Those personal guards may not want to get involved in this kind of thing. They packed up their weapons and left after the order was given. Sanfujin became more and more panicked, but he heard Concubine De say coldly: "Just now you pointed your sword at the princess, no matter you
Knowing or not knowing their identities, spreading the word, let alone deliberately provoking conflicts between the court and Karaqin, being disrespectful to the princess is already a capital offense. I originally wanted to keep things quiet, but if any of you like to talk about it, anyway,
The cost is your own life."
Everyone looked at each other in shock. Seeing that they were wavering, Lan Qi made up her mind and turned to tell Shun Anyan: "Take them away, and take the princesses with you as well."
"Mother..." Wen Xian seemed eager to defend, but his mother got off the horse and said calmly, "You and your sister will go back first. You will be separated tomorrow, and then we can talk properly."
"Wen Xian, let's go." Duan Jing was more sensible and understood that it was not appropriate to get entangled at this moment, so she ordered several Karaqin guards around her to leave with her.
Except for the emperor's personal soldiers who came with De Concubine, everyone else dispersed. Shun Anyan followed Prince Cheng's people for a while and seemed to have other instructions or inquiries. After half way, he turned back and saw De Concubine alone.
You stood there with Chengjun Prince Fujin, and the people who came with her held their horses and stood there.
The autumn wind was blowing, and there were overgrown weeds here. The thick grass was knee-high in places. The wind blew and the waves made it look spectacular. Lan Qi looked at the scenery in the distance and said to Sanfujin: "You have been raised in the capital since you were young. You rarely see this kind of grass.
Such a scene, it’s rare to come out, it’s time to take a good look at the scenery everywhere, increase your experience and broaden your mind, right?”
Although San Fujin was arrogant, she was not stupid. When Concubine De spoke so nicely, she listened quietly. She could not contradict Concubine De in any case, but she did not expect that she, who tried to be humble, would be irritated by the concubine's next words.
Bian could only hear: "But people like you are so narrow-minded that I'm afraid they won't be able to broaden their horizons in their lifetime."
This sentence was said by Lan Qi, her eyes were cold when she said it. As expected, San Fujin suddenly raised his head and glared at her fiercely. Lan Qi sneered: "If you look at yourself squarely, will you be so miserable?"
San Fujin gritted his teeth and was ready to fight. He snorted coldly: "As an elder, I think you are the one who can't bear to say such things to me."
Lan Qi smiled: "Yes, you can still say such things at this moment, which shows your backbone. But do you know that only when you have life can you have backbone."
"My concubine cannot understand what the empress is saying." Sanfujin's voice trembled slightly, and he looked around in fear. Her people were already far away. If Concubine De really wanted to kill her here, it would not be difficult. However,
As for him, he wanted to kill her just because of a few words of argument? She hurriedly defended, "It was Wen Xian who tricked my concubine into coming here..."
"Is the truth important?" Lan Qi took a step closer to her and said coldly, "Since you entered the door, how much of everything you said and did is true? Now you want to be more truthful in your words.
Then let’s clean up all the past problems together?”
San Fujin's eyes widened and he was speechless. It was clear that she was the victim today. If she hadn't been smarter and noticed that someone seemed to be watching her in the past two days, she might have really fallen for Wen Xian and the others and didn't know what to do.
What happened here? I thought I could counterattack and let the guards teach Wen Xian a lesson, but Concubine De suddenly came and didn't even listen to a word of excuse.
Lan Qi looked serious and said: "If you talk about today's things everywhere, you will never open your mouth to speak again in the future. If you don't believe me, you can give it a try. Don't think that the things you have said all the time,
There really is no one who cares about you. Believe it or not, even if you are here with your head in a different place, no one will shed a tear for you. No one inside or outside the palace wants to have anything to do with you. That’s why.
I won’t discipline you and take care of you, but you’ll be so complacent that you can’t see anything clearly.”
San Fujin was so anxious that he couldn't care less, so he said arrogantly: "Empress De Fei, I am the concubine of the Emperor, Prince Fujin."
Lan Qi nodded: "It can be sealed, but it can also be deposed. Let me ask you, if you go back and talk about this now, besides your parents, can you count one or two people who can speak for you and let me listen?
listen."
"Mother, she..." Sanfujin just started to speak. He didn't know whether he was hit by the wind or was really speechless. His mouth was half open and he didn't move. His eyes were wandering uneasily. For a long time, he couldn't say anything.
When she came out, even the things she could think of were just insignificant little guys who didn't even have the qualifications to speak, so why should they say a word to her?
Even her husband can't. Sanfujin himself knows best how they are living as a couple. As for her mother-in-law, don't even expect her. She has been longing for someone to replace her.
Lan Qi asked coldly: "No?"
San Fujin's eyes were already red and he turned away from Concubine De.
Lan Qi said again: "Today's matter can be forgotten as soon as we leave here, because you are Yinzhi's wife and Hongqing's mother-in-law, and I don't want to hurt you. Now Yinzhi is the king of the county and has a bright future. You looked down on him in the past."
, now you should be content. Even if you are not satisfied, you have no choice. Why not be more restless? As far as I know, even your father doesn't want to meet you. Why bother forcing yourself to do this?
?”
San Fujin's momentum became weaker and weaker, and he pursed his lips without saying a word.
Seeing her like this, Lan Qi smiled coldly: "What should be said today and what should not be said, I will say it here. My patience and tolerance will only last until today. From now on, if you bully my children or other siblings, you will be punished.
Or if you speak rudely to me or other concubines, I will follow the rules of my ancestors and clean up the royal family. You know in your heart that there are few people who can speak for you, and there are many people who can replace you.
From now on, take care of yourself."
San Fujin raised her head and wanted to glare hard at the person in front of her, but as soon as their eyes met, she was defeated. Concubine De poked her heart with every word, without even a single angry scolding.
There was something wrong with the family rules and she just said these simple words so calmly that her heart went cold.
Lan Qi ignored her and turned around and walked towards Shun Anyan. Seeing the empress coming, Shun Anyan hurriedly stepped forward to greet her and gave a rough explanation of what had just happened.
It seems that Princess Wen Xian and Princess Duanjing deliberately tricked Prince Cheng of Duke Fujin into coming here. Of course, they wanted to teach her a lesson and scare her, but Fujin was also alert. In addition, Prince Cheng thought that he was going to escort Concubine De and her daughter back to the palace, so he sent her to the palace.
The soldiers around him were left behind by his wife and then protected and cared for their mother and son. Just a dozen of them were at Fujin's disposal. Today they were ordered to follow Fujin secretly to protect her. They didn't expect to encounter such a thing.
Lan Qi didn't take it seriously, got on the horse and walked back slowly. Shun Anyan simply held the horse for the empress, but the empress asked him: "How did you know?"
Shun Anyan said hurriedly: "I was ordered to escort the queen and the princess back to the capital tomorrow. When I went to report to the princess, I found that the princess had gone out, and many of the guards under Prince Cheng had also gone out. I felt a little strange, so I followed her to see.
Sure enough, something happened."
Lan Qi asked again: "Why didn't you just bring them back instead of bringing them back instead?"
Shun Anyan replied steadily: "Sanfujin will definitely not really hurt the princesses, but it concerns the imperial court and the Haraqin tribe. I cannot act without permission. I have no ability to stop them and settle the matter. I can only ask the emperor or the empress for orders."
But when he came back, the emperor was discussing urgent matters with his ministers, and out of desperation, he asked the empress."
Lan Qi smiled: "Now Princess, I blame you for coming to me to complain, and blame you for not helping her even though you knew she was in danger."
But Shun Anyan relaxed her serious and tense face and smiled happily: "As long as the princess is safe and sound."
The young man holding the horse was the one Lan Qi watched grow up. In the past, when Empress Xiaoyi arranged a baby marriage, everyone just laughed it off. Unexpectedly, the two children grew up as childhood sweethearts, and they were really in love with each other for a long time. Xuan Ye proposed to her
After a few times, they both agreed to match up the young couple, but Wen Xian had a bad temper, and I didn't know what she thought. I was afraid that she only regarded Shun Anyan as a childhood playmate. After hearing her daughter's heartfelt words that night, she was also
Feel at ease.
Autumn days are short now, and it was in the evening when Lan Qi and the emperor rode back. At this time, they were leisurely riding back to the camp. It was already dark. The road back from there was not short. Sanfujin now had no one to escort him. He was pampered.
She didn't know how long it would take for her to come back, which was enough for her to suffer some hardships. But after thinking about it, Lan Qi sent someone to look for her along the way, saying that as long as she watched her from a distance, there was no need to help.
The emperor was still discussing state affairs with the ministers. Lan Qi did not need to go to report what happened, so she went back to her tent first. Wen Xian and Duan Jing were waiting inside anxiously, and Bu Guiren was standing aside and saw two children.
He lingered in front of the door and asked them what happened, but no one would tell them.
When Wen Xian saw E Niang coming back, he was about to pounce on her and act coquettishly, but he was frightened, so he hid behind his sister and bowed quietly and timidly to Empress De Fei. Lan Qi tiredly sat down to rest, and Bu Guiren came over.
Asked aside: "What's wrong? They don't even pay attention to me."
Lan Qi shook her head: "I'll tell my sister another day. I'm tired and there's nothing important. My sister will take Duanjing to rest. Although you have to follow me all the way to Haraqin, there won't be many days to get together."
Bu Guiren knew Lan Qi's temper, so he stopped asking and started to leave with Duan Jing. Wen Xian was timid now and pulled his sister to go with him. Lan Qi gave her a faint look and she stood still.
The room was quiet for a while. Huan Chun Luzhu came to fetch water to serve the empress to wash and change clothes. Wen Xian stood aside stupidly. Huan Chun winked at the princess and asked her to come forward to serve her. However, the master noticed and said coldly: "Just let it go."
She stood there, or else she stood outside to blow the wind."
After a long time, the Queen's place was tidied up. The emperor sent a message from the other side of the tent to ask if the Queen had come over. Another news was that San Fujin finally came back on his own. Prince Cheng was so anxious that he sent troops to look for her. At this time, Fujin was in harmony with her.
Prince Cheng and Prince Cheng were talking together in Concubine Rong's tent.
Lan Qi then looked at her daughter and told her: "Go to Concubine Rong's tent and apologize to your third brother."
Wen Xian suddenly opened his eyes wide and blurted out: "I won't go."
