"Please help me bring a message to my mother, saying that I have to leave beforehand." Al Yunduo left this sentence, turned around and left.
Looking at her hurried away figure, Xia He asked worriedly: "Empress, if she goes to Qiankun Palace now, will the emperor blame her if he asks?"
If she wants to survive, she has no one to rely on in the palace but herself.
Chu Xianxue just stared blankly in the direction she left for a long time, then came back to her senses and shook her head with a smile: "No, the emperor is discussing matters, and she can't see the emperor. Besides, what can she do if she does? What else can she do?
It’s not like I can only be punished in vain, let’s go back to Lingxuan Hall.”
"But Concubine Yun..." Xia He looked at Chu Xianxue, and suddenly felt a cold chill in his heart. Her third lady was such a simple woman, but she actually learned the intrigues in the palace.
If my brother loses his life on the land of Dajin, the worst he can do is to fight with Dajin to death. Now she has stayed in the palace as a hostage, and her brother was attacked as soon as he left. Dajin obviously does not need to be at this juncture.
This is unnecessary.
After thinking about it, Al Yunduo came to Qiankun Palace again. Eunuch Cao saw him from a distance again, but this time there was an unpleasant premonition in his heart.
Why is this ancestor here again? Could it be that he knows the news about her brother?
Thought like this in his heart, Eunuch Cao still smiled and greeted her: "I've seen Concubine Yun."
"Well," Al Yunduo glanced at the people standing outside the door, who all looked very strange, and said casually, "Eunuch Cao, why are these guards different from the last time?"
"Concubine Huiyun, those people died of a serious illness a few days ago." Eunuch Cao replied with a shrewd look in his eyes and a smile on his face.
"Oh, it's so sudden," Al Yunduo nodded as if suddenly, "Eunuch Cao, I'm here to see the emperor, is he inside?" She walked up a few steps with her skirt and was stopped. She stopped.
He came down and looked at him in confusion and asked, "Eunuch Cao, what does this mean?"
Eunuch Cao's old face was wrinkled and he said in embarrassment: "Please forgive me, Imperial Concubine Yun. The Emperor and the adults are discussing matters in the palace. I'm afraid I can't see Imperial Concubine Yun at this time."
"It's okay if you don't go in. I just want to know if what happened to my brother is true?"
Unexpectedly, she would ask such a direct question. Eunuch Cao stood there in shock and said nothing.
"Since you can't tell me, I'd better go in and ask the emperor myself." He said and raised his feet.
"Concubine Yun, Concubine Yun—" Eunuch Cao called hurriedly, fearing that if the ancestor really pushed the door open, he would also be punished.
Al Yunduo stood quietly on the steps, waiting for him to speak. She was already upset, but she knew that she couldn't force her way in, and the reason why she had to pretend was because she desperately wanted an answer.
Eunuch Cao thought carefully before going up to him and saying with a smile: "Concubine Yun, the emperor doesn't want you to know, and he must have other plans. There are some things in the palace that you'd better not get to the bottom of, so as not to cause trouble for yourself."
"Since it's not convenient for Eunuch Cao to say it, then I'll just ask someone else," Al Yunduo felt depressed and said angrily, "Humph, I won't bother Eunuch Cao."
Eunuch Cao's eyebrows suddenly knitted into a line, and he reminded softly: "It is absolutely impossible for Concubine Yun to leave the palace. Last time you left the palace privately with the imperial edict, the emperor scolded all the slaves one by one. Please
Concubine Yun, for the sake of this old slave, please don’t make things difficult for your servants.”
This Eunuch Cao is deeply trusted by the emperor. If he goes against him at this time, he is afraid that he will not get any benefits. At this time, in the huge palace, there is no one to discuss countermeasures. Al Yunduo muttered: "Eunuch Cao, the fourth princess
When will you enter the palace?"
"The Fourth Prince took leave yesterday and said he was taking the Fourth Princess out to relax. He must have passed through Kyoto by now," Eunuch Cao raised his eyes and asked softly, "Didn't the Fourth Princess tell you about it?"
They actually left without saying goodbye!
Al Yunduo couldn't hide his surprise, and a little anger suddenly emerged in his heart. He bit his lip fiercely, turned around and left.
After returning to Baiyuan Garden, Al Yunduo opened the door angrily, raised his head and drank half a pot of herbal tea, and then the anger in his heart subsided a little.
"Come here! -" Al Yunduo took advantage of the situation and sat on a chair nearby, casually placing the teapot on the table, making a loud "bang" sound.
After a long while, a palace maid who looked a little older stepped in cautiously and said with chattering teeth: "Yun, Concubine Yun, yes, what are your orders?"
"I'm not calling you, I'm calling, wait a minute, what's her name?" Al Yunduo frowned, supported his forehead with his left hand, and kept tapping the fingers of his right hand alternately on the table, making a rhythmic sound.
Every blow hits the maid's heart.
After closing his eyes and thinking for a long time, Al Yunduo remembered, lowered his eyes and said: "Qing Glaze, call Qing Glaze over."
The room was silent.
Seeing that there was no movement for a long time, Al Yunduo raised his eyes and looked at her, only to see that there was a lot of sweat on her forehead, and the hand on her abdomen could not stop trembling slightly.
"Why are you shaking, are you afraid that I will kill you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was only a "plop", and the sad voice of "Mother, please spare my life, please spare your life -" immediately sounded.
"Okay, okay, go down quickly. I'm already upset, and I'm even more upset when I see you," Al Yunduo ignored her and called to the door, "Call Qing Glaze in -"
"Many, thank you for your kindness."
When Xu Ning came in, she happened to see the palace maid running out crawling on the ground. She couldn't help but laugh. This Princess Yunduo really did have a bad temper as her mother said.
"I've met Imperial Concubine Yun," Xu Ning said with a smile after saluting, "The summer heat is getting intense, and Imperial Concubine's temper is getting louder and louder."
"It's you." Al Yunduo just glanced at her lightly and calmed down his temper a little, "What brings the Crown Princess to my place?"
Xu Ning smiled nonchalantly and sat next to her: "Come to see Concubine Yun and give you something by the way."
When did she and Xu Ning have this friendship? I don't think it would be a good thing. Al Yunduo replied with a lack of interest: "I'm in a bad mood today. The Crown Princess has something to talk about. Please come back if you have nothing to do. Don't beat around the bush with me.
Lest you get burned."
This Al Yunduo really didn't show any mercy to anyone. Xu Ning smiled and raised her chin, while Binglan beside her moved slightly and reluctantly took out the letter.
Al Yunduo took the letter suspiciously, and after slowly unfolding it, he saw the words "Hello, brother, don't worry" neatly written on the paper, and he instantly jumped up from his chair.
"This is -" Al Yunduo, who had a dark face, suddenly smiled, and the two people beside him were also infected and started laughing.
"This is sent by someone from the Fourth Emperor's Aunt. I just received the letter and sent it to you without delay." Xu Ning stood up with a smile, "It's also a good way to calm down the anger of Concubine Yun, since it has achieved great results.
, then my concubine will leave first."
"Ah, then I won't give it away." Al Yunduo said without raising his head.
"By the way," Xu Ning suddenly turned around, "Concubine Yun should really choose a maid she likes. Otherwise, if someone delivers a letter in the future, she will have to send it to the East Palace again. It's not that I find it troublesome, but I'm just worried about Yun.
It’s always a little inconvenient for the concubine.”
After Xu Ning left, Qing Glaze quietly entered the room, looked inside at Al Yunduo who was sitting in a trance, and quickly lowered his head and called, "Concubine Yun."
Hearing the voice, Al Yunduo came back to his senses, folded his hands on his chest, and asked coldly: "Who came to Baihua Palace when I was away?"
"Back to the empress," Qing Glaze frowned and thought for a moment before replying softly, "Eunuch Cao came here not long after you left. Just as Eunuch Cao left, Concubine Xue also came to see you. When she saw that you were not here, she came to see you again.
Left in a hurry."
It was no coincidence that she met Chu Xianxue. It turned out that she had specially rushed to deliver a message to her. She just wanted her to make a fool of herself in front of the ministers and anger the emperor. I was afraid that the Queen Mother would not even help to inform her. How dare Chu Xianxue plot this.
she.
"Ha," Al Yunduo sneered, then thought of the palace maid's reaction just now, and asked very strangely, "Were they punished by Eunuch Cao?"
"Yes, when Eunuch Cao came, he heard them discussing," Qing Glaze raised his eyes to see her reaction, swallowed and continued, "I was scolded by Eunuch Cao for talking about the empress."
No wonder when she came back just now, the palace maids standing outside lowered their heads and didn't dare to raise them. Hey, these people were afraid of her to begin with. After Eunuch Cao told her, no one would dare to go against her in the future. Then this
Aren't the days very boring?
"They are all afraid of me," Al Yunduo shifted his eyes to the little girl in front of him and asked with a wicked smile, "Aren't you afraid of me?"
"Don't be afraid, I am not afraid of my wife."
Personal girl? Al Yunduo looked at the person in front of him up and down. He looked pretty decent. Although he was a little younger, he was still stable. Al Yunduo smiled and nodded.
"Then you should follow me from now on," Al Yunduo said in a different tone, "but don't guard me all the time."
The little girl who died for her in the past was a thorn in her heart. She will not need such a considerate maid in the future.
It turns out that there were no flowers in the garden because the emperor had a dream a few years ago. In the dream, the late Qin concubine turned into a butterfly. There were no petals to settle down, and it hovered in the sky for a long time and refused to leave. When she woke up,
Later, the emperor planted the place with colorful falling flowers and named it "Hundred Gardens".
Xu Ning smelled the fragrance of the flowers in the garden and walked slowly, as if she was in a sea of flowers. The ice orchid behind her also followed suit. She moved her mouth several times but did not speak.
"Binglan, do you think Concubine Yun's temperament is too arrogant and domineering?" Xu Ning asked with a chuckle.
"Your Highness the Crown Princess," Binglan said with a slightly sad expression, "I feel that Concubine Yun doesn't take the palace rules seriously, and I'm afraid she will annoy the Emperor sooner or later. It's better for you to have less contact with her."
"But I think she is much better than the women in the palace," Xu Ning looked up at the clear sky, a hint of envy rising in her heart, "At least her heart is clean."
