"Your Majesty, the concubines ......" Panyu hadn't opened his mouth to explain this matter clearly, and Hongli had slowly raised his eyebrows.

"I know that you have many grievances and many sorrows. There is only so much I can do, but I will try to make up for you as much as possible. Hongli let go of Panyu's hand, and said in silence for a moment: "I will not pursue the matter of Wei Chang's existence, just like the case of Concubine Hui, whether it is you or not, no matter what it has to do with you, I will not let you fall into it." In other words, even if it was really you, I wouldn't pursue it. ”

Pan Yu's brows frowned a little tighter, and her originally quiet white face was also covered with annoyed flushing: "Your Majesty, the concubine really doesn't have ......"

Gently put his index finger on Panyu's lips, and what Hongli was going to say was finished. "You just need to remember my intentions, and I won't doubt you for the rest, and don't think I'm suspicious of you. Gui Kui can't go back to Chengqian Palace to serve, not only because he is really involved in this matter, but also because he is too confused to even recognize his master, let alone understand the master's intentions, what is the use of keeping it? Later, I will ask Li Yu to go to the Internal Affairs Office to select clever and clever minions to serve in your palace. ”

I don't know why, Panyu suddenly remembered a dream she had before. In the dream, she wanted to break free and escape, but she couldn't open her legs, opened her mouth, and couldn't exert any strength up and down her body. Only the chagrin in her heart was undiminished, and she was so distressed that she wanted to tear the heavy cotton cloth that wrapped her.

It felt the same as now, and it was like this time, in and out of her dreams, which made her a little unclear. "Thank you, Your Majesty, the concubines understand."

originally thought that Concubine Xian would be dissatisfied with her arrangement, and even refuted that she would turn her face with herself again because of her stubbornness. But I don't want to this time, Concubine Xian is very docile and peaceful. Hongli was still a little glad that she had such a change, and she couldn't help but smile warmly: "In the final analysis, these things are just jealous things in the harem." I often wonder if I'm not doing a good job. Otherwise, how can everyone be dissatisfied? ”

Panyu was difficult to laugh, but he did not reveal this difficulty from his smile: "The emperor was originally going to deal with countless state affairs, and although the concubines couldn't share the emperor's worries, they didn't want to cause chaos to the emperor." The emperor said that he did not suspect his concubines, and he did not want his concubines to suspect that you have such suspicions, and the concubines would remember this sentence firmly. It is precisely because of this sentence that the concubine feels that she has the bottom in her heart. ”

stroked Concubine Xian's cheeks, and touched the droplet jade on her small earlobes, seeing her staring directly at her slightly gentle eyes, she reluctantly said: "I like you who are soft and gentle now, like something that has been precipitated by years of experience." A unique precipitation, resting in my heart is also the same. ”

Panyu just smiled gently, shrunk quietly, and moved a little away from his front heart. Even if it's just an inch of distance, this inch of no contact, it will be poured into the cold wind.

There are some things, it's not that you don't want to accept your fate, Panyu really never dreamed that the queen would confess those things to the emperor at this time. Is it a discovery of conscience, or is it an ulterior motive?

Coming out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, Panyu went straight to Cining Palace. Originally, she could pretend to have nothing to worry about, and stay by the emperor's side until dawn the next day. But she still couldn't do it. When she thought that the emperor was doubly considerate because she felt indebted to herself, she felt uncomfortable.

It happened that Concubine Shu sent some stewed soup, and she came out of the Heart Cultivation Hall under the pretext of serving the Queen Mother for dinner. "Queen Mother......" Pan Yu stood by the door, looked at the Queen Mother with her back to herself, facing the window lattice, and called coldly. At this time, the sun has set, and the cold wind pours into the window lattice, so beware of catching a cold. ”

The Queen Mother did not turn around, still maintaining her posture and did not move. After a long time, he smiled and said, "When has the mourning family warmed your heart?" I've been used to it for a long time. If you can't even withstand this little wind, how can you survive until now? ”

Pan Yu smiled softly and laughed at herself: "What the Queen Mother said is very true, the concubines are afraid that they will treat others with themselves." I couldn't bear it, so I felt that the wind and cold were extremely harsh. I don't know, it's just that the concubines can't hold it on their own. ”

When she turned to look at Concubine Xian, the Queen Mother couldn't help but be surprised when she saw her tears falling like rain: "Didn't you walk out of the Heart Cultivation Hall in a good manner?" Since the emperor didn't blame you, what do you have to be sad about? ”

"What a concubine asks for is never a charity!" Pan Yu choked up and said: "The queen felt guilty because she had assassinated the concubines, so she helped the concubines again and again, and these concubines should be grateful, but for a weak person who has no grace, how can these helpers not be charity."

It's good now, the most important thing that the emperor should know has been broken, and the concubines think that the emperor will stand up for the concubines and give the concubines justice. But it turned out that the emperor just hoped that the concubines would not embarrass the queen and not hate the queen. The emperor thought that the poisoning of Huai'an, who was by Wei Chang's side, was done by the concubines, and even the poisonous spiders on Concubine Hui were also caused by the concubines, so he failed to balance the concubines and did not do anything more, so he was exempted from the responsibility of the concubines, which was a write-off.

Queen Mother, you said, hatred can be written off, and kindness can also be done? The queen has let her concubines be neglected for so many years, and she has suffered all the bad consequences caused by her cruelty and selfishness. Can it be written off with a foolish account that the concubine has never done? What's wrong with the emperor, how can he believe it, how can he believe it? Didn't the emperor ever love his concubines? ”

thought that these words would rot in her stomach, but Panyu didn't expect it, she still asked angrily. She knew that the emperor didn't like her like this, so she didn't dare to cry in front of the emperor, but she could tell the queen mother about her endless grievances. The more I talk, the more sad I become, and the more sad I become, the more I can't stop crying.

From the beginning of his sour nose to the numbness of his cold cheeks from the strings of tears, Panyu didn't know how long she was going to cry and how to stop.

suddenly remembered what happened when she was young, and the Queen Mother was also a little uncomfortable by her sadness. Gently took a phoenix tail scarf, slowly walked over and handed it to Concubine Xian: "If crying can save a man's heart, then the mourning family doesn't have to do so many things, just watch you cry." Concubine Xian, the matter has come to this, even if you cry blindly, it will not help. ”

Pan Yu nodded in a daze, and said again and again: "Queen Mother, the concubine knows, the concubine really knows, the concubine knows that crying is useless, and the concubine knows that crying is useless." But the concubine just felt that her heart was blocked, as if a ball of cotton full of water droplets was stuffed there, and the concubine was about to suffocate. ”

"That's it." The Queen Mother slowly walked past Concubine Xian and slowly sat on the chair inlaid with sandalwood inlay: "If you are very aggrieved, it's okay to cry." The mourning family thinks so, after crying this time, your heart is not easy to hurt so much. ”

"Queen Mother...... The concubine's heart is like a knife, how can it not hurt? Panyu held the towel given by the Queen Mother, but did not wipe her tears, but just let the tears wash her cold cheeks.

After a little breath, the Queen Mother slowly smiled: "The emperor still cares about you after all, otherwise, how could he want to compensate you by offsetting the guilt." Yes, Wei Chang's affairs are strange and have nothing to do with you. But the poisonous spider on Concubine Hui's body was made by you. ”

It was as if a thunderclap shook overhead, and Panyu couldn't believe his ears. "Queen Mother, don't you even believe in your concubines?" After thinking about it, Concubine Xian immediately felt that something was wrong: "Could it be your ......?"

The Queen Mother glanced at Concubine Xian's shocked face, and nodded slowly: "It was arranged by the mourning family." ”

"Why?" Pan Yu was stunned: "The concubine never thought of plotting against Concubine Hui and the sixth elder brother, the Queen Mother, if you do this, isn't it to ruin the future of the concubine?" ”

"No, how could it be." The Queen Mother smiled coldly: "Didn't you see it too?" Instead of ruining your future, the mourning family tried to show the emperor's sincerity in treating you. If you don't go well here, the queen will tell the emperor about the events of the past years, and it can be regarded as resolving a lot of misunderstandings. Concubine Xian, think about it again, if it weren't for the Mourning family's strategy of putting everyone to death and resurrecting later, Wei Chang would have been in that account, plus this account, even if the emperor didn't count it, he would definitely put you aside.

Isn't it great now? The mourning family forced the queen to tell the truth, and tried out the emperor's affection for you, and counted it in one fell swoop. The more times like this, the more you can see the sincerity of others. Concubine Hui has reconciled with you on the surface, but now, it's not Baba's hope that the emperor and queen will clean you up! So there are no eternal friends in the harem, let alone eternal sisters.

Everything is just a matter of adapting to the times, and those who know how to judge the situation are the ones who will really plan for themselves. On the surface, you have no way back, but in fact, as long as you remain gentle and peaceful like this, the emperor does not have to break his promise. ”

Panyu couldn't tell what it was like in her heart, she didn't know who was helping her and who was harming her, she just felt like a lonely leaf floating in the wind, everything she did was wrong, and she wouldn't go back to the past. Would it be a good thing for her to fight without affection?

"Don't be stupid." The Queen Mother saw her discouragement: "Even if you can't become the emperor's favorite woman, you must become the woman who can accompany him the longest and be the closest to him." You can understand just by looking at the queen that no matter how many women there are in the harem, only the queen can stand side by side with the emperor. ”

"The concubine never wanted to be the queen." Panyu closed her eyes in pain, and the tears continued to roll down.

"I never thought it mattered, and now I can think about it. As long as you are obedient and obedient, the mourning family will make you the queen soon. "The Queen Mother's eyes flashed with determination, and it was a little more dangerous than cold." It's up to you to dare! ”
