Chapter 60: Hannah
For breakfast, it was already sunrise outside, Chao Gui hadn't woken up yet, Xiaoman and Dong'er had already gotten up. They hadn't slept well at all last night, and had been worrying about the princess.
Yesterday was the day of the princess's wedding, and she got married for the second time at any time, but she was married by the Ming media, but the groom left the princess on the wedding night to sleep with another woman, this kind of thing happened to any woman, it would be unbearable, not to mention that there were so many people watching, now, the princess has no face at all in the palace.
When they came in at dawn, they saw that the princess was sleeping soundly, and both of them thought that the princess was sad last night, and did not sleep well, and only got up late this morning, so they did not make a sound, and quietly prepared things for washing, and prepared breakfast, and waited outside.
"Hey, the princess is so pitiful, she was killed by her own mother since she was a child, although she was hugged to Concubine Jin's side and enjoyed the glory and wealth for a few years, but she was adopted by the enemy who killed her mother, what kind of mood would it be? It's easy for Jin Guifei to fall, and those people came to vent their anger with the princess again, but they regarded the princess as Jin Guifei's own daughter, and almost gave people to death! β
Xiao Man looked at Chao Gui's dormitory and said leisurely.
Dong'er also sighed: "Yes, it was easy to get the favor of Queen Mu later, and because of the persecution of Empress Dowager Mo, she fell out of favor, and it was all kinds of troubles here, in fact, the princess has been careful since she was a child, and no one dares to commit the crime, and the exposΓ© of Empress Dowager Mo's mother and daughter is also for self-preservation, otherwise, if she doesn't expose them, she herself will have to be used as a punching bag by Empress Dowager Mo sooner or later." β
"But no, if it weren't for Empress Dowager Mo's aggressiveness, the princess wouldn't have designed to let herself fall into the water, and wanted to marry the prince of Qingluo Kingdom and leave Dajin, in fact, our princess didn't do it for vanity, because only when she got married could she escape Empress Dowager's revenge, but unfortunately, our princess had a thin life and failed to succeed after all. I have been married here, and I have been stumbling, and I see that the future will not be better......"
"Hey, it would be nice if Queen Mu was willing to protect the princess, with Queen Mu covering, they wouldn't dare to go too far, otherwise, the princess would definitely be bullied to death by that Hannah......
Hannah's jealousy is famous, even if the princess doesn't do anything, just because she occupies the position of queen, it is enough for Hannah to hate her, not to mention that the princess is so beautiful, much more beautiful than Hannah, it's a difference......
The two of them were sighing, and suddenly Chao Gui's voice with the breath of the bed came from inside: "Xiaoman-Dong'er-"
"Yes, the slave is here!"
Xiaoman and Dong'er listened, stopped their mouths, got up and went inside.
After Chao Gui woke up, he saw that it was already dawn, so he called Xiaoman and Dong'er to come in and serve. After the two girls came in, they were a little dark green under their eyelids, and when they saw it, they knew that it was because they didn't sleep well last night, and they felt distressed for a while.
These two girls have followed her since she was a child, and they are both loyal to her, if they hadn't been desperately protecting her, as early as after the fall of Concubine Jingui, she was used as a punching bag to grind to death.
Therefore, although they are nominally master and servant, in her heart, she has long regarded them as her sisters!
After washing, Dong'er said, "Queen, it's this hour today, shall we go to the hunting ground later?" β
Chao Gui looked at Xiaoman, then at Dong'er, and said, "Go, since it was all booked yesterday, don't let Jiabai prepare." Let's leave after dinner, we can arrive at noon, and go back in the evening, it is estimated that we will be back before dark, it should be in time! β
Her mouth is arranged in a very detailed and careful manner, but in fact, she doesn't want to go to the hunting ground, there are too many troubles recently, she just wants to be quiet, but when she sees the expectant eyes of the two girls, the rejection on the side of her mouth becomes approval, because she also wants them to go out for a walk, the two girls are young girls, it is the age of fun, because of her, they have been depressed in the dull palace for a long time, and it is rare to have a chance to go out, so let them go!
After eating, the two girls put on a goose-yellow thin silk riding costume for her, and her long black hair was braided into many small braids hanging down at the back of her head according to the style of Xianbei, and the top part of the hair was raised to the top of her head, and she was tied up with a small pearl crown, and the slender braid hung down from the top of the crown, which looked pure and lively.
After dressing up, she took Dong'er and Xiaoman, and a few guards and servants who were married to her, and rode out of the palace on horseback.
The hunting ground is in the north of the capital, more than thirty miles away from the palace, when I ran there, it was already noon, I got up late, I ate late, I was not hungry at all, but she was a person who would be considerate of others, although she herself was not hungry, but the girl and the guards must be hungry, so she ordered everyone to go hunting first, no matter what they hunted, first roasted the prey as lunch and ate it, and then went to hunt.
After the order was given, everyone dispersed and went everywhere in search of prey.
Chao Gui's riding and archery is carefully trained since childhood, not only the calm and elegant beauty of the pink beauty, but also the sassy and heroic posture of a man on the battlefield, because Concubine Jin has already told her that she is her daughter, so she should be the best in everything, whether it is talent or riding archery, it must be much stronger than Chaoyang.
In order to please Concubine Jin, she tried her best to learn everything, and strive to be a perfect princess, comparing Princess Chang to the princess, so that Concubine Jin could treat her well, therefore, her equestrian skills are excellent, and she is riding on a horse at this time, and she has inadvertently become a beautiful scenery in the hunting ground.
The goose-yellow young woman, riding on a galloping horse with her hooves raised, holding a delicate bow in one hand and pulling the reins in the other, her braids and skirt fluttering in the wind as the horses run, are very beautiful.
He Lanhao didn't expect her to come here, nor did he think that she would have such a side, when he saw her like this, he couldn't help but have a strange look in his eyes.
Since he was a child, he has had a great ambition, so he never spends energy on women, and he mostly glances at women, and his eyes never stay on anyone's body. But today, when he saw the delicate and elegant figure of yellow, he couldn't help but be fascinated.
It turned out that a woman could be so beautiful when she rode a horse, and he didn't know that a woman would look so good when she rode a horse!
Hannah was by her side, looking at Chao Gui who was running towards them from afar, and then at He Lanhao, who had been staring at her, so angry that she was about to crush her silver teeth.
This slut is clearly here to seduce Her Majesty, look at the clothes she is wearing, her chest is so tight, when the horse runs, she still trembles, and her waist is also tight, outlining her slender waist very clearly, as well as her pretending to be noble and elegant, saying that she is not here to seduce men, she doesn't believe it.
"Slut, damn slut!"
Hannah scolded angrily in her heart, angry!
What she hates most in her life is a woman who wants to seduce her man.
Helan Hao is hers, she is her own, she will never allow other women to covet him, otherwise, she will do anything!
Since childhood, she grew up with Helan Hao, her mother is He Lanhao's nurse, He Lanhao's mother died early, and has been taken care of by her mother, and her mother gave him meticulous care and care, so that He Lanhao's hard and brave heart finally has a softness, in his heart, the nurse is his mother, is the closest person in the world, because of his mother's relationship, he also loves himself like a sister.
However, she didn't think so, since she was a child, she liked that fierce and heroic young man, and was determined to marry him, although their identities were very different, and she was not worthy of being his wife; Although she is a year older than him and not very beautiful, this cannot stop her from loving him and her determination to marry him, because she has a very heavy bargaining chip, which is her mother, his nurse.
Helan Hao is very good to her mother, like a filial son to his own mother, obedient, when his mother asked him on her deathbed that he must marry her in the future and treat her well, he agreed without hesitation!
That's why she was able to stay with him and become his most important woman.
Although it's not because of love, as long as you can get him and be his only woman, it's enough!
And she believes that as long as they look like this, sooner or later, one day, he will fall in love with her and can't do without her, instead of having to ask for her because of his mother.
Due to political reasons, he can't marry her as the queen, but he has promised her that he will give her the rest except for the title, she is his woman, the master of the harem of the Xianbei Kingdom, and the princess of the Great Jin Kingdom is just an ornament, if she is honest and keeps to herself, she may still give her a bowl of rice to eat, but if she dares to think about her man, she will fight to blame the Great Jin Kingdom, and she will not tolerate this slut!
Judging by the shape of the present, she really can't keep her.
Chao Gui didn't expect that he would meet He Lanhao and Hannah here, Helan Hao officially ascended the throne yesterday, shouldn't he handle government affairs in the palace today? Why did you come here all of a sudden? And that Hannah, what kind of eyes was she looking at, looking at her tearing eyes, it was almost like she was going to be broken into pieces, and she was terrified when she saw it!
It's really unlucky, how could I have met them!
Chao Gui secretly complained in her heart, but the matter had come to this, and she had no choice but to bite the bullet and get off the horse and salute.
Accompanied by Xiaoman and Dong'er, Chao Gui stepped forward, lowered his head, and bent his knees to greet Helan Hao.
What she is wearing today is a riding dress made of goose-yellow floating brocade, which is different from the wide and dignified queen's court dress she usually wears. Her figure is excellent, slender and straight, moderately tall, convex where it should be, concave where it should be, with her elegant and noble temperament cultivated since childhood, it is really eye-catching.
"Get up!"
He Lanhao raised his hand, and he was surprised that he didn't blame her, why did he suddenly appear in front of him.
Hannah on the side became more and more angry the more she looked at it, especially when she saw that He Lanhao's deep eyes did not show disgust and disgust, and she hated her teeth even more.
"Thank you!"
Chao Gui got up, and in order to prevent them from misunderstanding that they had deliberately found it, he explained after getting up: "I didn't know that His Majesty had come to the hunting ground, so I was careless for a while, and I disturbed His Majesty, so I'll leave!" β
After saying that, he bowed gracefully and stepped back.
"Wait a minute!"
Without waiting for He Lanhao to speak, Hannah sneered and said, "The king has come later, what are you doing in such a hurry, why don't you go together!" β
She said this sentence with gritted teeth, because she saw that Helan Hao's eyes had been staring at Chao Gui's body, if she was allowed to leave like this, his heart must have been taken away by her, and the queen might have to do something.
Therefore, she must be kept by her side, try to make her stink, and break He Lanhao's good impression of her!
Chao Gui was a hundred and a thousand unwilling to be with them, and just wanted to refuse, but suddenly saw Hannah's sharp and threatening eyes, and immediately swallowed the rejection that came to his mouth, and agreed hard: "Okay! β
Hannah looked back at He Lanhao, and saw that He Lanhao didn't say anything, but acquiesced, and her heart was even more jealous, and her eyes looked at Chao Zhu even more vicious!
Chao Gui was so stared at by her that her scalp was numb, she was afraid but didn't dare to refuse her, so she had to lower her head, took Dong'er Xiaoman on the horse, and followed them uneasily.
The royal hunting grounds of Xianbei are similar to the hunting grounds of the Great Jin Dynasty, all of which are located in the beautiful scenery of the deep mountains and old forests, with high mountains and mountains in the distance, and streams and meadows nearby, in which all kinds of wild beasts grow and reproduce here, from the big tiger and cheetah, to the small hare and pheasant, there are many kinds......
"There's prey in the grove ahead."
He Lanhao pointed not far away, where there were often people hunting, and he used to hunt here often.
"Okay, let's play, let's see if it's the first to shoot the prey!"
Hannah took down the bow and arrow she was carrying, and said to Chao Gui with a smile: "I wonder if the queen dares to compare?" β
Chao Gui smiled reluctantly and said modestly: "My riding skills and archery skills are not good, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you!" β
"Whew-"
Hannah sneered and said, "Don't be modest, queen, since you ride so well on horseback, you must be very good at archery, is it possible that you only ride a horse and can't shoot arrows, what's the use of learning riding there?" It won't be a special learning to ride and be difficult to see! β
Chao Gui's face flushed, she didn't expect Hannah to say such mean words, she peeked at Helan Hao, and saw that he was staring at the front seriously, as if looking for prey, and didn't notice what they were saying.
Chao Gui's heart felt better, and if Hannah's bastard words were listened to by him, she would be embarrassed if he misunderstood her.
"We Dajin women learn to ride horses for travel or to ride, not necessarily to be able to ride a horse and be able to shoot arrows, so Miss Hannah think too much!"
Hannah smiled sarcastically and said, "I hope I think too much, otherwise, I thought that His Majesty didn't accompany you to the cave room last night, and you were unwilling to find it!" β
"Look, there's a deer there!"
Helan Hao suddenly screamed, and while screaming, he pulled his bow and shot at the deer with an arrow.
"Whoosh-"
An arrow hit the deer's leg, and the deer that was grazing was startled, and then ran away into the distance.
When the guards saw that His Majesty had gone to chase the deer, they all beat their horses and followed, and in an instant, only Chao Gui and Hannah were left in the same place, and the two of them were their companions.
Seeing that Helan Hao ran away, Chao Gui said frankly to Hannah: "Miss Hannah, I didn't come to find His Majesty as you imagined, and there was nothing unwilling, long before I married His Majesty, I asked His Majesty to allow me to become a nun, and I also asked His Majesty to allow me to guard the spirit of the first emperor, but His Majesty refused. If I really wanted to compete for favor, I wouldn't do that! β
"But you're still married to Your Majesty!"
Hannah interrupted her sarcastically, and the expression on her face became even more disdainful: "You see that Your Majesty is not interested in you, and deliberately resigned to attract Your Majesty's attention to you, oh, by the way, this trick is called Desire to Capture and Indulge in the mouths of your Great Jin people, it is really despicable and shameless." It's a pity, you didn't expect that although His Majesty insisted on marrying you, he still didn't take you seriously, and the wedding night with you was also spent in my bed. Oh, I forgot to tell you, last night His Majesty was so enthusiastic about me, he asked me twice in a row, and my body is still sore......"
Chao Gui was stunned, she didn't expect Helan Hao's only favorite woman to be so vulgar, originally, when she saw Hannah, she saw that Hannah looked average, and heard that she was born as a slave, and thought that she had a unique character, otherwise how could she get Helan Hao's special favor?
Helan Qi's harem was inherited by He Lanhao, in addition to her, there are many charming concubines and beauties, but after He Lanhao entered the palace, none of them were pampered, and she favored this Hannah girl, although she had not given her any name, but she had long been a nameless queen in the harem!
She thought that there must be something admirable about this Hannah girl who could win the Sacred Heart alone, but now it seems that she is a rude and vulgar jealous woman, which really opened her eyes!
Hannah saw Chao Gui with her mouth open, looking stunned, and thought that her own words hit her and hit her like this, she was even more proud, she glanced at Chao Gui's towering chest, and said sarcastically: "Don't say that you are wearing such a dress and trembling your ** on the horse, even if you expose your **, Your Majesty will not like you, Your Majesty XiΓ promised me that it will only be good for me alone in this life, so even if you strip naked and lie in front of Your Majesty, Your Majesty won't spoil you as a second-hand product! β
Chao Gui's face flushed, she had never heard such obscene words, and Hannah's words made her feel very ashamed, not ashamed of her trumped-up charges, but because the words that only prostitutes and shrews could say were really disgusting to her.
However, although she felt disgusted, she still couldn't afford to offend this Hannah, and she pursed her lips, endured the shame of being humiliated by her, and said out loud again: "Miss Hannah, you really misunderstood me, I really didn't seduce Your Majesty as you imagined." I'm just bored in the palace, I came out to relax, I didn't expect to meet you here, really, no one told me that you came to the hunting ground, otherwise I wouldn't have come, please believe me! β
"You want me to believe you?" Hannah sneered.
Chao Gui nodded, and said seriously: "Yes, I just want to live peacefully with you, I just want to live quietly in the palace, I won't compete with you for favor, please believe me, okay?" β
Hearing this, Hannah laughed coldly, she 'swished' pulled out the knife on her waist, threw it on the ground, and sneered: "I want me to believe that you are also easy, as long as you take this knife and scratch your face, or cut off one of your own **, I will believe you, and from now on I will respect you as a queen, and ensure your prosperous and rich life in the palace, how about it?" β
Chao Gui was taken aback by her crazy idea, and said in a daze, "What did you say?" β
"Our master said that you should scratch your face, or cut off one of your own **, and our master will ensure your glorious and rich life in the palace in the future!" A maid behind Hannah raised her chin and said to Chao Gui with her chin raised.
When Xiaoman and Dong'er heard this, they immediately pulled their horses vigilantly and walked to Chao Gui's side, forming a protective posture, and at this time, Chao Gui gradually understood what she was talking about. She picked up the sincere expression on her face and said coldly: "Believe it or not, you want me to scratch your face or self-harm with you in order to gain trust, you think too highly of yourself!" β
After saying that, he didn't look at her, and went away on horseback.
"Hey, where are you going? You give me back, I haven't finished yet? β
Hannah was so angry that she dared to do this to Chao Gui, and shouted at Chao Gui's back.
Chao Gui said without looking back: "I am the queen of Xianbei Kingdom, the princess of the Great Jin Kingdom, what is your identity, why dare you order me?" β
After saying that, despite Hannah's angry and distorted face, he beat the horse and left.
"Princess, we have offended her now, will she not retaliate against us?"
After walking away, Dong'er asked cautiously.
Chao Gui said lightly: "Even if there is no this time, just sitting on this queen's seat, I have already offended her, so whether I am cautiously respectful to her or resist her, the result is the same." In that case, why should I be careful to look at her face? What's more, this time, if I don't turn my face with her, she won't let me go! β
Xiaoman said worriedly, "Princess, this Hannah is really vicious, she actually wants to disfigure you, I think, she is not a good person, why don't we send a message back to Dajin and ask for the protection of the queen!" β
Chao Gui smiled bitterly and said: "No need, I have lost the favor of the queen's mother, even if I send a message back, she will not help me, why should I take the humiliation myself?" β
But what are we going to do? That Hannah won't give up, and when the time comes, what will we do! β
Before Xiao Man's words fell, Chao Gui's horse suddenly raised its hooves and neighed, and the mane on its neck stood up, and then the horse rushed forward like crazy.
"Queenβ"
Xiao Man and Dong'er screamed, and saw an arrow in the hip of the horse the queen was riding, and when they turned to look, they saw Hannah retracting her bow with a vicious face.
The two girls immediately understood what was going on, screamed, and chased after Chao Gui.
"Slut, you go to die, you dare to take out your body and press me!"
Hannah withdrew her bow and watched as the crazy horse carried the back of the frenzied horse, eager to make up for another arrow!
A personal maidservant said worriedly: "Master, you shot the queen's horse, if the queen has something that is three long and two short, will your majesty blame you?" β
Hannah said nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of, the horse is frightened when riding, and there are more people who fall to death and are disabled, what's the big deal!" β
When the maidservant saw her say this, she didn't dare to say anything, so she had to shut up.
Chao Gui's horse was already startled, and the speed was terrifying, and soon the little Aoi and the others were gone, and she grabbed the reins, and her trembling body clung to the horse, and she could only hear the wind in her ears whistling, blowing her hair to stand on end.
At this moment, Chao Gui's heart was extremely desperate, she was really afraid that she would be thrown to death like this, but when she thought of her unfortunate fate, her heart was not so nervous.
Since God doesn't look down on her, let's die, and if I live, I can't escape this palace, I can't escape those treacherous battles, and the queen may be retaliated by Hannah's madness, she is tired, and she doesn't want to live cautiously anymore, or rack her brains every day to deliberately please anyone.
It is said that when fate closes a door, it will help people open a window, but she is the one forgotten by fate.
Since she can remember, she was hugged to the side of Jin Guifei, and separated from her gentle and beautiful mother, at that time, from time to time, there were nurses and subordinates who warned her that she must be well-behaved, and she must please the concubine, otherwise her fate will be very miserable.
At that time, she was still very young, and she didn't know how powerful she was, and she once cried in front of Jin Guifei because she missed her own mother, looking for her mother.
Then, at the age of three, she was locked up in a dark room, denied food, drink, and for a long time, she was afraid of starvation, and fainted from crying, and finally she was released again, and lay on the couch for a year before she came out of that terrible nightmare.
Since then, she has learned to be obedient and smart, she has become cautious, and she will work hard to please and please those who can control her destiny, she pleases Concubine Jin, the crown prince, and Queen Mu, so as to gain her own safety.
But in the palace, it is impossible to do everything.
After the defeat of Concubine Jin, she became the punching bag of Empress Dowager Mo, in order to survive, she took refuge in Empress Dowager Mu, and exposed Empress Dowager Mo and Nangong Yu wanted to give the emperor a trick, although she was favored and protected by Empress Mu, but she completely offended Empress Dowager Mo.
Empress Dowager Mo is the emperor's biological mother, she can never be brought down, if she stays in the Great Jin Kingdom, sooner or later she will be retaliated against, so when she saw the young and handsome prince of Qingluo Kingdom, her heart moved, she really wanted him to take her out of here, far away, to live in an environment that does not require her to be cautious and does not need her to be pleased.
However, although she has the heart to trust the bright moon, she doesn't know that the bright moon shines on the ditch.
The crown prince of Qingluo Kingdom already has a heart, he is in love with the young lady of the Liguo Mansion, the young lady of the Jian'an Hou Mansion, Wu Xiangyun, and that Wu Xiangyun, whether it is appearance or talent, can not be compared with her, but he is in love with her, and he insists on making her his crown princess regardless of her being remarried.
The moment she learned the news, her heart was very uncomfortable, because before this, the queen mother had taken her and the eldest lady of the Liguo Mansion to have dinner with the prince of Qingluo Kingdom, and she thought that she was the candidate for the crown princess of Qingluo Kingdom, not only her, but also in the capital. But now, Prince Wanyan would rather choose a young woman who would marry again than her, making her a laughing stock for everyone all of a sudden, and all her hopes were dashed all of a sudden.
The devil sent God, she made the decision that made her regret for the rest of her life, and directed and acted out the scene of falling into the water at the banquet. As a result, her plan failed, and she lost the trust of Queen Mu and was completely sent to hell.
She repented and begged for mercy, but she didn't get Queen Mu's forgiveness, she knew that Queen Mu didn't rub sand in her eyes, and she must have been very disappointed in her, but if she could put herself in her shoes, maybe she wouldn't be so ruthless to her.
However, she did not resent Queen Mu, after all, she did it herself, although the purpose of her design to fall into the water was to leave the Great Jin Kingdom, in order to avoid the revenge of Empress Dowager Mo and Princess Chaoyue in the future, but there was still a little vanity in it.
Later, she was assigned to Xianbei, and thought that she would be better off in Xianbei, but as a result, fate did not let her have a better time.
first met Helan Qi's mean and unkind pervert, and then met Luoxue's vicious woman, it was easy for these two people to die and waste to waste, but then they met the uncertain He Lanhao and the jealous Hannah, they were bullying her, grinding her, and not letting her have a good time.
Oh my God, what did she do, and why did fate always torture her?
Rather than live trembling like this, it is better to let the horse fall to death!
