"Yes, yes." A Li was shaking all over, and the tragic scene of Xiao Meng's death suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
Concubine Li raised her chin and looked at her appearance carefully.
"Tsk, tsk, you look just average. His Majesty singled you out, so you must be something special."
Concubine Li's words reached Ali's ears, making Ali even more unable to control his body.
Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore and knelt down: "My dear concubine, please have mercy on me. My dear concubine, please have mercy on me. I am just a slave and I will always be a slave."
Seeing that she was so cowardly, Concubine Li also lost interest and turned to ask Little Eunuch Fang: "Where did you arrange her?"
"Reply to your Majesty, we have arranged it at Liufang Garden." When little Eunuch Fang said this, he knew that A Li was going to be in trouble.
There were several maids who had slept in the Qianyuan Palace before, but most of them were only granted symbolic honors.
This is the first person like A Li who has sealed his beloved.
Concubine Li thought for a moment and laughed: "Liufangyuan and Qingning Palace are not far apart. Eunuch Fang made this arrangement well. But she is a palace maid after all. It would be bad if she bumped into His Highness Prince Jing. It would be better to put her Let’s arrange to go to Evergreen Garden, that place is quiet and just right for her.”
Little Eunuch Fang wanted to say something else, but Concubine Li looked over with squinted eyes, so Little Eunuch Fang had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Concubine Li then walked in with satisfaction.
After following Little Eunuch Fang out of Qianyuan Palace, A Li couldn't help but ask, "Where is Changqing Garden?"
Little Eunuch Fang didn't want to hide it from her: "It's in the northwest, close to the Leng Palace."
"Leng Palace, isn't that the farthest away from Qianyuan Palace?" A Li cried out, and simply stopped leaving, muttering to himself, "I don't want to go to Leng Palace, I don't want to never see His Majesty. No! I want to Go back to His Majesty!"
Little Eunuch Fang was a little impatient. Why didn't he think A Li was so ignorant of current affairs before
"Come here, take Mr. Liang to Changqing Garden! There must be no mistake."
Half an hour later, Wen Qingzhu was teaching Goudan how to speak.
There were several footsteps outside the house.
Wen Qingzhu quickly asked Goudan to hide under the bed.
After a while, little father-in-law Fang came over with someone.
After opening the door, Wen Qingzhu looked at him in surprise: "Why are you here?"
Little Eunuch Fang backed away from the people who were following him and walked to the house where Wen Qingzhu lived. He glanced at the dilapidated environment and said with disgust: "Thank you so much for letting you live in such a place."
But Wen Qingzhu shook his head: "It's okay, it's quiet here, there's not much work, and I don't have to worry about bumping into noble people. I feel at ease."
Seeing her like this, and thinking of Ah Li's appearance just now, little Eunuch Fang couldn't help but say: "Master really did not misjudge the person. Although Mo'er is not as good as you, at least people can't fault her, unlike that Ah Li." Li, oops, no, now that I am Li’s beloved, I really think that I am the master now that I am on the dragon’s bed.”
Hearing his words, Wen Qingzhu noticed something unusual and hurriedly asked: "Eunuch Fang, what happened to Liangren?"
Only then did Little Fang's father-in-law tell him what happened just now.
Finally, he told Wen Qingzhu: "If you can persuade her, you'd better persuade her, but don't implicate yourself. I'm worried that if she doesn't stop, sooner or later Concubine Li will really put her in the cold palace. Don't implicate you then." .”
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "Thank you, father-in-law, for reminding me."
Little Eunuch Fang gave a bitter smile: "Sister Zhu'er, are you still polite to me? You helped me a lot back then. Master said that you can do things safely by yourself, and you can also bring others around you to be safe with you. I am Taking advantage of you."
"No, no, your master is the really powerful person." Wen Qingzhu thought of how many times in the past, she was almost discovered by Eunuch Fang, and she still has lingering fears.
"By the way, General Fu is coming back soon. Qianyuan Palace may be very busy by then. I heard from Master that His Majesty intends to transfer you back. When the opportunity comes, sister must seize it."
Xiao Fangzi told her seriously and secretly stuffed a bag of silver into her: "Keep this money for now. The court will make big moves when the time comes, and you might be able to follow along."
After thanking Xiao Fangzi, Wen Qingzhu sent him out of the yard.
Looking at the silver in his hand, Wen Qingzhu felt very complicated.
Master and apprentice Fang En were very kind to her, but she was not really Zhu'er.
Back in the house, Wen Qingzhu called Goudan out.
After the two of them sat down, Wen Qingzhu looked into his eyes seriously: "Sister, you may be able to return to your original identity in a few days. Your identity must also be made public. No matter what happens, you must remember that this palace No one can be trusted inside, you know?"
Goudan nodded nervously: "I know, I will only trust my sister from now on."
Wen Qingzhu wanted to say something else, but he felt that Goudan was still young and could say some things later.
Half a month later, Fu Lie's class returned to the court.
Jiang Yue personally went to the city gate to greet him.
Fu Lie, who had received the news early, saw the bright yellow figure in front of him, immediately got off his horse, walked quickly to Jiang Yue and knelt down in front of him.
"Your Majesty, I have fulfilled my mission and regained Youzhou!"
"Okay! Okay! Okay!" Jiang Yue's mood became better and better, he personally helped Fu Lie up, patted his shoulder and said, "I really did not misjudge the person."
Back in the palace, Jiang Yue held a celebration banquet.
All civil and military officials congratulated His Majesty on his return to the DPRK.
Jiang Yue was extremely happy and announced on the spot: "The Qi Dynasty has not had such a happy event for many years. I have decided to grant mercy and pardon the world!"
Everyone who had some information about this matter knew it well. The emperor's cronies, such as the current academicians and the prime minister, took the lead and congratulated Jiang Yue on regaining his territory.
After drinking three glasses of wine, Jiang Yue looked at Fu Lie and asked him to step forward and accept his order: "I promised you that if you come back victorious, I will grant you a marriage, but now that girl is not awake yet, I can compensate you in addition. , tell me, what do you want?"
Fu Lie knelt down on the spot: "Your Majesty, the recapture of Youzhou this time is not the result of Wei Chen alone. Wei Chen does not dare to ask for anything, but no matter what Qingzhu's current situation is, Wei Chen is willing to marry her and will only love her for the rest of his life. one person."
Jiang Yue was a little distressed and saw Jiang Dejia on the lower right.
He could see what his daughter was thinking when she came to inquire about Fu Lie a few days ago.
Now that Jiang Yue has decided to promote Concubine Hui, Jiang Dejia's status will naturally increase.
He looked at Fu Lie and asked: "If I betroth Dejia to you -"
Jiang Dejia, who had been paying attention to this place for a long time, felt his heart jump directly into his throat.
"Your Majesty!" Fu Lie suddenly raised his head, "The humble minister is just a rough guy and is really not worthy of Princess Dejia. Her golden branches and beautiful leaves are suitable for better people!"
After listening to Fu Lie's words, Jiang Dejia lowered her eyelids gloomily.
There was a sadness in his heart, Fu Lie really only liked Wen Qingzhu.
Jiang Yue raised his hand and said: "Wait a minute, I haven't finished speaking yet. What I mean is that even if you marry the princess, I am still willing to let you hold the military power without avoiding suspicion."
As soon as these words came out, the minds of all the civil and military officials present were confused.
For many years, anyone who married a princess, no matter how outstanding he was, was absolutely not allowed to enter the court and hold military power.
But now, the emperor is actually willing to make an exception for Fu Lie.
Even Princess Wuyang, who was once so famous, did not receive this kind of treatment.
Everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Fu Lie.
As long as he marries Princess Dejia, he will not only be the emperor's son-in-law, but also have the support of Concubine Hui and the Wei family.
The two Wei families who were once at odds with each other now have a tendency to get back together.
In addition, that weirdo Wei Feng came back and directly trained and taught several Wei family disciples.
The most conspicuous thing is Wei Yu, who protected Wen Qingzhu when he came in and out of the capital during the previous plague.
After Wen Qingzhu's accident, Wei Yu directly joined the Imperial Guard and served in front of the emperor.
In the past few days, Youzhou has been recovered, Fu Lie has returned, and Wei Yu has been promoted several levels in a row and has become a minor commander in the Forbidden Army, guarding the north gate.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the emperor wants to make important use of the Wei family. Once Fu Lie marries Jiang Dejia, it can be said that he will rise to the sky in one step and enjoy unparalleled glory.
There was silence in the banquet hall.
Everyone is waiting for Fu Lie's decision.
After Fu Lie entered the palace, he received a secret letter from Wen Qingzhu.
She said: Put Brother Fu's interests first in everything.
At this time, even if Fu Lie didn't agree directly and said that he needed to think about it temporarily, he was unwilling to let Wen Qingzhu have the slightest misunderstanding.
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen is deeply loved, but Wei Chen's heart belongs to someone, and I dare not say that he will remain loyal until death. At least for now, Wei Chen's heart is still firm."
Fu Lie refused, and many people sitting below breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Yue was slightly unhappy. Since he made the promise in front of all the civil and military officials, he naturally trusted him.
This side of Leng Palace.
Wen Qingzhu sat in the yard, watching the fireflies in summer, waving his fan in boredom.
I don’t know what Fu Lie would choose.
When Jasmine learned that Jiang Dejia went to find Jiang Yue, Wen Qingzhu knew that Jiang Dejia wanted to fight for a future for himself.
It's a pity that Jiang Dejia is destined to be disappointed.
Fu Lie is the most affectionate person.
There was a knock on the door of the courtyard, and Wen Qingzhu frowned.
If it were Goudan, he would come in directly. If it were Xiaofangzi, he wouldn't be so silent.
"Who?" Wen Qingzhu put down his fan and prepared the poison in his sleeve.
"It's me, Ali."
Wen Qingzhu's brows widened, she finally came to find him.
He stood up and opened the door. A Li was combing his hair in the bun that Concubine Hui often wore, and he looked a little bad.
Next to her, Zhuo'er held a lantern and lowered his head cautiously.
"What's the matter?" Wen Qingzhu turned around and went in.
A Li followed him in and looked around the courtyard, which was full of desolate weeds.
Even a corner of the small wooden table in the yard was broken.
After Wen Qingzhu sat down, he pointed to the chair opposite: "My dear, please sit down. I'm so broken that it's hard to boil hot water, so I won't entertain my dear."
Ah Li looked at the loose wooden stool and simply didn't want to sit down.
But now that she was coming to beg Wen Qingzhu, she could only endure it for the time being.
After sitting down, A Li took out a brocade box. After opening it, there was a pair of luminous stone earrings inside.
"This is a reward from His Majesty. I have inquired about it. The father-in-law in charge of the cold palace likes luminous stones very much. If you give this to him, you might help my sister get out of here."
Wen Qingzhu looked at the fluorescent earrings. They were not very precious, but they were jewelry made by Sigongtai and were rare to see outside.
The father-in-law in charge of the cold palace really likes this.
But soon, Wen Qingzhu raised his eyes: "My dear, please take it back. This thing is precious and may be used in the future. There is no need to waste it on a sinner like me."
A Li was anxious: "Sister Zhu'er! I mean it sincerely. General Fu has regained Youzhou and His Majesty has granted amnesty to the world. This is a good opportunity for my sister to return to Qianyuan Palace. When the time comes, we sisters will work together and wait for me to be promoted. I will definitely prepare a dowry for my sister so that she can return to her hometown in glory."
Hearing this, Wen Qingzhu laughed out loud and looked at A Li sympathetically.
She still couldn't figure out her current situation.
"My dear, my family doesn't like me. They almost sold me, so I entered the palace. I feel pretty good during the few months in this cold palace. It would be even better if I could retire here."
A Li looked at her in disbelief: "Don't you want to live a better life?"
