Chapter 254: Thrilling
Princess Ziyang raised her head slightly, stared at Qingli and Bingling, and took a deep breath before saying, "Concubine Pity, this princess can't afford it." It's not to open the way for you, but this princess really cares about the queen's phoenix health. Over the years, if it weren't for the queen's favor, there would not be a good life for the princess, but now the people around the queen are doing everything possible to stop it, so that the princess is so curious, and today I am afraid that I have to see the queen mother to feel at ease. ”
Bingling and Qingli glanced at each other and had a plan.
"In this case, please ask the princess to stay, and wait for the slave to ask the queen mother before coming back." Bingling hung his heart and saluted Princess Ziyang.
"Not necessarily." Ziyang was not willing to give her this time at all. "This princess will personally ask the queen for her guilt."
Although Cang Lian was dissatisfied with Princess Ziyang's pride, she could indeed make the people of Fengling Hall jealous, which meant that she was not allowed to come in vain.
"Since the princess said so, the concubine is not afraid of offending the queen, so she will follow the princess to say goodbye."
Although the guards blocked, they did not dare to approach Princess Ziyang. After all, the princess is precious and cannot be offended.
Bingling and Qingli's obstruction was broken by Cang Pian.
With a twist of her wrist, she opened the ice cube that blocked Princess Ziyang, and then opened her arms and blocked Qingli He in front of her: "The princess has a lot of kindness, she came from afar not to say, and she also specially prepared the right medicine, this palace really can't figure out the two of you, why do you want to prevent the princess from meeting the queen mother." Could it be that the queen is no longer in the palace at all? At this time, the Chu family was in turmoil outside, and there were rumors of Si Chen in the palace, who can guarantee that the queen mother is not in deep trouble, maybe you are also one of them. ”
"The slave and the maid are the maids of the master's family." Qingli gritted his teeth and glared at Cang Lian angrily: "I have been serving by my master's side since I was a child. Could it be that slaves and maids will help those foolish people and fight against their masters? Is the concubine's words blaming the slave or accusing the slave and maid's master of not being strict? ”
"People always change." Cang Lian rolled his backhand and restrained the green plow: "What are you still doing in a daze?" ”
Before she could finish speaking, a wave of older mothers-in-law came out of nowhere, hugging Qingli and Bingling tightly like monkeys.
If you start to do it, Bingling and Qingli will not suffer. But they were pressed to the ground by more than a dozen sturdy mothers-in-law, hugging their arms and legs and waists, so that they couldn't fight back.
"This princess is to send medicine to the queen's mother to serve the sick, so she has no choice but to break into the Fengling Palace. is also worried about rebellion outside, and some people take the opportunity to coerce the mother to cooperate with the outside, so they have to break into the Fengling Palace to ensure the safety of the queen. This princess will bear all the bad effects caused by breaking into the palace, but if you dare to continue to stop it, don't blame this princess for not having long eyes on the sword in her hand. Ziyang also came prepared, and suddenly pulled out the imperial sword from Su Duo's hand.
"This is the sword that the royal brother wore when he was young, and after giving it to this princess, it has always been used by this princess to protect herself. Since it is a royal gift, it can be cut first and then played, who dares to stop it, don't blame this princess for washing the Fengling Palace with blood. Ziyang raised the sword in his hand high, and sure enough, those guards didn't dare to offend again. Even Yu Linwei and Cen Muning's people will be afraid of Huangwei.
Bingling's desperate struggle was to no avail. "Your Royal Highness Princess, you can't be confused with Concubine Mercy."
"The queen mother has made a strict order, no one is allowed to disturb her recuperation, you want to break into the Fengling Palace, it is against the will of the mother, let me go!" Qingli struggled desperately, seeing Princess Ziyang striding into the courtyard, but she was powerless to stop it.
The two girls were firmly pressed to the ground by the mothers-in-law, unable to move. That feeling, I really hate it, I really want to tear these people to pieces.
All the way to the inner room of the Fengling Palace, it was very smooth, and no one stopped it.
Cang Lian followed behind Princess Ziyang, full of pride. The essence of the stupid man made a move, and this was solved. Even if the queen wants to blame, she is not responsible.
At the last door, Ziyang stopped outside the door.
"Poor concubine, you are in such a hurry to come in with this princess, do you have any bad ideas, don't think that this princess doesn't know."
Cang Lian hooked her lips slightly, and her tone was gentle: "The princess said this, but she wronged the concubine." The concubines, like you, hope that the queen is safe and sound. Who doesn't know that the queen is the emperor's treasure. If the emperor is not in the palace during this time, the queen mother has any mistakes, the emperor will inevitably resent the concubines for not serving wholeheartedly, and the concubines are humble and can't afford it, so they naturally have to rely on the princess. ”
"Hmph." Ziyang chuckled disdainfully: "The words don't sound good, this princess doesn't eat this." But don't forget, for today's events, you owe this princess a favor. ”
After saying this, hearing the Qingli and Bingling behind him entangled with those mothers-in-law, Ziyang didn't want to spoil the good thing, so he said, "Open the door." ”
Suduo hurriedly stepped forward and pushed the door. The door was tied from the inside and couldn't be pushed at all.
"Don't blame the queen, Ziyang is also afraid that these minions are not attentive enough, but it will affect you, so she has to deliver the medicine herself. But if there is the slightest disturbance and negligence, please also ask you to Haihan. Ziyang won't pay you first. ”
As she spoke, she gestured to the guards beside her.
The guard was also very powerful, and an arrow stepped forward and kicked open the door.
"Is that reasonable, are you crazy? How dare you offend the queen like this. Bingling gave a heavy hand, and the mothers-in-law who stopped her were disabled, not holding her arms and screaming, but rolling with her legs, only then broke free, broke into the inner room, and stopped in front of the screen. As long as the slave and maid are still breathing, no one wants to offend the queen. ”
Through the screen, you can't see the person on the bed.
But she was sure that it was not the Queen. Otherwise, he would have been reprimanded a long time ago. will also be tossed by Princess Ziyang. "The door has already come in, so don't block it like that. The queen mother didn't bother and bothered, and the princess took a heart, or personally sent the symptomatic medicine to the queen mother. ”
After saying this, she deliberately raised her voice: "Queen Mother, if you are unhappy, just scold the concubine." The concubine is worried about your well-being, so she has no choice but to do so. As long as you can take care of it, you can punish the concubines as much as you want. ”
"Don't be in a hurry to ask for punishment, but let this princess ask the queen mother for peace and serve the mother." Ziyang took a step forward and looked at the eyes of Shang Cang's mercy: "You did everything to obstruct it, and the queen didn't say a word right, why bother." ”
"No, the princess has to go one step further." When Bingling stopped Princess Ziyang, Qingli also broke free from those mothers-in-law and blocked the poor concubine.
"The queen is sick, what are the princesses and concubines going to do?" Qing Li roared angrily: "There are no rules." ”
Taking advantage of this chaos, Suduo walked to the front of the screen casually, and one was not paying attention, pop, and the screen was knocked to the ground by her. Everyone was stunned.
The lattices were not tightly closed, and the curtains on the beds were blown at will.
The figure of a woman, with her hair scattered, sat motionless in the tent, as if looking at this side.
It's just that the curtain is a little thicker, and I still can't see the woman's face clearly.
Bingling and Qingli's hearts are about to jump out. The little maid who pretended to be the queen's mother had never seen much of the world, and she might be scared silly at this time. As long as she shivered in bed and missed her timidity, she couldn't hide it at all.
The eyes of the two people were red, but they saw Princess Ziyang walking forward quickly. "Suduo, why are you so reckless. Look, the queen woke up. Don't hurry up and apologize to the mother. ”
"Slaves deserve to die." Su Duo hurriedly knelt down, knelt down towards the bed, and said straight in his mouth: "It's all slaves and maids who are not good, and I shocked the queen mother, and asked the queen mother to forgive her sins." Please forgive the queen for her sins......"
The moment she reached the bed, she reached out and grabbed the corner of the curtain and lifted it up with all her might.
Everyone held their breath as she lifted the curtain to reveal the woman inside.
"How can this be reasonable...... Bingling was stunned as soon as he wanted to pounce on it.
On the bed, Cen Muning's face was a little bad, and her eyes were full of tiredness and irritability, staring directly at the woman in this party. "What are you going to do?"
Qingli immediately became happy. It's the queen's mother, yes. The Queen Mother is back!
She hurriedly pushed the concubine away, walked quickly to the side of the bed and kicked the consumptions. "Are there any rules? Who will allow you to touch this curtain? ”
Su Duo was kicked, his face turned blue in pain, but he could only hold back and apologize: "It's all the slave's fault, it's the slave's fault......"
Ziyang glanced at Cang Lian unhappily, and then quickly stepped forward and saluted her: "The queen mother forgives her sins, it's all Ziyang's bad." Ziyang has been absent from the palace for a long time, and even the people around him have neglected the rules. In fact, Su Duo didn't mean to offend, but he was afraid that there was something wrong with Niangniang. No, Ziyang specially brought the right medicine to the imperial sister-in-law, Suduo, quickly, bring the medicine. The mother took the medicine, and the typhoid fever was able to get better soon. ”
Cang Lian's heart was pounding very quickly, and Cen Muning was actually in the palace, which shocked her. If she really has been in the palace all along, why didn't she meet the concubines, and why did she not improve after being cured for so long for a minor illness? Is it deliberately leading her to make mistakes?
Is the queen's scheming so deep?
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong, and Cang Lian silently took two steps forward.
"In this palace, I really can't hide anything at all." Cen Muning looked at the medicine handed by Ziyang, and her tone was stiff: "Even if the palace suffers from a minor illness like typhoid fever, the news can be spread outside the palace." I also want to work with the princess to personally deliver the medicine and break into the Fengling Palace, you really have a heart for the palace. ”
Ziyang couldn't help but be embarrassed, so he could only smile and say: "What the imperial brother cares about the most is the imperial sister-in-law, as a younger sister, I always think that the imperial brother is no longer in the palace, so I can do something to share his worries." Besides, the imperial sister-in-law has always treated the posture very well. How can Ziyang not come and do his best! ”
"Is it dedication, or do you have other plans, do you really think that the queen mother can't see it?" Qingli replied angrily: "Since the princess is in the palace to serve the sick and visit the queen's mother, why did she prepare more than ten strong mothers-in-law to hold down the slave maid and Bingling and not move, could it be said that the princess even knew in advance that the queen was not allowed to visit, but thought of countermeasures early?" ”
"Green plow." Cen Muning called softly: "The princess naturally has the princess's plan to do things, so don't say much." ”
This is already saving face for Ziyang. Cen Muning coughed lightly a few times, and her voice was slightly hoarse: "Bengong's body has always been weak, and although typhoid fever is not a serious disease, it can also be contagious." One is that the palace has only experienced a pox turmoil, and the other is that the emperor is not in the palace, so everything should not be publicized. The three responsibilities, the affairs of the Chu family, make the palace tired and tired to deal with. I thought about hiding in this palace and quietly raising it, just waiting for the emperor to return triumphantly, whether it was rumors or slander, it would eventually be broken, so I just ordered it. But the princess seems to not believe in the palace, and she has to see the palace with her own eyes to stop. Among them...... Isn't there another reason? ”
The afterglow at the end of his eyes glanced at Cang Pian. Cen Muning can be sure that today's events must be pitiful.
Ziyang also followed the queen's gaze, turned around and glanced at Concubine Pian, and her tone was a little simple: "Speaking of which, this matter is also a wake-up call from Concubine Pian." The concubine sent Xin'er to the nunnery, and told the princess that the princess and sister-in-law had been unwell for a long time, but there was no improvement or any improvement, so the princess would go around to seek medical advice and medicine, toss a lot, and hurriedly sent the medicine into the palace. ”
"Yes." Cang Lian smiled slightly, and the essence of her eyes flashed: "The concubine is also worried about the health of the queen's mother, so she has to alarm the princess." Since the queen mother has been ill, she has only trusted Doctor Hu, but Doctor Hu has been recuperating for you in the Fengling Palace for a long time, and she has never been able to make Niangniang recover. It's just that Doctor Hu is a person on the rivers and lakes after all, and he is different from the imperial doctor in the palace. If Doctor Hu was bribed by others, or had other plans, wouldn't it hurt the queen? Besides, the two close maids around you always prevent the concubines from visiting in every possible way, everyone knows that the situation outside the palace is tense now, and the emperor doesn't know what the situation is. If someone has a wrong mind and controls you, forcing the emperor to withdraw from the army, it will be a bad thing. The concubine is just a many-eyed, wanting to know the mother's safety, even if something really happens, the concubine hopes to turn the situation around and protect the safety of the emperor for the emperor. ”
Speaking of this, her nose was sour, and her eyes were red: "But the concubine has no idea." There is no other way than to bother Princess Ziyang. It's not that the concubine doesn't want to visit the queen by herself, but the mother has a deep grudge with the concubine. Even if the concubine wants to dissolve the misunderstanding, the mother will definitely not believe it. There was no way, so the concubine went to invite the princess to come. Everything is the fault of the concubine, I hope that the mother will not blame the princess, and if you want to punish the concubine, you will send the concubine. ”
She knelt down, looking soft, so that people couldn't help but soften their hearts when they looked at it.
"Just now the posture of the concubine Niangniang accompanying Princess Ziyang into the palace, but no one can see that it is for the sake of Niangniang's safety. It's like you're going to force the palace. Qingli said this angrily, and glanced at her fiercely.
"Yes." Cen Muning didn't feel that Qingli's words were inappropriate this time, but praised it greatly: "The poor concubine doesn't have to make such a pitiful appearance." The emperor is not in the palace, and the palace is not a man, so he won't eat you. ”
"Queen Mother, concubine ......" Cang Lian was so angry that she couldn't do it, but she still pretended to be pitiful, and before she finished speaking, she cried loudly.
"You make the decision on your own, let the princess ask for medicine everywhere, rush all the way back to the palace from the nunnery, and force your way into the Fengling Hall of the palace, this matter, I am afraid that before it gets dark, the entire imperial city will be known. What you know is that you did it on purpose, and those who don't know think that the mother of the country is not good, and you are about to die. You know that there is a battle going on outside, and everything in the palace must be based on stability, but you made such a big move to shake the hearts of the army. If the emperor doesn't know the truth or falsehood, so he returns to the palace and misses the fighter, can you afford to be offended? Cen Muning's series of reproaches made Cang Pian unable to refute.
Of course, these words were also said to Ziyang.
"The concubine knows that she is wrong, and the queen forgives her sins." Pity is as soft as a rabbit, and it is very desolate to cry on the ground. "The concubine was just worried about Niangniang's body, but she didn't expect to break into a big disaster. It's all the fault of the concubines, the queen, please dispose of the concubines, but please don't hurt the princess, otherwise the emperor will come back and will not forgive the concubines, the queen, please be gracious. ”
Ziyang couldn't help but smile and beg: "Don't be angry, the imperial sister-in-law didn't think about it clearly, so she rushed back to the palace because of a letter from the concubine." There is no big problem with the body of the imperial sister-in-law, just announce the visit of the concubines of the harem tomorrow and make this matter clear. As for the rest...... The imperial sister-in-law is safe and sound, so there is no need to alarm the imperial brother, right? ”
"If you ask the palace, the palace is naturally unwilling to alarm the emperor." Cen Mu Ning sighed regretfully: "But there are many things that this palace can not say. Once there is an uproar in front of you because of the affairs of the harem, even if you admit to being reckless, it will not help. The matter of breaking into the Fengling Palace, this palace will not care about you. For the rest of the things, this palace is not able to listen to you explain. Qingli, go and arrange the carriage and horses, and send Princess Ziyang and Concubine Lian to the royal car, and they will explain to the emperor in person. No matter how the emperor wants to punish him, the palace will let it go, and there will be no objections. ”
"Yes." Qingli shouted: "Ming and Qing Dynasties, don't prepare carriages and horses yet." ”
"The queen can't help it." Ziyang couldn't help but be a little nervous: "There is a battle ahead." The royal brother is a royal expedition this time. Where is there time to take care of these little things. Besides, the sword has no eyes, if there is any mistake in this halfway, then the imperial sister, my life will not be guaranteed. Sister-in-law, for the sake of my good intentions, don't make such a decision, okay? ”
"You are miserable, and this palace is no better." Cen Mooning sighed: "The emperor loves the concubine, and he has also maintained the concubine many times. It is expected that if you go with her, the emperor will not bear to criticize you. As for the battlefield, the main palace has always been out of the gate, and I really don't know. However, Yu Linwei and the palace guards are both extraordinary, and with their protection, they will definitely be fine. ”
"Why should the queen embarrass the princess like this, if you want to punish her, just let the concubine go to the emperor to ask for the guilt." Cang Lian deliberately said this, as if she understood the righteousness very well.
It's a pity that Ziyang didn't appreciate it at all, and sneered: "You don't talk and do things by yourself, but you almost made a mistake in this princess." At this time, if you dare to shout like this, it must be because the imperial brother has treated you too much, so you don't understand the rules. Su Duo, where are the grandmothers who used to teach the rules of the concubines in the palace? ”
"Back to the princess, the grandmothers are still teaching concubines in the palace, and it is no different." Suduo replied with her head down.
"Go and invite her, teach the concubine the rules well, and save her from acting recklessly in the future, causing a bigger misunderstanding." Ziyang smiled at the queen at this time: "The imperial sister-in-law doesn't blame the imperial sister for being in charge, so she treats the poor concubine like this." In fact, this is originally the royal brother's housework, and it is natural for the imperial sister to share the worries of the imperial brother. What's more, Concubine Pian has such a humble background, and she has never seen the world, and she blames Ziyang herself, and if she cares about it, she will be instigated by her. Sister-in-law, you just see that Ziyang has made such a big mistake for the first time, forgive Ziyang. Since...... Pei Yuan is gone, and my heart is not settled...... Finally, I was accompanied by Sister Ke Chun, who knew that I still couldn't let go of the things in the palace, which added chaos to the imperial sister-in-law......"
"That's it, don't cry." Cen Muning knew that she deliberately mentioned Chu Peiyuan to make her soft-hearted, but she had to pretend to be soft-hearted. "Cousin left early, you are still so young...... The nunnery is indeed not suitable for you to live for a long time, even Princess Kechun, the palace also hopes that she can come back to her mansion, and you will persuade the palace when you turn back, if not, it will be near your mansion, and also arrange a place for her to live, a good princess is not appropriate, what to do in such a hard life. ”
"It's still the imperial sister-in-law who feels sorry for us." Ziyang wiped her tears and snuggled up to her. "But the imperial sister-in-law herself has to take care of herself."
"Hmm." Cen Mooning rubbed her brain, and her tone was a little tired: "After saying so many words, this palace is really tired." ”
"That's it, the royal sister said goodbye first, and went back to persuade the sister to come and talk to the imperial sister-in-law again." Ziyang got up and saluted her: "The imperial sister-in-law must take good care of her body and recover soon." ”
As she spoke, she led Suduo out of the inner room quickly. The movement was fast, like a gust of wind passing by.
Before Cang Lian could see Princess Ziyang's eyebrows clearly, the person had already heard from the inner room. She clenched her fists and said nothing.
"When everyone is gone, you don't have to behave." Cen Muning said to her contemptuously: "You live your own life well, you don't have to make waves in the harem." You must know that all you can rely on is the emperor's past relationship with you. But no matter how strong the affection is, it can't withstand being exhausted little by little. One day, the emperor is tired of seeing your face, what else can you rely on? ”
"Thank you for worrying about the concubine." Cang Lian replied to her with a disapproving smug look: "The emperor treats his concubines well, how can the queen mother understand." But the concubine doesn't blame you, you are in it, so you naturally can't understand it. ”
"I hope you understand." Cen Mooning raised her head slightly: "According to what the princess said, please give Mama a good reminder of the rules of mercy." Take it with you. ”
"I'll go myself." Cang Lian shook off Qingli's hand and stood up with gritted teeth: "The queen mother should get better quickly." Your body is not good, how can you watch your concubines grow old with the emperor. If you don't look at it, the concubine will also feel boring. ”
"Don't worry, this palace will definitely not go ahead of you." Cen Mu Ning met her sharp gaze and said with a pleasant face: "If a heart-hearted person like you can live to a white head, it is really a sky without eyes." But you can rest assured that Hongu won't let you go too easily. If it's too easy, it's not fun. ”
