Chapter 56: The Emperor Refuses to See
"Let's go." ”
The Lan family walked over swaggeringly, and the people had already walked away, and the laughter was still there.
I don't know how long it took, only the cuttlefish was left on the long empty road, and she was still kneeling, crying in the face of the summer breeze. Once upon a time, she still insisted on being mighty and unyielding, and even dared to talk back to the Son of Heaven, but now she wants to be humiliated like this and offer her dignity with both hands.
The rough ground hurt her knees faintly, but the pain was far less than one ten-thousandth of the heartache, and the cuttlefish wiped away her tears, this bullying could not be in vain, and sooner or later she would have to pay it back twice.
Slowly got up, didn't care to rub her already stiff legs, the cuttlefish muttered the word "emperor", and continued to walk towards the palace of nourishing the heart, she was going to see the emperor, she must go.
Along the way, I met a lot of palace maids and eunuchs, in other words, they would definitely greet the cuttlefish respectfully, but now it is different from the past, now she can only look at the cold faces, and the tone is ugly and harsh.
Finally arrived at the front of the Yangxin Palace, the cuttlefish hurriedly ran to the eunuch guarding the door, and asked cautiously, "Can you inform the emperor that Su Chang from the Xianfu Palace is here?" ”
The eunuch's face was suspicious, and he was puzzled, "Su Chang is in Wan'an, aren't you grounded, why are you still here, could it be that the queen lifted your grounding order?" ”
The cuttlefish laughed awkwardly, and begged with good words, "Father-in-law, the emperor is inside, if he is, please go and report it, I have something important to say." ”
She ran out without permission, and she didn't know how to explain, so she could only put down her identity and say it in a good voice, so that this eunuch could go and report to the emperor quickly.
"Okay, minions, let's go, you wait here first." His attitude was not bad, and he turned around and went in to report.
With a nervous mood, the cuttlefish stomped his feet frequently in the same place, thinking about what to say when he saw the emperor for a while, he hadn't seen him for a long time, and there must have been a lot of love to tell between the two of them, and there were many thoughts, many sorrows, and many grievances...... As long as you see the emperor, you can solve it with a qiē.
She thinks about the emperor very much, and the emperor naturally misses her very much.
After a while, the sound of footsteps sounded, and when I turned around, it turned out to be Shuncai. Shuncai frowned slightly, his face was not very good, his steps became slower and slower, until he reached the door, paused, and said, "Su Chang is auspicious, you have been doing well recently." ”
His attitude towards the cuttlefish was as deferential as ever, and he was not affected by the rumors.
The cuttlefish couldn't hide his joy and said happily, "Shuncai, are you here to take me in, what did the emperor say." ”
After that, the cuttlefish was anxious to go inside, anxious to see the emperor.
"Su Chang is here, please stay." Shuncai persuaded the cuttlefish and asked her to stop, "It's really unfortunate, the emperor is taking a break in the Xinuan Pavilion at this time, so it is not appropriate to be disturbed, you better go back." ”
The cuttlefish was taken aback, the emperor has rarely rested, often not even a lunch break, how can he sleep at this hour? Isn't Mo sick? She looked at the helpless look on Shuncai's face, and quickly denied the guess in her heart, no, it wouldn't be sick, if the saint's body was really sick, it would have spread in the palace a long time ago.
"Then I'll go in first and wait, I'll wait until the emperor wakes up, and I'll go find him again." The cuttlefish asked.
Shuncai lowered his head, and immediately rejected this request, and replied, "The emperor has been busy with government affairs recently, I'm afraid I won't be able to spare time to accompany you for a while, so the servant advises you to go back, don't wait here." ”
The emperor is in the palace of nourishing the heart, and naturally he also knows that the cuttlefish is asking to see, since Shun will say such a thing, he must have been instructed by the emperor to send her away.
The cuttlefish understood that the emperor was not really resting, but just found a lame excuse to drive her away, and the emperor didn't want to see her.
But why is the emperor so ruthless, he doesn't even want to see each other, could it be that he really thinks that she has a relationship with someone else? At the very least, she should be given a chance to explain.
The cuttlefish looked at Shuncai in a daze, knowing that he was just following orders, and he didn't want to embarrass him too much, so he only left a sentence: "If the emperor has something to do, then I will go back, and I will help you bring me a word, and tell the emperor that I am waiting for him in Xianfu Palace, if it is...... If he has time, please come here, I have something important to tell him. ”
Shuncai nodded slightly, "The slave will help you convey the words to the emperor, please go back." ”
The cuttlefish left in disappointment, and at the moment she turned around, Shuncai couldn't help but let out a regretful sigh, he served in front of the emperor, knowing the holy will, and inevitably felt sorry for the miserable woman in front of him. It's not that the emperor doesn't care about him, it's just that she didn't have a good time, it happened that Prince Yi was seriously ill, the rebels in the northwest saw opportunities again, the courtiers did not act, and the back court was unstable, so what should the emperor do.
At this time, the cuttlefish could only subconsciously move her steps back, her heart was full of confusion and grievances, she had to work hard to come to the Heart Cultivation Palace, but she didn't even have a chance to enter.
She waited in Xianfu Palace for three days, the emperor didn't come, she violated the ban and came here in humiliation, and the emperor didn't see her, so what other way could she tell the truth, and who would be able to help her get out of trouble.
Look at this, the emperor will not treat her like before, and she may not even be able to look at it in the future, and she feels that it is difficult to support it anymore.
It's still hot, but the cuttlefish's heart is as cold as winter ice.
The grief was constantly catalyzed, so that the cuttlefish finally became unbearable, and his legs went limp, and he fell to the ground. Before she could react, there was a hot pain in her hand, and when she looked down, a large piece of flesh was scratched on her palm, leaving a bright red.
Her left foot was also twisted, and when she moved, she felt a pain in her heart.
It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and the cuttlefish was so sad that he couldn't help himself, and he had to encounter this unfortunate thing, if he was seen by others for a while, he would definitely laugh at her down-and-out appearance.
"Su Chang is there? Isn't this Su Chang here? ”
Sure enough, I was afraid of something, and I was stopped.
The cuttlefish turned his head and saw that it was Zhang Hai, the head of the respectful room, when he was favored before, he offered a lot of flattery, and now, I'm afraid I want to say a few ridiculous words.
Zhang Hai came over to see the situation clearly, and hurriedly helped the cuttlefish up, "Why are you knocking, come, the old slave is supporting you, where are you going." ”
He looked the same as usual, and he still spoke politely.
The cuttlefish glanced at him cautiously and replied, "Go back to my Xianfu Palace." ”
"The old slave is free, and your feet are inconvenient, so let the old slave help you back."
The cuttlefish frowned, and secretly said that Zhang Hai, who has always been a dog, how could he be so good to her who had fallen out of favor, and he couldn't see any change.
