Chapter 237: The Identity of a Man
The emperor's words made Wei Rui stunned for an instant, and she hesitated slightly before saying: "Didn't the emperor still praise Ziyan for this child, why don't you want it now?" ”
The emperor turned his head to look at her, his eyes were thoughtful, and he was silent for a moment before saying: "I finally know why Jingxing is so opposed to you entering the palace, you still don't know anything about the things in the palace." ”
Wei Rui heard that Emperor Qing's words were there, but he didn't understand it, but since the emperor had said this, it didn't make sense to break the casserole and ask in the end, since the emperor had already made a decision, it was better not to talk too much about many things.
"It's Wei Rui who is shallow, and I hope the emperor doesn't take it to heart." Wei Rui hurriedly replied, reading between the lines the caution he had just learned.
The emperor smiled and said, "By the way, I heard that those ladies seem to have complained to the queen, you go back to the queen's palace to reply, but be careful." ”
After saying that, he squinted his eyes and left with a grin, like that, how did he look like he was laughing at Wei Rui.
Wei Rui didn't expect those ladies to move so fast, he only sent things to Ziyan on the front foot, and the ladies on the back foot actually took a copy of her in front of the queen.
It's really annoying, what is the ability to learn children to sue when they are old?
That being said, how to deal with the queen really gave Wei Rui a little headache.
The queen originally had a great opinion of herself, and this time she was jointly signed by several ladies and participated in a book, but I was afraid that the queen would use the topic to play and would not easily spare herself.
When she arrived at the queen's palace, Wei Rui was very nervous, and she carefully handed the queen a list of her spouses, but was met with a cold eye from the queen.
"You're so daring! This palace asked you to chat with a few ladies to learn about the situation of their children, you actually spoke openly and secretly to sarcastically mock a few ladies, do you know how noble their identities are, and now this is deliberately embarrassing this palace, right? ”
Although she knew that the queen would be angry, Wei Rui felt a little shocked when she saw her lose her temper so much.
She didn't expect that she was just chatting with a few ladies casually, and it would become such a big thing when she arrived at the queen. But in front of the queen, even if it is reasonable, she has to give three points, so she hurriedly knelt down and confessed: "Queen Mother, it's not what you said, the folk girls are just chatting with a few ladies, and they didn't say anything excessive, presumably they were wrong." ”
"What? Do you mean that the palace has wronged you, or have a few ladies created something out of nothing? ”
Wei Rui: "......"
She once again realized the difficulty of life in the palace that Jingxing said, here it is also wrong for you to speak, it is also wrong not to speak, it is wrong to say too much, and it is even more wrong to say less. In short, as long as others are unhappy, whatever you say is wrong, Wei Rui pondered for a moment, decided not to say anything, and kept silent, anyway, no matter how you explain, she will also say that you are quibbling.
"Why don't you speak? Know you're wrong? The queen's tone was full of triumphant pride, her identity was originally destined for her not to lose, but Wei Rui didn't understand, why did she feel proud, what was there to be proud of? Bullying others and punishing others, is it something worth being happy and proud of for her?
"What did this palace ask you, did you know that it was wrong?" Wei Rui didn't answer for a long time, which made the queen's tone full of irritability, she shouted out such a sentence uncontrollably, Wei Rui woke up like a dream, and hurriedly said: "The people know that they are wrong, please punish the queen." ”
This is probably what the queen wants, and after Wei Rui said this, her face changed significantly, and she was a little vicious in her pride.
"Now that you know you're wrong, kneel outside. Ah Hong will look at you, don't be lazy, if this palace finds that you are lazy, see how this palace finds you to settle accounts! ”
After saying this, she stood up and was helped by the palace maid into the inner room to rest, and Ah Hong led Wei Rui to the corner and asked her not to disturb the kneeling of others as much as possible.
When the queen said the words "just kneel outside", Wei Rui suddenly felt desperate for a moment, and she even wanted to rush up and kick the queen in the face, and then take a few punches to let her know about the sinister nature of society.
But she calmed down for a moment and remembered that now is not the twenty-first century, in this era, she dares to go up and move the queen, but she is afraid that the emperor will not be able to keep her easily.
Kneeling there, Wei Rui was very eager to get the "easy kneeling" that Xiaoyanzi had in Huanzhu Gege, watching TV at that time, I only thought that Xiaoyanzi was quirky and really cute. Now that I empathize, I understand where it's cute, and it's obviously bitter.
She should have listened to Jingxing's words a long time ago, she shouldn't have been blindly optimistic, thinking too well about the palace, so that now the gap is too big, and she feels that she can't hold on.
Just when Wei Rui felt that she was about to lose her leg and was about to break, there was a sudden movement outside the door.
Soon, the attendant outside the door trotted in all the way in and reported: "Queen Mother, the second prince is here to invite An." "Slightly
Wei Rui overheard it, and was wondering, so she saw the queen hurriedly walk out of the inner room, tidy up her appearance, and then sit down in a dignified place.
When the second prince came in, he was still carrying Sun Ziyan behind him, and when Sun Ziyan entered the house, she happened to meet Wei Rui's eyes, and she seemed to be a little surprised. It's just that she has seen the world and has been in the palace all the year round, so she didn't show all her emotions when she saw Wei Rui, and it looked as if she didn't see Wei Rui and didn't know her.
Wei Rui couldn't help but sigh that these two children were really mature.
However, Wei Rui remembered that it seemed that the queen had not come out, why did the second prince ask the queen to say goodbye? Could it be that several princes need to greet the queen?
Wei Ruizheng was strange, but he heard the second prince say: "Erchen heard that the queen mother has always been difficult to sleep at night in recent days, so he sent someone to find some soothing incense, this soothing incense is not as good as the usual soothing incense, it is said that the spice has a flavor is Tianshan Snow Lotus, which is very sleep-friendly, and the queen mother can try to try." ”
As soon as the word "queen mother" came out, Wei Rui immediately felt scared, how could she still be the queen mother? Could it be that the second prince was born to the queen? Wei Rui's head was full of doubts.
Although I don't know if it's biological, it's obvious that the queen mother is much more polite and gentle to the second prince than Wei Rui. She first thanked the second prince for his dedication, and then asked someone to bring chairs for the two children and let the two children sit in the hall.
A few people chattered, she asked the second prince about his studies again, and by the way, she knocked Sun Ziyan, asking her to take care of the second prince more on weekdays, take good care of the second prince, don't feel that you are a girl, how honored it is to be a companion, girls are girls after all, don't have too many ideas...... and so on, Wei Rui just wanted to faint.
Sun Ziyan accepted all the rules and regulations, and had no intention of refuting at all, seeing that Wei Rui was so angry that she wanted to explode the queen's dog's head, but she could only think about it.
Finally a few people finished greeting, Wei Rui originally thought that the queen was chatting with a few people, and her attention was not here, so she could rest secretly for a while, but there was a Ah Hong next to the queen, her eyes, but they didn't leave her for a second, and kept staring at her, so that she couldn't slack off at all.
Watching the second prince and Sun Ziyan and the queen retire, when they were about to leave, Wei Rui even felt a little ridiculous, she was still talking and laughing with the two of them at that time, but now it became two people sitting on her knees, like a clown who made a mistake.
She didn't want to think about it, although she was wronged, although she was embarrassed, although her legs were painful, but this path was her own choice after all, and she had to go on no matter what, after all, the situation now did not allow her to quit.
Just when the two of them were about to go out of the gate, Wei Rui saw Sun Ziyan but suddenly stopped, she seemed to have something to say to the second prince, the two of them lowered their heads and whispered for a while, and finally Wei Rui saw the second prince go and return, and walked back.
When the queen saw the second prince go and return, she hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" Is there anything else you want to tell my mother? ”
The second prince nodded, and then said: "It's Miss Wei's business, it's such a queen mother, just now my father went to Erchen to test Kao Erchen's recent studies and homework, and when he went, he took Miss Wei with him." It's just that I don't know why Miss Wei came to the queen mother again, when we came here just now, we saw that the high prince next to my father was looking for her, I don't know if my father has something urgent. ”
"If it weren't for Fang Cai's Ziyan reminder, the son would have forgotten about it, I don't know if the queen mother would know that the father and emperor are looking for Miss Wei?"
After listening to the words of the second prince, the queen was obviously a little uneasy, she was silent for a while before she said: "The queen mother doesn't know about this, it's just that this Wei girl, who offended several ladies without asking, the queen mother will punish her like this in order to set rules for the palace people, since your father is looking for him, let her go." ”
The second prince nodded, and said: "Listen to my father's meaning, this Wei girl has just entered the palace, and when she needs someone to teach, the queen mother has done the right thing." ”
The queen smiled and said, "I only hope that your father and the emperor don't blame the queen mother." ”
The second prince said: "That's inevitable. ”
Wei Rui was helped out of the queen's palace, and the second prince lent her his sedan chair and let Ziyan ride with her.
Ziyan is a very mature girl, when she got into the sedan chair, she helped Wei Rui rub her legs, and then took out the medicinal wine from her sleeve and said to Wei Rui: "It hurts a little, bear with it." ”
Wei Rui clutched her clothes tightly, resisting and grateful.
This journey is not far or close, Wei Rui chatted with Ziyan all the way in order to divert his attention, and when it was almost there, Wei Rui finally asked, "Do you know what Kang Ying saw?" How could you be scared like that? ”
Ziyan said casually: "I don't know, I heard him say that it seems to be Uncle Jiang, and we don't understand why Uncle Jiang scared him like that, but when he asked again, he refused to say." ”
Wei Rui said thoughtfully: "Is it Uncle Jiang?" ”
Purple Smoke nodded.
