Chapter 275: See Hanyue
"The Emperor had better not touch them." After the Queen Mother left this sentence, she brushed her sleeves away, leaving Emperor Xuan standing in place sleeplessly.
In recent years, the Queen Mother has also been involved in the previous dynasty.
When Emperor Xuan first ascended the throne, Empress Dowager Chen followed behind and listened to the government for a few years.
For this reason, the people promoted by the Empress Dowager Chen herself, and the Chen family who were stuffed into her are all over the government and the opposition, and they are also an interest group that should not be underestimated.
The reason why Emperor Xuan tolerated Empress Dowager Chen in the harem was also because he was afraid of the intertwined power relationship behind her.
Now, Emperor Xuan has finally made a move, and he chose the time of the Queen Mother's birthday, and he also wanted to take advantage of the Queen Mother's negligence to make a prelude.
"Your Majesty, it's only the second watch." The chamberlain stood at the door of the temple and said to the tall, lonely figure inside.
"I'm sleepy! I don't feel well! Emperor Xuan said.
"Your Majesty, the slave will give you the golden pill?" Inner waiter.
"Well, go to Weiyang Palace to pick up Chen Jieyu and Gong Meiren." Emperor Xuandao.
……
In the night, the two shoulders hurried to the Chengtian Palace.
There are two beauties sitting on their shoulders, it is Chen Jieyu and Gong Meiren.
Both of them are Emperor Xuan's newly favored concubines, Chen Jieyu is twenty-eight years old, from a famous family, and was promoted by Emperor Xuan to three levels as soon as she entered the palace.
Gong Meiren has a peerless appearance, is from a humble background, is attached to Chen Jieyu, and lives in Weiyang Palace with her.
Emperor Xuan has become more and more obsessed with pills and beauties in recent years, but whenever he is in a bad mood, he uses this to vent his inner resentment.
After the two of them just got married, Emperor Xuan had already taken Jindan.
After taking the pill, Emperor Xuan seemed to be twenty years younger. At most in one night, even the four maidens.
Chen Jieyu and Gong Meiren served the most, and they were also the two most satisfactory to Emperor Xuan.
In that room, after Empress Dowager Chen returned to the palace, she also sat down overnight until dawn.
Because she was in the palace, thinking of what her cousin Zhu Ningfeng entrusted to her, Liu Mengyan deliberately got up a few minutes earlier than usual.
After combing her hair briefly and applying a little powder, Bitong waited for Liu Mengyan to change into a light blue skirt, and then helped her out of Changle Palace.
The two went all the way to the Chaolu Palace where Princess Hanyue lived.
Bitong has always been cautious, otherwise Liu Mengyan would not have taken her with her when she entered the palace this time.
Bypassing a secluded path, she felt more and more strange, so there were only two people now, she and her own princess, so she naturally had something to say, and opened her mouth to ask: "Princess, how do you know the road in this palace so clearly?" The slave and maid were still worried that they would not be able to find their way. ”
Liu Ruli heard a sigh in her heart, it was her secret to live again, but she didn't expect that she would inadvertently show her feet.
She paused slightly, fortunately, Bitong should have asked casually, Liu Mengyan quickly calmed down and said: "Entrusted by others to be loyal, my cousin begged me for the matter of Princess Hanyue, so I naturally did my homework earlier and asked my cousin for the road map in the palace." ”
Bitong would not suspect that Liu Mengyan was lying to herself, and muttered softly: "Why didn't the slave see it." ”
Liu Ruli smiled softly and said, "I burned it after I wrote it down, of course I didn't show it to you." After all, this matter has something to do with the palace, and if it is known that the cousin has leaked the road map in the palace in private, it will be difficult to fall into the mouth. ”
Although Bitong is a maid, seeing Liu Mengyan's half-truth, she immediately dispelled her doubts.
Liu Ruli saw that she believed it, so she couldn't help but sigh, and secretly said in her heart that this girl couldn't hide her more and more. It's just that being able to hide it for a while is a moment, and it's best to hide it for a lifetime.
It's not that she doesn't believe in Bitong's sincerity, it's just that this kind of unbelievable thing is difficult to accept.
Liu Mengyan suppressed the mixed thoughts in her heart, and the two came to Chaolu Palace without saying a word.
Because the hour is still early, the palace gate of Chaolu Palace has not yet opened.
Bitong stepped forward, raised his hand and knocked on the palace door twice, and said to the attendant guarding the door: "Open the door, King Yi's mansion, please see Princess Hanyue." ”
Although Liu Mengyan saw Princess Hanyue at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet yesterday, her complexion was still good, but the two had no chance to talk.
What is in Princess Hanyue's heart, Liu Mengyan has to talk to her in person to know.
After standing outside the palace gate for a while, a palace maid stepped forward and led Liu Mengyan and Bitong straight to Princess Hanyue's bedroom.
Princess Hanyue hadn't gotten up yet, and when she saw Liu Mengyan, she seemed to know what she was going to say to herself next, so she raised her hand and said, "You all go down, I haven't seen Princess Yi in this palace for a long time, let's talk." ”
Of course, there is also Bitong, but Bitong still subconsciously glanced at Liu Mengyan, and when she saw Liu Mengyan nodding, she withdrew from Princess Hanyue's bedroom.
There were only two people left in the house.
Liu Mengyan also didn't pay attention to the courtesy, sat on the edge of the bed, and asked: "The princess should know the purpose of my quiet search for you this time, with all due respect to the sixth sister-in-law, the princess really wants to marry into the Dingguo Mansion and marry her cousin?" ”
It's not that Liu Mengyan doesn't believe in Princess Hanyue's affection for Zhu Ningfeng, it's just that there are never fewer mistakes in this world.
It's only been a few days since Princess Hanyue in front of her seems to have changed from the little princess she saw before, especially the panic that can't be hidden between her eyebrows.
Han Yue nodded, shook her head with tears in her eyes and said, "Even if you are as respectful as a princess, you can't help yourself in the marriage event." Liu Mengyan guessed the hidden secret, and when she saw her crying so sadly, she sighed lightly, handed over a handkerchief and said, "Is the princess depressed all day long just for this matter?" ”
Princess Hanyue took the handkerchief handed to her by Liu Mengyan, lowered her head and silently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and did not answer the question.
This noncommittal look naturally can't hide Liu Mengyan's eyes.
It's just that no matter how difficult things in this world are, or how easy they are, if that person himself has given up, others will use the seven exquisite minds, and I am afraid that it will be in vain.
"The princess doesn't do anything, she refuses to say anything, with all due respect to the sixth sister-in-law, she will wait for the princess's ending in the future, and she is afraid that she will marry away from home."
After saying this, Liu Mengyan gave a salute and turned around to leave.
"Wait, sixth sister-in-law." Princess Hanyue was completely anxious at this time, got out of bed barefoot, and shouted to Liu Ruli while running: "Is there any way for the sixth sister-in-law to help Hanyue avoid this?" ”
Liu Mengyan bent the corners of her mouth, some things really can't be forced without forcing them.
When life is in a desperate situation, you must give birth to courage.
Seeing that Han Yuegong was indeed unwilling in his heart, and his eyes showed a bit of struggle in adversity, Liu Mengyan stopped and pointed out to her the key to this matter, "He is a major event between the two countries, and now both sides have intentions, as if they are on the bow, unless the relationship between the Uzi Kingdom and the Great Tuoba suddenly deteriorates, so as to dispel the idea of the emperor and the princess marrying him." ”
Han Yue suddenly showed a wry smile: "Sixth sister-in-law, I'm afraid this won't work, now the fifth brother has made a marriage contract with Princess Elilian." How can relations between the two countries deteriorate at a good time. ”
A glimmer of light flashed in Liu Mengyan's eyes, and she opened her mouth without hurrying or slowing: "It's man-made, what if someone in the Uzi country is in chaos and doesn't want to marry Da Tuoba?" ”
Princess Hanyue was confused when she heard this, and seeing that she couldn't understand it for a while, Liu Mengyan simply said more clearly: "It's true that Princess Elilian and the fifth prince have a marriage contract, but they are still famous, and the two parties have not held a big ceremony, forming an established fact." ”
"Moreover, Elilian is a princess, and this time she is here with her royal brother. She also has a younger brother, who is very popular in the country of Uz. It is said that he is more respected than this royal brother, but he cannot become an heir because of his status. ”
Having said this, Princess Hanyue looked at Liu Mengyan with a surprised face: "Sixth sister-in-law, where did you know this?" ”
"You call me a sixth sister-in-law, and this matter is entrusted by my cousin personally, and I should do my best." Liu Mengyan avoided the important and skipped Hanyue's question.
How did she know about these secrets? Naturally, it's because of the reliving of a lifetime, but this reason is something that Princess Hanyue can never tell her.
So Hanyue was focused on how to avoid getting along at the moment, and didn't think deeply.
Liu Ruli saw that she believed what she said, and then said: "If the princess doesn't want to marry far away, then tell Mengyan whether Princess Elilian is willing to marry the fifth prince?" ”
A trace of struggle flashed in Princess Hanyue's eyes, and Liu Mengyan didn't open her mouth, silently waiting for her to make up her mind.
"Sixth sister-in-law, come with me." After being silent for a long time, Han Yue raised her eyes again, stretched out her hand and pulled Liu Mengyan to her bedside.
Liu Ruli knew that she had already made up her mind in her heart, but what was the secret in this, she had made a decision, but this little girl hesitated when the words came to her mouth?
Liu Mengyan suppressed the question in her heart, afraid that the little girl's head would retract again, so she simply decided to reach out and push it, and asked in a very soft tone: "Don't be afraid, the sixth sister-in-law just wants to help you." Tell the sixth sister-in-law, how did Princess Elilian promise the fifth prince? ”
Hanyue suddenly cried, crying very sadly, as if she wanted to pour out the tears that had accumulated for many days.
Liu Mengyan naturally knew that this little girl was suffocating, and when she stopped crying, Fang opened her mouth and comforted: "Okay, the sixth sister-in-law promised you, no matter what you tell me today, I will never say it to a third person." Don't be afraid, the sixth sister-in-law won't hurt you. ”
In the end, she is still a little girl who has never seen the sinister hearts of people, and she has been raised under the knees of Queen Wang, she is the most favored princess of Da Tuoba, Liu Mengyan is so coaxed, Hanyue finally couldn't help it.
These days guarding such a secret, Hanyue has been unable to sleep and eat.
As soon as Liu Mengyan's words fell, the little girl twitched her nose twice and said, "Sixth sister-in-law, how did you say that the queen mother would do such a thing?" ”
Something like that?
What kind of thing!
Han Yue said it clearly, but Liu Ruli was sensitive to the fact that Elilian married the fifth prince and had another hidden secret, her face was not obvious, and she asked a little faster: "What did the queen do?" ”
