Thirty-nine, the west wind worries about the green waves
When he went back the next morning, Xuan Ling informed the Sixth Palace that Concubine Shu was frightened by Xiong Zan and was too worried to be sick and unable to take care of the affairs of the harem. The imperial concubine, Concubine De, and Mrs. Zhenyi and Zhuang Min jointly coordinated the affairs of the Sixth Palace and chose Ye.
The graceful palace maid who volunteered to go out of the palace granted the marriage to the illustrious Khan, and the concubines and family members were not allowed to disturb the concubine Shu.
Mrs. Zhenyi's favor and honor were easily obtained overnight. Such honor would have aroused jealousy and criticism, but everyone clearly remembered her unrepentant affection that day. Even Mrs. Zhuang Min could not criticize her harshly.
, and no one else dares to say more.
It’s just that Jinxi occasionally said suspiciously: “It’s nothing else, it’s just that Xiong Zhen’s temper was so violent that day because Mrs. Zhuang Min’s little emperor behaved carelessly. Why didn’t the emperor blame her, and instead gave Mrs. Zhuang Min the assistant in charge of the Sixth Palace?
of honor?"
At that time, I was half-relying on the couch, stretched out my hand, cut out two pieces of ointment, applied it carefully to the mirror, rubbed my forehead and said, "Hu Yunrong has sharp ears and eyes, so the emperor cannot help but favor her."
Jin Xi pondered slightly, then her eyes suddenly twitched, "How did the emperor know that day that the empress would have a private meeting with the six kings in the afternoon? I'm afraid..."
My eyes darkened, "I know it well." I smiled slightly at the mirror, "Jin Xi, after applying this ointment, does it make you look more like a worry-stricken person?"
The corners of Jin Xi's eyes were slightly moist, "My wife has a noble position, but she has to accept this order to do this. I really can't bear it..."
Outside the window, one tree after another pomegranate flowers bloomed, shining brightly on the thin cloud shadow window screen, as if bright red clouds were floating. The bright and bright red reflected my calm face, making it even more
It looked like my face was turning blue, and I couldn't bear to see it. I said leisurely: "If you want your minister to die, he has to die. What's the difference between your favorite concubine and your ministers? If you cultivate it into a jade color and sell it to the emperor's family, your life will also belong to the emperor. If
If he really wants me to kill him with my own body, what other way can I do besides hitting myself to death?"
Jin Xi's face was full of sadness, "After a night of love between husband and wife, I always thought that the emperor would miss some old feelings..."
I smiled slightly and pressed my fingers on the bright red flower shadows on the cloud gauze, "Jin Xi, you have always been smart, why did you wake up today?"
Even though she was restrained by nature, she could not help but look angry. "In the hundred years since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, I have never heard of my slaves being humiliated like this because of my status as an imperial concubine."
"There's always the first one, right?" I held her hand and said, "Jinxi, I can't trust anyone else, so I can only go with you."
Her fingers were slightly cold, and she placed them beside me solemnly, "Since your Majesty entered the palace, I have never been separated from your Majesty for a day. If your Majesty doesn't say anything, I will follow you in life and death."
My heart feels warm, no matter how cold and upsetting the world is, I will always still have Jinxi, and there will always be someone who can give me a breath of warmth and comfort despite the frost.
Suddenly, Hua Yi was heard whispering from outside: "Your Majesty, the Ninth Princess and Concubine Yin are here."
Jin Xi said "Hey" and said, "Didn't it say that concubines, concubines, and family members are not allowed to come to visit Rouyi Hall, so as not to disturb the empress?"
I thought about it and said, "You can't even deny your sister a visit, right? It's just true to the facts, and I guess it must be Yurao who requested it, otherwise it would be difficult for the emperor to agree."
Jin Xi recited a Buddhist line and said, "Fortunately, the Fourth Miss is the Ninth Princess, otherwise I would have to worry."
I smiled and said, "Please come in."
When Yu Yin and Yu Rao came in, I was already lying on the bed. My hair was uncombed and was just disheveled. I tied it with a pearl forehead handkerchief, which made me look even more sickly. Yu Rao's face changed as soon as he saw it, and he said anxiously: "
I said that my sister was frightened that day, and it was true, she looked so sick."
Jin Xi hurriedly served tea and asked: "The third lady and the old lady never came?"
Yurao smiled and said: "Mom is the most afraid of entering the palace, and dad is also afraid that she will break the rules. Besides, my mother has been ill intermittently in recent years, and it is inconvenient for me to come to see my sister. The third sister and our sister-in-law are accompanying my mother.
Woolen cloth."
Yu Yin sat down next to my bed, looked at my face carefully, and said lightly: "Fortunately, the prince saved me quickly, otherwise the eldest sister..."
Yurao looked up at her and said with a smile: "If it weren't for the second sister's face, the second brother-in-law might not be willing to save my sister with all his heart."
Yu Yin's complexion changed slightly and he hesitated to speak, so he could only smile and count. Yu Rao smiled and said: "Second sister, where are the things we brought, Bin'er must be just chatting with people outside. That ginseng is mine.
I’ve been picking this one for a long time.”
Yu Yin got up and went out. Seeing that there was no one else around, Yu Rao straightened the pillow for me and leaned into my ear and said, "Jiulang has received the news. I heard that the emperor intends to marry me?"
I glanced at her and said, "Did the Sixth King tell the Ninth King? Does Yu Yin know about it?"
She shook her head and asked anxiously: "Is it true?" When she saw that I didn't answer in silence, her face suddenly changed and she said bitterly: "I knew he was not good, but I didn't want to be so unkind!"
I muttered slightly, "Don't act rashly or lose your sense of proportion." Seeing that she was in a hurry, I couldn't bear it, "I have my own way, don't be anxious."
The curtain moved slightly, and I saw Yu Yin curling in. She was dressed simply today, but she wore a crescent blue butterfly dress, tied with an apricot-colored sash, which made her waist look even more slender. The crescent moon is common at home.
There is a pair of jasper silk hairpins on the hairpin, which are extremely precious southern pearls and sparkle wherever there is little light.
Yu Rao couldn't hide his anxious look for a moment. Yu Yin's eyes were sharp and he smiled lightly: "Sisters really have a deep love. When the eldest sister gets sick, the fourth sister's tears will fall."
Yurao quickly turned her face and said with a smile: "My sisters, doesn't the second sister care about my elder sister?"
Yu Yin smiled brightly, "Of course not." She peeled off a grape and put it in my mouth. She lowered her head and said leisurely: "I heard that my eldest sister was sick. The prince originally wanted to come with me to visit, but it turned out early in the morning
The Ninth Prince's Mansion came to invite me again, so my fourth sister and I had to come together."
I half-leaned on my body and said feebly: "There are differences between men and women. It's not easy even for my brother and father to come together, let alone your brother-in-law."
Yu Yin said "Oh", and then there was a little warmth on the corners of her lips, "My eldest sister is sick and her mouth will inevitably feel bitter. Let's eat another grape."
I shook my head and Jin Xi said: "The empress was frightened. She has been unable to eat anything for the past few days. She has nightmares every night, palpitations and headaches. This servant is worried after seeing her."
Yu Yin frowned and said, "Has Imperial Physician Wen come to see you?"
Jin Xi said: "Mrs. Zhenyi's postpartum disorder has not been cured. The emperor asked Imperial Physician Wen to take a good look at her. So in the past few days, the imperial physicians nearby have come to see her."
The worry in Yu Yin's eyebrows deepened, and she said softly: "Is it because the prince saved you a few days ago, the emperor is not happy..." She bit her lip with difficulty, "The prince has been unhappy since he returned.
I asked him about it, but he didn't say anything."
When Yu Yin said this, even Yu Rao felt a little worried and looked at me with bright autumn eyes.
Many truths often make people feel cruel, so why bother to expose them. I smiled and said: "Don't think too much. How can the emperor be unhappy when the prince saves me and Run'er? Do you want to watch me and Run'er die tragically? Run'er is the emperor.
Where are your flesh and blood?"
Yu Yin breathed a sigh of relief and asked again: "Has the emperor come to see it?"
I said, "I just came here at noon. I was probably busy with government affairs, so I sat there for most of an hour and then left."
Yu Yin nodded slightly and said: "Your Majesty has been really busy these past two days. I heard that the beautiful ones will be selected from the maids of Yeting to marry the illustrious Khan. Fortunately, they are palace maids. If the marriage is made with a girl from the clan, I am afraid that the court will have to marry her.
The discussion was heated."
I asked casually: "Who did you pick in the end?"
"Mr. Lin from Liyuan Qinyuan in the palace is eighteen years old. Both her parents are dead. She looks quite colorful. I heard she will be sent to a hotel tonight." Yu Yin said with a hint of pity, "Although
It's a marriage, but with such status and being from a different race, I'm afraid it will be difficult to move forward in Hehe."
"Thousands of years of pipa playing nonsense..." I sighed quietly, feeling sad.
After chatting like this for a while, it was getting late and the two of them saw that I was just looking sleepy, so they got up and left.
Yurao first went to the side hall to see some children. Yuyin took a step back and finally returned to me alone. "Luckily, the emperor did not pursue my eldest sister's matter this time, but it will never happen again," she said solemnly.
: "Your Majesty is my husband, I'm really worried."
"Don't worry," I said clearly with a slightly confused expression, "I don't want to get involved with the prince either."
Yu Yin's eyelashes drooped slightly, as if she still felt uneasy. She remained silent for a moment and left quietly.
It was night. I sat in a small sedan and was sent out of the palace. I was dressed according to the attire of a palace maid who was sent for marriage and marriage. I wore a cloud-colored blouse and a long gauze skirt decorated with silver leaves. My waist was tied up and my hair hung down. It was silent for a long night.
Occasionally, I heard a drumming sound in the distance, and I could clearly understand that my heartbeat was obviously slightly faster at this time.
The steps of the eunuch carrying the sedan were fast and steady, and the rustle of his footsteps was like the whimpering wind passing by in the alley. I suddenly felt a little nostalgic. If I really accidentally died outside the palace, maybe tonight
It was the last time I heard the wind in Yongxiang. The growing sadness made me couldn't help but lift the sedan curtain. In the night, a huge black wing drooped from the sky. The vermilion palace walls on both sides spread like two giant dragons.
I can't see the sky above. The red walls are locked and the palaces are numerous. It's really like that. Compared with the previous time I left the palace, I feel even more uncertain this time. In the past, I at least knew where I was going and how to get there. Now, my life and death are all uncertain.
Things are just like an inch of grass swaying in the wind, completely out of your control.
As if it was just a blink of an eye, the sedan has sent me outside the city gate. The night is like thick ink, and there are countless torches burning far and near, emitting the fragrance of pine wood, and I can only hear the snoring "bang bang——" of the horses.
With the jingling of horse bells, thousands of people and horses were completely silent. The large purple-gold tent carriage that Lin was traveling in stopped ten steps in front of him. Moge saw that I got off the sedan chair alone, followed only by Jin Xi.
He just smiled and said, "You are a couple with the emperor, and he doesn't come to give you a send-off. It's really heartless."
I ignored him and just held Jin Xi's hand to get into Lin's tent car and sit firmly. Then he said calmly: "We must say goodbye after thousands of miles. There is no need for such a long-lasting love between children."
There was a smile in Moge's eyes, "I just like your temperament."
I didn't look at him, I just straightened the tassels on my dress and said, "If you want me to die, I have to die. I have nothing to say."
Mogeran smiled and said: "Yes. It's rare for an emperor to give up his love. Otherwise, even if the Khan's army is pressing down on the border, he may not have any other options if he doesn't let me go."
I raised the corner of my lips in response to him, and only half-closed my eyes to rest my mind. He didn't say much, and casually pulled down Mrs. Lin next to me, who looked timid and meek, and shouted: "Ride a horse by yourself!"
Mrs. Lin didn't dare to cry, so she had to go by herself.
We traveled day and night without much time to rest. Although I was able to avoid the wind and sand in the car, it was very hard because of the bumpy carriage and horses and not being able to sleep well day and night. Not to mention the many dowry women, it was even more miserable.
Ge was just leading the army forward, not talking to me, nor even getting close to me. I pressed the thin paper bag on my waist from time to time, and I couldn't help but hesitate a lot.
