Chapter 131: A Hot Idea (Part II)
In the Wuwen Palace, Liu Zhaoyi, who was abolished, was dressed in green clothes, looking relaxed, and was fiddling with the only bonsai in the cold palace, when she heard the familiar child's voice, she turned back in surprise, and a pair of extremely beautiful eyes widened in an instant, "Xiao'er!" ”
The little figure crashed into his mother's arms like a young beast, and the excitement that was still there was somehow replaced by grievances, and he couldn't help but cry, "Mother! Xiao'er never wants to leave her mother again......"
The queen hugged her tightly and wanted to speak, but tears fell from her.
"Mother, Xiao'er misses her mother so much outside, Xiao'er wants to come back, but her father doesn't allow it...... My mother must have missed Xiao'er too...... I'm sorry, mother...... It took Xiao'er so long to come back to see it...... Mother's ......"
The little girl sobbed, and her speech was tossed and turned, upside down, but after listening to it in her ears, her heart softened, almost turned into water, and kept responding, "Of course my mother wants Xiao'er, how can my mother not want Xiao'er......"
She pulled her daughter out of her arms, looked at her little face carefully, touched her arms and legs, and relieved her slightly, she carefully brushed away the messy hair in front of her daughter's forehead, and had thousands of questions to ask in her heart, and only the most intuitive sentence was left on her lips, "Xiao'er has gained a lot of weight, and it should be good outside." ”
Xiao'er was a little embarrassed, "Hmm...... Father, and grandmother...... It's good for Xiao'er...... Come and see Xiao'er every day and give Xiao'er delicious ......"
At the mention of Emperor Zhaoren, the expression of the abolitionist became alienated and complicated, and he said lightly: "He goes to see you every day?" ”
"Hmm...... It's just that the father didn't let Xiao'er go back to live with her mother, and only promised Xiao'er that she could come back to see her mother every once in a while......"
After the abolition, her lips hooked slightly, revealing a trace of disdain, but she was still relieved that her daughter could be treated well. She picked up Princess Chonghua and sat on the chair, eased her expression, and asked softly, "Is there anyone else who is good to Xiao'er?" ”
Princess Chonghua nodded, "And the sixth brother often comes to play with Xiao'er." ”
"Li Qi?"
"Hmm...... ......
The title of "Qi'er" is obviously not something that ordinary people can call. Li Qi obviously often appeared with Princess Chonghua in front of the queen mother and the emperor, and even in front of the queen.
After the abolition, she turned her head to look at the old palace maid standing at the door, got up and walked up to her, her voice was a little cold, "Why didn't she tell me that Xiao'er was always with the six princes?" ”
The old palace maid lifted her eyelids and said half-deadly: "She will let people protect the safety of the princess, and the mother doesn't have to worry." ”
The queen lowered her face, walked up to the old palace maid, and said unceremoniously: "I, Liu Zhaoyi, am not your puppet, if something happens to my Xiao'er, don't blame me for letting you lose everything." ”
The old palace maid was not afraid of her threat, but straightened her waist slightly, her tone was slightly mocking, and her voice was hoarse but much more powerful than Fang Cai, "Compared with family feuds, Liu Niangniang really cares more about you and the enemy's children!" ”
Hearing this, the queen's voice was colder than Fang Cai, and said: "Don't think that this is just a matter between me and her, without me, your purpose will not be achieved either!" So I advise you to protect my Xiao'er well. Otherwise, all your years of planning will be gone! ”
The old palace maid looked directly at this amazing woman who was over thirty years old and still beautiful without powder, and returned to her normal posture, "The slave respects the teachings of the mother." ”
"Humph!"
Liu Zhaoyi snorted lightly, "You go down, let me stay alone with Xiao'er for a while." ”
The old palace maid bent her knees slightly, turned and left, and the lacquered wooden boxes were placed on the table.
Princess Chonghua climbed onto the chair and took out the dim sum inside like a treasure and handed it to Liu Zhaoyi, "Mother, you eat, it's delicious!" ”
"Well, it's delicious!" Liu Zhaoyi couldn't stop feeling sad, such a good girl, but she wanted to leave her mother and go to the cannibalistic deep palace alone.
………………
In the depths of winter, the weather in the capital is getting colder and colder day by day, Concubine Hui stood by the railing above the palace wrapped in a thick cloak, looking at the direction of the cold palace, "I heard that Princess Chonghua went back to the cold palace to visit the queen?" ”
"Yes, Niangniang, I didn't expect the emperor to really agree, before the slave maid thought that the emperor was coaxing the princess."
"What?" Concubine Hui glanced lightly at the maid who spoke, perhaps because she was pregnant, her demeanor looked particularly lazy, and said, "The emperor is full of words, how can he coax people!" ”
"Yes, the slave said the wrong thing......
Concubine Hui took a dried apricot from the fruit bowl held by the maid and put it in her mouth, the sweet and sour taste made her tongue relish, people said that it was sour to give birth to a son, I don't know if she will give birth to a prince in this child.
Seeing that she liked it, the maid smiled and said: "This is something that the emperor specially asked the mother to make, and the emperor always cares more about the mother than others." ”
Concubine Hui was noncommittal, looked at the eaves of the cold palace in the distance, wiped her hands with a handkerchief, and said, "Do you know why the emperor agreed to let Princess Chonghua go to the cold palace?" ”
The maid didn't think about it, so she said: "I heard that every time Princess Chonghua saw the emperor, she clamored to go back, but the emperor couldn't help it, so she agreed." ”
That's what everybody says.
"Huh...... Can't help it? Concubine Hui laughed and said: "Is there really someone in this world who can make the emperor unbearable?" If the emperor is annoyed, he can not go to see Princess Chonghua. ”
"Then ......," the maid said and stopped.
"Hmph, what do you say that the emperor favors Princess Chonghua, and the saint is grand, the reason for this is really intriguing!" Concubine Hui sneered: "A four-year-old milk doll, if you don't let her go back to the cold palace to see the waste, after three or five years, I'm afraid that my mother won't be able to remember what she looks like, but the emperor asked her to return to the cold palace from time to time, and the queen is not clear, I think the emperor himself wants to be involved with the queen of abolition!" ”
No matter how busy Emperor Zhaoren is, he is still a man after all. No matter how much I thought about respecting the imperial concubine in my heart, the other party had been dead for many years after all.
Concubine Hui stroked her stomach gently, she was really curious about what method she used to hook the emperor after the abolition.
Just thinking about it, someone from the palace came to report, "Niangniang, Lord Qin said that there is something to discuss with Niangniang." ”
It must be because of the matter of welcoming the relics into the palace.
Concubine Hui's expression flashed with a hint of impatience, when will she, a stupid brother, let her save some snacks? He finally sent him to the position of Jing Zhaoyin, but he was degraded again and again because of a small murder case! Nowadays, I can't even do such a thing!
………………
Qing Ruxu got off the carriage at Xuanfeng Gate and went with the palace people to see the fourteenth princess. Originally, she wanted to enter the palace again tomorrow, but she didn't expect the fourteenth princess to see her worship sticker, and she was so interested that she couldn't wait for a moment, so she ordered her to enter the palace immediately.
She saw that the direction of the palace people was not the Spring Palace, so she asked the palace people: "Isn't the fourteenth princess in the Spring Palace?" ”
The palace man replied respectfully: "Her Royal Highness the princess has recently been obsessed with ice sculptures and snow sculptures. Let Ruan Fengfeng draw a lot of pictures, these days the princess carved according to the appearance, and now it is already decent, and the emperor also praised it when he saw it. At this time, the princess was in Yu Garden. ”
Qing Ruxu is a little funny, but the folk gadgets, last time she had no intention of saying a word to the fourteenth princess, she was actually remembered by the princess, and she also handled it herself.
When she arrived at Yu Garden, Qing Ruxu found that there were more than fourteen princesses here. The six princes and Princess Hanyuan, as well as the small Princess Chonghua, are all there, and the tip of Princess Chonghua's nose and eyes are red, as if she has just cried, and everyone is coaxing her.
Qingru saluted one by one, and threw a questioning look at the fourteenth princess.
The fourteenth princess pulled her aside and said, "Today, Chonghua was allowed by his father to go back to the cold palace to see Liu Niangniang. ”
Liu Niangniang? Qing Ru Xu was stunned, is the person in the palace called the queen like this now? The wind in the palace has always become fast, and Queen Chen is afraid that she will not be able to sit still.
The fourteenth princess glanced at Chonghua and showed sympathy: "But my father only allowed her to stay for two hours, but I had lunch with Liu Niangniang, and then I talked about it, and the time was up." Where can a little doll not be sad? ”
"I see." Qing Ruxu was suddenly, "So in order to coax her, Princess Hanyuan took her to see the princess carving ice?" ”
"Well, the sixth brother had a good time with Chonghua, and I heard that Chonghua came out of the cold palace and cried sadly, so he came over with the imperial sister."
Everything is so natural and logical. But Qing Ruxu felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't say it for a while.
She looked at everyone carefully, Princess Hanyuan half-hugged Chonghua, and comforted her softly, the sixth prince was eight or nine years old, and he was a boy, clumsy and clumsy, and he didn't know what to say to comfort his little sister.
It seems to be the common warmth of ordinary people.
She was thinking about it, when the fourteenth princess pointed to her carved ice and said excitedly, "Look, how is my carving?" How is it better than the ones you see? ”
Qing Ruxu came back to her senses, looked at the crystal clear, aura-full of cute little rabbits, and was a little surprised, "The princess is so well carved?" Much more refined than the ones I've seen. ”
"Really?"
"yes, really." Although the ice carved by ordinary people is good, it is for others to appreciate, and a lot of finished products are produced every day, where will be finely carved, and this one of the princesses has spent countless hours and efforts to polish carefully, and it is naturally blue, and even can feel the cuteness of the little rabbit.
In addition to this little rabbit, there are several semi-finished products around.
The fourteenth princess was very happy, compared to her usual dignified and mature temperament, she was now more like a teenage girl. She lowered her voice and said to her, "I've wanted to look for you for a long time, but I'm afraid that you will be inconvenient." ”
The inconvenience refers to the fact that Qing Ruxu approved the leakage, but now Empress Chen should not have time to make a fuss about this matter. So she whispered: "The queen mother has been very busy lately, so she shouldn't be able to take care of me." ”
The two glanced at each other, tacitly not talking about this, and carefully studied the ice sculpture. Xiong Bao'er got the permission of the fourteenth princess and excitedly moved her hands on an ice sculpture in the shape of a carp.
Qing Ruxu took the time to look back at Princess Hanyuan and them, and saw that Hanyuan led Chonghua and the Six Princes to the Linya Pavilion, Princess Chonghua and the Six Princes Li Qi were overlooking the ice sculpture below from a high place, and Princess Hanyuan was not far behind them now, and they couldn't see clearly......
The strange feeling in Qing Ruxu's heart became stronger and stronger, but she couldn't grasp the clue.
