Chapter 19 His life is like floating, and his death is like rest
My aunt's emotion gave me the creeps.
She can be arrogant and domineering, she can also be tender like water, these are all images that a favorite concubine can have.
But her melancholy now makes me panic.
"Auntie......" I subconsciously screamed, but there was nothing to say.
"Are you taking pity on me?" My aunt looked at me and sneered, the fragility and helplessness on her face disappeared, leaving only showy and cruel.
"I don't think anyone in this palace has the right to pity me." Gugu laughed and said: "Don't think that there is any family love between us, entering the palace is like going to the battlefield, and the emperor's love can only be in my hands." If you want to fight me, then you will become my enemy. ”
My aunt stood up and turned to leave, and I looked at his back, and I only felt that no matter how complicated and rich the clothes were, on her, they could only slightly decorate her brightness.
She is peerless and beautiful, so she has been able to firmly grasp the emperor's heart in the past ten years.
But ten years is too long, and she is already old.
And when I entered the palace to meet the emperor, I put the fact that she was old in front of her eyes again, forcing her to face it.
Moreover, she didn't even have a child.
I suddenly felt a gratuitous grief in my heart, knelt behind her, and respectfully bowed to her back: "Niangniang's teachings, the concubines should keep it in mind and never commit it again." ”
By the time the last rash on my body had receded, it had been three days. I saw that the wind and the sun were beautiful, so I called Liu Jianxue and Wen Xiuyuan to go to see the queen together.
When you say goodbye, the courtyard of Kunning Palace will always be so lively.
Strange to say, the queen is not favored, but she is deeply trusted by the emperor. If she admires any concubine and recommends it to the emperor, it is probably useful.
Therefore, whether it is a new show girl who has entered the palace or a concubine who has been in the palace for a while, she likes to come to the queen mother to get close.
I walked into Kunning Palace with Liu Jian Xuewen Xiuyuan, and when the originally chatty concubines saw the three of us, there was a rare moment of tacit understanding, and they instantly quieted down.
It's the queen mother, who sees us in the eyes.
"The queen mother is blessed with Jin'an." The three of us bowed down together and saluted the queen.
She smiled and said, "I was thinking about you, but here I am, quickly." Sit. ”
The queen's eyes swept over me, fell on Liu Jianxue, and smiled: "Liu Guiren looks good"
"Liu Guiren has been favored recently, and he has a very close relationship with the emperor, so he naturally has a good complexion." Concubine Ning said with a sneer, her stomach full of sourness.
Liu Jianxue only thought that she couldn't hear it, and smiled softly at the queen: "Thank you for the care of Queen Mother, it's all thanks to you." ”
"Liu Guiren is also able to speak, no wonder the emperor likes you. That's what I mean, don't say anything else, as long as you serve the emperor's pleasure, it's the best. ”
The queen is good at dancing with long sleeves, left and right, and as soon as she laughed with Liu Jianxue, she turned to me and smiled: "Lin Changzai has been sick for so long, and it is inconvenient for the palace to avoid illness and take care of it, and now I am happy to see you." Didn't leave any scars, did they? ”
"Back to the mother's words, the prescription of the Tai Hospital is naturally good, and the concubine is already safe." I said respectfully.
When the queen heard me say this, the worried look on her face subsided, and she slowly said to herself: "That's great." The emperor turned over your green card, although for various reasons, this first grace did not fall on you, but as long as you recuperate well, recuperate well, the future grace will not be less. ”
I immediately luggage: "Thank you for the queen's concern, the concubine should obey her orders." ”
The queen chatted with me and Liu Jianxue for a few more words, then turned to the others and laughed with them again. Wen Xiuyuan watched from behind me, and the queen didn't ask her a word after all.
I originally wanted to speak for him, but the queen is talking to Concubine Ning now, and when I think of her snarky temperament, if I mention it at this time. On the contrary, she would be extremely cold to Wen Xiuyuan, so she endured it.
I turned my head to look at Wen Xiuyuan, and saw that she looked aggrieved, holding the handkerchief in her hand, and couldn't help but sigh.
I don't know how long it took for these people to disperse? I didn't want anyone to notice, so I blended in with the two of them in the middle of the crowd and left sooner rather than later.
It's just that even if I was so calculating, as soon as I stepped out of the palace gate, I was stopped. I looked at the girl who stopped me with a domineering face, even if she was beautiful, but her beauty was ruined by this hideousness.
"It turned out that An Chang was here, and my sister hadn't congratulated my sister on her big joy, so I've congratulated her here." I smiled quietly, knowing in my heart that this was the An Chang who the queen had named her to sleep tonight.
"Excuse me." An Changzai looked me up and down, with a malicious smile in his eyes: "Sister has something unclear, and I want to ask Lin Changzai." ”
"An Changzai might as well say it directly." I didn't have much interest in this girl with the word "find fault" written on her face, I just wanted to send her back quickly.
"Just now, the queen said that Lin Chang took the initiative to mention that she wanted to recuperate during this time, and she didn't want to sleep. My sister is straightforward and fast-talking, I want to ask, did Lin Changzai have many scars on his body, pitted and unable to see people? ”
An Chang deliberately wanted to make me ugly, so naturally he asked this sentence in a raised tone in front of the public? Those concubines who were about to disperse all stopped to watch the excitement when they heard this, and there was laughter all around them.
Liu Jianxue frowned, and was already about to reprimand, but I quietly pressed down.
"I didn't expect my sister to care about me so much, hearing is false, seeing is believing, do you want to verify it yourself?" I smiled and took An Changzai's hand, and my eyes were sincere.
An Changzai had already sensed that something was wrong, but there were so many people around. Naturally, I didn't dare to really uncover my clothes to show her in public, so I really came over, but I was embarrassed.
An Changzai is really bold, and there are some guards who come and go. She actually dared to reach out and fumble around my collar to pull open my clothes and see.
I took a sharp step back, her strength falling short and her body staggering. I then slapped her hard and knocked her to the ground.
Not only An Changzai, but all the people around, even Liu Jianxue, were stunned.
"You!" An Chang sat on the ground and looked at me in shock, and didn't react for a while, and when she finally figured out that she had been beaten, her originally beautiful face instantly distorted.
"Little cheap hoof, dare to beat me, are you looking for death?" An Changzai's face revealed viciousness and madness, and his eyes were full of resentment.
Bailu hurriedly stood in front of me: "Little master, stand back!" ”
"Not necessarily!" I gently pushed the white deer away, and the white deer originally refused, but when he saw my firm eyes, he slowly retreated.
An Chang struggled to get up from the ground, and there were five finger prints clearly on his face on the side of the beating. The people around her pointed at him, making her blush on the other side.
Originally, he had the queen's blue eyes, and he was about to go to bed tonight, and his status was precious, so he could naturally use this to humiliate me, a person who had lost his favor due to illness.
But she never expected that I would slap her with my backhand.
If she didn't let out this grievance, she would be laughed at in public, how could she get this breath.
Bailu is worried about me because of this, but I don't care.
Because slapping her at this time is the time I have calculated. Originally, An Chang was verbally conflicting, and I could directly explain the queen's disposition, but I didn't. but he led her verbally to turn over my garments. In public, her disrespectful accusation can be regarded as a reality.
I looked at her superficial and arrogant appearance, and I couldn't help but have some pity in my eyes, I didn't have a half-point enmity with her, who called her lucky, and fell headlong into my abacus.
