Chapter Forty-Eight: Return to Beijing
Emperor Tianwei walked hurriedly to the front hall in a gaffe, and above the mourning hall, Concubine Mei was wearing plain clothes, prostrate on the ground, crying extremely sadly.
Duchess Zhongjinguo also stayed with her, crying fiercely.
"Brother, my sister is late to come back, I can't see my brother again, my sister is sorry for my brother......"
"Brother, my sister is wrong, my sister is wrong......"
Duchess Zhongjinguo pulled up Concubine Mei and comforted: "Niangniang, don't cry anymore, be careful of hurting your body......"
"Brother, sister misses you, sister misses Saburo...... Do you know how my sister has spent all these years...... My sister thinks about you every day......"
Concubine Mei cried one after another, and each sound fell into Emperor Tianwei's eardrums. Emperor Tianwei's eyes were slightly damp, especially Concubine Mei's voice of thinking about Sanlang, which tore apart the strength in Emperor Tianwei's heart.
"Xian'er......" Emperor Tianwei said softly, and there was an irrepressible tremor in his tone.
Concubine Mei turned back in surprise, and when she saw Emperor Tianwei, she couldn't help but be shocked, and then, regardless of everyone's eyes, she got up and ran and threw herself into Emperor Tianwei's arms.
"Saburo ......"
The two hugged each other tightly, such a hug is a reunion after a long time, a joy after a reunion, and a reasonable move when they are happy, no one feels that such a hug is embarrassing.
On the contrary, everyone is lamenting this reunion after parting.
Concubine Mei is infused with deep affection, and Emperor Tianwei is even more affectionate. Everyone wiped their tears and watched this beautiful scene.
"San Lang, I thought I would never see you again in my life." Concubine Mei wept and spoke. "San Lang, Xian'er misses you."
Emperor Tianwei took Concubine Mei's hand and whispered: "It's been fifteen years, I finally see you again, go, go with me, let's talk to each other ......"
Emperor Tianwei took Concubine Mei's hand and walked towards the backyard. Except for a few people who were waiting for the holy driver, everyone else consciously stayed in front of the mourning hall.
Su Zimo looked at Concubine Mei's figure thoughtfully. King Qing had a serious face, and there was no other expression.
The king of Qing led the forbidden army and surrounded the backyard. The Holy Driver is here, and he must be careful. Please say that since the Qing King took over the forbidden army for the past two days, the Qing King seems to have suddenly become serious.
Princess Xin wiped her tears and leaned closer to Dugu Dieyi's side. "Sister Dugu, they all say that the father and Mei Niangniang have a deep relationship, and when I saw this scene today, it was really so. I'm afraid that any lady in the palace is not as gorgeous as Concubine Mei's mother. ”
Princess Shin is telling the truth. Concubine Mei's beauty has long been no secret, and her relationship with Emperor Tianwei has long been a beautiful conversation. It's just that Concubine Mei was young and full of vigor back then, so she couldn't accept the flaws in her relationship.
Now, Concubine Mei is back, and coming back means making a comeback.
There are some things that are not the same when compared fifteen years ago to fifteen years later.
"Concubine Mei treats the emperor sincerely, and this feeling is really moving." Dugu Dieyi deliberately wiped the corners of her eyes.
Princess Xin answered: "My father is so happy, there are so many women who love my father......"
Hearing Princess Xin's words, Dugu Dieyi wanted to laugh a little, is that so? Although there are countless women in the palace, but those who can really love Emperor Tianwei, I'm afraid I can't find a few, those women, which one is not loved to please Emperor Tianwei? Is their love pure? Who can be like Concubine Mei, in order to maintain this love, willing to clear the lantern ancient Buddha for fifteen years?
On the mourning hall, the Duchess of Zhongjinguo exclaimed: "Blood? How can there be blood? ”
Everyone followed her eyes, and sure enough, where Concubine Mei knelt just now, there was a cloud of blood.
"Mei Jin, what the hell is going on? You've been with your mother, when did you get hurt? Duchess Zhongjinguo questioned.
Mei Jiao, the old slave who was waiting beside Concubine Mei, said sadly: "As soon as Concubine Mei got the emperor's order, she immediately set off to return to Beijing, but a killer appeared on the road and almost took Concubine Mei's life." Concubine Mei led the slave maid, and after several setbacks, she got into the carriage of the merchant to deliver the goods, and then escaped the catastrophe......"
"Because of the hurry, Niangniang's injury flare-up, and it has been three days in a row, and the bleeding does not stop......"
Mei Yao glanced at everyone, lowered her head, and began to cry.
This slave maid named Mei Jia is more than forty years old. She is a slave born in the Mei family. Since Concubine Mei was still in the boudoir, she has been waiting by Concubine Mei's side. Later, Concubine Mei entered the palace, and she also married into the palace, and later, Concubine Mei went to Guhan Temple, and she still accompanied her all the way.
Listening to Mei Jin's words, the guests couldn't help but discuss.
"Who will send someone to kill Concubine Mei......"
"Concubine Mei was ordered to return to Beijing, what about the escort on the road? And where did it go? ”
Su Zimo's fists were clenched together. "Someone, please ask for a doctor. After a while, please ask your father to treat your mother's injuries first. ”
Princess Xin pulled Dugu Dieyi over: "Sister Dugu, here is the mourning hall and blood, I'm afraid." Why don't we go out for a walk? ”
"It's fine." Dugu Die replied: "It's just that we are going like this, and when the emperor returns to the palace in a while, he will inevitably be in a hurry to find us, so we will find the prince and report it." ”
Speaking of King Qing, King Qing also arrived, and he said to Dugu Dieyi: "Princess Xixia and Sister Xin just go, I will send a few guards of the forbidden army to protect your safety." ”
"Brother Qing, it's not good, our daughter's family is going to go to the fat powder shop and follow a few guards, what kind of words is that......" Princess Xin refused directly.
"Xin'er, don't be willful. You are princesses, and your status is precious. If it causes trouble and hurts you, Brother Qing will not be able to eat and walk around. King Qing expressed his embarrassment.
"Princess Xin, let's let King Qing's people follow. In this way, let those guards follow from a distance, and we will not delay our visit to the fat powder shop. Dugu Die found a thoughtful solution.
Princess Xin nodded, and after a while, Dugu Die led Yushu, and Princess Xin took two accompanying girls, accompanied by four people, out of the gate of the Guogong Mansion.
Su Zimo's eyes were only taken back after he went out with Dugu Dieyi.
King Qing came to Su Zimo's side and said: "Fifth brother, Concubine Mei has returned to Beijing, and the safety of the Guogong Mansion will be more important in the future. ”
Su Zimo squeezed out a smile: "The fourth brother has thought it through, in the future, the safety of his mother and younger brother will be completely handed over to the fourth brother." I'm afraid the fourth brother will have to worry a lot. ”
