74, planting
I was startled, I didn't expect that I was isolated at this time, and the girl I brought was still so unlucky, and Xu Yunhua's palace maids hurriedly helped Chu'er up, Xu Yunhua also patted his chest as if frightened, and stepped back, "Oh, I'm scared to death, this kid, why is he so angry?" It seems that the powerful concubines are very good at conditioning the girls, and all of them are very individual. ”
I didn't bother to pay attention to Xu Yunhua at this time, and took Chu'er to say goodbye and returned to the palace, Xu Yunhua saw that Chu'er's face was pale, and he didn't dare to keep us longer, so he also sent a few people to send us except Kunning Palace. Back in Lianyi Palace, Zhu'er pinched people again, fed chili pepper water, and Chu'er finally woke up. As soon as I woke up and saw that I had returned to the Lianyi Palace, I opened my voice and cried, I patted her head and whispered, "Don't cry." ”
Chu'er sobbed and asked, "Niangniang, what's wrong with Sister Bao'er?" Was the assassin captured by the Guards last night actually Sister Bo'er? ”
Chu'er is trained by Bao'er, although she is often scolded and reprimanded by Bao'er, but the friendship between master and apprentice is very deep, because of her young age, Bao'er is almost like a mother to take care of her daily life, originally hidden from her, I am not because I can not rest assured of her, but because I am afraid that her villain will be frightened, now it seems that I can't hide it, so I had to tell her how Bao'er went out of the palace and how to seek medical advice for me and the princess.
There were clear tears in her eyes, "I know, it's the queen mother who is embarrassing you, the concubine, and Sister Bao'er is in danger in order to protect the mother." ”
Her simple words made Zhu'er and I wipe away tears, and no one knew how to answer her. Seeing that we were so negative, Chu'er was so anxious that she was about to sit up, "I went to confess my guilt to the queen's mother, and I said that I asked Bao'er's sister to go out of the palace to do errands." ”
I smiled bitterly, "Silly girl, at this time, it is useless for me to go and say that I sent her out." I took her hand, "You are a good boy, don't worry, I will definitely think of your sister Bao'er out." She is more important to me than she is to you. ”
Although Chu'er got my assurance, she was still very sad. In the afternoon, Xu Yunhua sent someone to call me again, saying that the interrogation of Bao'er had a result, I was shocked, I thought that she didn't make a big fuss in the morning, it turned out to be waiting for the current work, Chu'er was just angry, drank a bowl of sugar water at noon, ate some cakes, and was almost as good as she was young, I didn't dare to let her go with me again, but she strongly asked to see Bao'er. I really couldn't, I was afraid that she was too young to hold on, so I had to hand over the crescent moon to the nurse and let Zhu'er go with her.
When I arrived at Kunning Palace, as I expected, Xu Yunhua had already laid out all the layouts---- because at this time, Kunning Palace was already full of concubines, all of whom looked like they were judging the situation, and when they saw me enter the palace, there were a few people who were still good on weekdays and bowed slightly, and other qualifications were slightly older, but they nodded, and even Wanfu was not uncommon to do it with me. Fortunately, I didn't care very much, walked up to Xu Yunhua and knelt on the ground.
At this time, it was the time for others to fall into the well, but when I was asking for help, how could I recognize this tone, and admit that the small clothes were low and gave Xu Yunhua a big gift. "I don't know what the queen has to call her concubines to?"
Xu Yunhua looked down at her nails, which had a bright red Kodan on it, which was dazzling, the same as her face. She didn't even raise her eyes, and said lightly, "I have already called you here once in the morning, and all sisters may know that last night, there was an assassin in our palace, but fortunately, this assassin was caught by my younger brother Xu Huizu, the head of the imperial guard, and interrogated for half the night and one morning, and now the truth is revealed." ”
"Huh? Assassin? Last night I heard a noise outside, because I was dazed and didn't look at it, is there really an assassin? So are we in danger now? A few timid concubines grabbed their handkerchiefs and covered their faces with some fear and asked.
Xu Yunhua smiled kindly, "Nonsense! Lang Lang Qiankun, how can you allow villains to do trouble! Besides, this is the royal palace! All the guards are selected by a thousand hammers, how can we be in danger? ”
"That'...... How could any Assassin break in? ”
Xu Yunhua picked up the cup next to him, and put it down heavily, making a sonorous crisp sound, everyone was shocked, knowing that Xu Yunhua was angry and was about to serve the queen's shelf, they left their seats one after another, and knelt on the ground in the dark, "The queen is angry!" ”
Xu Yunhua's face flushed, "Why did an assassin break in?" Why did an Assassin break in? She stood up, stretched out an index finger, and pointed to the people underground, "We people, all of whom are the emperor's concubines, to put it bluntly, are the emperor's women, the emperor is not in the palace at this time, we should abide by women's morals more than the women outside, maintain the dignity of the royal family, even if you don't have these messy things, you must also control your own girls!" Now that there is such a defilement of the palace, if it spreads, how can the royal face remain? Where is the emperor's face?! ”
Everyone was stunned, not knowing who Xu Yunhua was alluding to when he was referring to Sang and scolding Huai, "Forgive us for being stupid, can the queen mother make it clear, what does this mean?"
Xu Yunhua clapped his hands, and there were two guards outside the palace who dragged in a woman with a cloak and scars, I pinched my fingers and closed my eyes slightly, it was Bao'er, the weather in Sanjiu, all the coats on her body were stripped off, and only a set of white clothes were left to cover her shame, and the white clothes were stained with blood.
Because she was as strong as Bao'er, she was like being cramped at this time, slumped on the ground, trembling, and protected her chest with her hands.
Chu'er exclaimed, "Sister Bao'er! "I was pulled by Zhu'er.
Xu Yunhua looked at Chu'er, walked up to her, and asked, "Do you know her?" But the deacon palace maid in the palace of the noble concubine Lianyi, Bao'er? ”
Chu'er trembled and didn't dare to speak. Everyone sighed, "She's an assassin?" ”
Xu Yunhua walked back to his seat and sat down, and said, "That's right, she is the assassin she caught last night, but now you can't say that she is an assassin." ”
The guards beside Bao'er threw out a few blood-stained things from their arms, and everyone stretched out their heads to take a look, and when they saw it, they all retracted their heads again, frowned and said in disgust, "What dirty things, take them here too?" ”
Those few bloody things are a few Spring Palace bags and Spring Palace pamphlets. Bao'er lay on the ground, opened her chapped lips, and said in a weak voice, "These things are not my ......"
"Oh? Not yours? The guards searched you out, and if it wasn't yours, did the guards rely on you? If it's not yours, then what is your adventure to leak out of the palace for? Xu Yunhua's eyes were sharp, and although he was standing in front of Bao'er, he stared at me directly.
Bao'er snorted, but because of the extreme cold and pain, she couldn't speak, and her two lips didn't know whether they were beaten, or frozen, and turned purple. I said to Xu Yunhua, "Queen Mother, the matter has not been tried clearly, Bao'er has not admitted the crime, she is still a member of the harem, there are now full of concubines here, and there are men present, put on a dress for her, otherwise, the royal face will be damaged from now on." ”
Xu Yunhua looked at me sullenly, didn't reply, and glanced at the maid beside her, who slowly took a blanket from the couch and threw it on Bao'er's back, Bao'er hugged the blanket and looked at me with tears in her eyes, but the look was firm and calm, which made me more and more worried.
I know that the commander of the Imperial Forest Army is Xu Yunhua's second brother, he must have obeyed his sister's arrangement, and now these spring palaces are installed on Bao'er's head, even if Zhu Di is here, we can't get rid of it. was thinking about how to solve it, but I saw Chu'er kneeling on the ground with a grunt, kowtowing to Xu Yunhua violently, kowtowing more than ten times in a row, with a bruise on his forehead, and blood oozing out, before crying and saying, "Queen Mother Mingjian, Queen Mother Mingjian, Sister Bao'er is not guilty, those spring palace pictures are mine, they are all slaves." ”
Xu Yunhua, like me, didn't expect to suddenly kill such a small thing, and smiled coldly, "You? Where did you get those things? Besides, how did your stuff end up on her? ”
Chu'er lay on the ground, crying silently, but she spoke eloquently, "The slave and maid misbehaved and had an affair with a man outside the palace, so there are these things, Sister Bao'er once served as the emperor's personal guard, and she has martial arts, because she couldn't help the slave and maid to stalk, she promised to send a love token for the slave and maid, and she didn't know what I and the lover were transmitting." ”
Bao'er tears flowed down, and she didn't argue anything, just looked at Chu'er and didn't speak, I didn't expect Chu'er to have such a backbone, she dared to take all the blame on herself at a young age, as soon as she said this, no matter how Xu Yunhua convicted her, she was hopeless in her life, I looked at Chu'er, I couldn't help but feel guilty, she had the heart to save Bao'er, although it was reckless, after all, I didn't dare. I've had so many strains that I'll never be able to do this.
Xu Yunhua glared at the guards, "Are you all tied up?" This girl has reported her own obscenity, don't you want to do it, wait for me to do it? ”
Several guards immediately tied up Chu'er, although Chu'er trembled with fear, but her face was satisfied, but when she saw that she was tied up, Bao'er was not released, and she couldn't help but be anxious, "Queen Mother, the slave has confessed, and it really has nothing to do with Sister Bao'er, why don't you let her go?" ”
As soon as Xu Yunhua frowned, one of her maids stepped forward and stretched out her hand to slap Chu'er, "What, you still want to threaten the queen mother?" You confessed your guilt and didn't distinguish between the true and the false, how could you decide that Bao'er was innocent? Not to mention that those dirty things haven't figured out who it is, it's really not hers, as a deacon and palace maid in the first palace, it is also a big crime to pass on this kind of thing privately! ”
Chu'er collapsed and cried out, Bao'er looked at her, and then at me, her eyes were full of despair, and she shook her head, I knew she was warning me not to come in again.
I shook my lips and said to Xu Yunhua, "Since it has not been cleared up, these two people are my people, I have to say a word for them, if the investigation is true, please ask the queen mother to punish the harem, if the investigation is wrong, these two people are insulted today, I will seek justice for them in the future." ”
Xu Yunhua smacked his lips, "Why, on such a big event, the powerful concubine not only doesn't blame herself at all, but also dares to intimidate and threaten the palace first?" ”
"The concubine doesn't dare." I respectfully kowtowed to Xu Yunhua.
Xu Yunhua waved his hand, "That's it, my illness has not been cured yet, so many sisters, they have all watched this ugly drama here today, these two girls, even if they have no other faults, they are guilty of staining everyone's eyes!" Take them back for a good trial, I'm afraid that there will be anyone involved, and no one will be spared! When Xu Yunhua said this, she glanced at me with her eyes, but I ignored it, and she said, "All of you also have a long memory, don't raise such a goblin in your own palace!" If you do it again, you will be punished heavily! Today, the power and punishment of the concubine have no way to teach, the control is unfavorable, the ban is half a month, and the punishment is two months! Let's go back. ”
Everyone was sneering, although there were people who wanted to see my jokes, but most of them still felt that their lips were cold and they were very jealous, and they didn't laugh anymore. The entire harem seems to be shrouded in a haze.
Back in Lianyi Palace, I couldn't bear it anymore, and hammered the table a few times, until my hand was bleeding, Zhu'er grabbed me, and said urgently, "Niangniang, you can't give up on yourself like this, isn't this the day the queen is waiting?" I want to bring you down before the emperor comes back, and after the emperor comes back, I will whitewash the peace, and then our Lianyi Palace will no longer exist, she will still be beautiful, are you willing? ”
I said angrily, "What can I do if I'm not reconciled! She's got me two now, and I've been grounded, and I can't do anything. ”
"Wait for Master Li to send the letter out. There will definitely be a way. Zhu'er said calmly, "Also, the current situation does not allow us to give up on ourselves, so go and see the princess!" ”
I panicked, busy day, full of heart on Bao'er, I almost forgot the crescent, walked to the bed to see, the crescent moon in the nurse's arms tightly closed eyes, because the fever has been continuous in the past few days, the diet does not need us to clear at all, she herself can no longer eat anything, but a few days, the original bulging face has slimmed down.
My heart ached, and I finally hugged her and cried helplessly. About the same mother and daughter, the crescent moon heard my crying, and soon woke up, babbling and crying.
"It's all your mother who broke you, and it's all your mother's fault." I looked at the crescent moon with self-reproach, and my fingernails almost dug into my palms. Knowing this, Furu still left her in the Li Mansion at that time, and she didn't have to suffer such pain.
Zhu'er shed tears and said, "Niangniang, don't blame us, it's the queen's mother who is too scheming, and we have no way to force us here step by step." ”<
