Chapter 40: Restoration of Favor 2
Today is the fifteenth day of July, and the moon is hanging in the sky early, like a jade plate, shining brightly in the palace.
But it doesn't seem to be in the palace.
In the empty courtyard, there is only one case in the center, and a woman dressed in red sits next to the desk, with a pot of wine and two dishes in front of her.
A plain hand stretched out from his red sleeve, took a wine glass, and drank it up.
There was no grease powder on the face, but it was red from drunkenness.
She looked at the bright moon in the sky, and then looked at the closed palace door.
He smiled self-deprecatingly.
Today is her birthday, and she is waiting, waiting for that person.
Spring Feast
A glass of green wine sings over and over again
Bow to Chen Sanyuan again
One wish Langjun is a thousand years old
Second, I wish that the concubine will always be healthy
The three wishes are like Liang Shangyan
We often see each other year after year
What she muttered was the poem that Sisi had come to the palace a few days ago, saying that she had heard that a woman in the market had written it, and she thought it was very well written.
We often see each other every year, and we often see each other every year.
Xiao Cairen sighed, but his simple wish was rare, and he was going to see His Majesty again?
Looking up, another glass of wine was drunk.
Outside the door
His Majesty's sedan chair fell to the ground at the gate of the palace, and looking at the acacia flowers scattered all over the place, his heart tugged.
Once upon a time, when did he come to the Luoying Palace, and the Luoying Palace was as desolate as it is today?
Pushed open the door, the door creaked, and the emperor did not let people report, and entered the Luoying Palace by himself.
No one came to greet him, and in the middle of the courtyard, only a woman in red was drinking to herself.
looks like Xiao Cairen, but she has never been dressed in red like this.
"Why does Concubine Ai drink alone?"
"Yo, it's Your Majesty here!"
Xiao Cairen wanted to struggle to see the courtesy, but his legs were weak, "Your Majesty, don't blame, the concubine didn't know that His Majesty was here today, and the concubine was rude." ”
The emperor looked at Xiao Cairen in the moonlight, she was wearing a light red dress that she had never worn on weekdays, her hair was not tied in a bun, and she was only tied with a red ribbon behind her back.
She didn't apply powder, her face was flushed, and she didn't wear shoes.
"Why did Your Majesty think that I came to see the concubine today, and the concubine thought that Your Majesty had forgotten about the concubine."
His eyes were filled with tears for a moment, and it hurt like pins and needles in the emperor's heart.
"Qingqing, the widow has come to see you, today is your birthday, how can the widow forget?"
The Emperor stepped forward and sat down across from the case.
"Your Majesty came to see the concubine, and the concubine rejoiced in her heart." She raised the wine glass in her hand, "Concubine, respect Your Majesty." ”
The cuffs slipped off, leaking out a piece of white arms.
"Concubine Ai doesn't drink a lot on weekdays, so don't drink it."
"Your Majesty is wrong, the concubine is no longer Your Majesty's favorite concubine."
Xiao Cairen smiled.
"Your Majesty complains about the concubines, and I don't believe that the concubines didn't do anything like that, so they detain the concubines in the Luoying Palace." She raised her hand, "You see, there is only one concubine left in this palace in the end." ”
As soon as the emperor entered the door, he noticed the depression of Luoying Palace, thinking that the master was in trouble, and the palace people were scattered.
"Qingqing is a widow." The emperor caught Xiao Cairen's little hand.
"The concubine doesn't dare to resent Your Majesty, the concubine just hates herself for being incompetent, she can't share her worries with Your Majesty, and she wants Your Majesty to hurt her concubine."
Xiao Cairen's drunken eyes were hazy, which added to the sense of coquettishness.
"Is there anything Your Majesty is worried about?" The slender hand touched the emperor's eyebrows.
It was crouching all the time, and it didn't seem to have a moment of comfort.
"It's good for the concubine to dance for His Majesty."
After speaking, Xiao Cairen staggered to his feet.
She stepped barefoot on the cold bluestone slab ground, and the red yarn weave was light and white jade feet.
She hummed a song in her mouth and turned in circles, her hair was black like ink, and she was holding the pattern in her bare hands, and her face was like a peach blossom.
The emperor was stunned.
"The widowed Qingqing has never had the appearance of today, very beautiful."
With a stumbling moment, the emperor reached out and took her in his arms.
"The posture of the concubine is like a fairy, and the widow is stunned."
"Your Majesty!"
Xiao Cairen sparked softly as if he was shy.
The emperor picked her up by the waist and went to the inner hall.
Concubine An was still thinking about what to do, and she summoned this Mama Zhang:
"Quick, send this letter to the northwest, and then send it to General An by fast horses!"
Mama Zhang instructed the matter and came to massage Concubine An: "Niangniang, you don't have to worry, Lord An has been appreciated by His Majesty for so many years, and this time he will not be severely punished, but Niangniang, Your Majesty misunderstood Niangniang, and Niangniang did not justify, if Your Majesty is really disgusted with Niangniang, how can it be good, Niangniang still hurry up and think about regaining favor." ”
"I don't know about this palace, but if there is no Anhuai, it would be easy to regain favor, but now, it is difficult to say."
"Niangniang, Niangniang, the eyeliner of the Wolong Palace is back, saying that His Majesty went to Luoying Palace."
The door was anxiously reported by the palace people, and as soon as she had the news, she came to report it immediately, without delaying for a moment.
"What?"
Concubine An slapped the table heavily, "This Xiao Qingqing is actually resurrected?" ”
"Niangniang, it's July 15."
Mama Zhang suddenly remembered.
"What? It's that slut's birthday, why don't you tell me! ”
With a snap, a mouth hit Mama Zhang's face, and the position that was attached to the side of the ear was scraped by the armor that was not deep or shallow.
"Niangniang is angry, the old slave is also anxious about the matter of Lord An, I really just remembered it."
Mama Zhang immediately knelt on the ground and slapped herself a few more times.
"That's it, even if it has been prevented a long time ago, His Majesty will definitely go to see her on her birthday. Let him go, and when he comes to the Japanese palace to get out of the predicament, he can still pull her down from above. ”
Xiao Cairen didn't know how An Shi was chewing the root of her tongue behind his back, and she was busy talking to His Majesty at the moment.
Although they have been husband and wife for a long time, they both seem to be the first time today, and both of them are ashamed, but Xiao Cairen mentioned it first.
"Your Majesty, do you see that your concubine is old?"
"How can the widow get old?"
"Is the concubine beautiful today?"
"Nature is extremely beautiful."
The emperor didn't say anything to shake her, she was really beautiful today, like a white pear flower, which bloomed into a red peony overnight.
Luo Xian was relieved, and he was wearing a big red bra sent by Sisi.
The style is bold and silky.
"Aifei, what is this?"
Xiao Cairen smiled: "Does Your Majesty like it?" ”
I like it, who doesn't? Although Xiao Cairen is in his thirties, the charm still exists, the place where there should be is not bad at all, and the skin is whiter than snow, and he usually pulls his clothes to his neck, but today is really different from usual.
Therefore, if you want to attract men, you still have to have a certain contrast and cuteness, this matter is taught by Sisi himself, and he forced Xiao Cairen to do this.
In this way, the results are quite remarkable.
The inner hall of Luoying Palace is full of spring and has been turned into red waves.
Early in the morning of the second day, he got the news of Xiao Cairen's reinstatement and left without hesitation.
Sisi was very happy to hold the letter from Li Yuanche's flying pigeon in his hand.
Not only did Xiao Cairen regain his favor and become Concubine Xiao Shu again, but An's younger brother actually caused such a big trouble to His Majesty, now she is a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect herself.
As long as An's life is in trouble, Sisi will be happy, and he will eat if he is happy: "Zhuqing, get me half a roast chicken!" ”
Zhu Qing was already accustomed to the appetite that came from Sisi at every turn, so he went to prepare without even asking.
Sisi honestly replied to the four princes at the table.
Please come to the pavilion to solve your doubts
The letter did not mention the name of the person, but in Changlai Pavilion, Li Yuanche would definitely bring the fifth princess.
This protracted battle has come to an end.
