Chapter 502: Falling Red is not a ruthless thing
There are too many concubines in the harem, and there are only a handful of them who can be liked by Emperor Feng.
As for Concubine Shu, she is even more of a poor person.
At the beginning, she was just a servant girl by Bai Huan's side.
Later, he was squeezed out by the people in the palace and almost ran out of life, and every step was extremely difficult. In her lifetime, she never thought that she would receive such an imperial favor.
Seeing her like this, the old lady smiled bitterly, "Niangniang, what's the matter with me looking forward to it for so long, it's so easy to come to this point, why is it sad?"
"It's just strange," she said, sitting silently on one side, her face gloomy, "really, I never thought I'd be where I am today." ”
"I heard that Prince Xu entered the palace to see the emperor this evening," although the old lady felt a little strange, she still smiled, "No matter what made the emperor come, it is a good thing for the mother, yes or no"
Good thing
The current concubine didn't dare to imagine that she still had a time to transit.
What if Feng Xu offended Emperor Feng by speaking for her, what should she do She saved a lot of panic at this time, "What about Xu'er?"
"I've already left the palace and gone to the Jingyun Division, and I should come back tomorrow to say hello to my mother."
Concubine Shu nodded, her heart beating like thunder.
"It doesn't matter what my own life is, but it won't be good if it affects Xu'er in the future. He can get to this day, it's all because of his own struggle, but I can't delay my future because I am such a mother. ”
Feng Xu naturally didn't think of this, he just thought about his mother's hardships over the years, and he couldn't bear it.
Concubine Shu dressed up very grandly, but after waiting for more than an hour, she didn't see Emperor Feng coming.
Dinner was already cold, and Concubine Shu looked at the candlelight flickering, and suddenly felt that she was very ridiculous. Probably a false positive, not her!
Thinking like this, Concubine Shu completely lost the joy of Ang's beginning. The feeling of being despised quickly swept over her chest.
"Whose palace is the emperor resting in today?"
The old lady also felt strange, why had it been this hour, and she hadn't seen the shadow of the Wind Emperor
She smiled and said softly: "Niangniang, please rest assured, the emperor hasn't come to the harem yet." ”
Before I came, Concubine Shu's heart was slightly cold, even if she didn't want to come, why did the emperor promise me to have some expectations, but in the end, it was still a bamboo basket to draw water. “
"Mother, no." The old lady held Concubine Shu's hand tightly, "Niangniang, do you want to go and rest, and it doesn't hurt to come out to greet the emperor after a while." ”
Concubine Shu broke out in a cold sweat, and she didn't know if she was nervous or because of something beside her. She smiled and nodded, with weakness in her limbs.
Emperor Feng came in half an hour, and Concubine Shu was resting on the soft couch under the long window, holding a gold embroidered pillow in her arms, the corners of her mouth drooped slightly, and she didn't know what she was thinking. frowned, his face was extremely bad, and when he looked at it at this time, Emperor Feng had forgotten how he let her into the harem back then.
Xu was ruthless because of Bai Huan, or maybe it was Xi Yan's secret plan.
It was all decades ago, and the Wind Emperor didn't take it very seriously. After all, the current Feng Xu is the pillar of their Wind Country, all of which is based on Concubine Shu's teachings.
The old lady was very happy when she saw the Wind Emperor coming, and was just about to salute when she was stopped by the Wind Emperor.
"Don't make a noise."
The old lady wept with joy and hurriedly retreated.
There are a few bottles of red plums in the hall, which is interesting to look at this time. Concubine Shu is not an elegant person, and it is already a bit of a benefit to be able to find these good plum blossom vases.
There are two sides of jade Ruyi next to the soft couch, placed on the table, on the top is carved several fine fish play lotus leaf style, auspicious Ruyi, very noble. The Wind Emperor took three or two steps forward and touched the jade Ruyi, which was made of mutton fat and white jade, with warm tentacles and excellent water heads. The fish is lifelike, and the background color is a natural pale cyan, which is very beautiful.
Such a pair of jade ruyi is already a rare thing of great value.
Concubine Shu noticed that there was someone next to her, and she woke up immediately.
When she saw the Wind Emperor standing next to her, she was stunned for a moment.
She was terrified, afraid that it was all just a dream.
"The Emperor"
"It's me." The Wind Emperor replied and laughed in a low voice, "It seems that I haven't come to you for a long time." ”
"The emperor is busy with government affairs." When Concubine Shu said this, she burst into tears. She knows too well, no matter how busy Emperor Feng is, he also wants to go to Meng Li, just for a Bai Huan, why he doesn't come to her palace, she also knows, but because he has never put her in his eyes.
In the final analysis, there is not much emotion, Concubine Shu, in the backyard of this deep palace, her only dedication is to give birth to a good child.
The wind was rolling outside, and the sound of falling leaves could be faintly heard.
Flowers and plants are decadent, how to look at how desolate.
The palace people who were waiting didn't know where to go, and the dormitory was empty, leaving only her and Emperor Feng.
Concubine Shu was at a loss, holding the handkerchief in her hand tightly, looking at Emperor Feng's eyes with almost despair.
There was also the milk custard prepared for her by the old lady in the vermilion lacquer tray next to her, but An Hong on the tray seemed to be a dazzling bloodstain, which made her feel a lot of sadness when she looked at it.
"Xu'er said that you have been sick for the past few days"
"Thank you for the emperor's care, it's just that I'm sick and have palpitations. The imperial doctor has already come to take a look, and said that it can be cured by taking medicine. Concubine Shu replied tremblingly.
She is naturally not as good as Bai Huan, nor can she be compared to Hua Long. When the Wind Emperor talked to her, he always felt that he was in a hurry. But Concubine Shu is Feng Xu's mother-in-law, and Emperor Feng has to save some favors.
"If you lack anything or what you don't have, just tell the people of the Internal Affairs Office to prepare it." Emperor Feng patted the back of Concubine Shu's slightly cool hand, "Over the years, you have also worked hard. ”
Having this sentence was enough for Concubine Shu, she choked up and nodded, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
"Hmm." Emperor Feng and Concubine Shu had no more extra words to say, and the continuous silence broke Concubine Shu's heart.
She carefully poured a cup of tea for the Wind Emperor, and the look on her face was joyful and frightened, intertwined, forming an extremely sad and pitiful face.
"Your Majesty, the concubines have a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not." Concubine Shu was bold, and the corners of her lips pursed slightly.
"Say it." Emperor Feng waved his hand, with an expression of unrestrained tolerance on his face, "It's okay to be wrong. ”
"Your Majesty, Sister Hua is sincere to the emperor, and she is also concerned about the country of Feng. If Sister Hua still wants to return to the palace in the future, can the emperor agree?"
These words had been swirling in Concubine Shu's mind for a long time, and when she said them, she could vaguely feel the Wind Emperor's rapid breathing and the dark dissatisfaction.
The arrival of the Wind Emperor this time was begged for by Feng Xu. Thinking of this, Concubine Shu's heart kept sinking.
"You intercede for her"
"The emperor forgives his sins, but in the deep palace, it is really difficult to have a good sister. Over the years, the concubines have been favored by Sister Hua, and they really don't want to see Sister Hua go away so lonely. Concubine Shu stiffened her neck, and her panic was even worse, "Your Majesty, Sister Hua is just a momentary gaffe, not intentional." ”
Not intentionally
Hualong is stubborn, and would rather bend than bend, and it is common for people to have such an end. He didn't want to let Hua Long leave like this, everything was her own will. can be so gaffe in front of the emperor, only she Hualong can do it.
"Concubine Shu, you are going to say such bad things today"
Concubine Shu sighed in her heart, frowning, "The emperor forgives the sin, the concubine is afraid, the concubine is not intentional." It's just that these days, the concubine has always thought about Sister Hua. ”
"Thinking about what she is doing, a master who doesn't know the times. If the women in the back court are all the same as her, so is it worth it?"
The courtyard is deep and the heavy doors are closed. Concubine Shu's eyes stayed on the high candle on the side. Emperor Feng's face looked noble and cold, and for a while, Concubine Shu didn't dare to say more. After all, if you annoy the Wind Emperor, the kindness that your own children ask for you will be over.
She shrunk her neck a little fearfully, "The emperor forgives the sin, it's the concubines who don't know how to be interesting, and the concubines who talk too much." ”
"I don't blame you." The Wind Emperor shook his head, "You just said something that many women in this harem dare not say." Hualong was like this at the beginning, in her eyes, she always had a lot of truth. ”
Concubine Shu frowned, looking at Emperor Feng's nostalgic look, it didn't look like she was going to put Hua Long to death.
It is also said that whether it is the relationship between men and women, or the old love of childhood sweethearts, Emperor Feng and Hualong will be intertwined in this life, and it is difficult to give up.
"Thank you for your kindness."
Emperor Feng looked at her, and only then did he see that Concubine Shu had lost a lot of weight. The real person is shriveled down, skinny, and alive from a skeleton dressed in human skin, which looks even more haggard at this time. The exposed arm is even thinner than firewood.
Feng Xu is right, Concubine Shu is indeed sick, and the whole person has been drained.
"You're not sick, are you?"
"No, nothing." Concubine Shu was a little scared, "It's just a palpitation, it's always okay." The concubines now only hope that Xu'er can share the worries of the emperor, and in the future, she can share the worries of Changqi, do her duty as a courtier, and be the pillar of our Feng Country. As for the concubines, there is nothing more to ask for. ”
It is rare not to read the throne in such a situation.
Emperor Feng nodded, took Concubine Shu's hand, and asked her to sit down in front of him.
"The deep palace is lonely, it's hard for you." I don't know if this sentence is said to Hua Long, who has already left, or to Concubine Shu.
But Concubine Shu was happy and relieved in her heart, she was only the gentleness of Emperor Feng for this moment, just for her.
"Your Majesty, in the hearts of the concubines, there is an emperor in this life." Concubine Shu took Emperor Feng's hand and touched her thin face.
