Ban Hua was invited to the front hall by Wang De. When she saw several palace maids standing in the front palace, she raised her eyebrows slightly. Rong Xia usually does not like palace maids to serve in the front palace. Why are there so many palace maids today
"Niangniang, please sit here." Wang De made a gesture of invitation, motioning for Ban Hua to sit behind the screen.
"Your Majesty asked me to listen to the corner again?" Ban Hua lifted the hem of her skirt, walked up the steps and sat down around the screen, "Tell me, does someone want to inform your Majesty?"
Wang Depei smiled and said, "My lady is really predictable. Someone did specifically ask to see your majesty. This person has some contacts with your majesty. Your majesty thought about it, and I couldn't refute this person's face, so I asked my servant to invite my majesty."
"It seems that he is still an old man." Ban Hua chuckled lightly, with no joy or anger in his laughter.
Wang De secretly looked at the queen's expression, and found that there was not much emotion on the other party's face, as if the old man could not affect her emotions. He lowered his head and stepped aside, the Queen's thoughts were sometimes really elusive.
Just thinking about it, there were footsteps outside, Wang De bowed to Ban Hua, and stepped back outside the screen.
After Wang De left, the smile on Ban Hua's face disappeared little by little, and suddenly smiled relievedly, and changed to a more comfortable position to sit on the chair.
"His Royal Highness," Wang De stepped forward and gave Princess Anle a salute, "please sit down for a while, Your Majesty will come later."
Princess Anle sneered: "You are a good dog."
Wang De smiled and bowed, and there was not a single mistake in the etiquette. Princess Anle's complexion changed slightly. She was afraid that this was Rong Xia's territory, so she didn't dare to say too many words. But as a former princess, she hated Wang De. He was obviously the chief eunuch next to the father, but now he was waiting in front of the new emperor with his tail wagging, ignoring the affection of his loyal master and servant.
Her eyelids drooped slightly, and when she saw that Wang Dejiao's palm was missing three fingers in front of her abdomen, the anger in her heart disappeared a lot. These three fingers are said to have been injured by his second brother when he was protecting his father. Thinking of what the second brother did, the anger on An Le's face disappeared, and he rubbed his forehead, "I shouldn't blame you."
The smile on Wang De's face remained unchanged: "Thank you for your magnanimity, Her Royal Highness."
"Your Majesty is polite," An Le smiled bitterly, "I am now..."
She is just a former princess, but the other party is the chief eunuch of the big family. If she wants to make things difficult for her, she can only suffer. The name of this princess seems to be beautiful, but in fact it is only good-looking on the face.
Wang Dechao bowed his hands to Anle and said, "His Royal Highness can figure it out. You and your niece are on good terms. As long as your niece is there, who would dare to blame you?"
This was because Wang De deliberately reminded Princess Anle of his past master-servant relationship, if the other party couldn't understand it, he would have nothing to say. Princess Anle has been doted on since she was a child, and she has never encountered any unpleasant things. The only concubine who thwarted her ended up in a ruined family. Later, she lived a luxurious and romantic life. People who have lived smoothly for a long time sometimes can't see the reality clearly. I hope this princess who has some friendship with the goddess will not make such foolishness.
Princess Anle smiled bitterly and was about to say a few words when the maids at the entrance of the palace knelt down one after another. Her heart skipped a beat, was Rong Xia here
Uncomfortably stood up from the chair, she looked at the door, and after a few breaths of time, Rong Xia finally walked in. The other party was wearing a black brocade robe with light-colored cloud patterns embroidered on the robe, which looked both elegant and extravagant.
But this seemingly gentle man killed hundreds of people in one day. These people were all people who had conspired with the second brother and stained the blood of the people on their hands. The generals praised him, saying that he was decisive in killing, and that he was a criminal of Mingjun. Scholars admired him, saying that he had a benevolent heart, treated talented people with kindness, and was a rare benevolent ruler.
It seems that everyone has forgotten that he was originally just a prince of the Jiang Dynasty, and even when the Jiang Dynasty still had a prince, Longpao added a body to establish a dynasty with a heart, and also named this dynasty as winning.
Win, win too.
He is obviously a man full of ambition and calculation, why do these people respect him like crazy
An Le clearly had a lot of unwillingness in her heart, but in the face of Rong Xia, she did not dare to show the slightest emotion on her face. She politely saluted: "I have seen Your Majesty."
"Princess doesn't need to be so polite, please take a seat." Rong Xia walked to the top and sat down, "I wonder why Your Highness is here today?"
"The sinner would like to ask His Majesty a few questions," An Le hesitated for a moment, "As long as you are willing to tell the truth, the sinner is willing to tell you the secrets of the Empress."
"Oh?" A very complicated smile appeared on Rong Xia's face, "Princess may I ask."
"Two... King Rui really let people poison the father?"
"Yes." Rong Xia nodded, "King Ru did have someone drug Emperor Yunqing."
An Le's face was instantly pale, and tears flowed down her cheeks. She wiped away the tears with the back of her hands, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for telling me."
"What else do you want to ask, Your Highness?" Rong Xia turned to look at the screen behind him, as if he was admiring the picture of cat playing with peony on the screen.
"Does Your Majesty have the blood of the Jiang family?"
"Princess, have you forgotten? Although my grandmother was expelled from the royal family, she is also in the blood of the Jiang family, so it is natural to have it," Rong Xia raised her eyebrows and looked at An Le, "Why would your Highness ask such a question?"
"What I want to ask is..." An Le looked at Rong Xia firmly, "Do you have the blood of your father?"
The hall was dead silent.
"Hey," Rong Xia sneered, "Your Highness, you must not take the rumors of those ignorant people outside seriously. Although I have some blood of the Jiang family, I am indeed the descendant of the Rong family. If people misunderstand, His Highness should not say it again in the future, lest foolish people take it seriously."
The last bit of blood on An Le's face dissipated, and her whole body instantly lost her vitality.
It turned out that Rong Xia was really not from the blood of the Jiang family. She couldn't even deceive herself. Their Jiang family's dynasty was really exhausted. She wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and wiped away the last tears, "If you have any questions, just ask."
"I don't have anything to ask," Rong Xia smiled, "My Queen is the most interesting book in the world. I read it every day and every now and then, and I won't get bored. If she really has any secrets, I will come here too. Digging a little bit, this can be considered as a little fun between husband and wife. Since His Highness's doubts have been resolved, please go back."
"A few years ago, I made fun of her, saying that she likes beautiful men so much, so she can only marry you, because there is no better man than you in the whole capital," An Le looked a little stunned, wondering if she was missing her past relationship with During the good times of Ban Hua's friendship, she still misses herself who was surrounded by the stars, "At that time, Hua Hua also said that the person you like must be a fairy and a concubine, and she will not join in the fun."
Who would have thought that a joke she made back then would actually come true.
No one likes the most beautiful man in the capital, but he wants to marry Ban Hua, who has a bad reputation.
"This is fate," Rong Xia's face smiled even more heavily, "God is destined to marry Hua, I am very grateful." He raised his hand, "Wang De, send Princess Anle back."
"Yes." Wang De breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, His Highness didn't say anything he shouldn't have said. Otherwise, the empress behind the screen would definitely be saddened to hear it.
"You love her so much," Princess Anle stood up, her tone becoming a little weird, "Can you bear it, she once had another man in her heart?"
Rong Xia's eyelids trembled slightly: "His Royal Highness, I and the Queen are deeply in love. What is the purpose of Your Highness's arrangement?"
"The husband and wife are deeply in love?" Princess Anle's tone was a little mocking. "It's just your self-righteous love. Have you met her third fiance? Don't you think he looks like someone?"
Princess Anle still hated Rongxia. She wished that he would not be happy every day, and that she would not be able to ask for it all her life, so that she could suppress the hatred in her heart.
"Hua doesn't love you at all. Back then, she was willing to get engaged to Xie Qilin because she fell in love with him. Otherwise, with the status of the Xie family, how could she be engaged to the daughter of the Ban family?" An Le looked at Rong Xia mockingly, " Even if you are the most beautiful man in the capital, what if you are amazing and talented, it's not you who impresses Hua Hua!"
"Nonsense!" Wang De reprimanded Princess Anle, "Your Majesty's friendship with Your Majesty, how can you arrange it, so hurry up and step back!"
"When I learned that Xie Qilin likes poetry, I don't know what method I used. I found a rare book and gave it to Xie Qilin." Princess Anle raised her chin. Wouldn't she know which man she was attracted to?"
"Rong Xia, even if you get the world of my Jiang family, you are the only one who sees you. When you are no longer young, she will naturally be able to appreciate other men. I can't get her sincerity!"
"Do you think I will believe your instigation?" Rong Xia looked at Princess Anle calmly, "If you are a friend of Yan, why would you say these words in front of me? Have you ever thought that these words will What are the consequences for Hua Hua?"
"A person like you is not worthy of being a friend of Hua Hua, nor is she worthy of calling her by her name," Rong Xia stood up, her voice cold and stern, "If I hear you calling the Empress by the name of the Empress again in the future, I will punish you for being disrespectful to the royal family. ."
An Le was a little frightened by Rong Xia's eyes, and her mind went blank. When she left the Da Yue Palace, she realized that the back of her palm was cold.
"Your Highness," Wang De stopped and bowed, "Please walk slowly."
Princess Anle looked at him and said, "Can I go and see the Empress?"
"You want to see the queen?"
An Le found that Wang De's expression was a little weird.
"Yes."
"His Royal Highness, it's really a bit unfortunate. The Empress summoned the Yang family today, I'm afraid I won't have time to see you." Wang De made a gesture of invitation, "His Royal Highness, come back next time."
"Ms. Yang?" Princess Anle saw a woman walking towards her in the distance. The person was timid, her eyes were erratic, and she looked very petty, "Is that her?"
"Exactly."
"Bengong knows." Princess Anle said nothing else and walked out of the boundary of Dayue Palace. Wang De looked at her back, and didn't turn around until she couldn't see anymore.
Some sentiments are unbearable to kill.
The hall was very quiet, Rong Xia sat in front of the imperial case and did not move. Ban Hua walked out from behind the screen and saw that he was holding a memorial in his hand, and said, "Is there anything you want to ask?"
Rong Xia put down the memorial and looked up at Ban Hua. The expression on her face was very natural, neither shocked nor angry, not even the sadness after being arranged by her friends, she was still that free and easy girl. He got up and took her into his arms, "You... are you really just interested in my appearance?"
"Why do you think so?" Ban Hua patted his head soothingly, "I like you a lot, otherwise why would I marry you."
"real?"
"Of course," Ban Hua put her head on his chest and blinked, "I never lie."
Rong Xia laughed, let go of Ban Hua, and stared into her eyes: "Hua, don't lie to me. I care about very few people in my life, and the only one I care about is you, if you lie to me , is no different from gouging out a heart.”
Ban Hua put his hand on his chest and felt the sound of his heart beating, "I'll let it stay inside."
She lowered her head, Rong Xia couldn't see her eyes.
"Niangniang, Mrs. Yang is here." Outside the hall, Ruyi's voice spoke cautiously.
"I see," Ban Huan pinched Rong Xia's chin and tiptoed to kiss his lips lightly, "Don't think about it, I haven't fallen in love with another man before."
Rong Xia embraced her and kissed her heavily on the lips.
"I believe you."
After Ban Hua left, Rong Xia sat in front of the imperial case for a long time without moving. Hua said that she had never fallen in love with another man before, he believed.
Now... does she love him
"Bang!"
Wang De saw that the tea cup on the imperial case fell to the ground, he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, are you all right?"
"I'm fine," Rong Xia said with an expressionless face, "let someone come in and clean up."
"Yes."
When Yang was still the daughter-in-law of the Rong family, she often had the opportunity to enter the palace, and even the Dayue Palace had been there. But at that time, although the Great Moon Palace was gorgeous, it was full of men's belongings. However, when she came this time, she found that in addition to being as gorgeous as before, the Dayue Palace also added a lot of things that women like.
In this palace, traces of women can be seen everywhere.
"The Empress is here."
She hurriedly knelt down to give a big salute, and didn't even dare to lift her head. A gorgeous long skirt passed by her, and she followed the direction of the skirt and changed her kneeling posture.
"Get up."
The queen's voice is nice and young. When she was in the Rong family, she remembered that Rong Erlang was an extremely cold child, and she wondered what kind of woman Queen Ban was to make him so obsessed. Last time, although she had the opportunity to enter the palace to participate in the grand ceremony, she was so far away from the queen that she could only vaguely see the outline of the other party.
She stood up cautiously, and after seeing the appearance of Queen Ban, she couldn't help taking a deep breath. She was such a beautiful character, like a female goblin in the mouth of a storyteller. If a man fell into her hands, she would not There is nowhere to escape.
Rong Erlang... The one you like is actually such a woman
When she and the Rong family first got married, her mother-in-law Lin hadn't passed away, and she still remembered that the other party was a very fresh and elegant talented girl. Otherwise, he would not let her father-in-law be so obsessed with her that he would marry her in spite of all the pressure.
Empress Ban and her mother-in-law, Lin, have no similarities in their bodies. It is hard to imagine that Rong Erlang, who is of extraordinary appearance, will be obsessed with this kind of woman who is completely opposite to Lin. She didn't dare to look at it, and after Ban Hua called, she bowed and stood in a proper manner, her hands so cramped that she didn't know where to put them.
"Listen to Mrs. Zhao, do you want to see this palace?" Ban Hua saw that Yang was not very courageous. It was hard to imagine that such a woman would kill her child and marry someone else when her husband was filial.
"Sinner Yang, I'm here to plead guilty to the goddess," Yang shi knelt down again, "the sinner knows that she has committed a serious crime, and she dare not ask for forgiveness from Your Majesty and the goddess. Don't pursue others."
"Get up and talk," Ban Hua tapped on the table. "What does this palace want your life to do? His Majesty has long since not planned to pursue it. This palace has no grievances with you, and will not deliberately make things difficult for you."
"Niangniang..." Yang shi looked at Ban Hua gratefully, "Thank you Niangniang!"
How could a woman with such a simple mind kill her child so ruthlessly
"Bengong sees that you are an honest person, how did you kill the child in the first place?"
"Niangniang, that child... didn't come from the sinner," Yang said with red eyes. "After the sinner married Rong Dalang, he didn't like the sinner, and even my mother-in-law didn't like me very much. Later, my mother-in-law did not like me. After passing away, Dalang was very sad, and we were unable to have children. Later, two years after the father-in-law passed away, the sinner finally had a child in the womb, how could he not be happy?"
Mrs. Yang talked about how the child was gone, and said that she was forced to marry someone. When it comes to being forced to marry, her tone is numb and calm, without the slightest indignation or joy.
Ban Hua made up some things more or less, such as Lin's dissatisfaction with his daughter-in-law, and Rong Dalang's disgust with his wife. After Rong Dalang passed away, Yang's miscarriage, coupled with her hurried remarriage, meant that in the eyes of others, she had lost her child.
It can be heard from Yang's words that her mother-in-law Lin, who she has never met before, is a very difficult person to get along with. She suddenly thought that after Rong Xia had been on the throne for so long, he had never given any honorary titles other than chasing Mrs. Lin as Mrs. Dingguo of the first grade according to the rules. The mother-son relationship between him and Mrs. Lin did not seem too Intense.
Compared with the Lin family, Rong Xia put a lot of effort into chasing the late father. Not only did he superimpose several titles, but he was also promoted to the super-ranking prince and the prince. emperor.
"Lin's... Mother-in-law of this palace, how are you treating your majesty?" Ban Hua saw Yang's hesitant look, and said, "You must tell this palace truthfully. If this palace finds out that you lied, this palace will definitely punish you."
"Sinners don't dare," Mrs Yang said hurriedly, "Mother-in-law is a woman who cherishes flowers and cherishes the moon. She has a good relationship with her father-in-law. When taking care of His Majesty, it is inevitable... It is inevitable that some neglects are inevitable. His Majesty's daily homework is mostly The father-in-law is in charge, and the servant girl takes care of the rest. The mother-in-law is cold-hearted and doesn't care about these common things. But she has extremely high demands on your majesty and her deceased husband, and has always demanded them according to the gentleman's demeanor in the books."
Yang was a soft-spoken and submissive woman. Even if she thought her mother-in-law Lin was a little strange, she didn't dare to say it, and she didn't even dare to get too close to her brother-in-law, for fear that her mother-in-law would blame her.
Later, when Lin passed away, she didn't feel sad, but happy.
She knew that her thoughts were wrong, but she couldn't control it.
"Bengong understands," Ban Hua waved his hand, "you step back."
"Thank you madam, the sinner retire."
Ban Hua asked storytellers, dancers, etc. to relieve her boredom, but she couldn't get any interest, so she waved them back and said, "Someone, go and call Commander Du."
Du Jiu has always been by Rong Xia's side. The person who knows what kind of life Rong Xia lived as a child should be Du Jiu.
Du Jiu heard that the Empress was looking for him. Later, the Empress was bored and wanted to leave the palace. When she arrived in the palace, she found that the Empress looked a little unsightly, so she stepped forward and saluted, "Goddess, but who made you unhappy in the palace?"
"I'm a little unhappy in my heart," Ban Hua gave him a seat, "Tell me about your master's childhood and relieve my boredom."
"The last commander is worried that you will be more bored after talking about the things about the master's childhood," Du Jiu said honestly, "the life of the master when he was a child was very boring, not as good as your, um... colorful."
This young lady of the Ban family has been a girl that few people dare to provoke since she was a child. She has never played or seen anything. It's not like his master, who will start to endorse books and calligraphy at a young age, and when he is older, he will ride horses and shoot arrows, and learn the legacy of a gentleman. If he doesn't do well at all, his wife will look at the master with disappointment and not cry. The field is not over.
"How boring, tell me," Ban Hua put her cheek with one hand, "I'm with your master, and I rarely hear him talk about his childhood. How can I not be curious."
"After the master was three years old, he would get up at the hour of the hour, and after an hour of reading and writing, he would go to greet his wife..."
"Wake up at the moment?" Ban Ma looked at Du Jiu in surprise, "A three-year-old child gets up at the hour at the moment, isn't this torturing the child?"
Du Jiugan smiled and said, "This is the rule set by Madam."
"She asked the child to get up at the hour, but she was greeted by the child an hour later. Isn't this treating herself leniently and being strict with others?" Ban Yan rolled her eyes, "Pity your master, living such a life at such a young age. When I was three years old, I wouldn't get up unless I slept until dawn."
The smile on Du Jiu's face can't be hung up anymore, how should he answer this
One is the master's mother, and the other is the master's most beloved woman. Whatever he says is death.
"Then tell me again, what interesting things happened to your master when he was a child, what did he want to do but didn't do, and what he would be embarrassed to do when he grew up?"
Du Jiu shook his head: "Master has been very self-disciplined since he was a child, and he doesn't have any special hobbies."
"There is one interesting thing. When the master was eleven or twelve years old, he met a little girl in the palace and was dragged by the little girl to play on the ice..." Du Jiu said, "But after the lady found out about this, the master was punished."
"Who punished?"
"lady."
"What's the penalty?"
"Twenty whips, copy the family rules ten times." Du Jiu still remembers the appearance of blood oozing from the back of the master's back when he was beaten. Less than a year after that incident, the wife died of illness. Since then, he has never seen his master do anything like a child.
It was so cold in winter, the master was lying on the bed, and the imperial doctor didn't cry or make trouble when he gave him medicine, but Lord Hou had a fight with his wife because of this.
When Ban Hua heard this, her heart felt as if she had been soaked in vinegar, punctured by needles, and sore and painful. She was silent for a long time, looked out the window and said, "This year's heavy snow is coming soon."
Du Jiu looked at Ban Hua in confusion, and nodded dumbly: "It should be."
That night, it snowed in the capital.
Ban Hua was wearing a fox fur, standing on the steps, looking at the snow-covered world, turned to a personal guard and said, "You go and tell the prince, that Ben Gong wants to go to the ice, let him find a good place, I will tomorrow Go find him."
"Yes."
Ban Hua smiled and turned to walk towards the main hall.
In the main hall, Rong Xia listened to several close officials discussing the talented young people in the capital.
"Xie Qilin, the second son of Uncle Yuan Zhongping, also has some talent for learning, but it's a pity that he hurt his eyes..."
"I don't need people with bad morals."
Zhou Bing'an was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Your Majesty's words are very true, and the minister missed the inspection."
