The first thousand and fifty-two chapters turn against each other (2)
Cry once, make trouble, and hang yourself!
Sheng Hong knew that Concubine Mei was making trouble, but he couldn't just ignore it.
After all, she is her mother, and her whole heart is devoted to him. He is not a stone-hearted person, so how can he ignore her?
Concubine Mei cried for a long time, and she finally stopped when she was tired of crying. Sheng Hong personally sent Concubine Mei back to Hanxiang Palace, and Concubine Mei held her hand and talked for a long time before she was able to escape.
At this time, it was already noon.
The sun was shining brightly in the sky, and the weather was hot. Sheng Hong's handsome face kept sweating, and he had nowhere to vent the frustration in his heart. He stood there for a moment.
Eunuch Wei felt sorry for his master and said in a low voice: "On a hot day, with so much tossing back and forth, the emperor must be hot and tired. Why don't you go back to the Qing Palace to bathe, change clothes and eat."
After being tormented by Concubine Mei for a long time, I had to slow down and try to coax the Queen.
Sheng Hong calmed down and said: "No need, I'm going to Jiaofang Hall."
Before Eunuch Wei could say anything, he stepped forward.
Eunuch Wei had served Sheng Hong for many years. He knew that it was useless to persuade him, so he had to run after him. He secretly sighed in his heart. It is most difficult for a man to be caught between his mother and daughter-in-law!
Concubine Mei is easier to coax. The Empress, on the other hand, has a soft face but a hard heart and a sharp tongue. She is the most difficult to deal with. I don’t know how much verbal effort the emperor will have to spend today.
…
Sheng Hong was also mentally prepared to be treated with cold faces and angry words.
He first met Xie Mingxi when he was eleven years old and married her when he was seventeen. Now Ah Luo is twelve years old and they have been married for twelve years. No one is more familiar with Xie Mingxi's temperament than him.
Xie Mingxi was so angry at Concubine Mei's fuss!
Whether he was angered or beaten today, Xie Mingxi's sullen mood had to be relieved!
After Sheng Hong made up his mind, he stepped into Jiaofang Hall.
Xie Mingxi came forward as usual, with a smile on her pretty face, and couldn't see anything wrong: "Today's weather is hot and hot, and the emperor's forehead and face are covered with sweat. Let's go to the bathroom first! I'll ask the royal kitchen to prepare food, and wait for the emperor to bathe and change clothes.
Afterwards, it’s time to have lunch.”
Sheng Hong: "..."
Not angry!
Didn’t fall out!
Not angry!
Smile and speak softly!
Sheng Hong, who was ready to be scolded and beaten, was quite flattered. He held Xie Mingxi's hand and whispered: "Mingxi, I know you have been wronged today. I'm sorry, it's all me..."
Xie Mingxi held Sheng Hong's hand with her backhand and laughed softly: "Let's not talk about this for now. Look at the stinky sweat on your body. Go take a shower and change clothes."
After experiencing his mother's crying and fussing for half a day, Xie Mingxi's gentle words greatly relieved Sheng Hong's sullen heart.
Sheng Hong stared at Xie Mingxi and responded with a smile.
After burning incense, Sheng Hong took a bath and changed into clean clothes, and sat in the cool dining room with an ice basin. In front of him was Xie Mingxi's gentle and smiling face, and in his mouth were delicious dishes. There were also dishes that Xie Mingxi had specially ordered to be prepared by the imperial dining room.
Sour plum soup to relieve summer heat.
This scene is enough to rank among the top three most pleasant scenes in Sheng Hong's life.
What could be more pleasant than a good and understanding wife?
…
After lunch, Sheng Hong's sullenness had long since disappeared.
The couple went back to the bedroom to take a nap, lying side by side on the bed and talking in low voices.
"Mingxi, I'm sorry." Sheng Hong sighed softly, full of shame: "My mother and concubine have been making trouble today, and you have been wronged."
Xie Mingxi smiled slightly: "I am a daughter-in-law who is very sharp-tongued and does not tolerate others. The one who is really offended is my mother-in-law."
The more reasonable Xie Mingxi was, the more guilty Sheng Hong felt: "Forget it. My mother-in-law has been making trouble in Yiqing Palace for a long time, and I can't lose my temper with her. It took a lot of words to coax her back to Hanxiang Palace."
"From now on, leave it to me to deal with the mother-in-law. Don't worry about it."
After a pause, Sheng Hong whispered again: "Mingxi, I'm sorry. I can suppress the courtiers' memorials, and I can also make people beat Sun Yushi. I can never be cruel to my mother and concubine."
"My mother-in-law has a weak temperament and has always relied on me as her support. In her opinion, everything she does is for my benefit. That's why she talks evil to you. Don't take her words to heart."
Xie Mingxi raised her eyes and looked at Sheng Hong: "To tell you the truth, although I left my mother and concubine in anger, I felt a little unhappy. However, I have also adjusted my mentality in the past half day."
"In the years since my mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been married, my mother-in-law has never been bossy and has been very generous to me, my daughter-in-law."
"My mother and concubine didn't know about what the two of us decided secretly. Even if she knew about it, she wouldn't understand and accept it. The commotion today is inevitable."
"Sheng Hong, we have to do something that no one has done before. This road is not easy. It is inevitable to be misunderstood, criticized, or criticized."
"I have been mentally prepared and have nothing to fear."
"You treat me wholeheartedly, and I treat you wholeheartedly. As husband and wife, we are of the same mind. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we will face them together."
In the dimly lit bedroom, Xie Mingxi's eyes burst out with dazzling light and energy.
Sheng Hong was so excited that he stretched out his hand and hugged Xie Mingxi tightly.
With you in this life, all women in the world have lost their color.
Mingxi, I will never let you down!
…
The quarrel between Concubine Mei and Empress Xie quickly spread in the palace. Soon, it spread outside the palace.
When Gu Shanchang and A Luo came back in the evening, both the old and the young were sulking with sullen faces.
Everyone has distances between relatives. A Luo is close to her mother, but has a mediocre affection for her grandmother. Gu Shanchang's heart is completely tilted towards Xie Mingxi's side.
Therefore, when the young and old learned about this, they were both angry with Concubine Mei.
It's just that it's not convenient to express this sullenness.
No matter what, Concubine Mei's position and seniority are there, and it's hard for anyone to say anything wrong about Concubine Mei.
Gu Shanchang looked at Xie Mingxi carefully: "Mingxi, are you okay?"
Xie Mingxi responded with a smile: "Master, don't you still trust me? I am the only one who can be annoyed by others, who can make me suffer!"
Having said that, Chief Gu couldn't help but mutter: "Of course other people don't have this ability. However, Mrs. Mei is Sheng Hong's mother. Sheng Hong has a hard mouth and a soft heart. When facing his own mother, he also
You can't make any moves like you did with Sun Yushi. Concubine Mei is so noisy, Sheng Hong can't openly attack you, otherwise, he will completely break his mother's heart..."
Thinking about it gives me a headache.
When dealing with Empress Dowager Yu, Sheng Hong and Xie Mingxi were of the same mind and had no worries.
When it comes to Concubine Mei, you have to be careful about the importance. Otherwise, the couple will be estranged from each other.
Listening to Gu Shanchang's concerned words, Xie Mingxi felt warm in her heart and answered them one by one without arguing.
In the evening, after Ah Luo finished her homework, she entered Xie Mingxi's dormitory with a heavy heart: "Queen Mother, I have something to tell you."
