Thick cold sweat broke out on Xianyue's forehead, and she said in a trembling voice: "My lord, I really don't know what the emperor is talking about, my lord..."
Ling Ruo suddenly interrupted her and said: "Then Aijia asks you, how did you catch the cold?!" Before Xianyue could speak, she added: "Don't use lies to deceive Aijia, Aijia
He is not someone you can play around with."
Hearing this, Xianyue already understood the reason why Ling Ruo had called her here overnight. She felt very angry in her heart, but she said helplessly on her face: "I dare not hide it from the emperor. The reason why I caught the cold is because of the cold.
It's because I accidentally met the second elder brother a few days ago and saw that he was alone and shivering with cold, so he gave his umbrella and cloak to the second elder brother."
Ling Ruo sneered and said: "Whether it is unintentional or intentional, you know in your heart, and the Aijia also knows it clearly. You still accompany Yonglian to feed the cats every day, how come the Aijia doesn't know that you are so kind-hearted?"
Xianyue said anxiously: "Empress Eniang clearly knows that Erchen and the second elder brother did meet accidentally. Erchen was afraid that the second elder brother would be in danger when he went out alone to feed the cats, so he decided to accompany him.
Hello." After a pause, she said with great grievance: "I have good intentions, but I really don't know why the emperor is so angry."
Ling Ruo narrowed her eyes and said coldly: "Are you questioning the Ai family?"
Xianyue whispered, "I don't dare, I just don't understand."
"If you really care about Yonglian, you could tell the queen about this, but you didn't do so. What's the reason?"
"The second elder brother told Er Chen that the Empress Queen was seriously allergic to cat and dog hair. If the Empress Queen knew about this, she would probably not let him come out to feed him again, so he begged Er Chen in every possible way not to tell others about it. Er Chen couldn't bear it.
He was disappointed, so he agreed. If I had known earlier that the emperor would misunderstand, I would never have agreed to keep this secret for the second elder brother."
When Xianyue was talking, Ling Ruo kept staring at her eyes for a long time, then slowly nodded and said: "Only you know what is going on. The Aijia will not argue with you about this. The Aijia only wants you.
Remember one sentence."
Xianyue quickly and respectfully said: "Your Majesty, please speak."
Ling Ruo said slowly: "As long as you stay and be your concubine, neither the emperor nor the Ai family will treat you badly. It's only a matter of time before you are allowed to be a concubine. But if you have thoughts that you shouldn't have,
The emperor may miss your years of affection, but the Aijia will never be polite to you, do you understand?!"
Xianyue did not dare to raise her head and whispered: "My son, please remember the emperor's teachings!"
"Okay." Ling Ruo nodded slightly and said, "From now on, please don't meet the second elder brother in private, so as not to misunderstand you again in the Aijia."
Xianyue gritted her teeth and agreed, "Yes, I will definitely remember every word the Queen said and never forget it."
"Just keep it in mind and retreat." Under Ling Ruo's words, Xianyue held A Luo and Zhi Chun's hands, stood up with difficulty, and said softly: "My son, please retreat."
When she sat on the shoulder carriage, Xianyue felt so weak that after she returned to Yanxi Palace, she didn't even have the strength to raise her hands, allowing Qi Kuan and several palace officials to lift her off the shoulder carriage.
Come down.
After stepping aside, Qi Kuan asked Zhichun in a low voice, "Why did the Queen Mother tell Master to go to Cining Palace? Why did Master look so bad?"
Before Zhichun could speak, Xianyue said: "The Queen Mother summoned me to warn me not to meet my second elder brother privately again in the future. Is it clear?"
Qi Kuan didn't expect that his words would be heard by Xianyue. His face turned pale with fright, and he quickly knelt down and said: "Master, forgive me, this slave is not..."
Xianyue interrupted him and said: "That's enough! Get everyone out of here!"
Qi Kuan and Zhi Chun looked at each other, gave a low agreement, and retreated. Only A Luo remained in the palace. Xianyue glanced at her and said: "You also go down, I don't need to wait here anymore, earlier."
Go to the wing and rest."
A Luo hesitated for a moment, but decided to say what he had been holding back for a long time, "Master, the Queen Mother has always been prejudiced against you, so there is no need to take her words to heart." Seeing that Xianyue did not speak, she said again: "Are you hungry?
I'm hungry, otherwise I'll ask someone to stew a bird's nest."
Xianyue sighed lightly, shook her head and said: "No need, go down, don't let me say it a third time."
Seeing that Xianyue didn't even want to talk to him, A'luo had no choice but to retreat. Almost as soon as the palace door closed, two lines of clear tears silently slipped down his cheeks.
Although she called Niu Hulu her mother-in-law, in fact, Niu Hulu was not her biological mother. As A Luo said, there was no need to take those words to heart. But she still felt sad.
The most ridiculous thing is that she doesn't even know why she is sad. Is it because of Niu Hulu's doubts about herself? No, she has been used to it for a long time. What is it...
Xianyue thought for a long time, and it was not until dawn that she finally figured out why she was crying. It was because...she had been wronged and sad, and there was no one else she could complain to except A Luo.
She is like a lonely ghost. Even if she suddenly disappears from this world one day, no one will know because no one will care at all. It is really... sad and ridiculous!
From that day on, Xianyue never went to the right gate of Changkang. Even if she got better later and asked the palace servants to help her out, she would definitely avoid that place.
She didn't want to listen to Niu Hulu's words, but she had to. It was a sad life. However, she swore that she would never let herself be so miserable. One day, she would control her own destiny and get rid of being dependent on others.
days.
On this day, the winter sun was shining brightly. A Luo told her about the scene of wintersweet blooming in the Royal Garden. She became interested and asked A Luo to help her go there for a walk.
Although the imperial doctor of Song Dynasty was about the same age as her, his medical skills were really good. After a few days of nursing, except for the tastelessness in his mouth, there was no serious problem.
When passing by Duixiu Mountain, I heard someone talking in the Fubi Pavilion in front of me. I looked up and saw Mr. Gao and several noble people sitting in the pavilion talking and laughing.
Xianyue didn't want to contact her, so she looked away and said, "I'm a little tired, let's go back."
Before A Luo had time to agree, several people in the pavilion had already seen them. One of the nobles said: "Hey, isn't that Concubine Xian?"
Mrs. Gao looked around and saw that it was Xianyue. She stood up holding Wenzhu's hand and said, "Since sister is here, why don't you go into the pavilion to talk about it and instead leave in a hurry? Don't you want to see me?"
Seeing that she had seen him, Xianyue didn't feel comfortable and left like this. She walked over and said, "Why does Concubine Hui think so? I just don't want to disturb your interest in talking." After Xianyue entered the pavilion, then
Several noble people bowed their knees and saluted.
