Chapter Seventy-Three: With My Life, You I Will Be Safe
Discussing the emperor's ** in private is a big taboo in the palace, Lan Er refused to say it at first, but under my soft grinding and hard bubbles, she told Qin Ge's past as if she were dead, and the instant sense of sight on her face like a strong man's broken wrist made me almost think that she was about to die.
Because Lan Er is an old man in the palace, she also knows a lot about some secrets, and I gradually understand Qin Ge's bitter past.
It turned out that Qin Ge's mother concubine was the old emperor Qin Xiaotian's favorite woman, but as an emperor, it was impossible to guard only this one woman for the rest of his life, under the pressure of the courtiers, after having Qin Ge's mother concubine, the old emperor welcomed beautiful women into the palace one by one, and the country could not be without a queen for a day, even if he knew that he would hurt Qin Ge's mother, Qin Xiaotian had to marry the queen.
Qin Ge's mother saw that the emperor favored one woman after another, from the beginning of the day with tears, gradually turned into despair and numbness, fortunately, Qin Ge's son is talented, competitive enough, and very filial, Qin Ge's mother concubine barely settled down to live in the palace.
However, the good days were short-lived.
Qin Ge began to cultivate at the age of ten, entered the early stage of the body at the age of thirteen, and broke through the late stage of the body at the age of fifteen, his top qualifications were favored by the old emperor, and also attracted the jealousy and panic of the prince's party, and the prince's evil thoughts breeded, and he decided to get rid of this younger brother who was known as a first-day talent.
Lan Er didn't know how things evolved later, she only knew that a lot of things happened in the palace that year, and the third prince Qin Ge frequently encountered accidents, but they all survived without danger, however, his mother had an accident, and the poor and kind woman was found hanging herself in the room, and on the ground under her feet, there was a line of blood written in blood.
"With my life, you will be safe."
Lan Er said and sighed: "The third prince was originally a very optimistic and sunny person, but since the accident of the Queen Mother, his whole person is like a different person, and he has never shown a bright smile again." ”
After Qin Ge ascended the throne, the first thing he did was to posthumously crown his biological mother as the Empress Dowager Xiaochun, which shows how important she occupies in his heart.
Even if I didn't see that sad picture with my own eyes, I could imagine Qin Ge's mood at that time, with my life, you will be safe for the first time, these two sentences seem to be nothing wrong, but I have a very strange feeling, Qin Ge's mother's death does not seem to be so simple.
I was thinking about it, Lan Er saw that I was in a trance, and pretended to chuckle happily, diverting this sad topic: "However, since the death of the Queen Mother, the emperor has never encountered an accident, if it wasn't for the last time the prince, ah no, it's the eldest prince, if it wasn't for the eldest prince framing him, the emperor would have been living peacefully."
Or, the Queen Mother is really like what she said, she has been bless the emperor all the time. ”
Is that really the case? I expressed my suspicions, others do not know, but I, a person who has lived in the underworld for more than 250 years, knows best, after death, unless there is a way to escape the pursuit of the bull-headed horse-faced uncle, I can only obediently go to the underworld to report.
These ordinary ghosts don't have such great magical powers to bless the living, unless she escapes the pursuit of Uncle Bull and Horse Mask and turns into a resentful spirit in the world, she will have supreme mana.
I have lived in the palace for so long, and I have not found any resentment at all, and the soul of Qin Ge's mother has left, how can I bless him?
Qin Ge left and didn't come back until the evening.
I paced back and forth in the room boredly, and touched all the furnishings in the room, and when Lan'er waited for the maid to set the table, he still didn't come.
Usually he will run around to eat, knowing that I am not welcome and cheekily refuse to leave, but now that he is absent, I am a little unaccustomed to it.
Sitting at the table and looking at the table full of delicacies from the mountains and seas, I didn't have much appetite, I looked out the window, I bit my lip, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Lan'er, is Qin Ge still handling business?" ”
Lan Er covered her mouth and smiled, with an expression of "I understand": "Back to Niangniang, the emperor has been in the study all afternoon to deal with official business, and lunch is also eaten in the study." ”
Although I knew that there were no other concubines in the palace besides me, I was still relieved. Looking at the table full of food, I immediately made a decision, waved my big hand, and said in a high spirit: "Let's go, let's send him food!" ”
As soon as I said let's go, I asked Lan'er to find two food boxes, picked a few dishes and put them in the food boxes, and took Lan'er and a few other maids straight to the study.
"City Lord Luo Shao, the emperor is waiting for you inside!"
I walked up the high steps, and at a glance I saw a familiar figure, that tall and thin figure, delicate but pale face, who was not the Luo Shao City Lord I met in Yanluo City?
"Young City Lord, long time no see!"
City Lord Luo Shao was very surprised to see me, but he quickly returned to normal, but he was puzzled: "Girl, why are you in the palace?" ”
I opened my mouth, but I didn't know how to explain my current identity, to be honest, I didn't like the identity of this concubine very much, but in the eyes of outsiders, I was Qin Ge's woman, or the woman he loved very much.
Smiled awkwardly, I was worried that I didn't know how to answer, but a maid raised her eyebrows and scolded: "Bold, don't you still salute when you see Concubine Mei?!" ”
Rao is calm enough, but Luo Shaocheng Lord still opened his slightly pale lips in shock, obviously he had never seen a short and ugly concubine like me.
I glared at the sinister maid, but I had already been revealed, and I had no need to hide it, so I simply shrugged my shoulders and acquiesced.
Lord Luo Shaocheng was stunned for a while before he reacted, his eyes flashed, and he smiled: "It turns out that you are the eldest lady of the Mei family, Luo Bin has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and please don't be surprised." ”
I waved my hand indifferently: "Young City Lord, don't say that, you helped me a lot at the beginning, ah yes, what is the matter with you entering the palace?" ”
Luo Bin said: "The emperor summoned you." ”
I let out an "oh", pointed to the food box carried by the maids behind me, and said with a smile: "I'll bring food to His Majesty the Great Emperor, let's go in together." ”
Luo Bin looked at me strangely, didn't say anything, and followed me silently into the upper study.
Qin Ge obviously knew what was happening outside the door, and when he saw me and Luo Bin coming in together, he didn't ask anything, and he didn't refuse the food I sent, and asked Luo Bin to sit down and eat together, but he didn't let me sit down.
I watched as the two of them discussed state affairs while they pondered and discussed, while I waited by like a little maid, and I couldn't help pouting in frustration.
