Chapter 255: Trouble
Seeing that Concubine Wan still had no intention of stopping, the queen suddenly stood up, and a slap fell on Concubine Wan's face, leaving no room for anything, ordering those eunuchs to stop the movements in their hands, and reprimanded loudly: "You still have me as the queen in your eyes, and the crime you have committed is not small." ”
"The concubine punished Tian Yao according to the crime, why did she commit any of the following crimes? Didn't the queen want to protect Tian Yao? "Concubine Wan has sharp teeth and sharp mouth, although she is reasonable, but she still can't escape the responsibility of the following offenses, "The queen mother slapped the concubine, if she hurt the concubine's face and provoked the emperor's anger, I don't know what will become of the queen mother?" As he spoke, he stretched out his white hand and walked towards the queen.
The scorching sun is in the sky, and the venue for the Hundred Flowers Banquet is by the pond, and the sparkling water adds a bit of coolness.
Seeing a hand waving towards her, the queen did not show any panic, and held her arm with one hand, and her wide sleeves were rolled into a wavy shape, "It's really presumptuous, this palace treats you more pleasantly on weekdays, but now you kick your nose and face, does this palace want to find fault with you everywhere and make you feel uneasy?" Today, everyone has seen it, you must apologize to this palace today, otherwise what is the majesty of this palace as the lord of the six palaces? ”
As he spoke, he held her arm upwards so that she could stand up. The look in his eyes seemed to eat Concubine Wan.
The emperor was talking with a few courtiers elsewhere, and when he saw such a big movement here, he rushed over when he heard the sound, and all he saw was the queen's aggressiveness and the euphemistic and helpless scene of the concubine, so he immediately felt pity.
Everyone knelt down to see the emperor drove, and the emperor said politely and hurried towards Concubine Wan, the queen let go of her hand and frowned, it seems that she is really angry with Concubine Wan this time. But what made her most angry was not Concubine Wan's domineering, but her husband protecting a little Concubine Wan.
"Empress, what are you going to do in front of so many people?" After speaking, the emperor went to comfort Concubine Wan, and the tone seemed to be coaxing the child, "Concubine Wan, are you okay, I am too late to teach you to be wronged." ”
Seeing the emperor's condolences, Concubine Wan pretended to cry and said: "The concubine is just teaching an ignorant girl, but she didn't know that the queen was so angry, not only did she not let them be punished, but she also ...... the concubine" After speaking, she deliberately slapped the half of the queen's face, hoping to be seen by the emperor and blame the queen.
As Concubine Wan intended, the emperor saw the slightly reddened half of her face, "This ......", before the emperor could continue, Concubine Wan blurted out, "It's also the blame for the concubine herself, who doesn't know how to obey the queen's will to protect Na Tian Yao, so she was slapped in the face, and the emperor must not blame the queen." Concubine Wan's words not only put everything off with herself, but also euphemistically said that the slap was made by the queen, which is really wonderful.
"Hmph, I don't know who was tough just now, but now he's pretending to be weak." The queen sneered, she didn't change on the surface, but her heart was cold, so she turned her eyes away, not wanting others to see the sadness in her eyes.
"Queen, what else do you have to say? Go back to the palace by yourself and think about what you did today, why shouldn't you? "The emperor still didn't realize Concubine Wan's plan at this juncture, he only saw Concubine Wan's gentle appearance, but he couldn't see through how much she was thinking? How deep is the city?
After this sentence, the queen didn't plan to continue to stay in this place and accept the human face of the concubine, so she walked up to Tian Yao, looked at her with a smile, and wanted to take her back to Yikun Palace. Tian Yao didn't refuse, she knew that she would definitely not be able to leave, because Concubine Wan didn't take the queen in her eyes in the first place, but now that the emperor is in front of her, she will definitely take this opportunity to vent her anger.
Sure enough, Concubine Wan stepped forward to stop her, glanced at Tian Yao, and said to the queen: "Don't forget, the queen hasn't finished her twenty boards yet, and the queen wants to take her away?" What did the concubine just say? ”
"It's your fault in this matter today, you are still so reasonable, this palace doesn't want to talk to you, let's go." The queen ordered the maid to hold Tian Yao, and hurried back to the palace.
Concubine Wan naturally refused to see herself lose face like this, and was directly anxious, pulling Tian Yao's arm to drag her back, Tian Yao became the one who was caught between the two of them and suffered.
The place where the feast of flowers was set up was in the pond, and the queen happened to be next to the railing, which was very low, and it was very scary for the queen to look at it, as if she would fall into the pond if she was not careful.
In the middle of the dispute, Concubine Wan saw that the queen refused to let go, so she pushed Tian Yao to the side, the queen's center of gravity was unstable at this time, and she fell into the pond with a thud.
The originally orderly banquet became a mess, and everyone was very panicked pacing back and forth, not knowing what to do. The emperor ordered a few eunuchs and guards to go into the water to save the queen, but he could only wait on the top.
Concubine Wan pretended to be calm, but she was a little flustered in her heart, if this queen had any three strengths and two shortcomings, she would definitely not be able to escape, but she thought that Tian Yao was between the two of them, and when the time came, everything would be directly pushed on her. She wanted it to be good, but was it really what she thought it would be? What has not yet happened, no one dares to make a conclusion.
Yun Xiao, who was standing on the side and watching the excitement, just thought that Tian Yao would be punished very heavily, but now it seems that it was just her cranky thoughts, she didn't expect the queen to protect her, and now she can only pretend to be worried about the queen's safety.
The emperor saw that the queen fell into the water, and his heart was full of dissatisfaction with Concubine Wan Tian Yao and worry about the queen, Concubine Wan also didn't know the system, she didn't know the general situation, she trusted her so much, now that she thinks about it, everything that happened just now is really a little weird, isn't it that she misheard Concubine Wan's words, isn't it that she is talking nonsense by trusting her? The emperor thought that this was interrupted by the words of those people.
"Hurry up and bring the queen up, if the queen's safety is affected, your head will not be guaranteed, whoever can send the queen back to the shore safely, I will reward him with a hundred taels of gold, everyone can witness, never lose a word." The emperor also tried his best to motivate them to save the queen, and if the queen knew, she should be able to feel a little more relieved.
After a while, the queen was rescued, and the emperor did not break his promise, he let his attendant eunuch lead the person who bravely saved the queen down to receive the reward, and everyone else was red-eyed.
The queen's maid hugged the queen, and the queen was choking out the water she had just drunk from the water one by one, and the green silk was messily attached to her cheeks and forehead, looking a lot haggard.
At this time, she stood up strongly, staggered and finally stood firm, she remembered who pushed herself into the water just now, this is the concubine Wan who looks gentle on the surface but is as poisonous as a snake and scorpion, walked up to her step by step, and pinched her jaw with her hand: "Do you know that the crime of murdering the queen is not small, and she dares to do it in front of so many people, and she has never restrained you on weekdays, but now it has intensified, isn't it the fault of this palace?" Concubine Wan, tell me, how to punish it? ”
When the words fell, Concubine Wan had not yet spoken, and the emperor said in a good voice: "Queen, I believe that Concubine Wan must not have done it on purpose, but just missed it for a while, and there will never be a next time." ”
This sentence made Concubine Wan, who was originally trembling, better, but it made the heart of the originally cold queen seem to be covered with a layer of frost, "Heh, I ......missed for a while" A light and momentary miss made her almost lose her life, and he could still say a sentence of a momentary miss so easily.
The queen didn't want to say anything more, and it was pointless to continue, after all, what he cared about was Concubine Wan, not himself.
"Queen Mother, you better go back and change your clothes earlier, in this way, what if you catch a cold?" Tian Yao couldn't stand it anymore on the side, she dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, so she went to help the queen.
Tian Yao helped the queen back to Yikun Palace, and she didn't know how she could finish that day and how she could cross that hurdle.
Concubine Wan saw the queen's demeanor, felt that she was in a lot of trouble, since the queen left, she was nervous, if the queen was unlucky to die in this pond today, she would become a murderer, she must have nightmares and nightmares, and she was afraid to think about it.
"It's okay, it's okay, Concubine Wan, I'll send you back to the palace." The emperor looked at the queen's back and didn't do anything, but hugged Concubine Wan to go back to the palace. Concubine Wan clutched her chest, and it took a long time to wake up after hearing the emperor's words, and she agreed with a smile. The emperor and Concubine Wan returned to the palace.
Qi Meiren quietly watched everything that happened in a remote place, and couldn't help but be very curious about the relationship between the emperor and Concubine Wan, why couldn't the emperor see Concubine Wan's tricks? Why doesn't the emperor care about the queen's joy and anger? This is all the doubts in Qi Mei's heart, and I can't solve it for a long time.
At the same time, she also felt pity for the queen, the mother of a country was snubbed like this, who can know her suffering?
In the Yikun Palace, the queen changed her clothes, and she was completely like the two of her who was down-and-out just now, and she didn't forget to entertain Tian Yao: "There are only you and me here, don't be too restrained." ”
Tian Yao still remembered the scene just now, and felt that the queen fell into the water because of herself, so she knelt down and said: "Queen Mother, it's all Tian Yao's fault, if Tian Yao is not caught by the concubine, you won't fall into the water, it's all Tian Yao's fault, if the anger in the queen's heart is still not calm, then punish Tian Yao, Tian Yao has no complaints." ”
