Chapter 181: Is That So?
Chapter 181: Is That So?
Yang Li'er was quite calm, looking at Gu Lingge with waveless eyes, and the banter and calmness in the other party's eyes made her even more disgusted. A woman with an expressionless face, who can even be said to be boring, why does Qing Ruifan like her so much? Yang Li'er was not convinced.
In her opinion, Gu Lingge is a lowly embryo who snatches her husband, and her background is just low, but she still has self-confidence and the favor of the emperor's sister in the imperial history. Although Li Zhen and Wang Jingchen and others said that their methods were mediocre and rude, they had enough backers in the family to try their best to jump but they didn't take anything.
This Gu Lingge is strange, obviously she didn't do anything, she has a stinky face all day long, but she can make the emperor have blue eyes on her. He sacrificed a child and did not save Qing Ruifan, but Gu Lingge never seemed to have lost Qing Ruifan.
"Please also ask Niangniang to be clear, there is no relationship between the concubine and Liu Guiren, and there is no such thing as a dead heart, Niangniang Mingjian will definitely be able to return the concubine's innocence." In the past, queens didn't like concubines to get too close to each other, and women could say anything after being together for a long time, and most of the time these words were not good words.
In order to avoid rumors from spreading, and in order to let the previous queens worry less about snacks and not calculate on their heads, most of the concubines also kept their own manners. But Gu Lingge was too lazy, and he was indeed negligent in management, resulting in no one in charge of the harem. Since it is the biggest inconvenience, and I don't want to make the first bird myself, it is natural to be attached to the second largest.
Yang Li'er knows this better than anyone else, so she treats every concubine who comes to Chunlan Hall with courtesy, and establishes an image of a gentle and virtuous concubine, during this period, maybe someone admires her very much, but she doesn't know it at all. Just like now, if Gu Lingge didn't say that this nobleman's surname was Liu, Yang Li'er didn't even know why she came to this Fenglan Palace.
"Look at what Concubine Wan said, if the palace doesn't find out, will your innocence be gone? Or do you want to say that this palace is not a person of knowledge, and he can't do this thing as the master. Well? Gu Lingge gently turned the teacup with one hand, and tightened his scarf. The one Qing Ruifan picked today is a little too loose.
"Niangniang doesn't know, Concubine Wan has been talking about you all this time." Concubine Yuan, who almost never spoke, suddenly interjected. Gu Lingge glanced at Concubine Yuan playfully, and the latter gave her a faint smile. Shifted his gaze to look at Yang Li'er, who was also calm, his face was not even a little red, but he looked at Gu Lingge with a pair of big eyes with tears in his eyes, as if he was so wronged.
But Gu Lingge is not Qing Ruifan, and he will not feel distressed because of this look. Spoiled should be sprinkled to the right person, this is called coquettishness, otherwise it is called hypocrisy.
"Alright, let's get up first, it's cold on the ground." After Qing Ruifan ascended the throne, he paid more attention to living with the people, and Gu Lingge was not a drunken master, so most of the harem was still based on necessary things, and Gu Lingge would not approve too extravagant items and decorations, and the same was true in her own palace.
Gu Lingge was cold, but he only laid a carpet in the dormitory, and there was nothing in this main hall. There are some principles that cannot be broken. Since it is a rule, then stick to the iron order.
Liu Guiren may not have seen Gu Lingge much, and he was about to cry when he saw her serious expression at this time. Gu Lingge shook his head, noncommittal.
Gu Lingge wasn't a master who liked to chew words before, but now it's just a whim, and he doesn't feel very comfortable, so he wants to make a fuss. "How is Concubine Yuan today? Your place is more remote, you can go out and walk around more if you have nothing to do, and it is easy to get sick when you are bored alone. ”
Concubine Yuan nodded obediently, and Gu Lingge hooked the corners of her mouth, "It's good to understand." "Looking around at the people sitting below, Gu Lingge was just about to let them go back, and then he heard the blue clothes shouting outside;" The emperor arrived. Everyone hurriedly stood up, curtsied, and waited for Qing Ruifan's arrival.
Gu Lingge didn't want to stand up, she still had no strength now, although Lixia was close to her, she didn't want to force herself. She was confident enough that Qing Ruifan wouldn't really want to see her salute him.
Qing Ruifan did not walk in from the gate, but walked from the direction of the dormitory, the concubines had a calm face when they saw it, no one knew what they were thinking, but Gu Lingge was expressionless. This man may be accustomed to hugging each other from front to back, and there is a pair of shelves everywhere, which makes Gu Lingge a little trance. She thought that when she took Mu Er and them out before, others thought the same way.
"Ladies and gentlemen, let's get even. What are you looking at, your eyes are straight. The first half of the sentence was said in a loud voice, but the second half of the sentence was whispered in Gu Lingge's ear while sitting on a chair. Gu Lingge subconsciously moved his ears and coughed lightly, indicating that he didn't think about anything.
"What are you talking about?" Qing Ruifan seemed to be very interested, looking at the colorful faces of everyone below, he wanted to know.
A group of people were still chattering just now, but now they are like birds that have been shot by arrows, and they are stiff and speechless. Gu Lingge looked a little funny, but she didn't mean to explain. plainly makes people think that she is a wicked person who sues first.
"Liu Guiren said that Wan Guifei Niangniang tried her best to copy Buddhist scriptures and pray for the queen's mother, and she has been doing it all the time when her eyes are injured." In the end, it was Lixia who stepped forward. None of the ladies wanted to be this long-tongued woman, and after getting Qing Ruifan's eyes, she said 1510, "Then the queen mother joked that she wanted to thank Wan Guifei, and the concubine and Liu Guiren misinterpreted the meaning of the queen mother, thinking that the mother was going to punish them, so they knelt down and explained to the mother." Wan Guifei Niangniang said that the queen's words can return Wan Guifei Niangniang's innocence. ”
Hearing this, Qing Ruifan almost understood, but it was just that Gu Lingge couldn't find something to do and had some fun. The reason why he thinks this is because he finally understands Yang Li'er.
Yang Li'er is still a sleek person in nature, now she hasn't caught any tricks from Gu Lingge, and she won't have any disrespect for Gu Lingge, she values reputation very much, and she won't let Gu Lingge easily catch the loophole. Yang Li'er's thirst for power, Qing Ruifan saw it clearly from the day they entered the imperial city.
originally thought that an upright person like Yang Fan would cultivate a sister who really met her identity, but now it seems that she has lost her eyes. Everyone is equally obsessed with power, and they are all equally focused, the point is that their own ways of achieving it are different, which will also produce different effects, like Yang Li'er, which is a typical example of counterproduction.
"That Wan Guifei is really hard." Qing Ruifan's words are not salty or light, which also shows that this matter should be turned over here, and it will not benefit anyone to mention it again.
Concubine Yuan rarely saw Qing Ruifan, although she had imagined such a situation before, she still felt a little unbearable. On the southern Xinjiang side, all couples treat each other wholeheartedly, and all couples can be harmonious and beautiful, and raise eyebrows. Concubine Yuan knew that she couldn't get such happiness, but she didn't expect it to be so difficult. She remembered what that person said last night, and then looked at Qing Ruifan, and her heart suddenly throbbed.
Qing Ruifan noticed this gaze, but because those eyes were only full of reverence and loss, and there was no threat, he didn't think too much. Gu Lingge looked at the stalemate in the atmosphere, and he didn't bother to talk about the topic anymore, so he directly let them go back.
They walked for a while, and the messy smell of fat powder had not yet dissipated, Gu Lingge frowned, feeling very displeased. Qing Ruifan walked up to her gently, picked her up and walked outside.
Gu Lingge didn't react and asked him what he was going to do, Qing Ruifan smiled and said to eat. Gu Lingge estimated the time, it was almost noon now, and she really should eat something when she hadn't eaten breakfast. Qing Ruifan accompanied Gu Lingge to have a good meal, and then went to Ci'an Hall, while Gu Lingge went back to bed and continued to sleep. The numbness and stiffness on her body was no less than that of Liu Guiren at that time.
Purple Spirit Palace.
"You said that if this saintess did this, she would really be able to go back?" Concubine Yuan, or the Holy Maiden of Southern Xinjiang, looked at the man in black in front of her, with hesitation in her voice. A few days ago, a traveler from southern Xinjiang sent someone to follow her, saying that it was to protect her, but in fact he had been planning a big game of chess.
The Holy Maiden of Southern Xinjiang is not stupid, and she also knows who the Southern Xinjiang Traveler is. No one knew how rich the Southern Xinjiang Traveler was, and no one knew who he really was, everyone recognized his wooden fish mark, but no one had really seen him. However, Concubine Yuan has seen it.
When she set off to come to the imperial city, she passed by Mu Mansion and took a look at this person, so she knew better than anyone who this person was. At that time, she had threatened a traveler from southern Xinjiang to ask him to save her from the palace, and now she has come to the appointment, but she has always talked to her about the long term.
Concubine Yuan didn't really want to leave here, after all, the holy daughter who had already married people, even if she returned to southern Xinjiang, she might not be recognized by everyone, but she just didn't want to stay in this city wall surrounded by vermilion bricks. She felt suffocated and disgusted.
"Okay, you can just ask the traveler to bring things in, and I'll figure out the rest." Concubine Yuan looked at her hands silently. Once these hands turned over the most poisonous "Ten Thousand Gu Poison Book" in southern Xinjiang, but now they are wrapped in pastel armor, and they are ruined. She didn't want to go back, if she couldn't start all over again, at least she wasn't so.
But everything comes at a price.
Tzu Ann Church.
"The mourning family heard that the emperor didn't go to the court today?" The Queen Mother held a string of Buddhist beads in her hand, her slender hands clasped smooth rosewood one by one, and Duanxia was waiting on the side, her body was straight, and her expression was dignified.
"Yes, Erchen slept a little late yesterday, and today he called the blue clothes to rest for a day in the morning." Qing Ruifan did not fool the Queen Mother into saying that she was handling government affairs last night, and generously admitted that she did not go to court. One of the things that the Queen Mother is satisfied with about this son is that this son will not lie when facing herself.
"The mourning family heard that the emperor stayed at the queen's place last night?" It is easy for the Queen Mother to know this kind of thing, and Qing Ruifan also admits it.
"Ah Zhi has just recovered from a serious illness, and Erchen may not have seen the queen for a long time, so he went to see it. Who knew that the condition was a little recurring last night, so I was busy for a while. "The Queen Mother had already rested when Huyue went last night, but this did not prevent the Queen Mother from knowing about it. Now whether it is the former dynasty or the harem, as long as the Queen Mother wants to know, she must know.
"If you want to mourn the family, if this queen is really so weak, let's just change someone. This royal branch is scattered, and there is no one who has a concubine, how can it be like words? "In addition to worshipping the Buddha now, the Queen Mother just wants to hug her grandson. Yang Li'er's birth before made her feel distressed for a long time, and now that she looks at Lingge's body, she naturally wants to find another way.
"Let's talk about it later, the imperial doctor said that it's okay to recuperate." Qing Ruifan has no confidence, but he still has to say so. It is impossible for Huyue to put Gu Lingge in a disadvantageous position, so he will pick up the good ones and tell them to the Queen Mother, and the same is true for Qing Ruifan.
"The mourning family heard that there are also objections in the court that the queen's middle palace is immoral, so the emperor should think about it more." Although the Queen Mother only suggested that Qing Ruifan think about it more on the surface, there was no doubt in her words that Qing Ruifan understood it clearly. The Queen Mother was also a powerful person back then, and even now, few people dare to question her authority. Although Qing Ruifan was not very satisfied with the Queen Mother's approach, he had to nod.
