Chapter 307: Accompaniment
Not to mention the eldest prince and the second prince, even Empress Pei was a little stunned when she learned that she was going to go to Huangzhuang with Emperor Xuanhe.
Why did Emperor Xuanhe suddenly let her accompany her?
Empress Pei suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and said softly: "Your Majesty, in the past, Emperor Zheng's concubines accompanied her to serve, and the concubines never went out of the palace or to the imperial village. I'm afraid that the service is not thorough......"
"It's okay," Emperor Xuanhe was in a good mood, and he couldn't get a glimpse of it from his face: "Trivial matters such as food, clothing, and daily living are served by people in the palace." You have been sick in the palace for many years, and now that you are in good health, it is better to go out of the palace with me. ”
As he spoke, he quietly glanced at Cheng Jinrong beside Queen Pei.
Cheng Jinrong went to the Baohe Hall once a day to ask for peace and security, and the rest of the time he was in the Jiaofang Palace, accompanying Queen Pei. Empress Pei's preference for Cheng Jinrong is well known to everyone in the palace.
Cheng Jinrong's closeness to Queen Pei is also obvious to all.
This time he went to Huangzhuang, Emperor Xuanhe did not bring Emperor Zheng's concubine, but asked Empress Pei to accompany him. The reason for this is only known to Cheng Jinrong.
Thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace.
Emperor Xuanhe opened his mouth, but Empress Pei was reluctant, and she had to show a happy look: "Since the emperor said so, the concubines were disrespectful, so they took the order." ”
Then, he smiled casually: "In addition to the concubines, bring some young concubines with you." Zhao Guiren is good at singing, Luo Guiren is good at dancing, and when the emperor is depressed, he can also listen to singing and dancing. There is also Xu Meiren, who lost her honor in front of the saint during the hunt last autumn, and blamed herself in front of the concubines after returning to the palace. This time, let Xu Meiren serve the holy driver together, which can be regarded as giving her a chance to atone for her crimes. ”
When you go to Huangzhuang to "relax", you really have to bring some concubines to make a show.
It's the same with everyone. He wouldn't summon Lin Xing anyway.
Emperor Xuanhe nodded casually.
That night, Emperor Xuanhe had dinner in the Jiaofang Palace, but did not stay overnight.
Empress Pei secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and after sending off the Son of Heaven, she called Cheng Jinrong into the bedroom and asked in a low voice, "Jinrong, what the hell is going on?" ”
"Why did the emperor suddenly want to go to the Huangzhuang to live for a while?"
"Also, the emperor has ordered Emperor Zheng's concubine to go every year, and this time he specially summoned me to accompany him. I always felt that there must be something inside. ”
Cheng Jinrong didn't plan to hide it from Queen Pei anymore, and said softly: "The emperor went to Huangzhuang to treat his illness. ”
Queen Pei was startled and looked at Cheng Jinrong suddenly.
"The emperor's illness, I am ninety percent sure that it can be cured." Cheng Jinrong raised his eyes and looked at the shocked Empress Pei: "In fact, the emperor has been out of the palace twice to see how I treat patients. ”
"I'm good at surgery and I can treat patients with an open abdomen. It's just that there are certain risks associated with such a treatment. Even if the treatment is successful, the patient will have to rest on the bed for several months. ”
"There are many people in the palace, and there are not many people who watch the whereabouts of the Son of Heaven and figure out the holy will. Therefore, the emperor decided to go to Huangzhuang to 'live' for a while. Wait for the symptoms to heal before returning to the palace. ”
"The emperor was extremely suspicious, and when he went to Huangzhuang for treatment, he only told the Duke of Weiguo and the Duke of Jingguo. Everyone in the palace was kept in the dark, even the eldest prince and the second prince didn't know, and Emperor Zheng didn't know either. ”
"Before, I never talked about it with my mother, because I was afraid that my mother would be too worried and show clues. If the emperor finds out, he will definitely be angry with Niangniang, and he will also be suspicious of me. ”
"My mother and I have always been close. The emperor ordered the mother to accompany me, obviously he also had the intention of restraining me. ”
……
I see!
Empress Pei's mind was in turmoil, like a mess, and she shook Cheng Jinrong's hand suddenly: "Jinrong! It's too dangerous! If you had consulted with me beforehand, I would have stopped you. ”
Being able to cure Emperor Xuanhe's illness is a great achievement. With this credit, Cheng Jinrong can firmly establish himself in the palace, and he will have a splendid future for a lifetime.
But in case......
In case Emperor Xuanhe has a good deal, Cheng Jinrong will have no way to live!
Queen Pei's hands kept trembling, and her palms were covered with cold sweat.
Cheng Jinrong's hand was warm and powerful, holding Queen Pei's hand tightly, and his eyes flashed with confidence and firmness: "Rest assured, I have been preparing for this day for a long time." ”
"Cure the emperor's illness, and the emperor will not die as early as I dreamed. With the emperor here, no matter how shaky the Great Chu is, it can also support it. No matter how the eldest prince and the second prince compete for the crown, at least, there will be no more tragedy in which the border pass is broken and thousands of people and soldiers are killed. Yuan Silan also didn't want to leave Beijing half a step away. ”
"Personally, I have made this great achievement, and I will be able to gain a firm foothold in the palace in the future. Niangniang can also take this opportunity to win the emperor's trust. ”
Queen Pei is no longer the weak woman who cried and cried at every turn, and she also understood the meaning of Cheng Jinrong's words.
Emperor Xuanhe went to Huangzhuang for at least three months. In these three months, she could ask for warmth and serve carefully, so as to win the favor of Emperor Xuanhe.
A queen of the middle palace who has been favored by the Son of Heaven can no longer be shaken in the harem.
This is a great opportunity for both mother and daughter.
Empress Pei exhaled deeply and forced herself to calm down: "You're right. It was I who was so frightened that I almost lost my mind. ”
This is indeed a great opportunity!
The matter has come to this point, there is no way back, so let go of all worries and move forward!
Cheng Jinrong smiled slightly: "Niangniang is worried about my safety, that's why she is so frightened." Rest assured! I will definitely be able to cure the emperor's illness. ”
Queen Pei didn't say any more frustrating words: "I'll let people pack their bags tomorrow." After a pause, he said: "This time, let Qingdai and Wolan also go to Huangzhuang together." However, after they went, they didn't have to come back. ”
When it came to the last sentence, there was a chill in the words.
As a queen, it is not difficult to "clean up" the two palace maids around her. It's just that there are many eyes and ears in the palace, and it is quite inconvenient to start. There are also Emperor Zheng's concubines staring at him, and there are Yong'an Hou and his wife outside the palace staring at the movement in the palace.
Therefore, Queen Pei held back.
When I went to Huangzhuang, it was much more convenient to do things.
Cheng Jinrong nodded slightly, but did not say much.
In life, if you are gentle and kind, you will only be considered weak and deceitful. Just like Pei Wanru before, she was trapped in the Jiaofang Hall by Qing Daixiang Blue, and she was so suppressed that she couldn't move.
Today's Empress Pei has understood the use of power, and she is slowly learning to control power. even took the opportunity to leave the palace to get rid of the two in one fell swoop.
Such a change is a good thing for the current Queen Pei.
As for what will happen in the future, Cheng Jinrong didn't think much about it, and he didn't need to think about it.
The road is under your feet, and you can only move forward. At the fork in the road, everyone has a choice. No matter where she goes, she is her own mother.
