Returning to the Palace (3)
On July 28, the royal driver returned to the palace in Beijing from the palace in the western suburbs.
Taking advantage of the fact that everyone was busy, Shen Wan quietly pulled over the fragrant tea and asked, "How is Concubine Qi over there!" ”
Xiangming said in a low voice: "Don't worry, Niangniang, with Su'e here, even if someone wants to do it, they can't find a chance!" ”
Shen Wan nodded slightly, and said: "First, they decided that they had caught the weakness of Qi Concubine, and Qi Concubine would not fight back, so they didn't care about her for the time being, and secondly, ......" She paused, and then smiled: "What they are most worried about at the moment is not Qi Concubine, but about this palace!" ”
Xiangming quickly glanced at Shen Wan's lower abdomen, and said: "Therefore, the mother should think more about herself, and the slaves and maids will also be careful in everything, now they are going back to the palace, and the queen mother is in the palace......"
Shen Wan said in a low voice: "I'll be careful!" ”
At one time, someone came in front of him to ask the queen to get in the car, and in this way, the royal car returned to the palace in a mighty way.
After a day's journey, I returned to the palace, and it was already dark.
When I returned to the palace, I had to go to the Queen Mother with Xichen to say goodbye.
Since Xichen guessed that Concubine Qi's Jiuhe incense involved the Queen Mother, she became more and more indifferent to the Queen Mother.
But after all, the Queen Mother was Xichen's biological mother, so she personally helped Xichen get up, carefully observed his face, and said after a while: "Fortunately, it has not been cleared!" ”
The more she is like this, the more suspicious she becomes, but she doesn't show it on her face, but she is colder in her heart.
"Mother Lao is worried that her son is just going to the palace to escape the summer, and I will not clear it after I am virtuous!" After Xichen sat down, he said lightly.
The Queen Mother glanced at Shen Wan and said indifferently: "The queen is virtuous or not, the mourning family really doesn't know, but I heard that Fang Jieyu and Qi Guiren, who the queen invited later, one died, and the other said that it was an ominous person, what did you say!" ”
Shen Wan smiled on her face, and slandered in her heart: Then naturally I have to ask the Queen Mother.
said in his mouth: "Fang Jieyu fell into the water, it's a pity, the concubine is planning to posthumously crown her as a concubine after returning to the palace, as for the Qi noble, she is now a Qi concubine!" She raised her head and looked at the queen mother with some cloudy eyes: "Concubine Qi is also a blessing, although there was the emperor's favor before, but somehow, every time the emperor pampered her, she would always feel dizzy, therefore, the concubine watched the stars at night in Qintianjian and found that the stars of Concubine Qi collided with the emperor, which is very ominous?" ”
The Queen Mother already had a ghost in her heart, but when she heard it at this time, she felt even more frightened, and hurriedly looked at Xichen and asked, "Emperor, if this is really the case, you are still dizzy now!" ”
Xichen's heart sank, and he said lightly: "Don't worry, the queen mother, since I grounded Concubine Qi, I haven't felt unwell!" ”
The Queen Mother stroked her chest and sighed: "That's good, that's good, if because of a concubine, the emperor's dragon body is affected, then it really shouldn't be, although there are not many women in the palace, but they can't risk themselves!" ”
The corners of Shen Wan's lips curled, and the corners of her eyes caught a glimpse of Xichen's gaze, and she sighed again in her heart.
The reason why the Queen Mother did this was nothing more than to let Concubine Qi share Shen Wan's favor, not to mention, whether this bad idea came from the Queen Mother or Concubine Pei, it is still unknown.
At the beginning, Concubine Qing could think of letting the Queen Mother try witchcraft, and the Queen Mother did not hesitate to violate these in order to get rid of herself, but now, it is very likely that she was instigated by Concubine Pei.
Whether it is the Queen Mother or Concubine Pei, Shen Wan will not let go of these two people.
Shen Wan always felt restless in Shou'an Palace, and was about to signal Xichen to go back, but heard the Queen Mother say again: "Alas! Think about it, Emperor, you only drafted this year, but you have folded so much so quickly, I don't know if their blessings are too thin, or if the filth in this palace is too much! As he spoke, he glanced at Shen Wan intentionally or unintentionally.
Shen Wan just didn't realize it, sitting upright, with a just right smile on her lips.
The Queen Mother said: "Now that the West has won a great victory, and the lord of the West is seriously injured, it can be seen that there will be no invasion of our country for a while, taking advantage of this great joy, it is better to draft again, what does the emperor think!" ”
Shen Wan's face did not change, but Xichen frowned and said: "The draft was originally held once every three years, but now it has only been selected for a few months this year, and I have to be selected again, it is too hard to work and waste money, so let's give up!" ”
The Queen Mother said unhappily: "The mourning family also knows that it takes so much effort, but the emperor, you should also think about it for the sake of the heir!" There are so many people around you, but you don't treat them very well, just blindly guarding the fox ...... Hmph, fortunately, Concubine Pei worked hard and raised the eldest son of the emperor, otherwise, the mourning family would really be angry with you! ”
Shen Wan couldn't help but want to laugh when she heard the three words "fox charmer" that she swallowed hard, and when she looked sideways, she saw that Xichen's face was very unhappy, so she couldn't help it again.
Sorry for the dust, he got up and said: "My son is tired, go back to rest first, and the queen mother will go to bed early!" ”
As he spoke, he pulled Shen Wan away, and the Queen Mother only sighed.
As soon as the emperor and queen left, Mama Yao walked in and said, "Queen Mother, Concubine Pei asks to see!" ”
The Queen Mother thought for a while and said, "Let her come in!" ”
Because the palaces have already received the news that they have returned to the palace, the palace has already been cleaned properly.
Shen Wan returned to her familiar dormitory, felt that her body was finally brisk, and said to Cui Shanggong and others: "Everyone is tired today, rest in peace!" He asked Xichen again: "Is the emperor spending the night here tonight?" ”
Xichen said: "I'm not here, where can I be?" ”
For a while, the two washed up and went to bed.
Holding Shen Wan's delicate body, Xichen sighed: "I never thought that my queen mother would do such a thing to me!" ”
Shen Wan hugged him sideways, although she didn't like the Queen Mother in her heart, she couldn't fall into the well at this time, so she said: "Actually, the emperor doesn't have to worry so much, I still remember the concubine that day!" ”
Xichen was stunned, and Shen Wan said: "The Queen Mother's beloved son is sincere, how could she come up with such a method?" It's probably because I've been bewitched by others, or I think that Jiuhexiang doesn't hurt my body, so I ......"
Without waiting for Shen Wan to finish speaking, Xichen already contained Sen's cold anger, and spit out fiercely between his teeth: "Concubine Pei! ”
After all, it was his biological mother, and he didn't want to think too much of his mother, so all the resentment was transferred to Concubine Pei.
Shen Wan sighed leisurely: "I know, now that General Pei has made military exploits again, this time, he will have to add officials to the knighthood, and even with Concubine Pei, it should not be underestimated!" ”
Xichen was silent, and the arm holding Shen Wan suddenly tightened.
Shen Wan knew that the heart of the emperor had already aroused murderous intent.
Although General Pei has great military achievements, but, the so-called strong ministers will die, such a high achievement shocking the lord, such as Xichen, a king who can't even tolerate his father, how can he tolerate General Pei who has a heavy army?
I knew in my heart that as long as General Pei fell, Concubine Pei would not be afraid.
When the time comes, it will be easy to get rid of Concubine Pei.
With a smile, Shen Wan's body moved, and she slept with her back to Xichen.
Xichen also turned around and reached out to lift the hem of her nightdress.
"Yikes!" Shen Wan let out a short scream, her body bowed into a shrimp-like shape, and suddenly felt her body being penetrated from behind, the sudden intrusion made her feel uncomfortable for a while, but with Xichen's teasing and movements, her body also became soothed.
As if it was some kind of catharsis, his movements became more and more violent, and she grabbed the sheets under her tightly as she rushed, moaning and moaning more and more confused and charming,
