calm to light

Chapter 12

Zhen Huan got the emperor's attention without warning at all, and she was even promoted to the position before going to bed. The attention in the harem suddenly turned to Suiyuxuan. Thanks to Zhen Huan's concern for going in and out of Broken Yuxuan, Sister Mei and I didn't join the line of idlers.

Zhen Huan's favor is inevitable, but coincidentally coincides with my own dream, I feel somewhat unnatural.This kind of knowledge of the future, which is both true and false, although I can only remember the "Zhen Huan Biography" in the dream clearly, but I still feel uncomfortable. There is an illusion of confusion between the dream and the reality. Is it the dream or the reality? wake up.But I didn't think about it for long. After hearing about Zhen Huan's happy event, sister Mei, who was overjoyed, came to my palace and took me to Broken Yuxuan with rare excitement.

Zhen Huan was ill a while ago and suffered a lot of grievances. Mei Zhuang has always felt distressed. Now that Zhen Huan is favored, it seems that the pain is not in vain. She is really happy.As for me, I originally planned to be the most common concubine in the palace. I didn't value the imperial favor, so I didn't feel jealous.I just admire Mei Zhuang's generosity, she was favored first, Zhen Huan's promotion will somewhat share her emperor's favor, she can still plan for Zhen Huan in this way, such a pure heart makes me jealous of Zhen Huan's good luck Yes, there is such a sincere sister.

From a distance, we saw wave after wave of people presenting rewards in front of the gate of Broken Yuxuan, but they were all stopped by Xiao Yunzi, who just handed in the things and left without any energy.Mei Zhuang and I wanted to stand aside and wait for fewer people to come in, but we didn't want Xiao Yunzi to be sharp-eyed, so he quickly greeted us, and the new official took office three fires. He managed such a scene really well, too. Well organized.

It is true that people are in good spirits on happy occasions, Zhen Huan's complexion is very good, and her sickness is swept away.When we went in, she was playing with the long flute given by the emperor, she seemed to be thinking of something from time to time, she was smiling like a flower, and she was shy like a little daughter, maybe she was moved by the emperor Hongluan.When Meizhuang saw her, she teased her a few words. A woman who is moved by spring has a thin skin. She is usually eloquent, but she can't say that Meizhuang is not good enough. She just asked Jinxi to put away the flute and greeted us to sit down.

Mei Zhuang didn't say much, seeing the drastically changed decorations in Zhen Huan Palace and the unreceived rewards, he smiled reassuringly, "Finally, I'm a face saint, now I don't have to worry about you being angered by others for nothing. It's just that you quietly sealed the nobleman, even Rong'er and I, you should be punished."

"That's right," I accepted Mei Zhuang's gaze, and said, "If it wasn't for Mr. Su who is next to the emperor to deliver the decree, Sister Mei and I would have thought it was a rumor."

Zhen Huan seemed a little aggrieved, but at the same time she seemed to think of something even more embarrassing, "I didn't know that it was the emperor I met in the imperial garden, and this noble man was appointed for no apparent reason."

"You are dissatisfied with the blessing that so many people are looking forward to." Mei Zhuang said, "But you have been promoted, and I don't know how many people are staring at you."

When Mei Zhuang said this, Zhen Huan was overjoyed and worried, and I couldn't help but say, "Sister will be favored sooner or later, and now the emperor cares so much about you. The decree is to avoid disturbing people, although this thought is small, it shows that the emperor treats the elder sister unusually, the harem is afraid and can't hide from the left and right, the elder sister has the emperor to take care of her, so don't worry too much."

"That's right," Mei Zhuang continued, "The emperor demoted Yu Shi for you, and it can be regarded as a lesson for everyone in the harem, so you don't have to be afraid."

"I know, let's not talk about me anymore," Zhen Huan looked at me and said, "Your illness is fine, and you have been recuperating for a long time, but you can sleep with me."

Asking me this question all of a sudden, I can't express how I feel.I didn't look forward to the servant, nor did I want to avoid the servant. Although I was against this kind of favor that was almost a physical transaction, I also understood that if I wanted to live an ordinary and better life, I couldn't touch the favor. There is no escaping the bedtime.Seeing that I kept my head down and didn't speak, Mei Zhuang knew the situation, thought I was sad, and comforted me, "The emperor doesn't come to the harem for many days, even if he comes, he won't go to Concubine Hua and some favored concubines, Ronger don't Think about it, maybe it will be you in a few days."

"I don't care, just let nature take its course. It's just that what Sister Mei said is wrong, it should be Sister Wan in a few days!" After I said this, Zhen Huan felt ashamed again, and Mei Zhuang calmed down and helped make fun of her , when the three of them were having fun, Bao Juan ran in with a happy expression on his face, and when he saw me, he said, "My lord, I'm very happy, the emperor has appointed me to sleep with my lord today."

The news came too suddenly and at the wrong time. Fortunately, Mei Zhuang was just surprised, but Zhen Huan's face darkened, her expression was complicated, and I felt heavy when I saw her change.It was supposed to make most people happy, but now it sweeps away the original lightheartedness and joy in the room, and instead depresses the atmosphere. In the end, Meizhuang smiled and helped me up, and sent me out of Broken Yuxuan. If you want to tell me something, let Bao Juan wait for me in front with the maid who came out with me, "Rong'er, don't worry about Huan'er, she just fell in love with the emperor, and she heard that you were going to bed, it's inevitable It will be a little bit more mindful, it is a good thing that you can sleep, she will think about it after a while, so you can relax and go back and get ready."

I can understand Zhen Huan's reaction, she is like this, it's not that she doesn't care about her sisterhood, so she can't see me getting the emperor's favor before her.It's just that she herself is in love with the emperor's concubine, it's not like Mei Zhuang has had a period of time to adjust her mentality, and it's inevitable that she can't accept that the person who was sweet to her just now turned her back on another woman, even if she knows that she is in love with her Human beings are the least likely emperors to exclusively have concubines in the harem, but it is also difficult to accept. "Sister Mei, this bedtime visit is not what I want." Although I need a bedside visit to lay the foundation for fading out of the harem to compete for favor, if I hadn't become the emperor's woman, it would be impossible for me not to be feared and forgotten.But at such an embarrassing time, let me be favored, and there is no such thing as a single case. Not to mention anything else, Zhen Huan will inevitably have bumps on Hungry Oh.

Seeing what I said, and seeing the helplessness on my face, Mei Zhuang couldn't help sighing when he thought of Zhen Huan in the room, "I will explain to Huan'er, Rong'er, this opportunity really came too suddenly and inopportunely." , But, it’s a blessing, not a curse, a disaster can’t be avoided, you should prepare well.” Mei Zhuang sent me to the door, and planned to go back to accompany Zhen Huan, but when she turned around, I couldn’t help but hold her back Looking at her doubtful face, she murmured, "Do you...do you want me to sleep with you...?" Yes, do you have a grudge like Zhen Huan, or are you like As happy for Zhen Huan as happy for me?Compared with Zhen Huan, I care more about your opinion who always took good care of me when I was sick.

Holding my hand holding her, Mei Zhuang didn't look at me, but stared at the sweet-scented osmanthus in the Broken Yuxuan, his gaze drifted far away, "I don't want to lie to you, I'm also jealous and a little unhappy, But it's not because of you, and I won't blame you. I know that the emperor is not dedicated, on the contrary, he loves one when he sees one." Her words were full of loneliness, and there was also a little bit of resentment towards the emperor. If it's someone else, if I don't mind blaming the blame, why don't I live?" She turned to look at me with a gentle and cute smile, "Sooner or later someone will share the favor, I'm so glad it's you and Huan'er, there are so many in the palace People, I can only trust you. If you are in my heart, I don’t have to worry about other people’s plotting and I can get some benefits from it, don’t I? Well, don’t think too much, go back and prepare, and don’t be nervous. Although the emperor Passionate but also gentle, I'm waiting to get your light." In the last sentence, she meant something, but she said it seriously and sincerely, but I blushed with shame, but I also let go of my heart.Meizhuang, she must not know how beautiful and touching her gentle smile is, let me know that she will not be dissatisfied with me because of it, so that I can face the next bedtime with peace of mind.

On the way back, I wondered why the emperor called me to sleep after meeting Zhen Huan, "Baojuan, do you know why the emperor called me to sleep?" I asked casually, but I didn't want Baojuan to really know, " The servant girl heard that it was the empress who reminded me that the young master is fine and has entered the palace for a long time and has not yet met the saint."

It's the queen, it's such a handsome move, if I am full of love, I will definitely accept her kindness and be grateful to her, even if I don't appreciate it, this move will create a gap between Zhen Huan and me.Now I just hope that Mei Zhuang can take care of Zhen Huan, but the emperor is also ugly, I don't know if he really cares about Zhen Huan as the outside world says, and is he willing to suffer such grievances for Zhen Huan? "The queen has a heart." I blurted out.

Unexpectedly, Bao Juan said, "The empress has always valued the young master very much. Today, the young master can be favored before the young master Wan. It is not because of the empress."

I think the way I looked at Baojuan must be very weird, but the girl didn't seem to notice, she thought she said it very well, "Yes, thanks to the empress." She obviously spoke for the empress, but I have Somewhat doubted whether Baojuan was helping the queen with her work, her flaws were too obvious, and she was so low-level that it was a bit suspicious.However, this is something only a queen can do and she is willing to do it.

It's just that at that time, I didn't expect that I had wrongly blamed the queen, and the real one who could make the decision was always the emperor who was passionate and indifferent.

···················································································… , "Huan'er, this is something you have to accept sooner or later, you have to think about it."

Zhen Huan knew that her performance just now was too wrong, regardless of whether she hurt Ling Rong or not, she seemed immature, but she was really uncomfortable. Could it be that the person who cared for her so much and only looked at her was a dream?Can't even maintain the truth for a moment? "Sister Mei, I feel bad. Could it be that I'm just pretending to be passionate?" She knew that the only thing in her life was extravagant hope, but he couldn't even be single-minded for a moment?

Mei Zhuang felt distressed when he saw the sad and bewildered expression of his sister who had been friends with him for the first time, "Huan'er, have you ever thought that Rong'er is acting suspiciously in bed at this time? Gong Lai has not been able to attend bedtime, and now that he is recovering from illness, there is indeed a great chance to accompany him, but the emperor has not come to the harem for a long time, if not reminded by others, he would never have known that Rong'er was able to serve bedtime."

Mei Zhuang's words awakened Zhen Huan, and also gave Zhen Huan an acceptable reason. Normally, she must understand that this is just deceiving herself, but now, she is just a simple girl in love, and she lacks too much wisdom, "Sister It means that someone did it on purpose, so it wasn't the emperor's original intention, right?" It was just hindering the rules and the duty of the emperor, she should understand.At that time, Zhen Huan even forgot that it was against the rules for the emperor to promote her as a nobleman, and she felt that it was because the emperor had to be scruples for his own breaking the rules, and recruited Mausoleum, who had never been a servant in the harem, to protect the harem. peaceful.Thinking about it this way, she didn't feel so sad.

Looking at Zhen Huan like this, Mei Zhuang thought of himself when he met the emperor for the first time. Huan'er might really fall into such a man, but compared to himself, Huan'er still has a single-minded fantasy. , adding more pain, involuntarily, she indulged Zhen Huan's rare superficiality, "Well, it wouldn't be the emperor's original intention." It was not the original intention, but it was also pleasing, after all, no one can force the emperor.But, who is playing tricks to drive a wedge between their friendship?Only concubine Hua and the queen in the palace can persuade the emperor. Concubine Hua is jealous and doesn't have the courage to push the emperor to others.Mei Zhuang couldn't think of who to be wary of for a while, but seeing that Zhen Huan's attention was not on this at all, forget it. After all, Huan'er won't really hurt her relationship with Rong'er. up.

As soon as I got back to the palace, Cui Si greeted me excitedly, looked at me with bright eyes that almost flashed, and ran to me before remembering the rules, and hurriedly made a four-faced salute, watching Baojuan frowned, the girl didn't see other people's faces, but seeing me smiling faintly, she was eager to say something that made her so happy, "Congratulations, little master, I can finally sleep with you." She was happy It looks as if she has this kind of honor herself. Cuisi couldn't hide her thoughts at first, and then I deliberately spoiled her. She has no taboos when speaking in front of me, and she can say whatever she thinks, "Now the little girl The Lord will not be bullied."

"Cuisi." After all, such words are easy to cause trouble, but maybe he is happy in his heart. Baojuan didn't say a few words to Cuisi as usual, but just called out to divert her attention, "Let the young master be at the door No matter what it looks like standing there, you still haven’t been welcomed in.”

That girl had a simple mind, so she embraced me happily.Thanks to having such a girl by my side, I feel that life in the palace can be warm.When I entered the house, I saw that almost all the furnishings in my palace had changed. Among other things, I had a large handful of imperial golden lamps that would not come here on weekdays, and the imperial dining room also sent them. The Dong'e Ejiao and other valuable supplements are also piled high, heh, I am really flattered by this kind of treatment.Such good things were delivered to me one after another before going to bed. I couldn't help but think that if I really, like in a dream, because of timidity and nervousness, offended Long Yan, and returned to Zhao without precedent, how would those people treat me? I?Serving the bed, whether it is a blessing or a curse for me, I really can't see through it, I just hope that I can try my best to avoid disadvantages.

It was late, and Madam Liu, who was sleeping in the palace, took me to bathe and change clothes according to the rules.Although I hate bathing in front of people without privacy at all, I can't refuse others to clean me like a dead thing, even my private parts.I feel like a piece of fish on a chopping board, let others make it into what they think is the best. Although I feel disgusted in my heart, I can’t show it on my face. I even have to disguise the stiffness of my body when others touch me. Into a shy performance, so as not to gossip.The maids wiped the sesame oil on me nimbly. It is said that it is the emperor’s favorite smell, but when I asked, it was very pungent and made me dizzy. The Liu mother next to me gave me some lectures on how to do bedtime. It's something to pay attention to. Compared with some modern ones, it doesn't make me shy. It's just that there are too many people around me listening, and I am less uncomfortable as a person in it.

Finally came the last process, the eunuchs who were going to transport me to the emperor's bedroom also came, I thought they were going to roll me into spring rolls and send them to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but I didn't want Mammy Liu to go out first and come back soon , holding a bowl of decoction in his hand, he looked at me with sympathy, "My lord, this is the decoction rewarded by the emperor."

Soup?Why would the emperor reward some decoction at this time?My doubts were quickly resolved, because I asked about the unique musk smell in the soup, musk can abort, and I didn't even have a bed, so the function of this bowl of medicine is contraception.I don't know what kind of mood I was in when I ended up taking the soup, and I don't know what kind of expression I drank that cup of bitter medicine, but the mother Liu next to me was probably surprised at my calmness, thanked me for my cooperation, and said Said, "The emperor is afraid that the young master's body is not well yet, so he gave the soup and medicine to let the young master take care of his body."

Hearing this, I couldn't help laughing, this is probably the best joke I've ever heard, it made my heart twitch with joy.He loves me?I'd rather believe that he is a mother who loves her child and has a small family, so she will lose face.After all, I still have some self-knowledge.The real heartache is probably like that for Zhen Huan. If she is not in good health, he will not move for a day.However, this kind of grace is not enjoyed by everyone.

In the end, I didn't feel anything at all, so I let them wrap me up in a quilt at will, as numb as if the person being carried away by the eunuch wasn't me.It's just that maybe the bowl of medicine is too strong, and the prickling pain in the stomach is a little uncomfortable.

That's fine, just take a nap, treat it as the safest one-night stand, in exchange for the ordinary you want.
