Chapter 532: My Heart Is Messed Up
(I'm sorry everyone, I was too drunk the night before.) I slept too long yesterday and my head hurts, so ...... )
……
……
As soon as the sky was bright, a dim light was shining in a room in the quaint Sanqing Palace. The person who got up early was the Taigui Concubine Zhang, the green lantern Gu Yan, and Zhang was slowly copying the words of Zhuangzi. Only by following the wonderful ideas left by the ancients can she wander out of the world.
If the night is too long, Zhang's has nothing to do and goes to bed early, and if he sleeps for too long, his head will be dizzy, and it will cause the dilemma of difficulty sleeping; So she got up early.
A middle-aged woman knocked on the door and walked in, and whispered, "Last night, Concubine Li summoned the slaves and maids to meet. It's not easy for us to get in and out of the Wanfu Palace, but fortunately, slaves and maids often come and go to do some chores; It was already night, and the slave didn't have time to tell the mother. Early this morning, the slave and maid hurried to report ......"
This woman is a person who was by Zhang's side during the Taizu period, and she is loyal, but she is very verbose. Zhang interrupted her at the moment: "What did Li Shi do when he saw you?" ”
The woman said: "She wants to see you, saying that she has something to talk to her mother." ”
"Oh......" Zhang, holding a brush in his hand, repeatedly dips the ink in the inkstone, like a bored child playing with mud, doing some trivial and useless things.
After a while, Zhang asked again, "What does she want to talk about?" ”
The woman said: "The slave doesn't know, and Concubine Li didn't say anything." ”
Zhang felt that there was nothing to talk about with this person, and he had a grudge for many years. How did she complain at first, even Zhang himself can't remember clearly, anyway, the root cause is to compete for favor, and the person thinks that she is not pregnant with the dragon race, and blames Zhang; Later, there were too many grievances of various sizes, and this is the case with grudges. But Zhang couldn't help but want to see what she wanted to do, otherwise she would be worried, suspicious and worried about this matter in her heart......
"I'm not afraid of her, what can I do when I see her?" Zhang said, "You go back with me, and when I change my clothes, you go and let our people prepare, and follow me to see Li." ”
It is easier for eunuchs and palace maids with a bit of duty to enter and exit Wanfu Palace, and once the concubines live in, they generally can't come out. The Zhang family was able to come out entirely because the will of the superior allowed her to go to the Sanqing Hall to cultivate.
Not long after, when the Zhang family returned to Wanfu Palace from the Sanqing Palace, he seemed to feel a chill in his heart. The Sanqing Palace was even more deserted than here, but somehow, the Zhang family felt that the Wanfu Palace was even more terrifying.
She went back to clean up and brought a dozen palace ladies who were usually good with her to see Concubine Li.
Concubine Li actually arrived at the door, and when she saw that the Zhang family was bringing so many people, her expression changed slightly. She was stunned for a moment, and suddenly bent her knees and hugged her hands to her waist to make a blessing, looked at Zhang's toes and said, "Welcome to the concubine." ”
Concubine Li's approach was very surprising to Zhang. Although there are also women who have gaps and can be polite on the surface, most of them do not have deep grievances; Zhang is different from this woman, and the two of them didn't have good words in person before.
Zhang looked at Concubine Li, and from her demeanor, she didn't see any signs of hostility. This person is still not very old, but his body is wide and plump, and he does not look slender and slender.
Zhang said coldly: "Concubine Li is polite. ”
Concubine Li invited her to sit on the couch, looked back at the dozen or so people she brought over, and gently mentioned: "Concubine Taigui, can you take a step to speak?" ”
Zhang immediately responded: "Is there anything you can't say now?" We are walking upright, and there is nothing unseemly to say. Why whisper, I don't know, I think we are discussing some secret conspiracy, and we are suspicious of others, do you say yes or no? ”
After hearing this, Concubine Li's face turned blue and white for a while, and she was silent for a while. Seeing this, Zhang was also wary of her having a seizure on the spot, but she endured it and showed a flattering smile.
Zhang speculated in his heart that this woman must have heard that her nephew had been reused by the new monarch. In addition, the Zhang family was able to go to the Sanqing Palace to cultivate...... It is not so easy to become a monk, just like many years of experience, once the concubine lives in, she almost can't get out, even if she goes to the Sanqing Palace, where at least there is still a chance to contact people outside. Unless it is approved by the real power in the palace, this is the case with the Zhang family.
Concubine Li may have guessed from all kinds of signs that the Zhang family has climbed back into power; Maybe the new emperor's meeting in the Sanqing Palace was leaked. Otherwise, would Concubine Li be able to make an expression of low eyebrows in front of her?
Thinking of all the grievances in the past, the sullenness he had suffered, and the slander in his back, Zhang couldn't help but feel a wave of happiness in his heart at this time, as if he suddenly felt a cool breeze in a stuffy room, transparent and refreshing.
But with that, there is also a chill. Because Zhang understands that no matter how sincere Concubine Li is, in essence, there is no way to endure and seek perfection; Once she has the chance, she definitely wants to get revenge back!
Sure enough, after Concubine Li was silent for a long time, she whispered in public: "I saw Concubine Taigui Niangniang today, the concubine wants to apologize......" When she said it, her face was red, and she was soft in front of so many people, and her voice was as small as a mosquito flapping its wings.
Zhang Shi looked at her coldly, he felt sorry for her, and he knew that it was not easy to say it when he heard the voice. But Zhang took a deep breath, looked directly at her, and said in his heart: Anyway, the grudge is deep enough, and I'm afraid that she is useless.
Concubine Li stumped: "There were some misunderstandings before, the princess doesn't remember the villain, how about we get back together?" ”
Zhang remained silent and said slowly: "Where is there any misunderstanding?" I have never had any prejudices against Concubine Li. ”
Concubine Li muttered: "That's good, that's good......"
Chang did not give in and agreed to reconcile, because it was impossible; It's too much to be ambitious.
She was neither afraid of Concubine Li, nor was she angry. I've really experienced ups and downs, and I understand that I can't be proud all the time. Women, in particular, are inherently dependent on others......
Cao Bin, who led troops outside, was naturally one of the reasons why Fu Jinzhan and Guo Shao were more tolerant of themselves; But Zhang is very sober, and she can't use Cao Bin as a bargaining chip for her pride. Cao Bin is not her son, and he will never let his aunt affect his loyalty; What's more, even if the Zhang family continues to live in the cold palace, it is a matter of course, and Cao Bin is unwilling to take care of it. Zhang was able to take into account a situation very concretely: if the powerful people listened to some slander and did not like themselves, then there was no need to be tolerant.
And the new emperor Guo Shao just met himself, what will happen? Zhang wasn't sure. The most favorable situation, of course, is that Guo Shao has a good impression of himself, and he can decide his fate with one sentence.
This is also the reason why Zhang tried to get close to Guo Shao, of course, her motives are not pure, and there are too many realities and scheming...... However, Zhang recalled, the smaller the place, it was inexplicably warm, and those details were not a conspiracy.
A pair of large rough hands came to her mind, resting on his ribbon, and at that moment, he didn't know whether to undress or not. She seemed to feel the lingering of that moment.
……
In the Jinxiang Palace, Guo Shaoqing's thick hand picked up a piece of jade paperweight and put it on a piece of paper where the ink had not dried. The warm and smooth Hetian jade forms a stark contrast with his hands.
This is a set of several rooms located on the north side of the office study, which serves as a place to rest. However, it is still very spacious, especially as the central hall of several warm pavilions, which occupies a large area. It is very quiet and tidy, and it is very comfortable to sit here, and even the people in the court have opened the windows and considered ventilation, and the windows are covered by woven curtains, which are relatively hidden, and occasionally the cool breeze blows without feeling stuffy at all. All the furnishings and degrees are made of precious materials and fine workmanship; Even the handkerchief he covered his mouth when he coughed was a high-quality silk cotton material, which was breathable and silky in his hand.
Guo Shao has had a little cold in the past two days, but it is not serious, and he mainly has a cough.
He was a martial artist who slept in the open air, but now he sat here, and he felt like he was enjoying himself in a greenhouse. However, such an environment is still very beneficial, and it is easier to concentrate when thinking about things, because all the details are very smooth, and it is not easy to cause inexplicable subtle irritability.
At this moment, Li Shanggong walked in and saluted: "Your Majesty, the person you want to summon has arrived. The slave maid brought her here, or ......"
"Tell her to come in." Guo Shaodao.
After a while, I saw a little lady wearing a light red skirt and carrying a bulky box walk in. She is Lu Xiaoniang, Guo Shao asked someone to bring him into the palace from the mansion to prescribe medicine for him.
Lu Xiaoniang put the box on the wooden floor, knelt on the ground and said, "Concubine knock to see Your Majesty." ”
"Hurry up, there's a stool next to it. cough ......" Guo Shao said, "I'm actually fine, but in two days the King of Wei and they will come to Beijing, coughing and seeing them is also uncomfortable, I want to get better as soon as possible." I still believe in Lu Niangzi's medical skills, I have personally experienced that you are very good at curing wind and cold. Guo Shao said with a smile.
Lu Xiaoniang's face turned red, and she glanced back, the palace maid just now had already withdrawn from the door, and there were only the two of them in the huge hall. Lu Lan said in a low voice: "I came to face the saint, I was quite scared just now, but my majesty is still like the same." ”
Guo Shao said with a smile: "Identity can change, but people will not change." ”
Lu Lan then boldly observed Guo Shao's face and said, "Stick out your tongue and take a look." ”
After a while, she glanced at it, bit her lower lip lightly and couldn't help laughing, and said, "Stretch out your left hand." ”
Lu Lan gently lifted Guo Shao's yellow satin sleeves up, and stretched out his finger to put it on Guo Shao's veins. Guo Shao didn't say a word and asked her to take her pulse, only to feel that being touched by this little lady's hand on the skin had an indescribable faint comfort.
Unexpectedly, Lu Lan didn't let go for a while, and suddenly said with a red face: "Your Majesty, don't look at me, it makes my heart messy, and I can't feel the pulse ......."
Guo Shao was stunned and said, "Okay, okay, I'll turn my head." ”
