Li Huang

Chapter 106: Sending a Fortune to the Allure (Part 2)

The door of the restaurant is about to be separated from Manager Huang. I watched him set up the car and bowed to me gently, with a little bit of love in his eyes, as if he loved my elders.

My heart trembled. Just when he was about to turn the front of the car and leave, I stepped forward and took the rein: "Mr. Huang, I have a fact that I don't know."

Manager Huang stared at me in a daze, and suddenly laughed.

I smiled unnaturally, he jumped out of the carriage and looked at me: "What's the matter?"

I hugged the package in my hand and stared at the pattern of white flowers on the blue background for a long time: "I just want to know, why did you let me go? If you go back like this, if you are found out, you will be convicted by the queen mother. Ah. And this package. In fact, when I went out of the palace, you knew that the Queen Mother would not save my life, so why did you prepare this package?"

I don't know how to say it for a while. Mr. Huang kept looking at me with a smile. He saw the doubt in my heart, and his eyes went over me to look into the distance, but he was clearly looking at the past time.

"Niang Niang, when the Queen Mother met Prince Yu at Yaotai, Pengdao, the old slave went back to the harem and prepared this package." He smiled faintly, as if it were just a simple matter.

"You knew then that the Queen Mother wanted me out of the palace?" I asked in surprise.

Manager Huang’s smile is full of meaning, "Manny, the old slave has been by my side since the queen mother was the first emperor and the queen, and the concubine Quan has not yet entered the palace." He looked at me meaningfully, "So what does the queen mother have to do? Yes, under normal circumstances, old slaves are the first to know."

I am embarrassed to lower my head, I shouldn't doubt him.

"As for this wine, in fact, what the empress wants to drink just now is the old slave's collection for many years. It was destroyed like that, which is a pity." He laughed: "The pot prepared by the queen mother for the empress, the old slave threw it on the road. In the river."

"Thank you for your life-saving grace." I lied to him and said: "I also ask Mr. Huang to make it clear."

"Niangniang, if you really want to talk about it, the old slave should actually be regarded as the slave of the Ling family."

I looked at him in surprise and puzzled. Manager Huang smiled embarrassedly: "The old slave can actually call you a miss." He looked around: "Why don't you get in the car. The old slave will give you another section."

I nodded and got into the car.

"The old slave came from a poor background and ranked among the youngest. My parents sold me. The buyer wanted to send us all to the palace as eunuchs. He had already been sentenced to the palace, but he accidentally offended an official child and was killed. . Our children also lived on the streets. Almost all starved to death. I was lucky enough to meet a good man and was taken back to be a domestic slave. It was the Ling family, the one who saved me, who was still a teenager at that time, that is Your father. At that time I swore an oath to be loyal to him."

Mr. Huang’s voice came with a long breeze: “Twenty-five years ago, the first emperor became the throne, and the crown prince Min was appointed as the queen. Although there were many first emperors and concubines at that time, the queen was truly the favorite. Palace, and gave birth to a concubine. Until Quan Guifei enters the palace."

Manager Huang smiled at me: "That year coincided with the three-year general election. The Xu family entered the palace, and the emperor loved him so much. The Sixth Palace was once deserted. The queen was also ignored by the emperor. In just over a year, The Xu family went from being a nobleman to Zhaoyi, and then to Huifei, and then became pregnant, named the noble concubine, and gave the title "Quan". No one can match the beauty for a while. The queen fell out of favor and her position in the palace was at stake. Everyone thought that as long as the Xu family was born. Under the prince, the emperor may make her the queen."

I chuckled softly: "No. The queen has a son, and no matter how much the concubine Hui is spoiled, the emperor can't abandon the queen. Moreover, the queen has done nothing wrong."

Manager Huang nodded: "What the empress said is. What's more, the queen has powerful relatives and the full support of one person."

I was taken aback, and immediately understood.

Manager Huang continued: "At that time, the son of Ling was still the Changqing of Dali Temple, and he was still walking in the study. However, the assistant to the internal affairs office sent the old slave into the palace and arranged for the queen to have a caregiver. I was afraid that there would be anything wrong with the queen. In the first few years when the old slave entered the palace, the Queen’s life was really difficult. At that time, the first emperor loved the child in the belly of the concubine Quan Gui, and he didn’t even care about the concubine. Some people even said that the emperor once said to the concubine Quan Gui. If she gives birth to a prince, she shall become a prince."

I shook my head: "This kind of pampering really puts the concubine Quan over the charcoal fire."

Manager Huang nodded: "No. At that time, all the harems resented the concubine Quan. However, only the queen could do not resent or be jealous, be worthy of the sisters of the concubine Quan, and be considerate of the concubine Quan. Therefore, the concubine Quan died after giving birth and stayed forever. Ji was still very touched by the first emperor’s recount of the queen’s kindness to her, and the first emperor was very moved. At the same time, the queen begged the first emperor to hand over her four sons to her for nurturing, and the first emperor agreed."

I sighed: "From then on, the queen's status is no one else."

Manager Huang glanced at me: "Yes. It may be because the old slave was arranged by Young Master Ling to enter the palace, or it may be that the old slave was by her side when the queen was in the most difficult time. In this way, today's queen mother trusts the old slave extremely. , And then left important things to the old slave to do."

This is how I learned about the old things in the past again in the past few days, but it is equally shocking. After listening, I fell into a deep silence.

Manager Huang looked back at me: "Miss, it's all old things. Just listen."

I raised my face and gave him a relieved smile: "Naturally. It's just that these things happened in the past few days, I think it takes time to kill."

Manager Huang laughed: "There will be time in the future. However, the old slave has something to say, it is better to forget the past."

I glanced at him: "How does Director Huang plan to explain to the Queen Mother? Or?"

He smiled slightly: "The queen mother asked me to do this. It should be time to think that there will be such a thing. The big deal is to go back and get the crime." He didn't care about it.

I was worried.

Xu realized my worries, he patted me gently: "Miss, don't worry, after all, I was sent to the Queen Mother by Young Master Ling..." After he finished speaking, he didn't give me a chance to speak, and hummed a tune alone. Come.

I looked at his back, it was the precipitation after the warm and cold world.

I said softly: "Manager Huang, send me to the Escort."

Outside the door of the Feilong Escort, there are escorts who are about to rush darts everywhere, as well as merchants from all over the world. It is bustling and crowded with people.

This is the most famous and largest **** in the Central Plains. Because the Daxi Dynasty encouraged merchants to buy and sell, there were many merchants traveling from north to south. Feilong Escort not only bets on darts, but also has merchants who go to a place can travel together here, and several escorts on the same road can be responsible for the safety of the road.

I looked at Manager Huang, he didn't mean to leave immediately. I knew in my heart that he wanted to know where I was going. I smiled secretly, and in front of General Manager Huang, I asked where the brigade was going to Luoan, a city in the northwestern city.

I saw Mr. Huang stared for a moment, as if to say something. I smiled at him, but stopped saying anything, and followed the guidance of others and walked towards a tall and muscular man. Many merchants have gathered there. The headed **** teacher chatted with a few people beside him. I stepped forward and asked for the price, but Mr. Huang had been looking at me not far from me.

"It costs five taels of silver to go to Luo'an," said the guardian.

I nodded and took out a purse, which contained part of the money I brought out, not a lot. The others were scattered in the parcel, and five taels were taken to the guard.

He looked at it and said to me: "We will leave in an hour and a half, right here, little brother, find a place to rest."

I turned around and looked at Mr. Huang and said, "It's getting late, you go back soon."

"I asked your maid to prepare the things in the package. I only said that you are going to rest on Pengdao Yaotai and need some precious or important things. There are still some things I arranged for you." Director Huang was on his way. Before, looked at the package and said to me.

I watched Mr. Huang disappear from sight. I walked to a remote corner and opened the small package. There are some fine jewelry and silver bills, the number is quite large, plus the ones that Zhilan decorated for me, if it is not extravagant, it will be enough for my life as a citizen. In addition, most of those jewelry were given to me by Shen Xiyao. There are exquisite works made by the palace and the finest works collected by the folks. In addition, I don’t know whether it was Mr. Huang’s carefulness or the preparations he entrusted him with. Most of the jewellery did not have the patterns of the palace. If I want to be pawned, I can definitely do it.

There is also an object wrapped in smoky and water-colored brocade, which is square in shape.

I just glanced at it and guessed what it was, and I was grateful. Perhaps Manager Huang or the person who packed this package didn't know how important this thing was to me. However, they installed him in, which is my greatest blessing.

I looked around and there was no one, so I divided the banknotes into several places and installed them personally. I arranged my clothes before going out. I thought about it, not in a hurry. After all, my life will be so comfortable in the future.

I thought for a while, I am a woman, I can't just rely on the money to sit and eat, and have to buy a house, and then find a way to earn some money back. However, these are too early, and I can think long-term while on the road. So, I asked about the arrangement of the leading escort.

Most darts travel during the day and rest at night. Tonight, everyone will rest in a small town. My heart relaxed, and I sat among the people waiting together.

There are men, women, and children in this group. There are businessmen as well as ordinary people dressed up, with kind faces, with expectations and worries about travel. My gaze fell on a child, a boy, two or three years old, born with a horrible head, running around in the crowd, smiling. His mother followed closely, and his father stood aside watching with the softest smile.

Judging from their patched clothes, this is not a real family, but it has the most rare and precious happiness in the world. I looked at the child and their family, and couldn't help thinking, if the child in my stomach can be born, will Shen Xiyao and I have such a beautiful and ordinary happiness?

If, this child is born. I believe that Shen Xiyao will be happy. However, he would look at his children with tender eyes like that father, and only his wife in his heart?

The answer is beyond doubt.

As the emperor, the seventy-two concubines of the San Gong and Six Courtyards are naturally indispensable. As a queen, I have to set an example. You can't blame, you can't be jealous, you can't ask the emperor to be the only one in my heart... Therefore, even if you have a child, happiness is only because he comes to Kunning Palace more often and gives more love to the child.

However, in such a cage, petting is like a charcoal fire, which will kill people...

My child, shouldn't live in the darkness of such intense fighting, shouldn't worry about all kinds of conspiracies and tricks every day, and shouldn't lose the happiness of brothers and friends. I smiled faintly. I will never have such simple happiness. No matter where you are.

Suddenly, Xi He's figure crossed his mind.
