Chapter 217: Movement (1)
Since the beginning of spring, this is the warmest spring day. The queen rode steadily on her shoulders, followed by a group of minions and wandered in the imperial garden. What I saw was the softest sunshine in this spring, and the clouds were rolling. It seems that when I raise my head, I can't see the red walls and golden tiles, and the eaves are heavy, but I don't feel that this piece of blue sky where birds can soar is actually boxy.
Forgetting her worries for a while, the queen's heart was full of comfort, her body was as light as a swallow, and her eyes followed the birds galloping between the unrestrained heaven and earth. It makes her yearn for more than the world of the mother on the phoenix crown, and when she thinks of this body, the heavy sense of loss dilutes all her thoughts, after all, there is no moment of comfort!
He Huan looked at the servants who walked beside the queen, who could be trusted by Chuxiu Palace, and asked softly: "Niangniang is condescending, and it is just enough to visit the concubine in Yongshou Palace, why do you still want to see the charming nobleman after visiting the concubine?" What kind of place is Changchun Palace, the slave maid really feels worthless for Niangniang. β
The queen finally cleared up for a while, and her thoughts were still outside the clouds like a galloping pegasus, and she was suddenly pulled back to reality by He Huan's sentence, which was really a headache. There was a deep disdain in the center of her eyebrows, and the queen glanced at He Huan, her chest rose and fell, as if she took a deep breath to suppress her boredom. "Okay, what are you talking about? Hongu naturally knows it in his heart. β
Seeing that the queen didn't seem to be happy, He Huan made amends: "Niangniang forgives her sins, it's the slave who talks too much." In fact, He Huan also knows that as a slave, the master cannot be chosen. And the master's affairs have never been his turn to intervene. She didn't have such a good life as a nobleman, and once she climbed to the emperor's grace, she became a serious little master in the Forbidden City.
There is no bad heart or ruthlessness, she only hopes to share the queen's worries and ensure the safety of her master, so that she can survive until she is twenty-five years old and leave the palace safely.
Glancing at He Huan, the queen turned her face with a smile: "Have you heard something?" β
"This ......" He Huan was a little embarrassed, then nodded again, and said slowly: "The slave maid heard that if the concubine and the noble lady are pregnant, it seems that they are all ...... Male fetuses. β
Brother, Lotus didn't dare to say these two words, for fear of angering the queen, and afraid that the queen would really mind, and the lives of these two children who were still in the womb would be in danger.
"This palace has always suffered losses, and what it eats is a loss given by the people around him." The queen gently stroked her sideburns and straightened the tassels flying around her waist. continued to say slowly: "In the past, there were Xiao Danzi, Jasmine, and Xu Miao...... They are all trusted by the palace, but they have pushed the palace to the cusp. β
He Huan shuddered and almost knelt down on the street.
On the contrary, the queen said "En~", and the smile in her eyes became more and more obvious: "So whether it is the servants around the palace, or the maids who are close to you, you don't need to be particularly clever." As long as you don't have so much thought, you will definitely be able to get out of the palace. β
As if she had been stripped of her clothes in public, He Huan's face burned hot, and she lowered her head heavily: "The slave understands." β
"It's good to get it." The queen's eyes were awe-inspiring, full of hatred: "The most hateful thing at the moment is not the noble concubines and charming nobles, nor the male fetuses in their wombs. It's ......"
After suffering so many losses, is she still unable to distinguish between right and wrong? Who joined forces with the Kang Guiren in the cold palace to calculate himself, as long as this cheap hoof who eats inside and outside is alive, he will never be at ease. The queen was unwilling to give birth to a lot of chaos when the emperor left the palace.
But I can't rub this sand in my eyes, so if I am a noble concubine or one of the nobles, it is best to eradicate the disaster for her. It's best to lose both, and let her sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight again.
The queen's phoenix drove here, and then Le Xi'er had already rushed into the back compartment to report.
As soon as Qin'er heard that the queen was coming, she hurriedly ordered someone to prepare refreshments. Pei Shuang served close to Ruyue's side, for fear that the queen would have any bad intentions.
Ruyue didn't think it was strange, the queen would come sooner or later. And she had already guessed that if she didn't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, she would inevitably have to make some moves. However, in her own heart, she has always hoped that the queen would come sooner, everyone has a heart disease, and it is better to cure it as soon as possible than to have no medicine to treat it.
"You really don't have to be like this, the queen won't be rude to us at this time. After all, she still wants to use our knife to cut off those branches that are disloyal to her! "If you can always get the queen's mind, you naturally have to plan for yourself. Her current situation is already on par with the queen, the more she gets to the top, the more dangerous it is, she understands this simple truth!
Sure enough, when the queen walked into the inner bed step by step in a red flag outfit with a phoenix feather and peony national color, Ruyue once again made up her mind of the queen. She gently put her hand in Pei's hands, held the small table next to her hand, and stood up with a light movement. "The queen mother is blessed with Jin'an."
Just a shallow bending of the knees, the queen had already stepped forward: "If you are a concubine, quickly flatten down." Didn't the emperor already explain that there is no need to be polite during pregnancy, so why should my sister be so polite. β
Ruyue can't remember the last time the queen called herself her sister, thinking that it was probably when the emperor was there. But it doesn't matter, it's just a matter of face. "Queen Lao came to visit, Ruyue was uneasy. Qin'er, bring a Huzhou purple bamboo shoot. β
The queen sat down affectionately with Ruyue and called out to Hehuan. "This is embroidered by hand in this palace, if you want to come to the belly of the concubine, it must be a little brother, so I embroidered the pattern of the two dragons playing with pearls, my sister don't dislike it."
Qin'er obediently took the belly pocket from He Huan's hand and handed it to Ruguifei's hand, not happy. Ruyue smiled slightly, and unconsciously admired: "The concubine never knew that the queen's needle was so good." This small belly pocket is embroidered with a vivid double dragon, which is really amazing. β
"The years in the palace are difficult, day after day, you have to do something to pass the morning." The queen sighed slightly, but did not continue. Instead, he picked up the teacup and tasted it carefully.
Ruyue waved her hand, called Qin'er to keep it away, and told Pei Shuang to go and get some Bazhen cakes again. When everyone retreated, she smiled lightly: "What the queen mother said is true, the years in the harem are indeed difficult, but no matter how difficult it is, it has been like this for many years." After all, there is nothing big about it. β
"The most envious thing in this palace, in addition to your stunning appearance, sister, is that there are these desperate people around you to serve. Do you know what is the saddest thing about this palace? "The queen's pure gold escort, sporadically inlaid with gems of various colors, swaying, the star-like dazzling light soared into the air to draw an arc, which is very beautiful.
Ruyue shook her head lightly, not in a hurry to speak.
"This palace is very envious, to this day, there are still so many people who are willing to sincerely put their hearts on you." The queen's brows were a little tight, and her eyes were also full of true feelings: "Even the emperor trusts you very much, and these make the palace unreachable." β
I only felt ridiculous and pathetic, but Ruyue was still silent. In fact, the queen has today, and it is all because of her own cruelty and viciousness.
The queen faced Ruyue's pair of autumn water cut pupils: "Once upon a time, the first queen also had such a pair of apricot eyes, pure and clear, beautiful people can't take their eyes off, I can't wait to look deep in my eyes, just remember it in my mind." When this palace first entered the palace, it was not naΓ―ve and pure, and I always felt that a woman with such a pair of eyes must be so pure in heart.
What's more, she treated the palace really well and intimately, and the emperor was like this at that time. Looking back, that time was the most nostalgic and unforgettable ...... in my life."
"Concubines can be imagined." Ruyue didn't want to listen to the queen anymore, but looked at her eyes very seriously: "Just because everything was not as beautiful as it was then, couldn't Niangniang's heart be self-contained?" β
smiling coldly, there were tears flashing at the end of the queen's eyes: "Food, clothing, housing and transportation are all the best products in the world." The only thing I saw was the ugliest thing in the world. Which face that is alluring the country and the city, not hiding his ugliest heart? Which pair of soft jade hands are not choking someone else's throat and are not stained with blood?
At that time, if you were not there, you had not seen it, and you did not know how clever the former queen's methods were. And after you enter the palace, all you see is the viciousness and sin of the palace. Do you think this is the only one who looks like this? I don't know that these are all given by the defeated queen. β
Maybe the first queen is really not as simple as Ruyue thought, didn't Mianning force her to die just to cover up for her mother! But what does all this have to do with the present?
"It's all in the past, and it doesn't make any sense for the queen to say it now." Ruyue was still smiling, not angry or angry, and the clouds were light and breezy.
"It really doesn't mean anything to you. But for this palace, it is from such cruelty that he has lived until now, and he understands that everything today is all cause and effect, and retribution is not happy. As she spoke, the queen gently put down the teacup in her hand.
Stunned: "The queen first supported Concubine Ying, that is, Concubine Hua, to take away the favor of the palace, and then supported you in her dying plan, and later took away the throne belonging to the third elder brother of the palace." It's really vicious. But you, have you never thought of letting the child in your womb become the emperor and reign over the world? β
I thought that the queen was coming, and she just wanted to talk about An Concubine, but she didn't expect the topic to be so far, and even the matter of bringing the prince was involved. Ruyue sighed and sighed, and it took a long time before she said: "The concubine remembers that the emperor said that if he can choose, he also hopes that he is just an ordinary prince." The concubine's heart has never been high, she just hopes that the child can grow up safely and live in peace. β
