Hongshi was unaware of everything that happened in Cining Palace. After summoning up the courage to tell Yinzhen the person he really wanted to marry, he felt extremely relaxed.
In the past seventeen years, he has been living a depressed life. The Queen placed great hopes on him, so he studied hard. Because his talent was not as good as his two younger brothers, he could only make up for his weakness with diligence, and others could read it once.
Remember, he had to read it two or three times, often until midnight, just so that the Queen would like it.
The emperor's mother was so kind to him, but he couldn't repay her even though he tried hard, so even when he learned that he couldn't marry Jiamo and his heart was bleeding, he still endured it and did not fight again.
But he happened to meet Concubine Xi in the Floating Bi Pavilion. Her words made Gong Xia's defense lines, which he had exhausted all his strength, collapse like paper. Concubine Xi was right, when everything was done
It was too late to regret when the outcome was finalized. Just miss it, or try your best before missing it. He really wanted to stay with Jiamo Changxiang, so he made up his mind to ask Huang Ama, even if he would be scolded by Huang Ama
No more hesitation.
Unexpectedly, Huang Ama did not reprimand him this time, but promised to speak to the Queen Mother on his behalf, which really made him overjoyed. Huang Ama... if he comes forward, the Queen Mother will definitely agree.
Thinking like this, Hongshi's heart was filled with joy. After practicing archery, he returned to Kunning Palace. As soon as he stepped into the hall, he saw Nala sitting on the throne with a solemn face, Jade and Sanfu.
All his confidants stood behind him without saying a word.
"Come back?" Nala asked, staring at Hongshi who walked in.
"Yes." Hongshi didn't know what happened, but he vaguely felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the palace. Just when he was about to bow to salute Nala, Nala raised his hand and said in a solemn voice: "No need, I am.
I can't bear the courtesy from my second elder brother."
As soon as these words came out, Hongshi was shocked and said hurriedly: "Why did Huang's mother say this? But what did I do wrong to make Huang's mother unhappy?"
Nala stood up holding Jade's hand, walked slowly to Hongshi, his eyes were as cold as frost, "What can the second elder brother do wrong? It's all my fault. From now on, the second elder brother will do anything wrong."
Brother, you need to salute me again, and you don’t need to call me Huang Niang anymore, I can’t bear it!”
Although Nala's tone was calm, as if he was talking about the most ordinary thing, when Hong Shi heard it, it was like thunder. He knew that Nala must be really angry this time, and he didn't care to ask what happened.
What's going on? He quickly knelt down and pulled Nala's skirt and said: "Huang'e Niang, please don't say such things. If you have done anything wrong, Huang'e Niang can just beat and scold you!"
"Sanfu, help the second brother up." Nala didn't even look at Hongshi. Her move really panicked Hongshi. She waved away Sanfu who was trying to help her and looked up at Nala's makeup.
With a delicate face, she said: "Your Majesty, I realize that I was wrong. Can you please forgive me?"
"Are you aware of your mistake?" Nala finally looked down at Hongshi, who was kneeling at his feet like a puppy afraid of being abandoned, and said, "Then you can tell me where I made my mistake."
"My son... my son..." Hongshi had no idea where he was wrong or how he could answer.
Nala did not give him a chance to continue thinking, and said indifferently: "You don't even know where you made a mistake, so how can you admit it? Okay, get up and go back to your brother's house."
"Huang'e Niang." Hongshi was shocked and frightened, and couldn't help but shed tears. He begged sadly: "I'm ignorant, I beg Huang'e Niang to make it clear. I will definitely change my mistakes. I just ask Huang'e Niang not to give up my son."
minister."
Seeing Hongshi crying, Nala, who had always looked indifferent, was finally moved. He sighed and said, "Maybe it's not you who is wrong, but me."
"Emperor's mother..." Before Hongshi could say anything, Nala had already closed his eyes and said, "That's all, from now on, you can do whatever you want, and I will never care about you again."
Hongshi knelt there helplessly, not knowing what to do. In the end, Sanfu couldn't bear it and whispered in his ear: "Second brother, Eunuch Xia who is next to the Queen Mother came here today and said
Second elder brother, you went to the emperor and told the emperor that you wanted the girl from Mr. Nasuo's family to be your direct descendant. The queen mother was very unhappy about this and ordered Eunuch Xia to come and give her a good scolding."
Although his voice was soft, there was no way he could escape Nala's ears in this hall. He immediately scolded Sanfu with a cold face: "Bold slave, who allowed you to talk too much here!"
"This slave deserves to die, please forgive me!" Sanfu trembled and quickly knelt down to apologize.
As for Hongshi, after hearing Sanfu's words, he finally understood why Nala was so angry. At the same time, he was surprised and happy. He was so happy that Huang Ama actually went to ask the Queen Mother, but he was shocked that the Queen Mother was so opposed to this matter.
At this point, he gritted his teeth and kowtowed, saying: "Huang'e Niang, I know that I deserve to die and caused trouble for Huang'e Niang, but I really like Jiamo, and I beg Huang'e Niang to make it happen!"
"When will I not help you?" Nala's anger, which had been suppressed for a long time, burst out at this moment, like a violent storm, and she hooded up towards Hongshi, "I said it in front of the Queen Mother for your sake.
How much better
But the Queen Mother doesn’t like Sochuro Jiamo, so what can I do? After coming back, I have told you about this matter, and you also promised me that you will obey the Queen Mother’s marriage proposal, but what happened?
But secretly behind my back
I ran to beg you, Emperor Ama, to turn a deaf ear to what I said. Well, now you are happy. The Queen Mother and the Emperor had a big argument over this matter, and even I was reprimanded." At this point, she said
He also said sadly:
"Although I am not your biological mother, you have been raised under my knees since you were a child. I have never treated you unfairly in the past seventeen years. But as for you, now you have begun to treat me sarcastically.
Violation."
"I don't have it. I just don't want to regret it in the future." Hongshi saw that Nala was sad when he said it. He was frightened and worried and said: "I know that I was wrong. I promised the emperor that I will never make the same mistake again in the future."
Yes, please forgive me.”
"No need." Nala took a deep breath, wiped away the tears that appeared in her eyes, and said indifferently: "The Queen Mother has dismissed the matter you asked your Majesty to ask for, so until now,
Your direct descendant is still Nala Lanling." A look flashed across Hongshi's face when he saw him.
A trace of deep disappointment and a frost-like coldness flashed through Nala's eyes, and he continued: "Remembering the love between mother and child for these seventeen years, I will go to the Queen Mother to beg you again and ask her to grant you a favor. No matter what.
Whether she agrees or not, the relationship between me and you ends here!"
As she said that, she was about to leave. Hongshi was horrified and quickly hugged Nala's feet and said urgently: "No, Huang'e Niang doesn't want it!"
