readx;? Although Hua Yueman is the crown princess, she doesn't have much real power in the harem, so Rao is she gave the order, and the little eunuchs didn't move, but looked towards Fu Lu one after another. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
After Fu Lu's acquiescence nodded, they walked towards Cao Yueting.
Although Hua Yueman didn't say anything on her face, in fact, she didn't ignore the actions of those little eunuchs.
It's just, even if she sees it in her eyes?
She is a princess who comes to make peace with her, and it is common for her to have no real power in the harem, which is why she has to pull Fu Lu to come, otherwise let alone those little eunuchs, even the guards behind her, she will not move half a minute.
It's frustrating, isn't it?
But this is the reality, don't look at her as the crown princess, but if she doesn't fight or grab, there is not much difference between her and the palace maid.
"You can't beat me, you let me go, as long as you let me go, I can give you a lot of silver, and treasure, what do you want?"
"Let me go, let me go...... I'm really just confused, I'm wrong, don't hit me......"
At this time, Cao Yueting, who was put on the bench, was already so frightened that she couldn't say anything, looking at her, she looked like a flower raised in a greenhouse, and she couldn't withstand any wind and rain at all.
Hua Yueman was not in the mood to watch Cao Yueting continue to go crazy here, so she pulled up the Qiqiao, which had recovered a lot, from the ground, turned around and was about to leave, but saw a row of lanterns in the distance walking towards this side.
This is?
As the palace maid carrying the lantern stood outside the door of Fuli Garden, the eunuch's chant rang out one after another: "The Queen Mother has arrived at ——!"
Empress dowager?
Although Hua Yueman wondered why the Queen Mother came at this time, she still knelt down with everyone in the palace.
Under the careful support of the eunuch, the queen mother stepped out of the carriage, glanced lightly at the Rich Garden with torches, and smiled softly: "Why are so many people crowded here?"
The guards and palace people in the courtyard naturally did not dare to speak, and they were not qualified to speak to the queen mother first.
In the silence of everyone, Hua Yueman lowered her eyes and gently greeted her: "The concubine asks the imperial grandmother for peace." ”
When the queen mother heard Hua Yueman's voice, she was stunned for a moment, and then walked over with a smile: "It turns out that the crown princess is also here?" She walked over with the support of the eunuch, and slowly stretched out her hand towards Hua Yueman, "Hurry up, the ground is too cold, be careful of freezing your body." ”
Hua Yueman was stunned, but she didn't dare to hesitate, and stood up with the queen mother's hand: "Let the imperial grandmother bother." ”
The palace people and guards kneeling on the ground, although they did not speak, their eyes immediately condensed a layer of awe.
This honor is what others desire but can't ask for, in this harem, to be able to get the queen mother's personal support, which is more precious than the emperor's reward.
It's just that the moon is full, but she is not so happy and excited, the queen mother herself is low-key, but now she has buttoned such a big hat in front of so many people, I don't know why, she always feels that this honor has made her inexplicably panicked.
"Queen Mother, please save me...... The Queen Mother!" Cao Yueting, who was on the chair, crawled towards the Queen Mother like crazy, her eyes full of panic, as if she was greatly frightened, "The Queen Mother, please help me...... The crown princess is going to kill me!"
The Queen Mother frowned slightly, looking at Cao Yueting, who was discolored, a touch of distress flashed in her eyes, but she didn't let her get up, but asked Hua Yueman: "Princess, this is ......"
Hua Yueman naturally didn't dare to hide it, and said simply: "When the concubine was walking at night, she heard that there were assassins in Fuli Garden, so she asked the guards to search it, but I didn't want the assassins to find it, but I found the palace maid who had been missing in my bedroom for a day, and Cao Meiren couldn't explain anything, so I suspected that Cao Meiren detained the palace maid without permission." ”
"It's not like this, it's not...... Cao Yueting shook her head fiercely, and vigorously denied it, "I didn't detain the palace maid, I didn't ......"
Hua Yueman smiled: "Since Cao Meiren has not been detained, then why is the palace maid of my dormitory found in Fuli Garden in embarrassment? Could it be that the palace maid of my bedroom has itchy skin, and she can't take the initiative to come to Fuli Garden to ask Cao Meiren to whip her?"
Cao Yueting wanted to tear Hua Yueman's mouth in her heart, but she couldn't say anything on her face, and under Hua Yueman's sharp gaze, she stood up again: "No, yes...... It's the ......."
"It doesn't matter what it is, since Cao Meiren can't say it, then don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless. Hua Yueman smiled faintly, "The country has national laws, the family has family rules, there are no rules, even if I know that Cao Meiren is innocent, but others don't necessarily understand, if I don't act with the palace law today, I'm afraid that in the future, some people will say that I am cheating for personal gain." ”
Such a full moon made the people kneeling on the ground a little dumbfounded, in their opinion, this princess is not only a puppet marriage partner, but also a person who eats food and doesn't care about anything.
But they didn't expect that even a princess who was so insignificant in their hearts, even dispensable, was now not afraid of the scene in front of the queen mother, and her words were not only clear and coherent, but also smashed on the idea, so that the person being questioned had to be anxious, but he couldn't explain anything.
But just when everyone was looking at Hua Yueman, the queen mother, who had been silent, opened her mouth with a smile: "The crown princess is really a fair and strict person, and the mourning family said at the beginning that she was not wrong, as long as the princess is there, sooner or later the unhealthy atmosphere of this harem will be completely eradicated." ”
"It's just ......," the Queen Mother said, and suddenly held Hua Yueman's hand, "For Cao Meiren's matter, the mourning family thinks...... It should be that the crown princess is arbitrary. ”
Hua Yueman was stunned for a moment, and looked at the Queen Mother with a slight frown.
The queen mother smiled and still loved her: "Today is when the mourning family was passing by Weiyang Palace, and suddenly remembered that Cao Meiren found the mourning family a few days ago, saying that there was too much dust in Fuliyuan, and there was not enough manpower to clean it thoroughly. ”
The tone of the Queen Mother's speech was obviously seven points soft and three points of courtesy, but Hua Yueman felt that these words were sharper than a sharp knife and more dazzling than cold light.
"Cao Meiren should be afraid that speaking out about the mourning family will make the princess misunderstand the mourning family, so she has been hesitating. The Queen Mother said, and even tightened Hua Yueman's hand for a few minutes, "Although the crown princess should control these new beauties who have entered the palace, the mourning family still feels that harmony is still the main thing in everything." ”
Hua Yueman only felt that her limbs were cold, especially the hand that was held tightly by the Queen Mother, which was no less than being wrapped in a layer of ice, but the sad thing was that even if she was cold and piercing, she couldn't pull out her tightly held hand.
Although Cao Yueting was still kneeling on the ground, she no longer seemed so humble at this moment, she slowly raised her cheeks, obviously there were tears in her round eyes, but the color had already changed from pleading to ridicule.
"You girl must have been frightened by what had just happened. The Queen Mother suddenly turned her eyes and looked at Qiqiao, obviously with a smile in her eyes, but the majesty in her tone was something that everyone dared not shake and question, "Why don't you hurry up and explain to your master?
What can Qiqiao say? What else can she say when things have developed like this? Wiping the tears on her cheeks, she endured the stinging pain of hundreds of needles all over her body, and held Hua Yueman's arm.
"Niangniang, it's all slaves and maids who are not good, it's that the slaves and maids just heard about the assassins, and they were so frightened that they forgot to explain, today during the day, it is indeed ...... It was indeed the queen mother who asked the slave maid to come over to help. ”
What is more aggrieved than being bullied but not being able to say it? What is more sad than wanting to cry and not being able to cry?
Qiqiao felt that her heart was very painful now, but she knew that even if it hurt her, she had to endure it, because if she couldn't bear it, her mother would also suffer with her.
Fu Lu shook his head helplessly, sighed almost inaudibly, and turned his eyes sideways unwilling to look again.
He understands Hua Yueman's immortal heart, and he also understands the pain of Qiqiao, but even if he doesn't give up and hurt, what can he do? This is the palace, this is the appearance is glamorous, and the inner is the most real helplessness.
Cao Yueting shook off the frost like an eggplant that had been beaten by frost, and when she heard that the queen mother was talking to her, she immediately came to life: "What the queen mother said is, in fact, I didn't do anything to the palace maid, but the palace maid was too weak to be raised by the princess's side, but she did some work, so she was so desperate." ”
She stood up on her own, subconsciously leaned to the side of the queen mother, her eyes had already dried her tears, and she peeked at the full moon for a while, and the gloating was especially obvious.
For the things that everyone knows, the queen mother doesn't want to continue to pretend, so she quietly slapped the back of Cao Yueting's hand, and smiled again and opened her mouth to Hua Yueman: "It's not early now, the mourning family is going back to rest, since you are on the way, why don't you take the princess to accompany the mourning family?"
This should not need to be more obvious......
Hua Yue stood there without any reaction, as if she had never heard the Queen Mother's words at all.
Qiqiao took a step forward worriedly, and held her arm tightly: "Niangniang, it's all a slave's fault today, let's go back......"
Fu Lu was afraid that Hua Yueman couldn't help but collide with the queen mother, and he was also playing a round on the side: "The slave just remembered that the prince said that he would stay in Weiyang Palace tonight, and the princess might as well ...... Let's go back first...... Get ready......"
Hua Yueman looked at these people standing in front of her, pouting helplessly and saying tactfully, what did she feel in her heart, but she wanted to laugh very much.
The kind of laughter that looks up to the sky and laughs until it sheds tears......
"Hurry up and send the princess back, it's not too early. Suddenly, a crisp woman's voice sounded from behind, and Mingmei, who was in Weiyang Palace before, walked out leisurely with Hua Yue's full thighs.
She greeted the palace maids kneeling on the ground like a master, and her smug expression hung unabashedly on a small red face.
What is the crown princess? No matter what, she shows off her might, shouts and kills, and in the face of the queen mother, she still has to compromise and seek perfection?
Bah!
But they are all people under the fence, why pretend to be so bad?
