Things are man-made, and everything is fate!

"I, born like duckweed, can only drift by water, in this palace ordered to be cautious, like walking on thin ice, but I am not happy on this kind of day, since this is the case, please let me go." Wan Yue's face was stubborn, unquestionable.

"Nope." Gao Yang decisively refused, "Don't be capricious!" ”

"Please let me go, Your Majesty, Wanyue has no other requests."

"In this way, after waiting for half a month, you will be crowned the eldest princess, and you will be titled, so you don't have to be a slave."

"I don't want glory or riches, I just want freedom."

"Don't say any more, I won't let you go, so be it." Gao Yang turned around and left, leaving Wanyue alone on her knees.

Yes, you can't decide your own destiny, and you don't even have the power to be capricious, so let's take it step by step, I'm about to have power, but I can't be happy.

"yes, that's fine." The corners of Wanyue's mouth rose, didn't she dream of what she wanted was power, and now that she was getting closer and closer to the center of power, what else was there to be unhappy about.

She suddenly felt bitter in her mouth, touched her cheeks, and tears flowed down unconsciously, whether it was sadness or joy, she didn't know herself.

Wan Yue walked out, and the prince at the door had been waiting outside for a long time, "Miss Wan Yue, pass on Your Majesty's message, from today onwards, you will first serve in the queen's palace." ”

"The slave obeys." Wan Yue said softly.

As the princess came to the queen's Zhaoyang Palace, the concubines and palace maids knelt on the ground, and the princess led Wanyue to stand at the door waiting for the queen's summons.

"The queen mother is usually tolerant, what's wrong with this one?" The prince followed the little palace maid at the door and said.

"The queen mother was not in good health for a while ago, and she was also deaf to the affairs of the harem, and she began to clean up the harem when she was not in good health, otherwise she would not be in chaos." The little palace maid whispered, although Wanyue didn't want to listen to these words, but the wind still blew into her ears.

She stood at the doorway, looking into the temple,

A woman sat in the hall, wearing a red peony thin hookah mopping the floor, a bright hair all coiled into a Luan Feng Lingyun bun, wearing a phoenix hairpin in the center of her head, a pearl in her ears, and a pearl necklace on her fair and slender neck, full of bright light.

"This palace has always believed that the affairs of the harem should also be governed by inaction, but now there are no more restraints and laissez-faire, and it will really be boundless!"

The phoenix's eyes drooped slightly, and she glanced at the concubines, Wanyue once looked at Li Zu'e from afar, dignified and elegant, gentle and demure, I didn't expect to have such a solemn side.

Concubine Pei knelt on the ground, slowly straightened up, dressed in a butterfly and hundred flowers smoke phoenix tail skirt, her hair was combed into a flying cloud slanted bun, and a bright pink hibiscus flower was obliquely inserted in her ears, and said in a coquettish voice,

"The queen mother is too fuss, and the sisters are also living in harmony, where is there any transgression, if it is just the queen mother's intention to clear the palace, I hope to show it clearly."

Pei Concubine is beautiful, and she is also eclipsed in front of the queen, if the queen is compared to the peony flower with the national color and fragrance, luxurious and atmospheric, she is like a flower that can not be named by the side, the color is gorgeous, after all, it is bewitching.

"Concubine Pei, are you saying that this palace is deliberately finding fault?" The queen changed her previous demure and gentle tone, and became a little more resolute.

"The concubine doesn't dare." Even if Concubine Pei said it, there were many dissatisfactions in her heart, and the other concubines in the back all lowered their heads and didn't dare to make a sound, so it seems that there are not many women in Gaoyang's harem, and there are only five or six people here.

"Pass on my message, Concubine Pei ignored the queen and was grounded in Nanxun Hall for a month." Her words were as calm as water, and everyone present had different expressions after hearing them,

Some laughed at Pei Concubine's arrogance, and some looked like watching the play on the side, right, this is the harem, it's none of your business, just ensure your own interests,

"January? Queen Mother, I'm afraid this won't work~ If Your Majesty summons the concubines to sleep~" Concubine Pei hooked the corners of her mouth and smiled contemptuously,

"There are three thousand beauties in the harem, why worry that Your Majesty has no one to serve, Concubine Pei, you should know that this harem should not be favored by anyone, it should be wet with rain and dew." The queen clenched her fists, Concubine Pei was the first problem she had since she entered the Middle Palace, and no one dared to be so unreasonable.

The queen looked at the concubines, smiled, and said, "Mrs. Hongde, Li Meiren." ”

"The concubine is here." The two ladies bowed their heads respectfully,

"Tonight, Mrs. Hongde will be served, and I hope the two sisters will be considerate and thoughtful."

"The concubine obeys the queen's will."

Since Concubine Pei can't sleep, then support other sensible concubines, this is the way to check and balance.

"It's all gone." The queen was bored to look at the delicate flowers in the palace one after another, their daily life is to compete for beauty, not to make any trouble, she has been turning a blind eye, and now she can no longer sit idly by.

"The concubine retired."

Concubine Pei walked out and saw Wan Yue at the door, Wan Yue met her cold eyes, her eyes as cold as snow made her heart almost in an instant.

The princess looked at the queen who had just been on fire with a smile, and was shocked in his heart, becoming more and more respectful, for fear that the disaster would affect him, and said flatteringly, "Queen Mother, this is what Your Majesty mentioned about Miss Wanyue." ”

The queen looked up and down, and when the princess saw that the queen didn't speak, he retired first, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and people who usually don't get angry easily suddenly lost their temper, which was so terrible.

Feng's eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked at Wan Yue and said, "Do you know why she is so arrogant?" ”

"All she relies on is His Majesty's favor, if she falls out of favor, there will be nothing, and everyone will even step on it." Wanyue is still standing, straightening her back, no more humble than anyone else.

"You should understand that what everyone in this harem relies on is His Majesty's love, do you understand?"

The queen reminded Wan Yue that she couldn't alienate the emperor because of her temporary willfulness, and now Gao Yang is full of guilt in her heart for Wan Yue, so he will try his best to make up for it, so he must control this guilt well.

"The slave and maid understand, thank you for the reminder."

"Since Niangniang has the intention to promote the two Niangniang, why don't you monopolize the emperor's favor yourself?" The little palace maid in a peach-colored gauze dress behind the queen asked puzzledly beside her.

"Red silk, don't say much." Li Zu'e ignored her and turned to leave.

Wan Yue chuckled lightly and looked at Li Zu'e without hesitation, "The queen of the middle palace should naturally be the mother of the world, and she can't be jealous like other concubines." ”

She is the queen, whether she wants to or not, she can't come down when she sits in this position, she still needs to sit in this position, the woman sitting there is to set an example for the women of the world, and she is burdened with a heavy burden, and the women in the harem are all eyeing this position,

She can't have a trace of slackness and a trace of tiredness, otherwise she will be pulled down from this position, and she will not be able to keep her children, as well as the glory and wealth of her family, all on her!

*

Outside the palace, the night is dark, there is no moon, and the stars are like dewdrops on the big lotus leaf shining with crystal light, but the night without moon is always missing something.

An Youju couldn't stop, and came to the inn last time, although it was an inn, the food and pastries were not inferior to the serious restaurant.

"Childe, you're here, why don't you see that little boy?" The shopkeeper recognized An Youju, who was drunk last time, at a glance, and stepped forward enthusiastically.

"You... Recognize me? An Youju pointed at himself in disbelief,

"That's right, the last time the market opened, you brought your little brother to my place to drink, and then both of them got drunk, and the little brother also asked me to boil you egg drop porridge."

patted An Youju, and whispered, "You look like the son of a family, you don't know the world, and you can hatch chicks only when you have rooster eggs in the hen flock, or you can only hatch chicks when you have a shadow in the light, and those you get back are not." ”

An Youju seemed to remember something, that day was the first time in his life that he was drunk, although the amount of alcohol was very shallow, but he never let himself get drunk, and he had to stay sober at all times, and he couldn't lose his temper.

But that day, he didn't remember what he had done, and when he woke up, there was only one egg in his arms, which she said he had to hold, and said that he could hatch chicks.

"It turns out that the store still remembers me~" A goose-yellow shadow came into view, and the autumn-like eyes stared at the surprised two people in front of them.

"Yo~ It turned out to be Mrs. Zun, look at me, who has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai~ What do you want to eat, Madam, the small one will go and prepare it for you."

Wanyue sat quietly beside An Youju, silently,

This shopkeeper sees Wanyue as An Youju's wife, and it is also in this conservative era in ancient times, although nothing happened to them, no one believes it when they say it~

cough, cough dryly, "A lotus crisp, a pot of wine, and two plates of beef, it's okay, General." Wan Yue had a smile on her face, and looked at An Youju with her professional smirk.

"Well, yes, another bowl of egg drop porridge." An Youju said softly, his eyes were full of the smile of Wanyue looking at him, and there was an irresistible force that drove him to indulge in it.

"Okay, you two wait." Xiao Er left, and she felt more comfortable.

"General An has forgotten again, how many chickens will die in this way, ah chickens, it's really pitiful to think about." Wan Yue hid her face and secretly had fun, she wanted to see his wrong and aggrieved expression again, but she forgot that An Youju was not drunk.

"The shopkeeper told me, I can't hatch chicks with anything~" An Youju was silent and said in a half-loud voice, "Miss Wanyue, I was offended a lot just now." ”

"It's okay, it's okay to be wrong, but I should apologize to General An."

"Where to start?"

"When I was in the palace in the morning, I was too harsh and disappointed, and I hope the general will not blame me."

"Naturally not, it's me who doesn't think about it."

"Your Majesty said for a while that he would canonize me as the eldest princess."

"And rightfully so."

"Yes, it's just that this canonization will no longer have a chance to do many things I want to do, and I will have to bear a lot of responsibilities, and slowly waste my time in the deep palace, if General An doesn't dislike it, I am very willing to be friends with General An, what about you, what do you think?"
