Chapter 4: Hate out of Love
Mu Jingxian was arguing with Sun Delin and the guards outside, and the emperor and Ye Chengli inside heard it.
Ye Chengli secretly blamed Mu Jingxian for not coming, but he saw that the emperor's face was gloomy, and he was afraid that the emperor would blame her.
The only thing that can be done now is to remain silent, the more you protect Mu Jingxian, the more things will only deteriorate, even if you say a word, the two of them will be affected.
The wine glass in the emperor's hand was trembling, and he thought, "Concubine Xian, as long as you dare to break in, I will make you pay a terrible price." ”
The scene was very tense, as if the air was condensed, and the emperor and Ye Chengli were both staring at the door.
And they both, and said in silence, Do not come in.
Suddenly, the door sounded, and little by little it was pushed open, and a peerless beauty appeared at the door.
The two of them closed their eyes tightly, and they were really afraid of something.
Mu Jingxian walked into the main hall, neither humble nor arrogant, and glanced at Ye Chengli.
The two haven't seen each other for almost two years, and I saw that he looked haggard and didn't have the heroic spirit of the year.
It seems that he has not had a happy past two years.
Ye Chengli hurriedly stood up, bowed his hand and said, "Minister, see Concubine Xian Niangniang." ”
A word almost tore Mu Jingxian's heart apart, and the two of them became so rusty, they really wanted to run over and hug him and pour out all their grievances.
But reason told her that she couldn't do it, in order to protect him, in order to protect two generations of her family.
Mu Jingxian can only hide a love in her heart and bear it alone.
"The concubines see the emperor." Mu Jingxian bowed deeply to the emperor.
When the emperor saw Mu Jingxian, all his anger was thrown out of the clouds, and said, "Concubine Ai, please get up, why didn't you see me for a while, and Concubine Ai ran over?" ”
Walked over and took her hand, patted her gently, led her to his drooping hand, and helped her to sit down.
Ye Chengli thought in his heart that he poured the five-flavor bottle, and his hands hung down, eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.
"Ai Concubine, why didn't the emperor bring it? Let Ye Taishou see, he hasn't seen our king yet. "The emperor deliberately made Ye Chengli uncomfortable.
"King Zheng is taking a nap, don't disturb him." Mu Jingxian said.
The emperor smiled and said, "Well, it seems that Ye Taishou has no relationship with the emperor." ”
Mu Jingxian secretly glanced at Ye Chengli, seeing that his expression was extremely embarrassed, she had to find a way to get him out, and said, "I heard that Ye Taishou is going to Jinzhou to take up his post, and the road is far away, so I should leave early." ”
Ye Chengli arched his hand and said, "Concubine Xie Xian, I will leave tomorrow." ”
"Mrs. Ye respects you with a cup, which can be regarded as my practice for you." The emperor poured himself a glass on the table, came to Ye Chengli's seat, picked up the wine jug and poured a glass for Ye Chengli.
came to Ye Chengli's side and said, "After drinking this cup, I will serve the court well in the future." ”
Mu Jingxian was startled, stood up and stared at the emperor.
Ye Chengli was also stunned, it was so difficult that the emperor had to treat himself to death, and the emperor's order could not be violated, so he bowed and said: "Thank you for the emperor's gift." ”
He picked up the glass of wine and was about to drink it.
"Slow." Mu Jingxian walked quickly to the two of them.
The emperor had a displeased expression on his face.
Mu Jingxian walked to where Ye Chengli was sitting, poured a glass from the pot of wine, returned to the two of them and said, "Ye Taishou, this palace respects you a glass." ”
Ye Chengli was shocked and didn't let her drink it, so she found out that the wine was poisonous, let her drink it, and Xian'er would accompany her to death.
Mu Jingxian raised her wine glass and said, "Please." ”
Ye Chengli's wine glass in his hand was trembling, and the wine was sprinkled on the ground, looking at her, asking her not to drink it, thinking: "Xian'er, don't do stupid things." ”
Mu Jingxian told him with her eyes, I am willing to die with you, if you die, I will definitely not survive, and took the glass of wine and put it to my mouth.
The emperor snatched the wine glass from Mu Jingxian's hand, drank the wine himself, glared at her angrily, and told her that Mu Jingxian was not so narrow-minded.
This drove Ye Chengli and Mu Jingxian to an accident, and they were already villains, and they felt deeply guilty about being a villain.
"Then Ye Taishou will go back and clean up and go to work." The Emperor turned his back to the two.
Ye Chengli walked to the middle of the hall, knelt down and arched his hand: "The minister is leaving." ”
Mu Jingxian watched Ye Chengli walk out of the door step by step, this separation may be goodbye, trying not to let tears fall.
"Accept the gift, take care of it for the rest of your life." Mu Jingxian thought silently in her heart.
The emperor saw Mu Jingxian's reluctant appearance again, and threw the quilt on the ground fiercely.
Mu Jingxian was startled, and then came back to her senses.
"What else do you want me to do?" The Emperor asked, holding her up.
Mu Jingxian knelt on the ground and didn't say a word.
"You really don't want to say a word to me?" The Emperor asked.
Mu Jingxian was still speechless.
"You trespassed here to participate in the proceedings, do you know that you have already done politics?" The emperor questioned her, "Do you know what the consequences of interfering in the harem are?" ”
"The concubine is willing to accept the punishment." Mu Jingxian said.
The emperor turned around a few times in anger, and if he had been someone else, he would have been dragged out and beheaded.
Seeing the woman he loved, he was reluctant to give her any disposition and swallowed hard: "I forgive you for the first time, and it is also the last time, step back." ”
Mu Jingxian stood up and turned to leave.
Come to the door.
Hanxiang clearly heard everything happening inside outside, thinking that the master would definitely die this time, but he didn't expect to come out alive.
Frightened, he hurriedly stepped forward to support Mu Jingxian, and hurried out of here before the emperor could change his mind.
Sun Delin just wanted to enter the house.
"Get out." The Yellow Emperor shouted.
was so frightened that Sun Delin stepped back on one of the feet he had just raised, and looked back at Mu Jingxian's back, this lady was really pampered and proud.
thought to himself: "It's no wonder that Concubine Xian, it was the emperor who forcibly broke up a pair of mandarin ducks." ”
Mu Jingxian returned to Qingyayuan and sat down on her feet.
Hanxiang hurriedly poured a cup of tea, handed it to her, and said, "Niangniang, drink a cup of tea to suppress the shock." ”
Mu Jingxian's whole heart "bumpered" and jumped into one.
Suddenly, I had a premonition that something big was happening.
The emperor would not let Ye Chengli go so easily, this time he did not stop him from dying, would he send someone to assassinate him on the road?
"Little plum." Mu Jingxian shouted.
Xiao Lizi ran into the room and bent over to listen to the order.
"You have to find a way to get out of the palace and inform General Lin so that he can secretly protect General Ye." Mu Jingxian commanded.
Han Xiang saw that Mu Jingxian was playing with fire and self-immolation, and dissuaded: "Niangniang, let's stop here, if the emperor wants General Ye to die, no one can stop it, if you do this, if you let the emperor know, even if the emperor is reluctant to kill you, it will be difficult for you to live in the harem in the future." ”
"I can't care about it so much, I just want him to be safe, he has promised the emperor that he will not use martial arts, he doesn't know what to suffer along the way, I just want him to arrive in Jinzhou safely." Mu Jingxian is only thinking about Ye Chengli in her heart now.
"Did the lady think about the king? If Niangniang falls out of favor, the king will be very dangerous, and now Concubine Liu and the queen are regarded as a thorn in the eye of you and the king, and Niangniang wants to protect the little prince. Hanxiang made it clear that it was broken.
Mu Jingxian was as stunned as a wooden chicken, why was she so useless, why couldn't she even save her beloved, and her tears were like pearls broken.
Hanxiang said again: "Niangniang, General Ye will definitely be able to reach Jinzhou safely, the more you do for him, the more angry the emperor will be, all Niangniang can do now is stay out of the matter." ”
When Mu Jingxian heard this, she had nothing to say, what Hanxiang said was not unreasonable, she and Ye Chengli could only wait for fate to arrange.
……
Next
Mu Jingxian just got up.
I only heard Xiao Lizi shouting outside: "The slave is too thick." ”
Mu Jingxian was startled.
Why did the Queen Mother suddenly come to the palace, she has always disliked herself.
hurriedly put on his outer clothes, but he was not yet fully dressed.
Four elderly palace ladies pushed the door in, and the four palace maids in front of them, the middle one was gorgeously dressed, with silver hair fluttering, full of jewels, and domineering.
With the support of the two palace maids, he walked into the room, looking like a teacher asking for guilt.
The queen, Concubine Liu, and Concubine Jing followed behind, with a quick expression after Concubine Zhixian's death.
The little eunuch stood outside the door.
Mu Jingxian's face turned pale with fright, and she hurriedly knelt down to greet her, saying, "The concubine saw the Queen Mother, and she failed to meet her and hoped to atone for her sins." ”
Someone helped the Queen Mother to sit down.
I saw that the Queen Mother's face was gloomy and asked, "Concubine Xian, are you guilty?" ”
Mu Jingxian listened to the Queen Mother's tone, as if she was holding evidence, and came to ask, did someone inform the Queen Mother? He didn't do anything wrong, so he didn't admit it, and asked: "The concubine doesn't know what crime she has committed, and she hopes that the queen mother will know it." ”
"Concubine Xian's harem rules, you can not abide by them, but if you interfere in the harem, you are a capital crime."
Mu Jingxian saw that the Queen Mother had made the matter clear, and there was nothing to be afraid of now, so it was useless to be afraid, so she said boldly: "The concubine did not interfere in politics, but I heard that General Ye was going to Jinzhou to take up his post, so I went to see him off." ”
Syllable.
The Queen Mother slammed her palm on the table, shook the teacups, and shouted: "As the emperor's woman, you should know how to avoid suspicion, the emperor didn't summon you, you broke into Zhenghua Palace without permission, what crime should you be guilty of?" ”
Mu Jingxian didn't want to explain too much, and said, "The concubine is at the mercy of the Queen Mother." ”
"Are you pleading guilty?" The Queen Mother snorted coldly.
Mu Jingxian smiled bitterly and said, "There is no excuse for the crime you want to add." ”
The Queen Mother said angrily: "You, someone came to drag Concubine Xian out and kill her with a cane." ”
Two eunuchs came up, grabbed Mu Jingxian's two arms, and dragged them out.
Suddenly, someone outside shouted: "The emperor has arrived." ”
The people present were stunned, when did the emperor know about it, and why did he come so quickly?
The emperor walked quickly into the room, and when he saw that everyone was present, he glared fiercely at the two little eunuchs.
Frightened, the two little eunuchs hurriedly let go of their hands.
The emperor stepped forward to salute the queen mother first, and said, "The sons and daughters see the queen mother." ”
"The emperor is coming fast enough." The Queen Mother said coldly.
The emperor smiled and said: "Erchen was going to greet the queen mother, but when he heard that the queen mother was here with Concubine Xian, the son-in-law rushed over. ”
The Queen Mother sneered: "Really? ”
The Emperor smiled reluctantly.
In fact, when Xiao Lizi saw the Queen Mother in Qingyayuan, she had already slipped out and informed the emperor.
"Yesterday, Concubine Xian broke into Zhenghua Palace without permission, and the emperor has to give an explanation to the mourning family, otherwise there are still rules in the harem."
The Yellow Emperor looked at a few concubines, and some of them must have played with right and wrong, told the Queen Mother, and glared at them angrily.
"You don't have to look at them, your queen mother is not confused, how can there be secrets in the harem, how will the emperor punish Concubine Xian."
The emperor was stunned, if he didn't give the queen mother an explanation today, he would anger the queen mother, and the life of Concubine Xian would not be saved.
I can only be ruthless, look at the front first, gritted my teeth and said: "Concubine Xian is pampered and arrogant, she is not subject to the rules of the palace, and she is grounded in Qingyayuan for a month."
The Queen Mother suddenly stood up and shouted: "The emperor is reluctant to punish Concubine Xian, the mourning family will be the master of the emperor, Concubine Xian interfered in the government affairs, should have given death, and she was meritorious in giving birth, and she was banned from Qingyayuan forever, and the king was raised by the emperor." ”
Mu Jingxian was shocked, she didn't complain about what to do with herself, she gave her child to the queen to raise, she couldn't accept it, and begged: "The queen mother ......"
"Shut up," the Queen Mother interrupted Mu Jingxian's words and said, "For the sake of the lives of hundreds of people in your Mu family, you better be smarter." ”
After saying that, he got up and left.
The emperor didn't dare to intervene, in this matter of the harem, the queen mother held the power of life and death, and she didn't dare to contradict the queen mother.
Mu Jingxian looked at the emperor and smiled bitterly. Slumped on the ground.
