Chapter 63: Jun En
Hongli was wearing a black fox fur end cover, Wu Shulai stepped forward to untie the golden dragon spike, revealing the blue river silk five-clawed colorful cloud embroidered golden dragon robe, he walked lightly, straight to the east house. Hai Changzai saw that the emperor's face was gloomy, the corners of his lips were pursed, and he suddenly felt that his breath was unbearable, and he bent his knees and said cautiously: "The emperor is blessed with gold." ”
The emperor didn't look at her, but with a hum, he sat down on the kang.
The palace people who were waiting below knew that the emperor was angry, so they lowered their eyebrows and lowered their eyes in fright, and acted more and more cautiously. The room seemed to be congealed with thick glue, and there was obviously a large group of people standing, but it was silent and silent.
Qingcheng went down to the kang to ask for peace, and instructed outward: "Erqi, go and bring the plum blossom snow water that was harvested yesterday." He turned around and took the tea leaves from the cabinet and said, "Boiling Biluochun with this year's clean snow water is the most mellow." ”
Hai Chang was terrified in his heart, fidgeting, listening to Qingcheng speak, although there was a smile on his face, but he was as stiff as wood, and he didn't even dare to squeak.
The emperor said: "Biluochun is not good, I will reward you with a few taels of daughter Biluochun to eat." ”
Hai'an knew that Qingcheng was going to make tea himself, so he hurriedly took a whole set of white jade porcelain cups, set up a stove under the eaves, and ordered Erqi to boil snow water. For a while, Erqi brought boiling water, and Qingcheng put a cup on the coffee table, kneading the tea leaves, while dividing them into the cup, and then slowly watering them with fine water, and within half a while, there was a strong tea fragrance.
Hai Changzai couldn't help but sigh: "It's the first time I've smelled such fragrant tea." ”
Qingcheng raised half a cup and presented it to her first, saying, "Since you haven't tasted it, let you eat it first." ”
Hai Chang chuckled in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Give it to the emperor first." ”
The emperor waved his hand and said indifferently: "It's okay." After a pause, he said: "But the hot tea should be cool, and then taste it carefully when it is warm." ”
Qingcheng smiled and said, "The emperor still understands everything." ”
The emperor was amused by her, and couldn't help but say, "It's your sweet mouth." Seeing that the emperor had a smile, Wu Shulai suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, let go of half of his heart, and said secretly: "There is still a way for a pure master." ”
Hai Chang was also surprised, opened his eyes and looked at the situation, and remained silent.
After drinking tea, Hai Changzai didn't dare to sit anymore, so he withdrew, Zhiyan waited under the corridor, and said with a happy eyebrow: "Master..."
Hai Chang was busy losing his eyes, and Zhiyan suddenly stopped talking. The two walked to Yikun Gate, and Zhiyan smiled and said, "The master came by such a coincidence, and he actually bumped into the royal driver." Hai Chang remembered the appearance of the emperor and the pure concubine just now, smiled coldly, and said: "What is the coincidence, the emperor has been in Yikun Palace for eight out of ten days, and it is not uncommon to bump into him." ”
Zhiyan said: "In this case, the master should often come to see the pure master, and it is good to be able to see the emperor's face." ”
Hai Changzai saved the handkerchief in his hand, nodded and said, "Having said that, I am afraid that the pure concubine will be suspicious if I come too much." ”
Zhi Yan said: "What kind of person is the pure master, don't you know?" is the most kind-hearted, the birthday of the previous master, there are so many people in the palace, only the pure master remembers, it can be seen that she has not forgotten how well you treat her every day. ”
Hai Chang was secretly thinking for a moment, smiled and said, "What benefits did the pure concubine give you, and she spoke for her with her mouth full." ”
Zhiyan said with a smile: "The slave is just telling the truth, if the master can rely on the pure master, it will never be wrong." ”
The emperor was very interested, drank the tea boiled with green oranges, and asked Wu Shulai to go to the Yangxin Palace to get his daughter Biluochun, and the two cooked tea for most of the day, and at night, not only were they full, but also a little difficult to sleep. The emperor held the green orange, and the two sat on the warm couch next to each other, the candle flame jumped, and the oblique shadow of the flower branch shone on the curtain, rippling slightly.
The emperor said: "The queen has been in poor health, and the imperial doctor said that it was caused by depression. I wanted to celebrate the New Year, and I took her to the Mulan paddock to hunt in the spring. ”
Qingcheng's heart turned a thousand times, and there were 10,000 words of refusal, but he only asked in a low voice: "How long will you stay?" ”
The emperor said: "At least ten days and a half months, and at most one month and two months." ”
Qingcheng squeezed his face around his waist, wrapped his arms tightly, and said, "Are you willing to give up me?" ”
The emperor listened to her words with a little bitterness, and his tone became more and more softened, and said: "The queen is my wife, Yonglian is gone, her sorrow does not have to be less, only more than me..."
Qingcheng suddenly said, "You go." ”
The emperor's eyebrows stretched, the corners of his lips pulled into a smile, patted her back, and said, "Why aren't you jealous again?" ”
Qingcheng rubbed his waist with his face, and the soft Jiang silk shirt was rubbed on his cheeks, and the slight pain made people feel nostalgic. She said: "I am also a woman, and since I am pregnant, I always feel that all children in the world should be cherished. Anyway, the second elder brother also called me a mother. The emperor was pleased and said, "Don't worry, everything in the palace will be arranged, and I will not let others disturb you." ”
Qingcheng hummed, closed his eyes, and leaned on the emperor peacefully, letting the sleepiness gradually spread over his heart. The Emperor saw that she was asleep, and crept up again. The governor of Zhejiang sent a secret letter of 600 miles urgently, and in order to coax her to sleep, he delayed it for half an hour.
Wu Shulai was in the outhouse early, and when he saw the emperor coming out, he hurriedly stepped forward with a robe and a big coat, and Ma Li put it on, so he took a warm sedan chair and returned to the Yangxin Palace. In the middle of the night, the emperor summoned Zhang Tingyu, Ortai and others to talk, and when he was done, it was already dawn, he only squinted his eyes slightly, and called to Qianqingmen to listen to the government.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, the green orange was cold, and the doctor did not dare to use medicine at will, so he had to stay groggy and sleepy.
The queen decreed that she should not attend the banquet and that she should not be allowed to attend the banquet. When the emperor heard this, he was very comforted. He was very busy for several days, in addition to receiving foreign envoys, princes and ministers, he also had to pay homage everywhere according to the ancestral system, and even so, he would send people to Yikun Palace every day for questioning. After a small half month, in the early spring, the green orange side turned better.
After the Lantern Festival banquet, the emperor was drunk and slightly drunk, guarded the palace system, and went to Changchun Palace to sleep. The moonlight was like water, the sky was full of stars, and the emperor sat on his shoulder, blown by the cold wind, and was sober for most of the time. The queen came out early, she wore a thin robe embroidered with red makeup and phoenix birds, and her bun was decorated with peonies and golden steps, slender and weak, which was pitiful.
The emperor got down and grabbed her hand, only to feel cold to the bone, and couldn't help but say, "You should take care of your body." ”
The queen smiled shallowly, full of words, but only said one sentence, "Thank you for your concern." ”
The two of them took hands and entered the house, but saw a woman standing on the edge of the threshold to ask for peace, the emperor was stunned, frowned slightly, and said, "Why are you here?" Concubine Shu smiled and said: "Just now, the queen drank some wine at the banquet, and her head was a little dizzy, and the concubine was not at ease, so she took the lead to send the queen back to the palace, and before she was leaving, the emperor came." ”
When the emperor looked at it, he saw that the queen's cheeks were flushed, and when he smelled it carefully, there was a faint smell of wine.
The queen smiled: "The concubines are not strong enough to drink, which makes the emperor laugh." The emperor said, "You are not in good health, you should avoid alcohol." The queen said: "On a good day, the concubines are happy, and it is inevitable to be greedy for a few sips." After a pause, he said softly: "The concubine is not feeling well today, and I am afraid that she will not be able to sleep." ”
There is no need for the queen to say it explicitly, the emperor also knows what she means. He was slightly unhappy in his heart, but he didn't show it, but said lightly: "I go to the Shu Concubine Palace, you take good care of your body, if you have any discomfort, immediately Xuan Taiyi came over to take a look, don't hold on." ”
He was concerned in his heart, and it was rare to reveal the friendship between husband and wife, and the queen's heart was warm, and she felt a little remorseful, but the words had been spoken, and there was no room for redemption, so she had to say: "Thank the emperor for his thoughts, and the concubines will live up to the king's grace." ”
The emperor nodded, rested in Changchun Palace for a while, and left with Shu Concubine. Concubine Shu had been favored before, so she naturally refused to lose the opportunity in vain, and used all her strength to please the emperor, and the emperor seemed to have turned his mind around and favored her as before.
On this day, the weather is sunny, the dead branches in the courtyard are beginning to sprout, the emerald green leaves on the ground are also drilled all over the ground, and the green orange stands under the eaves of the corridor to look at, and there is a sense of spring, the grass grows and the warbler flies. Hai'an held the cloak trench coat of Shi Qing forging in his hand and said, "It's a good day today, do you want to go to the Imperial Garden?" The slave and maid went to announce the sedan chair. ”
Qingcheng's lower abdomen bulged, supported his waist with one hand, and supported Hai'an with the other, and said: "There is no need to announce the sedan chair, I just walk, where I can go, I don't have to go to the imperial garden." ”
Hai An responded, helped Qingcheng out of Yikun Gate, and walked towards Gong Street. Halfway through, Qingcheng suddenly said, "Let's go to the Heart Cultivation Palace." ”
Hai An said: "The emperor has not summoned him, and the master is reckless, I'm afraid it's not good." ”
Qingcheng smiled and said, "Who said I was going to the Heart Cultivation Palace?" Just walk along the road. Hai'an carefully wrapped her cloak and said, "Yongdao is windy, so you can't stay for a long time." ”
Qingcheng said: "I know, I wear a hat, I'm not afraid." ”
There are palace people on both sides of the palace street from time to time, and when they see Qingcheng, they all stand quietly and avoid the corner, and when Qingcheng is far away, they dare to get up.
Qingcheng has not been out of Yikun Gate for two or three months, and now it is out and smoked by the spring breeze, which is very happy. She smiled: "Go back for a while, let the kitchen make two spring bamboo shoots stir-fry to eat, with a few sips of rice wine, it's also good." ”
Hai An knew that she was talking casually and would not really drink, so he echoed: "Wouldn't it be better to have the emperor with you." ”
Qingcheng smiled and said, "This is really a beautiful thing in the world!" It was just when he said happily that someone suddenly said behind him: "What is the joy of the pure master, let me be happy." ”
Qingcheng turned around and looked, but it was the queen who was surrounded by a guard of honor and came with a salary, and she was busy curtting. The queen ordered Shanrou to hold on and said, "You are pregnant, and you can be exempted from courtesy." When I was pregnant with my second brother, I often had unbearable pain in my waist, would you? ”
Qingcheng said truthfully: "I'm fine, occasionally a little sore, not painful." ”
The queen nodded and said, "That's good." Then he asked, "Are you going to the Heart Cultivation Temple?" I'm about to discuss with the emperor about setting up the Mulan paddock the day after tomorrow, so let's go together. ”
