Chapter 43: Breaking the Luo Yi Can't Keep It (Part 2)
Being able to see Meizhuang again today was something I had never imagined, and I was almost overjoyed. WWW.tsxsw.COM However, there was even more unspeakable sadness in the joy. After four years of separation, we were finally able to see each other. However,
Xuanqing comes back. When he comes back, I will take "Seven Days of Losing Souls" and then leave Ganlu Temple and Lingyun Peak. From now on, I will live incognito and never see Meizhuang again. Thinking of this, my heart wanders.
A cold feeling of separation, like the cold air outside the house, gradually forced its way onto my face, forcing two lines of tears from my eyes.
Meizhuang said distressedly: "What's going on? I started crying again."
I said with tears in my eyes: "You always do this for me..."
Mei Zhuang hurriedly wiped away my tears and said softly: "What's the matter? You and I are just like sisters. Your Yuyue, I treat it like my own daughter." Her smile became even brighter,
"You have never seen Haoyue, so you don't know how cute she is. Without her, my days in the palace would have been like years."
How come I have never seen Wuyue? Every two months, Xuanqing will send me a portrait of Wuyue. I know exactly how much taller she has grown, whether she has gained weight or lost weight. However, these words were spoken in front of me.
Meizhuang couldn't say that, so he just smiled, "With you and Concubine Jing taking care of me, I'm always at ease." I calmed down, and just then I remembered something, so I asked: "It's not easy to get out of the palace, how can you get out today?
Of? And it’s still in the first month.”
Meizhuang's expression suddenly became complicated and unclear, as gloomy as the heavy sky before snow. She sighed softly and said, "Do you still remember Rui Bin?"
I was startled, and the memories of the past clearly flashed through my mind. Ruibin Luo, that woman as bright and strong as a shooting star, the one who would say, "If I fall into dust, I would rather die clinging to a branch," her eyes were clear and clear.
The woman from Bo finally fulfilled her prophecy and hanged herself with a rope to prove her innocence.
Meizhuang said: "Rui concubine hanged herself to death. The palace concubine is guilty of committing suicide, and An Lingrong deliberately instigated her to accuse her of kidnapping the emperor. Therefore, after her death, Zi Palace has been parked in the Yannian Hall.
She was not even qualified to be sent to the concubine's mausoleum for burial. For so many years, because the emperor and the queen had not spoken, no one paid attention to her, and she stayed in the Yannian Hall. At the beginning of the first month of the first year, the concubines of Changgui and the concubine of the imperial concubine were harmonious.
Suddenly, I had a high fever. Although I saw the imperial doctor, the Master of Tongming Hall said that it was because the souls of the concubines had not been saved. After all, there was only one Rui concubine. Because she was convicted after death, she could not be saved in Tongming Hall, so she had to
Send the coffin to Ganlu Temple."
I said, "It's unlucky to do this in the first month of the year. Why did I leave it to you?"
"The mage of Tongming Hall said that a woman who has not been summoned by the emperor for a long time must be mentally and physically calm before she can do such an errand. Of course, I am not the only one. It's just that the other concubines felt unlucky and refused, so it was my turn. Rui Concubine is a poor person.
, I also thought I could come and see you."
I said a faint "Oh", and suddenly I felt something was wrong, but I couldn't put my finger on what was wrong. I was thinking for a while, and suddenly I saw the corners of Mei Zhuang's eyes were reddish, as if he was about to stop talking.
Meizhuang has a cold heart now, and she has always had a hard temper. She is not someone who sheds tears easily. Besides...she has always been careful about matters of life and death, and she would never be involved in such things as offering the souls of the dead to be saved.
I suddenly became suspicious, "Meizhuang, did you really come to Ganlu Temple to see me just to deliver Rui Bin's coffin?"
Meizhuang slowly calmed down and smiled, and sighed quietly outside the window. At that time, the heavy snow melted, and it was cold on the mountain. There were still pieces of unmelted snow scattered on the roadside stones. After accumulating for a long time, the snow color also faded slightly.
The black clouds were stained with countless dust, and they still felt unsightly, and half of the clean and white snow at first was gone.
Her eyes suddenly became silent, like a deep ancient well. She stared at me closely and said word by word: "Now that you have noticed, I can no longer hide it from you. I have taken great pains to come out to see you this time. I am in harmony with the Emperor
Ji took some fever medicine, and bribed the mage of Tongming Palace to talk about the concubine Rui Zi Palace’s salvation, and the concubine who has been unfavored for a long time must be escorted to Ganlu Temple, so that she can find a way to see you."
My heart felt heavy and hot, my throat ached slightly, and I felt even more uneasy. I stared at her and said, "You are trying so hard, something important must have happened - is Longyue sick? Or, the Queen is worried about
Did she take action?" I didn't dare to think any further, Haoyue, my Hazy Moon - no!
My body was shaking slightly, Mei Zhuang held me down and looked into my eyes, "It's not Haoyue, she is fine, nothing happened." I suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, luckily it was not Haoyue.
Meizhuang's expression was worried and anxious. She gritted her silver teeth slightly, closed her eyes and said, "It's your brother, Zhen Heng - he's crazy!"
I was stunned and almost couldn't believe it. My brother, my heroic brother, how could he be crazy? How could he be? He was just exiled to Lingnan, and Xuanqing had been sending people to take care of him. How could it be?
My heart was beating violently, and I bit my lip subconsciously. It hurt. It hurt so much. I was not dreaming, and Meizhuang would not make such a joke with me. Tears flowed down hot, and the temperature almost burned me.
.
I murmured in a daze, "No way - absolutely not - how could my brother go crazy when he is so good!"
Meizhuang said deeply: "Indeed not. Although your brother was exiled, he has always been in good health. King Qinghe sympathized with your brother and secretly sent someone to take care of him. Concubine Jing and I also knew about this. But when King Qinghe went there according to the order
Ten days after southern Yunnan, the news came from the people who were looking after your brother in the south of Lingnan from Prince Qinghe's house - your brother learned about the death of your sister-in-law Xue and your nephew. He couldn't bear the shock and vomited blood. He woke up and became conscious.
It's abnormal. This was supposed to be the news reported to Prince Qinghe's Mansion. Prince Qinghe was not here and they couldn't make up their minds, so they had no choice but to report it to Concubine Jing, who quickly told me."
I listened quietly, unable to move at all. Hot tears tickled my cheeks, like the sharp claws of countless centipedes scratching across my face.
Meizhuang said: "I myself have been hesitating for two days whether I should tell you that you are practicing in Ganlu Temple. You will only be sad if you know these things. But I have to say that I am worried about your safety. I could have let Wen Shichu
Let me tell you, but he is soft-hearted when it comes to your affairs, and he won't have the heart to tell you if he can't make up his mind, so I simply won't tell him. I can also tell Fangruo to tell you, but I don't worry. Now in the palace
, I don’t trust anyone except myself, I can only tell you about such a big thing myself.”
Meizhuang's armor pinched my shoulder, and the sharp sting spread out little by little. I started to wake up, "How could my brother know about the death of his sister-in-law and Zhining? Hasn't he always kept it a secret? How could it be possible?
Suddenly I knew it!”
Meizhuang's expression was deep, and he lowered his voice and said: "That's the problem. It's obvious that everything was concealed. Why did King Qinghe go to southern Yunnan, but the news leaked to Lingnan?"
My mind was spinning, and I became clear in an instant, and I said with hatred: "They came prepared! They must be people from the palace. Knowing that the Six Kings went to southern Yunnan, they had an opportunity to reveal the death of my sister-in-law and Zhining.
Brother!"
"That's right." Meizhuang pondered for a moment, "I'm afraid it was the Queen who got them out of here, or Guan's people outside. It's just that it's been so long, and they're still chasing after them like this.
."
I felt chills all over my body, my voice became hoarse, and I said solemnly: "What's even more puzzling is why my brother didn't leak the news when he was first exiled to Lingnan, but now there are still people chasing him."
All of these, coupled with all the confusion and sadness I felt when I met Gu Jiayi during our autumn outing last year, made my mind so confusing and tangled that I could hardly think clearly.
Meizhuang pushed me down hard and sat down. His eyes were as sharp as a knife, and he said, "Now is not the time to cry bitterly. The first thing that matters most is that your brother has been plotted against. Who knows who they will deal with next?"
You? Although you are practicing and are far away from the court, you still need to make plans in advance, which is why I tried my best to come out to see you. The second is to find a way to bring your brother back from Lingnan for treatment. If you take care of him, he may be cured.
.You don’t have much contact with King Qinghe, so I guess it’s because you are not familiar with him. I will find a way to tell King Qinghe about this to Concubine Jing, and we can make plans as soon as he comes back to secretly take your brother back to the capital for treatment.”
I tried my best to calm down and held on to the corner of my clothes, "Meizhuang, you are right. The deceased has passed away, and the most important thing is to make plans for the living. I will also try my best to find a way to treat my brother."
Meizhuang was about to say something more, but Bai Ling came in from outside and said, "Reporting to your Majesty, the time has come. We have to go back to the palace before dark. It's time to start the ceremony."
Mei Zhuang nodded, "I know. Please let the sedan chair be prepared first. I will have a few more words with Master Mochou."
Bai Ling leaned forward and said, "Yes. Madam, just don't miss the time." After saying that, he respectfully left.
Meizhuang held my arm and said calmly, "I'm leaving. Just remember my words and take good care of yourself. This is the most important thing."
I nodded vigorously, tears streaming down my face, "I know. If I can't even protect myself, let alone plan for others, I will be fine."
Meizhuang said with a moved expression: "Since what happened to your brother has happened, there is no point in being sad anymore. Anyway, let's go back and think of a solution together."
I nodded and said with tears in my eyes: "The palace is dangerous, so you have to be careful. I don't know when we will meet again."
Meizhuang was very sad when he heard this, and turned away slightly, "As long as we are healthy, it doesn't matter whether we meet or not."
Caiyue put the crane cloak on Meizhuang, called Bai Ling in, and helped Meizhuang out with one hand on the left and the other on the right. Meizhuang looked back frequently, but due to etiquette restrictions, he couldn't say another word, so he got on the sedan chair.
.
The warm sedan chair in Meizhuang meandered away. I looked far away, and saw the mountains were faintly green, covered with scattered snow, and there seemed to be several cracks on the meandering green, which was unbearable to see.
I turned my head with sadness, could the sufferings of my Zhen family be so endless?
