: "All the rewards of my father and the emperor are left, let them slowly transport them back." Anyway, it's useless, so don't rush to take it back. ”
The emperor, who gave useless things and did useless work, drank a jar of old wine again, drunk and confused, and muttered: "Bastard boy...... Belch...... Unfilial ......"
