Chapter Twenty-Seven: The waist of the palace is slender
My eyes were full of laughter, and I couldn't hide it: "What is this good calculation, it's nothing more than that I dare to bet and fight!" If there is a mistake today, and my aunt suppresses her temper and does not come, wouldn't I really be fortunate to be honored by the emperor? ”
Qiushui trembled when he heard my words, and hurriedly comforted me and said, "It can be seen that even God is helping the little master!" The little lord still doesn't know why Concubine Shu fainted in our palace, right? As soon as she heard that the emperor had come to you, she ran out of her palace without even wearing shoes, and ran all the way to Xiwu Palace on a hexagonal stone road under the snowy night, didn't she run so that her feet were bloody? ”
I couldn't help but smile when I heard this: "Why can you be an old woman who has been in the palace for ten years?" To make the emperor so reassured, he must also have this ability. is worthy of being the daughter of my Lin family! ”
With that, I stood up and walked out the door, really wanting to see what she was like now. As soon as Qiushui saw me get up, he immediately grabbed me: "Does the little master want to see Concubine Shu?" When you go, Concubine Shu will not only not think that you are caring about her, but will also think that you are against her! ”
"Naturally, I was going to go against her. If I don't go today, this drama between aunts and nephews competing for favor and making the six palaces uneasy will not be performed thoroughly enough! A kind of excitement burned in my eyebrows: "Everyone knows that my favorite aunt is my biggest supporter, and once I tear my face with her, then I can say that I can no longer gain a foothold in the palace." But I'm going to play this scene today. What I want is for my aunt to be disgusted with me from now on! ”
"Little Lord." There was also a hint of fluctuation in the always steady Qiushui voice: "I know the little master's intentions, you want to keep the festival for Gongzi, but since Gongzi personally sent you to the deep palace, there is no turning back." ”
"I know." I had already thought, "I'm not keeping a festival for him alone, but for the love in my heart." Once my love has identified a person, it cannot be turned around. ”
After saying this, I didn't wait for Qiushui's response, and walked resolutely to the palace gate. The courtyard was still in chaos, and the emperor hugged his aunt and looked at her with a sad face: "Why are you so disobedient, you dare to run out barefoot under the snow so big, aren't you afraid that these feet will be useless in the future?" ”
My aunt had already woken up slowly, leaning on the emperor's shoulder with tears in her eyes: "Achen, Yue'er dreamed that Achen left me, and left me in the snow without looking back, I was really scared." Achen, don't leave me behind, okay? ”
The more my aunt talked, the more emotional she became, and the whole person was wrapped around the emperor, who sighed and hugged her tightly in his arms. I stood at the gate of the palace and watched them, and I just felt bored.
Although my aunt said that she was brave and resourceful, she really didn't have anything new. It's just that I can't look at the two of them with a blank face, you and me, and I have to pretend to have a sour and vinegared expression.
"Achen, why does my foot hurt so much...... Will I still be able to dance in the future? "My aunt nestled in the emperor's arms, and raised a little face, which is really pitiful for me.
"Say anything stupid, it will be fine." The emperor gently coaxed her, and had already raised his feet and walked outside the palace gate, as if he was going to her aunt's bedroom.
I knew that the best time was at this moment, and I didn't care about the sympathetic or playful eyes of others, so I rushed directly to the courtyard and shouted at the emperor's back: "Your Majesty! ”
My cry added a lot of sincere sadness in the tactful tenderness, and sure enough, as soon as the emperor heard this call, he immediately turned back.
As soon as I saw him turn around, I immediately put my hand in my sleeve and pinched myself hard, and immediately tears fell from my eyes. The snow had not stopped, and flakes of goose feathers swept into my already thin clothes with the cold wind.
Long hair is flying, teary eyes are hazy, and clothes are thin. I just stood there, looking at the emperor with a fixed look of infatuation.
"Didn't the emperor promise to come back?" I twisted my shirt and bit my lip, staining my plain white face with a hint of bright red. How can such a beautiful woman pray under the moonlight not to be tempted?
"Huaixing ......" The emperor hugged his aunt tightly in his arms, but his eyes had already turned to me, and his eyes were full of reluctance: "I ......"
Of course, my aunt was not happy with the emperor's performance, and she didn't want him to finish this sentence, so she immediately shouted: "Achen, I hurt." ”
Jingtai, who was beside her aunt just now, naturally reacted quickly: "Oh, Concubine Shu's feet are bleeding again, how can this be good?" ”
Shang was a little impatient by his shout, but as soon as he lowered his head, his aunt's heart-warming appearance made his heart move again. Not to mention him, even the women present couldn't help but be a little soft-hearted when they saw this beauty in tears.
So the emperor didn't say anything to me again, and after holding my aunt steady, he turned around and walked out of the Xiwu Palace. Watching the loud people beside Concubine Shu leave in a hurry, I couldn't help but cover my face and laugh.
The others stood at a distance and watched me cover my face and tremble, thinking that I had started to cry. Liu Jianxue knew that I would not be so sad for the emperor, but I didn't know if the dispute between me and my aunt would make me feel sad.
She didn't know how to comfort her, so she had to say out: "The snow is so big, and you are thinly dressed, so let's go back quickly!" Later, if you get sick, it won't be good. ”
"That's it! Even if she is sick, her sister will not get the emperor's pity. Didn't my sister see the emperor just now? As long as Concubine Shu cries, the emperor can't care about anyone! Wen Xiuyuan's voice was bitterly cold, and even a hint of willingness to read it faintly flashed.
I'm a little surprised, Wen Xiuyuan has always been timid and cautious and cautious in everything she does, why is she so reckless today? It's not like she's sad for me, as if Concubine Shu came today to rob her of her favor.
"What are you talking about?" Liu Jianxue's heart tightened: "Talking about things in the palace with lust, the parrot doesn't dare to say anything!" ”
"If you don't dare to say anything, will anyone still care about my words and deeds?" Wen Xiuyuan looked at the plum blossom in her arms and threw it on the ground: "Concubine Shu has been prosperous for so many years, it turns out that she has snatched the favor from others, and she doesn't even let go of her niece!" ”
"The little master of Wen is drunk. Bailu, you send her back. I ordered coldly, and then turned to Liu Jianxue and said, "There are a lot of things today, so it's better to go back to the palace early to rest." ”
Both of them thought I was in a bad mood, and they didn't say anything more to me, so they left, and I casually glanced at the bouquet of plum blossoms on the ground that was thrown away by Wen Xiuyuan: "What's wrong with Wen Xiuyuan today." Did this bouquet of flowers offend her too? ”
Qiushui smiled when he heard my words: "The slave maid hasn't had time to return to the little master, just now when Bailu accompanied the little master Wen to fold plum blossoms in the plum garden, she happened to meet the emperor, and the emperor also praised her a few words, and the little master Wen said and laughed together." It's a pity that as soon as the emperor saw you, he immediately forgot about the little master Wen. ”
"No wonder." I sneered: "I still think that there is a deep hatred between Wen Xiuyuan and my aunt that deserves her to be so arrogant in front of me, it turns out that his indignation is against me!" Anyway, since she is bent on asking for the emperor's favor, I don't care about anything. It's just a pity that this bouquet of plum blossoms, you clean it up and find a bottle to plug it in. ”
By the time I went back to my dormitory and went to sleep, it was already quiet outside, and even the palace people were silent and didn't dare to make any loud noises, for fear that they would know that I was in a bad mood, lest I be caught and used as an introduction.
I was happy to have a good night's sleep, and I slept very deeply, without worrying at all. The emperor has been arrested by his aunt, and if he can come back today, then my aunt will be sorry for her reputation for being favored for the past ten years.
However, my good mood was completely ruined the next morning.
