Chapter 175: The Gap
Empress Dowager Yuan was really unhappy at this time, even if Empress Ji, who was "sick" on this day, made a special appearance and led the concubines to the Chunyu Palace to congratulate her, she was still faint, said a few words and sent away the army, so she left Yun Fenghuang and Wei Hengyan, and asked why the emperor didn't go to Huzhu Palace yesterday in the end?
The second concubine glanced at each other, Wei Hengyan lowered his eyes, and said cautiously, "Last night, the concubine had already rested, and I heard from the palace people that His Majesty was here, and I hurried out to greet him, and I saw ...... I saw His Majesty's expression...... The concubine didn't dare to ask more, so she congratulated His Majesty and mentioned the little prince, but His Majesty didn't answer, and the concubine was ...... The concubine served His Majesty and placed it. ”
Hearing this, the queen was stunned for a moment, and asked Yun Fenghuan, "I heard that the emperor went to the Xuanqing Palace last night, what is going on?" ”
Yun Fenghuan immediately knelt down, and his vocal cords choked, "The concubine doesn't know how to anger Your Majesty, she was obviously going to be resettled yesterday, but Your Majesty said to leave as soon as she left." ”
"......" Empress Dowager Yuan had a calm face, and she still had a little suspicion that these two concubines were united, and under the guise of helping Yuan Neem's mother and son speak, they gave Huzhu Palace eye medicine, but it was not easy to say anything.
After all, everyone knows that the emperor has been quite fond of the real concubine these days.
The real concubine was thrown away by the emperor at night in order to admonish her, and changed it to Lin Xing Wei Zhaorong, which is not enough to do her best?
You can't let the real concubine chase her to Yijia Palace and continue to persuade the emperor, what is the difference between forcing the emperor to see Yuan Neem?
It's not easy for Empress Dowager Yuan to do this herself, let alone a real concubine?
"During these days, there have been constant things in the harem, and the emperor must have been unhappy and wronged you." Empress Dowager Yuan is not Yuan Neem Niang, seeing that the second concubine failed to ease Yuan Neem's mother's cheeks, although she was angry and silent for a while, she still piled up a pleasant face, and Wen Yan said, "It's also mourning the family, I know that you often serve the emperor, and it is very hard, but you are still ......."
"What did the Queen Mother say?" Yun Fenghuan hurriedly interrupted her, and said with true feelings, "Sharing worries for the Queen Mother and Your Majesty was originally what the concubines should do. Moreover, the mother's willingness to entrust the concubines with their affairs is a blessing for the concubines. ”
Wei Hengyan, of course, seconded the proposal.
The two flattered the Empress Dowager Yuan for a while while before the Empress Dowager sighed and let them leave.
It's just that after leaving the Chunyun Palace, Yun Fenghuang invited Wei Hengyan to go to Huzhu Palace together.
Although it was said that Empress Ji came out today, Empress Dowager Yuan did not mention that she didn't need Yun Fenghuang to act as the queen and let the queen concentrate on recuperation, how could she take the initiative to hand over power?
That must be to continue to visit Yuan Neem Niang and fulfill the responsibility of the lord of the six palaces!
Wei Hengyan also went, in addition to appreciating the situation of this once-prosperous senior of the three palaces and six courtyards at the moment, but also to give Empress Dowager Yuan the impression that she still cares about Yuan Neem's mother and son.
As for whether the Queen Mother believes it in her heart or not, then there is no way, anyway, the posture has done it.
It's just that the second concubine came to Huzhu Palace with a lot of laughter, but she ate a closed door at the palace gate.
The palace maid guarding the door trembled, "Mother...... Empress...... My mother-in-law said, "It's still lacking at this time, don't you ...... No ...... Don't worry about the harem, please...... Please go back! ”
"How is Yue Xiuyuan doing now?" Hearing this, Yun Fenghuan picked up the curtain from the chariot, and asked, "Where is the eldest prince?" Are you okay? ”
Seeing her appear, the palace maid was like a mouse seeing a cat, and she fell to her knees directly with a "plop", and she didn't dare to raise her head, "Go back, back to the real concubine Niangniang, my mother has woken up." ”
As for the eldest prince, he didn't say anything.
Presumably not very good.
Yun Fenghuang spoke softly, and interrogated carefully, but the palace maid didn't know if she didn't dare to say it or really didn't know, she knew that Yuan Neem had woken up, and personally ordered not to accept harem visits, and everything else was "Please forgive the mother, the maid doesn't know." ”
In the end, Yun Fenghuang sighed: "Good life, serving Xiu Yuan and the eldest prince." ”
Putting down the curtain, he ordered the guard of honor to return to the Spring Palace.
"Queen Mother, Xiu Yuan suffered such a big crime yesterday, and now she personally ordered not to disturb, and the concubine naturally did not dare to forcibly enter." After a while, she and Wei Hengyan had a sad face, and stood under the hall with Yuan
The Queen Mother complained, "But if you go back to the palace like this, the concubines are not at ease!" After thinking about it, I can only come and beg you to call the shots! ”
Empress Dowager Yuan didn't say a word, but the hand on her knee trembled slightly.
She closed her eyes, and after a while, she squeezed out a voice from between her teeth, "Mourning...... Got it! Go back. ”
Before Wei Hengyan could say anything, he was knocked down by Yun Fenghuan silently, and then quickly shut up.
"That ......" Yun Fenghuan's face was worried, sincere, just like Yuan Neem is her half-sister, hesitantly blessed, "The concubine retires, and asks the Queen Mother to take care." ”
Empress Dowager Yuan pressed the armrest of the chair, and waited for the two concubines to go away, before she said "heh", and said to herself, "Take care?" The mourning family wants to take care, but this ...... Can you take care?! ”
"Don't blame Your Majesty." Dipping Liu sighed, held her hand, and said in a low voice, "Over the years, Your Majesty has had to learn too many things, and there is actually not much to get along with Yue Xiuyuan. Xiu Yuan's temper ...... Every time His Majesty goes back to see her, he either needs to comfort her, or he has to listen to her incessant complaints...... Coupled with Xiu Yuan's temper when she was a child, Your Majesty ...... Your Majesty is willing to tolerate her for a long time, and she has protected her pregnancy so far, mainly because I feel sorry for you! ”
These words could not comfort the Empress Dowager Yuan, she looked at the palace bricks not far away in a daze, and muttered, "It's just a trip to Huzhu Palace, and I feel sorry for my family...... Why are you reluctant to do such a small thing? ”
Without waiting for Dip Willow to answer, she laughed miserably and said, "Yes, this is the fault of the mourning family." When they were all young, the mourning family felt sorry for the emperor and was tired of Neem Niang, but they had to take Neem Niang by their side from time to time to raise her. In order to keep the emperor from being bullied, he has always deliberately not let them get along more, and coaxed the emperor to sharpen his patience with Neem, so as not to be angry when he meets someone who is not good to get along with in the future, so as to lose his calm; ”
"In private, I always use the banner of the emperor to send this and that to Neem Niang, and spread all kinds of good and obedient ......"
So as she grew older, Chunjia patiently and patiently waited for the opportunity to be the master of the house and no longer be affected by anything.
At that time, Empress Dowager Yuan didn't expect that she would be soft-hearted, so she knew that Chun Jia didn't care much about Yuan Neem, but she didn't care at all.
Now that I think about it, this may be retribution for her who has nothing to do under her knees, and can only raise her concubine as a parent, and Yuan Neem, who is a niece and future daughter-in-law, has a blood relationship with her, even if the child is ignorant, willful and nonsense, but when she gave her all kinds of surprises and thoughtfulness in the name of Chunjia over the years, she really took the effort to understand, care and coax this child...... After nearly 20 years of getting along day and night, why does she think she can say let go?!
At that time, Chunjia and Yuan Neem Niang were still young and innocent, and she was the initiator.
Now...... Now Chunjia is easy to let go, but Empress Dowager Yuan can't get out.
Yuan Neem was confused in the past, and the Queen Mother sighed on her face, but she thought indifferently in her heart, such a discontented fuss, one day, she would be taught to know the consequences.
It wasn't until this moment that the Queen Mother found out that she really felt sorry for her niece.
She was reluctant to let Yuan Neem Niang be annihilated in Chunjia's harem like this.
Even after a few years, Chunjia didn't remember that the concubine with the title of "Yue" had been envied by the harem of the previous dynasty.
Empress Dowager Yuan asked Dip Willow sadly, "Is the mourning family not ruthless enough, or is the emperor too cold-hearted?" ”
Dipping Willow lowered his head, pondered for a while, and then whispered, "Niangniang, these are all things that can't be helped...... If you want to blame, you can only blame Yue Xiuyuan, regretting it too late. As you know, although His Majesty has a lot of dissatisfaction with Xiu Yuan Niangniang, he has never lost Xiu Yuan's face like this before. If the eldest son of the emperor had not been born prematurely, His Majesty would definitely not treat Hu Zhu badly in the future
Palace. ”
Although Chunjia may not have much sincerity towards Yuan Neem Niang, he is the Son of Heaven and rich from all over the world, for the sake of the face of the Empress Dowager Yuan, he is rich and honorable to raise Yuan Neem Niang for a lifetime, and then settle their children, this tolerance is always there.
"......" Empress Dowager Yuan was stunned for a long time and said, "What you said is true." ”
However, on this day, she still went to Taichu Palace in person to persuade Chunjia
Go to Huzhu Palace and see your eldest son.
Chunjia agreed very calmly, and didn't even need the Queen Mother to repeat, just went out, he stopped on the corridor of the hall, turned his head, and looked at the Empress Dowager Yuan, "Queen Mother, in fact, the child doesn't care about seeing the child, after all, over the years, there have been more children who have gone away, and they are still a little sad once or twice." The number of times is too much, and the child has long been used to it. ”
When he said this, he was so unfazed that he was almost cold.
Empress Dowager Yuan was in a trance, and only then did she come back to her senses, what Chunjia really didn't want to see was Yuan Neem.
Melia Niang, this is the "Ji Lang" who has completely lost her heart?
The Queen Mother smiled self-deprecatingly, "Just pity the poor queen mother, okay?" ”
"Why should the Queen Mother be like this?" Chunjia stared at her for a moment, sighed, reached out to support Empress Dowager Yuan's arm, and said in a soft tone, "The child is just annoyed that she doesn't know the queen mother's care and love for her, and the tired queen mother is running around and worrying about it so far...... Since the queen mother still pitied her, the child ...... As before, it's okay to take the time to coax her. In short, as long as the queen mother is happy, the child is willing to do anything. ”
He said that he wanted more than twenty-four filial pieties, and there were twenty-four filial pieties, and the Empress Dowager Yuan was moved for a moment, but she felt that her feet were like falling into an ice cellar.
She watched the emperor leave and go to the direction of Huzhu Palace, and after a long time, she returned to the Chunyun Palace with the support of the dipping willows.
"Mother, what's wrong?" On the way to dip the willow, I noticed that the Empress Dowager Yuan had a dense cold sweat on her forehead, and she was very worried, and she was about to order someone to prepare a hot soup bath, but she was stopped by the Empress Dowager Yuan and ordered to clear the field, and then took her hand and asked the words that made the Dipping Willow tremble unconsciously, "Dipping the willow, you said, the emperor has been good to Neem Niang over the years, is ...... Is it to comfort the mourning family, or, in order to, to appease the mourning family?! ”
Comfort and appeasement are only one son, but the meaning is very different.
Especially at this moment, there was an uproar in Dip Liu's heart, and there was a moment of aphasia, she pinched her palm hard, and the pain calmed it down, so she was dumb and asked instead of answering, "Niangniang, who is this rumor that is moving forward with you?!" You raised Your Majesty single-handedly, what kind of person is he, you still don't know?! Your Majesty sincerely respects you as your mother, not to mention Ji, His Majesty has always been to them, only defensive and disgusting, without the slightest closeness; It's the one from Jiashan Palace, Your Majesty has not mentioned it to you over the years, why did he take the initiative to ask for peace once? There is also the Holy Birthday Day, if you don't remind me, in the past two years, Your Majesty almost forgot the birthday of the Empress Dowager Qu several times...... You must not give that traitor and take advantage of the weakness! ”
"Your Majesty is now pro-government, his position is not stable, and he needs you to help him stabilize the rear, if you are suspicious of him, this is not the heart of the person behind the scenes?!"
Be sober, Niangniang, Chun Jia is pro-government, even if he has been pretending in front of you before, the connivance and favoritism of Yuan Neem Niang is to see your sincerity and sincerity towards this niece, and to show you, lest you and Yuan can't help but give up and even backhand him...... But that's all in the past!
You turned your face against him at this time, can you draw it?!
The current situation is that the Empress Dowager Yuan, Yuan Neem Niang, Yuan Liniang, and the entire Yuan family need Chunjia, but Chunjia does not necessarily need the Yuan family!
Even in this harem, he has his own mother, the Empress Dowager Qu, and the real concubine Zhenchangzi who is personally supported by the Empress Dowager...... At this time, don't say that you are suspicious, it is ironclad evidence, as long as Chunjia does not take the initiative to expose it, then you can only pretend to be confused, right?!
"......" Empress Dowager Yuan heard the meaning of Dip Liu's words, laughed miserably, and said, "What you said is true." ”
This is the second time she's said it today.
How helpless I was when I said the previous sentence, and how lonely I was when I said this sentence.
