Chapter 589: You're GoodChapter 590: Yuanhua's Promise
The emperor knew that this was a good idea when Concubine Rou spoke, and what he was worried about was that the Empress Dowager's people would attack Hongluan; I want to ask Concubine Rou to check it, but how much can he trust Concubine Rou? The matter of Hongluan's life made him hesitate a little, so he was silent when King Fu and the others spoke, just to find someone who could fully believe it.
But no. When he was trying to use the words to ensure that Concubine Rou would not change her mind, the opening of the Empress Dowager disrupted his thoughts, so that he had no chance to say that the Empress Dowager had already decreed to inspect Hongluan's palace guard; He looked at Concubine Rou anxiously, and a thought flashed in his heart: Do you want to go and see it yourself? This is certainly not a good idea, although it can guarantee the safety of Hongluan 100%.
At this time, Hongluan made an astonishing move, she tore off her sleeve to reveal a small piece of snow-white arm, and the blood-red cinnabar on it stinged the emperor's eyes in an instant, making him turn his head while not forgetting to drink King Kang: "Look, the Empress Dowager can see clearly." ”
King Fu also closed his eyes and turned around after a glance, and there was also a pain in his heart: he couldn't protect Hongluan from the slightest injury, and it was his fault to let such a weak woman tear off her sleeves in public to prove herself.
The anger in the emperor's heart has been ignited, he stared at the Empress Dowager without blinking, and now he will not retreat a little, because Hongluan has been forced to prove himself and protect him as the emperor if he wants to damage his innocence, how can he let people persecute Hongluan a little more? He said in a deep voice: "Appreciate the red luan. ”
Hongluan pressed the fallen sleeve with her hand, and did not expose her whole arm in front of people, but it had already made her look at the Empress Dowager with tears in her eyes but stubbornly without saying a word; She just wants the words of the Queen Mother.
"What's going on?" Yuan Hua came in and was extremely surprised: "The innocent girl's family - alas, I can't say it well." She casually draped her big coat over Hongluan's body and covered Hongluan's exposed arms.
The emperor didn't look back, just looked at the Empress Dowager: "Luan'er, there is no mistake." Please let the Empress Dowager know about it. He stared at the Empress Dowager closely, waiting for her to say that Hongluan was innocent and did not need to be punished.
The Empress Dowager was already shocked in her heart, she didn't expect that the emperor would gather a lot of people around her in less than three months: Concubine Rou was definitely on the emperor's side, and although the three concubines did not speak, they were obviously biased towards the emperor.
And King Fu and Concubine Li are not of use to her, although she believes that their mother and son will not get together with the emperor, but tonight they will join forces with the emperor, which has surprised her so much that she is speechless; After Yuan Hua came in, she slowly exhaled a breath, looked at Hongluan and narrowed her eyes: "How did the injury on her head come about?" "Of course she won't bow to the emperor.
The emperor did not budge this time: "Please ask the Empress Dowager to decide, is Luan'er guilty or not wrong?" ”
The corners of the Empress Dowager's eyes twitched fiercely, and she stared at the emperor for a long time before she said: "The mourning family is gullible and trustworthy, and Hongluan is doing a good job; Come on, reward" She forced the words out of her teeth.
How many years have passed, she really can't remember much, because for too many years, no one has forced her like this, and no one dares to force her like this; But now the young emperor still has a faint childishness on his face, but he has forced her to have no way out.
The Empress Dowager finally admitted that what stood in front of her was no longer the crown prince, no longer a child, but the co-lord of the world and the supreme emperor of the Celestial Empire.
However, she would never stop there, especially if she couldn't let King Fu and the emperor join forces, it would be a disaster for the Shangguan family; After she finished speaking, she took a breath and asked, "Zhengxin's head injury, what's the matter?" I heard that it was caused by a dispute with King Fu? She still didn't give up and wanted to clean up Hongluan.
King Fu's face did not change: "It was caused by the grandson's accidental mistake, please forgive the empress dowager." He said it without any sincerity, as if Hongluan's injury was just a scratch of the skin, or Hongluan was simply a kitten and a puppy - the life of the palace maid was not worth half a penny in the eyes of the nobles of Tianhuang.
The reason why he pleaded guilty had to be said to be because Hongluan had the name of a Ci'an Palace Zhengxin, and he was a person who served the grandmother of King Fu, and it was indeed wrong for him to hurt Hongluan: it can be regarded as unfilial piety.
However, in the eyes of the Empress Dowager at this time, of course, it was not a big deal, and King Fu was so careless that the Empress Dowager believed a little: the dragon sons and phoenix grandchildren have always been like this, how could she not know? If King Fu solemnly pleaded guilty, it was possible that there would be something else.
At that time, when King Fu stopped Hongluan, there were not too many people present, and of course those who followed King Fu were his trusted confidants, so the Empress Dowager did not know what happened between Hongluan and King Fu.
The Empress Dowager believed it or not, but at this time there was no excuse for the attack; And Hongluan's behavior of tearing off her sleeves undoubtedly slapped the empress dowager in front of everyone, making her lose face: this is different from the emperor's coercion, because the emperor's identity is there; But Hongluan is just a female official, and in the eyes of the Empress Dowager, she is a palace slave.
Therefore, the Empress Dowager was even more annoyed, and she didn't do it if she wanted to kill Hongluan with a cane, and in the end she had to admit that she was mistrusting people's words: such an excuse could not save her face.
Looking at Hongluan at this time, her eyes were a little red under the reflection of the light, I don't know if it was because of the light: she had been hunting geese for decades, but she had been injured twice in the hands of her own eagle - she was even more annoyed when she thought about it.
Hongluan looked at Yuan Hua and thanked him lightly, and generously took Yuan Hua's clothes and put them on, without the slightest hint of shrinking or fear; fell into Yuan Hua's eyes, causing her eyes to shrink suddenly, and she bent down to tie Hongluan's coat, but whispered in Hongluan's ear: "Hello, you are good; But I looked away, no wonder you. ”
After speaking, the clothes belt was also tied, Yuan Hua straightened up and came forward and patted Hongluan's shoulder gently: "Have you taken the medicine?" I've got some good medicine for the wounds, and I'll have someone fetch it for you later. After she took care of Hongluan in a soft voice, she stepped forward to greet the Empress Dowager, the Emperor and others.
After the Empress Dowager finished her salute in Yuanhua, the annoyance on her face was no longer visible, and she took the tea handed over by Shang Yi to eat; This means that for the time being, she will not be able to speak.
Yuan Hua glanced up at the Empress Dowager, and then her eyes turned on the brothers of King Kang and King Fu, and she stood behind the Empress Dowager under the beckoning of the Empress Dowager.
Chapter 590: Yuanhua's Promise
The emperor took a deep look at Yuan Hua and nodded lightly: "You were originally in Ci'an Palace, but I really didn't expect it." This bland sentence made Yuan Hua, who stood beside the Empress Dowager, tremble, and did not dare to look directly into the emperor's eyes.
Yuan Hua understood the emperor's words, just glanced at Hongluan, she couldn't hold back the anger in her heart, this palace slave actually played with her and the empress dowager in the palm of her hand, how could she just let her go? Moreover, the emperor values her so much that it will only be more trouble to get rid of her at this time; After making up her mind, she lowered her head slightly and stopped looking at the emperor.
If you want to coax back the emperor's heart and try it slowly, as long as there is no woman around the emperor who can attract the emperor's attention, she will have time to grind slowly with the emperor; Besides, with the Shangguan family, it is impossible for the emperor to snub her too much.
The emperor retracted his gaze and ignored Yuan Hua, and saw that Hongluan just wanted to speak again: the matter has come to this, there is really no need to hide it, it is better to put it in front of people generously - he wants to see who else dares to move Hongluan blatantly; Of course, he has to sit firmly on the dragon chair and do a good job as an emperor in order to keep him and Hongluan.
Yuan Hua grabbed ahead of him and spoke, but not to the emperor but to King Kang: "I heard that you asked the emperor for a concubine, that is, we are believing in Hongluan, right?" When the emperor or queen makes an order after the ceremony, I will definitely back up the gifts. ”
Her words immediately quieted down the palace again, and even the tea in the Empress Dowager's hand was put down.
The Empress Dowager looked at King Kang: "Is there such a thing?" "She was really angry just now, the emperor and King Fu joined forces because of Hongluan, of course they can use Hongluan to turn their backs again, are you still afraid that the emperor will not listen to her when the time comes?
King Kang looked at the emperor and then at King Fu, and finally glared at Hongluan viciously and said sullenly: "It's a concubine, but it's not this true faith; The emperor said, after the ceremony, let me choose the righteous letter in the palace at will. He didn't forget to promise the emperor and King Fu, and looking at the eyes of his concubine, he also knew that he couldn't go against King Fu at this time.
The Empress Dowager frowned: "Nonsense"
Yuan Hua looked at King Fu: "Hey, then I really heard it wrong, isn't that 'Red Luan Star Movement' a dowry that King Fu prepared for King Kang?" "No mistakes, no skipping words. She was really afraid that the world would not be chaotic, so she actually said the bracelet given by King Fu at this time.
Concubine Li's face changed, and of course she was a little annoyed when she saw King Fu, but what made her even more angry was Yuan Hua: her son is her own, and everything is not everything, of course, she can only say it, how can she let others point fingers? Especially in front of the Empress Dowager.
"That's 'Hongluan Xingdong' I gave to Hongluan, a few days ago I let people play some jewelry, mainly to choose a few pieces for the Queen Mother that can be seen, to use on the day of the ceremony; Unfortunately, there are a few pieces of jewelry in it that are Luan's appearance, because Luan is not a phoenix so it can't be used, and it is red and casually said 'Hongluan Xingdong';" Concubine Li smiled without any scheming: "Later, I remembered that Hongluan's child has always been appreciated by the Queen Mother, and because there is a Luan character in his name, he wanted to give her something." ”
"When King Fu saw it and said that he would reward it, he didn't think much about it at the time;" Concubine Li looked at Yuan Hua with a smile: "Maybe Liangdi heard it wrong; There are some things that cannot be said nonsense. There was a place for Yuanhua in her words, but she didn't forget to warn Yuanhua a few words.
She is the person who has been the master of the house in the palace for more than ten years, of course, she will not be silent because of Yuan Hua's calculations; Being able to hold Yuanhua is a phoenix and Hongluan is just a luan, but it is just for the sake of the face of the Queen Mother, not that she is afraid of Yuanhua.
King Fu said lightly: "That's it; He looked at the emperor and the corners of his mouth pulled up: "The emperor is also here, and the younger brother didn't say that it was a dowry for the third brother, right?" There are many words, which are what the ministers want to give to Hongluan. He actually had the heart to provoke the emperor at this time, and he really laughed like he was being beaten.
The emperor squinted his eyes and looked at him: "Well, it's true that it's not what the second brother gave to Luan'er for the third brother, it's just that the second brother knew that I wanted to accept Luan'er by my side a long time ago, and gave Luan'er a congratulatory gift." "Do you want to fight, who is afraid of whom.
The smile on King Fu's face immediately froze, and he laughed dryly: "That is not enough to be a congratulatory gift, how can the younger brother be so stingy?" It's just for Hongluan Zhengxin to enjoy. He was killed by the emperor's words, for the sake of Hongluan's life, he really couldn't turn his face with the emperor on the spot and deny it, only he knew the suffering.
Hongluan looked at Yuanhua and kowtowed: "I was about to ask Liangdi to make the decision for me, a few days ago, Liangdi said that he wanted Hongluan to be a talented person after the ceremony; It's really not Hongluan begging for Liangdi, it's Liangdi's kindness, but it was used by some people to slander Hongluan, and it was also used to coax the Empress Dowager - Liangdi, you explained to the emperor and the Empress Dowager that it really doesn't matter about Hongluan, and Hongluan has never had such delusions. ”
Yuan Hua's face turned so blue that the words on her lips were blocked by Hongluan, of course she could deny it at this time, but under the emperor's gaze, she knew that what was waiting for her was: to get rid of Hongluan, but it couldn't be so obvious, so that the emperor could catch her handle and make the emperor disgusted with her.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have had to make that fake concern about Hongluan when she entered the hall.
Hongluan looked at Yuan Hua after speaking, his eyes were very calm; Because of Yuanhua's fake concern, as well as Yuanhua's gentle and compassionate heart in front of people, she knew that her words Yuanhua had to swallow if she could swallow it, and she could only swallow it if she couldn't swallow it.
It's not that she wants to offend people, but people have already offended, and people want to get rid of her early, so why can't she let go? In that case, let's let the horse come over and fight, it's really hard to say who will kill the deer.
Seeing Hongluan's gaze, Yuanhua twitched the corners of his mouth: I really want to smack Hongluan's face, and dare to shamelessly say that you are not delusional? You don't have a delusional idea that the emperor will quarrel with the empress dowager over you right now? You don't have a delusional idea that you would say something like that at this time?
The Emperor has spoken: "Is there such a thing? Liangdi has a heart. ”
Concubine Rou smiled and stroked her palms: "The Empress Dowager originally rewarded people to the emperor, and it is also a good thing to reward a position after the ceremony; In the palace, alas, there should indeed be a favorite thing to rush, and the clouds and mist hurt the queen mother's phoenix body every day. ”
Concubine Li has already figured out that things have come to such a point that letting Hongluan follow the emperor to attract the attention of the Empress Dowager and Yuanhua, and making the Empress Dowager dissatisfied with the emperor is much better than getting her to her own son.
