"Please bring the two princesses out." Huang Ying waited for a while, but saw no movement from Wei Jingxuan, so she whispered to the eunuch who came with him, and the latter nodded and left. After a while, he held Wei Jingxuan, who was not yet half a year old, in his arms.
The little princess came over, holding He Jing on the other hand.
Seeing this scene, Wei Jingxuan stood up and wanted to run over, but was stopped by Huang Ying, "Mother, the imperial edict has been issued. The two princesses must be taken away. Please don't stop them!"
Wei Jingxuan said urgently: "No, you can't take He Jing and He Yu away." The reason why she can firmly hold the position of concubine under the watchful eyes of so many people is because of her daughters, and now Hong
If Li takes them away, she will have no one to rely on, which is extremely detrimental to her; besides, if Hongli can take away He Jing today, he may be thrown into the cold palace tomorrow.
Huang Ying reminded: "Your Majesty is wrong. It is not the slaves who want to take away the two princesses, but the Emperor. If you stop them, you will be disobeying the order. When the time comes, the situation will only be even more unfavorable to My Majesty."
"But..." Wei Jingxuan was about to say more, but Huang Ying lowered her voice and said: "The two princesses are bound to be taken away today, and no one can stop them, but the empress can wait for the emperor to calm down, and then try to ask for help.
Bring the two princesses back to you."
Mao Gui said in Wei Jingxuan's ear: "What Eunuch Huang said is that the master should be patient for now."
Hearing what they said, Wei Jingxuan could only nod helplessly. Seeing her consent, Huang Ying turned around and said to the eunuch: "Let's go."
This time, He Jing didn't let him pull her away. She raised her head and said, "Where else are we going? Didn't you say you would take me to find E Niang?"
Huang Ying knelt down and said with a smile: "To tell you the princess, the emperor is afraid that it will be too hard for the concubine to take care of you and the ninth princess, so he asked the servant to take you two to my elder brother's residence for a while."
Although He Jing didn't quite understand, she didn't like it intuitively, so she immediately said: "I'm not going, I want to be with E Niang." With that, she broke away from the eunuch's hand and ran towards Wei Jingxuan, but Huang Ying stopped her.
He picked her up and walked out quickly regardless of her struggles!
He Jing struggled to get away, and was so anxious that she cried. While crying, she reached out to Wei Jingxuan and cried: "E Niang! E Niang!"
Heyu, who was held in the arms of the eunuch, heard her crying and started crying too. Until they walked out of the Yongshou Palace, the crying could still be heard faintly.
Wei Jingxuan's legs were weak and she fell to the ground. Her eyes were dull and she muttered something. Mao Gui had been by her side for so many years, and this was the first time he saw her like this. Together with Qiaoyu, he took her
After leaning on the chair, he advised: "Master, don't worry too much, maybe... the emperor will send the two princesses back in a few days."
Wei Jingxuan looked up at him and suddenly showed a wry smile. "Xiao Guizi, do you think it's possible?"
Mao Gui said with relief: "Master and slave said that as long as the matter does not reach the last step, there is still a chance. Just like we were worried that the emperor would kill the master and his family before, but the sixth elder brother begged for their lives before he died and ordered them to
Finally escaped death." After a pause, he continued: "Besides, don't we still have Taoist Sister Xuanjing's chess move?"
This sentence cheered up Wei Jingxuan. She tried her best to stop the trembling of her hands and said, "Is there any news from Xuan Jing?"
"Not yet, but I think it will only happen in the next few days. Master, don't worry too much." Faced with Mao Gui's words, Wei Jingxuan murmured: "I hope... this move is not wrong!"
In the evening, Mrs. Ning came to Yongshou Palace. When Wei Jingxuan saw her, she burst into tears. Seeing this, Mrs. Ning quickly stroked her back and said: "I already know the matter. Alas, the emperor is really cruel. Even though it is Wei Xiuyan.
It made Sixth Brother's condition worse and eventually turned into tuberculosis, but what does it have to do with you!"
Wei Jingxuan sobbed: "I have nothing to do, I just feel sorry for He Jing and He Yu. They cried so hard when they were taken away. I don't know if they are better now, and if the palace attendants of my elder brother are not willing to take care of themselves,
What to do with them, sister, I...I'm so worried."
"I understand. Don't worry. I just went to my brother's office to see it. He Jing and the others stopped crying. I also warned the people in my brother's office. I believe they don't dare to do anything wrong."
Wei Jingxuan nodded and choked with sobs: "Fortunately, I still have a sister, otherwise I really don't know what to do." As she said that, she squeezed Ning's hand and begged: "Sister, please help me to beg the emperor, even if... even if...
If you can’t keep them around, let me go and see them at least.”
Ning sighed and said: "Long before coming here, I went to Yangxin Hall to beg the emperor, but the emperor still refused to let go, and I had no choice."
Wei Jingxuan shed tears and said nothing. Qiaoyu wiped her tears and said, "Your Majesty, he is so cruel!"
Ning was also very depressed and said: "Things are getting serious right now. Sister, please bear with me for now. As long as you find an opportunity, I will help you make suggestions to the emperor so that your mother and daughter can be reunited as soon as possible."
The following days were undoubtedly extremely uncomfortable for Wei Jingxuan. Not only did she receive cold looks and ridicule, she was also worried and scared all day long, and she could not sleep well, lest Hongli would accuse her of some crimes.
Now her only hope is from Taoist Aunt Xuanjing. She is looking forward to news soon. However, this time, it seems that God is really going to kill her. Instead of waiting for news from Taoist Aunt Xuanjing, she has been waiting for Hongli.
rebuke.
That day, Hongli missed He Jing and went to visit his elder brother. As soon as he entered there, He Jing cried and said that he wanted to go back to Yongshou Palace. After being rejected by Hong Li, He Jing cried and beat Hong Li.
He said he was not good and refused to let her see E Niang. He was a bad person. He Jing was Hongli's daughter. Although he was unhappy, he did not reprimand He Jing, but he treated Wei Jingxuan
He was not so polite. He summoned her to the Hall of Mental Cultivation and scolded her for not teaching He Jing well, making her disrespectful and reckless at a young age. There was a hint of deposedness in her words, which made Wei Jingxuan panic.
Jiang Heyu and the others were carried out, and they cried and complained before Hongli was ordered not to depose her immediately, but to order her to go back and think about her mistakes.
But Wei Jingxuan's heart was never at peace. Since Hongli had already had that idea and took action, it would only be a matter of time. Concubine Shen couldn't protect her at all, let alone Xianyue and others.
Just when Wei Jingxuan was feeling uneasy, a Taoist nun who was about forty years old and quite beautiful appeared at the gate of Ziyun Temple. She bowed her head to the Taoist priest guarding the gate and said, "I am from Changchun Temple. I passed by here and came here to visit Yun.
Mr. Zhongzi, please send a message."
Changchun Temple is quite famous among Taoists. The young Taoist priest did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly went inside to announce it, and then welcomed him into the main hall. After the two greeted each other, Yun Zhongzi said: "I wonder what I call this fellow Taoist?"
The Taoist nun smiled and said, "The real person calls me by my Taoist name Xuan Jing."
