Chapter 36: The Oath

"No, no!" Sizhen shook her head desperately, she was just a thirteen-year-old girl, where had she seen these tricks in the palace, and she was forced by the Queen Mother step by step, and she couldn't help crying.

Thinking of the mother's teachings, even if she cried, she straightened her spine and maintained her only dignity, "The courtiers can't climb the emperor, and they will never enter the palace as a concubine in the future. ”

The Queen Mother sneered, "She is worthy of being the daughter of King Dingnan, and she has temperament!" You don't dare to gamble with your brother, how do you know if you are disobeying the yang and the yin? Since you said that you should be at the disposal of the mourning family, then kneel at the bottom of the porch, and when you figure it out, when you go back and forth to the mourning family. ”

She thought that after hearing this, Sizhen should be soft.

Unexpectedly, Sizhen just wiped her tears, then kowtowed to thank her, got up and went out with the palace maid, kneeling straight under the porch, looking like she would rather bend than bend.

After a long time, the palace maid had already changed the third cup of tea for the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother took the tea lid and flicked the floating leaves in the tea cup, and asked Su Mala thoughtfully, "Look, how is the child?" ”

Su Mala looked at the Queen Mother, hesitated for a moment and said, "The slave is a good child, reasonable, principled, although there is some sharpness, but you know how to advance and retreat, the Queen Mother, you have a unique eye, you have always loved this child, this is this, the slave and maid are a little confused!" ”

"Hey!" The Queen Mother sighed leisurely, "How many people who have stayed in this palace for a long time are not big-eyed and big-hearted?" Although she doesn't mean that now, how does she know what will happen in the future? If she remembers what she has received today, no matter what the emperor does in the future, she will not lose her bones, if she can't remember it......"

"There are many people who climb dragons and phoenixes, and the emperor will not be rare!"

Su Mala realized that the Queen Mother actually had this meaning inside, looked in the direction outside, and said softly: "It's almost an hour, it's freezing outside, and the slave maid is afraid that if it freezes for a long time, Zhen Gege will not be able to stand it, after all, this is just ...... raised."

The Queen Mother groaned, "Mourning the family, look at this child's hard bones, he can afford to suffer!" It's really embarrassing for her, she has been delicate and expensive since she was a child, she left her parents, and came to this imperial city, but she had to suffer such a toss, which is pitiful. She smiled self-deprecatingly, "It's just that the mourning family is reluctant to toss the emperor, so they can only take advantage of her, and they can't help her, you go and tell her to get up, let someone cook a bowl of ginger soup, and warm her body." ”

Su Mala nodded, and walked out after the arrangements were made, and saw the small figure of Sizhen kneeling straight and straight from a distance, sighed in his heart, walked over and said to her, "Get up, go in, and talk to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother loves you in ......her heart."

Sizhen raised her face when she heard this, at this time, she was already blue from the cold, her lips were purple, and she shivered, even so, she still tried to kowtow upright and said, "Thank you for your grace." ”

She wanted to stand up, but her frozen legs stiffened and she couldn't straighten up, so she struggled for a long time, and finally got up with the help of Su Mala.

Sizhen looked at Su Mala and smiled, "Thank you, aunt!" ”

Su Mala sighed again in her heart, and said in a low voice: "Don't complain about the Queen Mother, she is also for the emperor's ......" For the emperor's purpose, Su Mala didn't say it, and Sizhen didn't understand, but she knew that everything she had suffered today was the heart of the Queen Mother.

She remembered that in Guilin, the second cousin of the uncle's family fell in love with a girl, because the door was not right, the eldest aunt used a method, used gold and silver, and let the girl marry another, which was also a mother's heart.

can't drink and scold the son, so the girl will give up her mind and draw her salary from the bottom of the kettle.

She really wanted to ask the Queen Mother, the emperor was born to you in October, flesh and blood, could it be that my Kong Sizhen jumped out of the cracks in the stones? Do you love your son, and come to do it against me?

But she can't, even, she can't and won't have a trace of resentment, the king wants the minister to die, the minister can't not die, the thunder and rain are all holy graces.

Besides, her life can be said to have been saved by the Queen Mother.

Sizhen lowered her head and said softly: "I know, I won't complain about the queen mother, I heard the nurse say that on that day, I was almost dying of the wind and cold, and it was the queen mother who pointed out to the imperial doctor Zhang to help me heal, otherwise, where can I be Heshuo Gege, and have the current honor!" ”

Su Mala listened to a little uncomfortable, the king of Dingnan only has a son and a daughter, I heard that he is quite strict with his son, but this daughter, who is willing to bend down and ride as a horse for her, just wants the laurel tree in the moon, and will also think of a way to fold it for her, it can really be said that it is a baby with beady eyes, and now the parents are gone, although he is a Shuogege, raised in front of the queen mother, in the end it is different from in front of his parents!

But she didn't want Sizhen to resent the Queen Mother, and still explained: "Princess Jianning is now, if she does something wrong, she will also be punished by the Queen Mother, don't talk about you, it is the emperor, and she has also punished kneeling in the past, the Queen Mother is deeply responsible for love, and in her heart, she still loves your ......"

Sizhen nodded, "Thank you aunt for reminding me, I don't complain, I really don't complain." ”

People are under the eaves, they can't help but bow their heads, if they really want to complain, they only complain that they have entered the Forbidden City, and they can't help themselves.

If Sizhen only instinctively rejected the Queen Mother's proposal before, at this point, she completely understood.

really became a concubine, she only has the emperor, but the emperor has three thousand beauties, he is smiling at you today, gentle and gentle to you, and the next day he will tell other women about lovesickness, this sadness in the big house, she doesn't want it!

Although the imperial city is good, it is not my hometown!

This palace wall, she is going to go out sooner or later.

When Sizhen went to thank him, the queen mother pointed to the white-clothed monk inside and said: "Since you refuse to take an oath to your brother, go to the Bodhisattva and say that you will never be tempted by the emperor and will never be a concubine, otherwise, let the Bodhisattva punish you and make you lose your love forever." ”

Her beloved, isn't it Brother Yu now?!

It's just that at this time, Sizhen has made up his mind, and he doesn't shirk, walks to the futon and kneels, and makes an oath to the white-clothed priest according to what the Queen Mother said.

When she got up, the Queen Mother took her in her arms, and stared at her with tears: "Zhen girl, don't complain about your mother, the ancestral system does not allow Han people to be concubines, Concubine Ke entered the palace back then, and the mourning family and the emperor were blamed by those princes and nobles, and now it is an eventful time, and there is no room for any mistakes......

At this time, Sizhen understood that the Queen Mother wanted her to marry the emperor as a concubine a few years later, and she was obviously tempted by her, but I don't know, what would happen if she agreed at that time?

Perhaps, he will die quietly in this imperial city!

She was about to say something, but she saw the palace maid open the soft curtain, and a bright yellow figure stepped in, and a clear voice came, "Queen Mother, my son is here for you." ”
