Chapter Eighty-Three: The Emperor Meets the Queen
Just a few days after the death of the three young handsome men, Gonggong Wei chose three more beautiful men, and these three beautiful men were also the best candidates he thought could take on this task.
He arranged Zhang Jialan in front of the emperor, and arranged two people in Shangshu Mansion without wind and quicksand.
When Zhang Jialan entered the palace, Gonggong Wei personally said: "You not only want the emperor to fall in love with you, but also keep an eye on him and pay attention to his every move." Remember, don't let him find out about our relationship, and we'll send you to the palace tonight!" ”
Gonggong Wei's voice is still so soft and delicate, so that people don't care about the danger in their words at all.
"Yes, Gonggong!"
Zhang Jialan replied.
The windless and quicksand needed a good time to be sent to Shangshufu, so they could only live in Dongchang for the time being.
"Gongzi Zhang, did the factory tell you?"
The old eunuch who brought him into the palace said to him.
"Back to my father-in-law, I've said it!"
"Okay, then we won't repeat it, let's talk about what you want to pay attention to!"
The old eunuch walked in front, Zhang Jialan followed, and they walked all the way towards the palace.
"When you see the emperor later, you must pay attention to etiquette, remember not to look too much, ask too much, and don't make some small movements."
The old eunuch said to Zhang Jialan in the tone of a passerby.
"Yes, father-in-law!"
Zhang Jialan replied.
"Our family entered the palace at the age of ten, and it has been forty years now. Every brick and bowl, every grass and tree in this palace, our family has feelings for them. So, you must keep in mind what our family said, when you see the emperor, you must know what to do and what not to do, what to ask and what not to ask. ”
The old eunuch was not bad, and told Zhang Jialan everything he knew. As for whether the old eunuch was asked by Gonggong Wei to say this, or whether he wanted to say it himself, no one knows, but judging from his expression, he doesn't look like a bad person.
They entered the palace and walked to the emperor's bedchamber.
The old eunuch didn't move forward, he turned to look at Zhang Jialan and said, "Our family will send you here, and it's up to you to go in a while." If the emperor asks, you will say that our family flipped the card and turned over you! ”
"Grandpa Xie!"
After Zhang Jialan thanked her, the old eunuch shouted at the door: "Zhang Gongzi has arrived!" ”
After saying that, he turned and left.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?"
The little eunuch shouted softly in front of the emperor's dragon couch.
"What's wrong?"
The emperor asked.
"Zhang Gongzi is here to sleep!"
The little eunuch said.
"Zhang Gongzi? Which Zhang Gongzi? ”
The emperor didn't know who this Zhang Gongzi was, he was the emperor, and he didn't even recognize the eunuchs in the palace, let alone this Zhang Gongzi.
"Back to the emperor, Zhang Gongzi is one of the many male favorites, you may or may not have met him."
The little eunuch replied.
"Then why is he here today?"
The emperor asked.
"Back to the emperor, it's his turn to turn over the cards tonight, if you don't have other requirements, then it's time for him to sleep!"
The little eunuch replied.
"Then let him in!"
The emperor said.
"Your Majesty, what's the matter? It must have been rejected in the original place, because the emperor has his favorite male pet! ”
"Yes!"
The little eunuch hesitated for a moment before speaking.
The little eunuch walked to the door, opened the door and said, "Zhang Gongzi, come in!" ”
Zhang Jialan smiled and nodded, and then walked in.
He saw the emperor lying on the dragon couch, and knelt down unhurriedly: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live!" ”
"Get up!"
The emperor said.
But after a while, I didn't hear the emperor speak again, and after a while, the emperor snored slightly. It dawned on him that the emperor was asleep.
"Since the emperor is asleep, then I'll wait for him to wake up!"
Zhang Jialan sat on the ground, didn't say a word, and didn't go up to disturb the emperor's sleep, just sat on the ground and waited quietly for him to wake up.
......
"Have you figured out what to do next?"
Chunqiu looked a little worried, he seemed to be very concerned about Wanjun's attitude towards this matter.
"What do you want to do?"
Wanjun continued to eat, not seeing Chunqiu's nervous and urgent appearance.
"How do we fight our way out of the embattled predicament?"
Chunqiu asked impatiently.
"This, I haven't figured this out yet, but now that we have won the emperor, we can relax for the time being!"
Wanjun's heart wasn't so nervous, and he didn't care that much, he just wanted to finish the meal well.
"Relax? How can you relax? Don't you know that danger is all around us? Aren't you afraid? ”
Chunqiu was so nervous that his brows tightened, as if Wanjun couldn't think of a way, he wouldn't even be in the mood to eat.
Wanjun put down his chopsticks and looked at Chunqiu, he stared at him for a long time and smiled: "What's wrong with you?" When did you start caring so much about these things? ”
Chunqiu was taken aback by Wanjun's indifference, and he didn't know when he became so calm and calm.
"Wanjun, I'm worried about you, because I'm nothing now, and nothing can help you. But whenever I think about the danger you are living, I am terrified. ”
Chunqiu looked at Wanjun's eyes affectionately and sincerely.
"If you promise me, let me share my sorrows with you, and let me face the danger with you! Only then did I feel less incompetent! ”
After he finished speaking, he picked up the chopsticks and put a chopstick dish into his bowl, and said with a smile: "Promise me, okay?" ”
Wanjun was very moved, his eyes were filled with tears, he didn't know that Chunqiu cared about him so much, and he was always worried about his safety.
"Chunqiu, it's good to have you, when I know that there is another person who cares about me so much, I was so moved! I promise you, I'll tell you whatever you do in the future. ”
Wanjun put down her chopsticks, walked behind Chunqiu, and hugged his neck.
"I want to ask if I will never find someone who loves me more than you, just let me hold you like this and never let go for the rest of my life!"
Chunqiu patted his hand and smiled: "Fool, we will definitely be together for the rest of our lives, you are holding back these stupid words!" ”
"No, I'm going to say, I'm going to say my love for you!"
Wanjun put her face on Chunqiu's face and sprinkled on him.
Although Wanjun told him that he would tell him anything in the future, he had another calculation in his heart.
"Chunqiu, I'm sorry, there are some things I still won't tell you, not because I don't want to tell you, but because I love you. Forgive me for my helplessness, forgive me for not being able to tell you everything! ”
Wanjun hugged Chunqiu's neck tightly, and he needed to hold him more than ever. Because he lied, he said so much panic to him, and he still loved him.
......
When the emperor woke up the next morning, he found Zhang Jialan crawling on the ground and falling asleep. He looked at his delicate and delicate face, and he couldn't bear it.
He opened the door and walked out and said to the eunuch guarding the door, "Cover him with a quilt!" ”
After the emperor finished speaking, he turned around and glanced at Zhang Jialan, shook his head helplessly, closed the door and went out.
Yesterday during the day, he won the queen and was going to go there for dinner, so he had to go there early.
The emperor didn't know that his action made the palace boil, and everyone's jaws dropped in shock. They felt that the emperor was either sick, or he really had a big change.
Yes, the emperor once said that he would come to the queen to dine here, even if he stepped into Kunning Palace, it was impossible. But today, he actually got up early and went to the queen's place for dinner. This became a big news in the palace, and soon the news spread and everyone knew about it.
"Niangniang, Niangniang, the emperor is here, the emperor is here......"
The little palace maid Millennium hurriedly ran to the queen's bedroom to call her.
"What, the emperor is here? The main palace hasn't been cleaned up yet! You see that I haven't chosen this dress yet, and I haven't worn my hair accessories yet, what should I do? ”
The queen frantically rummaged around on the dresser.
"What are you doing when you change sides, why don't you come over and help this palace!"
The queen panicked all of a sudden, he and the emperor hadn't eaten together for decades, and suddenly the emperor came, and she seemed flustered.
"Yes!"
Millennium ran over to help the queen put on her hair accessories and dress.
Millennium looked at the queen in the mirror and smiled: "Niangniang, you are so beautiful!" ”
The queen saw that her face was full of wrinkles and her face was much darker, and she shook her head helplessly.
"Old ......"
"Millennium, is breakfast ready?"
The queen asked.
"It's all ready, sis."
Millennium said.
"Okay, then help the palace to go out to greet the emperor!"
The queen stood up and held out her hand to Millennial's hand.
"The emperor has arrived!"
The eunuch outside the door shouted.
When the queen heard that the emperor was about to come in, she was very nervous, and her panicked eyes had nowhere to put for a while.
The emperor came in from outside the door, and the queen and a group of subordinates knelt down and said, "Long live the emperor, long live, long live!" ”
When the queen finished speaking, her eyes welled up with tears. For so many years, she thought about it day and night, and dreamed that the emperor would come to see her. Now that the emperor is here, she doesn't dare to look at him directly.
"Hurry up!"
The emperor hurriedly walked over to help the queen up, their eyes facing each other, tears rolling in their eyes.
"Your Majesty, you're finally here!"
The queen looked at the emperor for a long time and couldn't let go.
"Queen, you've been wronged!"
Although the emperor and the queen had only met for the first time, he could see from her eyes that the emperor owed her too much.
"Your Majesty, the concubines wait, wait, wait, wait, finally wait for you to come. The concubine thought she couldn't wait for you to come any longer! ”
The queen burst into tears as she spoke.
"Queen, come to dinner, see you're all haggard!"
The emperor put a chopstick dish in the bowl for the queen and looked at her affectionately.
"Does the emperor remember? We met for the first time twenty years ago, and you were graceful and handsome at that time, and the concubine liked you at first sight! ”
Before the tears in the queen's eyes were dry, she remembered the story of their first meeting twenty years ago.
"The queen has a good memory, I still remember the events of twenty years ago!"
The emperor smiled.
The queen took out her handkerchief and gently wiped the tears from her face.
"As long as it is related to the emperor, the concubines will not forget it."
