Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Litter of Women
The red sleeves are dressed in a short dress, which is different from the usual palace maid attire, Mu Chenghuang frowned slightly when he saw it, the red sleeves were used to dressing like this when he was at home, but if he entered the palace, it would be a little too out of place to dress like this.

Mu Chenghuang motioned to Wen Zhi to fetch the palace clothes prepared for Red Sleeves for her, and asked Red Sleeves about going to Longhu Mountain, the news that Red Sleeves had found out in Lingnan before Mu Chenghuang already knew, she asked from Ying Baolin's mouth at that time Qiu Shi connected the news of the person in Lingnan, and followed the check, the person had already left, and I didn't know whether he heard the wind so he deliberately avoided it, or if there were other arrangements.
However, Red Sleeves asked around, this person was a man, the same age as Qiu Shi, and his figure was also very similar to Qiu Shi, but other than that, there were no other clues.
And the Heavenly Master Dojo of Longhu Mountain, at this time, Guo Tianli took many apprentices to live in the Taiji Hall in the palace, which was the time when the guards of Longhu Mountain were the weakest.
Red sleeves entered the hall, Baojuan was waiting outside, now there were only the two of them, red sleeves quickly took out a map from the cuffs, although the depiction was rough, but it could probably be seen clearly, but there were no words on this map, only pictures, red sleeves said while unfolding the map: "The Heavenly Master Dojo is very clean, there is nothing deliberate, Guo Tian locked the study very tightly when he left, but every once in a while there will be apprentices to go in and clean, and the slave and maid lurked nearby for a long time before finding a chance to sneak in, I waited for the apprentice to come out next time I cleaned, so I delayed coming back for a while. ”
"It's okay." Mu Chenghuang already felt that Red Sleeves had done a good job in her heart, but looking at this map, she only recognized that a large piece of land in the middle was Dashun, surrounded by some affiliated small countries, and the northernmost was Beiliang, so she didn't know what Red Sleeves meant by bringing it back.
Red sleeves said: "This is the mural in Guo Tianli's study, which draws a map of the world, but the slave maid found that there is a place where the face is very light, as if it is often touched." As he spoke, Red Sleeves stretched out his hand and pointed to a small group of countries east of Beiliang, where the borders of these small countries intersect and merge with each other, and there are as many as seven or eight, but these small countries are not on the Dashun version of the world map, either Guo Tianli's map is wrong, or these small countries no longer exist.
It is unlikely that Guo Tianli will hang out a wrong map, but if it is a few small countries that are no longer there, why would Guo Tianli hang out such an old-fashioned map?
Mu Chenghuang felt that Red Sleeves' mind was not ordinary and delicate, this was indeed a problem, and it was a seemingly small but critical problem, Mu Chenghuang had to find the old version of the map to know where Guo Tianli was so obsessed.
"What else?" Mu Chenghuang put away this map, this thing is very important, she is bound to hide it.
"Also," Red Sleeves lowered his head slightly, and said, "The slave maid also found a portrait in his study, which was a woman, the date of the portrait was twenty years ago, and the person who wrote it was Guo Tianli, but the woman in the portrait was like the princess. ”
Twenty years ago, Mu Chenghuang's first reaction was his biological mother, but he didn't expect that Guo Tianli and his mother still had such a relationship, the two must be acquainted, otherwise, how could Guo Tianli have a portrait of this person.
Mu Chenghuang's heart was suddenly confused, she wanted to clear her thoughts all of a sudden, but she subconsciously asked, "What else?" ”
Red sleeves hung his head: "The slave is incompetent, the Dragon and Tiger Mountain is heavily guarded, and the slave and maid only found these." ”
"That's enough." Everyone has already entered Guo Tianli's study, can she ask for anything?
It happened that Wen Zhi had already taken the palace clothes at this time, and while he was waiting outside, Mu Chenghuang took a look, but asked the red sleeves to change his clothes, and he was going to go to Shoukang Palace to ask for peace later.
Although Empress Dowager Pei was able to get out of bed and walk around a few days ago, her health was not yet very good, and Mu Yuanan had explicitly forbidden concubines to disturb the Empress Dowager, so everyone hadn't seen Empress Dowager Pei for several days, but today, Empress Dowager Pei's body and bones have really recovered, and they are also ruddy, Tang Baolin and Li Zhaoyuan also went to Shoukang Palace this morning to ask for peace, and by the way, they reported what happened in the Sixth Palace recently.
Although it is only a few days of hard work, Li Zhaoyuan and Tang Baolin are also busy with the affairs of the six palaces, especially Tang Baolin, his body is not necessarily very good, but it is a pity that Li Zhaoyuan is a little abrupt, many things Tang Baolin must watch, which palace has an extra needle, which palace is missing a little sugar, the little masters in this palace will be careful, and there is really no room for a little mistake.
When Mu Chenghuang arrived, there were already two or three voices talking in the dormitory.
"I really didn't expect that the queen mother would be so kind to the minions in the palace on weekdays, but this Peiwen, but she will take revenge, and she has such a murderous intention, I am afraid that the medicine powder in this white jade Buddha bead is also put in by this Peiwen, and I want to frame the five princesses, but the emperor also regarded Peiwen as a witness at that time, but I didn't expect that this was a prison guard stealing." This is Li Zhaoyuan's voice, Li Zhaoyuan has always spoken a little bluntly, such words sound like he is comforting the Empress Dowager Pei, but if Mu Chenghuang is the Empress Dowager Pei, it will only be more unpleasant to listen to it.
Yu Dong at the door looked a little haggard, although he was released by the court bureau, but what kind of place is the court bureau, the immortals have to take off a layer of skin when they enter, Yu Dong's eyes were a little distracted, and he looked at Mu Chenghuang coming, until he was only two or three steps closer, Yu Dong reacted: "The fifth princess is here." Then, he wanted to reach out and open the curtain for Mu Chenghuang.
Mu Chenghuang stopped her hand and whispered in a slightly apologetic tone: "It's useless in this palace, you worked hard to deliver the news, but this palace failed to check all the way, but made Pei Wen a substitute for death." ”
Yu Dong and Pei Wen are not familiar with each other, but she always remembers that when Pei Wen poked his head out of the fence of the cell, he innocently asked her if the Queen Mother was fine, and if it was okay, they would all let her out, and then told her that she had the same illness as the Queen Mother.
Now Empress Dowager Pei is indeed fine, and the people in Shoukang Palace are indeed safe and have returned to the palace safely, except for Pei Wen, of course.
Yu Dong didn't speak, but still reached out to lift the curtain, just waiting for Mu Chenghuang to walk past her, and said in a low voice: "The slave knows that the fifth princess has done her best." ”
Mu Chenghuang's eyebrows raised slightly, but he was already dragged to the middle by the enthusiasm in the hall.
"Look at these five princesses, they have really lost a lot of weight, pitiful." Yang Baolin stepped forward and pulled Mu Chenghuang, he and Yang Baolin were nodding friends at best, she was so enthusiastic, it really made Mu Chenghuang a little uncomfortable.
Mu Chenghuang just looked up at the Empress Dowager Pei who was sitting in the middle, Empress Dowager Pei had also lost a lot of weight, her cheeks, which had been aging and loose because of age, seemed to have been drained, her cheeks were slightly sunken, and her eyelids were drooping, but her eyes were still kind and soft, exuding this kind of loving light.
Mu Chenghuang Yingying walked up to the Empress Dowager Pei and saluted the Empress Dowager Pei: "Granddaughter Chenghuang, please say hello to the Empress Dowager." ”
However, in a short sentence, it seemed to explain a lot of things to the Empress Dowager Pei, who leaned on the soft pillow and couldn't get up, but just stretched out her hand and made a gesture to help her up: "You have suffered." ”
Yang Baolin said with a smile: "Isn't this counted, is it bittersweet?" ”
Empress Dowager Pei asked Mama Gu to lead the little palace maid to Mu Chenghuang to take a seat, Mu Chenghuang sat next to Tang Baolin, Tang Baolin glanced at Mu Chenghuang softly, this is the first time the two have met since the accident, Mu Chenghuang nodded at Tang Baolin, and Tang Baolin also understood.
A group of women always have endless topics to talk about together, but most of them wish the Queen Mother good health, and feel sorry for Mu Chenghuang, taking this opportunity, these palace concubines are also full of energy to perform, what ginseng in the northeast, pearl powder in the South China Sea, and cordyceps in the highlands in the west, they are all offered one by one.
Empress Dowager Pei didn't refuse, she was just afraid that she had been prepared earlier, knowing that as soon as her illness was cured, there would definitely be a lot of people who would take advantage of this to come over, and let Mama Gu accept all the gifts she gave.
The most outstanding nature is the jade pot sent by Concubine Xi, the jade pot is carved with a piece of mutton fat jade, and the most ingenious change is on the armrest, the face of the jade is slightly different, the face should be yellowish, but I don't know which craftsman's ingenuity, the yellow place carved into the shape of a few plum blossoms, it looks lifelike, just like a few plum blossoms climbed on the jade pot, one end out, it is indeed to make everyone look sideways.
If **** uses such a jade pot to make tea, it is strange to want to get sick, Concubine Xi knows that Empress Dowager Pei loves to drink tea, so she naturally likes it.
"Sister Xi's shot is really the most generous," Li Zhaoyuan said with a smile, "But I heard that this Yuan general is still grounded, and I don't know who found such a baby for Sister Xi." ”
Concubine Xi smiled, and deliberately touched her round pregnant belly in front of Li Zhaoyuan, and the happiness on her face was full: "Although my brother is grounded, this is going to send the queen mother's company, and I wish the queen mother a physical recovery, naturally it is not sloppy, even if the palace personally digs stones and chiseles jade, the palace is also willing, but now that the queen mother has recovered, this power to govern the six palaces, my sister seems to be not suitable to hold it in her hands all the time." ”
Finally got to the point, Mu Chenghuang and Empress Dowager Pei both had accidents before, Li Zhaoyuan and Tang Baolin were temporary agents, which was Mu Yuanan's meaning, but now the Queen Mother is very good, and whose hands are left with this power is not a matter of the Queen Mother's words. ...
