Chapter 308: Guan Ju
Guan Ju Palace, this is really a good name.
Cheng Wei thought thoughtfully.
Perhaps, that woman was a favorite concubine who was once favored for a while, but in the end, the palace is indeed a place of cannibalism.
"Sister Ruodie, let's go quickly."
Cheng Wei didn't want to stay longer for a moment, held hands with Ruodie, and rushed back to the East Palace with a deep foot and a shallow foot.
At this moment, Cheng Ya was restless, and when she saw Cheng Wei who was embarrassed, she took her into her arms: "But I'm in a hurry, I knew this, so I refused at that time." β
Cheng Wei hurriedly pushed Cheng Ya away: "Big sister, I'm wet, don't give it to you." β
Cheng Ya took Cheng Wei's hand and looked left and right, and found that there was no bump, so she breathed a sigh of relief and instructed the maid: "Quickly prepare hot water for the third girl, and boil some ginger syrup." β
Cheng Wei was surrounded by the palace maids and went to the bathroom, and her whole body was submerged in the hot water covered with flower petals, and then she felt alive.
After bathing, she changed into clean and comfortable clothes and walked out, only to find that Cheng Ya was still waiting for her.
Cheng Wei walked over and sat down with Cheng Ya: "Big sister hasn't slept yet?" β
Cheng Ya pointed to the ginger syrup on the table: "Drink it first." β
Cheng Wei came over and drank it obediently.
Cheng Ya looked at Cheng Wei gently, waited for her to finish drinking, took out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of her mouth for her, waved away the waiting maid, and asked, "Lost?" β
Cheng Wei raised his eyes and looked at Cheng Ya, and those gentle eyes seemed to be able to understand everything.
Cheng Wei didn't know anything about this palace, and of course he wouldn't hide anything from his sister-in-law. So he nodded: "Well, it was raining so hard that the lanterns were extinguished." Sister Ruodie and I panicked, so we ran to the Guan Ju Palace......"
Cheng Ya obviously asked these words from Ruodie's mouth, and she was not surprised at this time, and listened patiently to Cheng Wei's words.
When Cheng Wei finished speaking, she said with a straight face: "An embroidered shoe, if you lose it, you will lose it." Don't go back tomorrow night. β
"Doesn't it matter?"
"It doesn't matter, it's not a matter of avoiding people when you go to Zhaochun Palace, it's raining when you come back. What does it matter if you lose a shoe? Guan Ju Hall is not a good place to go, since the palace maid said that you will dispose of the shoes if you don't go, this is it. Even if she doesn't deal with it, can she still harm people with this? β
Cheng Wei smiled: "I'm still afraid of causing trouble for my eldest sister." The big sister said she didn't have to go. Then I won't go. β
Cheng Ya smiled comfortably.
The younger sister is indeed becoming more and more sensible.
She reached out and touched Cheng Wei's cheek: "Then rest early." β
"Big sisterβ" Cheng Wei hesitated. didn't move, "Who is that crazy woman in Guan Ju Palace?" I heard the maid call her mother. β
Cheng Ya's face changed slightly, and she patted her: "Don't inquire about these things." β
Cheng Wei hugged Cheng Ya's arm and shook it: "Big sister, just tell me, otherwise I can't help but be curious." β
Cheng Ya couldn't help Cheng Wei's crookedness, so she said: "Actually, I don't know these things very well. I only know that the Guan Ju Hall was once the place where the queen lived in the summer, and the woman you saw. It should be the queen mother. β
"The Queen?" Cheng Wei was taken aback.
She knew that now that the harem was in power, the queen of Daliang seemed to have been deliberately forgotten. But I didn't know that the queen mother turned out to be a madman.
Cheng Ya sighed: "It is said that the queen has been like this for many years, and I only slowly learned about it after entering the palace. After all, after it is a country, it will lose the unity of the country if it is spread out. β
Cheng Wei boldly asked: "Even if this is the case, then why didn't the emperor depose the queen?" β
Cheng Ya slapped Cheng Wei and said angrily: "You girl is so bold, dare to say this!" β
"I'm just doing this in front of my big sister."
Cheng Ya stroked her abdomen and sighed faintly: "I think my mother didn't mention it to you, I have heard my mother talk a lot about the queen since I was a child." This queen mother is the niece of the queen mother and was born in a famous family in Yanzhou. β
The queen mother had no children, and raised Emperor Changqing, whose mother died early since childhood, under her knees, so that Emperor Changqing could board the dragon chair. With Feng's daughter as the queen, in the eyes of the world, it is the return of today's son to this adoptive mother.
"With the queen mother's nurturing and supporting grace first, how can the emperor easily abolish the queen." Cheng Yadao.
Cheng Wei lowered his eyes and listened, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable.
The three words "Guan Ju Palace" are engraved on the plaque that has long been peeled off the vermilion lacquer, and gradually forgotten with the years, but it seems to be a great mockery, so that every woman with love in her heart will inevitably feel melancholy.
She couldn't help asking: "Then the emperor, don't you have any affection for the queen?" β
Cheng Ya reached out and pinched her young sister's face, and muttered, "What stupid things to ask." β
If there is love, how can it be what it is now? How many men in this imperial city are sentient?
Cheng Ya laughed to herself.
Cheng Wei didn't dare to ask again, got up and said, "Big sister, go to bed early, I'll go to sleep too, Concubine Shu said that she will invite me over tomorrow." β
After the rain, the night is exceptionally quiet, and you can hear the ticking of raindrops falling from the leaves. The cool smell of the room blowing in through the window blew away the heat of the house, and it was a rare good night's sleep.
Cheng Wei tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
She had paid too little attention to these matters before, and vaguely remembered that her mother and the queen had been friends.
That's it, that's it, I don't want to do these things. She is a passer-by of the palace, and the more she knows, the more troublesome it is.
Cheng Wei finally fell asleep in a daze, dreaming one dream after another at night, and finally woke up and sat up in a daze with a thin quilt.
She actually dreamed of the queen.
The queen held her embroidered shoes and cried all the time, she went to grab the shoes, but the queen held the shoes and chased them, and finally the queen smashed the embroidered shoes on her face and woke up all of a sudden.
When she woke up, she still remembered the queen's eyes.
It turned out that the eyes that had faded from the color of madness were extremely beautiful.
Cheng Wei couldn't help but think that although the queen's madness had been going on for a long time and her condition was complicated, she couldn't give it a try when she had cured the needle.
It's just that this is the queen, I'm afraid it's not what she is willing to heal.
Cheng Wei had a headache when he thought about it, and when he looked up, he saw that the window was already white, and the sky was already bright.
She simply got out of bed, shoeed up to the window, and pushed it open.
The fresh and cool air rushed towards him, with the fragrance of earth, Cheng Wei took a deep breath and cleared his mind.
"Third girl, are you awake?" The little palace maid heard the movement and walked in quickly.
This little palace maid is still young, and she was specially appointed by the crown princess to serve Cheng Wei, although she is in the palace, her eyes are still pure, and her face is round like an apple.
Cheng Wei smiled at her: "Wake up." β
The little palace maid was stunned and muttered, "Third girl, you are so good-looking, you are the best-looking person the slave has ever seen." β
After finishing speaking, the little palace maid realized that she had said the wrong thing, and covered her mouth and looked at Cheng Wei helplessly.
Cheng Wei stretched out his hand and pinched the little palace maid's face, blinked and said, "Thank you for complimenting, don't worry, I won't tell others." By the way, I don't know your name yet. β
"Green wax, the slave is called green wax."
"Okay, I remember. Green wax, fetch water for me. β
A new day has begun. (To be continued.) )
