Chapter Ninety-Eight: Old Things in the Deep Palace

Updated: 2014-03-16

It's just that others don't know that she has long been unique in the world in his mind.

Qin Yunuan knew that she was talking about herself, she met Leng Changxi's gentle eyes like the sea, at that moment, her heart was extremely peaceful, this kind of tranquility had never been seen in the Taiwei Mansion.

After hearing this, Sima Xiu smiled and praised: "General Leng's vision is really unique and insightful. After that, the father-in-law came back and forth with interest and said that the banquet table had been prepared.

Sima Xiu wanted to skillfully bring the topic of Fang Cai, but who expected Sai Chun to still not give up, their grassland children were already straightforward and stubborn, but now after listening to Leng Changxi's words, Sai Chun turned out to be angry for no reason, she stood up, broke free from the maid who pulled her to sit down next to her, and shouted at Leng Changxi: "What do you mean, that is, I am not strong or smart, and I am not worthy of you?" ”

Wan Yansu knew that his sister was stubborn, but he didn't expect that she was as bold and careless as she was in Beidi, this is Daqi, Daqi, who has fought with Beidi for decades, this trip should have been walking on thin ice, he didn't want to waste all his efforts in the hands of this ignorant sister.

He strode forward, made a gesture to support the somewhat impulsive Sai Chun, and said apologetically to Sima Xiu and Leng Changxi: "Ah Mei is used to being open-minded in the grassland, and the Khan has always doted on her, so she talked nonsense for a while, the emperor of Great Qi, the great general of Great Qi, you are all not strange." Wan Yansu said as he plunged a small silver needle between the middle and ring fingers of his right hand into Sai Chun's neck.

On the top is the most powerful anesthetic, which is often used when hunting large game in the grasslands, and the effect is excellent.

Leng Changxi just nodded slightly, how could Wan Yansu's little action be hidden from his eyes, but this was a matter between people, so he didn't bother to check it.

"Ah Mei is tired of traveling, I guess I'm sleepy." Wan Yan Su hugged Sai Chun, who was already a little drowsy, bowed to Sima Xiu and saluted, "Let me send Ah Mei back to the tent first, and then drink and talk with you, Your Majesty." ”

Sima Xiu was quite satisfied with this result, he nodded, and his tone was extremely polite.

From the shooting range to the banquet banquet, Sima Han never appeared, and Qin Yuzhao seemed to be unable to wait.

"What about the stupid big man? Is something wrong? Qin Yuzhao was extremely dishonest in the seat, pulling Tong'er for a while to let her peel chestnuts for herself to eat, and then attached to Qin Yunuan's shoulder and whispered to ask Sima Han about the situation.

The banquet in the hunting ground was arranged in the style of a grassland bonfire, the open-air seats were surrounded by thick oak pillars with a strong and smooth beige canvas, and the mahogany table had no chairs, just a thick blanket, and everyone sat on the ground, but fortunately, Empress Chen thought it out very thoroughly, and added a layer of cool jade mat to each mat, and the roasted whole sheep was also roasted outside with an open flame before being sent in.

Qin Yunuan sat on the periphery with a group of female dependents, which was an extremely inconspicuous position, but she could see the situation in the field very clearly.

Because of Qin Yuzhao's turmoil, the jade mat under her buttocks had been rubbed out of her seat, Qin Yunuan picked it up for her sideways, and happened to see Man'er, who was sent out by her to inquire about the news just now, coming back.

"How?" Qin Yunuan asked while pretending to let Man'er pour fruit wine for herself.

"As the third girl guessed, the fourth prince has been put under house arrest by Concubine Duan, and Concubine Duan only said to the emperor that the fourth prince is unwell and needs to recuperate."

"Not feeling well? Sure enough," Qin Yunuan took a sip of fruit wine, "Last time in the palace, I saw Concubine Duan's eyes looking at the Fourth Highness was wrong, although she is usually extremely gentle and full of maternal love, but when the Fourth Highness knocked over the plate of snails, the ruthlessness that flashed in her eyes was simply like two people in her usual days." ”

The more extreme the person, the more secrets he has, thinking of the last time Sima Han said to himself that Concubine Duan would like to let Concubine Yu eat all the snails, Qin Yunuan is even more sure that the miscarriage of the child in Concubine Yu's belly is absolutely inseparable from Concubine Duan.

She can't do it alone, after all, it is not the snail but the clam that really makes the jade concubine have a miscarriage, the noble man who died for the noble, the Sima Rui who has been watched by the noble man for a long time, and the Queen Chen who makes Sima Rui obey his words, all of them are connected in series.

Qin Yunuan looked up at the dignified and graceful mother of a country sitting next to Sima Xiu, she smiled elegantly, and gently asked Wan Yan Su if she could still get used to it in Daqi, she gently seemed to exude a halo behind her, and Sima Rui flexibly wandered in the hearts of every minister, leaving people with an image of motherly kindness and filial piety.

Daqi values family ethics, and their mother and son are obviously much more likable than Yun Guifei and Sima Rui.

It's really like a gathering of things, Qin Yunuan twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, and sneered in his heart.

"Third sister, what about the stupid big man?" This is the first time Qin Yuzhao has asked this night.

Qin Yunuan glanced at Man'er, and Man'er also nodded firmly.

"It's coming out soon, don't worry." Qin Yunuan patted her lightly on Qin Yuzhao's little hand, soothing her heart, subconsciously, she looked away again, looking at Leng Changxi, who was sitting opposite, her fingertips were rhythmically rubbing the wine cup but not drinking, it seemed to be telepathic, and at the moment when Qin Yunuan's gaze passed, Leng Changxi also turned around, and a gentle smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his heart warmed up.

There weren't many people invited to tonight's banquet, they were all harem ladies and princes and young ladies like Qin Yunuan, and Wan Yansu was also talking about it, sometimes laughing, sometimes making timely comments, a fusion scene.

Just when he was drunk, a loud shout suddenly came from outside: "Mother, you are bad, how can you lock me up?" ”

While speaking, Sima Han had already rushed in from outside, sweating profusely, and his mouth kept counting the concubines: "It's hot in the tent and I haven't eaten yet, mother, you don't hurt me at all, I just told you that I want to bring the fairy sister back to the palace?" ”

Concubine Duan's face changed when she boarded, she obviously sent a few tall and powerful guards to guard the door, who knew that even this made this silly Sima Han escape.

"Yo, sister, why are you still locking up the four princes?" Concubine Yun's warbler-like voice was very handy when she said this mean words, "Look at how stuffy the tent is on this day, this is really not my own and I don't feel distressed." ”

Empress Chen came forward to relieve the siege and said: "It's not a day or two for Concubine Duan's sister to take care of the four princes, maybe it's the fourth prince who is in trouble again, and now there are guests from afar, and Sister Duanfei really has no choice." ”

"Alas, the queen is generous, and she thinks about Sister Duanfei everywhere, but her sister lost her words." Concubine Yun owes money to her head, but her voice is really crisp and sarcastic, and the queen is full of hypocrisy about being a good old man.

Sima Xiu only glanced sideways at the woman who was a little vindictive, frowned, and said to Sima Han: "Your mother said that you are not feeling well, and when you came, you played so many horse handles, and you need to rest, it is also for your own good." ”

Sima Han immediately shouted: "Where is it for my good, father, look at the son, where is there any discomfort, it is the mother concubine, I heard that there is a roast whole sheep tonight, the mother concubine is selfish, last time I was not allowed to eat the snails of the jade concubine Niangniang, and this time I was not allowed to eat the sheep brought by the prince of Beidi from the grassland." ”

As soon as he mentioned the previous incident, Sima Xiu's face immediately changed, the loss of a child already made him heartbroken, and now Sima Han is so nonsense, and his tone is a little tough: "Among my sons, you are the most nonsense, the most worrying, now that there are guests from afar, your mother and concubine have done the right thing, you should take a good pass." ”

Hearing Sima Xiu say such angry words, Concubine Duan's originally hanging heart fell to the ground, she glanced at Empress Chen quietly as if she was asking, and when she got a look that made her feel at ease, the anger on her face was naturally restrained, and she said with maternal love: "Han'er, look at you, why did you come out again, alas, you are really a person and your temper is also bad, why don't you apologize to your father and emperor quickly?" ”

"I don't want it," Sima Han continued to shout, "Mother concubine, you just don't like me, you don't give me anything good to eat, but every year on the seventh day of the seventh month of July, you leave a lot of roast goose fruits and candles and go to Weiyang Palace to eat secretly behind your back, I don't like my mother anymore." ”

The seventh day of July? Weiyang Palace?

This is the second time Qin Yunuan has heard the name of this date and the palace, the last time was in the previous life, she tried to recall, and suddenly remembered, in addition to the current emperor, the queen mother also gave birth to a princess, the first emperor gave the name Yuanhe, is the eldest princess of Daqi, and Weiyang Palace is the palace where Princess Yuanhe has been living before going to Xixia and Qin, and later Princess Yuanhe was separated from the team on the road of Xixia and Qin, the Queen Mother was heartbroken, the first emperor had sent three thousand Mengjia troops into Xixia to search but found nothing, I am afraid that life and death have long been uncertain.

And the seventh day of the seventh month of July is a bizarre day, that day, heavy rain pours, but the long-idle Weiyang Palace is in this wet rainy day fire, the fire burned for three days and three nights before being extinguished, Weiyang Palace has also become unrecognizable, and now the Weiyang Palace is also rebuilt exactly the same as the original drawings after that day.

The queen mother thinks about the girl, the emperor feels sorry for her sister, the rebuilt Weiyang Palace is blocked, except for the emperor and the queen mother occasionally go in to see things and think about people, no one else is allowed to enter, especially on the seventh day of July every year, for this reason, the emperor also executed a concubine who broke into the Weiyang Palace because she got lost.

And now, Sima Han's seemingly unintentional shouting has pushed Concubine Duan to the forefront, on the seventh day of July every year, why does Concubine Duan appear in Weiyang Palace?
