Chapter 282: Xiuchun
Lu Yezhen recalled the first few days of her moving to the palace, and she Xie Shan was chatting to the beginning. Mu Mei took a group of palace people and broke in in a hurry, saying that she would change the furniture for her Jinseju. At that time, Mu Mei also said some cynical things, as if she was deliberately stimulating her!
Afterwards, she was worried that Xu Ying had some bad intentions, so she didn't touch the new furniture. Later, after listening to Xie Shan's analysis, he made up his mind to move the palace.
"Now that I think about it, none of this is accidental! When the imperial concubine specially picked a Xie nobleman, she sent Mumei to mock me. Xie Guiren is a nosy person, and the imperial concubine knows that she will definitely give me advice. She was calculating step by step, but she actually 'forced' me to Yilan Palace! "And in the Yilan Palace, she has already prepared a sharp weapon for her to abort in advance!
"The imperial concubine is really scheming! It's horrible! Can you calculate your every step?! Xia Yubing couldn't help but be stunned.
On the way back from Lu Yezhen's southern tour one after another, Xu Ying grabbed her as a shield and caused her to be in a coma for several months; The Queen Mother's birthday banquet tried to harm her with poison, but she accidentally killed the Zhou sisters and other things, all of which were told to Xia Yubing one by one.
"I know no one will believe me when I say it. I don't have any evidence, so I don't dare tell anyone else. But it's all true! Let's just say that bowl of almond cheese, many people know that I am allergic to silver dancao, but that bowl is highly poisoned, and it is clearly aimed at me! If it weren't for the shallow and shrewdness, the silver pill grass would have been replaced, and the death would have been me! Lu Yezhen slapped the table hatefully: "She was afraid that I would shake her out of the evil deeds, so she wanted to put me to death three times and twice!" β
Kill somebody to do away with a witness? It's too much like the means that the imperial concubine can use. Xia Yubing came everywhere: "Actually, I came today to discuss with you, should we expose the crimes of the imperial concubine?" β
Lu Yezhen's brain was hot and said: "Exposed? Right! Let's sue her! Tell the emperor and queen how vicious she is! How many harmful deeds have been done! But after calming down, she had a lot of scruples: "Can you do it with these fragments alone?" She did it to me before, and we don't have any proof! β
"You're just worrying too much! You've fallen so far, why do you want to do so much? She's cornering you, and you're not resisting at all? At this point, you are not as good as Wei Meiren! Xia Yubing used the agitation method.
Lu Huizhen really took the bait: "What's the matter with Guan Wei Beauty?" Following her words, Xia Yubing told Wei Nan about it, and conveyed Wei Nan's willingness to form an alliance with her and join forces to sue Xu Ying.
"Let me think about it, think about it......" Lu Huizhen was extremely moved, but she didn't dare to take risks easily. She needs some time to think about it.
"Then think about it again, just not too long. Wei Meiren...... She didn't have much time left. Xia Yubing left a reminder and walked away.
East side hall.
"Little master, is it done?" Ziyue can't wait to know the outcome of the negotiations.
Xia Yubing spent a long time talking, but she drank a sip of hot tea: "She said she still has to think about it, I know what she is worried about......"
Lu Xizhen was afraid that she would not be able to move the imperial concubine at all, but hurt her own qi.
West side hall.
"Little master, did you agree to Concubine Yu's proposal?" Qing asked worriedly.
Lu Yezhen was physically and mentally exhausted, and raised her head to drink the cold tea: "I said I still have to think about it, I know what she is planning......"
Xia Yubing wanted to borrow her and Wei Nan's hands to take revenge on the imperial concubine, but she retreated.
However, what made Lu Yezhen decide to give it a go was not Xia Yubing's "bitter words", but another person's unintentional words.
Last night it rained again, and it was a rosΓ©. Early in the morning, the rain turned lighter, and the light rain reflected the green water duckweed. Lu Yangzhen stood against the railing, feeling the spring scene of "the grass is green in the rain, and the peach blossoms on the water are red" [from Tang Wang Wei's "Farewell to Rim Chuan"].
"Little lord, the morning was humid and rainy. Not good for your old wounds. Qing Qian persuaded Chaozhen to go back.
Chao Zhen shook her head and said lightly: "The wound in my heart is too painful, and I can't feel the pain on my body anymore." She insisted on going to the Imperial Garden, but she had to accompany her with an umbrella.
When I came to the Imperial Garden, the rain had completely stopped, and there was a half-rainbow hanging in the sky, which was delightful.
"Look, little lord! It's a rainbow! Qing Qian put away the umbrella and pointed to the sky excitedly, like a child.
Lu Yezhen looked up, but she couldn't help but worry about the dissipation of the rainbow after the sun came out. Beautiful things don't last long. Rejoicing in it is only adding to the troubles. Pessimism filled her heart.
Zhan Zhen turned around and wanted to leave, but saw Mu Lan and Xia Xi coming with Princess Lingyu. There was no way to avoid it, so I had to step forward and say hello: "Princess Lingyu is fine." β
"You are?" Duan Xiu didn't walk around the harem for a long time, and Lu Xizhen was covered with a veil, so she couldn't recognize it for a while.
"Princess, this is a concubine." Mu Lan reminded quietly.
"Oh, it's Zhen Niangniang! Zhen Niangniang is auspicious! Duanxiu greeted politely without a princess.
I haven't seen her for many years, and Duanxiu has grown into a slim girl. Dressed in a pink mist peach blossom embroidered dress, pretty and lovely. The end is young and not afraid of thin spring shirts, only the most leisurely!
Seeing that Lu Yangzhen didn't mean to say hello, Mu Lan had no choice but to break the embarrassment and explained: "The slave maid and the princess Xia accompanied the princess to fold a few peach blossoms, so as not to hinder the concubine." Saying that, he blessed his body and prepared to walk away with Duanxiu.
Duanxiu is a young man, always curious and good at asking. But if you are not careful, it is easy to get into trouble: "Why does Zhen Niangniang cover her face with a light veil?" She turned her head, and there was no malice in her eyes.
"I ...... The concubine did not like the smell of peach blossoms. Lu Yezhen made up an excuse.
"That's ......" Duan Xiu tilted his head suspiciously: "I have heard that Zhen Niangniang is known as 'Lady Peach Blossom', and I thought you must love peach blossoms very much!" It turned out that I was wrong. She smiled innocently: "Presumably because Zhen Niangniang's appearance is as delicate as a peach and plum, so she is called 'Lady Peach Blossom', right?" β
Lu Yezhen's body shook, and the oil-paper umbrella fell off from his hand. Noodles like peach and plum...... Now it's a distant compliment!
"Princess, don't say it!" Mu Mei frowned and shook her head at Duan Xiu. blamed her for not telling the princess that Lu Yezhen had a damaged face.
"Hehehe......" A discordant laugh came, and Mu Mei walked behind everyone with a bamboo basket. She bowed slightly to her masters, and smiled at Duan Xiu: "The princess is really innocent and innocent!" What people say, what does the princess believe? β
"What do you mean by that?" Concubine De didn't wait to see the people of Chenqi Palace, and Duanxiu naturally "shared the same hatred" with her mother. Duanxiu also didn't like the imperial concubine and the minions around her.
"The concubine is broken, the princess doesn't know?" Mu Mei covered her mouth with her hands and put on a surprised look: "Her face can't be seen, so she has to wear a veil." What do you hate the smell of peach blossoms, just coax a fool! β
"Bold! Do you dare to accuse Sang of scolding Huai and insinuating that the princess is a fool? Xia Xi shook off the dust and raised his fingers to scold Mu Mei angrily.
"Ouch! The slave and the maid are speechless, and the slave and the slave are damned! The slave has absolutely no intention of sarcastically mocking the princess! The slave just didn't want the princess to be deceived and kindly reminded her. Am I right, concubine? "Mu Mei is a typical dog who fights with human power and is a slave bully, and she doesn't take Duan Xiu and Lu Yanzhen in her eyes at all.
"You...... Licentious! Lu Huizhen couldn't bear it, and was about to rush up to teach Mu Mei a lesson. But someone struck before her.
"Slap-" A crisp slap silenced everyone present.
Duan Xiu's slap was ten percent harder, and Mu Mei's face was slapped away. She turned her face back and stared at Duan Xiu incredulously. Hasn't this Princess Lingyu always been tame and weak? Why is it like a different person today? Is it true that you have grown up and your wings are stiff?
"What are you looking at Princess Ben for? You shouldn't fight? Duan Xiu held his chest and said awe-inspiringly.
"The slave doesn't know what went wrong!" Mu Mei was not convinced.
"If you speak lightly and speak sneering at your master, you are guilty of the following! It's still light for this princess to slap you! You are the person next to the imperial concubine, you shouldn't be ignorant of the rules. If you dare to come out and be embarrassed in the future, this princess and mother don't mind teaching you a good lesson for the imperial concubine! Don't get out of here! Duan Xiu flicked his sleeves, as if he was angry.
Mu Mei is not good at making a big deal out of it, and it is known to the master and Concubine De. I could only swallow my anger and "roll" in a gloomy manner. Before leaving, he didn't forget to glance at Lu Xizhen fiercely.
"Zhen Niangniang is okay, right? Can you be frightened? Duanxiu, who knew the truth, comforted him tactfully.
"Thank you, princess, for standing up for the concubine. But it is really not worth it to offend the imperial concubine for the sake of the concubine. For Duanxiu's approach, Lu Yezhen was grateful but disagreed.
"What's not worth it? All I know is that I'm happy! When she was a child, she didn't understand anything, she only felt that she was a concubine who was fostered in Jingyi Palace, and she should endure and retreat. I've always been a man with my tail between my legs.
But now it's different, she's grown up, and she's no longer the timid little girl she used to be. The deeds of the eldest sister Ruiyi made her understand the truth that "life must be happy". As a princess, she may have to face a lot of involuntary situations, but at least her heart has to be her own decision!
Duan Xiu broke a peach blossom with the most beautiful bloom and put it in Lu Yangzhen's hand: "The people in the harem are all masters who bully the soft and fear the hard. If you show weakness, they will become even more violent. So, we shouldn't be afraid of them, we're going to rebel! One day, let them taste fear! With that, he scurried down into the depths of the garden.
Lu Yezhen looked at the peach blossom in her hand blankly, and subconsciously read in her mouth: "Resist...... Rebel against ......"
"That's right!" Duan Xiu suddenly turned around and called Lu Haozhen, which made her come back to her senses: "What? β
"Although I don't know if it will help Zhen Niangniang's injury, but there is a good light mark cream in my mother's palace! Later, I'll ask someone to send it to Zhen Niangniang. When the mother's injury is healed, don't call people to bully anymore! Duan Xiu's smile is better than the most beautiful scenery in spring.
