Chapter 1184: Old Palace
In May of the first year of revival, Penglai Hall changed to a new owner.
Since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there are no explicit provisions in the palace where the queen lives, but the Penglai Palace is the most important hall in the inner palace because it is the most important hall of the inner palace because of the same central axis as the Zichen Hall of the Emperor's Inner Dynasty, and it is generally the residence of the queen, of course, there are special cases - when Emperor Mingzong, the emperor and queen are not in harmony, and the Penglai Palace is occupied by the concubine, and there is Dezong, since the death of the Yuan Dynasty, and the Penglai Palace has also been vacant, which is the queen of the queen later, and He Ye's biological mother is also Xiao Cuihou and has not been allowed to live in the Penglai Palace.
However, the queen mother of the past dynasties, most of them lived in the Chang'an Palace, and even the Empress Wen who had been in the court did not have a special exception, only the current Empress Dowager Wei was an exception, when Emperor Renzong, she lived in the Hanxiang Hall for a longer time, Renzong died, and finally got her wish to live in the Penglai Palace.
To He Ye's ascension, there was no queen at that time, and she was not in a hurry to let the Empress Dowager Wei move, Empress Dowager Wei once thought that He Ye still paid attention to the appearance of "mother and son filial piety", and did not care about these subsections, in fact, she had lost her authority, and it didn't matter where she lived, but Empress Dowager Wei had a deep obsession with Penglai Palace, and if she could continue to occupy it, it would be considered comforting.
However, He Ye is not so generous, since Penglai Hall is the main seat of the harem, most of the queens take this as a matter of course, of course he does not want to be wronged by Eleven Niang, and as early as when preparing for the ceremony, he informed Empress Dowager Wei that she should "let Xian".
Of course, it is impossible for him to follow his brother's example, and openly let the inner court with the palace for the queen mother to live in, and the Chang'an Palace, which has been vacant for many years, was finally swept out, so that the queen mother can live here for a long time.
In the Penglai Palace this night, in the queen's bedroom, the dragon and phoenix red candles shine high, and the mandarin ducks and Luo Shu make waves, it is a joy after a love, people embrace each other in the dead of night, and the moon is bright and the wind is quiet.
Eleven Niang closed her eyes, listening to the slow breath of the person next to her pillow, pretending to be asleep, but she was awake motionless.
Today she got an explanation, but she didn't believe what He Ye said on Gao Ji was the real mystery.
He made such a big deal of trouble that she couldn't believe that the purpose was so simple - just to make up for the shortcomings of the newlywed and make this post-canon unique and different.
She couldn't even believe that He Ye was planning to make it easier and smoother, taking advantage of Empress Dowager Wei's still fortunate mentality to take over the affairs of the harem.
It must be, He Ye must have deeper intentions, but she racked her brains, and it was difficult for her to clarify the clues immediately.
At this moment, she was so affectionately embraced by the emperor, surrounded and entangled by his body, and his ears were his heartbeat that did not lose strength despite falling asleep, their posture was so affectionate, but Eleven Niang still couldn't let her guard down, but for some reason, what lingered in her mind was still earlier, when he was emotional, she forced her to still be worthy of her name, and the fierce gasp seemed to be ironing in her ears until this time, when he almost hissed her earlobe, and said, "Yiyi, if today, only you are in front of me, You can call me by my first name."
Obviously, I didn't invest in it, but why was my mind blank at the time?
Instinctively, what kind of response was given to him, she didn't even feel it.
Eleven Niang had to admit that she seemed, maybe, it seemed, that she had really been shaken, and she might be really afraid that between her and He Ye, she was getting closer to the final dagger, so she would rather suspect that He Ye was hypocritical, rather than believe that it was possible that he was really sincere.
She can't be shaken, she can't be soft-hearted, and in the last step, she can't make any mistakes.
So she can only be lucky-
Fourteen Lang's temptation made Lu Li openly ask for Pei's former mansion, on the one hand, he hinted to He Ye that he missed the old people and things very much, and he didn't regard Pei's as a crime at all, and more importantly, he was startling the snake! Of course, it was Empress Dowager Wei who was alarmed, so that Empress Dowager Wei took the initiative to mention the old case and warned He Ye never to tarnish Emperor Renzong's reputation.
He Ye and Renzong have a deep brotherhood, he even looks at Emperor Renzong's affection, and intends to tolerate Empress Dowager Wei's retirement, and does not intend to kill the killer to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, of course he will care about the reputation of Emperor Renzong, and there is no need to overturn Renzong's judgment for an old case.
But of course He Ye will no longer condone Empress Dowager Wei's comeback and exercise conspiracy and trickery to subvert the regime, so once Empress Dowager Wei takes advantage of the brotherhood between He Yan and He Ye to divide the trust of monarchs and ministers, then looking through Pei Zheng's old case is not only about Emperor Renzong, who has collapsed, He Zhan's plan is gambling, when Pei Zheng's case is provoked again, and even Empress Dowager Wei takes the initiative to make waves, the truth is already related to the stability of the throne, endangering the military and political power in He Ye's hands, and it is no longer just for Pei Zheng and the two clans. It is the fundamental opposition between the remnants of the Queen Mother and Lu Li and other close ministers of the Son of Heaven, and He Ye must choose between the two.
This plan is aimed at the emperor's heart, the bet is the gain and loss of interests, there is not so much right and wrong, and the connection between brothers and sisters will also become a joke in front of power, the more He Ye cares about himself, the greater the chance of winning Eleven Niang.
There is another possibility, that is, He Ye is indeed the master of Mingda, his behavior is bright and fair, he is unwilling to ignore the reputation of Emperor Renzong for the sake of interests, and he is really a person who values love and righteousness, even if this is the case, when Lu Li can indeed prove that the Pei Zheng clan is innocent, as an emperor, how can he bear to see that he is loyal and wronged, and he is condemned by later generations as a traitor and thief, firmly nailed to the pillar of shame, and subjected to verbal criticism? Emperor Renzong's reputation is important, but he is indeed gullible and treacherous, cowardly by nature and has to succumb to the Wei Hou Party, unjustly kill Zhongliang, and ambush the community, is it because he is the emperor, should he not admit his mistakes, and should be advertised as "good and loyal"?
The Holy Ruler should not be selfish, but should return justice to the world.
If He Ye is enough to be called a saint, then he should not be tarnished because of Emperor Renzong's reputation, regardless of loyalty and goodness.
But there are many mediocre people in the world, and there are few sages, just as the great evildoers are not everywhere, but many people hide their own desires.
Eleven Niang can't bet on the heart of the sage, so she has to deal with the imperial technique.
She hopes that she can avoid fighting and make her goal come naturally, so whether He Ye is based on the wisdom of a sage or the emperor's mental technique, it doesn't really matter to her, the important thing is that they can avoid the desperate path of turning against each other, at least no one can live up to anyone, even if they can't be a loving couple, at least they can be monarchs and ministers, and for Chi'er, they are respectful parents.
She doesn't want Chi'er to carry a heavy burden, like He Ye, or like her, Chi'er shouldn't choose between her parents, struggling and suffering.
He Ye, what I want is not to be illustrious, and I have never even thought of vows and alliances, you don't have to put me first in current affairs, what I ask for is nothing more than that you can promise to be Pei Zheng Zhaoxue, as long as you choose to be side by side with me in this matter, I have no other luxury, I will spend the rest of my life in the palace, let it be a conspiracy and treacherous fight, I will not be discouraged, and even if it is, in the future, if you violate the promise of Danfengmen, I will not have any complaints.
So I beg you, choose carefully.
With this thought in her heart, she added a little strength to the palm of her hand, Eleven Niang was passively embraced by the person next to the pillow, one arm, over the man's strong waist, under the palm, it was the man's warm and dry body, and because she was only a slight movement, it seemed to alarm the sleeping person, and I don't know if he was asleep or awake, only lowered his chin, and gently kissed her forehead, and it was not removed for a long time.
Eleven Niang didn't dare to toss and turn, but she still didn't sleep all night, there was no rooster singing in the deep palace, and there were heavy curtains hanging in this bedroom, and there was no morning light through, who didn't know that the stars moved and rose, but He Ye first volunteered, why did he "have a short spring night" and "delay the early dynasty"? He didn't even need the palace eunuchs to enter to call him in, he was spontaneously sober, and let go of his arms lightly, as if he didn't want to alarm the people next to him to get up early with him.
Eleven Niang was weak-hearted, worried that she was pretending to sleep and was debunked by He Ye, she simply opened her eyes, and planned to call the palace people waiting outside the tent to serve first, but Her Majesty the Emperor who knew far beyond mortals immediately found that she was in a state of malaise, with a faint bruise on her eyelids, but she was only tied to a piece of chezi, the slender jade arm and exquisite collarbone were visible at a glance, one side of the jade neck, the kiss marks were like cherry blossoms, Your Majesty only felt that someone had set a fire in his chest, and almost did not burn the idea of the Ming Jun into ashes.
The heart moved at will, and sure enough, he pressed the beauty under his body again, a long kiss was extremely fierce, but in the end he still held himself, the young and powerful emperor buried his face in the warm fragrant nephrite and sighed: "No wonder the king is rarely diligent in government, but he smells a lot of red faces, you say that if we are still in the Jin Palace, why should I get up earlier than the chicken dog?" ”
After complaining with such emotion, his fingertips crossed Eleven Niang's eyelids: "Didn't sleep well last night?" ”
"I'm not very comfortable with this palace, and I actually made it difficult to choose a seat, maybe I was too cautious here back then, and even triggered a turmoil, and it was almost not destroyed in the court." Eleven Niang had already thought of the reason.
He Ye also remembered that when his brother was alive, the Penglai Hall was like a forbidden place, once because Xie Ying was nowhere to be found, Eleven Niang was allowed to come here to search, but he stepped into the trap laid by the Queen Mother and Concubine Xie Shu, because of the anger of Renzong, he had to go to the court, and he was almost tortured to extract a confession, and blamed himself: "It was my negligence, I didn't expect you to live here, at that time, I only cared about provoking the Queen Mother, thinking that if she was forced to move out of this place, she must have smoke, and did not consider your wishes, you don't like this place, just choose another place to live, It's a big deal to leave this place vacant, and there are no excuses, such as respecting Pei Hou. ”
Eleven Niang: ......
Respecting herself, this is too ridiculous, and she doesn't want to fulfill He Yan's "deep love", although Penglai Hall is related to her previous life, it is her old place, and it is also the place where she died, but she does not make waves because of this, where is it worth avoiding taboos and causing trouble?
"This place occupies the position of the master of the inner palace, how can I not know that the saint has a hard work? Although I was a little uncomfortable, I was even more grateful for the grace of the Holy One, and after three or two days, I got used to it, and it was not worth the trouble. ”
"Yiyi, there is no need to be reluctant in front of me, let alone be aggrieved."
"This place is the closest to the Zichen Palace, and I don't want to be alienated from the Holy One." Eleven Niang had no choice but to adopt a sweet approach.
He Ye really smiled: "Okay, then I will accompany you to adapt again, but I didn't sleep well last night, you don't have to rush to get up early, Jiang Yu and so on, you just have to sleep for a while, over there in Chang'an Palace, there is no need to be busy greeting him, even if it is immediately dismantled, it doesn't matter, what kind of mother and son are filial, all civil and military officials know that this is a scene, I can't be really a filial son, of course the queen can't be intimate with the queen mother, the queen mother is still pampered with fine clothes and jade food, and the imperial history of the official has no reason to impeach, Yi Yi doesn't have to toss himself because of the one in Chang'an Palace. ”
After speaking, he rushed to hit the jade and motioned for the palace people to enter the palace to serve and freshen up, and Shi Niang watched him lift the curtain and come out, secretly relieved.
