Chapter 61: Intimacy
Arrived at the emperor's imperial study. Make snow and kneel down to the emperor in a proper manner.
Just listen to a low, magnetic, nice voice saying, "Get up." There is no one else here. I want to say a few words to the Lord of Wen'an. ”
Rang Xue stood up. However, no one moved her a small stool, so she had to stand like that.
Looking at the slim snow, Emperor Liu Yan suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart. The snow grows beautifully. It's a pity that Liu Yan has been immune to beautiful women since he was a child, it may be that he was born in the palace, and he faces too many beauties every day, so he has long been immune to beauties. Maybe he's more beautiful than most beauties. Anyway, I don't have much feeling for beauty. Although there are many concubines in his harem, these concubines mean the same to him.
If it weren't for the mother's family, it would be helpful to the Great Chu Dynasty. If you can't give him money. If he hadn't been beautiful and delicate, he would have been able to give birth to a child.
So, he's pretty sure he won't like the feeling of getting snow.
Langxue looks very beautiful, and she deserves to be the first beauty in the capital. Of course, there are already two of the three beauties in the capital who are their own concubines, the second is Fan Guiren, and the third is Ma Guiren.
At this moment, Emperor Liu Yan looked at the snow that was standing quietly, and felt that Fan Guigui and Ma Guiren were really far from making snow, and they were not as beautiful as the snow.
The beauty of the snow made Emperor Liu Yan suddenly feel a strange sense of intimacy in his heart.
That's right, it's intimacy.
Looking at Lang Xue's beautiful eyebrows and eyes, Liu Yan didn't feel any beauty, but felt very familiar.
Right. It's familiar, this eyebrow is very much like a person. It was this person who made him feel warm in his early court life. Let him have a lean on when he is bullied. That immature eyebrows, that not too broad shoulders, used to be his biggest reliance. It's ridiculous to say, he is a dignified prince, a nobleman, and he actually has to rely on the protection of a prince's concubine, and he goes through history, and there may not be many such things.
But. This kind of thing really happened to him. This childhood. The person who sheltered him and comforted him was the elder brother of the girl in front of him, Zhao Chongyi.
So. On this girl. Emperor Liu Yan felt familiar. Felt the kindness, this feeling, he felt for his brothers. The former prince, who is now the second brother of King Zhou, has become the third brother of the concubine, the fifth brother who went out of the palace to open the mansion, the sister Princess Lichuan who is far away in Nanyang, and Princess Huichuan, who is still a child.
This is a kind of flesh and blood affection, he can distinguish it, the funny thing is that he did not feel it in his older brothers and sisters, younger brothers and sisters, but felt it in such a girl, because this girl is Chongyi's most concerned and favorite sister.
The emperor didn't speak all the time, and Lang Xue naturally stood without speaking. The atmosphere in the hall was a little strange and quiet. However, she didn't know why, she wasn't afraid, because she didn't feel the emperor's malice.
After a long time, the emperor sighed and said, "Do you know why I called you over?" ”
Langxue said, "I don't know. ”
The emperor said, "You are smart, just as smart as your brother." Your brother is known to the world as a brave general, a master of martial arts, and a soldier who has made meritorious achievements, but few people know that your brother is a smart man. I spent the longest time with your brother. Longer than staying with Yoo Kyung-won. Well, you can't say that. The two of us spent the most time together as children. Later, I stayed in Jiangnan with Jingyuan and returned to the capital, so naturally they spent more time together, while your brother has always been fighting in the northwest and rarely returns to the capital. ”
"However, the relationship between me and your brother has not been alienated by time and distance. We still trust each other like that. ”
Langxue didn't speak, just listened quietly.
The emperor said, "Do you know why, at that time, I gave you a hint and asked you to help the princess speak?" ”
Ling Xue raised her head violently, it turned out that her guesses were correct. At that time, it was indeed the emperor who wanted her to exonerate the princess.
The emperor said, "I have lost two children in the past few days. One is my second prince, and they have already started studying. One is the unformed fetus in Fan Guiren's womb, and even men and women don't know. ”
Rong Xue frowned, this matter is indeed quite sad.
The emperor continued: "Forget about the fetus in Fan Guiren's womb, the death of the second prince is really sad for me. Although I don't love him too much among my sons, he is also my son, my flesh and blood. Back then, his family committed such a big crime, and his mother should have been given death like Li Chongyuan. But I didn't. For the sake of the second prince, I did not cure his mother's crimes, and even for the sake of the future of the second prince and his future status, I also made his mother one of the four concubines. ”
Lang Xue listened quietly. Li Chongyuan is Li Shuyu. Before the Li family was raided and exterminated, Li Shuyu was also given death in the palace. Li Shuyu was also a friend of her sister-in-law Chen Wenhui when she was a child.
The emperor said: "His mother is still interesting, after being made a concubine and exterminating her mother's family, she still knows how to restrain and quietly take the second prince in the palace." However, even so, those people did not intend to let him go, because the second prince was older and would be their son's rival for the throne in the future. Therefore, when they found an opportunity, they had to deal with the second prince. ”
Already making snow, listening to the emperor's tone, he seems to know everything.
The Emperor continued: "A little Fan nobleman is not to be worried, but he is younger, more beautiful, and more favored. is pregnant, there is nothing, but it is a noble man's child, although his mother's family is also an official eunuch, but it is not the Chen family, the Bai family, such a family, it can't become a climate. What's more, I don't know if it's a boy, a girl, and if it's a princess, it's not harmful at all. Why do these people still think of ways to deal with her? And the child in her womb? ”
"Because, harming her child is only the first step, harming her child, making her infertile, making her sad and desperate, so that she will be crazy, and she will harm the second prince as they wish."
Lang Xue remembered Fan Guiren's face. Before Fan Guiren entered the palace, she met Fan Guiren in the gathering of these noble ladies, and in her impression, she was a delicate and beautiful girl, quiet and quiet, like poetry, and she always fell into a state of intoxication for the poems written by Lang Xue.
Such a girl, she can't imagine that in such a short time after entering the palace, she actually went crazy, actually went to kill someone, or killed a child, killed the emperor's son.
Rang Xue felt a panic.
What is it in the palace that can make such a big change in a person?
The Emperor didn't notice the change in Rong Xue's expression, and he was still saying, "After the incident, I was very angry and sent someone to investigate. In fact, in the palace, my ability to control is even stronger than they imagined. So, if I want to know something, I'll be able to find out. ”
Rong Xue frowned, how do you think that the emperor and his concubines are not like husband and wife, they don't have the feeling of their brother and sister-in-law, the emperor and his concubines are more like enemies, you spy on me, I spy on you, and they secretly buy the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace, each with their own channels. In the court, as a big chessboard, start playing.
Makes Xue suddenly feel that they are all tired.
The Emperor said, "I know what happened. Wang Concubine was jealous of Fan Guiren's favor, and she kept looking at Fan Guiren, Ma Guiren was not pleasing to the eye, and she had long wanted to get rid of the two of them. Especially Fan Guiren entered the palace much later than her, and now, she is actually pregnant first. This made the princess, who knew the news, very angry. ”
"Concubine Wang planned a careful action, she had already entrusted her mother's Wang family to help her get medicine. The southwest is a holy place for medicinal materials, and these precious medicines are very common things in the southwest. Their Wang family has been sitting in the southwest for almost a thousand years, what is there not? ”
Lang Xue noticed that the Emperor's tone was a little sarcastic.
The Emperor continued: "After the concubine got the medicine, she went to you. deliberately lingered with you for so long, just to use you as a shield, so as to cover up the fact that she harmed Fan Guiren. ”
"You've already guessed the intention of the princess, right? So, you asked someone to bring news to Mingzhu. Keihara told me about it. I found out that it turned out that Fan Guiren's miscarriage was related to the princess. Unfortunately, at that time, I didn't understand that the princess was just a pawn of them, a small link in their plan. They also have real intentions. I'm just bothering the princess. ”
"I'm angry with her, but I'm not going to touch her. Because she's still useful to me. Although because of her, I lost a child. However, this child has not yet taken shape. I don't know if it's male or female. Fan Guiren, although I love it, but it doesn't matter if there is no Fan Guiren. ”
Hearing the emperor's words, Lang Xue felt that the much-loved Fan Guiren was actually just such a status in the emperor's heart, as if he was a toy, he could play with it if he liked it, and it would be a pity to lose it if he didn't like it. Anyway, there are so many beauties in the world, there must be more beautiful, more delicate, and more poetic girls entering the palace. The Emperor will not be short of toys.
Ling Xue felt a chill in her body. Why is this terrible court so cold, so weird, and what kind of people will change when they enter it, is it because the emperors of all dynasties are like this? The emperor treats the concubines like this, so the concubines also engage in conspiracies every day, compete for favor, and kill the royal family? Getting Xue was a little speechless. (To be continued......)
