Ping'er said cautiously: "There is one thing, the slave doesn't know whether to talk about it or not." ”

"There are no outsiders here, you can just say it if you have something to say."

Although the slave is stupid, it can be seen that the mother has no intention of competing for favor. The slave and maid dare to say that even if the mother is stubborn, don't be stubborn with the emperor to the end. In the palace, after all, it is the emperor who is respected. ”

Calamus glanced at her: "In the few months since you and me, you have grown a lot. ”

"The slave just said what she wanted to say, please don't be surprised."

Calamus's hands were secretly clasped between his sleeves, very hard: "This palace can only work hard for himself to live, and the rest can't take care of so much." ”

She thought that she should be more unwilling to Sun Wen herself.

The goal he had worked so hard to create, because of him, everything changed dramatically.

Ping'er said again: "In the palace, with the emperor, won't the mother be able to live in peace?" ”

"Ping'er, I've been a palace maid in this palace for eight years, and I'm used to seeing those women being favored and falling out of favor, and men's favor is just a passing cloud, how can I rely on it?"

Ping'er smiled slightly: "The slave maid naturally knows that the mother will not rely on the emperor, but it is better to live in peace with the emperor than to be noisy." ”

The calamus fell silent.

After a while, she asked, "Where is the emperor going tonight?" ”

"Originally, I came to the East Palace, but the Chengqian Palace spread the word that the emperor couldn't come."

Calamus said "oh": "It's okay, you go down." ”

Ping'er retreated silently.

It was only when she got outside that she let out a deep sigh.

"Ping'er!" At the end of the corridor, Fu Rongbao beckoned to her, "Come here." ”

Ping'er listened to the movement inside again, and then tiptoed over: "Uncle." ”

Fu Rongbao asked her: "Did you say everything I asked you to say?" ”

"It's all said."

"What's her reaction?"

Ping'er said helplessly: "What I said was rejected one by one, and I almost couldn't resist it." ”

"What?" Fu Rongbao was angry and annoyed, "Then did she say anything?" ”

Ping'er scratched her head: "After finishing speaking, Niangniang let me come out." ”

"You girl, are you so clumsy in front of your mother? I'm really. ”

Ping'er is the niece of Fu Rongbao's family, and no one knows about it.

Ping'er was unconvinced: "Where, Niangniang just said that I have grown a lot." ”

Fu Rongbao was even more angry: "Anyway, the matter has come to this, it depends on her own will." ”

Ping'er was quite puzzled: "Uncle, why does Niangniang hate the emperor so much?" ”

Fu Rongbao didn't know how to explain for a while: "Uh...... Do you hate it because you like it? ”

"But I really can't see that my mother likes the emperor?"

Fu Rongbao couldn't help but knock her chestnut: "So you are the master, you are a girl!" Where is it so easy to see? ”

Ping'er said innocently: "Oh. ”

"You have to do things seriously, please the mother, and then praise the emperor in front of the mother."

Ping'er said innocently: "Didn't uncle say that Niangniang likes the emperor?" Then do you still need slaves and maids to boast? ”

"Call you stupid, you're really stupid."

Chengqian Palace, there was silence.

Sun Wen was busy at the desk, and when he heard the footsteps, he said, "Fu Rongbao, I'm thirsty." ”

After a while, the tea was served, and he reached out to take it, but he didn't feel a faint fragrance, and looked up: "Why are you here?" ”

The orangutan felt on the calamus has not been taken off yet, and there is snow happelt on it, like an innocent girl: "The concubine passed by the Chengqian Palace, and came to see if the emperor was asleep." ”

"Oh?" Sun Wen looked outside, "Why do you pass by so late?" Aifei really has a heart. ”

Knowing that he didn't believe it, Calamus didn't defend it, and smiled: "I heard that the emperor hasn't had dinner yet, and the concubine ordered the imperial dining room to prepare something to eat, right?" ”

She is such a person, even if there is nothing to say between the two, she can find something to talk about.

"I'm not hungry, I'm tired." Sun Wen threw away the imperial pen and pinched his shoulder blade, "My neck is sore." ”

Calamus walked over and pinched his shoulders with both hands: "If the emperor doesn't dislike the clumsiness of the concubine, the concubine will pinch it for you." ”

Sun Wen simply squinted his eyes and looked very happy: "Come here so late and be very attentive, do you have something to do?" ”

"No matter what the emperor's purpose is to cover up the events of that night, the concubines thank the emperor from the bottom of their hearts for this kindness." At the end, Calamus said again, "The concubine said this sincerely." ”

"I'm thanking you for your little lover, right?"

The iris does not sound.

Sun Wen sneered: "What? Guessed by me? ”

"The emperor can not believe in his concubines, why doesn't he even believe in himself?"

"I don't believe I can convince you."

Calamus's voice came from his head in a low voice: "The concubine will not forget what she is. ”

Sun Wen pressed her hand: "I won't investigate what happened that night." ”

"For the sake of the royal family's face, it really shouldn't be investigated."

"I didn't check it because there was another reason. Do you want to know? ”

Calamus shook her head: "I don't want to know, the concubine only knows that she hasn't done anything that is out of her identity." Not only the concubines won't, but the prince is not that kind of person. ”

"Keep your head down, there's snow in your hair."

Calamus lowered her head, caught off guard by him and hugged him tightly for a deep kiss.

Instead of resisting, her mind went blank, not knowing how to respond.

Just as it was thick, Wen Jieyu's voice came from the ground outside: "The concubine asks to see the emperor." ”

Sun Wen was busy and came to let go of the calamus.

The calamus was also stunned.

Sun Wen said unnaturally: "That...... Originally, Wen Jieyu was summoned to come, but I didn't expect you to come......"

Calamus blushed slightly: "It turned out that the concubine came out of nowhere, and she didn't think about it." ”

"Either I ...... or not"

The door of the hall was pushed open, and Wen Jieyu was also a little embarrassed when she saw that Calamus was present: "It turns out ...... The lady-in-waiting was also there. ”

Calamus hurriedly owed: "The concubine retired first." ”

She smiled at Wen Jieyu and left in a hurry.

Wen Jieyu cautiously asked Sun Wen: "Your Majesty?" ”

Sun Wen had already returned to normal in an instant, and smiled gently: "You are here, I have been waiting for you for a long time." I heard that snow is falling outside, is it cold? ”

When the calamus who walked outside heard this, she suddenly stopped and stayed in place.

I only heard Wen Jieyu say: "It's quite cold." I didn't expect the emperor to summon his concubines tonight, which was surprising enough. ”

Sun Wen: "I haven't seen you for a few days, I miss you." ”

Calamus looked at the snow gravels that were falling from the sky, and suddenly felt cold.

Seeing that Calamus was gone, Fu Rongbao looked at the inner hall, and Erzhang was puzzled: "People are here, why did they happen to meet Wen Jieyu?" Alas......"

After coming out of the Chengqian Palace, Calamus walked back to the East Palace alone with the palace lamp.

This time she came, it was indeed unexpected, she also hesitated for a long time to see Sun Wen, she just wanted to give him an explanation, a thanks.

It was late at night, and the road was dark, and she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy when she thought about that night, so she walked extra carefully.

The Yanxia Lake in the Imperial Garden was lit up with lights, and looking at the light from far and near, Irisa couldn't help but stop and watch for a while.

The wind ruffled her hair, revealing a faint chill, and a figure stretched out on the lantern.

Before Irislam could turn around, a voice came from behind her: "What are you doing alone?" ”

When she heard the voice, she didn't look back, but made a gesture to leave.

"Calamus!" Sun Qi grabbed her hand violently, "If you don't want to see me, why did you intercede for me that day?" ”

Calamus silently broke free of his palm: "The prince said that he laughed." This palace had an awkward quarrel with the emperor that day, because I didn't want to see you innocently wronged. ”

Sun Qi stiffly wrenched her body, and her bright eyes were like a light in the dark night: "Is it really just like this?" ”

"Otherwise, what does the prince think?"

"Is he good to you?"

"He is the emperor, and this palace is just the most ordinary concubine, he has the final say on whether it is good or not, and this palace itself thinks it is good."

"You lie, he doesn't treat you well at all. I heard that he caused you to have a miscarriage because of his treatment of you, and a few days ago he punished you for sleeping outside all night......"

Before he could finish speaking, Calamus interrupted: "This palace doesn't know where the prince heard these nonsense. The emperor is really good to the palace, and it is by no means like those rumors say. ”

"Good and bad, you know in your own heart." Sun Qi looked at her and couldn't see her heart, "Although I don't know why you said unkind words at that time, and I don't know why you suddenly became the emperor's person, but one day I will know the answer." ”

Calamus pursed her lips: "The matter has passed, why should the prince be obsessed?" ”

"You never know how important your place is in my heart." Sun Qi's words were like a knife, cutting at Calamus's heart, "It's been five years, I've known you for five years." I never believed that the woman named Gladiolus would betray me mercilessly. ”

In the cold wind, Calamus smiled lightly: "The prince is too naïve, in the world, either people have changed things or things have changed people, all in all, everything will change, not to mention feelings." ”

"Calamus ......"

"It's not too early, it's time to go back. The prince entered the palace late at night, which was really against the palace rules, and he hoped to do it himself. With that, Calamus owed a debt and left.

Sun Qi watched her go, his back getting farther and farther away, and he suddenly remembered that at night a long time ago, he also sent Calamus back to the house, watching her disappear in front of him with a lamp. All the good memories poured out at this time. Seeing that Calamus was about to disappear in front of him, he suddenly rushed up and hugged her from behind: "Calamus, come with me." ”

The lantern in Calamus's hand fell to the ground.

Sun Qi behind him hugged her and refused to let go: "Didn't you say that you want a stable life?" Let's go to a place where there are no strife and spend the rest of our lives in peace, shall we? ”

"Lord Wang, don't ...... like this" Calamus pulled his hand away hard, but it was in vain, and the defense in her heart was also collapsing bit by bit, "Please remember your identity." ”

"Let's go, let's go now." Sun Qi's persistent voice, "Are you willing?" ”

The night fogged Calamus's eyes, and she choked speechlessly.

A woman's greatest gratification is that there is someone who is willing to give up everything and fly away with you, right?

For five years, she waited for this sentence for five years, but it came out of Sun Qi's mouth when it was impossible to go back.

She took Sun Qi's hand away stiffly: "I don't want to." ”

"Are you crying?"

I tried my best to hide: "No." ”

Sun Qi stretched out his hand on her cold cheek? "What is it?" ”

Her tone was like a pleading: "Lord Wang, don't force me." Walk...... Where can we go? No matter how big the world is, sometimes we can't do anything. ”

"Then you're going to die here? Be an in-waiting lady on the cusp? ”

Calamus shook her head lightly and choked: "I don't know, don't ask so much, go!" Don't suddenly appear in front of me again, go! ”

"Calamus ......"

She said seriously and resolutely: "I just want to see you live well." ”

"What about you? How are you going to keep yourself alive? ”

Calamus turned her back and kept using her hands? Tears: "I will live well." ”

She sped away alone.

She was afraid that if she went down any longer, she would really lose her last sanity. If that's the case, what awaits him and Sun Qi is death.

After the Lantern Festival, several princes were preparing to leave Beijing and return to their fiefdoms.

But this time, Sun Wen seemed to be very happy to keep them for a little longer, and invited a few brothers to the palace for a banquet every now and then, and then rewarded Yunyun. Even the silk and red ginseng that were to be given to the concubines were given to several princesses.

Calamus was surprised: "How could the top take the things of the Inner Servant Bureau and give them to a few princesses?" ”

Gu Lan said: "Just after the New Year, the tribute from all over the country has not yet been presented, so I have to transfer it from the Inner Service Bureau in an urgent way." ”

"Then why do you want to give a lot of rewards?"

Gu Lan shook his head: "The slaves and maids really don't know about the affairs of the court. ”

Calamus was afraid that there was something strange in it, so he said: "In this case, this palace will personally go to the Internal Affairs Office." ”

She went to the Internal Affairs Office with a small silver-veined stove, but it was also unsuccessful.

After thinking about it, she went to Chengqian Palace.

When Fu Rongbao saw her, he hurriedly stopped: "Niangniang, the emperor is discussing important matters with several princes, and it is inconvenient to see you now." ”

Seeing that the temple door was closed, Calamus asked, "What has happened recently?" Dispatch a large amount of tribute from the Inner Service Bureau for no reason? Did the emperor do it on purpose? ”

"Niangniang misunderstood, the emperor did have an urgent need to dispatch from the Internal Service Bureau."

"Urgent? What's urgent? ”

Fu Rongbao looked around and subconsciously lowered his voice: "The emperor has been busy with the affairs of the court these days, so don't bother him." ”

"Father-in-law Fu, what happened?"

"The affairs of the court, the mother and the slave should not ask too much."

Calamus frowned slightly, and looked at the palace door intently: "Then the palace doesn't ask." ”

In the main hall, Sun Wen and several brothers were standing, and he was patient and pleasant: "What I said last night, I don't know how you thought about it?" Now that the Turks are rampant, it is urgent for your brothers to mobilize their forces to pacify it. ”

Sun An, Sun Zheng, and Sun Qi looked at each other, but no one said anything first.

Seeing that none of them spoke, Sun Wen said leisurely: "Haven't you thought about it yet?" ”

"There is nothing the ministers can do."

"You guys!"

Sun Zheng said: "The emperor forgives me, the ministers have just been crowned kings for a long time, and their status is still unstable, if they send all their troops to deal with the Turks at one time, they are afraid that there will be chaos......

Sun Wen glanced at all of them: "How about if you are asked to transfer some of your troops separately, and then the imperial court appoints a general to go to sweep away the Turks?" ”
