Chapter 61: Impatience
Lianzhi went to see Wen Yunxi, Wen Yunxi was bored, Lianzhi accompanied her to play a few games of chess, Wen Yunxi lost the board, and angrily threw down the chess pieces in his hand: "I won't play anymore." ”
"Why don't you play?"
"Why do you bully me like your brother? When I played with Brother Zhiyan, I never won once, why are you like that? ”
"If you want to win, you'll win this game."
Wen Yunxi knew that Lianzhi said this on purpose: "Forget it, if you let me, what's the difference between this and me looking for someone else?" But I kept losing, and I felt very uncomfortable. I still don't play anymore, so as not to be in a bad mood. ”
Lianzhi smiled: "You are the most sincere." But I see you've been in a panic lately, what's wrong? ”
At the mention of this matter, Wen Yunxi frowned: "It's not Wen Miqing's incident, it's actually just handled with care." You have been wronged like that, how can you forget it like this? ”
"I don't think I've been wronged, the most uncomfortable person now should be Wen Miqing. I heard that at the Lantern Festival banquet before, Wen Miqing was the most conspicuous person, and she didn't go to participate this year, I'm afraid she was angry, for fear that others would steal her limelight. ”
"She's like this, and she's still thinking about the limelight?"
"I heard that two days ago, she sent the palace maid to beg the emperor to let her participate in the Lantern Festival night banquet, but the palace maid was stopped by the queen and directly beaten to death by the whip before she could take a few steps. Since that day, no one has dared to communicate for Wen Miqing, do you think she is angry? ”
"I really don't understand what she's thinking."
"I've been in Xichu for half a year, and I haven't seen Concubine Rong, what kind of person is this Concubine Rong?"
"Do you know Concubine Rong's surname is Zhu?" Wen Yunxi asked, Lian Zhi shook his head: "Is there anything strange about this, I haven't heard of any high-ranking officials surnamed Zhu in the court." ”
Wen Yunxi beckoned to Lianzhi, signaling Lianzhi to come to her, Lianzhi leaned over, and Wen Yunxi whispered to her:
"I also heard the old lady in the palace mention this matter by chance, don't look at the current Xichu There are major families, as if each family is very powerful. In fact, more than ten years ago, there was a famous family composer in Xichu who was very powerful, but I don't know why it disappeared overnight. The Zhu family originally climbed to the Qu family and lived, and after the Qu family disappeared, the Zhu family was trembling, but after all, they did not escape the tragedy of annihilation, only Concubine Rong, who had already entered the harem, survived. When the Zhu family was destroyed, Concubine Rong had just given birth to Wen Miqing not long ago, probably frightened by this incident, and after entrusting Wen Miqing to the queen, she set up a Buddhist hall in her palace, chanting scriptures and reciting Buddha all day long, and closed the door. ”
"Where did you hear it, if you say half a word, even if you are a princess, you will be punished." Lianzhi sat back.
"I used to be playful, and I often ran around the palace, and once I ran into the cold palace and overheard it. Those things happened before I was born, and I don't know if it's true or not, and although I was young at that time, it was too mysterious, so I wrote it down, and if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have told anyone else in my life. ”
"Then you must not say these things to others in the future." Lian Zhi admonished, and Wen Yunxi nodded.
Seeing that it was not early, Lianzhi got up to say goodbye, Wen Yunxi did not leave her, and personally went out from her.
On the way back, Lianzhi's heart was heavy, and what Wen Yunxi said to her just now kept circling in her mind. In the end, it's just Wen Yunxi's words, and the people who are waiting in the cold palace are probably crazy, how true can those words be?
However, I don't know why, Lianzhi always has a different feeling about the Qu family, and his heart is as uncomfortable as if he is being held by something.
"Princess, be careful." Su Qing tugged at Lianzhi, Lianzhi stopped, she was thinking too much just now, she didn't notice that she almost bumped into someone, it was Wen Zhiyan.
"His Royal Highness." Lotus stops opening.
Wen Zhiyan smiled humbly: "What is Princess Wanyang thinking, she didn't even see this king." ”
"I almost bumped into the eldest prince, please forgive the eldest prince."
"You're from Yunxi, why don't you look good?"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Royal Highness, but this princess just has something on her mind, and it has nothing to do with Princess Yunxi."
"Princess Wanyang likes Yunxi very much, and Yunxi will be very happy if she knows that you protect her so much."
"I have never protected it, but I am telling the truth. It's the eldest prince who is very idle, I heard that Princess Miqing has been bored and panicked these days, the eldest prince has always had a good relationship with Princess Miqing, why don't you go to see Princess Miqing? The emperor ordered Princess Miqing to recuperate in the palace, and he didn't say that no one was allowed to visit! ”
Wen Zhiyan looked at Lianzhi, he had always felt that Lianzhi was smart, but such a smart person couldn't make a good choice: "Princess Wanyang just came to Xichu not long ago, and she also began to worry about us. ”
"It's been half a year since Princess Ben came to Xichu, and she doesn't see some things very clearly, but she's not blind either."
"The situation in Xichu is complicated, and the king was worried that Princess Wanyang would not be used to it, but now it seems that this king thinks too much, and the prince takes good care of Princess Wanyang."
Lian Zhi smiled slightly: "The eldest prince's words are wrong, this princess can live comfortably in Xichu, thanks to the queen's mother's care." It's a pity that the queen mother has been very busy recently, and the princess is afraid of delaying the queen mother, if His Royal Highness the eldest prince sees the queen mother, remember to bring a word of thanks for the princess. After all, you are mother and son, and there are a lot of opportunities to meet. ”
"Princess Wanyang's words seem to have another deep meaning."
"What this princess said is just ordinary words, but I'm afraid that the eldest prince is too heavy and thinks too much."
Lian Zhi didn't give an inch, Wen Zhiyan stared at her for a long time, and said, "It's really a pity." ”
"What's the pity?"
"You can have a better choice than the crown prince."
But this princess believes in fate even more, and her choice can't change anything, so it's better to go all the way to the end. Hongu doesn't like forks in the road, and if you take a wrong step, you may lose your direction, but if there is only one road, isn't there only one direction? ”
"It's really interesting to talk to Princess Wanyang. But there is only one way, aren't you afraid that there is an abyss ahead? ”
"Whether it's the abyss or the flat ground, it's the main path that my father will take, who knows if there will be another world under the abyss?"
"I hope Princess Wanyang can always be so confident."
Wen Zhiyan didn't stay any longer, and left directly after saying goodbye to Lianzhi.
Lian Zhi watched Wen Zhiyan leave, with a smile in his eyes. Wen Miqing had several accidents, although he was not given up by Emperor Chu, but after all, Wen Zhiyan, who had always been as stable as Mount Tai, couldn't sit still.
She is not afraid of Wen Zhiyan's movements, because only if he moves, she will have a chance to catch Wen Zhiyan's handle.
Wen Zhiyan came to Weiyang Palace by himself, and the queen was not surprised to see him: "You are here, the palace is preparing for dinner, you came by coincidence, so let's accompany the queen mother to dine." ”
Wen Zhiyan responded, and the two sat down to eat, looking at the table full of dishes, Wen Zhiyan didn't have any appetite.
"What's wrong with you today?" Even the queen found out that Wen Zhiyan was wrong.
Wen Zhiyan replied: "Erchen met Lin Wanyang on the way here. ”
"When you meet it, you meet it, are you still afraid that she won't make it?"
"This Lin Wanyang is by no means simple, and Erchen feels that leaving her by the prince's side is not a good thing after all."
"What do you want to do?" Luo Xuanran was a little strange.
"In the past few days, the prince and Lin Wanyang have been worried about the marriage of the prince and Lin Wanyang after the spring hunt, and this Lin Wanyang cannot be left to the prince."
"Of course this palace understands, so Su Xiran has already buried this chess piece, count the days, her illness should also be cured, the Lantern Festival night banquet must come, and when something happens, it is not up to you and me to decide."
"But there's another thing, is there really no problem with the woman you arranged?"
"Aren't you worried about the affairs of this palace? Don't think that only the virtuous concubine can use the beauty scheme, the palace can also do it, she can offer kites, and the palace can also offer others. Now that Iris Dai has no hope of regaining her favor, it is time for this palace to play. ”
"I heard that Wen Miqing almost sent someone to his father to intercede two days ago."
"Don't worry, at this time, this palace won't let Wen Miqing make another mistake."
At this upcoming Lantern Festival night banquet, everyone's thoughts that had been resting for nearly half a month revived again......
