Chapter 370: Xingshi asks for guilt
Zhen Ruxue turned her head to look at him, the resentment on her face could no longer be beared: "Brother Yun, you know how to defend her, you don't care what the truth of the matter is, you know how to defend her, do you know what good things she has done behind her back?!"
"Shut up!" Dongling Guyun scolded sharply, "Ru Xue, if you are like this again, don't blame me for being rude!
"Niangniang, I beg you, don't say it!" Huan Pei knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Zhen Ruxue: "Let's go back!"
"Don't worry," Duanmu Youning suddenly said lightly, "There is no wind and no waves, there must be a reason for everything, since Concubine Xian said so, then she might as well make her words clear, so that this palace can hear how this palace is talking nonsense and spreading rumors everywhere." ”
Huan Pei was in a hurry, and wanted to say something, Duanmu Youning had already continued: "Huan Pei, you wait outside the door, and you are not allowed to come in without an order from the palace." ”
Huan Pei didn't dare to speak again, let alone disobey Duanmu Youning's order, so he gritted his teeth and retreated, standing at the door and praying secretly, hoping that Zhen Ruxue would not cause too much trouble.
"Okay, you can say it," Duanmu You's expression was calm, "Tell this palace, what rumors did this palace spread to make you angry like this?"
Thinking of the palace maid's discussion, Zhen Ruxue was full of indignation, and she didn't hesitate, and immediately said: "Queen Mother, the concubine knows that you are skilled in medicine, but you can't believe it, why do you say that the concubine is pregnant with a princess, and Concubine Liang is pregnant with a prince?"
Duanmu Youning was a little surprised, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Did this palace say so?"
"The queen mother still wants to hide it?" Zhen Ruxue gritted her teeth and said, "It has already spread in the palace, saying that the queen mother took care of her in every way because she knew that Concubine Liang was pregnant with the prince, took care of her body in person, and prescribed medicine for her to protect the fetus, doesn't this explain anything?"
Duanmu Youning's eyes flickered, and he had roughly understood the cause and effect of the matter, but he only smiled faintly: "It's true, no matter what it is, as long as someone dares to say it, someone dares to believe it." Concubine Liang, what kind of gossip from the palace maids have you listened to, and you came to the palace master to ask for guilt without arguing the truth?"
"The queen mother dares to say that there is no such thing?" Zhen Ruxue seemed to be out of the way, and did not give in half a step, "If this is the case, why has the queen never seen the queen mother prescribe tocolytic pills for her concubines?"
Duanmu Youning smiled again: "You can ask the emperor about this." ”
"Brother Yun?" Zhen Ruxue was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean?"
"Meaning," Tanglin Guyun took over, "When I knew that you were pregnant, Youning asked me if I needed her to prescribe a few pairs of tocolytic pills for you, but I didn't want her to be too tired, so I said that the imperial doctor could take care of you." ”
This sentence could have explained the misunderstanding clearly, who knew that Zhen Ruxue had already penetrated into the tip of the horns at this time, and any words that would have other meanings in her ears would have other meanings, so she immediately had a resentful face and tears in her eyes: "Brother Yun, you are reluctant to let the queen mother work for me, but you are willing to let her work for the good concubine." It turns out that in your heart, I am indeed inferior to Concubine Liang, right?"
"Why do you think that?" Tanglin Guyun looked at her lightly, "It is the intention of the queen mother to let Youning be responsible for regulating the body of Concubine Liang, you also know that I was still outside the palace at that time and did not come back at all, what does this matter have to do with me?"
Zhen Ruxue seemed to be a little relieved when she heard this, but she was still a little skeptical: "Really? Is it really because the queen mother already knows that Concubine Liang is pregnant with a prince, and the concubine is pregnant with a princess?"
"No," Duanmu Youning shook his head, "Although the medical skills of this palace are not bad, they are not yet sophisticated to that extent. Now you are still pregnant, and you cannot see a man or a woman. ”
After talking for a few words, Zhen Ruxue gradually calmed down, seeing that Tanglin Guyun's face was so gloomy that she was about to drip water, she also understood that she had done something too reckless this time, and immediately said with a smile: "Brother Yun, don't be angry, it's not that I want to come to you for trouble, it's just, it's just that those palace maids are too hateful, they know nonsense when they have nothing to do, it's none of my business!"
The two glanced at each other, and Duanmu said lightly: "It seems that it is necessary for this palace to rectify the atmosphere of this harem, so that those who always chew the root of their tongues will have a long memory, so as not to cause trouble! ”
Tanglin Guyun shook his head: "It's not your fault in this matter, but as you said, the atmosphere of the harem should be rectified, and I will hand over this matter to you." ”
"The concubine is the master of the harem. These things are originally within the division," Duanmu Youning smiled, "Please rest assured that the emperor will take care of it soon." Concubine Xian, can you rest assured now?"
Zhen Ruxue was somewhat stunned, although she couldn't let go of her body and ask for guilt, but in order to give Tanglin Guyun a good impression, she still reluctantly bowed: "Please forgive the queen, the concubine is angry when she hears such a rumor, so she will be offended, and the concubine will not dare next time." ”
"That's not a reason. Tanglin Guyun suddenly spoke, "No matter what the reason, you are not qualified to come to Youning Xingshi to ask for guilt, even if it is Youning's fault, you can't." I don't care if you're a first-time offender, but if there's a next time, you can't be spared, do you hear?"
Zhen Ruxue was very aggrieved, and she was even more instinctively jealous and dissatisfied in her heart, and she opened her mouth to justify: "Brother Yun......!
"I don't want to hear any explanation. Tanglin Guyun interrupted her lightly, "Youning is the mother of a country, and she is admired by all the people, you can't be offended in the slightest, and you are not qualified to blame anything." There will be another time, and I will not show mercy. Do you hear that?"
Zhen Ruxue was angry and anxious: "Brother Yun, you ......"
"I only ask you," Tanglin Guyun's eyes froze, "Did you hear that?"
Zhen Ruxue had never seen him look so cold, so she was so frightened that she nodded involuntarily: "Yes, I heard it." ”
"Good. Tanglin Guyun waved his hand, "Go down." ”
Zhen Ruxue bit her lip fiercely, and finally turned away.
Waiting for her to leave, Duanmu Youning couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder the world often says that since ancient times, there have been many rights and wrongs in the harem, and it is really not bad at all." ”
Tanglin Guyun was silent for a long time before suddenly speaking: "I just don't understand how Ru Xue became like this, she wasn't like this when she first entered the palace. Youning, did you say I hurt her?"
Duanmu Youning didn't know what he thought, and his smile became a little light: "That's not what I said, everyone has their own experiences, and some disasters are unavoidable, no matter how many times he goes around and around, this disaster will always be waiting for him on the road of this life." ”
Tanglin Guyun looked up at her, and smiled faintly after a moment: "This is so subtle that it makes my heart furious." ”
In fact, Duanmu Youning couldn't figure out how Zhen Ruxue could become like this. But in any case, she is already like this, and it is useless to say more, so she has to say: "Maybe she just became more sensitive and suspicious because of pregnancy, and it will be fine after the child is born, and the emperor has to accommodate her during this time." ”
"I've been accommodating enough for her," Tanglin Guyun stroked his forehead, "If it weren't for the fact that I had impure motives when I made her a concubine in the first place, and just used her as a tool to have children, I wouldn't have tolerated her in every way because I felt guilty about her, and I wouldn't have allowed her so many privileges." ”
Upon hearing this, Duanmu Youning was stunned for a moment: "The emperor means that the privilege was not granted to her because of ......"
"Why? Do you think I really like her?" Tanglin Guyun looked at her quietly, "My heart is divided into two halves, half is very large, big enough to accommodate the entire Yulin Kingdom, and the other half is very small, small enough to accommodate only one person. ”
Looking at his deep eyes, Duanmu Youning realized that she seemed to have misunderstood Tanglin Guyun all along. couldn't help but be slightly moved: "Your Majesty ......"
"That's just a kind of compensation," Tanglin Guyun continued, "I want her to enter the palace, my only duty is to give birth to a prince to end the curse, I can't help but feel guilty about using her like this, so I want to give her the best I can do." Although this does not make up for the emotional damage to her, it can make my heart feel a little better. But I didn't expect it, but it was my fault that she developed her flamboyant personality because of this. ”
Duanmu Youning's heart shook, and he immediately comforted softly: "Of course, the main thing is her own reasons, otherwise, why hasn't Concubine Liang been like her?"
Tanglin Guyun shook his head, becoming more and more exhausted: "It's useless to say this now, I don't want to do anything, I just hope that the two of them are really the prince, then no matter whether the drought will end or not, no one will blame you for all this." ”
Duanmu Youning was shocked again: "What? It turns out that the emperor is doing all this for his concubines?"
"Otherwise, why do you think I agreed to make a concubine?" Donglin Guyun smiled, "Youning, although I am an emperor, I can suffer any grievances for you. Don't doubt my heart for you. From the past to the present, I have always had you alone in my heart. ”
"Your Majesty!" Duanmu was emotional, and he involuntarily threw himself into his arms. Having not touched her body for too long, Tanglin Guyun actually trembled unconsciously, but did not make further movements, just hugged her gently, and there was a faint tenderness flashing in his eyes. It's not that he doesn't want to, it's just that before everything is taken care of, he doesn't want Duanmu Youning to accept his closeness with a reluctant mood.
Early the next morning, Duanmu Youning gave the order and ordered everyone to gather, and everyone was uncertain, not knowing what was going on, and couldn't help whispering. After a while, Duanmu Youning appeared in front of everyone, and everyone immediately stopped talking, and there was no sound at the scene.
Looking around, Duanmu Youning waved his sleeves and spoke: "Since Concubine Xian was pregnant with a dragon fetus, there has been a lot of gossip in the palace, and this palace originally thought that it would be harmless for you to talk about a few words when you had nothing to do, but I have never paid attention to it. Who knew that after Concubine Liang was pregnant, this gossip intensified, and some people even said that the palace had already seen through that Concubine Liang was pregnant with a prince, and Concubine Xian was pregnant with a princess, so she looked at Concubine Liang differently and so on. Who said this, Bengong knew clearly, but he didn't want to pursue it further. Today, this palace is here to make it clear and clear: From today onwards, no one is allowed to talk about this matter for a long time, and if it is heard by this palace or if a little bit of news reaches the ears of this palace, this palace will not spare it!
