Chapter 34: Intentions

"This ......" Sun Zheng and Sun An looked at each other, "it seems that he has already made a plan." ”

Sun Qi was noncommittal: "Yes, the emperor's city is absolutely above us, he absolutely does not need to rely on anyone, he just needs others to rely on him." ”

Sun Zheng suddenly stopped: "Actually, we can not hand over the military power. ”

Sun An was surprised: "What do you mean ......?"

Sun Zheng sneered: "With the strength of the three of us, can't we still fight the emperor?" ”

Sun Qi said calmly: "You are right, with the strength of the three of us, we can indeed fight the emperor, but don't forget, in addition to the emperor's own troops, the Su family should not be underestimated." ”

"The Queen?"

"Yes." Sun Qidao, "As far as I know, Guozhang has been secretly training troops, and the number of soldiers is definitely beyond our imagination. ”

Sun Zheng said categorically: "Impossible! How much grain and grass is needed to raise so many soldiers, does the emperor have it? ”

Sun Qi shook his head: "This is also what I have always been puzzled about. Everything about the emperor is so secretive, but we can't act rashly, otherwise we don't know how to lose our heads. ”

Sun An clenched his fists fiercely: "He has already become an emperor, and he is still so ambitious!" ”

Yes, he has become an emperor and got what he wants, so why should he force people to a dead end? Sun Qi was secretly frightened, which was also the reason why he had always been worried about calamus.

Being by Sun Wen's side is equivalent to being in the Tiger's Den Longtan, and he knows the relationship between Calamus and himself, and he will never let her go!

In Ruitai, Sun Wenkai attended the banquet with Su Ruyuan and Wen Jieyu.

The staggered plans are staggered, the silk and bamboo are pleasant, but everyone's hearts are turbulent.

Halfway through the wine, Sun An glanced at Sun Qi, he understood, and then got up and left.

Catching a glimpse of his figure, Wen Jieyu leaned close to Sun Wen's ear and whispered, "Your Majesty, is Lord Qi uncomfortable?" ”

Sun Wen looked up and saw Sun Qi's expression abnormal, and muttered: "Fu Rongbao." ”

Fu Rongbao came up: "Your Majesty? ”

At this time, Su Ruyuan turned his face and raised his glass: "The concubine respects the emperor with a glass." ”

Sun Wen suddenly changed his mind and stood up: "I feel a little hot, go change your clothes first and then come to drink with you." ”

He left the table with Fu Rongbao and went all the way in the direction of Sun Qi.

Seeing Sun Qi quietly turning into Yongxiang, Sun Wen suddenly stopped. Fu Rongbao was also shocked: "The emperor ......"

Sun Wen said in a deep voice: "You stay here, and I will follow by myself." ”

"The emperor is alone, and the slave is afraid of ......"

Sun Wen had already stepped up to follow.

Fu Rongbao was worried and sad at the same time: "Is this Qi Wang Ye drinking bad brains?" I didn't look at where it was, but I dared to go into Yongxiang......" He clasped his hands together, "God bless, Bodhisattva bless, Jade Emperor bless, don't make any trouble......"

In the hall of Yongxiang, the voices of Ping'er and Calamus were heard.

"In more than three months, the mother will give birth."

"Yes, I've been making belly pockets and jackets for my child lately, so that he can wear them when he is born."

"These emperors will definitely arrange it."

"I want to make some for my children myself." Calamus gradually revealed the peace and gentleness of a first-time mother, "Whether he is good or bad." ”

"Mother." Ping'er grabbed her hand, "Jiren has his own natural appearance, the dragon seed in your belly must be fine." ”

Calamus turned her head to wipe away her tears, saw a figure outside, and exclaimed, "Who is it?" ”

In a blink of an eye, the figure disappeared, and she said to Ping'er: "You lie down, I'll go out and have a look." ”

Calamus chased after him and asked at his back, "Who are you?" How did it end up here? ”

The man didn't look back.

"You ......"

Sun Qi turned around and saw the calamus with a shy stomach, with mixed tastes: "It's me." ”

"Lord Wang!" At that moment, Calamus was filled with joy and sorrow, "Why are you here?" ”

"I heard that you came to Yongxiang, I don't feel at ease, so let's take a look."

Calamus woke up like a dream and pushed his elbow: "I'm fine, it's easy for you to be found rashly, go quickly." ”

"Calamus, why did you decide to give birth to this child?" Sun Qi grabbed her instead, "This child has been hit by a hundred flowers." ”

Calamus avoided talking: "Lord Wang, you go quickly." ”

Her hand was clenched by him, unable to pull out.

"Calamus, I caused you to have today."

"Lord Wang, don't mention the past again, we can't do anything about it now."

"Calamus ......"

"Don't say anything like taking me away again, lord, I am already a concubine in the palace, even in Yongxiang, I am also a person in the palace, if I go with you, I will harm you."

The two of them forgot each other, which is the pain that they can't recall.

Sending Sun Qi away, Calamus felt that her eyes were sour, she took out a handkerchief and was about to wipe it, when she suddenly felt someone behind her, turned around, and saw Sun Wen looking at herself.

"The Emperor's ......"

Sun Wen took a step back, turned around and left.

Calamus bred her waist and chased after her: "Your Majesty! Emperor! He grabbed the corner of Sun Wen's clothes, "Things are not as ...... as you think."

Sun Wen looked at her with hatred that he had never felt before, pulled out his sleeves stiffly, and left resolutely.

Watching Sun Wen come out of Yongxiang, Fu Rongbao hurriedly followed: "Your Majesty ......"

He acted like he was fine: "Go back." ”

Seeing him like this, Fu Rongbao felt a chill in his heart.

Seeing that Calamus was standing motionless for a long time, Ping'er struggled out: "Niangniang, who were you shouting just now?" Is it calling the emperor? ”

Calamus came back to her senses, found that her face was cold, and she hurriedly wiped her tears with her hands, and turned around: "Your Majesty, he's gone?" ”

Ping'er leaned against the door: "Gone?" Why didn't he come in? ”

"He saw Lord Qi."

"Lord Qi?" Ping'er exclaimed, "How could he come ......"

"This was carefully arranged by someone, and then the emperor was lured to follow."

"In that case, why didn't Niangniang explain it to the emperor?"

Calamus thought of the moment just now, he pulled out his sleeves fiercely, and snorted: "He is such a proud person, he has seen me and Lord Qi together again and again, especially in Yongxiang...... He couldn't accept it anyway. ”

"But this is not something that Niangniang can control, the emperor is so smart that he won't guess that someone did it on purpose."

In this matter, he doesn't care about whether someone has framed him, but ...... He had completely lost hope in me. After every forgiveness, Sun Wen would increase his heart, and after coming to Yongxiang, he explained all his thoughts to Calamus, and now he has nothing to say.

As smart as gladiolus, how could he not know that he was really disheartened before leaving?

"Mother's ......"

"I'll help you in and lie down." Calamus helped her to the bedside, Ping'er looked at her and asked cautiously, "Niangniang, have you cried?" ”

"Really?" Calamus hurriedly turned her head.

"Your eyes are red."

"Maybe it was blown by the wind." Calamus stood up, "I'm tired too, go back to the room to rest first." ”

"The emperor has feelings."

"Is there one?"

"So you will cry when the emperor leaves angrily, Niangniang, don't you still admit that you have been moved by the emperor?"

Calamus smiled helplessly: "Maybe." ”

I remember that Sun Wen mentioned before that after two people get along for a long time, they will become more and more inseparable from each other. The moment he pulled out his hand, she was actually struggling incomparably in her heart, wanting to say something but not knowing how to say it.

Wenning Palace.

Wen Jieyu looked panicked, and hurriedly bowed her head and said: "Niangniang forgives her sins, the concubine doesn't want to occupy the emperor and stay here, but the emperor has been depressed these days, and he won't go anywhere else." ”

"The emperor is in a bad mood?" Su Ruyuan said slowly, "I see. So this palace wants to ask my sister, why is the emperor in a bad mood? "This...... The emperor didn't mention it. ”

Su Ruyuan smiled contemptuously: "The emperor hasn't gone to Yongxiang to see Tang Yipu's slut in the past few days, do you think this matter will have anything to do with her?" ”

"The concubine really doesn't know."

Su Ruyuan stared at her fiercely, then approached her and stroked her belly, full of anticipation: "Losing gladiolus, the most favored person in the harem is Wen Jieyu, I don't know when I will hear the good news of Wen Jieyu?" She leaned close to Wen Jieyu's ear, "Tang Calamus's child is destined to be wasted, yours will be fine, right?" ”

Wen Jieyu changed color when she heard the voice.

Su Ruyuan took a few steps back, smiling like a flower: "This palace will come and take a look when you pass by here, Wen Jieyu, don't be surprised." ”

Wen Jieyu forced a smile and said, "How come? The queen mother, the concubine is too late to be happy. ”

"It's not too early, Yan'er is still waiting for the palace to go back." Su Ruyuan turned around, "Go back to the palace." ”

After she left, there was still a lingering fragrance behind her.

Wen Jieyu sat down with a pale face, she subconsciously touched her belly, and murmured softly: "Why don't I want children, but ......"

Tears fell one by one, indescribable sadness and loneliness.

She wiped away her tears: "Come on, wait for the palace to change clothes, the palace is going to the Chengqian Palace." ”

When she arrived at Chengqian Palace, the palace people wanted to go in to report that they were stopped by Wen Jieyu, and she said softly: "The palace will go in by itself." ”

Because she is the favored concubine of the emperor, the palace people will naturally not be disobedient.

She crept into the main hall, the palace was wide, and around the long bright yellow curtain, she saw the familiar figure.

Just wanted to step forward, but heard Fu Rongbao's voice: "Your Majesty, go to Yongxiang to see Niangniang, she is pregnant and there is no one around her...... Niangniang now walks around the old garden in Yongxiang every day. ”

Sun Wen was silent.

Fu Rongbao almost pleaded: "Your Majesty, have you forgotten that you and Niangniang are giving each other a chance?" ”

Sun Wen stopped writing, a big drop of ink fell on the fold, he lowered his head, and said calmly: "I'm tired." ”

"......"

Wen Jieyu stepped forward: "Your Majesty." ”

Seeing her, Sun Wen couldn't help but smile: "Wen Hua, why are you here?" ”

Fu Rongbao hurriedly saluted: "The slave sees Wen Jieyu." ”

Wen Jieyu walked up the stairs: "There is something, the concubine wants to ask the emperor for permission." ”

"Say what?"

Wen Jieyu was a little embarrassed, looked at Fu Rongbao below, and stopped talking.

Sun Wen naturally understood what she meant, and said softly: "Fu Rongbao is not an outsider, just say it." ”

Wen Jieyu leaned close to him and whispered in his ear for a while.

"Huh? Then why didn't you tell me, I wasn't prepared. ”

Wen Jieyu pulled his arm intentionally or unintentionally: "There is nothing missing in the palace concubines." ”

Sun Wen thought for a while: "Okay, if you have any wishes, I will definitely help you achieve them." ”

"Really?"

"You don't joke."

Wen Jieyu suddenly smiled and pulled him up: "Then today's concubine will have the audacity to borrow the emperor's day." ”

It was rare for her to make a request, and Sun Wen naturally agreed: "Today's birthday is your birthday, you are the biggest, I will listen to you." ”

Seeing that the situation was not good, Fu Rongbao wanted to step forward: "Your Majesty, she is still ...... Niangniang"

Wen Jieyu said to Sun Wen: "No one is allowed to take it with me today, so the concubines will protect the emperor's safety?" ”

Sun Wen flicked his hand: "Fu Rongbao, step aside." ”

"The Emperor's ......"

"Stand down."

Fu Rongbao glanced at Wen Jieyu and retreated silently.

Wen Jieyu looked at his back: "Your Majesty, is it not the right time for the concubines to come?" Grandpa Fu seems to have something to say. ”

Sun Wen hid the unpleasant breath and smiled slightly: "It's okay, by the way, what do you want me to do?" ”

Wen Jieyu smiled sweetly and took his hand: "The emperor is going with his concubine." ”

In Yongxiang, Calamus has been sitting quietly on the stone bench, and Ping'er looks out from time to time: "Why haven't you come yet?" Uncle said he would definitely come in a moment. ”

Calamus pursed her mouth tightly and gently stroked her stomach with her hand: "Ping'er, let's go back." ”

Ping'er hurriedly said: "Don't, Niangniang, didn't you say, do you have something to say to the emperor?" Uncle is the chief supervisor of the emperor's house, and he will definitely bring the emperor here. ”

Seeing her so anxious, Calamus leaned on her: "Then wait a little longer." ”

In fact, she didn't know what she wanted to say to Sun Wen, but the disappointed look in his eyes before leaving that night made her a little unwilling after all.

But he probably won't come.

After waiting for a while, she stood up and walked to the door of Yongxiang to pull Ping'er's hand: "It's not too early, let's go." ”

Ping'er said vigorously: "Uncle never makes mistakes, what's going on?" ”

She raised her head and suddenly exclaimed: "Your Majesty! ”

Calamus, who had already turned around, suddenly turned around, but her expression was fixed there. From a distance, I saw Wen Jieyu holding Sun Wen's hand tightly, leaning on his shoulder, and snuggling up to each other.

She said: "Actually, whether the birthday is born or not, it is not important to the concubine at all, and the concubine will be satisfied if she can walk with the emperor in the palace." ”

Sun Wen laughed: "Your requirements are really low. ”

Wen Jieyu pursed her lips and smiled: "The concubine still has a reluctant request." ”

"I said that you are the biggest today, and I will listen to you."

"Tonight...... The emperor should go to someone else. ”

"On the day of your birthday, you actually drove me away?"

Wen Jieyu was half coquettish: "But what the emperor just said, if you listen to your concubines today, you are not allowed to go back." ”

Sun Wen couldn't help laughing: "Wen Hua, when did you become so cunning." ”

Wen Hua suddenly stopped: "Hey, isn't that Concubine An?" ”

Suddenly looked up and saw her and Ping'er standing at the door of Yongxiang one after the other, looking at them.

Shocking.

Wen Jieyu said embarrassedly: "It turns out that unknowingly, I actually came to Yongxiang ......"

Wen Jieyu saw him standing still, so she walked over by herself and smiled: "I didn't expect to meet Concubine An Niangniang here, are you still used to living in Yongxiang these days?" ”

Ping'er was so angry that she couldn't help but say: "Even if Niangniang stays in Yongxiang forever, she won't be rare to fight with others or anything!" ”

"Ping'er! Monkey business! Calamus reprimanded her a few words, "Don't be rude in front of the emperor and Wen Jieyu." ”

She bowed her head and owed herself: "Your Majesty, Wen Jieyu, the concubine retired first." ”

Leaving with his back to Sun Wen.

Tears ran down her cheeks and fell to the ground little by little.

She thought that her feelings for Sun Qi were as hard as a rock, and at this moment she realized that what she was nostalgic for would never be obtained.

It was, and it is.

Wen Jieyu turned around, and Sun Wen didn't know when she had come to her: "Wen Hua, let's go." ”

Along the way, the two walked one after the other, much more than when they came.

Sending her back to Wenning Palace, looking at Sun Wen's gloomy face, Wen Jieyu couldn't help but say: "Today's matter, the emperor will definitely blame the concubines." ”

"What do you blame?"

"It was the concubine who deliberately took the emperor to Yongxiang." Wen Jieyu bit her lip, "Just now in Chengqian Palace, the concubine heard what Fu Rongbao said to the emperor, so she ......"

"The matter between me and her cannot be solved in a few words."

"The emperor's feelings for her can't be erased in a few words."

Sun Wen smiled helplessly: "You go in, I will go back to Chengqian Palace by myself." ”

Wen Jieyu owed: "Congratulations to the emperor." ”

"Wen Hua."

"Is the emperor still in trouble?"

Sun Wen looked at her earnestly: "Today you took me to Yongxiang, is it really so that I can see her?" ”

"Yes, the concubine said that the emperor is happy, and the concubine is happy."

"Let's go inside." Sun Wen put his hands behind his back, "Listen to you, I won't be here tonight." ”

After several princes were sent back to Beijing, Sun Wen rewarded their mansions.

On this day, when the heat was unbearable, Sun An specially sweated and went to the Qiwang Mansion.

Sun Qi was accompanying Bi Luo to feed the koi by the pool, and Bi Luo smiled beside him: "Since I came back, this is the first time I have seen the prince so interested." ”

Sun Qi looked at the koi and smiled: "This king said that as long as you can be at peace with what you encounter, it is enough." ”

Sun An called him: "Sun Qi! ”

"Why are you here?"

Sun An said as he walked: "I came, naturally I will tell you the people and things you want to know." ”

Sun Qi subconsciously looked at Biluo on the side, she took the bait and owed it: "The two princes have a slow chat, I'll go down and ask them to send some refreshments." ”

It wasn't until after she left that Sun An grabbed him: "Sure enough! Since you went to Yongxiang, the emperor has never seen Concubine An again. ”

"This ...... What does it mean? ”

"It shows that the emperor minds very much, and he cares very much about you and Concubine An." Sun An's eyes widened, "He knows that you went to see Concubine An, and he was annoyed, jealous and hateful." ”

"What do you mean......"

"Yes, the emperor loves Concubine An." Sun An affirmed, "Otherwise, how could he not have stopped the robbery of Concubine An in the middle of the night?" This time you go to Yongxiang, he dares to be angry and dare not speak. All this shows that he cares about Concubine An very much. ”

Sun Qi followed Sun An's meaning and asked, "The emperor cares about her very much, so what?" ”

"You're stupid!" Sun An looked around, and only relieved when he saw that there was no one, "The emperor cares about Concubine An, can't you use her to deal with the emperor?" ”

Sun Qi's expression was pale: "How can I use calamus to blackmail the emperor?" ”

Sun An was very unimpressed: "So what? She is already the emperor's person, and she is still pregnant with his flesh and blood, is it possible that you still want to be with her? ”

Sun Qi's lips pursed and he didn't say a word.

"And...... I also heard that ...... "Sun An deliberately played tricks on Guan Zi, his eyes squinted at Sun Qi, "there is a ...... about the emperor's life experience"

Sun Qi was a little suspicious: "About the emperor's life experience?" ”

Sun An sneered slightly: "I don't know where the gossip came from, saying that the emperor ......"

"Come closer."

Sun An whispered in Sun Qi's ear.

Sure enough, Sun Qi's eyes widened and his expression changed in shock: "Is there such a thing?" ”

Sun Wen patted his chest with his hand: "So, in fact, you are not completely losing, the good show is still to come." ”

"This ......"

Sun An said: "My mother concubine came from a humble background, and there is no power to support me in the court. But you're different, after all, you were only one step away from the throne at the beginning, and although the forces that supported you were almost wiped out by the emperor, there were always some remnants. ”

Sun Qi glanced at him: "The emperor is not thin on you, why do you still want to go against him?" ”

"Because ......," Sun An clenched his fists, "he snatched what was supposed to belong to me." ”

That kind of gritted hatred, I don't want to giggle Sun An on weekdays.

After he left, Sun Qi was still standing by the koi pond.

"Lord Wang?" Bi Luo came over with a snack and saw that there was no one around, "Where is King An?" ”

Sun Qi turned around, retracted Fang Cai's loss, and smiled gently: "Sun An, he's gone." ”

Bilo let out an "oh" and commanded, "Take these down." ”

Seeing Sun Qi's solemn face, she asked cautiously, "Lord Wang, are you okay?" ”

Sun Qi turned to a smile: "It's okay, you go down, this king will feed the fish here." ”

"Yes, the concubine is retiring."

At this time, a person approached behind him and saluted him: "Lord, things are as expected before, King Zheng and King An are both suspicious of the emperor's background. ”

Sun Qi looked at the koi swimming in the water: "Well, this king knows, step down." ”

Listening to the sound of departing footsteps, Sun Qi stopped feeding the bait and turned to watch them quietly.

He himself used to be like this koi, carefree and free. But since the coup d'Γ©tat, everything has changed, he endured humiliation and lived secretly, and now almost a year has passed, and he can no longer sit still.

Sun Wen, even if you are ruthless enough, desperate enough, stepping on the blood of my mother and my shame to ascend to the throne, but do you know that it does not belong to you. It never belonged to you.

Calamus, he once loved deeply, and even now he still does not forget her friendship for him, but now he must open his own avenue and remove the thorns around him.

He silently said in his heart: That night was the last time I went to see you, for your love for me.

Spring goes to the summer solstice, summer ends with autumn, and it enters winter in a blink of an eye.

In winter, there were several snowfalls, and the snow covered the continuous temples with no end in sight.

The surroundings are very quiet, and the Yongxiang is so quiet that there is no sound.

Calamus was half-sitting on the cold kang, covered with a thin quilt, and Ping'er kept rubbing her feet with her hands to keep her warm: "Is Niangniang still cold?" ”

Since coming to Yongxiang, the iris has not applied fat powder to the sky, with a green silk draped over her shoulders, and she is indescribably gentle and peaceful: "Ping'er, I'm not cold, I'm just worried about the child in my belly." ”

Ping'er was also worried: "Yes, it's been more than half a month since the Tai Doctor's budget was exceeded, and Niangniang's stomach hasn't moved yet." Niangniang, why don't you go and find the doctor? ”
