694, house arrest 6
Being threatened by King Li, the emperor had no way to vent his anger, so in the end he could only obey King Li and exchanged terms.
Trial the case of Marshal Zhao and hand it over to the prince.
The exchange condition is to release Zhao and Gu Qianxue from the palace.
It was already noon, and the emperor wanted to leave all his ministers to eat in the palace, but he lost his mind after being made such a fuss by King Li.
Saying long live, knelt down and worshiped, after the emperor left, all the ministers retreated with different expressions.
Gu Qianxue's thoughts were complicated and heavy. As soon as she walked out of the imperial study, she saw an unfamiliar eunuch, "My servant greets Princess Qianxue. That's it. Concubine Qin wants to invite the princess to Yongxian Palace for lunch, and she also invites the princess to have lunch." Follow the servants."
Qianxue subconsciously refused, but she felt relieved when she thought that the Zhao family had Xiangju and Xiangqi to take care of her, and went to Yongxian Palace with the eunuch.
The eunuch invited people at the entrance of the imperial study room. Apart from the officials, the palace people in the imperial study room also saw that there was no abnormality, so Gu Qianxue followed along with confidence.
What's more, she has been to Yongxian Palace.
Yongxian Palace.
Before the meal was served, Concubine Qin was leisurely tending the flowers and plants in the yard. There was a slight smile on her soft and beautiful cheeks, but if you looked carefully, the smile didn't reach your eyes.
He was obviously watering the flowers, but actually he seemed to be thinking about something.
"Princess Qianxue has arrived." The eunuch sang in harmony.
Concubine Qin froze for a moment, and frowned slightly, but when she stood up and raised her head, this movement disappeared, replaced by a gentle smile, "Qianxue is here?"
The eunuch said, "My lady, the servant has brought Princess Qianxue from the imperial study, and I am here to accompany my lady for lunch."
Concubine Qin knew it well, but she acted flawlessly, "Thank you for your hard work, this father-in-law."
The eunuch said, "Your Majesty has beaten this servant. If your Majesty has no other orders, the servant will leave."
"Okay." Concubine Qin said, winking at Nanny Shen at the side.
Mother Shen immediately stepped forward and stuffed the purse containing the silver into the eunuch's hand.
The eunuch touched the heavy silver with an even more respectful attitude, and left with gratitude.
But at this time, the delayed lunch "coincidentally" arrived.
Because the weather was sunny and the temperature was moderate, the lunch was simply set in the yard.
Concubine Qin planted a lot of flowers, which were lush and full of fragrance. It was extremely comfortable to enjoy delicious food in such a courtyard.
"Qianxue, I have wronged you." Concubine Qin gently took Qianxue's hand and entered the table, "Poor child, I originally thought that the second prince would be your good home, but I didn't expect this to be the result. What are your plans for the future?" ?”
When dealing with Concubine Qin, Gu Qianxue was straightforward, "Thank you for your concern, the matter of the second prince doesn't hurt me too much. After all, my heart belongs to me, and that person is not the second prince."
"Who is it?" Concubine Qin hesitated. In fact, she knew about Gu Qianxue and Su Lingxiao, but deep down in her heart, she hoped that Gu Qianxue would marry Li Wang.
"Your Majesty knows that person's name, and he has a deep friendship with King Li," Gu Qianxue deliberately mentioned the relationship between the two, "Su Lingxiao."
The smile on the corner of Concubine Qin's mouth was a little stiff, and she nodded, "I have also heard about Young Master Su from Yu'er. Apart from his poor health, he is indeed a good match. It's just his status... Hey, let's have dinner, Otherwise, the food will be cold in a while."
Qianxue could naturally hear Concubine Qin's reminder that she wanted to cover up, and she just pretended that she didn't understand, so she started to eat.
The two used to have meals together when they were in Prince Li's Mansion. Although Princess Yong'an attacked and provoked her from time to time, the atmosphere was generally warm because Concubine Qin had always protected her.
It's a pity that the situation has changed, which just proves the saying-every year, people are different.
"Mother Shen, sit down too, let's eat together, master and servant," said Concubine Qin, "I really miss the time when I was in the palace."
Mother Shen sat down obediently.
Afterwards, there was a happy scene.
Concubine Qin was reminiscing about the old days, and Nanny Shen was also sensational again and again, making Gu Qianxue's nose sour and eye circles red, but there was still a strange sense of uneasiness in her heart.
This feeling is faint, but it cannot be ignored.
After all, what is the problem
Concubine Qin personally picked up a tender mushroom for Gu Qianxue, "I remember that Qianxue likes to eat mushrooms the most."
Gu Qianxue hurriedly held the plate in both hands to express her gratitude, "Yes, thank you, Ma'am."
Question, where is it
While eating food calmly, Gu Qianxue looked at Concubine Qin and the entire Yongxian Palace.
"Qianxue eat more." Concubine Qin added food again.
"Thank you, ma'am, you should eat more, ma'am." Gu Qianxue perfunctory.
"Oh, by the way, go and fetch the peach blossom wine given by the emperor," Concubine Qin ordered to the maid at the side, and then said to Qian Xue, "That peach blossom wine is sweet and delicious, most women love it."
Suddenly, Gu Qianxue froze in place.
emperor
Yes, how did she forget the emperor
Why didn't they even give him water yesterday, but sent Xiangju and Xiangqi to serve him attentively today
Why did you call her to the Royal Study Room? It seems that the matters discussed by the officials are closely related to her, but in fact she has no room to comment at all.
She doesn't believe that the emperor must have some purpose for doing nothing!
She calmed down and sorted out the whole thing, from morning to Yongxian Palace.
Tune the tiger away from the mountain
When thinking of these four words, Gu Qianxue felt a chill down her spine.
"Your Majesty, we'll try the peach blossom wine next time, so Qianxue should go back first." Gu Qianxue said.
Concubine Qin was puzzled, "Ah? We haven't finished our lunch yet, is there anything urgent for you?"
Qian Xueli smiled slightly, "The father-in-law who reported just now said that the empress has important things to do in the afternoon, and there is only one incense stick of time to eat at noon, the empress forgot?"
cheat!
Concubine Qin was taken aback for a moment, then immediately smiled and said, "I remember, I still remember, look at my memory, hey... I am getting old but my brain is not working well."
Shen Momo said roundly, "Your Majesty is still young, don't say that, it's because she had a good conversation with the princess, just forget about it."
Qianxue's heart is like a mirror.
Concubine Qin said, "Then let's come here today, isn't it my palace's fault, next time I have more time, I will invite Qianxue again."
Gu Qianxue said with a smile, "Where, it's Qianxue's honor to come to accompany your empress for a meal. Empress, please do your work first, and Qianxue will leave first." After saying that, she left Yongxian Palace accompanied by Nanny Shen.
When leaving Yongxian Palace, the smile on Gu Qianxue's face gradually faded, and her footsteps became even more hurried. She must return to Jianning Palace as soon as possible!
Nanny Shen sent Gu Qianxue away and returned to Yongxian Palace, "Madam, what happened at noon today?"
Concubine Qin sneered, "What else could be going on? You and I know it well, so it's fine."
the other side.
Gu Qianxue almost ran back to Jianning Palace. When she arrived at Jianning Palace, she ignored the guards' interception and rushed into the room.
However, there is a luxurious dining table in the center of the huge room, which is full of various delicacies, Xiangqi and Xiangju are on the side, and besides Mrs. Zhao looking for Ruolan, there is one other person eating on the table.
emperor!
