Chapter 66: Discord
Fu added: "She is hot today, if she rushes now, no one can control what will happen, Tuoba Yue, although you treat her as a sharp blade, but please respect her." ”
Gao Yuan's expression was a little serious, and there was no mercy between his words, Tuoba Yue stared at Gao Yuan's side face a little inexplicably, as if he was aware of his gaffe, and felt a sense of boredom in his heart, so he turned around and left the inner hall.
Yueqi has been guarding the door, seeing Gao Yuan coming out, thinking that Tuoba Yue also came out, the probe looked behind Gao Yuan, but he didn't want to see Tuoba Yue's figure, and looked towards the inner hall curiously, only to see that his prince was sitting next to the bed of the little master of Xi Concubine, looking at the sleeping woman in white on the bed with his eyes down, both of them are extremely handsome people, so it seems that a kind of time is quiet.
Tuoba Yue seemed to notice something, turned his head suddenly, and saw Yue Qi's flashing smile, his eyes narrowed slightly, Yue Qi quickly stood up straight, lowered his head and didn't dare to look ahead, just said in a low voice: "Lord Wang, Mr. Gao said, the medicinal effect of those palace people will pass soon, we are leaving." ”
Tuoba Yue waved his hand, Yue Qi took the order and retreated, he turned to look at He Xi, her breathing gradually stabilized, her brows gradually stretched, it seemed that she slept very smoothly, and Gao Yuan fed her medicine, which should have taken effect at this time.
Gently pulling out the sleeve, He Xixiu's eyebrows furrowed slightly, at that moment, Tuoba Yue was like a ghost, and her cool fingers were applied to her eyebrows, as if she wanted to smooth the lines of her eyebrows, but as if she was burned by the cinnabar mole, she suddenly retracted her hand.
got up suddenly and was about to leave, but as if he remembered something, he turned around and lightly helped He Xi cover the corners, and then left with confidence.
The burning touch of his fingertips was still there, and even the tooth marks on his hands became hot, Tuoba Chen took a deep breath, put his hands into the wide sleeved robe, and walked out of the Hehuan Palace.
Early the next morning, when He Xi opened his eyes, he saw a familiar figure in the hall, it was Chou'er, He Xi was overjoyed, and opened his mouth to call: "Chou'er, you are here!" ”
But the voice of the exit was a little hoarse, and there was a lazy breath that had not woken up, and the ugly child turned around, his face was still the silver mask, but different, at this time, he had changed into the pale pink skirt worn by the palace maid, and the early morning sun refracted a sparkling luster on the ugly child's mask.
He Xi squinted his eyes with some satisfaction, and when he saw He Xi wake up, the ugly voice said softly: "Little master, it was hot last night, and it will be more comfortable to drink some warm water." ”
After saying that, she put down the things in her hand, took a cup of warm tea from the table of pear blossom nanmu on the side, and rode it with a delicate carved celadon.
She quietly fed He Xi a few sips, He Xi's throat was much more comfortable, and then she asked, "When did you come?" How come I don't know anything? ”
"I was supposed to enter the palace tomorrow, but Ruyi was sick, and as soon as the palace door opened this morning, I asked someone to bring the ugly child into the palace. I wanted to surprise you, but I didn't want you to get hot and sleep until now. A cold voice came in, the ugly hand holding the cup shook, the tea in the cup dripped out a trace of dripping on the begonia spring quilt, thick blood red stains, He Xi stretched out his hand to hold the ugly child, and nodded firmly at her.
Chou'er took a deep breath, then helped He Xi to get up, found a goose feather soft pillow and put it behind He Xi, then put away the tea cup and bowed out.
He Xi lifted the quilt as if he wanted to get up and salute, Tuoba Chen put down the book in his hand, walked to He Xi's side, sat on the bed very naturally, stopped He Xi's movements, and said softly: "You are sick, this matter is already strange, I have wronged you." ”
Knowing that Tuoba Chen said that it was yesterday, He Xi shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is not at fault, and the concubine's preservation depends on Your Majesty's protection." ”
Tuoba Chen was a little surprised when he saw her sincerity, and asked, "Why don't you blame me?" Shouldn't I be resentful of you and Ruyi kneeling in the rain? ”
He Xi lowered his head, his long eyelashes trembled slightly, like a thin-winged butterfly landing on the green leaves of the flowers, and then said: "Why is there no resentment in the concubine's heart, but the concubine's resentment is the person behind the scenes, who has evil intentions and ill intentions. His Majesty is the Majesty of the world, not the Majesty of the concubines themselves, so the concubines do not resent Your Majesty. ”
Tuoba Chen took He Xi in his arms, stroked He Xi's soft black hair, and sighed: "Everyone wants me to be what they want, the courtiers want me to be fair and strict, the palace concubines are expected to be arbitrary and favored, everyone starts from their own interests, only you will say to me, I am the majesty of the world, if you are like this, what more can I ask for?" ”
The voice was gentle, affectionate, He Xi had a sneer in his heart, although Tuoba Chen kept saying this, but why wasn't he such a selfish person, Mu Jin gave him everything, but he sent her to hell, and now he wants to be redeemed? It's ridiculous.
She closed her eyes and closed the karmic fire in her eyes.
In the Ice Spring Palace, the green pothos came in from outside the door with a plate of sweet and sour dates, and made a color to the palace maids who were cleaning on the side.
Luluo stretched out her hand and pulled out the book in Xu Qing'er's hand, and said with a smile: "Niangniang, this is a few years of newly pickled sweet and sour candied fruit from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, very appetizing, this morning His Majesty specially instructed Gonggong Fu to send it, the slave maid first chilled it before bringing it to Niangniang." ”
Xu Qing'er glanced at the pothos with disgust and said, "Okay, well, the entire Ice Spring Palace belongs to you as the most clever." After that, Su picked up a grain and put it in his mouth, and it was really sweet and sour, very appetizing.
After a while, she asked again: "You just said that Gonggong Fu sent it?" The green pothos said happily: "But isn't it, Gonggong Fu said, Your Majesty has already instructed the Internal Affairs Office, and it was delivered early this morning, so I hurriedly sent it to the mother, I heard that there is no such grace in the queen's palace." ”
Xu Qing'er only felt that the sour flesh turned over in her mouth, and it was slightly soaked out of a trace of sweetness, and she couldn't help but eat another one, at this time she realized that the other palace maids in the palace didn't know when to quit, she glanced at the pothos, and said softly: "Say, what happened?" ”
The green pothos moved closer to Xu Qing'er's side, and then said softly: "Listen, last night, the little master of Concubine Zhao was gone." Today, His Majesty sent someone to deliver a letter to Changzhou. ”
The candied fruit in Xu Qing'er's hand was not held steadily, it fell to the ground, rolled twice, stained with a little dust, and looked a little embarrassed.
Seeing Xu Qing'er like this, Lu Luo hurriedly took the handkerchief and wiped Xu Qing'er's hands and said, "Niangniang, it's all to blame on the slave maid, how can you talk about this matter in a good manner." ”
Xu Qing'er shook her head and said a little dullly: "Zhao Ruxue turned out to be a person as delicate as a flower, but she didn't want her face to wither and be fleeting. ”
She stretched out her hand to push the plate of sweet and sour dates away, and the pothos naturally knew her mother's thoughts, she whispered: "Niangniang doesn't have to be sad, the left and right are other people's affairs, you now have Lord Shangshu in front of you, and you are pregnant with a dragon heir, where can anyone shake your status?" ”
Xu Qing'er stretched out her hand to hold Shang Huan's flat lower abdomen, lowered her eyes and didn't speak, and Lu Luofu said softly: "I heard that the little master of Weiyang Palace was also there yesterday, and she was punished by Your Majesty for kneeling in the rain." ”
Xu Qing'er came back to her senses and muttered: "Sister He Xi has just recovered from a serious illness, the rain yesterday was heavy and urgent, my sister will definitely catch a cold, you will pick some supplements from our palace to ward off the cold and send them over." ”
Seeing that Xu Qing'er was just concerned about He Xi's body all the time, Lu Luo said a little anxiously: "Niangniang, the slave maid told you this, not to let you send things to them. ”
Xu Qing'er was stunned for a moment, and said slowly: "What is that for?" ”
The green pothos was patient, and said little by little: "Haven't you thought about the key? It must have been something that Concubine Xi said in front of His Majesty, Concubine Zhao and Concubine Xi have always had a holiday, how could she give up such an opportunity, and was punished by His Majesty to kneel again, presumably Her Majesty also knew her thoughts, just beat her. ”
Xu Qing'er hasn't eased up yet, she just kept her head shut and didn't speak, Lu Luo knows her mother too well, as long as she encounters something she doesn't want to believe, she has this expression, but in her opinion, Na He Xi can be regarded as a big hidden danger, and she doesn't know what ecstasy soup she gave to her little master, and she doesn't even believe the words of her personal maid.
She was also so angry that she didn't want to speak, and there was a moment of silence between the master and servant.
At this time, the voice of the announcement sounded outside: "Concubine Shu, the queen has arrived." ”
The eunuch's treacherous voice pulled Xu Qing'er out of her thoughts, and the green pothos also quickly cleaned up, and then helped Xu Qing'er to get up, walked out, and only when she reached the palace gate, she saw that Lan Ruo had already entered the palace gate supported by Qiao'er.
Today, Lan Ruo is wearing a delicate palace dress that is different from the past, only wearing a plain dark purple brocade skirt, and the skirt is still embroidered with gold thread with a white bird and phoenix pattern, but she simply curls a flowing cloud bun and presses her temples with a red gold phoenix tail flower, which is not glamorous, but it is more noble.
Xu Qing'er hurriedly took a group of palace maids to bow down, Lan Ruo stretched out her plain white hands to help Xu Qing'er up, her slender white fingers didn't even point cardamom, and the armor that the queen usually wore was gone, with a little tiredness in her voice, and said gently: "Sister Shufei, why should you be polite, you are now golden, I heard that even Your Majesty has exempted you from the gift, why does this palace look such an unreasonable person?" ”
Xu Qing'er got up with the strength of the queen's hands, and then affectionately supported Lan Ruo's hand and walked towards the inner hall.
