Chapter 4: The Big Lie 4
Qingluan looked sideways slightly, the queen's crimson beads just hung down on her forehead, and that eye-catching vermilion lined the whole person luxuriously and indescribably. It is not easy for this sentence to come out of her mouth, the Xiang concubine is not the former Xiang concubine, and the queen is the former queen. Qingluan smiled and only obeyed the order.
"You are tired, go with me. I'll come back to see you later when I'm done reading the recital. ”
The two of them came out hand in hand, like an ordinary husband and wife in the world. Yu Hao is rarely so affectionate, and his sudden doting is always unexpected. Qingluan didn't have to look back, and she knew that everyone in the hall would crush their silver teeth, and the more she was light, the more no one would dare to speculate.
The humiliation of defeat will never be forgotten, she has endured it for a long time, and it is time to reckoning.
When I returned to Liuyue Pavilion, someone had already come to greet me.
The windows are bright and spotless. The pomegranate flowers blooming silently under the pavilion, the fragrant purple orchid in the courtyard, the flowers are in full bloom, and everything is as beautiful as a new life. Every grass and tree in the Liuyue Pavilion was taken care of, and even the ink paint on the stone platform was re-uniform.
Qingluan felt emotional, but saw that the people kneeling at the bottom of the stairs were all laughing and crying. However, in the bustling pavilion in the past, now only the incense is left, returning to the deer, Xiaofuzi and Xiaohezi. She was slightly stunned, even though she knew that the height of the Dao Palace was much lower, she still couldn't help but blurt out: "There are only a few of you." ”
Xiao Fuzi was clever, afraid that Qingluan would be worried, so he hurriedly said: "Even if there are only a few slaves left, the little master will serve properly." ”
"Those who are left are the first to follow you. A few older ones were assigned away before the little lord returned to the palace. Su E was also relieved to see them, "When you were in the prayer hall, they also had a hard time. ”
He is in such a situation, not to mention the subordinates who stay in the cabinet. She caught a glimpse of Guilu's hand injury, and after questioning, she realized that she had a verbal altercation with Concubine Zhuang's subordinate Shuangqiu when she received winter clothes from the Internal Affairs Office, and was beaten like this. Concubine Zhuang was originally on an equal footing with herself, but because she was not favored by the saints, she had to return to the deer and suffer the anger of her minions.
Qingluan forced the hatred in his heart and said: "In the past, you followed me, a cowardly and easy deceit, and suffered a lot. But now that I have returned, I cannot tolerate such things any longer. The palace people suddenly heard Qingluan speak in such a tone, and they were all surprised and delighted. Then he saw the women come forward, and lifted up the salute one by one. "Whether they are gone, those who serve me must not blindly climb the high branches."
Seeing Qingluan change so drastically, although the palace people were surprised, they also knew that she was much more reliable than before. Su E helped her into the house, and saw that the decorations were all the same as if she had just left. On the soft couch, a book of Yishan poems, the indigo poetry skin was wiped without staining the dust. The red leaves in the book have long been withered and turned into powder, but they are still left in the section that they read before going to the palace.
The house is burning with Suhe incense, which is light and elegant, and the fragrance is the most pleasant. The cloth surface of the golden silk finch stretched under the wooden pavilion is a quiet silk that wants to embroider well when you have nothing to do. A few peach petals hang down on the wooden platform, and at some point, the fragrance of scattered flowers will waft from under the eaves. The light shone brightly, reflecting on her porcelain-like face, stirring up a circle of white aura.
Su E helped the lid of the somewhat crooked Rui Beast celadon incense burner, and his face was also nostalgic. Thinking that he had nothing to do at that time, Qingluan always made some novel spices and added them to the furnace. Suddenly the fragrance fills the room, and suddenly it is intense and rich. Every time the Son of Heaven came, he asked with joy about the spices he prepared today, and before he knew it, so much time had passed.
The woman sat in front of the bronze mirror, and through the clean carved wooden mirror, she could clearly see her emaciated cheeks. The skin was already slightly yellow, and the originally full body was now as if it was hanging in a wide robe, as abrupt as nothing.
He sighed and said, "Su E, look, I'm so thin and shocking, I even get tired of seeing it." ”
"The little master is stunning, but he has lost some weight, and he will be able to redress your makeup with a slave maid, and he will definitely be able to look new."
She smiled coldly, and there was a hint of murderous intent between her eyebrows: "Seeing that I have fallen into this situation, it is no wonder that they all think that I can't turn over, and they dare to bully me." ”
"The little master is back now, and some people are afraid."
"It's just that I can come back this time, but what if the emperor really shows affection to me next time." Qingluan suddenly felt a little depressed, and unintentionally fiddled with the purple jade beads in front of the stage with one hand, "As the saying goes, your heart is unpredictable, not to mention that I can't escape from his side." ”
Hearing this, Su E stopped the work in his hand, walked behind Qingluan to straighten her shoulders, looked directly at the beauty in the mirror and said word by word: "The little lord sees that although the queen is down, who dares to bully her like this." In this palace, only by standing on your feet can you stand tall and not fall. In the end, the little master was still weak in his family background. She paused, and then said: "The slave knows that the little master and the prince are in love, but the far water can't save the near fire, and if you take a wrong step, both of you will be in danger of your life." This harem is turbulent, and only he has been able to save himself. ”
As soon as Qingluanfu raised his head, he saw the woman's eyes burning, and he had thousands of feelings for a while. "Thank you, Su E, for always mentioning me like this."
"The slave and maid only hope for the good of the little master, so they have nothing more." She picked up the amber-encrusted silver comb again, and carefully opened the woman's black hair, "The emperor is coming, let the slave maid comb for you." ”
The flame of the red candle gradually weakened, and only a little light and shadow reflected the woman in front of the window.
Qingluan bowed on this day, and he was already tired. After waiting for two more hours, I still didn't see the Son of Heaven coming, and sleepiness hit like a river and a sea, one hand on the jade case, and when I didn't sleep much, I suddenly felt a chill on my body. It was cold in early spring, and I didn't close the window, and the night wind blew slowly, and the heat gradually dispersed on my body.
In a trance, who took the wooden bamboo used for the window, and the woman whispered half-asleep: "Is the emperor here?" ”
She was responded with a gentle kiss that landed on her eyebrows. "I'm coming."
It's already a sub-hour.
The man in front of him was dressed in a bright yellow and gold nine-dragon robe, and the water pattern and blue beads inlaid on it were particularly dazzling in the night. She helped her loose bun, and a few strands of green silk hung down on her neck, adding a bit of charm. "The emperor told the concubines to wait."
"I can't wait to see you soon, it's just that the Queen Mother is going to be big, and there are too many things to deal with."
"The concubine ordered a supper, and this will be passed on."
So he asked someone to turn on the lamp again, and the room was bright. A few dishes were served in turn, honey white meat, wrapped jujube meat, three-color gauze cake, crystal tofu, and a cup of crushed jade black chicken soup, all of which Yu Hao liked. The dish glows white and shiny in the light and shadow, which makes people move their fingers when they see it.
