Chapter 10: Rumors
Since Xu Pingjun entered the palace, Liu Ai has swept away his previous depression, and after dealing with the government in the next dynasty, he went to Xu Pingjun to get together with his wife and children. As for the government affairs of the DPRK and China, Liu Ai has been mostly handed over to Huo Guang, so he is not busy, but has a lot of time to be with their mother and son, and his life is also harmonious and beautiful.
Although Xu Pingjun entered the palace for a short time, he adapted very quickly, the rules in the palace did not cross the thunder pool, and the empress dowager who lived in Changle Palace also greeted him every day, after a long time, he became more and more familiar with Shangguan Youhao, when Liu Ill had dealt with government affairs, Xu Pingjun was in the same room with Shangguan Youhao, the two were of the same age, and they also had something to talk about, so that Liu Ill was not worried.
The Han Palace is deep and wide, the eunuch palace is full of people, lonely but always full of quiet corners, "There are few people disturbed here, it is a good place to rest." "Shangguan Youhao has become accustomed to seclusion and silence from a person's loneliness, because Xu Pingjun is there, she did not choose the quietest place, but only arrived at the pavilion of the imperial garden that will not be disturbed.
The cool breeze stirred the broken hair on his forehead, the autumn of October was deep, the winter was approaching, and the cold was getting heavier, and Shangguan Youhao, who didn't know what kind of contemplation he had fallen into, was awakened by a sneeze, "It's cool, go back." Xu Pingjun has not been able to rest well after giving birth, and his body has never been well, and after Liu Ill has entered the palace, he has become weaker and weaker because of the deepening of his worries.
"Xu Jieyu is only a third-class person who is so favored, and the prince is just a concubine, in my opinion, Your Majesty may not be so cherished."
"No, the daughter of Boluhou is only afraid that she will be the master of this harem......"
However, the joy of a few people in the harem is always related to the honor and disgrace of others, even Xu Pingjun, who is favored by the emperor, cannot escape the rumors.
"When was it so quiet in the palace?" When Shangguan Youhao and Xu Pingjun came down from the pavilion, they happened to hear this gossip, and Shangguan Youhao immediately spoke out to stop it, what happened between Xu Pingjun and Liu Ai, Shangguan Youhao would not talk about it, but when it came to Huo Mansion, Shangguan Youhao didn't want them to continue to talk, how many courtiers died under the rumors, not to mention that Huo Chengjun was involved.
How could the palace maid pay attention to the fact that there were still people on the pavilion, and went all the way down, listening to her words in her ears, only to be so frightened that she hurriedly knelt on the ground, "The Empress Dowager and Xu Jieyu spared their lives, and the slave maid was speechless for a while." The three palace maids had lost their faces, and they couldn't stop kowtowing.
No matter how the palace maid begged for mercy, Shangguan Youhao did not have the intention of soft-hearted, "The palace rules have been memorized when you entered the palace, so if you discuss it in vain, how can you not say much about the mourning family, and go to the court to receive the punishment by yourself!" As soon as he spoke, Shangguan Youhao wanted to brush his sleeves away.
Xu Pingjun stopped in the palace maid's constant begging for mercy, "The Empress Dowager, they don't have the intention to do it, how about sparing it for the time being?" ”
Xu Pingjun opened his mouth to beg for mercy, and he was surprised not only by the palace maid kneeling on the ground, but also by Shangguan's incomprehension, "Xu Jieyu is elegant, and she is not grateful!" "After all, when you enter the palace, you have already recovered your appearance after a moment, if it weren't for the fact that these three people were involved in Xu Pingjun and Huo Mansion, Shangguan Youhao would not talk about the strict rules of the palace, one, Xu Pingjun opened his mouth, and he couldn't save her face; Second, there is already a lot of blood in the palace, so why bother adding three more lives in vain. Although Shangguan Youhao has been in the palace for a long time, his heart is still unsettled.
"No, Empress Dowager Xie, thank you Jieyu!" The tears have been spent, and they keep kowtowing to thank them, they look like this, Xu Pingjun couldn't bear to see it, and actually bent down to help each other, which made the three of them grateful, when did they receive such grace from their masters, if Xu Pingjun did not open his mouth today, he was afraid that his life would not be guaranteed, so he felt a little more sorry for this new Jieyu.
Shangguan Youyu returned to Changle Palace, his face was a little more worried, "Empress Dowager, rest early, don't be tired." The big palace maid beside her said as she put on a cloak for her under the moon.
The cold moonlight shrouded the people who looked up at the moon, and Shangguan Yu gathered the cloak on his shoulders, "Song Wan, what do you think of Your Majesty and Xu Jieyu, and what about Eighth Miss?" "Song Wan is the one who entered the palace with Shangguan Youhao, and because of the rebellion of the Shangguan family, there are only two of them left, and now, she is the only one who can speak.
"Although Xu Jieyu was born in the people, she is an excellent person, and she has a deep relationship with Your Majesty, and the palace says that Your Majesty and Xu Jieyu are very compatible; Miss Eight was born in the Hou Mansion, she is unspeakably expensive, but she is also a peaceful person, but the Empress Dowager is worried about Mrs. Huo's words? When Huo Xian was looking for Shangguan Youhao, he didn't shy away from anyone, and when Song Wan heard Shangguan Youhao ask, he thought of the connection between the two.
Shangguan Youhao moved to the room and sat quietly on the edge of the bed, "If Chengjun can enter the palace, it will be a good thing for me and the Huo family, but Xu Jieyu and Your Majesty are in love, but I am afraid that after entering the palace, I may not be able to win Your Majesty's favor." "If Huo Chengjun becomes the master of this harem, the status of the Huo family will be more stable, and he will have more to rely on in this harem.
"Since Mrs. Huo wants to arrange it like this, the master depends on her, what will happen in the future, it can only depend on the order of the eighth lady, why should the master be difficult for himself for these things?" At that time, Huo Xian was just a maid to dowry, but after Shangguan Youhao's grandmother passed away, she became Mrs. Huo, so the master and servant were not close to Huo Xian.
Shangguan Youhao nodded lightly, she couldn't help herself in many things, but she didn't want to pull Huo Chengjun together, but how could she call the shots?
Xu Pingjun's large number of days in the palace have been spread, and Liu Yao, who is always concerned about Xu Pingjun, has also learned the ins and outs of the matter, and when he is pleased with Xu Pingjun's tolerance, he can't help but feel aggrieved for her mother and son, how can a wife who shares weal and woe with him become a third-class concubine?
And the words of those palace maids are not all true, at least the ministers of the DPRK and the central government have hinted intentionally or unintentionally that the daughter of the Huo family should be the queen, but Liu Yi has been pretending to be stupid and bypassing this remark, and now that he heard the words, he decided to let Xu Pingjun ascend to the throne as soon as possible.
"Pingjun, I haven't been able to crown you as the queen so far, I have wronged you, it's hard for you to still have such elegance, you are really a good wife." After entering the palace, Xu Pingjun never mentioned the posterior, she accepted what Liu Ai had given her, and she still cared about Liu Ai as always, and did not change the way the two got along with each other because of the change in status.
did not let Liu Ill have been embarrassed, and he endured everything silently, such Xu Pingjun made Liu Ill unmoved; is also like this, so that Liu Yi already feels at home in the Liangbo Deep Palace, with her, Liu Yi already has endless warmth and warmth.
"I'm sick, I know your heart, I believe in your heart, it's okay, if even I am like those people, what should you do?" For Xu Pingjun, she is just Liu's wife, she just wants to take care of her husband and children, he is rich and noble, and he will not abandon or leave, and she is already satisfied.
