I’m Determined To Be the Dark Moonlight

Chapter 14

The chirping sound of the birds is crisp and sweet. The nine-layered deep palace has turned into the foothills of the deep valley, echoing the soft sound of birds.

Gong Beinu and Concubine Shu looked at each other and understood what was going on. They wanted to explain, but the Queen Mother made a gesture of silence and said in a low voice, "Don't make a sound, don't let the bird run away."

The queen mother walked out of the palace gate with light steps, looking up at the blue sky in the late autumn, without the shadow of birds. She frowned, followed the sound, and came to the door of the ear room. There was a bird chirping inside. After a while, the queen's smiling voice sounded: "This time, it is the call of a kingfisher."

Wei Ying got out from behind the screen with a smile, tilted her head, and said with a smile: "The niangniang guessed it right again."

The corners of the queen's mouth rose slightly, as if she had returned to her youth. She was born in a famous family in Shengjing, and her father was a great scholar in the world, so her family education was supposed to be very strict.

But at that time, she often sneaked out with her friends, went to the street to listen to books, fought wine in the towers, and rode across the inclined bridge... It was a long time ago, and now I think of it, it feels like a lifetime.

Wei Ying drilled back again, "Is the next bird lady recognizable?"

The queen unconsciously revealed a faint smile, as if she had returned to the past.

The voice behind the screen was urgent and clear: "Silence, silence."

The queen listened for a while, then tentatively guessed: "Is it a cuckoo?"

Weiying came out and shook her head, "No, this is—"

"It's the screeching of the swans."

Gong Beinu and Concubine Shu blinked, their faces blank.

Queen Mother: …

I don't know why, but suddenly blurted out.

Gong Beinu asked suspiciously, "Auntie?"

The queen mother couldn't help but said again: "Gugu is the chirping of pigeons."

Gong Beinu was silent, Aunt, did you develop your talent in some wonderful place?

Concubine Shu suddenly said: "Is it just like what she said, everyone in our family is a ventriloquist with amazing bones that has never been seen in a hundred years?"

Gong Beinu: …

The door opened with a creak, and the queen took the lead to go out. Seeing them, she was stunned for a moment, and then greeted them very politely.

Wei Ying also knelt on the ground to greet him.

The queen mother walked past her without telling her to get up, sitting on the couch and looking down at the **** the ground.

The girl was wrapped in a red dress, her eyes were faintly sickly, and her hair was half-pulled down from her slender neck, which did not hide her weakness, but she was very beautiful.

The queen mother looked at it for a long time, and smiled slightly: "Beinu praised you for your excellent ventriloquism and amazing skills. I thought she had never seen the world, but now it seems that I have never seen the world, no wonder Your Majesty wants to You be his bird."

Wei Ying lowered her head and pretended to be dead.

Seeing her being punished to kneel by the queen mother, the queen felt anxious and unconsciously frowned.

The queen mother asked again: "But as a palace concubine, why do you want to do these tricks and tricks?"

The **** the ground suddenly raised her head, her eyes burning: "The Queen Mother, this is Wei Ying's plan for the future."

The empress dowager puzzled: "Make plans for the future?"

Wei Ying nodded with a serious expression: "Don't overwhelm yourself with more skills, learn a few more side jobs, so that even if I fall out of favor in the future, I can make my sisters happy and earn a bite to eat."

Her expression was so serious that the Queen Mother was so terrified that she didn't know what to say for a while.

I originally wanted to scold her for not doing her regular job, but now that she started preparing for a side job so early, this young man was too prepared for a rainy day. It's just that everyone else is figuring out how to compete for the top spot, and she's starting to prepare for falling out of favor.

There is something wrong with this concubine.

The queen mother was silent for a long time before she said, "You don't have to work so hard."

Gong Beinu sarcastically said: "If my sister falls out of favor in the future, don't worry, I will be the first to take care of your business."

Wei Ying's eyes lit up: "That's great! The mother-in-law is serious? Can you make a statement?"

Gong Beinu: ? ? ?

Why does this woman not feel humiliated, but so excited! Does she really want to develop a ventriloquist career in the deep palace?

Wei Ying: "When the time comes, I will ask Niangniang to shine the light, Niangniang is really a good person!"

Gong Beinu was silent again. After meeting Weiying, she was often passively silent because she was not angry enough.

The queen mother couldn't stand it any longer, and sipped her tea: "Get up."

Wei Ying bounced off the ground, sat down on a stool, and rubbed her sore knees. Fortunately, she was well prepared, and when she was getting dressed, Green Wax specially made two knee pads, so that she did not kneel on her knees.

She raised her eyes and looked at the famous Empress Dowager Donggong again.

The Empress Dowager East was a very powerful beauty when she was young. She firmly grasped the heart of the late emperor in the palm of her hand, so that the late emperor almost had no heirs, and the harem of the previous dynasty was restless. Now even though you are old, the beauty is still beautiful.

The queen mother lowered her eyes and rubbed the delicate porcelain cup, "I heard that Chuxiufang is haunted?"

Gong Beinu's face suddenly turned pale, and he looked at his aunt suspiciously, wondering why she brought this up.

Wei Ying nodded and sat obediently, looking soft and well-behaved.

The queen saw her cover her lips and coughed, and ordered the **** to bring a bowl of rose dew.

The rose dew was fragrant and sweet, and Wei Ying took a small sip while holding the bowl. It was not easy to fight in the palace. From early in the morning until now, she had only drank the first sip of water. Fortunately, when she was going out, Concubine Xian secretly stuffed her and Xiao Qianxue with a red bean cake, saying that she was hungry and secretly ate it.

She just tactfully ate it behind the screen!

Gong Douji: Then you are really a clever little ghost.

Weiying: Hey!

Seeing her drink so deliciously, several others felt hungry. The beauty looked particularly beautiful when she was eating. Gong Beinu touched her shriveled belly and quietly swallowed: "Suck it."

Queen Mother: …

The queen mother asked the **** to bring snacks, and the group gathered around to eat.

——

After going down to court, the emperor reviewed the memorials in the Hall of Mental Cultivation as usual.

This is part of Emperor Feng Qi's daily work. There are two stacks of memorials on the table, which are waist-high, making the little emperor's stature more and more slender.

Yun Shao buried his head in criticizing the memorial, and was so angry that his brain suddenly hurt. He pressed his fingers on his temples, and couldn't help scolding: "Bitch, I will kill these **** sooner or later."

Fu Shou brought a bowl of almond dew and coaxed the emperor: "Your Majesty, let's eat something to cushion first."

Yun Shao slapped the table: "A group of dogs who only know how to bark if they don't do business!"

Fu Shou: "This bowl of almond dew will be cold if you don't eat it."

Yun Shao: "Behead nine clans, no, ten clans!"

Fushou is like coaxing a child: "Okay, ten clans are ten clans, Your Majesty has something to eat first."

Yun Shao scolded comfort, sitting on the dragon chair, drinking almond dew, thinking of something, "Today..."

Fu Shou raised his head blankly: "What is today?"

Yun Shao blinked.

Fu Shou also blinked.

Yun Shao covered his lips and coughed twice, rubbed his sleeves, and put down the almond dew, "Is there nothing to tell me today?"

Fu Shou thought about it for a long time, and thought again and again, "The day before yesterday, an official was kneeling outside Dongzhimen, saying that he would not leave if he would not withdraw the new policy. He fainted just now, and I have already ordered the guard to drag the adult home."

Yun Shao said displeased: "Who told you to talk about this?" The thin white fingers pointed irritably on the table, until they reached the front of the almond dew, and the milky white almond dew was shaken slightly.

She asked again, "Is there really nothing wrong?"

Jun's heart is unpredictable, Fushou thought about it for a long time, and a flash of light flashed in his mind, and said: "Early this morning, the queen took the concubines to greet the queen mother, and was stopped at the door, the queen mother did not see them, only left Noble Ying and the Queen are in the palace."

Yun Shao's face gradually darkened, he stood for a while, raised his legs and walked out the door.

Fu Shou hurried over holding the bowl, "Your Majesty, finish this bowl of almond dew first, you haven't eaten for a day."

At the gate of the palace, the emperor turned around and looked at Fushou: "Which official dares to kneel at the gate to obstruct the New Deal in the future, there is no need to drag it down." She raised her eyebrows, smiled, and her thin lips parted lightly: "Just stick to death."

Fu Shou was shocked by the cold killing intent in her eyes, and took a step back, and Xing Xing Lu almost fell out.

Yun Shao supported him: "Be careful."

Fu Shou placed it in the bowl, and the hand under his sleeve trembled slightly.

The child he raised has become a real emperor, and fortunately, he is respected and close to him.

Yun Shao waved his sleeves: "Go to Cining Palace and see... what are the queen mother and the queen doing?"

In the car, Yun Shao supported his chin, closed his eyes and rested, thinking of something, the corners of his mouth curled up.

The nine-layered palace tower, the palace gate is deep, can this mountain warbler be closed? It's just... the Queen Mother made things difficult today, I don't know how she will deal with it?

In front of the Cining Palace, Yun Shao's eyes became colder and colder, thinking that she would see the poor little Ying kneeling on the ground, or being beaten and beaten miserably, but when she opened the door, she saw Several women were sitting at the table, enjoying the hot pot together happily.

Yun Shao was stunned.

Suddenly I felt like an outsider.

And she thought that the miserable little Huang Ying, holding a bowl of rice, ate deliciously, and her queen, who had always been dignified and reserved like a cold moon in the sky, picked up a chopstick and put the meat in the micro-ying bowl.

emperor:? ? ?

The queen has never served her any dishes!

She took a step back, closed the door and calmed down for a moment, trying to hypnotize herself that what she had just seen was an illusion. Then he pushed open the door again, and saw the queen showing a very gentle smile, tilting her head to look at the little yellow warbler who was eating happily.

The emperor took a breath. She married the queen for political purposes and did not have much friendship, but she had known each other for a few years, and she had never seen the queen smile like this to her.

At the dinner table, Wei Ying bent her eyes and gave the queen a bright smile.

Then she heard a soft "tsk", raised her eyes, and saw the dog emperor in a bright yellow dragon robe standing at the door with a very complicated expression.

Weiying: Damn it, why did the dog emperor come? I was so happy I didn't notice it!

Originally, I didn't eat hot pot at first, but the queen mother prepared some delicate pastries, which could not fill her stomach at all. Wei Ying felt that this was not good. It didn't matter if she was hungry, but it would be bad if she was hungry for her honorable empress dowager, Concubine Shu Concubine Jieyu. So under her flickering, she became what she is now.

When the queen saw the emperor, she took back the chopsticks and looked a little guilty. She walked over and asked, "Will your majesty come to eat too?"

Yun Shao frowned, and was excited by the aroma that rushed to his face, and he was really hungry.

Wei Ying stuffed her with a clove of garlic: "Don't be restrained, Your Majesty, come and eat, if you don't eat meat, it will be gone."

Immediately after, several women abandoned the Dog Emperor and began to eat hot pot and peel oranges happily. Yun Shao sat alone, looking at the garlic clove in his hand and fell into contemplation.

Is this implying something to her?

Just squeeze the garlic in, she is also an outsider?
