Emperor Can’t Resist - Chapter 468
In the long lane leading to Shouning palace, a sedan chair lifted by four people hurried forward, fast and steady.
Sitting in the sedan chair, Tao Susu looked up at the back palace of the imperial city. All he saw were pavilions with upturned eaves. The golden glazed tiles were shining in the sun, which made his eyes ache.
In the palace, there is still a rich and magnificent atmosphere of peace and prosperity, which has not been changed by the storm.
Looking up at the warm winter sun, the sky is blue as sea water, high and soft.
Tao Su’s eyes drooped. I didn’t know what I was thinking.
After passing the imperial gate, the corridor turns eastward. There are many patterns on the walls of the Zhuhong palace. Less than a quarter of an hour later, the palace sedan stops in front of a palace. On the plaque in the center of the hall, there are three golden characters: “Shouning palace.”
Shouning palace is a relatively secluded place, especially suitable for resting.
Tao Susu got out of the palace sedan chair, looked up at the three gold characters on the plaque, and said: next, it’s a tough battle to fight!
As the attendant in the dark red robe came in, Tao Susu saw a bamboo forest planted in a corner of the palace. Although it was winter, the bamboo was still green, which was very eye-catching. People could not help but feel happy, and diluted a lot of depression accumulated in their hearts.
When they saw her, the waiters and maids knelt all the way.
When we got to the gate of the hall, the waiter came forward and announced that all the people were waiting at the gate.
Inside the hall.
“The Empress Dowager is lucky. Mrs. Ruyi is waiting outside the door. She wants to see the Empress Dowager!” In the yellow robe, the servant’s voice was sharp and he knelt down.
Lying on the side of the princess’s chair, the Empress Dowager dozed off and took a nap. The fingers of the maid in waiting were massaging her.
The Empress Dowager slowly opened her eyes. Before she got up, the maid in waiting had stopped massaging. Instead, she bent over to hold the Empress Dowager’s arm and helped her sit upright slowly.
The Empress Dowager stretched out a sleeve inlaid with gold and jade, patted the skirt embroidered with large peony flowers, and said without hesitation, “Mrs. Ruyi asked to see the mourning family?”
Finally, with a sneer, he said, “sure!”
“Yes
Huang Pao NEISHI knelt down and stepped back a few steps. After he left the door, he stood up.
At the gate of the hall, he bowed his head and said, “Madam Ruyi, please welcome the Empress Dowager!”
After a while, Tao Su entered the main hall of Shouning palace. The hall was full of charcoal, warm as spring, and fragrant.
“My concubine, please see the Empress Dowager for a thousand years!”
The Empress Dowager was sitting on her chair, sipping tea with a phoenix cup. She didn’t worry when she heard the sound. She only waited until a cup of tea reached the bottom, then she raised her eyes and said, “get up!”
Tao Su stood up and said, “thank you, Empress Dowager!”
The Empress Dowager let out a “um” and put down her tea cup. She didn’t say much about giving a seat or saying much.
With a deep sigh, Tao Su Su gave another gift, “empress dowager, I haven’t seen you for a few days. I miss you so much! This is not, just back to the palace, I thought to give you first, lest you worry about my concubine! A few days ago, I happened to pass by qiumingshan road. I met a strange man. The preserves he made were delicious. My concubine thought that the Empress Dowager would like it, so she brought some back and wanted her to have a good taste. ”
After that, he called, “come on, give the Empress Dowager a candied fruit!”
There was a sound of footsteps outside the door. Su Yan timidly entered the hall with a jade plate, offered preserves, and withdrew from the hall again.
The maid in waiting took the jade plate and put it on the table beside the Empress Dowager.
Seeing that the whole body of the candied fruit was bright, the sweet smell had penetrated into her nose before she could eat it, and the Empress Dowager was not polite. She picked up one and put it into her mouth, chewed it a few times, and sighed, “it’s really delicious!”
Tao Su Su continued, “if the Empress Dowager likes it
With the sweetness of the candied fruit, the Empress Dowager’s face looked a little better. She yelled at the servant around her and said, “I’m a slave with no eyesight. I’m not going to take a seat for Mrs. Ruyi soon!”
“Thank you for your seat!”
Tao Susu slightly dropped her hand and stood aside, waiting for the waiter to put the seat away. She sat down quietly.
In the hall, all the maids in the palace lowered their eyebrows and bowed their heads. They did not dare to breathe. It was so quiet that they could hear the sound when an embroidery needle fell down.
The Empress Dowager is elegant and elegant, tasting tea, looking at the sparkling water in the cup, gently blowing, sipping two mouthfuls, then looking up, like if inadvertently looking at the silent Tao su.
Suddenly, he said with a smile, “Madam Ruyi, you see, the sad family is really old. On weekdays, no sound is heard. People in the Forbidden City are used to walking lightly in front of the mourning family. As soon as the hall was silent, the mourners thought that there was no one else in it. Mrs. Ruyi, I’ve neglected you. Come on, give Mrs. Ruyi teaTao Su Su said in a low voice, “no problem, it’s my concubine who disturbed the rest of the Empress Dowager!”
With a smile in her eyes, the Empress Dowager pretended to be concerned and asked, “Mrs. Ruyi, where have you been these days? The emperor was very angry about your disappearance and angered many people. With the grief of the family, they are all involved… ”
After that, he sighed and lengthened his tone.
“It’s the concubines who are not good enough to make the Empress Dowager suffer!” Tao Su bowed down, bowed his head and voluntarily admitted his mistake. “I was cursed by a villain before, and I was delirious. I was tied to the western regions by a villain. All the way bumpy, suffering, villain to the western regions, and his concubines trapped in a bird does not shit in the wild mountains, all day long see no one. Ah, I don’t want to mention the past again, so as not to worry about the Empress Dowager Jin’an! ”
Half true and half false words, the Empress Dowager’s eyes narrowed up, and the cold light flashed by.
“Such a difficult and dangerous experience, the sad family really trembled, and Mrs. Ruyi also suffered.” The Empress Dowager politely expressed her sympathy for her, and then continued to ask, “in such a dangerous situation, how did Mrs. Ruyi escape from the evil hands?”
“I really don’t have the ability to escape from the villain easily. What’s more, I was still pregnant at that time…” Tao Su Su said here. After a pause, she flashed across the ugly child who only met him once. She was very sad and sad. “Later, the villain wanted to burn my concubine in the name of a witch. Fortunately, his majesty arrived in time, I saved my concubine. Only in this way can I go back to the palace safely. At this time, I stand in front of the Empress Dowager and say hello to her! ”
What a life!
The empress dowager, dark Fei, closed the celadon tea lid and sighed, “listen to Mrs. Ruyi, the situation was really dangerous at that time. Fortunately, the emperor acted quickly, otherwise I would not have seen you.”
“Yes, the empress dowager, as well as her majesty Fu Ze en Zhao, has saved her concubine’s life!”
Wear a thousand things, but not flattery.
Tao Su boasted about his man. His mouth was as sweet as honey. It was not ambiguous at all.
“Speaking of the Emperor…” the Empress Dowager’s eyes were bright and asked, “are you coming back from the emperor’s barracks?”
I don’t know what she wants to ask. Tao Su tells the truth, nods and says, “yes! The barracks are full of men. It’s not convenient for me to include my concubines. It’s also detrimental to your Majesty’s dignity in front of the soldiers! ”
“Good! Mrs. Ruyi is sensible! ” The Empress Dowager boasted and continued the topic she wanted to ask just now, “that is, if you come back from the military camp, will the emperor be safe now? The front-line war is very complicated. I’m very worried about the emperor! “
