"How many times did the emperor ask his concubines to say it, but there was only this one sentence, and Hou Lu's affairs had nothing to do with the concubines. If the emperor doesn't believe it, he can call Princess Yongping to confront his concubines again! The queen's voice was cold.

The emperor snorted and said, "Yongping is only sixteen, what can she understand?" ”

The queen's slender and good-looking phoenix eyebrows raised, and said: "Here in the emperor, I naturally feel that the princess is young and innocent, and the concubine is more than half a hundred years old, and she is a femme fatale who has been in the harem for many years." Since the emperor already has the answer in his heart, why should he repeatedly warn and force his concubines to ask? But there is a yes, and there is no is nothing. The emperor is only sad and has no evidence now, but has the emperor thought about it carefully? Where did the evidence come from? Although her expression was strong and firm, her eyes were full of aggrieved helplessness.

The emperor's eyes showed great disgust, a pair of bright eyes, and he couldn't dig out the queen's heart to see it really clear and thorough.

"The queen has always been able to speak, so I naturally can't talk about you. But how this incident came about, the queen naturally knows best. ”

The queen turned her back to the emperor, smiled bitterly, sat down tiredly, and said: "The concubine also hopes that she knows in her heart, and can see the emperor's heart clearly like the concubine." But the concubine has grown a mouth for many years, and only this mouth is powerful. The queen said, sad tears poured up, and she didn't dare to look directly at the emperor, but said: "Now the concubine only asks the emperor one sentence, does the emperor really believe in the words of Hou Lu and Mrs. Hou Lu?" Because Hou Lu and Li Guifei's family had some origins, the emperor turned a blind eye to what he did, and even connived at him to still be a disaster for the people of Yangzhou Mansion and the people of Lianghuai! ”

"Empress," the emperor's voice said, his hands clenched tightly into his fists, and said, "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics!" ”

The queen sneered, "What the emperor said is that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. But, Concubine Li Guifei can, Princess Yongping can. The six princes themselves talked nonsense in the palace, and in the end, the emperor still had to blame my son. Also, our mother and son are wrong in front of the emperor, it's all wrong......" The queen said later, her voice filled with irrepressible trembling.

The emperor's eyes were deep, and he quietly waited for the queen to finish speaking, and finally said indifferently: "Don't forget, queen, what will happen after the abolition of the previous dynasty." The emperor turned around and said as he walked: "After passing the decree, the queen suddenly contracted a vicious illness and ordered the five princes and Song Zhao to escort the queen back to Beijing." ”

When the queen heard this, her body trembled, and she collapsed directly in the chair, trembling with anger. When the emperor went out, the five princes who were stopped outside were finally able to come in.

The fifth prince, Xiao Che, entered the door and saw that the queen's face was as white as paper, so frightened that he knelt on the ground with a puff and cried: "The queen mother, the queen mother, it's all the fault of the sons!" It's all because Erchen asked Hou Lu to secretly investigate, so that his mother was misunderstood by the emperor. ”

Song Zhao followed the five princes into the door, and when he saw the queen's weak grief look, he couldn't bear it, and knelt down with the five princes and said, "Auntie, it's all my nephew's fault." If your nephew is nosy, you punish your nephew! ”

The queen closed her eyes, and a large teardrop rolled down one cheek. She has had enough of these 30 years of grievances. She only had this moment of weakness, and soon regained her spirits, sat up and let the five princes and Song Zhao get up, and said: "It's nothing, we people are an eyesore in front of the emperor all day long, it is better to return to Beijing as soon as possible, and we are all at ease in both times." Go back and pack up, let's leave for Beijing early tomorrow morning. ”

Song Zhao was both sorry and unwilling in his heart, and when he went out with the fifth prince, he couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Why did you suddenly startle the snake?" ”

The fifth prince smiled coldly, "Since the concubine is aware of it, otherwise how can she startle the snake." After Yongping and Xiao Jun sang a double reed, the disaster led to the queen mother; The concubine and others slapped Mrs. Fengguo, and then gave a sweet date to buy people's hearts; kicked Hou Lu out of the game without hurting his muscles and bones; Killing three birds with one stone. ”

Song Zhao's expression was dark for a moment, and he was silent for a long time, then suddenly turned around and said, "I still have some things to deal with, Your Highness should go first." ”

The fifth prince turned his head and reminded him: "After this incident, Mrs. Fengguo will definitely strictly guard the courtyard, can you still enter?" ”

Song Zhao only smiled and did not respond to the words of the fifth prince, and after separating from him, Song Lin stepped forward and whispered to Song Zhao: "Mrs. Fengguo is angry, I can't hear clearly on the roof, and the girl Shen on the left and right doesn't have a good face." ”

Song Zhao sighed in a low voice and said, "You go back and clean up, we will go back to Beijing early tomorrow morning." As he spoke, he had taken three steps and made two steps, and naturally wanted to recruit a child to climb over the wall and enter the inner courtyard to find a clear face.

The lights had been turned off in Qingrong's room, leaving only Fucui to keep vigil outside. She stared at the top of the tent, not sleepy, and listened carefully to the movement outside.

I don't know how long later, when she heard a "click" sound, she subconsciously sat up from the bed and looked at the window. Sure enough, the window was opened very lightly and slowly, and Song Zhao's good-looking face emerged from behind the window. Qingrong's heart tightened, but he didn't make any sound, and only beckoned Song Zhao to enter the door.

Qingrong casually pulled the coat on the side of the bed and put it on, and Song Zhao softly closed the window.

"You're going to kill me!" Qingrong's voice was extremely soft, for fear of alarming Mrs. Fengguo, "Did you send someone to spy on me, and also told Princess Yongping about my acceptance of Mrs. Hou's gift, so that she could get the stolen goods!" ”

Song Zhao didn't know how to explain, he did send someone to keep an eye on Qingrong, and he did know that Mrs. Hou gave Qingrong a very heavy gift, and he originally wanted to use the topic to play. But he didn't want Princess Yongping to reveal this matter at all, after all, Hou Lu played a pivotal role in Lianghuai.

Qingrong saw that Song Zhao didn't speak, his heart was cold, and he immediately said: "I originally thought that you were just annoying, but I didn't expect to be so insidious and vicious!" ”

"What are you guessing!" Song Zhao reacted greatly, pulled Qingrong's coat with his hand, and forced her to sit on the edge of the bed with him, the two of them stood shoulder to shoulder, and whispered: "I did send someone to spy on you, and I do know that Mrs. Hou gave you a big gift." However, I didn't want Princess Yongping to know about it. Hou Lu has a cat in Yangzhou, these are what I and the five princes know, but I can't find out why, I originally wanted to take advantage of Mrs. Hou's gift to you to check, but before I could do it, I was moved by the concubine. ”

Qingrong was a little surprised, not knowing whether to believe Song Zhao's words, she stared at him hesitantly, her heart was full of speculation.

Song Zhao said: "Now because of this incident, the emperor misunderstood that the queen was making a hindrance and calculated Li Guifei behind his back. I had a big quarrel with my aunt and ordered me and the five princes to escort the queen back to Beijing in the morning. ”

Qingrong was even more shocked, "Back to Beijing? This, how many does it mean? ”

Song Zhao laughed sneeringly, and sighed slightly: "It's not a day or two that the emperor doesn't like the queen, and now the external rhetoric is infected, which can be regarded as saving face for the queen." ”

Qingrong's heart was weak and complicated, and he asked Song Zhao for a while, "Then you will go back to the capital tomorrow?" ”

Song Zhao said helplessly: "Because I am nosy and involved in you, I'm afraid that I will honestly go back to Beijing to stay for a while." When Song Zhao said this, he reluctantly raised his eyebrows and looked at Qingrong and said, "What's the matter, when you hear that I will leave tomorrow, I can't bear it?" ”

Qingrong rolled her eyes and took a sip, "Phew! I can't give up anyone, and I won't give you up! Now I've told you all this, but I don't believe you! My grandmother said, "Let me stay away from you from now on!" ”

Song Zhao looked at Qingrong with a smile, and said confidently: "But you believe me, otherwise you would have called out a long time ago and let people come and arrest me." ”

Qingrong seemed to be told by Song Zhao, so he turned his face away and said stiffly: "That's just for my own reputation." ”

Knowing that it was not Song Zhao who was so calculating and using it, Qingrong felt a little better in his heart. After all, he felt that Song Zhao was a bastard and a bastard, but there was still a long way to go from being a bad guy!

"Actually, even if you are with Mrs. Fengguo now, you still have to consider marrying in two years. What's more, now Mrs. Fengguo may not really treat you as her own. We've been friends for a long time, and I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, I will never treat you like the emperor treats you like the queen. If you marry me, I will treat you well, seriously! I do what I say! Song Zhao's eyes were very sincere.

Qingrong let out a "poof" and laughed out unseemly, "Should you bring home a daughter or a sister?" ”

Song Zhao couldn't answer for a while.

Qingrong said: "Song Zhao, I am also a human being, I am happy with each other, and I also want love between life and death." Once upon a time, the situation was precarious, and I had to live first. But now my life is not threatened, it is just a difference between good and bad life. So my pursuit in life is higher, no matter what, I want to get what I want. ”

Song Zhao listened carefully to Qingrong's words, and this thirteen-year-old girl seemed to be more than twenty years old. I couldn't say anything at first hearing this, but the more carefully Song Zhao tasted it, the more he felt that he still underestimated her. He immediately smiled, raised his hand and touched Shen Qingrong's head, feeling embarrassed.

"Many people live in the world, confused, afraid that they don't know what they want in this life for the rest of their lives. You know it at such a young age, and you don't know whether it's good or bad. Forget it, I can only say that you and I have no chance. I'm leaving. Song Zhao said that he got up to say goodbye to Qingrong, but there was a slight reluctance in his heart.

Originally, he didn't come to say this to Qingrong, but he was afraid that Mrs. Fengguo would have any misunderstanding about the queen, so he wanted to explain it to Qingrong clearly, and he also helped the queen explain it clearly.

Qingrong breathed a long sigh of relief, now she can finally get rid of this enemy, she feels a little relaxed, but there is a faint indescribable emptiness, she only smiled and said to Song Zhao: "Have a good trip!" ”

Song Zhao nodded reluctantly, "Be careful of Concubine Li's side," after saying that, he quickly turned around and jumped out of the window.

Early in the morning of the second day, just after dawn, the team escorting the queen set off from Yangzhou Wharf to return to the capital. The queen left in such a hurry that she didn't even have time to say goodbye to the queen mother.

Within two days, the Yangzhou Mansion knew that the queen was angry with Tianwei and was sent back to the scriptures.

The holy car was delayed in Yangzhou for seven or eight days, and then went south to Dengzhou, and there was no queen on this way, leaving only Li Guifei alone. The emperor and the concubine love to sprinkle dog food, and they don't mention it.

Because Princess Yongping was warned, there were no more moths, and Qingrong presented the future whimsy for the Queen Mother every day, and the days were moist and calm. Under the queen mother's happy reward, she made a small windfall.

In this way, I arrived at Suzhou Mansion safely and steadily.

When the holy car arrived, it was naturally no different from going to Yangzhou, Zhenjiang, and Changzhou, all of which were picked up by local officials, and another woman came to meet the queen mother, concubine and others.

This time to meet with the wife, Qingrong was also allowed to attend with Mrs. Fengguo and see the world. Who knew that Qingrong had seen a big world for the first time, and it could be said that it was the first rare thing since the opening of the beam.
