612. to the world
Aunt Xu led the way without saying a word, Chanyi walked behind Aunt Xu, and the two maids followed one left and one right.
Chanyi watched Aunt Xu take her away from the main hall more and more, and the uneasiness in her heart became more and more surging, only to feel that today was not only a good banquet, maybe something else was going to happen, she was very uneasy, and she looked sideways at Jinxin under nervousness.
Jin Xin and Chan Yi glanced at each other, blinked twice, Chan Yi put her heart back into her stomach, but the more she walked from the palace road, the more cool it became, Chan Yi was originally a little tired because she had stood for more than an hour, and she felt more and more uncomfortable at this time, and stopped.
Aunt Xu noticed that Chan Yi was standing still with a patient face, and turned her head to look at Chan Yi a little impatiently, "Why didn't the princess leave?" ”
Chanyi didn't know where it was, but intuitively it wouldn't be something that would make people feel happy, she squatted down with a painful face, and looked at Aunt Xu apologetically: "My stomach hurts so much, I can't bear it, can my aunt take me to the nearest clean room?"
Aunt Xu looked at her suspiciously, a sneer of contempt flashed on her face, and then changed to a respectful smile: "If the princess endures it, there is a side hall ahead, there is everything there, just a few steps away." ”
Where is Chanyi willing to go, squatting directly on the ground and simply can't get up, the weather in the cold winter of Layue is very cold, Aunt Xu is not wearing a thick one, when serving in the main hall, the main hall burns the earth dragon and places a charcoal basin It is very warm, where has she been frozen like this, she can't stand it at the moment, and the expression on her face has become a little hideous.
"The princess should not embarrass the slave and maid, if you want to complain, you will complain that you have angered the queen mother, otherwise in this cold day, who is willing to go to a place like the side hall to suffer? ”
Chanyi listened to the meaning of Aunt Xu's words, and instead of teaching her the rules like the queen said, it seemed as if she was going to imprison her, she immediately became alarmed, there must be something in the palace, otherwise the queen would not be able to embarrass her as a princess at this juncture.
She squatted on the ground and couldn't get up, her eyes looked at Jinxin, and when she saw Jinxin bowing slightly, she pretended to be in pain, and said slowly: "Aunt Xu's words are misunderstood, and the concubine is really ...... It's because ......"
Aunt Xu saw that she seemed to be so painful that she couldn't speak, the last sentence was vague in her mouth, so that people couldn't hear clearly, she lowered her head and approached Chanyi, trying to understand the words in her mouth, but suddenly her eyes were dark, and the whole person fell to the ground motionless.
"Princess, what should you do with Aunt Xu?" Jinxin asked while rubbing her wrist, "The slave maid sees that she is a close confidant of the queen's mother, if she throws people aside so inexplicably, I'm afraid it's not good." ”
Chanyi stood up, straightened her clothes, glanced at Aunt Xu, who was unconscious, and said softly: "Take her with you and go to Ci'an Palace to meet the Queen Mother." ”
In the palace, no matter how big it is, it can't be the queen mother, no matter who or what, as long as it is related to the safety of the government and the emperor, it should not be underestimated, and the queen mother will not ignore it, so Chanyi decided to go to the queen mother as soon as possible, even if there is anything, there is also the queen mother in front of her head.
……
The Queen Mother was eating bird's nest in Ci'an Palace, and Aunt Shu Yue beside her was holding an ebony comb to help the Queen Mother comb her hair.
Aunt Shu Yue said with a smile: "How many years, the Queen Mother's hair is still so bright and bright, the slave and maid have combed their hair for so many years, and the most proud thing for the slave and maid is to comb the Queen Mother's hair in a dignified atmosphere, which makes people envious when they see it." ”
The Queen Mother glanced at her with a smile: "Such a compliment, you have been talking about it from the young time of the mourning family to the present, and you don't change the way you put it, the mourning family has grown like this, where is the demeanor of your youth?"
Aunt Shu Yue hurriedly said: "Ouch, the Queen Mother said this, wouldn't she want to let a person like the slave and maid be killed headlong?" Look in the mirror, is you old or the slave and maid old, the slave and the maid are one year younger than the maid, and now it looks like the eldest lady is ten years old, you have to give the slave and maid the recipe you maintain. ”
Aunt Shu Yue's words made the Queen Mother laugh, patted her arm while laughing, and turned her head to the other palace servants who served: "Look at her, she is simply here to ask the mourning family for a reward," said and pretended to be angry and glanced at her, "The mourning family is with you every day, and it will not leave you for a moment, what kind of maintenance method do you say the mourning family has!"
Aunt Shu Yue pretended to have an epiphany and said: "It turns out that the Queen Mother wants to tell the slave maid that you are born beautiful!"
As soon as this sentence came out, it made the Queen Mother laugh, and while laughing, she reached out to hit her, "You look so old, but you are more and more improper, making me laugh like this." ”
Aunt Shu Yue was just about to say something, when she heard the palace people outside come in and say, "Queen Mother, Prince An and Princess Ann ask to see you." ”
The Queen Mother's laughter stopped in an instant, and she glanced at Aunt Shu Yue.
Shu Yue nodded and walked out of the inner room.
It's just that when she saw the scene in front of her, she knew in her heart that Princess An was definitely not an ordinary greeting, so she was stunned for a moment, and said, "Princess, this is?"
Aunt Shu Yue looked at her with verifying eyes, and Chanyi hurriedly said, "I have something important to ask to see the Queen Mother!"
Aunt Shu Yue has been in the palace for many years, so naturally she will not fail to recognize Aunt Xu who is driven by two maids, she knows that Aunt Xu is the queen's henchman, if it is not for important matters, it is impossible to be assigned by the queen, so she immediately said: "Wait a minute, the princess, the queen mother is still resting, wait for me to say goodbye." ”
Chanyi smiled and said, "There is Aunt Lao." ”
Aunt Shu Yue entered the inner room and told the Queen Mother about Princess An's request to see the unconscious Aunt Xu, and the Queen Mother couldn't help but ponder.
Although the queen was lifted from the grounding by the emperor, she probably knew a thing or two about the emperor's thoughts, and the emperor would never reactivate the Wei family because of this matter, not to mention that the queen was a main room that he had never liked, so the emperor's move was nothing more than to reassure the prince.
The Queen Mother thought about it, asked Aunt Shu Yue to comb her in a bun, changed into a regular dress, and passed Chanyi in.
Chanyi saluted respectfully, and after saying some auspicious words, she talked about what happened in the queen's palace.
“…… Originally, today was to come to the palace to accompany the queen to keep the New Year, the concubine did not know the time of the banquet in the palace, the queen asked Aunt Xu to teach the concubine the rules of the palace, and the concubine was obedient to receive the order, but the queen Mother next to this Aunt Xu didn't know if she had taken the wrong medicine, and she took the concubine to a deserted palace.
"The concubine was afraid that someone was going to calculate the concubine, so she ordered the maid to knock Aunt Xu unconscious, and after thinking about it, she felt that Aunt Xu might have been instructed to frame the concubine, and the concubine thought that Aunt Xu was a slave who served in front of the queen's mother, and if the concubine returned to Chaofeng Palace, she was afraid that Aunt Xu would frame the concubine with a red mouth and white teeth, and the concubine had to bring Aunt Xu to the queen mother.
"I also asked the mother to be the master of the concubine. ”
To this day, Chanyi has not called the Queen Mother the Imperial Grandmother, but because the Queen Mother has always disliked Chu Shaoyuan, she doesn't even like the Queen Mother, so she naturally won't insist on coming forward to please the Queen Mother's boredom.
Just in the ears of the Queen Mother, she heard a little rusty, she looked at Aunt Xu who was unconscious on the ground, and then looked at Chanyi, the dislike in her heart became more and more serious, and said in a deep voice: "That is the case, you should not bring people to the mourning family, the mourning family has ignored the harem for many years." ”
Chanyi was very surprised, although she didn't say what was hidden behind this matter, but the Queen Mother didn't think about it at all, why did Aunt Xu dare to take her to the uninhabited side hall? Why did Aunt Xu speak to her so unkindly? You must know that the prince has lost power, even if Aunt Xu is the queen's henchman, no matter how she is, she is also a minion, which annoys her, and Chu Shaoyuan will not be polite to Aunt Xu when she turns her head.
And this kind of strangeness shows that there must be something brewing in the palace, although she doesn't know what it is, but in the previous life, she has been a housekeeper grandmother in the Hou Mansion for many years, although she has not many opportunities to enter the palace, but whenever there is a big event, she always has to accompany her mother-in-law Su into the palace, because the Chengbo Hou Mansion is not a powerful noble, so many things do not shy away from her, and in her experience, what is about to happen must not be a trivial matter.
But at this time, the Queen Mother turned out to be completely shirked, she couldn't help frowning, and she didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
The Queen Mother didn't like her, she knew it for a long time, but she didn't expect the Queen Mother to dislike her to this point.
She thought about it for a long time, but couldn't think of any way, so she had no choice but to retire.
……
Chaofeng Palace, the queen waited for a long time and didn't wait for Aunt Xu to come back, she couldn't help but be a little worried, she just wanted to lock Princess An in the side hall and freeze her, why didn't Aunt Xu do such a trivial matter?
The princesses greeted her here, and then they went back to the palace to prepare for tonight's dinner, and the palace was empty for a moment.
And the closer she got to that incident, the more uncomfortable the queen's heart became, and she glanced at the palace people around her: "Go to the side hall to see, why Aunt Xu hasn't come back." ”
The palace people answered.
It's just that before a stick of incense, the palace people hurriedly ran back.
"The Emperor... The queen is not good," the palace people ran in a hurry, out of breath, "Prince An sued you to the emperor, and Concubine Zhuang sent someone to invite you over!"
The queen stood up suddenly, looking at the palace man in disbelief.
The palace people were still panting urgently, and the next moment the world was spinning, especially in the heart, the pain was unbearable.
"Slut, what are you saying about this palace? This palace is good here, what's wrong? It's not good for you, a dog minion!" the queen said sharply, "Drag this slut down and scold him for forty!"
