051 The trio meet
Inside the Li Ho Temple.
I took off my mask and habitually put it on the table, and the palace people had already been sent away, leaving only me and Zheng Muxin on the bed.
I took two steps to the bed, stood not far away, and saluted her, "The slave maid pays a visit to the queen, and the emperor heard that the maid is sick, so he sent the slave maid to visit you." ”
Zheng Muxin's body was already weak, and he was recently infected with wind and cold, and he was sick in bed for a few days.
At this time, Zheng Muxin leaned on the bed, her waist-length long hair was only tied in a simple bun on the top of her head, and the rest of her hair was scattered at will, which made her face look like white paper, and her expression was gloomy without any brilliance.
Her eyes slowly rolled to look at me, and when she was about to speak, she coughed, and I immediately got up and brought her tea.
She took a sip of it, suppressed her cough, and stabilized her breath a little before saying, "You don't have to coax me, the emperor won't remember me." These few times, it's all your favor for me. ”
Her gaze turned slightly, landing on the ostentatious ghost king mask, and the corners of her mouth curled up into a sad smile.
"Don't think about it, it's important to take care of your body." I persuaded.
"Don't wear this thing in the future, come in generously if you want to come." She covered her mouth with her handkerchief and coughed again, her voice getting weaker and weaker.
"Mother, in the future, it will be fine." I smiled and said, "Don't look at this mask as scary, but with it, the emperor will only look at you, otherwise it will not be good for you to come to the slave and maid no matter how many times you come." ”
She smiled silently and bitterly: "The palace is like this, and it is difficult to protect your life, are those vanities still important?" ”
I only felt that it was not a taste in my heart, and I had no choice but to persuade: "Niangniang takes care of her body, and it will naturally be fine in the future." ”
She shook her head: "How can there be a future in this palace?" ”
I don't know how to persuade me, after all, those are superficial articles, and I can only watch.
I really feel sorry for this little girl, when I was as old as her, I was still celebrating Children's Day, where did I experience such warmth and coldness.
Look at the people around her? The husband is not like his husband, who forsakes her as a stalker; Father is not like father, he sees her as a tool to give birth to the flesh and blood of the emperor.
I'm afraid I won't be here again, yes, I'm going to turn on the turtle mode again. If you want to save it, you can't save it, you can't help it, so you can only avoid it, otherwise it will be in vain.
But before I do that, there are some things I have to say.
"Niangniang, no matter what others do, you must first cherish yourself, some things are too tired for you to carry by yourself, it is better to confide in your true heart, there are many things in this world that are helpless, and no one will persecute you."
Zheng Muxin is a smart girl with ice and snow, and she immediately heard the meaning of my words. I think after all, they are biological parents, if Prime Minister Zheng knew that his daughter was in a high position in the palace, but she was left out in the cold, he probably wouldn't force him to do anything.
But seeing that she shook her head slowly, she didn't seem to agree with my words, and there was a trace of self-deprecating bitter smile on her haggard face, and she said, "What do you want me to confide? Do you want me to say that all the emperors who come to my palace to spend the night are pretending to be eunuchs? ”
Her smile widened suddenly, but it was accompanied by tears in the corners of her eyes, and her expression at the moment was desperate and ironic, like the last begonia flower to wither in the wind and snow.
Yes, I overlooked the fact that she is not like me, I can be arrogant or servile.
And from the moment she was born, she was destined to be the brightest bud on the high branches, she was always noble and elegant, and she was always happy and carefree. Leave those flowers and trees a shadow that can only be looked up.
The room fell silent all of a sudden, and I stopped trying to persuade her, because I wasn't her and couldn't understand her life.
I had some insomnia this night, and I couldn't help but think about the mess that happened recently, Zheng Muxin didn't seem to sleep steadily, and I knew every cough she had.
In the blink of an eye, it was the night of the full moon, and sure enough, Xiao Du wanted to see me, and I knew that he must have wanted to ask how the drug was going.
I trotted along with Nanagumo, the whirring wind and my own heartbeat in my ears.
I hadn't slept well for a few days, tossing and turning in bed, pondering how to make up this lie.
Although when I dumped the pill on the roof that night, I had already made up my mind and stood in line. But I always feel that I owe it to the forces of the previous dynasty, after all, I occupy the body of other people's princesses, but I don't help others.
Thinking about the hatred of killing my father and mother, and the hatred of destroying the country, I only feel extremely headache......
According to the old rules, Qiyun stood guard outside, and I went into the rockery to find Xiao Du.
As my footsteps approached the middle of the mountains, I heard Xiao Du's low voice from nowhere, "The princess is here." ”
Obviously, this was not said to me, and it seems that there is someone else today, and I can't help but get nervous.
Soon, two people appeared in front of me, one was Xiao Du, and the other was an old woman.
The woman looked sixty years old, her sideburns were frost-white, and her face was wrinkled, but her body stood straight, especially her eyes, which were shrewd and sharp, and she was not a good stubble at first glance.
I guess this is Mrs. Tieli in Xiao Du's mouth, and I stepped forward to say hello: "Mrs. Tieli." ”
Although I am a princess, but thanks to this Mrs. Tieli who escaped from the bloody battlefield with the princess in her arms, the princess must have a lot of respect and gratitude for her, and I will not be wrong to respect a little.
"Why don't you call Grandmother Tieli?" Her voice was as dry and low as a man's.
Tieli grandmother?
It turned out that she was the grandmother of the princess! Then her identity should be the queen mother, how can she be called a lady?
On second thought, she may be the nurse of the previous emperor or something, so everything makes sense.
These thoughts flashed through my mind, and to her question, I replied, "How can I call your grandmother when I am wearing this garment?" It is not only an insult to you, but also an insult to our dynasty. ”
She let out an "um", as if in agreement.
After a few pleasantries, Mrs. Tie Li couldn't wait to get to the point and asked me, "How is that going on?" How many times did the dog emperor take the medicine? ”
I made a helpless look and sighed, "Not once." ”
Her eyes widened suddenly, her flabby eyes revealed a bit of fierceness, and she said strangely: "How is it possible, aren't you just serving by the Dog Emperor's side, it's hard to start?" ”
I nodded: "He cherishes his dog's life very much, and he is careful everywhere, I can't find a chance at all." ”
"You've been with him for two years, why would he keep using you if he doesn't trust you?" She kept staring into my eyes, as if trying to see through my eyeballs the structure of my brain and my thoughts.
"It's not that he doesn't trust me, he's defensive of everyone." I calmly looked at her and said lightly.
"Then you haven't thought of anything else......" she continued to ask.
"Mrs. Tieli." Xiao Du on the side suddenly interjected at this time, and he said to Tie Li: "It is already rare for the princess to be able to gain a firm foothold in the palace in the past two years, and we can imagine how much suffering she has suffered." But after all, she is now a slave to others, and it is inevitable that her behavior will be restricted, so why not give her a little more time. What do you think? ”
Tie Li thought for a moment, and then softened his tone to me: "I know that you have been wronged, and you can't help yourself, I shouldn't have put too much pressure on you, but you also have to be considerate of my heart, it is completely exhausted for the sake of my dynasty's plan." ”
Hearing this, I had no choice but to express my loyalty: "Mrs. Tieli doesn't need to explain, I naturally understand it in my heart, and please rest assured, I will do my best." ”
Although my words are fake, the performance is real, think about my resolute and forbearant expression, that song "Actor" is definitely for me.
Tie Li nodded: "Seeing you like this, I feel at ease, I believe that the emperor and the queen have spirits in the sky, and I will also feel gratified." ”
I nodded deeply, but there were countless hehes floating in my heart...... If the two of them really saw my style, I don't know how they would feel?
"Although the dog emperor is vigilant, he is addicted to women and can't extricate himself, I will teach you a way, you will find a way to mix the medicine into the lip grease of the women, and when the dog emperor is having fun, the medicine will also enter his stomach." Tie Li said.
After listening to it, I was a little dumbfounded, this trick is really poisonous. mixed the medicine into the lipstick of the beauties, and when Zhou Wei made love to them, he naturally swallowed it in his stomach.
Xiao Du was also full of praise after hearing this: "Wonderful, this trick is really exquisite." He turned to me again and said, "Princess, this way you don't have to do anything directly with the Dog Emperor, and if the situation changes, you can wash it off in time." ”
"Hmmm! Sure enough, it's a clever move! Mrs. Tieli is so wise. "I had to compliment me. But I really don't know, what excuse can I make for myself now?
Then they told me about the situation outside the palace, and it was summed up that their soldiers and horses were fully stocked, and only my main move was missing.
It's a pity that everything is ready, and I'm afraid the east wind won't be able to blow.
I didn't want to talk to them anymore, because I was under a lot of psychological pressure, so I said, "I can't wait too long here, lest others become suspicious and cause trouble." ”
"Hmm." Tie Li said: "You go first, if there is any emergency, I will convey it in the form of snacks." ”
"Wait a minute." At this time, Xiao Du called out to me.
I looked back at him, puzzled.
I saw her take off a sachet from her waist and hand it to me: "Look at the deep circles under the princess's eyes, it must be because she has not slept well these days, the herbs in this sachet have the effect of helping you sleep, and you put it next to the pillow when you fall asleep." ”
"Okay, I got it." I smiled and took it. But I couldn't help but complain in my heart, if it weren't for seeing you, how could I have insomnia?
However, it can be seen that compared with Tie Li's utilitarian heart, Xiao Du has a little sincere care for the princess.
