Prequel to the Red Chamber: I Am the Second Wife

Zili felt as if he ate a fly and felt nauseated.His Royal Highness will not stop until he gets her!In the modern society, the grandson is just a good scumbag who everyone shouts and beats.Zili just wanted to refuse fiercely, but a thought flashed into her mind, she still slowed down her voice, and said loudly to the outside: "Please wait a moment, father-in-law, let me straighten up my appearance." Zili clenched her fists deeply. Taking a deep breath, he calmed down, walked to the door and gently pushed the door open.

The person standing under the moonlight turned out to be the eunuch in the empress's palace, Zili clearly remembered that the middle-aged eunuch in front of him was the empress' messenger.Why did the queen interfere in the grandson's marriage?She concealed the surprise in her heart and squatted down slightly to the servant: "Eunuch Sun, is there any important matter for the empress to summon me at this time?"

"Miss Wang, don't worry too much. The Empress has been suffering from insomnia since the death of the crown prince. She often can't fall asleep all night. No matter how many calming soups she drank, the imperial doctor said she needs someone to talk with her at night to relax her mind. Maybe you can fall asleep. The empress thinks that the girl is in the palace these days and wants to call her to talk to relieve boredom, but because of the major event of the draft, she is afraid of being seen and criticized, so she endures it. The empress really has something to say tonight. I told the girl that I took advantage of the silence of the night to call the slaves to invite the girl." Eunuch Sun gave Zili a message that you understand, and Zili immediately understood that the queen wanted to comfort Zili.

"In that case, I'll follow Eunuch Sun to greet Empress Dowager." Zili turned around and took something from under the pillow, carried it on his body and followed Eunuch Sun away.

Walking around the palace late at night is definitely not a good experience. During the day, the palace glistens in the sun, like a luxurious and atmospheric work of art, with every detail exuding a sense of grandeur.But at night, everything changed, there was no moon today, and the palaces were like dark beasts crouching in the dark, ready to pounce on the tiny human beings at any time.The silence around him made people sweat one by one, Zili subconsciously tightened his clothes, and followed Eunuch Sun along the deep and bottomless road.

A little light became their only support in the dark ocean, and the whole palace alley was dark, Zili couldn't help shivering: "Eunuch Sun, I don't think this is the way to go to the empress's bedroom. Why not?" There are no lights!"

"Don't worry, girl, this is passed from the back of the Changchun Palace. This place is quiet with few people, and it saves extra troubles. It's not good for people to see the Queen's Empress privately calling for a beautiful girl to be selected. The girl has already arrived!" Aunt Sun led Zili into a small corner door.Zili vaguely saw the exquisite glazed ornaments on the corner door in the dark, and felt a little relieved.The moon was dark and the wind was high, Fangcai Zili was really lost, she had no idea where she was going and where Eunuch Sun was taking her.Now that Zili could vaguely see the delicate little door, he felt relieved.It was the empress who called, not the grandson——

The moment Zili secretly rejoiced to step over the threshold, she was suddenly grabbed by a man's arm. Out of instinct, Zili opened her mouth to scream.Don't call, it's me!Taisun's voice rang in Zili's ears.Zili looked at the grandson who was staring at the grandson who came out of the dark doorway in surprise, she felt as if she had fallen into a trap.

Zili was dragged into a side hall by the grandson. She stared at the grandson in surprise and stammered, "Your Highness—why is Your Highness in the empress's palace? Didn't you say that the empress summoned me?"

"I begged my grandmother, and she agreed to help me. Zili, would you—" The polite, reserved and shy Grandson disappeared in front of Zili.He grabbed Zili's hand, stared fiercely into her eyes, and spoke quickly about his plan. His Highness Taisun stared eagerly into Zili's eyes and told her to agree quickly.

Wave after wave hit her head and face, leaving Zili no time to breathe and think. She felt that she couldn't breathe.How did things get so weird?How could the queen be involved? The grandson's enthusiasm is a bit abnormal.A child who grew up under the authority of his grandfather should not be so courageous, nor should he be so childish.

Unusually for a demon, Zili shrugged his nose subconsciously——has a demonic aura!There must be an article in it, let me carefully examine and reason.Don't ask Yuanfang what you think, Zili knew it was strange for her grandson to appear here at this time.Should she simply turn her back and leave, or persuade His Royal Highness to be more rational?Taisun held Zili's arm very hard, and the heat from his palm burned onto her skin bit by bit through the clothes. "Why is Your Highness here? The palace gate is about to be closed. Don't forget that this is in the harem, Your Highness. Please go back quickly. If someone finds out, there will be another disturbance." Zili stepped back lightly. One step further, he greeted Taisun Li Luo with blessings, and reminded Taisun that he should go back to his East Palace in the dead of night.

Taisun continued to question Zili, the crazy expression on his face gradually faded, and he looked at Zili under the dim light.Taisun took a step back calmly, his whole body was shrouded in deep shadows, Zili couldn't see Taisun's expression, but her senses became extraordinarily keen.In the deep darkness, Zili felt the prying eyes lurking around her, they were staring at her every move, regurgitating every word she said in her heart.

"Don't you know, Grandpa Huang prefers someone else to be the grandson Liangdi, so I'm afraid it's a fate. Didn't your grandfather and father reveal any meaning before you entered the palace for election?" The grandson looked at Zili calmly. He even began to suspect in his heart that this girl is not in a hurry because she still confidently thinks that the seat of Grandson Liangdi belongs to her.The Wang family really didn't take this kindness to heart, could it be that Wang Changchun and Wang Dingqian didn't care about the glory of grandson Liang Di at all?They didn't tell Zili anything, since Zili grew up in a deep boudoir so naturally he wouldn't know about the court's plans.If that's the case, not only myself, but also the emperor's grandfather would be wrong.

Zili was stumped by the grandson's question, she was in a dilemma, she said she knew, the Wang family and herself should not be labeled as powerful.If you have a bad attitude, you will definitely be labeled as resentful.If you say you don't know, that would be a lie.It's really wrong, it's embarrassing, Zili hesitated for a moment, and she fell silent.Zili was silent for a little longer, and some people seemed to be unable to sit still. Grandpa Sun, who brought Zili, had long since disappeared without a trace, and only Zili and Taisun were left in the yard.The atmosphere was quiet and stagnant, Zili suddenly heard some small sounds like the soles of shoes rubbing against the green brick floor, as if someone coughed impatiently in the dark.The cough was very slight, and if you didn't listen carefully, you wouldn't think it was an auditory hallucination.

There were other people in this yard, Zili raised her head abruptly, her eyes and Taisun's eyes met in mid-air for a split second, and Zili suddenly understood something.Oh I see!She took a deep breath, and spoke slowly with a crying voice: "Before I entered the palace to be elected, my grandfather told me not to force people to do things, and to accept fate according to nature. Don't force things that are not your own. Although I am dull, but this I heard a lot in the palace in the past few days. I was originally a dull person and could not serve His Highness. In the end, His Majesty is far-sighted and has the ability to know people. Besides, the elders make decisions about marriages. How can we be juniors? The truth of talking casually about one's own life-long events."

Zili cleverly put his father and grandfather in a safe position. Anyway, the Wang family did not feel resentment towards the emperor. Even though the emperor did something very unethical, their Wang family accepted it submissively.Zili is not an idiot either, the grandson asked Dai Quan to send a message to deliver things, Zili has been treated preferentially since entering the palace, she said that even a wooden person can detect something is wrong.Although the grandson was a little disappointed when he heard Zili's answer, he felt relieved when he thought about that person.

But the grandson was still unwilling to let go and added: "Don't you have any affection for me!?" Zili was startled by His Highness the grandson's sad eyes, she really wanted to grab the grandson's collar Roaring: "What do you mean, I thank you for giving me the hint, but how could you just kick me back from the edge of the pit, do you want me to get out of the way or miss me? Die! Don’t wait for you to play with me like this! I said that you have loved me, and you will cause countless troubles in the future. If I say that you have never loved, your self-esteem will be broken, and the person hiding in the shadow will What do you think? I saw your poor glass with your grandfather and my heart broke, and I felt sorry for my grandson. Okay! Do you dare to drag my grandson out to fight! Is there any way for me to survive? What enmity do I have with you? What grievances? !"

Zili, who was about to vomit blood after being pissed off by the grandson, felt hot on her face. She swallowed hard the old blood that had reached her throat, and she just covered her face and sobbed sadly, blah blah, she just burst into tears. Bar.Looking at Zili's twitching shoulders, although Zili wanted to cry, but especially at this time in the inner garden of the imperial palace, Zili did not dare to cry out loud.She desperately suppressed the sound of sobbing, who knew that choking and crying in her chest was more lethal.Seeing Zili's posture like this, Taisun's heart softened in a mess.

Don't be sad, I have failed you anyway.The grandson couldn't help but patted Zili's shoulder lightly, and was about to take out a handkerchief from his sleeve to wipe her face, but Zili suddenly raised his tear-stained face: "I hope that your highness will take good care of yourself from now on. May your highness The body is long and healthy, the flowers are always beautiful, the moon is always round, and people live long." As she spoke, she looked deeply at Taisun Yifu, stuffed something into Taisun's hand, turned and left resolutely.

As soon as Zili stepped over the threshold, she couldn't control herself anymore and leaned against the wall. At this time, Eunuch Sun appeared beside Zili as if he had crawled out of the ground.The light distorted the smile on the corner of his mouth to be even more blurred. Eunuch Sun supported Zili's arm and said softly, "It's getting late, let the miscellaneous family take the girl back."

It seemed that she was safe, Zili felt a little relieved, and smiled at Eunuch Sun, and she smiled weakly: "It's time for you to work." She tried to stand up as she spoke.Unexpectedly, her legs seemed to have no bones, they were so soft that they couldn't stand up, let alone support her weight. "It's better to ask the miscellaneous family to help the girl go. In fact, the empress really likes the girl in her heart. She asks the maidservant to tell the girl that the girl is a rare and good child, so don't belittle yourself. The empress will find another door for the girl. Good marriage." Eunuch Sun whispered the meaning of the queen in Zili's ear, and slowly helped her back.

The destination is in front of her eyes, Zili saw from a long distance the little maid waiting for her was standing in front of the palace gate with a lantern and kept looking at her, Zili had slowly controlled her emotions, she struggled to straighten herself Standing up straight, he bowed down gratefully to Eunuch Sun: "I've arrived at the place, please go back quickly when it's late. Please also take me to convey to Eunuch. Thank you, Empress, for your concern. My servants are not talented and have no blessings." Serve the empress. I can only pray devoutly in front of the Buddha every day, and may the Buddha bless the empress with long life and well-being." Eunuch Sun cupped his hands at Zili and said, "Don't worry, girl, I will definitely bring the message. Tomorrow, the girl will be able to go home as a member of the regiment. "

When Zili climbed onto the bed and tossed and turned the sesame seed cakes, Taisun was watching Dai Quan being beaten.The lead-filled bamboo pole hit Dai Quan's buttocks one after another. Dai Quan had long since lost the strength to feel the pain.The muffled sound of the bamboo pole hitting the meat was extremely ear-piercing in the dark night, every time it was like a sharp needle piercing Taisun's body.

"Report to Your Majesty, Dai Quan is almost out of breath!" The eunuch who executed the execution went to check Dai Quan's breath first, and told the emperor and grandson who were sitting under the porch.The emperor just ordered to be beaten, but he didn't say how many times. According to the rules of the kilometer, if the master said that he wanted to be beaten but didn't say the number, he would be beaten to death.But the emperor said just now that he wanted to keep Dai Quan's dog's life, and the executioner saw that Dai Quan's life was going to be reimbursed, so he stopped and asked the emperor for instructions.The emperor's temperament is unpredictable, and touching the emperor's inverse scales somewhere would be a catastrophe.

"You can tell him to die, ask the imperial doctor to show him, and still serve the grandson when he is able to walk. You should also set an example for you! You have soft ears, and you will end up listening to slander!" Put a warning post beside you to let the grandson know that even if you become a prince, you will not be able to do whatever you want when you become an emperor in the future.

The grandson trembled involuntarily when he was stabbed by the sharp eyes of his grandfather. Seeing Dai Quan being dragged out of his bloody body, the grandson hurriedly agreed with a trembling in his heart: "Yes, my grandson will remember the lesson and never dare to act recklessly again." presumptuous."

"You have to remember that the world will be yours in the future. There are countless people trying to figure out your thoughts, and your every move will be repeatedly figured out to cater to your wishes. The most important thing to sit in this seat is What, it is to control your own body, and everything must be state affairs. The emperor often said that being an emperor is the most depressing job in the world, but in fact, being a leisurely prince is the most comfortable and comfortable. But I don’t know why the world Everyone thinks that the emperor is better than being a prince." The emperor patted his grandson's shoulder with emotion, and softened his eyes: "It's not the grandfather who beat the mandarin ducks with a club and broke up your little lover. How can you lose your ambition as a prince. Cheer up, tomorrow I will I personally choose a few good girls for you. If you have the world, do you still worry about not having any beauties?"

The queen looked at her grandson distressedly at the side: "It's getting late, Your Majesty should rest. Dalang has learned a lesson from this experience, and he will never mess around again. Your Majesty has worked hard to teach the grandson, the grandson It won't disappoint His Majesty either. Da Lang will understand His Majesty's painstaking efforts." The emperor waved his hand to tell his grandson to go back, and he said to the queen with his hands behind his back: "It's rare to be quiet at night, so Zitong will follow me."

The emperor and the empress strolled slowly along the Shiziyong Road, "Your Majesty, what should the Wang family girl do?" The empress silently sat beside the emperor and couldn't help but speak.

Almost all the relatives and noble families in the capital knew that the Wang family girl was going to enter the palace, but she was dismissed tomorrow. Wouldn't it make the whole world know that the Wang family girl was despised by the royal family?Who would dare to marry a girl who was despised by the royal family?Isn't that just delaying the girl's life?No matter how loyal the Wang family is to the emperor, it is inevitable that they will complain in their hearts.

"Well, you just have to rest assured. I won't chill the hearts of my subjects, and I will definitely find a good marriage for the girl from the Wang family." The emperor held the queen's hand and smiled at the corner of his mouth: "This girl is quite clever, but Our grandson is too sincere and does not need a woman who is too smart."
