Chapter 395: The Emperor decides
At that time, he never refused to go to Fengqi Palace, so he never knew how her amazing dance was.
He suddenly thought of this, and only felt that his heart was empty, and even he himself did not understand why the woman he had hated so much in the past was now more and more difficult for him to let go.
The sheng flute gradually stopped, Xu Hanyun's sleeves slowly fell, she slightly curtled and waited for Beitang Jinyu to speak, and the concubine on the side sneered and said: "I thought that this dancing girl could make this amazing dance more amazing, but now it seems that it is nothing more than that." ”
Beitang Jinyu looked at it coldly, the concubine suddenly didn't dare to speak, lowered her eyelashes with some trepidation, he looked at Xu Hanyun and said, "Get up, go back and rest." ”
Xu Hanyun hurriedly thanked her and turned to retreat, and glanced at Xiao Ruyan when she passed by, and only the two of them could understand the meaning in her eyes.
"Your Majesty, this dancing girl seems to have good qualifications, if the emperor likes it, it is better to keep her by his side." Liu Wu'er looked gentle, and her words were very generous.
Concubine Li smiled: "Sister Zhen Concubine really lives up to the name of this gentle and virtuous lady, if that dancing girl enters the palace to share her sister's favor......" Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Liu Xu'er, she said: "Sister Li Concubine, the concubine is just a casual mention, where the dancing girl goes, naturally it is up to the emperor to decide." ”
Beitang Jinyu glanced at Gui Xi: "Pass the edict, let her come to Zichen Hall at night." With that, he got up and left, and the concubines hurriedly got up to see each other off.
"This flower is almost appreciated, the wind is rising, and the mourning family is lacking." The Empress Dowager got up, supported by the palace maid and went back, passing by Liu Wu'er, she said: "Concubine Zhen should also go back and rest, but don't rest for too long." ”
She had something to say, and Liu Yuer naturally heard it, this dancer who came out of the sky made Beitang Jinyu so attentive, and an imperfect dance actually made her lucky, and the Queen Mother obviously let herself fight back.
The concubines in the imperial garden were almost scattered, and only Xiao Ruyan, Concubine Li and Liu Wu'er were left behind, Xiao Ruyan slowly walked in front of Liu Wu'er, and said provocatively: "Everyone says that the concubines in the harem are very gracious, and it seems that this is just the case today." ”
"Xiao Guifei is just fifty steps and a hundred steps of laughter." Liu Yu'er smiled, got up and wanted to leave but was blocked by Xiao Ruyan, she frowned and said, "Concubine Xiao, the concubine is unwell and wants to go back to the palace to rest." ”
"What? Concubine Fang Caizhen's sister looks fine, but now a dancing girl makes her sister uncomfortable? Concubine Li laughed, shook her head and sighed, and said, "That dancing girl looks very similar to Concubine Zhen's sister, but her sister lacks a little aura, but the emperor likes it very much." ”
The hand in Liu Xu'er's sleeve was clenched into a fist, she tried her best to hide her emotions, and said indifferently: "Sister Li Concubine also said that she is just a dancing girl, it is not worth mentioning." ”
"Concubine Zhen, this palace has long said that I have a way to make you favored, and naturally there is a way to make you fall out of favor, a woman with outstanding looks and talent like this grabs a handful, Concubine Zhen should be good at herself, don't forget your identity."
"Concubine Xiao, you used me to deal with Gao Weihu in the past, and now you use that dancing girl to deal with me, if you really have the ability to be favored, why do you need to fake your hands to others." Her smile was mocking: "In the end, Concubine Xiao is nothing more than that." ”
"Since it's here,
Let's start jumping. Beitang Jinyu sat at the desk and didn't look at her, Xu Hanyun bit her lip and whispered: "I don't know what kind of dance the emperor wants to see the slave dance?" ”
"Just the frightening one." Beitang Jinyu put down the ink pen in her hand, and saw Xu Hanyun's slowly dancing figure, she danced very slowly, and every dance and movement were tender, and it was still the red dress that added a little softness against the background of the candlelight, and the dancing figure was also beautiful reflected on the window screen.
Xu Hanyun was still a little nervous in her heart, she felt that Beitang Jinyu's eyes fell on her, and she wanted to show her soft side more and more, but she had only learned this dance for a few days after all, and she was still very rusty with the movements of the whirling dance, and her center of gravity was unstable before she turned around twice, she tripped over the skirt and fell to the ground a little embarrassed, and her face suddenly showed a little pain.
"The emperor forgives the sins, the emperor forgives the sins......" Xu Hanyun hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy in panic, her body trembling slightly.
Beitang Jinyu frowned slightly, raised his voice a little and called: "Guixi." ”
Xu Hanyun thought that the emperor was going to dispose of herself, and said with horror in her eyes: "Your Majesty, the slave knows that she is wrong, please forgive the slave and the maid......"
Gui Xi quickly pushed the door in, and when he saw Xu Hanyun's appearance, he probably guessed a few points, and respectfully walked to Beitang Jinyu's side and said, "Your Majesty." ”
"Go get a doctor." As soon as Beitang Jinyu said this, both of them were a little surprised, Beitang Jinyu hurriedly nodded and went out to call the imperial doctor, Xu Hanyun slowly raised her eyes and looked at Beitang Jinyu, and said with a little disbelief: "Your Majesty...... Doesn't the emperor want to dispose of slaves and maids? ”
"How many days have you been studying this amazing dance?" Beitang Jinyu didn't mean to blame her, but her tone was still cold.
Xu Hanyun's eyes flickered with a little hesitation, Beitang Jinyu looked at the answer waiting for her quietly, he was clearly not angry, but his momentum of not being angry made Xu Hanyun tremble involuntarily, and she replied in a low voice: "Three...... Three days. ”
"It was Concubine Xiao Guifei who asked you to practice this dance, right? In order to be able to be in the limelight at today's Hundred Flowers Banquet? Beitang Jinyu heard it lightly, picked up the recital on the side and looked at it.
Xu Hanyun hesitated for a moment and replied, "Yes...... It was the slave maid found by Concubine Xiao Guifei, and told the slave maid that she would be able to see the emperor if she practiced this dance. ”
As soon as she said this, Xiao Chu's face turned pale, and his eyes were complicated, and he said softly: "Once upon a time, there was a woman like you, who thought that she would be able to see me after practicing this dance. ”
Xu Hanyun felt a little strange when she heard Beitang Jinyu's words, and dared to raise her eyes to see what he was looking at, her expression seemed to be a little trance, and she asked softly, "That woman...... Is it Concubine Xiao? ”
Beitang Jinyu restrained the emotion in her eyes and replied, "She's gone." ”
"Gone?" Xu Hanyun didn't understand Beitang Jinyu's words for a while, and Gui Xi outside the hall had already come with the imperial doctor.
"See the emperor." The imperial doctor held the medicine box in his hand and said respectfully, Beitang Jinyu waved his hand and said, "She seems to have a sprain, you can show her." ”
Xu Hanyun sat down on the side and asked the imperial doctor to check the injury for herself, her eyes looked at Beitang Jinyu from time to time with hidden affection, and when she saw that he actually asked the imperial doctor to check the injury for herself, she was suddenly full of sweetness.
"Your Majesty, this girl's injury is not serious, just give her some ointment to apply, but she may not be able to dance for half a month." The Imperial Doctor said, Xu Hanyun asked the Imperial Physician with a somewhat pale face: "Imperial Doctor, half a month is too long, is there a better way to do it faster?" ”
"Girl, this sprained foot still needs to be cultivated well, otherwise it will affect dancing in the future." The imperial physician advised, and Beitang Jinyu waved his hand to signal the imperial physician to go down, and there were suddenly only two people left in the hall.
Xu Hanyun walked to Beitang Jinyu and knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please ask the emperor to be lenient, the slave will definitely learn this amazing dance." ”
"No need." Beitang Jinyu looked at her and said, "Tomorrow, I will issue a decree to crown you as a concubine, and the canonization ceremony will be carried out in seven days." ”
Xu Hanyun raised her eyes full of disbelief, she was a little excited and didn't know what to say, and she slowed down for a long time before saying, "Thank you, slave, Your Majesty." ”
Beitang Jinyu's eyes were still light, and seeing her so happy and excited, he asked in a low voice, "Do you know, why did I canonize you?" ”
"Slave maid...... The slave doesn't know. Xu Hanyun shook her head blankly, but the joy in her eyes was still clearly visible.
Beitang Jinyu put down the fold in his hand, opened a brocade box and took out a delicate glass white hosta, he gently stroked it and said: "Xiao Guifei saw that you looked a little like a concubine, and taught you to dance that amazing dance to please me, she just wanted to suppress the concubine with you, you just wanted to honor the throne, and I will fulfill you." ”
He had already seen the matter of the harem clearly, and he knew that Xu Hanyun was just a tool for people to use.
"Your Majesty...... Slaves and maids do not seek glory and wealth, as long as they can be by the emperor's side, they will be satisfied. Xu Hanyun said, there was a bit of sincerity in his tone, Beitang Jinyu looked at him and said, "You stay here tonight, others ask, you know how to answer." ”
With that, Beitang Jinyu went out.
On the second day, the news spread, Xu Hanyun stayed in Zichen Hall for one night, and seven days later, she was to be canonized as Xu Concubine and given to live in Qingyue Palace.
The emperor felt sorry for her last night and hurt her foot for dancing, and specially gave her a sedan chair, she was served wherever she went, and it was really beautiful.
But only Xu Hanyun himself knows that this endless scenery is not because of Beitang Jinyu's favor, but just the fulfillment of the word thin.
She finally put on a brocade dress and could accompany Beitang Jinyu every day, but she couldn't be happy no matter what.
Last night, she was the only one in Zichen Palace.
In Concubine Xiao's bedroom, Xiao Ruyan was lying lazily on the couch, and Xu Hanyun gently beat her legs beside her.
"Now that you are a concubine, let the next person come to these jobs." Xiao Ruyan supported her head with one hand, and her long sleeves slipped down to reveal a white arm, and the other hand gently fanned the delicate small fan, with a lazy and charming posture.
"No matter what the status of the slave is, they all respect the mother." Xu Hanyun lowered her eyebrows and looked very respectful, Xiao Ruyan gently picked up her chin with a fan, looked at her face, and said with some satisfaction: "Your face is your good fortune." ”
"Niangniang really thinks that the emperor sealed the slave because of the appearance of the slave?" Xu Hanyun looked at Xiao Ruyan and asked softly.
Xiao Ruyan continued to fan the fan, and said leisurely: "Lust is also the nature of men." ”
Xu Hanyun lowered her eyes and still gently pounded her legs for Xiao Ruyan, and sadness flashed in her eyes.
"Since the emperor values you so much, you should also take advantage of the opportunity, but don't forget what the palace told you." Xiao Ruyan said slowly, and Xu Hanyun nodded in response.
The green smoke of the incense burner on the side slowly rose, but the faint smell was surprisingly good, Xiao Ruyan closed his eyes and smiled a little proudly on his lips.
Different from the quiet and peaceful here, there is a completely different atmosphere in the Yiyue Palace on the side, Liu Wu'er brushed the tea cup on the ground, and said with a little anger: "The emperor actually canonized her as Xu Concubine, she is just a lowly dancing girl?" Now you're on an equal footing with me! ”
