Chapter 137: Watching the Fire from the Other Shore
The chariot to the Yuhuatai of the Imperial Palace set off from the Glass Palace. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Su Dai lay on the couch of the carriage on her side, holding her chin with one hand and pretending to sleep, the carriage swaying so that her sideburns made a loud sound.
"What did Hua Qing say?"
Zhi Yan gently fanned for her, and a cool breeze blew through, dissipating the heat in the carriage, "Niangniang, before leaving, he has already arranged it." ”
"The opportunity is delivered to her, if she can't grasp it, then it has nothing to do with this palace."
"It's just that this time it doesn't necessarily mean that the beggar concubine will be completely planted."
Su Dai chuckled: "Then pull out the minions sent to her one by one." ”
Zhen Yan smiled: "What Niang Niang said is that the slave maid has already arranged people, and she will send it over as soon as there is news." ”
Su Dai lazily agreed: "Well, then I will watch the fire from the other side." After saying that, she lay down on the soft couch and said softly, "I want to sleep for a while." ”
"Yes."
At the beginning of summer, the scorching sun bakes the red brick-lined Ligong like a large steamer, and the leaves on the treetops are wilted by the sun, and the leaves are listless with the leaves. Most of the palace people in the Ligong went to Yuhuatai with the holy driver, and only a few palace people remained in each palace, and the concubines of the six palaces except for the low-level concubines who were not favored all the year round had not yet accompanied them, and the concubines with the highest rank were Concubine Zhuang. However, Concubine Zhuang has always lived in a simple house and has not heard about palace affairs, so in the past two months, the affairs of the harem of Ligong have been temporarily managed by Wen Zhaoyi.
Wen Zhaoyi stayed in the Ligong this time because of the second prince's illness, afraid that the bumpy road would aggravate the second prince's condition. And Ye Xiaoyi, because of the previous miscarriage, has not yet been raised, so she stayed in the Ligong, and then there is Naren Toya, who made a mistake and is still in the grounding period, so naturally she can't go to Yuhuatai with her.
"Princess, the slave is gone." Tao Ruge carefully put the letter in his hand into his arms and said in a low voice.
Naren Toya also looked a little nervous, and instructed: "Mama be careful in everything. ”
"Slave and maid remember."
After Tao Ruge left, Naren Toya has been fidgeting, always feeling that something bad is about to happen in a trance, thinking about it, her heart is as relieved as if she has hung a stone, she lifted her skirt and knelt on the ground and prayed in a low voice: "Immortal Heaven is above, Naren Toya is here to pray to the gods to protect Ujurqin." ”
Naoribu looked at her, and his heart was nervous.
I don't know how long later, the sun outside the house gradually sank in the west, and the dim light and shadow shrouded the entire palace, and Naren Toya was shocked to realize that it was already twilight, and Naoribu hurriedly lit the candles in the house, and in an instant, the room was as bright as day.
"Why has Mama been gone for so long?" Naren Toya kept looking out, her hands and feet trembling violently, and her heart seemed to hang in the air.
Naoribu had the heart to comfort her, but the current situation was indeed a little weird, could something really happen?
"Naoribu, go and take a look."
"Yes." Naurib agreed, and walked out of the house with a skirt and a hurry.
Naren Toya stared at the candle flame on the table in a daze, the jumping fire light was reflected in her bright eyes, and the tears of the red candle slipped down drop by drop, and slowly lowered her body as time passed. She sat there like this, her thoughts turning back and forth.
I don't know how long it took, but I heard a rush of footsteps outside, mixed with Naoribu's low shout, "Princess, it's not good, something happened." ”
Naren Toya sighed in her heart, and the big stone in her heart no longer hung there, but sank into the bottom of the darkness.
"Princess, no...... Oh no......" Naoribu said intermittently as he held on to the door frame with one hand and his stomach with the other, and the sound of panting reached Naren Toya's ears, which was extremely harsh.
"What the hell is going on? You're talking! Naren Toya asked in a loud voice.
Naoribu trotted all the way back, couldn't breathe for a while, and held on to the door frame for a while before continuing: "When the slave arrived, Mama happened to be taken away, and the slave didn't dare to hesitate, so she came back immediately to report to the princess. ”
Naren Toya asked eagerly, "Who took Grandma Tao Ruge away?" ”
Naoribu was dumbfounded, she patronized and came back to report, but forgot to find out who had taken Mama away.
Naren Toya was very anxious in her heart, but she looked at Naoribu speechless, and suddenly raised her hand and slapped her, "Useless thing!" ”
Naoribu covered the beaten cheek and didn't dare to speak.
Naren Toya sat back on the Luohan bed, her hands trembling and trembling, only to feel that her throat was dry, and she picked up the tea cup on the table, but her trembling hands could not hold the tea cup steadily, and there was a noise between the cups, as if she was laughing at her panic at this time.
She didn't know who took Tao Ruge away, and she didn't know if the letter had fallen into the hands of those people, she was just a princess of Uzhuerqin who had just entered the palace for more than a month, and she was not very familiar with the rules of the Great Chu Palace, she didn't know what kind of crime would be punished if such a letter was seen by His Majesty.
She sat on the Luohan bed without saying a word, but her mind kept thinking about how to get out.
Now it is Wen Zhaoyi who governs the six palaces, she offended the virtuous concubine before, and heard that Wen Zhaoyi is the person of the virtuous concubine, so if the letter falls into the hands of Wen Zhaoyi, Wen Zhaoyi will definitely not speak for her.
"Princess." Naoribu looked at her in a daze for a long time and didn't speak, and couldn't help but speak softly.
"Do what?" Naren Toya said impatiently.
"The princess is still grounded, and she is not allowed to step out of the palace without an edict."
"I know!" Naren Tuoya was even more irritable in her heart, she naturally knew that she was grounded, and she was not allowed to take half a step out of Changxin Palace without being summoned, and so on, she was not allowed to take half a step out of Changxin Palace, but Concubine Zhuang lived in the main hall of Changxin Palace, and she was half a level higher than Wen Zhaoyi.
Thinking of this, Naren Toya suddenly stood up from the Luohan bed, and Naoribu was startled by her, and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with the princess?" ”
Naren Toya ignored her, put on her shoes and walked out, but Naoribu did not understand what she meant, so she had to follow in unison.
When they arrived at the main hall of Changxin Palace, a little palace maid stopped Naren Tuoya, lowered her voice and said, "The little lord stays." ”
"I'm tired of passing it on for me, I have something to see Concubine Zhuang."
The little palace maid bowed to her and walked into the hall, and after a while, she saw Dill walking out of her face with a smile on her face, and bowed to Naren Toya: "The slave and maid meet the little master of the beggar concubine." ”
Naren Tuoya took off the gold bracelet on her wrist and stuffed it into her, and said in a low voice: "Aunt Dill, my aunt is tired, and I am tired of passing it on for me, I have something to see Concubine Zhuang." ”
Dill lowered her eyebrows and smiled, quietly stuffed the gold bracelet in her hand back into her hand, and the corners of her lips stared at the corner of her lips with a polite smile: "It's not that the slave doesn't help the little master, it's really that Concubine Zhuang is weak and never pays attention to the things on the side, please go back, little master." ”
Naren Toya grabbed her sleeve and said with a pleading expression: "Please help my aunt, in the future, I will not forget my aunt's kindness." (To be continued.) )
