Chapter 2: Thank you, sister

2Thank you, sister!

Let Mulan get a soup woman to hold in her arms, and she felt a little warmth.

"If you're hungry, get something to eat."

Hearing her master's command, Mulan was so happy that she almost cried. The queen hasn't eaten for several days, so how can people not eat?

At that moment, I happily went to the small kitchen and ordered to boil thick porridge.

After being hungry for so long, I can't get the slightest bit of oil, so I can only use porridge to regulate my weak stomach.

When the porridge was boiled and Mulan went in, she found that Zhao Yanrong had fallen asleep again.

But at the age of eighteen, he couldn't be at peace in his sleep.

Looking at Zhao Yanrong's pale face and slightly frowning eyebrows, Mulan sighed lightly, put the porridge bowl in her hand on the low table in front of the bed, and leaned on the side of the bed and took a nap.

She was really tired for the past two days, and when she woke up, she found that it was dark outside.

When she looked up, she saw Zhao Yanrong's dark eyes staring at her.

Without the summons of the queen's mother, the palace people did not dare to enter the inner hall, and the two female officials who were originally on duty in the inner hall had already been killed, and Aunt Mulan slept again, so naturally no one lit the lamp in the hall.

In the dark hall, the queen sat quietly, and all Mulan could see clearly was her faint glowing eyes.

She hurriedly wanted to get up and kneel, but she didn't expect to sit on her stomach for a long time, her legs were already numb, and before she could stand up, she fell to the ground with a "plop".

"Mother forgiveness."

"Come here, I'll rub it for you."

The voice that came from the darkness was soft and soft, completely different from the coldness she gave people during the day.

Since entering the palace, Mulan has not heard Zhao Yanrong speak in such a soft tone, and she was stunned for a while, and her nose began to sour again.

"Slaves don't dare."

"Come here!"

Obviously there are only two words, but there is a toughness that people can't refuse, and Mulan crawled in front of her.

"The slave's legs are no longer numb." In the end, she still didn't dare to let the queen mother rub her legs, Mulan pinched her calf several times and replied cautiously.

"Really?"

"Yes, the slave doesn't dare to deceive the mother."

"Mulan ......"

"The slave is here."

"You go outside the door to see, Dan Feng and Bai Lu have not returned." In the darkness, the queen's voice was obviously cold.

She had just taught Concubine Rong a lesson during the day, and she should know what to do.

As long as you are not stupid, you should send people back as soon as possible.

After such a long time, no one has returned, and there are only two possibilities:

One is that he can't come back, and the other is that he needs to do something.

However, the queen is not dead yet, and Concubine Rong should not be able to kill the female officials around the queen now, so eight out of ten, Dan Feng and Bai Lu are suffering a little.

Sure enough, in just a quarter of an hour, Mulan brought the two to Zhao Yanrong.

"Light the lights first." Mulan whispered to the two.

The room gradually brightened, and Zhao Yanrong saw the two girls kneeling in front of her.

The eyebrows are clear and upright, and they are the same as in memory.

The dress was a new blue cross-collared narrow-sleeved shirt, with a faded blue dress tied underneath, and a green corset around the waist. Although his face was smeared with a little powder, he could still tell that he was not in good spirits.

Dan Feng and Bai Lu, who were kneeling on the ground, looked at their expressions peacefully, with a mixed smile on their faces, but the corners of their eyes were still slightly red, obviously they had cried before.

After the two of them were taken away by Concubine Rong, they were found and thrown to the Huanyi Bureau within a day. The work in that place of the Huanyi Bureau is heavy and hard, Danfeng and Bai Lu are the big girls brought out by Zhao Yanrong from the Zhao family, where have they done such dirty and tiring work? In addition, a group of slaves and maids who held high and low got the hint from above, and they tossed them a lot. Therefore these days have been very sinful.

I thought there would be no chance to see the light of day, but I didn't expect the queen mother to suddenly wake up and ask them to go back. Dan Feng and Bai Lu hugged their heads and cried, and then they were taken out of the Huanyi Bureau by Concubine Rong's people, cleaned and changed their clothes, and smeared ointment on the wounds.

They are the sons of the Zhao family, and their parents are in the Zhao family. If something happens to Zhao Yanrong, their whole family doesn't want to live, so Concubine Rong won't put her mind on them.

Of course, the queen mother was about to breathe when she looked at it, who would bother to work so hard?

Looking at their arms that were blue and purple and had a few wounds under their rolled up sleeves, Zhao Yanrong didn't say anything for a long time.

The two men looked at her timidly.

The queen was angry, and they could feel it clearly.

"Niangniang, we don't have pain for a long time, you take care of your body, don't worry about these little things." The queen is good at everything, she is a straightforward character, and she never knows how to compromise tactfully, so she can't let the emperor like it. Now that she is grounded in the Zhaoyang Palace, she must not give outsiders a handle for the two of them.

Dan Feng has a calm temperament, Bai Lu is smart and wise, if it is not reliable and useful, the Zhao family will not let the two of them follow Zhao Yanrong into the palace.

"Niangniang, Concubine Rong is instigating you to be angry with the minions of the Huanyi Bureau." Bai Lu said, "What is your identity?" Isn't it inferior to be angry with those people? If a few more lives are lost, the courtiers outside may have to talk nonsense again. The emperor asked you to recuperate in the Zhaoyang Palace, and you raised it. As long as you're there, no one else can touch the slaves. ”

"Yes, you can take care of your body with peace of mind, and the more comfortable you are, the more irritable they will be." Dan Feng also persuaded, "Hurry them to death!" ”

"Don't worry, is Hongu such a person who doesn't know how to measure?" Zhao Yanrong laughed.

Hearing this, Dan Feng and Bai Lu were both relieved.

When the queen mother fell asleep, Mulan took Danfeng and Bai Lu to the side hall and told them in detail about the lesson of Feng Dechang and Concubine Rong during the day.

The resentment that had been held back for a long time was finally released, and Mulan's whole person was full of energy, and when Feng Dechang pointed out Concubine Rong and was stunned by the board, she was so excited that she almost jumped up.

"You didn't look at it, Niangniang's majestic momentum." Mulan smiled so much that her eyes bent into crescent moons, "Concubine Rong Niangniang used to pull out more people, she was not less angry with our mother, I originally looked at Niangniang everywhere and tolerated her, ignoring her, we were still in a hurry in private, but I didn't expect her to save all of her today, and she had a seizure in one breath." ”

"Niangniang didn't care about things before, so these dog slaves thought that Niangniang could be bullied." Bai Lu said hatefully, "The rough mother-in-law of the Huanyi Bureau who praised the high and the low did not abuse the two of us sisters, and one day, we will also have this grievance." ”

"Rejoice! Niangniang did a good job, that Concubine Rong just relied on herself to be favored for a few days, and she wanted to climb on Niangniang's head, I'm bah! Dan Feng took a sip. The mother has a good temperament to tolerate her, and she is so black-hearted. If you want me to say, I should also beat my ass like that Feng Dechang. ”

Mulan smiled and slapped her on the head: "Concubine Rong is the emperor's favorite, and she is not a slave like Feng Dechang, how can Niangniang beat her board?" She was in the wrong hands of her mother, so she could be punished like this. ”

"If Niangniang was willing to do this earlier, those cheap seedlings wouldn't dare to use any puppets to harm Niangniang." Bai Lu sighed, "I don't know how long Niangniang's majestic momentum can last." ”

Mulan and Danfeng glanced at each other: "I hope it can continue to be mighty like this, Niangniang." ”

I slept a lot during the day, and I couldn't sleep well at night.

Countless fragments of memory, either vague or clear, flew around in her mind, and Zhao Yanrong knew that these were the parts she had not fully absorbed.

I don't know why, the more I try to catch them, the more I can't catch them, I can see them in my dreams, but in the daytime, as soon as my eyes open, they all disappear, leaving only a faint touch.

Slightly sour, with a little astringent sweetness, there is an indescribable sadness.

Maybe this is the part that Zhao Yanrong didn't want to leave her.

Zhao Yanrong is not in a hurry, for her, as long as she is left with a memory part that can ensure the safety of this identity, it is enough.

Heaven gave her a second life, and she will cherish it well.

It's just that since ancient times, most of the queens have been cannon fodder, she finally survived in this body, and if she wants to live comfortably for the rest of her life, the most important thing is to keep this identity and not let her have the possibility of being cannon fodder.

This body does not remember much of the emperor, and even his face is not very clear, which is understandable.

Zhao Yanrong entered the palace for only three months, except for the first month of the first month, the fifteenth day of the new year, the emperor would come to Zhaoyang Hall to stay overnight, the rest of the time, he spent the night with other concubines.

She knew that the emperor didn't like her, but the original owner didn't seem to like the emperor either.

Also, what type of woman has not seen a man with such a large harem, and what style of beauty has not tasted it?

A woman like Zhao Yanrong who is old-fashioned and meticulous, even if a man wants to be petted, he has no place to speak.

Actually, that's pretty good.

It is better to expect a stallion to have love than to expect a sow to climb a tree.

As long as this man is not brain-pumping, and he really wants to help other women to take the position for some bullshit love, then she is safe for the time being.

Zhao Yanrong thought in her heart that she still had to find a chance to reconcile with that man.

Just like going to a business negotiation, both parties have to have a considerable amount of leverage before the negotiation can proceed.

If the chips are all on one end, then it is not called negotiation, it is directly crushed and crushed, and a yarn is still negotiated?

She can't be in a hurry, she has to slowly sort out the messy information.

If the Zhao family had no bargaining chips, the emperor would not resist the pressure of the queen mother and have to make her the queen.

So her first task now is to dig out what is beneficial to her.

After thinking about it, the rain outside had stopped, and the dark weather was gradually graying, and she fell asleep in a daze.

From beginning to end, she never thought about why she was under house arrest in the Zhaoyang Palace, and why the emperor refused to come in once in more than a month.

Mulan had vaguely mentioned to her whether the emperor would have the idea of abolishing the queen, but Zhao Yanrong was not worried at all.

I don't know why, she just doesn't think it's dangerous. Although even she herself can't remember exactly what the cause of the incident was, she clearly knew that the emperor would not be deposed, at least, in the last year and a half, her position was as stable as Mount Tai.

This is also one of the reasons why she can be so straightforward to clean up Feng Debao and Concubine Rong.

When I woke up again, it was almost noon. Zhao Yanrong lay down for many days, and she didn't have much strength in her body. called Bai Lu to help her change her clothes, and only then came out to eat a bowl of shredded chicken mushroom porridge that had been simmered on the fire all night and stewed.

There is food in the stomach, and there is no panic in the heart.

Zhao Yanrong felt that today's spirit was much better than yesterday's, so she asked Dan Feng and Bai Lu to accompany her to the small garden in front of Zhaoyang Palace.

It was probably because Feng Dechang was taught a lesson by the queen yesterday, and the two eunuchs guarding the palace door just saluted and did not dare to stop them.

If it had been a few days ago, it would have been necessary to stop it, but when I think about the face of Gonggong Feng, who has always been arrogant, his face is swollen like a pig's head, and his ass is also broken, and they hummed and chirped all night last night, and they don't know if they can live, their hearts tremble. The queen has been in the palace for three months, although she has never smiled on her face, but she has never punished anyone, and I heard that when she was in her mother's house, she was also a soft and kind character.

But looking at Gonggong Feng's miserable appearance, the queen mother was not merciful at all.

If you want to say that Gonggong Feng was still transferred by the emperor, if he made the wrong rules, even if the queen mother was killed, there would be no place to find reason. As long as Niangniang doesn't get out of the courtyard wall of Zhaoyang Palace, we don't care where she slips around?

As soon as the sky clears, the sun warms up.

It's almost March now, and the peach and pear trees planted in the yard can already see small blue buds, although they have been knocked down by the wind and rain, but they still look like business.

When the flowers bloom, it will be beautiful.

Zhao Yanrong patted her hand on the peach blossom tree, turned around and asked Bai Lu: "Do you think this tree can bear peaches?" ”

Bai Lu didn't expect Niangniang to ask her this, she is Zhao Yanrong's dowry maid, and she has only been in the palace for three months, where do you know if this tree can bear fruit? So he looked at it and said, "If it can bloom, it will bear fruit, and this tree looks so thick that it must be able to produce peaches." ”

Zhao Yanrong smiled.

Not all flowers bear fruit.

Even if it can bear fruit, the fruit can be bitter, sour, hard, sweet and delicious, depending on whether the person who planted the tree can take care of it with all his heart.

It also depends on whether God gives face, whether there can be good rain and good sun.

After baking the moldy body in the sunlight for more than an hour, Zhao Yanrong was about to go back, but saw a team of eunuchs hurrying outside the palace gate.

Zhao Yanrong, who was sitting next to the rockery, glanced at Bai Lu, who immediately greeted him, and ran back in a hurry after a while.

"Niangniang, it's the eunuch who announced the decree, and the emperor has a will!"

Danfeng hurriedly helped Zhao Yanrong back to the palace, and the three of them were busy combing her hair and dressing, and applying some powder and fat, and they were busy for a while, and Zhao Yanrong came out to receive the order.

Whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, in fact, you don't need to read it, as long as you look at the attitude of the person who made the decree, you can know a thing or two.

The eunuch Dequan of the emperor's imperial study came to announce the decree. As soon as he heard the sound of the ringing of his head behind the screen, Father-in-law Dequan greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Queen Mother, Da'an, the slave will kowtow to you."

Zhao Yanrong glanced at him with a smile on her face.

"Father-in-law is working hard, the sun is blooming outside, and I have to ask you to come here."

"This is the duty of a slave, and it is also the glory of a slave." Dequan's father-in-law is nearly thirty years old, his eyebrows are clear, and his appearance is very incompatible with the sneer on his face, "Please also ask the mother to accept the order first, and then the slave will say hello to the mother." ”

Zhao Yanrong heard the three palace maids behind her gasp in unison.

Dequan unfolded Huang Ayajuan's holy decree, Zhao Yanrong knelt down to listen, and the people who listened to it also felt pain in their brains, going around, quoting scriptures, piling up countless gorgeous rhetoric, and the central idea was just one sentence.

"The queen mother has been wronged, and the queen mother is fine."

Zhao Yanrong lowered her head and listened, pouting as she listened.

What is the emperor is good, he made a mistake and wronged his wife, and his wife almost died (in fact, he has already whined), and in the end, as long as he writes a few words, he can reveal it if he is wrong.

The wife who almost lost her life had to kowtow gratefully and thank her.

Thank you, sister!
