Aunt Fangying has been in the palace for many years, and she is not a vegetarian. This sense of superiority that penetrates into his bones really doesn't take Lan Xin in his eyes. Especially when I found that I was being tricked by Lan Xin, my heart was as uncomfortable as a cat scratch.

The corners of her mouth curled slightly, and she asked with a slight raised brow: "County Lord, aren't you worried about delaying the auspicious time?"

Lan Xin took a sip of tea and said with a light smile: "This is the Imperial Palace, not the Jade Palace." ”

"What do you mean?" Aunt Fang Ying asked subconsciously, frowning.

Lan Xin smiled and explained: "The reason is very simple, in the palace, the emperor is the master here, and I am just a passerby here. ”

Fang Ying blinked her eyes and looked at Lan Xin with a puzzled expression. Hongxuan and Zhenma also looked at it for some reason.

Lan Xin gently shook the teacup in his hand, a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, looked at Fang Ying's frowning brows, and asked kindly, "Still don't understand?"

I don't understand!Fang Ying shook her head softly.

Lan Xin smiled and said, "Then I'll tell you a little story." When I was in Jiangzhou, a friend invited me to a banquet at the house. When I got to the house, she set up the banquet in a small pavilion by the lake.

The cool breeze and pleasant scenery make people feel refreshed. The refreshments at her house were also very much to my liking, and the food and drinks were delicious. It's just that later, they served a sweet soup with quail eggs and lotus seeds, the best made by the chef in their house.

I only took one spoonful and put it down. My friend took a sniff and put down the spoon as well. Later, I found out that the cook was not in a state that day, and put too much sugar, which made the soup sweet and bitter.

Later, I heard that my friend had quit the cook. Think of the cook who had been in her house for more than a decade, and lost a good job because of a mistake. ”

"If that mistake is okay in normal times, maybe I will forgive her for years of love. But she messed up the master's banquet and made the master lose face. What kind of master can tolerate such a person?" Hongxuan stood aside and said unhurriedly.

"Ahh His lips trembled, but he couldn't say a word. The praise in the palace is high and low, and there are more things to fight openly and secretly.

Fangying has also become accustomed to such a living environment. Therefore, she habitually puts the blame on the other party and takes herself out. This kind of self-righteous method is precisely slapped in the face of his master.

The emperor is the lord of a palace. Only what he doesn't want to know, nothing he doesn't know. Now that he is in Cining Palace, how can he hide it from the deaf and clear-sighted Queen Mother?

Aunt Fangying looked at Lan Xin, who was sitting there with a dead face, leisurely sipping tea. His lips trembled, and he wanted to plead, but his throat seemed to be stuck by something, and he couldn't make a sound.

It was only at this time that Mama Zhen realized that her county lord had been used as a raft. I was really angry and helpless.

Lan Xin saw that the clothes on Mama Zhen's body were already soaked with sweat, and said softly: "Mama go and bring the bird's nest porridge on the stove." After tossing for so long, I'm hungry too. ”

Mama Zhen glanced at Lan Xin in surprise, looked down at her sweat-soaked clothes, and her face couldn't help but turn red. Hurriedly said apologetically: "The old slave is really rude. This goes, this goes. ”

Lan Xin saw Mama Zhen's eyes shaking, and reminded in a low voice: "Mama go and come back quickly, I'm hungry." She reminded in a firm tone.

"County Lord!" Mama Zhen paused, her complicated tone filled with anxiety, begging, and distress.

Lan Xin said calmly, "I'm hungry!" in a flat but unmistakable tone.

"Yes, the old slave knows. Mama Zhen agreed, and sighed helplessly, alas!

Lan Xin's gaze paused on Mama Zhen's back before slowly retracting it.

Soon after Mama Zhen left, Aunt Fang Ying took the tattered auspicious clothes and the jewelry on the tray, and left in a hurry with the little palace maids.

A ray of morning light broke through the clouds and spilled over the earth, dispelling the morning fog.

Gonggong Wu was wearing a eunuch suit, holding a whisk in his hand, standing motionless at the door of the Lingbo Palace, as if he was integrated with the red-lacquered pillars under the corridor. Whether it was Mama Zhen going out, or Aunt Fangying leaving in a hurry with the little palace maids, he turned a blind eye.

Red Silk glanced at the hourglass not far away, and a hint of anxiety flashed in her eyes. Peeked at his master, his lips squirmed a few times, he wanted to say something, but he was worried about blocking his master. I had to stand silently with my hands down.

The corner of Lan Xin's eyes swept to the appearance of Hongxuan wanting to speak and stopped, and comforted in a low voice: "Don't worry, someone will be more anxious than us." ”

The Queen Mother has become accustomed to getting up early every morning to go to the small Buddha hall and recite a scripture. Moreover, during this time, even if the sky is falling, she is not allowed to be disturbed.

She knelt on a golden futon, holding Buddhist beads in her hands, her eyes closed, and her face peaceful. Sandalwood lingers, and the heart is peaceful.

Mama Gui stood calmly outside the small Buddha hall, her hands under her sleeves kept rubbing, and her eyes looked at the hourglass from time to time.

With a "squeak", the door of the small Buddha hall was opened from the inside to the outside. After Mama Gui curtsied, she hurriedly stepped forward to hold the Queen Mother's arm. His lips were pressed to her ear, and he whispered about the Lingbo Temple.

"There is such a thing?!" The Queen Mother paused, turned her head to look at Mama Gui, and a hint of fierceness flashed in her calm eyes.

Mama Gui's heart trembled, it seemed that since the Queen Mother decided to move to Cining Palace and no longer served as a director, she had never seen her make such a big fuss. She nodded stiffly, "It's true, the little palace maid who guarded the Lingbo Hall came to tell you." ”

After the Queen Mother's eyes paused for a moment, she didn't speak again, walked into the front hall in silence, sat on the rosewood chair, took the tea from Mama Gui, and sipped it gently.

Master and servant for many years, Mama Gui knows Lafayette best. She knew that Lafayette was really angry. Although she was anxious, she didn't dare to say more, let alone show it, so she could only stand aside silently.

I don't know how long it took to come, the Queen Mother Lafayette put down the tea cup in her hand and sighed helplessly. He thoughtfully glanced at the hourglass on the high corner of the wall, and said in a deep voice: "Find someone to reveal this matter to the queen mother in the Weiyang Palace." ”

Lafayette isn't going to ask about it?

"Yes, Lafayette!" said Mama Gui, and turned to go out.
