MTL - Kunning-Chapter 162 Past life trajectory

In the quiet spring night, the rain and dew grow.

Standing outside Qianqing Palace, Zheng Bao quietly frowned.

The **** in the respect room saw that the emperor turned over the green card, and before he had time to make a decision, a girl from the Xiao family came, which really made him a little uneasy, so he couldn't help asking Zheng Bao in a low voice: "You Look, are you still announcing that nobleman Zhang will come to sleep with you?"

Zheng Bao heard the commotion inside, but his delicate face was shrouded in a layer of gloom under the warm yellow light of the palace lantern beside him, he only said: "I'm afraid it won't be necessary."

Early the next morning, the emperor stopped court.

The ministers who entered the palace to prepare for the court meeting were all at a loss, except for the well-informed eunuchs who came to Ding Guogong Xiao Yuan, and their attitude seemed to be more attentive than before.

Xiao Yuan naturally didn't scratch his head.

In the past, it was common for Xiao Shu to stay in the palace to serve the Empress Dowager, so it was not a big deal in Xiao Yuan's view that she didn't come back last night, and she usually returned the next morning.

Unexpectedly, after he returned to the mansion, he still did not see anyone.

Just as he was about to send someone to inquire, the housekeeper outside reported with a shocked expression that the **** from the palace had delivered an order.

This time Xiao Yuan was quite frightened, thinking that something serious had happened, when he heard the decree in the hall, he saw that the person who came to announce the decree was the **** Wang Xinyi, who held the authority in the palace, and was even more disturbed.

But Wang Xinyi was all smiles: "Congratulations to the Duke, congratulations to the Duke!"

Xiao Yuan was stunned, momentarily at a loss: "What are you congratulating?"

Wang Xinyi is an old fox in the palace. He thought that what happened last night was carefully planned by Mrs. Xiao, while Xiao Yuan was just pretending, so he stretched out his hand and patted Xiao Yuan on the shoulder, with a hint of coquettishness in his smile: " Ling Ai stayed in Qianqing Palace last night, so she dare not call Miss Xiao this morning, she will be called 'Xian Concubine Empress'!"

Xiao Yuan was stunned at first, but then his face changed drastically: "What did you say?!"

"Really, you didn't see the battle when you came to pass the decree this morning!" Xiao Dingfei's eyes were shining brightly, and when he described the scene this morning, he even danced, lest Jiang Xuening would not believe it, "What precious jade, The silk, gold and silver were all poured down like running water. I got up early in the morning to see, oh, it’s like a whole yard! I only found out after asking, Xiao Shu’s stinky **** went to the palace to sleep the emperor overnight Yes, but I saved myself some face and became a concubine directly! Hahaha you didn't see Xiao Yuan's face, I think he was about to throw up..."

"..."

Jiang Xuening's fingers were holding the teacup, and slowly tightened one by one.

It's still in the theater right now.

The snow-white pear blossoms have already bloomed early, hanging on the wall, and the wind blows as thin as paper; the sound of silk and bamboo comes from the stage below, accompanied by the soft language of Wu Nong in the south. The lingering singing drew applause from the audience around.

The private seats upstairs are quiet.

Because he was planning a marriage proposal in secret, Xiao Ding wanted to inform Jiang Xuening of the outside situation very much, so these days they often meet each other, and they always choose this theater. One is that people come and go, the most dangerous is the safest; the other is that the two of them are generally good-natured, they are both fun and happy, and they are not willing to find any overly serious tea garden qin shop.

Xiao Dingfei also wanted to tell Jiang Xuening about the rumors and gossips he heard along the way, so as to make her happy.

But just after taking a sip of tea to moisten her throat and start speaking, when she saw her gloomy and tense complexion by mistake, her heart skipped a beat, and she stopped her voice unconsciously: "What's wrong with you?"

Stay overnight in Qianqing Palace, concubine!

These words pierced into Jiang Xuening's ears like needles, making it hard for her to feel even half of the relief after the sting!

"She can really do it..."

In the previous life, Xiao Shu was Jiang Xuening's sworn enemy.

Those days when I was studying with Fengchen Palace, it was conveniently the bright moon in the sky and the bright pearl on the ground. With a better background than her, higher education than her, and a good friend with Shen Zhiyi, everyone follows her.

Later, the other party also entered the palace, her mother's family was powerful, she won people's hearts, and she was backed by the old witch, the Queen Mother. A lot of losses.

In Jiang Xuening's eyes, Xiao Shu acted properly and calculated well. She was a model of a noble girl cultivated by the aristocratic family in the capital. She was definitely more suitable for the position of queen than her weedy temperament.

In her bones, she should be arrogant and conceited.

Even in this life, Jiang Xuening has no intention of underestimating the enemy.

But she didn't expect that Xiao Shu would be so self-sufficient that she would commit herself to Shen Lang—

For a moment, an unprecedented feeling of bewilderment welled up in her heart, making Jiang Xuening feel like a fog, and then turned into an unspeakable absurdity, which even made her laugh out loud: "Times change, and she also has When forced to this field..."

Xiao Dingfei inexplicably felt a chill running down his back.

He cautiously approached Jiang Xuening, looked at her expression, and said, "Shouldn't she be happy like this? She has no name and no distinction. She entered the palace under the name of visiting the Queen Mother, but stayed in Qianqing Palace. She is the one in the brothel." Prostitutes can’t do this, right? Those who come out to sell have to collect money first. It’s good for her to give it away for free, and she’s not afraid that the emperor won’t give her money? Now the whole capital is talking about her, so I won the position of concubine, but my reputation has been ruined under this stupid move."

"Crazy move?" Jiang Xuening sneered, "You think she is really free, is the emperor's concubine really free?"

The Xiao family is currently in a vortex of criticism, but the emperor's attitude has always been ambiguous.

Although tomorrow is the choice of concubine, it is impossible for Shen Jie to choose Xiao Shu as his concubine at the risk of the world. This person is elegant and sentimental, but he has a cowardly part in his nature. When she married him and became a princess, seeing that he always seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages, she is not willing to get involved in many court battles.

But his imperial brother Shen Lang is a completely different person.

Although the emperor in the previous life was extremely short-lived, she "died suddenly due to illness" two years after she married Shen Jie, and she had no more contact with her except for the family banquet in the palace on Mid-Autumn Festival and New Year's Eve, but Jiang Xuening It's hard to forget that the other party looked down at people with sinister eyes while sitting on the throne.

Moody, repeated indulgence.

I remember that the last time she entered the palace as a princess was during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

At that time, Shen Jie had already been established as the emperor's younger brother, and Shen Lang had been taking Wushi powder refined by alchemists for a long time. He slumped on the throne with a dazed expression on his face, seeing Shen Jie walking in hand in hand with her, his gloomy eyes fell on her, after saying a few words, Shen Jie realized something was wrong, and said that he had something to say to Shen Jie alone Lang said, let her step down first.

She felt uneasy and bowed her head to leave.

But until she retreated to the side hall and sat down to wait, she still felt that poisonous snake-like eyes were still sticking to her body, which made her feel a chill.

I don't know what the two brothers talked about that day, Shen Jie, who was always peaceful and refined, came out with a livid face, went back to the palace and went into the study, and never came out.

Jiang Xuening was still willing to curry favor with this husband at that time.

She thought about letting the kitchen stew a cup of chicken fir squab soup, and brought it to the study herself in the middle of the night.

As usual, she would come in and out of the study room with her.

But someone stopped her outside this day.

The boy went in to communicate, and Shen Jie came out.

When the door of the study outside was opened, Jiang Xuening saw many people sitting inside. There was a corner of a snow-white Taoist robe on the position next to the window, leaning against Duobaoge, Xie Wei turned his face and met her gaze. But before she could react, the door was already closed, and standing in front of her was Shen Jie who smiled gently at her.

Shen Jie personally took the cup of soup she brought, and said that he would return to the room later, and then ordered his servants to take her back to the room carefully.

Jiang Xuening went back to lie down, but it took a long time to fall asleep.

Until it was daylight, a body that was a little chilly crawled under the already warm blanket and hugged her. She struggled to open her eyes, and saw that the window paper was already dark blue after dawn.

When she sees Shen Lang next time, it will be in the grand coffin that the Emperor Daxing passed away...

Therefore, Jiang Xuening really doesn't know much about the emperor who is currently controlling the lives of others, but from all kinds of clues, it can be deduced that he is definitely not a benevolent emperor who is dedicated to the world.

Shen Lang is more like a lunatic.

Xiao Shu framed her with Yu Ruyi at a young age, and she was not a kind person.

If she hadn't paid enough, Shen Lang wouldn't have made her a concubine regardless of the people in the world. Moreover, the emperor's thoughts are really hard to predict, not to mention sending someone back to the mansion for canonization early in the morning, and letting people stay in the palace. The situation of being ridiculed by everyone in the world is not cruel!

After carefully sorting out what happened before and after, the emperor's attitude towards the Xiao family obviously made Xiao Shu feel the crisis, and the old hag in the Palace of Compassionate Ning was willing to give up her own daughter, so what is her niece?

Xiao Shu is arrogant.

In the previous life, she had exhausted all her efforts to compete with her for the position of empress. When she was a concubine, the ostentation of welcoming her into the palace was even worse than that of the main empress. If she wanted her to go to a foreign country to get married, how could she agree?

Yes.

Indeed, this is the only way.

Jiang Xuening lowered her gaze, looked at the beautiful teacup in her hand, and said to herself: "To survive with a broken tail, to fight back from the jedi, I don't know whether I overestimated her or underestimated her."

She originally thought that Xiao Shu would disdain doing such a thing of humiliation and commitment...

Xiao Dingfei could already clearly feel that her emotions were not right, and after thinking about it, he understood where the crux of the matter was—

Princess Leyang!

Xiao Shu, who was originally clamored by everyone to replace Shen Zhiyi in marriage, has already been made an imperial concubine. Is there any reason in the world for the emperor's woman to marry? Xiao Shu seemed to have a bad reputation, but she saved herself!

That Shen Zhiyi...

"Snapped!"

The half-full teacup flew up and hit the beautiful painting screen in front of it, and it was instantly shattered. The cold tea splashed everywhere, staining the beautiful landscape painted on the screen.

Jiang Xuening stared blankly and didn't move for a long time.
