Chapter 170: Emotions are confusing, and people don't know
Concubine Shu was startled, and then came back to her senses. She was unconsciously bewitched by the emperor, so she let him go to the bedside. It's too late to stop it at this time.
"The Emperor... Emperor. Concubine Shu muttered, but saw Emperor Mingxuan's cold gaze looking over, and asked her lightly: "Didn't Concubine Ai hear what she said just now?" Let's go down. β
A layer of cold sweat broke out on her back, Concubine Shu closed her eyes, gritted her teeth and saluted: "The concubine retires." β
It couldn't be helped, she did her best. Concubine Liang's nonsense can't even affect her, and now if she wants to escape, she should hurry to Kunning Palace to report to the queen.
Xuanyuan Zili sat on the edge of Concubine Liang's bed, looking at the person who kept babbling, his face was calm.
"... Spare your life..."Concubine Liang suddenly stretched out her hand, grabbed the emperor's arm, and gasped: "The concubine did it... Done... There's a ghost... The concubines are afraid..."
Niangniang, in this harem, who else can be called Niangniang by Concubine Liang? Xuanyuan Zili sank in his heart and looked at Concubine Liang quietly. In the past, he didn't have much fortification against Situ Ning, firstly, because she didn't know martial arts and didn't pose much of a threat. The second reason is that she has always been very gentle and gentle, and when the secret guard reports, she always said that there was no change in Kunning Palace.
But now it seems that his queen still does a lot of things behind his back.
"Burned... Burned them... The Queen... The concubine is afraid..."Concubine Liang had cold sweat on her forehead, and suddenly opened her eyes, her unfocused eyes looked at the top account, and muttered: "They came to me to ask for their lives... It's coming..."
Xuanyuan Zili said softly: "Who wants to ask you for your life?" β
"Mu Guifei's palace maid... They know so much... It's comingβ" Concubine Liang screamed, got up suddenly, and ran out frantically. Xuanyuan Zili held her down and said coldly, "Did you kill them?" β
"No, it's not me!" Concubine Liang shook her head in horror, sat down on the bed, closed her eyes again, and said repeatedly: "It's not me, I'm at the mercy of others, I didn't do it myself, and I'm not the mastermind, why are you looking for me, it's not me..."
"Whose orders did you listen to?" Knowing the answer in his heart, Emperor Ming Xuan still asked coldly.
Concubine Liang sat in a daze for a long time, opened her eyes and looked at the emperor in front of her, and tears suddenly fell: "The concubine can't help it, she can't help it... Your Majesty, save your concubines, the queen will kill me, she will..."
"Concubine Liang." The emperor sank his voice, looked at the person in front of him tightly with his eyes, and said seriously: "Being the mother of the country is not something that can be slandered at will. Are you now so frightened that you're delirious and full of nonsense? β
"It's not!" Concubine Liang eagerly pulled the emperor's sleeve, shook her head and said, "The concubine is not delirious, the concubine is not." β
The emperor hooked the corners of his lips and nodded: "That's the best, if you calm down, I can keep you from dying." As long as you stay obediently, don't go anywhere during this time, and don't see anyone. β
After that, he turned his head and called Bai Yu.
Bai Yu came in from outside the door, knelt down in front of the emperor, and waited for orders.
"You and Duguchen guard the concubine together, don't make any mistakes." Xuanyuan Zili instructed: "Everything is about saving the life of the good concubine, understand?" β
"My subordinates understand." Bai Yu responded and quietly retreated to the side to guard. The emperor comforted Concubine Liang for a while, let her slowly calm down, and then walked out of the Yongshou Palace.
In this way, is the main messenger of rumors in the palace also the queen? Emperor Mingxuan sneered, a little chilled. Situ Ning always behaved so that he mistakenly thought that she was different from her father, and almost thought that she would not hurt him. It was really a big mistake of my own. The queen's words are still in my ears:
"People's hearts are separated from their bellies, even if it seems that she is also obsessed with you, you may not have a different heart one day."
It's not so much that this sentence is about Gu Liangyue, but that the queen is talking about herself.
β¦
Feng Xun lived in the palace, and his actions became more convenient. The emperor announced that he was a master who was personally invited into the palace by the emperor, and that he had a life-saving grace for the emperor and lived in the palace for a period of time. The palace people looked at this beautiful man and were amazed, and their attitude was also respectful. Even because of the lack of his eyes, many palace maids were very considerate to him, and the things around Feng Xun were very peaceful and beautiful, and no one played tricks on him, they all regretted that such a natural man had no eyes.
"Why do I think you're better than me in this palace?" Liang Yue sullenly looked at Feng Xun who was drinking tea in the main hall of the Pure Moon Palace, and pouted.
Feng Xun smiled, looked in the direction of Liang Yue, and said gently: "It's not strange, but because I'm a man, I don't have a conflict of interest with them." If I were a woman, I would be in a much more difficult situation than you. β
Is this a consolation? Liang Yue snorted and continued to look around boredly. Feng Xun came over at noon, she was bored, he accompanied the boredom, the two sat far away, and occasionally said a few words.
"Mother." Xingxing walked in, and said with a not very good-looking face: "The emperor is going to the Splendid Palace tonight." β
"Hmm." Liang Yue nodded, signaling that she had heard, and then continued to sit still.
Feng Xun asked amusedly: "Why is your reaction getting calmer and calmer?" β
At first, the emperor was fortunate to others, and this girl would be sad and sad, but now she is completely accustomed to it. Are you used to it?
"I'm resigned to my fate." Liang Yue said lightly: "What can't be stopped and can't be changed, why should I bother about it anymore, just don't think about it." β
Feng Xun was stunned, and then laughed. Forcing herself not to think about it, Gu Liangyue still likes to avoid things that make her sad as always.
The two of them sat quietly, the door was open, and the sky outside was gradually getting dusk. Although we sat silently, we were not so lonely in the end.
β¦
In the evening, after Xuanyuan Zili finished correcting the excerpts, he drove to the Splendid Palace. Concubine Shu was waiting outside the palace, dressed in a light red palace dress that made her skin snow-white and her face like a peach blossom.
"The concubines greet the emperor."
The emperor got off the dragon chariot and answered: "Get up, the ground is cold." β
Concubine Shu's heart was hot, and she glanced up at Emperor Ming Xuan. His expression was soft, and he even smiled at her slightly, as if he had returned to the time when he was in the palace, a gentleman was like a jade, and his eyes praised her with joy: "He is bold and direct, he really does not dishonor his father's name, Xuan'er, you don't have to be too disciplined, just be yourself." β
Her eyes were wet unconsciously, and Concubine Shu lowered her head and got up, and followed the emperor into the main hall.
"Sister Liangfei, are you okay?"
Entering the inner room and sitting on the edge of the bed, Concubine Shu wiped her tears and asked the emperor with a faint smile.
"Hmm." Xuanyuan Zili nodded and said: "Concubine Liang was just frightened, looking at me, she regained her consciousness again, and she didn't talk nonsense." I thought, maybe the dragon qi suppressed the demon, so I let her rest for a long time, and then talk about it when she recovers her spirit. β
Concubine Shu breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "The emperor has a dragon qi to protect his body, and the demons naturally dare not approach. I hope Sister Liangfei can get better soon. β
The emperor nodded, let Concubine Shu take off her robe for herself, and lay down on the bed. Closing his eyes, he rubbed his eyebrows tiredly: "Recently, the palace has not been peaceful, and there are many things in the previous dynasty, I have snubbed you, do you blame me?" β
Concubine Shu's eyes were red again, and she snuggled up to the emperor's chest obediently, and choked up: "It's no wonder that the concubine is so tired, and the concubine is distressed when she looks at it." I only hope that the matter will pass sooner, although it is an extravagant hope, the concubines also hope to serve the emperor as before. β
Xuanyuan Zili opened his eyes slightly, looked at Concubine Shu and said, "Was it like that before?" Yes, I remembered that Xuan'er in the past was very bold and dared to do anything, but now it seems that she is much more cautious. Especially in recent days, it seems that you are afraid of something? β
The hand holding the quilt tightened, and Concubine Shu's lips moved slightly, but she didn't say anything after all, she just chuckled: "I can't help myself in the palace wall, the concubine... I'm slowly sensible. β
He couldn't help himself, this word he heard two people say today. Emperor Mingxuan turned sideways, took Concubine Shu in his arms, and said in a low voice: "Where did you come from so many bodies that can't help yourself, you are my concubine, only I can control your mood." Xuan'er, you have to remember that others are not your God, I am. β
Concubine Shu's body shook, and she subconsciously looked up to look at Emperor Ming Xuan, but crashed into his deep eyes. His chest was still as warm as ever, and his eyes were as intoxicating as ever. But... Everything is different now. There was more Gu Liangyue in his heart, and there was also more Queen Situ Ning in front of her. Her power is not as good as the queen, and her status in the emperor's heart is not as good as Gu Liangyue, what can she do...
"What are you afraid of?" The emperor's voice sounded softly in her ears, and Concubine Shu shook her head: "The concubine is not afraid. β
"I'm not afraid, so why do I still tremble in my arms?" Xuanyuan Zili raised his hand and put it on Concubine Shu's shoulder, and said in a hoarse voice: "Is it Xuan'er, you don't like me as much as before?" β
"I didn't!" Concubine Shu hurriedly said: "Xuan'er will always like Your Majesty, just like the beginning, it will not change!" β
Xuanyuan Zili frowned suspiciously: "Then why do I always feel that you have become more and more different from you recently, like a drama person who has been manipulated, so boring." β
Concubine Shu was startled, grabbed the hem of the emperor's clothes, and looked up at him in a daze.
A manipulated actor? Your Majesty, he... Got it?
The night was lonely, and the palace people guarding outside the Splendid Palace were happy, but the palace was quiet.
Emperor Mingxuan rested in the Splendid Palace for two nights in a row, and everyone thought that Concubine Shu's former grace had returned. At present, the queen is living deeply, the concubine is sick, and the two powerful masters in the palace are only Concubine Shu and Concubine Yue. It is said that Concubine Yue is the emperor's sweetheart, but in the past two days, the saint has not gone over to take a look, and the palace people can't help but wonder, is Concubine Yue Niangniang falling out of favor?
However, the strange thing is that the favored concubine doesn't look very good, and the concubine who has fallen out of favor is... It's like living a pretty comfortable life.
