Volume 1 Spoiling Chapter 8 The Past
Chun Xi came out of the gate of the Yongshou Palace with a lot of heart. Suddenly, I heard An Guiren's voice behind him: "Why are you in a hurry?" Could it be that you want to go back to Yikun Palace again to see what good things Liang's father-in-law has sent? ”
Chunxi stopped, turned around with anger, and looked at An Guiren with a smile: "An Guiren is favored now, and the saint likes it, that is An Guiren's ability." As for whether Chunxi wants to go back to the palace to see what the emperor ordered to send today, it is also Chunxi's own business. An Guiren just takes care of himself, this time the emperor is busy, if he is more idle, I don't know which sister has been favored like the nobleman. After speaking, he didn't leave any room for An Guiren to reply, and walked straight forward.
An Guiren was stunned in place, and when he came back to his senses, Chunxi had already walked far away. I didn't know where to go when I was stuffy, so I turned around and went back to the palace angrily, and kept muttering: "Isn't it that the emperor took a look at the fox and let people send some things, and he dared to be so arrogant in front of me, and he really took himself seriously." Anyway, I, an nobleman, was also given the title by the emperor himself, and my position is above her, but she is good, but she wants to get along with me. Guo Luoluo, Chunxi - let's ride a donkey and read the record book, and we'll see. ”
Chun Xi hurried all the way back to Yikun Palace, and Shu sleeves followed closely behind him, for fear that the inch-long flower pot bottom shoes would slip and there would be a mistake.
As soon as he entered the Yikun Gate, Kong Yang happily stepped forward to greet him. was about to say something, but seeing that Chunxi's face was not good, he didn't dare to say more, but said: "The little master is back."
Chunxi didn't say a word, and walked straight into the house. Lan Xin brought up the things she had just rewarded, and Shu Sleeves followed her into the house to see it, and hurriedly scolded: "Hurry up and take it down, put it away in the warehouse, you don't have to take it to the little master."
Lan Xin was inexplicably shocked by this reprimand, and was stunned for a while, and then urged her sleeves again before she reacted and hurriedly took her things down.
"All go out, let me be quiet." Chun Xi waved his hand to let Shu Sleeve go out.
Shu Sleeve saw that she was in a bad mood, so he didn't say much, and retreated with a group of people.
"What's going on?" Mu Hui pulled Shu Sleeve and asked anxiously.
"Yesterday, An noble man was favored, and this morning he came out to show off. I'm afraid that a few days ago, the emperor rewarded our little lord with a lot of things, and he looked red, and today he counted the little master. I'm afraid that the little master is not happy to listen to it and is angry. Shu Sleeve said, and told them about today's incident in Yongshou Palace.
"That An Guiren is really, he has been lucky to be recruited by the emperor a few times, and he doesn't take others in his eyes like this." Mu Hui was very dissatisfied when she heard this, and her voice was full of anger.
"Not really." Kong Yang also followed Mu Hui's words and said: "I heard that Concubine Yun was fine yesterday, she met An Guiren in the Imperial Garden, and she said a few words, and she is sick today."
"No wonder Concubine Yun didn't go to the meeting today." Shu sleeves said clearly: "Okay, don't talk about the masters here." How An Guiren is, it's not up to us. The most important thing is to make our little master happy. ”
"It's better for Gonggong Kong to secretly hand over the painting of the little master to Gonggong Liang, and the emperor will definitely come to Yikun Palace after seeing it." Lan Xin boldly proposed, her face was slightly red, and she was still a little scared in her heart.
"It's a good idea, but I'm afraid that the little master will be unhappy if he finds out. If you take it now, the emperor is coming, and the little master is angry, it will be bad. Shu Sleeve calmly analyzed it, and thought it was a good idea, but he was a little worried about it.
"Aunt Shu Sleeve is right, I understand the little master's temperament, this is slow in advance, and I will take it early tomorrow morning. At that time, the little lord's mood will inevitably be better. When the emperor comes, he will be even happier. Mu Hui nodded.
A few people thought of a way, and they were relieved, and they went their own way.
At night, Chunxi called Mu Hui and Shu Sleeve into the dormitory.
Chun Xi sat on the side of the collapse, holding the stove in her hand to warm it, and Mu Hui and Shu Sleeve stood beside her.
"Shu Sleeve, I asked you to come in so late because I had something to ask." There was silence for a long time before I heard the voice of Chunxi.
"Little master, excuse me." I originally thought I was going to ask about An Guiren, but I can listen to it but it's not like that.
"Today in the Yongshou Palace, mentioned half a year ago. What happened in this house? ”
Shu Sleeves looked embarrassed, but now that the little master has asked, he has to say it. I had to tell what happened half a year ago.
Half a year ago, Rong Guiren had just given birth to the prince Changhua, and the emperor was very happy, and he was given a name at the moment, who couldn't imagine that in half a day, the prince would suddenly die. The imperial doctor only said that the prince was congenitally deficient, and because of dystocia, it was difficult to breathe, so he was out of breath.
Although the emperor regretted it, he did not let people track it down. Rong Guiren, under the favor of the emperor, gradually walked out of another grief.
A month later, the queen mother had a difficult birth and gave birth to a prince. The prince was unharmed, but the queen collapsed and finally died. The emperor dropped out of the dynasty for five days, and he did not go to the harem for several days, until the next three or five days of Xuanrong nobles went to bed, but he never saw the rest of the harem concubines. Until two months ago, in order to make the emperor's mood better, the empress dowager decided to relaunch the general election set at the beginning of the year, and to accept a few more concubines for the emperor to make the emperor forget the grief of half a year ago.
"The incident of half a year ago is really a sad memory, no wonder Concubine Wan is not allowed to mention it." After listening to this, Chunxi also felt so sad.
"Little master, let's forget about these things as soon as possible." Shu sleeves admonished.
"Isn't there anyone responsible for these two things?" Chun Xi asked again.
"That's not it, the emperor is sad and sad, but he didn't hold the minions accountable too much. It's just strange to say, but Aunt Yinglan, who was the queen's personal attendant, suddenly disappeared, some people said that she missed the queen too much and accompanied the queen. ”
Shu Sleeve looked at the little lord on the floor, and was full of doubts in her heart, if the rest of the concubines heard about this, most of them would have cried with fright, but she didn't have the slightest intention of being afraid. The birth of these two princes can be said to have caused an uproar, and the people in the harem at that time were panicked. Bu Guiren also gave birth prematurely because of the news of the queen's mother's dystocia, but who knew that the Bu Guiren was crazy in the middle of the moon, so he had to move to the cold palace.
It is indeed strange to say, Rong Gui gave birth to a prince, the prince is gone, and he is still alive. The queen mother gave birth to a prince, and the prince was unharmed, but she lost her life. On the other hand, although Bu Guiren was born prematurely, because he was born to Gege, Xiao Gege is fine, and he is safe. But his life was saved, but people went crazy.
"Shu Sleeves, you go down first." Hearing what she wanted to know, Chun Xi didn't want to see Shu Sleeve again, so she retreated.
Shu Sleeve left with a puzzled face, she really couldn't guess the little master's thoughts. It's so different from others, her calmness is too surprising, and it's even more intimidating.
"Mu Hui, what do you think of this Aunt Yinglan?" Shu sleeves walked for a while before Mu Hui heard Chun Xi ask.
Mu Hui thought for a while and said, "There are two possibilities. The first is that he knew that someone had harmed the queen, and he hid for fear of causing death; Second, it has been murdered. ”
"How do you know that someone must have harmed the queen?" Chunxi looked at her and asked.
In fact, when the little master heard that Rong Guiren was happy, Mu Hui pondered for a long time later. I feel that there are too many things in this harem. Too many coincidences, too many conspiracies. Although this newborn child is difficult to raise, it is not impossible to survive. Rong Guiren must have been very uncomfortable when he lost his first child, and the second one must have been cautious, but he died at the age of two. How could you be so careless? This last one is even more unusual, just a few hours after birth, and then gone, it's really strange. Comparing the matter of the queen mother, it is even more strange. The queen mother had given birth to a prince before this, but the prince died early. This time another prince was born, but he suddenly collapsed, and someone must have done it on purpose. It is said that this woman will be more at risk of blood collapse if she gives birth to her first child, and this second child will be much easier. The queen mother should not be a frail person, there is a doctor guarding her every day, how can she have a blood collapse. ”
"That's what I'm wondering about, too." Chun Xi nodded: "Actually, we just entered the palace, and these are not what we should understand." But now that someone mentions it, the mystery remains unsolved, and there is always uneasiness in my heart. What happened a few months ago was too weird, first the little brother was gone, then the queen was gone, and finally there was a noble man who went crazy. ”
"We have no way of knowing what the truth is."
"You can always guess a thing or two."
"What did the little master think?" Mu Hui asked.
"What will the prince born to the noble man bring her?" Chun Xi asked rhetorically.
"Status, glory and wealth." Mu Hui blurted out without thinking.
"That's right. The mother is more precious than the son, if the noble person already has a son under his knees, Shu Sleeve also said that the emperor would promote her position, and also said that if the princes were still alive, they would already be concubines. Chun Xi nodded.
"But there are only Concubine Tong and Concubine Wan in this palace. Could it be ...... among them?"
"As soon as the queen dies, the greatest benefit belongs to the two mothers, they have no children under their knees, but the queen and the Rong nobles gave birth to the prince one after another, and they are all favored by the emperor, so aren't these jealous?" Chun Xi said, a chill in his heart.
"But who did this?" Mu Hui also felt strange, these two people didn't look like each other.
"After a long time, we will always know one day."
"Then the little lord should be careful, these two mothers are now the masters of the assistant six palaces, and if one of them does not go well, I am afraid that it will be a big disaster. What the little lord needs most now is the emperor's favor. By the way, it's better to let someone send the little master's painting to the emperor tomorrow, and the emperor will definitely come. Mu Hui remembered Lan Xin's proposal before, didn't want to hide it from her, and asked truthfully.
"No need. I just said a few days ago that the painting was missing, but today I found it again, and even if I send it to me, it may not be useful. Lately, you haven't seen anyone, where have you gone? Chunxi didn't agree with this method, remembering that Mu Hui was always not by her side these days, and became curious.
"The slave and maid naturally paved the way for the little master. I have been going around the Qianqing Palace these days, but I have met a little eunuch named Wei Yangling, this little Wei Zi is the apprentice of Liang Jiugong Liang's father-in-law, and he is also serving by the emperor's side, and I have some friendship with him. Mu Hui asked her like this, but she showed a smug look, and immediately told her what she had done recently.
"Apart from this little Weizi, have you met anyone?"
Mu Hui smiled: "The little master is really a god, how do you know?" I also got to know Master Cao. ”
Chun Xi laughed: "Is it the big red man next to the emperor?" Cao Ziqing, the first-class guard in front of the emperor? ”
"That's right." Mu Hui suddenly lowered her head and was embarrassed.
"Blushing what? Could it be that you ....." Seeing her like this, Chunxi guessed a few points and asked with a smile.
"No, no, don't guess, little master." Mu Hui hurriedly waved her hand to deny.
"Okay, I won't bother you, you can go to the Qianqing Palace tomorrow to investigate, has anything happened in the past few days?" Chunxi regained her smile and stopped teasing her.
"Huh."
