Chapter 69: The Truth (1)
Ning Ge was not so drunk that he forgot his identity, he struggled hard, and pulled off a brand with his probe on the man's body, raised his foot and kicked it sideways, and the instep was scraping on the calf of "Feng Yu Drag", but unexpectedly, he wore a pair of eight-treasure shoes to participate in the palace banquet today, and the upper of the shoe was inlaid with various Dongzhu treasures, and this kick hurt her own instep a lot, and both of them had a moment of soberness.
Feng Yu laughed: "You are interesting." ”
Ning Ge touched the instep of her foot and gasped, and shot back unceremoniously: "Interesting your sister!" ”
"My sister?" The man turned his head sideways, and he didn't know what he was talking about.
"Concubine Ning!" There was a call in the distance, Huang Yan's eyes darkened, and he slightly pushed away the Ning Ge in his arms and turned over and went to the top of the rockery, only hidden behind the peak of the rockery.
Listening to that voice is the familiar Princess Qihe, if this girl finds out that he is here, and he is still hugging the emperor's concubines, he will have to turn the sky upside down.
Qi He was approaching Ning Ge little by little, Ning Ge closed his eyes and fell drunk on the edge of the rockery, with tears still hanging from the corners of his eyes.
"Mother?" Qi He pushed Ning Ge slightly, Ning Ge came to his senses, and saw Qi He who was not very clear: "Qi He? Isn't it Feng Yuyu? Why did it change to you again? ”
Qihe's eyes flashed slightly, and he looked around and saw no one: "The second brother is playing the piano at the banquet, what are you talking nonsense!" ”
Ning Ge let out a faint sigh, only thinking that he was dreaming, and stood up with Qihe's hand and staggered back to the banquet. I always felt that the feeling just now was too real, and when I looked back, there was nothing in the darkness in the depths of the rockery. Clenched his hands hard, only to find that he was holding a jasper brand in his hand, and as soon as the cold wind blew, Ning Ge instantly sobered up most of the time, and subconsciously put the brand into his sleeve.
Qi He turned around: "When you leave, a lot of things have happened at the banquet. ”
Ning Ge turned out of a rockery in a trance, and happened to be standing under a big red lantern, only then did he hear the quiet sound of the piano echoing in the air.
Today's piano sound has faded from the sad color of the past, and it is as clear as wine in a cup. It is the joy of everyone today, but it is the sadness in Ning Ge's heart.
However, this qiē can't compare to the mystery of the man behind the rockery just now, Feng Yulu has never been to the back mountain, so who is the one pretending to be Feng Yulu behind the back mountain?
Who is she kissing with?
"Mother?" Qihe called again, and Ning Ge looked up and wondered, "What did you say?" ”
Qihe said helplessly: "Have you drunk too much?" I've said that until now you have only heard me call you. ”
Ning Ge snorted, "Yes." Drink like a fish. ”
"Are you sad because the imperial brother favored Concubine Liu, who made things difficult for you at the gate of Cining Palace that day?" Qi He said suddenly.
After Ning Ge heard this, the wine was completely sober. It's like a flood of stomach acid, rolling back and forth in the stomach, and even the breath exhaled has a sour taste.
It's just that Feng Yufei is not her alone after all, she has to accept this fact if she is alive in this deep palace or wants to depend on each other.
Ning Ge smiled bitterly: "Concubine Liu has been reset?" ”
Qihe nodded: "The Queen Mother moved out of Xiliang and Fengling to have diplomatic relations, and gave Concubine Liu a bed today." The imperial brother responded, and I just remembered that this Concubine Liu seems to have been moved out by the imperial sister-in-law today because she made it difficult for you and Yu Guifei at the gate of Cining Palace to get off the throne, isn't it a slap in the face of the imperial brother. The life of the royal brother has been hard, for the second brother and I to camp step by step, these many years and the Huang family have been peaceful, I feel hard when I look at it. Qi He carefully observed Ning Ge's expression, and then saw that Ning Ge's face was like ashes, as if he had suffered a big blow, he had drunk wine, and his face was peach blossom powder, but he was as white as paper.
Qi He secretly said that it was not good, and hurriedly explained: "But I can see that the imperial brother treats you the most differently, and he is even willing to sacrifice a qiē in order to protect you." If it weren't for you, the imperial brother wouldn't have been at odds with the Huang family so early. I'll just say, you are the savior who changed the royal brother. It is also the savior who saved my Huang family. ”
Yuqing is now stepping into the position of the concubine, although she is not treated by the queen mother, but after all, she and Feng Yufei are brother and sister, if such a blatant husband and wife relationship can protect Yuqing, even if it is against human ethics, it is acceptable.
The big stone here had just fallen to the ground, but Qi He's words made Ning Ge's heart dullly press on a big stone. She couldn't help but think of the Lin family's annihilation, her hand shook slightly, and she grabbed Qihe's hand: "Princess...... I treat you like a confidant sister. You said that he sacrificed a qiē for me, are you talking about the fact that I was inexplicably rescued from the palace because I escaped confinement without authorization that day? ”
Qi He's eyes flashed, and he covered his mouth with some annoyance: "Uh...... I'm just telling you a word...... You don't have to think about it......"
Ning Ge was more sure of Qi He's dodge, and grabbed Qi He's hand a little harder, and the force almost broke Qi He's hand.
The suspicion in her heart became bigger and bigger, almost swelling to the point that she couldn't bear it in her stomach at all: "No, I was inexplicably brought out of the cold palace that day, what does it have to do with the Lin family's extermination case?" ”
Qi He was startled, and hurriedly covered Ning Ge's mouth: "Ancestor, you can be quiet." There are many people at this banquet, the affairs of the Lin family have just been suppressed, if they are provoked and investigated again, do you want the imperial brother to be doomed? ”
Ning Ge gasped and looked at Qihe in front of him with wide eyes. I stumbled under my feet and almost fell to the ground, and it happened that there was a craggy rockery on my back as a backrest, and Ke's back was in pain, and Ning Ge couldn't take care of it.
"Do you really have anything to do with that?" Ning Ge sighed and groaned, her voice almost falling into the dust, and when she remembered that Yuqing's eyes that were originally born with a smile were now sad, her heart was clenched, as if a steel knife was constantly scraping the flesh and skin in it.
"I've been in the Buddha Hall for more than ten years, and I don't want to come out because I don't want to see these people fighting back and forth. On the night when the Lin family was destroyed, the imperial brother came to look for me, and the Lin Mansion was unrecognizable early the next morning. I checked and checked, only to find out that the source was in the queen and you, the small generation of the Huang family has a son named Huang Rin, who is infatuated with the daughter of the Lin family, because he can't commit suicide because of his lop ears. It's just that it's not the Huang family who destroyed the Lin family, but it's my imperial brother...... There must be a deal between my imperial brother and Huang Jiu to do this, so I naturally have to think about who in this palace can exchange the lives of a powerful minister's family. ”
Qi He looked at Ning Ge with blazing eyes, and said for a long time before he said: "Coincidentally, after the Lin family was destroyed, you who might have died in the cold palace were brought out by the imperial brother very smoothly. You know that although it is the queen mother who punishes the crime, and although the royal brother is the king of a country, it is in the hands of the Huang family after all, and even the queen mother is the Huang family. If you can't give an explanation later, the royal brother will be helpless if he has the heart to let you go. ”
Ning Ge raised his head and suppressed his tears, waved his hand, "You don't have to say it. I'm just an ant, and I can't afford to trade my life for a minister. ”
Qi He was in a hurry, and took a step closer and grabbed Ning Ge's wrist: "Do you know why I didn't go back to the Buddha Hall this time?" ”
"I don't know...... I don't want to know anything......"
"You have to know. This is what you owe Yuqing, and what you owe to the Lin family. My royal brother has been suppressed by the Huang family for me and my mother, and I have been in the nest for many years. Someone is designing to force you to be the enemy of the Huang family step by step, and even my imperial brother is also doing the last forbearance. It's about to reach the bottom line, as long as you make a little progress, the royal brother can tear his face with the Huang family. I'm really fed up with watching the imperial brother's forbearance over the years, I'm willing to fight, what's the matter if I lose this country? Qihe was very excited, and his eyes were red: "Do you think the life of the Buddha Hall is good?" I grew from a yellow-mouthed child to a young girl, and I was with the Buddha every day. Why? It's the royal brother who is afraid that I will offend Huang Jiu and not end well! When I was six years old, I provoked Huang Jiu and almost lost my life in the princess's mansion, and the imperial brother dismantled the Jiangnan Dam in order to protect me, and ten people died in exchange for my life. But I can't do anything! Because I still have the queen mother and the royal brother behind me, as well as the second brother. ”
Ning Ge finally understood that the flood in Jiangnan when the princess entered the Buddhist hall turned out to be not a natural disaster, but an illusion made by Feng Yufei.
How paranoid and even powerless he would have to be to make such a decision.
Although he is sitting on the dragon chair, what is the difference between his high position and the "lonely" in his mouth?
It's just that Ning Ge doesn't believe it, Feng Yu Fei is scheming, strategizing, and being able to master half of the sky except for the Huang family is not inferior to the Huang family. Over the years, he has been waiting for an opportunity for most of the years in the Huang family, but what kind of opportunity is he waiting for?
"So you chose me just because I was alone and not afraid of implicating others after death?" Ning Ge sneered.
Thinking of the past, Qi He's eyes were misty: "No, it's just because you have the courage to oppose the Huang family." If the imperial brother cares about you, he will definitely protect you, you can change him, at least force him to break with the Huang family. Even if I lose everything we have, I don't want to live like this life of being controlled by others everywhere! ”
Ning Ge took a step back: "You never thought that your paranoia would ruin all your imperial brother's plans. ”
"What kind of plan, if there is a plan, why sacrifice the Lin family to save you? More than ten years have passed, and the queen mother is also the Huang family, do you want him to endure until the queen mother? ”
"You're overestimating me." Ning Ge was always reluctant to admit it, "The Queen Mother is in good health, and there is still a long way to go." ”
Qihe pressed step by step: "The second brother can't be considerate of the imperial brother, the queen mother is the Huang family after all, the imperial brother has to take care of the world and this annoying harem, can you bear to watch him die of exhaustion?!" ”
