Chapter 34: You're lying

The summer of Yongtai's three years came very early, and the weather in the capital was too hot in early June. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

After the concubines' daily routine greetings, Queen Pei returned to the inner room and sat crooked on the beauty couch.

The imperial doctors had instructed her body not to use ice, so no matter how hot the day was, she could only call two little palace maids to fan on the side.

The breeze blew, but it couldn't alleviate the irritability in her heart.

"Niangniang, Mama Zheng brought someone here. Outside the house, the voice of the palace maid came from the house.

Empress Pei's slightly closed eyes opened instantly, and with a slight lift of her hand, the two little palace maids retreated in amusement.

"Come in. The voice was soft and awe-inspiring.

Soon, Mama Zheng bowed in with a person dressed as a eunuch.

"Niangniang, the old slave brought Ah Mao here. Mama Zheng saluted and stood beside Queen Pei.

The man dressed as a eunuch knelt down and said, "The slave Zheng Amao has seen Niangniang, Niangniang Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose. ”

Empress Pei didn't tell him to be flat, but sat up straight and looked carefully for a long time before saying, "Zheng Amao, it seems that you have had a really good life in the past ten years." ”

In order to pretend to be a eunuch and sneak into the palace, Zheng Amao shaved his beard that he had kept for several years early this morning, and the whole person looked fat and white, which was like the thin little gangster more than ten years ago.

He has been in the business for more than ten years, and he can be regarded as a person who has seen the world, but he is still very nervous by this atmosphere, and a drop of sweat the size of a bean runs down his sideburns.

He was very frightened and said: "Hongfu of Niangniang, the slave life is still passable." ”

Empress Pei said: "Two months have passed since the day Mama Zheng wrote your letter, you can explain to the palace why you haven't entered Beijing until now?"

Zheng Amao prostrate on the ground and said: "The slave went to Quanzhou, Fujian Province in April to talk about business, and was not in Jiaxing Mansion, until mid-May I saw the letter written by my aunt to the slave, and then I accelerated the trip to the capital, and did not dare to delay for half a moment. ”

Queen Pei said: "Get up and talk back." ”

Zheng Amao kowtowed heavily before standing up, but he still didn't dare to raise his head.

Empress Pei looked at her freshly trimmed nails, and said coldly: "Because of the trust in your whole family, this palace has never asked about the outcome of that incident, and now thirteen years have passed, you honestly confess, is that person dead or alive?"

Zheng Amao said: "That person's life and death are all Niangniang's words, since Niangniang wanted her to live, of course she must live." ”

A glimmer of light flashed in Empress Pei's eyes: "What about her?"

Zheng Amao said respectfully: "According to Niangniang's instructions, the slave brought her to Jiangnan, and after she was raised to the age of two, she was sent to Yangzhou Chunyi Pavilion, and it is precisely because of this that the slave chose to stay in Jiangnan in order to monitor nearby." ”

"Spring Pavilion?" Empress Pei became even more interested.

Zheng Amao still didn't dare to look up, and explained very patiently: "Spring Pavilion is the most famous green building in Yangzhou in the past 20 years, and the annual Oiran comes from there. ”

Empress Pei was almost in high spirits, and her voice became brighter: "Then how does she look now...... Well...... Is innocence still there?"

She wanted to ask if she had picked up the customer, but she felt that it would be a loss of identity to say something like that, so she had to change her words.

"Hui Niangniang, that girl has the posture of a captivating city, but she is still too young at the age of thirteen, and Qinglou is the most particular about strange goods to live in, so she will not be let out to pick up guests so early. Zheng Amao's voice was very calm, and he couldn't hear the previous panic at all.

Empress Pei has always been very confident in her vision, and Zheng Amao at this moment does not seem to be half a liar.

She pondered for a moment and then smiled: "In this case, you work hard again, bring her into the capital and let me see, the flower of the peerless elegance and allure of the city has been wronged in Yangzhou, and she should be allowed to bloom in the imperial capital." ”

It's not that she doesn't believe in Zheng Amao, it's just that some things have to be implemented by herself to be completely relieved.

Let alone...... She really didn't want to miss that kind of grand occasion, otherwise what was the point of taking the risk back then.

Zheng Amao was a little creepy by her laughter, and hurriedly replied: "How dare you say anything for your mother, the slave will retire." ”

Queen Pei turned her head to Mama Zheng and said, "Mama, send Ah Mao out of the palace for the palace, and reward Ah Mao's daughter-in-law with the first few heads and faces." ”

Mama Zheng and Amao Zheng knelt down again to thank Queen Pei for her grace, and the aunt and nephew went away together.

Two quarters of an hour later, the two went out of the palace gate and got into Zheng Amao's carriage.

Zheng Amao seemed to have his muscles and bones removed, and the whole person fell softly on the small couch.

"Mao, you're lying. Mama Zheng leaned into his ear, and her voice was even colder than that of Queen Pei.

The corners of Zheng Amao's mouth twitched slightly, and he didn't even bother to move his eyelids: "My aunt looks up to her nephew too much, I'm timid, how dare I deceive the queen." ”

Mama Zheng was angry with his face, grabbed Zheng Amao's collar and said: "As soon as you lied since you were a child, your right shoulder will droop down, and the queen can't see it, but she doesn't want to deceive the old lady!"

Zheng Amao finally opened his eyes and sneered: "So what? If you have the ability, you go to the queen mother to expose me, what benefit can you get when I die? I can't write two Zheng characters in one stroke, and the two of us are grasshoppers on a rope! What's more, don't forget how much money your family has spent on me in the past ten years!"

Mama Zheng was anxious, and looked at Zheng Amao's face with a big ear scraper: "You little white-eyed wolf, when did the old lady say that she was going to expose you? I just want to ask what happened in the first place!"

Zheng Amao gently stroked his red skin and said mockingly: "What is there to ask, didn't I just say it, that person is in Yangzhou Chunyi Pavilion, I will let you see her next month." ”

Mama Zheng said, "What do you mean ......?"

Zheng Amao closed his eyes again: "I said she is she, no, I said she is not, yes and no." This is not a light in the first place, even if it is a high-ranking queen mother, what can she do with me? Even if she wants to kill me, she has to consider whether she will dirty her hands. ”

Mama Zheng gritted her teeth: "You kid is really a dog who can't change his, the queen mother is my grandmother, she is not an ordinary soft-hearted and kind woman." ”

Zheng Amao was already about to fall asleep, and muttered: "The wasp tail needle, the most poisonous woman's heart...... Even if it's an ordinary woman, I never dare to underestimate it...... Your boss can rest assured, I will definitely do a very safe job in this matter, so that Pei Tingyu can't find the slightest fault, you better go back and enjoy her happiness. ”

Hearing him call the queen's name without scruples, Mama Zheng had a headache.

But so what?

As Zheng Amao just said, they are already grasshoppers on a rope, even if they know that he lied to the queen mother, what can she do?

She leaned into his ear in a lower voice and asked, "Tell me what happened back then." ”

Zheng Amao seemed to be asleep, and he was not willing to take care of her at all. (To be continued.) )
