Phoenix seal
Qi Jin stood in front of me angrily.
I looked at the anger in his eyes and suddenly felt funny in my heart.
In fact, I laughed too.
He grabbed my arm and walked back, and I don't know where it came from, and I broke free.
"What the concubine wanted to see was the queen's mother, but she never thought that the emperor would come out first."
"What do you want to do?"
"Today's canonization ceremony, the concubine felt strange, why did the emperor not award the phoenix seal to the queen, after going back, I thought about it carefully, it turned out that this phoenix seal was in the palace of the concubine, so the concubine specially sent it to the queen."
"Go back."
"The concubine returned the phoenix seal to the queen, and she will naturally go back."
"Let's go back."
As he spoke, Qi Jin came to take my hand again, but this time I avoided it. Xi'er came with the phoenix seal, and Huan Qing, who had a red face and makeup, also came to the gate of Zhong Cui Palace at this time.
"Sister."
I saluted Huan Qing, bowed my head, and called:
"The concubine asks the queen mother to say goodbye, and the queen mother is a thousand years old."
"Get up."
Huan Qing stepped forward to help me up, and I easily held Huan Qing's hand:
"Today's canonization ceremony, the queen's mother is the world, but the only thing missing is the phoenix seal. The concubines came to bother them, because they wanted to present the phoenix seal with their own hands, wishing the emperor and the queen to be united forever and happy for a hundred years. ”
Xi'er stepped forward and presented a box of yellow brocade. I opened the box, and the turquoise phoenix seal inside was exceptionally clear and clear in the moonlight. Huan Qing looked at the phoenix seal in the box, raised his eyes to look at me, and then looked at Qi Jin who was standing opposite.
She didn't dare to take it.
Obviously, this phoenix seal was sent to Moju Garden by Qi Jin early, and now even if the phoenix seal is in front of her, without Qi Jin's nod, she can only watch and dare not accept it. Qi Jin came over and closed the lid, stuffed it back into Xi'er's arms, and said to Xi'er:
"The imperial concubine is drunk, Xi'er, you go back with the imperial concubine first."
I clenched the letter in my hand and smiled:
"I haven't drunk alcohol today, so why should I get drunk." I reached out and took the box in Xi'er's arms, and stuffed it into Huan Qing's arms:
"The phoenix seal is the queen's seal. The concubines congratulate the queen and her mother to the world and thousands of generations. ”
Qi Jin finally grabbed my arm, and at the same time, the letter in my hand also caught his eye. He took the letter and saw it clearly by the light of the moon:
The courtier's daughter Qi Jin, knowing that she is no longer compatible with Prince Duan, please contact the marriage contract and forget the prince!
He looked at the letter in disbelief, then looked me in the eye and asked word by word:
"Who gave it to you!"
Huan Qing saw that the situation was not right, and opened his mouth to persuade:
"The Emperor's ......"
Qi Jin opened his mouth to scold:
"Shut up." Then go ahead and ask me:
"Say, who gave it to you!"
I shook me vigorously by his shoulders, and when I looked at his angry eyes, my eyes were hot, and a tear fell:
"Did you write it?"
Qi Jin was at a loss, wiping the tears from the corners of my eyes and shaking her head all the time. I cried and laughed:
"Dare to do it, dare not admit it? He's your own brother. ”
Qi Jin didn't speak, in a panic, he only knew to hold me in his arms. Wang Xi said to Huan Qing behind him:
"Let's go back to the palace and rest first. The slave will take care of the long live master. ”
The gate of the Chung Cui Palace was closed from the inside. I reached out and patted Qi Jin's back, Qi Jin let me go, I held Qi Jin's face with both hands, looked at his reddened eyes, and raised the corners of my mouth slightly:
"It's my fault, I shouldn't have made you like me, if you didn't like me, you wouldn't have written this letter, without this letter, Qige wouldn't have left so early. It's my fault, Qijin. ”
I let go and turned to walk back. Qi Jin grabbed my wrist, and I pulled it out raw.
Just two steps away, Qi Jin asked in a low voice behind him:
"Are you still mine?"
I paused, raised my hand, pulled out the golden hairpin stuck in my head, and threw it on the ground.
"Give it back to you."
"I should have thought that you don't love me! I should have thought of it a long time ago. ”
I clenched the jewel around my neck, and Qi Jin behind me ran up and tore off the jewel around my neck.
Jade beads were scattered all over the place.
I looked at his scarlet eyes, at the tears that were dripping from him, forgetting the blood on his neck that had just been strangled when he tore off the string of beads, and raised my hand and took off the ring on my finger.
The ring with the texture of jade collided with the stone slab and made a crisp sound. The knuckle split in two and lay in the moonlight.
Qi Jin, if everything that exists is built on top of Qi Ge's despair, then I can't afford your love.
"The daughter of the guilty minister Nian Huan, thanks to the emperor's wrong love, she knows that she is not worthy of the position of the imperial concubine, please leave the palace, please ask the emperor for permission."
The words were loud, and the words smashed on Qi Jin's heart.
He turned his back and straightened his back.
"You have worshiped the royal family, in this life and this life, even if you die, you are still my person."
The back is lonely.
I wiped tears from the corners of my eyes and whispered:
"Qi Jin, from now on, I don't want to see you again."
Turning around, I heard him whisper behind him:
"I just wrote a letter, what heinous mistake did I make?"
Because of this letter, he despaired. Now, it's your turn to despair. ”
The Qianqing Palace was in shambles.
The emperor lost his soul all the way back from Zhongcui Palace, and when he returned to Qianqing Palace, he locked himself in the main hall alone, only knew how to drink, and even went to the early dynasty. Early in the morning, Prince Rong's mansion was surrounded by the Imperial Forest Army, Prince Rong was confined to his home by the emperor because of his disrespectful words, and he had not appeared in the court for many days. Prince Rong Fujin originally wanted to enter the palace to face the saint, but was stopped by the Imperial Forest Army, saying that it was the emperor's decree that the people of Prince Rong's mansion were not allowed to leave the palace during Prince Rong's detention, and those who violated the order were beheaded!
I came back from Zhongcui Palace before I could reach the Moju Garden. The imperial guards guarding the gate of Moju Garden carried me into the house. Xi'er probed my forehead and found that it was very hot, and it was rumored that Li Fu entered the palace that night. Sudden high fever and unconscious was strange, Li rechecked the pulse, thought about it carefully, and then diagnosed it again, and then wrote a prescription to grab the medicine.
Wang Xi knelt at the gate of the Qianqing Palace and shouted loudly:
"Your Majesty, Li Fu of the Tai Hospital asks to see you!"
No one in the Qianqing Palace responded. Wang Xi shouted over and over again:
"Your Majesty, Li Fu of the Tai Hospital asks to see you!"
As if annoyed by shouting, a weak response came from the Qianqing Palace:
"Get out."
When Wang Xi heard this, he immediately changed his sentence:
"Your Majesty, the imperial concubine is sick, and Lord Li has come to report her illness."
The door of the Qianqing Palace was opened from the inside. Qi Jin, who was dismantled from his head, appeared in front of him:
"What's wrong with her?"
Li Fu immediately kowtowed and replied:
"Congratulations to the emperor, the imperial concubine is happy."
The wine jug in Qi Jin's hand fell to the ground in response, and there were broken porcelain slags on the ground. Only then did Wang Xi notice that the emperor was barefoot.
"Kid."
Qi Jin muttered distractedly. Li Fu went on to say:
"Since last night, the imperial concubine has a high fever and is unconscious. Nowadays, even the decoction cannot be eaten. If this continues, I am afraid that the fetus in the womb will be difficult to preserve. The minister dared to ask the emperor, did the imperial concubine suffer any stimulation yesterday? ”
Qi Jin smiled distractedly, turned around, and stepped on the broken porcelain piece as soon as he raised his foot. Wang Xi exclaimed, but Qi Jin continued to walk inside like no one, the ground was full of blood, and Li Fu got up and followed when he saw this. Xu felt pain, Qi Jin sat on the ground, Wang Xi was busy fetching water to clean, and Li Fu knelt on the ground to medicine Qi Jin's feet.
"Does she know?"
Li Fu knew what Qi Jin was asking, and replied:
"The mother has been in a coma, and she doesn't know she has a child."
Qi Jin stopped talking, looking ahead with empty eyes. Li Fu took the medicine and came to see it again, Qi Jin had already closed his eyes and fell asleep against the pillar. He asked Wang Xi to light a furnace of soothing incense and left.
Xi'er, Cuixing, and Cuiyue took turns to go into battle and cool me down with a cold water handkerchief. The medicine fed to the mouth will still be spit out. Li Fu had no choice but to resign himself to fate.
Under the effect of soothing incense, Qi Jin slept very deeply. In my sleep, I had a dream, in which he stood in place, and I smiled and cut open my belly with a knife, took out a child from my belly, and then fell in a pool of blood with a pale face in my arms. He shouted and screamed heartbreakingly, but he couldn't make a sound or move. Wang Xi was guarding on the side, looking at the emperor's painful appearance in his sleep, he was anxious not only about how to be good, but also wiped the sweat beads on the emperor's forehead with a handkerchief over and over again, and the emperor suddenly woke up and opened his eyes:
"Jin'er, don't!"
Wang Xi hurriedly came up:
"Your Majesty, the imperial concubine is in Moju Garden. Just now, the guards of Mo Juyuan came to report that Niangniang was still asleep and was fine. ”
"Where's the kid?"
"Imperial Doctor Li is still trying to find a way to feed the mother."
Qi Jin breathed a sigh of relief. But he was only relieved, and Qi Jin was about to get out of bed and prepare to put on his shoes:
"Swing."
Wang Xi was stunned for a moment and asked:
"Where?"
"Mo Ju Yuan."
"But last night, didn't the imperial concubine say ......"
Qi Jin closed his eyes and continued to put on his shoes:
"She said she didn't want to see me again, but I didn't say I shouldn't see her again."
After putting on the shoes, he just stood still, and a tingling pain in the soles of his feet made Qi Jin frown. The wound scratched by the porcelain piece hurt the heart.
"The minion has you in her arms."
"Have you picked up all the jewels and jades at the gate of Zhong Cui Palace?"
"I picked it up, and the minions wiped it clean one by one and put it in the box. Bring it to the mother together at this time? ”
"No, I'll bring it later."
"Wow."
Early in the morning of the second day of the wedding, only Huan Qing appeared in Kunning Palace to greet the Queen Mother.
Last night, the imperial concubine came to send the phoenix seal, and the grandmothers had already told the queen mother. The Queen Mother took Huan Qing's hand and patted it again:
Originally, the mourning family was worried that the phoenix seal would not reach the queen's hands for a while, but now that it is okay, she sent the phoenix seal herself. Next, the mourning family only hopes that the queen can give birth to a son-in-law for the emperor and inherit the throne in the future. ”
Huan Qing smiled peacefully, but he was thinking in his heart, no matter how he looked at it last night, it felt like the imperial concubine was having a temper with the emperor, and because of her anger, she sent the phoenix seal to herself. And later, after the prince persuaded himself to return to the palace, the two of them talked something outside the palace gate, and heard the report early this morning that the emperor locked himself in the Qianqing Palace, and he did not go to the early court. The two of them must have had an awkward relationship.
Huan Qing asked for peace and left. Seeing the queen leave, the queen mother said to the grandmother beside her:
"Go and check, what did the imperial concubine and the emperor say last night. After drinking all night, I didn't even go to the morning court. ”
"Queen Mother, last night the slave maid was guarding at the gate of Zhongcui Palace, and the imperial concubine seemed to have a letter in her hand when she came."
"Letter?"
"Yes, it's a letter."
"What is written in the letter?"
"The slave doesn't know this. By the way, there is one more thing early this morning, the prince went to Prince Rong's mansion with the emperor's holy decree, and Prince Rong is staying in Zongren's mansion at this time. ”
"Prince Rong. Could it be that this matter has something to do with him? ”
"Li Fu from the Tai Hospital went to Moju Garden last night, and went to Qianqing Palace early this morning, it is rumored that the imperial concubine has a high fever since last night, and the medicine stone does not enter."
"Something must have happened, these three people. Go to the Zongren Mansion, and the mourning family should ask Prince Rong in person. ”
