Chapter 478: Fear of Retribution
"When the slave maid went, the young lady was vomiting blood, and it seemed that she was afraid that she would not be able to do it......" When the slave heard the lady's angry reprimand, she trembled all over her body, and quickly replied.
"What did you say?" When Li Hui'er heard the slave's words, she was obviously shocked, and she screamed: "Go and bring me the white jade beads, bring them over!" Her won't die, go! ”
The maid had never seen Li Hui'er's panicked appearance, she was so frightened that her whole body trembled, and she hurriedly responded: "Yes, the slave maid will go." ”
Li Hui'er was holding the handmaid's hand at the moment, unwilling to let go at all, it hurt, it hurt, it hurt, the pain in his head that he had never had before, and his eyes were even more blurry, from the beginning he could vaguely see the figure of the servant girl next to him, and now the gradual darkness followed.
The pain that she had never had brought brought was also that she had never been afraid, making her so afraid of Bai Yuzhu for the first time, although she knew that this was Bai Yuzhu's revenge on them, but she was still very afraid, very afraid of dying here, very afraid that the power was about to be held in the palm of her hand, but it was suddenly taken away.
She hates Bai Yuzhu, the reason is still the same as before, as long as she sees Bai Yuzhu, she thinks of her dead and noble and beautiful mother, as long as she sees Bai Yuzhu, she thinks of her daughter who was blocked by her, as long as she sees Bai Yuzhu, she hates her for insulting her identity......
She hated Bai Yuzhu very much, but at this moment, she was afraid of her, afraid that her poison would poison all of them, afraid that she would die before her, if this was Bai Yuzhu's way of revenge on them, she admitted defeat, really admitted defeat, because nothing and no life is more important!
"That...... Madame ...... "The maidservant knocked on the door of Bai Yuzhu's boudoir, and it was Zi'er who opened the door, and Zi'er had a gloomy face when she saw her.
When Zi'er saw that the person who came was the maidservant girl from before, she immediately said angrily: "You still dare to come!" Originally, Miss was asleep, and it was because of you that I woke up Miss, and now Miss is vomiting blood and fainting, do you want me to beat you to death! ”
The maidservant's face turned pale from fright by Zi'er's angry reprimand, and she said carefully: "No...... Slaves and maidservants are also ordered...... If I don't let the lady pass, Madame will kill me......"
"Bastard thing!" Zi'er shouted sharply, and said, "Is you important or is the eldest lady important?" It's a trivial matter to kill you, don't let anything happen to the eldest lady, you can't leave, and if you don't leave, I'll really find something to kill you. ”
"This ......" The slave maid was frightened by the fierce Zi'er and didn't dare to speak, and then hurriedly said: "Go, go immediately." ”
Zi'er had already turned around, picked up a pot of flowers from the flower stand at the door and seemed to be about to smash it at the maidservant, the frightened maid quickly ran away, she watched the maid being scared away and snorted coldly: "I'm not a vegetarian." ”
"Driven away?" Bai Yuzhu continued to play chess with Yeling, and she didn't even look at Zi'er and asked casually.
"Ah, Miss heard me." Zi'er sneered and said with a smile: "Drove away." ”
"Your voice is so loud, I can't hear it, just drive it away." Bai Yuzhu settled the sunspot in his hand, and said: "Zi'er, Ninghua, you two go to guard outside, no one will be allowed to come in, whoever dares to break in will do it directly." ”
"Yes." Ning Hua was not in the house, but his voice came.
Bai Yuzhu looked at the chess game, she chuckled and said, "Ye Ling, it's boring for me to let you do this......"
Ye Ling didn't say anything, just left the white piece sandwiched between his fingertips in the chess game......
Bai Qing and Li Hui'er in the general's mansion are worse than death, the prince in the palace knelt for three days and three nights, although even Mama quietly came over and brought knee pads, but his legs were still numb and did not feel the slightest, especially the cold at night made him feel as if his bones and blood were frozen, but he could only kneel like this, this is what he promised the imperial grandmother.
Emperor Feng Yuan came to the imperial study, he walked in front of the crown prince Feng Yehan, and first said angrily: "You forced your father to be three days and three nights, just for Bai Yuzhu alone, is it worth it?" ”
The prince was cold at night, and his clothes were frozen by the cold on his body, and he knelt in place without exhausting the rice and water, and never left.
Feng Yuan seemed to be really helpless, he said loudly: "Okay, you won the prince, you won, I will allow you to marry Bai Yuzhu as the crown princess, I am approved, come on, use my dragon chariot to send the prince back to the East Palace quickly, quickly announce the imperial doctor to show him, if the prince has a good one, I will let you be buried with you." ”
On the side, Gonggong Zhao hurriedly said: "The emperor is angry, and the slave will send His Royal Highness the Crown Prince back to the palace." After that, he hurriedly handed the little eunuch on the side a look, and the little eunuch hurriedly stepped forward to help the prince in the cold night.
Feng Yuan was angry and then powerless, and this was just seen by the ministers who followed, he looked at the moment when Zhao Gonggong helped the prince Feng Yehan onto his dragon chariot, and then Yu Guang glanced at the ministers around him, seeing the shock and complexity in the eyes of these ministers, he took a deep breath to calm himself down.
He knew that his decision would be known to the entire capital in an instant with these ministers leaving the palace, but at least it had achieved the effect they wanted.
The prince was cold in the warm dragon chariot, the little eunuch knelt beside him and gently rubbed his stiff and painful legs, his narrow phoenix eyes without the slightest emotion carried a trace of anger in his eyes after getting on the dragon chariot, but it was fleeting......
Since Empress Zhen quarreled with the Queen Mother in Shoude Palace, the news of Concubine Yue's miscarriage followed, which almost broke her, but fortunately, the emperor couldn't help but tell him everything the Queen Mother said to him, and her anger was alleviated a little, but, even so, she still fell ill, and she was angry that Bai Yuzhu became the crown princess.
On this day, she knew that it was the last day that the prince knelt in the imperial study, and she wanted to pick up the prince in person, but the sudden arrival of Concubine De and her physical discomfort made her lie on the soft couch.
This year's Concubine De is wearing a long skirt embroidered with light pink gold thread in the hibiscus flower palace brocade, wearing a golden jade agate step shake and a golden hairpin on the sky, and her face is graceful and luxurious with a little powder, she raised her eyes and looked at the emaciated and weak Queen Zhen who was leaning sideways on the soft couch in the phoenix robe, and she said respectfully: "The concubine asks the queen mother to say goodbye, and the queen mother is auspicious and healthy." ”
"What's the health, is it like being healthy now?" Empress Zhen glanced at Concubine De, said with a weak tone, and said with a slight pause: "No courtesy, sit down." ”
Concubine De straightened up at this time, and after she sat down on the chair opposite Queen Zhen, she said in a gentle and apologetic voice: "The concubine just said the wrong thing, and I ask the queen to forgive me." ”
"It's okay, but didn't Ben Hou say that he wouldn't use it to say goodbye these days? Why is Concubine De in such a hurry to come to see Benhou? Empress Zhen held her forehead with one hand and lightly placed the other on her chest, she raised her eyes and looked at the charming Concubine De and asked.
Concubine De said worriedly: "The concubine heard that the queen mother was sick, and specially brought the snow ginseng that the emperor had rewarded the concubine to the queen mother, although the concubine knew that there was everything in the queen's palace, but this was also a part of the concubine's heart." ”
"Concubine De is considerate, and she has always known that Concubine De has a heart." Empress Zhen looked directly at Concubine De and said weakly.
"The concubine is the slave of the queen's mother, and it is within her duty to worry about the queen's mother." Concubine De looked at Queen Zhen gently, paused slightly, and said softly: "If the concubine is not wrong, Niangniang will be angry with the prince again this time." ”
Concubine De's words made Queen Zhen's eyes instantly deep, she looked at Concubine De and said angrily: "Don't mention the prince in front of the queen again!" ”
Concubine De was slightly surprised when she saw Queen Zhen's reaction, and then she hesitated and said, "Actually, the concubine didn't want to disturb the queen's mother, but she ...... Just ......"
"If you have something to say, you don't have to say anything." When Queen Zhen saw Concubine De struggling, she said with a slightly cold face.
Concubine De looked at Queen Zhen and said, "Then the concubine said it directly, in fact, the concubine received a letter from Mrs. Shuoguo a few days ago......"
After a slight pause, she continued: "The queen mother knows that Mrs. Shuoguo's daughter Xue'er has been living in the palace of the concubine before, and the concubine also treats Xue'er as her own daughter. It's just that the old lady died suddenly, and the concubine never saw her after Xue'er returned to the General's Mansion. ”
"Lady Shuoguo wrote to you? If she wants to enter the palace, will anyone stop ......her?" Queen Zhen said angrily, and said, "What did she say in her letter?" ”
Concubine De saw that Empress Zhen took the initiative to ask Mrs. Shuoguo Li Hui'er, and she said softly: "Mrs. Shuoguo said that Bai Yuzhu would become the crown princess, and she originally planned to make Xue'er the crown princess, but the queen mother agreed to this matter, so she wrote a letter to let the concubine think about it, and the concubine ...... The concubine thought about it for several days, but she really couldn't think of a way, so she came to see the queen. ”
"Heh......" Empress Zhen looked at Concubine De and sneered after hearing this, she said with a hint of mockery in her eyes: "Concubine De has always been smart, can she be helpless?" Besides, Concubine De said that she treated Xue'er as her own daughter, so she still tried her best to meet the emperor or the queen mother to find a chance for Xue'er. ”
If she had a way, she wouldn't be lying in the gate of this Fengzao Palace, she herself was angry that Bai Yuzhu became the crown princess, what ability could she have to stop Bai Yuzhu from becoming the crown princess.
"This ...... It's not that the queen doesn't know that the concubines haven't seen the emperor for several months. Concubine De looked at Queen Zhen with an embarrassed face, paused slightly, and asked with an inquiring meaning: "Queen Mother, the concubine is helpless, what does the Queen Mother think the concubine should do?" ”
"If you can do it, you can do it, and if you can't do it, just say that you can't do it." When Empress Zhen saw that Concubine De, who had always been bold, was so docile, she became more guarded in her heart, and said: "No one can change what the Queen Mother approves, and Bai Yuzhu will be the crown princess of the East Palace in the future." ”
"That's ......" Concubine De nodded in agreement after hearing this, and after a while, she said: "Then the concubine will go and tell Mrs. Shuoguo that the concubine really can't help." ”
Empress Zhen didn't say anything, and the hall fell silent......
"By the way, the queen mother, the concubine still has something to ask the queen mother." Concubine De was the first to ask Empress Zhen.
