Hairpin Phoenix

   Chapter 255 Pain

   In the early morning of the second day, Concubine Meng woke up.

  Emperor Yongjia went back to the Wenhua Hall when he reached the third watch. Princess Jing'an couldn't stand it, and was helped to go to the wing to sleep. The eldest prince was standing beside the bed.

   After Meng Guifei opened her eyes, her eyes were dull and blank.

   The eldest prince, who stayed up all night and didn't sleep, had red eyes and a hoarse voice: "Mother, you finally woke up."

   Concubine Meng did not make a sound.

The eldest prince thought that Concubine Meng Gui was weak and unable to speak, so he hurriedly whispered: "Concubine Mu, stay with the green hills, not afraid of running out of firewood. If Concubine Meng gets angry, what should I do with Jing'an? Concubine Mu is for us. , also hold on to this breath and take good care of your body."

   "I was afraid that the concubine would be angry, so I kept the matter of the establishment of the reserve a secret."

"Cousin didn't block her mouth, but she didn't have any bad intentions. Last night, the mother and concubine fainted, and the father, in a rage, said that he would cut the cousin's tongue. Someone sent a letter to the third brother..."

   After talking for a long time, Concubine Meng Gui still did not respond.

   The eldest prince finally realized something was wrong, and reached out to hold Concubine Meng Gui's cold hand: "Mother, mother!"

   shouted several times, and the voice trembled.

   Concubine Meng finally glanced at the eldest prince.

   That look, like a spark that is about to burn out, is bleak and hopeless.

  The eldest prince was heartbroken, holding Meng Guifei's hand and weeping: "I know that the mother is angry because of the establishment of the heir. Aren't I sad or disappointed?"

"My father has always loved me the most. Ever since I was five years old, my father has personally taught me to squat and box. I was the first to go to court and served the pen and ink by my father's side. My father taught me patiently, better than my second brother. Be good."

   "I always thought that the royal father would make me the crown prince. I never thought that the royal father would not think so at all."

   "No matter how much my father hurts me, I won't make my son-in-law the heir. In the father's heart, the direct son is more important."

   "The concubine and the queen have been fighting for so many years, and she is better than her in everything except the status of a wife. But in the end, we still lost to their mother and son. The queen mother is unwilling and resentful, I know it all."

   "But right now, we can't do anything. As long as the mother and the queen get better and hold the father's heart over, we still have a chance to turn over. If the mother and concubine just let go, it will make the relatives and enemies happy."

   I don't know which sentence touched Concubine Meng.

   Concubine Meng moved her fingers reluctantly, her voice faintly inaudible: "Relax, don't worry, I won't die."

  The eldest prince wiped his tears with his sleeve and whispered: "Yes, concubine mother must live a good life and wait for the future!"

   Concubine Meng hummed and closed her eyes.

   She will no longer seek death, she will live well.

   Her heart for Li Yuan died, but her heart for the throne was even hotter.

   In this world, no one can be trusted. The man who once loved with all his heart has long since changed. She didn't notice it at all, thinking that she could live her life recklessly by relying on his favor. Now that she thinks about it, how pathetic and ridiculous.

   When she didn't know her life or death, he mercilessly dealt with the Marquis of Guangping, and made Li Jing the crown prince.

Ah!

  Dog man!

  …

   One morning, Empress Qiao, Concubine Qin and Concubine Su came and went, while Princess Jing'an, the first concubine, stayed by Concubine Meng. The third prince concubine Meng Yunluo also came, knelt beside the bed and cried and pleaded guilty.

   "Aunt, it was my fault last night. I shouldn't talk nonsense and make my aunt angry. Please forgive me this time! I won't dare to talk nonsense in the future."

   Meng Yunluo cried and cried endlessly, and Concubine Meng Gui was upset when she heard it, and glanced at Princess Jing An.

   Let her go!

  Princess Jing'an understood and stood up to help Meng Yunluo: "Sister-in-law, don't cry yet. Concubine Mu has already woken up. Don't mention what happened last night. Don't take the father's angry words to heart."

   Of course it was an angry talk. Is it really possible to cut off the tongue of my daughter-in-law!

   Overnight, Meng Yunluo was actually not that scared anymore. This morning, I entered the palace to plead guilty, mainly to put on a gesture of bowing my head and admitting my mistake.

  Meng Yunluo's cries gradually stopped, she stood up following Princess Jing'an's hand strength, and choked in a low voice, "It's good that my aunt doesn't get mad at me. I just hope that my aunt's body will get better soon."

   Meng Guifei didn't have the mood to care for her, so she closed her eyes and turned her head inward.

  Princess Jing An had to answer: "Mother and concubine want to rest, third sister-in-law, let's go outside and talk." Anyway, she dragged Meng Yunluo out.

After the morning was gone, Emperor Yongjia came again, with disgusting concern and anxiety on his face: "Jiaojiao, you are too temperamental. The envoy Zhou said, you have hurt your vitality, you must calm down. Live and nurture. Don't be tempted again. Otherwise, the root of the disease will fall in the future."

   "If you have three longs and two shorts, what should I do?"

   Fake dog man.

   A bunch of wives and concubines, and groups of children. The crown prince is established, and the direct descendant of the emperor will be born in a few months. She has three longs and two shorts. He is still sitting on the dragon chair and living well.

   Could it be that he will die with her and go with her?

   Concubine Meng Gui thought in her heart, tears fell from the corners of her eyes, and her voice was weak: "The concubine knows it's wrong, please the emperor punish the concubine."

  Emperor Yongjia also had red eyes, and reached out to wipe her tears for Concubine Meng: "You get better soon, don't bother yourself anymore. I have already thought about the matter of establishing a reserve, and I can't change it."

   "Prince is broad and benevolent, broad-minded, and will not tolerate your mother and son. The queen is also a virtuous and generous person. You made a big mistake, and I can't go unpunished."

"You were seriously injured, and you couldn't leave the palace originally, just closed the palace to recuperate. You have to drop your rank. It's all a false name, don't hold your breath. After a year or two, this matter will fade away. Then restore your position as a noble concubine and let you out of the palace."

   said affectionately in his mouth, and he was not soft-hearted at all. He took the title of Meng family, demoted her position, and closed the palace gate of Yanxi Palace.

  Dog man.

   Concubine Meng Gui scolded fiercely in her heart, with a hint of shame on her face, she choked and whispered, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Emperor Yongjia thought that Concubine Meng had finally surrendered and bowed his head. He felt relieved and comforted for a long time: "You were born in the palace to recuperate, and your clothing and food are the same as before. With me here, no one dares to treat you harshly. "

Then, Emperor Yongjia got up and went to the Jiaofang Palace, and said to Queen Qiao: "Concubine Meng Gui has ordered the assassination of the Lu family, and I can't forgive him lightly. From today, Concubine Meng Gui is downgraded to the position of concubine, and the palace gate of Yanxi Palace is closed. Without my will, no one can enter or leave the Yanxi Palace."

   Is this a punishment?

   Mingming was protecting Concubine Meng so that no one would disturb her to recover from her injuries.

   Descending from a noble concubine to a concubine position is neither painful nor itchy, what kind of punishment. As long as Emperor Yongjia said a word, restoring the position of noble concubine is a matter of one sentence.

   Queen Qiao sneered in her heart and said warmly, "Your Majesty Shengming."

  Bah!

  Dog man!
