The Bright Moon Ballad

Chapter 57 The End (Final Chapter 6)

Chapter 57 The Doomed End (End 6)

In August of the 13th year of Yongzheng, the day I was worried about finally came. It's autumn. I'm teasing a newly bought brother in the yard with my mother. Ama came over and said, "Mu Nian, there are people in the capital. You can clean up and go with them."

The bamboo stick in his hand fell. Has he gone?

When I went in to pack my things, my mother took a stack of letters and said, "I don't know how much you and Ama have committed, and I have suppressed all the emperor's letters. In fact, we know that the letter is just for you to go back to Beijing. We asked you and you said you didn't want to go, so we didn't give you the letter. We just wanted you not to worry. And the cough dew we give you every spring is also sent by people in the capital.

I know that those flowers are delivered on time every year. How could I not know it was him? He received the letter and said, "Mom, thank you and Ama. I want to be your daughter in my next life and repay you.

Mother hugged me and smiled, "Silly girl, it's not gone. Why do you say such a thing? Come back early. I'll wait for you at home."

home, I finally heard this word. I have a home, but I know I will never come back. There is always a hunch that my life will also end.

Ouyang Xizhou came to pick me up. He now seems to be a first-class bodyguard in the palace. When he saw me, he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty is seriously ill and wants to see you. Come with me."

After saying a few words to Ama and his mother, I got into the carriage he arranged.

The carriage swayed violently, but I grabbed his letter tightly. The first letter was written by Ama's first move to the governor of Jiangxi: Evening thought, if the mind changes, the small courtyard will keep it for you. The second letter, the third letter and the fourth letter are all the same sentence, but when the thirteenth master went, he wrote: Mu Nian, the thirteenth brother has left, and all the people I can speak have left me. Just ask you to come back.

What kind of despair should he beg for me? He is such an arrogant person, but he begs me to go back. In such a big palace, without anyone to speak, how lonely and helpless he should be, but he has to force himself to work hard and establish the majesty of the emperor. How could I make myself so cruel and put him in such a painful situation?

I kept begging God, hoping that I could see him before he left. Ouyang Xizhou was afraid that I couldn't stand the rushing on the road and advised me to rest several times, but I still insisted on rushing day and night. The horses changed one after another, and I also lost and vomited several times, and finally rushed to the capital.

It was evening, and Ouyang Xizhou insisted that I go to the hospital to rest before entering the palace. I had to go to the hospital. Yuer is already Fujin of Ouyang Xizhou. She is a little fuller with her hair, and she has already lost her previous perverseness.

"Mu Nian, you are finally willing to come back. I haven't seen you for a long time." Yuer came up and took my hand into the room, but left Ouyang Xizhou aside.

"She has been tired for so many days. You can get her some food and ask her to sleep. I'll take her to the palace tomorrow." Ouyang Xizhou Road.

Yuer blocked Ouyang Xizhou outside the door and said, "I know what I'm going to do. Don't come in before you reflect clearly."

Ouyang Xizhou had no choice but to stay outside the door. Thinking that the two of them had quarreled, Yuer's nature had not changed.

They are happy enemies, and I have nothing to worry about. I stopped Ouyang Xizhou, who was ready to leave, and said, "Lord Ouyang, you can take me to the palace after I'm freshen up. I'm not tired."

"Now the key has been issued at the palace gate. You can sleep peacefully, and it's not too late to go tomorrow."

"Please be flexible. Thank you in advance." I saluted that I didn't want to waste any more time, as if I were competing with his time again.

Yuer pulled me and said, "What are you doing with him like this? He will arrange it. Let's go in now to wash up, eat something, and ask him to take you in later. Otherwise, the emperor will be worried about seeing you so haggard."

I entered the house with Yuer. While Ren Yuer helped me freshen up, I wondered if I would encounter any obstacles when I entered the palace. After all, he had so many concubines. How could he allow me to get close to him? Now the harem is in charge of Concubine Xi. What kind of woman is she?

It turned out that it was Euke Su who came to pick me up from the Qianqing Palace. Ouyang Xizhou told me that he wanted to pick me up in the capital.

I followed Eunuch Su to the Qianqing Palace. It was late at night. More than a dozen guards stood on both sides of the palace gate and entered the palace gate. Inside, it was quiet, and several maids stood respectfully and motionless. Eunuch Su went in and reported that a graceful woman in gorgeous clothes came out. I think she should be Concubine Xi.

I saluted and said, "Princess Xi is auspicious."

She saw that my pupils were a little enlarged. She should be surprised by the scars on my neck and chin, but soon she smiled and said, "It seems true that you are smart. You haven't seen me but you can guess who I am."

"Thank you." I know I'm rude, but it's not like flattering his concubine.

She said, "Go in. I'm tired and go back first. Just ask Su Peisheng to inform me if there is anything."

I nodded and followed Grandpa Su into the room. The dim candlelight made the whole room unbearable. Grandpa Su waited by the door, and I went to the bedside and sat down.

He is asleep, frowning, and the heavy breathing will go up and down with his undulating chest.

I gently held his hand, but I didn't expect him to wake up and open his eyes to look at me.

After a long time, he didn't say anything. I laughed and said, "I'm back. Don't you have anything to say?" Just look at it like this."

After saying that, I felt that my hand was held tightly by him. He wanted to say something but his voice was hoarse. I said, "Go to sleep. I won't leave. Let's talk about it tomorrow."

He slowly closed his eyes. I was also tired and fell asleep by the bed. In a daze, I felt a hand touching my hair. I think it was him.

The next morning, I was woken up by a little girl. When I opened my eyes, I saw the little girl's big cake face, and then looked up at me as if a gorgeously dressed concubine seemed to look at me angrily. I wanted to salute her at least, but I was afraid that my hand would wake him up, so I had to nod and smile at the concubine.

"You are so bold that you don't salute when you see Concubine Qi." The little girl scolded angrily, obviously hindering the emperor's presence, and she lowered her voice.

I still didn't get up and said, "Please say good to Concubine Qi. I can't salute you. Please forgive me."

It's okay not to say it. As soon as she said it, the concubine Qi said angrily, "What are you? You are so... and it's scary."

Before she finished speaking, Eunuch Su came from the outside and said, "Hey, Empress Qi, Miss Mu Nian called in to serve the emperor. Your adult is a large number. Don't wake up the emperor, otherwise it's not enough for me to have ten heads."

Speaking of the emperor's concubine Qi, she had nothing to say. She just came forward to pull me away, thinking that she wanted to take care of him by herself. But I didn't know how strong he was to hold my hand. Concubine Qi didn't pull me away, but he woke up. In fact, I knew he had woken up long ago, so I was also trying to keep Qi Fei face off.

When Concubine Qi woke up, she quickly saluted and said, "The emperor is auspicious. My concubine woke up the emperor and deserved to die."

"Go down." He said.

Concubine Qi seemed to feel very aggrieved and called him: "The emperor's concubine is going to cook bird's nest porridge in person. The emperor has been sick and hasn't eaten anything these days. The concubine thought..."

He interrupted Concubine Qi and said, "Su Peisheng, from today on, no concubine is allowed to enter the Qianqing Palace except for Concubine Xi."

I had a triumphant joy when I saw Concubine Qi look at me when she went out, and I was a little worried. Will she retaliate against me in the future if she offend a high-ranking concubine in this way? On second thought, what do I think about the future? Now I just take good care of him. I owe him too much. Besides, I have prepared for the worst when I came.

When Concubine Qi went out, I realized that his momentum just now was pretending. After a few words, he was already weak and lay back ** to close his eyes to refresh himself. I think I'm seriously ill.

I got up and said, "Aunt Su, please ask someone to get some warm water and I will clean it for the fourth master."

At first, Grandpa Su was stunned and didn't understand why I was still called the Fourth Master now, but he didn't respond when he was lying down, so he answered, "If the girl wants to call me, just tell them, and I'm going to prepare water for you."

I thanked Grandpa Su and sat back by the bedside. He took my hand again as if he was asleep. I lowered my head and said in his ear, "I need to eat something to sleep. It's not good to have an empty stomach. I'll ask them to make some light porridge for you."

He nodded. It happened that Grandpa Su sent water and wiped it for him. I asked them to get some food.

After a few days, his spirit seems to have recovered. Concubine Xi always comes here in the afternoon. Every time she comes over, I go out of the room and walk outside the palace. First of all, what they said is something that I don't want to participate in. Second, Concubine Xi seems to be a good person, but I always can't like her. It should be said that I don't like the women in this palace very much, because there are too many lessons.

It rained lightly this day, and I didn't come out with an umbrella. Fortunately, since Princess Qi told me that day, I came out wearing the veil of the style worn by Islamic women, so I didn't get caught in the rain. He walked leisurely along the palace wall back to the Qianqing Palace.

"But I found the girl," Grandpa Su hurried over and said, "Why did the girl go so far? The Empress Xi left early. Long live the Lord saw that it was raining outside, and you hadn't come back yet and cursed in the Qianqing Palace. Long live Lord is better these days. I don't know how long it will take to raise him back.

I said, "Mr. Su, don't worry. Aren't I preparing to go back? It rained, and I hid from the rain for a while, so it was late.

"You'd better go with me quickly. Long live the old man is angry. The doctor is here."

Watching Grandpa Su trot forward, I also quickly followed him, but my legs and feet were not convenient, which was far away from Grandpa Su. How can it be so serious?

As soon as I entered the Qianqing Palace, I saw the imperial doctor coming in and out, and the eunuch was also holding things back and forth.

"Four brothers are auspicious." Euke Su suddenly saluted, and I saw the man in front of him. He was very similar to the fourth master, with no expression on his face, and his natural aura made people a little afraid.

This is the future Qianlong, Aixinjueluo Hongli. His awl-like eyes looked over, and I quickly bowed my head and saluted.

"Eunuch Su, you are good at serving Emperor Ama. What happened? You can't afford it." Although he said this to his father-in-law, he looked at me and said it. I knew he was warning me, but I didn't seem to have offended him.
