Spring apricots around the palace wall

Chapter 121

if……

Assuming the emperor already knew about Xia Qiuling and Xia Yong's old relationship, then he would still pamper Xia Qiuling in a friendly manner?
It is also possible that it would be embarrassing for a concubine to run with others in public. In order to avoid embarrassment and want to catch adultery, the dog emperor first gave Xia Qiuling a little temptation to choose the right side when the incident happened.

Ruan Wei acted coquettishly in a soft voice: "Your Majesty, I have never seen Qi Yuan's wedding ceremony before, and I want to take a look."

Bringing an extra concubine is also a trivial matter, Xuan Wei readily responded: "Okay, you go too."

Ruan Wei glanced at Xia Qiuling, she didn't seem to have other thoughts for the time being, she was still immersed in the joy of being finally remembered by the emperor, it is estimated that the emperor treated her so tenderly last night, so that she had the dream of rising to the top again .

Even if she didn't think about Xia Yong at this time, what about Xia Yong?Whether Xia Yong will lose control when he sees her is uncertain.
-
Ruan Wei excused that Xia Qiuling was going back to her mother's house today, and enthusiastically condescended to push Xia Qiuling into her bedroom to dress her up.

She also found that Xia Qiuling's face in the bronze mirror was not very good-looking when she was out of the emperor's sight.

"Feel something wrong?" Ruan Wei whispered in her ear, "Then what should I do?"

Xuan Wei probably thought that what he did was smooth and natural, but even Xia Qiuling could see something strange in it.

"Is there any use in pretending to be unwell or dizzy? Madam, do you have any medicine that can make me unable to get up?" Xia Qiuling was already flustered and went to the doctor in a hurry.

Ruan Wei shook her head: "Impossible, since the emperor has become suspicious, you are in a certain situation now, and there is no silver 300 taels here, and I have to drag you into the water if I use medicine for you."

"Then what should we do?" Xia Qiuling's voice was trembling.

Ruan Wei looked at the empress-like face in the bronze mirror, and straightened Xia Qiuling's face.

"If you still want to live, just straighten your back and be more confident... If you feel guilty, no one can save you."

Xia Qiuling looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and Concubine Ruan, who was beside her with a firm voice, suddenly felt that Concubine Ruan really wanted to help her.
-
Xia Qiuling was actually not very courageous. When she saw this familiar mansion from afar, she panicked, but she got off the sedan chair calmly, and followed the empress and concubine Ruan into the mansion.

The majestic Xia Mansion is full of festive red eyes.

As soon as the emperor arrived, the sound of beating gongs and drums stopped abruptly, and everyone knelt down to greet them, shouting long live the emperor and a thousand years old empress.

The one who was surrounded by the crowd, kneeling at the front and wearing a red auspicious dress, wearing this big knot, isn't it Xia Yong?

Because of the disparity in family status, Xia Yong didn't need to come to marry the bride, the bride would be sent to marry him.

After entering the main room, according to the etiquette, Xia Yong, as the groom's official, specially came to thank the emperor with a wine glass, and he was willing to honor his presence.

Yu Chumeng didn't drink the wine he handed over, but said to Xuanwei: "I have a few words to say to Xia Yong."

Xuan Weirao expressed interest: "I forgot about the Puhua Temple, and still want to face him alone?"

Yu Chumeng said with a smile: "Having experienced that, the emperor still came to Xia Yong's wedding banquet. Isn't it because the emperor looks like my father?"

Seeing Xuanwei's not-too-surprised expression, Yu Chumeng was sure that he knew, and he knew it all but kept silent.

Yu Chumeng continued: "I have been the eldest daughter in my family for many years, and suddenly I have an older brother, so I can't help but feel a lot of emotion in my heart. Today, my brother is getting married, and the emperor won't allow me to say a few words of my own to him?"

Xuan Wei was choked up by her unreasonable reason.

It sounds like that's really the case. After all, he has a brother-sister relationship. If he refuses, it will seem that he is very unreasonable.

Xuan Wei looked at Xia Yong coldly, Xia Yong heard everything he said, lowered his head and looked hidden in the gloom, seemingly unresponsive.

Still hesitating whether to answer or not, Yu Chumeng said again: "The emperor doesn't allow it, so that's all."

After speaking, a hint of disappointment flashed across her face.

Xuan Wei didn't think about it, and agreed directly: "You guys have a chat."

He got up and called Concubine Ruan and Xia Qiuling: "Follow me, let's visit Xia's mansion."

Even though the three of them had gone out, there were still people waiting in the main room, and there were still a few noble ladies sitting not far away, but the sound of gongs and drums outside covered most of the sound of talking and laughing.

Therefore, when Yu Chumeng spoke, no one else could hear him except Xia Yong.

"Don't be confused, you know why the emperor brought her here, don't jump in."

Xia Yong raised his eyes in surprise, as if he didn't expect the queen to think about him.

With just one glance, he lowered his eyes again: "Father said that today's big wedding is designed to fulfill Qiu Ling and I, he said that the emperor will definitely bring Qiu Ling here, he will create opportunities for me and he has prepared the carriage... "

"If you think your life is too long, try it," Yu Chumeng said bitterly, "Haven't you woke up yet?"

Xiahou treated him like this, and he still trusts this father.

Yu Chumeng was a little unbelievable, Xia Yong was already 26 years old, so he really didn't feel the love between father and son is it true or not?

Xia Yong laughed: "I have only been framed by one person in my life, and I have only been beaten by one person, and I have also obeyed your will to kill the witness my sister protected. You promised to let my mother go if you did that. , the result? My mother died, and my sister was under house arrest. Now you pretend to want to save me? Empress, what are you going to do?"

It's such a thing.

In order for him to do that, Yu Chumeng promised him something he couldn't do.In order to clear Weiwei's innocence, she used everything she could, even coaxing and cheating.

But if Xia Yong is not stupid, he will not choose to believe her again.

Yu Chumeng had a headache, rubbed her temples, and said weakly: "I promise your sister, let you live well."

What's more, if something happened to Xia Yongru, Concubine Ming would definitely retract her confession and bite them severely.

Xia Yong knew that the younger sister she was talking about was Concubine Ming, and it could only be Concubine Ming.

He looked a little bit more disappointed, and slowly said: "I just want to try to see if I can take Qiu Ling out of here. I know there is a high probability that it is impossible, but even if I die, it doesn't matter. There's no point in living like this for me."

"You're not afraid of death, not necessarily Xia Qiuling."

Yu Chumeng persuaded earnestly: "Do you know that the consequence of failure is to kill her?"

Xia Yong laughed: "She is the kind of ungrateful person, so why not die? If it wasn't for me, she would have starved to death on the street."

It seems quite reasonable.

Yu Chumeng was immediately convinced by him.Thinking about it according to his logic, there is nothing wrong with dying together, anyway, he is seriously tired of work...

No, no, he really can't die.Yu Chumeng quickly changed his mind to persuade him: "Xia Qiuling loves you deeply, she loves you so much that she followed the emperor to see you get married, are you really willing to let her die?"

"She loves me?"

Xia Yong couldn't believe it.
