Chapter 70: Qinghe Palace
At this time, the inside of the house is like a bright spring day, but the outside of the house is cold and windy. The chief manager was in the dark of night, leading the four sedan chair drivers to walk in a hurry in the deep palace corridor, but at some point the sky suddenly snowflakes, the chief manager Wu Fu's footsteps were more vigorous as flying, and from time to time he was still urging the four sedan chair drivers to hurry up, faster.
When he arrived at Yong'an Palace, Emperor Wu Wei was obviously displeased, and he scolded even more rudely with the strength of wine. Wu Fu saw that beads of sweat were oozing from his forehead, and he was suddenly frightened and didn't know what to do, he knew that Emperor Wu Wei was moody, and he was drunk again, if he was made angry at this time, he might not be able to save his life.
Immediately handed a look of help to 'Guo Qiuyue' on the side, 'Guo Qiuyue' understood, and persuaded with a big belly: "Your Majesty, don't be angry, there are already snowflakes fluttering outside, but the beads of sweat on Mr. Wu's forehead are visible, which proves that he has trotted all the way." Why should Your Majesty scold him? ”
When Emperor Wu Wei saw 'Guo Qiuyue' pleading, his tone calmed down. waved his hand and said, "That's it, if it weren't for Concubine Guo's intercession for you today, I would not be willing to spare your sins." is a cheap minion, and he still doesn't thank Concubine Guo. ”
Wu Fu saw that Emperor Wu Wei's face was drunk, and his already crimson face was even more terrifying because of anger, so he was smart. Turning his face to look at 'Guo Qiuyue' to the side, he said, "Slave, thank you Concubine Guo." ”
'Guo Qiuyue' just nodded lightly and gestured to return the salute. And Emperor Wu Wei on the side was already a little impatient, for the beauty who had not yet met, coupled with the stimulation of the body of deer blood wine, the desire was even stronger, how could he still have the heart to listen to the kind words between the two at the moment, and hurriedly said impatiently: "Okay, okay, Manager Wu." Can you have a sedan ready?"
Manager Wu hurriedly agreed: "Your Majesty, the sedan chair is already waiting outside the palace." ”
Emperor Wu Wei only felt a wave of heat spread throughout his body, and his blood was boiling. The inner fire cannot be extinguished even in the snowy winter night. His face turned crimson, and he nodded with satisfaction: "Help me up, I want to see a beauty." ”
Manager Wu smiled and agreed: "The slave obeys the order." At this time, 'Guo Qiuyue' was pale. Looking at the man he loved deeply, he was so affectionate to another woman at this time, and his heart was sour.
Think again, this man you love so much. Tonight, I have to hug other women, love is as deep as the sea, turning clouds and spitting fog. A cloud and rain, lingering and entangled together. Her jealousy and hatred came to her heart even more.
It's just that this instantaneous change, without anyone noticing, has already changed her complexion, from hatred, disgust, and even pain. It turned into a look of concern.
Because she knows that she is always small, no matter how sad she is, it will not help. After all, he is the king of a country, and there are three thousand beauties in the harem. How can he keep his love only for himself, but what makes him feel even more sad is that although he seems to be pampered.
However, all this does not belong to himself, but to the real Guo Qiuyue, thinking of this. She deepened the hatred in her heart, but she couldn't show it, she wanted to act, even if all this came and went in a hurry, as long as there was a moment that belonged to her, she had to hold it tightly in the palm of her hand.
Chief Manager Wu Fu carried the palace lamp to illuminate the road in the courtyard of Yong'an Palace for Emperor Wu Wei, and 'Guo Qiuyue' suddenly stood at the door, reluctant, and said with some concern: "Your Majesty, the snow is falling outside, on such a cold day, let's put on this cloak! ”
As he spoke, 'Guo Qiuyue' was supported by Qiu Ling and walked out of the house. Personally draped the cloak on his shoulders for Emperor Wu Wei, and Emperor Wu Wei was in the bright moonlight. Looking at the handsome face of 'Guo Qiuyue', I was very moved.
Although he was already drunk and hazy, his heart was happy and sweet, and he gently held up the chin of 'Guo Qiuyue'. There was love in his eyes and he said: "The beauty is pregnant with Liujia, and it is not easy to move." Watch out for the cold, let's get back to the house quickly!"
Then he looked at Qiu Ling and said, "Quickly help Concubine Guo back to the room, and then lead the way for me, I will wait for you outside the palace." ”
Qiu Ling agreed: "Yes." Emperor Wu Wei nodded with satisfaction, and then instructed Wu Fu: "Let's go!"
Wu Fu served Emperor Wu Wei diligently and walked out of the courtyard of Yong'an Palace. and served him into the sedan chair. Fang Cai stood on the side of the sedan chair, quietly waiting for the arrival of Qiu Ling.
'Guo Qiuyue' stood outside the courtyard, looking at Emperor Wu Wei's back, but for some reason tears welled up in his line, muttering: "Your Majesty, it would be great if the concubine could serve you in this life, but this is a dream after all." The concubine is afraid of waking up from a dream and losing you, but you know the bitterness in the concubine's heart. ”
Seeing this, Qiu Ling hurriedly helped up 'Guo Qiuyue' and said: "Niangniang, why is it so sad, Your Majesty just looked at Niangniang's eyes with deep affection. Your Majesty favors Niangniang alone, Niangniang should feel happy!"
'Guo Qiuyue' walked into the main hall of Yong'an Palace with the support of Qiu Ling, and sighed as she walked: "Qiu Ling, no one can understand my suffering and helplessness, sometimes all this is just a dream." ”
Qiu Ling was confused when she heard it, and this inner incomprehension has never disappeared, since her master 'Guo Qiuyue' was pregnant with a dragon son, she has always let herself no longer be able to see through, sometimes she feels that she is a little insane, and often says something inexplicable.
Guo Qiuyue, who has just entered the palace, and 'Guo Qiuyue', who is now pregnant with a dragon, have completely changed into a person, and the former Guo Qiuyue has a short temper and cruel methods. It can be said that she can use any vicious means, in order to prevent Concubine Hua and Concubine Xiao from competing for favor with herself.
was framed by her, it can be said that she is cold-blooded at all. And the current 'Guo Qiuyue' is sentimental, sometimes inexplicably soft-hearted, and sometimes inexplicably crying. Qiu Ling would never have thought that Guo Qiuyue would let Emperor Wuwei get the rain and dew evenly wet, and bless the harem. This was unthinkable before.
Although Qiu Ling was full of puzzlement, she didn't dare to ask more. After serving 'Guo Qiuyue' to rest, he retreated: "Slave, I have retired first, I am afraid that Your Majesty will not be able to wait for a long time." The mother rested earlier, and the slave and maid retired. ”
'Guo Qiuyue' wiped away her tears, lay on the bed and waved her hand: "Go! Your Majesty is drunk and affectionate, and if you wait for a long time, you will be angry." You can't afford to do this, so hurry up and lead the way! The road is slippery and snowy again. Dress extra and keep warm. ”
Qiu Ling's heart suddenly became hot, and he hurriedly said: "The slave and maid thank the mother for her concern, and ask the mother to take care of the phoenix body, and the slave and maid will retire." ”
After saying that, Qiu Ling turned around and left, at this time, Wu Fu had already anxiously picked up the lamp and wandered outside the Yong'an Palace, the palace lamp under the moonlight was swaying, and the whiteness of this place formed a beautiful night scene.
The person standing in the snow was particularly anxious, and Emperor Wu Wei in the sedan chair was even more anxious, unsettled, and cold. It provoked his anger even more.
Just when Emperor Wu Wei was about to get angry, he suddenly heard Wu Fu's eager voice outside the sedan chair and said, "Qiu Ling, you have come out." How long has Your Majesty been waiting for you, if you hurt Your Majesty's dragon body due to the cold, you can bear this responsibility?"
Qiu Ling wrapped his coat tightly, only to feel the bitter cold wind outside. As soon as he heard Wu Fu's words, he was immediately frightened, and hurriedly apologized: "The slave and maid should die, the slave and maid saw that Concubine Guo was pregnant and had difficulty moving." Yu Xin couldn't bear it, so Fang served Concubine Guo to rest in peace, and then hurriedly left Yong'an Palace. ”
"The slave is guilty, please punish your majesty. ”
Emperor Wu Wei was originally angry, but after listening to Qiu Ling's words, and thinking about the child in Concubine Guo's womb, he calmed down his anger, and then said: "That's it, Concubine Guo is my beloved concubine, and you are not wrong to worry about your master." I have the right to forgive you for your innocence. ”
After Qiu Ling thanked him, Emperor Wu Wei then opened the curtain and said, "Wu Fu, I can't afford to go to see the beauty in a sedan car." ”
Wu Fu didn't dare to delay, his expression was a little flustered. Hurriedly commanded the four entourages and said, "Quick, get up quickly." ”
Then he looked at Qiu Ling to the side and said with a smile: "Auntie, please lead the way." ”
Qiu Ling nodded, and the group left Yong'an Palace and went straight to the Qinghe Hall of the West Palace. At this time, the Qinghe Hall was no longer as depressed as in the past, but was dressed up again.
Since that day, after the 'Concubine Xiao' left the Qinghe Palace, she ordered 'Guo Qiuyue' to buy some daily necessities for her, and selected a few palace maids to serve her. Although the current Qinghe Hall is not luxurious, it is much better than the living conditions of ordinary concubines.
Mrs. Wei's whole person has changed from the inside out, rouge gouache, gold and silver jewelry are not lacking, and all these things she has are also rewarded to her by 'Concubine Guo'.
And because Mrs. Wei has the opportunity for revenge, she dresses up carefully every day and maintains her complexion. Compared with the past, she looks more slender and charming, although she is nearly forty years old. In terms of beauty, it is not inferior to other young women at all. On the contrary, her body is a little more mature, a kind of longing that makes people want to touch it when they meet it.
Because she was notified by 'Guo Qiuyue' in advance, Mrs. Wei did not go to bed at the moment, she personally cooked a decanting soup for Emperor Wu Wei, and was waiting for Emperor Wu Wei's arrival.
Emperor Wu Wei sat in the sedan chair, and at this moment, under the influence of alcohol, the whole person was already burning crazy with that touch of love. He was blazing all over, and kept telling Wu Fu to speed up his pace.
Under the moonlight, the lines were in a hurry, and the snowflakes were still flying. Stepping on the snow, there is a rustling sound from time to time. Turn left and right through the cloister, and then walk through the palace road. Only then did I come to the Qinghe Hall of the West Palace, and the Qinghe Hall was brightly lit at this time.
The melodious sound of the piano sounded in the room, and Emperor Wu Wei stepped down from the sedan chair. Looking up at the Qinghe Palace, he muttered, "Is the sound of this piano coming from here?"
Wu Fu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this melodious and beautiful music is coming from the Qinghe Palace. ”
Emperor Wu Wei was a little puzzled and said, "Who lives in the Qinghe Palace? I can't even remember." ”
Wu Fu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this West Palace is the place where the concubines of the first emperor lived. After the death of the first emperor, some of the concubines of the first emperor were exiled from the palace to marry others. Some stayed in the West Palace, and this Qinghe Hall was the favorite concubine of the first emperor, Mrs. Wei. ”
Emperor Wu Wei tried hard to recall this Mrs. Wei, but his memory was a little vague about her, and listening to the sound of the piano in the room, Emperor Wu Wei hesitated. When he heard that Lady Wei was the favorite concubine of the first emperor. He didn't know how to face this person named Mrs. Wei for a while.
He didn't know how to face the first emperor who had passed away, after all, it stands to reason that Emperor Wu Wei needed to call Mrs. Wei a queen mother. If she is allowed to serve herself, if she spreads it, it will be an act that will damage the royal face. But at this moment, he was stimulated by the deer blood wine, and his love was unbearable, and he had nowhere to vent that passionate desire at this moment.
He could only hesitate, Wu Fu naturally knew why Emperor Wu Wei was so hesitant, and immediately reminded: "Your Majesty, there is no one else here. Your Majesty......"
Before he finished speaking, Emperor Wu Wei had already understood what he meant, and immediately smiled, patted Wu Fu's shoulder and said, "Wu Fu, you are getting smarter and smarter, I didn't hurt you in vain." ”
Wu Fu said with a smug face: "Thank you Your Majesty for your praise, the slave is not relying on His Majesty's Long Wei, so he is getting more and more His Majesty's thoughts." ”
Emperor Wu Wei nodded: "Well, then I will go in." Let's go back to the palace first, and I'll be here tonight. ”
Wu Fu smiled knowingly and said, "Yes, the minions are retiring." ”
Then Wu Fu waved his hand: "Let's go! Which of you dares to leak half a word about today's matter, be careful of your heads." ”
Several people hurriedly said: "The minions don't dare." Wu Fu nodded with satisfaction and led everyone to leave the Qinghe Palace.
After Qiu Ling returned to Yong'an Palace, 'Guo Qiuyue' had not rested. Seeing that Qiu Ling was back, he asked on the bed, "Is the matter done?"
Qiu Ling said: "It's done, Your Majesty has entered the Qinghe Palace." Presumably, this moment should be the moment of Spring Festival!"
'Guo Qiuyue' nodded: "Well, since that's the case." Stand down!"
Qiu Ling agreed, added some charcoal fire to the 'Guo Qiuyue' room, and after raising the charcoal fire, he blew out the candle lamp before retreating......
