Chapter 80: Undercurrent

The days passed peacefully, and under the careful guidance of Gonggong Li, Wu Zhao quickly became familiar with the process of waiting in front of the emperor, although everything had to be cautious, but most of them were also handy......

The days pass quickly, autumn is in the blink of an eye, and the palace is preparing for the autumn hunting ceremony, which is not only as simple as hunting, but also an opportunity to show the strength of the country to the foreign dynasty, so the entire dynasty from top to bottom attaches great importance to it......

According to the usual practice, the autumn hunt is generally run by Concubine Wei and Concubine Yang in turn, but since Li Ke was beheaded, Concubine Yang has been reluctant to ask more about these things, everyone thought that it was still Concubine Wei who was in charge of the autumn hunt this year, but unexpectedly, the person in charge of the ceremony this year was the newly promoted Concubine Xu Xian, who couldn't help but make everyone smack, and for a time it became the most talked about topic after tea and dinner in the palace......

"Sister Wu! Why do you say that this ceremony will be handled by Concubine Xian? In terms of qualifications, in terms of position, you should choose the concubine Niangniang! Sister Wu, you have the most sacred heart, and the emperor can say a few words to you on weekdays, what do you say the emperor thinks? ”

Hongyu asked while picking up the tea leaves while looking at Wu Zhao, with a curious look on her face......

Wu Zhao carefully picked the tea leaves, Hongyu saw that Wu Zhao didn't care about her and pulled the corners of Wu Zhao's clothes, Wu Zhao reluctantly put down the work in his hand, walked to the side and slowly took out the tea set and began to abandon the tea......

Hongyu hurriedly ran over and sat opposite Wu Zhao and said urgently, "Sister Wu! ”

Wu Zhao gently put a cup of tea in front of Hongyu and said softly: "Hongyu, these are not things we should care about, nor are they things we can care about, do you understand?" All we can do is do our part, and the false assumption of the divine will may bring us ruin! ”

Bai Zhi on the side came over and sat down, took the tea handed over by Wu Zhao, and said: "Hongyu, what Zhao'er said is right, we are in the palace, and many things are not something we can discuss, especially those of us who are waiting in front of the palace, and we can't say a word. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Hongyu flattened his mouth and said, "People are just curious......"

Bai Zhi frowned and looked at Hongyu and said solemnly: "Hongyu, why do you think you can wait in front of the palace?" ”

Hongyu nodded and said, "Of course I know!" A few years ago, Hongxiang, who was waiting in front of the palace, died of a sudden illness, so Gonggong Li picked me to wait in front of the palace. Speaking of which, I still have some friendship with Hongxiang, and her body has always been good, but somehow she died suddenly......"

Wu Zhao raised the teacup and took a sip of tea gently, tasted it carefully, and said softly: "I'm afraid it's not as simple as this......"

Hongyu looked at Wu Zhao and was stunned for a while and said, "Isn't Hongxiang ...... due to illness?" ”

Wu Zhao slowly put down the teacup and nodded gently, Bai Zhi sighed lightly and said: "Hongxiang has been waiting in front of the emperor for many years with me, when the emperor traveled to the Taiye Pool at night and met the virtuous concubine, he immediately issued an order to seal the virtuous concubine, and he still had to use Ning as the title, but there was no title in the palace, but there were too many objections later, so he gave up, only sealed the full face first, and then the virtuous concubine Niangniang gave birth to the princess of Lanling and entered the rear of the virtuous concubine......"

When Wu Zhao heard that the emperor wanted to use Ning as the title of virtuous concubine, his hands couldn't help but tremble, and the tea splashed out at once, Hongyu saw it, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief and wiped it for Wu Zhao, "Sister Wu, why are you so careless...... It's not hot......."

Wu Zhao shook his head with a smile and said, "It's okay, this water doesn't boil, I'll just wipe it, my aunt doesn't have to worry!" ”

Bai Zhi nodded and said, "It's okay, we still need to serve tea after the emperor goes to the court, how can we be injured if we are injured?" You have to be careful. ”

Wu Zhao nodded and said, "Well, auntie, I'll be careful." It's just that why haven't you heard about Princess Lanling? ”

Hongyu said proudly: "Of course you didn't know when you just came!" It's also strange that something like that could happen in this palace......"

Hongyu paused and said mysteriously: "That day, the Lanling princess was playing in the imperial garden, and a large number of grandmother slaves followed, and it disappeared in a good manner, when the emperor hurriedly sent the Praetorian Guards to search for the whereabouts of the Lanling princess in the entire palace, but there was no clue, the emperor angrily punished the grandmother who took care of the Lanling princess, and the matter should have settled down like this, but the body of the Lanling princess was found in the ice cellar a month later, this Lanling princess is really pitiful, and she is a golden branch and jade leaf at a young age, But he was frozen to death in the ice cellar, but when the ice was not used at that time, the ice cellar was always sealed, and I don't know how Princess Lanling got in, it is also an evil door, if it weren't for the heart palpitations of Concubine Xian Niangniang who wanted to eat the ice bowl, Princess Lanling didn't know when she would find out......"

Wu Zhao was puzzled: "Didn't the emperor send someone to thoroughly investigate how Princess Lanling went to the ice cellar?" ”

Hongyu shook his head and said: "I checked it, but there was no result, but the rumors in the palace about the death of the emperor gradually spread about the death of the emperor, and the virtuous concubine was snubbed by the emperor for a long time......"

Wu Zhao shook his head lightly and said compassionately: "It's a pity that Princess Lanling lost her life in vain when she urinated like this, and died so unexplained...... If I have the opportunity, I must help Lanling clear his name! ”

Bai Zhi sighed softly and said, "Zhao'er, you have only been in the palace for a short time, and the truth of some things is best not to explore!" ”

Wu Zhao looked at Bai Zhi suspiciously: "Please also ask my aunt to teach me ......"

Bai Zhi said softly: "If you want me to teach you, I just tell you not to say it again and don't ask again, the people in this palace who can live for a long time are never those people who are old-fashioned and warm-hearted!" ”

Wu Zhao nodded thoughtfully and said, "Thank you aunt for your advice!" ”

Bai Zhi smiled softly: "You are so smart, how can I point you to anything, it's just that you are old and thank you for seeing it......"

After that, he paused and said: "But you can have this heart, I think Concubine Xian Niangniang will also be very grateful for your ...... for Princess Lanling."

Hongyu carefully looked at the martial arts photo and engraved: "En! My aunt is right, my sister Wu is the best! Speaking of which, Sister Wu looks four or five points similar to Concubine Xian, especially her eyes! Maybe I can be a mother! ”

Bai Zhi hurriedly covered Hongyu's mouth and lowered her voice: "Little Nizi! Bold! Do you want to be the second red incense? ”

Hongyu said in horror: "Hongxiang, ...... she?" ”

Bai Zhi let go of Hongyu and looked at her coldly and said, "Back then, Hongxiang was talking behind her back that Concubine Xian was bumped into by the emperor, and even if she was executed, ......

Hongyu covered her mouth in fear and said to Bai Zhi, "Auntie, Hongyu knows that she is wrong...... Later...... I don't dare to say it anymore...... People are just joking with Sister Wu......"

Bai Zhi glanced at Hongyu who lowered her head, and couldn't get angry when she looked at the cautious look on her face, and shook her head lightly and said, "Okay, I don't blame you, it's just that you still have to be careful in the palace!" Otherwise, if you are not careful, you will die! ”

After a while, everyone saw that the hour was not early, so they went to do their own work, Wu Zhao slowly walked to the tea shelf, and played with the dried tea leaves with his hands......

If it is really like Bai Zhi said, the person in the emperor's heart is his mother?

Wu Zhao couldn't help but be frightened by his thoughts, but if that was the case, how could his mother marry his father? His family is a royal businessman and has always dealt with the royal family, the emperor really can't let go of his mother like this, how can he let his mother have children with his father like this?

When her mother learned that she was with Ah Ke, she was not happy, but she couldn't bear to disappoint herself because she insisted on it, and she thought that her mother was afraid that she would be involved in the palace struggle, but it turned out that there was such a reason......

I'm afraid that my mother knows the sadness and helplessness of this royal love, and she can't bear to embark on a difficult road of love......

Thinking of this, a few traces of crystal flashed in Wu Zhao's autumn-like eyes, Wu Zhao quietly looked at the tea leaves in front of him, and a trace of murder flashed in his eyes!

Those who have hurt me, those who have hurt the people I love, I am determined to stand with you! One day I will repay you twice as much as this pain!
