When Yu Wenrui heard this, his handsome face changed immediately, his narrow eyes were stained with a dark green light, and he said coldly: "Yan'er, what kind of dream are you dreaming about?"
Situ Yan's beautiful little face was full of embarrassment, and she seemed to be suffering from it. After a while, she asked in a submissive manner: "Your Majesty, could this dream be a bad omen?"
Yu Wenrui didn't speak, but there was a feeling of uneasiness in his heart. He suddenly remembered something that happened before when the emperor was still in power. That year, his favorite concubine died of illness. In order to save this concubine, he invited the most powerful person in the capital.
Famous Taoist priests and wizards came to the palace, but they never thought that in order to make money, these Taoist priests and wizards took the opportunity to cause trouble in the harem and secretly taught the concubines the art of witchcraft.
And the method of witchcraft is to make a villain, and then write a person's birth date and horoscope on it, and then prick it with a needle, making the person who was pricked miserable. It is this kind of witchcraft that makes the person suffer.
The originally deceitful harem became even worse. In order to remove the thorn in his side, some concubines even falsely accused the other party of cursing the late emperor. The late emperor immediately got angry and removed all the concubines involved in this matter. He also issued an order that if this happened again in the harem,
For cultivating witchcraft, all men, women, old and young will be executed or exiled.
Is Yan'er's sudden dream like this really hinting at something? Yu Wenrui thought, and suddenly remembered the recent war at the border. His originally uneasy mood became more and more upset. Yan'er dreamed that she was pricked by many needles.
Could something unfortunate be happening? Could it be that his charioteer died on the battlefield? Thinking of this, his nerves became more and more tense, his face became gloomy and ugly, the corners of his lips tightened, and a trace of cold air leaked out...
The night is getting deeper and darker, as if endless thick ink is heavily smeared on the sky, not even the glimmer of stars.
Suddenly there was a loud noise from the window, and Yun Jingchu woke up immediately, with cold sweat on her smooth forehead and fear in her eyes.
She stood up slowly, and then realized that the window was blown open by the wind, so after closing the window, she felt her whole body getting cold. She wiped it gently, and then lay down again, but for some reason, she
But she couldn't sleep anymore, and she felt inexplicably uneasy. She had a bad feeling that a disaster was about to come.
That night, the wind became stronger and stronger, indicating that autumn was about to pass and a snowstorm was coming.
***
Early the next morning, as soon as Yun Jingchu helped Concubine Hui come out of the palace, she saw Lu Yi walking in, "Your Majesty, Princess Helena is here and is waiting in the front hall."
Yun Jingchu frowned slightly and seemed to have some thoughts in her mind. This princess did not go to see the Queen first, but came to see Concubine Hui first. Is this too illogical?
Concubine Hui nodded, and then walked out with Yun Jingchu.
In the front hall, Helena had already put on the attire of Wen Yuan's concubine. She was wearing a white gauze skirt and tied an elegant bow with pale pink silk cigarettes around her waist. She was sitting on a chair. Seeing Concubine Hui appear, she immediately stood up and stepped forward.
, Blessed Fushen said, "I, my concubine, see the Imperial Concubine."
"It's just the two of us here. Princess, there's no need to be polite. Please sit down quickly." Concubine Hui said with a faint smile.
Helena nodded, looked at Concubine Hui with a pair of watery eyes, waved her hand, and then A Li behind her presented the exquisite snack box. Helena showed an elegant smile and said, "I know that the imperial concubine is a tea lover. This is
We have the best tea in Qitian Kingdom, so we specially brought some to give to the Imperial Concubine."
"Thank you for your kindness, princess, and you brought tea. Let's taste it and talk." Concubine Hui showed no thoughts on her face and said, "Jingchu, make a pot of tea and bring it up."
"Yes." Yun Jingchu said respectfully. As soon as she walked up, Helena was slightly startled. She immediately recognized this as the palace maid who caused her to fall into the lotus pond that day. She really didn't expect that she would be from Concubine Hui's palace.
maid.
Yun Jingchu bowed respectfully towards Helena, then took the snack box with both hands, then stepped back and took a gentle sniff. It was indeed a rare and good tea. It seemed that this princess was really sincere.
After thinking about it, a faint trace of earth curled up at the corner of his mouth, and he quickly held the jade pot and filled the empress and princess with tea respectively.
Concubine Hui gently picked up the ceramic cup and took a sip: "This tea tastes very good. The aroma of tea lingers in your mouth, and the fragrant tea flows through it."
Putting down the tea cup, she returned to the subject, "I wonder what the princess has come to see me for?" In fact, she felt a little puzzling about the princess's sudden visit. After all, in the palace, if you want to see the queen first, it is also to see the queen.
It's against the rules to pay him a visit, and I'm afraid that someone will make a fuss about it.
"My elder sister's piano skills are amazing, and my younger sister is willing to let her down." Helena raised her blue eyes slightly, paused before continuing: "Besides my piano skills, there is one more thing I want to ask my elder sister."
"I don't dare to ask for advice. If there is anything my sister has to do, you can just tell me." Concubine Hui asked softly.
"Actually, it's nothing. I just want my sister to tell me what kind of emperor the emperor is?" Although she was worried about Concubine Hui defeating her in public, but looking at the palace, besides Situ Yan, the most popular person was the emperor.
It was this imperial concubine that she doted on, so she came here early in the morning to get the Buddhist scriptures. After all, there were still a few days before her actual canonization.
"It turns out that the princess is here for the emperor's business." Concubine Hui smiled faintly, "Actually, I can also see that the emperor likes the princess. If not, he wouldn't..."
"Can't do anything?"
"I won't look at you in public with amazement in my eyes." As she said that, her face was a little bitter. Looking at Helena, a hint of envy appeared, "Although everyone envy me and the Queen.
Madam, after that banquet, I don’t know how many people envied the princess. In this harem, no one is waiting for the emperor to take a look. To be honest with the princess, I have been following the emperor for several years, and the emperor has never seen this.
A glance at the palace until..."
As Concubine Hui spoke, she paused for a moment and said the rest of her words secretly in her heart. It was not until Yun Jingchu appeared that the emperor noticed her and became the imperial concubine...
She hesitated to speak, but Helena had a different opinion. She heard that after Yu Wenrui ascended the throne as emperor, he began to have concubines, but he only loved Situ Yan all the time. It seems that this rumor is true. Thinking of this, Helena's heart
An idea immediately ignited.
Yun Jingchu could see Helena's thoughts. It seemed that this princess was definitely not as simple as a marriage. She seemed to be prepared. I believe that the harem will be even more lively in the future.
Concubine Hui looked at Helena and continued: "If the princess can think about it carefully, maybe she can see the difference between the emperor's views on you and us."
When Helena heard what Concubine Hui said, she had no intention of continuing to ask, so she stood up and said: "Then I won't disturb Concubine Huang's breakfast. Na'er will leave first."
"Okay." Concubine Hui smiled warmly, waved her hand towards Yun Jingchu and said, "Jingchu, please see your highness off."
"Yes, empress." After saying this, Yun Jingchu walked to Helena's side and waited respectfully for her to take the first step.
With A Li's support, Helena was about to turn around when her eyes fell on Yun Jingchu, a hint of sarcasm flashed in her eyes, and she walked ahead arrogantly, while Yun Jingchu smiled and quickly
The ground follows their steps...
When she walked to the door, Yun Jingchu looked at their retreating figures. She glanced to another place from the corner of her eye and found a palace maid hiding in the distance, peeking over here.
Yun Jingchu immediately looked away and thought thoughtfully, who could this palace maid belong to?
At this time, a white figure walked slowly not far away. He tilted his head slightly, feeling that his heart was like duckweed floating on the water, very impetuous. He didn't know why, but when he looked at his sister like this,
He was also very unhappy. He didn't know why he was depressed. Maybe he was unhappy in the first place, or maybe it was his sister who was unhappy.
But why is my sister always so worried?
"Sister..." Yu Wenyi couldn't help but go up and said with a pout, "What are you thinking about?"
Yun Jingchu was stunned, then immediately turned around, looked into those beautiful eyes, and said with a frown: "Why are you here?"
"Sister, don't you want to see me?" Yuwen Yi's handsome little face flashed with hurt, and he said sadly: "Sister, don't you like me?"
Is this silly prince too sensitive? He was so sensitive that she felt helpless... Yun Jingchu frowned slightly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Sister, I'm sorry..." Yu Wenyi said softly. He shouldn't have said these words to make his sister unhappy.
When Yun Jingchu heard what he said, she felt embarrassed. She smiled slightly and said: "Little fool, don't go to the palace often in the future. It's not that my sister doesn't like you. On the contrary, I like little fool very much, so I don't want you to
Be hurt.”
Yu Wenyi raised his eyes with some understanding, "Sister, do you dislike me for being like this and causing you trouble?"
Yun Jingchu paused slightly and shook her head: "No." After all, he is still a prince no matter what, and he should be the one causing him trouble.
Yu Wenyi's clean eyes suddenly couldn't see the bottom of her eyes: "Sister, are you still perfunctory with me until now?"
"I'm telling the truth." Yun Jingchu stared at her and said very seriously, "You are the simplest and most innocent person, and you can always be so simple and innocent. I rarely believe anyone now, but you
But he is the only person I trust." When Yun Jingchu said this, she stared at him and smiled. In fact, she had an indescribable trust in Yu Wenyi in her heart.
Under the morning sun, Yun Jingchu's beautiful eyes were so dazzling that it was impossible to look away.
Yu Wenyi suddenly held her hand, and a serious look appeared on his handsome face, and he said firmly: "Sister, it's okay if I don't go into the palace often, as long as you follow me out of the palace, okay?"
Yun Jingchu's eyes were cold. She never thought that letting her leave here would be equivalent to giving up revenge. She could never forget... when her legs were cut off and her eyes were lost, the flesh and blood were scattered everywhere.
She remembered all the scenes, as well as the tragic humiliation, sorrow and despair of more than a hundred people in the Shen family, and the pain and tragedy that Situ Yan had truly endured in this life made her unable to let go...
Yun Jingchu took a breath and said firmly, "There is absolutely no way I will leave the palace!"
When Yu Wenyi heard what she said, his face was filled with displeasure. Without saying anything, he turned around and left in the direction of leaving the palace. His back looked so lonely.
Butler Han is right, it is impossible for my sister to leave the palace...
