Bao Xi sat on the table in the center of the hall, her white dress reached the ground, her hair was loosely tied together, there were a few green silks falling in her ears, and she turned into golden hair under the sunshine, she was drinking tea in the cup, this is the new tea of this year from the Chu State, the color is bright, and the fragrance is long-lasting and long. [No pop-ups. She looks as graceful and elegant as she did two years ago, but time has passed, and no one can go back to the past.
The corners of Bao Xi's mouth pursed slightly, put down the tea set in his hand, turned to look at Xiong Ning who entered the hall, stretched out his hand, and motioned for her to sit opposite him, the hall was empty, only Bao Xi and Xiong Yi were opposite, Xiong Yi was dressed in black and formed a very sharp contrast with Bao Xi, "I heard the king say, this trip to Dongyi is extremely dangerous, fortunately you saved his life." ”
"I went out of the palace that day to follow him," Xiong Ning looked at Bao Xi and said, smiling very delicately, as bright as a girl, bright and bright to sting this not glamorous Great Zhou harem, but Bao Xi's expression barely changed, "It can be regarded as the king of God, if he hadn't ordered the harem girl to leave the palace that day, there would not have been a move by you to save him later." ”
"It's my credit, but in Niangniang's mouth, I have become a king wise," Xiong Ning leaned forward, "If you can't use it for yourself, Niangniang is really a woman who can't be kept!" ”
"You have been in Beijing with the king for many days, it is always inconvenient to live in the Chuhou Mansion, Mrs. Qin's Youyang Palace will be cleaned up later, so you will live in the palace first, right?" There have been a lot of affairs lately, and the edict will naturally be issued later. Bao Xi didn't answer Xiong Ning's words, and commanded Xiong Ning in the tone of the master of the harem.
"Youyang Palace?" Xiong Ning glanced at Bao Xi, she didn't know if Ji Gongyan had told Bao Xi about Jiang Huachen's past, and asked tentatively, "I want to live in Huachen Palace?" Since I came out of Huachen Palace, I will finally be familiar with it when I go back. ”
"It is precisely because you came out of Huachen Hall that it is inconvenient to go back like this!" Bao Xi said.
"Do you know who I am?" Xiong Ning asked, Bao Xi looked at Xiong Ning and waited for her to continue, Xiong Ning smiled, "Do you know who I was before I became Concubine Lu?" ”
"Jiang Huachen." Bao Xi replied.
Xiong Ning's expression stiffened for a moment, she couldn't imagine that Ji Gongyan really dared to talk to Bao Xi about it, which also showed that there was nothing to hide between the two of them, "How can he tell you?" ”
Bao Xi looked at Xiong Ning and didn't answer, but just looked at her with his eyes, as if he was asking again, what do you want him to say to me? Xiong Ning was a little panicked when he was looked at by Bao Xi, "He must tell you that Jiang Huachen was buried in the royal tomb after his death, but I was able to escape and enter this palace instead of the woman who was presented by Lu Guojin, right?" ”
Bao Xi nodded, picked up the tea on the table again, and took a slight sip.
"He said he didn't know anything, right?" Xiong Ning asked, Bao Xi didn't answer this time, and put all her attention on the cup of new tea, as if she was not interested in Xiong Ning's topic at all, Xiong Ning snorted coldly and continued, "Do you think it's possible?" ”
"Why can't it?" Bao Xi asked aloud.
"What is the royal tomb? Once a person is buried in it, it is impossible to escape from the stone gate blockade forever; If Lu Guo is a woman, how can the king not be blind to it, and he will not notice my entry into the palace; When the king left the palace, he ordered the release of the woman who was unwilling to stay in the palace, and I was able to save the king's life because of this, does the mother think this is just a coincidence? Xiong Ning asked.
"So what?" Bao Xi asked.
Xiong Ning replied, "It seems that the king is going to attack Dongyi, but in fact, he wants to get rid of Qin Hou and Lady Qin, and take the power of Qin into his own hands. I hid the snow before, just to prevent Mrs. Qin from noticing, to help me escape, I can take the son of Mrs. Qin's womb, if it is not for his consent, how can Niang Niang think I have such courage? I take responsibility for nothing more than the king on behalf of the king, for him, no matter when, the real confidant is only me, these years in the harem he loves more women, come and go, a few years of spring and autumn, the only thing that can not be forgotten is me. Niangniang used to sleep, she should know that the king has been happy for a long time, right? It's because the woman under me is not the love of my heart, only I can solve this puzzle. ”
"So what?" Bao Xi asked again.
"He owes you, but he loves me!" Xiong Ning said.
Bao Xi stood up and looked down at Xiong Ning who was sitting on the chair and said, "Then congratulations to Mrs. Chu." ”
"You don't feel anything about that?" Xiong Ning asked in surprise, as if he couldn't imagine that Bao Xi would be so calm.
"How should I feel?" Bao Xi asked, looking at Xiong Ning suspiciously.
Xiong Ning was stunned for a moment, then suddenly calmed down again, and actually laughed, "Niangniang was sacrificed into the capital by her brother, and in order to save Zheng Boyou's life, she did not hesitate to go to the Qin Mansion to seek death, I almost forgot, Niangniang may have never really loved the king." When you were seriously ill and unconscious, I took the pulse of my mother, and you were bent on dying because it was difficult to wake up, so what is the thing that makes you bent on dying? As the concubine of the king, but fell in love with someone else, right? ”
"Mrs. Chu thinks that when you hear your words, how should the palace react?" Bao Xi asked.
"If you love someone, you won't be so calm at this moment!" Xiong Ning said, but Bao Xi smiled, "Does Mrs. Chu think that if this palace loves the king, she should be hysterical and angry at this moment?" ”
"If you love someone, you want to possess all of them." Xiong Ning said as a matter of course.
Bao Xi looked at Xiong Ning and nodded, "If the king doesn't borrow my hand to get rid of you, or borrow your hand to get rid of me, who would he want to die more for the two of us?" She sighed, shook her head, turned around and walked towards the dormitory, leaving Xiong Ning to stay where she was, her hands clenched tightly together, her chest kept rising and falling, even though she didn't know whether what she said was true or false, but she was clear that for her, love is possession, and she will do whatever it takes to get rid of all the people around her.
So for Bao Xi, only by getting rid of the dangerous Xiong Ning can he save his life in the harem.
In the fight between the two of them, there must be one who is going to die, who does Ji Gongyan want to die, although the obedient Bao Xi seems to know, but Xiong Ning, who speaks, is very clear. She didn't understand why Ji Gongyan didn't want to let go of herself who could make any sacrifice for him, but chose a concubine who didn't love her at all?
And in fact, who knows if there is only one gesture in love?
The people came back and said that Mrs. Chu had left the Xiande Hall angrily, and the new person who was given Bao Xi was called Huan Ying, and asked Bao Xi, "Does Niang Niang have any other instructions?" ”
"Come with me to Youyang Palace." Bao Xi said, stood up and walked towards the outside of the Xiande Palace, Huanying followed behind Bao Xi, changed from walking to running, caught up with her hurried steps, and asked cautiously behind her, "When Mrs. Chu left, she seemed to be very unhappy, but what did Niang Niang say to Mrs. Chu?" ”
Bao Xi turned around and glanced at Huanying, did not answer and continued to walk forward, Huanying probably knew that he had said the wrong thing, lowered his head and did not make a sound to follow Bao Xi to Youyang Palace, now Bao Xi was named the queen The whole pickaxe capital knows, several women in Youyang Palace saw Bao Xi and naturally paid a polite respect, "I have been saying that I want to go to the palace to see Niangniang, but the king forbids the concubines to go, and I ask Niangniang to forgive me." ”
"A few days ago, the palace was unconscious, and I was tired of a few people." Bao Xi nodded slightly and said.
"Now that the mother is well, why don't you reopen the morning ceremony of the harem? There should always be someone in charge in this harem, otherwise we will all be up and down in our hearts! A concubine in Youyang Palace said, the meaning in this is not that the harem is so simple, and the deeper meaning is that there is no lady in Youyang Palace, and it is not a matter of always hanging like this and not making a decision. This matter can decide the fate of all the concubines with a single sentence, and everyone is staring at her decision with eager eyes.
"The body of the palace has not recovered yet, so the morning ceremony is temporarily exempted, right?" Bao Xi said, "There will naturally be a master in Youyang Palace after a while, so you don't have to worry." ”
"What?" Several concubines looked at each other, "Niangniang means that the king has newly married a lady?" ”
"Chu Hou's sister, Mrs. Chu." Bao Xi said, and then ordered, "Clean up Mrs. Qin's room, Mrs. Qin's things will be dealt with later." That is, in the past two days, Mrs. Chu has to move in. ”
"Yes!" Several concubines are no longer as excited as when Bao Xi entered the door just now, each of them is not good, Bao Xi commanded a few more words, and a few of them also replied stupidly, so that the idea of being a wife was shattered again, that is, in this harem, it is not possible to be favored and be able to gain power, at least it is good, now watching this opportunity slip away from their faces, several of them are naturally angry in their hearts, "The position of Mrs. has been vacant in Huachen Hall for three years, why is Niang Niang not arranged?" One of the concubines asked.
"The king will ask for marriage soon, so don't worry." Bao Xi said, and he had roughly guessed in his heart who the king would be. As soon as these words came out, several people looked at each other for a while, and they were silent and stopped talking. Bao Xi turned around and left from Youyang Palace, and Huan Ying asked at Bao Xi's side, "Niangniang?" The king still asks to marry a wife? ”
"Huachen Hall shouldn't be empty all the time." Bao Xi nodded.
"Who is the king asking to marry?" Huanying asked, Bao Xi looked at Huanying and looked at her for a long time, she was the old daughter of Xiande Palace, because Ji Gongyan rarely went back to his palace to spend the night, but he was afraid that he was not familiar with the people in his palace, this Huanying's words were inevitably too much, Huanying realized something, lowered his head and took two steps back, "Please don't blame Niangniang, Huanying just didn't want to ask." ”
