Chapter Ninety-Three: The Holy Driving Pilgrimage Palace
Ruoyun's heart was depressed, and for a long time, all emotions turned into a sigh.
Rong Yixuan finally took the road of power, and if it was really the end of the apricot leaves, he and her had no intersection since then, but she kept the promise to him, when would she be able to untie the knot.
"She's not your person, she's my unfinished princess." Faintly, this sentence echoed in my ears.
She smiled to herself, in the future, Cheng Qingxuan's princess will not be her, and his princess will not be her, she is now the emperor's concubine, the emperor's concubine, and the caged bird in this Zhumen who can no longer break free.
At that time, she naively fantasized about a lifetime and a couple; At this time, her slender dream was shattered and she entered the palace to become a concubine, which is really a great irony.
"Miss!" I only heard Xiaohong scream, Ruoyun's throat was sweet and spit out some blood, this time it was black.
Looking at the blood stains and teardrops on her palms, she remembered that she had not taken medicine for many days, and she wondered if it was the residual poison of the broken intestine grass.
She took two steps on her own, and finally couldn't support her body and went limp, and fell down in the exclamation of the palace maid and eunuch.
Ruoyun woke up again It was noon, the pain and numbness were still there, but in the end she was still alive, the bright sunlight penetrated the screen window into the house, and the scene was peaceful, as if nothing had happened.
Xiaohong cried and red-eyed, and was pleasantly surprised to see her wake up, and hurriedly passed the meal for her. She only then realized that she had been asleep for two and a half days without realizing it.
Scarlet Flower and Qiuyue heard that she was awake, so they hurriedly came to greet her, and then a report to the emperor and an aunt went out.
Xiaohong cried and laughed and told her about the past few days, and she knew that Concubine Lu Daode had come. Several new concubines came, and even Chu Rulan, who hated her, pretended to stand at the door for a while.
However, the emperor did not come.
Wait for her to wake up. This Chaolu Palace has gone from being like a city and everyone is stammering, and it has become a door with few people coming.
Wu Meiren picked up her life but was no longer favored, and the emperor stayed in Chen Meiren's Hanfang Palace overnight.
Chen Meiren comes from the people, in addition to bringing the freshness of the folk, but also ingenious every day to change the tricks to make the imperial dining room dim sum, and every time the story of the emperor smiles, in order to seek the grace of the saint.
Ruoyun listened to Xiaohong's words. I couldn't help but sigh: "I won't come to see me when I am Concubine De, I didn't expect Chen Meimei to be there, and my previous mistakes are not enough to worry about......"
I still remember that day. Concubine De once showed a look of surprise and puzzlement at the emperor's actions, and looked at her eyes and wanted to swallow her.
But even so, she couldn't resist Chen Meiren's limelight, and everyone had already forgotten her.
And the emperor gave her "special favor". Let her cool her heart and hurt her spirit in Ronghua Palace. It's really glorious and rich once gone, who sighs and sighs towards the cold.
Wrapping up those who should be encircled and rejecting those who should be excluded, everyone no longer minds having a new concubine who is not favored, but all revolves around Chen Meiren and plans.
Lying on the soft big bed, she was in a daze.
At the moment, she thinks that it is okay to live a life like this, without sorrow or joy. can be fed and clothed, and it is mediocre. I don't want to get involved in right and wrong anymore.
It's just that if she can take a look at the holy decree of the year with her own eyes and find out the clues of the year in person, the right and wrong of the grievances may be clear.
"Miss! You don't come to the palace when you enter the palace, the emperor doesn't come to the palace, I'm holding grievances for you, why aren't you in a hurry? Xiaohong saw that she was unhurried, and stomped her feet in a hurry.
"If you call me Miss again, and call yourself 'me' again, you won't be able to save you if you are hit by the board in the future." Ruoyun closed her eyes and smiled.
"Oh......" Xiaohong thought for a moment and pouted again, "If Niangniang also calls herself 'me' in front of her subordinates, isn't it also rude?" ”
She was stunned for a moment, and then remembered the emperor's prickly words.
In the future, she should call herself "Bengong", and she should call herself "concubine" to the emperor, and she should be "sister" to the queen/palace concubines.
She didn't answer, and her expression became lonely.
Xiaohong shrunk her neck, hurriedly diverted her words, and after a few words, someone from the palace brought a meal.
Ruoyun's body seemed to have rested enough, and now she no longer had colic in her abdomen, but she had no appetite at all, so she was ruthless, so she ordered a light dish and ate a full bowl.
As soon as she put down the dishes and chopsticks, Xiaohong brought the medicine bowl.
She instinctively shrank and looked at Shang Xiaohong suspiciously: "Miss, no, Niangniang, weren't you afraid of taking medicine before?" ”
She was stunned again, took it and sniffed it carefully, and found that it was just an ordinary medicinal taste, and finally drank it with confidence, and then sneered: "I thought it was King Huai's decoction, and it was too difficult to swallow after eating it a few times before, so I was just afraid." After saying that, he quickly threw down the medicine bowl and turned his face away.
"Speaking of that Huaiwang, it's really annoying!" Xiaohong took the empty bowl and stomped her feet angrily, "Niangniang, when you were in a coma, those imperial doctors only knew how to prescribe you vomiting and heating medicine, but you just didn't drink it." Without the emperor's will, King Huai refused to enter the palace for treatment, but fortunately, Niangniang, your life is big, Aunt Yixin asked people to pry open your mouth and pour decoction, so that you will be safe! After speaking, he hummed dissatisfied.
Ruoyun heard that it was Yixin, and sighed: "King Huai has always been indifferent, so it's no wonder that he is." I went back and sent someone to send something to Aunt Yixin, so that she would treat me well in vain. ”
"Oh." Xiao Hongfang responded, and the voice of the eunuch outside the door had been heard:
"Xu Zhaorong arrived."
Ruoyun heard that it was Xu Cuiwei, so she remembered her appearance that day, but she didn't expect her to come at this moment, so she hurriedly got out of bed in surprise, put on a gold-painted coat, and said in a deep voice: "Biography." ”
Xiaohong hurriedly tied her clothes and smoothed her hair.
I saw Xu Cuiwei coming in a simple Suyue white dress, with only two or three hairpin rings in her hair, a little grease powder on her face, and a faint tiredness on her face.
Seeing her get up, Xu Cuiwei was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed: "Xu Cuiwei has seen the virtuous concubine Niangniang, and the mother is blessed." ”
"Hurry up, why should your sisters be polite." She reached out and helped her up, motioning for her to be seated.
"When I visited a few days ago, my mother was asleep, but now I see a good one, and Cuiwei is happy for my mother." Xu Cuiwei didn't drink tea after speaking, but just looked around.
If Yun Xiao had something to say, she retreated and left only Xiao Hong.
Xu Cuiwei glanced at Xiaohong, and Ruoyun hurriedly said: "Xiaohong has followed the palace for many years, Xu Zhaorong has something to say, since he has come, it is not as commensurate as you and me." ”
Xu Cuiwei shook her head clearly, and said bluntly: "It wasn't me who pushed you into the water that day." ”
Ruoyun frowned: "Who is that?" ”
Hearing her say this, Ruoyun was more than frightened, there had been no similar thing in many days, she was a lot more relaxed, and she became alert when she mentioned it.
"I don't know what to do." Xu Cuiwei raised her eyebrows and replied calmly, "There were many people in a panic that day, and it happened that many palace people went from all directions to the center of the lake to save Wu Meiren. ”
"The maid is also your person, who knows if Lu Dao is a liar." Xiaohong was dissatisfied and muttered softly to her.
"I believe you are." Ruoyun smiled, Chao Xiaohong made a color, and said, "The scene was chaotic that day, and even if I wronged you, I would have no way to prove it." ”
Xu Cuiwei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Concubine Xian Niangniang, although I only watch from the sidelines, I will never be an enemy of Niangniang, and I don't want to be an enemy of anyone in the palace." Xu Cuiwei said, looking at her directly.
Ruoyun's expression was grim, as if she had heard her promise to Rong Yixuan that day, and she couldn't help but chuckle: "Naturally, this matter will be stopped for the time being, except for the emperor, I am afraid that no one will really see it." And the emperor didn't tell her what he meant.
Xu Cuiwei was hesitating about how to answer, when she suddenly heard a powerful and low but lazy voice coming from outside the door: "I didn't see it, Concubine Xian just missed me so much?" ”
The door opened, and Rong Jinhuan stood tall in a blue casual dress, with a hosta in his hair, a dragon embroidered with gold thread on the neckline, and a majestic demeanor. His phoenix eyes were sly, and he approached with his hand, and the warm sun outside the door seemed to be three points cold as he slowly walked into the room.
Ruoyun saw that the eunuch and palace maid behind him were silent, and he didn't know how long he had listened to it, but fortunately, their conversation was not very powerful.
But Xu Cuiwei was still so shocked that her face changed, and she hurriedly stood up and saluted, saying, "The concubine sees the emperor." ”
"Your Majesty!" Xiaohong hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, she just said that the emperor would not come, and she couldn't wait to bite off her tongue, surprised, happy and afraid.
"Yo, my Zhaorong is also there?" Rong Jinhuan glanced at Ruoyun, who was standing in a daze, and turned his head to Xu Cuiwei.
"I came to visit today, but I didn't expect Concubine Xian to be well, so I chatted for a while." Xu Cuiwei calmed down and said busily, "The concubine will not prevent the emperor from talking to the virtuous concubine at the moment, and the concubine will retire." ”
"Hmm." Rong Jinhuan snorted coldly, Xu Cuiwei bowed again, saluted Ruoyun and left hurriedly.
When Xu Cuiwei walked away, Ruoyun saluted with a bitter face, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "The concubine sees the emperor, long live the emperor." Without waiting for him to speak, he continued, "The concubine has only been awake for an hour, and she is sleepy, so if the emperor has nothing to do, please go back." ”
As soon as the words came out, Xiaohong gasped.
"My virtuous concubine is very cold to me." It seems that he has never been so neglected by his concubine, Rong Jinhuan gritted his teeth and glared at her, and his slightly upturned eyes suddenly sharpened.
Although these eyes are similar to Rong Yixuan, their eyes are always cold and ruthless, and their slightly angular faces are handsome, but their expressions are always cloudy and uncertain.
Ruoyun sighed in her heart, and then sneered: "Your Majesty, your virtuous concubine has just returned from the ghost gate, I don't know what else to do except be cold." After speaking, he raised his eyes and looked at him coldly.
"Oh, that's good." Rong Jinhuan didn't laugh angrily, suddenly stepped forward, leaned close to her and whispered in her ear, "It's useless to struggle, now you are my concubine." ”
A faint scent of ambergris penetrated into her nose, her face turned pale, she gritted her teeth fiercely, and the coldness in her eyes shattered into pain.
Yes, he is her husband, and she is just one of his many concubines, this palace sounds good to be a concubine, but in fact, what is the difference between it and ordinary concubines?
She could almost foresee that she would be sent to the cold palace in old age and decay, no, maybe she would die before that, when he found her boring.
Rong Jinhuan looked at her with interest, was silent for a moment, and said coldly to Xiaohong: "You step down!" (To be continued......)
