Chapter 36: Shangguan (4)

Libi Tuoba Hong stretched out his hand to help her up, and the emperor and queen shook their hands. Tuoba Hong's face was full of affection, and he sighed: "Lili, it's been three years, do you know how much I miss you." I haven't seen you for three years, and your appearance hasn't changed at all, and you are still like this, captivating the country and the city. ”

"The concubines are thinking about the emperor, so they don't dare to change." Shangguan Li was still smiling. There may be hazy tears in her eyes, and Lin Yuan can't see them when she stands behind her.

Saying that, she turned around, her eyes swept over the faces of the concubines one by one, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for three years, and this palace also misses the sisters of the harem very much." Are you all well? ”

Concubine Jing hurriedly led everyone in unison and said, "Everything is fine." He raised his head. However, it didn't matter what she looked at, but she saw Empress Shangguan's white jade-like face, her eyebrows were picturesque, her lips were like dan, and there were eyeliner flying high into her hair at the corners of her phoenix eyes.

Concubine Jing almost gasped. It's been eight years, and the nightmare of that year has become a reality again...... The woman who shocked and frightened her from the first time she saw her back then, her stunning appearance was the same as before, and even because of the queen's phoenix crown and her noble body, she showed no one else to compare with her beauty.

If I remember correctly, Shangguan Li was only three years younger than her, and now she is also a twenty-three-year-old girl. The mother of three sons is no longer young. However, she looked even more agile than Hui Zhaoyuan, who was only eighteen years old behind her.

When I first saw Shangguan Li, she was just a show girl who was titled as Liangdi. At that time, I was still a noble concubine, but I was just thinking, how could there be such a good-looking person in the world.

Later, just over a year later, she gave birth to a stillborn baby and fell asleep, and it was another five years. When she woke up from a serious illness, Shangguan Li had already become the concubine of the harem, and her position was higher than herself. She secretly hid in Huayang Palace and continued to complain about her illness, spying on the situation in the harem, but she never dared to ......

I didn't dare to look at Concubine Xiang's face again.

Sure enough, it can't be avoided. She thought that Concubine Xiang had already left the palace, and she was annoyed that the emperor was kicked out of the palace and would never come back. In the harem, she gradually forgot her stunning face.

But God won't let her go. Now she has to face this face again, and every day from now on, she has to go to the queen to say goodbye, and at the same time look at this face to live.

Her panic was only for a moment. When she endured the heart-like pain in her ant-eating heart and turned her gaze to the queen's face again, she poked the tip of her index finger with the gilt jade-encrusted nail of her right middle finger.

The pain sobered herself, she went up and held the queen's arm, and said gently: "When the concubine recovered from her illness, it happened that you left the palace, and the concubine wanted to see you and couldn't see you. Concubine Jing said, and her already calm and elegant face became more and more respectful.

Lin Yuan looked at the side and pursed her lips. is really a woman who can tolerate and scheming, not long ago she had a dream of being a queen, and now she is subservient to others, so soon she can put down her status and be respectful.

Empress Shangguan obviously thought of a place with Lin Yuan. She hooked her lips and smiled, grabbed Concubine Jing's hand with one hand and said, "Sister Concubine Jing is really virtuous and humble, she should set an example for concubines!" ”

These words were originally praised, but Concubine Jing only felt that the other party was mocking her when she heard it.

Shangguan Li is the queen, and she is just a "concubine example", only matching the queen "humble".

Shangguan Li no longer looked at her, and looked sideways at the emperor and said: "I remembered that I drafted into the palace many years ago, and at that time I remembered that Sister Wei was very dignified and gentle, but unfortunately my sister got sick later...... Until the time I left the palace, I didn't see my sister recover, and I was always worried. It's okay now, my sister is standing in front of her, and it can be seen that she is in good condition. ”

The emperor looked at Shangguan Li's face with a gentle face, and smiled lightly. Concubine Jing hurriedly lowered her eyebrows and answered: "How can Concubine He De let the queen remember it." ”

Shangguan Li retracted his gaze and swept over the rest of the concubines around him. At a glance, seeing Lin Yuan holding a two-year-old boy in his hand, his smile suddenly thickened: "Sister Lin is becoming more and more beautiful, this is the emperor's favorite sixth prince, right?" ”

Lin Yuan raised her head to meet her gaze, took the six princes and asked him to salute Shangguan Li, and said with a smile: "Niang Niang praises." The six princes were born in the ninth year of Qianwu, although they are royal blood, but when it comes to the emperor's love, how dare the six princes be compared with the two princes of Qi and Chu from Niangniang. ”

When she said this, she didn't even move her brow. knew that there was a difference between the concubines, but they never felt sad, because the royal family is different from ordinary people's families, and the concubines are not the highest standard for the prince.

The monarchs of the Great Qin Dynasty have very few descendants.

Shangguan Li raised her eyebrows, and the woman of the Lin family still hasn't changed at all. She inadvertently looked away, unwilling to talk to Lin Yuan anymore.

While speaking, the third prince and the fourth prince were also led forward by the nurse. They were a year older than Tuoba Qi, and at this time, they wore indigo silver ratskin jackets and stepped forward in an orderly manner, without anyone around them, and knelt to kowtow to the emperor. Tuoba Hong was indebted to this pair of twins back then, and now when he saw the two young children looking like tiger-headed tiger-brained elves and cute, his heart turned into water in an instant, and he leaned over and hugged them in his arms.

"Which one is Zhang'er and which one is Jue'er? looks the same, I can't tell the difference. He asked in a trembling mood.

There were already concubines on the side who came up to greet Shangguan Li, and praised the two little princes with her with a smile. Chu Huashang listened to the emperor's words, smiled and asked, "Yes!" The two royal highnesses of the King of Qi and the King of Chu look as cute as the two golden boys sitting down in Guanyin, but they are exactly the same, and we don't know how to salute when we see them in the future. ”

"Yo, isn't this a concubine!" Shangguan Li looked sideways at her.

Chu Huashang has been sick for more than a month, and today in order to welcome the queen, he didn't dare to slack off, so he came with others. Although she was against Shangguan Li in the past, today she understands that she no longer dares to offend her identity, and she lowers her posture as soon as they meet.

Her injuries have been recuperated for more than a month, and they are almost healed, but the wound on her forehead is too deep, and even though she is nursed with good medicine, there is still a shallow scar.

Fortunately, the scar is on the hairline, and you can't see it when you comb your bangs.

But there are still flaws.

"You're still so pleasing to speak!" Shangguan Li looked at her and smiled: "You and the Lin family serve the emperor with all their hearts, and now they are both in high positions, which is also your blessing." ”

I have to say that even if Shangguan Li becomes a queen, she can't change the meanness in her bones. Chu Huashang had already lowered her head, she still didn't give up, and opened her mouth to talk about things.

Chu Huasheng's lips suddenly turned white.

When Shangguan Li left the palace three years ago, she was a concubine, and Lin Yuan was just a Jieyu at that time. Originally, he had an unlimited future, but unexpectedly, the matter of letting the snake and murdering the emperor's heir was revealed by Lin Yuan...... After that, he was relegated to Shendetang. Now that Lin Yuan is Zhaoyuan, she is still a concubine!

From day before yesterday, she wanted to compete with Lin Yuan for the position of concubine, but the terrible days of the year in Shende Hall shattered all her dreams. Now it seems to be a joke.

She stood in front of Shangguan Li in a daze, suppressing the sound of her breathing.

Shangguan Li pursed her lips and smiled, and said for a while: "I have been greeting for a long time, and the sisters have been tired for a long time in order to welcome the palace, why don't we go back to the palace first, and when you go to Changxin Palace in the future, I will tell you how to recognize these two, how about it?" After that, he took the emperor's hand and smiled: "When the time comes, you will come to Changxin Palace for the first time to greet me, we are all sisters, and we will get together together, and if you don't go, I won't tell her the difference between Zhang'er and Jue'er." ”

"That's right, Lili has worked hard all the way, I'll accompany you back to the palace first." Tuoba Hong said and held Shangguan Li's hand in one hand: "I sent you out of the palace that year, and I have always regretted it. The Changxin Palace has been repaired according to your preferences, and you can go with me to see it. ”

Shangguan Li's face swelled with infinite affection, and his cheeks were crimson and smiled: "The emperor is considerate, and the concubines are grateful." Yibi held the emperor's hand tightly, and walked towards the inner palace step by step with the emperor's steps, and countless concubines behind him hurriedly pulled their skirts to follow.

Step by step, he was only fourteen years old when he entered the palace, and it has been nine years in a blink of an eye...... From the show girl with a stunning face, to the concubine Xiang who calls for wind and rain and flies, to the concubine Changhe who angered the emperor and was driven out of the court and left only a false name, to the queen who stands side by side with him and overlooks all beings.

Daqing Gate, the first time in my life to walk through here.

Along the way, Tuoba Hong gently held her hand, and neither of them mentioned why they drove her out of the palace back then.

The palms of the hands are warm, but the hearts are a little cold. The sky slowly darkened, Shangguan Li tightened her coat, she knew that the emperor liked her, but this kind of liking ...... Why can he say such a thing as "remorse", obviously only because his father served on the battlefield to welcome himself back to the palace as the queen, as the emperor, where does he have a little remorse?

Although it is a successor, he has not returned to the palace yet, but he has already found an assistant concubine.

In order to prevent the two children of the third prince and the fourth prince, he wished that he would not come back for the rest of his life. It's a pity that in order to expand his ambitions, he weighed it again and again and made today's decision.

It's just the emperor's mental trick, and it has nothing to do with the side.

After a while, the two joined hands in Changxin Palace. Shangguan Li was tired all the way and needed to rest first, and the accompanying concubines were all dispersed by the emperor's order. Lin Yuan retired with everyone, and after returning to the palace, he sent the heavy gifts that had been prepared to the palace people to Changxin Palace, and passed on the instructions of the people in the palace: "The queen mother has just been canonized, we must all act respectfully, and no one is allowed to take Qiao in front of the palace people of Changxin Palace, do you know?" ”

And they all knelt on their knees and said yes. Lin Yuan knelt behind the Daqing Gate for two hours today, and at this time she was also tired, waved her hand to take a bath, and asked the Wang Xuan attendant of Huayang Palace to pinch her legs and serve her.

Nothing to say for a day.
