Chapter 221: Ask for Questions

Speaking of that day. Yiju Pavilion came to the distinguished guest, who was the steward eunuch in the Empress Dowager's palace, Mr. Zhang.

The eunuchs all look like that, with thief eyebrows and rat eyes, and they really don't attract Lu Yun's attention. Lu Yun said casually: Father-in-law will go back first, I'll go over later.

Mr. Zhang was in a dilemma, the Queen Mother sent him to invite people, but it was not up to others to say, he had to take people back.

Caiyun, who was still standing on the side, was reasonable, only to see her say: Niangniang, the queen mother asked the chief manager to invite Niangniang over, maybe there is something important, and it can't be delayed.

After listening to Caiyun's words, Lu Yun looked at Manager Zhang. Manager Zhang is also very knowledgeable, and immediately put on a smiling face, bowed down and nodded, and said: Niangniang, the queen mother means, please go over as soon as possible. If the slave goes back alone, I'm afraid the queen mother will be angry.

Hearing this, Lu Yun had no choice but to say: Since this is the case, then I will go with you.

When he arrived at the gate of Yongshou Palace, he saw Yu Xuan walking out of the hall of Yongshou Palace and walking towards Lu Yun and the others, obviously leaving. Yu Xuan also saw Lu Yun and showed a trace of doubt, but after seeing Manager Zhang who was leading the way in front, he understood.

I saw the two of them entering and leaving, and when they got closer, Lu Yun stopped and saluted first: The concubine asks the emperor for peace.

Yu Xuan stopped in front of Lu Yun and said, "Get up."

Lu Yun got up and said, "Emperor Xie."

Yu Xuan nodded, walked past Lu Yun's side, and walked towards the palace gate.

At this time, Manager Zhang saw Lu Yun staring at Yu Xuan's back, so he said loudly: Niangniang, the Queen Mother is waiting inside, let's go in quickly!

Lu Yun turned his head and walked straight to the hall.

Entering the temple gate, Mr. Zhang led the way. After walking a few steps, I arrived at the side hall, turned around, passed through the curtain, and saw the Queen Mother sitting on the warm platform built by the window. The conservatorium is set up next to the window, and in the center stands a small square low table with a few plates of snacks on it. The Queen Mother sat on the left side. So, when Lu Yuncai passed through the curtain, he saw the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother also saw her at a glance.

Seeing the Queen Mother looking at her, Lu Yun put on a smiling face, lowered his head and walked a few steps closer, stepped forward and saluted: Yun'er greets the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother said: Get up.

After the others got up, they said: If I don't invite you, will you forget to say goodbye to the mourners?

Lu Yun listened to it and said with a smile: What did the Queen Mother say? It's just that it was cold a few days ago and I didn't want to run. I didn't come to say goodbye!

The Queen Mother said with a smile: Are you telling the truth?

Lu Yundao: Of course it's the truth! How could the Queen Mother say that about Yun'er?

The Queen Mother snorted and deliberately blamed: Who said no! The mourning family asked people to invite you, I'm afraid you still won't give up?

As soon as these words came out, the waist of Manager Zhang, who was standing aside and waiting, hung lower. And Lu Yun didn't look at him, and after taking a step closer to the Queen Mother, he said coquettishly: Queen Mother, how can Yun'er not come? Why do you always like to joke with Yun'er?

The Queen Mother laughed and said: If you listen to the words of the mourning family, can the mourning family say about you?

After listening to the words, Lu Yun said in a low voice: Yun'er listens to the Queen Mother's words.

Seeing that she looked well-behaved, she didn't say anything joking.

I only heard the Queen Mother say: Yun'er, you sit there first.

Lu Yun nodded obediently and sat opposite the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother said: Since Yun'er listened to the words of the mourning family, then the next questions of the mourning family must be answered honestly.

When Lu Yun heard this, he felt uneasy, but he still replied: Yun'er will tell the truth.

The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction. Then asked: Then tell the mourning family, what are you doing with the emperor in the cold palace?

Lu Yun replied: There is a forest there, and it is said that in this winter, the scenery there is better than the imperial garden, so I will go with the emperor to take a look.

The Queen Mother then asked: Where else did you go except for that forest?

Lu Yun pondered for a while before replying: I went to the Cold Hidden Palace.

Seeing that the Queen Mother was silent, Lu Yun looked over. At this moment, the Queen Mother asked: Why did the emperor go to the Cold Palace?

When asked like that, Lu Yun lowered his eyes and said: Yun'er brought the emperor up.

The Queen Mother said: Why do you want to take the emperor up?

Heard Lu Yun say in a low voice: It's just that Yun'er thinks-

As he spoke, Lu Yun raised his head slightly and looked at the queen of heaven. saw that the queen of heaven was also staring at her. Lu Yun was a little panicked for a moment, and then said: Sister Qing is a little pitiful to live there, and I thought at that time that it would be good if the emperor could go to see my sister. So I asked the emperor if he would go up.

After a while, I heard the Queen Mother say: Did the emperor go there later?

Lu Yun replied: No.

The Queen Mother said: That's good. By the way, have you been there again recently?

Lu Yun looked at the Queen Mother and asked: What did the Queen Mother say?

The Queen Mother said: Lengyou Palace. Have you been there again recently?

Lu Yun's eyes dodged, and he said: Go.

When the Queen Mother heard this, she first sighed, and then said softly: Yun'er, don't you know that Lengyou Palace is the place where the concubines of the abolished queen live?

After hearing this, Lu Yun had no choice but to reply: Yun'er understands.

Seeing that she was gentle and obedient, the Queen Mother couldn't say anything more, so she said: Okay, that's it for today. Listen to the mourners, and don't go back in the future. Otherwise, the mourning family will be angry.

Lu Yun responded: Yun'er understands.

Since returning to Yiju Pavilion, Lu Yun has been depressed and unwilling to eat dinner.

And in the Chaoxiang Palace, it can be described as peaceful. After hearing that Lu Yun came out of Yongshou Palace with a bored look, Du Niangniang of the minions rarely did not punish the palace maids who did something wrong.

In recent days, Qi Xuan had never seen Lu Yun, and he wondered, if he wanted to, before that, in two days, the master of Yiju Pavilion would come to play, but it had been five days. Today is the sixth day, and no one is coming, so it's no wonder that Qi Xuan feels strange.

After listening to Qi Xuan's words, Dye Zhi thought that just as Qi Xuan said, Lu Yun hadn't been here for many days. I can't help asking: Qi Xuan, did you say that Lu Niangniang has been entangled in things recently?

Qi Xuan poured hot water into the teapot and replied: I don't think so.

Dye Branch: What do you say?

Qi Xuandao: Do you remember that a few days ago, the emperor came up.

Dye Zhi remembered and said: Yes, I still felt strange at the time, how could the emperor come?

Qi Xuan smiled and said: At that time, the emperor came with Lu Niangniang, and in my opinion, it must have been Niangniang who brought the emperor over. But because of this, the emperor didn't allow Lu Niangniang to come again!

The dye branch was unknown, and asked: Why didn't the emperor allow Lu Niangniang to come?

Qi Xuan said: Dye Zhi, don't you still understand? This cold and secluded palace is where the abolished concubines live, and it is a "cold palace"! How can there be any reason for the emperor to come again, naturally other concubines are not allowed to come.

Hearing that, Dye Zhi thought thoughtfully. She felt that things might not be as Qi Xuan said, and there must be a reason for it.
