Chapter Twenty-Three: Pumping to the Broken Water and Flowing More

Time inadvertently came to the sixth day of the fifth month of the first year of Daxing, at that time, Yueheng had already recovered under the care of Li Guifei, and the sixth day of the fifth month was the big day when Yueheng turned four years old.

At that time, Qin Meiren's body still didn't seem to be good, and when Yun Tilt saw her in Agarwood Pavilion, although she was in good spirits, she was still pale and her body was a little weak.

The concubines have brought generous gifts to gather at the Agarwood Pavilion to celebrate the four-year-old celebration of Yueheng, this has always been deserted Agarwood Pavilion was immediately full of laughter, not only that, whether it is decoration, or eating tea and drinking, one of the qiē in this Agarwood Pavilion has been dotted really well.

It's just that Gyeongbokgung Palace doesn't have a throne yet, and no one lives with Qin Meiren, so Yun Tian can't help but wonder who is busy with this qiē. In this exploration, the hurried figure of Concubine Li shuttled back and forth in Yun Tian's sight, and Yun Tian couldn't help but be taken aback.

At this moment, there was a scream like a male duck that had not changed for thousands of years from behind him: "The emperor has arrived, and the queen has arrived!" ”

Yun Tian retracted his gaze and bowed down with everyone to worship: "Long live my emperor, long live long live, long live the queen's mother, thousand years old, thousand years old!" ”

"Flat!" Xi Ze shouted as he walked up to Qin Meiren, helped her up, and said gently, "It's said that Er's birthday, Mother's hard day, Wan'er, today is Yueheng's four-year-old day, in fact, the biggest credit should be awarded to you!" ”

Qin Meiren was a little flattered when she heard this, she got up and thanked her softly: "Thank you for the emperor's compassion, in fact, the concubine didn't work hard, it was the concubine's job to be able to add Ding to the emperor and take care of the emperor's heir, and the concubine would never dare to shout tired!" Now, Yue Heng has finally turned four years old, growing up day by day, the concubine is really happy in her heart, and today I have to thank Concubine Li for helping to make a point, otherwise the concubine's body is afraid that it will not be able to support it, this is all Concubine Li's love for Yue Heng, and the concubine is grateful! ”

Xi Ze then turned his eyes to look at the inconspicuous concubine Li who stood among the concubines, if she really repented and reformed, Xi Ze couldn't help but feel relieved in her heart, Xi Ze had also heard of the efforts she had made during this time, and now looking at the entire courtyard, it was also very proper, he raised a smile and praised: "Qin Yao has a heart, she has done a good job, I will definitely reward you later!" ”

When Concubine Li heard this, she couldn't help crying with joy, bowed her head and blessed herself, and said respectfully: "Thank you for your praise, these are what concubines should do!" ”

Xi Ze was in a good mood, and took over Yueheng, who was shouting "Father" with wide eyes from the nurse, and led everyone to the table.

In a short time the feast began. I saw Gong E lining up in a neat queue and stepping on broken steps to present delicious wine and food, as well as the tricks of the new rehearsal of the servants to amuse everyone, and I didn't need to ask to know that these were all arrangements made by Concubine Li.

As a result, this courtyard is a pleasant scene of harmony and joy of the imperial concubine.

This night, due to Qin Meiren's poor physical condition, Xi Ze did not stay in Agarwood Pavilion, to everyone's surprise, Xi Ze stayed in Yaoguang Hall this night, and the concubine Li returned to favor quickly, and couldn't help but look sideways in the six palaces.

What everyone didn't expect was that after the return of favor, Concubine Li did not stop stepping on the Lingxi Hall and Agarwood Pavilion because of this, she was still as usual, after asking for peace from the middle palace every day, she went to help take care of Chengyou and Yueheng in person, so for a while, Concubine Li's grace rose sharply, becoming the only person in the six palaces who could match Jia Wanyi's grace, and even overwhelmed Jia Wanyi, everyone in the six palaces was dumbfounded, of course, except for Wang Ningxuan!

She still remembered the resentful eyes of Concubine Li on the day the ban was lifted, she had always been arrogant, and the feeling of falling from the clouds to the bottom of the cliff was really unacceptable.

But so what?

This day still has to go on, for the glory of the entire Wang family, and for her own future, bowing to Xi Ze and fate is her only way out.

However, in the days of Li Guifei's infinite beauty, the middle palace did not necessarily feel at ease.

The night wind rustled the leaves of the sycamore trees in the courtyard of the middle palace, the occasional hiss of the jackdaws breaking through the clouds seemed abrupt and terrifying, and the hurried footsteps of the shadows looked scattered and chaotic in the interlacing of moon shadows, losing the orderliness that it should have been.

Wang Ningxuan leaned on the phoenix couch and couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw this: "Shuying, why are you so flustered?" ”

Shuying hurriedly sent back the palace people standing around, took a few steps forward, knelt down steadily, and reported in a low voice: "Niangniang, something is wrong!" The slave maid heard that the second son and the third son of the Fu family, Fu Chuan, were in the school field to learn martial arts, and the emperor was also there at that time, so he could only point to the end and could not use the hidden weapon, but the second son was eager to win and used the secret weapon to plot against the Fu boat many times, and he still refused to give up after knocking the Fu boat to the ground, and even the emperor ordered him to stop, he still did not stop, and even beat Fu Zhou ruthlessly, until the eldest prince stopped it! This Fu boat was beaten and bruised, and his left hand was ...... His left hand has been crippled by the second son! ”

Wang Ningxuan's face changed greatly when he heard this, and he immediately sat up straight, and asked hurriedly: "Then what did the emperor say at that time?" ”

Who knew that Shuying was even more anxious: "It was that the emperor didn't say anything at that time, and the eldest prince and the eldest prince were even more worried and couldn't figure out the holy will!" ”

Is the Wang family already so ignorant of life and death? Dare to beat the court officials in front of the emperor?

Wang Ningxuan seems to have seen the tragic situation of the Xu clan of the previous dynasty being razed and leveled in front of him due to the rebellion of the abolished prince, is this the inescapable fate of her Wang clan?

She closed her eyes in disappointment and asked in a deep voice, "When did this happen?" ”

"Five days ago!" Shuying replied truthfully.

"Five days ago?! Hmph......" Wang Ningxuan said coldly, "Shouxuan also knows that he has made a big mistake, and he doesn't dare to let this palace know about it?!" Did my father ask someone to bring the news in? ”

"Yes! Five full days have passed, and the old man is anxious and doesn't know what to do, so he sent someone to ask Niangniang what to do next? ”

"What else can Hongu do?! The emperor doesn't squeak, do we still have to move forward without knowing whether to live or die? Wang Ningxuan was so angry that he brushed off the tea cup on the table on his side with a palm, and reprimanded sharply, "How does this palace usually tell them?" We must abide by our duties, we must not be arrogant and arrogant, and use power to bully others, how many pairs of eyes should be staring at our Wang family in the court, waiting to see a good show, others have not secretly stumbled, they will stumble on themselves, or in front of the emperor, how big do they think the face of the palace in front of the emperor? How many people can be protected? One Qin Yao is enough for this palace to break its heart, how much more chaos do they have to add to this palace to stop? I don't know if I live or die?! How many people can this palace save? Hongu is a man, not a god! ”

"Mother's anger! Take care of your phoenix! The shadow below was so frightened that he was buried in the ground and trembled, and he didn't dare to breathe.

Wang Ningxuan took a long breath, eased his mind, took out a piece of paper from his sleeve for a long time, slowly unfolded it, looked at it and looked at it, as if he had made a great determination, Fang handed it to Shuying, and told Shuying very strictly: "Now this palace is ...... This is the only way to make a decision! Shuying, you give this piece of paper to your father, be sure to ask your father to pick up the things on this paper the same way, and send it to the Middle Palace, not the slightest difference! Father naturally knows what is important! ”

Shuying took it, just glanced at it, and was shocked, and exclaimed bitterly: "Niangniang......"

"Shut up!" Wang Ningxuan interrupted sharply, "You know how powerful this is, you should control your mouth, it's not this palace that scares you, if there is a trace of rumors about this matter, you should know what the ending will be for you and your whole clan!" ”

Hearing this, Shuying had to close her lips and nodded vigorously.

Wang Ningxuan stared at Shuying tightly and then instructed: "Also, you have to pass a message to your father for the palace, something like Shouxuan, the Wang family must not happen a second time, if Shouxuan is useless, then it will be a rice bucket to keep at home, and the Wang family is not short of this money, so as not to be too successful and more than ruined!" Do you remember everything? ”

"Yes, the slaves and maids have all remembered! We will live up to our mission! ”

After a while, Wang Ningxuan remembered another thing, so he asked again: "Last time, the Fu family provoked the middle palace because of the emperor's departure from the middle palace in the middle of the night, and the spies buried in the middle palace have not done anything in the past two months, this matter is really difficult to handle, have you found anything over there?" ”

Shu Ying settled down and replied: "Live up to the mother's trust, the slave maid has been found out, and it is the flower note on duty in the inner hall!" ”

"Good!" Wang Ningxuan's face did not have a trace of waves, "This palace knows, you should retreat first!" Hongu wants to be alone and quiet! ”

"Slave and maid retire!"
