It was almost evening, and the performance on the stage was coming to an end. After flattering everyone for a day, everyone was tired, and when it was time to leave the stage, the smiles on everyone's faces could no longer conceal the exhaustion from the bottom of their hearts.
In this busy schedule, the queen still did not forget about Lu Xiaoshu, and ordered Aunt Qing to send Lu Xiaoshu's mother and daughter out of the palace in person.
Lu Xiaoshu hurriedly humbly apologized and smiled but did not dare to take them, but Aunt Qing insisted on sending them out, and said with a smile: "What is there not to dare to do? The old slave is just a slave! Madam Hou and the second young lady just accept it! Today There are a lot of people in the palace, and the slaves will send them off in person, so the empress should rest assured, the empress really likes the second girl!"
Lu Xiaoshu felt more and more uneasy, but Mu Qing was overwhelmed by flattery. She felt that it was a blessing that the queen valued her daughter so much, so she thanked Aunt Qing for not mentioning it with a smile.
When passing by the Qianqing Palace, Lu Xiaoshu subconsciously looked there, only to find that the palace guards were hurrying to and fro, and the expressions on everyone's faces were a little nervous and solemn. something wrong
Ordinarily, today's occasion is tall and full of festivities. As long as it is not too outrageous, even if you do something wrong, you will not be scolded. Why do these slaves look like they are facing a big enemy
Before Lu Xiaoshu could figure out why, it was already over.
She couldn't help but turn her head and stare at that side. Aunt Qing smiled and said, and then quickly looked away with a smile and faced her eyes.
She seemed to understand a little bit why the queen sent Aunt Qing off. The palace was afraid that something really happened, and the empress was afraid that if their mother and daughter were bumped, they sent Aunt Qing to send them off in person.
Things in the palace can be hidden from those who are attending the banquet, but how can they be hidden from the queen
However, from this, it can be seen that the Queen really treats herself extremely well! So good that I feel terrified!
Lu Xiaoshu had another headache. She has always been adhering to the view that if you have nothing to do, you can either rape or steal...
What Lu Xiaoshu said was right, something serious happened in Qianqing Palace!
The matter happened to the fourth prince.
When presenting the birthday gift, the fourth prince presented a white deer to the emperor.
This is no ordinary gift, it is auspicious. Things that only appear when Mingjun is in power and the world is prosperous and peaceful.
The appearance of the white deer shows God's affirmation of Emperor Xiangqing! Especially when the white deer appeared when the Yellow River was flooded, it meant that the flood would never lead to a catastrophe, and it would definitely be resolved soon.
He showed his face in front of officials, courtiers and foreign envoys. Emperor Xiangqing was both surprised and happy. Seeing this white deer was more joyful than seeing any gift. In addition, the fourth prince had already ordered someone to make a flowery article and memorized it by heart, and the eloquence at this time made Emperor Xiangqing even more elated.
Emperor Xiangqing was very proud. On his birthday, there was a white deer to celebrate his birthday, so he wanted to show off, and specially allowed important officials of the court and foreign envoys to come forward to pay close attention to the white deer.
This was originally a good thing, but unexpectedly, an accident happened.
For some reason, the white deer was suddenly frightened and ran wildly, the court ladies and eunuchs screamed again and again, and the whole birthday banquet scene immediately became chaotic. Emperor Xiangqing hurriedly ordered the imperial guards to step forward to control.
It took all the guards to subdue the frenzied white deer. What's worse, everyone discovered to their horror that this white deer was not a white deer at all, it was a fake! After a turmoil, the suspected white paint painted on it fell off piece by piece, revealing a brownish-yellow background...
You can imagine how ugly that white deer is at this moment!
When this embarrassing thing happened in front of so many people, Emperor Xiangqing's face was terribly livid, and the fourth prince's eyes turned black, and he knelt in front of his father tremblingly to plead guilty, wishing he could hit his head to death...
When things got to this point, it made no difference whether he crashed to death or not!
The ashen-faced Emperor Xiangqing waved his hand, without even making a sound, the imperial guards stepped forward and took the fourth prince down.
The fourth prince raised his head slightly, and the bright yellow dragon robe on his father's body, which was embroidered with five-clawed golden dragons and inlaid with various gemstones, shone dazzlingly in the sun, making him feel dazzled and dazzled for a while.
Perhaps, he thought, this was the last time he'd see him.
He never dreamed that there would be such a flaw in what was originally a foolproof thing! That white deer has been tamed long ago, and it is extremely docile. It is impossible to be surprised by the lively drum music at the scene, even if it is stepped on by two feet, it is impossible to be surprised!
But it happened to be startled! And the degree of shock is not low! There is only one possibility, and that is: someone secretly tampered with it!
Who is it!
The expression of his gentle, graceful, dignified and generous "mother queen" suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, and the fourth prince's heart trembled fiercely. Suddenly, an indescribable chill spread in my heart...
It was he who wanted to go left! He kept staring at her and the Prince's mansion, thinking that she would try to get the prince out before the Longevity Festival, so he ignored other aspects. Unexpectedly, she actually had the idea of besieging Wei and saving Zhao!
Sure enough, she is so scheming!
But it doesn't matter, she has Zhang Liang's plan, and he also has a wall ladder.
The corner of the fourth prince's lips unconsciously curled into an imperceptible sneer, he is unlucky, and the prince will not benefit from it...
Without a sound, the fourth prince was taken down.
After something like this happened, although the birthday banquet would continue, everyone lost their previous mood. Everyone is trembling, fighting hard, not to mention taking the initiative to flatter and flatter, and hoping that Chi Yu will survive this day safely without harming Chi Yu!
Unless you were blind, you didn't see how reluctant Emperor Xiangqing looked on the throne.
Barely all the procedures were completed, and Emperor Xiangqing couldn't sit still any longer, so he got up and left under the pretext of "changing clothes".
As soon as he leaves, who among the people still wants to watch a movie and enjoy singing and dancing? After he left, he reluctantly stayed for a while, and got up and left one after another. The foreign envoys also went back to the post house with interest. You look at me, I look at you, mutual tacit understanding.
"Nizi! Nizi!" In the dormitory, Emperor Xiangqing had already replaced the exquisite dragon robe specially made for this birthday banquet by hundreds of the most exquisite embroiderers, and replaced it with an apricot-yellow soft silk round neck Wearing regular clothes with jade patterns, the more you think about it, the more angry you become.
Two teacups were broken on the gold brick floor, and no one dared to clean them up. No one can afford the emperor's thunderous wrath.
What happened today was really a shame he had never experienced in his life, and it made him so angry that he had the urge to kill someone.
If the person who cheated was not his son, he would have already entered the Tianzihao prison at this moment, and soon his whole family and all relatives of the whole family would also be in the Tianzihao prison, and they would never want to come out again!
However, it was his son who did such absurd things. He used to think that he was indifferent, had no intention of fame and wealth, and only wanted to be the son of a virtuous king!
If that was the case, he would not have deliberately tried to please the prince when he was under house arrest.
Think about it, the white deer, which symbolizes auspiciousness, was not seen by others, but it was presented by him. This not only shows that his father is a wise king, but also shows that he has a virtuous name as a son! If he had no intention of competing for reserves, why would he play such tricks
His heart is clearly revealed!
His ambition, which he had hidden for so many years, was finally fully exposed! I really don't know how he feels at this moment!
It's ridiculous to think about it! Think how stupid he is!
Born in a heavenly family, who wouldn't want to sit in this chair? Who would be truly indifferent and not seek fame and fortune? It's just a big joke!
"This traitor, I will never spare him!" Emperor Xiangqing walked up and down the hall in agitation, and couldn't help but slapped the hard mahogany table again.
"Your Majesty," Eunuch Fuquan was forced by Concubine Sun outside the palace, entered the door tremblingly, lowered his head and whispered: "Concubine Sun Gui, please see me..."
"She still dares to come!" Emperor Xiangqing glared at Fuquan and yelled, "They are all good sons raised by her!"
"Yes, yes, this servant invites the imperial concubine to go back!" Fuquan was startled, almost out of his wits.
"Stop!" Emperor Xiangqing yelled at him again, and said coldly, "Tell her to come in!"
He has nowhere to vent his anger, if someone comes to his door to let him vent his anger, of course he will not let it go.
"Yes, yes!" Fuquan felt relieved, and hurriedly withdrew from the hall to deliver the decree.
Concubine Sun Guifei had already taken off her multicolored silk silk court gown of Di Que, Ruizhi and Xiangyun, and the exquisite jewelry studded with pearls and gemstones. A silver hairpin with a fixed bun, without any ornaments.
Wash off the makeup and powder, clean the face with water, there are still spots of tears on the face, and the eyes are slightly red and swollen.
She knew that the emperor in the palace must be full of thunderous fury at this time, if it was normal, she would never come together. But at this time, she didn't have to retreat!
Even if he wanted her life, she could only wash her neck and stick it out.
If he wants her to die, how can she live.
"Your Majesty," Fu Quan finally came out, and whispered, "The Emperor invites you in..."
Concubine Sun Gui raised her head, smiled sadly at Fuquan, and said in a low voice, "Thank you, Eunuch."
"Oh my lord, don't say that, you can't afford to be a slave." Fuquan, who has been in the palace for decades, knows how to be cautious in his words and deeds, and treat others kindly better than anyone else.
Concubine Sun Guihe smiled, bowed her head and walked away. She secretly thought, before entering the palace, she was still a noble concubine, and when she came out, she was probably nothing, right
"Your Majesty, my concubine has come to plead guilty to the Emperor!" Concubine Sun Guifei immediately knelt down as soon as she entered the palace, walked to Emperor Xiangqing on her knees, bowed her head deeply to the ground, and said with a sob: "Your Majesty, all my concubines will die! "
"Millions?" Emperor Xiangqing sneered, staring at the pitiful imperial concubine on the ground, but her expression was cold and indifferent, unable to see a drop of past affection.
He stared at her coldly like a sword, and said with a sneer, "Since you know that you will die, why don't you die? Make it like this and show it to me in front of me? Don't you know that today is my birthday? You Wearing all white, are you going to curse me? Yes!"
