Chapter 44: Yushan is high and two peaks are cold (1)

I said in a tone of anger and reproach: "The emperor is too, so I should save the Liu Fei sister."
He smiled slightly: "This is the first time you have received your concubine's greetings. Since it is the first time, it is naturally sloppy."
After speaking, he walked down to Concubine Liu's side and asked gently, "Is it okay?"
I winked at Huiju, and immediately there was a soft rosewood chair with a sapphire background and a brocade cushion placed next to Hefei.
I watched Concubine Liu leaning against him, with a haughty look on her face, walked over and sat down, but only blew a cup of tea in her hand. It wasn't until he looked up to see me smile at me that I returned with a soft smile.
I took the hand extended by him and walked to the seat together, but I was tired of being so pretentious in my heart, but I could only and must do the same.
Concubine Liu underneath looked at me with a clear smug smile on her face. I responded with a smile and turned my head to look at Shen Xiyao.
His gaze didn't fall on anyone, he just looked at the blue sky outside the door, his gaze seemed to penetrate the sky, illusory.
"Is the date set? A few days have passed?" I smiled and looked at Concubine Liu who was sitting below.
Her gaze has been fixed on Shen Xiyao's face, there is idiot and resentment in that gaze.
I smiled somewhat errantly, and the court lady next to Concubine Liu answered my words with a clever smile: "Back to the empress, my master will give birth at the end of this month."
I nodded: "Then you must be careful of your body, it is also dangerous at this time. You have to take care of it well."
Concubine Liu let out a very soft "hum" sound.
But the Luanfeng Hall was so quiet, her voice was exceptionally clear. Concubine Liu herself also noticed her gaffe, so she coughed again in a hurry.
Shen Xiyao had already turned his gaze back at this time, and heard the coughing and asked in a concerned tone: "What's wrong, are you uncomfortable?"
There was a sweet smile on Concubine Liu's face, the kind of genuinely happy smile I had never seen before: "The concubine is fine, the emperor."
The voice was soft and soft, I inadvertently met Hefei's eyes, she with such a faint smile of disdain, just like my expression at this time, we exchanged winks.
He and Concubine turned to look at Concubine Liu and smiled: "My younger sister is uncomfortable because of getting up this morning. She says that if pregnant people sleep more, it's better for the fetus.
Concubine Liu didn't look at Concubine He, and she swept straight at me with a pair of beautiful eyes. Those eyes were no longer the gentleness they were before, but with a little bit of hostility.
"My sister joked. I have always got up with my sister, but I was frightened yesterday. I slept late and didn't sleep well."
As she spoke, her face turned to Shen Xiyao: "Also ask the emperor to be the master for his concubines."
As soon as her voice fell, there was a thief from below.
I guessed that she would not let Haoyue's affairs go today. What's more, the emperor is here now. It is estimated that she had heard that Haoyue was taken away last night. She wanted to start but didn't succeed, so she found a reason to mention it again.
I turned my head and looked at Shen Xiyao beside me, his face was completely calm, as if Concubine Liu hadn't heard the sad request before.
I have some support in my heart. It seems that the poem last night has some effect. I was about to leaned forward to comfort Concubine Liu, and Shen Xiyao, who had been silent on the side, opened his mouth: "I have sent someone to investigate what happened yesterday. Negotiate."
His tone was so light, and Concubine Liu's face turned pale, she must have never expected the emperor to have such an attitude, but from his eyes, I could also see his friendship for Concubine Liu, not a simple emperor. The kind of concubine's kindness.
Concubine Liu pursed her mouth unwillingly, but still smiled and said, "Everything is what the emperor wants."
The bottom was also quiet. I looked at the sky, and it was three poles in the sky.
Usually at this time it was when the emperor met the minister's memorials in the Imperial Study. It was abnormal for him to come here early today. Thinking that he had something to tell me before, I thought to myself that it should be about Haoyue.
I tilted my head and said in his ear: "The emperor, shouldn't you let them all go back, Concubine Liu should also take a good rest."
He nodded, and I looked back at the women below, there was a momentary trance, fleeting.
"Sisters, go home, it's getting late." I smiled slightly.
The concubines came up to ask Ann to retire. In the end, only Concubine Liu sat on the chair and slowly got up. The meaning was obvious. I saw her beautiful eyes looking at the emperor, knowing what she wanted to say.
I did not give her a chance to speak, but went down and took her hand.
"My sister is heavy, so I don't have to come here every day for peace. She will raise her well. We are all waiting for you to add a little prince to my Daxi."
She opened her mouth, and I looked back and quickly glanced at Shen Xiyao who was already standing there.
"The emperor, Concubine Liu is heavy and frightened again. The emperor will send her sister back."
Concubine Liu froze for a moment and looked at me in surprise. I just smiled, not looking at her gaze.
She lowered her head and whispered: "Don't bother the emperor, you can do it yourself." But the look in her eyes was expectant.
Shen Xiyao hesitated, but still walked to her side and took her hand.
"I will go back with Ruxu."
I saw Concubine Liu snuggle into his arms with a happy smile, her lips and the corners of her eyes were smug, she looked at me provocatively.
I ignored it, and gave a brief ritual, "The concubine sent the emperor respectfully."
When the bright yellow color disappeared outside the Kunning Palace gate, I sat on the Phoenix Seat.
Hui Ju on the side said dissatisfied: "Didn't the empress see the look of Concubine Liu just now?"
"How about seeing it?" I turned around and gathered my hair, pressing my eyebrows and said: "I'm tired, go to Xi Nuan Pavilion."
The soft satin embroidered shoes walked softly and silently on the courtyard leading to the Xi Nuan Pavilion. In the courtyard, a cherry tree blossomed in full bloom, and the purple-blue shades of the trees were distinct.
A violent wind blew my dress, my head clinked, and the sky was full of tiny petals that fell on the ground like rain.
I stopped and watched. It was as quiet as usual, as if I was still the woman with a pale heart, silently guarding a corner of the palace but still having a good time.
There was a small voice in my heart saying that everything is different, and there is no way to hide in that charming and prosperous but calculating world.
Then, I will do what I have always done for my Ling family.
"Hui Ju," I whispered softly, "Go and see if the emperor is still with Concubine Liu, if not, where did he go, be careful, and report back to me as soon as possible."
Hui Ju left according to my wishes, I found something for the others, let them all go away, and walked to the Yingluo by myself and stood there. The complex and luxurious jewelry on my head made me unable to breathe when I looked up. gas.
I know that from now on, there will be more heaviness and I must be prepared.
But when I thought of fighting for favor in order to protect myself and my family, I was very repulsive.
Why did it come to the point where it is today, how good the past is.
Looking up at the dense purple star-dotted blue sky, the sun was shining down, and through the shade of the tree, I only felt it stung my eyes.
Squint your eyes, and become firm in your heart. If you can't escape, just use it.
Hui Ju came back soon, and I was still standing under the tree. She whispered behind me: "Niang, the emperor sent Liu Fei Niang Niang to the gate of Zhaoyang Hall, and Director Zhang came in a hurry. It is said that the ministers are all in the Imperial Study Room. Waiting, the emperor left."
I didn't look back, just plucked a section of the branch. The flowers on it were blooming, and the leaves were green. I sniffed, a faint fragrance.
"Hui Ju, go and prepare, my palace is going to see Concubine Liu."
Changed to a dark red palace costume, the luxurious and majestic before the victory, the jewelry on his head was replaced with an agate phoenix hairpin, but this was the same, but the atmosphere was not lost.
Hui Ju prepared a statue of Guanyin for sending children and three Yuruyi handles. It was just a simple visit, no need to be complicated. Even if Concubine Liu was willing to pick me up, she was afraid that she would do her hands and feet afterwards, so she naturally didn't let Hui Ju prepare.
Zhaoyang Palace's palace is very large, decorated with magnificent magnificent decorations, with curling cornices everywhere and golden tiles and glazed tiles.
I am curious that Concubine Liu seems to be a graceful person. Such a palace does not fit her temperament, but as the most favored concubine in the harem, this style is also compatible.
Due to the prior notice, the attendants in the Liu Fei Palace had already waited in front of the door, headed by the maid named Fei Ran, so it seemed that she was the great attendant of Zhaoyang Palace.
"Slaves see Empress Empress." Fei Ran led a group of slaves to kneel.
I was secretly surprised that the number of attendants in the Liu Fei Palace was obviously more than the number prescribed by the etiquette system. At a glance, it seemed to be close to the preparation in the Queen's Palace, but I didn't have that many before.
I smiled and asked her: "How is your master?"
Fei Ran replied respectfully: "Lady Concubine Liu is resting in the sleeping hall, please move the empress to the main hall."
The main hall of Zhaoyang Palace was named by Shen Xiyao himself, and Feixu Palace used a word from the name of Concubine Liu. The emperor's imperial pen, this is the supreme honor.
I stood in the hall and looked at it. The furnishings were even the same as my Luanfeng Hall, except that there was no phoenix for decoration, but peacocks were everywhere.
The meaning of the emperor before may be understood by anyone here. I am indeed the one who shouldn't show up.
"The empress, please sit down, and the slave and maid will go and invite my wife."
Fei Ran brought the tea, Hui Ju took it and put it in front of me, seemingly casually asked: "The Empress Empress sent someone to inform you, why? Concubine Liu didn't know?" I pressed Huiju's hand and laughed Looking at Fei Ran, who didn't know how to answer, even if Concubine Liu had a medical condition, but I told her before, she should come out to welcome me, otherwise it would be a crime of disrespect.
What's more, the emperor didn't give her special permission, but he didn't know whether Concubine Liu was careless or deliberate.
"The empress, empress forgive me. My mother was a little uncomfortable when she came back in the morning. She was resting in the sleeping hall. She just fell asleep and the servant didn't dare to wake her." Fei Ran said carefully: "After all, the empress is pregnant."
I smiled and got up: "My palace goes in to see your wife, she is inconvenient, so don't let her come out."
Fei Ran hurriedly smiled and said, "The slave servant thanked the mother on behalf of my master. The slave servant will report now."
I waved my hand and said, "No need." Without waiting for her notification, I took Huiju's hand and walked towards the inner court of Zhaoyang Palace.
As soon as I stepped into the hospital, I couldn’t help but be stunned. There was a small pond surrounded by blue waves in the middle of the corridor, full of willow trees. At this moment, the willow leaves were gently brushing my cheeks, slightly itchy, and slightly pain.
Hui Ju blocked the blown willow branches for me. I stopped at the turn of the corridor, stretched out my hand and fold it lightly, and held a delicate branch in my hand. I didn't say anything but looked down, Hui Ju didn't dare to speak behind me, and Hui Ran didn't dare to come forward.
After playing for a long time, I turned around and said to Fei Ran, "Go and inform your master, and say I came to see her."
Fei Ran nodded hurriedly, I watched her figure walk into the opposite door, and then I took another step. With a wave of my hand, the curved willow branch lay on the water gently, starting from the beginning. The ripples gradually sank into the water again. A bright red koi came and touched the wicker carefully with his mouth, and found that it was not eating, and finally wandered away.
