Chapter 25: Brother Don't Blacken (25)
The queen was a little stunned when she saw Tao Yao for the first time, this holy woman is indeed very beautiful, even more beautiful than the most beautiful Concubine Rong.
"The Holy Maiden does not need to be polite, His Majesty said that anyone who sees the Holy Maiden and her brothers and sisters except the palace and His Majesty needs to kneel and bow, and just nod when they see the palace."
The queen smiled and nodded, she had heard all the deeds of this holy woman, and knew that she was indeed a useful saint who had saved His Majesty's life and made great achievements in the court.
What's more, at this age, he is enough to be the mother of this holy woman, how can he embarrass a little girl?
"The queen is virtuous and virtuous, I like the queen a little, but I just look at the mother's eyes are red, I'm afraid there are any grievances?"
Tao Yao asked with concern, she knew what was going on in the harem, and she also knew how much the queen had been wronged by that Concubine Rong.
Aren't harem battles all the same?
"There is nothing to do in this palace, and the saint is really quick-witted."
The queen dodged her gaze for a moment, then covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled.
"Queen Mother, you can tell me clearly, are there any abnormal people in the harem, you have also heard of my skills, if there is anything you need help, you can talk to me."
Tao Yao looked around, she vaguely smelled the smell of the peach blossom stick, presumably Concubine Rong often came to say goodbye and left her breath here.
Peach blossom sticks, as the name suggests, can bring enough peach blossom luck to the owner, so that the owner will always be young and beautiful.
"The holy maiden should assist His Majesty in the previous dynasty, not get involved in the affairs of the harem, this palace knows that you are indeed a capable person, otherwise Your Majesty will not attach so much importance to your brothers and sisters, even so, the holy daughter's energy should not be wasted by these harem battles."
The queen accepted Tao Yao's kindness, but the things in the harem were jealous of some women, and it was really not worth the trouble of letting the saint go through such a big effort.
No matter what's wrong, it's been so many years, that Concubine Rong is still quite loved by His Majesty, she has accepted it numbly, what else can she do?
"The queen is really in general, but the more sensible people are, the more they will be let down, shouldn't the mother really think about it?"
Tao Yao took a closer look at the surroundings, and she keenly smelled these breaths, indicating that Concubine Rong had come many times, and I was afraid that every time she came, she wanted the queen to respond once, right?
Tao Yao talked to the queen, and Lu Shen'an stood quietly aside, but at this moment he was inexplicably a little uneasy in his heart.
What my sister said last night was already quite strange, who will you meet when you come over today, that Concubine Rong?
"Actually, the holy maiden must know it, this palace thinks that these harem are jealous, and the holy maiden doesn't have to waste too much thought, this palace will take care of the harem."
The queen smiled again and shook her head, in fact, she was just a beautiful concubine who was loved by His Majesty, but Her Majesty was still wise and martial, and she was not overly addicted to beauty, and the government was well governed.
Even so, she has nothing to say, she is the queen, so she naturally has to tolerate the existence of every concubine.
Since Concubine Rong is also honest and has not been wronged by him, then she should be more tolerant of self-examination.
"Niangniang is kind," Tao Yao smiled, "I have already seen the queen mother with my younger brother today, if there is nothing to do, I will wait for the two of them to retreat first, if Niangniang has any need for help, you can let people go to Xuanji Palace to find us!" ”
Tao Yao was quite polite to the queen, in fact, she could see that the queen was a virtuous and virtuous queen, and it was already very good to be able to tolerate Concubine Rong's existence for so many years.
"Hmm."
The queen nodded, looking at Tao Yao's gaze with a little more affection.
To tell the truth, when she learned the news of the Holy Maiden, her first reaction was that she was afraid that His Majesty's old mistake would be committed again, but after asking about the deeds of the Holy Maiden, she did not dare to insult the Holy Maiden with such thoughts.
When I saw this holy woman today, although she looked like a little girl, she was quite polite in her words and actions, and she really liked it.
"I think the queen mother is very good, she looks gentle and loving, but this Fengyi Palace seems to be a little deserted, it seems that Your Majesty doesn't come often!"
Tao Yao took Lu Shen to walk slowly on the palace road, take a look here, take a walk there.
When the palace people passing by saw them, they all bowed and bowed, and when they looked at the two of them, they knew that this was His Majesty's most trusted saint and the younger brother of the saint.
"Hmm."
Lu Shen thought about it carefully, it was true.
"Didn't my sister say that there is a very beautiful Concubine Rong in this harem, maybe Your Majesty is attracted by Concubine Rong?"
Lu Shen felt that this should be the case.
"What? Do you know that men like beautiful women? If you have a girl who is more beautiful than me in the future, will your heart be transferred to the beautiful girl? ”
Tao Yao turned her head and teased Lu Shen curiously, she naturally knew that Lu Shen didn't have so many crooked thoughts, but she still couldn't help but want to tease him.
"Not really!"
Lu Shen was really anxious, and quickly shook his head, for fear that his sister would misunderstand.
"I like my sister, definitely not because of my beautiful face, but because I like the feeling of being with my sister, we have been dependent on each other for so many years, and these feelings are irreplaceable by anyone."
Lu Shen said every word, extremely solemn.
"Really?" Tao Yao still continued to tease him, "If I encounter any injuries and disfigurement that day, will you be afraid?" ”
"If that's the case, I'll draw exactly the same wounds on my body, so that you and I will be the same."
Lu Shen blinked and thought for a while, then replied seriously.
He really intends to do this, what his sister looks like, then he looks like him.
"What a fool!"
Tao Yao curled the corners of her lips and couldn't help but smile.
It seems that even if she has kept Lu Shen by her side for so long, the essence of this sick girl has not changed, but it has been temporarily suppressed.
"Let's go, let's go south and have a look!"
Tao Yao grabbed Lu Shen's hand and walked in the direction of the south, and after a few steps, he saw a beauty.
Tao Yao could feel that Lu Shen's body had become stiff, there was no way, he would always experience this day.
Lu Shen recognized the woman in front of him, although her appearance had changed a lot, but the mole in the corner of her eye, he would always remember it.
"The slave has seen the saint!"
The moon fragrance beside Lu Wange hurriedly knelt down and saluted, Your Majesty has said, except for Your Majesty and the Queen, the rest of the people have to salute when they see the Holy Maiden.
And Lu Wange nodded slightly as a salute, her attention was all on Tao Yao, looking at such a young and beautiful face, her heart was really sour.
Although her current appearance is also very beautiful, she is at this age, and she is just a false empty shell.
And the little girl in front of her is a really blooming peach blossom.
Tao Yao waved her hand to let Yuexiang, who was kneeling, get up, "This is the famous Concubine Rong?" ”
"That's what the saint said."
Lu Wange nodded, although she hated it very much, her eyes still couldn't help but look at Tao Yao's face.
For so many years, she cares a lot about her own face, and she also cares about other people's faces, and beauty is a hurdle that she will never be able to get over in her life.
"This is my younger brother, I wonder if the mother feels familiar?"
Tao Yao got straight to the point and led the topic to Lu Shen, Lu Shen was still a little emotional, but at this moment he became calm and waveless.
Tao Yao knew that Lu Shen must have recognized it, but was it so calm?
"What do you mean by that?"
Lu Wange glanced at Lu Shen casually, if Fang hadn't noticed it just now, then as soon as he saw those eyes at this moment, the future and the past came flooding back.
Even if she doesn't remember the child's face, she still remembers the child's eyes clearly, and every time she beats and scolds the child, she will stare at herself with these eyes.
Terrible, really horrible!
She really thinks that this child is here to collect debts, and if she takes the child with her, she doesn't know what terrible things will happen in the future!
So at that time, I immediately decided to throw the child in that village.
"You, you are?"
Lu Wange stretched out her hand tremblingly, pointed at Lu Shen and asked, her heart jumped violently, could it really be him?
No! No way!
There's no way he's going to be here!
When she abandoned the child in the mountain village, she guessed that nothing good would happen, and she would rather the child really die in the village!
But why is it here now, why is it alive in front of her again, do you want to come over to collect debts again!
"It's me."
Lu Shen looked at Lu Wange's eyes and clearly saw the fear in the other party's eyes.
"Mother, what's wrong?"
Yuexiang helped Lu Wange, and Lu Wange trembled with fear, and she was about to lose her footing.
She looked at Lu Shen curiously, and she didn't see anything wrong, wasn't the black-clothed young man in front of her the younger brother of the saint?
"It's nothing, let's go back quickly."
Lu Wange covered her heart with her hand and took a deep breath, she didn't want to stay here anymore, she didn't want to see the person in front of her, and she didn't want to recall the unbearable things in the past!
"What's in your mind?"
Looking at Lu Wange's back and running away, Tao Yao showed sarcasm, having enjoyed the life of fine clothes and food in the palace for so many years, had you ever thought about her own children?
Now even if I really see my child, I am so frightened that I run away, how empty is my heart?
"I don't have any ideas."
Lu Shen replied truthfully, I was still very curious, my sister often mentioned what this Concubine Rong meant, but now that she knows the truth, she is not curious.
just sighed, why that woman is getting more and more beautiful, but these have nothing to do with him, he doesn't care at all.
Tao Yao took Lu Shen's hand and continued to walk slowly, thanks to her raising Lu Shen by her side for so many years, all the resentment in his heart dissipated a lot.
You must know that after Lu Shen in the original world found Lu Wange, he directly killed her with his own hands and killed his mother, which naturally cannot be tolerated by the world.
But Lu Shen was full of poison, everyone hated and feared, and in the end Lu Shen committed suicide, because he didn't know what the meaning of life was, and this life was bitter after all.
"Actually, I brought you to the capital and came to the palace, just for this matter, I owe you something to pay back after all, I know you don't care about this, but don't worry, I will help you finish it."
Tao Yao showed a sweet smile, this is the meaning of her coming to this world.
