Emperor Can’t Resist - Chapter 486
It’s cold at night. On the trees outside the window, jackdaws occasionally make a few strange calls. The cold wind sweeps the dead leaves, and the moonlight spreads all over the ground of the Buddhist hall, printing a large pool like trace.
Kneeling in the Buddhist hall, she has been worshiping for three hours. The window is open, and the cold wind everywhere is like a naughty child, jumping around tao Susu, which makes her limbs cold, numb and stiff, and her mind in a trance.
Time, like a sharp knife, slowly and long cuts her spirit and body.
Only at dawn did the maid of honor inform us that the ceremony was over.
As soon as the voice fell, Su Yan, who had been waiting for a long time, rushed to Tao Su Su’s side with her skirt and reached out to help her up.
The fingers were so cold that they were not very popular. When they touched Su Yan’s warm hand, they didn’t feel it for a moment. After that, they felt very hot again.
Tao Su knelt down to his numb legs. After several efforts, he straightened out slowly and difficultly. With the support of external force, he stood up tremblingly like an old woman.
“Madam…”
As soon as she opened her mouth, Su Yan’s tears fell down and dropped onto the back of Tao Su Su’s black and blue hand, which made her slightly stunned.
This Shouning palace is no better than its own tengge palace. There are ears and eyes everywhere. Tao Su whispered and said with a smile, “what are you crying about? I’m not good!”
She didn’t say it was OK. As soon as she said it, Su Yan couldn’t control herself any more. Her tears crackled all over her face like beads.
Last afternoon, the Empress Dowager invited Mrs. Ruyi to come to Shouning palace to talk. She deliberately set a trap and forced her to go to the Buddhist hall to watch the night. It took her more than nine hours to kneel down.
Originally, my wife’s health was not good. Recently, she was even weaker. She didn’t support her. This time, she knelt all night in the Buddhist hall with open doors and windows. The cold wind was so bitter that she didn’t even have a charcoal stove. It was hard for ordinary people to bear the pain, but my wife resisted.
She said she was not good!
The hands are colder than ice, the legs are hard and weak, and even the words are weak and empty, which can be applauded!
“Yan’er, don’t cry, someone is staring at you!”
Tao Su knows that she loves herself, but she can’t let others leave her story behind. She says that she was wronged and sad after offering a Buddhist ceremony for the empress dowager, as if she had suffered a lot.
As soon as she reminds her, Su Yan secretly glances at the silent maid in waiting at the door of her eyes. She can’t help snuffling, calms her mood, stops her tears, and tries to adjust herself from a sad face to a smiling face. “Madam, Yan’er helps you back to the palace!”
“Very good!”
Tao Susu also tugged at the corners of his mouth, showed a stiff smile and walked out of the Buddhist hall step by step.
Then he went to ask the Empress Dowager for an. Then he got on the palace sedan and went back to tengge palace.
Please have a good time. The Empress Dowager said with a smile, “I’m sorry that my parents live in Shouning palace to have a rest, and I haven’t seen the children in the harem for a few days. There will be a special banquet tomorrow. Mrs. Ruyi is the leader of the three ladies in the harem, so we can’t be absent!”
If you know that you can’t get rid of it, you can only kowtow to your favor.
The road back to tengge palace is long and cold, with high walls, red dragons and pearls. Hua Guiping is peaceful, and you can smell the faint fragrance of plum blossom.
The palace sedan stopped steadily, and Tao Su reluctantly recovered his strength and stepped slowly out of the sedan.
Seeing Jiuming waiting at the door, he was surprised and said, “why didn’t you go back to Zhuangyuan’s house?”
“Madam, Jiuming is worried when he hears the news from Shouning palace…”
Jiuming came forward, and Su Yan left and right, holding Tao Susu into the door, “you didn’t come back all night, Jiuming worried all night. In the morning, I heard that you wanted to come back, so I specially prepared some food. Let’s eat some first!”
“Not hungry…”
The body has been numb to lose consciousness, where will feel hungry, even this pretty little face, this frozen to white mouth, all seem to be borrowed from others, so it’s very difficult.
Hehe, no, she borrowed the body.
“Have some rice porridge, madam!”
Seeing the scene with his own eyes, Su Yan was anxious to cry again, “drink some porridge, warm your stomach, and you’ll be more flexible. The maidservants have warmed the bed. Madam will go to the bed first and lie down!”
Wandering around, one wants to cry, one loves, one moves and one is quiet. In my heart, I really care about myself. This kind of feeling is very good for Tao su.
She nodded. It was time.
After eating porridge, lying on the bed, Tao Su coughed a few times and said to Jiuming with a smile, “blow a cheerful tune and listen to it. You all lose face. I don’t know if I’m going to die!””Madam, what are you talking about? Don’t talk about it! What can’t die? It’s bad luck. My wife will surely live a long life, and there will be a lot of children and grandchildren! ” Su Yan’s eyes were full of water, and he said anxiously and angrily.
Jiuming had a deep sadness in his eyes. He just got up in silence, took out a piccolo from the cupboard, picked a more lively tune, and blew it gently.
The melody sounded in the inner room, is cheerful and pleasant, can hear in the ears of Tao Su Su, only feel lonely and desolate heart, like in a vast prairie, grass does not grow, endless, eyes are dry land.
In this way, I slowly closed my eyes and fell asleep in the bright and sad sound of the flute.
The next day.
Shouning palace, imperial concubines, gathered together, singing and laughing, dancing and singing, so lively.
Sitting in the first place on the left side of the empress dowager, Tao Su Su’s face has a modest smile in line with the etiquette. Behind him stands Jiuming and Geji Yao’er, who serve with them. Anyone who comes to propose a toast will have a drink with them. Occasionally, he coughs twice, which is also very good.
In the crowd, I don’t know which concubine said, “it’s amazing to hear that Mrs. Ruyi’s dancing is gorgeous and beautiful. She had offered a birthday dance for the Empress Dowager’s birthday. I don’t know if I can enjoy it again? ”
Her voice fell and the room was silent.
It’s really shameful. A little concubine is willing to let Mrs. Ruyi, the head of the three ladies, dance. I’m afraid it’s either too simple or she will be cannon fodder!
The Empress Dowager sat in the first place gracefully, deliberately silent to stop. In private, the concubines in the palace who had a faster brain all knew what she meant.
Knowing that she couldn’t escape and that this was the Bureau set up by the empress dowager, Tao Su coughed a few times and said in a thick, hoarse voice, “excuse me, Empress Dowager! My concubine was on a vigil in the Buddhist hall the day before yesterday. She didn’t want to be too thin and cold. I wanted to ask for leave from the empress dowager, but I want to come here. If I don’t set an example for my sisters, I’m afraid I’ll insult the title of the great lady. ”
After that, he coughed again.
The Empress Dowager looked at her and thought for a while before she said with a smile, “no harm!”
It doesn’t hurt to say so, but the chill in my eyes is overflowing.
“But…”
Tao Su finished coughing, and then said, “although I can’t dance for my sisters, I have a famous singer beside me, who is good at dancing and singing. She is more charming and charming than I am. It’s just that today, when she has this opportunity, she will make a fool of herself in front of the Empress Dowager. ”
“All right!”
The Empress Dowager’s face is indifferent. She sips the sake in her glass, but her eyes don’t even sweep the singer Yao’er who has already performed.
On the table, the famous wine is warm, the fruit is various, the hall horn konghou sound sounds long, the dance sleeve turns to stir the heartstrings.
I’ve never seen the dance of the singer Yao’er before. At this moment, as a woman, Tao Susu has to feel that her dancing posture is attractive and charming. Her eyes look like hook, which makes her heart itch.
No wonder, no wonder, it’s a famous song!
Such a good figure, such a good capital, how to follow the wrong people!
