179. Chapter 179: Lord Song's Worries
Master Song immediately put down the portrait in his hand, hid it in his sleeve, and then continued to pick up the wine glass and taste the wine slowly, his expression also recovering his usual rigorous and serious expression.
"I've seen Lord Song. Three slaves and maids walked in from the outside following the attendants, each with a respectful expression, looking down at the ground, not making any other pose, and the three of them, if they did not look at their clothes or their faces, they felt a little like one person and two shadows.
"You don't have to be formal. Lord Song immediately smiled slightly, and said politely, "When you arrive in the palace, you may be the masters of the lower officials, at this time, the lower officials are also stained with a little royal light, and they can speak on an equal footing with a few people, please sit down, and the lower officials just casually ask a few things related to Princess Ning all the way." ”
The three slaves and maids only nodded slightly, but they did not speak, nor did they look at each other.
"Now that it is getting closer and closer to our country, the water and soil are gradually different from your country, although the lower officials feel more and more cordial, but they are worried that Princess Ning will not get used to it, so I want to ask the three of them to talk to the lower officials, now Princess Ning can have any discomfort, or unaccustomed to it, if there is, the lower officials immediately sent someone to the palace to report to the emperor, so as to prepare well before Princess Ning marries. Lord Song said softly.
The three slaves seemed to be waiting for someone else to speak first, and for a moment no one answered his words.
"Then please tell the slave who served Princess Lemon yesterday. Lord Song smiled slightly, not in a hurry, and said in a gentle tone, "Can you sleep peacefully?"
The slave who served Jian Ning yesterday hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "Eating and sleeping seem to be a little different from the previous days, not as stable as the previous days, I am often awakened by nightmares in the middle of the night, and keep saying that I dreamed of a woman, and the woman would suddenly disappear or become a monster in the dream, the slave thought, probably due to the hard work along the way." I invited a doctor, saying that I was depressed in my heart, and I had dreams at night, and my thoughts were depressed. ”
"Nightmare?" Lord Song immediately widened his eyes and said worriedly, "Have you said what kind of dream it is?"
The slave and maid hesitated, sighed softly, and said in a hesitant tone: "The slave and maid can't say it, but occasionally I hear that Princess Ning will suddenly call out a name in her sleep, as if it is called Tian Mei'er." ”
Sure enough, there was such a thing, Lord Song nodded, and deliberately pretended not to know and continued to ask, "But the old person that Princess Ning knows?"
The slave immediately shook her head, she actually didn't understand what happened to Jian Ning in the past two days, she had nightmares every night, and she would always wake up for two nights in a row, and her complexion was not as good as a few days ago.
They were instructed by the Queen Mother to watch Jian Ning to prevent Jian Ning from doing anything out of the ordinary, some time ago Fragrance was guarded, the four of them have not seen Fragrance again in the past few days, it is said that they are under house arrest in a carriage behind, there are several guards to take care of it, except for the must, you can not get off the carriage casually, and even when staying in the inn at night, you are also resting in the carriage.
The four of them didn't know what was going on with Jian Ning, and when they talked about it with Jian Ye, Jian Ye didn't care, saying that it might be that he was tired on the road, and he couldn't clean up Rong Qingyi, and there was a yin fire in his heart, if he didn't send it out, it would naturally be like this, it's okay, don't pay attention to her.
However, Jian Ning woke up early this morning and actually drew the appearance of the woman in her dream, which really scared her, the woman's dress showed that she was definitely not a woman from their country, and they had never seen it, and Jian Ning also became more and more irritable, and kept muttering about a white fox or something.
"Since you are not an old acquaintance, have you ever seen it?" asked Lord Song good-naturedly.
"The slaves have never seen each other. The slave and maid whispered, "Early this morning, when the slave and the maid were on duty today, Princess Ling had just woken up, and then she also painted a picture, saying that the woman in the painting was the woman in her dream, and the slaves and maids had also seen it, and it was really not the person we had seen, nor did it seem to be the women's dress of our country." It's a pity that the painting was thrown away, and the slaves and maids were also very worried, and Princess Ning's temperament seemed to be a little more impatient than a few days ago. ”
Lord Song immediately said: "This is not good, you should keep an eye on it, lest there be any unclean people and things near Princess Ning." ”
The three slaves nodded in unison.
The slave maid who was waiting for Jian Ning the day before yesterday whispered at this time: "Could it be that you saw some white fox or something on the road?" Princess Ning has always said that the woman in her dream will become a fox, Lord Song, can there be someone who knows how to exorcise evil spirits among the people who greet her, and help our princess drive away the unclean people and things she encounters along the way? The slave and maid were worried, afraid that Princess Ning would accidentally bump into something bad. ”
Lord Song frowned, he couldn't say that it wasn't a bad thing, this woman who appeared in Princess Ning's dream was actually the most favored Tian beauty of their emperor today?!
"Okay, the lower officials will pay attention. Lord Song said gently, "But is there anything else?"
The three slaves shook their heads in unison, "No, other than that, Princess Ning is fine." ”
"Send the three girls back to rest. Lord Song instructed his entourage, "I have to trouble the three girls to work hard for a few more days, and serve Princess Ning well, when I arrive in our country, Princess Ning will marry the emperor and become the new queen mother, and you will also get the emperor's favor." ”
"Thank you, Lord Song, for your words. The three slaves said in unison, and then left with the attendant who had brought them.
After sending off the three slaves and maids, the entourage hurried back again, and saw that Lord Song was still sitting at the table, holding the portrait he handed over to him in his hand and pondering, and even when he walked in, Lord Song did not have any reaction.
After waiting for a while, Song Da raised his head, looked at his entourage and said: "You bring this portrait and go first, you must see the emperor as soon as possible before we arrive, I have a pass token here, you can enter and exit the palace without hindrance." When you see the emperor, you give this portrait to the emperor, and when the emperor is not surrounded by the concubines, you must tell the emperor in detail what happened, ask the emperor to make a decision, and then, when we arrive, you will find me among the officials who greet us. ”
"Yes. The attendant nodded immediately, "The little one must live up to the trust of the adults." ”
Lord Song let out a long breath, frowned slightly, and said softly to himself: "There are many beauties in the palace, and this Tian beauty is not the only one, but why does Princess Ling dream of her in her dreams, and she dreams that she has turned into a white fox, and there is blood at the corner of her mouth? This Tian beauty does love to wear vegetarian clothes, and she likes to dress up in white clothes the most, but what does it mean that there is blood at the corner of her mouth?"
The entourage didn't dare to say much, but it seemed that he couldn't help it, and said softly: "The little one also heard Princess Ning and Jian Gongzi say something casually, as if mentioning this dream, Princess Ning said that she pointed to the woman in the dream in her dream, and scolded her for being a red face and a bad name, and she actually gave birth to such a vicious heart." Jian Gongzi said, I'm afraid that you are worried about the Qing Yi who left, and I am worried that she will be wronged outside. Princess Ning said, is this at this point, the Queen Mother will send someone to take Qingyi back, and she doesn't think about it every day, how can she dream at night?"
Lord Song looked at his entourage, his brows furrowed, but he didn't speak.
"Little Dou Guts, just repeating the conversation between Princess Ning and Jian Gongzi in the same words. The attendant immediately whispered, "However, the little one thinks that this sentence, the red face and the trouble, and what gives birth to such a vicious heart, if it really appears in a dream, I am afraid that we don't know what thoughts this Tian Meiren has in her heart." ”
Lord Song nodded, spat out a turbid breath, and said slowly: "She is the slave maid in front of Concubine Dong's son, she was born beautiful like a flower, and she is smart and clever, she is the most liked by Concubine Dong, and she can be regarded as an adult taught by Concubine Dong, and she is also the favorite of the deceased queen's mother, and later served Concubine Dong's son Lian Huangzi full-time, but somehow she fell into the eyes of the emperor and became the concubine in front of the emperor." If Princess Ning's dream is true, then it is possible that there is a conspiracy that we don't know about, the emperor has always been wise, as long as we tell the emperor, the emperor will naturally have a wise decision. ”
The entourage immediately nodded in agreement, "Although the emperor is older, he is indeed the master. ”
Outside the window, Jian Ye smiled faintly, Lord Ming?!
Forget it, count that Tian Meiren unlucky, in fact, she didn't have to choose her, just casually choose the beauty who is most favored by the emperor now, anyway, when she kills the emperor, she will also give away her life at the same time, but she also deserves this Tian beauty to be unlucky, originally she was indeed a chess piece given to the emperor by Concubine Dong and Prince Lian, and the role is to make the emperor like Prince Lian more.
And this prince is actually the prince that the queen mother wants Jian Ning to marry. It's not because of how good this prince is, compared to his mother, Concubine Dong, this prince can only be regarded as not stupid, and the queen mother chose him because Jian Ning was easy to control.
In fact, Jian Ye felt that what Jian Ning thought made sense, even if the prince was a prince who was not stupid, but after he became the emperor, Concubine Dong was also the queen mother, and there was such a smart mother-in-law who was calculating, it was really not easy for Jian Ning to gain a firm foothold in the palace, and she had to rely on the queen mother on their side to become a queen, in that case, Jian Ning was indeed struggling.
It's better to marry the old emperor directly, as Jian Ning said, in fact, the old prince's body is really healthy, he has been there a few times, and he has secretly sneaked into the palace, as long as there is no accident, this old emperor can continue to live a healthy life.
With Jian Ning's city, coupled with her yearning for power, as long as she can please the old emperor, she can deal with those who want to hurt her at any time, and step by step to sit in a high position, give birth to a son and become the crown prince, at this time, no matter whether the Queen Mother is satisfied with this result or not, she can only help Jian Ning achieve her goal from the side, because, without Jian Ning, the Queen Mother has no way to take over the country, and successfully attack Wumeng and the more powerful Daxing.
