Remembrance Hibiscus GL

Outside the window, there is lush greenery and flowers, and there are occasional bird calls from the porch, but the house feels even quieter.Lian Zhen leaned on the back, staring blankly at the fiery red pomegranate flowers outside the window.In the past few days, except for the daily routine of going to the empress to pay her respects, she did not step out of the palace gate, and said very little, occasionally sitting in front of this window for a whole day.Baozhen remembered that night when she came back from Qingquan Palace, her eyes were red, and she felt very strange, but she didn't dare to ask anything, silently took the palace fan from the little palace maid, stood aside, and gently Fan her.

"Baozhen, do you have any wish?"

She frowned slightly, suddenly sighed softly, Baozhen suspected that she had heard wrong, the hand holding the fan couldn't help but pause: "Master asks the servant?"

"Ah."

Baozhen said with a smile: "I don't have any other wishes, the biggest wish is to serve the master forever and ever."

"You don't want to leave the palace? Don't you want to marry?"

Baozhen blushed: "Master, why did you ask this question? The servants have followed the master since they were children, and have never...never thought of leaving, let alone marrying."

"It's normal for people to get together and part. You can't stay with me in this palace forever." Lian Zhen looked at her, shook her head slightly, but her eyes gradually dimmed: "It's just that if you have any wish, I'll let you go." I can fulfill it for you, but no one can fulfill my wish."

"Master, how do you talk about these things so well today?" Bao Zhen was astonished, completely confused: "Now that you are favored by the emperor, why can't things go your way?"

"Maybe, I should have a child." Lian Zhen's voice was extremely soft, but she turned her head away slowly, and said in a raving voice for a long time, "I'm afraid, I'm afraid, this life will be too lonely."

The first half of her sentence made Baozhen happy, but the last few sentences were incomprehensible. Baozhen opened her mouth and was about to speak, when Hengbo suddenly brought a tray in with a smile, and said: "Master, this is the emperor. The ones that have just been rewarded are grapes and honeydew melons from Cheqian Kingdom, let the master taste it."

"Well." Lian Zhen responded, and said casually: "Let's put it aside."

Hengbo put the two agate plates on a few tables respectively, and said with a smile: "The father-in-law who sent it told me in a low voice that it was sent all the way from the Western Regions to the capital. It is extremely rare and precious, except for the empress and imperial concubine, only we have it."

Baozhen put aside what happened just now, and her face became bright: "It can be seen that the emperor is thinking of the master everywhere."

Lianzhen turned her head slightly, and she saw that the grapes were different from the usual ones. The drops were round, the color was gorgeous, and the precious light was crystal clear. The honeydew melon was even more fleshy, sweet and attractive. , and said: "Take some and send it to Rou Gui."

"Yes."

Hengbo smiled and agreed, and was about to send someone to send it away, but the little maid Yixue came in and said: "Return to the master, Mrs. Mei is out to see you."

Before Lian Zhen could answer, Bao Zhen raised her brows: "What is she doing here? Does she think she has hurt us enough? She still has the face to come here!"

Lian Zhen looked calm, pondered for a while, and closed the book: "Call her in."

Hengbo wanted to speak out to dissuade him: "Master..."

Lian Zhen said lightly: "It's okay, she can't make any trouble now."

Hengbo had no choice but to say nothing, but Baozhen still looked angrily, Hengbo gave her a wink, and she had no choice but to restrain her expression.But hearing the sound of footsteps approaching from far away, Mu Feiyu had already entered, walked up to Lianzhen timidly and saluted: "Blessings, Concubine Lian."

Lian Zhen raised her eyelids, looked at her without any trace, and saw that she was wearing a plain dress, with a few emeralds on her hair, although she had put on a lot of makeup, she still couldn't conceal the haggard look on her face, her heart ached. Knowing that she will have a hard time these days, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Your Majesty Mei, don't be too polite, just sit down."

But Mu Feiyu still stood there, with lowered eyebrows, pleading: "I want to have a few words with the empress alone, can the empress agree?"

Lian really thought about it, and said to Hengbo: "You guys go out first." Baozhen's lips moved, as if to dissuade her, but Hengbo secretly pulled her hand, and then went down with a few young ladies.

Lian Zhen dusted off her clothes, and said slowly: "Mr. Mei, what do you want to say to me?"

Mu Feiyu looked at her and said sadly: "Lianzhen, can we still be called sisters like before?"

"Sister?" Lian really smiled, "Mr. Mei, I don't think so."

"Lianzhen, I know you are blaming me, but when I was in pain that day, my mind was no longer clear, and you appeared at that time, which caused me to misunderstand." Mu Feiyu's eyes were full of remorse, and she suddenly knelt down Then, with tears in his eyes, he said: "Now, I know that you have been wronged, and I beg you to forgive me for the sake of the past friendship and the pain of the wound I suffered."

"You were not sober that day, are you still not sober afterwards? When I was imprisoned in the Meditation Palace, did you see the past friendship?" Lian Zhen looked at her, her tone was normal, but her eyes gradually became cold: "Poor Zhurui, she followed me when she was young, and she didn't have a good day after entering Beijing, so she was killed like this."

Mu Feiyu hurriedly defended: "Lianzhen, I didn't know about Zhurui's matter until a long time later, that... that has nothing to do with me..."

"I know that has nothing to do with you." Lian Zhen interrupted her, and said with a sneer: "You just wanted to pull me away from the emperor, you were plotted against and lost your child, so you took the opportunity to drag me into the water. With your cleverness, how could you not have imagined that the one who can plot against your unborn child must be an important person in the harem? If the emperor can catch the real culprit, then of course it is good, if not, I will be the scapegoat, you Getting rid of a thorn in your side can also relieve some grief, can't it?"

Seeing her speak so directly, Mu Feiyu was stunned, his face turned pale immediately, he wanted to defend a few words, but he couldn't argue, and for a long time, he whispered: "Lianzhen, I'm always confused..."

"I never knew that jealousy is such a terrible thing." Lianzhen smiled, stretched out her hand to pick up a grape from the plate, and slowly put it into her mouth. Both the grape and the melon were iced and sweet. Juicy and refreshing, Lianzhen ate two, and Fang said slowly: "But you don't have to be afraid, I don't hate you very much, and I haven't thought of revenge on you for the time being."

When Mu Feiyu saw that she revealed his reason for coming, he felt relieved, but at the same time couldn't believe it, and knelt there in a daze.Lianzhen took a look at her: "Not only do I not hate you, but also thank you for letting me fall like this, which made me feel the danger of the human heart." Then, she subconsciously stroked the bracelet on Hao's wrist : "It also made me feel something that is very precious to me."

Seeing the emperor waking up, Zhao Chengen hurriedly gave out the signal, and the eunuchs who were in charge of the clothes and the bedroom filed in. After the emperor changed his clothes and washed, Zhao Chengen combed his hair and tied the golden crown for him.

The emperor suddenly said: "Prince Ying has been running to the palace every day these days, has the concubine's illness worsened?"

Seeing the question, Zhao Chengen replied cautiously: "If the emperor doesn't ask, the servants dare not answer. I heard from the imperial doctor that this time is probably not very good."

The emperor thought for a while, then said softly: "Let's drive to Funing Palace, I'll go and see her."

"Yes."

A group of eunuchs and maids, holding all kinds of utensils, surrounded the emperor's shoulders, meandering towards the Funing Palace. When they reached the gate of the palace, the emperor signaled to stop the sedan chair and ordered the rest to wait in place. Following the eunuch, he helped Zhao Cheng'en's hand and walked in, only to turn around the screen wall, just in time to bump into the imperial concubine, the imperial concubine was stunned, bowed down and saluted: "The concubine has seen the emperor."

"Get up." With a smile on his lips, the emperor leaned over to help her up himself: "Binglun, I went to see you the day before yesterday, and Qinzhu said that you fell asleep, so I won't bother you."

The imperial concubine said: "The concubine didn't know, and neglected the emperor, and asked the emperor to forgive me."

"I told Qinzhu not to tell you, so what's the crime?" The emperor sized her up carefully, frowned and said, "Binglun, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you've lost a little more." The imperial concubine lowered her head Without speaking, the emperor said displeasedly: "I heard that since Zong Hui came to you twice a while ago, you are always depressed, Zong Hui is too ignorant, and you have to go to the palace to say anything. Knowing it with you is too ignorant."

"Your majesty, it's none of her business." The imperial concubine said softly: "My brother's matter is probably known to everyone in the capital, no one is ignorant."

The Great Yan Dynasty had a very important family background, and the emperor also knew that Huo Song's actions had caused jokes among the princes and nobles in the court, and humiliated the Huo family, so he had to hold her hand and comforted her softly: "The man is looking for some women outside. , it’s nothing, you don’t need to worry about it, even if you really marry into the door, it’s just a concubine.”

The imperial concubine bit her lips and said in a low voice: "I'm just worried about my father, he has already fallen ill because of this matter."

"Don't worry, I have sent the imperial physician to see him, and I will give him medicine later." The emperor patted her hand and said with a smile: "The old general has been in the battlefield for many years, and his body is as strong as a young man's." , this little ailment is nothing serious."

"The concubine first thanked the emperor on behalf of his father."

"Did you go to see the concubine just now? How is she?"

The imperial concubine said truthfully: "The concubine's illness has been repeated for several months. Although the imperial physician has carefully diagnosed and treated it, it is only a prolonged period of time."

"Hmm." The emperor replied with a thoughtful expression.

"emperor."

A soft call brought him back to his senses, the imperial concubine looked at him, and suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I was thinking, last time you proposed to let the concubine raise the second prince, the concubine... the concubine is really not good. Should refuse."

"Why?" The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, watching her: "Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

"Since the concubine was ill, she has been unable to teach and discipline the second prince. Now the second prince's daily life and food are all taken care of by a few nuns and inner eunuchs. It seems that there is something wrong with the concubine. This is one of them. The concubine has recently passed away. Yongfu Palace has been around a lot, and I have had more contact with the second prince. I think that although he is young, he is smart, cute, and likable. The second is. Therefore, the ministers and concubines boldly asked the emperor to raise the second prince. In Qingquan Palace, the ministers and concubines have no children, so they will definitely treat him as their own in the future."

The emperor pondered for a while, and said, "Let me think about this matter again."

"Yes." The imperial concubine didn't say much, and bowed again: "The concubine will leave first."

Serving tea, serving medicine, welcoming and seeing off the concubines or imperial physicians in the harem, the people of Funing Palace entered and exited in an orderly manner. Seeing the arrival of the holy chariot, the inner eunuch was busy singing a report, the emperor waved his hand to stop him, and asked the concubine to accompany him The eunuch: "Why is it so quiet? Is the concubine asleep?"

The eunuch hurriedly replied: "The concubine took the medicine before, the imperial concubine came to see it, and the prince of England always comes to pay her respects at this time, so the concubine is not asleep yet, it's just..."

The emperor said impatiently, "Just what?"

"It's just that the Empress Dowager has been seriously ill for a while, and sometimes her mind will be a little confused. It's good for the emperor to have a solid foundation in his heart."

The emperor didn't say anything else, and took Zhao Chengen into the palace. The empress dowager was happy and quiet. Although it was a scorching summer, the floor was still covered with thick carpets, and people stepped on it silently. , calling softly: "Mother Concubine, I'm here to see you."

Concubine Zhaohui opened her eyes, looked at the handsome figure outside the tent, and said weakly: "Mouer, you don't need to comfort me with kind words every day, as a mother, I know that my time is approaching, but... It's just that I really can't worry about you for my mother's sake."

The emperor was stunned, the concubine had stretched out a trembling hand from the tent, the emperor hesitated for a moment, stretched out his hand to hold it, and before he could speak, the concubine Zhaohui was crying, He said with difficulty: "Mou'er, you have to remember your mother's words, you can be a prince of peace and enjoy the honor in peace, the emperor... the emperor has a suspicious temperament, and the brotherhood is very weak, no matter how harsh he treats you, you will not Don't show any dissatisfaction, but... remember the lessons learned by King Rong."

Zhao Chengen stood not far away, hearing these words, his heart couldn't help beating.The emperor's expression remained unchanged. After listening quietly, he said softly: "I already know the last wish of my mother and concubine. Don't worry, my concubine, I will definitely treat Zongmou well."

"Emperor... Your Majesty..." The concubine yelled in horror, her voice became so hoarse that she could no longer speak, the emperor slowly let go of her hand, and said with a smile: "Concubine mother, take good care of me!" Come on, I will come to see you some other day."

"Your Majesty." The concubine tightly grasped the gauze curtain, and let out a desperate voice from her throat. The emperor clearly heard it, but his footsteps did not stop at all, and he went straight out of the palace.

Zhao Chengen was very careful and followed the emperor closely. The emperor suddenly stopped in the courtyard in front of the hall and turned to look at him. Zhao Chengen was terrified and hurriedly said: "The slave didn't hear a single word that the empress dowager and the emperor said just now."

"Hmph." The emperor snorted softly from his nose, Zhao Chengen's face turned pale with fright, the emperor's expression was cloudy, but he didn't say anything more after all.As soon as the emperor stepped out of the palace gate of Funing Palace, he saw Liang Quan coming up to him profusely in sweat, and knelt down with a plop: "There is an urgent report from the border. Lord Shoufu and Lord Sima of the Ministry of War are waiting for the emperor to summon you at Changle Palace. I also ask the emperor to return to the palace quickly."

The emperor's heart sank slightly, knowing that something serious must have happened, but he didn't ask any more questions, and immediately went to Jianyu.

Back at Changle Palace, Wen Tianhe and Sima Hu were waiting there, the emperor sat down on the throne with a calm demeanor, gently stroking the emerald ring on his thumb, Fang slowly said: "What's going on?" ?”

Wen Tianhe and Sima Hu glanced at each other, knelt down and played: "Your Majesty, General Yuchi was ordered by the Emperor to resist Tuyuhun, killed the enemy bravely, and regained most of the lost city, but Deli Zanpu secretly helped Tuyuhun, the day before yesterday Suddenly, a large army attacked our barracks. Fuluo Khan personally led his army to the rear of our army, burned all our food and grass, and formed a pincer attack with the Tubo army from the south. The army was annihilated, and General Yuchi himself was captured by Tuyuhun, the situation is extremely urgent, please let the emperor show you."

His voice was low and mournful, and he was already in tears as he spoke, and he kowtowed on the gold brick floor. Sima Hu, Minister of the Ministry of War, walked forward on his knees without saying a word, and held the report above his head.

There seemed to be sparks in the emperor's eyes, and the silence was so frightening. After a long while, he reached out and took the roll of paper from Sima Huo. Suddenly, he gritted his teeth and roared: "Delizamp, hello to you, Delizamp!"
