Chapter Ninety-Six: Returning the Pipa

The emperor married the concubine, the concubine married, the emperor asked the concubine to go to the battlefield, the concubine went to the battlefield, the emperor no longer loved the concubine, and the concubine stood in the corner, silently watching his passing. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info this is a lady. But what about Moyu?

Mo Yu lifted the quilt, stepped out of bed, and paced to the window to stand side by side with him, watching the sun gradually set. There are already people in the courtyard who are busy holding the lights, and little by little the candlelight illuminates the world, and a large piece of candlelight illuminates the entire courtyard.

The emperor turned around, looked at her beside him, and said, "If you like it, then stand behind me and let me protect you, but you can't deny that I love you." No one has ever been able to enter my heart, you are in the palace, I want you to be by my side all the time, you are not in the palace, I can really hope for you to come back all the time, but I am not looking forward to your return One of my love for you. ”

The body was hugged, and Mo Yu did not struggle, nor did she have the strength to struggle. Hear his deep breath come from him, "I know it's wrong, I shouldn't have used you. ”

True and false, false and true. She can't tell if this sentence is true and what is false, so don't listen to the truth or falsehood, this is the best protection for herself. Mo Yu said softly: "I heard that Lord Night has been kneeling outside for a long time, and my business has nothing to do with him, let him go back!" said that he failed to protect the princess well, and deducted his salary for half a year. ”

"Whatever you say, it's what it is. I listen to you. ”

Since then, the emperor has come to see her every day, and the two of them have talked and laughed as if nothing had happened. The emperor also often collected some gadgets and sent them over, but every time Moyu just glanced at it, he asked Biyue to put it in the warehouse and never turn it out again.

Half a month has passed since returning to the palace, and on this day, Moyu is packing up his musical instruments. I haven't touched them in a long time, and they're covered with a lot of dust. She usually likes these things very much, and usually takes care of them herself, and she doesn't let people touch them, so she takes a handkerchief and slowly wipes them up.

Biyue took it out, and Moyu was responsible for wiping it, and wanted to put it back again, with a clear division of labor.

"Niangniang, you haven't played this pipa for a long time."

Mo Yu looked at the pipa in Biyue's hand, which was the one rewarded by the Queen Mother. Since the Queen Mother's birthday banquet to now, half a year, she has almost forgotten it. When I took it over, I saw that the strings were already stained with fine dust. After careful rubbing, I pressed my fingers and wiped a few notes, and it was still as thick as before. I put him back in the box, and after stroking him, I decided to close it.

Biyue was puzzled, "Doesn't Niangniang play?" ”

"Don't play it, you don't have to put this away, put it on the table!"

The sound of the piano is in charge, not your own, and you can't always play the most beautiful music, so let's return it to Zhao!

In the afternoon, Moyu brought Biyue to the Ciming Palace. Ciming Hall is still the same as she remembers, but the flowers on the windowsill have changed.

"Concubines see Queen Mother."

"Hurry up!"

Mo Yu slowly got up and looked at the Queen Mother on the main seat. Her face is not very good, probably for the sake of Father-in-law's business! Mo Yu was not in the palace at the time, so I don't know what happened between her and the emperor.

The Queen Mother gave her a seat, and then said with a smile: "Look at you, your health is not good, you don't need to come to the mourning house to ask for peace, be careful that after you go back, you will be sick again." ”

Even if the two of them have scolded each other thousands of times in their hearts, on the surface, they still maintain a peaceful and friendly situation. After all, she is still the queen mother, and she is still a concubine. Mo Yu smiled, "Now that the weather is warmer, it's not so cold. Besides, the concubines' illnesses are all minor diseases, so it's good to take two doses of medicine. The concubine came today to repay the queen mother. ”

Biyue behind Moyu stepped forward, knelt down on one knee, opened the box in her hand and raised it above her head. The Queen Mother looked at the pipa in front of her, unconsciously grabbed the robe on her knees, and after a while, she said: "This pipa was given to you by the mourning family, how can you return it to the mourning family?" ”

"Back to the Queen Mother, the concubine is not good at pipa, this pipa will only ruin the heavens when placed in the concubine, and with the concubine's current physical condition, the finger power is insufficient, I am afraid that I can't play the original beauty of this pipa. It's better for the Queen Mother to take it back and leave it to the next destined person! ”

The Queen Mother raised her head and looked at Mo Yu's smiling appearance, "Since you have sent it back, then stay here at the mourning family!" In the lifetime of the mourning family, whether it can find the next owner for it depends on its creation. ”

"Empress Dowager Xie."

The Queen Mother stood up, walked to the window, scooped water out of the small wooden bucket on the side, poured it on the flowers, and asked, "I heard that your younger brother is going to get married?" ”

Mo Yu stood up, followed behind her, and replied, "Yes, the wedding date is scheduled for the end of April, and it is Danxiu, the young lady of the Zhao family. ”

"At the end of April, it was good. If you are lucky, maybe you can come to the door with a double happiness, the title of the gold list, and the candles in the cave room. ”

"The concubine is the second brother, thank you for the Queen Mother's auspicious words."

The Queen Mother put down the water scoop, then picked up the scissors on the table, pruned the flowers and trees, and cut off the excess leaves. "It's been half a month since you've been back. When Concubine Xian was enthroned, you were grounded, and now that you are in good health, you should also go and see her. Although you are her sister, she is higher than you, and it stands to reason that you should visit her. ”

Mo Yu nodded, it had been half a month since she returned to the palace, but she had forgotten about it. "Thank you Queen Mother for reminding me, it's Moyu's fault. I wanted to visit Concubine Xian Niangniang for a long time, but I was sick and sick, and I was afraid that after I went, I would pass the illness to Concubine Xian, so I thought I would go tomorrow. ”

"It's good to have a plan. The Prayer Day is coming, and the mourning family will be very busy these days, so there is no need to come over to say goodbye if you have nothing to do. ”

"Yes, Queen Mother."

As he was talking, a eunuch came in to report that Concubine De had arrived. The Queen Mother raised her head, turned to Mo Yu and said, "The mourning family still wants to discuss the matter of praying for the gods with Concubine De, you go back first!" ”

Mo Yu bowed and replied, "Yes, the concubine has retired." ”

Out of the Ciming Palace, I met Concubine De who was about to enter at the door, and Moyu bowed down again, "Concubine see Concubine De Niangniang." ”

Concubine De gave a handful of help and said with a smile: "I heard that you are sick again these days, and this palace is busy with the affairs of the Prayer Festival, and I don't have time to see you, but now looking at your face, I think it must be very good." ”

"The illness has been cured, so I came to the Queen Mother today to say goodbye. Originally, Moyu was supposed to visit Niangniang, but she was afraid of spreading the illness to Niangniang, so she delayed, and Niangniang must not blame. ”

Concubine De waved her hand and said, "They are all sisters, everyone understands each other, and it's good to be safe." According to what you say, you haven't gone to see Concubine Xian yet! ”

"yes, I haven't had time to go yet!"

"It's not that this palace likes to chew the root of the tongue, you have to be careful. Concubine Xian has been losing her temper for no reason lately, and her taste has become tricky, and I heard that she always likes to be jealous when she eats recently. This palace guessed, probably the emperor went to your palace every day, she was angry, and she was jealous to show the emperor! ”

Mo Yu laughed secretly in her heart, this Concubine De was nothing more than a hint that her virtuous concubine was pregnant. I thought she didn't know if she wasn't pregnant! Or do you want to borrow her hand, except for the child in Concubine Xian's womb? "Concubine De, don't be joking, Concubine Xian has always liked to be jealous, this is something that everyone knows in the entire Ji Mansion."

Concubine De sneered and said, "Then it seems that the palace has misunderstood." The palace can't talk to you anymore, the queen mother is still waiting, so let's go first. ”

Mo Yu bowed down and said, "Congratulations to Concubine De Niangniang." Looking at her figure entering, Mo Yu turned to Biyue and said, "Biyue, you go back to the palace immediately, bring a few gifts, I'll wait for you in the imperial garden, let's go and meet Concubine Xian." ”

Biyue was puzzled, "Didn't Niangniang say that she would go again tomorrow?" ”

"Can't wait, let's go!"

By the time Moyu and Biyue felt the Moon Palace, it had already passed. There were already many people gathered in the Lanyue Palace, and from time to time the laughter of women came from the hall. When she was named Concubine Li, basically no one went to see her except Concubine Shu. Ji Feicui was named a virtuous concubine, but she was like a city. Also, now she is one of the four concubines, on an equal footing with Concubine De and Concubine Shu, how many people are waiting to tie up!

A eunuch went in to report, and after a while, he came out again, saying that the virtuous concubine was invited. Ji Feicui is not stupid, and she will not wait for half a day under the eaves like she did in Ji Mansion.

Entering the hall, Mo Yu bowed and saluted, and Concubine Xian smiled and told her to get up. Mo Yu looked at it and couldn't help but sigh secretly, being a woman really became different. Look at Ji Jade's dress, full of style, a red palace coat beats the ground, leaking small fragrant shoulders and sexy collarbones, embellished with little red lips, with high buns, and a hairpin full of hairpins. Moyu really wanted to say "Are you cold or not".

Standing up according to the order, Moyu turned around, opened the box in Biyue's hand, and said: "Moyu has no valuable gifts, today I brought a jade Ruyi rewarded by the emperor, I wish Concubine Xian Niangniang good luck." ”

"It's all my own family, and the next time my sister comes, I don't have to be so polite. Feel free to sit down! ”

Finding an empty seat and sitting down, Mo Yu secretly observed Ji Jade's every move. The complexion is ruddy, and the abdomen is flat, not like she is pregnant. However, even if Concubine Xian is pregnant, the month should be very small and she can't see it. There was indeed a smell of medicine in this hall, but it was only the herbs used to remove mold in the spring, and nothing else.

"Concubine Li, Concubine Li."

Moyu came back to her senses and called her? It's really called her, and everyone in the room is watching her! Mo Yu asked embarrassedly: "The concubine was rude, she left her mind just now." ”

Someone immediately accused: "Concubine Li, you are so bold, in front of Concubine Xian, you dare to be distracted, you don't even take Concubine Xian Niangniang in your eyes." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room echoed them.

A group of stupid people with no brains, now that she is being favored, doesn't it offend her to talk like this? I stupidly thought I was standing up for Concubine Xian! "The concubine is not in good health today, if there is any rudeness, please forgive me."

"Forget it." Concubine Xian spoke, "Concubine Li is not in good health, as we all know, don't embarrass her." Let's move on to ours. ”

So everyone began to joke with each other again, and Mo Yu sat there like a sculpture, without saying a word, and the people in the hall treated her as if she didn't exist.

As he was talking, a little palace maid came in, holding the medicine in her hand, and said, "Niangniang, you should drink the medicine." ”

Mo Yu frowned, and couldn't help but look at the little palace maid a few more times. This medicine is a good medicine, and it is indeed a fetal medicine, but unfortunately, there is an extra medicine in this medicine, called quinine. Quinine, is an abortion pill. If Concubine Xian goes down to this bowl of medicine today, the child will not be able to keep it, but Moyu in this hall understands pharmacology, and there are not many things that will be pulled out at that time? Who the hell is going to let her die so soon?

Concubine Xian was about to take the medicine bowl on the tray, but she didn't want to, the little palace maid who was originally bowing down somehow had a tingling pain in her knees, and then her body fell to the ground uncontrollably, and the medicine bowl that was close to Concubine Xian's hand also fell to the ground and shattered.

Everyone in the hall was surprised by this scene, and exclaimed, "Ah, ah", and scolded: "Why is this little palace maid so careless? "It's not stable to take any medicine."

The little palace maid found out that she was in trouble, so she hurriedly knelt down and kept kowtowing, "Niangniang forgives her sins, and Niangniang spares her life." ”

What kind of character is her maid, Concubine Xian knows best, it is impossible for this little palace maid to fall for no reason. Concubine Xian's shining eyes scanned everyone in the hall, and finally her eyes fell on Mo Yu, who was casually drinking tea.

Someone in the hall asked, "Niangniang, what are you going to do with this little girl?" ”

Concubine Xian looked at the person who spoke and said with a smile: "This little girl usually serves me with all her heart, presumably this time it is not intentional, so punish her to clean the yard!" ”

"Concubine Xian Niangniang is really generous."

"It's not too early, so let's go back first! This palace wants to talk to Concubine Li. ”

Everyone thought that Concubine Xian wanted to chat with her sister about family life, so she didn't stay any longer, and got up to say goodbye. After everyone retreated, Ji Feicui sent everyone in the hall back, and then said in a deep voice: "Did you do what happened just now?" ”

Mo Yu raised his head, met her gaze, and said lightly, "Yes." ”

"What do you mean, deliberately letting this palace sniff out in front of everyone?"

"Hehe, Concubine Xian, it seems that these days, the Queen Mother has trained you well, and I know how to endure it. I thought you were going to trouble me a long time ago? ”

Ji Feicui's face turned pale, and the hands propped up on the table clenched into fists. Mo Yu didn't say anything, but as soon as she said it, she became angry. Yuan is her mother, but her mother didn't even have a chance to see her for the last time, so she was forced to leave the capital by this woman's design. However, the Queen Mother repeatedly ordered her not to conflict with Mo Yu, and she was not allowed to go to the Jade Immortal Palace. said that as long as she ascended to the back seat, she would bring her mother back in the future, and it would be justified. But the premise must be that she must endure it. "Are you showing off to Hongu?"

Mo Yu stood up and walked over to the puddle of potion. The middle finger dipped a little ink, put it to the tip of the nose and sniffed it, and licked it with his tongue, making sure it was quinine. "I don't have that time to spare."

When Ji Jade saw her movements, her body couldn't help but tighten, Mo Yu knew medical skills, could she see something? saw Mo Yu walk up to her and said, "I don't know if your belly is real, but now it seems that you can't hide it." In the bowl of tocolytic pills just now, some quinine with slippery tires was added. ”

"What did you say?"

Mo Yu took out the embroidered handkerchief, wiped his hands, and said in a deep voice: "You don't have to look at me with that kind of look, I didn't do it." There are shrewd people in this palace, and if you have the slightest hint of trouble, they will know it clearly. Besides, people have been in the palace for so long, and there are eyeliner everywhere, you can't hide it. ”

Ji Feiyu stood up and said, "I don't need you to fake kindness, Ji Moyu, one day, I will avenge my mother, you wait." ”

Mo Yu snorted coldly, ignored her, and said, "Since your belly is already known, don't hide it." Now there is only one person who can keep you safe, and that is the Queen Mother of Ciming Palace, only with her protection, this child can be born smoothly. ”

"Ji Moyu, one day I will make you ruined and have nothing."

Let it be! Mo Yu obeyed and said, "The concubine's words have come to this, what to do The mother decides for herself, and the concubine leaves." ”

After speaking, he didn't care about Ji Feicui's shouting and cursing behind him, and walked out of Lanyue Palace. Biyue looked at the virtuous concubine in the hall, then looked at her master, and complained: "Niangniang, why is this virtuous concubine still so unkind to see you, she is also your sister!" ”

"Have you been in this palace for a short time? Is there sisterhood in this house? ”

Biyue stuck out her tongue and said, "It doesn't seem to be." ”
