Chapter 226: Extra Special to Her
"Back to the emperor, back to Niangniang, as the spirit star is getting closer and closer, it is known."
"Say."
"The spirit star is approaching the east, the east of the palace, the spirit star is honored, I don't know which lady can be in the palace, or the princess, the princess, the prince, etc., the birthday."
"In the east, the birthday is the ...... of the year of Yimao"
Yun Rongjue stared and pondered.
"Your Majesty, the concubines remember that there are many palaces located in the east of the palace, and there are not too many of those who are born in this year, it should be easy to check, Chai Neiguan."
"You should check carefully, in the east of the palace, there is a prince and princess who lived, who was born in the year of Yimao." Jiang Sumo commanded.
"Yes." Chai Neiguan retreated.
"Although there are not too many people born in the second year, if there are a few, what will they do?" Yun Rongjue asked.
"Your Majesty, wait for Weichen to take a closer look."
Lingxing means that the east side of the year is born, for a while, there was a lot of discussion in the palace.
There are many palaces on the east side, in addition to the concubines who live, there are also many unmarried princesses left by the emperor, and individual princes. For a while, everyone was guessing who this spirit star was referring to.
"Your Majesty, there are two concubines, princesses and princes living in the eastern palace." The official voice of the chai nai.
"Say."
"One is the eighth princess, the youngest princess of the first emperor, and the other is ......" Chai Neiguan hesitated, raised his eyes and glanced at Yun Rongjue's eyes, "Mrs. Jiang." ”
Jiang Sumo subconsciously glanced at Yun Rongjue, and then said in a loud voice: "The envoy of the Heavenly Jian just said that Yi Mao is six, Xing is six, it is the sixth day of the sixth month of June, and the birthday of the eighth princess is the first day of October, and the concubine remembers that Mrs. Jiang has just passed her birthday, which is the sixth day of the sixth month of June. ”
Jiang Sumo spoke, and the worry on Chai Neiguan's face was even stronger, and he looked at Yun Rongjue, not daring to say a word.
Yun Rongjue lowered his eyes slightly, Jun Yi's eyebrows curved in an arc, and he was silent.
Jiang Sumo raised his hand and motioned for Chai Neiguan to retreat.
"Your Majesty, this Lingxing refers to Sister Jiang," she said in surprise, "The emperor forgives his concubines for saying that the cherry blossom country is summer on the sixth day of the sixth month of June, but the sky is full of snow, which is really very abnormal. ”
Yun Rongjue ignored Jiang Sumo's words until Jiang Sumo left the Heart Cultivation Palace.
"Niangniang, you have said so much to the emperor, and the emperor has no response, what does the emperor mean? The emperor has always favored Mrs. Jiang, does he have to protect Mrs. Jiang this time and turn a blind eye to this astrological sign? Whisk asked.
Jiang Sumo's expression was calm and light, "Since ancient times, emperors have cared about celestial phenomena, how can the emperor be an exception." ”
"But the emperor didn't say anything, if the emperor really loved Mrs. Jiang and had the heart to protect him, I'm afraid, it's difficult for others to say anything." Whisk said.
Jiang Sumo was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: "This fire is burning now, but it's just not strong enough, and when it's strong enough, the emperor will be helpless." ”
……
"What's going on with the people in this palace, why do they always seem to be avoiding us." Nanfu looked at the palace people around her, and wrinkled her eyebrows.
Jiang Wu glanced at Yu Guang and knew it in his heart.
"It's spreading in the palace now, haven't you heard?" Jiang Wu spoke softly.
Nanfu pouted, "The slave maid heard about it, isn't it that Guantianjian said something about the astrological anomaly, saying that there are spiritual stars in the sky, which is a demonic direction, and said ......" Nanfu almost blurted out.
Jiang Wu listened, and the emotion on his little face was always faint, "I also said that this spirit star is me." ”
"Look at it, this is what those people are talking nonsense, what kind of spirit star, Xiao Wu, you are a good person, why do you have something to do with that spirit star." Nanfu said.
Jiang Wu smiled helplessly and said nothing.
When she arrived at Shoukang Palace, Zhang Ruo and the others had already arrived, talking to the princess.
"Concubines, see Concubine Niangniang." She owed a courtesy to the princess.
When the princess saw Jiang Wu, a smile appeared on her peaceful face. Jiang Wu came, and her words also increased.
The princess likes ginger dance, which is something that everyone knows.
As soon as Jiang Wu came, the princess seemed to have no one else in her eyes.
Jiang Sumo and Zhang Ruo looked at each other, with complicated and embarrassed expressions on their faces.
"Concubine Niangniang, I don't know Concubine Niangniang, I have heard of a strange thing recently." Zhang Ruo spoke.
The princess glanced at Zhang Ruo, "What strange things can happen in the inner courtyard of this deep palace." ”
Zhang Ruo covered his lips, "This astrological phenomenon, the concubine has rarely heard of it before, no, I heard what Guan Tianjian said, saying that the celestial phenomena have been different recently, there is a spiritual star approaching, and the main demon is different." ”
The emotion on Jiang Wuxiao's face paused slightly, and he glanced at Zhang Ruo.
The princess looked at the two of them, and then smiled, "What do you think it is, it turns out that it is a star phenomenon, this star is not easy to say, who knows if it is true or not?" ”
Zhang Ruo and Jiang Sumo glanced at each other, and Zhang Ruo continued: "What the concubine Niangniang said is reasonable, the celestial phenomenon is difficult to say, but since ancient times, there has been a Guantianjian, and the concubine remembers that in the past, the record of the Guantianjian recorded that there are good things when there are good things, and when there are different phenomena, the disaster is not small, and not to mention anything else, just some time ago, on the sixth day of the sixth month of June, there was snow all over the sky, which we have never seen." ”
On the sixth day of the sixth month of June, everyone in the palace knew that it was Jiang Wu's birthday.
The princess took a sip of tea, slowly put down the tea bowl, and said lightly: "The mourning family is tired, you all retreat." ”
Jiang Sumo took the lead in standing up and saluted, "The concubine retires." ”
"The concubine retired."
Jiang Wu left Shoukang Palace, and before he could go far, he was called by Zhang Ruo.
"Mrs. Zhang, is there something wrong?" She asked softly.
"It's nothing, it's just that I haven't chatted with my sister for a long time, by the way, my sister has often gone out of the palace to visit Princess Shu recently, Princess Shu has a miscarriage, and her health is okay?" Zhang Ruo asked.
Jiang Wu bowed his head, "Mrs. Lao is worried, the princess is all right." ”
Zhang Ruo chuckled, "It's okay, hey," she sighed lightly, "This princess is also unlucky, she is pregnant, but in this difficult situation, my sister was also frightened that day, if my sister hadn't visited the princess that day, this would not have happened." ”
Zhang Ruo wore a mask of hypocrisy, and said things that sounded like concern, but in fact, she meant that she had brought disaster to He Baoqi.
"Thank you Madame for your concern, there are still some things in the concubine palace, so I left first." She turned to leave behind Jiang Sumo.
Jiang Sumo looked at Jiang Wu's distant back and sighed lightly, "This girl is also pitiful." ”
"Niangniang's heart is kind, she can't be pitiful, if she is really a demon star, the emperor still has to deal with it as soon as possible, otherwise, wouldn't it harm our Da Liang," Zhang Ruo said, "Queen Mother, what does the emperor think in his heart?" The matter of the demon star has been rumored for so long, and there has been no movement on the emperor's side, and there is no plan to deal with Jiang Wu. ”
Jiang Sumo smiled and shook his head, "The Sacred Heart is not something we can guess. ”
More than an hour after Jiang Wu and the others left Shoukang Palace, the princess's physical discomfort suddenly worsened, and she urgently sought out the imperial doctor to come and see.
Because of this, there are more and more discussions in the palace about Jiang Wu as a demon star.
However, despite this, there was no movement on Yun Rongjue's side, and everything was as usual.
Whenever Yun Rongjue came to the Spirit Dance Palace, he never mentioned the demon star, he didn't mention it, and Jiang Wu wouldn't deliberately mention it.
The days seem to be as usual, but a lot of things are happening, and they also reach Jiang Wu's ears.
The more complicated the affairs of the previous dynasty, the disaster in the south has not subsided for a long time, everything seems to have been piled up overnight, and everything is tricky, even the enemy army that invaded Daliang has been defeated several times.
The harem is also not peaceful, the queen has frequent headaches, the princess's jade body is also in violation, and even Yun Pei is seriously ill.
The government and the opposition are even more discussing the matter of the demon star, and there are waves everywhere.
"I didn't expect that this demon star is so powerful, and the harem of the troublesome front and back dynasties will not be able to live in peace." Zhang Ruo's words were gloated.
The princess was displeased to look at it. During this time, because Yun Rongjue was exempted, Jiang Wu did not come to Shoukang Palace to ask for peace. In the eyes of outsiders, Yun Rongjue is like this, for the sake of the princess's body, and it also invisibly makes people more convinced that Yun Rongjue is also like this because Jiang Wu is a demon star.
"There are a lot of things in the harem, and when has there been an Ansheng." The princess said lightly.
Although Concubine Wang's words are true, she can hear the maintenance of Jiang Wu.
"Yes." Zhang Ruo choked slightly.
Seeing this, Jiang Sumo smiled and said: "In the past two days, the concubine has seen that the concubine's face has improved a lot, and her spirit has improved a lot, which is gratifying." ”
"Yes, the concubine Niangniang was always uncomfortable a few days ago, these days, Mrs. Jiang didn't come to ask the concubine Niangniang to say goodbye, and the concubine's body has improved, there are some things, we really can't believe it, and I don't know, what the emperor is going to do with her demon star." Zhang Ruo said.
The princess's face sank.
Jiang Sumo sensed that something was wrong and motioned to Zhang Ruo to glance.
However, Zhang Ruo did not pay attention. Let's do it
"If you want the concubine to say, this demon star should be eliminated as soon as possible, otherwise in this palace, what a disaster it will bring to the people in the palace." Zhang Ruo continued.
The princess chuckled lightly and asked leisurely, "Then according to Mrs. Zhang's opinion, how to solve this demon star?" ”
Zhang Ruo smiled, "This demon star naturally has to be removed cleanly, and only by destroying it can everything be safe." ”
As soon as Zhang Ruo's words came out, the princess's face became more and more embarrassed.
"Mrs. Zhang has a lot of ideas, Mrs. means to kill Jiang Wu, Mrs. Zhang, you are so bold!" The princess suddenly scolded.
This voice frightened Zhang Ruo, "It's too ...... Concubine Niangniang. ”
"The concubine is angry, Mrs. Zhang, she didn't mean that, she ......"
Jiang Sumo opened his mouth to intercede for Zhang Ruo, but was stopped by the princess, "The queen doesn't need to say much, Mrs. Zhang is a concubine, and she is the head of all the concubines, she accidentally said something, Mrs. Jiang is the emperor's favorite concubine, and the emperor has not made up his mind, but your Mrs. Zhang solved it one by one, do you want to put Jiang Wu to death!" ”
The princess was angry, Zhang Ruo was so frightened that she hurriedly knelt down, "The concubine forgives the sins, the concubine ...... Concubines don't mean that. ”
"You're not? So what do you mean? Could it be that there was a problem with the ears of the mourning family just now? The princess asked.
How dare Zhang Ruo say yes, "It's not ......"
"It's not that there is a problem with the mourning family's ears, Mrs. just admits that what she just said is to put Jiang Wu to death."
"Concubine ......"
Zhang Ruo retreated for a while and said no, and he didn't say it either.
"Mrs. Zhang, as a concubine, accidentally spoke and spoke falsely, and was punished for kneeling in the outer palace road of Shoukang Palace for two hours!" The princess reprimanded.
Zhang Ruo's eyes widened, "The concubine is gracious, the concubine, the concubine knows that she is wrong." ”
Jiang Sumo swallowed his saliva and pulled out a touch of emotion, "Concubine Niangniang, I think Mrs. Zhang is unintentional, she also knows that she is wrong, can Concubine Niangniang be merciful and forgive her, and whether this punishment is heavier for kneeling for two hours." ”
The princess looked coldly, "The queen is the middle palace and has the responsibility of teaching the concubines, and the mourning family did not ask the queen for her failure to be lenient, or does the queen want to accept punishment like her?" ”
Jiang Sumo pursed his lips, and it was not good to interject more.
Zhang Ruo was punished to kneel on the palace road outside Shoukang Palace, and the palace people and concubines who came and went could see it. Zhang Ruo lowered his head, his face full of shame.
She is a noble lady, why should she be so humiliated!
Zhang Ruo's punishment for kneeling soon spread in the inner palace.
Jiang Wu was surprised when he learned about it. I didn't expect the princess to be so powerful.
As for Zhang Ruo's punishment for kneeling in the palace road, Yun Rongjue knew, but he didn't say anything, he acquiesced to the princess's approach.
Zhang Ruo knelt, the hours passed, her legs and knees were numb, and she didn't know how many tears of shame had fallen.
"Isn't it time yet?" She asked through gritted teeth.
Hexiang looked worried, "Master, it's almost there." ”
Zhang Ruo gritted her teeth, she had never felt that two hours was so long.
At this moment, suddenly.
A pair of slender hands reached out to her, and she looked up, "Emperor...... The Queen's Mother. ”
Jiang Sumo sighed lightly, "Get up, it's less than a quarter of an hour away, and the palace pleaded with the concubine, and she agreed." ”
Zhang Ruo choked slightly in his throat, stretched out his hand, and stood up with difficulty with the support of Hexiang, "Queen Xie." ”
Jiang Sumo looked at Zhang Ruo's embarrassed appearance, and sighed helplessly: "Let's go, go to the palace, and the palace will take some medicine and apply it to you." ”
Zhang Ruo followed to the Jiaofang Palace.
Jiang Sumo asked people to find clean clothes, and the palace maid waited for Zhang Ruo to finish bathing and freshening up.
"Go down, all of you." Jiang Sumo took the ointment handed by the palace maid, and then pulled the person down.
"The concubines don't dare to work with the queen's own hands." Seeing that Jiang Sumo wanted to take medicine for her, she hurriedly blocked the way.
Jiang Sumo brushed her hand away, "It's okay." ”
Zhang Ruo knelt for two hours, usually raised by Jin Zun Yugui, with delicate skin, where can he stand this, at this moment, his knees are red and swollen, bruised, and broken.
"This palace really cares for you, and the concubine's punishment for you is really heavy, and she doesn't care about your face at all, so you are also a lady of the first palace." Jiang Sumo said while taking medicine for Zhang Ruo.
Zhang Ruo's reddened eyes were filled with resentment and shame, "The concubine has never been humiliated like this. ”
"Don't say it's you, it's the palace, and I've never seen this, the concubine has always been partial to Jiang Wu, but I didn't expect that she would be biased to this point, sister, although your words were inappropriate before, but the truth is also true, who would have thought that the concubine would be so angry." Jiang Sumo said.
"What kind of ability does Jiang Wu have, not only is the emperor of Gou focused on her, but even the concubine is very special to her."
She ...... In the end, it's different from ours. Jiang Sumo said.
"Different? It's different, she's a demon star! Scourge the world, the emperor still hasn't disposed of her for so long! Zhang Ruo was annoyed.
"Shhh," Jiang Sumo shushed at Zhang Ruo, "In the end, the emperor hasn't ordered yet, although it is something that the whole palace knows about tacitly, but when it comes to this, you still have to be careful." ”
"What Guantianjian said has always been accurate, and the emperor still cares about the old feelings."
"Old love? Does the emperor really like her so much? ”
"Hey," Jiang Sumo sighed lightly, "Now that there are a lot of things in the harem, if there are some big things, such as the ones that the emperor cares about the most, the concubine, or something, I'm afraid, the emperor won't be able to deal with it when the time comes." ”
Zhang Ruo's eyes rolled.
Jiang Sumo turned to say, "But these are not something we can control, today's sister must remember the lesson, but don't provoke the princess again, the princess can give her sister such a humiliation today, if the sister repeatedly annoys the concubine, the emperor has always respected the concubine, if the concubine orders the emperor to deal with it, I'm afraid it will not be as simple as punishing kneeling, it is not easy for my sister to get to the position of lady, but you must not fall down, otherwise not only your sister, but the mother's family behind your sister will also be implicated." ”
Zhang Ruo pursed her lips tightly and clenched her hands tightly.
"Actually, our harem is also pure, the emperor's biological mother, Mrs. Chu, is imprisoned and can't manage the affairs of the harem, but I didn't expect that a concubine of the former emperor would come out horizontally, if there was no her, my sister would not need to be so committed."
Zhang Ruo listened to Jiang Sumo's words, and stood up after a while, "Concubine Queen Xie helped her today, it was not early, and the concubine retired first." ”
Jiang Sumo smiled and bowed, and asked Zhang Ruo to be sent out of the Jiaofang Palace.
————
Jiang Wu sat on the swing in the courtyard of the Spirit Dance Temple, swaying up and down. These days, the front and harem are full of turmoil, although she rarely goes out in this Spirit Dance Palace, but her ears have not been cleaned.
As soon as the demon star said it, it was endless. Now in this palace, she has been regarded as a demon star, an ominous person.
Although Yun Rongjue came over from time to time, every time she came, she could see the tiredness in his eyes.
He didn't say anything about it, and she didn't ask.
There are a lot of things in the front and back harem, and she doesn't want to worry him more.
"Xiao Wu, let's eat some pastries, newly made in the kitchen." Nanfu brought the pastry.
Jiang Wu twisted a piece and took a bite.
"Xiao Nan, do you believe in the celestial phenomena?" She couldn't help but ask.
Nanfu shook her head, "I don't know, I never understood this celestial phenomenon," she looked at Jiang Wu and knew what she was thinking, "Xiao Wu, don't think too much, how can the outside say that it's their business, you see, didn't the emperor say anything?" Since the emperor didn't say anything, I think this matter must not be said from outside. ”
Jiang Wu curled his lips and chuckled, but didn't say anything more.
She looked at one place intently.
She didn't believe in any of that, but ......
She also never imagined that the snow would reappear on June 6.
She has been confined in the palace with her mother since she was born, and is regarded as an ominous person for more than ten years. Later, when she came to Daliang, no one mentioned it anymore, and she almost thought that she had gotten rid of the name of an ominous person.
But I didn't expect it.
After going around for so long, he actually returned to the way he was when he was in the Nanjiang Palace.
"Ma'am."
Xiao Xinzi ran over, her face in a hurry.
"What's the matter?" Jiang Wu asked.
"Madam, I'm afraid Mrs. Chu won't be able to."
