Chapter 65 Chapter 65(1/2)
Feng Bao was waiting outside Jingren's palace when he suddenly saw a young eunuch rushing towards him with a pale face.
"You seek death, the sky is falling, why are you running in such a hurry?"
Feng Bao asked someone to stop him, slapped him in the face and cursed him lowly. The most taboo in the palace was for him to run in a panic like this. If he was not careful, he would collide with the noble lord. What's more, the emperor was here at the moment.
Anyone who disturbed the holy driver would be unable to eat and walked around.
"The Emperor...the Imperial Concubine..." The little eunuch pointed in the direction in which he was coming. He ran so hard that he couldn't breathe, but he still persisted and trembled as he finished speaking, "The Imperial Concubine is here!"
Feng Bao's eyes widened instantly.
"What did you say? Who, who is coming?"
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
Before the little eunuch could finish speaking, some noises came from the moon arch outside the courtyard.
Feng Bao suddenly raised his eyes as if he had an ominous premonition, and saw the red-painted imperial concubine stopped in front of the moon arch. Then he was shocked to see the empressed imperial concubine walking directly from the nanny.
He hugged the fourth prince, scolded the palace officials who blocked the way from Jingren Palace, and came towards the main hall with great momentum.
The imperial concubine's menacing look made Feng Bao very angry.
He didn't have time to think about anything. He rushed forward eagerly and said hello sincerely. At the same time, he looked at the fourth prince who was being held by the imperial concubine in his arms with fear like the anxious nanny next to him.
I'm afraid something unexpected might happen.
"Where is the Holy One?"
"Your Majesty, your Majesty is visiting the eldest prince in the palace. The eldest prince caught a cold the night before..."
Wen Yin didn't have the patience to listen to his ramblings. Knowing where Zhu Jing was going, she stretched out her hand and waved him away. Feng Bao saw that the frail imperial concubine had just let go of one hand, and then suddenly became unstable and trembling.
The look almost scared him out of his wits.
"Your Majesty, the Fourth Prince is strong and strong. Please don't tire yourself out. Why don't you let your slave hold you?"
Wen Yin turned a deaf ear and walked forward with the fourth prince in her arms.
Feng Bao was so anxious that he chased after him: "Madam, please slow down, be careful of the slippery road..."
At this time, the movement in the outer hall had already reached the inner hall.
Zhu Jing's movement of holding the tea bowl stopped in mid-air, his heart suddenly skipped a beat and he subconsciously wanted to get up.
The sound of footsteps getting closer and closer, and the thick felt curtain at the door of the palace was opened from the outside.
Concubine Xian stood up in a hurry: "Why don't I explain to the Imperial Concubine that Your Majesty is just here to visit the eldest prince..."
"Explain what?" Wen Yin carried the fourth prince into the palace, "Do I still need you to explain?"
After she entered the palace, she immediately stopped without taking a step forward. She stood at the door of the palace and raised her eyes. Her eyes slowly slid over the family of three sitting around the table. Her clear lips slightly raised, "I have eyes."
, I can see it myself, I don’t need others to distort the facts for me.”
Concubine Xian closed her mouth and looked at the Holy Lord opposite with some difficulty.
The eldest prince, who had just been memorizing his homework, now clearly felt the subtlety of the atmosphere and lowered his head without daring to speak.
Zhu Jing suppressed his emotional confusion at this moment and looked at her as calmly as possible.
She stood at the entrance of Jingren Palace and looked at him. She was wearing a bright red cloak wrapped with plum branches, and she didn't even have time to take off her hood. She must have been walking in a hurry during that period. At this moment, the tip of her nose was red, she was breathing lightly, and her cheeks were covered.
Sweat.
At this moment, he remembered that the moon arch in front of Concubine Xian's palace was so narrow that she couldn't get away from her. Thinking that she had braved the cold to walk this distance, and that she was just sick and caught the wind, he couldn't help but feel...
Slightly stunned.
"What are you doing here? You're just recovering from your illness, are you afraid that you'll take advantage of yourself?" Seeing that she was still carrying the fourth prince and going out together to make mischief, she couldn't help but said in a more serious tone, "She actually brought the fourth prince out with her, it's just nonsense.
Wen Yin smiled sarcastically, "Nonsense? Yes, I'm joking. The Holy One came to visit the sick eldest prince because of the deep love between father and son. I came to visit the eldest prince as a mother-in-law, and the fourth prince came to visit his elder brother as a younger brother. That's all.
It’s nonsense.”
As she said that, she brushed her hair, and when her eyes glanced at the three people sitting around the table again, the emotions on her face calmed down, "That's right, maybe my arrival has disturbed your warmth. After all, it's my fault, isn't it?
I have lost my sense. It is right for the Holy One to scold me like this."
Zhu Jing took a deep breath, put down the tea bowl and stood up, "Don't talk nonsense. It's getting late, I'll go back with you..."
"Don't." Wen Yin stopped her softly, and a smile overflowed from her lips, "You left as soon as I came. It seems that I am intolerant and that I came here specially to intercept people. The good teacher knows that I am really just here to visit you.
I'm just a prince, and I'm not here to make trouble unreasonably. Please stay here in Jingren Palace, otherwise I will really do my concubine's nonsense. I can't bear such a big charge of jealousy."
In Zhu Jing's ugly face, her clear eyes reflected his shadow: "Wangsheng, it's better to be exposed to rain and dew in the future, but don't act like you are either a concubine or the fourth prince, lest I take it seriously.
Well, the fourth prince will take it seriously in the future. If that happens, we, mother and son, will really be doomed. Therefore, in the future, I still ask you to take more care of your beloved concubines and sons, so as to avoid misunderstandings between mother and son."
The last look he gave him was a bit disheartening.
After saying that, he turned around and left without any regret.
Not to mention how Zhu Jing reacted, Concubine Xian was shocked.
Every sentence has a needle and every word has a thorn. How can the Holy One endure this?
Needless to say, Zhu Jing was indeed choked at this moment. His face turned black and blue.
This was probably the first time in his life that he had been humiliated in public, in front of other concubines and the prince. This was undoubtedly a loss of face and dignity.
However, between continuing to stay in Jingren Palace to regain some of the emperor's honor, and chasing after the woman who left full of disappointment and angrily, he still chose the latter with gritted teeth.
Concubine Xian looked at the Holy Lord who was quickly leaving, and her face instantly turned gray.
Although the snow had been swept away outside the palace, the ground was still a little wet. Zhu Jing was frightened when he looked at the frail figure walking quickly with a child in his arms.
He stepped forward quickly, three steps at a time, and was about to catch her: "Wen Yin..."
"Go away!" Wen Yin immediately waved him away, her face pale and her lips trembling, "Go and accompany your beloved concubine and son, go quickly!"
Stumbling, she panted quickly and hurried out.
His eyes were fixed on her reddish eye circles, and he was speechless for a while.
He also followed up quickly. Seeing her fierce reaction, he didn't dare to pull her anymore. He only lowered his eyes and stretched out his arms to protect her, fearing that she would fall and the child would fall.
"I……"
"Go away!"
Zhu Jing saw that she was not even sitting on the floor, and was actually trying to leave on foot with the child in her arms. He couldn't bear it anymore and stepped forward, took her back and leaned over to pick her up and the child together.
"If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it back in the bedroom!"
In the Yangxin Hall, the sound of broken porcelain could be heard one after another.
"Don't tell me, I don't want to hear it! Just leave!"
After a while, Feng Bao saw His Majesty pulling up his collar and coming out of his bed. With sharp eyes, he noticed that there was actually a blue spot on His Majesty's forehead.
Zhu Jing sat in front of the case for a while, but the depression in his heart made it impossible for him to read a word in the memorial. He stood up with a sullen face and walked around the hall with his hands behind his back, trying to calm himself down, but it still didn't work.
"Feng Bao, please go in and explain."
Although he didn't think he had any fault in this matter. After all, it was natural for an emperor to have three palaces and six courtyards. However, thinking of her frowning and looking like she couldn't handle the matter, he couldn't help but give the order.
.
Feng Bao snorted and went in. After a while, he came out holding his forehead.
Zhu Jing suddenly felt a headache. He pinched his eyebrows and walked around the hall again, taking a deep breath.
This was probably the first time in these years that he had a headache due to a woman's petty temper. However, this headache also contained a few rays of pain that touched the tip of his heart, probably because she was holding back the tears in her eyes just now.
"Move all my official duties to Qinzheng Hall."
He suppressed his annoyance and whispered the order, then walked out of the palace.
He felt that she might need to calm down a bit, and he also needed to calm down a bit.
After Zhu Jing left, Nian Xia took the basin into the bed, twisted the wet handkerchief and went over to wipe Wen Yin's face carefully.
"Your Majesty just went to the Qinzheng Hall, and he looked unhappy when he left."
Wen Yin hummed to indicate that she understood. At this moment, her face was completely calm, and there were no other fluctuating emotions such as anger or anger just now.
There was silence in the hall, and the hourglass rustled time.
Nian Xia carefully wiped her white and transparent cheeks, and she always felt that the person in front of her was so pale that she seemed to disappear. It gave her the illusion that the candle was about to burn to the end, and it made her panic every time she saw the empress.
After that day, the empress's temperament changed greatly in front of others, and she became as dead as wax that is about to burn out in person.
The nanny seemed to have guessed the empress's intention, and she fell ill due to excessive grief. The empress did not want to let the nanny serve her anymore, so she sent her to a side hall to recuperate from afar.
She was born dull and could not guess the empress's intentions, but only made some vague guesses.
She couldn't help but look in the direction of the palace entrance.
The empress probably wants to take revenge on the Holy Lord. She doesn’t know what the final result the empress wants to achieve, but she hopes that the empress can get what she wants.
The next day, Zhu Jing from the Qinzheng Palace learned about her leaving the Yangxin Palace.
After learning that she took the fourth prince to Jingren Palace again, and that she ate snacks and drank soup in Jingren Palace without hesitation, Zhu Jing's face could no longer be described as dark.
