Yang Xi woke up from his dream. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It's been a long time since she's dreamed of the past. Those painful pasts, she would rather forget from beginning to end.
This is Yuxiu Palace, her own dormitory, she blinked, and gradually came to her senses, there were still candles burning in the hall, and it was pitch black outside the window, and even the sky was not bright.
Mama Fang was sitting on the edge of the bed, drying her clothes, and the light and candle fell on her face, which was extremely soft.
Yang Xi sat up suddenly: "Queen Mother, how is the Queen Mother!" ”
Mama Fang hurriedly hugged her and patted her gently to reassure: "It's okay, Your Highness, the queen mother is fine, it's just that the blood doesn't return to the menstrual period, and she coughed up blood." ”
Her voice was soft, like soothing a frightened child with nightmares. "Just now, Aunt Lian has passed the news that the queen's condition has stabilized, let Her Royal Highness rest for a while."
It was the first time Yang Xi heard Mama Fang speak so softly, and she spoke very carefully and respectfully on weekdays.
Not really.
At least in her previous life, when she was a child, Mama Fang also talked to her like this, like a mother.
She leaned on Mama Fang's shoulder and whispered, "Don't lie." Mama Fang's voice was a little choked: "Don't lie to people, the slave will never lie to His Highness." ”
Yang Xi breathed a deep sigh of relief - the queen mother is still alive, and it is the best to be alive.
She looked left and right: "Yuan Lie...... Did you go back? Mama Fang put on a robe for her: "Yuan Gongzi has returned to the East Palace, and he is not good to stay for a long time." ”
Yang Xi got up, went to the door, and looked from afar, the direction of Wanshou Palace was still brightly lit.
Five watches. The first light of the new year is coming.
How many people couldn't sleep that night.
But she can't, she can't rest yet.
Qingyan came in with a hot water basin, saw Yang Xi awake, and bowed half-kneeling: "Your Highness, do you want to wash your face?" ”
Yang Xi nodded, returned to the bed, Qingyan twisted the face towel, lowered his head and carefully wiped Yang Xi's face.
She remembered all the things in her dream, looked up and asked Mama Fang, "Do you know who Xi'er is?" ”
Mama Fang was stunned for a moment, "Xi'er, isn't Xi'er your maiden name, Your Highness?" ”
No, Yang Xi said firmly in her heart that although her name was Yang Xi, her father and queen mother never called her "Xi'er".
They only called her peace.
She looked down at Qingyan and remembered one thing: "What is Tang Meiren doing here?" Qingyan lowered her hand and bowed and said: "Tang Meiren came to give His Majesty the embroidered picture, and asked about the lily porridge, I said that Your Majesty is in the Qianqing Palace." ”
Qingyan pursed her lips, even if Tang Meiren found His Majesty, His Majesty's mood at the moment, Tang Meiren would not be pleased.
She looked up, but was startled.
Princess An Ning looked straight at her, as if she had been robbed of her soul: "She asked you about lily porridge?" ”
Qingyan was a little flustered, knelt down, and heard Princess An Ning repeat again: "She asked you about lily porridge." "It seems to have a taste of gnashing of teeth.
Yang Xi slowly clenched her hands, she was afraid that the things of the year would be repeated, so she ordered Aunt Lian early to stop giving food to the palaces.
The other palace concubines didn't come to ask, but she came to ask.
Tang Meiren was awakened by the sound of the front hall of Anling Palace. The heavier the days of pregnancy, the harder it is for her to sleep. She hugged the quilt, her belly was a little big, and it was very difficult to get up. The palace maid on night sat on the steps of the bed and seemed to be awakened, rubbing her eyes and going to the door to investigate.
Tang Meiren thought to herself, could it be that His Majesty sent someone to pick her up?
Remembering that she was stopped at Wanshou Palace and Qianqing Palace at night, and she didn't get any news, she had already sent Bai Su to find out the news. But Bai Su has not come back until now.
"Bang-" The door suddenly opened, and the little palace maid was knocked to the side.
A man walked in in the moonlight, his face hidden in the backlit darkness, his long hair flying, and he wore only a thin dress, like a desperate ghost from the abyss.
Tang Meiren was startled, screamed and hid in the bed. "Who, who's there."
"Tang Beauty." Deep gaze, cold tone. She stepped forward step by step: "Don't you recognize me?" ”
Her face finally fell under the light, and Yang Xi stood there barefoot, with black hair and a shawl, and her face pale.
Tang Meiren stubbornly protected the child in her belly: "Your Royal Highness Princess, what do you want to do?" ”
Yang Xi's eyes fell on the little palace maid who fell on the ground: "Get out." The little palace maid hesitated for a moment, and then ran out with a rolling belt.
The door was closed behind him, and the hall fell into darkness again, and Tang Meiren saw a palace maid walking out behind Yang Xi.
Yang Xi smiled darkly: "Who are the beauties waiting for?" ”
Tang Meiren trembled violently in this darkness.
Qingyan let go of his hand and threw out a burden, which rolled down to the corner of the bed, revealing a bloody human head.
The screams passed through the courtyard and into the ears of everyone in the courtyard.
Mama Fang stood in the courtyard, facing the other concubines living in Anling Palace, bowing and saluting, but her attitude was very arrogant: "It's just that the queen wants to send something to Tang Meiren, so she sent Princess Anning to come, and the ladies can rest with peace of mind." ”
The concubines looked at each other, and the posture of the little princess who walked in just now was not a gift.
The eldest in Anling Palace is only Zhao Jieyu, and the highest status is only Zhang Zhaoyi, the two have fallen out of favor for many years, and they can only see the emperor at the banquet. In the entire Anling Palace, only the favored Tang Meiren was pregnant, and later they didn't dare to provoke her, so they gave up the main hall to Tang Meiren to live.
Every day, looking at the things rewarded from the Qianqing Palace, they are also becoming more and more jealous, looking forward to the day when Tang Meiren can fall from a high place and break her bones. The concubines have always liked you to step on me and I will step on you, and they are happy to watch jokes.
The two glanced at each other, no one dared to say anything, let alone provoke the most favored little princess, and led the remaining low-grade concubines to hurry back: "Mama has worked hard." ”
Mama Fang clapped her hands a few times, and several palace maids stepped forward with a brocade box: "The queen is sympathetic to a few ladies who take care of Tang beauties here, and also rewarded things, come, send them to your mother's house." ”
Only then did the concubines sincerely thank them, and they all took the hands of their personal palace maids back to the house, lest they stay and cause trouble.
Mama Fang stood in the middle of the courtyard, staring at everyone returning to the house and turning off the lights. Mo Xin walked slowly through the door, his hands still tucked into his sleeves, but a few drops of red blood stained on his white-soled shoes.
"All the people who went out to report the news have been dealt with?" Mama Fang asked coldly.
Mo Xin lowered his head, as if there was something on the ground that he needed to pick up: "Mo Xin is on business, Mama don't worry." ”
Mama Fang's eyes were condensed, and she stood elegantly in this exquisite palace with her hands crossed, and she was surprised that she had been in this palace for more than twenty years.
From a small palace maid, she slowly climbed to the position of Shanggong and accompanied the most noble princess of Daliang.
The east is white, half of the sky is still dark, but half of the sky is gradually clear, and you can see stratus clouds like mountains, and the sea of clouds is surging.
A new killing has just begun.
