CHAPTER XIV
"Your mother is the most spiritual woman I have ever seen." The emperor walked into the room, his fingers caressed a table and a stool in the room, a grass and a tree, there was no master here, but it was still spotless, the emperor walked slowly, and said like a treasure: "She loves to laugh, and she also likes flowers and plants, and always loves to serve these green plants and flowers." When I first saw her, there was a gorgeous peony pinned to her sideburns. Such a big and bright red flower, but on her body, it is still good. can't even take away half of her beauty. ”
"Later, I took her into the palace, and I arranged this place according to her preferences as she loved." The emperor sat down by the potted plant carrying the longevity tree and muttered to himself: "At the beginning, she was curious about everything in the palace and liked flowers, so I found the most delicate flowers in the world. She loved the little bridge and the river, so I dug a pool of water behind her house. I decorate the tables, chairs, benches, poems, paintings and decorations in the house with her, and make this a paradise that belongs only to me and her. ”
Alain stood aside. There was no one else in the house. The emperor's eunuchs and entourage were all outside the house. It was getting dark, and the orange sunlight crept in through the crack in the window and shone on the portrait of the beauty on the wall.
"It's a pity that I ...... later," the emperor said this, suddenly stopped, and looked straight at the painting on the wall for a long time, and the sunset turned from orange to crimson, and slipped from the painting to Alain's feet, and the emperor spoke, and then said:
"She's weak, sick, and pregnant with you, so she won't drink medicine. I finally gave birth to you, but unfortunately my body was very empty, so I went. The emperor suddenly stood up, walked outside the house, and said as he walked: "So your body is also weak, and the queen mother asked for a master, so she will send you to the Bone Fu Temple to find the Bodhisattva's protection." ”
The emperor took Alan out of the house, and the eunuch guards outside the house saluted, and the emperor suddenly waved his hand a little impatiently: "It's not too early, let's go to the family banquet." ”
Alan sat obediently at the feet of the Queen Mother, looking at the gifts sent by the princes, princesses, and concubines he didn't know at all, and listening to them tell them how much they missed him. After listening to the greetings and watching the dancing, I finished the family banquet in a proper manner. Alain only felt that the flesh on his face was about to freeze with laughter. After eating this large family feast, the moon has risen to a high level. With the help of Songhe, Alain politely declined the Queen Mother's suggestion to stay overnight, and escaped out of the palace. It wasn't until he returned to his princess's mansion and retreated left and right that Alan fell generously on the bed and let out a long breath.
The candlelight flickered, and Alain lay on his side on the bed. Looking at the candles standing on the table, I thought carefully about what I saw and heard during the day.
The most surprising thing for Alain was the concubine. From the first time they met, Alain felt that the concubine seemed to have no one to care about everywhere. The emperor and queen have always been silent, and the queen mother directly interrupted her. It looks like it's a little scheming, and it's even a bit lacking in heart, and it's a big grin. But she is the imperial concubine second only to the queen, and Songhe named the enemy he had to be careful of.
But, the enemy? Alain still doesn't know what he's facing. What endangers yourself, is what. I don't even know why I have changed from the master's little apprentice to the daughter of the king of a country, and she is in danger, and there are people who want to kill her, harm her, and beat her. Alan tried his best to keep his eyes open, since Songhe and Master and Tuhe are in the same group, then they will definitely explain it to themselves, then they will definitely find a chance to meet them. Alan thought they would come at least one at night, but when he opened his eyes again, it was already dawn. In front of him, there is a familiar face.
