Chapter 3 [turning clouds and rain]
Chapter 3 [Cover the Clouds and Rain]
With the order of He Guifei, the guards dragged Rumo and Ju'er out of the hall, and their hands and feet were tied to the bench under them and could not move.
At this time, the queen was in the hall, leisurely peeling the prawns, and did not mean to stop them. She smiled and greeted the concubines beside her, "Sisters, eat quickly, don't let the two little girls destroy the banquet."
Concubine He turned her head and looked at the queen, "Sister, why do you think it's a little easy to work?"
"Why doesn't my sister say that it's more straightforward to kill people with a knife? It's a pity that I'm not so vicious. As the little girl Ju'er said, I've always been kind. On the contrary, it's your sister, and you give orders and ask the guards to raise sticks. This is the real way to wait for work and kill people with a knife, right? The lovely queen returned the words and glanced at the sound of the stick falling from outside the hall...
A stick fell down, and suddenly Ju'er and Rumo's clothes were opened. Their skin was as white as snow in an instant. Rumo gritted her teeth and endured the severe pain and shouted to Ju'er; "Ju'er, hold on, hold on, hold on..."
Once, two times, three times, the wooden stick hit the back like a pleated sound of brocade cloth, muffled and sounded. Ju'er couldn't stand it and cried fiercely, "I can't stand it. Mother, spare my life, spare my life, spare my life..."
Suddenly, Rumo heard the sound of her bones breaking. She thought that her bones must have been broken. The feeling of heart-breaking lung pain was numb. A strong smell of blood rushed into her nose. She thought that her back was already skin-opened, and her body was endless. But it was strange that the stick was not falling, but stopped instead. Is it an illusion? Are they tired of fighting?
I only heard a bodyguard reply; "Your concubine, this little girl has been killed, and I accidentally fell on her head."
"Orange... Orange... Orange... You killed Ju'er..." Ru Mo cried in disbelief. A little maid who was only 12 years old was beaten to death in an instant. Orange, who had just smiled brightly, was killed with a few sticks. This huge deep palace was even more sinister than the outside.
Concubine He slowly walked out, and her eyes gathered on Ru Mo's back, which had been beaten open. She hummed coldly, "Okay, I'm also tired. That's it. Put the one who is still alive into the prison and let her reflect on it." With a flash of light, she stared at the queen, "Have you ever been satisfied with my sister's punishment?"
There was a little evil in the queen's bright smile and said, "Why does my sister ask like this? Why do you and my sisters have to look at each other like this? Ru Mo is just a little girl."
"Is she a little girl? My sister knows better than anyone else, otherwise why bother to work like this? This girl is very smart. My sister must ask for her. At that time, my sister will be willing to let her go?" He Guifei shook her skirt, went down the steps, and gave it a deep smile at the queen.
The struggle in the harem has never stopped, and what Rumo caught up with today is the most insignificant part. In fact, it is also because she doesn't know how to protect herself and has become a real target!
When Rumo, who was beaten into a coma, woke up, she found that it was dark all around her. She couldn't twist her body. As long as she moved, the wound would hurt her heart and lungs. Suddenly, she heard the sound of the mouse gnawing at the wood, which scared her to lie on the ground of the cell and sobbing and sobbing...
"Leng Rumo, I didn't expect you to be afraid of mice?" There was a shrill voice in her ear, which was worse than the sound of a mouse. She bit her lips, looked up slightly, and her eyes were angry. "Eunuch Gao, you still have the face to come to see me. You killed my brother. I want to avenge you. I want to smash you into ten thousand pieces..."
"Little girl, your tone is not small. You can't protect yourself now. How can you find a miscellaneous family to revenge? You seem to be smart, but you are actually extremely stupid?" Mr. Gao covered his mouth with his hand, narrowed his eyes, and looked at Ru Mo in prison uniform as if he were enjoying the scenery.
"I won't let you go if I'm a ghost. You hurt our family and separated our relatives. As long as I have a breath, I will take revenge. I want to take the body of your father-in-law and pay tribute to my dead brother." Ru Mo was full of hatred and excitement.
"Little girl, the miscellaneous family appreciates your courage, but after all, you are still too young. You are still far from fighting with the miscellaneous family. In fact, you should not hate the miscellaneous family. Even if the father-in-law dies, there will be ten, or even a hundred high-in-law. The miscellaneous family is just for the master. There are many slaves who can do things in the palace, so as long as you are behind If the master doesn't let go of your Leng family, how can you talk about revenge with the miscellaneous family?" Eunuch Gao held the iron fence of the cell, analyzed slowly and sneered, "Little girl, you are not beaten inexplicably. There are the rules in the palace in the palace. You are sharp, burning yourself, and eager for success. The stick you attracted is all for it yourself. The miscellaneous family said that the noble concubine beats lightly. She should want it. It's your life."
"Ju'er was beaten to death alive. His father died in prison and his brother died. Is there no law in this palace?" Ru Mo sobbed and roared angrily.
"Woth girl, power is the king's law. There is never a shortage of wronged ghosts in this deep palace. Whether you live or not depends on your life. If your life is hard, you will climb up and your life is short. You should cut your breath quickly now so as not to suffer, and waste less food in this palace." After saying that, when he was about to leave, he came to the door of the prison and whispered, "Stupid girl, do you know how to borrow a knife to kill people?"
Ru Mo suddenly woke up, but her mouth was still hard. "I don't know what to kill people with a knife. Do you know what to do?"
"I don't know what's good or bad, it's time for you to reflect on yourself." After listening to Ru Mo's words, Grandpa Gao smiled strangely and walked out of the cell without looking back. "I didn't expect that Leng Qiulin and Jia Tuanyue could give birth to such a stubborn daughter? It's rare!"
On this dark and cold night in the starry sky, there was always a painful moan in the cell. The wound on her back had festered and oozed blood, and her forehead was as hot as a stove, which started a high fever.
"Father, mother, Huidi, don't leave, don't leave Rumo, I'm afraid..." This is the third day that Grandpa Gao brought Ru Mo out of the cell. She is still unconscious and has been talking nonsense. At this time, there is only half of her life left.
The imperial doctor cleaned the wound for Rumo and applied ointment, but the wound on her back still did not heal. Instead, it became more and more inflamed, red, swollen and ulcerated.
"General Manager Gao, you can't feed the medicine at all. How can Weichen treat it?" The imperial doctor sighed helplessly. He couldn't cure this little girl who didn't open her mouth at all.
Gao Gong Gong thought for a moment, called a little eunuch and whispered, "Go and get a few big bowls of ginseng soup."
When the imperial doctor heard this, he was shocked to stop it and said, "General Manager Gao, this ginseng soup can't be served to this girl. This girl's physique is weak. If she drinks ginseng soup, I'm afraid her life will be faster?"
"She won't die." Mr. Gao glanced blankly at the imperial doctor and affirmed with great certainty.
The ginseng soup was served. The doctor opened Rumo's teeth, sprinkled half of a large bowl of ginseng soup, and poured it in for her. Half an hour later, Rumo coughed a few times and slowly opened her eyes.
"Woman, the miscellaneous family knows that you still have something on your mind and can't bear to die." Grandpa Gao looked at Rumo, who came back to life, and sighed and smiled.
Ru Mo squeezed her lips, looked around, and frowned, "I've come out?"
Grandpa Gao was stunned, "How can I hear what you mean? It's like living in a prison? If so, the miscellaneous family will send you back now.
"Oh, I can't live anymore. That's enough. Thank you, father-in-law." Ru Mo is the main guest, just like the prison opened by her family. If she can't live, she can't live. However, the "thank you" that comes out of her mouth can't hear a trace of sincerity. Who makes her born with this bad temper?
Ru Mo is young and has a good foundation. In a few days, her wound scabs and has begun to heal. After the fever subsided, she can't stay in **. A few days of tossing makes her obviously lose a circle more weight than before, but it is more beautiful.
"Eunuch Gao, Rumo has been reflecting these days. She knows that she was too stupid before, and she will learn to act cautiously in the future. I hope she can give me more advice." Ru Mo knelt on the ground, turned her eyes, revealed her cleverity, and bowed to Grandpa Gao.
"Woman, do you know what it is to hide from the world? No matter how much you have the talent to learn, you should learn when to reveal and when not to reveal?" Grandpa Gao sniffed the snuff bottle, closed his eyes, and taught slightly.
"Ru Mo remembers her father-in-law's teachings. Ru Mo doesn't want revenge at this time..." Ru Mo looked at Grandpa Gao in an instant with a pair of pitiful eyes and hesitated.
Grandpa Gao opened his eyes, like eyes that could see everything. He stared at Rumo and said suspiciously, "Woman, if you don't want revenge, what do you think?"
Ru Mo's face became colder and more serious. She said with a blasphemy smile, "I want someone with supreme power in my hand."
"That's right, girl. The miscellaneous family is really right. You are so similar to your mother. She did a great thing in this harem, which can be said to be upside down..." Halfway through Gao Gong's words, he stopped and looked uncertain.
"What did my mother do back then?" Ru Mo asked tentatively.
Grandpa Gao smiled slackly and instantly changed the topic, "Woman, the queen, you can't go back for the time being. Let's send you to Mu Guicubine. She is gentle and virtuous. She is a good-tempered person. You won't suffer losses if you go there."
"Why are you so kind to me? You are the murderer of my brother. I will avenge you at any time. Aren't you afraid?" Ru Mo studied his father-in-law and doubted.
Mr. Gao smiled and took a breath, "The miscellaneous family knows that there are too many things in this palace. Even if you don't want the life of the miscellaneous family, the miscellaneous family will not live long. Girl, this harem is like a pool of turbid water. If you come in, you will never clear it.
"My father is a self-clear person. Isn't he still charged? If it's really muddy water, I'll have to go there." Ru Mo said firmly with tears, but with her little girl, can she really turn over the clouds?
The wind is gentle and the sun is beautiful, and the peach blossoms in the royal garden are blooming brightly. When Ru Mo passed by the royal garden, she couldn't help picking up the petals that were blown like a saucer by the wind. Suddenly, a petal fell into her neck, itchy and cold. When she was about to reach it, she suddenly felt a burst of warmth and soft movements and softly, and helped her take out the petals in her neck. She was stunned. Turning around, he was stunned in an instant, and his heart beat and looked at the almost beautiful man in front of him...
Flowers and rain all over the sky, peaches and willows compete for beauty. Everything is like a layer of red gold, reflecting the corners of his robe flying, and the jade belt. She looked at him infatuation, as if she had a feeling of familiarity. He has a noble and extraordinary temperament, exquisite facial features, a tall figure, a handsome face, starry eyes, a It is elegant and noble.
"The grass is green and the willow is yellow, and the peach blossoms are messy and the fragrance of plum blossoms..." A poem couldn't help chanting from Ru Mo's mouth, with an innocent smile on her porcelain-like cheeks.
"Girl, are you reading 'Chunsi'?" The man in front of him was surprised for a moment and smiled faintly and gently.
"Uh-huh!" Ru Mo nodded gently and her heart flustered. "His eyes are so familiar. Will it be that night..." As she thought, she was about to turn around, but she saw a person walking slowly not far away. It was getting closer and closer. She stared at her shocked eyes, looked straight ahead and exclaimed, "Sister."
The person who came was Leng Xinmo, the eldest daughter of the Leng family. I saw that she was dressed as a palace concubine, dressed in an orange-red embroidered gauze, and her head was inserted with golden jade hairpin. It can be said that hibiscus is not as beautiful makeup. The wind in the water hall is pearly and fragrant. What a beauty.
Ru Mo was so excited that she took two steps forward and took her sister's hand. She was suspicious, "Sister, why did you enter the palace?"
Leng Xinmo was about to answer her sister's words, but she caught a glimpse of the person next to her. In an instant, she fainted a line of red tide, brushed her peach blush cheeks and smiled and rippled. She bowed down and said, "Your Majesty."
Ru Mo followed her sister's line of sight, her tone was slow, tossing between her lips and teeth, and frowned, "Are you the prince?"
Looking at the little girl in front of her, she laughed a little coolness of the wind and bright moon under the bright sun. Her words were solemn but unquestionable, "My surname is Xiao Mingyan. Do you have any doubts about the girl?" He turned around and asked, "Are you sisters?"
"Yes, we are our own sisters. This is my sister Leng Rumo." Leng Xinmo answered and looked at Ru Mo, "sister, why did you come to the palace?"
"Hee hee, just with me the other day... Oh... Not much like... Ha ha..." Ru Mo stared at Xiao Yan stupidly and forgot to answer her sister. She was incoherent and suspicious in her heart. "The prince in front of her is really not very similar to the man in black who was masked that night. How can a prince be covered in the middle of the night? Maybe he is not the same person?"
Leng Xinmo looked at her strange sister and smiled, "Moer, what's wrong with you? What's your sister asking you?"
When Xiao Yan heard the word "Mo'er", his expression changed slightly and he murmured in consters; "Mo'er..."
"Oh, Moer is used to it among our sisters. Please don't be surprised." Leng Xinmo hurriedly answered the words, pulled her sister closer, and leaned down to Xiao Yan, "Your Majesty, Xinmo and her sister have just met, and there is still a lot to say. Excuse me." He turned around and left with Ru Mo.
"Your Majesty... Xiao Yan..." Ru Mo was pulled away by her sister, turned her head mischievous, made a grimace to Xiao Yan, and smiled sweetly. Since she was a child, she had never seen such a beautiful person. She wanted to use "beautiful" to describe him, but the other layer means that beautiful men are evil. This game is getting more and more fun.
Xiao Yan stared at this lively back, holding a sachet embroidered with the word "mo". He was silent for a moment and secretly doubted, "This pair of sisters, who is the real owner of this sachet? If Leng Xinmo's sister is the owner of the sachet, why did Leng Xinmo admit to me that she was the owner of the sachet? Will the seemingly simple sister be the man in black with excellent light skills?"
The sky outside the red painted window rail is full of purple clouds, and the afterglow of the sunset penetrates the half-closed door cracks, and the fragrance and brightness of the ground is sprinkled.
Leng Xinmo made the maids of honor retreat, took a step forward and hesitated; "How did my sister get into the palace?"
"It was the Duke Gao who sent someone to carry in the queen's side. Where's my sister?" Rumo's eyes turned red with excitement and pulled her sister to ask.
"That day, I went out to buy vegetables. I was knocked unconscious and brought into the palace. After that, I knew that it was the Queen's who brought me. Who let our surname be 'cold'?" Leng Xinmo sighed gently and narrated.
"What did the Queen say to her sister?" Ru Mo looked anxious, and her eyes were full of worry.
Leng Xinmo was silent for a long time and said bluntly, "Sister, do you know that our mother used to be a maid of honor?"
"I know, my mother told me." Rumo replied.
"Well, my mother once used a kind of incense in the palace, which fascinated the former emperor. Does my sister know what kind of incense it is?" Leng Xinmo tested her sister.
"What did my sister say about the kind of incense that my mother gave me? But my mother said that it was just ordinary incense. Ru Mo untied a small purse from her body and asked her sister.
Leng Xinmo took the purse and shook her head with a smile, "If the Queen wants this kind of incense, she won't be so laborious."
