Chapter 161: I want to know the year when I was the concubine

When he was a child, he often wondered which statement was true or neither? It's just a slave chewing the root of his tongue. In short, it's true that my father doesn't like him.

So Hetai also understood that no matter what the situation was, the result was surprisingly consistent: the emperor may really not want to see everything related to Rong Concubine, good or bad, so he also includes himself.

When he was a child, his mind was filled with these questions. So he's sad, he's cold, he's not smiling. Because life didn't make him happy.

The only warmth may be the Queen Mother's love for him. The woman of high status occasionally held him in her lap and often said, "Tai'er is blessed and has a mourning family, and will not let you be wronged." is good in this Rongxiang Palace, and it can be regarded as the mourning family doing something for the Rong Concubine. In the final analysis, the emperor owes her an explanation, and this palace also owes her. ”

The Queen Mother's voice was low in her ears, as gentle as a lullaby, and the second half of the sentence was more like a murmur. Haunting his childhood ears. Maybe the Queen Mother thinks that the little baby can't understand it, but in fact, even Hetai is strange, she has no memory of many things in her childhood, but she only remembers this scene.

When I got older, I couldn't hear the Queen Mother say this anymore, but she said more, "Tai'er must study hard, govern the country and rejuvenate the country, and in the future, it will be useful." The mourning family is old, I can't accompany you for many years, I can't protect you for many years, and in the future, I still have to rely on myself. ”

Hetai didn't care about these words, what does the country's affairs have to do with him, he is not a minister, and he is not the emperor. However, he still did what the Queen Mother said, and studied hard, although the master did not value himself, and his mind was always spent on those beautiful princes and princesses. But Hetai still worked hard to learn. The main thing is that there is nothing else to do except study, and those princes and princesses are playing together, but they have left themselves behind.

No one plays Hetai, but it doesn't matter, but they found a good place, a palace where no one lives, get up first because there are a few jujube trees in the yard, climb up to pick jujube to eat, and then find that you can see the scenery that you usually can't see on the tree, and experience the feeling of being high.

I don't know which day he was looking at the distance from the tree in a daze, and saw an old man also come to this courtyard, this old man was not dressed as a eunuch, Hetai didn't know who he was, but he wasn't afraid. The old man entered the courtyard and took care of himself and punched and kicked, the tiger was vigorous, and he was dazzled by the crane, and he also followed the gesture of stretching out his hands and feet, but he forgot that he was on a tree, and an upside-down onion fell down.

There was no half-dead thing that happened, and the old man caught himself. Later, the old man became Hetai's master, and gave him martial arts without reservation, but there was only one requirement, that is, to keep it secret, and not to show that he knew martial arts in the palace, which was also a kind of protection for him.

So before going to the battlefield, no one knew that he knew martial arts, let alone that his martial arts were so profound. It is precisely because of this martial arts and the master's teaching to him that he did not die on the battlefield. It's just that why did the master come to the palace alone to teach himself martial arts? Hetai didn't know, he once asked, the master only said that it was fate, and when he asked again, the master kept silent.

Mother Concubine Rong also went early, Hetai was only two years old at the time, and he had no memory of what happened at that time, let alone in detail, so even the memories of his mother were pitiful. Finally, a master came, and the master didn't want to say much except to teach himself.

For a while, he felt that his life was a blank slate. Nothing, nothing. I don't know what the meaning of life is?

That night, I suddenly heard her talk about her mother from Concubine Rou, saying that her mother should also keep her eyebrows down and obey the rules in front of her, otherwise punishing her is just a matter of words. Hetai had never thought about what his mother's situation was in the palace at that time.

At the moment, although Concubine Rou only said these two words, the implication was clearly that her mother's situation back then was not good, otherwise how could she be so lowly, or often punished by her? At that time, I didn't think about it in order to get out, but the more I thought about it later, the more wrong it became, and the more I wanted to know about the things of the year and know about my mother's concubine. once asked the Queen Mother about her mother, but she didn't say anything. I sent myself away with a few innocuous words, thinking that it was already in the past anyway, and if I don't know, I don't know. and so as not to add to the cares.

But now I suddenly heard the words of Concubine Rou that meant that her mother was not doing well back then, if she was really cautious and looked up to people's snorts, could she be applauded? Hetai suddenly had a strong idea, wanting to know about her mother's concubine, and wondering if Concubine Rou had really made it difficult to punish her mother. I wonder what it was like back then.

In his heart, he actually didn't want his mother to live unsatisfactorily. So I'm afraid that the truth of the matter is really like that, and I will add to my heartache and discomfort. But he still wants to know, so that he can fill the gaps in his heart that he doesn't know.

And thinking of the incident in this palace that he had been exposed to since he was a child, he was even more excited, and he couldn't say that his mother was bullied and framed? What's more, maybe it wasn't a natural death? Thinking of this, Hetai was even more determined to ask the truth!

It's just a few years ago, who is going to ask? Even if there is a little bit of knowledge, who dares to tell me directly?

The queen mother will not, the emperor will not, the queen will not, Concubine Rou herself has said that she is not good to Concubine Rong, let alone say it. As for the minions, they know that they will rot in their stomachs.

Thinking about it, I suddenly remembered a person. With her status and seniority in this palace, maybe she can know something, and she is in such a situation now, or the only one who has no scruples. What could be more terrible than being locked up in a ruined yard and living in the dark?

The huge contrast between this moment and that moment may make her extremely unbalanced, and the biggest revenge against this kind of day may be to say something secret that she knows.

This person is Concubine Su.

After locking the target, Hetai did not delay, and immediately went to the waste palace where Su Guifei was imprisoned, whether she knew it or not, whether she said it or not, she still had to try.

The dilapidated palace stood quietly at night, and it seemed particularly quiet, even the saber guards who patrolled at night would bypass it and patrol the front and back of the lively palace.

The ruined palace, the guilty abandoned concubine, who cares if there is danger here. It's already secluded, but it's even more peaceful at night.

From the palace gate to the courtyard was empty, Hetai arrived in front of the palace gate all the way unhindered.

At this time, Concubine Su was sitting on the bed in the broken hall, and the bed cover exuded a heavy musty smell. She rolled it up and threw it at the foot of the bed, and she didn't need to cover it in summer anyway.

A candle flame burned on the table, and tears fell and piled up on the table. The candlelight was dim, and even her face was dim, which made people feel her depressed mood, and now Su Guifei was not as bright as before, and her sharp personality was gradually lost its edges.

What days were lived before, and what days are lived now. It's indescribable, even heaven and earth.

In the past, in the Lan Raid Palace, it was not ginseng soup before going to bed and bird's nest porridge when I woke up. Longan lotus seed soup is used to rinse the mouth, and flower petals are used for soaking feet. Looking at it now, it would be good to be able to drink a sip of fresh tofu and vegetable soup.

In the past, the eunuchs and palace maids served from head to toe, but now although there are two people in this waste palace, a eunuch and a grandmother, they don't serve themselves as masters at all, let alone as masters, even slaves are not as good, and they still have to be angry with them, it is better not to have any. But if not, I'm afraid there will be no one to go to the dining room to get food.

Anyway, except for the two of them glancing in front of them every day, they can't see the figures, they don't know where to hide to be lazy and slippery, and I heard that they are not dedicated to this palace, but they also have to run a few errands in the abandoned palace. To put it nicely, it's an errand, but it's actually the time for the meal, and the meal is thrown there, and the errand is counted.

Think about the past, and look at the present, it is only because there is still some hope in my heart, hoping that the emperor will remember himself a little bit one day and have room for maneuver. Although she knew that this was unlikely, if there was no hope left, she would not be able to live.

Just as she was feeling sorry for herself, she saw that the door of the palace was pushed open, and Concubine Su stood up in surprise and walked from the inner room to the main hall. Who is going to come at such a late hour? Those two minions have never appeared at this point. A look of panic flashed across her face. When I walked quickly to the hall, I saw a tall and majestic figure standing outside the wide open temple door. By the moonlight, she frowned and took a few closer looks, only to see that it was Hetai.

Concubine Su didn't understand why Hetai came, but when she saw that it was him, the panic on her face disappeared.

"I don't know why King Jin came here late at night?" said and walked slowly to the chair in the hall and sat down.

Hetai raised his eyebrows, and also walked over the threshold, and when he arrived at the temple, his brocade clothes and the broken temple formed a sharp contrast, like an awe-inspiring god descending.

He stood still, and did not answer Su Guifei's words directly, but looked around. shook his head and said, "I can't imagine that the concubine Niangniang lives in this kind of place now, so I'm really a little wronged." Are you still used to it?"

When Concubine Su Guifei heard him say that he had lived with grievances, a light of hope appeared in her eyes, but it was extinguished in an instant. At that moment of hope, she wanted to beg Hetai to say a good word to herself in front of the emperor, even if she couldn't forgive her sins, she could not live in this place.

But how is that possible? How can he help himself, Mo said that he has nothing to do with him, and even if he is, he is in trouble, and when the wall is falling and everyone is pushing, who will lend a hand. If you don't get it, you will be treated as a member of the same party and be convicted together. And so hope was disillusioned.

She knew there was little hope. He smiled bitterly, "I'm used to it." Now this palace is just a criminal concubine, what else can you hope for, it is already the emperor's Longen to keep this life. ”

Hetai looked at her bleak expression for a moment, the former concubine Su Guifei has always been arrogant and graceful, and would never say such self-abandoning words, it seems that the life here is indeed sad, and the frustration has penetrated into her blood and bones.
