Chapter 31: Jingyun's thoughts

Jing Yun followed the emperor out of the palace and left everyone far behind.

The closer he got to Langhuan Pavilion, the more nervous Jing Yun's heart became, he relied on years of vocational training to have that quiet concentration.

The emperor was in a good mood, his face was full of youthful energy, Jing Yun looked at the emperor's face, and suddenly his heart was sour.

Jing Yun can always remember that in his twenty years of eunuch career, only Hengying had undeserved desires.

One wrong move, one wrong step, and now every step is extremely difficult.

When you are in the palace, you should be impartial and faithful.

But how can a man control his heart at all times?

Even a eunuch who is accustomed to seeing life and death in the palace can't.

I remember that year, Heng Ying was only thirteen years old, and he entered the palace for the first time to meet the queen.

At that time, the queen's biological son was not sick, and everyone was worried about letting her daughter of the right age enter the palace for an audience. If you can get the queen's blue eyes and marry the third son of the emperor as a princess, then the entire empire will be taken under the feather in the future.

Who doesn't know that the third son of the emperor, as a descendant, will definitely inherit the throne.

That year, the third son of the emperor, Ji Fanhong, was just fifteen years old, and he was already tall and heroic, which aroused the infinite admiration of the girls in Beijing.

Jing Yun was originally a eunuch in the case, and he didn't see the queen much.

On that day, it happened that Emperor An Lie was in a good mood and said that he was going to see Empress Jiang, and asked Jingyun to go over with a scroll of Xizhou Island that was paid tribute by the magistrate.

As soon as I walked into the Bixiao Palace, where Queen Jiang lived, I saw a girl in a goose yellow shirt standing there, as if she didn't stir up a little dust, and her heart was tightly snatched away before she could see her face clearly.

After coming in and saluting, Jingyun stood aside.

I only heard the queen say slowly: "Tell Your Majesty your name." ”

The girl in the goose yellow shirt raised her head and replied with a smile: "Jiang Hengying, my father hopes that I will be like Du Heng in the mountains, like jade like Ying." ”

The queen's gentle smile bloomed in the hall, and Hengying's face was also full of joy.

Emperor An Lie stroked his palms and laughed on the side, "This is your niece Hengying, the queen, you are satisfied, you don't have to laugh like this." ”

Looking at the crimson girl on her face, Jing Yun knew that this was his calamity, he didn't dare to look at it, but he couldn't help but want to see it.

It wasn't until Emperor An Lie called him twice in a row that he came back to his senses.

He hurriedly picked up the scroll, and the maid beside the queen accepted the colored ink, and waited for the queen to say a few gossips to Emperor An Lie before slowly withdrawing.

Emperor An Lie was very happy on this day, and exceptionally summoned a small editor from the Hanlin Academy.

Emperor An Lie has always hated sour Confucianism, and this summons made the Hanlin Academy a little confused. The emperor personally comforted him with gentle words, and also rewarded Yuzhou with new tea this spring.

Within a few days, it spread all over the palace, saying that the daughter of Jiang Chongyi, the editor of the Hanlin Academy, was favored by the queen, and she would be married to the third prince Ji Fanhong after the marriage.

Everyone envies this young lady of the Jiang family, she is really blessed to be able to marry the third prince. Even the poverty of the Hanlin Academy, it must also be developed.

When Jing Yun heard this, her heart was unspeakably sad, knowing that marrying the third prince was the dream of countless girls, and probably, she was also very happy.

After that, Heng Ying often went to the palace to meet her, and Jing Yun often changed errands, and Hou waited for her on the palace road.

If the palace maid who guided her was a palace maid that Jing Yun was familiar with, he would get closer, sometimes walking with him for a while.

After a long time, Heng Ying also noticed that this eunuch was not the little yellow door guided by the palace, but the celebrity of Emperor Anlie's imperial study.

Sometimes, I would say a few words to him.

Jingyun noticed that Heng Ying was not full of happiness because she had a marriage contract with the third prince, on the contrary, she was always worried and didn't care about the disturbances in the palace.

When she entered the palace, she only gave the queen a regular greeting, sending some homely objects, her mother's embroidery, her father's hand-copied poetry collection, and so on.

She didn't even hide this unhappy and unexpectant look, and even the third prince slowly noticed it, clamoring for a public selection of concubines.

Once seeing that there was no one around, Jing Yun asked her, "Everyone is looking forward to marrying the handsome third prince, why are you unhappy?" ”

Heng Ying cupped her cheeks and thought for a while, "I don't have to answer you, but I do want to find someone to talk to." ”

Heng Ying's words made Jing Yun stunned, he didn't expect Heng Ying to really talk to him.

"Oh, am I the one to be trusted?" Jing Yun's heart suddenly throbbed, she actually believed him.

"It's not credible, but you are the red eunuch of the imperial study, so you naturally know how to do everything.

And, you like me. ”

Heng Ying's eyes were clear, and he didn't avoid it at all, but he startled Jing Yun.

"Miss Jiang laughed, I'm just a eunuch."

Jing Yun was a little embarrassed, a little more embarrassed than when he first came out of the school and couldn't write a note Chen.

Hengying's expression returned to melancholy, after all, she was still a half-grown child, and even if her mind was dexterous, she couldn't hide those yearning for love.

"Although my father is also surnamed Jiang, he is not from the same clan as the queen. Not to mention, can I get the protection of the queen.

Even the queen mother herself is not more than Erer in the palace.

In the deep palace, how can there be affection? ”

Jing Yun unconsciously covered her mouth, "I can't say this, the middle palace lady can't allow us to talk about it." ”

Heng Ying also consciously lost his words, lowered his voice and said: "What Heng Ying wants, but the world is clear, and there is a heart to accompany him, not any glory and wealth."

Father-in-law Jingyun, do you think the third prince is? ”

Jingyun waved his hand, "Besides, if I have any strength, I will help you." ”

Later, the third prince died suddenly, and Hengying got married in a hurry, which was like a dream.

Until the year before last, they met again in Ganquan Palace, originally thought that they would never see each other again in this life, but when the war was in chaos, they were pushed by the hand of fate and entangled in one place.

The new emperor was upset at that time, and he was very puzzled when he saw Hengying worshipping the Buddha.

I don't know what Heng Ying said, the two of them retreated from everyone, and even Concubine Yu who was following was sent out.

talked a lot about the kung fu of sticking incense, if it weren't for General Ruoshui's sudden arrival, Concubine Yu would have lost her temper.

Jing Yun didn't care about the old days, and saw that Hengying had been respected as a guest by the new emperor.

"It doesn't matter if she's okay, anything goes."

Jing Yun patted his chest, unable to hide his panic, and it happened that Heng Ying's gaze came over, and when he smiled, he fell down again.

At such a panicked moment, Heng Ying was still so calm, such a wonderful person, why did he happen to be in Ganquan Palace?

Afterwards, he thought and thought, but he couldn't think of an answer.

Didn't she say where the affection in the court came from, why did she come to drip this troubled water again? Does she want a clear world so much?
