Chapter 24

After all the concubines sent the emperor respectfully, Su Mingyue came out from behind. She picked up the poem written by Han Chengjue and asked quietly, "Is this written by the emperor?"

The concubines laughed and said nothing, which was a tacit consent.

"I asked him to write it! The emperor's handwriting is so beautiful!" Wei Xiangwan praised sincerely, "It's much better than mine!"

Su Mingyue said: "You are finished, you have committed the crime of beheading."

"What what? What happened?" Wei Xiangwan didn't know why, "What did I do wrong? I also committed the crime of beheading for praising the emperor's handwriting?"

"Annoyed Long Yan, what do you think?"

Wei Xiangwan pointed to the outside, "I think the emperor is very happy!"

Concubine Ning touched her head, "Don't worry, the emperor loves you the most, how could he be willing to chop off your head."

He Zhaoyi asked Liang Guanjing: "Then will the emperor's poem be transcribed and hung on the lantern?"

Liang Guanjing was very embarrassed.

Su Mingyue said: "Of course, otherwise the emperor will ask, eh? Where did the poems I wrote go? Did they look down on me!"

Liang Guanjing poked her forehead with her finger, "You change it for him, it's agreed, you can only change one or two words."

"Empress Empress, this is embarrassing your servant!"

"If you don't make it right, I'll cut off your head!" Liang Guanjing threatened.

"Sister Mingyue's literary talent is the best, and it won't be a problem for you. It has something to do with the face of the royal family, so you have to go all out!" Concubine Ning beside her chimed in.

Su Mingyue took the pen, thought for a moment in embarrassment, circled a word on it like an emperor approving a memorial, and wrote the newly corrected word next to it.The concubines came to watch it one after another, and praised it as wonderful. They changed a bland doggerel into an artistic conception of picking chrysanthemums and seeing Nanshan leisurely under the eastern fence.

Liang Guanjing then ordered the eunuch to bring the lanterns, and asked Su Mingyue to transcribe these newly acquired poems today and hang them in various palaces and courtyards.

Su Mingyue cried out for innocence, "What did this servant do wrong that you want to punish this servant?"

"You've been wronged for copying a few poems! Here's your handwriting, which is the most beautiful. If you didn't copy it, why don't you go to the South Study Room and ask Mr. Ning to copy it?" Concubine Ning said.

"The empress's handwriting is the prettiest, why don't the empress copy it."

"Okay, okay, stop flattering each other." Liang Guanjing couldn't stand it any longer, and pointed at Su Mingyue, "You don't like to let you ride a horse, and you don't like to have you transcribe poems, what do you like? "

Su Mingyue hummed and acted coquettishly, "Queen Empress, calm down, can I copy it?"

Willow head on the moon, after dusk.

On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, when the moon is full in the capital, the palace is decorated with lanterns and festoons, and the streets and alleys outside the palace are also crowded with people.

Because Concubine Hui fell out of favor in Changle Palace, they have been thinking behind closed doors these days. Yes, falling out of favor must be because of something they did wrong, so naturally they have to think about their mistakes behind closed doors.Although the emperor acquiesced in giving all the concubines in the palace a unified promotion after the next year, and her position of noble concubine was preserved, it was inevitable to think about mistakes behind closed doors.

The emperor felt ashamed because of the poem, so when he heard about any activities in the harem on the Mid-Autumn Festival night, he shirked his busy schedule and only attended the banquet.

After the banquet, Liang Guanjing said to Su Mingyue: "Do you want to go out of the palace to have a look?"

Wei Xiangwan leaned over, "I'm going too!"

On weekdays, Liang Guanjing would tell others that he was going to the racecourse in the western suburbs, and Wei Xiangwan would not follow if he didn't like riding horses. Tonight, knowing that he must be going out of the palace to see something new, naturally he had to follow.Liang Guanjing couldn't resist, so she asked Su Mingyue to dress her up as a young son, Liang Guanjing as her elder brother, and the two brothers went out with their maid Xiyu and cousin Su Mingyue.

A group of people took the car out of the palace gate, and quickly arrived at the busiest place in the capital, Liang Guanjing, as usual, chose the teahouse he often went to, the elegant seat on the second floor, where he listened to books and watched operas.Wei Xiangwan seldom came out of the palace, and she was in a state of shock along the way, threatened by Liang Guanjing not to calm down, and never to follow her again, so she had to pretend to be dumb, but within a moment she asked again: "Oh, this is What, what are they doing?"

Just as the few people sat down, Xiao Er served tea, "Master is late today!"

"The family is going to have a reunion dinner."

"My little one guessed it for sure! Miss Xiangyu said she was going to sing a new song, and she waited for the master to come before opening her voice."

"Then I'll give you more rewards today." Liang Guanjing waved her folding fan and turned her head to look down. As expected, the girl called Xiangyu was sitting on the stage on the first floor with her pipa in her arms. Turn around, it's so bright.

Wei Xiangwan said: "She's giving you a sneak peek!"

Su Mingyue looked around, "Even if you bring a female family member with you, you can't prevent others from falling into your arms."

Liang Guanjing couldn't help laughing, "What kind of jealousy are you eating?"

Suddenly the curtain was lifted, and the visitor bowed his hands, "Brother Liang, so you are here, why didn't you ask your brother to come with you?"

Whether it's Princess Zheng or someone else, she's used to dressing up in men's clothes. Compared with Liang Guanjing, her gestures are more chic and coquettish. Let the two groups of people sit together.

"I heard that you are a frequent visitor here, but you didn't even tell me. It just so happens that I also like to listen to music and drink tea together."

"Since you want to come, then I won't come in the future." Liang Guanjing made a gesture to leave.

"Hey? Why?"

"avoid arousing suspicion!"

Princess Zheng choked with anger, "When it comes to crossing rivers and demolishing bridges, you think you're second, and no one thinks you're number one."

Liang Guanjing said: "If you come to see me, I won't avoid it, but I shouldn't choose this kind of place."

"What's wrong with this place?"

"It seems like a guilty conscience."

Wei Xiangwan interjected, "This kind of place is suitable for a tryst."

The two of them looked back at her together, and Su Mingyue beside her was already blushing, pointing down and said, "Aren't you listening to the song?"

Wei Xiangwan also looked downstairs, and suddenly exclaimed "Ah!"

"What?" Everyone else went to look at her, but Wei Xiangwan backed away blushing this time, "On the right side of the stage on the first floor, look quickly! Oh, don't let him see it!"

When she made such a fuss, not to mention that everyone upstairs wanted to poke their heads to see, even downstairs heard the movement.

Where Wei Xiangwan pointed, there was a young man in gray clothes whom Su Mingyue didn't know looking at him. Hearing Wei Xiangwan yelling, he stood up slowly and looked up.

When Liang Guanjing came and went with Princess Zheng Guo, she still had a serious smile on her face, but now the smile was frozen, and the folding fan in her hand fell from the railing on the second floor like a frightened bird to the downstairs on the floor.

The young man in gray stepped forward to pick up the folding fan, then nodded slightly to Liang Guanjing.

"This son is so good-looking!" Wei Xiangwan praised.

Countless beautiful poems also appeared in Su Mingyue's mind. Most of the beauties are overwhelmed by the country, and those who are independent in the world are all about beauty, and this young man in gray is not just a gentleman like Ruyu, he has already reached the level of disaster.It's not that he has a handsome face, male and female, but that he is tall and handsome, although he is dressed in plain gray clothes, which makes him look more refined. If he is wearing armor and riding on a horse, he will be like a heavenly soldier The heavenly generals descended to earth, and that was probably the case for Weiqing of Hanwu, Gongjin of Chibi, and Han Zigao of Nanchen.

"It's not suitable to stay here for long, let's go."

"Why are you leaving?" Wei Xiangwan obviously hasn't seen enough handsome men.

"This is Princess Zheng's son-in-law. The husband and wife are reunited. What are we doing here?"

Su Mingyue's heart skipped a beat, it was him!It was him!

Liang Guanjing didn't finish listening to the song, so she hurried back to the palace, just entered the gate of the Danying Building of Yongxuan Palace, but saw a few young eunuchs standing on both sides of the courtyard, who were usually serving the emperor.

She thought to herself: "This news is too well-informed."

Sure enough, Han Chengjue came to Xingshi to question his guilt. He asked all the idlers to wait outside the door, and asked patiently, "It's so late, and you still dressed like this, where did you go?"

"I went to watch the moon with some concubines."

"Is the moon outside the palace rounder than inside?"

Liang Guanjing heard that he was full of displeasure, and hurriedly knelt down to listen to the training.

"You are my queen, you should know that going outside the palace all day long to listen to those obscene lyrics and pornographic songs is demeaning!"

Liang Guanjing didn't want to refute, she just felt bored, she didn't even want to quarrel now, just knelt there and put her left ear in her right ear, and hoped that Han Chengjue would finish the training and leave quickly.

"Hold your head up for me!"

Liang Guanjing raised her head expressionlessly, she knew she should put on a look of sincerity, if she explained it well and burst into tears, Han Chengjue would be satisfied, but she really didn't want to, either because she was arrogant or lazy.

As expected, Han Chengjue was full of anger, "Aren't you going to explain?"

"There's nothing to explain. The concubine does go out of the palace quite often. I thought the master of the sixth palace would go out whenever he wanted to. The emperor didn't say that he had to report every time he went out."

"Do you still know that you are the lord of the Sixth Palace? Which dynasty and generation of queens are like you?"

"Then the emperor might as well abolish me."

Han Chengjue was so angry that he almost raised his hand to slap her, but he had never hit a woman before as a couple for many years, and that slap never fell. Not only that, he grabbed Liang Guanjing's wrist, pulled her up from the ground, and kept Drag it to the inner room and push it on the bed.

Seeing him pulling her clothes, Liang Guanjing desperately resisted. She is a Lianjiazi, and the emperor has not fought in battle for many years. Although men and women are different, she may not lose in a real fight, but in a real fight, I am afraid that Han Chengjue will be hurt.When he hesitated whether to remove the emperor's arm or the emperor's leg, the clothes were already pulled out of shape.

"You are the Son of Heaven, the Ninth Five-Year Honor, don't you think it's demeaning to do so?" Liang Guanjing responded with a tooth for a tooth.

Han Chengjue acted as if he didn't hear her, and pressed her firmly on the bed.

"You haven't let a man touch you for so long, do you miss a man? I'll make you happy!" It's already said so obscenely.evil.

Liang Guanjing was extremely angry, he broke away with a skillful hand, and then turned his backhand into a claw, clasped the emperor's shoulder and twisted it.Han Chengjue groaned instinctively. He wanted to hold back at first, but only groaned, holding back from left to right, and finally rolling on the bed in pain and screaming.

Several imperial guards quickly broke through the eunuch's obstruction and rushed to the inner room.

Liang Guanjing had already got out of bed and adjusted her clothes when Han Chengjue was enduring the pain. At this time, she stepped aside calmly and said to the guards who were looking at each other: "The emperor accidentally twisted his arm, why don't you hurry up and call the imperial doctor!"

The little eunuch at the door hastily went to call the imperial physician, but the imperial guards were well-informed, and they saw that His Majesty's arm was just dislocated, so they came forward and bowed, "Your Majesty, I can return to my position!"

Han Chengjue quickly nodded in acquiescence.

"Offended!" Several guards hurriedly held down Han Chengjue, and the leader pulled the emperor's arm again. After a scream, the guards quickly let him go.

Han Chengjue moved his shoulders, and sure enough he was healed immediately. He cast a venomous look at Liang Guanjing. Although he knew that his queen could do such a thing, he didn't expect that she would actually do it.

Liang Guanjing sat down at the table next to him. Seeing a folding fan on the table, he picked it up and unfolded it. He waved the fan and said, "Concubines don't need men, but I think the emperor really needs them!"

She was dressed in brocade clothes, and at this time she was still acting like a prince, and the way she talked and waved her fan was not half foolish. This sneer made Han Chengjue vaguely remember the first time he saw her, so beautiful and so cold, it made him desperate wanted to get her.
