Chapter 369: Honor and Disgrace
"Yes, I'll definitely visit you both when I'm free."
Such an ethereal promise, said is equivalent to not said.
The shattered Wanyun, a lonely ghost, sat in the splendid Zichen Palace. She didn't dare to leak the slightest sadness and complaint, she was afraid that the little sense of existence she had in the emperor would disappear because of her complaints.
"Your Majesty, you must remember to go to see Yun'er, Yun'er is working hard with a child, and she will only feel better when she sees the emperor."
The emperor was obviously a little tired of these relentless pursuits, and said perfunctorily: "I will, you take care of the children for me, and I will see you when I am free." ”
At this moment, Wanyun really hated her own eyes, and she saw through the emperor at a glance when she said this, she didn't plan to vacate at all. So she was sad in her heart.
Sometimes women are too smart and they are prone to getting bogged down in fatigue. Wanyun is like that.
Wan Rong didn't have Wan Yun's intelligence, so she happily pulled the emperor's dragon robe, and shouted to the emperor again and again, "Your Majesty, when will you be free?" ”
The emperor had never thought of such a question, and was suddenly asked by Wan Rong.
This scene also confirmed Wanyun's guess that the emperor didn't plan to visit her at all, but just said it casually.
"Sister, just after the New Year recently, all parts and ministries have just been sealed, many things are stacked together waiting for the emperor to deal with, and my sister has just come back, many places are not yet thoughtful, and when the emperor straightens out these things, he will naturally come back to see us."
Wanyun's words were insincere, and her words were not right, just to speak to the emperor's heart. The emperor swept away the previous gloom, looked at Wanyun with appreciation, and said, "It's still Yun'er who understands me and knows my heart." ”
This sentence of appreciation is like a slap in the face for Wanyun. Unexpectedly, he excused the emperor for not coming to see his embarrassment, so he got the emperor's warm smile.
Zichen Hall summoned her, at this scene, it was already boring for Wan Yun, if it wasn't for the situation, if it wasn't for the fear of making the emperor angry, Wan Yun really wanted to shoot the case and left. But she couldn't, and she didn't want to.
"What other interesting things did Wanying have when she was a child?"
Wan Rong tried her best to think about the memories she had forgotten, and Wan Yun got up and apologized: "Your Majesty, we were called over today, and we were suddenly asked about these past events, and we could only think of these things for a while, even if we racked our brains, we couldn't remember them anymore." Now it's the second watch, and Emperor Ming'er will be early in the dynasty. Why don't we stop here today, and when we go back, we can remember it well, and then write it down with notes, and when the emperor is free, he will summon us, and we will have a good chat at that time, okay? ”
The emperor's face was swept over the loss, and after thinking about it, he agreed with Wanyun's suggestion, "Yun'er said very well, then let's get here today, after you two sisters go back, think about Wanying's interesting things in the past, and I will look for you again." ”
Sure enough, he is a good emperor who cares about Wanying! When Wanyun heard that the emperor was going to summon the two of them, her heart turned over and over, and the waves were turbulent. 'Let me come and see me and the child in my womb, you push back and forth, and then look at it when you have time.' As soon as you talk about Wanying's past, you will immediately arrange it until tomorrow. ’
Wanyun's heart was extremely painful, and the ghost asked in a terrible way: "Why did the emperor suddenly remember to ask us this?" ”
When the emperor was asked about this question, he explained with some sadness: "I feel that Wanying is a little alienated from me when she comes back this time, and it is I who has made her suffer so many grievances, and I want to compensate her." ”
Wan Yun really shouldn't have asked this damn question, she felt as if she had fallen into hell on earth tonight, constantly enduring the five thunderbolts, watching herself continue to suffer from the catastrophe of destruction.
"Your Majesty, you should settle it earlier, Yun'er and my sister will leave first."
Of course, Wan Rong was reluctant to leave so early, but she should have been pulled away from Zichen Hall by Wan Yun.
Out of the main hall, Wan Rong broke free from Wan Yun's hands, and said with some sorrow: "Sister, what's wrong with you today, the emperor is on the rise, and he finally saw us once, why do you say just leave?" ”
Wanyun pretended to be hard in front of the emperor, left the emperor, and no longer wanted to hide her heart, so she said directly: "Sister, the emperor's words are all for Wanying, let's pestle there, don't you feel uncomfortable?" ”
"What's so uncomfortable, meeting for three points, whether it's for Wanying or something else, as long as the emperor is willing to see us, it proves that the emperor still has us in his heart, right?"
"Sister, the emperor only has Wanying in his heart, not us."
"Didn't you know this before?"
"Since my sister knows, why didn't she refuse the emperor just now, why did she say so much to the emperor?"
"Why should I refuse? How do we stay with the emperor, isn't my sister clear? ”
"Sister, what do you mean?"
"Sister, you have too much to expect."
"What do you expect too much from this palace?"
Wan Rong took Wan Yun's hand, touched the soaked palm, took out her silk handkerchief and wiped the sweat on Wan Yun's palm, and said eloquently: "Sister, you expect the emperor to fall in love with you, right?" ”
Wanyun lowered her head and remained silent.
"Sister, the reason why we can stay with the emperor is not because the emperor is in love with us, but because we are Wanying's sisters, and our appearance and temperament are somewhat similar to Wanying, aren't we? When the emperor didn't have Wanying, he kept saying that he loved us, but in fact, we in the emperor's mouth were Wanying. Because the emperor misunderstood Wanying dead, he said 'love' to us. You've been smart since you were a child, isn't it clear? Now that Wanying is back alive, of course the emperor is going to return to Wanying, we were originally stand-ins, weren't we? ”
In the dark night, on the cold long street, these words in Wan Rong's mouth were more piercing than the cold wind.
"Sister, the emperor is not wrong, Wanying is not wrong, if we can't figure out our position, then we are the one who is wrong."
"The emperor himself said that the most loved thing in this life is the palace, and the emperor should not be separated from the palace in this life."
Wan Rong didn't expect the emperor to say the same thing to Wan Yun, although she was a little surprised, she instantly figured it out, comforted Wan Yun and said: "Sister, because Wan Ying is gone, the emperor treats us as Wan Ying, and the emperor is talking about you, not you, it's Wan Ying, do you understand?" ”
Wanyun had tears in her eyes, blood dripping from her heart, and she said, "Bengong understands." ”
"Sister, whether you really understand or pretend to understand, we are Wanying's sister to the emperor now, and it is impossible to replace Wanying again, unless you ......"
"Unless anything, sister, say it quickly!"
"Unless the emperor needs us, just like today, the emperor needs us to help him, so that we can sit in the Zichen Hall in a grand manner."
"This is too wronged to yourself!"
"Don't be wronged, when we can't see the emperor for a year, that's when we are really wronged. The whole palace can ride on our heads and do the power, don't you know? ”
"Clear, how can it not be clear!"
"Your mother and my mother don't see their father once a year, on the other hand, Wanying's mother and Aunt Cui live more noble than their wives, just because they stay by their father's side."
Wanyun was also an eye-opener tonight, she didn't expect Wanrong, who was stupid and dull in her impression, to be able to say such a thorough truth.
"Sister, thank you for telling my sister this."
Wan Rong smiled innocently and said: "What is there to thank, before entering the palace, my mother explained to me, my mother has exhausted all her life, and in the end, not only will she be rejected by her father, but even my marriage has been delayed until now." ”
"Aunt Li? Speaking of your mother, this palace also wants to ask you, this palace went to the prison of the criminal department to ransom people last year, and at that time, there were only my mother and Wanfen on the list of the prison of the criminal department, and then I heard that you let a rich businessman surnamed Wang buy it, what is your relationship with him? ”
"Sister, what did you say? You were going to get us out of prison? ”
Wanyun didn't lie, she really wanted to buy out the family at that time, but there was no name on the list of prisoners.
"This piece of the palace also wonders, even if you are redeemed, you should be the Chen family, the mother's family, how can it be the Wang family?"
"I don't understand, my mother said it was a distant relative of our family."
"No wonder!"
"We're okay, poor Aunt Lin's whereabouts are still unknown, Wanying is probably crazy, right?"
Wanyun frowned and said, "It's really strange, how could Aunt Lin lose it?" ”
The more the sisters tugged, the more boundless they became, and they came to the fork of the road as they spoke. Wan Rong took Wan Yun's hand and said: "Yun'er, my father is dead, now the three of us sisters are concubines in the palace, this is also a good thing for the glorious lintel, my sister knows that Wan Ying is back, you are happy and sad, my sister is the same, we were originally to accompany the emperor instead of Wan Ying, and now that Wan Ying is back, we should see our situation clearly, and not let the emperor and Wan Ying be embarrassed, so that we are not embarrassed ourselves." ”
"Sister, Yun'er knows."
"Well, sister might as well say more, Wanying grew up with us, you also know her temperament, the most important thing is love and righteousness, let's seduce the emperor too much, as soon as she came back, she must be uncomfortable; But after a long time, the emperor has been cold to us, and she will definitely not sit idly by. ”
"Sister even thought of this?"
"Do you even need to think about it? We grew up together since childhood, and the family is both prosperous and lossy, and Wanying understands this truth. ”
Wanyun felt a lot of emotion in her heart, in fact, she also had extremely complicated emotions for Wanying, Wanying treated Wanyun very kindly, but Wanyun was more or less envious and jealous of Wanying.
"Sister, Wanying missed the queen's position this time, my sister is a little lost in her heart, the three of us sisters, no matter who wins the queen, it is the glory of the master's family."
"Sister......" Wanyun faced Wanrong tonight, a little ashamed.
"Wanying is in a difficult and embarrassing situation now, we can help, we must help her. The emperor's side, it's best to do what to do, don't embarrass the emperor, you laugh at your sister and pretend to be stupid, or be coquettish and stupid, my sister doesn't mind! The emperor has changed, and my sister doesn't want the emperor to think that my sister has also changed, otherwise it will really be over. ”
"Thank you, sister, Yun'er understands."
"It's good to understand, it's not early, my sister will go back and settle down early. Sister Ming'er went to Wanying Palace to be lively, so you can go with you. ”
Wanyun didn't know if it was okay, so she only said: "It's dark and windy, my sister is careful of the road under her feet." ”
The two sisters separated, Mo'er and a little palace maid each caught up with their master.
