There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 79
Xia Houjue has been very busy recently.

Although there was nothing serious in court, Emperor Jing Yuan didn't send him any errands, and even the empress has been quiet recently.

But because of the foreigners, he was buried in his study all day long, and he even refused the invitation of several princes to go out to enjoy flowers and outings.

Tang Wanning didn't want to disturb him, so after taking Yun Shi in, she went to play with her own.

As long as there is no imminent fire, she doesn't care about the backyard.

On this day, the plum blossoms in Nongcuiju bloomed.

Meng Yuyao originally wanted to break a few sticks and put them in her room to commemorate her dead love, but Yun just happened to see her.

The two side concubines lived in the same courtyard, so it was inevitable that they bumped into each other, and Yun Shi was flustered at leisure, so he started to make trouble out of nothing.

"Yo!"

"Who am I? It turns out to be Sister Meng!"

"Why... is it comfortable to live in the side hall? Do you want to move to the main hall?"

Meng Yuyao gritted her teeth: "No need!"

She still firmly believes that her living in the side hall is only temporary.

Yun's background is not as good as his own, and it is just a coincidence that he can live in such a good courtyard.

His Highness the Crown Prince just punished himself for being with the Queen and betraying him. As long as His Highness calms down, she will be able to find another place to live, or...let this Yun family move out of here.

After all, she is a side concubine, a side concubine from the Meng family who can't even offend the crown prince.

The Meng family is a scholarly scholar, and has a very high status and prestige in the minds of scholars. Even the emperor would not act rashly, let alone the crown prince.

She is extremely confident in her parentage.

What is Yun's?However, she was born in a small family, and she was just a puppet who curry favor with the empress. How can she be compared with her?

After thinking about this clearly, Meng Yuyao stopped talking to Yun's.

"Since sister Yun is fine, I will leave!"

She turned around with the plum blossoms and was about to leave, how could Yun Xianmeng let her go lightly.

"Sister, what are you afraid of, don't go!"

"I heard that my sister is knowledgeable and talented. My sister wrote a plum blossom poem. I want to ask my sister to comment on it. You will not be unhappy!"

This reason is very valid.

If you don't go, it means you are stingy. If you go, you will be really angry.

After thinking about it, Meng Yuyao said that she was not feeling well.

"Oh, sister, don't be modest, just for a while, let's go!"

Yun couldn't help but pull Meng Yuyao away.

Meng Yuyao was unwilling in every possible way, but it was hard to shirk.

……

Tang Wanning has been a little bored recently, and the capital city that just finished the new year is a bit deserted after the festival.

She wondered if she could take advantage of this period of time when no one was paying attention, and sneak out for a walk in disguise as a man.

But this requires Xia Houjue's consent.

The palace was heavily guarded, and without Xia Houjue's secret approval, she would not be able to get out.

In the past, in TV dramas and novels, it was actually impossible for women to sneak out without moving.

If the defense was so loose, the emperor would have been assassinated hundreds of times.

The ancient supreme ruling class would never make such a mistake.

After much deliberation, Tang Wanning decided to go find Xia Houjue and see how busy he was recently.

When I came to Chongming Hall, I saw Li Dequan guarding outside the door. He wanted to inform, but Tang Wanning raised her hand to stop him.

"I'll go in by myself!"

Li Dequan hesitated for a moment, and had no choice but to step back honestly.

The Crown Princess wanted to enter, but he really didn't dare to stop her.

……

in the study.

Xia Houjue was sitting in front of the desk, holding a book and reading it intently. There were also many strange books of different thicknesses beside him.

As soon as Tang Wanning entered, she was attracted by a thick book with a kangaroo on the cover.

"this is……"

Xia Houjue glanced at her and said an extremely unfamiliar name.

Tang Wanning had never heard of it, and she didn't really want to, so she sat on the side and flipped through it for a while, then put the book aside.

"Your Highness, I want to leave the palace!"

Xia Houjue refused without even thinking about it: "No way!"

"why?"

"This is the rule, you should have known it before you married in!" Xia Houjue's face was expressionless, and he didn't even take his eyes off the book.

Tang Wanning: "..."

"Isn't it okay for me to dress up as a man? I want to go out for a walk. You know I haven't been in the capital yet."

Xia Houjue was still categorical: "If you can't do it, you can't do it!"

"Women in the palace can't do it unless the emperor personally orders it!"

"Whatever you want, Gu can bring it for you, or you can ask someone to bring it in quietly, but you... definitely can't leave the palace!"

The royal family has strict rules, which have always been like this, and no one has dared to break them for more than a hundred years.

The most important thing is, does this stupid woman know how dangerous it is outside the palace? She has been protected so well since she was a child, and her heart is simple and straightforward. She thinks that there are people covering her here like the Northwest, and she can mess around?

Tang Wanning was depressed for a while, and finally lowered her head in disappointment.

"OK then!"

"but……"

When all thoughts were lost, Xia Houjue suddenly turned around.

"If you really want to go out, it's not impossible!"

"Really? What way?!" Her eyes lit up.

"The only way is, if Gu encounters an unimportant errand or travels, you can follow him!"

"It's a pity that I haven't encountered such a thing for several years. If you are patient, you might as well wait!" Xia Houjue smiled.

But the eyes are extremely serious, it doesn't look like they are fooling her.

Tang Wanning felt that something in her heart was shattered, and with a 'pop', it shattered into pieces.

have to!A rule is a rule, an arm cannot twist a thigh.

He was about to get up and leave depressed, but he heard a sudden noise in front of him.

Before Li Dequan could stop it, the sound had already reached the porch in front of the door.

"Hey, master Yun, no, you can't break into Chongming Palace!"

"Dead eunuch, get out of the way!" Yun Shi was furious.

After pushing Li Dequan away, she rushed in angrily, and then started crying.

"Your Highness!"

"Your Highness! You have to decide for me!"

"Sister Meng bullied the concubine earlier than the concubine entered the palace! Woooo..."

Tang Wanning was a little dazed, Xia Houjue had a headache, and her face was also very dark.

"What happened?"

Yun's wept and told the story again.

She couldn't hear her sobbing and sobbing, to the effect that she wanted to trouble Meng, but they ignored her and left her there alone.

Tang Wanning couldn't bear it anymore.

The Liu family had just left for a good job, and now the Yun family has come again.

Could it be that Xia Houjue is too good-tempered, how come none of these women are afraid of him?

Just as he was thinking, Xia Houjue sneered.

"Is what you said true?"

Yun's tears stopped immediately.

"Of course it's true. Your Highness, tell me, does Sister Meng have any opinion on concubines?"

"The concubine is married to the empress, and the emperor personally rewards her. Your Highness, you must be the master of the concubine!"

The two big backers moved out, and Xia Houjue's face fell instantly.

"Oh? Are you wronged?"

"Yes!"

"Do you want Gu to vent your anger on you?"

"Yes!"

"That's good!" Xia Houjue's lips curled slightly.

"Li Dequan, find some broken tiles and scatter them in the yard, and let Concubine Yun side kneel there to vent her anger!"
