Chapter 641 - Hearing the Seal Chapter 642 - Respect and Humility

Hongluan stood quietly beside the emperor, and Yuan Hua, who was kneeling on the ground, could only see a section of her skirt; Although Hongluan was standing on his side, he had avoided Yuan Hua's kneeling, but at the moment, this situation still made the frightened Yuan Hua very uncomfortable; It turned out that she thought that wanting to pinch Hongluan to death was like pinching an ant to death, because Hongluan had nothing to make Yuanhua jealous, and Yuanhua himself had it? Yuan Hua never looked down on herself, with the Empress Dowager and the Shangguan family, she acted and even the emperor didn't have to be too scrupulous.

But now I know that she climbed the wrong backer, and the biggest backer in the world is not the Empress Dowager and the Shangguan family, but the emperor; Maybe the emperor is not the biggest backer now, but this mountain is not small, she really underestimated the emperor too much: at least she should climb the emperor's backer.

How stupid she was to think that the Empress Dowager and the Shangguan family would always stand behind her, and never thought that they would give up on themselves; If she climbed to the emperor's backer early and gained the emperor's trust, then she would definitely make the Shangguan family and the empress dowager jealous, and would not throw her in front of the emperor like this.

Thinking of the benefits that Hongluan was about to get, she deeply regretted the big mistake she had made in her heart: she was a concubine in the palace and the emperor's woman, why didn't she please the emperor like Hongluan? She kowtowed again and tears fell down her sleeves and disappeared into her sleeves, and now she had no chance to regret it.

Although she was pleading, she knew that the best outcome would be a cold palace; But at this time, the cold palace is no longer so terrible, at least it can save her life.

It's just that she still hasn't understood that there is no invincible backer in the world, and the most solid and credible backer is herself.

Hongluan looked at the extremely pitiful Yuan Hua and did not sympathize, because she knew that Yuan Hua's temperament was a latent leopard, as long as she was given a chance to live, she would shed her current pitiful coat and become a fierce beast chasing prey; If she was in charge, she would definitely give Yuanhua a cup of poisoned wine to prevent future troubles.

The ruthlessness of the Shangguan family and the Empress Dowager was really unexpected by her, she originally thought that they would protect Yuanhua, but she didn't expect them to throw Yuanhua in front of the emperor again and let the emperor dispose of it; That's it, she narrowed her eyes: I'm forcing the emperor.

The emperor groaned, obviously the Empress Dowager's move made him a little embarrassed, and after touching his chin a few times, he drank lightly: "Yuanhua, do you really know that you are wrong?" He didn't want to hear Yuan Hua crying anymore, it was really unbearable; Moreover, Yuan Hua was originally very good-looking, and his temperament was also excellent, but at this time, even a palace person was not as good as making the emperor's brows furrow.

Yuan Hua hurriedly kowtowed: "The concubine knows that it is wrong, and the concubine knows that it is wrong." ”

The emperor's hand slid back and forth on the armrest of the chair, slowly: "The Empress Dowager is righteous, and her old man's order should be obeyed; And what you have done is really ......" He shook his head and looked at Yuan Hua: "Bai Aya and poisonous wine, alas" He muttered in a tone as if he was asking Yuan Hua which one to choose.

Yuan Hua cried: "Your Majesty, spare your life, spare your life." In fact, she had long expected that the emperor would push the boat along the river, but she still couldn't accept it when she heard it with her own ears; She doesn't want to die yet, she still wants to be the queen and watch her son ascend to the throne.

The emperor looked at Yuan Hua and sighed: "Your sin The Empress Dowager is not wrong, then it is really a hundred deaths and it is difficult to escape the blame, you must know that the heir is the foundation of the country" When he said this, his tone suddenly changed, and his eyes also looked out of the door: "It's just that the Shangguan family has been loyal and commendable for generations, and they have done their best for the country and the court, and it is not ...... really to send your Shangguan family" He didn't continue, obviously very angry.

Yuan Hua no longer had the Shangguan family at this time, and she didn't care if her behavior was smeared on the face of the Shangguan family: the Empress Dowager had already known her strategy, and the medicine was also brought to her by the Shangguan family, and at this time, all the sins had to be borne by her, how could she not have resentment in her heart? However, she couldn't complain about it, she could only say: "Yuan Hua is ashamed of the emperor, the queen mother, and his father and brother." ”

Hongluan looked at her toes after hearing the emperor's words, she suddenly felt a little tired, I don't know if it was caused by standing for too long today; Behind Yuanhua is the Empress Dowager and the Shangguan family, and the emperor can't ignore it if he wants to deal with her, especially at this time: if she is the emperor, whether she loses the help of the Shangguan family is secondary, and it is the most important thing to never let the Shangguan family and Concubine Li and others come together; Therefore, Yuanhua's life must be worry-free.

She had long expected that she had originally planned to make Yuanhua miss the back position, and she would have room for self-preservation; It's just that seeing with my own eyes that Yuanhua, who was cornered, can still survive, it's really not a happy thing.

The emperor continued to sigh: "The Empress Dowager is very old, and she has always loved you, how can I do something unfilial to break her heart?" He stared at Yuan Hua: "If it weren't for the Empress Dowager, if it weren't for the fact that your father and brother were the ministers of my humerus, I would never spare you!" His words were extremely cold.

After finishing speaking, he let out a long breath: "Yuanhua, listen to the seal." At this time, it should have been the time to send Yuanhua, but the emperor said the word "listening to the seal", which was really beyond everyone's expectations.

The meaning of the emperor's words to spare Yuanhua is clear to even Yuanhua himself, even Yuanhua knows that even if he is exempted from capital crimes, he still has a living crime to suffer: how can he not be punished for such a big wrongdoing? So when she heard that the emperor was going to canonize her, she looked up in surprise and completely forgot to thank her.

"Yuanhua, I named you a talented person, Haoning." He also ignored Yuan Hua's head and finished speaking.

The expression on Yuan Hua's face has become extremely complicated: of course she is happy to be able to save her life without going to the cold palace, and she didn't have too many extravagant expectations; But the emperor surprised her at this time, but she still had ecstasy, and suddenly thought that the emperor treated her differently; But when she was named a talented person and gave her a title, the feeling of humiliation hit her heart.

Her original Liangdi's rank was the fourth grade, and it stands to reason that when the new emperor ascended the throne and canonized the concubines of the East Palace, each of them would carry a position; But her position didn't enter, and she was actually demoted to the fifth grade. She will be punished for her mistakes, but the ceremony is not in front of her, and at that time, as long as she is still a concubine in the East Palace, she can still be promoted.

But the emperor has sealed her now, not to mention the punishment, but also a heavy punishment, and this face will be lost; And she understands the meaning of that title, that is, let her not make trouble again, but "Ning", I believe that everyone who knows today's details knows the meaning of this title.

Seeing that she didn't speak, the emperor lowered his face very displeased: "What, are you dissatisfied?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.

Chapter 642: Respect and Humility

Yuanhua Muran kowtowed and thanked him: "The guilty concubine Yuanhua thanked Lord Longen." "Where is this reward, it is clearly a punishment, and it is a punishment that makes her unable to raise her head; At the same time, she was given amnesty to the world at the ceremony, and she was exempted from punishment because of this, and naturally she would not be given a place again; Unless she waits until she gives birth to a son and a daughter, or when she makes a great achievement, neither of these things is highly likely for her now.

Hongluan's heart finally came a lot, Yuan Hua was honest, a concubine would not be able to run away, and it was very likely that for the sake of the Empress Dowager, she would be canonized as a concubine; But now Yuanhua has only won the position of a talented person from the fifth grade.

From the fact that Wupin is not only talented, but also beautiful and beautiful, and the talented person is the last, it can be seen that the emperor is also extremely angry with Yuanhua.

The emperor nodded lightly at this time, and tapped his fingers twice on the arm of the chair: "Well, the reward for you is because of the Empress Dowager and the merits of the Shangguan family in the past dynasties, if you have ...... again, you don't need to order you to take three feet of white silk to apologize." After he finished speaking, he looked at Yuan Hua and kowtowed, and continued: "The seal has been sealed, but I can't go unpunished for your mistakes—how can the foundation of the country not give everyone a warning?" Although I will not tell the world about your fault, there are not many people who know what you have done. ”

"I will not tolerate a second time like this," his eyes narrowed, and his voice was not high, but it brought out a cold murderous intent; After a pause, he said: "And the Empress Dowager also has a will for me, and I can't help but punish you for making her old man angry." ”

Hearing that the emperor was going to punish her, Yuan Hua almost wanted to scream: Isn't that kind of insult enough? She will not be able to raise her head in front of Zixuan and other insiders for the rest of her life, as long as her title is not removed.

A smile flashed in Hongluan's eyes when she heard this, and she knew that the emperor would not let Yuan Hua go so easily; The position of a talented person has been added with the title of the word "Ning", and the beating of the Shangguan family is not too heavy. If it weren't for the wrong things that Yuan Hua did, the emperor dared to crown Yuan Hua as a talented person, presumably the Empress Dowager would have a big attack, and the Shangguan family would not swallow her anger.

"I have been grounded for a month, and I begged you to copy the Huayan Sutra, and you don't have to participate in the ceremony; Within half a year, there is no moon silver ......" are all bits and pieces of punishment, even if the Empress Dowager and the Shangguan family know, they can only say one sentence - the emperor's punishment is too light, and the emperor can't be found at all. Who let the wrong person be Yuanhua.

"And, if you are forgiven, you will not be forgiven." After the emperor said a lot of smashing punishments, even Shang Yi's brows moved when he spit out these words; There is really no forgiveness, and such a punishment is really unacceptable.

When Yuan Hua heard these punishments, he immediately kowtowed and thanked him, and let go of his heart: it was just a punishment on the emperor's mouth, and those were really not counted; What she cares about most is that she is a talented person, she does not have the right to assist in the affairs of the palace, and it is really difficult to gain a firm foothold in the palace.

The Empress Dowager doesn't like her, the emperor doesn't like her, and the soon-to-be-empress princess is her mortal enemy, and she is afraid that she will have to plan well in the future.

The emperor finally waved his hand: "Okay, Shang Yi took Ning Cairen to Ci'an Palace to ask for peace, and then invited her to live in the pure residence in the palace temporarily; At that time, your own queen will arrange your residence, and now everyone's residence has not yet been decided. "Directly get Yuan Hua to the small courtyard in the palace, which is really clean, and the three meals a day are vegetarian.

Yuanhua, no, it should be Ning Cairen; She didn't expect that the place where she was grounded was not in her own residence, and the emperor grounded her for a month because she had to be pure in heart and few desires, so that she could be worthy of her title of Ningzi, right? There are many mistakes, and the most hateful thing is that her future residence will be decided by the queen, hey, I'm afraid that she won't see the emperor in her lifetime. How else could she kowtow and thank you again.

Shang Yi saw that the emperor had sent Yuan Hua, and stepped forward to salute: "The Empress Dowager still has a will for Hongluan Zhengxin." Hearing this, even Yuanhua raised her head, she didn't know that the Empress Dowager still had a will for Hongluan; However, a trace of happiness flashed in her eyes, thinking that the Empress Dowager was also really angry, Hongluan, Hongluan, you are going to die today.

Hongluan hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to receive the order, and Shang Yi solemnly took out a yellow satin will to read it, which was also very surprising; You must know that Yuan Hua's disposition is only a verbal message, I really don't know if it will be something that can make the Empress Dowager so solemn.

Shang Yi read word by word: "The Empress Dowager Guan Ci'an Palace female official Zhengxin Hongluan, knowledgeable and courteous, pure filial piety and humility, canonized as the five grades of Zhaorong; From then on, we must abide by the orders of the empress, and take care of the grace of the mourning family and the emperor. ”

Yuan Hua looked up in disbelief after hearing this, she knew that Hongluan would become the emperor's pillow, but she had discussed with the Empress Dowager, if she couldn't stop it, she would let Hongluan be a little maid or a maid; But she didn't expect that the Empress Dowager would decree that Zhaorong who canonized Hongluan as the fifth grade was higher than her reputation, even if it was half a grade higher, she would have to salute when she saw Hongluan, and her pretty face was flushed in one breath.

Hongluan Xie En took the edict from Shang Yi's hand, and she herself couldn't believe it; Although the Empress Dowager doesn't dare to do anything to her now, she will never think of flattering her: a person who is used to being high and high, killing people without anger is already very bearable for the Empress Dowager.

Shang Yi saluted the emperor again: "The canonization ceremony will be held with all the concubines, and the place to live will also be decided by the emperor; The Empress Dowager also said that because of the state funeral, she ...... "She didn't say any more, but just saluted the emperor again."

The emperor raised his hand: "Well, go back and thank the Empress Dowager on my behalf, just say that I know, please don't worry about her." He glanced at Yuan Hua again: "Ning Cairen go and kowtow to the Empress Dowager, and then Shang Yi will send you to Qingjingju; Remember to bring a few palace people, you may not be used to the people over there. His soft admonition, earnest, as if he was extremely reluctant to Yuanhua.

Yuan Hua kowtowed to the emperor, got up and looked at Hongluan, biting his lower lip, not knowing whether he saluted or not; It is said that with the will of the Empress Dowager, the current Hongluan is already the Zhaorong of the five grades, and she wants to see the ceremony: just let her salute this former slave, she is really fierce and can't slow down this breath.

Hongluan looked at her quietly, looking directly into Yuan Hua's eyes and not avoiding or opening, of course she was waiting for Yuan Hua to salute: she and Yuan Hua are not finished yet, and they are already mortal enemies; When we meet again, it's either you die or I live, and she doesn't have to pretend to be a good person - the more Yuanhua doesn't want to salute her, the more she wants Yuanhua to bend over.

Because now she is respectful and Yuan Hua is humbled, she just looked at Yuan Hua and motioned to Yuan Hua that he was waiting.

Every time I send it, I want to support you a lot
