The emperor's pounce not only failed Yun Fenghuang's plan to escape, but in his haste, his entire weight fell on her - he was originally tall, in his youth and had been practicing martial arts for many years, so he had no body parts. Half of the fat is not visible when the clothes are neatly dressed, but in fact the texture is tight, the blocks are clear, and the weight is really not light.
At this moment, the attack and collision became more and more powerful. Yun Fenghuang was caught off guard and couldn't help but cry out in pain. He felt that his bones were about to break and he didn't even think about pushing back.
However, after pushing with all his strength, the emperor not only remained motionless, but also held her hands down, squinted his eyes, looked down at her, and said solemnly: "Aren't you just scolding me with all your strength? What are you afraid of? Why are you running?"
Yun Fenghuang couldn't move, but he refused to weaken his momentum at all. Hearing this, he sneered: "How can the victims of the three states not be aggrieved and angry? Isn't it the same as fleeing from famine and rebelling? If God doesn't give people a way to survive, people can't live a greedy life. Have you thought about it?!"
"..." Chunjia stared at her for a long time, his eyes as if he wanted to tear her apart. Finally, he suddenly let go of her and stood up. While adjusting his clothes and sleeves, he said lightly, "My beloved concubine is really beautiful. Audacious and sharp-tongued, Yun is not unjust this time."
Yun Fenghuang did not move, still maintaining the prone position, and even half-turned over. He looked back and said with a chuckle: "So your Majesty doesn't plan to deal with me?"
"My knees are empty. In the past few years, from the Empress Dowager and the three queen mothers to the subjects and court officials, no matter what they think in their hearts, no one has failed to show their respect for the emperor's heir." Emperor Chunjia said expressionlessly. He said, "Especially because the imperial concubine has a high position, and the miscarriage this time is a male heir... Zheng is already very confident, and with you adding fuel to the fire just now, it is a foregone conclusion. Dealing with you will not help, so why bother Is this unnecessary?"
"But you can vent your anger." Yun Fenghuang covered her mouth with a smile and sat up slowly. She changed into palace clothes before the banquet. She was now wearing a black short jacket with dark embroidery and peony patterns on the front, wide sleeves on the chest, and a hint of pomegranate on her chest. The red background is embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water. The black and red colors are extremely strong. When viewed under the lamp, the skin becomes more white, delicate and radiant, like mutton-fat jade.
Due to her young age, this concubine has never been fond of wearing heavy makeup, but perhaps she was too excited due to the attack a moment ago. At this moment, there is still a hint of crimson left at the end of her eyes, and when her starry eyes are turning, there is an innocent and wanton coquettishness.
Different from Lu Qintai's pure and innocent expression when he knelt down and begged in front of the public a while ago, he exuded a seductive flavor and said with a soft and sweet tone, "Isn't it?"
"Do you want to die?" The emperor looked down at her, and after a moment, he suddenly said, "It seems that you really hate the Yun family... But I don't know if it's because they arranged for you to join the Huzhu Palace as a Baolin, or because they separated you and Qi Jiulu. Again later?"
Yun Fenghuang used her strength to stand up, and the twelve skirts decorated with jasmine flowers on the dark green bottom were gathered up. It looked like a pool of deep blue water rotating with her movements, and the hidden golden threads in the skirt were shadowed. The candlelight is refracted little by little, reminding people of the sparkling waves on the water under the shade of the trees at this time.
And she is a mysterious spirit standing in the waves. She looks beautiful and charming, but in fact she has hidden evil intentions. She covers her mouth and chuckles: "For His Majesty, in the past eight years since he ascended the throne, he has been in the harem. The most difficult thing for Your Majesty is, Is it because the emperor's name exists in name only, or is he unable to be with Yuan Yuniang for the rest of his life?"
The emperor fell silent immediately, secretly reflecting on what he was doing to nag her
"It's getting late." After a moment, the emperor spoke again, "Send someone to come in and clean up. Let's go and make arrangements."
Yun Fenghuang's half-smiling expression suddenly froze: "...what?"
The emperor looked at her and said calmly: "It's time to make arrangements, let's go."
"Who is your majesty visiting tonight?" Yun Fenghuang choked, and then asked with a smile, "Yi Yuwan is already happy, so I'm afraid she is not suitable to serve your majesty, but Qu Fengyi and the others..."
"I didn't mention you by name, so I'm naturally here to honor you." The emperor interrupted her, sneered, lowered his head to her ear, and said softly, "After all, my beloved concubine has just repeatedly emphasized that I don't want any concubines other than my mother-in-law to give birth to children. The emperor...why are you so stupid now?"
Yun Fenghuang pursed his lips, stiffened for a moment, and then chuckled: "I just lost my composure. I just wanted to be rejected by Your Majesty. Who would have thought that Your Majesty is so generous and generous, but it seems that I am unreasonable and vexatious... Your Majesty, just a moment Wait, I will make arrangements right away."
She turned around and dug her nails into her palms: She had just had an outburst that seemed justified and full of grief and anger, but in fact, she was not equal to the emperor. If someone like them was born to be a servant, they would end up being enslaved. Such things are taboo!
No matter how gentle your temperament is, you will inevitably feel instinctive boredom and hostility when you meet one.
Not to mention that the emperor has not been willing to be a puppet all these years. Ordinary people, even those with relatively high status, may feel secretly ashamed and guilty after hearing those accusations, but most of all, they must be angry!
After all, the emperor was born as a prince, and then as a vassal king, and he would be king at the age of fifteen... As Yun Fenghuang said, even if he was ignored, he would live a life where no one would bow down and worship him wherever he went.
Why should Yun Fenghuang, a concubine who had repeatedly opposed him and repeatedly targeted his childhood sweetheart, who only took refuge in him due to the situation, but then followed his footsteps and ruined his major affairs, pointed her nose and yelled at her? !
In Yun Fenghuang's expectation, the emperor couldn't bear it anymore and became violent. It was reasonable to take action like he did just now.
But she didn't expect him to control his emotions so quickly...
Do you even want to stay to visit her? !
If Yun Fenghuang was the emperor, even if he could stop his anger in time and make a rational decision, he would definitely not be in the mood to stay in Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion anymore, and he would not even want to see anyone from Xuanqing Palace in the next few days.
After all, those words just now... were not ordinary heart-breaking words!
"After eight years of being a turtle, the city is really deep." Yun Fenghuang bit his lip and snorted secretly, "I just don't know if he is just pretending now, or... he still has some back-ups to get what he wants?"
She went out and called the palace servants over to tell them to clean up the mess. She also asked the concubines if their meals had been delivered.
Xile whispered: "I sent it just now. Yi Yuwan's share was delivered to Yuwan personally by my servant. No one else got involved in the process."
"I always feel at ease when you do things." Yun Fenghuang nodded, praised, and said, "Your Majesty will stay tonight. You can ask someone to prepare."
Xile was stunned and then said: "Yes."
The master's eyes became more and more awe-inspiring. After all, anyone with a discerning eye could see how angry the emperor was when he came. Everyone thought that Yun Fenghuang was going to be in a mess tonight, but now he actually wants to stay overnight
I don’t know how this master dealt with the emperor
Xile was curious but didn't dare to inquire. Seeing that Yun Fenghuang had no other instructions, he went down.
Yun Fenghuang went inside and invited the emperor to go upstairs with her. She picked up the palace people and lived with them. They were all arranged on the first and second floors. Of course, the entire third floor was reserved for her.
It's hot outside now, but the wind is cool in the mountains. Although the moon is not full this night, the moonlight is very beautiful. As clear and moist as silver, as cold as frost. The quiet sky is shining down, and I look out from between the window lattice of Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion. The ground is bright and clean, and it is indescribably peaceful and beautiful, without any complexity of the world.
The night wind blows, holding up the clothes and sleeves, fluttering and almost wanting to go back, making people confused and not knowing what night it is today.
It's a pity that the person next to her has ruined such a beautiful moment... The imperial concubine looked at each other and subconsciously looked at each other, thinking the same thing in her heart.
Yun Fenghuang only said that the emperor endured his boredom and stayed. He probably felt that it was too late at night and didn't want to bother, so he would just stay for one night.
However, the two of them undressed and took off their belts respectfully and got on the couch. She was still half-kneeling to untie the tent in the golden hook. She was only halfway untied, but he was already pressing up...
The emperor is young and knows how to be restrained. He is not the kind of emperor who is obsessed with beauty and has exhausted his body early. Because of his gentle, generous, pure and filial persona in public, he is usually considered considerate in bed and bed, but he will also give his concubine some pain when he is annoyed. —I don’t know how the other concubines would handle this situation. Anyway, Yun Fenghuang scratched him badly last time.
She just wanted to do it again tonight, and even felt a little annoyed when she cut her nails while grooming in the town, fearing that she would not hurt him more seriously than last time.
However, the emperor's eyes were as sharp as a blade, and his movements could not be considered gentle, but he never tortured her intentionally. Amidst the violent shaking of the couch, a deep and depressing emotion lingered around him.
It’s so complex that it’s hard to describe, like still water flowing deep.
After Wen Cun called the palace servants to come in and serve him, the two lay down again. Yun Fenghuang quickly fell asleep due to the torment of the day.
It's just that she had already taken a nap during the day because of the medicine she took, and she woke up again not long after she fell asleep.
When he woke up, he found that the emperor was still asleep. He opened his eyes and stared silently out of the window from the tent that Yun Fenghuang hadn't hung up just now.
From Yun Fenghuang's perspective, the profile of his profile was very strong. The moonlight outside the window was as bright as snow, and the coldness between his brows was a bit colder than the moonlight.
The eyes under the long eyelashes are as bright as a ghost, but neither sad nor happy.
It is not the indifference of seeing through the floating life and forgetting about the world, but the indifference of being numb to the outside world after the sorrow has reached the extreme.
For a moment, Yun Fenghuang even suspected that the emperor was sobbing secretly.
In fact, he didn't shed any tears, but it was as if people could hear the wailing in his heart.
… It’s tough, right
Yun Fenghuang was worried that his gaze would be noticed by him, so he closed his eyes again, clenched his fists subconsciously, and thought to himself: He lost his father when he was young, and immediately sent away his grandmother. Although he had the support of his aunt to inherit the king's title, because of It's just that a concubine is destined to be more cautious than other vassal princes, lest the court find excuses to demote him from the title...
Suddenly he was chosen as the heir of Xiaozong, and he hastily bid farewell to the ancestral hall of King Fuyang. The original childhood sweetheart relationship between him and Qingmei has since developed cracks that will never be restored.
After traveling thousands of miles to bring the young and old to the imperial capital, waiting for him was not only the seat, but also the uncle of the half-step emperor's brother, the Ji family who held the power of the Phoenix Seal for three generations, the hussar general who held the imperial army, and the master's sergeant. Cui Wan, leader Lin, thought that the world was asking for help but regarded the decline of imperial power as unseen. He went to the harem, surrounded by jackals, tigers and leopards, and the only one who showed support was Duke Yi.
But not only was this royalist faction weak, but the unruly Qingmei was also exposed by murdering the family's eldest daughter...
The concubines with noble backgrounds had different thoughts, but none of them really treated him sincerely. Although Qingmei is infatuated, she keeps holding back and wants his constant comfort and relief... And he still has his adoptive mother, biological mother and young half-sister to take care of.
After eight years of marriage, the children have had miscarriages one after another, and there is always an emptiness under their knees.
He knew the reason very well, but he didn't even dare to mention it.
He watched helplessly as his own flesh and blood, the expected and unexpected, the formed and the unformed, gradually left in the conspiracy and in the weakness of his dormant state.
The majestic palace is full of people inside and outside, but there are only a handful of people who are loyal to the emperor, and they often face suppression and murder from the Ji family.
After enduring it over and over again, he finally seized the opportunity to gain a chance of survival, but still, the future was long—
The future is unknown, but maybe he will eventually be able to revitalize the Gongxiang clan and truly control the arbitrariness of Yu Nei Gan Gang.
Maybe he failed and was ruined...
How many outsiders know the humiliation and hardships he endured
How many people can understand his pain, fatigue, and trembling? !
Yun Fenghuang couldn't help but think of his journey to the North, especially after Kongquepo drove away Qi Jiulu... The heart-wrenching pain couldn't be described in words.
Why should you bear the consequences of something that is not your fault
Why is this world so unfair
Why do those who do evil have their dreams come true and live a down-to-earth life, and their families are ruined
Why…
When she came back to her senses, she found that she had held the emperor's hand at some point.
His hands were as cold as ice, without any warmth at all.
And so were her hands.
"..." Yun Fenghuang was silent for a moment, then let go as if nothing had happened, and turned over, turning his back to him.
This was just a momentary gaffe, she thought coldly, she would not sympathize with this person - no matter how miserable and difficult the emperor was, he was always much better than her, and it was too late for her to sympathize with herself!
What's more, if the emperor is successful, it must be the time when she is cut into pieces.
She has no interest in using her wealth and life to fulfill the legend of a wise king.
While he was thinking, the emperor behind him seemed to have come to his senses. After a burst of rustling movement, he sighed softly.
Yun Fenghuang resisted the urge to turn over and observe his expression, or even make a few insinuations, and forced himself to fall asleep.
... When she got up, there was no one around her. Xile, who was called in to serve her, whispered to her: "Your Majesty left in the morning. Before leaving, he told the maids not to disturb you..."
Yun Fenghuang said "Hmm" and asked, "Where did he go?"
Xile said: "Your Majesty didn't say it, but..."
She pondered for a moment before saying, "Your Majesty said that your Majesty has suffered a lot of losses these days, so he asked you to stay in Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion to have a good life, and then go out after you are well."
This means that yesterday’s lockdown order in Luqintai still needs to be implemented
Yun Fenghuang sneered, thought for a moment, and asked Xile: "Serve me to dress up and have meals first, and invite Yun Ronghua over later... By the way, where is Yun Ronghua?"
Because she didn't regard herself as the Yun family's daughter at all - otherwise she would have almost missed the fact that her contribution could be used by the Yun family to offset her guilt - she didn't even care much about the Yun family sisters.
Although she had previously planned to overthrow Concubine Shu, adopt Yun Qingman's heir, and hijack the Yiguo Duke's palace, but... didn't this plan change quickly? The emperor moved so quickly that she could only seek Yi Xingen's heir first
As a result, when I was gathering the people in the palace yesterday, I was so focused on caring about Yi Xing'en's belly that I forgot that Yun Qingman wasn't even there!
At this moment, he couldn't help but frown slightly, "Where is Yun Ronghua now? Why didn't you come to see me yesterday?!"
