Story of Yanxi Palace: Red Seal Spring Star

Pearl opened the two doors and saw Huo Jizhan and Xiao Quanzi inside, but Concubine Rong was nowhere to be seen.Yingluo asked Xiao Quanzi what was going on.Xiao Quanzi told her that he was holding the token, and Concubine Rong told the two guards in Huiyu, saying that Master Fu Heng told them to follow Concubine Rong in and wait. The two guards would not let the man in, but they saw it The concubine seemed to be ill, and Xiao Quanzi and Huo Jizhan were also returning, so they agreed.Just now Fu Heng came in to ask Concubine Rong, and made Concubine Rong pretend to be unconscious, then called two guards in from the door, sent Concubine Rong out through the door over there, and signaled himself and Huo Jizhan to wait for Yingluo here.

Yingluo nodded, and led the two of them back to the big chapel. After the emperor left, the heavy troops withdrew, and the four of them left the mosque together with the flow of people.Huo Jizhan saluted Yingluo in return and said a few words. Yingluo smiled at him, and he smiled calmly, then turned around and quickly disappeared into the night market.Yingluo looked at his back as he went away, and suddenly thought of a sentence in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" that she had been reading for the past two days: The Yangtze River rolls to the east, the waves wipe out the heroes, and success or failure turns heads to nothing.Suddenly understood why he came to see Concubine Rong.

The emperor left the mosque, Li Yu was waiting by the door, the emperor bid farewell to the Hui elder, asked Fu Heng to kneel down, and went to Baoyue Tower to see Concubine Rong.Fu Heng gave Yue Bu a few more instructions at the door. He saw the emperor's sedan chair entered the outer gate of Baoyue Tower across the street, and then returned to Chunshu Alley. After walking a short distance to the east, he was about to call a car when he heard someone call " Master", I saw Yingluo standing in front of a night market stall, wearing the white cloak she gave her, smiling at him.

He also walked forward with a smile, and said: "Why are you in the temple today and still dressed like this?"Yingluo didn't answer, and asked Xiao Quanzi to go back first with Pearl and the carriage guards, and took Fu Heng's arm by herself, saying: "Master, let's go for a stroll outside before going back."Fu Hengdao: You and I dressed like this?Fu Heng was wearing court clothes, and Yingluo was wearing back clothes, which looked really strange. Yingluo smiled and said: "Anyway, no one knows us."

Although the weather is still cold, the night market is bustling and lively.The two walked for a while, bought a baked sweet potato for Yingluo, and went to Zuiyuelou, the largest restaurant on Chang'an Avenue.The two of them attracted everyone's attention as soon as they entered the door. Yingluo held Fu Heng in one arm and ate roasted sweet potatoes in the other. She raised her face deliberately. With a smile, he said to the guy who came up to greet him: I want an elegant room.

Just as the clerk was about to lead the two of them upstairs, he saw two people coming down the stairs, and they both cupped their hands at Fu Heng and said, "Master Fu Heng."Fu Heng saw that one of these two people was Wang Youdun and the other was Yaerhashan, and he also cupped his hands and said: Mr. Jin Tang, Lord Yaerhashan.Then Yingluo introduced: This is my wife.

Yingluo blushed, immediately hid the roasted sweet potato behind her back, and blessed the two of them, and they both hurriedly replied: "I have seen Madam."They had seen the woman next to Fu Heng a long time ago, and the two of them were very close. They just saw her wearing a back dress, covering her face, showing a pair of big black and white eyes, and behaving casually. They didn't expect that this was Fu Heng's newlywed wife.Wang Youdun was more than twenty years older than Fu Heng. Seeing Yingluo's appearance as a pretty little girl, he thought to himself that they were young couples, so he couldn't help but smile.

Yalhashan was also much older than Fu Heng, and thought: Mr. Fu Heng returned to Xinjiang in a big victory, and brought back Concubine Rong for the emperor. It turns out that he himself likes this return style. He is really a family of uncle and brother-in-law!He said to Fu Heng: "The emperor called out early today, so the officials invited Mr. Liu and Mr. Wang to sit here. Mr. Liu said he had something to do at home and didn't come."Fu Heng looked at Yalhashan and nodded.It was also the first time for Yingluo to meet these two important military officials. She saw that Wang Youdun was a scholar and became a Confucian, while Yalha was sharp and straightforward.

After the two said goodbye, Yingluo ate the roasted sweet potatoes in one bite. The two followed the waiter upstairs and sat in an elegant room. The table was placed by the window, and they could see the bustling night market below. Fu Heng whispered in her ear: Doesn't it mean that no one knows us?Yingluo wanted to hit him, but the man was on the sidelines, so it was difficult to strike. Fu Heng smiled triumphantly, and stretched out his hand to untie the cloak for her.The two sat down, ordered food, and served tea. Only then did Yingluo tell Fu Heng everything that happened this afternoon in detail, and finally said: I thought it was really impossible, so I will reveal my identity. Who dares to embarrass me and them? ?Who knows the emperor will come.Fu Heng pondered for a long time, and only told Yingluo to pay attention to safety and stop taking such risks. If he hadn't followed the emperor to the mosque today, the matter might not have ended well.

Yingluo had done such a big event today, and she was in a good mood, knowing that he was always cautious, and said: "Yes, yes, what the young master said is true!"Yingluo must pay attention next time!Fu Heng looked at her, and said softly: That person in the temple bumped into you, are you okay?Yingluo looked at him in surprise, and said: So you saw me a long time ago?Fu Heng smiled and nodded: Of course.Yingluo said: Why?So many people!Fu Heng looked at her silently, and Yingluo also looked at herself, but didn't see anything.Fu Hengdao: Your earrings.

Yingluo took off her earrings, only to find that they were ordinary Hui earrings with a ring of small silver stones inlaid on them.Fu Hengdao: This earring is inlaid with amphibole from Persia. When the light is projected on it, it is very bright. If you don't believe me, take a close look at the bright light?Yingluo approached the candle as she said, and sure enough, when she moved her hand, it flickered, but when the light was not good or during the day, it was as dull as an ordinary stone.

She happily said: Young master, you thought it would be useful so you made it for me?When did you do it?Fu Hengdao: After I got this stone, I wanted to make a pair of earrings for you. Later, you said you wanted me to prepare them back. I thought it was just right, so I taught them to set them on the earrings. I didn’t think too much about whether it would be useful or not. , but it really came in handy today!

Yingluo shook her head and said: No, then why didn't you tell me?Fu Heng looked at the night market outside the window, smiled slightly and said: I just want to tell you when I go out with you one night.Yingluo said: "You're also wearing back clothes?"I wouldn't wear it without backwear.Fu Heng smiled and nodded again.Yingluo looked at Fu Heng with her head tilted, and said with a smile: "Master, so you like Hui girls!"Fu Heng nodded her nose and said: I only like you, how good-looking you are in a back suit!Even without this earring, I would have seen you a long time ago, because you are my Yingluo!

Yingluo smiled and said: I know, the green color you use is not common, so it is easy to know that it is me.When I first brought this set, I thought the bright apple green clothes, black velvet vest, black velvet cap, paired with the snow-white veil and silver earrings were particularly eye-catching, although the clothes were only made of cloth, the vest was a solid color , Earrings are also very ordinary.You just took the opportunity to tell me about the earrings you gave me. You chose this set of colors to match this white cloak, right?

Fu Hengdao: Most Hui women dress brightly, and Mrs. Zhongyong must be different of course!Yingluo was extremely happy in her heart, and jokingly said: Aren't you cautious?Too ostentatious, right?Fu Hengdao: I think you will be fine if you don’t go to the mosque wearing Hui clothes, or stay with me.Only then did Yingluo suddenly realize, and said: So those people in the mosque belonged to you. I thought you intervened in this matter to help Concubine Rong. I was sent back to Baoyue Tower by you, and the token you gave Xiao Quanzi last time.

Fu Hengdao: "That's the mission the emperor sent me early in the morning. I also want to help her, but I can't help her much."Then she looked at her worriedly, and continued: "Yingluo, this time is to protect Concubine Rong, next time... I have to order him to be taken."Yingluo nodded, and said: I understand that no one can change what the emperor decides.I remembered, on the way you sent Concubine Rong back, didn't you go to do other things halfway, and that also has something to do with Huibu, right?Fu Heng nodded and said: At that time, the emperor issued a secret decree to me.Yingluo, how are you going to keep Xiao Quanzi from telling the emperor what happened today?Yingluo said: He won't say it.He is already mine.Fu Hengqi said: What?how did you do that?

Yingluo smiled mysteriously, and said: After the emperor asked me to marry from Nalan Mansion, I went to him and said that I knew he was working for the emperor.He was startled.I said, you can do things for the emperor, if you don't do well, I can't spare you.Before I met the emperor at Zhengjue Temple, he didn't know what I said to the emperor, but immediately I had an identity, I told him it was because I told the emperor that I had a child, and he was shocked again.I said you just tell the emperor that I know everything, or I can tell him to see if he will keep your head.So he said that in the future, he would send a note every month and ask me to tell him what to write.I said yes, I will tell the emperor about my business, write the note myself, and he will pass it on. The emperor is happy to read it and keep it.And adults don't know anything.He was relieved, hehe.When I go back later, I will scare him a few more words.

Fu Heng looked at her worriedly, and said: You write a note to the emperor yourself?He... the thorn in his heart is always there.Yingluo said: "Master, after you said this last time, I have thought about it for a long time, and you are right.That's why I had to write him a note myself.He doesn't know that you know about me sending notes to him, and you also covered up the incident at Zhengjue Temple last time, so he will feel that it will always be a secret between him and me, so that you can be safe.Last time I did what you said and told him the name you gave the child. He was very happy, but I said that was what I meant. If he likes it, I will tell you again.I will not meet him again, try not to see him.But if you don't come today, I have to meet him. He will be surprised when he sees me, and I will lead him to another place, and Huo Jizhan will easily go away.Fu Heng thought for a while, then smiled: You are also very bad!

Yingluo giggled and said, I am Mrs. Zhongyong Gong!Besides, the emperor didn't lose anything, he was the one who gave me to you, now that I have a child, he can't repent even if he wants to, it's better to just give you all the favors.Fu Heng smiled and said nothing. On the matter of the child, he and Ying Luo had the same thoughts. This child was very important to both of them.Yingluo asked again: Master, why did the Lama of the Yellow Sect go to touch Concubine Rong again?Is it also aimed at the emperor?

Fu Hengdao: "It's possible, the emperor is handling this matter himself, so let's not ask about it."The emperor cannot let the emperor know about Concubine Rong today. She probably didn't go to meet Huo Jizhan. Neither of them would choose Tongshunzhai. Huo Jizhan only showed up when he saw that she was in danger, so he was actually there all the time. Follow Concubine Rong secretly.Yingluo nodded, thinking about his infatuation, but sooner or later the two of them will say goodbye, and feel sad.

Caiyun was surprised when she saw that Concubine Rong was sent back to Baoyue Tower, and the road seemed to be unstable.Concubine Rong immediately said: "Hurry up and change into that blue robe for me, and then help me to lie down, the emperor is coming soon."Caiyun immediately helped her change her clothes and comb her hair, and when everything was done, the emperor really came.

Seeing that Concubine Rong was wearing the clothes she used to go to worship, lying pale on the bed and about to get up to say hello, she immediately said: "Lie down."Then she walked up to her and sat on the edge of the bed to watch her. Concubine Rong smiled slightly at him and said: Shen Bi is fine, but just fainted during the worship.The emperor asked Caiyun, "Did you go to announce the imperial physician?"Caiyun hurriedly said: "Your Majesty just came back, and the slave hasn't had time yet."As he spoke, he wanted to go out.

Concubine Rong said: Don't go.Then he said to the emperor: "The concubine just didn't sleep well last night. When she got up in the morning, she felt bad. After taking a nap, she went to the evening ceremony when she felt fine. The Pope was worried."Master Fu Heng said that the emperor also went to worship in the temple, but it was a pity that Shen Bicai fainted after talking to him.The emperor said: I feel that I haven't seen you for several days, and I just went to the temple to pick you up.Concubine Rong smiled slightly, and said: Master Fu Heng told me that you invited Elder Xuanli to bring Shen Bi to the lobby to worship with so many common people. You are so kind to us, but it is a pity that Shen Bi is not feeling well today.The emperor shook his head and said: Don't listen to Fu Heng.

Concubine Rong smiled again, and said: Your Majesty, you men, Shen Bi understands what is really important in your heart.The emperor also smiled, and said: I'm not good enough for you?You have wronged me by saying this.Concubine Rong sat up, the emperor hurriedly supported her, and said: "Be careful and feel dizzy!"Concubine Rong approached his arms, and the emperor hugged her.Concubine Rong said: Your Majesty, Shen Bi knows that you are not happy that I went to the ceremony, you think I am doing it for him, and you still don't believe what Shen Bi said.The emperor said: Then who are you for?

Shen Bi said: You already know that I am serving Allah, and I also perform Fajr, Lr, Asr, and Isha prayers in Baoyue Tower. You know that it is a sin for us not to serve Allah.You ask Caiyun, is that so?Don't you build mosques for us so that we can serve Allah?Cai Yun on the side hurriedly said: Your Majesty, Master does worship on a regular basis every day.The emperor patted Concubine Rong and said, "Okay, then I will believe you."I don't want you to go because I'm worried about your safety.

Concubine Rong sighed, and said: Your Majesty, it is very kind of you to treat Shen Bi.How could he kill me?The emperor said: "Of course he won't kill you, but he will take you as a hostage in order to escape for his life. If you are not careful, you will die."Concubine Rong shook her head and said: Let's not talk about him anymore.Seeing her pale face, the emperor said: I am here to accompany you tonight?

Concubine Rong said shyly: "The concubine's menstruation is coming, and I dare not keep the emperor here. I didn't sleep well last night because of this, so I said just now that I don't want to call the imperial doctor."The emperor nodded and said: "Then you have a good rest, I will come back in a few days."According to the rules, when a concubine concubine comes to menstruation, even if she can't get a room, she can't stay the emperor overnight.

After the emperor left.Caiyun then undressed and changed her clothes to cleanse her face. Seeing Concubine Rong regained her complexion, she said: Master, what happened this afternoon?You dismissed the guards, went out through the back door, and didn't let the servant follow. The servant was always in fear. I didn't expect you to go to the faint ceremony. How could you faint?Why don't you keep the emperor here?Slave, look, the emperor really loves his master, and it is warm to have someone around him, so why push the emperor to others?She knew best that Concubine Rong didn't have menstruation at all, so she asked.

Concubine Rong shook her head and said: I want to be alone tonight.I'm not hungry, I don't need dinner, you should go to rest too.After Caiyun left, Concubine Rong opened the Quran, but couldn't read it.Suddenly remembered what the Queen Mother said that day, "He'an" means peace and peace. She put her left hand on her chest, and felt the warmth of Huo Jizhan holding her in the palm of her hand. She closed her eyes and said softly: You are safe and sound.
