Chapter 124: No One Is to Blame
The matter of the people's daughter's complaint against her father-in-law for forcible occupation soon spread in the capital, and rumors began to spread in the palace.
The queen looked at the portrait of King Xuan, thinking of her son, but smiled ruthlessly: "I didn't expect the prince to choose to do it at this time." ”
"How does the queen mother think that it is the hand of the eldest brother? He is now touring the south, but he is not in the capital. Zhuohua, who was standing on the side, was puzzled, and even if the prince did it, he couldn't get any evidence.
The queen carefully put away the portrait before looking at her and sneering: "Don't you think Lou Yan is helping the prince?" ”
Zhuohua pursed her lips slightly.
The queen walked past her, sat down on the side of the soft collapse, and then said coldly: "This palace knows that you like Lou Yan, but Zhuohua, you have to think clearly, Lou Yan wants to help the prince, that is, against us, even so, do you still want to marry him?" ”
Zhuohua's eyes were slightly cold, and he didn't speak.
Seeing her like this, the queen didn't plan to force her to agree to anything at this time, but said: "Okay, you are also tired of staying here in the palace, your fourth emperor brother is about to return to Beijing recently, you also go to prepare." ”
The queen was a little disgusted, although Zhuohua called her the queen mother, but in her eyes, only her son was pro.
Zhuohua came out of the queen's palace, and the palace maid on one side said in a low voice: "Princess, His Royal Highness King Xiao has sent a message to let you keep an eye on the emperor's emotions." ”
Zhuohua raised his head and looked at the narrow corridor, silent.
Father's current mood must be the worst, it must be worse than the death of Brother Rong, after all, what he cares about most is reputation, but once the matter of Princess Ping is exposed, then he will lose face.
Did Lou Yan deliberately pick this time? Let my father be in such a state, even if he agrees to the reward given to Brother Xiao, I am afraid that he will not remember it.
"How's it going out there?" She asked softly.
The palace maid knew that she was asking about Wei Ruyi's situation: "It seems that she is still preparing for marriage." ”
Zhuohua's palms were slightly tight, and the queen repeatedly made excuses and refused to find a way to talk about her marriage with Lou Yan, so she could only find a way by herself.
In the afternoon, Wei Ruyi asked Xiao Yao to sort out the matter of the people's girl suing her father-in-law outside, and also roughly understood, although the person Lou Yan was looking for this time was a flat-headed person, but he was inextricably linked with the queen inside.
"This family was originally the in-laws of the Liu family, although they have not been in contact for a few generations, but if they dig deeper, this blood relationship is endless."
Xiao Yao told Wei Ruyi everything he had found out, and Wei Ruyi listened to it and nodded: "Very good, don't meddle in this matter anymore, the emperor will start investigating soon." ”
"The slave understands." Xiao Yao nodded solemnly.
Wei Ruyi saw that he had explained these things, and waited for the emperor's summons with peace of mind.
As expected, early the next morning, news came from the palace, saying that Concubine Roujia missed Wei Ruyi, a righteous daughter, and summoned her into the palace to serve her.
Zhiyu picked out a light cyan wide-sleeved palace skirt for her, dignified and elegant, and not too ostentatious, Wei Ruyi simply pulled her hair in a bun, and put two hairpins on the left and right, and went with the people who came to the palace to deliver the decree.
On the way there, Wei Ruyi also asked about the situation of Concubine Roujia, but the people in this palace didn't seem to hear it, and they didn't pay attention to her for a minute.
When he arrived at the palace gate, Wei Ruyi did not get off the sedan chair, but was carried all the way, and Mu Ying and Zhiyu were also stopped outside.
The sedan chair was bumpy all the way, and Wei Ruyi simply calmed down, until she was a little sleepy, and the sedan chair finally stopped.
"Princess Jinghe, please come inside."
The voice was cold, not even a hint of politeness.
Wei Ruyi lifted the sedan curtain and looked at the dilapidated gate in front of him, where is the palace of the concubine, it clearly looks like a secret prison somewhere in the palace.
She pretended to be panicked and said, "What about the concubine? ”
"The princess will find out when she goes in." The eunuch seemed to be a little dissatisfied, and Wei Ruyi also got off the sedan chair with a frightened look.
She actually knew what was waiting for her.
As soon as she entered, the dilapidated door was slammed shut from the outside, and she seemed frightened, and turned to bang on the door, but no one responded.
"Concubine Niangniang?" She began to shout tentatively, and finally, someone came out of the back room, saw her and said lightly, "Come in." ”
Wei Ruyi recognized him as Xiao Fuzi, the apprentice of Gao Gonggong.
Xiao Fuzi squeezed her eyes at her, Wei Ruyi understood, and walked over slowly.
When he passed by Xiao Fuzi's side, he heard him whisper in the voices of only two people: "Don't be afraid. ”
Wei Ruyi knew that Brother Yan must have arranged it in advance, so he was naturally not afraid, so he only walked slowly to the back room with his skirt.
When I entered, I saw a one-man portrait in the center of the hall, and the person in the portrait was the late Princess Ping.
"It's ......"
Wei Ruyi was puzzled, so he heard an extremely cold voice coming: "Don't you know?" ”
"It's a little familiar, but I can't seem to remember where I've seen it......" Wei Ruyi didn't completely deny it, the emperor was a human spirit, and he would see that there was a slight mistake with him.
Wei Ruyi pretended to be stupid, and the emperor only blushed and shouted angrily: "Wei Ruyi, you still dare to deceive me!" ”
Wei Ruyi was startled, and hurriedly looked up at him with a blank expression: "The courtiers deceived the emperor somewhere." ”
"Where? You say that you don't recognize Princess Ping, aren't you lying to me? Wei Ruyi, do you know that bullying the monarch is a capital crime, and I can not only kill you, but also connect your nine clans! ”
The emperor shouted angrily, and after speaking, his face was already red from excitement, but Wei Ruyi's face was panicked, but he still looked dazed: "Princess Ping has long been dead, and the courtiers really haven't seen Princess Ping, let alone know each other." Please also ask the emperor to find out and return the courtier's innocence. ”
Wei Ruyi knelt down, his hand lying on the ground, revealing the bright gold bracelet on his wrist.
The gold bracelet was given by the first emperor, and it was given to her by the old concubine, the emperor saw this gold bracelet, his face turned blue, and he immediately walked a few steps to the side, and then said coldly: "It's really not you?" ”
"The courtiers are really frightened, and I don't know who spread such a rumor that the courtiers know a deceased person." Wei Ruyi said in a panic.
The emperor sneered: "I gave you a chance, since you don't want it, then don't blame me." Bring people in! ”
The emperor drank coldly, Wei Ruyi is still calm, as long as she doesn't admit it, with the old concubine's will, the emperor will not easily treat herself.
But she was negligent.
Mrs. Wei was carried up, and the knife pierced her stomach at the beginning, although Wei Ruyi instructed the doctor to cook well, but at her age, she couldn't stand it, and when she was carried up, her whole face was very white, her eye sockets were black, and she was deeply sunken, as if she hadn't slept for several nights.
Wei Ruyi didn't understand, how could the emperor bring her, after all, she was already a mute.
"Wei Ruyi, you are really more powerful than I thought, at a young age, not only can you feed your own grandmother dumb medicine, but you can also see death without help." The emperor said coldly, his tone already carrying murderous intent.
Wei Ruyi raised his head to meet his gaze and said softly: "The courtiers are frightened, the gangsters rushed into the Wei Mansion that day, and the courtiers really didn't expect that the grandmother would still run out of a safe place despite all the advice." As for the dumb medicine, the courtiers had not fed it, but it was the Heart Protector Pill at that time. ”
"Heart Protector?" The emperor questioned, Wei Ruyi took out a small bottle from his sleeve, and said, "The raw materials of the Heart Protecting Pill are made of fresh leaves of the fairy spirit fruit, which is extremely precious, and there are only two left in the hands of the courtiers now. This medicine can protect people from death for a month, as long as the grandmother's injury can improve within a month, it will be fine. ”
The emperor looked at the medicine in her hand before asking her, "What about her mute?" ”
"Xu is grandmother also misunderstood Ruyi and refused to speak up." Wei Ruyi said lightly, but Old Madam Wei immediately struggled to get up, shouting at her.
The emperor glanced at the imperial doctor on one side, and the imperial doctor understood, and after stepping forward to check the pulse, he shook his head: "It is true that there are no traces of dumb medicine." ”
The Emperor fell silent.
Wei Ruyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and listened to him again: "Then your grandmother wrote a letter by hand, proving that you knew Princess Ping at all, and even talked to the prince about Princess Ping in the palace, what happened?" It's hard to be your own grandmother, and it's going to hurt you ......."
Before the emperor's words fell, Wei Ruyi raised his hand to cover his face and began to cry, tears flowing, as if he didn't want money, and he cried breathlessly.
The emperor's eyebrows twisted slightly, but Old Madam Wei looked at Wei Ruyi resentfully, struggling to point at her and shout.
Wei Ruyi finally choked up at this time and said: "Your Majesty, grandmother is Ruyi's own grandmother, even if she is telling her mouth now, Ruyi will admit it." Although Ruyi didn't understand why the emperor kept asking Princess Ping, if it was because of this matter, the emperor wanted to punish Ruyi, so punish it. ”
The emperor was silent.
She cried like this, and kept saying that she didn't know at all, where did ordinary women have such endurance?
His face became a little darker, and the atmosphere in the room was so oppressive that it was almost breathless, and the emperor looked at her and said coldly: "I asked you one last time, do you recognize it?" ”
"Confession. Ruyi is now lonely and alone, I thought that my father didn't love Ruyi, and my mother didn't want Ruyi, Ruyi also had an old lady and an adoptive father and mother, but now it seems that Ruyi is not worthy of being hurt, Ruyi is as they say, it is a natural disaster star woo woo woo ......"
Wei Ruyi cried so hard that both handkerchiefs were soaked, and then he looked at the emperor pitifully with a sob: "Your Majesty, can you borrow a handkerchief from Ruyi?" "She is really sad, in two lifetimes, she has worked so hard, but she still can't let all her relatives understand her, and she can't get their affection, even if it's not her who is wrong.
The emperor looked at her as a little girl, his brows wrinkled even harder, but Gao Gonggong hurriedly took out his handkerchief and handed it to her: "The princess doesn't dislike it, just use the old slave's." ”
"Thank you, Grandpa Gao." Wei Ruyi pulled it over, wiped his nose and tears, and then asked the emperor with red eyes: "Your Majesty, if you also feel that Ruyi is unlucky, withdraw Ruyi's title, and drive Ruyi home." Anyway, my father and grandmother thought I was a disaster......"
The emperor had never seen that girl's family cry so much in his life, and the women in the harem, he glared at him, and he could only swallow it in his stomach.
His anger subsided a little, and he looked at Old Madam Wei again, watching her thin hand stretch out towards Wei Ruyi like a demon claw stretched out from hell, and his heart did feel a little colder.
He had heard some about the Wei family, and he knew even more about who Wu Ninghou was.
"I will find out about this matter, but until we find out, you can live in the Roujia Palace for the time being." After the emperor finished speaking coldly, he walked away, leaving Old Madam Wei still screaming hoarsely and ugly in her throat.
When the people left, Xiao Fuzi walked in, saw that Wei Ruyi was still kneeling, and hurriedly helped her up: "The slave didn't expect that the princess didn't have anything to do, and in the past, anyone who was brought here for questioning didn't get out alive." ”
Wei Ruyi glanced at the deserted palace, and then saw that Mrs. Wei was carried away, and then blinked her eyes lightly and said with a clear gaze: "If it weren't for the emperor's scruples, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to get out today." She touched the gold bracelet on her wrist, remembered the old lady's kind and comforting appearance, her heart was sour, and she also walked to the Roujia Palace.
After the emperor left, he hesitated for a long time.
It's not that he didn't think about the punishment, firstly, such a thing happened to the people, which made him very angry, and secondly, he also wanted to see where Lou Yan's bottom line was, but the gold bracelet that the old lady rewarded her, and the special care that the old lady treated her, always made him hesitate. Since it is the person that the old lady fancies, it should not be such a scheming person, such as Roujia.
"Is the concubine okay?" The Emperor asked coldly.
"After the concubine returned to the palace, she was sick all the time, and she refused to drink the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctors, and only ate some porridge every day." Gao Gonggong said cautiously.
The emperor smiled: "I am still willing to eat, which means that I am not so hateful." ”
"Then the emperor wants to go and see the concubine?" Gao Gonggong said tentatively.
The emperor stopped and thought about it, and turned around to Roujia's palace, but in the end he still didn't go: "Let's wait until she thinks it through." If she can't think about it for the rest of her life, then I don't bother to see her again. "Let's go with that.
When Wei Ruyi came, Rou Jia was sitting on the bed, her long black hair hanging down behind her, and she was sitting with a dull gaze, not knowing what she was thinking.
Wei Ruyi came over to salute, Rou Jia's eyelids finally moved, raised her head and saw her red eyes, and said softly: "Crying? ”
"Eyes in the sand." Wei Ruyi explained.
Rou Jia didn't speak, and after a while, another imperial doctor came to ask for peace, but was driven away by Rou Jia with a cold face.
After the imperial doctor left, Rou Jia let Wei Ruyi sit on the edge of her bed and said softly, "You can prescribe medicine for me." ”
"Don't worry, the emperor asked Ruyi to stay in your palace temporarily, and Ruyi will always be with you during this time." Wei Ruyi said vaguely, Rou Jia is a transparent person, and she immediately understood the reason, and couldn't help but show a little ridicule: "I didn't think about it at the beginning, it turned out that the rumor was true." His own son can also do it, no wonder the minister who has been loyal to him all his life can also be ......"
"!"
Wei Ruyi immediately interrupted her, looked at the palace maid standing in the room, and said softly, "You all go and wait outside." ”
"Yes." The palace maids responded in unison, and only one of them retreated.
Wei Ruyi looked at Rou Jiadao, who had no desire to survive: "Since Niangniang knows that there is no one in Zhenguo Mansion, why can't she just go silent, and she should also plan for her future." ”
Roujia looked at her, her nose was slightly sour, but she only glanced away and didn't speak.
After a while, it was rumored that the queen had arrived.
Wei Ruyi hurriedly got up, and the queen arrived, accompanied by Zhuohua.
When Zhuo Hua saw Wei Ruyi standing here intact, he was first surprised, and then indifferent.
The queen only smiled and said, "Sister Roujia has been getting better lately?" Although something happened at home, it was better to mourn earlier, otherwise it would delay serving the emperor, but it would be a loss of duty. ”
When Rou Jia heard this, she immediately became sarcastic: "Serve him? ”
"Niangniang is naturally going to serve, but you are a concubine." Wei Ruyi saw that Rou Jia was about to cause trouble, and immediately reversed his words.
"But there are some bad rumors outside the Zhenguo Mansion that there is an accident, but now it seems that Sister Roujia didn't believe those words. In this way, even if the old general died unjustly, but in the end he died in the line of duty. ”
The queen continued, but every word was provoking Roujia and inducing her to say something rebellious, so that the emperor would never show mercy to his subordinates again.
Roujia's face tensed, and her hands clutched the brocade quilt.
Why didn't she know that her grandfather and father and brother had an accident this time, and the emperor acquiesced behind his back? It's just that she can't do anything now!
The queen saw that she couldn't help it, her lips raised sarcastically, and she turned her head and instructed the palace maid behind her: "Seeing that the concubine's illness has improved a lot, the emperor used to like the concubine the most, and the emperor has not been in a good mood recently, you go and prepare some soup and send it to the Heart Cultivation Palace, just say that it is the concubine's mother's intention." After speaking, he deliberately walked up to Roujia and said, "Good sister, I can't help you anything, I can only help you try to please the emperor, and live up to the emperor's favor for you......"
Roujia is already on the verge of breaking out at this time, pampering? The emperor's favor is just a deal to make her father and brother obedient, and now she is still letting her please her father's killer, how can she endure it!
"Imperial ......"
"Niangniang, aren't you tired from drinking medicine just now? The emperor tells you to rest well, and it is impossible to work hard. Wei Ruyi stepped forward and pretended to fold the quilt for her, but actually held her hand.
Rou Jia's hands were trembling slightly, and Wei Ruyi could feel her anger and powerlessness at this time, and she could also empathize.
But she slowly calmed down.
Now if she tears her face with the emperor, in addition to being snubbed forever or even being beaten into the cold palace, she will no longer be able to avenge her father and brother.
The queen looked at the situation that was about to kill Rou Jia and was disturbed by Wei Ruyi, and her face slowly turned cold: "Princess Jinghe cares about the concubine's sister very much. ”
"The concubine is the adoptive mother of the courtiers, and the courtiers are filial piety in front of them, which is not only the emperor's order, but also the courtier's obligation." Wei Ruyi got up and stood up, and quietly mentioned that the emperor asked her to stay here.
The queen smiled slightly, raised her hand and grabbed her shoulder, almost buttoning her nails in, but chuckled: "It's really a filial daughter, the old lady really didn't misunderstand you, but it's a pity that she went early." ”
"Yes, but there is a gold bracelet left by the old lady as a memory, and the courtiers can also chat to comfort their thoughts." Wei Ruyi lowered his eyes and smiled lightly.
The first emperor's gold bracelet is now her talisman!
The queen gritted her teeth slightly, and couldn't find the words to refute for a while, so she only gently pushed her away, and grabbed a piece of her skin and flesh by the way, and then smiled lightly: "Then you are really blessed." ”
"The mother is too famous." Wei Ruyi lowered her eyebrows and said pleasing to her eyes, this is the palace, no better than outside the palace, she can't tear her face with the queen at this time.
Zhuohua stepped forward to help the queen and chuckled: "The queen mother likes Ruyi so much, why don't you wait for her to be free in the past two days, let her go to your palace to sit and sit, and also accompany you to relieve your boredom." ”
"Okay." The queen responded, and Wei Ruyi's palms tightened slightly: "When the concubine is better, the courtiers will not postpone it." ”
"My sister is like this now, she is bored, and she is invited to sit in the palace of Ming'er, and this disease will naturally be cured." The queen said coldly, Wei Ruyi still wants to find an excuse not to go? Don't look at the harem now, whose territory it is!
The queen snorted coldly and left, Zhuo Hua took a step behind, and looked at Wei Ruyi with a smile: "In this harem, it is not as good as the Wei Mansion, so many people can protect you." ”
Wei Ruyi bent his eyes and smiled: "Yes, although Princess Zhuohua's biological mother died early, fortunately she is blessed by Concubine Xian, and Ruyi will not have the blessing of a princess." ”
Speaking of Concubine Xian, Zhuo Hua always felt that Wei Ruyi had guessed something, but seeing that her eyes were clear and she didn't have any emotion, she only smiled reluctantly before leaving.
As soon as she left, Wei Ruyi gasped, and hurriedly called someone in to bandage the wound on her shoulder for her, this queen, why does she like to pinch people like an old witch?
But looking at her yin and yang weirdness now, isn't she an old witch?
Wei Ruyi scolded in his heart, and his face was only inconspicuous.
Rou Jia heard the sound of Wei Ruyi's continuous gasping in the compartment, and saw the blood and water brought out by the palace maids, and her palms tightened slightly.
When Lou Yan received the news from the palace, he was finally willing to let people serve the food.
Mu Yun also smiled with the second master: "If Miss Wei is injured today, I am afraid that I will not be able to starve to death and be martyred." ”
"Is this martyrdom? Xiao Yan, you listen to the second master, the second master has prepared a lot of handsome men and beautiful women for you, don't worry......" The second master smiled obscenely, Lou Yan raised his hand and dialed the food, separating himself from theirs, and then deaf to the deaf ears and ate slowly.
The enthusiasm of the second master was like being poured cold water, and he turned his head to look at Mu Yun: "Then do you want it?" ”
"Don't, Second Master, you should keep it for yourself, after all, you haven't married a wife in your life, and you always need something." Mu Yun refused, the second master's face turned red, and as soon as the chopsticks were put down, he got up and twisted Mu Yun's ears.
Lou Yan calmly finished eating, and Ah Zhong had already sent back the news outside.
After the woman complained, because her father-in-law was involved with her uncle Liu's family, Jing Zhaoyin already planned to transfer the case to Dali Temple. But Dali Temple Cheng has been seriously ill at home these days, and Shaoqing of Dali Temple has also taken leave to go back, and Jing Zhaoyin plans to transfer it to the Criminal Department. However, Master Ma of the Criminal Department fell out of bed last night in his sleep, and now he is in a coma......"
Speaking of this, Ah Zhong couldn't help but laugh. When I think of Jing Zhaoyin's anxious appearance, and then think about the way Bowz has changed from being arrogant at the beginning to being afraid to avoid it now, I feel more and more funny.
Mu Yun continued: "If that's the case, then you can just give the emperor a concert." ”
"I'm afraid the emperor won't be willing to try it." Ayi thought disdainfully.
Lou Yan had already expected this to be the case, so there was a second step in the plan.
"Mu Yun, this time you go to do it, you must be foolproof."
After Lou Yan finished speaking softly, he looked at the sky outside, the sun was no longer hot, and after a heavy rain, the weather began to get cooler. But autumn is short-lived, and when autumn passes, it's winter.
Yun Mian, the only son of the Ministry of Rites, has begun to appear in the capital again these days, and since the original incident, he has been irritable for a long time, and later found that there may be a medicine that can cure him.
While he was wandering around the capital, he ordered a strong man to come over, because of the medicine, he also needed to transplant someone else's thing.
Walking and walking, suddenly a hurried person collided with him, he was angry and wanted to scold, but saw the dark-clothed man walking away in a hurry, so he didn't scold, but the little guy on the side suddenly pointed to the ground and said, "Childe, what is this?" ”
"What's that?" Yun Mian let people pick it up, and when he saw an unsigned letter, he sneered: "It must have been the man who fell just now, seeing that he was in a hurry, he must have done nothing good, I want to see what happened to the thing that didn't have long eyes." ”
He opened the letter leisurely, read it quickly, didn't react the first time, and sneered: "It's another ugly thing of my father-in-law robbing his daughter-in-law......
When the words fell, he was stunned, what was written here, how could Princess Ping be taken away by the emperor?
His hand shook, the letters fell to the ground, and the little guy on the side hurriedly asked him, "Childe, what's wrong?" ”
"This, this, this ......" Yun Mian's mouth trembled, this fear was the same as when he knew that his life and roots had been cut off.
He looked back at the man who had disappeared, and wanted to run away, but he thought, if that person was the emperor or the king of Ping, they knew that they had discovered this secret, where would he still live?
"Let's go, go back to my father." Yun Mian hurriedly picked up the letter, and flew to the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Rites.
In the dark, Mu Yun watched him leave, and then said to the little servants on the side: "Spread the word, let's say that Lord Shangshuyun of the Ministry of Rites has discovered the secret of Princess Ping's disappearance back then, and has already grasped the evidence that she was taken away." ”
There is no one more suitable to deal with such a thing than the Ministry of Rites, and when the time comes, the emperor just wants to hide it, but he can't hide it.
Soon, after Jing Zhaoyin ran into a wall in Dali Temple and the Criminal Department, he finally sent a letter to the emperor's desk about the woman's forcible occupation by her father-in-law.
In the early dynasty, when the emperor opened the concerto, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood in the hall, but Jing Zhaoyin didn't believe that the emperor had really done anything to kidnap Princess Ping, so he stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to do!" ”
Yun Shangshu looked at Jing Zhaoyin, his face was very complicated.
The emperor didn't squeak, and the Gao Gong Guild on the side said: "The emperor is unwell, retire from the court earlier today, and the adults should retreat." ”
When Jing Zhaoyin heard this, he only frowned, stepped forward and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Weichen has something to do!" ”
The emperor became more and more annoyed, but he couldn't show it, so he only looked at him with cold eyes: "Aiqing's matter, can you talk about it later?" ”
But this matter has been widely spread among the people, and it also involves the reputation of the emperor and the queen's mother, and Weichen really doesn't dare to delay any longer. Moreover, this matter was personally sent to the government by General Bao, and Weichen did not dare to slack off. ”
Bowz is now eager to die headlong, and now he should have gone to the south to be a general with infinite scenery, but since this case, the emperor who went to the south directly reassigned someone else, and he was still the unknown young general.
The emperor coldly glanced at Bao Zi, who had an annoyed face, before he said, "Then you go to the Heart Cultivation Hall and say, I will drink the medicine first." With that, he got up and was about to leave.
Seeing this, Lord Yun also gritted his teeth and stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the ministers also have something to play." "The letter has been delivered, and it has spread outside, if you pretend that nothing has happened, with the emperor's suspicion, maybe one day your head will move.
The emperor was obviously a little unhappy: "It seems that the Aiqing are all very attentive to handling the case for me. ”
After speaking, he glanced at Lou Yan: "I'm tired, since Aiqing has so many things, then leave it all to the national teacher, I believe that the national teacher will be able to do it clearly and clearly for me, right?" ”
Lou Yan was waiting for him.
He stepped forward to respond, and the emperor smiled lightly: "Deal with it earlier, your wedding date with Princess Jinghe will come soon, I don't want to delay your marriage." ”
Lou Yan knew that he was threatening himself with Ruyi, but this matter, he was imperative!
Early the next morning, Wei Ruyi was picked up by the queen's people, and Rou Jia was also there, but her complexion still looked calm.
Wei Ruyi was a little worried that the queen would provoke Rou Jia to say something inappropriate for a while, after all, the queen's character is really insidious, and this harem is now her territory, once Rou Jia says half an inappropriate word, it will be over.
"Mother, ...... in a moment"
"I know what I know." Rou Jia spoke softly, looked at her deliberately, and said, "The harem is not where you should stay, you should leave the palace earlier." ”
Wei Ruyi also wanted to get out of the palace, she didn't sleep much last night, she was thinking, but after calculation, it was impossible for the emperor to let go of his handle to blackmail Lou Yan so early.
"Don't worry."
Rou Jia faintly said two words, Wei Ruyi didn't react yet, and the person had already arrived at the gate of the queen's palace.
The weather is a little gloomy today, and after entering the autumn, there will be more heavy rains, one after another, Wei Ruyi was worried that it would rain for a while, so he asked the palace maid to come forward and reply.
Unexpectedly, the grandmother guarding the palace gate said directly: "The queen hasn't woken up yet, and the concubine and princess have come too early, so let's wait a while." ”
She didn't have a half-negotiable tone when she said this, and it was clear that the queen was going to stand up.
Roujia did not turn around and leave without putting the queen in her eyes as before, but stood silently until the gloomy clouds finally turned into a torrential rain and fell on people, and it was very cold.
Wei Ruyi was worried about Roujia's body, and wanted to ask someone to go back to the palace to get an umbrella, but when she saw a palace maid coming out of it, she said: "This god is crying for the dead general of Zhenguofu, the queen mother said, God also pities the concubine Niangniang so much, and the concubine Niangniang should bear it well." ”
Roujia still didn't refute, and stood quietly.
"But the concubine is not in good health...... Wei Ruyi thought that at least she would be a concubine and make an umbrella, but the palace maid looked at her with a sneer: "Niangniang said that Princess Jinghe is a blessed person, since God has mercy, the queen also wants to ask you for a favor, you shouldn't refuse." ”
Wei Ruyi smiled on her face: "The courtier's ability is limited, I'm afraid that I won't be able to help the queen too much." ”
"It helps. The queen said that His Royal Highness King Xuan has passed away for a long time, and she always dreams of him, Xu is soul has never returned, since Princess Jinghe is a blessed person, it is better to kneel at the gate of this palace now, and recite the mantra for His Royal Highness King Xuan a few times. Princess Jinghe is notoriously smart, and she copied the scriptures for the old lady, should you take this little thing. ”
After the palace maid finished speaking, two strong mothers-in-law on her side slowly stepped forward, and it seemed that Wei Ruyi would press her to kneel if she didn't agree.
Wei Ruyi knew that the queen wanted to take revenge on herself, so she smiled: "It's true that there will be no death spells, but there will be some other spells." ”
"Then you can kneel down and carry your back!"
However, the courtiers wore a gold bracelet rewarded by the first emperor on their hands, and they could kneel down to worship today, but they would never dare to bow down to others at will. What the queen wants is just for the courtiers to recite a mantra for His Royal Highness King Xuan, and the courtiers believe that sincerity is spirituality, and the Bodhisattvas in the sky will not be surprised if they stand and chant the heavens. Wei Ruyi said again.
The palace maid didn't know how to answer by her crooked reasoning, so she only said, "Then please ask the princess to read it first." After speaking, I hurried to ask the queen.
Wei Ruyi also cleared his throat, raised the corners of his mouth, and began to talk nonsense loudly: "His Royal Highness King Xuan, since you are dead, go to the West Heaven Bliss as soon as possible." If you don't go to reincarnation, you will fall into the six realms of reincarnation. I don't know what the six realms of reincarnation are, I think Marshal Tianpeng fell into the six realms and was reincarnated into a pig, don't you think so...... Amitabha Buddha is good, good......"
When she shouted this, everyone was stunned, what kind of scripture is this?
Rou Jia only smiled faintly, the heavier the rain, the brighter Wei Ruyi's voice became, and the queen who was drinking tea almost didn't rush out to strangle her!
After a while, the palace maid ran out with a swollen face and red eyes, and glared at Wei Ruyi before saying, "Niangniang said, please let the concubine and the princess in." ”
Wei Ruyi: "No, I haven't finished reading it yet, I'm only reading half of it, what if His Royal Highness King Xuan still refuses to leave?" "It's easy for her to ask God, but it's hard for God to send God.
After speaking, Wei Ruyi read it out loud again.
The queen finally walked out in person, Wei Ruyi stopped the words in her mouth, and said: "Niangniang, the concubine's clothes are wet, and she should be sick when she turns around, so let her go back and change her clothes first, the courtiers are so blessed, and the courtiers are here to give His Royal Highness King Xuan an excess." ”
The queen heard her mention the word 'excess' and her teeth itched, but thinking that the time was almost up, and soon the emperor would come down, so she asked Roujia: "If the concubine is angry with the palace, then go back first." ”
Wei Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief, but listened to Rou Jia herself: "How dare the concubine be angry with the queen, this heavy rain is a gift from God, and it is too late for the concubine to be grateful." After speaking, he caught a glimpse of a figure walking slowly from the corner of his eye, and chuckled harmlessly: "Besides, the fathers and brothers all sacrificed their lives for the country, and the concubines didn't understand, how could they be angry indiscriminately." ”
The queen was slightly cold: "You're not angry? It's your father and brother who are dead. ”
"Father and brother once taught their concubines that it is glorious for a man to sacrifice his life for the country. It's too late for the concubine to be proud, although she is sad, but the mother has experienced the pain of losing a child, and she should be able to understand the concubine. After Rou Jia finished speaking, seeing the unwillingness in the queen's eyes, she stepped forward and said softly: "It is His Royal Highness King Xuan, who died because of the slaughter of the villagers, and it is right for Niangniang to ask Ruyi to recite the mantra for him, but it is necessary to invite more monks who have attained the Tao, otherwise King Xuan will fall into the animal ......."
"You are presumptuous!"
The queen was angry and pushed her away. But I didn't expect that Rou Jia, who knew some fist and foot kung fu, would be so weak that she was pushed like this and fell directly to the ground.
"Concubine!" The Emperor didn't hear Roujia's last words, only to see the Empress go into a rage and push her to the ground, drenched in rags.
After so many years of pampering, it is not fake to say that he likes it at all, and Roujia is hearty and straightforward, and she is the only woman who makes him feel relaxed.
The most important thing is that Roujia said that she does not blame anyone for the death of her father and brother.
When the queen saw the emperor with a calm face, she was stunned: "Your Majesty, the concubines ......"
"You are really a good queen of me, I was not at peace in the previous dynasty, and you also caused trouble for me in the harem!" The emperor scolded, and then asked someone to help Rou Jialai, but seeing her weak appearance, he couldn't help but feel distressed: "You are not in good health, why did you come out?" ”
"It was the queen mother who was worried that the concubine's illness was stuffy, so she specially took the concubine out to relax." Roujia's palace maid seized the opportunity and said immediately.
The emperor's face is black, scattered? She's going to kill Roujia.
The queen still wanted to argue, but seeing the disgusted gaze of the emperor when he looked at her, she swallowed all her words back and said, "It's the concubine who didn't think about it." Since the concubine's sister is not in good health, let's go back and rest early, so as not to worry the emperor. After speaking, he stared at Wei Ruyi with extremely cold eyes: "It's that Princess Jinghe just recited the mantra for Xuan'er is very good, and the concubine wants to keep her to recite it a few more times, I don't know if it's okay." ”
At the mention of King Xuan, the emperor was bored again, glanced at Wei Ruyi, nodded and agreed.
Wei Ruyi was secretly anxious, the queen might have some kind of ghost idea to harm herself.
"That being the case, ask Ruyi to go to my palace to read, it just so happens that the concubine also has the idea of copying a few scriptures." Roujia took the emperor's hand and said gently.
The emperor was originally annoyed by the affairs of the previous dynasty, but when he came back and saw that Rou Jia was so obedient and sensible, his mood naturally improved a lot, and he only nodded: "That's fine, but don't work too hard for your concubine." ”
After speaking, the emperor gave her his umbrella and said, "Go and rest early." ”
"Yes." Rou Jia lowered her eyes and responded gently, Wei Ruyi looked at her who was obedient now, and then thought of the proud and straightforward Rou Jia before, and sighed secretly in her heart.
From now on, there is no Roujia as before, and now she not only does not compromise in her bones, but she is afraid that she still has very terrifying ideas, but the emperor must not know that the gentle little sheep in front of him has been forced by him to become a bloodthirsty wolf.
