Chapter 21: The Emperor and the Maid

An Ronghua stayed in Xia Bingliang's room and waited for him to return. Xia Bingliang, who didn't know the truth, went back to the house and pushed the door in, only to see An Ronghua sitting in his room domineeringly, with murderous intent in his eyes.

"Gu Nu, this is my room, right?" Xia Bingliang hesitated for a moment.

Xiang Gu saw An Ronghua and retreated.

"Let's be honest, you pretended to be kind enough to send me wild fruits yesterday, and you were plotting against me with your Aunt Feng. ”

Xia Bingliang was silent for a while, and An Ronghua pierced this fact with one sentence, what else could he do from the truth.

"I thought that I and Xiao Liang'er had released their old suspicions and were like a family. An Ronghua suddenly deepened.

"Who is with your family, don't forget that you are just a slave!" Xia Bingliang said more and more quietly, "You won't have any intentions against my father, right?"

"If I had tried anything against your father, nothing would have happened to you!"

An Ronghua couldn't help but imagine that back then, if she hadn't broken up with Xia Huaijin, the two would eventually become married, maybe there would be no Xia Bingliang in this world.

"You ......"

"Hurry up, don't get away from the topic, what are you and that scheming Aunt Feng calculating against me!" An Ronghua took out the momentum of torture to extract a confession.

Xiang Gu heard that the form was wrong, no matter how arrogant Gu Nu was, she was not qualified to teach Xia Bingliang, His Royal Highness, the prince, a loud lesson.

Xia Bingliang came with An Ronghua with red ears, vaguely not mentioning those men and women, and expressed Aunt Feng's suspicions with himself, and An Ronghua was furious when he heard it.

"It's just that Aunt Feng has a dirty mind herself, and she still talks to you about this, it seems that my punishment for her is too light, and she should tear her mouth apart!"

If An Ronghua hadn't ceased to be the queen mother, and had sent someone under the fence, and promised Xia Huaijin to keep her duty, she would have severely punished Aunt Feng. It's just that now, because of her identity, she can't do what she wants.

"It's ridiculous, it's just ......"

"It's just what, you stupid boy, why can't you be as mature as your father back then, you can still trust a little slut to sow discord at the age of fifteen, your father is fifteen years old, ......" An Ronghua's angry words stopped abruptly, and he couldn't say that Xia Huaijin was fifteen years old and her ups and downs, and he made a private decision for life, "I don't know what it is!"

"I just mind, if you're really my father's woman......"

"If I want to, don't talk about just an aunt, even the princess, I don't care about it!" An Ronghua was extremely arrogant and domineering.

An Ronghua would never have thought that as soon as she said this, she asked Xiang Gu to find a solution, and Xia Huaijin, who was still hesitant in the courtyard, listened.

"It seems that your heart is high and your ambitions are far-reaching, which is not something that this king's little palace can accommodate. Xia Huaijin appeared in the door frame, her expression indescribably indifferent.

"Father!"

"Wai...... Lord Wang!" An Ronghua suddenly became nervous, all her accustomed remarks sounded to Xia Huaijin as inconsequential and unstoppable, "It's over, my disdainful words, in the final analysis, refuted Huaijin's face, he is afraid that he will be so angry that he will expel me!"

"The king thought that rumors would stop at the wise, but it seems that today, the king must open his mouth to clarify the matter, lest a noble-minded woman who disdain the position of princess be wronged in the palace. Xia Huaijin was inexplicably indifferent.

"Clarify, clarify what?" An Ronghua was stunned for a moment.

"Liang'er, listen well, Gu Nu is the palace maid next to your queen mother's aunt, and she was placed on her father's mansion for some reasons. If it weren't for the relationship between the queen mother, of course, there would be no need for my father to favor her in everything and protect her. As for not explaining this matter all the time, it is better to have more than one thing to do less, so that she can't rely on the queen mother's backer to be a powerful fortune in the palace, but now it seems that she is just as big as she is talking and doing the same thing, and the situation will be further serious. ”

After Xia Huaijin finished speaking, even the wind became quiet.

An Ronghua really admired Xia Huaijin's logic, but he also protested against it, and said: "What is storage? Why is there no need to protect me? How can I be powerful, and besides, my words and deeds are excessive...... Maybe a little, but I always have!"

An Ronghua demonstrated from arrogance to weakness, and then arrogant again.

"I see. Xia Bingliang suddenly realized, "No wonder you learn from the Queen Mother's aunt to call me Xiaoliang'er." ”

"No wonder it's so arrogant!" Xiang Gu nodded repeatedly outside the door.

An Ronghua's identity and origin were explained and spread, and the most satisfied with this matter was none other than Aunt Feng.

Aunt Feng and Aunt Wei came to enjoy the flowers and feed the fish in the Spring Water Pavilion, and they talked about this matter.

"I thought it was a terrible woman, what about the queen mother's palace maid? Isn't it just a cheap maid! But now that the identity is clear, since she is the queen mother's person, she doesn't dare to make any attempts against the prince. Aunt Feng swept away her fear of An Ronghua.

As soon as Xia Huaijin explained, Xia Bingliang's last concern about An Ronghua also disappeared, and even Xiang Gu was a lot more arrogant in front of her.

"Originally, I thought that Gu Nu would become the new aunt of the palace, but I really didn't dare to imagine how far the prince would go against her, but now I'm not afraid!" Xiang Gu and the others said idly.

A flying "fruit" hit Xiang Gu's head, he looked around, and the moment he saw An Ronghua's angry eyes, he was still terrified.

"I, I won't tell you more, tomorrow the prince will enter the palace to practice riding and archery, I have to prepare. "Xiang Gu ran away.

An Ronghua was obsessed with Huaixia Huaijin's explanation, how could he have been so clear between them.

"Explain, clarify, it's just a maid next to the Queen Mother, the mourning family is dignified, the Queen Mother!"

After dinner, Xia Bingliang packed up his armor and Yi Yue*, full of anticipation, tomorrow is the day he enters the palace to practice riding and archery.

An Ronghua also cares about the situation in the palace and misses the emperor's son.

Early the next morning, An Ronghua blocked in front of Xia Bingliang's room and wanted to enter the palace with him.

"Brother Huang allowed me to enter the palace to practice riding and archery, and it is not in accordance with the rules to take you. Xia Bingliang refused.

"How is it not in accordance with the rules, I would have ...... It's a palace maid. An Ronghua was righteous.

"That's right. Xia Bingliang reminded An Ronghua, "But you must not run around in the palace, after all, it is temporarily stored in the palace......

"Okay, I know, I've been in the palace longer than you. ”

The school field in the palace has a vast land and is well-equipped.

The little eunuch in the royal stables led Xia Bingliang to choose a horse, and An Ronghua pointed to a red and brown horse and said, "The red horse is docile, so let it be." ”

The little eunuch glanced at Xia Bingliang, and he nodded in agreement.

Xia Bingliang practiced riding and archery at the archery range, but An Ronghua pestered the little eunuch to ask questions.

"How is the emperor doing recently?"

"Huh?" the little eunuch was puzzled.

"Why are you stunned, don't you know how to reply?" An Ronghua sighed, "The rules in this palace should be strict." ”

"The slave is just a lowly little eunuch in the Imperial Horse Farm, and it is rare to see the holy face. The little eunuch replied with trepidation.

"Yes. An Ronghua realized that he cared about it.

"The emperor ordered him to come down before, and today the prince of King Jin entered the palace to practice riding and archery, and the emperor mentioned that when he went down to the court, he would come to see the prince. The little eunuch thought of Chao and said.

Bingwen values brotherhood the most in his heart, and he is like that. An Ronghua was relieved in his heart, but changed his face to accuse, "Do you know that you can't easily reveal the emperor's whereabouts, if someone with bad intentions has bad intentions, you will be in danger of the emperor." ”

"The slave knows his mistake!" the little eunuch was forced by An Ronghua's deterrent.

"Spare you today, I'm naturally not a bad person, you can rest assured to tell me. An Ronghua returned to calm.

"Yes. ”

An Ronghua waited quietly, relying on his son for many years, how could the family affection between mother and son be more than water.

Xia Bingliang dismounted to rest for a while, and An Ronghua led the red horse into deep thought.

"Father, Imperial Brother!"

Xia Bingliang called back An Ronghua's thoughts, she turned sharply and saw Xia Huaijin and Xia Bingwen who came together, and she was overjoyed for a moment, then she turned her head and stuck to the horse.

"Huaijin can't even recognize me, Bingwen should also ......"

Xia Huaijin noticed An Ronghua, who was hiding sneakily, but did not speak, but Xia Bingwen went straight to Xia Bingliang.

"Liang'er practiced well?" Xia Bingliang asked.

"So-so, I still have to ask Brother Pope!" Xia Bingliang is humble and close to Xia Bingwen.

"Don't be presumptuous. Xia Huaijin scolded.

"Between brothers, how can you be presumptuous. "Xia Bingwen has no emperor frame at this time.

Xia Bingwen doesn't look like An Ronghua, just like Xia Bingliang doesn't look like Xia Huaijin.

An Ronghua had imagined countless scenes of her reunion with Xia Bingwen's mother and son, but the only thing she didn't think would be that she would hide behind the horse secretly like this, and she didn't dare to recognize her own child openly.

But seeing the smile on Xia Bingwen's face, An Ronghua was still relieved.

"Why don't I ride around again and let the imperial brother and father see and give advice. Xia Bingliang proposed.

Xia Bingliang took the horse away, and An Ronghua had nowhere to escape.

"Who is she?"

"Slave and maid, I've seen the emperor!" An Ronghua just lowered his head in a panic.

"No courtesy. ”

Xia Huaijin is unusual, Gu Nu is not afraid of the sky and the earth on weekdays, and everyone dares to be arrogant, but at this time, facing the emperor of the Ninety-Five, is she still afraid to raise her head?

Xia Bingliang circled the field, his archery skills were remarkable, An Ronghua was quiet, but he only cared about the conversation between Xia Huaijin and Xia Bingwen.

"Recently, the court has been stable, and the queen mother has been away from the palace for a while, and I don't know when she will return. Xia Bingwen talked about his mother and expressed his worries about being a son of man.

"The queen mother also wants to come back!" An Ronghua sighed silently.

"The Queen Mother, she is just a whim, she has seen enough of the flowers and spring, and she should come back. ”

"Next month is the date of the post-election ceremony set by the queen mother and the hundred officials, she shouldn't forget about it, right?"

"After the election, I almost forgot that there was such a big event!" An Ronghua blamed himself for forgetting that this was one of the most important events in the world.

Xia Bingliang rode back and forth in a circle, and invited the emperor to join him with great interest.

"Brother Huang, how about we run a lap together?"

"No problem. ”

The little eunuch of the imperial horse led the horse, Xia Bingwen jumped on the horse, and galloped with Xia Bingliang on the horse farm.

Xia Huaijin inadvertently revealed a mixture of relief and sadness, unconsciously, he was no longer his young and vigorous self, and time was so ruthless.

But the heavens were not ruthless, and once again sent the Gu Nu to him, waiting for his discovery.
