Chapter 125 - Portrait in the Box

Yongle Princess Liang Bingyue left Yiyue Hall empty-handed, her mother seemed to really don't eat fireworks in the world, and she didn't give half a gift when her daughter was about to go away, and she didn't have any explanation, just said a few words that Liang Bingyue didn't like very much.

Liang Bingyue walked out of the main hall of Yiyue Hall with an ugly face, and then walked towards the palace gate with her maid.

Before a master and a servant had gone too far, they saw a figure coming towards them, it was an internal official in the emperor's inner study, a little eunuch surnamed Su who was less than twenty years old, his name was very strange, called Su Xing.

Although Su Xing is young, his mind is quite smart and clever, and he is also very sophisticated, so he is very trusted by the emperor, and even Wei Guifei, who has always been very harsh on the palace people, also praised him.

Su Xing does not hold a position in the Inner Chamberlain Province now, but he is very likely to become a future young eunuch, or become the chief of the eunuchs.

After the little eunuch surnamed Su saw Liang Bingyue's figure, he walked more than ten steps, stood in a rather spacious place, saluted Her Royal Highness the princess, and said, "Your Royal Highness the princess, Your Majesty called you to the inner study, saying that you have something to explain." ”

Liang Bingyue's curved willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and asked, "Did my father say anything about it?"

Su Xing shook his head and said softly, "Your Majesty has not explained. ”

Liang Bingyue sighed, slowly moved her steps, and walked in the direction of the inner study.

Wake up and the maid of the princess's mansion quietly followed.

When the three of them passed by the Taiye Pool, they woke up and coughed lightly, Liang Bingyue turned slightly, looked at the young eunuch with a suspicious face, and asked, "Grandpa Su, does you have anything to talk about?"

Su Xing first looked around to make sure that no one was passing here, and then he glanced at Liang Bingyue, the princess of Yongle.

Liang Bingyue was relieved and waved her hand at her maid.

Subsequently, Liang Bingyue and the little eunuch woke up and walked in front, and the maid of the princess's mansion was far behind.

When the three of them were about to leave the range of the Taiye Pool, Liang Bingyue asked softly, "I wonder what news Grandpa Su heard?"

Awake eyes looked straight ahead at the road, as if they hadn't heard Her Royal Highness's question at all, and if it weren't for the trembling lips, it would have been hard for outsiders to believe that the little eunuch was speaking.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, not long after you went to the Yiyue Palace, the noble concubine went to the inner study, chatted with His Majesty for a while, and then returned to the Wutong Palace with a gloomy face.

The slave maid thought that this matter should be related to Her Royal Highness the Princess, so she told you in advance, and I hope Your Highness will pay more attention. ”

After Liang Bingyue heard the news, her heart sank, her heart beat a little faster inexplicably, and the blood flow around her body seemed to stagnate for a moment.

Just a few breaths of time, Liang Bingyue felt as if she had experienced a few nails.

"Your Royal Highness Princess?" Su Xing squinted at Liang Bingyue and whispered in a worried tone.

"Oh, oh..."Liang Bingyue breathed a sigh of relief and said softly, "I'm fine." ”

Su Xing glanced at Liang Bingyue, whose face turned pale in an instant, slowly retracted his gaze, continued to stare at the distance of three feet in front of him, and thought regretfully in his heart: "If I knew that Her Royal Highness the princess had such a big reaction, I shouldn't have told her, now it's okay, her changes will definitely be noticed by His Majesty, and I'm afraid that there will be a reprimand at that time......."

The young man thought seriously for a while, and then whispered to himself: "The big deal is a meal, it's nothing, just carry it, as long as Her Royal Highness the princess doesn't suffer." ”

After thinking about it, this young eunuch with a light appearance who looked like a country soldier waved his right hand, looking like he was cheering himself up.

The waving right hand moved the sleeve of his shirt, causing a different sound to appear in the silent pavilion.

Liang Bingyue's white and tender little face was full of question marks of different sizes, and asked, "What else does Grandpa Su have to say?"

Su Xing hurriedly waved his hand, and said in an embarrassed tone: "No, no, Her Royal Highness the princess heard it wrong." ”

Liang Bingyue sighed, stopped in place, and waited for the maid behind her to follow.

The three of them walked for a cup of tea, and finally came to the emperor's inner study.

Su Xing stopped outside the inner study and motioned for Yongle Princess Liang Bingyue to go in by herself.

After Liang Bingyue entered the inner study, there were two young figures standing outside the courtyard.

Su Xing smiled very shyly and greeted: "Miss Shangguan hasn't seen you for a long time, how are you lately?"

The maid of the princess's mansion, known as Shangguan Girl, was originally named Shangguan Lanying, a native of Liangzhou, Shannan West Province, and was killed by her grandfather Shangguan Ting, and then joined the Yeting Palace as a maid with her mother Zheng.

When he was eight years old, he met Liang Bingyue, the princess of Yongle who was a similar age, and entered the princess's mansion by chance, and since then he has become Liang Bingyue's personal maid.

As for Shangguan Lanying's acquaintance with the little eunuch awakening, it involves a little-known past, so don't mention it.

Shangguan Lanying glanced at this little eunuch with a light appearance, a gentle temperament, and a well-thought-free voice, and said softly: "Everything is fine, how is Brother Su lately?"

Su Xing smiled slightly, the clean and beardless face had a little more change in expression that could not be described in words, and his voice was warm but implicitly sharp, and said: "I'm in the palace, what's wrong, I don't have to worry about eating and drinking every day, just do some errands......"

As he was talking, Su Xing seemed to remember something, decisively cut off the topic just now, and stretched out his hand to signal Shangguan Lanying to go to the corner of the eaves with him.

When the two of them stood at the corner of the eaves of the palace, the great eunuch Yu Chaoen walked out of His Majesty's inner study.

Yu Chaoen squinted at the pair of young boys and girls for a while, then slowly withdrew his gaze and looked fixedly at the pavilion and corridor in front of him.

In the inner study, the emperor stood in front of a row of bookshelves very casually, holding a lone ancient book that was difficult to find in the world, and looked at it carefully.

After Liang Bingyue saluted His Majesty the Emperor, she stood behind her father in thought, and her tightly knit brows revealed her true thoughts at the moment.

I don't know when, the emperor has put the ancient books in his hand back on the shelf, looked at his precious daughter with a kind and caring face, and asked softly: "Xiao Yue'er, what's wrong with you?"

Liang Bingyue shook her head very unwillingly.

Emperor Liang Heng didn't reveal it, but continued to ask: "Is it because your mother said something you don't like to hear?"

Liang Bingyue lowered her head slightly, silent.

The emperor touched his daughter's hair and said with a smile: "Your mother is that kind of person, I am not angry, why do you want to vomit with her?"

Liang Bingyue shook her head, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Father, the mother concubine was born with that kind of character or ......?"

It is still the changes of the world that have made such a beautiful and moving woman a clay carving wood sculpture without half a bit of fireworks.

The emperor sighed faintly and asked, "Have you asked your mother this question?"

Liang Bingyue shook her head again, and said with a wry smile: "If the concubine told me, then is she still her?"

The Emperor smiled bitterly and said slowly, "Then I can guess what she said to you." ”

"Oh?" Liang Bingyue was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Father guessed it?" ”

The emperor paced a few steps and said slowly: "Your mother naturally persuaded you to stay away from Chen Beiwang, she must have said that Chen Beiwang is not a good person and it is really difficult to match, and advised you to find another son-in-law." Right?"

Liang Bingyue looked at her father in surprise, looking like she wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask.

The emperor expressed his daughter's thoughts and said, "Do you think I have eyeliner in the Yiyue Palace?" or do you think your mother is my eyeliner?"

Liang Bingyue nodded with difficulty, she naturally hoped that her father would veto her idea, because that would be too terrible.

Sure enough, His Majesty the Emperor shook his head with a smile and said lightly: "I am just guessing, and I don't know the content of your mother and daughter's conversation. ”

Liang Bingyue looked at her father expectantly, her tone was mixed with a strong desire to learn, and asked, "How did my father guess?"

After all, with the relationship between Emperor Liang Heng and Zhang Zhaorong, there will naturally be no in-depth conversations, so these private topics will naturally not have any chance of communication, so his father can guess the content of his mother's conversation with him, which makes Liang Bingyue shocked and afraid.

The Emperor looked silently into the void, his majestic eyes as if he had traveled back in time to a winter many years ago.

At that time, Liang Bingyue had not yet come to this world, and Zhang Zhaorong was still favored by the emperor at that time.

It was an evening when the wind and snow stopped suddenly, and after Liang Heng finished handling government affairs in Zichen Palace, he came to Zhang Zhaorong's Yiyue Hall with great interest, planning to enjoy the snow and plum blossoms with this concubine with a cold temperament and good looks, and talk about the way of humanity by the way.

In order to surprise the beauty, the emperor waved away the palace people serving outside the palace.

Unexpectedly, the emperor pushed the door into the palace and saw a scene that made him thunderous and angry.

The concubine who was in her heart drew a portrait of a strange man, and she was crying there, looking like she was thinking of Jun.

Emperor Liang Heng was annoyed, and he walked with his concubine in front of that portrait, and then there was Yongle Princess Liang Bingyue.

Since then, Yiyue Hall has become a small palace in the palace city, and it is unbearable cold.

Although Zhang Zhaorong was not punished, he also became a puppet trapped in a corner.

"Father, Father, what are you thinking?"

Liang Bingyue saw that her father was stunned, and couldn't help shouting softly.

The emperor slowly came back to his senses and smiled at his daughter, his smile was mixed with helplessness and sadness, and his tone was slightly gloomy: "You may not know that there is a portrait of another man in your mother's small wooden box, and that man's appearance is somewhat similar to Chen Beiwang. ”

"What? How is this possible?" Liang Bingyue looked at her father in disbelief, and raised her voice and said, "Why did the concubine do this?"

The emperor sighed and said lightly: "What is impossible about this? Although I am the Son of Heaven and rich from all over the world, I can't get everything.

Besides, your mother and his concubine knew him first, and it was only by chance that she became a show girl and entered this great palace. ”

Liang Bingyue looked at her father with a distressed expression, and asked softly, "Can my father blame my mother?"

The emperor shook his head and said with a smile: "Just because she gave birth to me such a good girl, how can I blame her?"

Liang Bingyue burst into tears, hugged her father tightly, and cried loudly.
