Chapter 116: Tell Yourself
Until the eleventh year of King Zhou You, Shen Hou's father, Shen Hou, who was the king of Shen State, because King Zhou You deposed his daughter and grandson, in a fit of anger, united with Yan State and Xiyi Dog Rong to attack King Zhou You.
King Zhou You raised a beacon fire for help, but the princes thought it was a hoax and were unwilling to go, and finally King Zhou You was killed by the dog Rong, and Bao Xi was taken captive, and his whereabouts are unknown.
"Lord, do you know what my purpose is in telling this story?"
Situ Ye smiled reluctantly, he already knew this story, but he didn't expect Chan'er to use it here.
Because Chan'er is the long-term alluring country and city, and he loves Chan'er even more, "Chan'er, you don't have to allude to it so much." ”
"No, this story, it's not just this version, and I never think it's completely praised, since ancient times, there has been the word "red face and troubled water", but there is no person like King Zhou You who is willing to spoil red face, how can he say it?"
Chan'er said this very quietly, after all, this is Fengque Palace, in case someone listens to it, it will be a big crime to kill the head!
"What do you think?"
Situ Ye was really a little interested when he heard Chan'er say this, but Chan'er sold Guanzi: "Today I will give you a lesson about red face and calamity, and I will tell you another version when I go back." ”
After speaking, the two had already come to the Yanyu Pavilion, Xia Xiang introduced the two into the house, and Chan'er was stunned when she saw the person standing beside Qi Meiren and waiting, how could it be her? She's not... Didn't Qi Meiren know?
Suddenly, Chan'er felt that her head was not enough, she didn't understand what Qi Meiren was doing with that eyeliner in the house?
Do you feel that no one is watching your life?
But think about it. She hasn't forgotten the etiquette, today is the first day of an official visit to her mother-in-law, and she is going to make a big salute.
"Mei'er, go get futons and tea for my son's new concubine."
Mei'er went down in response, but Chan'er looked at her back suspiciously, looking at it like this, Qi Meiren seemed to be a little heavy on her.
"What, do you think Mei'er in this house in this palace is good? She saved Hongu! ”
Chan'er frowned, did she save Qi Meiren? How do you say that?
And she was someone else's eyeliner, how could she suddenly save Qi Meiren?
Mei'er brought over with tea. There is a little palace maid who puts the futon away. Chan'er knelt up, took the tea, and served tea to Qi Meiren, who took the tea and took a sip gently: "Later." Take good care of my son. If there's anything wrong with him. This palace is the only one who asks! ”
Situ Ye muttered in his heart, why blame Chan'er? He's unreliable in the eyes of others, okay? There must always be something wrong!
And even if you have to find someone to ask for sin. Then it should be Ling Huan first, right? How can you blame Chan'er, mother, can your heart be a little more biased?
Seeing that Chan'er didn't answer, Qi Meiren put down the teacup and asked Chan'er to take a meeting gift, and then let her get up.
As soon as Chan'er got up, a little father-in-law came outside, saying that the emperor wanted to see Situ Ye!
Situ Ye looked at Chan'er with some worry, Chan'er gave him a reassuring look, and Situ Ye also knew that he couldn't take Chan'er with him, otherwise he would really be involved by the imperial historians, even if he didn't participate in him, he would go to Chan'er, and he would say how unbearable Chan'er was.
Seeing that Situ Ye had gone out, Qi Meiren asked Xia Xiang to lead Mei'er and the palace maids out and stay outside, Chan'er saw that there was no one before she asked the doubts in her heart: "Beauty, why did you transfer that palace maid to your side?" ”
Qi Meiren gently teased the tea leaves and said, "Chan'er, although you are smart, you haven't gone through these things after all, you don't understand." Just like when I first entered the palace, at that time I hadn't made a beauty for His Majesty, Rao is like this, and I am still stumbling everywhere. ”
Thinking back to when she first entered the palace, she was really helpless, the reason why she had always refused to be a beauty for the king was also here, and she came to investigate the clues of the person who wanted to seize the poison book, if she entered the palace, wouldn't she be able to get out?
But she also knew that even if she didn't agree, she still wouldn't be able to leave the palace.
In the end, in desperation, she agreed to the king, but the king was really good to her, she is also a young girl with dreams, of course she will be moved, but I didn't expect that such a move would be so many years.
"Chan'er, you must be careful of Ling Huan, although she is pampered, she can't fight you, but she has a powerful mother and a scheming father!"
"Beauty..."
"Forget it, don't be a beauty, I know you guessed my identity from the first time you saw me, right?"
Chan'er nodded: "But I don't dare to confirm it." ”
"Your mother is my junior sister, I am the only disciple accepted by your Yue family, I think back then, I also had a senior brother... Alas, forget it, don't mention it. I've always thought of your mother as my own sister! If you'd like to call me Aunt or... Mother concubine can do it. But I still want you to call me my mother, no matter how you say you're my son's person. ”
Chan'er's face turned red very cooperatively, "How can this work?" ”
"Why not? Anyway, it's all in private, whatever you call it. That's right. ”
Qi Meiren got up, walked to the dresser, took out a box of rouge from the third drawer on the right, opened it, and there was no rouge in it, but a thin dough, "This dough can be used to save your life when it is in crisis, this... It's not an ordinary dough, it hasn't undergone any changes, and by now, the Yue family's disguise technique has been lost, and only this one dough can be used. ”
Chan'er took it, reached out and touched it, it was delicate and smooth, and it was really like human skin.
"There is only this one, you have to keep it properly, and if necessary, you can use it to get out of the shell."
Chan'er's brows furrowed, if necessary? Why did Qi Meiren give it to her? Could it be that she is really in any danger?
"Ling Hao is likely to have something to do with the affairs of the Yue family at the beginning, and he may be the enemy of the Yue family! But I don't have any evidence, and now that Ling Huan and you are in Lanyue Pavilion, you have to be careful in everything, especially your flower room. ”
Chan'er looked at Qi Meiren in surprise, she had never told Qi Meiren that she had a small flower room.
"Believe it or not, you have my people by your side!"
Chan'er thought about it, is she around? There are a lot of palace maids, she is not very familiar, and the only ones who can get close to her body and go to the flower room are Ruqing and He Zixi, Zixi obviously can't, is it Ruqing?
No, there are still people who know that there is a flower room, many of the little palace maids in Lanyue Pavilion know that there is a flower room, even Ling Huan knows it.
"Beautiful... Uh, aunt..."
Chan'er was suddenly blindsided, she didn't know what to call Qi Meiren, aunt, if she usually shouted this title, but the person opposite was Situ Ye's mother, but she called her aunt, how could she feel weird.
"You, call me my mother."
Qi Meiren knows Chan'er's entanglement, and thinks that if Chan'er really calls her aunt, she will be awkward, her own son's people actually call themselves aunts, and they all say that marrying chickens and dogs and dogs should be married to chickens and dogs, since Chan'er married Situ Ye, she should follow Situ Ye and call her mother!
Chan'er was entangled for a while and then said, "Mother, who is it?" ”
"Don't you think Xia Lan and Xia Xiang's names are a bit similar? Even the Bilian you guarded that night is my person, the sinister in this palace is not something you can adapt to for a while, since you want to plant these flowers and plants in the palace, you must have a proper person to help you protect it, Xia Lan and Bilian are loyal to me, Bilian is a kung fu person, and kung fu is no worse than your sister. ”
Chan'er was stunned, but she didn't expect that unconsciously, there were already two Qi Meiren people around her, and these two people were personally selected by Liang Ping, did he know? Or is he too?
"Liang Ping... Mother, could Liang Ping be your person too? ”
Qi Meiren shook her head: "I asked him to arrange for him to serve Ye'er, it was because I saw that he had no father and no mother, and he was a kind child, if he followed Ye'er, Ye'er would definitely be able to make him die." But occasionally I'll call him in. ”
Chan'er stroked her forehead, I see.
"That Mei'er?"
"Two days ago, the queen came to sit in my palace, the palace maid Sixi accidentally knocked over the tea, and after the cane scolded Sixi, she said to lend me this makeup, without waiting for me to speak, she opened the drawer first, of course, there is nothing. In the middle of the night, Mei'er secretly burned something in the corner and was caught by Xia Xiang, only to learn later that she was burning a puppet, a puppet of witchcraft. ”
The most hated thing in the palace is the magic of witchcraft, no matter which dynasty or generation.
Since Qi Meiren said before that Mei'er saved her, it must be about this matter, if this puppet of witchcraft is discovered by the queen, then Qi Meiren's fate does not need to be said, even the emperor can't protect her.
"Then why did you transfer her to your side, concubine? She's..."
"What she said was that she inadvertently saw Sixi sneaking into the Yanyu Pavilion, so she hid to the side to watch, so she saw this scene, and then she took advantage of Sixi to leave, she took the puppet away, but she also knew that she was an inferior palace maid, and I wouldn't believe what she said, so she decided to burn it secretly."
"Although I disposed of that Sixi and secretly satirized the queen, I still can't swallow this breath! It just so happens that this Mei'er can be used, so I left her by my side, but to make a show, I want to make a full set. ”
After listening to Chan'er, it was like an initiation, it turned out that she didn't believe Mei'er, but did it for the queen to see, but how to do it?
"The struggle in the harem is different from the struggle in the inner house of ordinary eunuchs, and the inner house usually tries to clear the known eye thoughts, but in this palace, sometimes, other people's eyes are used properly, that is, they dig a grave for themselves! Chan'er, although you are smart, you still have a lot to learn! (To be continued......)
