Chapter 29 Snow is beautiful, and people are also beautiful
What?
What did they hear?
The emperor didn't say that he wanted to kill their heads, but he said that he could put that woman in the future.
Oh my God! Is it too afraid of death, so you have hallucinations?
Therefore, although the two guards heard this, they couldn't accept it for a while, and they didn't dare to get up from the ground, but they kept confirming with each other: "Is this true?" ”
"I don't know."
"What did you just hear?"
"I didn't say anything about us, I just said that we could put that woman in the future."
"So we're really saving our heads?"
"Perhaps......
When they raised their heads again, Ling Tiancheng was gone, leaving only a string of his footprints in the snow, mixed with the traces that Zhuang Siyan had stepped on before.
One big and one small, in the vast white snow, it turned out to be very harmonious.
When Zhuang Siyan returned to the cold palace, her frozen little hands were red, and Lan Xin was busy bringing her a brazier and a cup of hot tea.
"Miss, where have you been, for so long a day, there is no letter at all, I am dying."
Zhuang Siyan glanced at her: "What are you anxious about?" Didn't you say you were going to enjoy the snow? It's a reward, of course, you have to look at it slowly, otherwise how can you appreciate the rhyme, right? ”
That's right, but she is always uneasy in her heart, and always feels that the young lady is not just going to enjoy the snow, but to do something else, but she doesn't know what to do.
Zhuang Siyan warmed up in the house for a while, and had lunch again, but he was really interested in appreciating the snow, so he discussed with Lan Xin and them, do you want to go to the imperial garden?
Of course, the palace people are willing to go out, and it is an incomparably glorious thing to be able to follow a favored master in the palace, who can't give up three points when they see it?
So Zhuang Siyan only left two little eunuchs to guard the door, and the others followed her all the way to the imperial garden.
The cold palace is not far from the imperial garden, and there are already palace people who have begun to clear the snow at this time, although the sky is still falling, but there is a lot less ground on the road.
The group entered the garden in a short time.
Maybe it's for the sake of the scene, there is a vast white area here, and the branches on the trees are like pulling strings of silver-white long whips, crystal clear, so beautiful.
The flowers and plants of holly are also covered with a thick layer, and some of them are bent down, and only occasionally through the cracks can you find a touch of emerald green.
There were no footprints on the flower path, Zhuang Siyan and the others were considered to have caught up with the first one, and a group of people who were full of fun began to play with snowballs while walking.
From afar, you can see plum blossoms blooming in the corner of the wall, and the faint fragrance is from far to near, soaking into the heart and spleen.
Zhuang Siyan is also a girl, of course she also loves flowers, but she especially hates large clusters of flowers, especially if the fragrance of flowers is stronger, she will feel that she has difficulty breathing.
On the contrary, like this kind of plum in the snow, a few beads are scattered in the corner of the wall, which is very elegant.
She took a hard breath of the coolness of the snow and the fragrance of the flowers, and felt refreshed.
What a great time!
"Hmph, I don't know how to make poetry, just shut up, it's a good time, think it's in a farmhouse? It's a laughing death. Several women's voices said not far away.
Zhuang Siyan didn't have to look back, he knew that it was those long-tongued women in the palace.
They're so everywhere, and they're all over the place!
Everyone is here to play, you play yours, I play mine, and it doesn't get in the way of your business, why do I sigh and take it out to talk about it? Sick?
But most people in this world don't think like that.
They will see that no one is happy, only they are invincible in the world, and they are often complacent, and they take pleasure in harming others.
A palace concubine couldn't help but recite the poem: "There are a few plums in the corner, and Ling Han opens it alone." I know that it is not snow, and the taste has a dark fragrance. ”
Burst! I'll go, what kind of big head do you take Wang Anshi's poems?
Zhuang Siyan rolled his eyes, and finally turned around, looked at the women who were dressed up and pressed down the plum blossoms, and said, "I thought you could make such a great poem, it turned out that you were reading someone else's, can you have some interest?" ”
The leader was a concubine, and when she heard this, her face suddenly sank: "Bold, which palace are you in, you didn't bow when you saw this palace, and you are still making a lot of nonsense here." ”
Zhuang Siyan wanted to grab a handful of snow and sprinkle it on her face, but as soon as her eyes flickered, she gave up this behavior, and said lightly: "Leng Gong, anyway, there is only one way to die for me, or you will fight with me here today, if you win the battle, maybe the emperor will have a reward, if you lose, then you will go down to Huangquan in advance to wait for me, okay?" ”
When the concubine heard this, her face was red with anger and her neck was thick.
What is she, to fight with Hongu?
Hmph, do you still have to do it in the fight? This group of palace people, if she doesn't beat this thing that doesn't know whether she lives or dies, how will she gain a foothold in the palace in the future? Even those who came out of a cold palace dared to shout.
It's no wonder that Concubine Zhen is angry, she is the earliest palace concubine to follow Ling Tiancheng.
When Ling Tiancheng was a teenager and a prince, once his concubine accidentally saw him riding a horse and shooting arrows, and he already showed the demeanor of a mature man, and she fell in love at that time.
At that time, her grandfather was still there, and he was the master of Zhengyipin, and he had a lot of right to speak in the court, so he asked the emperor for marriage.
Ling Tiancheng didn't say anything, and seemed to be happy with this marriage.
But since the two got married, they have never slept together, let alone anything like that.
He has changed from a prince to an emperor, for so many years, there have been so many people in the palace, there are so many new and old people, and the snobbery of the concubine's family has also fallen, and no one takes her in her eyes anymore.
Ling Tiancheng didn't even look at her, as if he had forgotten her.
This concubine was sealed when the emperor ascended the throne, and it has never been touched since.
Now there are four people on the concubine position, all of whom are newcomers who have only entered the palace in the past two years, and those who were in the palace with her in the early years will reach the concubine position as long as they live.
For the concubines who are higher than her and favored, the concubine has nothing to say, after all, the harem is such a place.
But what kind of thing is such a waste in a cold palace?
The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and she really ordered her palace people to go up and beat Zhuang Siyan.
Fortunately, Jing Guiren, who came with her, persuaded her: "Sister, don't be impatient, I see that she looks arrogant, isn't she the Zhuang talent who is often said in the palace recently."
Although she lives in the cold palace now, the emperor is very conniving with her, so let's not cause trouble. ”
Jing Guiren's situation is similar to that of the concubine, the difference is that she entered the palace later than the concubine, and she is less courageous.
They have all heard about Zhuang Siyan, but as an unfavored concubine, they actually know only a limited amount of things.
For example, the current concubine, she doesn't think Zhuang Siyan is very powerful, but she knows that her father is a traitor.
So I didn't care about Jing Guiren's words at all: "What kind of storm can a traitor's daughter make, if the emperor really favors her, he won't let her live in the cold palace."
A few of you, go and pull that woman over for me, I want to see how capable she is, and she can hook up with the emperor when she enters the cold palace. ”
Zhuang Siyan watched the two women muttering for a long time, and finally called the palace people to come to him with an angry face, and he already knew roughly what was going on.
She's really not afraid of fighting.
The women in this group of harems are at best an embroidered pillow, even those palace maids and eunuchs are just a lot of power.
It's just that she has already dealt with two women before, so she can't always make enemies.
No matter how confident and arrogant she is, she also knows that it is easy to walk when she has more friends, and there are more enemies who are dying.
This woman looks pitiful, but she is still ruthless, but she can use it.
So she didn't rush to fight, but said to a palace person behind her: "If you go to the Queen Mother's Palace, you will say that I will invite her to come to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the snow, not only the snow is beautiful here, but the people are also beautiful, so she must come." ”
The palace maid received her order and muttered all the way.
Is their master stupid to invite the queen mother?
Even if she has a little grace now, but the Empress Dowager Na'an is the master of the harem, and the family is dominant, and the queen concubine can't hold on to her, hoping that one day she can fill the vacancy of the queen? Even if she wants to invite it, isn't it her who wants to invite it?
actually asked a little palace maid to invite, and I don't know if I can come back?
She only cared about her own life, but she bumped into Li Fu headlong.
Li Fu was aggrieved in the cold palace in the morning, and his anger had not yet come to his senses at this time, and during lunch, the emperor's mood was not very good, so he was even more depressed.
finally caught a free time and walked around, and was bumped by a little girl, raised her hand is a slap, and directly slapped the little palace maid into the snow.
"Something that doesn't have long eyes, is this a rush to reincarnate? Let's go, come with me to Xinzheku now, and let the people there teach you how to walk in the palace. ”
The palace maid was already frightened, crying loudly and begging for mercy, and in a hurry she pulled out the morning's events.
Li Fu's hand loosened: "What did you say?" ”
The maid's head was in the snow, and she shivered and said, "The snowball in the morning was thrown by the mother, she said...... She said, Mr. Li is in charge of the murder and wants to give it to you...... You have a little lesson ....... ”
"Wait a minute, are you someone from Zhuang Cairen's side?" Li Fu asked.
The palace maid nodded like pounding garlic, and planted a hole in the snow: "Yes, yes, the slave and maid have just been separated, and they don't know anything, so please let me go." ”
Of course you have to let it go, this Zhuang talent doesn't look out of tune, but he is really a master who has revenge, Li Fu has already offended her once, and he doesn't want to come again before she falls out of favor.
So he deliberately patted the snow on his body and said, "Then what are you doing here if you don't follow your master?" ”
"The slave is here to invite ...... Please the queen mother, Zhuang Niangniang said ......, she said that the snow in the imperial garden is very beautiful, and the people are also very good, so she ....... ”
Well, Li Fu understood.
If he doesn't seize the opportunity to perform like this, what are he waiting for?
pulled the palace maid up from the ground and rewarded her with two coins: "Go back, just tell the mother that you have been notified." ”
The little palace maid didn't want to go, but now she was beaten again, so she naturally wanted to go back, and if she got it, she ran to the cold palace and didn't go to the imperial garden to find Zhuang Siyan.
Li Fu rushed to Ling Tiancheng non-stop: "Your Majesty, Zhuang Niangniang seems to have encountered some trouble in the Imperial Garden. ”
