200 Humiliation at the Canonization Ceremony (and Updates.)
was not aggrieved, but it made Hongli heartbroken. He knows a woman's heart best, the queen used the method of pulling Hongyan as a companion to prevent him from going to the Changchun Immortal Pavilion, he was angry not only that the queen did not give him a chance to explain, but also Hongyan's position, but in the end he was still angry and lost his temper with Hongyan, and sandwiched her between himself and the queen.
"No matter how much I say, these things can't be erased, no matter how much you say that you are not wronged, I will not believe it." Hongli finally stretched out his hand and hugged the person in his arms, "The Queen Mother used to always say why there are you in all right and wrong, but she doesn't know that it is not you in right and wrong, but you are the one who is hurt every time." But even if you are hurt, you are the only one who is willing to suffer the grievances silently for the sake of me and others. ”
"When the emperor spoke, the same thing suddenly became so popular." Hongyan smiled faintly, she didn't know what kind of appearance could make herself look unpretentious, she was really wronged, and she really didn't want people to think that she was wronged, and the matter was over. The queen intentionally or unintentionally showed the nobility of her middle palace and her unshakable relationship with her husband, and Hongyan was unwilling to admit her grievances to show her humility as a concubine, and she also had her pride and dignity in her heart.
At least, at this moment, the emperor is in front of her, hugging herself and saying intimate words, she would rather believe that every word is from the bottom of her heart, in such a distorted and helpless world, if she wants to enjoy love and protect her husband's heart, she can only encircle herself in a smaller world, she can only look at what she has, and don't expect those unattainable existences.
If the queen is confident, why should she show it, Hongyan will comfort herself like this.
It is precisely because the queen is not confident that she wants to confess to her, isn't it, if she is pitiful, the queen is even more so, since there is no difference between everyone, why bother with each other and force each other. And because of the gap in status, Hongyan is the one who will quit sooner or later, in this case, I don't know how long it will last, she is willing to continue to live in harmony with the queen, not to ask her to give her a little bit of the emperor's favor, but to grasp the affection that belongs to her own and is worthy of the queen's jealousy.
"It was rude for the concubine to leave the emperor that day, but at that time, the concubine didn't know what offensive words to say, so it was better to leave." Hongyan said, "Since the emperor is so considerate, then the things of that night are not accounted for, right?" ”
Hongli smiled bitterly: "How can I be willing to worry about you, I don't dare to recall my face at that time, fortunately, the sky is dark, we can't see each other clearly, I regret it too late, the dignified emperor will only come to bully you." Hongyan, let's not be angry, okay? ”
Hongyan fell softly into his chest, watching the boat get farther and farther away, with her thoughts about Concubine Shouqi and the hope in her heart, she believed that the concubine would definitely protect herself in the sky, Hongyan said softly: "Since the emperor believes that the concubine is wronged, can he promise the concubine one thing as compensation?" ”
Hongli was very pleased, and hurriedly asked: "You said, not only one thing, but ten things I also promised you." ”
Hongyan sat up, looked at him delicately, and said with a smile: "Every time the emperor sees what benefits he can use to send people, he is so happy, and he is not sincere at all. ”
The emperor was in a loss before, and was choked by the queen that day, and he bothered to coax her to please her in the past few days, although he was willing, but he inevitably felt tired and tired, and when Hongyan said this, he couldn't help but have a tiger face, and held her in his arms domineeringly, and said: "If I am cold and indifferent, you have another rhetoric, the left and right are my no, if you feel that you are relieved to say it, I listen, but I don't remember to hold grudges and say otherwise, I have time and opportunity to slowly get it back from you." ”
Feeling the emperor's hand wandering restlessly around her waist, Hongyan's heart was warm, but she didn't want to make anything happen in broad daylight, even if Pinghu Qiuyue was remote and quiet, if there was really anything outside, she would know sooner or later, at least the right and wrong of the pure concubine had just happened, and she hoped that she could be justified and happy with Hongli.
She struggled slightly, sat down, and said solemnly: "Since the emperor agreed, the concubine is not welcome." The concubine has been in the palace for many years, and Ama can see each other a few times when he is still on an errand in the Internal Affairs Office, but after he quit his errand and went home, he has never seen him again, and his mother has never seen him once. Your Majesty, at this year's Dragon Boat Festival, when the palace ladies and mothers call their families to meet, can the emperor allow the concubines to invite their fathers and mothers to come, and the concubines can only see and say a few words, even if it is half an hour and a quarter of an hour. ”
Hongli said distressedly: "I have always had the heart to arrange for you, but you Ama specially resigned from the errand of the Internal Affairs Office for you, and I know that they don't want to cause trouble for you. Now that you want to see it yourself, I am at ease, even if someone has a lot of mouth, you can rest assured that I am here. ”
Hongyan naturally believes what the emperor says, this is only the beginning of April, she is already looking forward to the Dragon Boat Festival coming soon, and the emperor mentioned to her the canonization ceremony of Xian Guifei, Chun Guifei, and Yu Fei, Hongli said: "You and the queen each mentioned one thing to me, you want to see your parents, and the queen wants me to make a fuss at the canonization ceremony of Xian Guifei." I don't want to give any more honor to Concubine Chun, but if it is only against her, there will definitely be controversy, but Concubine Xian and Concubine Yu are innocent, and they will be wronged for her. ”
If the emperor didn't say this kind of thing, he shouldn't be blushing, since he mentioned it, she asked: "What is the emperor going to do?" ”
Hongli told Hongyan his thoughts, and Hongyan listened: "The concubine thinks that Xian Guifei Niangniang will wish the emperor to arrange it like this, she is a really quiet person, she doesn't care about these at all, as for Concubine Yu, the concubine is not subject to this ceremony, it is already trouble-free, why doesn't the emperor remember." ”
"So, I'm misremembering, or you're smart." The emperor was relieved, his face looked better, and he decided to do it according to the queen's wishes, anyway, he himself held his breath in his heart, he couldn't govern the pure concubine, but for a long time in the future, she didn't want to be proud anymore. On the day of the silkworm, it was for his son's sake, and for the sake of his former feelings, he would give Su a little good face, but Concubine Chun trampled on these things under her feet, so he didn't have to care anymore.
By the end of April, the canonization ceremony of Xian Guifei, Chun Guifei and Yu Concubine was held in the Old Summer Palace, and the emperor originally appointed Fu Qing and Cha Lang A respectively to hold the festival as the canonization envoy of Xian Guifei and Chun Guifei, and went to their dormitory on the day of the canonization ceremony to announce the canonization, but Fu Qing suddenly fell ill the night before the canonization, and on the day of the canonization, Fu Heng, who had just returned from Shanxi, entered the palace and replaced the second brother for the Xian Guifei canonization ceremony.
When Concubine Xian saw that it was Fu Heng who came instead of Fu Qing, she couldn't say what she felt in her heart, she wanted to see Brother Fu Qing, but she didn't want Brother Fu Qing to come in person to correct her name as the emperor's woman, her expression was solemn throughout the whole process, she seemed solemn and noble, but she couldn't help but be a little more sluggish, but Fu Heng couldn't keep staring at Niangniang's face, he did things according to the rules, and he didn't care what mood Concubine Xian was in.
On the contrary, on the side of the pure concubine, the university scholar Cha Lang A is the main envoy, the left attendant Lang Mu and Lin of the Ministry of Rites are the deputy envoys, and the pure concubine is in the dormitory. But after the pure concubine received the decree and thanked her, she wore a luxurious and solemn court dress, asked Baoqin to take out the prepared rewards, and waited for the concubines of the sixth palace, the princess Fujin, and the women of the third rank or above to kowtow to congratulate her, but there was no one left and right.
Concubine Chun asked, "Did they go to Concubine Xian first?" ”
Baoqin only sent someone to ask, and after waiting for half an hour, he finally passed the word, saying that not only the princesses and concubines would not come, but even the concubines of the six palaces would not come.
Huqin trembled and replied: "The words from the front are that the emperor said that the noble concubine was crowned a noble concubine at the beginning of that year, and unlike those who were promoted from concubines to concubines, the former had a noble position, so they had to enjoy the kowtow of the princess Wang Fujin's minister. The promotion of concubines from concubines to concubines is different, and it is not appropriate to follow the ceremony of the first seal that is the concubine. ”
Concubine Chun looked at her in a daze, and the evil fire in her heart was blazing. The rules of the palace are handed down by the ancestors, and in the harem of the emperors of previous generations, which concubines were not promoted to the title step by step, how did they get to her, and the family law of the ancestors was not a problem. What the emperor meant by this was that she was not noble? Whether she thinks she is lowly as a Han person, or hates what she did. Does the emperor not hesitate to involve Xian Guifei and humiliate himself?
Although in the Forbidden City, most of the concubines went to Xianfu Palace to congratulate, but this is completely different from the meaning of kowtowing at today's canonization ceremony. Not only the concubines, but also the emperor's daughter, who didn't take anyone else seriously, she should have knelt in front of her.
Concubine Chun has been thinking about being aggrieved for so long, whether it is being secretly ridiculed by the Sixth Palace, or those ministers and wives who look down on her mother's family, and even more angry that there is no one in the eyes of the princess, she can raise her eyebrows today, but there is nothing, and she will once again become the laughing stock of everyone.
"Your Majesty, he's so ......ruthless" Concubine Chun got up, suddenly felt dizzy, sat down heavily, her chest turned over the river and the sea, a burst of nausea, the familiar discomfort made her tight, pinched her fingers and counted the days, her heart jumped suddenly, and she pushed the hug qin who came to support and said, "Doctor Xuan, hurry, go to Doctor Xuan." ”
Concubine Chun clutched her collar tightly, begging God to have mercy and give her a chance to get back a city, and she will take back all the faces that were trampled on today.
