033 forbidden place

One afternoon a few days later, Bai Shaoqing was preparing to take a break as usual, but he heard the queen's personal maid outside the house to visit. She didn't have much contact with the queen, not to mention the maid beside her. At this time, she didn't know what was going on. Although Bai Shaoqing was hesitant, he still promised to let her in. It is.

Unexpectedly, the maid of honor came to the house and sobbed. She knelt on the ground and kowtowed and cried, "Master... Go and save the Empress... Lord..."

Bai Shaoqing looked at her panic and comforted her a few words. She calmed down a little and cried, "The Empress went to Zhengyang Palace to see your majesty today. I don't know why she quarreled... She was originally kind and wanted to go to your majesty to discuss things, but she didn't know..."

When Bai Shaoqing heard such a thing, she couldn't help frowning slightly. Although she fell in love with Qin Mofeng, she never thought that she would participate in his harem, and she didn't say anything at the moment.

The maid looked at her and said, "Although the Empress is angry, she has always been strong. Even if the maidservant has been following the queen for more than five years, she has never seen half a tear, but this time... After she returned to the palace, she actually locked herself in the palace. The maid heard her crying clearly outside the door... This The Empress is very good to the maidservants, careful and easy-going. Seeing the maidservants like this, the maidservants are also very sad..." With her eyes turned red, and tears fell down again.

Bai Shaoqing looked at her situation, sighed and said, "You can talk to her well. Maybe she will be fine."

The maid nodded and said, "That's what the maidservant thought, but as soon as she turned around, she couldn't find her... Looking around, another maid of honor told the maidservant that she saw her go to the backyard alone... She was... She went with Bai Ling... The maidservant was so anxious that she thought of the words of the master. The Empress may still listen and come here.

Bai Shaoqing was shocked when he heard the words and said, "Is she alone?"

"That's not true. I knew about this and had let another maid of honor follow... I'm afraid... She can only persuade her for a while." He looked up at her with tears in his eyes.

Bai Shaoqing didn't want to get involved in such a thing, but she vaguely felt that the quarrel between the queen and Qin Mofeng had something to do with her. Thinking about it, she suddenly felt a little uneasy. Since she stopped practicing Voldo, although the hallucination can be stopped by the pills given by Lin Shu, her mood is obviously much more mobile than before. If you have ever been familiar with her, as long as you talk to her deeply, it is not difficult to find that the national teacher at this time is almost completely different from the cold goddess Xiang in the past.

Therefore, when she heard the maid's words, she suddenly felt that the situation was serious. She immediately stood up and asked the maid to lead her way to find the queen. Because it was the queen's private matter, she did not take the maid of honor in Xianhua Palace.

The two walked out of the palace gate and walked towards the deep palace. They turned around all the way and went deeper and deeper. In the depths of the inner palace, there were almost wood ponds around. Although Bai Shaoqing had been in the palace for a long time, she had never stepped on it. At this time, she had to follow the back of the palace maid in front of her.

After walking for a long time like this, I faintly saw a trace of white silk floating on the branches from the withered bushes. Someone was crying sadly under the tree, and the maid who led the way shouted and rushed over to cry. When Bai Shaoqing came close, he really saw that the queen's hair was pulling with a maid of honor. The maid of honor pulled her desperately and burst into tears.

At this time, the queen had exhausted her manners and couldn't argue with the maid of honor. She slapped her in the face and said angrily, "You slave, why don't you let go..."

"Empress... If you are not happy, beat the slave and maidservant twice to vent your anger. Why do such a thing..." The maid of honor cried loudly, and the maid who led the way to Bai Shaoqing also rushed over and pulled the queen's skirt to death. After all, the queen was weak. How could she pull them off the stone? The two maids kowtowed and bowed, and the three of them cried for a moment.

Bai Shaoqing couldn't stand aside and watch like this, so he came forward and called out, "Mother."

Only then did the queen realize that there was still one person present. When she turned her head and saw her, she was even more surprised. Thinking of her appearance, she was even more sad, covering her face and crying. The two maids of honor looked trembling between the two of them. Bai Shaoqing had to come forward and said softly, "What's wrong with you, or you can say it, or you can talk to people to solve it. No matter what it is, you are after a country, and you really don't want to behave like this now. Weichen is gentle, but if the Empress has any difficulties, can you tell her? Maybe she can help make an idea. If the Empress cried like this, she will hurt her body.

The queen listened to her, looked at her hesitantly, and then looked at the maid of honor kneeling at her feet. She was silent for a moment, and finally sighed and took her hand. Seeing that she was calmer, the maid of honor hurriedly handed her handkerchief to wipe her tears. She took it over, but she burst into tears and wanted to cry again.

Bai Shaoqing looked at the two maids of honor, and they all retreated and stood far away. Bai Shaoqing pulled the queen's scattered hair at any time and helped her slowly pull it up. The queen just lowered her head and was at her mercy, without saying a word.

After a while, I finally picked it up a little. Although the queen's eyes were red and swollen, the tears were gone after all. Looking at Bai Shaoqing, she smiled shyly, "The appearance of my palace makes the national master laugh."

Bai Shaoqing said, "People always have emotions, joys and sorrows. It is inevitable that the queen doesn't have to mind."

"Has the national teacher ever been so sad?"

Bai Shaoqing was stunned and said quietly, "Of course there is."

The queen sighed and touched her hand: "I didn't expect that such a fairy-like figure as the national master would also have the troubles of us mortals. Thinking of this, I am really lack of energy."

"What a fairy, I'm just a flesh and blood body. If you are a person, you will have a heart, and you will be happy and sad. Don't all the people in the world come here like this?

"But... I, the queen... is not even as good as the people of the world." The queen sobbed again and cried for a while before saying, "Master, you don't know. I, the queen, look bright, but in fact, it's just a decoration. After entering the palace for so many years, the days of being close to the emperor have been counted. The women of the common people marry their husbands, and they can have husbands who love their children and filial piety, but I... have nothing.

Bai Shaoqing sighed and didn't know how to interface for a moment. This is the deep palace. The woman who married to the emperor's family, three thousand harems, is equivalent to marrying loneliness. In this harem, how many women may not even see the emperor's face in their lives... Thinking of this, she suddenly felt cold.

I only heard the queen sigh and said, "An ordinary woman can have something to discuss, but I have to pass it on for a long time to see your majesty, and sometimes the result is still a word of no reply. Hate my father, who sent his daughter to such a place... There is no one to talk to..."

Bai Shaoqing was pitiful and said softly, "Mother, don't be sad. When everyone encounters sad things, it is always easy to get deeper and deeper, and they can't extricate themselves, just because they don't know how to relieve their emotions. This is very hurtful. Mother, if you are free on another day, Weichen can teach you a set of calming oral decisions and practice every day, which is also good for the body.

When the queen heard what she said, she suddenly stopped crying and said happily, "I didn't expect this cry, but I was closer to the national teacher. The national master doesn't dislike the weakness and words of my palace. On weekdays, can I come to the national master to talk about it?" With that, she raised her eyes and looked at her.

After the white veil, it was clear that the Empress's urgent eyes could be seen. Bai Shaoqing nodded helplessly and agreed. At this point, what else could she say? The queen got her promise and felt better. She sat and talked again. Bai Shaoqing looked at such a sky, but she dressed very simply. Presumably, when she was sad, she didn't want to dress at all, so she persuaded her to go back to rest. The queen was ten thousand unwilling, but when the national teacher persuaded her like this, she had to agree. She just cried and felt dizzy. After a few steps, Bai Shaoqing asked the two maids of honor to send her back to the palace, indicating that she recognized the way back. The queen then turned back step by step.

After sending the queen away, Bai Shaoqing was in the same place for a while. The queen did not mention the reason for quarreling with Qin Mofeng, but in her heart, she was also unwilling to hear it, and she was also afraid to hear it. The queen's tears seemed to disturb her heart slightly.

After sitting for a while, there was a cold wind blowing on her face. Then she felt shocked that she should leave here. She turned around and took a few steps and walked out according to the original road. When she turned a few corners, she saw a maid of honor running over from afar and greeted her and said, "The queen is afraid that the master can't find the way back. Let the maidservant show you the way." Bai Shaoqing agreed. After following the maid of honor for a while, she turned to the other direction, which seemed to be different from when she came.

Seeing her stop, the maid smiled and said, "When the maidservant just came in front of me, two flower slaves knocked over a cart of flowers to the ground. Now it's messy. If you can't pass people, I'll lead the way. The inner palace goes around, but it is also connected in all directions.

Bai Shaoqing nodded and still followed her. After walking for a while, the maid of honor suddenly stopped at a corner and whispered shyly, "National Master... Can you wait for a while... Suddenly, her stomach hurts... Slave..." Seeing the sweat on her face, Bai Shaoqing waved her hand to let her go. After waiting for a moment at this corner, she looked around and walked along the path where the trees on both sides of her crossed, faintly stretching towards the sky and the middle of the branches. It could be seen that there seemed to be a large hall not far ahead. The clearly visible high eaves seemed to indicate that there was an unusual place in front of her.
