Chapter 387: The Rebellion and the Separation of Relatives
Concubine Ruo sat in front of the bronze mirror with her forehead on her forehead, and this morning, the news of Mama Zhang's violent death after her legs were broken and sent out of the palace reached her ears.
She originally thought that she would be next, but when dinner was over, she didn't wait for Zhou Qingwu to announce her will.
Mingyu saw that Concubine Ruo had been frowning, and her hand holding the saucer in both hands couldn't help but pause slightly, "Niangniang, use some tea!" ”
Ruofei raised her head and glanced at Mingyu, and said lightly: "Put it on the table!" The main palace will be used again in a while. ”
Mingyu sighed lightly and persuaded: "Niangniang, don't think too much, Your Majesty secretly disposed of Mama Zhang, maybe it was also to protect Niangniang, otherwise this originally, originally should have used palace rules." ”
"How can this palace not know that this is a punishable sin." Concubine Ruo rubbed her eyebrows and said to Mingyu: "It's just that this palace always feels that this thing is wrong, and Your Majesty doesn't look like he's protecting this palace." ”
What's more, after so many days, Zhou Qingwu has been staying at Zhang Ruolan's place, I'm afraid that even his appearance is blurred, how can he protect himself?
She glanced at the scenery outside the window, the night was about to start, Concubine Ruo tidied up her clothes, stood up and looked at Mingyu and said, "Your Majesty can turn over the brand today?" ”
Mingyu shook his head and said, "Hui Niangniang, Your Majesty didn't turn over the cards tonight." ”
Concubine Ruo nodded, "Go and prepare the sedan chair!" ”
Ming Yuleng looked at Concubine Ruo for a moment and asked, "Where are you going?" ”
Concubine Ruo smiled and said, "Since Your Majesty does not summon the palace, the palace can only ask to see it by itself." ”
Mingyu wanted to stop Concubine Ruo, but Concubine Ruo had already walked to the bronze mirror and sat down, and called the other palace people to redress herself.
Seeing this, Mingyu could only go out to prepare the sedan chair, but in her heart she felt that her mother was doing this, and she was a little self-defeating.
When Concubine Ruo was ready, she ordered someone to carry a lantern to guide the way, and Concubine Ruo made a sedan chair and went to the Heart Cultivation Hall where Zhou Qingwu lived.
When she arrived at the Heart Cultivation Palace, the stars had already appeared in the night sky, and Concubine Ruo couldn't help but glance up and said, "It's a beautiful night tonight, but I don't know if I can see it in the future." ”
When Mingyu heard Concubine Ruo say this, she immediately asked, "Why did Niang Niang say such a depressing word?" ”
A wry smile appeared on the corner of Concubine Ruo's mouth, she had been by Zhou Qingwu's side for a long time, although she didn't dare to speculate on his intentions, but she also knew Zhou Qingwu's character.
Maybe after entering this Heart Nourishing Hall tonight, when he comes out again, he will already be the same as Mama Zhang.
Thinking so, it didn't take long for the sedan chariot to stop in front of a door.
Concubine Ruo got off the sedan chair and took Mingyu's hand and walked towards the door of the Heart Cultivation Palace.
When he arrived at the door, a little eunuch saw that Concubine Ruo came so late, and immediately saluted and said: "The slave has seen Concubine Ruo, Your Majesty has already ordered, if Concubine Ruo Niangniang comes at night, then ask Concubine Ruo Niangniang to go to the side hall first and wait, waiting for His Majesty to summon her." ”
Concubine Ruo answered, followed the little eunuch to the side hall and sat down.
Sure enough, Zhou Qingwu was waiting for her to come, and it seemed that coming tonight was a correct choice.
After waiting in the side hall for an hour, Concubine Ruo's tea was already cold, and she finally waited for Zhou Qingwu to summon her to come over to see her.
Concubine Ruo tidied up her clothes and followed the little eunuch to the main hall where Zhou Qingwu was.
After entering the palace gate, all the slaves and maids were retreated, leaving only Zhou Qingwu and Concubine Ruo.
Maybe it has been a long time since I saw Zhou Qingwu, but seeing him standing under the lights at this moment, Concubine Ruo forgot the purpose of coming tonight for a moment, and her eyes were filled with mist, "The concubine has seen Your Majesty." ”
"Flat." Zhou Qingwu didn't seem to feel Concubine Ruo's emotions, and his voice was extremely flat.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Concubine Ruo stood up and looked at Zhou Qingwu and opened her mouth, but somehow, she didn't say anything.
"What? Before nightfall, does the concubine have something to say? Zhou Qingwu looked at Concubine Ruo with a smile and asked.
When Concubine Ruo heard this, she thought about it a little later, and then knelt on the ground with her knees bent and said, "The concubine is here to ask for sin, and please punish Your Majesty." ”
Zhou Qingwu looked at Concubine Ruo who was kneeling on the ground, but walked to the dragon chair not far behind him and sat down, "Oh? What is the sin of the concubine? Why don't you listen to it? ”
Concubine Ruo lowered her eyes slightly and said, "Your Majesty has been waiting for the concubine to come, it's because the concubine is late." ”
Zhou Qingwu didn't speak, his fingers tapped lightly on the table, and in this quiet hall, it became extremely clear.
Concubine Ruo knew that Zhou Qingwu was waiting for her to speak, so she continued: "It was the concubine who was dissatisfied with Li Guiren's entry into the palace and didn't want her to get the holy favor, so she bought off Mama Zhang, and did not allow her to teach Li Guiren, and asked Your Majesty to punish her." ”
Zhou Qingwu listened, but said with a chuckle: "Concubine Ai thinks that I will enter the palace because of Li Guiren, and then forget about Concubine Ai?" ”
There was no anger in this sentence, and he didn't seem to be disgusted with himself because of Mama Zhang's matter.
Concubine Ruo raised her head in surprise and looked at Zhou Qingwu who was sitting under the lamplight, only to see him looking at herself with a smile in front of her, "No, the concubine doesn't dare." ”
Zhou Qingwu smiled even deeper, and continued to Concubine Ruo: "But what Concubine Ai has done is indeed a bit excessive. ”
"Yes." Concubine Ruo didn't understand Zhou Qingwu's intentions, so she could only follow his words and replied: "The concubine knows her mistake. ”
Zhou Qingwu stood up and came to Concubine Ruo's face, and actually helped Concubine Ruo up with his own hands, "This time, I won't punish you, but if there is another time, will Concubine Ai know the consequences?" ”
Concubine Ruo shuddered, she nodded, "Yes, the concubine knows." ”
Zhou Qingwu's meaning is already very clear, if there is another time, then Mama Zhang's fate will be her own fate.
It's just that Zhou Qingwu let himself go so easily, Concubine Ruo was surprised and delighted, but Zhou Qingwu put his arm around her shoulders and said: "I haven't been to your palace recently, but in my heart, I have always had a concubine, and my concubine has always obeyed the law, and I did such a thing when I was sad, how could I really punish my concubine?" ”
When these words came out, Concubine Ruo was moved for a while, she looked at Zhou Qingwu and said, "Your Majesty, you ......"
Before he finished speaking, Zhou Qingwu interrupted: "Since Concubine Ai has come to the Heart Cultivation Palace, there is no need to go back, just stay in the Heart Cultivation Palace!" ”
When the words fell, Zhou Qingwu dropped a kiss on Concubine Ruo's forehead, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The more he didn't punish Concubine Ruo, the more moved Concubine Ruo's heart became.
But after tonight, Concubine Ruo's father wants to experience what it is like to betray relatives.
