356 kekan solitary hall closed for spring cold (I)
"Don't think how special you are. He's just..." Mrs. Yao said with a pause after biting Mibai's fine teeth. "Anyway, you're less proud... When you're out of Dasheng, you're just a princess of a conquered country. You can only serve as a concubine without name or division."
Huo Wanhua stood there with a pale face. She didn't know whether she was stabbed by her sentence "Princess of subjugation" or excited by her sentence "nameless Concubine". She looked vaguely away, looked out of the window and whispered, "Madam came here early in the morning to tell me this?"
Mrs. Yao is probably spoiled by he Zhen. She has seen the imperial concubines of the imperial brother. The more powerful the concubines are, the more hidden they are. She is fierce and cruel, but she always smiles when she sees people. She is respectful and obedient to her superiors and amiable to her subordinates. Everyone says she is kind and kind. The more such people make her bad, the more vicious she is. She saw it in the palace that day.
When she heard her words in Mrs. Yao's ears, she naturally had a strong sense of disdain and ridicule. Mrs. Yao was in a hurry and said, "don't think that you still have a little love for me, so dare to talk to me like this!"
"I tell you, in the past three years, many women around you have been like crucian carp crossing the river. Most of them, like you, have been favored by you several times, but they have finally been forgotten in the back house. The only one who has been favored by you is me." Mrs. Yao sneered: "Those women who try to compete with me are suffering in the backyard now. If you don't want to be like them, you'd better be honest and stay away from the king."
Mrs. Yao has been spoiled by experts for a long time, and her temperament is used to being very overbearing by he Zhen. Huo Wanhua smiled bitterly: "I wish I could stay away from him... If you could persuade him to let me go, it would be better for me."
"You..." Mrs. Yao's slender jade fingers trembled and pointed at her. In her opinion, Huo Wanhua clearly meant to provoke. She wanted to rush up and tear her mouth and scratch her face with a hairpin. But after all, this woman is the person valued by monarchs and Hou. At present, Mrs. Yao doesn't dare to touch her.
Mrs. Yao stared at her with hatred and cut her with her eyes. Huo Wanhua looked at Mrs. Yao in front of her, and the corners of her lips were slightly aroused. There was a faint irony in her smile: "Mrs. Yao, if your means of striving for favor is introduced into your monarch's ears, I'm afraid it's not very clever."
She grew up in the imperial palace when she was young. Her father and empress were the only people around her. The couple lived a life of immortals and couples, but Huo Zheng, the eldest brother of the crown prince, did have several Ji concubines around her. She saw many Ji concubines competing for favor. Women competing for favor was nothing more than secretly using some sinister means. In the past, they pretended to be innocent one by one, and looked more gentle, virtuous and kind. In the past, they used to be more and more innocent She looked at it and found it very interesting, but her mother told her, "these women are just poor people."
I've been trapped in this small world all my life. All I want to do better is rely on men's favor. If I get favor, I can at least enjoy the scenery in front of me. But if I lose favor, those eunuchs and maids can trample you under their feet. For this favor, how many women devote all their energy and wisdom to competing for favor. In fact, it's wrong It's just a decent life.
Murong Yao's jealous eyes fell on the woman in front of her, and she just wanted to cut her thousands of knives. Why was she born a golden and noble princess, enjoying all the best things in the world, but she was humiliated by her aunt every day for her status as a concubine? Why did her hard won favor completely disappear as soon as this woman appeared?
Even her meticulously decorated and always proud face has become mediocre fat and vulgar powder against the background of the plain face of the woman in front of her.
"Girl... These people broke in..." ah Jing ran to Huo Wanhua to stop her after she was released: "I'll tell eunuch Zhao to deal with you."
Mrs. Yao sneered, "do you still call her a girl?" her face was full of schadenfreude and said sarcastically: "now it's time to call you Mrs. Wan? Unfortunately, your identity... It seems that the prince doesn't intend to give you any title."
Her mood was the first time since she entered here. How noble a princess she is, her royal highness is only a small captive.
At that time, perhaps the royal highness of the great emperor of the great imperial family, who was once superior, would also call himself "madam" under his feet. Think about it and make Murong Yao feel very happy.
Mrs. Yao left with a group of maidservants, leaving Huo Wanhua standing there with a bitter smile. Before she left, Mrs. Yao dropped a word and asked her to copy the king of benevolence Scripture a hundred times in three days, so as to pray for the monarch and marquis.
A Jing angrily wants to find eunuch Zhao, but Shen Qingru lightly shakes her head. She is willing to copy the Buddhist scriptures and meditate.
It was late at night. Huo Wanhua lit a lamp and copied the borrowed King Ren Sutra in her room. Her mother didn't believe in Buddhist rites, so she rarely dabbled in these sutras. However, her memory was excellent. After King Ren sutra was read several times, all the important things were recorded word by word in her mind.
The king of benevolence said in the Scripture that in a moment, nine hundred people were born and died.
Huo Wanhua could not help sighing at the birth and death of this moment. Life may be like this. In a moment, youth will die, things are right and people are wrong, and the past may be forgotten.
If only I could forget it completely.
From the day she began to copy the king of benevolence Sutra, she hardly slept in bed at night, and occasionally took a nap at the desk when she was tired. He Zhen didn't appear these days, but Huo Wanhua still didn't dare to touch the bed, as if he would think of he Zhen that night as soon as he touched the bed. He stood there with a pale face, but his face was very cruel, and his face seemed to want to swallow her alive. He hated her so much that he tortured her physically and mentally.
She couldn't help thinking, which was the real he Zhen, the boy who spoiled her and the man who abused and tortured her now?
There is a small bed beside the bed. Ah Jing is sleeping on the small bed. I don't know what beautiful dream she has had. She even giggled and kicked off the quilt with dancing. Huo Wanhua sighed and walked over to pick up the quilt on the ground and cover ah Jing.
Then she went back to the table and quietly polished the ink. Then she dipped the Langhao pen in the ink and continued to calm down to copy the king of benevolence Sutra.
The lamp oil gradually ran out. She added it to the ceramic lamp again and again until the third time. When the morning light was light, she blew out the lamp and lay down at the table for a while.
Ah Jing got up. She went to bed early last night. When she woke up, she saw her girl lying on the table. When she was asleep, she got up carefully, put an outer shirt on the girl, and then went out to arrange breakfast.
When ah Jing's footsteps gradually went away, Huo Wanhua got up from the table again. She was in a bad mood because she didn't sleep all night. Wu felt more comfortable after pouring a cup of cold tea into the tea cup and drinking it all at once. His wrist hung all night. His muscles and bones hurt badly. Huo Wanhua gently moved his wrist and continued to bend over the table to copy scriptures.
The door opened with a "squeak". Ah Jing, who was carrying a bowl of porridge, eggs, zongzi and other things, pushed the door in and put breakfast on the table in a hurry. She looked very impatient. Before Huo Wanhua asked, ah Jing said: "girl, I just heard from the kitchen that childe Yuwen is dead..."
"Which young master Yuwen?" Huo Wanhua asked subconsciously with a slight frown in his eyebrows.
"That's the day..." ah Jing looked at her hesitantly and looked a little uneasy: "that's the son of Yu Wenjian who almost despised the girl that day..."
Yu Wenjian? When she became a maid, the dandy who wanted to flirt with her?
"Die in your own room." ah Jing whispered, "Yuwen's family has made a mess now. Master Yuwen fainted with fear. Mrs. Yuwen is crying in front of the old lady, saying that her brother died miserably“
Huo Wan Wharton paused and said slowly, "how did you die?"
"The corpses were cut into pieces, and a strange murder weapon was left at the scene, like a star moon machete..." ah Jing frowned and repeated what she had just heard.
Huo Wanhua's face changed slightly. Others might not know it, but she knew that there was a team in Guan Ning's iron cavalry of Huo Yan, the second brother, who was born of Hu Bing and was best at using Xingyue machete. Is it the second brother coming?
"It's said that the old lady also went to Jun hou to cry, forcing Jun hou to find out the murderer who killed childe Yuwen as soon as possible..." ah Jing murmured: "the murderer can come and go freely in and out of Yuwen house. Killing childe Yuwen doesn't disturb anyone in the house. His martial arts must be unpredictable..."
Huo Wanhua looked out of the window. Did the second brother kill Yu Wenjian because he heard that she was despised by the dandy of Yu Wenjian? If it was the second brother, someone would rescue her from the house of marquis Wu soon.
But there was something strange about it. Huo Wanhua lowered his eyes and kept his eyes secret.
She didn't expect that the second brother's people soon found her.
That night, there was a lot of noise and chaos outside. Huo Wanhua was still moving towards the Scriptures, pushing the door open and looking at it. In between, everyone outside hurried around, but a fire burst into the sky from the East Building of Xiyuan not far away.
"Run away, girl, there's water outside..." the steward urged her desperately.
