Reminiscing about the past Chapter 6 The years when Du Ruosheng was still the queen (3)
After Yan Qinghan's humiliation of herself last time, Du Ruosheng swore that she would never give Yan Qinghan a good look again, plus now that there is a maid named Tan'er by her side, following her all day long, Du Ruosheng is about to go crazy.
Just when he was bored, a big event came to him.
"See the queen mother, the queen mother announced that you will go to Shoukang Palace." When Du Ruosheng heard that the Queen Mother was looking for him, he could guess that there must be nothing good.
Sure enough, when she arrived at Shoukang Palace, she was sitting in the main hall with a majestic face.
"Concubine, see Queen Mother." Although Du Ruosheng was extremely disgusted with Lu Lan, he couldn't cause trouble after all, so he still behaved very respectfully.
"The queen and her relatives have been in the Wan Dynasty for a month, and they still get along well with the emperor?"
She doesn't know if she gets along or not, every day is her eyes and ears, isn't this knowingly asking? Du Ruosheng thought so in his heart, but he couldn't show it at all.
"It's quite harmonious, and I'm worried about my mother." Du Ruosheng smiled slightly and replied softly.
"Okay, then I'll be relieved. However, there is still one thing for the mourning family to explain to the queen. ”
"The queen mother said that the concubine should do her best."
Du Ruosheng said this, but in his heart, he thought that your son might not want me to take care of it.
"The queen won't forget the contents of the secret letter that the mourning family sent you at this time when you are with your relatives." Hearing Lu Lan mention the secret letter, Du Ruosheng's expression suddenly became a lot more solemn, it seems that she wants to give her an answer today.
This Lu Lan herself would come to greet her almost every day before, she always closed the door to herself, and now she knows that she and Yan Qinghan don't get along well, but she took the initiative to call herself over, isn't this obviously to make outsiders think that she has defected to her.
Today, whether she answers or not, when she goes out of this door, she can't get rid of it.
She guessed that Lu Lan must have expected this to be the case, so she would ask her today.
Seeing that she had been silent, Lu Lan seemed to have lost her patience, and asked again, "How did the queen think about it?" Or are you not worried about your family and people in Dongchuan? ”
Seeing Lu Lan threatening her, Du Ruosheng was not afraid, even if she didn't agree to her, she didn't dare to do anything to Dongchuan at this time, after all, no matter how powerful she was, she was not the emperor, Yan Qinghan was sitting in that position after all, and these ministers and soldiers would not dare to turn the sky upside down.
Thinking about it this way, how could Du Ruosheng agree to Lu Lan's request and become her meticulous work, she Du Ruosheng is the most unseen person in her life, how can she become this kind of person.
"The Queen Mother, I'm afraid that Ruosheng will live up to the intentions of the Mother, and ask the Queen Mother to find someone else." Du Ruosheng said respectfully, but at this moment, Lu Lan on the stage was suppressing his anger.
"Okay, since you are so ignorant of current affairs, then don't blame the mourning family for not giving you a chance."
Du Ruosheng was in danger, looked up at her fearlessly, and said in a deep voice: "Then Ruosheng listens to it." ”
Then, Ruosheng turned around and left, she knew that her departure not only completely offended the Queen Mother Lu Lan, but also deepened Yan Qinghan's suspicion of herself, and even the little good impression she had just established would be ruined.
Since Lu Lan didn't achieve her goal, how could she let her go so easily.
I only heard her say sharply on stage: "Stop! Do you think that if you leave the Shoukang Palace of the mourning family today, you will be able to throw yourself into the emperor? Don't be stupid, even if you don't use it for me, since you have entered the Shoukang Palace of the mourning family today, the mourning family will not let you return in vain, since you don't agree to the mourning family, then don't want to live well with him. ”
Du Ruosheng expected her to say this, stood still, and said softly: "Ruosheng doesn't care." ”
"If you think that if you tell the emperor the truth, he will choose to believe you, that's fine, but do you really think that the mourning family is not capable of doing anything to you Dongchuan?" Lu Lan kept using Dongchuan as a threat, wanting Ruosheng to have no chance to resist.
"If the Queen Mother really wants to do this, if Sheng dies, and then the two countries are at war, I am afraid that the emperor has just sat on the throne, and there will be many people who covet it."
Then, continue to walk forward until you are out of the main hall and leave the Shoukang Palace.
Lu Lan originally thought that she agreed to come here with a kiss because she was afraid that she would be unfavorable to the Dongchuan royal family, but now her resistance really surprised her, it can be seen that this woman is by no means as easy to control as she imagined, but since she is not at her mercy, it is naturally impossible for her to let her go easily.
On that day, when Du Ruosheng returned to the Huaqing Palace, she was accompanied by a reward from the Empress Dowager Lu Lan of Shoukang Palace.
"The Queen Mother gave the queen mother, five hundred taels of gold, twenty pieces of silk, and a pair ......of rosewood crystal bracelets."
Listening to the eunuch's report, Du Ruosheng only felt helpless, this must be what Lu Lan said that he would not let himself return in vain, Du Ruosheng ignored it, and walked straight back to the palace.
Coming out of the Queen Mother's Palace, coupled with these valuable rewards, no one can feel that they and the Queen Mother are already in the same boat, and Yan Qinghan at that time was just a teenager who had only reached the age of nineteen, how could he know that all this was just a play made by the Queen Mother.
Yan Qinghan knew about the Queen Mother's reward for Du Ruosheng, and went to Shoukang Palace.
"Your Majesty, why are you here today?" When Lu Lan saw Yan Qinghan, she asked kindly, if she didn't know, she really thought she was a good mother.
"Queen Mother, why do you want to reward the queen with so many things?" Yan Qing asked coldly.
"That's because the queen mother likes Ruosheng's child! Doesn't the emperor like this beautiful marriage that the queen mother has achieved for you? ”
Lu Lan's face was full of joy for a long time, and she couldn't tell that she had just been angry because of Du Ruosheng.
"I like it, it's because I like it that I came to thank my mother and chose such a virtuous queen for my son."
Yan Qinghan suppressed his anger and said with a happy look.
"In this way, the queen mother will rest assured, and if Ruosheng will take care of you in the future, the queen mother will be comforted."
Lu Lan told Ruosheng that he was his own person, even if Yan Qinghan wanted to trust Du Ruosheng at the moment, the doubt in his heart had outweighed trust.
Leaving from Shoukang Palace, Yan Qinghan thought about it for a long time, and finally he still wanted to ask Du Ruosheng in person, although Du Ruosheng looked a little strange on weekdays, but his character was still upright, and he always felt that she would not easily agree to the queen mother.
When he came to Huaqing Palace, Du Ruosheng was already asleep in the dormitory.
Tan'er appeared in front of him.
"Did Du Ruosheng fall asleep when he came back? Have you ever gone with her to Shoukang Palace? Yan Qinghan asked.
"After receiving the reward, I went to sleep, and the Queen Mother said that she could only go to the queen alone, so she went alone." Tan'er replied truthfully.
"And how did she react when she returned?"
"No, I just look a little tired and unfocused."
"Your Majesty, Tan'er thinks that Niangniang is actually..."When Tan'er just wanted to say something, Du Ruosheng on the bed made a sound.
Tan'er approached and called softly: "Niangniang, the emperor is here." ”
As soon as Du Ruosheng heard the emperor's words, his eyes, which were originally closed, opened them with a brush, and then sat up and looked at the two people standing beside him.
Then he got out of bed and bowed down: "The concubine sees the emperor." ”
"You're going to see the queen today?" Yan Qinghan asked directly with a questioning tone.
Du Ruosheng knew that he would not have anything else to do when he came to find him, his news was really well-informed, and he knew everything so quickly, in fact, he had to ask himself well, and he could still talk to him well, but seeing Yan Qinghan's tone, he suddenly thought of the oath he had made before, and then said without a good face: "Yes, what's wrong with the emperor?" ”
"What did you say to the Queen Mother?" Yan Qinghan didn't care about her face, took her arms, and asked again, as if he only cared about what happened between her and the Queen Mother.
Originally, Du Ruosheng wanted to explain to him truthfully, but she thought about it, after all, the Queen Mother is his mother, even if he knows the truth, what can he do, can he really do it for himself? If the Queen Mother knew that she told Yan Qinghan truthfully, would she be able to let Dongchuan go easily?
After all, even if the identity of the emperor suppresses her, it is inevitable that she will have small movements, thinking of Dongchuan, thinking of all kinds of things, Du Ruosheng still gave up.
"I didn't say anything, I just said that the concubines should serve the emperor well."
Hearing Du Ruosheng's answer, Yan Qinghan was obviously a little disappointed.
She didn't tell herself the truth, she wanted to hide something, but she still agreed to the queen mother.
didn't hear what he wanted to hear, Yan Qinghan didn't have to stay, he didn't say another word, but turned around and walked out of Du Ruosheng's dormitory and walked towards the outside of Huaqing Palace.
Du Ruosheng looked at his departing back, and was also a little disappointed, she knew that Yan Qinghan had never chosen to believe in himself, he believed in his own choice even more, if he thought that you had done it, no matter how much you explained, it would be in vain.
That year, Du Ruosheng was 16 years old and Yan Qinghan was 19 years old, both of them were still children, but they were burdened with different pressures since then.
In fact, it's not that Yan Qinghan doesn't want to believe her, it's just that he can't gamble, and he also knows that the queen mother's words that day are mixed and false, but he didn't have the ability to protect a person who he half-believed at that time, so instead of believing her, he chose to stay away from her, spy on her, and make her a person who can't threaten him.
And Du Ruosheng was forced to threaten, forced to worry, she couldn't tell the truth, she thought of another way to let Yan Qinghan understand her hardship, but Yan Qinghan never gave her a chance, avoiding him and understanding him became the only thing Du Ruosheng could do in the end.
They didn't have a love relationship with each other, Yan Qinghan just felt that she was innocent, and if she could, she could try to protect her, but the premise was that she must be worthy of her trust.
And Du Ruosheng just felt that since she had become Yan Qinghan's queen, she only needed to do what a queen should do, and she could do what a wife should do, she thought that if she did this, she would be able to survive in this palace, but she was far from expecting that once she was involved in the royal battle, no one could be innocent and could get out of the way.
From being coerced into marriage to being caught in a deep misunderstanding to suspicion and surveillance to bullying and making things difficult, these were not the reasons that finally overwhelmed her, until her last hope was also extinguished by Yan Qinghan, she fell into the dark abyss and could no longer escape.
If the best time between the two of them may be those moments of fighting and quarreling, because in the end, in Ruosheng's memory, both of them were silent, one unwilling to speak, the other unwilling to listen.
The two of them fell deeper and deeper into the misunderstanding, went farther and farther, and it became a pity to miss it ever since.
It's just that after starting over, one is full of endless repentance and love, and the other is only hatred.
