Chapter 105: Military Power
The moonlit night that cannot be dissolved as deep as the thick ink of brushwork, the dim crescent moon is covered by the suppressed dark clouds, and there is no starlight in sight, which is depressing and uncomfortable.
The cool breeze blew in with the open window, with the scent of pomegranate flowers, refreshing people's hearts, making the mood of the woman sitting in front of the bed looking at the night stunned slightly.
Concubine Li woke up from a nightmare in the middle of the night, there was still a layer of fine sweat beads on her forehead, and her beating heart made her face pale and a little ugly, looking at Su Heng who was still asleep next to her, she couldn't bear to wake it up, so she got out of bed cautiously, took the Su embroidered cloak on the hook, and walked outside with shallow steps, looking at the darkness outside, indifferent in a daze.
Since the beginning of Yunyi's departure, her nightmares have become worse and worse every day, and she used to be able to catch up on her sleep during the day, and sleep lightly for a while, but now, she only feels that her eyes are closed for a moment, and what appears in front of her is the appearance of her sister when she died, and the last trace of her intermittent words.
Watch out for Father!
These four big characters are like a huge brand, the sound of the seal engraved in her heart, father and mother obviously can't pry open their mouths, if you want to know the answer, you can only start with the abolished company general, her people have been sent out, just wait for the news to come back, as long as you figure out why the company general was injured, then she can be clear, why her sister died.
Concubine Li, who has lost a whole circle, now looks unusually thin, the frontal bones at her cheeks have begun to protrude a little, she has not slept well for a long time, the dark green on her face is becoming more and more serious, all kinds of things in the palace are entangled, and there are all kinds of disturbances around her, she always feels so tired for a while.
With a light sigh, but a pair of hands were already on her shoulders behind her, Su Heng woke up from his sleep and found that his surroundings were empty, knowing that Concubine Li must have had a nightmare again.
"Ming'er I brought Wen Shu here, let him give you a pulse, see what's going on, since your sister went, you can't sleep for two or three hours a day, in the long run, how can your body stand it, the queen's body has not been well recuperated, and she can't share the things in your hands, otherwise, I let Jing Guifei share some of it for you, it's good."
"Thank you for the emperor's care, it's good to wait for a while, the imperial doctor's medicine is taken as usual, even if I invite Dr. Wen to come, I still take medicine as usual, rather than the trouble of exchanging it, it is better to save trouble, Jing Gui Concubine has never taken care of things in the palace, the concubine is teaching, and it is a matter of hard work, it is better for the concubine to take care of it, and the left and right are just a matter of silver for a few months, and there are people in the internal affairs office, and the concubine is not tired."
Grateful for the man's concern, she only said a few words to the person who was going to take away her rights to hastily send away, since the last time she was punished and grounded, she has suffered how many white eyes in this palace, how much the world is cold, the right and her, too important, if it is not for the special situation, to the things in hand, she said that she will not let anyone get a piece of the pie in vain.
Su Heng only smiled, regarded it as a tacit approval, and no longer comforted her. The palace maid outside brought in the soothing soup that was warm on the stove, Su Heng personally took it and handed it to Concubine Li's hand, watching Concubine Li drink it herself, there was not a drop left, there was no emotion between her eyebrows and eyes, only after she finished drinking, she took her hand and hugged her and fell asleep.
Concubine Li, who drank the tranquilizer, felt sleepy, unable to stand the weight of her eyelids, and began to fall asleep after a while, gradually falling asleep, and she still maintained a sense of sanity in her sleep.
Now among the six palaces, her pavilion baby palace is the only dragon favor, the holy family is thick, the three or five hours of the servant, every day occasionally with the emperor with dinner, attracting everyone's attention, such grace, compared to the past, only more than before, everyone is envious, but Concubine Li herself feels very illusory, that illusory feeling, just like the morning when the sun has not sprinkled to the world when the wisp of mist, after blowing away, there is no trace......
The heavy sleepiness hit layer upon layer, Concubine Li couldn't help anything else, only fell asleep deeply, and she slept until the morning light was faint, only to wake up from the bright light, and the position next to her at that time was already empty.
The sun is shining, the swallow is crying, and Gu Jingfeng, who is facing backwards, stepped on the steps carved from white marble under his feet and came up to the Taihe Hall to meet the emperor who had been waiting for him for a long time.
The dragon's birthday incense is lightly enveloped in all parts of the hall, with wisps of smoke, like light smoke and mist between mountain streams, lingering between the breaths everywhere.
The Son of Heaven, who had changed into a six-contract Chunsu embroidered deep robe, was sitting in front of the bookcase in front of him, concentrating on reading the folds in his hands, and after hearing the squeak of the door panel, he raised his head and put down the pen and paper in his hand.
"Have you found out about Wei Chiwu's movements?" The emperor got straight to the point and asked Gu Jingfeng, who was sitting on the circle chair below.
The two of them seemed to be ordinary friends, and they didn't care much about this so-called courtesy.
Gu Jingfeng shook his head, "Wei Chiwu is now a rat crossing the street, if you want to restore your former majesty, you don't just rely on the little personal soldiers under your hands, but more importantly, you still need to get the support of financial resources, with financial resources, you can recruit troops again, Su Mu's heart is too guarded, the people in the Jin Palace's mansion are all old people in the past, and it is not easy to intersperse new ones, so you can only improvise, and search carefully by the secret guards in all parts of the capital." ”
Wei Chiwu came to Beijing to get in touch with Su Mu, the monarch and the minister couldn't imagine that he could contact a third person, since Su Mu was lifted, he was much more restrained than usual, and he looked like he was testing something......
"Let it be, don't be too anxious, if they want to meet, they will definitely show their feet, and they don't need us to help them worry about it." Hearing Gu Jingfeng's answer, Su Heng only nodded, and said to Gu Jingfeng, who was tired of running for himself outside, Gu Jingfeng only nodded after hearing this!
"The queen knew that you were back in Beijing yesterday, and she only shouted for me to hurry up and arrange the marriage for you and Qingwu, can you decide when?" The two monarchs and ministers said that the government was over, and the conversation turned to family affairs, and at this moment, Li Quan brought new tea inside, and the emperor walked down from the front of the bookcase, and the two of them still sat and chatted with leisure.
"Yesterday I came back and went to Mrs. Tai to say goodbye, Mrs. Tai looked at the day, decided on August 16, I think this day is very good, I want to come to these months, things should be over, it is almost over, at that time, I will give Qingwu a grand and lively wedding with peace of mind, I also said to Qingwu yesterday, Qingwu also agreed." Gu Jingfeng drank his tea, and said all the words he had discussed with Mrs. Tai yesterday, and Su Heng nodded with him after hearing it, and did not speak, which was regarded as a tacit acquiescence.
"Concubine Li's medicine is still in use?" Holding the tea in his hand, Su Heng looked at the blue tea soup and asked in a low voice.
"The medicine prescribed by Wen Shu is excellent, and the whole hospital has never seen any objections to her nightmare, and she can't see a little bit of it except for her daily lack of energy." When the emperor heard this, he was silent for a moment and then replied to Gu Jingfeng.
Ten years of cultivation in the same boat, a hundred years of cultivation to sleep together, ten years of friendship with Concubine Li, he personally harmed her, he couldn't bear it in his heart, the emperor of the Ninety-Five Emperor also had a heart, but compared to the infant child, he had to do such a method!
In the main hall, because of the wisp of the emperor's words, it instantly calmed down, and those who have become great things have suffered too much and lost too much, and Gu Jingfeng and the emperor feel the same way.
"General Nalian said in person that his father wants to marry Chu'er to her and marry him!" The benzoin in the Guanwa Palace floated behind the crystal bead curtain with a clear and long breath.
Concubine Li's face was not good, her eyebrows and eyes were full of anger, and her depression condensed in her heart, and after the big palace maid beside her screamed, she took a deep breath.
"That's right, the general is the most lustful, and the people sent out were just a little flirtatious by his side, so he said everything, saying that the boss personally made a verbal agreement with him, and decided to send the second miss to him to fill the house, but I didn't expect the second miss to be so strong, and there was something to follow."
The palace maid told Concubine Li all the original words in a deep voice, and Concubine Li's face was now becoming more and more pale, and she couldn't help but say in her heart, no wonder her sister wanted to move such a big liver fire, and she wanted to cripple the general of the company in such a roundabout way.
"The slave maid had a heart, and inquired in the house again, and heard from the people in the house that after the old man and the second miss returned to the house that day, they moved the atmosphere and beat the child in the second miss's belly directly, and the second miss was injured and fell into the womb, so she returned to the house so sad and self-immolated."
On that day, how many people were watching and listening to the situation in the house, no matter how good the blockade was, there would be news leaking, and after hearing the words of the palace maid, Concubine Li's silver teeth clenched, and she couldn't believe that scene.
"Father won't marry General Lian for no reason, there must be a more truth in this, and the people you sent to General Lian didn't ask what was going on?"
The watery eyes are now condensed into ice, and the eyes are full of coldness, Concubine Li's hands can't stop rubbing under her sleeves, trying to get to the bottom of what the meaning of this incident is.
"I didn't ask for the specifics, but that servant could always hear him when he avoided people by General Lian's side, and he was always cursing there, saying that it was military power or something, and if you want to connect it carefully, it will take some time to think about it." The palace maid shook her head, not knowing the deep meaning.
And after hearing the word military power, Concubine Li's face had changed, and a flash of inspiration appeared in her mind, as if she understood something, her feet were soft, and she couldn't stop stumbling.
Military power, the Lian family has military power in their hands, and the father does not hesitate to send his daughter to the Lian family as a bet to maintain it, but the father, what do you want to do with the military power, the Son of Heaven is on his side, he is a civil minister, and he needs military power......
