long live the queen

Chapter 53

The expression on Yang Yi's face completely explained what it means to be "dumb".

Zheng Xiang frowned and said: "Let's be clear, what do you mean Zhuang Concubine and Huang Guifei are fighting? What's going on?"

The little servant said with a sad face: "That's right... the imperial concubine went to Jingren Palace to meet Concubine Zhuang, she said that Concubine Zhuang was not disciplined, she asked someone to teach Concubine Zhuang a lesson, but no one did anything, so she rushed up by herself. I heard that the two are still fighting, no one dares to go up to try to persuade the fight..."

Yang Yi stood up abruptly, walked out quickly, stopped at the gate of the palace, hesitated for a few seconds, but thought that Wei Yunqing might suffer a loss and get injured at this moment, so he didn't care about that much, so he ran away quickly go out.

When Yang Yi came to Jingren Palace, Wei Yunqing and Concubine Zhuang were still fighting.

It was the first time for everyone present to see a fight between women, especially those in the deep palace, and the parties involved were two of such high status, it was an eye-opener.In their eyes, concubines are all noble and dignified, and they shouldn't get together like market women like this.

At this moment, Wei Yunqing and Concubine Zhuang were wrestling together, their hairstyles were in a mess, their clothes were in a mess, and their accessories were all over the floor.

Yang Yi walked over quickly and shouted eagerly: "What are you all doing blankly? Hurry up and pull them away!"

The arrival of the emperor was a blessing to everyone present. Those who were shocked by Wei Yunqing's threat and dared not go forward hurriedly pulled the two apart.

"Let go, I won't fight anymore." After being pulled away, Wei Yunqing reprimanded in a low voice.

Everyone looked at each other, let go of her hesitantly, but spontaneously stood between her and Concubine Zhuang, lest she suddenly make trouble again.

No one expected that as soon as they let go of Wei Yunqing, she turned back, rushed to Yang Yi's side quickly, grabbed his arm and said, "You can figure it out, let's go, let's find a place to talk."

Naturally, Wei Yunqing didn't really think about what to do to Concubine Zhuang from the beginning. She was provocative and deliberately rushed up to fight, just to lure Yang Yi over... The concubine was fighting, and the people around didn't dare to stop her, so she could only call Yang Yi to come what?
She didn't use all her strength when she fought with Concubine Zhuang just now.Although Concubine Zhuang is used to being arrogant and domineering, she is still a lady of the family, and she is not good at fighting. If Wei Yunqing was serious, she would have beaten people to the ground. There was no injury on his body, and he was beaten until Yang Yi came.

Yang Yi froze, opened his eyes slightly, and realized that he had been fooled, sister Yun Qing deliberately fought with Concubine Zhuang, just to lure him out!
He immediately wanted to retreat, but with just a flash in his eyes, Wei Yunqing grasped his arm reflexively, and threatened: "If you still run away, believe it or not, I will beat up your harem and tear down this palace." ?”

Yang Yi paused, he believed that Sister Yun Qing really had such courage!
"How dare you be disrespectful to the emperor?" On the other side, Concubine Zhuang had simply arranged her clothes and was about to salute Yang Yi when she saw Wei Yunqing's disrespectful gesture and immediately scolded her.

Wei Yunqing ignored Concubine Zhuang, the purpose of her fight was to lure Yang Yi out, and she went to Concubine Zhuang because she had a grudge against Concubine Zhuang.Now that Yang Yi is here, and her goal has been achieved, other personnel are naturally unwilling to take care of her.

"Should we go to Qianqing Palace or Yanxi Palace to talk?" Wei Yunqing asked forcefully.

A struggling look flashed on Yang Yi's face, and he said after a while, "Go to Qianqing Palace." He has escaped for so many days, and he should give Sister Yunqing an explanation.

"emperor!"

Seeing that the two of them didn't think of themselves seriously, Concubine Zhuang scolded coquettishly.

Only then did Yang Yi turn his attention to Concubine Zhuang, waved his hands and said: "Concubine Zhuang, you should go back to the palace first."

"Your Majesty!" Concubine Zhuang couldn't believe that Yang Yi had brought this matter up so lightly, and said unwillingly, "She came to the concubine's palace to act wildly, and even injured her, so the emperor just let it go?"

Yang Yi looked at Concubine Zhuang. Although she had tidied up her appearance, during the scuffle between the two, there were naturally many scratches and dust on her face and hands. very.He turned his head to look at Wei Yunqing again, the latter was in the same state as Concubine Zhuang, and there were even more and deeper scars on her face - after all, it was with bad intentions, Wei Yunqing eased his attack, and Concubine Zhuang did not No mercy.

Yang Yi felt distressed for a while, waved his hands and said: "Concubine Zhuang, she scratched you, and you scratched her too. Her injury is worse than yours, so let's forget about it."

"Your Majesty!" Concubine Zhuang was furious, only feeling that Yang Yi was very partial, and her chest was extremely oppressed.

"That's it, I'm going back." Yang Yi didn't pay any more attention to Concubine Zhuang, and when he thought of facing Sister Yun Qing's questioning and anger later, he felt annoyed for a while.

Concubine Zhuang gritted her teeth, but could only watch helplessly as the group left.

Yang Yi and Wei Yunqing went back to Qianqing Palace together and drove everyone out, leaving only the two of them in the palace.

"Sister Yunqing...sit." Yang Yi asked Wei Yunqing to sit down at the round table, and poured tea for her graciously.

Wei Yunqing didn't move, and finally found a chance to talk to Yang Yi face to face, she didn't beat around the bush, and said straight to the point: "A Yi, I won't bother with you about making me an imperial concubine without authorization and getting me into the palace, as long as you let go I am leaving the palace, and we will be able to communicate as usual in the future."

Yang Yi stared at the cup of tea in front of Wei Yunqing. The words that he had thought about all the way came to his lips at this moment, but he couldn't say them out.

Seeing that he was silent, Wei Yunqing was a little anxious, and couldn't help raising his voice: "You are talking."

"Sister Yunqing... I don't want you to leave the palace." Yang Yi replied.It's just that his answer was naturally not what Wei Yunqing wanted.

She was so angry that she wanted to beat Yang Yi up, but her personal freedom was still in the hands of the other party, so she could only suppress her anger and said as calmly as possible: "A Yi, I know that you, as an emperor, are usually lonely. I understand that you want someone to play with you and tell you interesting things. But I also want to have my own life. This palace is a prison for me, you should always look after me For the sake of sending you back to the palace, do you think more about me?"

Yang Yi said sullenly: "Sister Yunqing, you left the palace...but you want to marry Yan Rusong?"

Wei Yunqing was slightly stunned, and couldn't hide this matter. After thinking for a while, he said, "I agree with him, and getting married is a matter of course."

"But you said before that you have no personal relationship with him!" Yang Yi said excitedly.

"The past is the past, and feelings will change." Wei Yunqing couldn't remember when he said this, so he had to reply.

A flush of excitement gradually appeared on Yang Yi's face, and he blurted out: "Sister Yunqing, I like you, you should stay in the palace!"

Wei Yunqing was taken aback, and looked at Yang Yi in surprise, wondering if he was serious about what he said.

"I'm five years older than you..." Wei Yunqing hesitated.She found that she didn't believe Yang Yi's words. She was five years older than him. In her eyes, he had always been an ignorant but kind-hearted brat. She had never regarded him as a man, so she said "Like her", she just felt that it was against harmony.

She shook her head and said solemnly: "Ayi, let me tell you, you don't actually like me, you just treat me as a playmate." She remembered the psychological suspension bridge effect, because she was at the moment of his life and death. Became Yang Yi's only dependence, in that case, maybe he would mistakenly think that this temporary dependence is liking.

After all, she just didn't believe that Yang Yi's so-called liking for her was the kind of liking between men and women.

Yang Yi never told her about his liking for Wei Yunqing, and he dared not say it, but now he finally mustered up the courage to say it, but faced with Wei Yunqing's ridicule, he suddenly stood up and said excitedly: "Not a playmate! Sister Yunqing, I like you, I want you to stay by my side, as my woman!"

Wei Yunqing didn't believe Yang Yi's liking, but seeing his agitated attitude, she knew that he had misunderstood his own feelings, and saying something to refute him would only irritate him and make his emotions more ups and downs.

She said slowly: "Ayi, I know you are the emperor, and you are used to saying one thing, but I am also a person, and I don't want to. You can't force me like this, can you?"

Yang Yi remained silent.

Wei Yunqing continued: "You left me in the palace on a whim, but have you ever thought about me? From now on, when your interest fades, I will become an ordinary woman in the harem, and you will leave me in a corner. I will fall out of favor I don’t need to say more about how desolate the concubine’s situation in the harem is, right? You and I have shared adversity, and while you still have some friendship with me, you should let me choose the life I want.”

"It's not just a whim!" Yang Yi retorted, "And... Sister Yunqing, you won't fall out of favor, and I won't let you fall out of favor!"

"But I don't like you, I don't want to stay in the palace." Wei Yunqing gradually raised his voice, "You only think about your own feelings, but have you ever thought about me? I don't want to be trapped in the palace, you Can't you just worry about my thoughts a little bit?"

"Sister Yunqing, in the future...you can still leave the palace freely in the future." Yang Yi whispered.He thought that as long as Sister Yunqing forgot about Yan Rusong, he would give her the right to enter and leave the palace freely. He liked her and didn't want her to be too sad.

The emotion of wanting to beat Yang Yi up became more and more intense, after all, he just didn't want to let her out of the palace.

"Yang Yi, have you forgotten? I am not from this world. Are you sure you want to disobey me like this? Are you afraid that I will go back to the fairy world and sue my master?" In desperation, Wei Yunqing had no choice but to come up with the last That set of nonsense when I first met Yang Yi.

Yang Yi was stunned for a moment, a trace of panic flashed across his face, Wei Yunqing felt relieved, just thinking that these words were really useful, when Yang Yi gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not afraid!"

He said he was not afraid, but in fact Yang Yi was still worried.But he didn't want to let Wei Yunqing out of the palace, he knew that once she was out of the palace, she would become Yan Rusong's wife, that was absolutely unbearable for him.What he is lucky about now is that Sister Yun Qing has no magic power now, as long as he doesn't order, she can't leave the palace.

As long as he doesn't let go, he is her imperial concubine, not Yan Rusong's wife.

"Yang Yi!" Wei Yunqing slammed the table down, stood up and scolded angrily, "Do you know that you will bring unreasonable disasters to Daliang if you act so recklessly? The Great Liang brings disaster, and the Great Liang will perish in your hands!"

Yang Yi took a step back in shock, his face was pale, his eyes flustered and helpless.He believed Wei Yunqing's words, he knew that she would not be indiscriminate, and if he kept her so forcefully, it might really bring disaster to Daliang. After all, Sister Yunqing was a fairy in the sky, and he, a mortal, dared to think of a fairy in the sky... But Yan Rusong can win sister Yun Qing's favor, why can't he?Even if it brings disaster to Daliang, he doesn't care!He wants to keep Sister Yun Qing, even if God doesn't agree!

"Sister Yunqing, I... I'm not afraid!" Yang Yi said tremblingly, his lips trembling slightly, but his eyes fell on Wei Yunqing, "I'm not afraid, as long as I can keep you, I'm not afraid of disasters from heaven!"

Wei Yunqing was stunned for a moment, she said those words on purpose in the hope that Yang Yi would be frightened by her and let her go, but depending on the situation, Yang Yi was indeed frightened, but he still refused to let her go?

Wei Yunqing didn't want to think about the deep meaning in it at all, she said everything she could say, even deceived, but Yang Yi still refused to let go.

"Will you let me go out of the palace?" Wei Yunqing looked at Yang Yi bitterly, approaching him step by step.

Yang Yi hurriedly backed away, but his voice was extremely firm: "Don't let go!"

He saw that Wei Yunqing's eyes were flushed, and felt distressed for a while, but when he thought that she was crying for Yan Rusong, he felt angry and sad again.

"Stop!" Wei Yunqing picked up the teacup on the table and threw it forward.

Yang Yi hurriedly jumped to the side, dodging Wei Yunqing's sudden attack, but the tea still splashed all over him.He hurriedly ran to the gate of the palace, shouting as he ran, "Come here!"

Wei Yunqing turned around, picked up the teapot on the table, and threw it at Yang Yi's back.Yang Yi didn't have eyes behind his back, so he was hit right on the ground. He felt a pain in his back and staggered a bit. After finally standing still, he hurriedly continued to escape.

The palace people who heard Yang Yi's shout immediately pushed the door open and entered. As soon as they entered, they saw a scene that almost made their eyes tear open——Wei Yunqing picked up a stool and smashed it hard at Yang Yi.

This is regicide!

"Escort, escort!" The palace people shouted in panic, rushing towards Yang Yi one after another.

The stool in Wei Yunqing's hand has already been taken out, but the weight and volume of this stool are not comparable to the teapot and cup, and it fell to the ground under the action of gravity as soon as he left his hand, and no one was hurt.

Yang Yi hid among the palace people in a state of embarrassment, his body was covered with tea and tea leaves, and there was still fear on his face.He turned his head and saw the palace people surrounding Wei Yunqing, and immediately said: "Take the imperial concubine back to Yanxi Palace, without my order, you are not allowed to enter or leave!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a few servants stepping forward and grabbed Wei Yunqing, his actions were rude, and he hurriedly shouted: "Be gentle! If you hurt her, I will punish you nine clans!"

This time the servants all felt bitter, Wei Yunqing did not cooperate, if force could not be used, how would they bring her back to the Palace of Yanxi Palace?
"Yang Yi, who wants you to pretend to be kind? If you are afraid of hurting me, let me go out of the palace!" Wei Yunqing said angrily.

Yang Yi turned his eyes away, not daring to look directly at Wei Yunqing again.

"Yang Yi, just wait for me! Either you don't come to see me in the future, or I will beat you every time I see you!" Wei Yunqing threatened viciously.

The palace people were silent like cicadas, pretending not to hear what Wei Yunqing said, what she said was a serious crime of beheading!But she even dared to fight the emperor, and the emperor didn't care about it, so what's the point of saying these words?They had to pretend they didn't hear anything.

The palace people worked hard to bring Wei Yunqing out of Qianqing Palace, and finally brought her back to Yanxi Palace. After walking this short distance, everyone was sweating profusely and their faces were full of exhaustion.

Returning to Yanxi Palace again, Wei Yunqing lost his temper and drove out all the original palace people of Yanxi Palace. He hid in the room alone, climbed onto the bed and covered himself with a quilt, and stuffed himself in the bed.

She promised Yan Rusong that she would find a way to get out, but after so many days, she still made no progress, and the situation even got worse.

She knew that she shouldn't have done anything to Yang Yi just now.She should treat him as gently as possible, understanding it with reason and empathy, if not today, then tomorrow, after a long time, maybe he will agree to let her out of the palace.But she couldn't do it at the time.

This is the first time she has faced Yang Yi's status as emperor so deeply.Because he is the son of heaven and the leader of the feudal group, even if she is a fairy in the sky in his heart, he can't stop him from insisting on keeping her in the palace.If she pays more attention to Yang Yi and doesn't let him have such an illusion, maybe things won't come to this point.

She remembered the day when Yan Rusong said he was coming to propose marriage, and she mustered up the courage to kiss him. He was obviously 26 years old, but he was as shy as a boy, his ears were red, and he didn't dare to look directly at her.

She touched her chest, biting the corner of the quilt with her eyes closed and whimpering. Only by closing her eyes can she let Yan Rusong's appearance fill her vision. Only by closing her eyes can she forget where she is and try her best to recall the past with Yan Rusong. The sweetness when getting along.

Without Wei Yunqing's order, those palace people didn't dare to come in. She missed her meal and didn't feel hungry, so she fell asleep crying.

When she woke up the next day, both of her eyes were swollen like walnuts, but she didn't care. After trying the palace people to prevent her from leaving the Palace of Yanxi Palace, she didn't waste her energy to force her way in.

At this moment, she was somewhat looking forward to Concubine Zhuang and her like coming to trouble her, so that she could take the opportunity to make something happen if there was some confusion.

——Yes, she did not give up.Yesterday's crying was just a momentary weakness, and she would not give up on leaving the palace.Yang Yi was unwilling to let her go, so she tried to escape by herself.It's not like she didn't try to escape from Li Zhuo's hands before.So what if the palace is heavily guarded?She can always find a chance, no matter what method she uses, she will escape from the palace.

Even after going out, she can no longer be with Yan Rusong, and she has to escape.She can't be trapped in the palace forever, that's not what she wants.

On the first day that Yang Yi imprisoned Yanxi Palace, Wei Yunqing moved a stool and sat at the entrance of Yanxi Palace, surrounded by palace people, but she didn't want to leave Yanxi Palace, so no one stopped her .

She looked at the palace people with her swollen eyes, raised her eyelids and said, "Which of you can play chess?"

The palace people looked at each other in blank dismay, and then a few people walked out.

"Okay, bring me Go, let me teach you a new way to play." Wei Yunqing ordered.

When teaching people in the palace to play backgammon, Wei Yunqing vaguely remembered that in Jinyang, she also taught Lan Tian and Lu Cui to play this way. Lan Tian learned quickly, so she liked to play with Lan Tian to pass the time.No matter how hard it is to catch up with the passage of time, she never thought of letting those two people come to her side - she will go out sooner or later, why bother to involve them?
After teaching several people how to play backgammon, Wei Yunqing played against them respectively.She didn't concentrate too much, and she was watching the outside while playing, but she was facing all rookies, so naturally she won all the games.

After such a morning plus an afternoon, Wei Yunqing has basically figured out the patrol time of the Jinyi Guards near Yanxi Palace during the day.

In the evening, she called a court lady and a servant and said, "Bring me five sets of clothes for you each!"

The two looked at each other, not understanding Wei Yunqing's intentions, and hesitated for a while.

"Hurry up!" Wei Yunqing scolded.

"Go back to your mother, there are not so many clothes at the servant's place..." The maid replied in a low voice.

Wei Yunqing seemed unreasonable: "There are not so many, so I ask someone else to ask for it, and I need to teach you?"

"It's... Your Majesty." The palace maid lowered her gaze and dared not speak further.

The two walked out together, and hurriedly went to collect clothes.

Wei Yunqing waited in the palace room for a while, and saw that the two brought a total of ten sets of clothes over.She said impatiently: "Put it down, you can go."

The two hurriedly saluted and left.

Wei Yunqing stayed alone in the palace room for quite a while before calling someone in. The palace people were stunned by the mess in the room.

The ground was covered with fragments of fabric, covering the room, and it was the ten sets of clothes that had just been brought.

Wei Yun said coldly: "Clean up everything."

The palace people hurriedly cleaned up, and quietly tidy up the palace room as before.

In the next few days, Wei Yunqing observed Jinyiwei's patrol time during the day, and began to cut clothes and play in the evening.After a long time, the palace officials who were still trembling at the beginning, who were afraid of Wei Yunqing's violent actions, were relieved.

In the past few days, they have carefully observed that ten sets of clothes were taken in, and ten sets of fabrics were taken out.In other words, the empress was just angry and wanted to cut clothes to calm down.After this matter was reported, there was a response from Qianqing Palace: Go get more clothes and let the imperial concubine cut them!
After observing in this way for a few days, Wei Yunqing discovered that there should be three rules for Jin Yiwei's patrol time, but they didn't follow the order, it seemed that they randomly decided which rule to use.But as long as you read their patrol rules in the morning, you can basically figure out the situation in the afternoon.

The night before, Wei Yunqing asked the palace people to take ten sets of clothes as usual, but she only cut nine sets, and the palace people were used to her behavior, and they didn't find anything abnormal—the clothes cut in the previous few days, and how many clothes were there? How many sets of clothes are cut is just to paralyze these palace people. When they get used to her way, they will be negligent and stop deliberately counting how many sets she cut.Now this method seems to be really successful.

Wei Yunqing left behind a set of maid's clothes, and planned to run away first.Of course she knew that escaping from the heavily guarded palace could almost be called a miracle, but being locked up in Yanxi Palace, she didn't know anything about the situation outside, and it would be useless to wait any longer, so why not try.If she can't escape this time, there will always be another chance. She can think of countless ways to escape every minute, and she is not afraid that this one will be discovered by them and she will become vigilant.

In the afternoon, saying that he was sleepy and wanted to take a nap, Wei Yunqing asked all the palace people to go out, and stayed in the palace room by himself.She changed into the maid's clothes, waited quietly for a while, and then climbed out from the window.Walking through the side hall is the wall. She had already discovered that there was a tree here, which she could borrow to climb the wall—it might be difficult for women in the palace to climb the wall, but for her, it was just a piece of cake.

It took her a lot of effort to climb up the wall, and looked outside the palace wall, there were no patrols outside.She smiled knowingly and turned sideways down the wall.
