On the day the officials were released from prison, several family members from various provinces gathered outside the prison to welcome their adults out, one-on-one to the old couple, one-on-one to father, son, father and daughter, hugging each other and crying in public. The pillars of each family can survive this prison gate and see the light of day again, but they are not going to cry with joy.

Naturally, those who are happy are happy, and those who do not mourn are sad. Duanfu was seized on the same day, and was arrested and imprisoned by the three divisions.

And what greeted the queen's brother from prison was a holy decree written by Huo Jingcheng himself, and it was a glory that poured into the sky!

The queen's brother Xiao Jianzhang, the official title of Xiangguo!

Xiangguo, the position of Yunce in the past! A very popular minister, the central beam of the court!

In the imperial study, Xiao Jianzhang came to thank him after bathing and repairing.

Huo Jingcheng paced in front of him and said, "My brother-in-law has suffered, I don't know, my brother-in-law is to blame?" ”

Xiao Jianzhang knelt heavily on the ground: "If Weichen blames His Majesty, he is really stupid!" There is a negative father's teaching, and there is a negative grace of His Majesty, and he is not worthy of being a person or worthy of the surname Xiao! ”

Huo Jingcheng was relieved and muttered: "Brother wife, then help me persuade the queen." I can be beaten by her once or twice in this face, but it is only three times, can I still be beaten by her three or five times? My wife and brother are also men, we should understand that our men can be scolded by thousands of people, and they can not be slapped in the face by their wives. ”

Xiao Jianzhang said: "Your Majesty rest assured! If the queen mother bears the kindness of this husband and wife, Weichen will be the first brother to not follow! ”

Huo Jingcheng listened, his heartstrings loosened slightly, and hope was ignited.

......

After dinner, Ning Wanshu left the Nanqing Hall and went for a walk in the imperial garden to eat. The sandalwood peacock crutch "kicked" slowly on the ground, but it was not in a hurry, and it was calm and leisurely.

Qiu Yan helped her on the other side and said, "Niangniang, since we left Simian Pavilion, you have also seen Your Majesty a few times, but Your Majesty just doesn't come to our palace to stay overnight, and there is no way to go on like this." ”

Ning Wanshu sighed: "Yes, just relying on His Majesty's guilt, how long can I support it?" If you can conceive a son, it is a long-term hope. ”

Qiu Yan said: "But if Your Majesty doesn't stay overnight, there is no hope for a child." ”

Ning Wanshu didn't want to admit some things, and was deceiving herself with a little hope: "Perhaps, my legs are not good yet, Your Majesty is afraid of hurting me, okay Qiuyan, don't say it again." ”

The sky gradually darkened, the master and servant walked for a while, Ning Wanshu was a little tired, so she picked up a pavilion among the green trees and flowers and sat down.

When he was about to get up after resting, he suddenly heard a sound of footsteps outside the pavilion, and a burst of dark incense poured in, accompanied by the sound of warblers and swallows. It sounds like a group of new concubines are walking together.

"Can we meet Your Majesty?"

"Sister, don't worry, didn't Concubine Chen accompany Her Majesty to the imperial garden for a walk a few days ago? Your Majesty has been in a bad mood recently, and Concubine Chen has been invited to take a walk, so Your Majesty will naturally go back to the appointment. We just come every night, and I don't believe we can't touch it once. ”

"Yes, even Ning Zhaoyi's lame concubine has been running to the Imperial Garden one after another these days, she is so diligent with a lame, can we still be inferior to her?"

"Huh! The lame concubine ran to the imperial study during the day and the imperial garden at night, but no matter how happy she ran, Her Majesty couldn't pull her to the palace. ”

"That is, she is lame, and she can't see anything when she wears a long skirt during the day, but once she takes it off, she may not be as ugly as she looks. It's really strange that His Majesty can have that kind of mind for her, and it's good not to dislike it. ”

The new concubines discussed, and walked away through the dimly lit pavilion.

And their words came into Ning Wanshu's ears word for word, and what she didn't want to admit was finally ruthlessly revealed by several new concubines. In the darkness, Ning Wanshu's beautiful eyes were full of anger, and her heart was full of humiliation and blood, burning her inside and out! A pair of small fists in the sleeves were also clenched tightly together, and they were squeaked by her!

"Hiss-" Ning Wanshu exclaimed in pain, raised her palm to look, and saw that the sharp and delicate nails had pierced her palm, and blood beads appeared. She stared at the blood in her palm, and there was a resolute light in her eyes.

......

"Your Majesty! Oh no! Ning Zhaoyi committed suicide by hanging the beam! ”

When Huo Jingcheng strode to the Nanqing Palace, Ning Wanshu, who had committed suicide by hanging from the beam, had already been rescued, and was sitting on the ground panting and crying.

Seeing that the people were fine, Huo Jingcheng angrily waved away the palace people and asked, "What's the matter?!" Good decent, why did you kill yourself?! ”

Ning Wanshu cried pitifully, grabbed the hem of his clothes and poured out in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty forgives me, the concubine really doesn't want to live anymore, woo woo......"

Huo Jingcheng asked, "Why?" ”

Ning Wanshu sobbed: "Your Majesty, now everyone in the palace has given their concubines nicknames, they open their lame concubines, close their mouths and lame concubines, and say that you dislike your concubines and will never touch your concubines again." The concubine thought, there is no favor from you, no heirs, and third, you have to be despised and humiliated by the people in the palace, so what are you doing alive! Woohoo......"

Huo Jingcheng listened to the reason, raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, then put down his hand again and said: "There is gossip all day long, if you don't listen, there will be nothing!" How can there be nice words in the mouths of the palace people? Why do you go to your heart? It's Concubine Chen, who was also scolded by a widow with her mouth open and a widow with her mouth closed! In this harem, if you can't improve yourself, and if you are wronged, you will cry and rush to die or live, then everyone should not live! ”

Ning Wanshu cried softly for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty still doesn't know, since the concubine came back from the Southern Wilderness, she has been having nightmares every night, always dreaming of the scene of the night of the accident, and she wakes up in fright every night, which is really miserable." The concubine really wants His Majesty to accompany the concubine, with His Majesty's dragon energy, the gods and ghosts are not close, and the concubine will gradually forget that nightmare! ”

Huo Jingcheng paced back and forth on the ground for a few steps, and said, "Okay, okay, I will stay with you tonight." ”

Ning Wanshu was overjoyed in her heart: "Your Majesty ......"

Huo Jingcheng walked to her side, picked her up from the ground and put her on the bed, and said casually: "What kind of dragon qi is in town, and the gods and ghosts are not close?" It's ridiculous, I sometimes have nightmares for myself! ”

Ning Wanshu burst into tears and smiled, sat upright and leaned over to take off her boots for him, and whispered softly: "Anyway, in the heart of the concubine, Your Majesty is the sky, and Your Majesty is here, and the concubine is not afraid of everything." ”

Huo Jingcheng lay down wordlessly, and Ning Wanshu pillowed on his chest. The lamps and candles in the temple flickered, but only dim through the bed curtains. Suddenly, it was as if I had returned to the past. In the days when the army returned south, she accompanied this lonely man, occasionally having trysts in the tent, lingering in warmth......

It's not that there have been good things, but those good things disappeared with the return to Nangan, and now it's so difficult to pick them up again.

Ning Wanshu remembered in her heart, and her slender fingers began to gently stroke restlessly on his strong chest. It's just that she was silent for a long time, but she didn't wait for him to take the initiative. She was unspeakable, but she was unwilling to do so, and this opportunity was wasted.

"Your Majesty......" She suddenly leaned down, kissed him tenderly on the lips, and then, moved to his ear, and sighed: "The concubine misses Your Majesty." At the same time, the slender hand slowly moved down his chest, finally stopping at his dangerous spot to seduce him.

Unexpectedly, a gentle offensive didn't work, and he let her caress him in his dangerous place for a long time without becoming majestic.

Sure enough, he had no interest in her. Ning Wanshu's heart began to drip blood, one drop was shame and two drops were humiliation, surging and flowing all over her limbs.

At this end, Huo Jingcheng himself felt embarrassed, secretly annoyed that he still recognized people, the first time he was so uncompromising, he didn't give him a long face, and it also hurt the woman's self-esteem.

He took her hand away and said lightly: "Sleep, I'm too tired today." After speaking, he finally couldn't bear it, and added: "Try again next time." ”

Ning Wanshu was suddenly anxious, is there a next time? No! She will never pass up this opportunity! She wants to let the people of this harem take a good look, even if she is lame, the king will still be lucky!

Suddenly, she lifted the quilt and plunged into it, squirming downward, kissing his solid abs, and then down, removing his mid-pants, and serving the king with her mouth.

At this moment, Huo Jingcheng couldn't resist.

So on the second day, there was an additional record in the handover book: Junlin Nanqing Palace, Xingzhaoyi Ning's family, Erhe.

......

After the early dynasty dispersed, Huo Jingcheng regained his strength, paved the red carpet again, and invited the queen to return.

This time I went to the Xiao Mansion again, with Xiao Jianzhang in charge and the driver, Huo Jingcheng entered the gate of the Xiao Mansion, however, he was separated from the room by the queen.

Xiao Jianzhang tried to persuade him through the door, but he couldn't persuade him to open the door. He turned to Huo Jingcheng and said helplessly: "Your Majesty is angry, don't give the queen a little time, Weichen has already talked to the mother yesterday, and even had a dispute, Your Majesty and let Weichen persuade again." ”

In this way, Huo Jingcheng returned again in vain, and returned to the palace helplessly.

And the gossip about the emperor and queen in Beijing is getting worse.

In the next few days, I don't know how Xiao Jianzhang persuaded his sister, but he came to send a message to Huo Jingcheng, saying that the queen was willing to see him.

When Huo Jingcheng heard this, his morale was greatly boosted, and he made a comeback, laying out a long blanket for several miles, and invited the queen to return three times!

And this battle is much grander than the previous two. Huo Jingcheng gave an order, and all the concubines in the harem had to accompany them to welcome the return of the lord of the harem, so as to show the sincerity of the king and the loyalty of the harem.

The king's chariot drove in front, and behind was the carriage of the concubines, and the guards on both sides opened the way, and went to the Xiao Mansion in a mighty way.

Yao Duran sat in the same carriage with Concubine Shu and Concubine Jing, and the three concubines hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they chatted a few words at this time.

Concubine Shu said: "When we get to the Xiao Mansion later, we will all have to sharpen our mouths, if we still can't persuade the queen mother, according to Your Majesty's mood, we won't have a good life." ”

Concubine Jing said: "I have concluded that the queen will not come back for these three invitations." After speaking, she actually looked at Yao Duran calmly.

Yao Duran looked at her, and in an instant, she suddenly understood something! In an instant, a heart sank and sank.

Before arriving at Xiao's mansion, Xiao Jianzhang hurriedly came out to greet him. Everyone got out of the carriage and was welcomed into the Xiao Mansion.
