The Double Soul of Red Mansions
Chapter 55 Secret I
Chapter 55 Mystery 1
During her days in the palace, besides wearing a veil all the time, Daiyu lived quite comfortably.Daiyu was not a person who would make things difficult for herself. After entering the palace, she always kept in mind that she was here to serve as a student, so she took advantage of the days of serving as a student to spend a rare leisure time with books and paintings.
On this day, just as Daiyu left the study room behind the eldest princess, she heard several servants beside her whispering together about the news that Wala went south to invade the border, and that the Holy Majesty wanted Chen Ruiwen, the eldest son of the Duke of Qi's mansion, to go out with the right-wing general.
Too bad, Daiyu thought to herself.It has long been known that the Duke of Qi and the nobles of Wala have national hatred and family hatred.Now that the expedition is imminent, Daiyu vaguely feels that Chen Ruixuan will do something she doesn't want to see.
Daiyu has something on her mind, but she can't go out of the palace to find out.And Chen Ruixuan of Duke Qi's mansion did exactly as Daiyu expected.When she heard that Chen Ruiwen was going on an expedition, she made up her mind to leave with the army, and she was also determined to protect her aunt's only son.She wants to protect her cousin who is not her own brother, just like her grandfather.
Ever since Daiyu found out the news, she couldn't feel at ease all day long.In the end, taking advantage of the night, she drugged Gao Rongyu, who was living in the same room, and planned to go out of the palace to find Chen Ruixuan in night clothes.
Daiyu of Duke Qi's mansion knew the way very well, so she didn't need to waste too much time, so Daiyu jumped from the window into Chen Ruixuan's bedroom.
"Who?"
After Daiyu entered the room, she deliberately made a sound, and Chen Ruixuan was also very alert, but her breathing and footsteps were aggravated, so she took out a dagger from under the pillow in the bedroom and held it tightly.
"Sister Chen, it's me, Yuer." Daiyu said softly.
"Why are you here?" When Chen Ruixuan heard it was Daiyu's voice, she hurriedly got off the bed, walked aside, gently opened the glass cup on the table, lit the candle, and let a ray of light shine through the room.
"I don't worry about you." Daiyu said, "I heard that the army will leave in a month. You, you plan to follow!"
Daiyu said affirmatively, but she was far from thinking of the madness in Chen Ruixuan's heart.
"No, I plan to go instead of elder brother." Chen Ruixuan said.
"Are you kidding me? The battlefield is not about small fights." Lin Daiyu and Li Mochou had seen too many battles in their dreams, and they were full of bones. It doesn't mean that you can be invincible with martial arts.Who can't see the wars in that world sometimes even the chivalrous warriors with outstanding martial arts can't do anything about it.
Xu Shi felt that her tone was a bit too strong, Lin Daiyu sighed softly and said, "Sister Chen, I can understand what happened in your family, but you can't make fun of your life. You must give more consideration to this matter. "
Chen Ruixuan looked at Daiyu's worried eyes, and said with a smile on her face, "Yu'er, I know you are worried about me, but I have a family that I want to protect. I can only move forward, not back."
"But, but you shouldn't have to bear these things." Lin Daiyu said, "Don't you want to know the secrets of Empress Chen? If you are not here, who should I tell all this?"
Chen Ruixuan pulled Daiyu, and the two walked to the window together and said, "I know you care about me, but this time I have to bear it myself. The little brother is the only child in Duke Qi's mansion, and I can't let him have any mistakes. "
Lin Daiyu looked at Chen Ruixuan's persistent eyes, and sighed helplessly: "You can't do this. Chen Ruize will know these things sooner or later. He is the heir of the Duke of Qi, and he has the right to know this, so he can choose what he should do." Go on. Are you really doing this for his own good? He can't live so heartlessly forever. "
Although Chen Ruixuan's stubbornness was expected by Daiyu, but this conceivable rejection still made Daiyu sigh in her heart.She has no siblings, and the only one she is close to is Li Mochou, but in her relationship with Li Mochou, she is actually on the protected side.Dai Yu still couldn't understand Chen Ruixuan's devotion to his family and brothers.
The conversation between the two did not reach a good result. Daiyu respected this only friend, and all she could do was plan to prepare more medicine and poison, so that Chen Ruixuan could have some capital to save his life.
Watching Daiyu leave, Chen Ruixuan murmured to herself: "The family my father guards, I will do it for him. Moreover, the revenge of killing my father must be avenged by myself to comfort my father's spirit of death."
***
The Golden Palace of Imperial Concubine Chen was shrouded in the night, which made Daiyu feel extra solemn.This is the residence of the highest authority in the harem. Apart from the Fengyi Palace where the former empress once lived, among the palaces and towers in the harem, Daiyu's current Golden Palace is the most magnificent.
"Huh? That direction is Fengyi Palace." Wearing black clothes, Daiyu stood on the roof of the main hall of Jinque Palace. Looking from a distance, she discovered that in this dark night, the palace gate has been closed tightly and has become a forbidden area. Fengyi Palace was lit with lights.
Daiyu has always been able to control her curiosity, but tonight thinking of Chen Ruixuan and what she had told her, Daiyu didn't hesitate, so she raised her spirits and hid herself in the dark night, heading towards Fengyi Palace. direction to run.
Fengyi Palace was peaceful, but the patrolling guards came one after another, and Daiyu was full of doubts.This place has always been a forbidden area. In the past, the palace gates were closed, and anyone who dared to set foot was dealt with by the palace rules.She originally thought that this place should be an abandoned palace, but unexpectedly, there were so many guards behind the scenes.
Everything about Fengyi Palace confuses Daiyu, and the more tightly guarded Fengyi Palace is, the more unusual it is for Daiyu to smell it.
The more so, the more cautious Daiyu became.Carefully adjust your breathing, the whole person is on guard at any time.After checking that there was no flaw in her body, Daiyu avoided the guards and came to the main hall of Fengyi Palace.
"Queen, I know, you will not blame me." As soon as Daiyu approached the main hall, she heard the voice of the current Holy Majesty.
"The Holy Majesty is actually here." Daiyu recalled the rumors in the palace. Inside and outside the palace, it was said that the Holy Majesty was deeply in love with the former empress. more than enough.Since then, the Holy Majesty has not stood up, and closed Fengyi Palace, no longer entering Fengyi Palace.And no one else can enter, which made Daiyu feel for a while that the Holy One still has some human touch.And now meeting the Holy Majesty here, although Daiyu was a little surprised, she felt it was reasonable.
Daiyu didn't intend to disturb the Holy Majesty who was here to see things and think about people, and planned to go to other places to see.Just when he was about to turn over and leave, he heard a word from the Holy Majesty.
"Queen, for the sake of my Zhao family, I know I have wronged you. However, since you are the mother of a country, it is your responsibility to make sacrifices."
sacrifice?responsibility?
Daiyu suddenly felt that she really might have glimpsed a secret that no one knew about tonight.Everyone said that the first queen gave birth to a child and died of bleeding, but now, after listening to one of the few words from the sage, Daiyu realized that the death of the first queen was probably something tricky.
Daiyu was cautious by nature, she stayed in Fengyi Palace for half an hour and didn't hear anything else from the Holy Majesty, so she planned to go back first.This Fengyi Palace, she will come back some time later.
Gao Rongyu in the room fell into a deep sleep because of the fragrance, and she didn't notice it at all after Daiyu entered the room.And when she woke up the next day, Gao Rongyu was surprised that she could sleep until dawn.
"Morning sister." Seeing Lin Daiyu tidying up, Gao Rongyu said with a smile, "Mr. is going to check his homework today. Is my sister ready?"
Daiyu nodded and said, "Sister Lao Gao is concerned, I am ready."
Gao Rongyu said with a smile: "That's right, even the master praised you for your good understanding, you can learn everything at once, but how many people envy you. Especially that Wu Qingqing."
When mentioning Wu Qingqing, Daiyu seldom raised a smile early in the morning.For this, Daiyu knew in her heart that the two of them were not the same way. Wu Qingqing had a flamboyant personality and a simple mind, and she did everything according to her own will.Daiyu was annoyed by this, but she was equally envious.Wu Qingqing's temperament just explained the carefree time she spent growing up.
The maid brought breakfast to eat in the house by herself. Originally, after breakfast, she had to go to say good morning to Concubine Chen before going to school.But today, a guest came to Concubine Chen's Golden Palace, and Concubine Chen canceled the morning ceremony for the Eldest Princess and the four attendants.
"Miss Lin, the imperial concubine is here to invite you." Daiyu originally planned to go directly to the school, but was stopped by the maid beside the imperial concubine on the way.
The eldest princess Zhao Man heard the sound outside the sedan chair, so she raised the soft curtain of the sedan chair with bare hands and said, "We are going to the school, do you know why your mother is looking for my companion?"
Concubine Chen's maid smiled and saluted Zhao Man: "Concubine Xiande came to Jinque Palace today and said she missed Miss Lin, so the empress gave Concubine Xiande a favor and specially asked me to invite Miss Lin to talk."
Zhao Man frowned slightly, and he didn't have any good feelings for Concubine Xiande in his heart.Originally, there was one imperial concubine and two noble concubines in the palace, and then there were four concubines.But this virtuous concubine insisted on being under the fourth concubine, and asked her father to set up another concubine as a concubine.This made Zhao Man feel very uncomfortable.Concubine Xiande has no sons and no daughters, but she can surpass her own mother concubine to be ranked under the fourth concubine. This kind of special treatment has always made Zhao Man grieve.
It's just that Zhao Man is not a single-celled animal like Wu Qingqing, and he won't show it if he doesn't like it in his heart. Instead, he smiles and lets Lin Daiyu leave with Chen Huanggui's maid.Seeing the backs of the two leaving one after the other, after Zhao Man put down the car curtain, his face immediately became cloudy.
During her days in the palace, besides wearing a veil all the time, Daiyu lived quite comfortably.Daiyu was not a person who would make things difficult for herself.
