Volume 1: A Scene of Glitz and Delusion Chapter 38: The Divisive Scheme (I)
"The emperor drove to the !!"
A sharp sound of the emperor arrived, startling the two sisters who were talking behind closed doors in the room.
"Concubines, courtiers see the emperor."
Long Jiangye was not surprised, and in this inner sanctum, only the two sisters spoke behind closed doors.
It's just that he took a closer look at Xie Huanting's face, Xie Huanting's face was not good, and the worry between her eyebrows and eyes was very obvious.
On the other hand, Na Qing Gardenia was much calmer than Xie Huanting, and the dragon walked between the two of them at night and sat on the main seat.
"Calm down, it's rare for your sister to come here, don't be too restrained, treat it as if it were your own home."
The first half of the words were originally said to the queen, but as he spoke, the emperor's eyes caught eye on Qing Yu's body, and the last two sentences were also said to Qing Yu.
"Thank you for the emperor's concern, I am already very happy that the courtiers can come to the palace to accompany my sister."
"That's good, after your sister married into the palace, there was no one to talk to, so you have to come to the palace often to accompany your sister."
The two of them chatted back and forth, leaving Xie Huanting aside, and Xie Huanting herself didn't dare to interject at will, so she kept sitting with her.
This situation is a bit like that Long Jiangye and Qing Yu are a couple with Mei in love, and she is superfluous.
When this thought flashed in Xie Huanting's mind, Xie Huanting herself was startled.
"By the way, I heard your sister say that you like to walk, I remember that at the end of last year, I got two new pairs of begonias and begonias, and I will give them to you now."
When the emperor was talking to Qing Yu, he deliberately said the words "your sister" in front, and Xie Huanting's face turned pale for a while, and she was not in a good mood.
Originally, Qing Yu was very happy to hear that there was a reward, but when he heard the word "and ti", his face turned white, and he knelt down in fear: "Your Majesty, where can the courtiers afford such a heavy reward, the courtiers will never dare to bear it." ”
"If I say you can afford it, you will be able to bear it. It's just a bit more monotonous, and there's a pink daze, which I'll give you too. ”
When she heard that Da Yu was talking about Da Yu, the queen's heart and liver trembled, and she asked, "Your Majesty, but the pink Da Yu made of fox skin you hunted last year?" ”
"The queen has a good memory, that's it."
In the early winter of last year, the emperor galloped in the snow and chased for a long time before shooting down the fox with excellent fur color, and then made a delicate big coat, which is best used to keep warm in winter.
However, the piece that the emperor rewarded her was a tribute from outside, and the weight and meaning were not as good as the one that the emperor personally obtained.
"That piece of rice is rare, how did you think of taking this to reward Qing Gardenia, Sister Qing Gardenia....."
"My stuff is only given to those I like!!"
As soon as these words came out, the hall fell into a mysterious silence for a short time.
The queen's face was pale and terrifying, and she almost couldn't sit still, what do you mean by this, could it be that in the emperor's heart, Qing Yu is heavier than her own weight?
So the emperor has always refused to touch himself, is it because the emperor has a green gardenia hidden in his heart?
The more she thought about it, the more terrifying it became, Xie Huanting's tone trembled slightly, and she was still refusing for Qing Yu.
"Sister Qing Yu, she has no merit, she can't stand the emperor's love so much."
Long Jiangye's face turned cold, and he replied in a flat tone: "Could it be that I reward someone with something, and you also want to ask the queen?" ”
Although the tone was flat, anyone could tell that the emperor was angry.
The emperor had never spoken to the queen in such a questioning tone before, but now for Qing Yu, she actually scolded herself like this, and the queen felt that her face was dull, and she was even more afraid of the emperor's attitude towards Qing Yu.
Since she was a child, Qing Yu was born more coquettish than her, and she never questioned Qing Yu about the scandal between King Beiding and Qing Yu because she married the emperor.
But now, if Qing Yu enters the palace......
When the queen thought about it, she felt scared, especially the emperor's sentence that I would only reward those I liked.
The emperor has never said to himself that he likes the word.
While the queen was thinking wildly, Qing Yu knelt on the ground and said in a panic: "Your Majesty, what the queen's sister said is right, the courtiers can't afford to be the emperor's favor, and the courtiers are really ashamed to not dare to accept your reward." ”
Qing Yu is not a person who doesn't like delicate things, but she is already the person of the king of Beiding, and at this time, accept the emperor's things and let the prince know, and the prince will be unhappy.
To be a man, you have to take a firm stand, and you can't get Long Wangshu, Qing Yu still knows this deeply, and she doesn't have any thoughts that the emperor shouldn't have because of her other eyes at this moment.
"You mean you don't like what I've rewarded?"
"No, that's not what the courtiers meant....."
"Since that's not what you mean, then you can take it. It just so happens that you and your sister each have a big one, and there are two pairs of this step, and you two sisters have a pair each. How nice, right? ”
The emperor has always been used to giving orders, how can he tolerate this little Qing Yu's refusal.
Originally, the emperor was going to have dinner here, but somehow he changed his attention.
The emperor gave the two of them and left, and in the past half an hour, the emperor almost didn't listen to the queen much, and his attention was all on Qing Yu's body.
The people with eyes in the entire Kunning Palace saw the emperor's favor for Qing Yu, and even the blind queen faintly felt that the emperor seemed to be serious this time.
After the emperor left, Xie Huanting gritted her teeth and asked Qing Yu: "When did you seduce the emperor?" ”
Qing Yu really felt that he was even more wronged than that Dou E, but he didn't dare to fight back when he was beaten, and explained cryingly: "No, sister, every time I see the emperor's sister, you are there, I have always been respectful of the emperor, where do you dare to provoke?" ”
This is also true, but the emperor will not start to treat Qing Yu differently for no reason.
"You haven't seen the emperor in private?"
"No, sister, you have to help me, I am in love with the prince, and I can't let the emperor include my sister and me in the harem, sister."
Xie Huanting shook off her hand, she naturally wouldn't let the emperor invite Qing Yu to be included in the harem to snatch the emperor's favor from herself.
Although he knew that the emperor would have other concubines in the future, Qing Yu just couldn't.
Just because Qing Yu and she grew up together, she didn't want to be the person she was for tat in the future, and then it would hurt the love of growing up together since childhood.
But after the emperor left, he quickly asked Gonggong Chu to summon Qing Yu to the Heart Cultivation Palace, saying that the emperor was waiting for Miss Qing Yu in the Heart Cultivation Palace.
Qing Yu followed behind Father-in-law Chu and did arrive at the Heart Cultivation Palace, but soon Father-in-law Chu took her from the back door of the Heart Cultivation Hall and set off to the courtyard next to Muyu Pavilion.
Let Qing Yu sleep in it for a night.
But this is terrible, people only saw Qing Yu enter the Heart Cultivation Palace, but did not see Qing Gardenia out of the Heart Cultivation Palace.
Although Qing Yu was uneasy, the palace maid who guarded her did not let her step out of the door for half a step.
In the queen's palace, Xie Huanting's face was not good-looking, Ye Qing watched Qing Yu walk behind Gonggong Chu, and walked to Xie Huanting's side to comfort: "Niangniang, don't be careful, the emperor won't do that." ”
"No, the emperor's mind is hard to guess, he is willing to come to Kunning Palace today, where is it to come to see Qing Yu, but to tell the palace that he is going to accept Qing Yu as a concubine."
Ye Qing saw that the queen was sad, and when she heard the queen say such frustrating words, she couldn't help but be even more anxious.
"No, don't worry about it, mother."
"How can this palace not be careful, that pink big man, this palace asked the emperor to pass, and the emperor was not willing to give it, but now it was all given to Qing Yu."
After saying this, the queen seemed unwilling to speak again, and groped her way back to the bedroom alone, not even for dinner, lying on the bed and thinking nonsense, and fell asleep groggily in the middle of the night.
Outside the palace, a letter once again came to Long Jianghan's hand, and the letter stated the incident that happened in the Internal Affairs Office before, and Long Jianghan's heart became even more uneasy.
I always feel that the emperor is serious, and the emperor really wants to hold the Xie family's power firmly in his hands, and he doesn't even plan to let go of his adopted daughter.
Moreover, when Qing Yu arrived at the Cultivation Heart Palace, the people in the palace knew about it, and they could know it if they asked at will.
And the dragon general who was supposed to have dinner in Kunning Palace took Qing Yu to dinner in the Cloud Palace.
This kind of intention, anyone with a long brain knows that the emperor is particularly favored by Qing Yu, but the emperor did not say it explicitly, and everyone did not dare to say more.
However, the speculation in the secret is scary, and the women in the palace love to talk about these things when they have nothing to do for a long time, and any wind and grass in the emperor can become gossip.
Then let the people in the palace adjust the color, and a story of painting and color reached the ears of King Beiding.
Long Jianghan didn't sleep well all night, and entered the palace early in the morning, and before he reached Cining Palace, he had already heard these rumors.
"Did you hear that? What about Miss Qing Yu spending the night in the palace last night? ”
Long Jiang Han had already seen that the palace maids were talking about something together.
When passing by, my ears keenly caught the word Qing Gardenia, and then I heard the word overnight, and my face suddenly seemed to have eaten a fly.
He was in a hurry to enter the palace early in the morning, and he didn't even notice that Qing Yu didn't go back.
He also knew that yesterday afternoon, Qing Yu was summoned by Empress Qing to go to Kunning Palace to talk to the queen, but why didn't he go back all night.
Is it possible?
The more Long Jianghan thought about it, the more he felt that something was imminent, and his steps quickly walked towards Cining Palace.
The queen's heart was also not stable, she didn't sleep well last night, her eyes were a little sore and sore when she got up in the morning, and she was gently rubbing her hands at the moment, Ye Qing walked in with some messy steps.
"Niangniang, Miss Qing Yu has come to say goodbye to you."
Last night, the queen closed the door, not knowing the situation outside, and when she heard this, she was stunned, and asked back in disbelief: "Qing Yu didn't go back last night?" ”
Ye Qing nodded, and said in a hurry: "The slave maid also inquired early in the morning, and I heard that it was in the Heart Cultivation Palace......
Before he finished speaking, Ye Qing saw that the queen could barely sit still, and the whole person was stunned.
When Qing Yu came in, Ye Qing obviously saw that the clothes Qing Yu was wearing now were not the winter pleated fairy dress that she had entered the palace yesterday afternoon.
