Chapter 499: Buddha String Chapter 500: The Cold of Counting Nine

A teacup flew less than an arm's length in front of the Queen Mother, and then a wide sleeve with the wind pulled in front of her face not far away, and a long sword flew from behind her head to shoot down: everything happened so fast that she didn't have time to change her face and exclaim, and the teacup fell to her feet.

It was not only the tea cup that frightened her, it should be said that she was frightened by the tea cup first, and then she was frightened by the emperor's big sleeves, and then the most amazing thing was that a cool breeze blew from the back of her neck, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw a bright and dangling long sword falling from the sky: it is not the word fright that can be described.

She didn't lose her temper, not because she was so bold that Mount Tai collapsed in front of her and changed color, but she didn't have time to change color; It wasn't until the crown princess knelt down that she shook the emperor's hand heavily: "The guards around you should be rewarded heavily, especially the one who used the long sword just now, if he didn't mourn the family, he would really be injured." ”

The queen mother is the queen mother, right and wrong are clearly distinguished, rewards and punishments are also clearly decided; Although the long sword startled her, it saved her; As for the emperor's sleeve, of course, it is also to save her, although the sleeve may not have much effect, but the emperor can have this heart and this reaction has made her very satisfied.

She didn't ask the princess to get up, and she didn't pay attention to the princess but wanted to reward Commander Meng, which meant that everyone in the palace understood; Even if he didn't reprimand the crown princess for a word, he had already reprimanded her fiercely and swept away her dignity.

Of course, the emperor would not stop the queen mother from rewarding his cronies, and called Meng Tong to come in and kowtow to the queen mother, but he also did not look at the crown princess again; This made the crown princess kneel on the ground, and it was not great to get up, but it hurt her face very much, and naturally she was even more dissatisfied with the queen mother: she didn't mean it.

Commander Meng came in and knelt down, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, he knelt not far from Hongluan's side; His gaze quietly turned around Hongluan's body, making sure that she was not injured before he really put his mind at ease.

"I've been on an errand in the East Palace, and I'm the one who was given to the emperor by the first emperor;" The Queen Mother asked in two sentences and looked at the emperor: "I see that he is wearing an official uniform that is clearly a deputy commander, right?" There are many words that the mourning family has never paid much attention to, so it can't be that the mourning family is mistaken. ”

The emperor hurriedly said: "You are not mistaken, he is still the deputy commander, but the commander is sick, so he is the temporary commander." ”

"Oh." The Queen Mother took the tea from the trembling Bing'er, looked at her twice, and said softly: "Since the commander is sick, the defense of the palace is the top priority, and you can't be sloppy; The mourning family saw that he was good, so it was just right for him to be the commander. When the original commander recovers from his illness, and he has worked hard for so many years, the emperor will reward him with a good errand - the mourning family thinks that he will not be tired and sick, right? No mistakes, not a lot of words"

The emperor immediately agreed, and Commander Meng stepped forward to thank him, and today's unexpected joy is the position of commander; Originally, this matter had to be decided after the accession to the throne, and maybe there would be no objections from King Fu and others; The emperor understood that the queen mother was repaying the favor, which was equivalent to completely handing over the defense of the palace to him, saving him a lot of hands and feet and trouble.

The Queen Mother put down the teacup in her hand and looked at Commander Meng who was thankful: "It's really a heartfelt, the mourning family hasn't rewarded you yet, so you thank the mourning family." Alas, the mourning family did not carry it with me, this string of Buddhist beads has been with the mourning family for more than ten years, and I will reward it to you today. The Buddha bead string is something that her husband took with him after his death: "The safety of the palace is a matter of Sheji, and the mourning family will give you this bead string, hoping that you will keep the emperor and the mourning family safe, and the Buddha can also bless you with safety." ”

This is said with great care.

Commander Meng solemnly kowtowed and took the bead string with both hands: "It is difficult for the ministers to report the death of the queen mother and the emperor Longen, and they will swear to protect the inner court." ”

The Queen Mother said so much, of course, just to ask him to say this, and after a few words of encouragement, she sent Commander Meng to retreat; When Commander Meng kowtowed, he glanced at Hongluan and reassured her, got up and respectfully exited the hall.

"It's a good one, loyal and courteous;" The Queen Mother praised Commander Meng for two more sentences, and then looked at the emperor: "Don't worry, the mourning family is fine." ”

Then she looked at the crown princess who was kneeling on the ground: "Get up, still kneeling?" The mourning family thinks that you have saluted here, so naturally you don't need to call the mourning family - why do you understand etiquette again at this time? "When he opened his mouth, he didn't mention the matter of the teacup, but asked the princess if she stepped forward.

According to etiquette, wherever the queen mother and the emperor go, the concubines and concubines have to descend to greet each other; Even if it is too late to descend, you have to step forward and salute, instead of kneeling in a standing place like the crown princess. If it weren't for the emperor coming over and kicking the crown princess's dress, the queen mother and the emperor would have no place to sit.

Because the place where the crown princess knelt was before the throne in the palace, the queen mother and the emperor came over, and she didn't know that she kneeled to the side.

Is the crown princess discerning? She thought about it and kowtowed to ask for guilt directly, but she couldn't say that she threw out the teacup and almost smashed the queen mother to be frightened, so she lost her honor for a while; The queen mother didn't mention the teacup, of course she didn't take the initiative to mention it: she hadn't thought of how to deal with it yet, wouldn't it be asking for trouble if she mentioned it at this time.

Bing'er glanced at the crown princess a few times, asking her to hurry forward and apologize for the matter of the tea cup, but the princess didn't seem to see it; It's not that the crown princess didn't understand Bing'er's hints, and she didn't want to do that at all. In her opinion, it was Bing'er's brain that broke down to come up with such a bad idea.

The Queen Mother saw that the crown princess kowtowed and didn't get up, so she just pleaded guilty, and frowned slightly: "The mourning family let you get up." Someone come, give the crown princess a seat. There was unhappiness in her words, but she gave the princess a seat, so that the princess couldn't guess what she was thinking.

Hongluan is now much more at ease, originally she was worried that the Queen Mother would not protect her, but now that there is that teacup, the Queen Mother will not let the crown princess get her wish.

"What's going on here——, The Queen Mother frowned and looked at the crown princess, very displeased: "The royal system"

The crown princess knelt on the ground again and pleaded guilty, but she didn't change her mind and didn't forget to defend herself: "It's all those palace maids who are hateful, and the concubine is so angry that she misses." ”

Did she really think that the Queen Mother and the Emperor were blind? Wu Gongren, Hongluan, and Bingyu are kneeling or lying on the ground, so that people can't see them? How can you say that these three people are either the emperor's people or the queen mother's people, and it depends on the master to beat the dog, the crown princess scolded Bingyu and Hongluan, and even sent a person to Ci'an Palace, will the queen mother be happy?

Even if the Queen Mother didn't care about it, but with the tea cup that almost hit her face, the Queen Mother couldn't care about it.

Chapter 500: The Cold of Counting Nine

Hongluan was a little nervous, even though she knew that the Queen Mother would not let go of the crown princess easily, but she asked about the palace without mentioning the teacup, which made her feel that danger was approaching; She lowered her head slightly, thinking that the intention of the Queen Mother to do this was that even if she couldn't avoid her, she had to think clearly.

Because when she was a beggar, she knew that she was not the smartest person in the world, and even the smartest person occasionally missed; But she can pay attention to it, so that she will never suffer twice in the same thing.

In the palace, she is even more so, she thinks very thoroughly about everything she passes: not only after the fact, but even when she is in it, she will pay close attention to it, find out the reason why everyone acts the way it is, she must learn from it well, and if she is wrong, she must always remind her not to make the same mistake.

The Queen Mother is undoubtedly the person Hongluan pays the most attention to.

The emperor sat beside the Queen Mother and did not speak, sitting there staring at the Crown Princess with a calm face, and it seemed that the Queen Mother was in charge of this matter tonight.

Hongluan's heart suddenly moved slightly: it seems that when the emperor and the queen mother were together, there was something that he rarely spoke - she almost cried and slapped herself a few times, so that she didn't notice it until now, and hoped that the emperor was really looking for death. But right now, she has no way but to wait honestly and wait for the Queen Mother to send them down.

If the Queen Mother really killed them, Hongluan would have no room to resist at all; At this time, Mama Gong's words rang in her ears again, but this time it was louder than any other time, which made her tremble slightly at this time.

In the palace, she wants revenge and survival, is the original idea really too naïve? She didn't know, she really didn't know the answer.

After meeting Master Meng, she didn't ask for help, originally because she couldn't trust him, but after being tempted, she knew that it was impossible, so she didn't want to pull him into the water: the consequences of being an enemy of the prince are not difficult to imagine; The civil prosecutor still has to roll the nail board, even if she succeeds, she is afraid that she will have to suffer in the end, in case of failure, how can she harm Lord Meng?

Because she understands Lord Meng's heart, she knows that she will help as long as she is willing to say it, and now she has not begged Lord Meng to meddle in a lot of her affairs: she doesn't want to use him - if she can't get married, she should break it off simply, how can she drag Master Meng into the water in order to avenge her family.

She doesn't believe in King Fu, she doesn't believe in the emperor ten out of ten, she doesn't know much about the battle for the throne, because of the limitations of her identity; But as far as she knew, it could already be called thrilling, which made her believe that for the sake of that dragon chair, there was nothing that these princes couldn't do.

It was not her wish to enter the palace, and she wanted to live freely as a beggar, so she wanted to be relied on by the emperor, so as to take revenge rather than get the emperor's favor: can the favor of the royal people be believed? The desolate Chenglu Hall is there, does the first emperor remember the owner of the Chenglu Palace?

Moreover, Hongluan's disapproval of Mama Gong's words was not all out of fear; If she really has the heart to fight for the emperor's heart, then before her enemies are found and her family feuds are not investigated, she will have to fight to the death with Yuan Hua and others.

Will she really live long enough to find her enemies? and let the emperor avenge her - as long as she says it, it is the emperor, and the whole world is in her heart, and the emperor may have a different opinion on the great family feud for her.

In the eyes of the royal people, it is the most important, and Hongluan is very clear; So when she pinned her hopes on the emperor today, she only thought that there was a glimmer of life: the emperor's heart was unpredictable.

But acting according to her own ideas, not to mention that when investigating the enemy, even self-protection is repeatedly controlled by others, and it is impossible to even move a finger; For the first time, Hongluan wavered in her persistence, but the life outside the palace walls still made her extremely nostalgic, and it was also where her happiness after revenge lies.

The crown princess's justification undoubtedly made the Queen Mother even more angry, and she glanced at Hongluan and the others: "Oh, the people from the Ci'an Palace of the Mourning Family are also there." This sentence made the crown princess's face change again.

Hongluan felt hope in her heart when she heard it, and the Queen Mother seemed to be angry.

"Hongluan, did you do something to make the crown princess so angry?" The Queen Mother suddenly scolded Hongluan with a dark face: "The mourning family saw that you were stable on weekdays so they let you serve by the emperor's side, but you haven't really served the errand, so you have made the princess so annoyed, can you be guilty?" ”

Her loud shouting really startled Hongluan, because she had never seen the Queen Mother have a seizure; was stunned for a moment, she just wanted to speak, but the crown princess over there had already opened her mouth and said loudly: "Queen Mother, is it the concubine who punished her for being a concubine without knowing the Queen Mother, but the concubine is also afraid that the Queen Mother will be angry and hurt the phoenix body when she finds out; Since the Queen Mother asked, then the concubine will go back and forth to the Queen Mother. ”

No one in the palace was unclear about the princess's intentions, which made the emperor frown slightly and glance at the princess; Because he wants to know how stupid a man can be; Doesn't she know what to do to protect herself? In this palace, don't say it's her, even he can't do it if he wants to do it now.

It was his misfortune to have such a wife, but he did not blame anyone, because the crown princess himself nodded and agreed; Now, all he needs to do is how to keep her stupidity from affecting his big things.

The Queen Mother looked at the crown princess: "There is no need to say it. She raised her head and pointed at Hongluan and said: "It's a big crime for you to make the princess so angry, it's a big disrespect, there is no such rule in the Ci'an Palace of the mourning family" She glanced at Liu Er next to Hongluan and asked the princess: "Are they——? ”

The crown princess owed: "They came with Hongluan......" At this point, the queen mother interrupted.

"It turned out to be the one who aided the abuse;" The Queen Mother opened her mouth and convicted Liu Er and the others, and then waved her left hand lightly: "How can the mourning family come out so embarrassed?" Someone came, dragged it down and beat the mourning family with twenty boards, and taught them how to serve their masters. ”

Hongluan's heart jumped when she heard this, and she couldn't help but look up at the Queen Mother secretly, and suddenly she figured it out and didn't argue, and kowtowed to the Queen Mother and the Emperor on the ground: "Slave and maid thank the Queen Mother for her reward, and the slave and maid must remember the Queen Mother's words." ”

Liu Er and the others were also equally grateful, and they got up smoothly and followed the people out to receive the punishment.

The main hall was like the weather of the ninth in an instant, so cold that the emperor picked up hot tea to warm his hands, and no one dared to speak. Naturally, there are only two people who are happy, the crown princess and the Wu Palace.

After the Queen Mother ate two sips of tea, there were screams from Hongluan and others outside the hall, and she slowly put down the teacup and looked at the crown princess: "Didn't you want to tell the mourning family that Hongluan and they did something wrong?" Now let's talk about it. ”
