Chapter Seventy-One: Cangyun's Questioning
In order to make my words more sincere, I even secretly pinched my thigh with my hand under the cover of the quilt, and held back a tear in my eyes.
"Okay, I really know that you are sincere, but there are some regrets, I will go back to review the folds, you can rest quickly."
Sure enough, after I showed this aggrieved look, the emperor didn't say anything more, just a few words of comfort and then left, but his face was still a little unhappy.
While I know this situation will undermine my previous efforts, there is no better way to do it right now.
Although he can't go against Prince Guo's will, his own heart is even more uncontrollable, and he can only take one step at a time, and maybe there will be some different turns in the future.
"Huh, I finally coped with it, just now I really thanks to you for coming in time, otherwise I really don't know what to do, thank you Qiushui."
After watching the emperor walk away, I finally breathed a deep sigh of relief, anyway, I barely passed the hurdle in front of me, so I hurriedly said to Qiushui.
Anyway, just when I was most embarrassed, this girl came in and picked me up in time, so my thank you is naturally sincere.
And the only person I can trust in this deep palace is probably this girl, no matter what, we have to go on with each other.
"What is the master saying, Qiushui's life is the master's, not to mention helping the master complete the task, isn't this a matter for the slave?"
On the contrary, Qiushui looked a little uneasy after listening to my words, after all, in her heart, I am the master and she is the slave, and it is right to do things according to my requirements, so naturally she deserves this word of thanks.
So this is naturally a little frightened, but the heart is more of a grateful heart, but this kind of emotion will naturally not be expressed.
"Okay, let's not talk about this, remember that no matter who comes to visit or condolence recently, I don't see anybody, if the status is too high, say that I want to copy Buddhist scriptures for the Queen Mother, I need to calm down and be inconvenient to meet guests."
After thinking about it carefully, I decided to close the door to thank the guests, firstly, to avoid a lot of right and wrong, and secondly, to the Queen Mother is the head.
You must know that in the harem, in addition to the emperor, the queen mother is the most noble, and if it is not a last resort this time, I don't want to offend her old man.
And if it weren't for some special circumstances, he wouldn't have paid attention to a little concubine like me, but now that things have happened, the only thing I can do is to calm her anger as much as possible. In fact
οYes, the slave and maid will arrange it, presumably the master is also tired today, so now take advantage of the time to have a good rest. ο
After listening to my instructions, after the autumn water fell, he wanted to turn around and walk outside, but before he had walked a few steps, he saw Aunt Cangyun hurrying towards the house outside, and hurriedly bowed and saluted.
ο Little Lord, you rarely led the emperor into the air today, why did you personally persuade the emperor to leave? Know that this is the best time for you to receive your grace. ο
After Qiushui walked out, Aunt Cangyun couldn't help but ask, she thought that she would definitely let the emperor stay in Xiwu Palace today, but she didn't expect to leave after just sitting for a while.
Naturally, I was very disappointed in my heart, but I didn't have the time to ask just now, so I was naturally impatient to ask at this moment.
You must know that you have been sent here, and the main task is to supervise this little master and let him fulfill the wishes of his master.
ο Auntie, I naturally have my own way to compete for favor, you don't need to worry about it, although I know your identity, but in any case I am still the master in this process, naturally there is no need to report everything to you. ο
Today, first the queen mother, and then the emperor, I am already physically and mentally exhausted at this moment, and naturally I am unwilling to accept anyone's interrogation.
So even when facing Aunt Cangyun, there was a little more irritability and impatience in his heart, and the tone of his voice was naturally not much better.
She didn't expect me to be the way I am now, and she didn't react for a while, but froze in place, and only looked at me in surprise after a while.
I naturally know that you are the master, but the old farmer can only be loyal to his master, so for today's matter, please ask the little master to give an explanation, otherwise the old slave will not be able to return to Prince Guo. ο
Although she was stunned for a while, Aunt Cangyun was an old man in the palace no matter what, so naturally she would not be frightened by me.
So the words that came out after opening her mouth were still very serious, in her eyes, Prince Guo was his only master, and I was just a target of surveillance, so the tone of my voice became a little indifferent because of my previous attitude.
After all, if the old farmer says something wrong, it will still affect the image of the little master in front of the master, and if the master is not happy, the little master should not be very happy. ο
Although she didn't know why I worked hard for Prince Guo, she also knew that the other party must have taken some handle from me, so she could naturally open her mouth and threaten at this time.
In fact, as soon as the words came out, I already regretted it a little, after all, the other party was not a slave in his palace, and he could be reprimanded at will.
It's just because there are too many things I've experienced today, and I'm a little tired of dealing with it for a while, so I lost my sense of proportion, and when I heard his words at this moment, I naturally regretted it.
ο There are really too many things going on today, so some of my words and words are out of proportion, and my aunt should not be like me. ο
In order to prevent things from getting worse, I comforted the other party again and again, first apologized and made the other person's face look better before continuing.
ο It's not that I have no intention of competing for favor, but today's situation is really not suitable for the emperor to stay here, and we should look farther. ο
After the emotions are calmed down, it must be to explain today's events, and if I don't give her a reasonable explanation, I don't know what she is going to say to Prince Guo.
After all, today I first offended the Queen Mother, and then used my body as a bet to deal with the past, if I really let the Emperor stay here, then even if I get the Holy Grace, I am afraid that I am destined to be the enemy of the entire harem. ο
After I finished speaking, Aunt Cangyun did not respond immediately, but lowered her head and thought for a while, as if analyzing whether what I said made sense.
ο And among these enemies is the current Queen Mother, how long do you think I can keep it even if I get the Holy Favor? ο
Today's events in the main hall, I don't think I need to say, everyone has heard of it, so I just pointed out a few key reasons, as an old man in the palace, she can naturally understand what I mean.
What the little master said was that the old slave didn't figure it out for a while, but if today's opportunity was missed, it would be difficult to find such an opportunity again
Aunt Cangyun knows that my drive away from the emperor today is nothing more than giving the queen mother a thin face, so that the relationship between the two people will not be so stiff in the future, and it can even be eased somewhat.
So naturally I won't say anything more about this matter, but I'm more worried about how many chances I have to compete for favor in the future.
ο Auntie, rest assured, in fact, today's things are not without gains, at least we have won the emperor's favor, this is a good start. ο
Although I don't want to do it in my heart, I still have to make a look of going all out, after all, the fate of everyone in the family is in the hands of the other party.
ο It's like planting a seed, the seeds have been planted, and if you want to take root and sprout in the future, it is nothing more than sunshine and rain that you don't need, as long as I'm still in high school, I still don't have the opportunity to fertilize? ο
After listening to my words, Aunt Cangyun was completely relieved, and she didn't say anything more, just bowed slightly and then retreated.
When he walked out of the hall completely, I was depressed on the bed as if all my strength had been drained.
The queen mother, the emperor, the queen, the concubine, and even the minions around me, it seems that there are more and more people who want to act.
In this deep palace, as long as I have to wear a mask every day after opening my eyes, I can live, for this kind of life, I am naturally very tired, but I have to go on the trajectory of fate in this cage that I can't break free.
ο When will I be truly liberated and no longer have to face these deceitful lives and return to my true self? ο
I only dare to whisper these words when I am alone, even if I know that there is no one around, I dare not say it out loud, for fear that if I am not careful, it will be a catastrophe.
However, although I was looking forward to such a result, I also knew that this sentence was just a beautiful luxury in my heart.
Nowadays, I have long been reduced to a pawn of others, and how I want to live can only depend on how the chess player lays out, and it is completely impossible to follow my own wishes.
ο Second brother, if we can meet again in the next life, please don't miss me again, this kind of life is enough for a lifetime, not more. ο
Although he clearly knows that the current situation is impossible for him and him, but in such a cage, if even the last glimmer of hope is wiped out, then I am afraid that I really can't live.
The only thing you can do is to give yourself a little hope, no matter what the future holds, and that's the only reason why you can persevere.
After muttering these words, I couldn't help but lie on the bed and fell asleep deeply, I was so tired today, and now I just want to have a good rest.
