107 Pillow Robbery(1/2)
But in the past, why didn’t I take a good look at her and let her escape from the palace and meet so many inexplicable men!
Seeing Dongfang Chen's dazed look, Wushuang smiled and said, "Master, do you already know my arrangement?"
Dongfang Chen came back to his senses and said with a stern face: "I naturally understand, but I still need you to report it myself."
Wushuang knew that he wanted to be shameless, but he did not expose it: "The three beauties sent out were all our people. They were originally embroidered women in the embroidery room and were proficient in embroidery. In addition, I taught them some passwords, so they could report the news of the Three Kings to us at any time. The parrots were also domesticated, able to speak people's words, and could be used as carrier pigeons. With two spies lurking beside them, they could relieve the emperor's worries!"
Dongfang Chen raised his sword eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "Sure enough, the heroes see each other!"
While eating soft pastries and talking about family and country affairs, a palace maid suddenly rushed in.
"Your Majesty, it's not good--"
Dongfang Chen snorted coldly, and the palace maid immediately lowered her head and said in panic: "Report to the emperor, the Empress Dowager is sick!"
Dongfang Duo stood up, flipped over a wine glass, and sternly said: "What the hell is going on?"
The little palace maid looked at Wushuang in hidingly and refused to reply. Wushuang's eyebrows frowned slightly, but her face said calmly: "Your Majesty, let's go to Qianning Palace to see her mother!"
In Qianning Palace, the imperial physician, astrological official, and the palace maid and eunuch knelt all over the ground. The empress dowager did not dress up and her hair was loose. Her face looked even more yellow, and she tied a strip of white cloth on her head, which seemed like she was sick.
Dongfang Chen stepped forward with concern and asked: "My mother, are you in poor health?"
Empress Dowager Chunyu said weakly: "Let the imperial physician and the official of the rank of the star."
The imperial physician did not dare to raise his head and said respectfully: "When I go back to the Empress Dowager, the emperor said, I have treated the Empress Dowager, and the pulse is peaceful and it doesn't seem to be sick. It seems that it has collided with something, so I will diagnose it with the Star Official. The Star Official looked at the celestial phenomena at night and found that several small stars around the moon were connected into a line recently, one of which was radiantly bright, with a faint sign of the head of the stars covering the moon and covering the sky."
Dongfang Chen glanced at his eyes and asked coldly: "Star Master, what does this mean?"
The official of the tempest star looked at Wushuang and said, "The Queen Mother's phoenix body is the master of the harem, meaning it is the moon. It should be the moon, but now the stars are more powerful than the moon, because someone in the harem is overwhelming and has collided with the Queen Mother."
Dongfang Chen's face sank and said, "In your opinion, who should this person be?"
The official of the rank of the astrology book took out the astrology book, looked it up and handed it respectfully.
The eunuch who was close to the emperor took the book and said in a sharp voice: "On July 1st, I saw the bullfighting star being very bright, which indicates that the concubines born in the rat Chen Shi in the harem were misconducted and impure, and deceived the master and seized the throne."
Before he finished reading it, Wushuang already knew it and was quietly waiting for the result.
She knew that the last demonstration had caused her bad consequences.
Dongfang Chen raised his eyes: "Let's check which concubine was born to Zishi Chen?"
The official of the valiant star was trembling and hesitantly said: "Your Majesty, this, this--"
Dongfang Chen's face became angry and shouted sternly: "Say!"
I think that he suffered from humiliation and hard life in the cold palace since he was young, and it was entirely up to Empress Chunyu to protect him. Therefore, his mother is famous for her filial piety. You can imagine how angry he is at this moment.
Wushuang took a step forward and said lightly: "No need to ask, Your Majesty, I am born from Zishi Chen Shi!"
Dongfang Chen's expression changed several times, and the room was as quiet as no one, and the breathing sound could be heard.
Everyone looked at the emperor quietly to see how he chose between his favorite concubine and his mother.
The afterglow in the queen mother's eyes shot towards Wushuang, and the complacent feeling in it was self-evident.
Wushuang slowly took off her hairpin, and her beautiful hair slid down like a waterfall, covering her face.
He bent down and knelt down, touched the ground with his head and said sincerely: "I have hit the Empress Dowager with great guilt. I take off my hairpin and wait for the crime. I beg the emperor to punish me."
Dongfangchen's face was as deep as water, and after a while, he said slowly: "Since that's the case, I will punish the queen to stay for half a month and copy Buddhist scriptures in the Buddhist temple to ask for peace for the Queen Mother!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Wushuangtou followed the little eunuch to the Buddhist temple without looking back, not seeing Dongfang Chen's expression.
The theory of astrology is purely fiction in modern times, but in the imperial family, it is regarded as treasure, so let him bear sin in his heart.
In front of the quiet Buddhist temple, Wushuang was wearing green clothes, lighted incense with bare hands, and slowly knelt in front of Guanyin's appearance, and Xiao Lian also knelt down.
Three pillars of incense are rising into the sky, and green smoke is curling.
Maybe it was really God’s own arrangements, just when she was about to leave, so that her heart would not hurt so much when she was leaving.
Spread out the plain white rice paper, Xiao Lian grinds the ink, a tube of wolf's brush, and dipped it in ink, ready to copy the scriptures.
A strong wind blew, making the window hula hula hula hula hula hula hula hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu
Although I had expected the result, my heart was filled with regret for no reason. Without the company of that person, I felt so cold. The wind pierced into my clothes and my whole body was cold.
Xiao Lian stepped forward a few steps and closed the window. A bright lightning flashed past, and a tall black shadow stood in front of the window.
Xiao Lian screamed in shock, Wushuang hurriedly stopped her, hinting at her with her eyes that she would retreat.
She was familiar with that figure, it was Dongfang Chen!
He was able to come at this time, and it seemed that he had really put some effort into himself.
The door opened slowly, and it was already raining outside. Dongfang Chen did not bring a single servant and came in the rain late at night.
He suddenly hugged her in his arms and murmured: "I feel wronged!"
There was nothing wrong with him, but when he said this, he suddenly felt a little sad.
Wushuang pretended to be calm and said: "I am waiting for the crime. The emperor is here at this time, and it may cause criticism."
Dongfang Chen raised her chin and looked into her eyes: "Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be achieved both. You only know my difficulties!"
She leaned softly on his wide shoulders. Listening to his heartbeat, she suddenly felt that this was good!
But what came immediately was inexplicable self-blame and guilt. Everything was ready, and it was only the east wind. Do you want to retreat? This is not the style of the agent!
"Wushuang, I ignored you in every way, but I knew that it was not true you, because you were different from the Wushuang Princess of Chu! I began to pay attention to you since I discovered your changes. I suddenly started to hold people in the Eastern Palace; I tied my bed to threaten them with a knife; I took drugs to save me in times of crisis; Concubine Rou rebelled and blocked my knife; the plague spread, and healed the disease to save people. I asked to take a secret plan to retreat to the enemy. I thought I was extremely favored in my life, but I didn't expect that I had still taken away my feelings. Wushuang, are you willing to promise me that I will never leave me again in the future?"
Looking at him quietly, she met those trusted eyes, her heart suddenly tightened. He believed so openly, but she had to hide everything. She felt guilty and her eyes were blurred. She was afraid that the emotions on her face would reveal her thoughts. Wushuang turned her head and looked out the window.
It was raining outside the window, but the two of them were silent inside the room. They were destined to betray him because she had already paid him once in her previous life and was destined to be unable to make any choice in this life.
It was not until midnight that Dongfang Chen left.
Seeing that Wushuang was still not sleeping, Xiao Lian couldn't help but ask worriedly: "Master, it's already late at night!"
Wushuang spread the paper and quietly put the ink on: "You go to bed, I want to write for a while."
I just don’t know whether it is to calm my heart or to repent my mistakes!
As the sun rises, everything is shining. Xiao Lian quickly cleans up the ashes and cleans the house.
"Please stop, the emperor said that no one would be allowed to approach the Buddhist temple." The guards guarding outside the Buddhist temple handed over two guns to prevent Concubine Mu from entering.
Wushuang opened the window and saw Mu Fei pointing at the noses of the two guards with a fierce look and cursing: "Bold, you dog slaves have been brave enough to kill you, and dare to stop me!"
The guards no longer answered, but they just refused to give in.
Wushuang smiled, it seemed that Dongfang Chen was quite thoughtful.
When Concubine Mu saw Wushuang's smiling face, she couldn't help but become even more angry: "Cheng Wushuang, sooner or later, I will be back a hundred times the insult you have caused me!"
Wushuang turned around and sat down, leisurely copied the scriptures, letting her make trouble for a while, leaving without any worries.
Xiao Lian brewed a pot of honeysuckle nectar tea and picked it up: "Master, drink some water to moisten your throat."
Wushuang raised her eyes and asked casually: "Can that thing be done?"
Xiao Lian pressed his voice down and said, "Yes, Master!"
"Tonight, you can get it!" Wushuang said lightly while copying the scriptures without moving.
"But master, the emperor is confining us-" Xiao Lian hesitated.
Wushuang looked up, and the mocking feeling in his eyes was very loud: "Xiao Lian, are you stupid to be your master? You are also a spy from Chu, right?"
Xiao Lian's face turned white when it was so bad that she was speechless: "Master, I..."
Wushuang sighed and said in a quiet tone: "Why do you have to pretend in front of me? If you hadn't your unique skills, how could you survive in this sinister harem? How could you never leave Qin? I have explored your pulse, steady and powerful, breathing for a long time, and showing that your martial arts are not weak. And when I asked you to do things, you didn't doubt it at all. It must be because you knew the reason, right?"
Xiao Lian knelt in front of Wushuang with a pounce, crying: "Master, Xiao Lian was arranged by the Empress Dowager of Chu. The family's life is in the hands of the Empress Dowager. Xiao Lian has his own difficulties!"
Empress Dowager Chu?
Haha, what kind of character is this?
Wushuang said quietly: "I knew it long ago. The reason why I left your life here is all because of your true love for me. Don't worry, as long as you are loyal to me, I will keep your family safe after returning to Chu."
Xiao Lian wiped his tears and gritted his teeth and said, "Xiao Lian is willing to follow his master and be loyal!"
Wushuang waved his hand: "Go, let's act tonight!" Xiao Lian looked serious and disappeared from his usual cowardice and fear. He turned around neatly and hid in the backyard with flowers and trees.
Seeing a guqin left in a corner of the Buddhist temple, Wushuang was good at music, and he pulled it out casually. The sound of the piano was clear and ding-dong, and I couldn't help feeling sad.
By the evening, Xiao Lian finally came back and took a heavy burden.
The silk cloth was uncovered layer by layer, revealing a round and exquisite jade pillow, carving dragons and phoenixes, which were exactly the same as the one in Qin Shihuang pillow in the imperial tomb, but the color was slightly different. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't see anything unusual.
This jade pillow is made of leftover materials after the jade pallet is made into a jade pendant for stealing dragons and turning phoenixes.
The night after the rain was a little wet. Wushuang was wearing night clothes and jumped with Xiao Lian when the moonlight was blocked by dark clouds, and used his visual blind spots to walk out of the Buddhist temple smoothly.
However, just as they were lying, a man in a bronze mask snorted coldly from his nose and followed him like a fox.
The imperial tomb is located in the suburbs of the city, and it was quite a while before the palace. The two men rose and fell, and their clothes were wet with night dew.
Now that the arrow is on the string, she has to fire, and she has no time to consider the inexplicable love for Dongfang Chen.
