Chapter 105: Peace
Just now above the main hall, those women also laughed at her on the grounds that he had no rules, as if he was saluting the queen and indeed kneeling, even though she was the princess.
Now, the person she has to face is the emperor and queen.
Just as Yun Zhuyue's eyes flickered, he suddenly heard a sound of footsteps, and quietly walked from the door to the door, as if he was inquiring about the movement here.
Immediately, Yun Zhuyue had no need to hesitate, and after saluting the door, he knelt on the snow in an orderly manner.
The snow in this cold winter was not warm, and the moment she knelt on the ground, the biting chill reached her knees through the thick cotton cloth.
This is still the cold that Yun Zhuyue can feel when she has martial arts to guard against, if she is just an ordinary person, I am afraid that if she kneels like this, she will not be able to get up.
Knowing these feelings in his heart, but the clouds on his face were not revealed, he calmly knelt at the door of Qifeng Palace as if he was nothing.
Sure enough, Yun Zhuyue had just knelt down, and the little palace maid who was quietly standing in the window peeking at the outside scene retreated and saluted the queen in the room respectfully: "Qi Yu Niangniang, the princess has already knelt down." ”
"Oh? Bengong didn't tell her to kneel, but she knew the rules herself. The queen said unhurriedly, her eyes couldn't tell whether it was laughing or cold, and after taking a sip of tea, she instructed the little palace maid: "Continue to add fire, this room is not warm enough." ”
The little palace maid couldn't help but take a look, the gloomy sky outside, and the cold wind that suddenly blew, and she didn't dare to say that the room was actually much warmer than the outside.
In silence, she silently stepped forward and added a few pieces of silver charcoal and put them into the incense burner to burn.
This silver charcoal is much better than the silver charcoal outside, after all, it is a tribute, only people in the royal family can enjoy it, and a winter is just a little bit of an example, except for the queen, the rest of the people can save it.
During this period, when it was almost the time of the birthday banquet, the queen went to the Jinluan Palace through the back door, showed her face and said a few words to everyone, and then returned to the Qifeng Palace.
Different from the lively atmosphere of the Jinluan Palace, at the palace gate of Qifeng Palace, the straight and upright figure looks very thin.
Originally, it could be solved as long as Yun yelled a pain or a tired person month by month, but she endured it without saying a word.
But when the queen lay down on the beauty couch again, Yu Guang inadvertently looked out of the window, glanced at Yun Zhuyue's frozen face, and the slightly purple lips came into her eyes.
Suddenly, the queen frowned slightly and asked the little palace maid, "Has she always been like this?" ”
In the past, she also used this trick when she wanted to deal with those palace concubines, but none of those palace concubines knelt honestly like Yun Zhuyue, and basically ran to complain in less than a quarter of an hour.
When questioning, he inadvertently glanced at the incense burner outside, but saw that the three sticks of incense on the incense burner had burned out, and even the ashes were a little frosty.
"Back to Niangniang, the princess has been kneeling outside, and when the slave and maid stepped forward to give her an umbrella, she didn't speak, only said when you will see her and when will she get up."
The little palace maid respectfully replied to the queen's words, and did not dare to hide anything, but when she said this, her tone unconsciously carried a little admiration, and she was also moved by Yun Zhuyue's sincere attitude.
After hearing the meaning of her words, the queen couldn't help frowning and asked, "Why did you give her an umbrella?" Is it snowing outside? ”
"No," the little palace maid hurriedly shook her head and explained: "Queen Mother, when you went out just now, it was raining on this day, and the slave maid saw the princess Niangniang kneeling outside alone, which was a little miserable, so she ...... it."
Speaking of this, she realized that she had said something she shouldn't have said, and as soon as her face turned pale, she knelt on the ground, and hurriedly kowtowed to the queen: "The slave has exceeded the rules, please forgive the mother!" ”
It turned out to be raining outside.
The queen nodded knowingly, just because no matter where she went, someone held an umbrella for her, so she didn't feel cold.
Seeing that the little palace maid was frightened like this, she lost any interest, raised her hand, and waved her away: "Okay, you go down first, and call the princess to come in and talk." ”
"Yes, thank you!"
Seeing that the queen did not blame herself, the little palace maid breathed a sigh of relief, and did not dare to delay, so she hurriedly withdrew from the room.
When it was a little cold in the rain outside, and the clouds were a little blurry about the constitution, I saw a slender figure holding an umbrella to come to him.
"It's cold on the ground, get up quickly, the queen has summoned you!"
The little palace maid hurriedly helped Yun Zhuyue up, and Yun Zhuyue came back to her senses, it turned out that she was waiting for the queen to summon her in this place.
After being drenched in the ice rain for a while, her consciousness was a little numb.
It wasn't until she was brought into the queen's bedroom by the little palace maid that the heat from the burning of those silver charcoals enveloped her, and Yun Zhuyue came back to her senses slightly.
In the heat, she solemnly saluted the queen, and did not break the rules: "The concubines see the queen's mother, I wish the queen a long and healthy life!" ”
I don't know if I didn't forget to salute, but I also said a birthday message to the queen.
The queen looked at her carefully, and then withdrew her gaze from her with some disappointment, raised her hand and said, "Okay, you can sit down too, don't make this palace look like some kind of wicked person." ”
After sitting on the soft cushion for Yun Zhuyue, Yun Zhuyue touched the furniture that exuded a slight heat around him, and his hands were a little warm.
After drinking another cup of hot tea, she barely came to her senses.
The queen didn't take the initiative to speak, just waiting for her to ask first, so Yun Zhuyue also asked the queen with interest: "I don't know if the queen asked her concubines to come, what advice do you have?" ”
Looking at her conversation, it doesn't look like the rumors in the world, just a rude woman in the countryside.
But as soon as she thought of what happened at the gate of the palace, the queen's face turned a little colder.
"Instead of asking what advice this palace has, you should ask if you know if you are wrong?"
As soon as these words came out, the air suddenly sank a little with her words.
Yun Zhuyue's eyes flashed, her eyes lowered slightly, and her back was still straight: "Back to Niangniang, the concubine doesn't know what is wrong." ”
Syllable!
Almost without warning, the sound of porcelain explosion suddenly sounded in everyone's ears, and those little palace maids and eunuchs didn't even think about it, so they turned pale with fright and knelt on the ground one after another.
"The queen is angry!"
I saw them shouting in unison, but Yun Zhuyue was not frightened at all, and she didn't even blink her eyelids, she just asked puzzledly: "If the queen mother has any misunderstanding about the concubine, you might as well say it bluntly, just split your head and cover your face and ask the concubine if she knows what is wrong, and the concubine really doesn't know." ”
Although he knew that the queen would not be good if she suddenly called him to this place, she still didn't expect her to open her mouth and ask herself if she knew if she was wrong.
Could it be that someone said something in the queen's ear?
While thinking in his heart, Yun Zhuyue's expression did not change.
The queen angrily dropped the teacup, and her face turned red.
She suddenly felt that it was a mistake to call the clouds in month by month, because a moment of sympathy had kept her from getting rained.
"You actually told this palace that you don't know what is wrong?"
He asked Yun Zhuyue so rhetorically, and Yun Zhuyue did not continue to deal with him on this issue, but just bowed down to her, and said respectfully: "If the concubine is wrong, please also ask the queen to correct it, and the concubine will definitely correct it if she knows her mistake." ”
Maybe it was because of her sincere attitude that the queen's face looked a little better, but she didn't immediately explain it to her, but shook her face and said: "Okay, since you don't know the palace, I will tell you that you are pulling and pulling with the third prince at the gate of the palace today, what is the so-called matter?" ”
This woman was originally married to King Jiangchuan, and since she was already a wife, she should no longer have any ambiguities with other children in the royal family.
If she hadn't suppressed this matter, then if this matter got out, would they still be embarrassed in the royal family?
As the queen's words fell, Yun Zhuyue saw the anger in her eyes, and then she suddenly understood.
It turned out that the queen had summoned her because of this incident.
Knowing the reason in her heart, she didn't continue to be vague, but raised her eyes and explained to the queen: "Qi Yu Niangniang, please tell you the cause and effect of this matter." ”
Her voice was calm, and the queen couldn't help but gradually calm down with her tone, her face calmed a little, and she raised her hand, which meant that she was allowed to continue.
Yun Zhuyue explained to the queen what happened at the gate of the palace, and after listening, the queen understood.
It turned out that everything was just a misunderstanding, and Yun Zhuyue was not as unbearable as the little eunuch rumored.
Even so, the queen didn't immediately give him a good look, but asked again without being salty: "Since you can explain this matter, how should you report to the palace if you don't know about Shenyue Valley and the prince?" ”
Isn't the boiling thing that is now rumored in the middle of the court the assassination of the prince by Shenyue Valley?
Sure enough, I still asked what Yun Zhuyue was most worried about.
Immediately, Yun Zhuyue's heart sank, but he didn't dare to show the slightest slack on his face.
After the queen's voice fell, he took a deep breath and held back the anxiety in his heart, and explained to the queen calmly: "Qi Qi Niangniang about this matter, the concubine is a woman, there is nothing to say, but the concubine believes that the emperor will find out the truth of the matter. ”
"If this matter is really committed by Shenyue Valley, then the concubine will definitely not get out of the matter, and how to punish the concubine at that time will admit it, but at this moment, there is no complete evidence to prove that the death of the prince is related to Shenyue Valley, so the concubine has nothing to say, but the concubine is willing to believe in the imperial court."
These words fell on the queen's ears, and the queen couldn't help but look at her twice.
And Yun Zhuyue continued, looking very sincere: "The concubines and the prince are loyal to the emperor, why do you need to consciously do such a rebellious thing in the tomb? ”
She looked full of loyalty, and she didn't have the slightest sense of confrontation with the queen from beginning to end, let alone the vulgarity that was rumored to the outside world.
