When I said this, Pei Yuanhao had just sat on the chair when Eunuch Yu brought the hot tea. When he heard me, he took the lid and fiddled with the tea, and stopped for a moment, then lowered his head and took a sip of the tea.
Then he said, "Why are you in a hurry to leave?"
"It was decided before, and it should be time for the end of this month."
"It's not that urgent yet."
"But--"
"No hurry," he continued to blow the tea leaves floating on the tea water and said slowly: "Let's talk about it when I finish dealing with what I see."
Having handled what's happening right now?
I listened and felt a little moved in my heart, but I didn't say anything. He didn't say anything to me anymore, and only talked to Pei Ji for a while. It could be seen that the relationship between the father and son was not very good, and there was actually a gap, but the scene could still be perfunctory. After about half an hour, he got up and left.
I also said goodbye.
As soon as I went out, I saw him walking slowly in front of me, naturally waiting for me. Eunuch Yu followed him. When he saw me going out, he immediately waved to me and asked me to go over, and then said to him with a smile: "Your Majesty, Miss Yan is also coming out."
"Um."
I rushed a few steps and walked behind him, and then Eunuch Yu and the others stepped back.
Pei Yuanhao didn't look back, but still walked in front with his hands behind his back, slowly saying, "I heard that when I was cultivating in Yihua Palace before, she once brought people to make things difficult for you?"
I paused for a moment before I realized that the "she" refers to Fang Zhijun.
So he said, "It's not a difficult situation. Lipin is worried about His Majesty's safety and is worried that I intend to harm His Majesty, so he brought someone to ask me for someone."
"Who do you think she is?"
“…not smart, but clever.”
“…”
"She is young, it's not a big deal."
"I'm not asking."
“…”
"Do you think she is such a strong person?"
strong?
In other words, when you are pregnant, you have to jump into the lake and stubbornly end your life.
I fell silent.
Pei Yuanhao stopped and looked back at me. I forced a smile: "I haven't been in the palace for a long time, and I don't get along with Lipin much. I really don't know if she is a strong person."
His face was slightly heavy, but he didn't lose his temper when he looked at me, but he turned around and continued to walk forward. I followed him a few steps and said softly: "Your Majesty, what happened to the west..."
He said without looking back: "I said, after dealing with the matter in front of you, you will set off again."
"What Your Majesty said about Lipin?"
“…”
"The first seven of Concubine Li's concubine has passed..."
"Today it's her disaster, and my child."
As soon as I heard him say "child", my voice fell down. After all, I didn't say anything, and just followed him quietly.
When I arrived at the place where I was about to split the road, I was hesitating to walk to Yuhua Palace, but I heard him say, "You don't go back, come with me."
I asked, "Where are you going?"
"Go to the lake and have a look."
“…”
By the lake?
|
With a hint of doubt, I followed him to the lake.
This place is more remote than the place where we often go to enjoy flowers. When we go there, we are close to the cold palace and almost no one comes.
After walking for a while, no one met.
The weather gradually became hotter. Although I was not as layered as those concubines, and I was sweating and not breathable, I felt so hot when I walked under the sun. When I approached the lake, I immediately felt a cool breeze blowing from the middle of the lake, which was very comfortable and comfortable.
I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He looked back at me, as if he felt something, so he gave Eunuch Yu a wink.
After a while, we walked to a pavilion by the lake. When we walked in, we saw two little eunuchs rushing out and then looked at the round table inside, and there was some refreshments on the round table inside.
Just now, he asked someone to prepare?
I was stunned. He had already walked over and sat down, and then said, "Let's take a break here."
I thanked me and walked in obediently.
As soon as I sat down, I felt the wind in the middle of the lake blowing with water, which was very cool and comfortable. The pavilion was built very laterally, with tall willow trees on both sides. The hanging branches and leaves formed a natural barrier, covering the pavilion tightly, and only the wind could blow in from outside.
But what did he do here?
And I looked around and immediately recognized that this place was not far from where Fang Zhijun was picked up that day.
Could it be that he wants-
My mood suddenly became nervous. I looked at him cautiously. Seeing that he had just held a bowl of tea, but didn't drink it, I was just looking at the layers of ripples blown by the wind on the lake.
The wind never stopped, gradually, the cooler became even more intense, and my fingertips became a little colder.
At this time, I heard a little eunuch running from a distance, running to the pavilion and saying something to Eunuch Yu. Eunuch Yu hurried in: "Master, someone is burning paper over there."
The palace cannot sacrifice to ghosts and gods at will, and burning paper money is explicitly prohibited. After hearing what Eunuch Yu said, Pei Yuanhao was not angry, but just lowered his head and took a sip of tea: "Catch it."
After Eunuch Yu got the order, he hurried out to command a few people.
The little eunuchs ran over, and soon they saw a group of people pushing and shoving over. They pushed the people they had caught to the edge of the pavilion. The eunuchs and palace maids were so scared that they didn't even dare to raise their heads. They could only kowtow on the ground, knocking and making a sound: "Your Majesty, please spare your life!"
"Your Majesty, I will never dare to do it again."
"emperor……"
I listened to their begging for mercy and looked down again. They were all people around Fang Zhijun.
Could it be that Pei Yuanhao came here to catch them?
I couldn't help but look back at him, but saw that he didn't look at them at all, but only focused on drinking his own tea. The Yu Eunuch next to me took a step forward and pointed at them and said, "What are you doing over there just now? Who asked you to burn paper money by the lake?!"
Those people were even more frightened. There was only one little palace maid who served Fang Zhijun in person. He said with courage: "Your Majesty, I have only served Concubine Li for the days. She left. I am sad. Today is the day when Concubine Li is back. I dared to come here to burn some paper money for her so that she can leave with peace of mind."
Eunuch Yu said angrily: "There have been rules in the palace that private sacrifices are not allowed. Besides, Lipin has been buried, and you are still here to burn paper money secretly. Do you have a ghost in your heart?"
When the people heard this, they were so scared that they were scattered and said in horror: "No, father-in-law, we don't!"
"We are just going to do our best to be a master and servant."
"Give me your life, spare me your life!"
