第37章 打脸(2 / 2)

爱谁谁 风流书呆 0 字 2022-01-09

    似觉得往事有趣,她掩嘴轻笑,顾盼之间神采奕奕,容光逼人。

    白福几个直叹满宫里唯叶婕妤相貌绝俗又与陛下共过苦难,难怪最得宠,抬头偷觑却发觉陛下神情冷漠,目光幽深,非但没有沉溺之态,反倒透出几分危险的审视之意。莫非前些日子窥视帝踪的罪过还没忘记?

    叶婕妤并不知道自己买通御前内侍的行径已然暴露,却还是看出皇上心情不佳,于是放下汤碗柔声询问,“陛下您怎么了?可是政务繁忙累着了?快喝些汤补补,然后趁早歇息。正所谓留着青山在不怕没柴烧,您若累坏了身子,江山社稷怎么办,满朝文武怎么办,天下黎民怎么办?臣妾,臣妾又该怎么办?若是没有您护着,臣妾早就死了。”话落目中已盈满泪光,显得孱弱而又可怜。

    若换成平时,圣元帝早就好声好气地安慰,现在却无端有些反感。他已经知道,看似柔弱的叶蓁,实则骨子里极其强硬,要手段有手段,要心机有心机,连太后和诸妃都不是她的对手,哪还是当年那温婉纯善的小家碧玉。

    没有自己护着她早就死了?这却是个笑话。思及此,圣元帝果真笑了出来,徐徐道,“听说叶家欲把你堂妹送入镇北侯府为妾,你今日大张旗鼓地为她添妆,送了不少贵重东西?”

    叶蓁泪珠一凝,迟疑道,“是啊,叶繁最喜两个孩子,可说是从小看着他们长大,日后入了侯府还能替臣妾尽些心力。臣妾感念她照管之恩,这才厚赏。陛下特意提起此事,可有什么不妥?”

    “镇北侯的婚事乃朕亲赐,镇北侯夫人的诰命乃朕亲封。”圣元帝慢慢搅动汤勺,言道,“朕前脚促成良缘,叶家后脚就逼迫镇北侯纳妾,你又大张旗鼓为一个妾室做脸,掌掴镇北侯夫人,掌掴帝师府,亦掌掴朕之脸面。你是不是对朕有什么不满?”

    他语气并不严苛,甚至有些漫不经心,叶蓁却从中感知到了刀剑相逼的锋利。放眼大魏,谁敢对圣意不满,岂不是寿星公上吊——活得不耐烦了?然而细细一想,她之前的所作所为明里是为叶繁做脸,暗里何尝未有折辱关家之意?

    然而她却忘了最紧要的一点,关家是陛下一手捧上去的,他们的脸面就是儒家的脸面、国学的脸面,更是陛下的脸面,他们与陛下才是一条船上的人,而叶家,不过沾一点外戚的边罢了。

    刚思及此,叶蓁又听皇上说道,“前朝有内闱之乱,外戚之祸,其害之甚犹如兵灾。朕知恩图报还你一生无忧,你也该谨守本分、安常履顺。看看你现在都做了什么?假公济私、欺压贤臣,折辱命妇,插手朝事,便是有再多恩情也不够你消磨。朕本不想与你多说,然你既提起旧情,朕也少不得点醒一二,却也只这一次,断没有下回。你且好自为之吧。”

    听到这里,叶蓁已是汗出如浆,单衣湿透,噗通一声跪下,哀告道,“臣妾一时糊涂,求陛下恕罪!臣妾忘不了两个孩子,忘不了侯爷,更忘不了曾经的阖家欢乐,见他另娶她人,竟被嫉妒冲昏头脑,做出那等大逆不道之事。臣妾绝不敢对陛下有任何不满,更不敢纵容家人为祸朝堂,臣妾知错了,求陛下看在臣妾也是个可怜人的份上饶我一回吧,呜呜呜……”话落已语不成声,痛哭流涕。

    叶蓁果然忘不了赵陆离,忘不了两个孩子?果然是因为嫉妒才会大张旗鼓地给叶繁做脸?圣元帝心道未必,却也懒得深究,只因这些事与他毫无关系。但叶蓁若是因此而害了他极其欣赏,甚至引为知己的女子;损了他与帝师、太常的君臣情谊,却是万万不能宽宥。叶蓁名义上是他的女人,叶蓁做的事,自然也会算到他头上。

    “在御前哭哭啼啼成何体统。下去吧,近日里待在甘泉宫内好好反省,下不为例。”对叶蓁的耐心似乎已快挥霍光了,他摆手撵人,语气冷沉。

    叶蓁不敢多留,连忙起身告辞,回到甘泉宫才瘫软在床,后怕不已。最近几年她过得顺风顺水,竟有些得意忘形起来,真把自己当成外界传言的那般受宠。然而事实如何唯有她自己清楚。那些靠恩情支撑的一戳就破的荣宠,怎能与关家实打实的权利相抗衡?逼迫侯府纳妾,又为叶繁做脸,这两步棋却是走得大错特错!

    “娘娘,咱们该不该把赐给叶家的东西要回来?”咏荷压低嗓音询问。方才在大殿上,她也吓得半死,这才知道自家娘娘在皇上跟前似乎没那么得脸,至少比起关家来说差远了。

    “要回来?那本宫就真成笑话了。传令下去,甘泉宫从现在开始闭宫锁门,谢绝拜访。善后之事陛下自会处理,无需旁人插手,我们只管摆出悔罪的姿态就成。本宫累了,想一个人待会儿,你们都下去吧。”

    众人鱼贯而出,叶蓁木呆呆地坐了许久才闭上眼,尽情流露心底的恐惧与难堪。无论皇上怎样善后,必要踩着叶家捧起关家,此次做脸不成,反倒被打了脸,着实输得惨烈。下回行事断不能如此草率。然而她的爪牙已被太后剪除,这会儿就算想给叶家递个口信,让他们安分守己切莫招摇,也是有心无力,惟愿诸人自我警醒而已。
