Chapter Seventy-Three: Her Secret
Ciyuan Hall
The incense burner was lit with the fragrance of ambergris, and the palace maids stood quietly aside, the queen had the habit of taking a nap, and there was a serious wake-up gas, even if there was an important emergency, she had to wait for her to wake up, so when a secret guard quietly pushed open the door and saw that the queen was still asleep, he silently waited for her to wake up.
Until there was a slight sound in the hanging sand curtain, Mama Jin lifted the curtain and called softly: "Niangniang, are you awake?" ”
Tian Ruixin nodded, opened her eyes, looked at the sky outside the window, and said lightly: "What time is it?" ”
"It's time, are you going to eat?" Mama Kim asked.
"Well, let's eat." Tian Ruixin sat up, Mama Jin clapped her hands, the palace maids who had been waiting for a long time hurriedly stepped forward with the clothes on the tray, with clothes and various jewelry on them, Tian Ruixin opened her arms and let the palace maids put on heavy and luxurious clothes for her, put on the beads, everything was cleaned up, the palace maids retreated one after another, and another wave of palace maids walked in, and they all brought delicious food to the table, all kinds of delicacies were mouthwatering, Tian Ruixin just looked faint and walked to the table and sat down with the support of Mama Jin. took the golden chopsticks handed over by the eunuch, casually sandwiched a piece of duck meat of the Eight Treasure Duck, and put it into his mouth elegantly, and after a long time, he nodded with satisfaction and said: "Today's cook's Eight Treasure Duck is doing a good job, Mama Jin, go down according to the instructions of the palace, and reward him with a box of jewelry." ”
"Yes." After Mama Jin said a few words to the palace maid beside her, she came to Tian Ruixin's side and whispered, "Queen Mother, there is news." ”
Tian Ruixin raised her eyebrows, raised her beautiful chin proudly and said, "Let him in." ”
"Yes." Mama Jin withdrew from the other palace maids, and she was just about to go out, but was stopped by Tian Ruixin, "You stay." ”
After a while, the secret guard entered the hall, saluted according to the rules, bowed his head and said respectfully: "The minister participates in the queen's mother." ”
"Skip the empty words and say it directly!" Tian Ruixin waved her hand, and her beautiful face showed a touch of impatience.
The secret guard lowered his head and said, "Queen Qiyu, Prince Jian has gone out of the country in the past few days and went to Dalian Mountain. ”
"Dalian Mountain? What is he doing there? Tian Ruixin remembered that there were precious Chinese herbs there, but the rugged terrain of Dalian Mountain, coupled with the large number of bandits, few people would take this risk to climb this mountain, she thought of this, and couldn't help but ask worriedly: "Could it be that someone in the palace is sick?" ”
"No, Prince Jian is accompanying the third lady of the Lin Mansion to find Hong Yao."
"The third lady of the Lin Mansion?" Tian Ruixin frowned, and Mama Jin reminded on the side: "It's Lin Shangshu's third daughter, Lin Shuran." ”
"It's her!" Tian Ruixin snorted coldly, and a touch of mockery appeared on her beautiful face, "I really didn't expect that her ability to seduce men is not small." ”
Mama Jin noticed the queen's gaffe, and hurriedly interrupted: "Hurry up and finish the matter, don't affect the mood of the queen's mother's meal." ”
The dark guard looked suspicious, but he still suppressed the curiosity in his heart, and continued: "They are already halfway up the Dalian Mountain, and they will reach the mountain in a few days. ”
"Well, I know, you go down, continue to keep an eye on the palace, and if there is anything, report to the palace immediately."
The Dark Guard answered, and withdrew.
When only Tian Ruixin and Mama Jin were left in the hall, Mama Jin saw that she was silent and did not speak, and she did not disturb her, standing quietly aside.
After a long time, Tian Ruixin said coldly: "Mama, this palace lost its temper just now." ”
Mama Jin hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said with some fear: "It's the slave who has overstepped the rules." ”
Tian Ruixin waved her hand lightly: "Get up, this palace doesn't mean to blame you." Mama Jin stood up like a forgiveness, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but she didn't dare to look at her squarely, she knew that every time there was something about Prince Jane, Niangniang would become very unusual, and her temper would become moody, she didn't understand, the queen's position was the mother of the world, enjoying all the glory and wealth, why did she think about the person she would never get? Although she has been by her side since Tian Ruixin was the eldest lady, she has done many unsightly things, and she also knows that Tian Ruixin has always loved Prince Jane, but Luohua is intentionally ruthless, but she doesn't take Niangniang to heart.
Tian Ruixin walked to the bronze mirror and sat down, stared at herself in the mirror tightly, touched her cheek, the woman in the mirror has a small nose, red lips, willow eyebrows, obviously a beautiful face, why does that person always see her but a look of indifference, her eyes seem to be full of some emotion, faintly turned her head to Mama Jin and said: "Mama, is this palace beautiful?" ”
Mama Jin raised her head, looked at today's abnormal queen, and nodded: "Niangniang has always been beautiful, just like in the past." ”
Unexpectedly, Tian Ruixin couldn't help but sneer, "Hehe, as in the past? Then why didn't he look at Hongu? ”
Mama Jin was a little trembling, and hurriedly lowered her head and said, "The slave doesn't know, the prince's mind is too difficult to guess." ”
Tian Ruixin stood up suddenly, and the corners of her lips curled sarcastically: "You don't know, yes, you have been by the side of the palace for so many years, and you can be regarded as an old man in the palace, but why, Prince Jane's mind is difficult for you to guess?" Bengong always thought that he was just pure-hearted and had few desires, and he couldn't even look at the chessboard given to him by Bengong, but now he is risking his life for a woman full of yin, Mama, he has a heart, but that heart is not against Bengong. ”
Mama Jin looked at the sad queen mother in distress, and could only sigh softly and said: "Niangniang, don't think about it, now that you are the queen on top, this secret slave will also be brought into the coffin by oath." ”
Tian Ruixin smiled bitterly in disapproval: "It seems that you still know the palace best." ”
"Niangniang, you can let go of this heart! What if people knew about it? "Mama Jin also knows that it is not easy for the queen mother, for the interests of the family to give up the man who has been secretly in love, in the palace step by step intrigues, I thought that the emperor would treat the queen mother well, but who knows that on the wedding night, the emperor actually let her stay alone in the empty room, never stayed overnight, at the beginning she felt a little lucky, but one day, she heard the palace maids whispering, saying that the emperor likes men, often dresses up as a woman to attract men to sleep, married the queen just to hide people's eyes, Originally, she didn't believe in that kind of nonsense, until one day she saw her husband wearing a bright red dress being pressed under a man, and she almost collapsed to the ground, and her whole heart was as cold as the winter of the wax moon, and no one knew that the queen mother, who had already married a woman, was still perfect.
At this moment, looking at the enchanting self in the bronze mirror, Tian Ruixin stood up and said, "Mama is driving, this palace is going to Kunqing Palace." ”
"Yes." Mama Jin took the order and retreated.
Tian Ruixin narrowed her eyes slightly, and clenched her fingers fiercely, Gao Lian, since you are ruthless, don't blame me for being unrighteous.
After Lin Ran and Luliu rested for a day, they finally had the spirit to continue to climb halfway up Dalian Mountain, and when they were about to climb to the top of the mountain, Luliu felt uncomfortable breathing, her face became pale, and seeing that she was about to slide down, Lin Suran hurriedly grabbed her, helped her to a big rock, and took out a handkerchief to wipe her sweat: "Luliu, what's wrong with you?" ”
Green Willow gasped and said, "Little, Miss, slave, slave maid feels that her heart is beating so fast." Lin Ran hurriedly pressed her wrist, and sure enough, she found that her pulse was beating so fast, and she frowned: "Green Willow, do you have any heart disease?" ”
"No, no!" Green Willow said intermittently, she said as she tugged at her chest, Lin suddenly glanced towards the top of the mountain, in addition to the vast fog, there was also a stream of air drifting slowly, she wondered why she was fine, but Green Willow was fine.
Just as she was thinking to herself, Green Willow's whole person began to twitch, and Lin suddenly stepped forward and grabbed her, "Green Willow, wake up!" Don't sleep! I'll take you down the mountain right now. ”
She picked up the green willow and was about to go down the mountain, but the green willow had already fainted, and she was a woman, her feet slipped, and seeing both of them rolling down the mountain, the two figures caught them one after another.
Lin suddenly opened his eyes and saw the boy in Tsing Yi who he met yesterday, "Thank you for helping me again." She left his embrace and stood up.
"You can't go up the mountain like that." This is the first time that the boy in Tsing Yi has opened his mouth and said, "The more you climb to the top, the heavier the miasma." ”
Lin suddenly shook his head stubbornly: "I must go to find Hong Yao, otherwise my brother will be saved." ”
The boy in Tsing Yi hugged her, frowned and said, "Are you crazy?" You're going to die if you go up like this. ”
Lin Yuran still shook his head: "You've already helped me twice, let me be willful once this time!" Gao Lian. ”
"Looks like you already know who I am." The boy in Tsing Yi unveiled his mask, and the face that was revealed was Gao Lian.
"Well, I know who you are when I smell you." Lin suddenly smiled faintly, "Since you already know my personality, you can't stop me." ”
"You can't go up in such a physical condition." Gao Lian stopped her, "There are many organs above, the altitude of Dalian Mountain is getting higher and higher, and it will be more and more difficult to breathe, your girl can't stand it, you have asthma, how can you bear it?" ”
Lin was stunned by what he said, to be honest, she also felt very strange in her heart, her physical condition was fine so far, could it have something to do with her resurrection?
When the two were at a stalemate, Qin An walked to Gao Lian's side and said, "Lord Wang, that maid is suffering from miasma, but she has already taken the antidote, as long as she rests for a while, she will be fine." When Lin suddenly heard what he said, his heart finally settled down, and he was even more determined to climb the mountain.
Gao Lian shook his head helplessly: "Since you insist on going up, I will accompany you." ”
"Huh?" Lin Ran's eyes widened in disbelief.
