Chapter 488: The First Provocation of Early Winter
That night, Princess Yanbei was released, and the entire palace didn't know what happened.
Overnight, the favored Liu Meiren suddenly fell out of favor completely, and the East Chambers became a sparsely populated place. If it was in the past, it would be very lively, and the king of Yanbei would like to send all the good things of Yanbei to Liu Rou, just hoping to make her laugh.
The king of Yanbei was busy with politics all day long, but he took care of Yanbei up and down in an orderly manner, and the people praised him. The soldiers and horses and some military advisors recruited before were even more pleased with their good vision and found a Ming Jun.
That batch of gunpowder still successfully entered Yanbei, and for King Yanbei, it was like a tiger with wings. It's just that now he has no intention of going to the capital to seize power with Xia Jingnian, which was provoked by Liu Rou, but now he sees her true face.
Suddenly falling into self-doubt and doubt, there is no doubt that Liu Rou is a scheming person. What was the purpose of her instigating herself to seize the imperial power at the beginning, but she used herself as a target. A Liu Rou whose heart is not on him, is it worth gambling with the safety of the people of Yanbei.
The more he thought about it, the more he had a headache, and he simply left it behind, and the batch of gunpowder could not be moved.
Yu Chi Zongyu and his entourage got lost in the Yanbei Desert, sweating profusely, smoking in their throats, and there was no drop of water in the water bladder.
"General Wei Chi, when do we have to go, if we continue like this, everyone will die of thirst." Lao Yang said worriedly.
Ruyan glanced at Yu Chi Zongyu, and seeing that he was worried, he couldn't help but say: "Everyone hold on for a while, and if you are walking, you may have water to drink." ”
The guards had heard this kind of words to quench their thirst countless times, and they sighed one after another, and walked forward listlessly.
Suddenly, Yu Chi Zongyu dismounted, the whole person lay on the ground, listened attentively, and when he looked up again, his face was already a little happy: "Camel team, obviously a caravan, we can follow them!" ”
Soon, as he expected, more than a dozen camels appeared in front of everyone.
The leader of the team saw that they were a little scared, and they wanted to turn around and return, but Lao Yang said loudly: "Don't be afraid, our group is the team that escorts Miss Fushang, unfortunately lost in this desert, I don't know where you know where there is water, there will be heavy thanks." ”
Hearing this, the leader breathed a sigh of relief, took the initiative to give them the water in the caravan to drink, and said with a smile to follow them, there will be water sources along the way.
After a long time, Heyang, Yu Chi Zongyu followed them into the Yanbei region, which was surrounded by the desert.
In a flash, it was early winter.
The courtyard is deep, and at the beginning of the month of Meng Chun, there are several eye-catching dead trees in front of the gate of Fengluan Palace. In the dormitory, red carved gold. What is burning in the air is water agarwood, scattered in the air, and Ji Qiang is very partial to this taste.
The harem was built at the back of the entire palace, and the front was used as a place for discussing politics and training soldiers. It is said that the harem is heavy in yin, yes and no, the palace is built on the yin side where the sun is scarce, whether it is a man or a woman, who can beat the weather and the sun. Jiujiu Chinese
Ji Qiang was wrapped in a velvet blanket, and the whole person was nested on the couch, which looked like a fluffy furball from a distance. The eunuch who came in looked at the ball on the couch, and there was no one waiting in the hall, so he was a little stunned, so he could only call tentatively: "Queen Mother?" ”
The eunuch's voice was not loud, and the hairball on the couch suddenly moved, revealing its head, "What's the matter with calling the palace?" What is this holding back for? ”
The little eunuch was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground, and replied hurriedly: "The emperor asked the servants to send you the clothes that were customized from Moxuan Pavilion for the winter and thickened, as well as those of the prince and the princess. ”
"Move in, let people come in and go out with curtains. It was cold outside, but it was finally a little warmer inside, so I didn't let the cold in. Ji Qiang wrapped her whole body in a thick velvet blanket again, hugged the two soup women in her arms, and looked out the window at the courtyard full of boxes full of clothes.
Outside the window, the snow was heavy, and the eunuch maid stepped on the snow, and the snow piled up was as high as an ankle, and the whole shoe sank into the snow. She looked interesting, but she didn't bother to go, so she asked everyone to go out to clear the snow and lay down in the house by herself.
No way, she really doesn't like winter, the cold wind can blow from the skin and flesh into the cracks of the bones, and there is no such blessing to absorb this winter snow.
The little eunuch wiped the hot sweat from his forehead, and the stove in the house burned like April and May in spring, and he wore a jacket outside, and after a while, he sweated hot. The silver silk charcoal in the entire palace was the first to be used by the queen mother, and he instructed the little eunuch to move things inside, while thinking about it, how cold is this queen mother?
He hadn't figured out what was right or wrong, and he didn't wait for the reward to be broken when he left, so he dared to ask the queen mother by the way. Ye Jieyu came in in a hurry, her steps were fast, like a woman practicing martial arts on the rivers and lakes, with snow on her shoes, and the snow melted the carpet under her feet when she came in, and she didn't even close the curtain on the door, and the cold wind poured into the house.
The eunuch only frowned, forgetting to bow his head and retreat. What's more, Ji Qiang, she is angry, if she wants to teach Ye Jieyu a lesson, she has to stretch her head and upper body out of the blanket, it's not even colder, and the more is worth the loss. When she thought about it like this, she didn't bother to teach Ye Jieyu a lesson in person, and first left the eunuch in charge of the Internal Affairs Office: "Father-in-law, wait, the palace still has something to tell you later." ”
Ye Jieyu looked at the boxes in the room and the silver silk carbon that was about to be piled up on the roof outside the house, and the anger rushed to her head, and Ji Qiang was still shrunk in the blanket, only showing her head to herself. The blanket is also made of white fox skin, there are very few white foxes, she has never seen one alive in her life, and the first time she saw it was covered by Ji Qiang.
She was furious, and she didn't care that there was anyone here, so she said in a weird way: "Yo Yo Yo, the queen should be really interested, the sister in the palace is hungry and cold, and the one is worse than the other, you are good, the warm one in this room is a spring flower." ”
She paused, and then said, "My sister is really envious, these custom-made thick clothes are piled up in boxes in Fengluan Palace. This silver silk carbon, it's hard to use it alone, sister, it's ......good for us to settle down," she glared at the eunuch in charge of the Internal Affairs Office who was bent not far from the curtain of the outer compartment.
"Let's do it, don't think about silver silk carbon, it's just ordinary charcoal, and you have to beg people to look at it." The eunuch in charge was so frightened by her words that his body trembled, and his body bent deeper.
Ji Qiang didn't bother to pay attention to her cynicism, and only asked what she wanted to know: "The concubines in the harem really don't have enough charcoal?" ”
"It's not, I'm afraid I don't know......"
I didn't bother to listen to it later, she had to look at this matter carefully, Ji Qiang thought in her heart.
Ye Jieyu looked at her and was angry, she actually rolled up her sleeves, and seemed to be going to have a big fight? !
