633 I didn't have a choice (and updates.)
Walking to Ningshou Palace, every step evokes the memories of the year, when I went back to Changchun Palace to get something, I was pushed to the ground and kicked by Hejing, and when I came to Ningshou Palace, the Queen Mother threatened to kill her, how long did it take, she was criticized for seducing the emperor, and she was pointed at everywhere, how long did that last?
Soon arrived in front of the gate of Ningshou Palace, when Cherry helped the master up the steps, he couldn't help but say, "Niangniang, is it really okay?" ”
Hongyan smiled slightly: "What could have been avoided a long time ago, I watched her happen, you said that something would happen to me, don't worry." ”
Mama Hua stood outside the palace gate, and when she saw Hongyan coming, she sighed lightly, and first said: "Yong'er is now in her own room, a little stupid, she can only cry, and she can't say anything when she asks her." ”
Hongyan was silent, slowly entered the door, and saw that the Queen Mother was sitting in a precarious position with a very good complexion, and the old lady seemed to be very happy, as if she had done another great thing, and watched Hongyan walk in like a show of power.
They have been entangled endlessly for a lifetime, and Hongyan has repeatedly warned the Queen Mother not to meddle in the affairs of the harem again, but now she will not say those words anymore.
"It's a fuss every time, and it's still like this after so many years." The Queen Mother smiled coldly and said, "The queen is in a trance for the loss of a palace maid, and it is useless to ask her anything, so I can only find you and put an end to this matter." ”
Hongyan bowed and said: "The concubine listens to the queen mother." ”
The Queen Mother sneered: "Didn't you stop me from interfering in the affairs of the Inner Palace?" ”
Hongyan raised her head and smiled gently: "Yes, the concubine will call the shots on her own." ”
When the Queen Mother saw Hongyan's appearance, Ben Shu's brows gradually distorted, and she asked coldly: "How to be the master, are you going to fulfill the emperor's wish and send Yong'er away?" ”
Hongyan said: "Naturally, I fulfilled your wish and left her behind, Yong'er is the palace maid by your side, more noble than ordinary people, it is not appropriate to only give the title of an official woman, it is more decent to agree or always be there." Yongxiang is deserted and unsuitable for living, stay with you for the time being, and when you arrange a place to live in the palace, you will pick her up. That's what the concubine thinks, what do you think? ”
The Queen Mother stared at Hongyan suspiciously, she almost couldn't remember what her purpose was in tossing these things, even if Hongyan showed an impatient look like the queen, she would have a trace of satisfaction, but what is going on, this Wei Hongyan has been hypocritical, she can even pretend that it doesn't matter, even this kind of poke her most painful place, expose her past unbearable things can be laughed at?
What the Queen Mother thought in her heart, she said unconsciously: "Why pretend to be so tired, the emperor doesn't like you to be frank and sincere the most, what's wrong with it now?" ”
Hongyan smiled: "The concubine is not tired, it is the honor of the concubine to share the worries of you and the emperor." ”
The Queen Mother secretly clenched her fists in her hands and asked, "Does this Yong'er matter remind you of anything?" ”
"Yes, the concubine remembered a lot of things, I remember that the queen mother was going to kill the concubine, if you also want to kill Yong'er at this moment, the concubine doesn't know what to do." Hongyan bowed and said, "The concubine thanked the queen mother for Yong'er's kindness, and the rest of the matter will be handed over to the concubine, the emperor is just a newcomer, and it is really not worth making a fuss." ”
The Queen Mother's joy disappeared completely, just as Hongyan said to He Jing, a fist hit the soft cotton, except for Yong'er successfully arrived at the emperor's side, none of the goals she wanted were achieved. "Don't leave yet, wait for the emperor to come, don't look back Hongli is going to say that we are in charge of our own affairs, I don't care what he thinks."
Hongyan said with a smile: "The concubine will arrange Yong'er's affairs first, the emperor will still have a while, and the people in the palace are also waiting to see the result, even in these two hours, it is enough for them to chew their tongues." Seeing that the Queen Mother was silent, Hongyan slowly retreated, and Mama Hua guided her to Yong'er's house. Pushing the door in, the poor little palace maid curled up on the bed wrapped in a quilt, and the same was true of Hongyan who was stuffed into Yongxiang back then, when Qianya went to visit her, she hugged Qianya and struggled to show her innocence, but Qianya couldn't help her, no one could help her at that time.
"Niangniang...... Yong'er had a slight hope in her eyes, and cried and said, "The slave doesn't know anything, the slave really doesn't know anything." ”
The poor man wanted to get close to Hongyan, but Cherry and Xiao Lingzi were worried about what she would do to the master, the two of them stopped in the middle like a wall, Yong'er looked up at all this hesitantly, and when she was desperate in her heart, Hongyan asked them to step back, walked to Yong'er's side, took out a silk handkerchief and handed it to her: "The matter has come to this, live a good life in the future, move to Jingren Palace, next to me, close to Ningshou Palace." In the future, you can often take care of the Queen Mother, the only difference is that your identity has changed somewhat, and you will no longer be a slave from now on. ”
Yong'er looked at Hongyan in confusion, she didn't seem to understand what was going on, and she seemed to understand everything, she suddenly grabbed Hongyan's hand, bluffing Cherry and wanted to come up to stop it, but Yong'er just said: "Niangniang, nothing happened to the slave and the emperor, just lay down all night, Niangniang, can you still be as ...... as before?"
Hongyan shook his head and said, "It's different from now on, you don't have a choice." She took the silk handkerchief and wiped away Yong'er's tears and said, "Back then, I didn't have a choice." ”
Soon after that, someone from the palace came to clean up for Yong'er, and Xiao Lingzi also went to the Internal Affairs Office to spread the word and opened Jingren Palace to clean it, and soon someone came to pick up Yong'er and sent her to Jingren Palace. At that time, Hongyan had already returned to the Queen Mother, Yong'er didn't think of going to thank her or ask for sin, and she went wherever the people of the Internal Affairs Office led her, and after bowing outside the Queen Mother's bedroom, she was respectfully led to Jingren Palace.
Four or five palace maids and eunuchs followed, Yong'er walked alone in the middle, and was about to arrive in front of the gate of Jingren Palace, and more than a dozen palace maids and grandmothers came in front of them with a child, Yong'er also recognized that this was the seventh princess of Ling Guifei, she instinctively stepped forward to salute, and someone on the side suddenly reminded coldly: "You are not a palace maid now." ”
Yong'er was stunned for a moment, but saw that the grandmother over there lowered her head and didn't know what to say to the princess, the seventh princess glanced at her a few times, then stepped forward and smiled, polite and gentle, very decent, but didn't say anything to Yong'er, turned around and pulled her grandmother and said, "I'm going to find E-niang, why hasn't E-niang come back yet." ”
The princess dragged her people and continued to go towards Ningshou Palace, Yong'er stayed in front of the palace gate, until the people around her urged her, and then hurriedly entered Jingren Palace, which has been uninhabited for a long time, and it is really a little deserted, but the palace where she will live has been cleaned clean, as if it had been arranged early in the morning, leaving the palace maids who take care of her, all kind and gentle, and her hesitant heart is somewhat peaceful.
In Ningshou Palace, Xiao Qi came to find her Eniang, Mama Hua greeted her and persuaded the princess to wait, Xiao Qi knew that Mama Hua was a good person, and asked without scruples: "Mama, is the imperial grandmother going to embarrass my Eniang again?" ”
Mama sighed in her heart, and said with a smile on her face: "It's nothing, Niangniang and the Queen Mother are waiting for the emperor to go to the court, and the slave will accompany you to the garden, and you will be able to see Eniang when you come back in a while." ”
And when Mama Hua was about to lead Xiao Qi away, news came from Qianqingmen, saying that the emperor had dispersed.
Mama's heart tightened, she felt that this matter was not easy to deal with, the queen mother deliberately made such a thing will inevitably anger the emperor, but the compromise of the noble concubine will definitely make the emperor angry. The reason why the emperor is unhappy is that he hates the queen mother for humiliating the concubine with such a thing, but she obediently accepts everything and takes the initiative to take care of it properly, where is the emperor's face to be placed, and what position should they stand on each other?
Mama sighed again, tried to smile, and led Xiao Qi to the garden of Ningshou Palace.
Half an hour later, the emperor slowly arrived at Ningshou Palace, the anger in the morning was instantaneous, after devoting himself to court affairs, the matter of this palace maid did not matter to him. More than twenty years ago, I was a little strong, but now I am not so impulsive, but when I wake up in the morning and see such a thing, I feel particularly disgusted.
Back then, he first fell in love with Hongyan, and wanted to hold it in the palm of his hand like a jewel, but he restrained it for the sake of the queen, but Hongyan was sent to his side and had a skin-to-skin kiss. At that time, when I opened my eyes and saw the loveless red face, it was completely different from seeing Yong'er today, he was just angry today, and Yong'er's life and death had nothing to do with him.
Hongyan and the Queen Mother have been getting along indifferently for a long time, neither of them spoke, the Queen Mother was unhappy, Hongyan was calm as water, all of this was what she had expected a long time ago, and she really couldn't make any waves. The only faint uneasiness in her heart was also contained by her, and no matter what, she shouldn't show it at this moment.
After Hongli entered the door, when he saw this scene, he said angrily: "That Yong'er, have you sent it away?" ”
The Queen Mother said with a smile: "Your concubine said that Yong'er is the person next to me, and she must be decent, and she has been sent to Jingren Palace, and she will live there in the future. ”
Hongli actually knew it a long time ago, but he asked one more question in vain, and when he heard the Queen Mother say that it was all Hongyan's idea, he looked at Hongyan angrily and asked, "You have decided?" ”
Hongyan got up and said, "If the emperor thinks it's inappropriate, the concubines can make other arrangements." ”
If he wasn't in front of the Queen Mother, they would have countless things to say, and now Hongli felt that it was not appropriate to say anything, and the only thing he could do was to give him face.
"Now that it's been decided, there's no need to do anything more, don't bother the emperor." The emperor said duplicitously, "That's it, nothing else, I will go back to the Heart Cultivation Hall first." ”
Hongyan lowered his eyes slightly, he didn't look at the emperor's face from beginning to end, and he could hear his impatience in that tone, he had already told himself repeatedly to let Mama Hua send Yong'er away, as if he was afraid that something like this would happen, but the person didn't send him away, and it still happened.
