Chapter 241: Cang Yan is difficult to change for Zhu Yan (4)
"Do you know who delivered it?" I stood facing the window, watching the fluttering tree branches cast a chaotic shadow under the window, like my thoughts, I couldn't grasp the clue.
"It's Feng Ji, General Feng who is going with the emperor this time." Hui Ju replied.
"Feng Ji?" I thought: "Can it be related to Concubine Hui?"
"It's Concubine Hui's cousin."
I nodded: "My palace knows, what can he secretly report?" Suddenly, like lightning that pierced the night sky, did it matter to the third brother?
"You take my waist card to go out of the palace, first ask your eldest brother whether Feng Ji had attacked the Hui falcon with King Yu before. If so, tell him that the Dongchuang incident will happen and let him be prepared." I became nervous for no reason, if Shen Xiyao found out In the Uighur battle, I did some tricks, and I was afraid that not only me, but the entire Ling family, and even Xihe would be involved.
"The mother, you?" Huiju knew the importance of the matter and became nervous: "Aren't you dangerous?"
"Leave me alone, go! Send Xiao Xizi in." I waved my hand: "If something happens, I will ask Xiao Xizi to find a way to send a message, so you don't want to come back."
"The slave and maid must stay by your side." Hui Ju's tears fell.
"Fool, if it's really what happened in the past, you can't escape the relationship. There are still families and princes in this palace. The emperor will not embarrass me much, but you are different. So, if something happens, you must go, go far. "I took off a bunch of diamond hands and handed it to her: "It happened suddenly, and I couldn't take any of the rewards for you before. You can take this one, so you can settle down."
Hui Ju did not speak, but only worshiped me three times, and went out without taking over Chuan.
I put my hand ring on the table, even if there is no sunlight, the diamond still emits a brilliance that cannot be ignored.
"Niang, you call a minion?" someone behind him asked softly.
I didn't turn around, and my tone was calm: "Go and find out what the secret report the emperor received today is. If it involves the battle of Huiju, you immediately go out of the palace and inform Huiju that she will not come back, and you will not come back."
There was a moment of silence behind him, and then the door closed slightly.
After lunch, Xiao Xizi hadn't returned, so I ate a few mouthfuls and went to the apse to accompany Xuan'er, my heart beating more and more anxiously, until Zhang Dehai came.
"Minions see the empress." He hit a thousand, looking at me with a worried expression: "The emperor invites the empress to the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart."
As if I didn't know anything, I smiled at him and said, "My palace change clothes and go."
Zhang Dehai hesitated, but left without saying anything.
I stood in front of the huge bronze mirror and looked at the woman in the sunset-colored smoky brocade dress inside. She combed her usual wishful bun and put on colorful tourmaline beads, like the mistress of an ordinary wealthy family. Gentle and feminine, dignified and elegant. If I have not entered the palace, I am afraid it should be like this now. I smiled at the person in the mirror, stretched out my hand to take a red gold phoenix orb and ruby slowly inserted in my temple, the gentleness in my eyes, covered by the light of that ruby, showed the arrogance and fierceness that a queen should have. .
Covering the long cloak of Yinfeng Lingyu, I called Yumei to go to the Hall of Nourishing Heart with me carrying a food box. It seemed that I was just going to visit Shen Xiyao as usual, and I would leave after sitting and chatting for a while.
Yumei was stopped at the door, but Zhang Dehai took the food box but did not go in. His eyes looked sympathetic, pitiful, and puzzled.
The darkness in the Hall of Nourishing the Heart is not at all like Xuanliang on ordinary days. The purple-gold hollowed-out dragon on the floor smoked from the large smoker, lingering in the hall, adding another unpredictability to the otherwise unclear hall.
Shen Xiyao sat on the dragon chair in front, his eyes gloomy, my heart felt guilty, but my face was calm.
"Concubine see the emperor." I worshipped deeply, but for a long while I couldn't hear Shen Xiyao's voice.
There is a Persian velvet blanket in the Hall of Nourishing the Heart. I lowered my head, my sight was full of auspicious cloud patterns, and gold threads were woven into the clouds. I looked so close for a long time, making me dizzy.
"Pop", a memorial was thrown in front of me, and the words on the spread memorial were densely packed, writing carefully how the food and grass of the Uyghur army was taken away strangely? ? How is the food and grass sent by the third brother consistent with the looted? ? How did the Uighur son who was supposed to be strictly guarded escape? ?
I only felt the sweat was like syrup, and the cold sweat was dripping down. It really was as I worried, and Shen Xiyao knew it.
"Ling Xuewei, do you know you are guilty?" Shen Xiyao's voice was full of anger and pain.
I tried to calm my mind and looked up at him and said: "The emperor, the concubine does not know where the guilt is." I took a deep breath: "Does the emperor believe in such a fabricated memorial? I do not believe that my Ling family has been a country for generations. Loyalty?" I sneered coldly: "If the emperor doesn't believe him, and only thinks his concubine is guilty, then the concubine has nothing to say."
Shen Xiyao "humbled": "There are human and material evidence, how can you deny it?" He stood up and walked slowly to my side, raised my chin with his hand, and his eyes looked straight into my eyes. Disappointment, hatred, pain, but no more love.
I also looked back at him needlessly, trying to maintain my composure and courage in those icy eyes.
"Feng Ji is responsible for the grain and grass. During the Uyghur war, he accidentally dropped a piece of silk paw in the grain and grass and sent it to the front line. He didn't want to be robbed. Tell me, how could this silk paw appear in the grain and grass aided by your third brother? "
"What does the emperor think?" I said lightly.
"I thought," his smile was colder than Dongxue's: "I felt weird at first. Since I dare to rob even the official food, why does your third brother give the food a safe journey?"
"Why would my Ling family do this?" My tone was a little bit lamented: "The country is in trouble, what good is my Ling family?"
"Because of you!" Shen Xiyao seemed to be angry: "Aren't all the reasons why you returned to the back seat?" With a wave of his hand, I was slammed to the side, and my elbow hit the hard leg of the table. It hurts so much that my tears fell.
"Whether the concubines can go back to Kunning Palace, it is not all the emperor's thoughts. If the emperor is unwilling, whatever concubines in the Ling family are still in the room or in the clothing bureau." Tears fell like pearls: "How can a military commander carry a silk paw with him? If it is a gift from a loved one, how can he take it out and fall into it when checking the grain? As the emperor said, it was the third brother who robbed the grain. Arranged, will my third brother be so stupid to send it back intact?" I kowtow to him: "The emperor, this is clearly someone trying to frame Zhongliang!"
"Really?" Shen Xiyao seemed moved, but still didn't believe me.
I was about to explain again, when my stomach surged, I couldn't help running to the side and vomiting. First, most of the lunch is eaten, then the sour yellow water, then the bitter green water, and then it turns into retching, which is endless. This feeling is very familiar, with joy and unknown fear in my heart.
Shen Xiyao was also panicked, he really cared about me, calling out loudly.
Finally, Zhang Dehai and Yumei came in, and other court ladies and eunuchs went to call the eunuch.
"The concubine has lost his courtesy." Shen Xiyao helped me to lie down on the bed in the inner room due to retching.
"It's okay." Shen Xiyao looked at me with worry.
While wiping the corners of my clothes with some stolen goods, Yumei handed over a clear water and said, "The lady will rinse her mouth."
At this moment, the imperial doctor arrived, and at the same time, I informed the emperor that Concubine Hui had come, and Shen Xiyao was silent, and I said: "The emperor, go see Concubine Hui's sister. It's not too late to tell the emperor after the doctor's treatment."
His hand gently stroked my cheek, and smiled gently at me, as if the anger and questioning had never happened before, "I will go and come."
