Chapter 186: The Phoenix Comes to the World
In the next few days, the emperor rested in the imperial study and never returned to the Qianyuan Palace. Liang Yue looked at the weather that was gradually getting cooler, and didn't ask. The Qianyuan Palace and the Imperial Study are actually not far apart, but the two of them have never met again.
Every day, Peony just quietly waits for Liang Yue to live, let Xing Lanyue accompany her to play chess or go to see the koi in the small pool. But the smile on Liang Yue's face is still getting less and less day by day. She probably knew what Xuanyuan Zili was doing, but her heart slowly cooled down.
Situ Heyu led an army of 200,000 to return from the border, and he would arrive in the capital in about two months. The emperor made an order for Situ Heyu to stay near Shuixin City. But the army did not listen to the king's order, and still came to the capital.
So the emperor was justified and announced to the world in the name of rebellion, and the defenders from all over the country came to the king of Qin, the capital of the country. In particular, Emperor Mingxuan toured several cities all the way south, gathered nearly 10,000 soldiers and forbidden troops, and slowly advanced towards the national capital. Among them, the speed of the Sixth Prince's Xuanyuan Falling Rain and the Lingye City City Lord Nan Non-Return is the fastest, and they can arrive in five days.
"Aunt Peony, I want to go back to Jingyue Palace." Liang Yue looked at a leaf that suddenly fell outside the window, was silent for a while, and spoke.
Peony was startled, frowned slightly, and said, "Niangniang, why is this?" ”
What an honor it is to live in Qianyuan Palace, although Liangyue may not necessarily need it, but living here is much safer than outside. And if you move away suddenly, the emperor will definitely be annoyed, so why bother to make the emperor angry?
"Aunt Peony, you have always understood the emperor's mind best. Now like this, what does Your Majesty want to do, can't you see it? I moved out as he wanted. Liang Yue said lightly, got up and walked outside: "I don't have many things, you can let the stars and the moon collect it." I'll wait for them at the Pure Moon Palace. ”
"!" Peony was in a hurry and wanted to catch up, but Liang Yue disappeared in an instant. Picking the stars and the moon was coming to the main hall with a snack, and when he saw his master flashing out, he was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly grabbed the peony behind him and asked, "Auntie, what's wrong with the master?" ”
Peony said anxiously: "Don't ask yet, catch up with the moon, and I'll explain to you when I pick up the stars." ”
The two responded and went their separate ways. But where can Lanyue catch up with Liangyue, and when he walks out of Qianyuan Palace, he can't even see the shadow. The forbidden army at the door only pointed in the direction of the Jingyue Palace.
Did you go back to your own palace?
The emperor listened to Sixi's advice, paused, continued to put it aside, and said in a deep voice: "Concubine Yue wants to go back, then let her go back." Send two more forbidden troops to guard the Jingyue Palace. ”
Sixi listened in surprise, and couldn't help but look up at his master. Has the emperor thought about it? In the past, if Concubine Yue was like this, this master would definitely be annoyed, but now in his eyes, it was just a deep darkness, and his face was calm and calm.
"The minions obey." Sixi answered and slowly retreated.
Aunt Peony stood at the door of the imperial study, and when she saw Sixi coming out, she greeted her and asked, "What did Your Majesty say?" ”
Sixi sighed and said, "Your Majesty asked Concubine Yue to go back, and only send two more forbidden troops to Jingyue Palace." ”
Peony was stunned for a moment, and turned her head to look at the closed door of the temple. What happened to these two people suddenly, Liang Yue actually said that he couldn't do it.
"Let's go and deliver the decree first." Sixi didn't know why, he felt a little sorry for the emperor inside, but he couldn't say anything after all, he bent over towards Peony, and walked in the direction of Jingyue Palace.
After looking at the door of the temple for a long time, Peony took a deep breath and turned to leave.
The sudden change is not unreasonable. I thought that the emperor would just spoil Mu Concubine more, but now it seems that this is not the case, did Xuanyuan Zili take back all the favor on Liangyue's body? What kind of reason could he do it?
Peony was puzzled, thought about it, went back to Qianyuan Palace to pack up his things, and followed him to Jingyue Palace. At least she is still the most trusted aunt by the emperor's side, if the emperor can't protect Liang Yue, then she still has to take the queen mother's wishes to help Liang Yue.
…
"What's going on?" Xia Qingfeng looked at Liang Yue, who was sitting boredly in the imperial garden, and said strangely: "Why are you here alone?" ”
It's usually hard to let her out, but now it looks like she's much freer.
Liang Yue pursed her lips, looked at Xia Qingfeng and said, "Senior brother, you haven't been in the palace for too long, you don't know that the favor in the palace changes quickly, have I fallen out of favor?" ”
Looking at the slightly coquettish little girl in front of her, Xia Qingfeng couldn't help laughing, walked into the pavilion and looked at her and said, "How could you fall out of favor, Xuanyuan Zili's heart is very sincere, it's only been a few days, what happened?" ”
Is his heart sincere? Liang Yue thought about it, maybe it was, it was quite sincere to like it later. But his heart was bound to the point that it was no longer the same, power, responsibility, purpose. He had so much to accomplish. And himself, even if he is the love of his life, he doesn't know how many he is.
"In short, it's just falling out of favor, senior brother, don't ask again." Liang Yue changed the topic, looking at Xia Qingfeng's official uniform, the purple robe was embroidered with the three-grade bird and beast pattern, it seemed that he had been promoted. "Why did you come to the palace today?"
Xia Qingfeng looked at Liang Yue and there was no too much sadness between his eyebrows, so he didn't ask too much, just said: "The Sixth Department has reappointed Shangshu, and the emperor ordered me to serve as the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and today I am going to enter the palace to discuss something." ”
Liang Yue nodded, said congratulations, and then said suspiciously: "Since you want to discuss things, why did you come to the Imperial Garden?" ”
Xia Qingfeng stiffened slightly, coughed dryly, and said, "The palace maid who led the way only took me around here and left, and I turned around by myself and turned here." ”
Is it because you are lost? Liang Yue burst out laughing, got up and said, "I'll take you there, if you delay things, the emperor should blame you." ”
Xia Qingfeng nodded, looked Liang Yue up and down, and said, "Are you okay?" ”
"What could I have asked for?" Liang Yue said as she led him to the imperial study: "It's hard to be free, they don't care about me so much, I think it's just right." The waist is also quite light, and if you don't move much, you won't be able to move until your belly is big. ”
The imperial study is not far from the imperial garden, but it is in two directions, and he must have gone in the wrong direction at the gate of the palace just now. Liang Yue shook her head and said, "Senior brother, if you are willing to enter the imperial court, there must be some purpose?" Now that the Apocalypse is in turmoil, it's great that you can do your part. ”
Xia Qingfeng smiled slightly and said, "I originally went to Beijing to have a look with the idea of having an identity when I came to the capital to investigate the case, but who knew that I saw you halfway." So I plan to do it seriously, so I want to go into the palace to see you. ”
Liang Yue was stunned for a moment, and then smiled very happily: "I haven't seen you for many years, and I have never met you walking on the rivers and lakes, the last time I went back to Mingyue Valley, you and the second senior brother were not alone, so I was lost for a long time." ”
Xia Qingfeng nodded and said, "I have only been back once in so many years since I came out of the mountain, and it was your tenth birthday. Not to mention the second junior brother, the person who likes to wander the world doesn't know where to go now. ”
"If we have time, let's go back and worship Master together." Liang Yue sighed and muttered, "I now know why Master was so kind to me during his lifetime, and I also know who the person he has in mind is. Right now... It's all over, and it's better to go back and visit his old man once. ”
"Hmm." Xia Qingfeng responded and said with a smile: "When we find the second junior brother, we will go back together." ”
"Okay." Liang Yue stopped, looked at the imperial study in front of her, and said, "It's in front, you go, I'll go back." ”
"Be careful yourself." Xia Qingfeng stood in place, watching Liang Yue turn around and leave, and it wasn't until the father-in-law next to him urged him that he walked into the imperial study.
Liang Yue walked alone for a while, always feeling panicked, and before she knew it, she actually walked to the bedroom of Princess He'an. But Yong'an Palace is also empty now, Cining Palace, Kunning Palace, are all empty. It seems that everything has become boring, and the partial life still has to continue.
"Concubines, see Yue Guifei Niangniang." A voice sounded behind her, and Liang Yue turned around, only to see that it was Mu Concubine and her personal palace maid who were saluting her. I haven't seen him for a few days, this person is still polite and obedient, the expression on his face is not ostentatious or flattering, only looking at Liangyue a little deeply.
"Concubine Mu is exempt, this palace is just walking around at will, and I can even meet you, it is really fate." Liang Yue put on a decent smile and said lightly.
Seeing that there was no one behind Liang Yue, Mu Concubine also waved away the people behind her, and laughed in a low voice: "Can the concubine take a step to speak?" ”
Liang Yue raised her eyebrows, nodded with interest, and followed Concubine Mu to the side of the palace wall. She doesn't know the details of Concubine Mu now, but there is no hostility in this person, and she doesn't reject it.
"I heard that in a few days, a few more young ladies will enter the palace. Do you know? Mu Concubine always had a respectful look on her face, looked at Liang Yue and said, "Undoubtedly, those people are the same as concubines, and the maiden family behind them will be Your Majesty's help." The Situ family has rebelled, and it is only a matter of time before the palace is forced. If the emperor wants to be sure enough to win, he will definitely fill the harem. Although the grace of the mother is rich, it may not be able to monopolize the grace for a long time. ”
Liang Yue looked at her quietly and chuckled, "So what? ”
Mu Concubine pinched the handkerchief, looked at the woman in front of her who had a beautiful appearance, but had a faint cold aura around her, shook her head and said: "Niangniang is currently in charge of the six palaces, and her identity is a first-class honor. If you don't go further to the throne of the queen and completely control the harem, then your fate and the fate of the child in your womb will be difficult to say in the future. ”
"The concubine has no other meaning, but the last time I asked to see the emperor in the imperial study, I felt that the emperor liked the mother very much, as long as the mother was willing, the queen's position was originally in the bag."
