Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

One afternoon, I did nothing else, just reading a book by the window with wonderful words. Today's weather is okay. The dazzling sunlight is shining outside. The snow has melted a lot. The melting snow on the eaves has dripped down the tile and landed on the bluestone steps.

From time to time, I look up and look out at the road outside through the crystal curtains.

Even if she doesn't come, I will rest assured even if I look at it from a distance.

But as time passed, the snow on the eaves melted into water, and the last drop dripped. There was no one on the road outside the door, not even a messenger. In the setting sun, orange light shines in this Jingren Palace, and the red walls and blue tiles reveal a sense of indiscriminate killing.

Soon the sky darkened.

Xiao Fuzi brought the person from the royal dining room to come and gave us a meal again. As soon as he came in, I looked at him intently. He instructed those people to put everything away. I looked down and there was still more in the dishes A bowl of steaming sweet soup is coming.

When he pulled out with someone and just walked to the door, I followed.

"Father Fuk."

Xiao Fuzi immediately stopped and stood at the door and looked back at me.

I walked in front of him, a little shy: "That scripture ..."

"It's already given to the queen mother."

"Really? What did she say?"

"She--" Xiao Fuzi hesitated and said, "I didn't say anything."

"what?"

He glanced at me again, looked at me with a stunned expression, and then said gently: "When I gave the queen's maiden, she said 'I know', and then asked me to serve the lady well, otherwise, also Nothing more. "

"..."

My brow frowned suddenly.

Does Chang Qing fail to understand what I mean?

No, it's impossible, even if I have never seen her conspiracy in this harem and harmed anyone, but I know very well that for so many years, sitting in the back seat is not something a dull woman can do. Clever, I must know the purpose of letting Xiao Fuzi send that scripture book, and I can also see through my heart.

But she said nothing.

Does she just not want to say?

Or at all, nothing to say?

I just felt heavy, and asked, "So, what did she do?"

Xiao Fuzi thought about it and said, "It's nothing. After picking it up, the mother-in-law just looked at it twice. Later, when I went to ask An again, I saw that she was still there, and the lady's book was at hand. The queen mother has been very tired these days. Today, she looks even more tired. "

He said, there was a gloomy expression in his words, and I couldn't say anything, I just felt my chest dull and panicked.

Both of them were silent for a while, and I asked again, "To the father-in-law, there are still two days for the in-farm gift of the emperor. Is everything ready?"

He nodded. "Of course."

"Well, what about the queen's silkworm gift?"

He said: "Here, this time the silkworm ceremony was personally asked by the emperor. I don't know how to arrange it."

"..."

Feeling that I was holding my breath suddenly, Xiao Fuzi looked up at me: "Miss, what's wrong?"

"..." I looked at him, although my chest was dull, and there seemed to be a lot of things to say, but I also knew that I couldn't say at this time, and I was passing that book to Chang Qing. It was already a very dangerous move. What to say and what to do, I'm afraid this situation is beyond my control.

I gritted my teeth and slowly said, "It's nothing, go and get busy. If there is anything for the queen lady to bring to me, I'm bothering you to run more."

Xiao Fuzi looked at me in amazement. It seemed that he also felt that I had paid too much attention to Chang Qing, but he didn't say anything, only nodded: "I see. Miss, please use slowly."

After that, we left.

I retired back to the room, Su Su and Wu Min served the wonderful words to eat, but it was very lively, but I looked at the smile on their faces, but still felt cold.

Chang Qing, do you really have to go all the way to the dark?

Time passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of Pei Yuanzhang's cultivating ceremony.

I woke up early in the morning and felt that the weather was fine. Although the sun had not completely risen, I could see a long blue sky and no clouds. The air was filled with the kind of clear breath after the snow melted. The human spirit is also refreshed.

Xiaofuzi was still standing at the door, and slowly, his shadow became clear on the ground.

He looked at me in trouble: "Miss, do you really not go?"

I shook my head: "No."

"But the emperor wants you to go."

"Your Majesty is hope, and not forced, I can also refuse."

"This is the truth, but--"

He was anxious to scratch his ears and scratch his cheeks, like a monkey who couldn't hold his heart upset for a while, and said, "This is the first time since the Emperor's ascension. Doesn't the lady really want to see?"

I shook my head: "I don't want to."

"This this……"

The more difficult he became, watching the time passing by, I guess, the guard of honor to follow Pei Yuanzhang to the ceremony of self-cultivation has already set off, but as the deputy in charge of the eunuch, he was still at my door.

At this moment, the corner of my eyes saw sitting at the table, copying the wonderful words of "Zeng Guang Xian Wen", she was also holding a little Fuzi, her eyes were anxious, it seemed that he was looking forward to convince me, when I saw that I saw She immediately took her eyes off and pretended to be intent. Xiao Fuzi said hurriedly: "This is a big event today. Doesn't Miss want her Royal Highness to show up in the past?"

I smiled slightly: "She has more opportunities to show up, and she can't afford to show up today. Besides, although Her Majesty hasn't convicted me yet, the matter hasn't been found out. In the past, as a suspect, she was vainly abused. Why is it disgusting? "

Today ’s in-home cultivation ceremony, Chang Taishi and Nangong Jinhong are bound to attend. If I did show up, I do n’t know if they would mention me again. If they did, they would be heard by the public. Even if you want to hide it, you can't hide it.

Therefore, it is better not to go.

Far away, I heard bells and drums, the team is about to leave, and Xiao Fuzi can only look at me last: "Miss ..."

"Gongfu, I don't embarrass you, don't embarrass me. Come on, please don't please me, Your Majesty is most unhappy, but if you are late on such an occasion, it is a matter of sin."

As soon as he heard it, he finally stopped going down, arched his hands at me, and turned away.

When I looked back, I saw Miao Yan lifted his head from the book, looking at the back of Xiao Fuzi with a lost face, and when he saw me looking back at her, he immediately lowered his head.

I slowly walked over to sit next to her: "How much did you write? I'll let you finish today, so you don't have to delay anymore."

"Yes."

She had some grievances, but did not dare to disobey me. She continued to write hard, but after writing for a while, she finally wanted to play and prevailed. She looked up at me and said pitifully, "Mother, I really I do n’t want to write. My hands are sore and cold, let me play for a while? ”

"No."

"Mother, just a moment."

"No!"

Although I wasn't arrogant, but she didn't dare to say anything. She came from the window with a soft, but unpleasant voice: "Ms. Yan, it ’s supposed to be a strict parental control of children. Yes, but it must not be so unfriendly. "

This voice--

As soon as I looked up, I saw a puppet figure standing in the yard.

Nangong Lizhu? !!

As soon as I saw her appearing in the courtyard, she was suddenly stunned and had not responded yet, but the two guards at the door hurried down and saluted respectfully: "The concubine."

Her face was still a little pale, and Rui Zhu was holding her arm firmly by the side. After she said that, she gasped.

Why is she here?

I only asked a little more when Xiaofuzi came to ask me today, only to know that although her illness was cured, she had suffered a lot before, so her health was always weak. This time, the gift of self-cultivation did not need her to pass, I didn't expect that she was idle and came to me.

After the two guards asked Ann, one of them said immediately: "The queen concubine, the emperor has already confessed that no one is allowed in."

Nangong Lizhu had a small smile on her pale face and said, "This palace won't go in. This palace just wanted to come and see the little princess, but didn't expect--"

She said, looking up at the wonderful words.

That look was as gentle as today's weather, and as gentle as the wind blowing.

The wonderful words sitting at the table are a bit inexplicable. Look at me and look at her again. Nangong Lizhu has taken a step forward and said softly, "Little princess, I'm here to see you. Do you remember me?"

The wonderful words shook his head blankly.

A glance of loss immediately flashed in Nangong Lizhu's eyes, but she immediately smiled reluctantly: "When you first entered the palace, you often lived with me, and you still called my mother."

All of a sudden my face sank.

The previous time she came to me, she was pulling her words, and I was so sick of it, but I did n’t expect that today, she is all sick, and her words are obviously much better. She actually came again--

Just when I was almost furious, Miao Yan said crisply, "But I only have one mother."

After that, she looked up at me.

At this time, I do n’t know where the wind suddenly came from, or who hit the Nangong Lizhu invisibly. She seemed to be suddenly unstable, and took two steps. Fortunately, Rui Zhu on the side barely helped. She, but her complexion has turned pale.

When she saw her, the wonderful words seemed startled: "What's the matter with you?"

Talking, she stood on the table and looked out the window.
