Chapter 166: The Man Left Behind by the Empress
Zhou Huan smiled, but walked by mistake. She didn't feel that she and the Shen family had anything to talk about.
Who knows, Shen didn't have any dissatisfaction with Zhou Huan's estrangement, she hooked her lips and smiled, and turned (shēn) away. In the end, (shēn) Zi was still unsatisfactory, and she coughed out of breath at a critical time.
Zhou Huan sighed, took out a medicine bottle from his sleeve and gave it to Yuxi. "Tell Shen that she needs to ask a doctor for a good look at her illness."
When Yuxi heard this, he was stunned.
has been following Zhou Huan for so long, but she has never seen such a master.
"What's the matter, I'm just pitiful to the Shen family."
Zhou Huan looked at Shen's distant back in a daze, a little more vicissitudes because of coughing, and the girl next to her (shēn) was afraid that she would have died in Huangquan now.
In the end, she is just a poor person who wants to survive, when she died in the last life, she seemed to be the eldest princess, but now because of herself, Zhou Meng, the opponent, was thrown to her.
I think there is a reason for this, which is why she cares so much.
Soon, Yuxi sent the medicine back, but his face was even more confused.
"Princess, Shen asked me to tell you......" Yuxi shook his head and conveyed the words word for word.
Shen said, "She has written down the great kindness of the Seventh Princess, and after two (rì) she will naturally come to visit the Seventh Princess with gifts." ”
After finishing speaking, Zhou Huan nodded, but she was not interested in Shen's gift. It's just a gesture.
It was Yuxi, but she sighed again, she had lived for so long, but she had never seen a woman with a temperament like a chrysanthemum like Shen.
When she said the words of gratitude to the princess, she was still neither humble nor arrogant, and there was no half of flattery in her words, which is really strange?
……
……
The ceremony in the palace is very troublesome, but there is an ancestral system to be found, so after Zhou Huan and his party arrived, they kept kneeling and worshipping, and then led the way.
Even, because of the huge momentum, Zhou Huan didn't even have time to take a second look at Concubine Ming.
In the crowd, she just saw that everyone was surrounded by a tall (shēn) woman whose appearance had not been ravaged by the years. Looking at it from a distance, this Ming Guifei's appearance is really a bit like Qi Heng.
But such a woman has actually set off such a big storm in the harem, and what is the hidden, unknown part?
"Princess, it's your turn." Yuxi on the side cautiously reminded Zhou Huan in Zhou Huan's ear.
Zhou Huan came back to his senses at this time, according to the rules, everyone had to go up alone to greet Concubine Ming. But......
She clenched the fist in her sleeve tightly, and then finally lowered her head, and then obediently knelt in front of Concubine Ming.
Lowering her eyes, she could only see the red embroidered shoes of Ming Guifei and the pleated skirt that had been rolled out.
"Meet the concubine."
Zhou Huan said loudly, it seemed that there was no difference from the previous person.
Concubine Ming, who was sitting there, smiled with her eyebrows, and she could see that the years were friendly to her, so there was no trace of time on her face, and her appearance was still her strength.
"Good boy, get up." Concubine Ming nodded, and let the grandmother next to her (shēn) personally help Zhou Huan up.
It seems that he is just an ordinary child, how can he have the ability to set off such a big storm in the capital?
……
Finally, the group sent Concubine Ming to the palace safely.
Unexpectedly, on such an important occasion as today, the empress did not come, and the emperor, accompanied by the concubine, stood there and accepted the repeated bows of the concubine.
Then after the complicated and cumbersome etiquette was over, the emperor personally stepped forward to help Concubine Ming up.
The bright yellow (shēn) shadow looks a little better than the first two (rì), the traces of time on the emperor's face are not obvious, and the Ming concubine is too, and it is important for the two of them to stand together.
The emperor said to the woman in front of him who had been separated for many years with a soft expression: "Concubine, I have suffered you all these years. ”
Hearing this, Concubine Ming shook her head, and there were a few more tears in her eyes when she looked at the emperor. "Being able to do something for this world is a blessing for concubines."
Qi Heng on the side waited here early, and when he saw his mother who had been separated for many years, Qi Heng immediately knelt on his head and said to Ming Guifei: "Erchen meets his mother, and his mother is a thousand years old." ”
As soon as these words came out, Qi Heng was immediately stunned on the ground, looking nervous for two points.
It stands to reason that the Empress of the Zhenggong Palace is still alive, so on this occasion, Qi Heng should keep a distance from Concubine Ming.
Concubine Ming watched her son treat her so carefully, and there were more tears of grievance in her eyes. She thought of her departure from the palace at the beginning, isn't it because of this?
Queen Jiang!
And she is also a smart person, intentionally or unintentionally, the emperor also noticed her grievances, and at the same time, the emperor's expression became a little colder, and he turned to the prince next to him (shēn).
"What about the Queen? Why didn't you come here? ”
Of course, the prince knew his master's temper, and he had to give the emperor a step down, so he said to the emperor respectfully: "Back to the emperor, the empress jin (rì) (shēn) is not well. ”
Hearing this, the emperor didn't speak again and just nodded, but everyone saw the displeasure in his expression.
However, this can be regarded as a comfort to Concubine Ming. Besides, this Ming Guifei has always been the most sensible concubine in the palace, so at this moment, she was immediately born and comforted the emperor, and gave herself a good reputation.
In the canonization ceremony of today (rì), apart from this small episode, there is nothing else (qíng) that happens.
It was also unexpected, I heard Yinyue say that the emperor wanted to give the position of the imperial concubine to Concubine Ming, but now it seems that it is not.
Today's Zhou Huan is not the protagonist, so she just revealed her existence at the right time, and then respectfully watched the end of all this in front of her.
After it was over, Zhou Huan suddenly remembered that he had finally come to the palace, and it was time to take a look at Qi Yu's mother, the queen mother
Although Zhou Huan didn't have so much affection for the queen mother, the eldest princess was imprisoned in the eldest princess's mansion by the introduction (jìn) before, so Zhou Huan felt that he should go over for Qi Yu.
Thinking about it, Zhou Huan did not hesitate at all, but turned directly (shēn) and came to the gate of the queen's palace.
But unfortunately, when she just walked to the gate of the queen's palace, she unexpectedly heard the sound of argument inside. And when she abandoned the bell and listened carefully, she unexpectedly heard the emperor's voice.
Thinking that he had just left the banquet for a while, why did the emperor suddenly appear here?
After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Huan suddenly remembered that it seemed that the emperor had left the palace banquet not long after the banquet began.
In the Kunning Palace at this moment.
The emperor sat at the cold stone table in the palace, staring motionlessly at the empress in front of him. "I thought you would be sensible!"
"The emperor wants to take Concubine Ming back, as if he has completely forgotten what happened back then (qíng), but the concubines can't, and the concubines promised the master what they would remember." The queen sighed, "So the emperor, aren't the concubines sensible enough?" ”
"Presumptuous!"
But who knew that the emperor suddenly got angry and overturned the tea cup on the table on his shoulder. "I have already said that when there is no one else, the word concubine is not what you should call."
The emperor's voice was extremely impatient, and it seemed that Zhou Meng had met such an emperor for the first time.
In Kunning Palace, the queen's voice was still coming out intermittently.
But (shēn) is a delicate woman, and Zhou Huan still heard the sadness and loneliness in this voice.
"The concubine understands." The queen saluted to the emperor, "But the concubine has been the queen of the emperor for so many years, these two words should also be worthy." ”
For some reason, the queen's voice suddenly became a little more firm, and then she also stood firmly in her position, unwilling to take a step away.
Like, the word concubine in her mouth. I didn't want to let go of anything.
"You ......"
"I tell you, if you don't know what to do like this again, I won't be able to tolerate you, don't think that you are the person left by the queen, I can't help it."
The emperor yelled at the queen angrily, but the queen continued to stand there without any reaction.
Zhou Huan outside the door was suddenly frightened by the conversation in the courtyard, what is it called? The one left behind by the Queen?
She clutched the handkerchief in her hand tightly and wanted to turn (shēn) away, but in her panic, she accidentally stepped on the stone, so she panicked even more and hurriedly turned (shēn) and left here.
When she fled, she didn't even care if the people behind her could see her clearly.
The events in the palace (qíng) left Zhou Huan with a lot of doubts in her heart, so she was in a trance all day.
It just so happened that Chu Xingchen had just taken Qi Yu's pulse, and now he had come over to take Zhou Huan's pulse.
"Chu Xingchen? I have something to ask you? After it was over, Zhou Huan pulled Chu Xingchen and didn't let him leave.
"Anyway, what is the big thing that needs my guidance?" Then, Chu Xingchen still asked informally.
Zhou Huan asked directly, "Has the emperor ever had any other queens?" ”
The words were amazing, but Chu Xingchen laughed when he heard this. "Princess, I said you shouldn't really be affected by Qi Yu."
"Don't make a fuss." Zhou Huan shook his head, and said in a serious manner: "Chu Xingchen, do you know all the things about Empress Jiang (qíng)?" ”
At this moment, Chu Xingchen was completely puzzled.
He glanced at Zhou Huan, "Didn't I tell you about the things in the palace (qíng) last time?" Rest assured, I vouch for it with my personality, it's all true. ”
During this time, Zhou Huan really had time to catch him, so he asked him to tell the messy things in the capital (qíng). Up to the palace, down to the rumors (qíng).
