Chapter 17: Palace Forbidden

"Yun Zheng ......" I woke up from my slumber and opened my eyes suddenly, "Yun Zheng ......"

The room is empty, where is Yun Zheng's figure? I sat up from my bed and looked around, could it be that the warm and peaceful embrace of last night was a hallucination I had when I was drunk? But why do my fingertips feel warm?

"Yun Zheng ......" My tears slipped down, "You lied to me, you lied to me, you said you wouldn't leave, you lied to me......"

"Sister......" Xiaohong heard the sound and turned into the inner room, "Sister, are you awake?" Why are you crying? ”

"Xiaohong, I saw Yun Zheng yesterday, isn't he? Is he back? I grabbed her hand in a panic, "Xiaohong, you say it quickly, say it quickly......"

"Sister, no, it's you who are drunk, why will my uncle come back?" Xiaohong looked at me worriedly, "It's you who got drunk!" ”

"Drunk?" I looked at her in a daze, looking at her expression, I must have thought that I hadn't woken up yet, right? I smiled miserably: "It turns out that if you are drunk, you can see Yun Zheng, then I would rather get drunk every day." ”

"Sister...... Xiaohong held my hand and sobbed, "My uncle has been gone for so long, don't be bitter about yourself, my uncle has a spirit in the sky, and he won't be happy." ”

I sat there for a long time before I said slowly: "Xiaohong, I'm fine, you go fetch water and I'll freshen up." ”

After washing, Hui Niang hugged Nuo'er over. As soon as Nuo'er saw me, she stumbled over with her arms outstretched: "Mother......"

I quickly squatted down and hugged his little body, afraid that he would fall. Nuo'er giggled in my arms: "Mother, Xiangxiang......"

I kissed his little face, looked at his eyebrows and eyes that resembled Yun Zheng, and my heart was sour and sweet: "No'er, good baby......"

In the past few days, I have been troubled all day because of the surrender of General Lone, but every time I see Noor's smiling face, I suddenly forget everything. This child is my heart, but also my pistachio, he rarely cries, he is smiling and welcoming to everyone, very pleasant, I see that he can't love anywhere.

"No'er, let's go, let's go and say hello to grandpa." Xiaohong and I took Nuo'er by the hand and went to the old man's courtyard. This is every homework that must be done, the old man's health is getting worse and worse, seeing Nuo'er every day is his happiest thing, and I also intend to let Nuo'er stay by his side more to accompany him.

When I entered the yard and saw An Yuanxi coming out of the face, I lowered my eyelids and didn't want to pay attention to him, but Nuo'er was very happy to see him, and called him in a milky voice: "Uncle......" Then let go of my hand and threw myself at him. He hurriedly stepped forward to pick up Noor, who patted him on the face, happy. An Yuanxi Ren Nuo'er played with his face, glanced at me in a blink of an eye, and walked in front of me: "Sister-in-law! ”

I didn't say anything, he whispered, "I was wrong yesterday, I'm sorry." ”

I looked up at him in some surprise, since he hit his head, I couldn't figure out his surname, I thought he wouldn't apologize to me if he was killed, and he would keep awkward. I bit my lip and sighed, "That's it, I don't have a good attitude." ”

Nothing more, I reached out and hugged Nuo'er: "Nuo'er, let's go see Grandpa." ”

An Yuanxi looked at me quietly, and I hugged Nuo'er and passed by him. An Yuanxi and I have experienced life and death together, such close partners and lovers, who would have thought that they would come to such a relatively speechless point today?

The old man's spirit is not very good, I can see that he is barely cheering up to tease Nuo'er, I originally wanted to ask him some questions, seeing him like this, it is not good to bother him for too long, and I was about to say goodbye, but the old man brought up the topic first: "I heard that you left a person named Duan Zhiyi to live in the house?" ”

"Yes, Grandpa." I thought about it, and finally told him about General Lonely's surrender, as well as the rescue method that Duan Zhiyi said, while paying attention to the old man's reaction. When the old man heard this, he said calmly: "Are you going to enter the palace today?" ”

"Yes." I nodded, I was originally going to go to the palace to greet the old man, but yesterday I learned the information from Duan Zhiyi to enter the palace and present it to the emperor. The old man nodded slightly and said, "Since this is the case, you can go and prepare, so that the emperor can know it as soon as possible." ”

"Yes, Grandpa." I saw the old man close his eyes tiredly, and withdrew softly with Nuo'er in his arms. When I went back to the room, Huiniang took Nuo'er away, Xiaohong tidied up my outfit for me, and was about to go out, but peace came. Seeing that I was ready to go, Ping An was surprised: "Sister Ye is going out?" ”

"I want to enter the palace." I looked up at the sky outside the window and smiled, "Aren't you worth it today?" ”

"Just right, I snuck out of the palace." Seeing that my eyes were wide open, Ping An came over worriedly and pulled me to sit on the soft couch, "Sister, don't rush into the palace first, I have something to tell you." ”

"Ping'an, how can you sneak out of the palace while you're on duty?" I frowned and said softly, "Your surname has to be changed, why is it so unproportionate?" ”

"Sister, it's important for me to tell you about this, I can't stay still for a moment, I must know you immediately." Peace and eagerness to speak.

"What's the matter?" I saw that she rarely had this expression, and said with a smile, "What happened in the court? ”

"Hmm." Ping An nodded. I sighed, shook my head and said, "Ping'an, you are now the emperor's courtier, don't keep telling people about the affairs of the court, it's not good." ”

"Sister, I won't be so impotent, it's just that this matter has something to do with you, so I told you." Ping An heard me reproach her, and hurried to speak.

"Something to do with me?" I was stunned, "What's the matter?" ”

"Today, the prince of Yaoyue Kingdom entered the palace to see the emperor, what do you guess he said to the emperor?" Ping An glanced at me and frowned.

"Say what?" How could I have imagined that what Ouray said to the emperor, why can't it be on me?

"Prince Oulei wants to marry you as a golden knife Attila, and asks the emperor to grant him a marriage." Ping An blinked and looked at me.

"Urey?" I closed my eyes, my head a little confused, "Is he crazy?" I'm a widow, how can I marry a prince? ”

"Sister, our country does not restrict widows from remarrying. Moreover, His Royal Highness the prince said that their steppe people do not value these things, let alone widows, even if their brothers die and marry their sisters-in-law, and their fathers die and marry their mothers. "Ping'an's face is incredible," Prince Oulei said that he admired his sister very much, and hoped that the emperor would become a good thing and tie up the good relationship between the two countries for a hundred years. ”

The fire in my stomach came out, and I trembled with anger. Oulei, good Oulei, are you afraid that the world will not be chaotic or what? Hasn't your self-righteous, self-asserted surname changed? I said yesterday that I had already made it so clear, why did you go to the emperor to make such an unreasonable request?

"So......" I took a breath, my hands clenched tightly under my sleeves, holding my breath for an answer, "what did the emperor say?" ”

"Your Majesty......" Ping'an looked at me and paused. I couldn't help but ask, "What did the emperor say?" ”

"The emperor said that although our Tiancao Kingdom does not restrict widows from remarrying, but Mrs. Ronghua has a respectful husband and a child, and her marriage should be decided by the elders of the family, and I am not good at interfering." Ping'an said, "The emperor also said that although Mrs. Ronghua is newly widowed, no one in the whole capital does not know that she has a deep relationship with Yun Shizi and his wife, and if His Royal Highness really likes Mrs. Ronghua, he should ask Mrs. Ronghua's approval to show his sincerity." ”

This emperor will play Tai Chi, give me so many high hats, throw problems at me, let Oulei bother me, and hide cleanly. I was a little annoyed, bit my lip, and said, "What did Ouray say?" ”

"That Prince Oulei said that he also knew that Rong Huafu and Yun Shizi had a deep relationship between husband and wife, and knew that your surname was Zilie, and he would definitely not accept him, and he didn't want to come to the emperor to help him, but when he saw you yesterday, he felt that you were not happy, he said, even if Mrs. Ronghua is angry with him, as long as the emperor decrees, everyone has to listen to the emperor." Peace Road.

"And then?" I was so angry at Ouray's self-righteousness that I had so clearly refused yesterday and strengthened his determination to ask for me, which was ridiculous!

"The emperor said that the twisted melon is not sweet, Mrs. Ronghua is a fierce woman with the most affectionate surname, if she is forcibly married, it will only backfire and make Mrs. hate His Royal Highness. The so-called 'sincerity, gold and stone are open', if His Royal Highness the Prince impresses his wife with a sincere heart, it is a good story. "Ping'an Dao," the emperor also said, if His Royal Highness can move Mrs. Ronghua, then I can rest assured, and I will definitely fulfill your good fate. As soon as I heard this, I was anxious, and I tried my best to give the emperor a look, but the emperor just didn't seem to see it, and I was so anxious that I couldn't think about it. As soon as the prince of Oulei left, I quickly asked the emperor, why did you give Prince Oulei such a promise? The emperor just smiled and ignored me, and then he was so annoyed by me that he couldn't help it, so he asked rhetorically, do you think Mrs. Ronghua will be moved by Wulei? ”

He knew I would never marry Ouray, so why didn't he just reject him? Just because Uray is the prince of Yaoyue, wouldn't he offend such an important foreign envoy for a small person like me? Ouray has his "support", and I am afraid that he will come to bother me with confidence. After listening to the words of peace, I was silent for a long time, and my heart was quite uncomfortable. Seeing that my face was not good, Ping An hurriedly said: "Anyway, I got the news, and I couldn't sit still, so I found an excuse to sneak out of the palace and report to my sister." ”

"I see." I stood up, "Thank you, peace." I'll go into the palace to see the emperor now, and you can go home today, and let the emperor know that you have reported to me, I'm afraid he will blame you." ”

When Ping'an saw me standing up, he said worriedly: "Sister won't go into the palace to ask the emperor for the guilt, right?" ”

"Fool, I had something to do to enter the palace." Which green onion am I, dare to trouble the emperor? He said today that although his prevarication to Wu Lei may cause me trouble, as long as I insist, Wu Lei will not dare to come to the Yun family.

Riding to the palace, just after the pilgrimage to the Guangting, the carriage stopped. I lifted the curtains: "What's the matter?" ”

"Young lady, it doesn't seem right." Yun Qian replied outside the car, "The palace gate is closed, and there are twice as many forbidden troops guarding the gate than usual, and there is also a group of forbidden troops guarding Bishui Bridge." ”

"Go ahead and have a look." I have some doubts in my heart, is there something going on in the palace? The carriage started slowly, and before it reached the Bishui Bridge, the forbidden army had already surrounded and forced the carriage to stop: "Who is it?" ”

I heard Yun Qian say loudly: "This is the carriage of Mrs. Ronghua of the Yongle Marquis Mansion, there is something important to enter the palace, please let me go." ”

"Today, there is an assassin in the palace who assassinates the emperor, the emperor ordered the palace to be banned, without the emperor's warrant, no one has to enter the palace, Mrs. Ronghua, please go back." A Yu Lin Lang said loudly.

"Assassins?" I was startled and lifted the curtain, "Is the emperor okay?" "Ping An didn't mention this just now, did it just happen?

"The emperor is auspicious, naturally safe and sound, Mrs. Ronghua, please come back." That Yu Lin Lang seems to be a small leader. I frowned and glanced at the palace in front of me, it seems that I can't enter today, I don't know what kind of assassination emperor is? Just as I was about to give the order to go back, there was a heavy "squeak" from the palace gate in front of me, and I looked up and vaguely saw the side door of the palace open. Yun Qian said in a low voice: "Young lady, someone from the palace has come out. He paused, and then said, "It seems to be the double happiness father-in-law next to the emperor." ”

I raised my eyes and saw the man running over in a hurry, and when he saw me, his tone was a little happy: "Mrs. Ronghua, the emperor was about to send a servant to the Hou Mansion to invite you, but I didn't expect the lady to come, quickly follow the servant into the palace." ”

Shuangxi showed the emperor's warrant to Yu Linjun, and Yulin Jun made his debut and let the carriage drive in. I lifted the curtain and asked Shuangxi: "Father-in-law, is the emperor okay?" Are there any injuries? Can the assassins be caught? ”

"Replying to Madame, the assassin didn't catch it. Fortunately, General Silence was there, and the emperor was not injured, but General Silence was seriously injured......" Shuangxi replied in a low voice. I was startled and lost my voice: "General Silence is seriously injured? ”
