Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Most Poisonous
I stood there, not knowing where a palace maid came out, just holding me and scratching, shouting, "You vicious woman! You wicked woman! Miao Wu was just pulling the palace maid the side, and the three of them couldn't pull it off here.
Ah Han was displeased, and scolded: "If you don't drag this palace maid out, the rod will be punished forty!" As he spoke, he stared at the room full of people, and said word by word, "Before the matter is decided, the imperial concubine is still the imperial concubine!" ”
The people standing were frightened and hurriedly agreed. I just stood on the ground and didn't know what to say or do. Whether I care or I am indifferent at the moment, it is a mistake, and I don't know what to do.
Soon Liang Yuer woke up slowly, opened her eyes and saw Ah Han, and burst into tears: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... Concubine, I almost can't see you......"
Ah Han just grabbed her hand and didn't speak, I gently turned my face away.
At this moment, the imperial doctor has also checked that the pastry I sent is poisonous, and everyone looks at me. I looked at Liang Yu'er lightly, full of disappointment and sadness, Liang Yu'er said weakly: "Your Majesty...... The concubine felt ...... My sister was just ...... for a moment I'm lost, spare her......"
Ah Han looked at me and didn't speak, I saw this and asked Liang Yuer on the bed straightforwardly: "You mean I was poisoned?" ”
When everyone saw that I was so arrogant, and I didn't need an honorific title, they all gasped.
When Liang Yu'er saw me asking, she just smiled weakly: "Sister doesn't need to panic...... This...... Forget it......"
I said lightly: "If I really want to kill you, I won't use such a stupid method to dig my own grave!" ”
Ah Han frowned and said, "Xi-Imperial Concubine, speak with respect for the Queen." ”
I smiled and said, "Okay, Queen Mother, you keep saying that I poisoned me, but there is no evidence except for this pastry," I pointed to the plate of dim sum, "This pastry left Chenji Palace and entered your dormitory, and there were so many people you met during this period, why did it point to me?" ”
One of Liang Yu'er's palace maids said sharply: "Apart from the imperial concubine, who else in this palace is closest to the queen's position?" Coveting the queen's throne? ”
I stared at the palace maid and said to Miao Wu, "Give this palace a palm!" ”
Miao Wu stepped forward and slapped the palace maid twice, Liang Yuer pulled Ah Han's sleeve and cried: "Your Majesty ......"
Ah Han stood up abruptly and shouted: "Okay, if there is not enough evidence in this matter, it can't be said that the imperial concubine did it, so it's over!" It's all gone! ”
As soon as I turned around, I heard Liang Yu'er say to Ah Han, "Your Majesty...... Concubines also...... I don't believe it was my sister who did it...... It's just that the concubine alarmed the Tai Hospital...... Such a big move...... If the concubine's grandfather, father, or brother heard...... If you ask...... What to do? ”
I turned around and saw Ah Han also standing on the ground with an expressionless face, and after a long time, I couldn't bear it, so I knelt down and said, "Concubine...... Failure of Virtue...... Self-Invited ...... Grounding yourself. ”
Ah Han didn't answer for a long time, and I begged softly: "Your Majesty! ”
Ah Han sighed and said, "Confining the imperial concubine in the Wutong Courtyard, you can't visit without an edict." ”
I kowtowed: "Concubine Xie Emperor." Then I stood up, and before leaving, I looked into Han's eyes and said softly, "I don't bother to do this." ”
He nodded and said softly, "I know." ”
When I heard this, I smiled, and immediately withdrew with Miao Wu, took Miao Wu back to Chenji Palace to clean up a little soft, and then lived in the small courtyard where Ah Han lived before.
Living here, but also quiet, all things just bring a little, what zither, embroidery did not bring, just brought pen, ink, paper, inkstone and books, practice words to seek calm.
No one is allowed to visit without an edict, and this will is the biggest threshold, which means that no one can enter this courtyard except for Ah Han.
A few days later, I was practicing calligraphy in the yard, and Ah Han came in alone, and I knew that he was coming, so I still wrote quietly, without moving. He just stood next to me and watched, not speaking.
When I finished writing one, I asked, "Did you know I had been to the Imperial Study that day?" ”
Ah Han let out a soft "um", I nodded, dipped the ink, and asked, "You should also know what I saw, is there anything to say to me?" ”
Ah Han said softly: "Xi'er, when you saw it, it was just Liang Yu'er who was just sitting in my arms, and I immediately pushed it away-"
I interrupted, "I see. ”
Ah Han was a little puzzled: "So you believe me?" I have a lot to argue. ”
I nodded and said, "I naturally believe in you and understand you," I stopped and looked at him, "Ah Han, I know how difficult it is to come all the way, I will cherish the time between us, I will not give up easily." ”
I looked at the courtyard and sighed, "I'm not just a petty person, I know the priority of things, and I can understand it." ”
Ah Han looked at me for a long time, and finally hugged me gently and sighed: "Xi'er, how lucky I am." ”
I said softly, "Me too." ”
In the courtyard, the sycamore leaves fell into the ink, one side was dyed black, the other side was still golden, the veins of the leaves were clear, and the fragrance of the trees wafted...... The truth is sometimes the same, it seems so ordinary, but on the contrary, it is full of devastation......
After a long time, I finally understood why the concubine of the cold palace was so tranquil and comfortable, it turned out that people would really precipitate in silence.
Ah Han was hindered by the people in the palace and could not come here often, but in the autumn afternoon, he sent someone to send a brocade box, and when I opened it to see, it was a topaz hairpin, carved into the shape of a sycamore leaf, which could be placed on the tree to make it real.
How do I not know what it means? It's just that I secretly thank Ah Han for his thoughtfulness and meticulousness here.
Miao Wu is also full of joy, seeing this hairpin, her hanging heart has also let go a lot, these days I am afraid that I will be harmed by the power of the Liang family in the court.
As the sycamore trees fall in autumn, I sat under the tree and thought about it, only to find that I had already spent many years here, and before I knew it, it was another year.
An old aunt is Ah Han's closest confidant, and she always brings me food every day, and I feel guilty for bothering this old man running around every day.
This aunt didn't mind, and still came over every day.
The first day of the new year was the day when the emperor and queen slept together, and I forgot the day in the grounding, and later on, my aunt came to deliver something. I was reading a book, and I asked with a lot of mouth, "What is the emperor doing today?" ”
The aunt was in a dilemma, and said for a while: "If you go back to the imperial concubine, the emperor is at the queen's mother." ”
I closed the book, counted the days, and sure enough, it was the first day of the new year, so I couldn't even pretend to be a smirk, but said lightly: "I see." ”
My aunt saw that Miao Wu was not there, so she hesitated a few times before quietly saying to me: "Niangniang also misunderstood the emperor too much. ”
I looked up and wondered, "Where did you start with that?" What has Hongu done? ”
The aunt sighed: "Our emperor hasn't even touched the finger of the queen's mother, the old slave watched the emperor grow up, what do you know?" Niangniang, you ......" said and sighed, "Niangniang, the old slave also knows that you are wronged, but who can be wronged by the emperor?" He was already annoyed that there was the Liang family in the court, and the two concubines in the harem were not allowed to live in peace. ”
I also sighed, didn't say anything, the aunt was eyes were red, said: "On the morning of the wedding, I saw that there was no round house, and I was scolded by the queen mother I didn't know what it looked like," I watched my aunt cry, hurriedly comforted, and asked her to sit down, my aunt couldn't refuse, sat down and said, "Niangniang, don't blame the old slave, the old slave treats the emperor, and says a big disrespectful word, just like treating his own son, and it is a pleasure to see that the emperor has an heir." It's just that when he got married that year, the emperor told the old slave that there would only be one girl in his life. ”
I sat next to me and didn't speak, and when the aunt saw that I didn't speak, she said sincerely: "In the end, that person is you, Niangniang, but why are you and the emperor always awkward?" ”
I just smiled and said lightly, "I-Bengu doesn't know either." ”
The aunt sighed: "The old slave knows that this incident was done by the queen mother, no wonder," she looked at me and said, "The queen mother tried her best to change the way to envelop the emperor, but it was not as good as your careless words." The queen is also a poor person in the harem. ”
I sighed, "I didn't know it would be because I made her like this." ”
The aunt also said: "If you can't get it, you can't be a reason to hurt people, no matter what, the queen mother has done something wrong, and the mother doesn't have to worry about people like her." ”
I watched the fallen leaves flutter and asked, "Auntie, do you say that people change themselves because of their desire for power, fame, and wealth?" ”
The aunt replied after a long time: "Yes, the old slave has lived in this palace for so many years and has seen too many such people, just Niangniang," she looked at me seriously and said, "The old slave wants to say something for the emperor that he didn't say, people will change, people's hearts will change, and love will not change." ”
I just looked at the falling leaves for a long time, and my aunt sighed: "The emperor is hindered by a lot of obstacles, and he can't give you too many promises, it's just-"
A fallen leaf fell on the placket of my aunt's clothes, and my aunt picked it up and said, "The old slave once saw that the emperor treasured such a yellow sycamore leaf, which was regarded as a treasure. ”
When I heard this, I suddenly remembered that many years ago, when I played the piano in the other courtyard, the sycamore leaves on my hair were taken down by Ah Han.
My aunt looked at the fallen leaves and muttered, "The old slave said a lot of disrespectful things today. ”
I smiled faintly and said, "My aunt told a lot of truths. ”
My aunt stood up tremblingly and said, "Those who tell the truth in this world deserve to die," she said and saluted me, but turned around and said to me, "The old slave advises Niangniang, those who achieve great things are not informal, and they will succeed in ten thousand bones, and there are some things, Niangniang does not have to be serious." ”
I was wondering, my aunt had already gone out, and I had to give up.
