Chapter 128: Tryst
"Someone has known about our affairs for a long time......"
This sentence shocked Wei Cheng into a cold sweat, and he hurriedly asked, "Who knows?" ”
"Jade Liangren."
"You told her?"
"She fulfilled us, you can rest assured, Yuliang has promised to intercede with the king and promote our marriage."
"Really?"
"Of course, everyone in Yuliang is fine......"
Having said that, Wei Cheng was still uneasy, and he always felt as if a pair of eyes were staring at them......
On the fifth watch, Wei Cheng pushed the sleeping Qingluo next to him, "Luo'er, wake up, you should go back......"
Qingluo said coquettishly half-asleep: "Let the family sleep for a while......"
As soon as Wei Cheng's heart softened, he let Qingluo sleep for half an hour. Half an hour later, Qingluo woke up, pretended to be a palace man again, and reluctantly said goodbye to Wei Cheng.
"Be careful on the way back." Wei Cheng instructed.
"I got it......"
Out of the door, it was still very dark, Qingluo looked around, and there was no one in sight, so she walked quickly to the harem.
The first few times she went to find Wei Cheng with excitement, but she was very nervous when she left. Later, the more she went, she was no longer nervous. She thought she was avoiding everyone's eyes, but she didn't know that she was being targeted.
Liuyun got up early today because Mrs. Cen's breakfast had been changed, so she went to the imperial dining room early to explain.
Although Liuyun saw Qingluo, he didn't recognize it, and only wondered: "Why did this little palace person go to Minglan Palace?" ”
……
The glazed pavilion of Minglan Palace, the sky will be bright before dawn.
Wei Muyu had already gotten up and was sitting in front of the dresser, looking slightly unhappy.
Qingluo hurried in, immediately knelt down, and said apologetically: "The slave and maid are late, and I ask the master to forgive me." ”
Because Wei Muyu promised to let Qingluo go to a private meeting at night, but in order to hide people's eyes, Qingluo only waited in her bedroom room all night, so she was also responsible for washing.
In the past, Qingluo woke up Wei Muyu after she came back from there, but today she slept for a while, so she was late.
"What, lying in a man's arms and reluctant to leave?"
Wei Muyu's face was gloomy, Qingluo was very uneasy, and her head hung low, for fear of meeting Wei Muyu's gaze.
"It seems that I shouldn't have promised Yifang to build a bridge for you! What did you promise me to come back on time? Do you know that if something goes wrong, you're going to hurt me! Wei Muyu was very angry.
"Master, the slave knows that she is wrong...... There won't be a next time for slaves......"
Wei Muyu sighed and said helplessly: "I think, you still don't want to see him in the future......
Qingluo immediately panicked, tears rolling in her eyes, "Master, the slave and maid really know that they are wrong, and the slave and maid promise that there will be no next time!" ”
"Guaranteed? You promised me before! What if I find out? You tell me! ”
"One person does things and one person is in charge, and the slave and maid will never involve the master!"
Wei Muyu seemed to be waiting for this sentence, and now that Qingluo had already said it, her tone softened, "It's not that I want to blame you, I'm also for your good!" If you want to have a long relationship with Wei Cheng, you can't be greedy. Otherwise, it will not only harm yourself, but also harm Wei Cheng. ”
"The slave knows ......"
"Were you found when you came back?"
Qingluo hurriedly shook her head, "No." ”
Wei Muyu breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, you can retreat and rest first!" ”
"Thank you, master."
Looking at the back of Qingluo leaving, Wei Muyu grabbed the comb tightly and vented her hatred to the comb in her hand. Qingluo's late return this time really scared her out of a cold sweat.
If it weren't for the fact that there was no other way, she would never take a risk and support Qingluo to meet Wei Cheng privately. If someone finds out, even if Qingluo takes all the blame, the other concubines will not let go of this opportunity and make her a mistake of lax discipline.
However, since she has chosen to take this path, she has no intention of turning back. Who told her that she could not have children? Without children, it is impossible to be pampered forever. She can't give birth to a child, so she can only hope for Qingluo.
That's right, that's why she supports Qingluo and Wei Cheng to fall in love, and when Qingluo is pregnant with a child, she borrows it, no, because she should say that she keeps it for herself.
In order to achieve this goal, she asked Wan Quan to make a statement to the king, promoted Wei Cheng to the head of the guard, and created a space for Qing Luo to be alone with Wei Cheng; asked Qingluo to pretend to be a palace person, and went to Wei Cheng with the wine that had been drugged.
Now that Qingluo and Wei Cheng have been happy for more than a month, Wei Muyu always pays attention to Qingluo's body, and only hopes that Qingluo will be happy as soon as possible.
Although Qingluo said that no one found out, Wei Muyu was still not at ease, she had always acted cautiously and acted step by step. Therefore, she brought Chang Shun over and asked Chang Shun to pay attention to the rumors in the palace. If something big is going to happen in the palace, smart people can always see the clues in the rumors of the palace people.
Qingluo returned to the room and lay on the bed, now thinking about Wei Muyu's words, she was really wrong, fortunately she was not discovered......
Youlan Palace, Autumn Tea Pavilion.
Mrs. Cen was having dinner, and Liuyun on the side had nothing to do, so she told what she had seen and heard this morning.
I heard that a palace person sneaked into the Huilan Palace, which made Mrs. Cen very concerned, but there are two places to go in the Huilan Palace, one is Mrs. Zhen's Xianglan Pavilion, and the other is the Liuli Pavilion of Yuliangren, where did this small palace person go?
"Liuyun, let people pay more attention to the Huilan Palace in the future, I want to know who went to the Huilan Palace and where they went."
"Yes."
"Also, is there any news about Dou Yifang?"
"I heard that Dou Liangren is practicing in Baiyun Temple, and there is nothing else to do."
Mrs. Cen was very concerned about Dou Yifang's actions, after all, she was the one who framed Dou Yifang, for fear that Dou Yifang would come back and seek revenge on her.
Recently, when she was getting along with Liu Heng, she noticed that Liu Heng had been obsessed with Dou Yifang, so it can be seen that Dou Yifang would not stay in Baiyunguan all the time.
After breakfast, Mrs. Cen went to Yalan Palace as usual to greet the queen. At this time, the ladies had already sat down in the Ya'an Palace, and Mrs. Cen thought that she was the last to arrive, and after a glance, she found that she couldn't see Wei Muyu.
"My sister asks the queen's sister to say goodbye, and the queen's sister is blessed with gold."
Queen Chen bowed slightly, "Sit down!" ”
Mrs. Cen thanked her and sat down in her place. As soon as she took her seat, Wei Muyu came.
Similarly, Wei Muyu came to Queen Chen and knelt down to say goodbye. But Queen Chen deliberately made things difficult and ignored them for a long time, so Wei Muyu had to bow all the time.
All the concubines could see that Queen Chen was deliberately making things difficult, and some people gloated in their hearts, such as Biliangren; Some watched coldly, such as Mrs. Jane and Mrs. Cen.
There was one person who was willing to speak for Wei Muyu, "Sister, Yuliang has been inviting An for a long time...... Mrs. Han said.
"Oh, Sister Yu, hurry up, I was thinking about things just now...... " Queen Chen didn't have a hint of apology in her words.
Wei Muyu still looked cold, she didn't care at all, and she didn't express any gratitude to Mrs. Han, and walked to her place by herself.
Queen Chen looked at everyone with a smile and said, "It's been a while since everyone has been together like this. Now that everyone is here, let's talk about some things in the palace recently!! The main palace found that the rules in this palace seemed to be a little loose......"
The concubines were silent.
"Don't think that this palace is sad and sad, so you don't know anything." As she spoke, Queen Chen glanced at Mrs. Cen. During the period of her loss of her son, the place where the king went the most was Mrs. Cen's Autumn Tea Pavilion. Mrs. Cen received more favor than Wei Muyu.
Madame Cen knew that Queen Chen was dissatisfied with her, not only because she had taken away the favor of the king, but also because Queen Chen suspected that she was the real culprit who killed Liu Yi. But she behaved calmly, as if she were an outsider.
"There are two things to say in this palace today, the first is to let you strengthen the discipline of your own palace people. Second, the people in the palace are thin, and everyone has nothing to do, so the palace and the concubine have been summed up, and they want to add servants to the king's draft. In addition to the show girls sent from outside the palace, if there are palace maids with good character in each palace now, they can also be recommended. Do you all understand? ”
The crowd nodded.
"Is there anything else you have to say?" After waiting for a while, no one spoke, and Queen Chen let them all disperse.
The matter of the draft soon spread throughout the harem, and as soon as the news came out, several families were happy and a few were sad. The sad thing is that those concubines who have not been favored, and the joy is that the palace maids have seen the hope of soaring.
Brother Liuli's palace maids gathered together to talk and laugh, and everyone exchanged various experiences that were favored by the king, looking forward to a better life after becoming a mother.
When Han Lian saw this, he persuaded them to disperse and go back to work with them. At this time, Butterfly Leaf came out and said to her, "The master has something to look for you!" ”
Han Lian walked into the house and saw Wei Muyu, "What does the master command?" ”
"You've heard about the King Medicine draft, right?"
"I know a little bit about it."
"How about I recommend you to the king?"
Han Lian seemed to have anticipated what she was going to say, so she wasn't surprised at all. She said lightly: "The master's kindness, the slave and maid understand it." It's just that the slave doesn't want to run. ”
Wei Muyu was surprised, "Why? ”
What did the woman who entered the palace for? Isn't it just to be favored by the king? Wei Muyu didn't understand why Han Lian refused. Did she think I was testing her and deliberately refused?
But Wei Muyu didn't really want to recommend Han Lian, she just thought that even if Han Lian became the king's woman, she wouldn't be favored for too long. And it can also sell Dou Yi's house for a favor, why not do it.
"Why?" Wei Muyu is very similar to know what she thinks.
Han Lian said indifferently: "The slave maid has a mediocre background, except for serving people, she has no other strengths, even if she is favored by the king by chance, it is just a flash in the pan." In the second half of his life, he may spend the rest of his life in the cold, what is the difference between this and being beaten into the cold palace? There was a hint of bitterness in his words.
Wei Muyu thought to herself: I didn't expect her to be a little self-aware......
