I thought I would live in this hellish place on the frontier for the rest of my life, and never see a day out.

Fortunately, this kind of day did not last long.

When our family settled down in the frontier, the Queen Mother's people came to the frontier to look for me, saying that they wanted to bring me back to the capital.

I looked at the people who came, and finally felt that there was hope for the future.

My father originally disagreed, but for some reason, he never spoke out again. And my mother, on the other hand, wanted me to get out of that ghost place and go far away.

"Mother, don't worry! As soon as I go this time, my daughter will definitely try her best to take you all back to the capital! Before leaving, I promised beside my mother's bed, "Since Murong Yuqing can't be trusted, then you can only rely on me!" ”

My mother listened to my words and couldn't stop nodding, "Xiu'er, you have to take care of yourself." ”

"Hmmm! It's the same with mothers, take care! Be sure to take care of yourself and wait for me to send someone to pick you up. ”

My mother smiled and touched my head, "Silly girl, as long as you live well, my mother has no regrets in this life." ”

……

After a period of rapid work, I finally returned to the capital.

It's just that I finally came back again, but my mood is very different from before.

I came to the palace to greet the Queen Mother, who was very affectionate to me. Not only did he order someone to prepare good clothes and jewelry for me, but he also kept calling Xiu'er and Xiu'er very loving.

Less than two days after entering the palace, the Queen Mother sent someone to pass the word, saying that I should dress up and accompany her to Kunning Palace.

Kunning Palace, that is the palace of today's queen mother.

Heh, Murong Yuqing, are we finally going to meet again?

The clothes given to me by the Queen Mother are very beautiful and fit, and any one of them can show my graceful figure to the fullest.

I got dressed and looked at my face in front of the bronze mirror. Although it is not as good as Murong Yuqing's alluring country and city, it is also a shy flower in the closed moon, bright and beautiful.

My chin is slightly raised, and I am full of vigor in my flamboyance, and I am really young.

Murong Yuqing, you are four years older than me.

You're nineteen and I'm fifteen.

You're a mother of two, but I'm still young.

I couldn't compare to you before, but I'm still young! Now, after all, I am still dead in the palace. So, I want to see if you're good or I'm strong!

……

I followed the Queen Mother to Kunning Palace, the splendid decoration in Kunning Palace is very different from the small mansion on the border.

Murong Yuqing is now more and more charming, and the sense of elegance and nobility on his body is even worse than when he was in the General's Mansion.

I looked at her like this, and my nose was a little sour.

Murong Yuqing, you are living so comfortably here. Have you ever thought about it...... Father and brother!

"The folk girl has seen the queen's mother, the mother is a thousand years old, a thousand years old."

I heard the queen mother say that when our family was exiled to the frontier, the emperor demoted his father to a concubine in order to prevent His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the eldest princess from being charged with their ancestors.

Therefore, I have nothing to do with Murong Yuqing and those two nephews who have never met! Now being able to call herself a people's daughter in front of Murong Yuqing is already inheriting the love of the Queen Mother.

Scold...... Unexpectedly, my father has served the court for most of his life, and now, he is not even a criminal minister.

"Look at how sensible this girl is." The Empress Dowager Xu saw that Murong Yuqing did not answer me, so she stepped forward affectionately and took my hand and praised me.

When I saw this, I hurriedly pretended to be well-behaved and said, "Sister...... Xiu'er misses you so much! As he spoke, he blinked, and squeezed out the big tears.

"Why are you here?" Murong Yuqing glanced at me and asked.

The tone is extremely cold.

When I heard this, I took a step back in fear, and I was even more pitiful...... Be...... I don't want to see Xiu'er......"

Seeing me like this, Murong Yuqing hurriedly interrupted me, "Nonsense! ”

This time, between the words, it is all pampering.

"My sister is happiest to see you at this time. It's just the current situation of our Murong family...... I really can't tolerate your willful nonsense.

Father and mother are on the frontier, if you sneak back...... It is to be criticized. With that, she stepped forward and touched her head.

However, I suddenly felt a pain in my scalp.

It turned out that it was the agate ring in Murong Yuqing's hand that hooked my hair, causing me to break a few hairs.

What a Murong Yuqing, he did this to me behind his back!

I was extremely disgusted with what she did, but I didn't dare to shout in front of the Queen Mother.

Although the Queen Mother seems to be good to me now, she also seems to feel very distressed about Murong Yuqing. Until I have figured out what role I play in the palace, I must not act rashly.

So, I could only endure her humiliation with tears in my eyes.

Fortunately, the Queen Mother quickly opened her mouth, "Okay, okay...... You sisters and sons should not cry or weep. ”

After that, he expressed to Murong Yuqing his regret that the general's mansion was exiled to the frontier. Later, he said that I was a woman who was not suitable for life in the frontier, so she took matters into her own hands and robbed me from it. In the name of forgiving my father's sins, let me enter the palace.

I listened to the Queen Mother's words and didn't speak.

As early as when I came back, the Queen Mother told me. said that in order to let Murong Yuqing not worry too much, it is best not to let her know that I have been to the frontier. I just said that it was the person who met the Queen Mother from the middle of the road, so I followed back.

Although I don't quite understand what the Queen Mother wants to do, I have no objection to this. Anyway, I just need people to come back. Nothing else.

I know that Murong Yuqing is very unhappy about this. But in front of the Queen Mother, she could only say thank you, "Thank you, Queen Mother, ......" Then, like a good sister, she smiled at me and said, "Xiu'er, thank the Queen Mother soon!" ”

I was slightly stunned, and then knelt down and bowed, "The folk girl has thanked the Queen Mother for saving her life!" ”

"Well, get up." The Queen Mother smiled, "Now that Yuxiu has entered the palace, I'm afraid it won't work if I don't have a name." Look at her, a mouthful of a folk girl calling herself, it's really distressing. ”

When I heard this, my heart trembled.

It has been two days since she entered the palace, and the Queen Mother has never mentioned her identity. Now that she is saying this in front of Murong Yuqing, what does she mean?

I couldn't guess, so I had to remain silent.

On the contrary, it was Murong Yuqing, who smiled very calmly, "It's still the queen mother who is thoughtful, so leave Xiu'er in Kunning Palace to serve." It just so happened that the two of us sisters hadn't seen each other for a long time, so I thought about it. ”

Stay in Kunning Palace to serve? When you're a maid? Murong Yuqing, don't think too beautiful!

Sure enough, her voice fell, and the Queen Mother rejected her. said that I had a special identity and couldn't hide in Kunning Palace. Otherwise, rumors will spread in the sixth house.

But if I go to another palace to be a slave, I feel very distressed. In addition, I am the queen's sister, how can there be a reason to let the queen's sister serve others?

I listened to the words of the Queen Mother, and it seemed to have a different meaning. So those who came and went also thought about it.

Could it be that the Queen Mother wants to lift me up as the little master?

It's just that...... Murong Yuqing has been living in the palace for many years, and what I can think of, she can naturally think of.

She saw that she couldn't keep me with her, and she couldn't send me to someone else's place. So, I had to speak softly, planning to use me as a favor, and by the way, to please the Queen Mother. It was said that I was young and impetuous. wants to send me to Cining Palace, sent by the Queen Mother.

After all, Xu is afraid that the Queen Mother will think that she is not good as a sister. So, he added, "When the opportunity is suitable in the future, Erchen will find a good family for her, and it will not be in vain to waste the queen mother's thoughts." ”

The Queen Mother listened to the words and did not speak again.

And I, I don't want to let Murong Yuqing arrange it like this.

So, he lowered his head and said aggrievedly, "What my sister said is good...... Now that our Murong family has fallen into such a field, where will there be a good man who can look down on me......"

The voice was not loud, but it happened to be heard clearly by everyone present.

The Queen Mother listened to my words and was very much in agreement. said that I am lively and active, and I can't stay in Cining Palace. He also said, it's better to let myself be the little master. Not to mention that I have settled in this life, and my grace is all won by myself.

When I saw that the Queen Mother really meant this, I was not very happy.

But Murong Yuqing said that "Xiu'er is straightforward and simple, and it is not suitable for staying in the palace for a long time." If the Queen Mother really feels sorry for Xiu'er, don't let her wade into the troubled waters of the palace! ”

What Murong Yuqing said is nothing wrong with a person who is a sister.

It's just that the Queen Mother took me back from afar, and she moved her mind again, so naturally Murong Yuqing would no longer have the final say, "With you, the queen sister, who can bully her?" ”

After finishing speaking, he specially took the fallen General's Mansion to talk about it, "Although you are now the queen, but the Murong family looks like this, when will you have to wait for you alone to regain your prestige?" ”

At first, I didn't know what the Queen Mother's purpose was. But when I heard this, my heart finally cleared up.

I know that the mother of the Queen Mother used to be very close to the Murong family, and I also know that she grew up with her father since childhood. She helped me like this, and she thought she was also helping the Murong family.

For the Queen Mother, having one more me is one more chance for the Murong family.

When I saw this, I was no longer restrained, but only stepped forward to thank him, saying that he was willing to enter the palace as a concubine, "No matter what the honor and favor are in the future, I just want to be able to take care of each other with my sister, so that my father and mother can return to the capital as soon as possible!" ”

"Xiu'er!"

Seeing this, Murong Yuqing was very anxious.

And I, on the other hand, pretended to be moved by "sister...... Xiu'er knows that you are for my good, but I have made up my mind, you don't want to stop me......"

If you want to enter the palace as a concubine before, it is because you are tempted by the emperor. So now, it's for the Murong family.

In addition to wanting to fight for breath and prove that he is better than Murong Yuqing. What's more, it is to bring the Murong family back from the frontier and take his father and mother out of the predicament.

It's just that no matter how I express my heart and the Queen Mother speaks for me like this, Murong Yuqing refuses to agree to let me enter the palace as a concubine.

even, simply threw this problem to the emperor, saying that she couldn't be the master of this matter. If you have to raise me as the little master, let the Queen Mother ask the emperor what he means.

When I heard this, I was very troubled.

Emperor...... If he asked the emperor, would he agree? At the beginning, he left the General's Mansion in a fit of rage. I haven't seen him again for so long, but I still upset him.

Murong Yuqing is really still Murong Yuqing, knowing that there is such a bad thing between me and the emperor, so I used the emperor to prevaricate the queen mother. She said she couldn't be the master, which was ridiculous! She's the queen! There is nothing she can't do, only what she doesn't want to do, and she doesn't want to do.

The Queen Mother couldn't take her, so she had to give up.

When leaving Kunning Palace, the Queen Mother wanted to go to the imperial study in person and ask the emperor's opinion. Moreover, you have to bring me with you to greet the emperor.

……

The Imperial Study.

The emperor was wearing a dragon robe, sitting upright on the dragon chair and reading the folds.

I haven't seen him for so long, and he really hasn't changed at all.

Whether it is the eyes or the temperament on the body, it is still the same as the first time.

I don't know how the Queen Mother will talk to the emperor later, and I don't know what the emperor means. Just think, he's so perfect, if I can stay by his side, even if I can live ten years less! No, twenty years! I'm willing too.

The emperor saw that the Queen Mother had brought me over, and got up in person, "Why did the Queen Mother come here today?" ”

"The mourning family brought Yuxiu back a while ago, and I specially brought her over today to greet you." The Queen Mother smiled very kindly, and her tone was also very flat.

"Murong Yuxiu, the people's daughter, see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor."

"Excuse me"

The tone, as cold as ever.

"The mourning family just came out of Kunning Palace" The Queen Mother sat down on the side, and then said to the emperor, "By the way, come over instead of Qing'er and ask you for a favor." ”

When the emperor heard this, his expression was a little stunned. It's just that this unnatural look was quickly hidden by him, "It turns out that the queen mother has already taken Yuxiu to ask the queen for peace." ”

"Yes," the Queen Mother nodded, "Their sisters were able to see each other, and they cried so much that they were so moved to see the mourning family." ”

After that, the Queen Mother said again, "Qing'er, she is finally reunited with her sister, and I can't bear her to go back to the frontier to suffer." So he asked the mourning family to come over and ask the emperor if he could leave Yuxiu to serve in the palace. said that Yuxiu admired the emperor very much, and it was most appropriate to leave her as a little master in the palace.

You know, Qing'er is reluctant to take half a step out of Kunning Palace. Her temper is really stubborn. The mourning family was reluctant to respond, but she begged again and again, and the mourning family saw that Yuxiu, a talented and intelligent girl, was a good master, so they agreed. ”

I saw that the Queen Mother told the lie as if it were true, so I had to bite my lip and dare not speak. I kept stirring the handkerchief in my hand and waited quietly for the emperor's answer.

The emperor took one look at me and asked, "So...... What did the queen mother see? ”
