Chapter 94: Prey
After the Lantern Festival, it is ushered in a rare heavy snowfall.
Heavy snow fell for several days in a row, and it didn't clear until today.
"Niangniang, don't lie down, today Your Majesty went to the Royal Forest Garden to hunt, and I want to take you to relax. Why are you still in bed? ”
Zhiluo looked at Wei Huai, who was still lying on the bed, and sighed helplessly.
It's only my own mother who is so big-hearted that she doesn't take going to the Royal Forest Garden to heart. Today, I went to hunt in the Royal Forest Garden, not only the main mothers of each palace, but also the relatives of the emperor.
It's been more than a month, and the snow has stopped falling for several days outside, and the weather is rarely clear. Wei Huai'an wanted to lie in bed even more, and didn't want to get up from the warm and comfortable bed.
But......
Wei Huai'an grabbed a handful of his hair with a little irritability, and struggled to get up from the bed, letting Zhiluo tinker with himself.
She yawned, and began to regret in her heart why she couldn't think of scheduling the assassination of An Pinghou's people to this day.
On the night of the Lantern Festival, when Wei Huai'an was arranging the plot for An Pinghou, she considered that it would be too strange to rashly assassinate the queen in the harem anyway, so she pondered for a moment and quickly found a suitable time for them.
According to Jun Zeci's custom, he would go hunting in the Royal Forest Garden after the Lantern Festival, and in addition to the concubines in the harem, some important ministers were also among them.
When they are outdoors, they have a much greater success rate.
Moreover, Wei Huai'an can naturally be injured in front of Jun Zeci without any strangeness.
But when it really came to this day, Wei Huai'an began to regret why he didn't change the time - it was really painful to get up early in winter.
In order to ensure that there was enough space for the emperor to hunt, the Imperial Forest was built on the outskirts of the palace at a certain distance.
Wei Huai'an: They took about an hour to arrive at the Imperial Forest Garden.
By the time they arrived at the Imperial Garden, many ministers and their families were already sitting in their seats. At this time, I saw a woman being helped out of the carriage by others, and involuntarily looked in the direction of the woman.
However, when they saw the clothes she was wearing, everyone suddenly realized that this was the recently rumored Wei Huai'an, the Wei queen who "died three years ago and returned to the palace three years later".
Probably for the convenience of the event, Wei Huai'an did not wear the phoenix robe that he usually attended on such a big scene today, and the clothes were not as cumbersome as in the past, but more concise. But no matter how simple it is, the queen's clothes will still be embroidered with gold silk phoenix tattoos on her body.
Everyone knelt down one after another and saluted in unison: "Respectfully invite the queen mother Jin'an." ”
An Pinghou is naturally among them.
Thinking of today's plan, he couldn't help but want to observe what kind of person Empress Wei was. This is not because he fears that today's plan will not succeed. On the contrary, An Pinghou felt that his plan was perfect.
And......
There was a faint look of contempt in his eyes. And what about the Queen? Not an ordinary woman's family? He never thought it would be a great deal to deal with someone who had been trapped in a boudoir since childhood. The last time Empress Wei was able to make the decision to die, it was probably the Wei family's idea.
An Pinghou now wants to observe Empress Wei's expression, just to see what kind of character Empress Wei is through these details. If the other party had a peaceful personality, he would not use people to stimulate Empress Wei, but would do it differently; Of course, if the other party is the kind of person who explodes at a point and can't hold his breath, then it can't be better. They were able to proceed directly to the original plan.
"Let's be flat."
Empress Wei's voice came from not far away, her voice was gentle, and it seemed to reveal a bit of randomness.
Marquis An Ping then raised his head and pretended to glance at Empress Wei casually.
Empress Wei's right hand was gently held by the maidservant, and her smart eyes just glanced at them casually, and then withdrew her eyes, looking a little casual. And this is casual...... An Pinghou is very sure that it must be brought about by the arrogance and indifference of those in high positions.
After realizing that Wei Huai'an was the kind of character who didn't take anyone seriously, An Pinghou breathed a sigh of relief in his heart at the moment. Great, it looks like it can go as planned.
According to Empress Wei's arrogant personality of not taking everyone present in her eyes, when she faces the provocation of others, she must be angry and do something excessive, right?
An Pinghou quietly showed a smile.
What he didn't know was that Empress Wei, who was full of prey, slowly looked in his direction at this time, also showed a meaningful smile, lightly tapped his temple with his index finger, and whispered in distress: "It's really annoying." Zhiluo, why do you say that prey like to throw themselves into the net? ”
Although Zhiluo didn't know why she suddenly asked like this, she remembered a sentence that Wei Huai'an often said in Fengyi Palace, so she asked: "Niangniang wants to say that prey usually thinks they are hunters, so it is easier to take the bait?" ”
Wei Huai'an smiled but did not speak.
…… True hunters all come in the form of prey.
Zhiluo had long been accustomed to this feeling that he could not keep up with Wei Huai'an's train of thought, and seeing that Wei Huai'an had no idea of continuing to speak, he just led her to a position above.
Who knew that Wei Huai'an had just taken his seat, but he heard a crisp and pleasant voice next to him come over: "Queen Mother, you are finally here." ”
Hearing this, Wei Huai'an couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. It had been a long time since she had heard anyone speak to her in such a tone. This tone is clearly disgusted that she came too slowly.
Malice doesn't count, it just doesn't sound like the words of a smart person, or more like the words of a child.
Wei Huai'an looked at the source of the sound. I saw a girl about sixteen years old wearing a pink dress, with collagen on her face, and her eyes looking at her, looking innocent and cute.
Zhiluo knew that his mother might not know who it was, so he leaned into her ear and whispered: "Niangniang, this is the child left by the eldest princess who died early - the county lord of Changning." Since the death of the eldest princess, the county lord of Changning has been raised by the empress. ”
Raised under the knees of the Queen Mother? This looks ...... It's not like it was raised by the Queen Mother. As the final winner of the last palace fight, how could the queen mother raise such a stupid and sweet child?
Wait a minute...... Wei Huai'an thought of it, and his eyes became subtle. If she remembers correctly, the eldest princess doesn't seem to have been born to the Queen Mother?
Ah......h
Wei Huai'an looked the Changning County Lord up and down, and it was even more subtle, and he always felt that he seemed to have guessed something.
The Queen Mother shouldn't have deliberately raised the county lord of Changning like this, right?
I found an artist's wife to make a super nice cover!! It hasn't been reviewed yet, but it's really good-looking!
