Chapter 91: Expediency
"Girl, don't panic, I am Ah Guang, the entourage of Fu Qi Gongzi, on the order of Fu Qi Gongzi, I took the concubine out of the palace, and Miss Lao changed the clothes of this palace maid for the concubine."
When Fu Qizheng heard this, he suddenly came back to his senses, walked to the window, and was really dressed as a eunuch, Ah Guang, who was surprised, frowned, and said, "Why did my brother let you pick me up." ”
"The emperor has already left the palace, if the concubine stays in the palace any longer, I am afraid that the queen mother will be unfavorable to the concubine first. The concubine may wish to go out of the palace to avoid the limelight first, and when the emperor comes back, it is not too late for the concubine to return. Ah Guang said.
Fu Qizheng didn't want to resolutely object: "No, if I leave and am discovered, I will abscond in fear of crime, and I will be guilty of murdering Concubine Zhen, and I will implicate my brother and the entire Fu family, and even the Qin family will not be able to escape." ”
"If something happens to the concubine in the palace, and the lips are cold and the teeth are cold, Prime Minister Qin and the scholars will definitely not settle the matter, and the entire court will also be in turmoil, please think twice." Ah Guang said urgently.
Qing Chu immediately knelt on the ground, and begged with tears in his eyes: "Yes, master, I don't know what the queen mother will do to the master when the master stays, and there is a glimmer of life when the master is gone." ”
"I'm gone, what are you going to do." Fu Qizheng said worriedly, wanting to help Qingchu up, but Qingchu refused to live or die.
"The slave and maid have a cheap life, and it is not a pity to die, and when the master returns from Zhaoxue, the slave and maid will be able to turn a blind eye even if they die." Qing Chu Road.
"Concubine, without further ado, you have to leave in the middle of the night."
After changing their clothes, Qingchu and Ah Guangli picked up Fu Qizheng from the backyard and climbed over the wall, and the two walked in the quiet palace road, walking in a hurry.
"How do we get out?" Fu Qizheng said worriedly.
"Don't worry, the eldest prince has been arranged."
Sure enough, a carriage was parked in the corner near the palace gate, Qi Huanyi got out of the car, Fu Qizheng saw Qi Huanyi, and frowned: "How can General Qi be involved." ”
Qi Huanyi looked around cautiously and said to Fu Qizheng: "Don't say anything, get in the car first." ”
Boarding the carriage, Qi Huanyi and Fu Qizheng sat in the carriage together, and Ah Guang drove the car to the palace gate.
The palace gate has been unlocked, and the guard stopped the carriage: "Who left the palace late at night." ”
Qi Huanyi lifted the curtain slightly to show his face: "It's me, I injured my leg during the night inspection, and I went back to my house to get medicine." ”
When the leader of the guards saw that it was Qi Huanyi, he stepped aside and bowed respectfully: "It turned out to be an adult, my lord, please." Then he ordered the guards to open the palace gate and let him go.
"General Qi shouldn't be involved." Fu Qizheng shook his head and sighed.
"The key under the palace gate cannot enter and exit, only the minister can send the concubine out of the palace safely, as long as the concubine can be saved, the minister will not give up."
Fu Qizheng waved his hand: "The general's great grace, Qizheng is remembered in my heart." ”
Qi Huanyi was silent for a long time, and then slowly asked, "Concubine... Do you still want to go back to the palace? ”
Fu Qizheng stared at him and said with a wry smile: "Whether you want to or not, whether you want to go back or not, how can I have the final say." ”
"If the concubine doesn't want to return to the palace, you can ......"
Outside the car, Ah Guang interrupted Qi Huanyi's words: "Lord Qi, the concubine is tired, let's let the concubine rest for a while."
Qi Huanyi swallowed the words back from his mouth again, Fu Qizheng had no intention of saying anything else, his head leaned lightly on the carriage, his eyes were confused, and now everyone was around for her, Emperor Yuan left the palace to avoid, and the queen mother tried her best to get rid of it quickly, and everyone was in a dilemma.
The car flew for half a night before stopping, Fu Qizheng thanked Qi Huanyi again and got out of the carriage, and saw that this was the Fu family's garden in the suburbs of Beijing, in the past, every year in the summer, her mother would always take her and her sister to live here to escape the summer, after Qishu got married, she and her mother came here, and I couldn't help but think of the warmth and affection with my mother in this garden in the past.
"Concubine." was about to move over, but heard Qi Huanyi shouting behind him. Fu Qizheng turned his head and saw Qi Huanyi's expression was different, as if there was something unspeakable.
Without waiting for Fu Qizheng to think about it, a family Ding greeted him: "Fifth Miss, please." So he went in with his family.
I hadn't heard such a title for a long time, and Fu Qizheng suddenly felt a lot more cordial.
A grass and a tree, so familiar, the scenery is the same, but the situation is different, it used to be a summer retreat, but now it is a refuge. Xu was afraid that the news would leak out, and most of the original many mansions and maids in this annex were sent away, leaving only a few people, and all those who remained were loyal servants.
The family led Fu Qizheng to Fu Qi's courtyard and said outside the door: "Childe is inside." ”
Fu Qizheng nodded, stopped and was quiet for a moment, but his family was worried, pretending to be relaxed, stepped forward and pushed open the door and shouted softly: "Brother." ”
Seeing the people in the room slowly turning around, Fu Qizheng was stunned, his expression could not be relaxed anymore, he knelt with heavy eyes, and bowed: "Your Majesty." "The words are cold, and the heart is cold.
Emperor Yuan helped Fu Qizheng up: "I have wronged you." ”
Fu Qizheng stood up, but he didn't look at Emperor Yuan, tilted his head to the side, and said lightly: "The concubine is guilty and should be punished." "Why is Emperor Yuan here, Fu Qizheng thought carefully, although Ah Guang is his brother's entourage, but his brother and the Fu family are both foreign ministers, how can Ah Guang enter the palace and take Fu Qizheng away, if it is not Emperor Yuan, who else has this ability. Suddenly realized, he looked up at Emperor Yuan, "Did the emperor let the concubine take the concubine out of the palace?" ”
Emperor Yuan frowned and said: "It seems that you really resent me, if you don't say that you are guilty, how can the queen and the queen mother agree to deal with it later, if I don't make a decree to ground, how can I let you stay away from right and wrong for the time being, and ensure that you are considered so far." ”
"Does the emperor really believe that the concubine did not harm Zhen Niangniang?" Fu Qizheng looked at Emperor Yuan, tears couldn't help but lose his eyes, and he felt guilty in his heart.
Emperor Yuan put his hands on Fu Qizheng's shoulders on both sides, looked at her eyes, and said more and more seriously: "A little palace maid can still risk her life to protect your innocence, if I don't believe you, won't I be a husband in vain." ”
Fu Qizheng suddenly threw herself into Emperor Yuan's arms, and Emperor Yuan also hugged her, the warmth she had never had, the peace of mind that she had never had, and the heart that had been frozen for a long time was beating again at this moment. Anyone can misunderstand her and slander her, and it is enough to have his trust.
"Don't cry, when your father and mother saw it for a while, they thought I was bullying you again." Emperor Yuan whispered.
Fu Qizheng let go of his hand and stood up straight, wiped his tears and smiled: "Daddy is coming?" ”
"I have ordered someone to pick them up, so many people are worried about believing that you have been wronged, and some people who do not know the truth even accuse me of not distinguishing between right and wrong." Emperor Yuan said sarcastically.
Fu Qizheng wiped away her tears, and said with a smile: "It's the emperor who hides it tightly, not to mention that Jiaying and the others misunderstand the emperor, and even the concubines blame the emperor." ”
"Let your father and mother meet you, and then take you away so that they can feel at ease." Emperor Yuan said.
"Let's go?"
"This time out of the palace to pray for blessings is a pretense, I want to go to Xunzhou, this happened, I don't feel at ease when I leave you alone in the palace, so I simply take you with me."
"Why did the emperor go to Xunzhou." Fu Qizheng was puzzled. Xunzhou is located in the north of Suzhou, Jianglin, just returned from the south of the Yangtze River, why do you want to go to Xunzhou for no reason.
Emperor Yuan pretended to be mysterious: "Naturally, there is something important to do, and you will know when you go." ”
"Your Majesty, the scholar and his wife have already arrived." The guards reported outside the door.
"Go ahead." Emperor Yuan motioned for Fu Qizheng to go.
Fu Qizheng hurried to the front hall, and when she saw her parents, her tears couldn't be stopped, she approached and knelt on the ground: "Daddy, my daughter is not filial, so my father and mother are worried." ”
"Zheng'er, what are you doing, hurry up." Qin Shi hurriedly helped his daughter up, his hand trembled and stroked his daughter's cheek, looking at his now haggard and emaciated daughter, he was distressed, and his voice trembled: "Good boy, my mother now knows that you have suffered so much, you are the treasure of your father's mother, you are kind-hearted, which is their opponent." ”
"Madam, the emperor is here, don't talk nonsense." Fu Renxian frowned, and then saluted Emperor Yuan, who came slowly: "Weichen sees the emperor, and he is offended, and I hope the emperor will forgive him." ”
"Mrs. Fu loves her daughter with all her heart, how can I blame her." Emperor Yuan's tone was calm.
Qin put down his hand and then blessed himself: "Thank you to the emperor for saving Zheng'er." ”
"Qizheng has been wronged, I can't help her clear her grievances for a while, and it is expedient to take her out of the palace, but Mrs. Fu can rest assured, I will definitely return Qizheng to innocence, and I also ask Mrs. to tell Qin Xiang, so that he can rest assured."
Fu Qizheng suddenly thought of Qin Fu joining forces to coerce Emperor Yuan, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, my father and grandfather are also ......in a hurry."
Fu Renxian interrupted Fu Qizheng's words and said, "Zheng'er, this is all the emperor's intention, create some momentum, startle the real criminal, and let her show her feet." ”
Fu Qizheng was suddenly surprised, it turned out that this was all Emperor Yuan's thoughtful plan, and while admiring it, he blamed himself even more.
Emperor Yuan smiled and said: "You are the pearl of the Qin and Fu families, if you are really wronged, how can my court withstand it." After speaking, he turned around and left, leaving the hall to Fu Qizheng's family.
The three of them sat down in the hall.
"Zheng'er, Dad heard Shu'er tell you about your experience over the past year or so, why did you hide it from your father and mother when Yuming Palace was in trouble." Fu Renxian said.
Qin Shi took his daughter's hand and held it, and sighed: "Yes, my mother thought that you were living a stable life in the palace, but I didn't expect to suffer so many crimes." ”
Fu Qizheng smiled and comforted the two: "It's been a long time since the incident, my daughter has long been relieved, and it's not a life-threatening matter, so I don't want my father to worry about it." ”
"The emperor means to create some momentum this time, firstly, it will help you find the mastermind, and secondly, it will also make the harem concubines jealous of you in the future." Fu Renxian said.
Fu Qizheng said: "The emperor treats his daughter very well, and my father and mother can rest assured." "The emperor is so kind to you, don't let the emperor down." Qin said earnestly.
Xiao Xu sent his parents away in a moment, Fu Qizheng and Emperor Yuan then changed into civilian outfits, and went out, Fu Qizheng was surprised: "The emperor didn't bring his entourage on this trip, not even Gonggong Li?" ”
"Go and go back quickly, there are too many people to avoid trouble, I let Li Changhai stay in Qianxia Temple to take care of everything, but I want a driver, you see, that's not it?" Emperor Yuan raised his hand and pointed.
Fu Qizheng took advantage of the situation and looked at it, the person who fed the horse in front of the car turned out to be Fu Qi, muttering in his heart, his brother is the eldest son in the family, and he has been pampered since he was a child, how did he become a horseman when he came to Emperor Yuan.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Yuan said lightly: "Except for me and your brother, whoever protects you and I don't feel at ease." ”
"My brother knows martial arts, but can the emperor?" Fu Qizheng pretended to look at Emperor Yuan curiously.
Emperor Yuan was speechless, so he sank his face and said seriously: "Get in the car." ”
Fu Qizheng couldn't help laughing, walked over and glanced at Fu Qi, and said with a casual smile: "When will my brother feed the horses." With that, he boarded the carriage.
Fu Qi was stunned, and Emperor Yuan also got into the car with an unconcealable smile on his face.
