Lord Quan teases Houmen's poisonous wife
Chapter 257 Recognition
Chapter 257 Recognition (3)
"So, what is your reason and purpose for coming to see me today?" Emperor Yonglong looked at her coldly, "Do you want to take back everything that once belonged to you? My queen, eh?"
He specially emphasized the word "queen", which made Luo Lan's heart tremble.
That day outside the city, when Su Yan told her that the opportunity had come, she had hesitated, thinking that since the matter was a foregone conclusion, let the emperor treat her as dead for the rest of her life, right?At least in his memory, everything about her is beautiful.
But before she could think about it carefully, news of the old man's sudden death came from the Su family that day. When Luo Lan heard the news, Luo Lan's first reaction was that it was coming. He Lianjin's revenge was still coming, so she No more time to think about it, I went directly to the Princess Mansion to tell all the truth, determined to see the emperor.
If it is said that before the death of Old Master Su, Luo Lan still had a chance to think that she could reconcile with Emperor Yonglong in the future, then after the death of Old Master Su, all her hopes and luck would be gone. I hope there will be no more accidents in the Su family.
"I don't dare." Luo Lan lowered her head, her voice slightly lowered.
"You dare to lie to me, what else are you afraid to do?" The sarcasm in the tone should not be too obvious.
Luo Lan had tears in her eyes. If she could choose, she would definitely not have taken this path at the beginning, but at that time, the Luo family had been cornered. As Su Yan said, even if there was no such thing as the Luo family's rebellion, He contributed to the flames, and He Lianyu would definitely use Luo Shuxu to achieve his ultimate goal - to eradicate the Luo family.Therefore, instead of letting the Luo family stumble at the hands of He Lianyu and Luo Shuxu, who is always in a hurry, it is better to follow Su Yan's situation and save everyone's lives.
The Luo family was in a desperate situation. If she wanted to put her to death and come back to take revenge, she had to change her identity. In other words, she couldn't really die.
And once you fake your death, you are deceiving the king.
Every step Su Yan arranged for her was a risky move, if she had to go, she would not be able to, and if she did, she would become more and more alienated from the emperor.
But no matter what the purpose was, she had lied to him after all. This was an indisputable fact.
Emperor Yonglong looked at Luo Lan. He hadn't seen her for half a year. She had lost a lot of weight. Compared with him, she was not much better. What's more, her face was more sad and vicissitudes than before. She was protected by him for so many years that she had never seen before. She felt like a needle prick in her heart and felt unbearable pain, but she lied to him, took advantage of his feelings for her, and pretended to die like that under his nose No matter how elegantly she walks, the pain is so heartbreaking for him.
Do you forgive me?Where did these two words come from?
Do not forgive?The person who even dreamed that she could live again is now in front of him. Could it be that he is really willing to push her away thousands of miles away like this, and is really willing to let her leave him again?
Gently pinching the center of his brows, Emperor Yonglong didn't show his face, but his heart was already in entanglement and suffering.
When the emperor didn't speak, Luo Lan kept kneeling, he hurt, she hurt even more.
The two remained in a stalemate like this, and after an unknown amount of time, Emperor Yonglong finally came over again, "So you came to me because you want me to stop He Lianjin from attacking the Su family?"
Luo Lan bit her lip, "Yes."
"What about the rest? I haven't seen you for half a year, so you have nothing to say to me?"
"The concubine... the concubine deserves to die."
"You deserve to die." Emperor Yonglong's voice became cold again, "But before you die, I want to know how much place I have in your heart."
Luo Lan choked for breath.
"Either, I find a random reason to abolish the crown prince for life imprisonment, or, I make public the fact that you faked your death and take all the responsibility on yourself to be criticized by the world. Choose one of the two, what do you think?"
"Your Majesty." Luo Lan burst into tears, "You are embarrassing me as a concubine."
Emperor Yonglong's gaze became sharp, "Choose!"
Luo Lan's nails dug into her palms, and she was convulsed with pain. The emperor didn't know that the purpose of her feigning death was to make He Lianjin make such a difficult choice. It can be seen that once he knew that everything was for his son, he would not only Crash and go crazy.
Luo Lan bit the corner of her lips tightly, the emperor was obviously serious, of course she couldn't say anything at this time, otherwise if she chose to keep He Lianjin, he would definitely do even crazier things, but if she gave up He Lianjin, then all the efforts made at the beginning were in vain. Instead, going around in such a big circle not only wiped out the relationship between husband and wife, but also implicated his son in suffering.
So for Luo Lan, these two choices are extremely difficult.
Emperor Yonglong came over, bent down and stretched out his hand, and clamped her chin fiercely, "Did I pamper and indulge you too much in the past 20 years, so you dare to abuse me so unscrupulously?"
Luo Lan's lips twitched a few times, but in the end she just looked at him calmly, without saying a word.
Seeing such a new wife, Emperor Yonglong's heart ached beyond measure, "Luo Lan, where have you put my heart?"
"The concubine has been waiting for the emperor for 20 years."
"Have you lied to me for 20 years?"
Luo Lan pursed her lips, "The matter is a foregone conclusion, as long as the emperor agrees to let the Su family go, I will be at your disposal."
Emperor Yonglong's face was gloomy, "So, you chose the evil of the second child?"
Who doesn't know that He Lianjin and Su Yan are the closest, since the two people's backlash is just a misunderstanding, then there will be a day in the near future when the past will be cleared up. At that time, Su Yan will continue to support Helian as always. Jin, "To protect the Su family means to protect the prince. Well, it's very good. Today's Lan'er is an eye-opener for me."
Luo Lan finally couldn't hold back her tears, "The emperor is my concubine's husband, even if it is difficult, I am willing to bear everything with you, but Jin'er is my concubine's son, if I let my concubine abandon my son to choose Husband, such a ruthless and heartless person, she is not Luo Lan, and she is not the sweet girl that the emperor is thinking of."
Emperor Yonglong subconsciously tightened his grip on her chin, and the circles of his eyes turned red instantly, "So, you rely on me to favor you, so you are so unscrupulous? You never thought that there is a limit to my patience of?"
Luo Lan was caught by him like this, her throat slid up and down with great effort, "Thought about it."
The hot tears from the corners of her eyes fell onto the back of his hands, burning his whole heart achingly.
"The concubine is thinking, the only thing I owe my husband in this life is to pay it back in my next life."
She was hurt by his pincers, but she never even frowned. In addition to guilt, there was also the inherent stubbornness in her eyes.
This is Luo Lan, his first wife, and the empress whom he has shared the bed with for twenty years, hand in hand. However, they used to be like sisters, and they used to be in love with each other. Why can't they go back today?
Is it because he is too obsessed with not allowing a little bit of betrayal and deceit, or is she too cruel-hearted to leave him without leaving anything?
Who is wrong?
Pressing away the moisture from the corners of his eyes, Emperor Yonglong suddenly felt tired, slowly let go of her, and turned his back, "Look at your dress, you should be the servant girl next to the imperial sister, have you been staying in the princess mansion before today? "
Emperor Yonglong closed his eyes, unable to believe that even his most trusted imperial sister betrayed him.
"It's just today." Luo Lan hurriedly explained, "The eldest princess also just found out that I'm still alive."
So, the imperial sister who was originally unwilling to come to Mengshan Palace to escape the summer because of her mother's words broke her heart, changed her mind temporarily, and the purpose was to help Luo Lan meet him?
The despair on Emperor Yonglong's face was even worse, "How many things are you hiding from me?"
Apart from the fact that the Luo family is still alive, there is nothing to hide from him, but she dare not say it right now, "I have hidden many things from the emperor."
After she finished speaking, she saw Emperor Yonglong's straight back visibly stiffened.
"So, when did you start plotting against me, when you were 17?"
Luo Lan wept silently. She was 17 years old, the year she married him. The time was just right. The two people who met for the first time were not like the queen of a kingdom, but loved each other like an ordinary couple. How many pairs of eyes in the dark were red with hatred. She said: "Lan'er is 17 years old this year. When you are 27, 37...97 years old, we will spend the Spring Festival together and watch the year together. I will guard you until you live a long life."
She smiled with crooked eyebrows, "Your Majesty is the Lord of Long Live. If you live a long life as a concubine, who will you guard?"
"I don't guard anyone." He likes to hug her from behind, and he likes the feeling of her little bird cuddling in his arms, which is very warm and real, "I will only guard Lan'er in my life."
Recalling the past, Emperor Yonglong once again gathered tears in his old eyes, and laughed miserably, "I only guard one person in my life, but that person is unwilling to be guarded by me."
In fact, both of them thought about many things in the year of their wedding. When Emperor Yonglong said this again, Luo Lan, who was already uncomfortable, was heartbroken. She agreed to guard each other until the age of [-]. How could she be wrong? Willing, but forced to.
If she hadn't interfered with Concubine Li and her son He Lianyu back then, if she hadn't made up her mind to send He Lianyu to Xiao Shi, if... if she had been more ruthless in those years, then the situation would not have worsened, He Lianyu Lian Yu may have long since ceased to exist. He had no chance to find ways to target He Lianjin, and he had no chance to pull the entire Luo family behind He Lianjin to back him up. Then, even if the Luo family was no longer promising, they would still be safe, and she would There is no need to go to this step for the sake of the mother clan and for the sake of the son.
Now that the husband and wife are separated, and the love in the early years is separated, she is in more pain than anyone else.
Just now, she really wanted to tell him loudly, not to mention this life, even the next life, and the next life, she would also be willing to be guarded by him until she was a hundred years old, but she hurt him so deeply, now that she said this, he would still believe it, and Why do you believe it?
Luo Lan raised her head with tears in her eyes, and saw the back of Emperor Yonglong standing in front of him, dejected and lonely.
She wanted to speak, but she didn't know what to say, comfort?If he talked too much, he might feel that he was putting on an air, but if he didn't say anything, would he let the situation continue to be deadlocked like this?
Just as she was thinking, the princess's hearty laughter came from outside the bamboo forest, as if she was talking to someone.
Emperor Yonglong frowned, followed the prestige, and saw Princess Yiqing coming through the bamboo forest, looking at him with a faint smile, and after a while, he glanced at Luo Lan who was kneeling on the ground, walked over calmly, bent over Lift it up.
"Sister Huang, didn't you have something to do with your son-in-law, why are you here at this time?" Emperor Yonglong asked.
Eldest Princess Yiqing said with a smile, "No matter how important the event is, it can't be as lively as your place."
In other words, Miss Huang had almost guessed the situation just now. Emperor Yonglong was a little annoyed, and hummed lightly and turned to the beginning. Even if Miss Huang only found out that Luo Lan was not dead in the past two days, she shouldn't have kept it from him. When I personally went to the palace to find him, I should have given him more or less hints. I didn’t say anything at the time, but today I suddenly saw Luo Lan. It felt like everyone in the world conspired to deceive him. Same, it's not fun to think about it.
"Why, isn't the emperor happy to see me here?" Seeing the emperor's appearance, Princess Yiqing raised her eyebrows and asked.
"Don't dare." Emperor Yonglong's words clearly contained anger, but it could be heard that he was much more relaxed than before.
If you want to say who Emperor Yonglong listens to the most in this world, except Empress Dowager Xiao is the eldest princess, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that Emperor Yonglong will often talk back to Empress Dowager Xiao, but he is never willing to say something harsh to Elder Princess Yiqing. It's self-evident who he prefers, the queen mother or the emperor's sister.
"Listen, are you still angry?" Eldest Princess Yiqing smiled helplessly, sat aside, and looked at Emperor Yonglong's profile, "Tell me, how is your talk going?"
Luo Lan naturally had nothing to say.
Emperor Yonglong frowned, "Sister Huang, you don't have to meddle in these trivial matters, right?"
"A small matter?" Eldest Princess Yiqing asked back: "The woman you treasured so much that you once hid her in a golden house has come back. Are you telling me that it's just a small matter?"
"Sister Huang." Emperor Yonglong turned around and looked at her.
At first glance, he seemed to have a hard mouth, and Princess Yiqing didn't expect him to say anything, so she turned to look at Luo Lan, "Tell me, what did you talk about before?"
Emperor Yonglong didn't speak, Luo Lan dared to speak without authorization, and just shook his head slightly.
"Look at you, I did something wrong and threw all the pride of the past into the corner of the mountain." Princess Yiqing poked her forehead, and then turned to the topic, "Let me tell you, today's matter We can only calm down."
"What's the 'calm down' method?" Emperor Yonglong was clearly in a state of desperation.
Princess Yiqing sighed, "At the end of the day, it's not your fault. At the beginning, He Lianyu was sent to Xiao's hands in a flash of brains, but he turned into a hungry wolf. If he had been sent to the Queen Mother early, even if there is another Ambition, he can only be a good son with an obedient personality, and he will never dare to make any waves."
Emperor Yonglong always thought that the matter of the Luo family was what it seemed on the surface, that Luo Shuxuan was collaborating with the enemy and treason, so when he heard the eldest princess say that, he was a little confused.
Princess Yiqing gave him an analysis one by one, "As long as He Lianyu thinks about brotherhood, he will not use any means to attack the Luo family in order to deal with He Lianjin, and for Luo Lan, the enemy is coming to kill him." , Could it be that she did nothing and waited for death? So she chose to feign death when she had no other way out. Of course, this was indeed deceiving you and the king. But think about it, if she didn't feign death, Helian Yu and the Xiao family would have a lot of There is a way to make her die in the cold palace, do you want to see her live in a fake death, or do you want her to be persecuted to death?"
Emperor Yonglong stared at Luo Lan closely, with extremely complicated eyes.
Hearing it now, if he still can't react, then he has been the emperor for so many years in vain. It turned out that He Lianyu used means to frame the Luo family. Lan'er really had nothing to do in the end, so he made such a move.
No wonder Lan'er didn't say anything that night. She didn't know that the Luo family had rebelled, but she knew that the Luo family had been framed by He Lianyu. Because the other party had conclusive evidence, the Luo family was powerless to recover and waited for the palace. When she was exposed at the banquet, she had no choice but to accept her fate.
Think about the woman who has been pampered by her for 20 years and has been raised as a greenhouse peony. She still keeps calm in such an embattled situation. She didn't refute it because she didn't want him to be in a dilemma between the evidence and her, right?
Emperor Yonglong felt very uncomfortable, even in such a dangerous situation, he was the first thing she thought of, so why does he have any reason to suspect that she is not willing to be guarded by him until she is a hundred years old?
"Lan'er."
Taking two steps forward, Emperor Yonglong's voice was slightly hoarse, calling out cautiously.
Luo Lan had clearly felt the huge contrast in the attitudes of Emperor Yonglong before and after. She raised her head and looked at the person who was walking towards her step by step, with a gratified smile from the corner of her mouth. Her hard work was not in vain. He still has some old feelings in his heart, even if he can't return to the palace in the future, even if he can't be with him openly, it is enough to know his mind at this moment.
"Sorry, I made you suffer."
Regardless of the fact that the eldest princess was still at the side, Emperor Yonglong directly took Luo Lan into his arms and hugged her tightly.
Eldest Princess Yiqing coughed lightly, "Since I'm no longer needed as a peacemaker, I'll take my leave first."
At this time, Emperor Yonglong's eyes were full of guilt for his wife and the ecstasy of regaining his wife. He didn't care about the eldest princess. After the others left, he slowly let go of Luo Lan, and held her face with both hands, feeling extremely distressed, " Lan'er, why are you so stupid? If you had told me earlier, I would have done everything I could to support you!"
Luo Lan pursed her lips and smiled, "On the one hand, you are a son who has no mother since childhood, and on the other hand is a wife. I know that you have always felt guilty towards the virtuous king because of Concubine Li, so in the situation at that time, I couldn't bear to let you The emperor is in a dilemma."
"You!" Emperor Yonglong smiled and nodded her forehead, "If Miss Huang doesn't come to reconcile it today, are you going to continue to stand in such a stalemate with me, or are you going to have nothing to do with me forever?"
"How dare I be a concubine?" Luo Lan hurriedly smiled and avoided.
The treasure that was finally found, even if it was just a joke, Emperor Yonglong would never allow her to leave him even half a step, he hugged her from behind as a matter of course, buried his head in her neck, his voice was tinged with satisfaction, "Lan'er, promise me, don't do such stupid things again in the future. We are a married couple. If there is anything we can't discuss about the Luo family, if you could have given me a letter in advance, then I would There is no need to develop into this at all, perhaps, I have a way to keep them, but now..."
Hearing these heart-wrenching words, Luo Lan suddenly felt sad, turned around slowly, looked at him seriously and said: "Your Majesty, in fact, none of the Luo family is dead."
Emperor Yonglong was shocked by these words, "What!"
It's all over, Luo Lan can't keep this matter a secret, and simply confessed, "It's Su Yan, he helped my concubine to fake death, and he used tricks to extract a dead man from the prisons of various states. The prisoners came to replace all the Luo family, the concubine's parents and other natal family, they are all living well now, but they are no longer the Luo family that was once unparalleled in the Guozhang's mansion."
Fearing that Emperor Yonglong would be furious in the next moment, Luo Lan hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged, "Your Majesty, everything Su Yan did was for the concubine's sake, please forgive me and don't punish the Su family, otherwise the affairs of the Luo family will be exposed. When the time comes, I won’t be able to protect myself even as a concubine..."
This is the first time that Luo Lan has blatantly threatened Emperor Yonglong, because she owes Su Yan too much, He Lianjin's sword, the old man's life, and because of the rebellion, He Lianjin's love for all aspects of the Su family. suppression.Luo Lan saw all these in her eyes. She always thought that when she had a chance to meet the emperor one day, she must order He Lianjin to come to Su Yan's door to apologize to Su Yan. Even if the other party did not forgive, he had to go.
It has to be said that Luo Lan's threat was very successful. Emperor Yonglong was really reluctant to lose her again. He bent down to help her up, and a flash of hostility flashed in his eyes, "Su Yan? Can you make such a mess under my nose? If there are many things to do, he really has a lot of skills."
In the past, it was just vigilance and precaution, but now that I heard it, Su Yan is more than capable. Emperor Yonglong has every reason to believe that if the Helian clan makes a slight mistake in governing the government and loses the hearts of the people, then in the near future, Jiangshan in Nanliang had to change his surname to Su.
Of course, this has to be on the premise that Su Yan has ambitions.
As for whether this civil and military courtier has ambitions, Emperor Yonglong is not sure, but he has to guard against it. Maybe he can consider using Su Yan's hot filial piety as an excuse to permanently deprive him of military power. When he loses his filial piety, the big deal is Put a job in the court and arrange some errands for him.
Out of the consideration of being a king, Emperor Yonglong had to take good care of Su Yan while guarding against him.
In the eyes of Emperor Yonglong, a person like Su Yan is a double-edged sword. If he is used well, he will become an indestructible sharp blade to help you eliminate all difficulties. If he is not used well, he will become a member of the Helian family. Death Talisman.
"Your Majesty." Luo Lan was extremely nervous.
"Since it was Lan'er who pleaded in person, then this time, for the sake of his saving your life, I will make up for the past, but if there is a next time..."
"Your Majesty, rest assured, there will never be a next time." The current irreversible stalemate happened once, and Luo Lan couldn't imagine that the same thing would happen again. Would his bastard son directly set Su Su on fire? Home.
"I'm hungry, go eat with me." Emperor Yonglong gently put his arms around her shoulders.
Luo Lan's face became hot for a while, and she wanted to say that it was broad daylight, wouldn't she be afraid of being laughed at?Unexpectedly, Emperor Yonglong had no intention of avoiding suspicion at all, so he turned his arms around and took her back to the front hall directly.
In fact, along the way, I saw quite a few people, but they were all from Emperor Yonglong, and most of them were Jin Yiwei. Not to mention that in the eyes of those people, she was just a little palace lady who had once gained power, even if they recognized her as the old Empress Luo, no one dared to keep it in her heart, let alone reveal a word.
……
But one night, the fact that the little maid beside the eldest princess was favored by Emperor Yonglong is not a secret in the Mengshan Palace. Naturally, the Jin Yiwei will not care about this kind of thing, and the maids around the eldest princess are only discussing in private. It's not surprising once you get through it. Since ancient times, emperors are the most affectionate, and they can leave a dewy marriage wherever they go. If this maid is lucky, she can be taken back to make a little master of no status. Well, she is nothing more than a tool to vent her desires. Without her body, she can only wait and cry for the rest of her life.
Everyone understands that the emperor has never set foot in the harem in the first half of the year since that lady was gone, let alone favored any concubine.Maybe when I came to Mengshan Palace, I felt relieved and figured it out, so it is understandable to find someone to vent.
Luo Lan also felt that she was very lucky. As a "accompanying maid", she was "favoured" by the emperor in the palace. The luckiest thing is that this place is no better than the harem, and no one would lead a group of people with pride. Hug to her to challenge her to claim the sovereignty, because there are only three masters, and the rest are servants. Needless to say, Yonglong Emperor's maidservant is more educated, and she looks like she has been specially trained in her actions and words. Yes, of course I won't lose the face of the eldest princess and gossip to make people look down upon me. The more noisy ones should be the nuns in front of the empress dowager.
At best, they are loyal and lordly, and they have to report all matters big and small. At worst, they are just a few gossip women who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic. To describe the hype.
"The emperor hasn't stepped into the harem for half a year. Why did he favor the maidservant next to the eldest princess when he came to the palace? It can be seen that the maidservant must have used some kind of seductive sorcery."
"I heard that both before and yesterday, the emperor left her to spend the night in the palace. Doesn't the empress dowager plan to take care of it? If those people in the palace know about it, it will be a catastrophe."
"The old slave also heard that this maid was specially dedicated to the emperor by the eldest princess. Is there any intention here..."
"A bunch of brainless old bastards, get out!" The queen mother was furious, she picked up the things on the table and threw them at them. Fortunately, the nuns were smart and escaped as soon as possible to survive, but they didn't dare to talk nonsense. Just one word.
The Empress Dowager had a gloomy face. Originally, as the emperor, it was no surprise that her son favored someone. The servants shouldn't bring it up in front of her. Don't make people laugh their teeth out, and the old face doesn't panic with embarrassment?It's just that she also faintly became curious when she heard the nuns chewing like this.
If you want to say where there are the most beauties, it is naturally the emperor's harem. Those who are not beautiful are really not qualified to enter. The harem is full of flowers, and there are all kinds of beauties. Many of them have never even met the emperor, let alone favored him.
The emperor was heartbroken because of Luo Lan's death half a year ago, and since then he has never stepped into the harem again. For this reason, Empress Dowager Xiao also talked about him a few times, but later found out that everything was the same, so she No more trouble, just let him.
It's understandable if you don't touch a woman for half a year, and you have a lot of lust, but the queen mother can't figure it out, why doesn't the emperor go to those beautiful beauties in the harem, but go to a place far away from Beijing like the palace, okay, say It is understandable if it is a matter of taste, but why can't you bring someone who is worthy of the stage from the palace, but a little maid instead?Could it be that this maid really played tricks on the emperor?
The more Empress Dowager Xiao thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, and she planned to send someone to beat the maid quietly.
Before she could speak, Eldest Princess Yiqing came, with a smile on her face and a smile on her face, "I have been here in the palace for two days, how does the queen mother think?"
Empress Dowager Xiao went forward to take a sip of tea, "Compared to previous years, it is naturally much quieter." Thinking of the day when her daughter was so angry, she put away the shelf quietly, and even her tone was much softer, "It is appropriate Qing, I heard that the emperor favored the accompanying maid you brought, is there such a thing?"
Eldest Princess Yiqing smiled indifferently, "Isn't this a life-hungry person who came to my mother's feet and chewed his tongue?"
The queen mother said: "You just said, is there such a thing?"
Eldest Princess Yiqing raised her eyebrows, "When the emperor was not in the harem, the queen mother was in a hurry to get angry and wanted to take care of it. Now the emperor has figured it out and began to favor women. The queen mother is also in a hurry to get angry, so she still wants to take care of it. Why, just Don't plan to give your son a way out?"
The queen mother choked on the tea immediately, "Yiqing!"
For the empress dowager's perverted desire to control, Princess Yiqing is quite disgusted, "Besides, the empress mother is the emperor's biological mother, you can discipline him anything, but I'm afraid this kind of thing is a little inappropriate, otherwise it will not be allowed to spread. People make up what is right and wrong, maybe, some people will think that you are abnormal because of the queen mother."
The word "abnormal" made the Empress Dowager Xiao's complexion change a lot. She was extremely ugly. She couldn't remember exactly when this daughter always spoke with so many thorns every time she met her. , You have to tie her up in order to be reconciled.
However, abnormal?She just didn't want those wicked women to get close to her son. Why is this abnormal?
"Emperor, the 72nd concubine of the Sixth Court of the Sangong, who hasn't been like this since ancient times, the queen mother didn't want the emperor to become a queen as soon as possible, and now it's hard to hope that he will be interested in women other than Luo Lan again, are you thinking about it again?" Hit to death with a stick, my poor little brother, he has become a man inside and out, it is difficult to be a son, and it is even more difficult to be your son."
Eldest Princess Yiqing didn't even look at Empress Dowager Xiao's expression, and said to herself.
It has not been long since the last time the Empress Dowager got angry. As a daughter, she shouldn't have come to fuel the fire at this time, but the emperor and Luo Lan finally met again. Although Princess Yiqing was not very happy with Luo Lan's behavior of deceiving the emperor, I admit it, but I don't want to mess up such a good thing by beating the mandarin duck again because of my old mother.
Even if Luo Lan can no longer return to the palace, there is nothing wrong with letting her relive the old relationship with the emperor for a few days. At least knowing that Luo Lan is not dead, the emperor's heart disease can be completely cured. No matter what, I won't be heartbroken because of this matter again.
"Yiqing, Aijia speaks to you well, why do you have to be thorny in every sentence?" The queen mother clutched her chest, panicked, "Yes, Aijia shouldn't have said that about you last time, but no one is a sage. Besides, Aijia also lowered his figure to apologize to you afterwards, what else do you want? Are you going to hold on to it all the time?"
Eldest Princess Yiqing personally poured tea for her, "Look at what the empress mother said, what kind of person do you think I am, can she be an unfilial daughter who cares about every detail with her biological mother? As for the emperor's favored maidservants next to Erchen, Erchen just discusses things as they are. Other things have nothing to do, mother, don't easily speculate on other people's thoughts."
The empress dowager had a mouthful of old blood choked in her throat, "The Ai family can see clearly that when it comes to the emperor's affairs, Yiqing always favors the emperor for no reason."
"I'm a helper and not a relative." Eldest Princess Yiqing said: "The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh. While giving birth to the mother, the younger brother is at the same time. It's very difficult for the son to be sandwiched between your mother and child. If you want to help the mother, don't you?" The Emperor Renxin is alone, thinking of helping the Emperor, this minister is unfilial again, simply, the minister will stand on whichever side is right."
"You said Aijia was wrong?"
Eldest Princess Yiqing is definitely the first person who dared to challenge the authority of the Empress Dowager so unscrupulously. Even Emperor Yonglong didn't have the guts for her. Where did Aijia go wrong?"
Eldest Princess Yiqing took a deep breath, "Why does the queen mother always struggle with this kind of problem? The imperial doctor has ordered you not to worry too much. The emperor didn't do something ridiculous, so you can't let him go." Do you want to live a few more years according to your own wishes?"
Eldest Princess Yiqing felt that she was at the level of an old lady, and she had endless worries all day long. She never thought that her own old lady was worse. She even suspected that if things continued like this, in the future, even what the emperor would wear inside and out would be of great concern to her. The old lady has to give pointers in person.
I have never seen a person with such a perverted desire to control, and being controlled by such a perverted mother, it is considered lucky to live an extra year.
The queen mother's chest rose and fell, and she was panting non-stop.
Eldest Princess Yiqing was not in a hurry to leave, and gently patted her back, "I have already asked the emperor, he will not take the maid back, at most, he will be pampered here in the palace for a few days, as long as the news If it is not passed back to the capital, who will know?"
These words finally sounded more comfortable, the Queen Mother snorted softly, "He is quite sensible, otherwise, if you really want to bring back a lowly maidservant, the women in the harem will have to team up and tear her apart."
Isn't that what you're talking about?Princess Yiqing complained that Luo Lan's identity could not be exposed, so if Emperor Yonglong wanted to take her back, she would have to continue to be a "handmaid".
The emperor, who had not favored his concubines for half a year, suddenly favored a lowly servant girl whose status was so much lower than theirs. How could those women be calm? No need to think about it, each of them would sharpen their fangs and wait for Luo Lan to send them to the door. She tore it off piece by piece and ate it alive.
And Emperor Yonglong also thought so, holding the woman in his arms, and said in a guilty tone, "Lan'er, I can't take you back to the palace."
"The concubine knows." She never thought of following him back to the palace.
"However, I will definitely think of a way to get the best of both worlds." His eyes were firm, "At that time, we won't need to sneak around."
Luo Lan covered her mouth and laughed lightly. It might be rare to say that couples who have paid homage to each other and made friends secretly have trysts like them, but thinking about it, it's still quite fresh and exciting.
"Are you still laughing?" Emperor Yonglong looked at her, "I won't be able to see each other for a long time after I go back, isn't it funny?"
Luo Lan blinked, and said slyly: "Then it seems that the emperor doesn't want to be a concubine anymore. Otherwise, if you want to see me, it's very simple. Doesn't Yugan Palace have an emergency tunnel leading to the outside of the palace?"
After her reminder, Emperor Yonglong's eyes lit up instantly, "Yes, why didn't I expect that there is a fork in that tunnel, and one of them leads to the Princess Mansion, Lan'er, why don't you just stay in the Princess Mansion from now on?" Well, I will be diligent during the day, but at night..."
Luo Lan was so ashamed and angry that she pushed him, "I didn't mean that, I just thought that if the emperor had something important to do, he would come out along the tunnel to find me, or I would just go find you, why do you..."
Emperor Yonglong looked at her with a smile, "What?"
Luo Lan hurriedly turned to the beginning, "How old are you, and you're not ashamed yet, if the queen mother finds out, the emperor will definitely suffer again."
Emperor Yonglong didn't care, "At the queen mother's place, there is an imperial sister who will stand up for it. Be good, listen to me, and stay in the princess mansion and wait for me."
Luo Lan thought for a while, her identity was sensitive, and she was in danger of being exposed anytime when she went out, if she stayed in the Princess Mansion, Princess Yiqing would be able to keep her safe, she nodded, "Okay."
-
Emperor Yonglong had a good understanding of his wicked son, knowing that if others did not come, he would quietly send spies to follow him to the palace, so he intentionally or unintentionally revealed the matter of Luo Lan to He Lianjin, the two hiding in the dark. The spies know.
When Bai Qi and Bai Shu got the shocking news, they naturally went back to Beijing to report the news non-stop.
East Palace.
"Your Highness, the court lady favored by the Emperor in Mengshan Palace is none other than your biological mother, our empress."
He Lianjin threw away the pen and stood up abruptly, "What did you say!"
(End of this chapter)
"So, what is your reason and purpose for coming to see me today?" Emperor Yonglong looked at her coldly, "Do you want to take back everything that once belonged to you? My queen, eh?"
He specially emphasized the word "queen", which made Luo Lan's heart tremble.
That day outside the city, when Su Yan told her that the opportunity had come, she had hesitated, thinking that since the matter was a foregone conclusion, let the emperor treat her as dead for the rest of her life, right?At least in his memory, everything about her is beautiful.
But before she could think about it carefully, news of the old man's sudden death came from the Su family that day. When Luo Lan heard the news, Luo Lan's first reaction was that it was coming. He Lianjin's revenge was still coming, so she No more time to think about it, I went directly to the Princess Mansion to tell all the truth, determined to see the emperor.
If it is said that before the death of Old Master Su, Luo Lan still had a chance to think that she could reconcile with Emperor Yonglong in the future, then after the death of Old Master Su, all her hopes and luck would be gone. I hope there will be no more accidents in the Su family.
"I don't dare." Luo Lan lowered her head, her voice slightly lowered.
"You dare to lie to me, what else are you afraid to do?" The sarcasm in the tone should not be too obvious.
Luo Lan had tears in her eyes. If she could choose, she would definitely not have taken this path at the beginning, but at that time, the Luo family had been cornered. As Su Yan said, even if there was no such thing as the Luo family's rebellion, He contributed to the flames, and He Lianyu would definitely use Luo Shuxu to achieve his ultimate goal - to eradicate the Luo family.Therefore, instead of letting the Luo family stumble at the hands of He Lianyu and Luo Shuxu, who is always in a hurry, it is better to follow Su Yan's situation and save everyone's lives.
The Luo family was in a desperate situation. If she wanted to put her to death and come back to take revenge, she had to change her identity. In other words, she couldn't really die.
And once you fake your death, you are deceiving the king.
Every step Su Yan arranged for her was a risky move, if she had to go, she would not be able to, and if she did, she would become more and more alienated from the emperor.
But no matter what the purpose was, she had lied to him after all. This was an indisputable fact.
Emperor Yonglong looked at Luo Lan. He hadn't seen her for half a year. She had lost a lot of weight. Compared with him, she was not much better. What's more, her face was more sad and vicissitudes than before. She was protected by him for so many years that she had never seen before. She felt like a needle prick in her heart and felt unbearable pain, but she lied to him, took advantage of his feelings for her, and pretended to die like that under his nose No matter how elegantly she walks, the pain is so heartbreaking for him.
Do you forgive me?Where did these two words come from?
Do not forgive?The person who even dreamed that she could live again is now in front of him. Could it be that he is really willing to push her away thousands of miles away like this, and is really willing to let her leave him again?
Gently pinching the center of his brows, Emperor Yonglong didn't show his face, but his heart was already in entanglement and suffering.
When the emperor didn't speak, Luo Lan kept kneeling, he hurt, she hurt even more.
The two remained in a stalemate like this, and after an unknown amount of time, Emperor Yonglong finally came over again, "So you came to me because you want me to stop He Lianjin from attacking the Su family?"
Luo Lan bit her lip, "Yes."
"What about the rest? I haven't seen you for half a year, so you have nothing to say to me?"
"The concubine... the concubine deserves to die."
"You deserve to die." Emperor Yonglong's voice became cold again, "But before you die, I want to know how much place I have in your heart."
Luo Lan choked for breath.
"Either, I find a random reason to abolish the crown prince for life imprisonment, or, I make public the fact that you faked your death and take all the responsibility on yourself to be criticized by the world. Choose one of the two, what do you think?"
"Your Majesty." Luo Lan burst into tears, "You are embarrassing me as a concubine."
Emperor Yonglong's gaze became sharp, "Choose!"
Luo Lan's nails dug into her palms, and she was convulsed with pain. The emperor didn't know that the purpose of her feigning death was to make He Lianjin make such a difficult choice. It can be seen that once he knew that everything was for his son, he would not only Crash and go crazy.
Luo Lan bit the corner of her lips tightly, the emperor was obviously serious, of course she couldn't say anything at this time, otherwise if she chose to keep He Lianjin, he would definitely do even crazier things, but if she gave up He Lianjin, then all the efforts made at the beginning were in vain. Instead, going around in such a big circle not only wiped out the relationship between husband and wife, but also implicated his son in suffering.
So for Luo Lan, these two choices are extremely difficult.
Emperor Yonglong came over, bent down and stretched out his hand, and clamped her chin fiercely, "Did I pamper and indulge you too much in the past 20 years, so you dare to abuse me so unscrupulously?"
Luo Lan's lips twitched a few times, but in the end she just looked at him calmly, without saying a word.
Seeing such a new wife, Emperor Yonglong's heart ached beyond measure, "Luo Lan, where have you put my heart?"
"The concubine has been waiting for the emperor for 20 years."
"Have you lied to me for 20 years?"
Luo Lan pursed her lips, "The matter is a foregone conclusion, as long as the emperor agrees to let the Su family go, I will be at your disposal."
Emperor Yonglong's face was gloomy, "So, you chose the evil of the second child?"
Who doesn't know that He Lianjin and Su Yan are the closest, since the two people's backlash is just a misunderstanding, then there will be a day in the near future when the past will be cleared up. At that time, Su Yan will continue to support Helian as always. Jin, "To protect the Su family means to protect the prince. Well, it's very good. Today's Lan'er is an eye-opener for me."
Luo Lan finally couldn't hold back her tears, "The emperor is my concubine's husband, even if it is difficult, I am willing to bear everything with you, but Jin'er is my concubine's son, if I let my concubine abandon my son to choose Husband, such a ruthless and heartless person, she is not Luo Lan, and she is not the sweet girl that the emperor is thinking of."
Emperor Yonglong subconsciously tightened his grip on her chin, and the circles of his eyes turned red instantly, "So, you rely on me to favor you, so you are so unscrupulous? You never thought that there is a limit to my patience of?"
Luo Lan was caught by him like this, her throat slid up and down with great effort, "Thought about it."
The hot tears from the corners of her eyes fell onto the back of his hands, burning his whole heart achingly.
"The concubine is thinking, the only thing I owe my husband in this life is to pay it back in my next life."
She was hurt by his pincers, but she never even frowned. In addition to guilt, there was also the inherent stubbornness in her eyes.
This is Luo Lan, his first wife, and the empress whom he has shared the bed with for twenty years, hand in hand. However, they used to be like sisters, and they used to be in love with each other. Why can't they go back today?
Is it because he is too obsessed with not allowing a little bit of betrayal and deceit, or is she too cruel-hearted to leave him without leaving anything?
Who is wrong?
Pressing away the moisture from the corners of his eyes, Emperor Yonglong suddenly felt tired, slowly let go of her, and turned his back, "Look at your dress, you should be the servant girl next to the imperial sister, have you been staying in the princess mansion before today? "
Emperor Yonglong closed his eyes, unable to believe that even his most trusted imperial sister betrayed him.
"It's just today." Luo Lan hurriedly explained, "The eldest princess also just found out that I'm still alive."
So, the imperial sister who was originally unwilling to come to Mengshan Palace to escape the summer because of her mother's words broke her heart, changed her mind temporarily, and the purpose was to help Luo Lan meet him?
The despair on Emperor Yonglong's face was even worse, "How many things are you hiding from me?"
Apart from the fact that the Luo family is still alive, there is nothing to hide from him, but she dare not say it right now, "I have hidden many things from the emperor."
After she finished speaking, she saw Emperor Yonglong's straight back visibly stiffened.
"So, when did you start plotting against me, when you were 17?"
Luo Lan wept silently. She was 17 years old, the year she married him. The time was just right. The two people who met for the first time were not like the queen of a kingdom, but loved each other like an ordinary couple. How many pairs of eyes in the dark were red with hatred. She said: "Lan'er is 17 years old this year. When you are 27, 37...97 years old, we will spend the Spring Festival together and watch the year together. I will guard you until you live a long life."
She smiled with crooked eyebrows, "Your Majesty is the Lord of Long Live. If you live a long life as a concubine, who will you guard?"
"I don't guard anyone." He likes to hug her from behind, and he likes the feeling of her little bird cuddling in his arms, which is very warm and real, "I will only guard Lan'er in my life."
Recalling the past, Emperor Yonglong once again gathered tears in his old eyes, and laughed miserably, "I only guard one person in my life, but that person is unwilling to be guarded by me."
In fact, both of them thought about many things in the year of their wedding. When Emperor Yonglong said this again, Luo Lan, who was already uncomfortable, was heartbroken. She agreed to guard each other until the age of [-]. How could she be wrong? Willing, but forced to.
If she hadn't interfered with Concubine Li and her son He Lianyu back then, if she hadn't made up her mind to send He Lianyu to Xiao Shi, if... if she had been more ruthless in those years, then the situation would not have worsened, He Lianyu Lian Yu may have long since ceased to exist. He had no chance to find ways to target He Lianjin, and he had no chance to pull the entire Luo family behind He Lianjin to back him up. Then, even if the Luo family was no longer promising, they would still be safe, and she would There is no need to go to this step for the sake of the mother clan and for the sake of the son.
Now that the husband and wife are separated, and the love in the early years is separated, she is in more pain than anyone else.
Just now, she really wanted to tell him loudly, not to mention this life, even the next life, and the next life, she would also be willing to be guarded by him until she was a hundred years old, but she hurt him so deeply, now that she said this, he would still believe it, and Why do you believe it?
Luo Lan raised her head with tears in her eyes, and saw the back of Emperor Yonglong standing in front of him, dejected and lonely.
She wanted to speak, but she didn't know what to say, comfort?If he talked too much, he might feel that he was putting on an air, but if he didn't say anything, would he let the situation continue to be deadlocked like this?
Just as she was thinking, the princess's hearty laughter came from outside the bamboo forest, as if she was talking to someone.
Emperor Yonglong frowned, followed the prestige, and saw Princess Yiqing coming through the bamboo forest, looking at him with a faint smile, and after a while, he glanced at Luo Lan who was kneeling on the ground, walked over calmly, bent over Lift it up.
"Sister Huang, didn't you have something to do with your son-in-law, why are you here at this time?" Emperor Yonglong asked.
Eldest Princess Yiqing said with a smile, "No matter how important the event is, it can't be as lively as your place."
In other words, Miss Huang had almost guessed the situation just now. Emperor Yonglong was a little annoyed, and hummed lightly and turned to the beginning. Even if Miss Huang only found out that Luo Lan was not dead in the past two days, she shouldn't have kept it from him. When I personally went to the palace to find him, I should have given him more or less hints. I didn’t say anything at the time, but today I suddenly saw Luo Lan. It felt like everyone in the world conspired to deceive him. Same, it's not fun to think about it.
"Why, isn't the emperor happy to see me here?" Seeing the emperor's appearance, Princess Yiqing raised her eyebrows and asked.
"Don't dare." Emperor Yonglong's words clearly contained anger, but it could be heard that he was much more relaxed than before.
If you want to say who Emperor Yonglong listens to the most in this world, except Empress Dowager Xiao is the eldest princess, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that Emperor Yonglong will often talk back to Empress Dowager Xiao, but he is never willing to say something harsh to Elder Princess Yiqing. It's self-evident who he prefers, the queen mother or the emperor's sister.
"Listen, are you still angry?" Eldest Princess Yiqing smiled helplessly, sat aside, and looked at Emperor Yonglong's profile, "Tell me, how is your talk going?"
Luo Lan naturally had nothing to say.
Emperor Yonglong frowned, "Sister Huang, you don't have to meddle in these trivial matters, right?"
"A small matter?" Eldest Princess Yiqing asked back: "The woman you treasured so much that you once hid her in a golden house has come back. Are you telling me that it's just a small matter?"
"Sister Huang." Emperor Yonglong turned around and looked at her.
At first glance, he seemed to have a hard mouth, and Princess Yiqing didn't expect him to say anything, so she turned to look at Luo Lan, "Tell me, what did you talk about before?"
Emperor Yonglong didn't speak, Luo Lan dared to speak without authorization, and just shook his head slightly.
"Look at you, I did something wrong and threw all the pride of the past into the corner of the mountain." Princess Yiqing poked her forehead, and then turned to the topic, "Let me tell you, today's matter We can only calm down."
"What's the 'calm down' method?" Emperor Yonglong was clearly in a state of desperation.
Princess Yiqing sighed, "At the end of the day, it's not your fault. At the beginning, He Lianyu was sent to Xiao's hands in a flash of brains, but he turned into a hungry wolf. If he had been sent to the Queen Mother early, even if there is another Ambition, he can only be a good son with an obedient personality, and he will never dare to make any waves."
Emperor Yonglong always thought that the matter of the Luo family was what it seemed on the surface, that Luo Shuxuan was collaborating with the enemy and treason, so when he heard the eldest princess say that, he was a little confused.
Princess Yiqing gave him an analysis one by one, "As long as He Lianyu thinks about brotherhood, he will not use any means to attack the Luo family in order to deal with He Lianjin, and for Luo Lan, the enemy is coming to kill him." , Could it be that she did nothing and waited for death? So she chose to feign death when she had no other way out. Of course, this was indeed deceiving you and the king. But think about it, if she didn't feign death, Helian Yu and the Xiao family would have a lot of There is a way to make her die in the cold palace, do you want to see her live in a fake death, or do you want her to be persecuted to death?"
Emperor Yonglong stared at Luo Lan closely, with extremely complicated eyes.
Hearing it now, if he still can't react, then he has been the emperor for so many years in vain. It turned out that He Lianyu used means to frame the Luo family. Lan'er really had nothing to do in the end, so he made such a move.
No wonder Lan'er didn't say anything that night. She didn't know that the Luo family had rebelled, but she knew that the Luo family had been framed by He Lianyu. Because the other party had conclusive evidence, the Luo family was powerless to recover and waited for the palace. When she was exposed at the banquet, she had no choice but to accept her fate.
Think about the woman who has been pampered by her for 20 years and has been raised as a greenhouse peony. She still keeps calm in such an embattled situation. She didn't refute it because she didn't want him to be in a dilemma between the evidence and her, right?
Emperor Yonglong felt very uncomfortable, even in such a dangerous situation, he was the first thing she thought of, so why does he have any reason to suspect that she is not willing to be guarded by him until she is a hundred years old?
"Lan'er."
Taking two steps forward, Emperor Yonglong's voice was slightly hoarse, calling out cautiously.
Luo Lan had clearly felt the huge contrast in the attitudes of Emperor Yonglong before and after. She raised her head and looked at the person who was walking towards her step by step, with a gratified smile from the corner of her mouth. Her hard work was not in vain. He still has some old feelings in his heart, even if he can't return to the palace in the future, even if he can't be with him openly, it is enough to know his mind at this moment.
"Sorry, I made you suffer."
Regardless of the fact that the eldest princess was still at the side, Emperor Yonglong directly took Luo Lan into his arms and hugged her tightly.
Eldest Princess Yiqing coughed lightly, "Since I'm no longer needed as a peacemaker, I'll take my leave first."
At this time, Emperor Yonglong's eyes were full of guilt for his wife and the ecstasy of regaining his wife. He didn't care about the eldest princess. After the others left, he slowly let go of Luo Lan, and held her face with both hands, feeling extremely distressed, " Lan'er, why are you so stupid? If you had told me earlier, I would have done everything I could to support you!"
Luo Lan pursed her lips and smiled, "On the one hand, you are a son who has no mother since childhood, and on the other hand is a wife. I know that you have always felt guilty towards the virtuous king because of Concubine Li, so in the situation at that time, I couldn't bear to let you The emperor is in a dilemma."
"You!" Emperor Yonglong smiled and nodded her forehead, "If Miss Huang doesn't come to reconcile it today, are you going to continue to stand in such a stalemate with me, or are you going to have nothing to do with me forever?"
"How dare I be a concubine?" Luo Lan hurriedly smiled and avoided.
The treasure that was finally found, even if it was just a joke, Emperor Yonglong would never allow her to leave him even half a step, he hugged her from behind as a matter of course, buried his head in her neck, his voice was tinged with satisfaction, "Lan'er, promise me, don't do such stupid things again in the future. We are a married couple. If there is anything we can't discuss about the Luo family, if you could have given me a letter in advance, then I would There is no need to develop into this at all, perhaps, I have a way to keep them, but now..."
Hearing these heart-wrenching words, Luo Lan suddenly felt sad, turned around slowly, looked at him seriously and said: "Your Majesty, in fact, none of the Luo family is dead."
Emperor Yonglong was shocked by these words, "What!"
It's all over, Luo Lan can't keep this matter a secret, and simply confessed, "It's Su Yan, he helped my concubine to fake death, and he used tricks to extract a dead man from the prisons of various states. The prisoners came to replace all the Luo family, the concubine's parents and other natal family, they are all living well now, but they are no longer the Luo family that was once unparalleled in the Guozhang's mansion."
Fearing that Emperor Yonglong would be furious in the next moment, Luo Lan hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged, "Your Majesty, everything Su Yan did was for the concubine's sake, please forgive me and don't punish the Su family, otherwise the affairs of the Luo family will be exposed. When the time comes, I won’t be able to protect myself even as a concubine..."
This is the first time that Luo Lan has blatantly threatened Emperor Yonglong, because she owes Su Yan too much, He Lianjin's sword, the old man's life, and because of the rebellion, He Lianjin's love for all aspects of the Su family. suppression.Luo Lan saw all these in her eyes. She always thought that when she had a chance to meet the emperor one day, she must order He Lianjin to come to Su Yan's door to apologize to Su Yan. Even if the other party did not forgive, he had to go.
It has to be said that Luo Lan's threat was very successful. Emperor Yonglong was really reluctant to lose her again. He bent down to help her up, and a flash of hostility flashed in his eyes, "Su Yan? Can you make such a mess under my nose? If there are many things to do, he really has a lot of skills."
In the past, it was just vigilance and precaution, but now that I heard it, Su Yan is more than capable. Emperor Yonglong has every reason to believe that if the Helian clan makes a slight mistake in governing the government and loses the hearts of the people, then in the near future, Jiangshan in Nanliang had to change his surname to Su.
Of course, this has to be on the premise that Su Yan has ambitions.
As for whether this civil and military courtier has ambitions, Emperor Yonglong is not sure, but he has to guard against it. Maybe he can consider using Su Yan's hot filial piety as an excuse to permanently deprive him of military power. When he loses his filial piety, the big deal is Put a job in the court and arrange some errands for him.
Out of the consideration of being a king, Emperor Yonglong had to take good care of Su Yan while guarding against him.
In the eyes of Emperor Yonglong, a person like Su Yan is a double-edged sword. If he is used well, he will become an indestructible sharp blade to help you eliminate all difficulties. If he is not used well, he will become a member of the Helian family. Death Talisman.
"Your Majesty." Luo Lan was extremely nervous.
"Since it was Lan'er who pleaded in person, then this time, for the sake of his saving your life, I will make up for the past, but if there is a next time..."
"Your Majesty, rest assured, there will never be a next time." The current irreversible stalemate happened once, and Luo Lan couldn't imagine that the same thing would happen again. Would his bastard son directly set Su Su on fire? Home.
"I'm hungry, go eat with me." Emperor Yonglong gently put his arms around her shoulders.
Luo Lan's face became hot for a while, and she wanted to say that it was broad daylight, wouldn't she be afraid of being laughed at?Unexpectedly, Emperor Yonglong had no intention of avoiding suspicion at all, so he turned his arms around and took her back to the front hall directly.
In fact, along the way, I saw quite a few people, but they were all from Emperor Yonglong, and most of them were Jin Yiwei. Not to mention that in the eyes of those people, she was just a little palace lady who had once gained power, even if they recognized her as the old Empress Luo, no one dared to keep it in her heart, let alone reveal a word.
……
But one night, the fact that the little maid beside the eldest princess was favored by Emperor Yonglong is not a secret in the Mengshan Palace. Naturally, the Jin Yiwei will not care about this kind of thing, and the maids around the eldest princess are only discussing in private. It's not surprising once you get through it. Since ancient times, emperors are the most affectionate, and they can leave a dewy marriage wherever they go. If this maid is lucky, she can be taken back to make a little master of no status. Well, she is nothing more than a tool to vent her desires. Without her body, she can only wait and cry for the rest of her life.
Everyone understands that the emperor has never set foot in the harem in the first half of the year since that lady was gone, let alone favored any concubine.Maybe when I came to Mengshan Palace, I felt relieved and figured it out, so it is understandable to find someone to vent.
Luo Lan also felt that she was very lucky. As a "accompanying maid", she was "favoured" by the emperor in the palace. The luckiest thing is that this place is no better than the harem, and no one would lead a group of people with pride. Hug to her to challenge her to claim the sovereignty, because there are only three masters, and the rest are servants. Needless to say, Yonglong Emperor's maidservant is more educated, and she looks like she has been specially trained in her actions and words. Yes, of course I won't lose the face of the eldest princess and gossip to make people look down upon me. The more noisy ones should be the nuns in front of the empress dowager.
At best, they are loyal and lordly, and they have to report all matters big and small. At worst, they are just a few gossip women who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic. To describe the hype.
"The emperor hasn't stepped into the harem for half a year. Why did he favor the maidservant next to the eldest princess when he came to the palace? It can be seen that the maidservant must have used some kind of seductive sorcery."
"I heard that both before and yesterday, the emperor left her to spend the night in the palace. Doesn't the empress dowager plan to take care of it? If those people in the palace know about it, it will be a catastrophe."
"The old slave also heard that this maid was specially dedicated to the emperor by the eldest princess. Is there any intention here..."
"A bunch of brainless old bastards, get out!" The queen mother was furious, she picked up the things on the table and threw them at them. Fortunately, the nuns were smart and escaped as soon as possible to survive, but they didn't dare to talk nonsense. Just one word.
The Empress Dowager had a gloomy face. Originally, as the emperor, it was no surprise that her son favored someone. The servants shouldn't bring it up in front of her. Don't make people laugh their teeth out, and the old face doesn't panic with embarrassment?It's just that she also faintly became curious when she heard the nuns chewing like this.
If you want to say where there are the most beauties, it is naturally the emperor's harem. Those who are not beautiful are really not qualified to enter. The harem is full of flowers, and there are all kinds of beauties. Many of them have never even met the emperor, let alone favored him.
The emperor was heartbroken because of Luo Lan's death half a year ago, and since then he has never stepped into the harem again. For this reason, Empress Dowager Xiao also talked about him a few times, but later found out that everything was the same, so she No more trouble, just let him.
It's understandable if you don't touch a woman for half a year, and you have a lot of lust, but the queen mother can't figure it out, why doesn't the emperor go to those beautiful beauties in the harem, but go to a place far away from Beijing like the palace, okay, say It is understandable if it is a matter of taste, but why can't you bring someone who is worthy of the stage from the palace, but a little maid instead?Could it be that this maid really played tricks on the emperor?
The more Empress Dowager Xiao thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, and she planned to send someone to beat the maid quietly.
Before she could speak, Eldest Princess Yiqing came, with a smile on her face and a smile on her face, "I have been here in the palace for two days, how does the queen mother think?"
Empress Dowager Xiao went forward to take a sip of tea, "Compared to previous years, it is naturally much quieter." Thinking of the day when her daughter was so angry, she put away the shelf quietly, and even her tone was much softer, "It is appropriate Qing, I heard that the emperor favored the accompanying maid you brought, is there such a thing?"
Eldest Princess Yiqing smiled indifferently, "Isn't this a life-hungry person who came to my mother's feet and chewed his tongue?"
The queen mother said: "You just said, is there such a thing?"
Eldest Princess Yiqing raised her eyebrows, "When the emperor was not in the harem, the queen mother was in a hurry to get angry and wanted to take care of it. Now the emperor has figured it out and began to favor women. The queen mother is also in a hurry to get angry, so she still wants to take care of it. Why, just Don't plan to give your son a way out?"
The queen mother choked on the tea immediately, "Yiqing!"
For the empress dowager's perverted desire to control, Princess Yiqing is quite disgusted, "Besides, the empress mother is the emperor's biological mother, you can discipline him anything, but I'm afraid this kind of thing is a little inappropriate, otherwise it will not be allowed to spread. People make up what is right and wrong, maybe, some people will think that you are abnormal because of the queen mother."
The word "abnormal" made the Empress Dowager Xiao's complexion change a lot. She was extremely ugly. She couldn't remember exactly when this daughter always spoke with so many thorns every time she met her. , You have to tie her up in order to be reconciled.
However, abnormal?She just didn't want those wicked women to get close to her son. Why is this abnormal?
"Emperor, the 72nd concubine of the Sixth Court of the Sangong, who hasn't been like this since ancient times, the queen mother didn't want the emperor to become a queen as soon as possible, and now it's hard to hope that he will be interested in women other than Luo Lan again, are you thinking about it again?" Hit to death with a stick, my poor little brother, he has become a man inside and out, it is difficult to be a son, and it is even more difficult to be your son."
Eldest Princess Yiqing didn't even look at Empress Dowager Xiao's expression, and said to herself.
It has not been long since the last time the Empress Dowager got angry. As a daughter, she shouldn't have come to fuel the fire at this time, but the emperor and Luo Lan finally met again. Although Princess Yiqing was not very happy with Luo Lan's behavior of deceiving the emperor, I admit it, but I don't want to mess up such a good thing by beating the mandarin duck again because of my old mother.
Even if Luo Lan can no longer return to the palace, there is nothing wrong with letting her relive the old relationship with the emperor for a few days. At least knowing that Luo Lan is not dead, the emperor's heart disease can be completely cured. No matter what, I won't be heartbroken because of this matter again.
"Yiqing, Aijia speaks to you well, why do you have to be thorny in every sentence?" The queen mother clutched her chest, panicked, "Yes, Aijia shouldn't have said that about you last time, but no one is a sage. Besides, Aijia also lowered his figure to apologize to you afterwards, what else do you want? Are you going to hold on to it all the time?"
Eldest Princess Yiqing personally poured tea for her, "Look at what the empress mother said, what kind of person do you think I am, can she be an unfilial daughter who cares about every detail with her biological mother? As for the emperor's favored maidservants next to Erchen, Erchen just discusses things as they are. Other things have nothing to do, mother, don't easily speculate on other people's thoughts."
The empress dowager had a mouthful of old blood choked in her throat, "The Ai family can see clearly that when it comes to the emperor's affairs, Yiqing always favors the emperor for no reason."
"I'm a helper and not a relative." Eldest Princess Yiqing said: "The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh. While giving birth to the mother, the younger brother is at the same time. It's very difficult for the son to be sandwiched between your mother and child. If you want to help the mother, don't you?" The Emperor Renxin is alone, thinking of helping the Emperor, this minister is unfilial again, simply, the minister will stand on whichever side is right."
"You said Aijia was wrong?"
Eldest Princess Yiqing is definitely the first person who dared to challenge the authority of the Empress Dowager so unscrupulously. Even Emperor Yonglong didn't have the guts for her. Where did Aijia go wrong?"
Eldest Princess Yiqing took a deep breath, "Why does the queen mother always struggle with this kind of problem? The imperial doctor has ordered you not to worry too much. The emperor didn't do something ridiculous, so you can't let him go." Do you want to live a few more years according to your own wishes?"
Eldest Princess Yiqing felt that she was at the level of an old lady, and she had endless worries all day long. She never thought that her own old lady was worse. She even suspected that if things continued like this, in the future, even what the emperor would wear inside and out would be of great concern to her. The old lady has to give pointers in person.
I have never seen a person with such a perverted desire to control, and being controlled by such a perverted mother, it is considered lucky to live an extra year.
The queen mother's chest rose and fell, and she was panting non-stop.
Eldest Princess Yiqing was not in a hurry to leave, and gently patted her back, "I have already asked the emperor, he will not take the maid back, at most, he will be pampered here in the palace for a few days, as long as the news If it is not passed back to the capital, who will know?"
These words finally sounded more comfortable, the Queen Mother snorted softly, "He is quite sensible, otherwise, if you really want to bring back a lowly maidservant, the women in the harem will have to team up and tear her apart."
Isn't that what you're talking about?Princess Yiqing complained that Luo Lan's identity could not be exposed, so if Emperor Yonglong wanted to take her back, she would have to continue to be a "handmaid".
The emperor, who had not favored his concubines for half a year, suddenly favored a lowly servant girl whose status was so much lower than theirs. How could those women be calm? No need to think about it, each of them would sharpen their fangs and wait for Luo Lan to send them to the door. She tore it off piece by piece and ate it alive.
And Emperor Yonglong also thought so, holding the woman in his arms, and said in a guilty tone, "Lan'er, I can't take you back to the palace."
"The concubine knows." She never thought of following him back to the palace.
"However, I will definitely think of a way to get the best of both worlds." His eyes were firm, "At that time, we won't need to sneak around."
Luo Lan covered her mouth and laughed lightly. It might be rare to say that couples who have paid homage to each other and made friends secretly have trysts like them, but thinking about it, it's still quite fresh and exciting.
"Are you still laughing?" Emperor Yonglong looked at her, "I won't be able to see each other for a long time after I go back, isn't it funny?"
Luo Lan blinked, and said slyly: "Then it seems that the emperor doesn't want to be a concubine anymore. Otherwise, if you want to see me, it's very simple. Doesn't Yugan Palace have an emergency tunnel leading to the outside of the palace?"
After her reminder, Emperor Yonglong's eyes lit up instantly, "Yes, why didn't I expect that there is a fork in that tunnel, and one of them leads to the Princess Mansion, Lan'er, why don't you just stay in the Princess Mansion from now on?" Well, I will be diligent during the day, but at night..."
Luo Lan was so ashamed and angry that she pushed him, "I didn't mean that, I just thought that if the emperor had something important to do, he would come out along the tunnel to find me, or I would just go find you, why do you..."
Emperor Yonglong looked at her with a smile, "What?"
Luo Lan hurriedly turned to the beginning, "How old are you, and you're not ashamed yet, if the queen mother finds out, the emperor will definitely suffer again."
Emperor Yonglong didn't care, "At the queen mother's place, there is an imperial sister who will stand up for it. Be good, listen to me, and stay in the princess mansion and wait for me."
Luo Lan thought for a while, her identity was sensitive, and she was in danger of being exposed anytime when she went out, if she stayed in the Princess Mansion, Princess Yiqing would be able to keep her safe, she nodded, "Okay."
-
Emperor Yonglong had a good understanding of his wicked son, knowing that if others did not come, he would quietly send spies to follow him to the palace, so he intentionally or unintentionally revealed the matter of Luo Lan to He Lianjin, the two hiding in the dark. The spies know.
When Bai Qi and Bai Shu got the shocking news, they naturally went back to Beijing to report the news non-stop.
East Palace.
"Your Highness, the court lady favored by the Emperor in Mengshan Palace is none other than your biological mother, our empress."
He Lianjin threw away the pen and stood up abruptly, "What did you say!"
