Chapter 56: King Chu's Birthday
"Concubine Niangniang, it was all the concubine's fault in the past, and if you offend the concubine, the concubine really knows that she is wrong!"
In the house, the concubine was kneeling in front of Zheng Yinghuan and begging for mercy with regret, she knew what she had done wrong, and now she really regretted it, and she knelt on the ground and kowtowed with her body that had just given birth.
"You know you're wrong, huh?" Zheng Yinghuan admired all this from above, "Then you tell this palace, what is wrong with you?" ”
"It's the concubine who shouldn't be presumptuous in front of the mother, shouldn't show off in front of the mother, shouldn't be such a careless and offended mother, the concubine really regrets it now, if time can go back, the concubine must not dare to be presumptuous in front of the mother!"
The pear blossoms crying of the pavilion concubine bring rain, if Fang Cai is sad because the child is gone, then at this moment it is more of a panic, panicking about how he will live in the future.
Now that I have offended the concubine, I am afraid that she will really not be able to live in the harem in the future, so if you can beg for mercy at this moment, please beg for mercy.
"That's it." Zheng Yinghuan squatted down and pinched the chin of the pavilion concubine fiercely, "You have been with the palace for so many years, you should know what kind of character the palace is, you are a little smart, and you know that you are kowtowing hard in front of the palace and begging for mercy, but do you think it is useful?" ”
Zheng Yinghuan let go of her hand fiercely, and the pavilion concubine fell heavily to the ground, and her already weak body was even worse, and she felt that her stomach hurt terribly.
But the concubine couldn't care about the pain on her body at the moment, and knew that the concubine Niangniang might have already hated her.
"I beg my mother to spare my life, for the sake of the fact that the concubine has done things for the mother for so many years, spare the concubine this time! The concubine will listen to the words of the mother honestly in the future, and she will never dare to have her own thoughts again! ”
The pavilion concubine kowtowed heavily on the ground, and every time she knocked it, she felt the pain in her body weigh a point.
The most painful thing is the heart, but the child is gone, His Majesty has changed so quickly, and he has never even comforted himself, some are just so indifferent and ruthless.
"Pavilion, you saw it clearly just now, Your Majesty doesn't care about you, Your Majesty only cares about the child in your belly, your child is gone, do you still want to imagine being able to get Your Majesty's favor?"
Zheng Yinghuan ridiculed with relief, just to let the pavilion concubine see clearly what she thought was the reason for the favor she had received over the past few days!
These days, she has picked out the best things to give to the pavilion concubines every day, do you really think that she is doing it willingly, and she is not going to do it for His Majesty.
The pavilion concubine didn't speak, but the tears couldn't stop flowing, she saw it, she understood, she already felt that her heart was stabbed hard!
"Everyone is a sister, this palace just can't bear to see you immersed in these loves, I want to wake you up, don't be so stupid in the future!"
Zheng Yinghuan couldn't help laughing, in fact, not only the pavilion concubine, wasn't Xie Ruyan so stupid back then?
She was just a trick for an aunt, and Xie Ruya was so stupid that she wanted to make trouble in the cold palace.
At that time, Xie Ruya would not think that His Majesty would thoroughly investigate this matter because of her actions, it is impossible, how can it be, His Majesty is already annoyed by these battles in the harem.
Moreover, Xie Ruya's original behavior was undoubtedly challenging His Majesty's authority, and His Majesty naturally pushed the boat to let Xie Ruya go to the cold palace!
The pavilion concubine collapsed on the ground and couldn't speak in pain, she didn't know how things had come to this point, obviously he still had a child in his belly yesterday, and His Majesty was so gentle and fond of her.
It's just a day apart, it's the difference between cloud and mud, why give him such a big blow!
"At the beginning, you dared to pretend in front of the Queen Mother, at that time, did you ever think that there would be today, do you think that this palace is really so easy to deal with!"
Zheng Yinghuan slapped the concubine hard, she was originally a calculating person, if anyone offended her, then she must take revenge fiercely.
At this moment, she will feel satisfied, the pavilion concubine has finally paid the price she deserves, all this is what she deserves, don't blame her for being too ruthless.
The concubine could only cover her swollen face, the pain in her body had long been unbearable, and now the blows in her heart one after another made her whole spirit collapse.
Who is to blame, who is to blame for all this?
She has been silent in the harem for so many years, and when she has a child, she just wants to feel what it is like to be pampered, and she just wants to experience the taste of being pampered.
didn't expect this dream to be so short, and she had already woken up from this dream before she could fully understand what it was like.
After waking up from this dream, there will be no more such moments in your life, and you will be in the dark forever.
"You can enjoy it here, you deserve it!"
Zheng Yinghuan left a sentence and left, he was very satisfied with tonight's events, very satisfied.
…
"Mother, doesn't my father plan to find out the matter clearly, so he punished the lady like this?"
Chu Xin was dissatisfied, but there was a faint feeling in his heart that this was indeed the case, wasn't her father like this?
I don't even look closely at what things look like, I just think it's good to have a satisfactory explanation.
I thought she had stolen Concubine Zheng's charcoal, but in fact, how could it be, how could she get the concubine's charcoal, but my father just didn't believe it.
It's not so much that you don't believe it, it's better to say that you don't care, if Chu Yi is wronged, then the father will definitely investigate it thoroughly, right?
Yes, definitely, Chu Yi is her favorite princess, she has already seen it.
"This matter is not bad, but it has been downgraded, and I think Your Majesty is like this for the sake of the Queen Mother's face."
Xie Ruya sighed helplessly, compared with her own situation at the beginning, it is really much better now, but she has suffered such a big loss inexplicably, who can swallow this breath?
Zheng Yinghuan will do his best to achieve such a means, which was like this eight years ago, and is still like this eight years later.
"Okay, Xin'er, mother knows that you feel sorry for the lady in your heart, but at this time, only we can endure it first, it will be Your Majesty's birthday soon, and the people of Northern Qi and Southern Liang will come to congratulate, you must be obedient and don't make any mistakes!"
Xie Ruyan touched Chu Xin's head worriedly, this is a big deal.
Chu Xin must learn all the rules well within this period of time, so as not to make any mistakes in front of everyone.
"I will!"
Chu Xin nodded vigorously, the rules in the palace are indeed complicated and numerous, she will definitely learn everything one by one, and she will definitely not embarrass her mother
It was already late at night, Xie Ruya had already fallen asleep after working for so long, and Chu Xin had sneaked out alone.
Fortunately, the Zhongcui Palace where they live is relatively remote, and not many people will notice it at all, she just wants to find someone to talk to and relieve the depression in her heart, so she thought of Xiao Zhi.
When I went to the courtyard of the cold palace, I didn't see anyone, Chu Xin didn't want to come in vain, so he got out of the small dog hole and ran directly to Nanyuan.
"Xiao Zhi!"
The door in the South Garden was hidden, so Chu Xin pushed the door directly and entered, and saw a faint light in the house.
"How did you get here?"
Xiao Zhi heard movement outside, and immediately came out, but he didn't expect that the person who came over was actually Chu Xin.
Xiao Zhi pulled Chu Xin to sit down on the steps on the side, he couldn't tell what it was like, who was thinking about him, but he didn't expect this person to come over immediately.
"Concubine Ting Niangniang had a miscarriage tonight, and all the evidence found out that Concubine Shu Niangniang did it, and her father has demoted her to a nobleman."
Chu Xin said aggrievedly, how could such a gentle and good lady Niangniang do such a thing?
But my father would have seriously investigated it, and so easily convicted the lady, just as he had stolen the charcoal fire that had convicted him in the first place
Xiao Zhi didn't speak, he already knew that such a thing would happen, how could Chu Yi and Concubine Zheng allow Concubine Ting to successfully give birth to a child in her belly?
"As long as the lady is fine, this score can be lowered or raised."
Xiao Zhi scratched his head and could only comfort him like this, he didn't even dare to look at Chu Xin's eyes.
That's probably how it feels, right?
"That's all there is to it."
Chu Xin hung her head sadly, in fact, she knew what it was like to be wronged, and she also knew the grievance of His Majesty who was so decisive in convicting people after being wronged.
"Concubine Zheng has always been loved by the King of Chu and has the right to be in charge of the harem, you and Concubine Jing should be low-key, don't anger her."
I really wanted to say something, but I didn't know how to comfort him, and after Xiao Zhi said this, he felt that it was really useless.
If you don't provoke others, can you be let go?
It's impossible, as long as Concubine Zheng Guifei looks at them unpleasantly, some means are to clean them up.
"I will persuade my mother to restrain her temper, and I understand these truths."
Chu Xin lowered his head and said in a slightly choked tone, in fact, how could they not understand these truths? this
I've been putting up with it, but it's still the result.
"Don't cry."
Xiao Zhi patted Chu Xin's shoulder distressedly, he understood the feeling of being wronged and bullied best.
"By the way, my mother told me that my father's birthday banquet will be three months later, and Northern Qi will also send someone over at that time, and my father should also let you come out to meet Northern Qi's relatives."
Chu Xin wiped a handful of tears, and looked at Xiao Zhi with bright eyes.
After so many years in a foreign country, I should be happy to finally be able to meet my relatives in Northern Qi, right?
But Xiao Zhi's expression was still faint, and he didn't have any thoughts about this matter.
"I don't have any relatives in Northern Qi, no matter who I send over, I won't be happy."
Xiao Zhi smiled bitterly, he stared at Chu Xin's bright eyes for a long time, as if every time he was unhappy, Chu Xin would cry, and his eyes would be bright like this after crying.
"Why?"
Chu Xin said curiously, this reaction turned out that Xiao Zhi hadn't told her about the past in Northern Qi, but maybe she didn't have many happy memories, right?
"My biological mother is just a slave, so my life in Northern Qi is not very good," Xiao Zhi lowered his head, not wanting to say more and not wanting to recall that dark memory.
"It's okay," Chu Xin touched Xiao Zhi's hand, "I understand your feelings, I will accompany you." ”
"Okay."
Xiao Zhi smiled.
