Compared with the emperor's inquiry, Hongyan felt extremely shy, and the queen's sentence made her warm heart, but after all, she took the princess to do something wrong, and she felt guilty and regretful, and lowered her head and said: "The slave is fine, don't worry, tonight's incident was originally the slave and the maid were not careful." ”

The queen laughed: "You still know that you are wrong, if you are as stubborn as He Jing, you will be dragged out again and played again for twenty boards." ”

Hongyan couldn't tell whether he was joking or serious for a while, and was a little nervous, but the queen even ordered: "Go and rest, if there is anything to talk about tomorrow." ”

After all, the emperor was still in the house, and the queen went to the inner hall after saying this, and the other palace maids politely asked Hongyan to rest, and it would be good to have them with the emperor to take care of her. Hongyan thanked everyone and was about to leave, when she saw Manager Wu looking at herself in front of the door of the dormitory, she handed over a polite smile from afar, Hongyan bowed to signal, but she was not stupid, she always felt that Gonggong Wu had been more and more polite and kind to her recently, thinking about it, probably only because she was favored by the queen that everyone treated her differently.

On this side, the queen came in and wanted to talk about how to explain tonight's events to the queen mother and how to teach her daughter a lesson, but the slightly drunk emperor drank half a bowl of sobering soup and it didn't work, and lazily crooked under the window.

"What's wrong?" The queen had noticed the ambiguity in Hongli's breath, and said with a smile, "It's not too late to go to the pure concubine's house again this time, people are waiting." ”

But the emperor had already kissed her on the lips, wrapped one hand around the queen's body and carried her to his side, let her lie on the soft cushion, and couldn't help but reach out and untie the plate under his wife's neck. The fair skin was exposed, with a familiar fragrance that made him greedy, and the queen came all the way from Ningchun Hall, in the late summer and early autumn, there was a slight sweat on her body, which made her have some scruples in her heart, but in the eyes of the emperor, the skin became delicate and smooth, and he called "An Yi" stupidly, and fell into the clouds and rain.

In Qingyan, Kyushu, the pure concubine is wearing an ivory-white palace robe, the skirt placket is connected into a piece of ink and lotus, and her slender figure is standing in front of the door, which is more moving than the real lotus flower that blooms in her courtyard in midsummer. It's a pity that the wind at the end of summer, with a little salty and damp smell, when I returned from the west peak, I still felt that the night breeze was cool, but this time it became more and more annoying.

She knew in her heart that it was the person she wanted to see who didn't come, and she understood even more that it was not so much that the queen intercepted the emperor halfway, but with her understanding of the emperor, it should be the emperor himself who suddenly remembered the queen. But no matter what the reason, this kind of thing happened several times, and Concubine Chun didn't want to be ridiculed in vain, and because she had a quiet temperament, didn't she have the heart to argue with others?

Baoqin saw that the master had been standing for half an hour, and the emperor was destined not to come again, so he had to step forward and persuade: "It's late at night, the master rests." ”

Concubine Chun's body shook, and she said coldly: "The more anyone cares about him, the more he doesn't care about whose heart, I can't let go of it, no matter how he treats me, he can't change my heart to treat him, right?" ”

"Niangniang, the princess made such a fuss today, the queen is thoughtful in front of the queen mother, but I am afraid that the emperor is worried that the queen mother will be wronged, so I changed my mind and went to Changchun Immortal Pavilion." Baoqin had a little calmness of the master, and persuaded, "Tomorrow, the emperor will definitely come to compensate in person, which time is not sincere." ”

"If he doesn't come to-morrow, won't I be an outcast?" Concubine Chun felt a salty taste at the corners of her lips, it turned out that it was not the night wind and dampness, but the tears she shed.

"Niangniang's anger, these words don't count, I'm afraid that the queen doesn't want the emperor to be like that, from the West Second Institute to the palace to the Forbidden City, I'm afraid that if I don't believe in the emperor's truth, I also want to believe in the queen's mother." Baoqin's words seem to be said to outsiders, but from the bottom of her heart, people like her who have watched for so many years can see it more clearly than her own master.

"I thought he wouldn't come tomorrow, and I really didn't feel bad if he didn't come." Concubine Chun finally moved her body to go back, and left a sentence: "But if he comes, he will say that I am sick, lest I defile the holy car, and it is better not to see it." ”

As the night deepens, in the quiet Old Summer Palace, it seems that the liveliness of the Qixi family banquet has been forgotten, for fear of disturbing the sleep of the emperor's concubines, even the cicadas and frogs will be expelled.

At this time, Hongyan was sleeping soundly, frightened and physically and mentally exhausted, I thought I would have a sleepless night, but I didn't expect to fall asleep with a pillow, but in the dream, I accidentally turned over and pressed on the painful place, waking her up from the dream.

It happened that Qianya returned from work at night, and when she heard Hongyan crying out of pain, she lit an oil lamp to see, but it was a half-asleep person who was rubbing the beaten place, and with a bright light, Hongyan gradually woke up, and Qianya said: "I'll show you, it's good to rub some medicine and wine." ”

Hongyan whimpered: "It doesn't matter, it's only two hits." ”

Qianya churned to find the medicine and wine, and said: "The boards are all solid, I used to see people beaten, and people were stunned when they went down with a stick, and the three or four boards cried wolf, but after a few more beatings, there was no sound." If you really get twenty boards, if you still have breath, then the doctor should come to show you, and I won't be ashamed of you. ”

As he spoke, he had already found medicinal wine, put the oil lamp on the side of the bed, turned over Hongyan's body, and took off his obscene pants under her twisting and struggling, and sure enough, the fine skin and tender flesh could not withstand such a toss, and the skin was almost broken in the two blue places.

The cool medicinal wine suddenly spilled on the skin, Hongyan's body twitched, Qianya followed and kneaded the medicinal wine, and when someone touched such a private place, even if she was a good sister, she was so ashamed that Hongyan was hot. She whimpered, "If it's the Imperial Doctor, I'll die headlong." ”

Qianya slapped her face: "What nonsense is not dead." ”

Hongyan was so painful that she almost cried out, but suddenly felt wronged, covered in the pillow and cried, Qianya saw that she was really sad, and asked guiltily: "Is it painful, you can bear with it and knead it away." ”

It took a while for the sad person to calm down, Qianya put down the medicine and wine, went to wash her hands and change her clothes, and came back to lie down with Hongyan, and then heard her say: "Before entering the palace, Ama said that it would be good to be able to save her life in the palace, and after following the mother, she became more and more proud, and she seemed to forget this." Now that I think about it, I am very panicked, we are slaves and palace maids after all, even if the mother loves her again, I don't know where and where something went wrong one day, and she will die. ”

Qianya sighed: "If it weren't for you today, any palace maid and eunuch would be dragged out, and twenty boards would not be able to escape, and it would be okay to rest for a few days, and if you are weaker, you will be beaten to death." Although the masters are all good-natured, there are times when they are annoyed, and they lose their temper indiscriminately, and when they look back, they really find out who died because of this, and they forget it after a few days of sadness. That time you were tossed by Jia Concubine, I didn't dare to stand up and admit it, I just felt that no one would come to help me at a critical moment, and I didn't want to die yet. ”

Qianya said again: "Hongyan, let's be more careful in the future, you see that you will have an accident if you leave your mother, it is better not to leave an inch." ”

Hongyan agreed, Qianya turned over and said to herself: "You are really lucky, when you meet the people under Manager Wu who recognize you, it seems that we are better to show off, everyone remembers their faces, and anything in the future can be seen in the face of the queen." ”

The person who had been on duty in the middle of the night was already very tired, and he spoke sleepily, and Hongyan saw that her breath was becoming more and more stable, so he didn't want to quarrel with her anymore. And rubbing the medicinal wine on her body, she was much more comfortable, and she also turned over and closed her eyes to sleep, but she still remembered Qianya's muttering, thinking that Manager Wu saved herself today, and then thinking of what the emperor said to her in the dormitory, this time suddenly strange again, did the emperor save her, or did Gonggong Wu save her?

And Qianya also said that the last time Jia Concubine was powerful, she was afraid that no one would come to save her and she didn't dare to stand up, but Hongyan remembered that when she was pressed and almost desperate, she saw the emperor's figure. Some time ago, when the second elder brother was gone, she bumped into the emperor with a tea bowl in Changchun Palace, and was almost dragged down, but she was also spared because of the emperor's words.

"No wonder my grandmother said that I was a good life, and I had a noble person in my life." Hongyan muttered, her frightened heart became calmer and calmer, thinking about the encounters along the way after entering the palace, the good people she met and the good things she met far outweighed these grievances, and as the emperor said, at least in the future, she should not easily accompany the princess to mess around, and she could avoid many disasters.

After all, Hongyan's temperament is cheerful and optimistic, and the next morning she went to the queen, and she was already alive, but the queen was worried about her injury, and the princess came early in the morning to ask her to accompany her to the study, and dragged her on the way and said affectionately: "Next time I will save you before leaving, I was scared stupid last night, and you were beaten." Hongyan, don't hate me, I'm really afraid that you won't play with me in the future. ”

The dignified princess said such a thing, which made Hongyan frightened, but as she said to the emperor, don't just think that the princess is messing around, she likes the princess in her heart, and who would not like such a filial mother who is full of good children with her father's mother.

In the Qinzheng Palace, the emperor dispersed and returned to Shaojingxuan, and the chief manager Wu talked about the things sent to Concubine Chun, but the emperor asked him who would accompany He Jing to the study today, and when he heard that he was still red-faced, the emperor showed a reassuring look, and then ordered: "I have lunch and go to sit in Concubine Chun's room, and you go to pass the word." He took out the black bamboo folding fan made by the pure concubine, deliberately tore a hole in the fan surface, and then handed it to Mr. Wu, "Just say that my fan is broken, ask her to make another one." ”

But when Mr. Wu came to Kyushu Qingyan with a fan, he was closed.

Another concubine and a few nobles agreed to stand in front of the door to watch the scene, she sneered: "It's like this when you go back, and the people who do ice and snow should also be angry." After avoiding others, he said to Liyun, "I just don't know what immortals live in the Changchun Immortal Pavilion, could it be that there are more fairy daughters there?" ”
