The two had a bet before this, things changed too quickly, she was cured of her leg disease within a month, and Mingmei also created a fallacy when she had a leg disease, so that Emperor Yan was forced to choose Concubine Na in the midst of the people's discussions. She didn't know why Emperor Yan Feng wanted to accept Ming Mei as a side concubine, she couldn't guess his thoughts, but as long as she accepted the side concubine, she could block the mouths of Youyou.

The gentleman said that it was difficult to chase the horse, he chose to take a concubine when she had a leg disease, although now that her leg disease is better, he did not take back his life, presumably because of his commitment to Mingmei.

Maybe this is just her speculation, but, as Mingmei said, after she entered the palace, the two were even more compatible.

"Assan, do you think that after I enter the mansion, you will still be able to sit firmly in the position of princess? Sooner or later, your seat will be mine. After a pause, he continued: "You still remember the bet between you and me before, in fact, it is obvious that I won this bet." ”

What it means, she understands.

But...... Her win was only temporary.

With a sneer hooked at the corner of his mouth, he opened his mouth lightly and said, "Really?" He also said, "The coming day is long." ”

"I'll see how hard you can be." After saying this, a touch of cunning crossed her eyes, and after looking at her fixedly, she turned to leave.

"Master, your martial arts are above the charm, why don't you teach her a good lesson, so that her arrogance is still so arrogant! Hum! The iris said angrily.

"She is the side concubine who Emperor Yan is about to marry into the door, how can I do it easily?"

"But is the master just letting her bully her?"

"Naturally not." She said in a fixed voice: "Iris, you remember, the coming day is long." Momentary pride doesn't mean forever. ”

Iris glanced at her, frowned slightly, and nodded thoughtfully.

In the afternoon of the same day, the red silk was hung in the palace, but because of the snow, the red silk soon fell on the snowflakes, the red and white are beautiful, but there is a lot less joy. But even so, it did not affect the noisy entrance of the gongs and drums on the second day.

The house was too lively, and the people who came to congratulate Emperor Yan one after another, as if it was not over. The more lively the house, the more it sets off the depression and coldness of the Qinxin Pavilion. At this time, no one remembered the existence of a genuine princess in the mansion.

The subordinates in the palace were snobs, and when there was no other lord in the palace, they were not obvious, and now as soon as they entered the palace, there were many fewer coals that should be given to them that day.

There is less charcoal today, I don't know what will be less tomorrow, if this continues, how will she and her master live.

Iris took the few poor coals and went to the house of the shallow mulberry, replaced the old charcoal in the stove, replaced the new charcoal in it, waited for the stove to be hotter, took the stove to the shallow mulberry, and said: "Master, do you know that today is the first day of the palace, and the snobbs in the house have reduced the amount of charcoal we use to keep warm. ”

She glanced down at the stove in her hand, picked up the poured cup of tea, and slowly put it into her mouth.

Yesterday's snow still had a lot of not melted, some fell on the treetops, some fell on the eaves, some fell on the uneven flowers, she got up with the stove, walked towards the window, stood in the corner of the bed, leaned sideways against the windowsill, and said with a faint look in her eyes: "The charcoal is gone, and we will not freeze to death." ”

After that day, she didn't see Emperor Yan again, and the more she was at this time, the more she couldn't take the initiative to find him, which would make him look down on her, and make her suspect of deliberately currying favor.

She wanted him to think of her, and when he thought of her, he couldn't eat, and he couldn't sleep well.

Iris sighed softly and said no more.

Today's night is so slow, it may be that the palace has been lively for too long, and the red lanterns in the courtyard have been hanging for too long, so when the night comes, no one thinks that it is dark, and when the red lanterns are removed, everyone knows that the night has already come.

Iris fetched water for her feet, and while serving her to wash her feet, she asked her if the water temperature was right.

She didn't speak, only nodded, and after a while, she asked, "How are the horses of Siqin, Siqi, Sishu, and Sihua?" ”

Iris thought for a while and said, "The weather was good that day, and the slave saw that the four of them were walking in the yard, and they looked much more stable." ”

"That'll be fine." She said: "There were more things that happened a few days ago, and I don't have time to take care of them, as long as they are not lazy, if the weather is good tomorrow, I will start teaching them martial arts." ”

"Yes." Iris took the water from her feet and turned to pour it out.

At this time, she spoke: "Iris, you don't have to come here again after pouring the footwater, it's cold today, you can rest early." ”

Iris said, "Yes, the slave knows." ”

After the iris left, she got up barefoot, went up and closed the window, and when she had closed the window, she turned and walked towards the bed, where she had just sat down when she heard a knock at the door.

"Bang bang bang!"

She was slightly stunned, then her eyelashes moved slightly, and she glanced in the direction of the door, and instead of stepping forward to open the door, she blew out the candle flame at the head of the bed, and the room was suddenly plunged into darkness.

She did not lie down at once, but sat in the darkness for a while, and the silence in the room could only hear the sound of her heartbeat, and when she noticed that no one knocked at the door again, she lifted the quilt and lay down. He sighed softly and slowly closed his eyes.

"Bang!" She opened her eyes at once with a loud noise, and when she was about to sit up, she felt a drunken man stumbling towards her in the darkness.

"Who is it?" She retreated into the corner defensively, but the next second someone grabbed her shoulders and pulled her out of the corner, and then, the man opened his arms and hugged her tightly, and rested his head on her shoulder.

His breathing was a little heavy, and the smell of alcohol all over her let her know that he had drunk a lot.

She was no stranger to this embrace, and instead of pushing him away, she patted him on the back as if she were soothing, like a mother coaxing a child to sleep.

"Assa-san......"

The bright moonlight shone on her face through the gap in the window, and a layer of silver-white halo was plated on her beautiful face, only to see that her face was waveless, her eyes were ruthless, and she said softly: "The concubine is here." ”

"Do you know that today is the king's great day?"

"The concubine knows."

"Then why don't you go to the front hall to congratulate the king. Everyone arrived, but I didn't see you, don't you want to congratulate this king on marrying a side concubine? ”

The words in his mouth were sometimes slurred, sometimes vague, but fortunately she was close enough to hear them clearly. His eyes were a little colder, and he still said softly: "What is the prince talking about, the concubine is naturally willing to congratulate the prince, after all, the concubine hopes that the prince can be happy, and the prince is happy......"

"This king is not happy." Before she could finish the words in her mouth, he said this sentence in a hoarse voice: "Assan, this king is not happy, not happy at all. ”

If she had been, she would have felt distressed by his words, but now, her heart is as cold as an ice cube.

"Why?"

"Don't you know why? The king thought you would know......"

She didn't want to discuss emotional matters with him anymore, so she changed the topic and said: "Lord Wang, today is the candle night in your cave room, you should go to accompany the concubine." ”

"Are you driving this king away?" He suddenly got up and looked at her through the moonlight, this face was the person she had been looking forward to for many years, although Yin Mo and her were not the same person, but they had the same face, which was enough to make him think about it and worry about it......

He raised his hand slightly, his fingers lingered on her cheeks, and he saw her eyebrows, eyes, nose, and lips inch by inch: "Qiansang, do you know why this king wants to marry Mingmei?" The king thought you would be interested, but you never asked...... This king is so disappointed. ”

"Does the prince even blame the concubine for this? Marrying a wife is the prince's business, in this huge palace, although the concubine is your concubine, but you have never given the concubine real power, you know, many people in the palace do not take the concubine in their eyes, and even the coals given in the past few days are much less. Even such a trivial matter and a concubine can't be the master, let alone the big thing of marrying a wife, prince? ”
