Article 514

Ouyang Hongyu's face turned cold, and he turned even paler. But he responded with a light smile: "The concubine has nothing to do, so she wants to go around this 'imperial garden', but she doesn't want to disturb the concubine's Yaxing, which is really a crime, and the concubine will retire." After speaking, Ouyang Hongyu turned around and walked towards the 'Chongyang Palace' with Qinglan without looking back.

At this moment, Ruyue's face was even more ugly than Ouyang Hongyu, and she couldn't help but say angrily: "Stop" and then stepped forward with a silk handkerchief, and said coldly: "What did Concubine Xian mean just now?" I want to use the rumor that the main palace is driving people out of the garden. I still want to tell the other palace concubines. This palace can't accommodate you", she is no longer the stupid Ruyue she used to be, how can she not know what Ouyang Hongyu wants to play?

However, Ouyang Hongyu, who was facing the questioning, only sneered, and said without pretentiousness: "The noble concubine is serious. But the Tao is reasonable", and then turned his head to look at Ruyue, and his eyebrows moved. Leng said: "I believe that with the wisdom of the noble concubine today. In the battle for the throne, there is no rival since then, but it's a pity that the original queen. I didn't get the emperor's mercy."

"You Ouyang Hongyu. You deceive people too much" Ruyue's face changed greatly, and she said angrily with a tepid breath, "Don't think that this palace doesn't know who designed the catastrophe six years ago, you Ouyang clan will get the same fate one day"

Ouyang Hongyu raised her eyebrows. But she laughed even louder, her eyes showed a touch of imperceptible sadness, and then sneered: "Guifei Niangniang, the concubine advises, there are some things that can be fought for, but some things can only be obtained even if they use up their life's strength, and after these years, the concubine can be regarded as having seen it thoroughly." Stay in this palace. I just want to spend this life as a remnant. If the mother really wants to fight, according to the opinion of the concubine, it is better to find the 'Qin Zhaorong' who was canonized by the emperor today, the concubine heard that her eyes are very similar to that person"

Saying that, Ouyang Hongyu ignored Ruyue and stepped forward, her light blue robe fluttering in the wind, just like a fairy who walked away in the wind

Ruyue was a little stunned. After carefully digesting Ouyang Hongyu's words. His eyes suddenly turned cold. She turned her eyes to look at Qiao'er, who was pale and frightened with her head down, and suddenly understood something, and said coldly in disbelief: "Qiao'er." What Ouyang Hongyu said just now was true? There is a person in the palace who is similar to her, but how is it possible, how is it possible

When Qiao'er heard this, her face suddenly turned pale, and her head was lowered, she knelt on the ground, and said with tears: "Miss, the slave didn't mean to lie to you, but today the slave heard that the emperor captured a woman who looks almost exactly the same as Miss, but she has a pair of eyes similar to that person, and she has been canonized as 'Zhaorong' today and given to live in 'Cold Moon Palace'." Slaves. It's not that the slave doesn't want to tell the young lady, but that she is afraid of the young lady."

A cold sound came, and Qiao'er's side face was covered with red five-finger marks.

Ruyue looked at her resentfully, her chest rising and falling. But tears overflowed in her eyes, she grabbed Qiao'er's shirt fiercely, and cried: "Do you know how much effort I have spent to get to this point? You didn't even report it, do you know that if I make a wrong move, I may lose the emperor forever? Do you know" In the silent palace, the six maids in blue clothes and long skirts stood with their heads bowed, occasionally looking up timidly at the golden cage covered with red brocade, looking at each other in pairs, and then they all bowed their heads very tacitly, still not daring to make any sound

They are the imperial maids who were ordered by the emperor to be transferred from the "Heart Palace", specially serving this Zhaorong Niangniang who has not yet seen the appearance, although they know that this lady seems to look like a concubine, but those eyes are like the person who was given to live in the "Heart Palace" three years ago, but they have been in the "Cold Moon Palace" for more than three days, but they still have never heard this lady say a word, or even order anything. Behind the veil, there was only a vague dark figure, like a statue, which did not move, although it was dim

At noon, Gonggong Qin stepped into the hall on time like a daily check, the brown red-crowned crane court clothes were stained with a little frost outside the hall, and the hand that was a little purple from the frost tightly held the white dust, and also held a slender, full of pink plum blossom branches, he looked at the six "maids in front of the palace" standing on the side and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, and then stepped forward, carefully placed the plum blossom branch in the cage, and whispered: "Zhaorong Niangniang, this is what the emperor wants a slave to bring you", said, He took out a bright yellow silk brocade from his bosom and slowly placed it on top of the plum blossom branches.

There was still no sound in the cage, and Gonggong Qin looked up at the blurred figure curled up on the soft leather carpet with a little uneasiness, and wanted to say something, but he swallowed it again, and could only sigh silently, and quietly retreated. But when he passed before the main hall, a little palace maid glanced at him, lowered her head and followed out of the "Cold Moon Palace".

"How's the mother?" As soon as he stepped out of the palace, Gonggong Qin asked the blue-clothed maid, with anxiety in his eyes, he really didn't understand why the emperor wandered in the plum blossom forest all day long, as if he was remembering Concubine De Niangniang, but he chose to break off a cold plum branch in the plum blossom forest and asked him to run to give it to this Zhaorong Niangniang, who didn't even know his identity.

The blue-clothed maid lowered her head, and then shook her head a little blankly, and said: "Back to the words of the chief manager, the slave maid has been in the 'Cold Moon Palace' for three days, Zhaorong Niangniang has not said a word, and even the food ordered by the emperor to be sent has eaten very little", in fact, you can't blame this lady who has never met before, as soon as she entered the palace, she was imprisoned in this big "golden silk cage" and was raised as a canary, even if she got grace, but it was passed into the harem, it was just a joke

Father-in-law Qin's eyebrows were twisted, and the dust in his hand was pinched tighter, with an anxious but hesitant look, not because he was worried, but because of this mother's temperament, it seemed that Father-in-law Qin couldn't help but close his eyes, and shook his head vigorously, not wanting to remind himself of the taboo name again, but when those proud and cold eyes appeared uncontrollably in his mind again, his heart palpitated, could it be that the emperor was really because of her eyes

Thinking of this, Gonggong Qin couldn't help but shudder, perhaps, no one knows better than him how much the emperor cares about the death of Concubine De, for three years, the emperor will go to that plum forest every day, and even sometimes lie in that cold place and look at the flying plum blossoms

He remembered that one day, in the spring of March, the begonia flowers were floating everywhere, and after the early court, the emperor did not go to the "imperial study" but walked to the "begonia forest" called the forbidden place as if he was evil, and then stayed there for a whole day

"Begonia Forest" is planted by Huagui before his death, three steps of a tree, a full one hundred and eight, when he and the emperor were very young, Huagui people often say: one hundred and eight, in Buddhism is all the sorrow of the world, like the Buddha rosary of the monk, a bead and a sorrow, chanting the Buddha, is to read the suffering of this world. It was only later that the noble man fell into the water and drowned, and there were many rumors in the palace that this "begonia forest" was haunted, so even later, no one dared to step into it, until the emperor ascended the throne later, and this place was set as a forbidden place

On that day, it was March 28, which was also the birthday of the noble man, three years ago, he also saw the emperor holding a plain concubine flying through the flower forest from the window and went to the "Begonia Forest", and that day was also March 28

At that time, at that moment, he thought that the emperor had finally untied his heart knot, and he could finally forget about Ruyue Guifei, and his face was smiling again, but the ending was

"That's it, you take good care of Niangniang, if there is anything, come and report it immediately" Gonggong Qin closed his eyes and forced himself not to think about the previous things anymore, after all, Concubine De is gone, in this harem, even such a deserted woman will quietly dye this harem with blood, and which woman can maintain the original purity? With a light sigh, Gonggong Qin stepped out of the palace in small steps when the maid answered

This year's cold winter seems to be particularly cold, the howling north wind blows on the body, like a needle prick into the blood and bones, making people shiver non-stop, Qin Gonggong looked up at the entire withered and depressed "Imperial Garden". The road made of white marble makes this winter even paler

"Father-in-law Qin" not far away, a deep and elegant voice came, Father-in-law Qin was stunned, and then turned to look at the white-robed man in front of the plum blossom forest, bowed his head, took two steps forward, hooked up and said: "The slave sees the third prince, the prince is a thousand years old", and then moved the dust in his hand, stood aside, and waited for Yu Haotian's question.

Yu Haotian was dressed in pure white, with a jade crown and black hair, and a handsome and elegant face with a little haggard, he glanced at Gonggong Qin, twisted his sword eyebrows as if he was used to it, and said in a low voice: "This king heard that the imperial brother recently appointed a concubine, and the woman's eyes are very similar", speaking of general, Yu Haotian's voice suddenly stopped, moved his eyebrows, as if he didn't want to mention the person's name again, and then said leisurely: "Is there such a thing?" ”

Father-in-law Qin's brows were also tightly wrung up, it seemed that in just a few days, the matter had spread all over the harem, and even the people in the palace had already known about it, thinking for a while, Father-in-law Qin told the truth, and said: "Back to the prince's words, the emperor didn't know where to order a show girl three days ago, canonized as a second-grade Zhaorong, and now he is given the 'Cold Moon Palace', the emperor decreed that no one should visit", in fact, the woman in the cage is not a show girl at all, Qin An doesn't even know where the emperor found this woman from, as for " The four words "expensive and famous" are just random compilations

Yu Haotian's eyes moved, but he didn't say anything, and then just muttered, "Is it true?" Is it really true? There was a pair of eyes that resembled those of the man

Gonggong Qin didn't dare to say anything, just lowered his head, and then said respectfully: "Prince, if there is no order, the slave will go to the 'plum blossom forest' to serve the emperor", said, when Yu Haotian did not respond, Qin An lowered his head and hurriedly ran into the plum blossom forest, the howling cold wind was still blowing, blowing the pink in the sky

In the depths of the plum blossom forest, the ground was full of pink, and Gonggong Qin hurriedly walked forward, and when he caught a glimpse of the bright yellow that was silent, he couldn't help but stop, and then lowered his head and stood aside

Yu Haoxuan was dressed in a bright yellow robe, standing in the chaotic petals, the golden silk embroidered dragon totem was shining in the warm sun, he looked up at a broken plum tree, his slender fingers caressed the broken branches, as if caressing his own wounds, the movements were extremely light, the dark eyes were as silent as a pool of water, cold, but as if he was thinking about something

After a while, he let go of his hand, and his body did not move, but the low words came from the wind into the ears of Gonggong Qin, who was standing not far away: "Something, gave it to her?" ”

Gonggong Qin's eyebrows moved, although he still had a lot of confusion in his heart, but he still bowed his head and responded respectfully: "If the slave is the emperor, the things have been handed over to Zhaorong Niangniang, but I just listened to the 'imperial maid' said that Niangniang's mood these days is too quiet, and even the food is very little."

Yu Haoxuan listened, but closed his eyes, and then as if he hadn't heard anything, he walked step by step towards the depths of the plum blossom forest, without looking at the chaotic scenery around him, as if he was contemplating, but as if he didn't think about anything

Gonggong Qin looked at the figure of the emperor gradually walking away, struggling in his heart whether to follow forward, but after thinking for a while, he just raised his feet and wanted to walk forward, but his footsteps finally fixed in place, the cold wind passed through the long sleeves, and the brown robe rattled, a little, but seeing the white figure of the third prince passing from the corner of his eyes, he immediately raised his head and wanted to say something, but when he caught a glimpse of Yu Haotian's haggard eyebrows, he lowered his head silently again.

It cannot be denied, since the death of Concubine De, this palace has indeed been a lot deserted, even the county lord of Leng Xiao Country and the princess of Ziyu Country have been cold and dull when they marry into the harem, as if, this harem has disappeared in a moment, although it has been in crisis for the past three years, there are still many things that are different, such as the emperor and the third prince, and even the cold and evil lord of Leng Guo back then

Thinking of the Leng Lord, Qin An couldn't help but have some doubts, he still vaguely remembered that when the news of Concubine De's departure spread throughout the palace, the shocked and stunned look of the Leng Lord, as well as the unbelievable words: "It is impossible for her to be such a smart and talented woman, and it is absolutely impossible for her to despise her own life so much", at that time, the entire palace was in shock, and the matter of Concubine De jumping off the cliff had far overshadowed the truth that the emperor gave poisoned wine.

Everyone will only remember that the woman who looked ugly, but had a pair of clear eyes that people can't forget for the rest of her life, did not cry and beg the emperor like the Ruyue Guifei back then, but drank the poisonous wine, made a poisonous oath, and then threw her body into the icy pool water, and even disdained the honor of being buried in the imperial mausoleum

Perhaps, this is why she is so unforgettable, and even more so taboo-like, but it still spreads in every corner of the palace, like a mark that pierces everyone's heart, and cannot be erased
