Chapter 237: I don't know what to do
Although the queen was glad that she had lifted her grounding, when she thought that the emperor would go out to escape the summer and take An Ge with her, if she didn't arrange it well, she would definitely be tongued.
There were already rumors in the palace that there was no clarity between the emperor and An Ge, and if she hadn't noticed something in the slightest, this kind of dirty and dirty rumor would only get worse at that time.
The queen couldn't make up her mind for a while, and she lay on the bed of the arhat in the palace and sighed for a long time, and the heat in the hall and the cicadas outside made her even more upset and unable to think.
Seeing that the master was in a bad mood, Zicui guessed a little, thought of an idea, and said, "Concubine Ning is about to give birth in more than a month, I'm afraid it will be inconvenient to go to Yiyuan again." ”
The queen didn't understand what she meant by this for a while, and nodded: "The palace knows that although Yiyuan is cool, it is not as convenient as the palace, and it is well prepared everywhere, and the palace plans to leave Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Ning behind, so as not to get tired on the road and have any more accidents." ”
"Since Concubine Ning is not going, then she will arrange for the concubines who go to the summer to eat, live and travel, and they must be selfless and convincing, so it is better to call Concubine Ning over to discuss together."
Zicui reminded her in a roundabout way, just say directly, you are the queen's mother, and the harem concubines will listen to you, and if you don't want to do it, just throw the pot to others.
The queen also felt that this matter was feasible, so she immediately called Zicui to invite Concubine Ning over.
Concubine Ning and the queen drew up a list of accompanying concubines, and now there are not many concubines in the palace, so except for her and Concubine Zhuang, they all brought them, and asked one by one if there were any who were too far away and didn't want to run.
But when talking about An Ge, Concubine Ning also made a difficulty: "It's really not like the emperor going to escape the summer and bringing his courtier's wife, I think it's better not to ask her to go." ”
The queen said helplessly: "Last time, I went to persuade the emperor to agree to Jinglan to return to Beijing and reunite with An Ge and his wife, but I was directly grounded by the emperor...... Sister, now that you are about to give birth, what you said in front of the emperor, why don't you propose a sentence? ”
......" Concubine Ning didn't dare, she didn't want to wade into this muddy water.
She pondered for a moment, didn't answer the sentence, and instead proposed, "Why don't we talk to An Ge?" Her husband is now in prison, and I don't believe she still has the heart to escape the summer. ”
"What? Jinglan is locked up? ”
Concubine Ning nodded and said in surprise: "You still don't know?" It was spread all over the palace, saying that the emperor punished Jinglan for not complying with the decree and returning to Beijing without authorization, so he was locked up, but I think there seems to be a hidden ...... in the matter."
Concubine Ning knew that after Jinglan returned to Beijing, the emperor wanted to let them go, so he let An Ge go home with him to reunite, but now, why did he suddenly call him into the palace and lock him up? Could it be that the emperor regretted sleeping for a while?
She felt that she was about to give birth and made a fool, and she didn't want to think about it too much, so she said: "I also have some friendship with An Ge, she respects me a lot on weekdays, otherwise let's persuade her together?" ”
The queen didn't ask much else, thought about it, and then clapped her hands and said, "That's a good idea." ”
Then, An Ge was invited by the queen to Yikun Palace, and politely gave her a seat
After that, the queen opened her mouth and said serious things: "An Ge, the emperor is going to Yiyuan to escape the summer, do you want to go together?" ”
An Ge felt that the queen's temptation was really ridiculous, so he chuckled and said, "If the emperor is willing to take me there, I will go, it just so happens that I also feel that the Beijing is stuffy and unbearable." ”
The queen was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Concubine Ning, and Concubine Ning said again: "An Ge, are you afraid that you don't know that Jinglan entered the palace to look for you, but was imprisoned by the emperor?" In this case, do you still have the heart to escape the heat? ”
An Ge clenched her fists involuntarily, Concubine Ning's accusations she understood, but thinking of what Yin Mu said to her, she still resisted the urge to confess to them, and only said: "My husband resisted the decree and returned to Beijing, the emperor did not kill him, I am already grateful to the emperor, do you still want to go to the emperor and cry and beg the emperor to let him go?" If the emperor really doesn't dispose of my husband, where will he put the Dali Rite Law? Courtiers are not such impolite people. ”
The queen's face turned pale by her, and she said: "Do you know that Yiyuan is a royal summer manor, except for the emperor, only the concubine and the prince and the princess can go over, what kind of system did you become in the past?" Aren't you afraid that someone outside will poke your backbone and say that you don't keep women's morals? ”
An Ge raised his head to look at the queen, with a contemptuous smile on the corner of his mouth, and said: "It is the responsibility of the queen to control the mouths of the people in the palace, why do you blame the courtiers if you don't do it well?" Moreover, don't say that the courtiers and the emperor are innocent, even if there is really something, so what? The emperor is afraid of so many women? ”
As soon as the queen's breath stagnated, her nose became sour, and she wanted to cry as soon as she said that she couldn't help others.
Concubine Ning's temper was extremely irritable during her pregnancy, and at this time, she stood up angrily, pointed at An Ge and scolded: "Brute! Hongu really misjudged you in the past! Fortunately, Qilu didn't marry you at the beginning, and even if you do, you will come out of the wall sooner or later! Slut! Get out of here! ”
An Ge's face did not change, and he bowed and withdrew.
Walking out of Kunning Palace, she raised her elbow and pressed her sour eyes, trying to take back the tears that she couldn't hold back.
Yin Mu said that this matter is very important, and she is not allowed to mention it to anyone, if she didn't say that, and bluntly said that she had a hard time, maybe the queen and Concubine Ning would ask again, so she simply turned her face directly with them, saving herself from facing their concern in the future, and she couldn't hold back and reveal it.
Concubine Ning and the queen are both kind to her, and they are also the two people she respects the most in this harem.
The pain of breaking with them is beyond words.
Hold back, a temporary break, and a peaceful life between him and Jinglan in the future is worth it.
But in the main hall, the queen couldn't hold back, and after An Ge left, she burst into tears and cried into tears.
Concubine Ning was irritable in her heart, looked at the queen and said: "Queen Mother, you don't need to cry if you don't persuade her, she will go if she goes, she will go out of the wall, you will treat her as a fart, and ignore her in the future." ”
The queen wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and lamented, "How did An Ge become like this now? I thought she was unyielding, but I really misjudged her, woo woo ......"
The queen sobbed for a moment, and then suddenly said to Zicui: "Go and get the box at my bedside."
Come here. ”
Zicui responded, went down and took the queen's box, the queen opened the box, Concubine Ning saw that there were pieces of paper inside, and couldn't help but be curious: "What is this?" ”
The queen sobbed and said: "I usually like to read the words written by An Ge, I have reduced all the things she wrote and kept them well, today's book, I will never like her again in the future!" I'm going to burn all the books she wrote! Zicui, bring the brazier. ”
"Yes."
Concubine Ning couldn't cry or laugh a little, she really envied the queen's temperament, breaking with someone is the same as breaking with a child, burning the other party's things is over, and she doesn't want to use her position and power to take revenge.
But Concubine Ning didn't bother to care about it, anyway, she didn't go to the summer, she couldn't see it out of sight and was not bothered, let them make trouble.
Even if she comes back from the summer vacation and tells her that An Ge has become the emperor's new concubine, then she doesn't care, she can't take care of it. However, compared to the time when someone will not be able to bear to deal with her.
That's right, you can ask someone else to make trouble with An Ge, Concubine Ning rolled her eyes, and said to the queen: "You bring Concubine Xian with you, Concubine Xian and An Ge have always been at odds, if she also goes, the two of them will definitely make trouble, and they won't have time to make trouble for you." ”
The queen hesitated, "But...... Concubine Xian is also pregnant now, and the emperor doesn't like to see her......"
"When Concubine Xian was favored, who could compare to her in the Six Palaces? I don't like to see her now just because I blame her for stabbing Ange. Rest assured, since the emperor can make her pregnant, it proves that the emperor still has feelings for Concubine Xian, and now that her month is stable, there will be no danger. Concubine Ning took the queen's hand and persuaded, "You go and ask Concubine Xian for a favor, and the emperor will agree to Concubine Xian to go too." ”
The queen felt justified again, and nodded to deal with the matter, but remembering Fang Cai's attitude towards her, her heart became sad again.
"I have saved her several times before, and I knew that the first time the emperor wanted to kill her, I shouldn't have interfered!" The queen lamented, "Now, no matter what she does, I'm afraid the emperor will be reluctant to do anything to her." ”
Concubine Ning didn't want to listen to her sad words and affect her mood, so she said, "I can't smell the ashes, you burn it here, I'll go back to the palace first." ”
The queen nodded, and asked someone to send Concubine Ning away.
The next day, the queen went to ask for favors from Concubine Xian, and the emperor seemed to be in a good mood and immediately agreed.
So the matter of going to Yiyuan for the summer vacation was decided, and Yin Mu said that it would pass as soon as possible, and the queen had to advance the originally arranged time by a few days.
On the day of departure, the concubines of the palace were already ready, standing in front of a row of cars and waiting for the emperor.
The queen asked Concubine Xian for favors, and she could also go out to escape the summer, but she had offended too many people in the past, and no one wanted to be close to her.
Now she stood at the forefront, looking into the distance, proudly independent, and didn't seem to take the bunch of chattering concubines behind her in her eyes.
The queen's car was behind the queen's, followed by the virtuous concubine's. Now there are only two concubines in the harem, Concubine Xian and Concubine Ning, and Concubine Ning will not come.
In addition to the emperor and queen, it is the highest position of the virtuous concubine, so it is reasonable to arrange it.
Ange's car was arranged at the rear.
The emperor's carriage canopy is solemn, carved railings and paintings, showing the royal majesty everywhere.
The carriages of the virtuous concubines and other concubines were a little inferior, but they were also bright and pleasant to the eye, and the rings were clanging.
Only Ange's car, except for the pure wood-colored carriage, has no other carved decoration, which looks extremely shabby.
The queen's intentions against An Ge are also obvious.
Now the emperor and An Ge have not yet arrived, but the concubines can't hold back their lively mood, so they just wait for An Ge to come over and see how she has no face.
But everyone didn't expect that An Ge actually came with the emperor.
All the palace concubines closed their mouths together as if they had made an appointment, and looked closely at An Ge who was walking behind Yin Mu, dressed in a bright red brocade robe, with a peony swaying obliquely in his hair, his makeup was light, and the whole person was bright and beautiful.
In the past, An Ge, who was plain-faced, was so stunning once he was dressed up.
No wonder, some people say that when An Ge participated in the palace election as a show girl, the emperor fell in love with her at a glance.
No wonder, time has passed, she has married a wife, and the emperor still misses her.
No wonder, the emperor would rather risk offending the ministers of the humerus and want her to enter the palace.
This kind of appearance, if it can really accompany the king's side, it is definitely to be favored by the sixth palace.
