As soon as the general heard this, he knew that there was no time, and said: "Han'er, Daddy knows that it was the monarch who asked you to show your loyalty to see us off for the last time, and I can see you before I die, Daddy is very happy, and your mother will not blame you, as long as you and your brother can be well, we can rest assured." ”

Lord Hui replied silently: "Daddy, don't worry, my daughter will take care of my brother." ”

Then Lord Hui wiped his tears and said to Sang Zhu: "Let them come in, and go and bring the general's wife and the little general over, and put the wine and food I prepared for them." ”

Looking at these wines and dishes, Lord Hui poured a glass of wine for her father and younger brother, and seeing them fall on the table, Lord Hui sat motionless on the stool for a moment, and said hoarsely: "Let's go, it's time to give the monarch a return." ”

From the road to go back step by step, the mood has long been different, only two years old, the voice has brought a trace of vicissitudes, said: Sangzhu, except for Xiaoyi, I only have you. ”

Sang Zhu was also full of sadness, but as a first-class maid, she had long been accustomed to swallowing all her emotions and said, "Miss rest assured, no matter when, Sang Zhu will always be by Miss's side." ”

This sentence is so unfamiliar, Lord Hui remembered that many years ago, on the swing frame of the General's Mansion, thinking of the monarch who fell at a glance, he was full of expectations for life in the palace.

Because he was afraid that Sangzhu would not be able to follow him in the future, he asked Sangzhu who was standing behind him nervously: "Sangzhu, I will enter the palace tomorrow, you want to accompany me, right?" ”

Sang Zhu replied comfortingly: "Miss rest assured, no matter when, Sang Zhu will always be by Miss's side." ”

The lord of the Hui side was nostalgic, the mulberry bamboo at that time was very jumpy, thinking about something, he could see through it at a glance, and he had been in the palace for many years, just like a few lifetimes.

After this incident, I'm afraid it will only be more difficult in the future, things are people, Sangzhu is no longer the same as before, and so is himself, what remains unchanged is that there are still two people who depend on each other here.

In the Qianqing Palace, someone had already replied to the fact that Lord Hui had been alone in the prison for a while.

The monarch deliberately asked, "Is the matter done?" ”

Lord Hui did not hide that he had cried, and understood that these things had already reached the ears of the monarch, and replied honestly: "It has been done, but the lord of the minister talked to his father alone, and the lord also knew that this should not be, but after all, he is the father of the lord, and the lord wants to thank the lord for his nurturing grace and ask the monarch for forgiveness." After saying that, he knelt down.

It is also human nature for the monarch to think that if he is really ruthless and unrighteous, then he will not be able to look down on it, so it is inconvenient to blame, and said; "That's it, you get up."

Lord Hui did not get up and continued: "The lord has two things to ask for, please ask the monarch to be gracious. ”

Thinking that his big matter was solved, he was in a good mood, waved his hand, and said, "What's the matter?" You said. “

Lord Hui said in an orderly manner: "One is that a few days ago, Princess Wenjin sent medicinal materials to the minister, saying that it was to make amends, and the minister wanted to go to see her and explain it clearly, but at that time, the minister couldn't think about it for a while, and he felt ashamed of the monarch and not about the princess." "The second is that now the lord has no children and no daughters, and he is no longer worthy of the position of the side lord, and he doesn't want the monarch to be criticized for this matter, so he asks for a demote and asks the monarch for permission." After speaking, he slammed his head on the ground to show his sincerity.

The monarch thought that the matter that Lord Hui asked for was excusable, and agreed: "This is easy to say, Lonely, Jin'er is cowardly by nature, you can go and see her more." What about the second thing? ”

The tone of the lord of the side was even softer, which made people feel pity and said: "The second is that now the lord has no children and no daughters, and he is no longer worthy of the position of the side lord, and he doesn't want the monarch to be criticized for this matter, so he asks for a demote and asks the monarch for permission." After speaking, he slammed his head on the ground to show his sincerity.

The monarch looked at the plainly dressed woman in front of him, and remembered that when she had just entered the palace, although she had calculations, she still had a trace of friendship for her, and couldn't bear to say: "I'm afraid I have wronged you." ”

Lord Hui immediately took over the words and said softly: "As long as the monarch reads it, he will not be wronged." ”

When the monarch saw that she had made up her mind, he said: "Then demote the concubine, keep the title, or live in the Ziyun Pavilion, and I am afraid that I will go to someone else's pavilion and embarrass you." ”

Concubine Huigui replied obediently: "Thank you to the monarch for the concubine." Then he saluted and withdrew from the Qianqing Palace.

In the afternoon, Concubine Hui Gui came to visit Wen Jin, and happened to meet Wen Jin who woke up from a nap, and said with a smile: "It seems that I came at the right time, just in time for the princess to wake up from a nap." ”

As the saying goes, working towards the same goal is the fastest way to build friendship, and sure enough, Wen Jin's relationship with Concubine Hui is now the best in this palace.

Wen Jin looked at her with a smile on her face and knew that it was done, and also quipped: "I got up specifically for the concubine, if you come every day, I won't sleep." ”

Concubine Huigui nodded Wenjin's forehead, and said angrily: "Come and see you, you still say that I came late, and I have no conscience." ”

Wen Jin pretended to beg for mercy and said: "Okay, okay, don't be angry, concubine, let's go into the house and talk." ”

Yun Niang consciously closed the door.

It was Concubine Huigui who reined in and said seriously: "I will dissolve the medicinal use of fake death, and I have already given my brother a mandarin duck pot to drink, when can I go out?"

Wen Jin didn't have to think about it to know that Concubine Huigui was in a hurry, and he didn't beat around the bush and said: "I will let someone pick it up early tomorrow morning, and you will definitely let someone check it tonight, it is the nature of every monarch to be suspicious." ”

Concubine Hui Gui received a specific answer, her heart settled down a little, and she remembered the second thing for the purpose of her trip, and asked, "Can anyone you go out of the palace?" ”

Wen Jin didn't know what she wanted to do, and asked, "Yes, yes, what are you doing?" ”

Concubine Huigui did not hesitate, and said straightforwardly: "This seal is my father's token, there are five thousand soldiers and horses outside the palace that my father raised as a private soldier just in case, this seal is given to the princess, which is considered the sincerity of my Song family, and then there is a letter here I hope it can be sent to my younger brother Xiaoyi." ”

Wen Jin looked at the seal handed over and the sincerity on Concubine Huigui's face, and asked, "Is this what you mean or what the general means?" ”

Concubine Hui did not hide it, and said bluntly; "That's what my dad meant."

Wen Jin understood the importance of this seal, General Song understood her clumsiness and wanted to make a deal with her, using this seal in exchange for the safety of her concubine Baohui and Song Feiyi.

Wen Jin figured it out, so he accepted the seal and replied: "Since it is the general's intention, I should do my best." ”

Concubine Hui knew that Wen Jin also understood what Daddy meant, and when she heard this arrangement, she was vaguely worried about whether Wen Jin could understand, Daddy said that Princess Wen Jin was a smart person, and now it seems that she is indeed very smart.

After finishing the business, Concubine Huigui sighed while drinking tea: "It's better for you now, you used to be taciturn and didn't like to move around timidly, but Lord Rong is still a good thing with a bad heart." ”

When Wen Jin heard this, he became more and more confused about the original Wen Jin, but it seemed that he was about to catch something, but there was always a layer of fog that was not thorough, and it was certain that he was getting closer and closer to the truth, so his heart moved, and he asked casually: "Then it seems that the concubine has been paying attention to me for a long time." ”

Concubine Hui Gui thought for a while and said: "It's not very early, at that time, everyone knew that the monarch's women were no one as favored as your mother, and no one of the monarch's children was as favored as you, so I was very curious when I entered the palace, I didn't expect to eat a closed door for the first time, and I was quite angry, but I saw you a few times later, and I always felt silent and lonely." ”

Wen Jin smiled noncommittally and said deliberately: "It turns out that I am like this in your eyes, but I have never seen my mother-in-law, and others are afraid to mention my mother-in-law in front of me, what do you hear?" ”

Concubine Huigui didn't know whether to say it or not, thinking that Wen Jin had helped her, she said what she heard: "When I entered the palace, I accidentally heard two old grandmothers say one thing, that is, on the day your concubine died, the third crown prince's concubine Lan also died. ”

Wen Jin was slightly surprised, in order to maintain balance in the palace, it is not normal for two people to die on the same day, and asked, "What is the reason?" ”

Concubine Huigui pondered the sentence, and then said: "I also inquired later, and I found out that your mother's dystocia contained her hands and feet, so she was given to death, and all the officials in her mother's clan have lowered the three grades in a row, and they have not been reused so far, and the third prince has also been grounded. ”

Wen Jin thought in his heart and asked, "Isn't it my mother-in-law who has an enmity with her?" ”

Concubine Hui Gui said: "This is the strange place, it is said that the lord of the Lan side had a good relationship with your mother at that time, and they went in and out together, so they really knew people and didn't know their hearts." But it's also what sincerity the people in the palace can have. ”

Concubine Hui Gui said while feeling sad for the women in the palace, including herself, but for the monarch, she no longer expects anything, and is naturally more relieved.
