Chapter 118: The Cruel Truth
"It seems that King Ping's Mansion is really idle, and you can always see Princess Ping in the palace."
Pei Jingqiu helped Pei Lin and gave me a simple salute.
"The concubine was also summoned by the Queen Mother, so she entered the palace." Pei Jingqiu looked at my bulging belly and showed a strange smile, "Niangniang should pay more attention this month, the road is slippery in snowy weather, so it is better to do as little activity as possible." ”
"Thank you Princess Ping for your concern, it's just that the medical officer in the palace once told the palace to walk and exercise more, which is conducive to production." I responded with a smile and leaned over to Pei Lin, pointing at her abdomen. "On the contrary, Mrs. Pei this month, try to move around as little as possible, whether it is the palace or other concubines in this palace, they can hide in their respective palaces to recuperate this month, why did Mrs. Pei do the opposite? Isn't it that you have been deceived by some mistake? ”
Pei Lin glanced at her sister Pei Jingqiu, who was standing beside her, although she quickly turned around and retorted to me with the same hatred, "I only came out and walked around today." But you can still see the suspicion in her eyes.
Pei Jingqiu was not a fool, so he hurriedly spoke again and directed the fire towards me.
"The concubine remembered that at the beginning of the queen's happiness, she also went to the Nacuo tribe, when the boat was tired, but the tire was stable, which shows that a moderate amount of exercise is still very beneficial for the early stage."
I nodded and replied with a smile: "But to say, the palace was too careless at the beginning, which is why I later learned that I was pregnant with a child, why I hid in Jingtai Palace, and Xu didn't go out. ”
I turned my head with a smile, took Pei Lin's hand and said, "I am not as lucky as Mrs. Pei, I can know that there is joy at the first time, and I can be fully prepared." ”
Pei Lin looked at me, smiled back a little unfamiliarly, and then pulled out her hand.
"Niangniang, the concubine still has something to do, so she will retire first."
Pei Lin stretched out her hand, Pei Jingqiu on the side was stunned for a moment, Pei Lin turned around and urged, and then Pei Jingqiu came back to her senses.
"I don't know where Mrs. Pei is going? Arrange New Year's events? ”
"Now that the harem is almost inconvenient, the concubine has discussed with the Queen Mother, and it is best to find a convenient person to do such a busy thing in the New Year." Pei Lin glanced at Shufang Palace, and then asked me tentatively, "I don't know if Niangniang thinks it's feasible?" ”
I smiled faintly and glanced at Pei Jingqiu on the side, "This is a good idea, it should be Princess Ping's proposal, right?" ”
Pei Lin nodded, Pei Jingqiu's face on the side was a little uncomfortable, and she responded lightly: "The concubine just wants to share some of it for the Queen Mother, and she has no other intentions." ”
"It's best to be like what you said, remember that the palace reminded Princess Ping before that some things are better not to get too close, otherwise, it is very likely that you will pay for it."
"The concubine doesn't want anyone to threaten the concubine's most precious thing, otherwise, even if there is any price for the comeback, the concubine will definitely do whatever it takes."
Pei Lin looked at me and Pei Jingqiu with a puzzled expression, although she knew that I had some disagreements with Princess Ping, but she was still very strange why the two of us were so tense.
"There are still things to be busy in this palace, if you want to discuss something with Madame Zi, then you should go quickly, it's late, maybe Madame Zi will go out."
The two sisters of the Pei family saluted me again, and then went to Shufang Palace along the corridor.
"Niangniang, will Madame Purple take this errand?" Cui Yun asked curiously.
"If I were Ziyu, I would have readily refused it, but if it was Ziyu, it would be really hard to say."
As he was talking, Nagagawa ran along the corridor from a distance.
"Niangniang, Your Majesty is now in the imperial study to review the folds."
I nodded, "Is there anyone else?" ”
"Back to Niangniang's words, the slave just saw it, only His Majesty entered the imperial study alone, and did not see anyone else enter."
"Well, okay, then I'll go to the palace and discuss with Your Majesty, the New Year is coming, how to celebrate."
I took Cui Yun and Yu Mo, as well as Chang Chuan, along the corridor, in the direction of the imperial study.
Flying snow hit the cloister, and the stars sprinkled on the bluestone slabs in the cloister. Fortunately, the bluestone slab is carved with diamond patterns, so even if it gets wet, it won't feel slippery when walking.
This is also one of the reasons why I like to walk here, one is to breathe fresh air, and the other is to walk around the palace, which can be regarded as a popular heart.
"The pattern design of this bluestone pavement is really ingenious. It's beautiful and non-slip, and I don't know whose idea it was. ”
I sighed alone as I walked, and then Yu Mo laughed and chatted on the side: "Speaking of this bluestone slab, there is another allusion." ”
"Oh, let's hear it."
I asked with great interest, Yu Mo smiled: "There was no pattern on the bluestone slab here, when the young prince was running here, he accidentally fell to the ground, and a soft gold armor on his body was separated from the body, forming a large piece of diamond pattern, so the emperor thought of using the diamond pattern to carve the bluestone slab. One is anti-slip, and the other is revenge for His Royal Highness the Prince! ”
"It seems that the first emperor still loves the second prince." Cui Yun chimed in.
"The eldest prince, His Royal Highness King Ping!?" I was a little surprised, from beginning to end, I thought that the first emperor was partial to Qi Yan, and now it seems that the first emperor seems to cherish King Ping even more. If you are so small, you can get a priceless soft gold armor, and it is not as simple as paying attention to it.
"It is His Royal Highness King Ping, and it was also from that time that the emperor made the eldest prince King Ping, hoping that he can walk on the ground in the future and not suffer the slightest bump."
Yu Mo was idle talking about the past on the side, but I was more and more confused when I listened.
"King Ping, ha, the king of the world is also." I muttered silently, so it seems that if King Ping had not died in battle, this crescent moon might not have been Qi Yan's turn to sit.
I was still thinking nonsense, and Cui Yun reminded on the side: "Niangniang, the imperial study has arrived." ”
I raised my head, the plaque of the imperial study was hanging high under the eaves, and Ji Li was guarding at the door, and when he saw my sudden visit, he hurriedly walked down to greet me.
"The last general has seen the mother."
I clicked and motioned for him to get up.
"Xie Niangniang, Niangniang, Your Majesty and the national teacher have important matters to discuss, I'm afraid, it's not convenient to meet Niangniang for the time being."
I was stunned for a moment, but I didn't expect that I had just come to the imperial study and had eaten a closed door.
"It's okay, this palace just suddenly wants to see Your Majesty, since Your Majesty has something important to do, then this palace will come back later."
I turned around, grabbed Yu Mo's arm, turned back to Cuiyun and said, "Cuiyun, my throat in this palace is a little dry, you go to the kitchen and find some throat pear juice." ”
"Yes, sissy."
Cui Yun understood, turned around and went in the other direction, I took Yu Mo to walk back, and when I walked to the corner of the corridor, I found that after Ji Li chased Cui Yun, I said to Yu Mo: "The hand stove is cold, the palace is here to hide from the wind, you go and find someone to add some charcoal." ”
"Mother, it's better to ......"
"I want you to go, hurry up." I said to Changchuan, "You go with you!" ”
"Yes." Changchuan obediently pulled Yu Mo away. Seeing that there was no one at the door of the imperial study, I carefully turned back and leaned to the door to listen, only to hear a sentence suddenly coming from inside.
"Haha, if that's the case, then Da Zhou will be completely eaten away by us!"
