Chapter Ninety-Eight: Love and Hate Begin to Tour the South
The jade bottle was pinched warm in his hand, and Emperor Mingxuan went all the way back to the imperial study. Fang was still in a good mood, but now there is nothing left. Feng Xun is really getting more and more comfortable coming and going in this palace, and he actually sent medicine to Gu Liangyue. What does he want to prove? Does it prove that he can take care of Gu Liangyue better than himself?
I'm sorry, he really isn't a caring person, he can't care about Gu Liangyue so much, and he can't even go over at night. Compared to him, Feng Xun is much better. He is also a native of the rivers and lakes, and he has a common language with Liangyue, on the same road. Well, it's good in every way.
"Smack-"
The huge celadon vase on the wall was smashed by the emperor's punch, and the peony was startled, looking at the emperor's back, her face turned pale, and she whispered to the little palace maid on the side to get medicine and gauze.
Xuanyuan Zili regained his cold expression, and a pair of black eyes quietly looked at the jade bottle in his hand, standing in place. The back of his right hand was bleeding, but he didn't feel any pain at all.
The bottle was carved from fine white jade, the body was white and flawless, and the tentacles were gentle. The emperor squinted for a long time, then slowly pulled the stopper away.
A cold smell of fragrance wafted out. Inside the bottle were dozens of snow-white crystal pills, the size of a fingertip at the tail, which should be the so-called ice and snow pills. After looking for so long, I didn't expect to get it in this way, which is really ironic.
Thinking of Gu Liangyue's expression when he left, the emperor's heart sank, and he walked to the desk and sat down irritably.
"Your Majesty." Peony spoke softly, looked at the blood stains on the back of his hand, and said worriedly: "Let the slave help you medicate the wound first." ”
Xuanyuan Zili was silent, glanced at his hand, and said lightly: "It's not in the way." ”
Out of the way? It was clearly bleeding. Peony frowned, walked to the emperor's hand with a sigh, simply took it, directly raised the emperor's hand, cleaned up the broken porcelain, sprinkled the medicine, and bandaged it.
"If you're really annoyed, why can't you just talk to the concubine of the same month?" Peony wrapped it carefully, and said lightly: "The slave and maid look at the concubine, it's not that you can't get along with you, it's just... After all, when you go, your speech is a little stiffer. Even if someone administers medicine to the concubine, the slave thinks that your expression of dissatisfaction will not make the concubine unhappy, but what you express is the appearance of going for the queen. How to keep the confinement concubine from being sad? ”
The emperor was stunned, looked sideways at the peony, frowned, and said, "What I just said, what's wrong?" The Ice and Snow Pill is a thing that resolves cold poison, Gu Liangyue has never been poisoned by cold, I asked her why is it wrong? ”
At the mention of cold poison, Gu Liangyue's face changed, and she clearly knew about the cold poison in Situ Ning's body. Peony sighed, looked at Emperor Mingxuan's frowning and annoyed appearance, shook his head and said, "When people are jealous, it is easy to see things clearly. Even if Your Majesty is the Ninety-Five. You just said so much, it's nothing more than jealousy. But those words in the ears of the concubine had another meaning. This is how misunderstandings often arise. ”
The emperor kept a calm face and didn't say a word, only plugged the jade bottle in his hand and put it on the desk.
After calming down, he realized that something was wrong, Xuanyuan Zi pursed his lips, looked at the bottle and was silent for a while, before he said sullenly: "Then how to talk to her?" When she first came out, she seemed to be angry. ”
Peony thought that he would not speak again, but at first hearing this, she was a little surprised and a little funny. Looking at the emperor's still sulky side face, he thought about it and asked in a low voice: "This bottle of medicine, does Your Majesty really want to give it to the queen?" ”
Xuanyuan Zili was stunned for a moment, and looked down at the medicine bottle. This is the medicine that he has been looking for for more than ten years. If Situ Ning's cold poison can be solved because of this, he will have a lot less trouble, and he will be able to do more in the future... However, as Aunt Peony said, if he gave this to the queen, would Gu Liangyue hate him?
"Your Majesty." was hesitating, and saw Sixi's father-in-law hurriedly walking in, and whispered in the emperor's ear: "The person who went to Jianghuai has come back and brought back the secret letter that Andu Governor said, and in addition, Lord Dugu is rushing to the imperial study." ”
With a grim expression, the emperor put the jade bottle back into his sleeve and said in a straight voice: "Let people come in, and when Duguchen comes, let him come in directly." ”
"Yes."
When the peony saw this, she bowed and withdrew, and waited outside the door. After a while, I saw a few guards walk into the imperial study, and after a while, it was Lord Dugu.
Duguchen checked the clues outside for a few days, and finally came back today. His eyebrows were much more indifferent, less cynical than before, and a little more serious, holding a box and going in to face the saint.
Peony sighed, feeling some sympathy for the child sitting inside. The state affairs are not settled, the affairs are not over, the big and small things have not been broken, and it is still very early to live your own life.
"Master." Xingxing looked at Liangyue and wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know where to start. The emperor's words and deeds just now were so chilling, I thought I was here to care about my master, but I didn't want it to be... How sad should the master be?
Liang Yue sat on the edge of the bed, quietly looking in the direction of the window in a daze. Compared with the sadness of picking up the stars and the moon, her heart is quiet, and the waves are no longer rising.
All his previous expectations turned into delusions, and when he was not cared for, he would not take into account his feelings at all. Well, so why bother? Whatever he wanted, she gave, and then they didn't owe each other. When love is wrong, even if it is difficult to recover, you have to keep your last bit of dignity, don't you?
After thinking for a while, Liang Yue yawned, looked at Xingxing and said, "You can continue to go and guard outside the door, and I will continue to pretend to be sick and fall asleep." The emperor has also come to see me, which proves that I am sick, and no one in the palaces should come to disturb me again. In two days it will be clean. ”
Lan Yue frowned, glanced at her master deeply, was silent for a while, and asked, "Master, is there no problem with giving that medicine to Your Majesty?" ”
Liang Yue pursed her lips and sneered, "What's the problem?" It's a big deal that I'm ashamed of Feng Xun, and it's better than waiting for the Holy Will to personally ask me to send it to Kunning Palace. You don't have to think about it so much, just do your own thing. ”
The stars and the moon glanced at each other, nodded yes, and exited the inner hall.
In the next two days, no one really came to Jingyue Palace, only the Queen Mother asked people to pass on the word and said a few words of concern. The rest of the palace concubines didn't come to stir up trouble. Of course, Emperor Ming Xuan did not come again.
April 1 is the day of the patrol, and when the day is about to dawn, the people of the Jingyue Palace will get up and pack their things. The Holy Will allowed to bring two palace people with him, so Liang Yue instructed Sixi to take good care of the Jingyue Palace, and then took Xingxing and Lanyue to go together.
Because it was a private visit to Weifu, the emperor did not alarm the harem, and only ordered the queen mother to temporarily take charge of state affairs, Mo Zhiyuan and General Situ jointly assisted, and still claimed that the emperor was ill, did not go to the early dynasty, and only dealt with state affairs in the imperial study.
Xuanyuan Zili stood by the carriage, watching a white shadow in the distance gradually walk towards this side, with no expression on his face.
Liang Yue changed into a simple long skirt, and the hosta tied her hair, and the heroism of the past came back a little. The two girls behind them took the baggage, found the carriage that belonged to them, and carefully placed it.
"Concubines see the emperor." Liang Yue walked up to Emperor Mingxuan and didn't look at him, only bowed her head respectfully and saluted.
Xuanyuanzi's eyes sank, and he pursed his lips and looked at her for a while, before he said in a deep voice: "You don't need to call the emperor when you leave the palace, and you don't need to salute as soon as you meet." ”
Liang Yue looked at the ground and nodded, and then said, "So, master, which car should I sit in?" ”
Master? Xuanyuan Zili listened to it funny, squinted his eyes slightly and looked at Liang Yue for a long time, and said mockingly: "Are you trying to lose your temper with me?" ”
I haven't seen you for two days, and the anger hasn't disappeared yet, are women so stingy? Emperor Mingxuan gritted his teeth, but he didn't know how to tell her, so he could only stare at her lowered head.
"How can I lose my temper with you." Liang Yue smiled faintly and said, "You think too much." It's not too early, so let's leave early. If the master has no other instructions, then I will share a carriage with them. ”
With that, Liang Yue turned around and walked in the direction of picking the stars and the moon, never raising his eyes to look at the emperor.
Xuanyuan Zili was furious, subconsciously reached out and grabbed Liang Yue's wrist, and whispered, "Can't you talk to me properly?" You sit in one carriage with me, and you don't have to squeeze with them. ”
Liang Yue looked at his wrist, and with a force, he broke free. nodded and said, "I understand, the master will go up first, and I will go up too." ”
“……”
With his hands in the air, Xuanyuan Zili was annoyed, but a little helpless, and turned around and got into the largest carriage in the middle. Cool Moon followed. Sixi's father-in-law did not follow the emperor on his southern tour, so he stayed in the palace, but the emperor's secret guards were all dispatched to protect the emperor's safety all the way.
Liang Yue got into the carriage, sat far away from the emperor, and glanced out the window. Inadvertently, I saw an acquaintance.
Well, a very familiar person, still disgusted with her deep eyes, and her pretty face was full of anger.
It's Lian Jiao.
Qing Jue and Bai Yu were also dressed in ordinary attire, riding horses around the carriage. Lian Jiao looked at her for a while, then rode to the front with a cold snort.
Sixi's father-in-law inspected the convoy and gave a message to the emperor outside the carriage. After hearing this, the emperor said coldly and set off.
There were a total of three carriages, eight secret guards to escort them, and I didn't know who was sitting in the carriage in front, but there were several palace maids in the back, including picking stars and moons. A group of people quietly left the palace and slowly left the national capital.
The moment he left the palace gate, Xuanyuan Zili heard a relieved voice in the carriage, like a sigh, and seemed to be relaxed. He looked up at Gu Liangyue, who was still looking out the window, without the slightest intention of talking to him. The side face was as cold as frost, just like the previous Gu Liangyue.
"Are you hating me?" After hesitating for a while, Xuanyuan Zili finally spoke in a muffled voice and asked.
