After leaving Qiuyan Palace, Concubine Shu approached Long Chuxia and whispered: "Chunmei said that this morning, she saw Princess Qingping secretly leaving the palace in a sedan chair."
Long Chuxia asked: "It's normal. What's the problem with leaving the palace?"
"The problem is that she is riding in a sedan. She usually rides a horse. Over the years, the sedans in Qingzhi Palace have been used by mothers and aunts," Concubine Shu said softly.
Long Chuxia frowned and asked: "How did Chunmei know it was Qingping? Maybe the nun from Qingzhi Palace went out to buy things?"
"No, the sedan bumped against each other at Dongning Gate. Chunmei happened to be passing by. I heard Princess Qingping scolding her from the sedan, saying that the bearer was a loser and could not do a good job just by eating." Concubine Shu said, Chunmei said this.
Mei came back and told Concubine Shu that Concubine Shu didn't take it seriously at the time, but later she heard what Manager Li said and saw Qingping deliberately making trouble. The whole thing was connected in series, and it was indeed a bit suspicious, so she informed Long Chuxia
After Long Chuxia heard her entire account, she was basically certain that she had kidnapped the third prince. She had never interacted with Concubine Ying on weekdays, and would not even have a nice word to say when they met. Now she suddenly showed up to express her innocence? It was obviously Mr. Li who had a guilty conscience.
After saying something Fu An said, she got angry and beat people on the spot, and even used the incident of her spending the night in the palace to change the topic. Finally, the topic was brought back by the queen, and she used a golden cicada to escape from her shell. It was really cool.
However, there is still a doubt. What is her purpose of arresting the third prince? If it is to cure the erythema on the face, where did she learn about the treatment method for the erythema? Moreover, she does not arrest the eldest prince and the second prince, but only the second prince.
The capture of the third prince was obviously because the imperial concubine was no longer favored. Even if the third prince disappeared, according to Qiuyan Palace's ability, he could not search immediately. He could only search throughout the palace. The eldest prince and the second prince were in the queen's house.
If he goes missing, the queen will immediately order a search of the palace according to her resolute character. Then she will not have enough time to send the person out of the palace.
Concubine Shu grabbed Long Chuxia's clothes and begged: "Chuxia, you must help Concubine Ying find the third prince. Her whole life's hope lies in the third prince."
The deep sisterly love between Concubine Shu and Concubine Ying really moved Long Chuxia. She comforted: "Don't worry, Concubine Shu, I will definitely do my best to find the third prince. Now, you go back and accompany Concubine Ying first."
, tell her to relax in everything and don’t get into trouble, it’s not good for her health!”
Concubine Shu said: "Sister Ying Fei's personality has changed greatly since she escaped from death. She is now open-minded in everything, but when it comes to her own flesh and blood, it is inevitable that she can't let it go. It's okay. I will go back to accompany her, and you will leave the outside matters to you.
Go run"
Long Chuxia's jaw turned red, and her bright eyes were red. Such deep love for sisters always touched the softest part of her heart. In fact, she also had a brother, and they once had a deep love for each other as brother and sister.
Concubine Shu stared at Long Chuxia for a while, and saw that the emperor and Zhuge Tengfei were walking and talking at the same time. They had gone quite far, so she blushed and whispered: "Chuxia, tell that Dai Yuchu that there is no need to send soup to me anymore."
, as time goes by, there will always be people gossiping. You should find a wife and a house for him as soon as possible, have children, and live a simple, plain and happy life. I... am not worthy of his waiting like this!"
Long Chuxia looked at her in astonishment, not expecting that she would say these words. Listening to her tone, she did not dislike Dai Dongguan. On the contrary, there was even a hint of affection. In the past,
She once thought that Concubine Shu must look down on Dai Dongguan in her heart. He was not handsome, chubby, and not a prominent figure. He was just a little royal cook. Concubine Shu used to be a dignified daughter of the Prime Minister, but now she is as powerful as
How could the emperor's beloved concubine look at a plump winter melon?
"You really surprise me!" Long Chuxia said after a long while.
Concubine Shu blushed and said, "I know how good he is to me, but it's not worth wasting in my life!"
"Whether it is a waste, outsiders can't make a conclusion. We think it is a waste, but he is happy with it." Long Chuxia finally understood Dai Dongguan's persistence. It turned out that this relationship was not in vain, but that she despised them.
The friendship between them also underestimated Concubine Shu’s character.
Concubine Shu sighed faintly, "There are some things that are as deep as the sea once you enter the palace. Even if you have the intention, you can't do it. I am different from Liang Cairen. I am responsible for the rise and fall of the family. I can't make any mistakes, knowing that I can't help."
What kind of guarantee does he have? How can I have the heart to ask him to waste his youth and years for me? It is better to get married and have children as soon as possible and live such a happy life!"
"Concubine Shu seems to yearn for the life of an ordinary couple. You even define it by happiness!"
Concubine Shu lowered her head and said softly: "My uncle and aunt are such a plain and happy couple. When I entered the palace, I saw that the emperor was so handsome and talented, so I naturally fell in love with him.
, It's a pity that a woman's heart can easily become cold. The Emperor is ruthless to any woman in the harem. He will not give any guarantee or a sweet word, not to mention love. Unlike my sister Yingfei, I am surrounded by everyone.
She is a cheerful and open-minded person, and her persuasion hit the nail on the head. Slowly, I let go. But Sister Yingfei, who was stubborn and just waited for the emperor to fall in love with her, was destined to be disappointed. I remember King Qingping was at the banquet.
As someone jokingly said, if a woman wants to die or even spend her whole life just because of a man she once fell in love with, that is the behavior of a fool!"
Long Chuxia knew that this theory must have been heard by King Qingping from modern times. Which modern person has not experienced broken love? Falling out of love makes people grow and mature. This is a process of life. One advantage of modern times is that after being broken up, you can find someone else.
A person continues to love each other, even if he continues to fall out of love, he still believes in love. Women in ancient times, especially women in the palace, after falling out of love, they can only live with the relationship that is dead or has never existed, and there is no new one.
Love, no new life
Therefore, even though the women in the harem are noble, they are the least free and unhappy. They are not even qualified to be lovelorn.
Maybe if you let them go, they can look for a more perfect life. Long Chuxia suddenly thought this, but the thought flashed past her. She shook her head, no, this is ancient times after all. Even if they let them go, they would not have the strength to live again.
Looking for their own happiness, because at that time, they will feel that they are abandoned women and may not even have the courage to live.
No one can decide other people’s lives, Long Chuxia thought
After breaking up with Concubine Shu, Long Chuxia wanted to catch up with Feng Lingxiao, but seeing that he and Zhuge Tengfei seemed to have something to talk about, and she also had some things she wanted to figure out, she returned to Xuantian Pavilion
The hedgehog was swinging, and Long Chuxia called out the fire demon and asked: "Are you sure you haven't told anyone about the treatment of the red spots on Qingping's face?"
The fire demon shook his head and said, "Definitely not!"
"That's strange. Logically speaking, it's impossible for Qingping to know. Is there someone else who knows this method and informed her?"
"Impossible. Only the God of Fire and I know this method. Even you, the master, don't know it. Who else in the world would know it?" The Fire Demon squatted on the ground and ate chestnuts.
Xiao Wu came over and asked curiously, "Actually, besides using the blood of her three nephews, is there any other way?"
Long Chuxia suddenly raised her head, "How did you know?"
The fire demon was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered what he told the three little hedgehogs that day, and he suddenly turned into a wisp of smoke and flew away.
"Get back!" Long Chuxia threw out a peach core and took back the wisp of green smoke.
All the snacks in the Fire Demon's pocket were confiscated. He squatted pitifully in the corner and told all the things that happened that day. Later, Xiao Wu said that he saw Qingping walking towards Xuantian Pavilion, and maybe he heard them outside the door.
conversation
There is no doubt that Qing Pinglong must have lit a row of incense on the ground in early summer and asked them to stand upside down and hold the incense with one hand for an hour. As punishment, the hedgehog and the fire demon were tortured until they were dejected and yelled that they would never dare again.
