Chapter 171: No Leave
Xiao Lu was stopped by several palace maids, and gradually calmed down.
She nodded: "Let's go, go back to the Queen Mother, this time you must ask for an explanation." ”
Obviously, their palace banquet was prepared a long time ago, and many people know about using plum blossoms as the theme, but in order to ensure the freshness of plum blossoms, they decided to pick a few hours before the palace banquet began.
It's really all picked, and Xiao Lu turned around the entire plum garden three times, but didn't see a single plum blossom.
She has been following Huarong for so long, when has she ever been so angry.
The group returned to the Queen Mother's palace in a menacing manner, and Hua Rong was surprised when she saw Xiao Lu who had gone and returned: "Why did you come back so early?" ”
"Niangniang, you don't know how hateful that concubine is!" When Xiao Lu saw Hua Rong, her eyes turned red, and she told her what had happened before.
Hua Rong was also stunned for a while, she thought that Concubine Yue was using the phoenix seal in her own name, because she was afraid of confronting her, why is she so arrogant now?
"Can this be confirmed? Did the concubine do it? "Hua Rong is still the queen mother in the end, much calmer than Xiao Lu.
Xiao Lu nodded: "I have already asked the palace people on duty nearby, it was the Moon Concubine Niangniang, I heard that before she left, she also took away several hemp bags, which should contain plum blossoms." ”
"It's a great one." Hua Rong didn't get angry but laughed, that's good, if someone goes against her, she can be regarded as having fun in the harem.
Otherwise, it always feels like I'm playing alone, and it's not interesting.
"Let's use the previous alternative for the banquet, as for the moon concubine...... I'll call her over later, and I'll just teach her a lesson. The corner of Hua Rong's mouth lifted a cold smile.
Even if she says cruel words, her appearance is still amazingly beautiful, and she still wants to give everything for her.
"Yes." Xiao Lu answered, and also went below to order the palace people to rearrange the banquet venue.
Not long after Xiao Lu left, someone from the palace came to report: "Queen Mother, the people in the palace of Concubine Yue Niangniang ask to see you." ”
"It came quite quickly, the mourning family didn't want to see her, asked what was going on, and sent people away after the matter was finished." Hua Rong nodded and ordered directly.
What she wants to see is Concubine Yue, not a person in Concubine Yue's palace, otherwise as the Queen Mother, where is her majesty?
The palace man promised to go down, and stopped Takiyan at the door.
Takiyan knew that he was wrong, handed the brocade box containing peony flowers to the palace people, and left.
After all, it was their mother who was sorry for the Queen Mother first, and gave the gift first, and if the Queen Mother didn't like it, then she would talk about other things.
The brocade box was presented, and Hua Rong also nodded and motioned for the palace people to open it.
The palace man opened the brocade box, revealing the peony flower inside: "This is sent by the moon concubine, saying that this flower is called peony, which is the first of a hundred flowers, and it is considered an apology to the mother." ”
The jade bracelet in Hua Rong's hand was crushed by her, and the broken jade bracelet fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.
"How dare she!" Hua Rong almost roared, she got down from her position and walked straight outside.
But when she reached the gate of the palace, she was stopped by the guards again.
"Your Majesty has an order, the Queen Mother is not allowed to take half a step out of Fushou Palace this year, I hope the Queen Mother can be considerate of her subordinates." The guard said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Hua Rong scolded: "Get out, the mourning family must go out to meet that slut!" ”
In the next second, the spear was across Hua Rong's neck.
"The Queen Mother, please go back."
The chief guard ghostly came out in front of Hua Rong and saluted Hua Rong.
Hua Rong's fists were clenched tightly, and she couldn't even feel the pain of her long nails sinking into her palms.
Her hand clenched and released hard, and this was repeated several times, and blood was already dripping down.
Hua Rongshu let go of her hand and smiled weirdly: "It's always okay for the mourning family to make an order, right?" ”
"Of course, this is the right of the Queen Mother." Seeing that Hua Rong didn't mention leaving, the chief guard also breathed a sigh of relief.
If Hua Rong insisted on breaking in, they would not dare to do anything to Hua Rong, after all, one of the last wishes of the first emperor before his death was to serve Hua Rong well, not to let Hua Rong be wronged at all, let alone torture her, and let her enjoy her old age in peace.
The first emperor's thoughts about Hua Rong are in the eyes of everyone, and only Hua Rong himself may not know.
"Concubine Yue sealed her position yesterday, according to the rules, she should come to serve tea to the mourning family this morning, the mourning family waited for a day, why didn't she come?" Hua Rong thought of an idea after a while, and also asked the head of the guard.
The head of the guard lowered his head: "My subordinates don't know." ”
"That is, Concubine Yue forgot, the mourning family punished her for being grounded for three days, not allowed to go out of the Moon Palace for half a step, and the palace banquet and so on could not be participated in within three days, not too much, right?" Hua Rong asked again.
The chief guard still bowed his head: "Not too much. ”
"Then pass the order." After Hua Rong said this, she also brushed her sleeves and returned to the hall.
She is now trapped in Fushou Palace, and she is more tormented than the caged bird, especially in the face of Concubine Yue's provocation.
But it doesn't matter, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and she can get out here until tomorrow.
With the last wish of the first emperor, Yu Liyuan definitely didn't dare to hurt her, and now imprisoning her here is also in the name of her volunteering to guard the spirit of the first emperor.
From tomorrow onwards, Yu Liyuan will no longer be able to hinder himself.
Hua Rong took a deep breath, trying to calm her surging thoughts.
The palace man placed the brocade box next to her seat, the box was still open, and the remaining peonies inside were particularly dazzling.
This was specially planted there by Hua Rong before moving away from the Flower Storage Palace, because Shen Xingyue said that the weather here was too cold, and it was difficult for peonies to survive, so she deliberately let people leave a little hot spring to see if they could grow alive.
By the time she left, the flower had already produced tiny buds, and she was happier than anyone else.
But soon she was confined here, unable to leave, so she could only learn the news of this peony through Xiao Lu, listening to its petals blooming day by day, the kind of happiness and satisfaction that others could not reach.
is also because Xiao Lu often has to go over, there is nothing in the Flower Storage Palace, so he simply did not lock the door, which is convenient for Xiao Lu to check the situation of the peony flowers.
Who knew that this time it was also convenient for the thief to steal flowers.
Hua Rong just thought of this, and he wanted to kill everyone.
Even if it was Yu Liyuan's favorite concubine, she would never be soft.
Her eyes stayed on the peony flower, which had just been picked, and although it had been in bloom for several days, she still felt that it was much more beautiful than Xiao Lu had described.
The only regret is that it can't live anymore.
Beautiful but ephemeral.
