Chapter 84: The Concubine of the Deep Palace

After Yu Heng finished speaking, he got up and went out, hesitated outside the door a few times, and then relentlessly walked towards the back door of the outer courtyard. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

After the man's shadow guard slapped her three times, she floated over, and Yu Heng said, "You go and tell him, I agreed to his conditions." ”

The shadow guard took the order, and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Yu Heng stood in the dark corner of the door for a long time, and for her, the matter was settled, compared to the anxiety during the period when things needed to be decided, it was actually calmed down little by little.

The dust settled? I don't know if her decision this time is good or bad. The days to come will be right or wrong.

But after all, I settled down, and in the second half of my life, I could probably do what I wanted.

This is the first day of the new year to go to the Ministry of Rites, Shen Jinyu felt particularly uncomfortable because she didn't rest well last night.

Finally waiting until she could go home to rest, Shen Jinyu felt that the bones in her body were about to fall apart.

But in such a tiring time, someone from the palace invited her to the harem.

Shen Jinyu didn't dare to slack off, the fatigue all over her body was swept away, since she was assigned to the Ministry of Rites, she had nothing to do with the palace, and she was not half sure whether she entered the palace this time was good or bad, so she could only block it.

Could it be Cheng Wan? After all, she had just broken into Cheng's Mansion at night.

Or Yongjia? But what is the purpose of looking for her, after Shen Zheng returned to the princess's mansion, she was no longer useful.

When she was thinking about it in her heart, she had already entered the palace, but she was taken into a palace that she had never seen before.

Invited into the palace by the palace maid, the interior decoration is not too much, but the things look rich, the color is not very bright, sitting on the couch, is a middle-aged lady with a face is reading, in this kind of palace, the hair ornaments are silver and black onyx, the elderly lady in the palace, and use such a plain, in addition to the concubine, who else can there be?

Shen Jinyu steadied herself, knelt down and said after asking for peace: "I have admired the fame of Concubine Cui for a long time, and it is a great honor to meet you today." ”

Concubine Cui put down the scroll in her hand and said with a smile: "Lord Shen is really clever, let's listen to how Shen Ji mentioned the mourning family to you." ”

Shen Jinyu was about to say something, but Concubine Cui stopped again: "That's it, it's Qinghe Ercui's set again, after listening to it for so many years, there is nothing new." ”

Shen Jinyu stood in front of Concubine Cui with her hands down, saw her beckoning gently, and ordered her to sit on the small stool in front of the collapse.

As a minister, Shen Jinyu hesitated for a moment and said: "Thank you for the love of the concubine, the status of a micro-minister, I am afraid that there will be a lot of inconvenience." ”

The grandmother beside Concubine Cui stepped forward and smiled: "Lord Shen, this is too much to worry about, the law is nothing more than human affection, that is, you are an official in the court, and you are also the granddaughter of our concubine." I can't write two Cui characters with this pen. ”

After speaking, he pulled her arm and pressed it to the front of the collapse, Shen Jinyu did not refuse, raised her head and thanked her, only then raised her head slightly, and glanced at Concubine Cui, who was staring at her, and couldn't dodge for a while, so she simply looked at each other generously.

Concubine Cui is old, there are some small wrinkles around her eyes, her eyes are dark and deep, she is not shocked, she looks smiling, but her eyes seem to be looking at it, just an object, a book, no feelings.

Concubine Cui said: "Yesterday, Shen Huaijin handed a letter to the palace by the hand of the eldest princess, but you know, the palace has been standing for decades, even after the emperor left, he can keep this palace, relying on impartiality, ignoring political affairs, and not as good as military affairs." So you brother, you have to see clearly, don't be taken advantage of, go the wrong way. ”

Shen Jinyu lowered his head and said: "What the concubine taught me is that it's just that Weichen has less time to see him, and I don't know if I can pass this on to him." ”

Concubine Cui took her hand and said softly: "What you said, this palace naturally knows, he is in the army, and he has been under the banner of the eldest princess for a long time." You have asked to see him several times, but he has turned him away, and for us we can't write two Cui characters, but for you, we can't write two Shen characters with one stroke. It doesn't necessarily have to be prosperous, but when it is lost, it is different. ”

This is very inconsistent, Shen Jinyu naturally knows that Concubine Cui has something to say, she is not as good as military affairs, but she knows that Huai Jin has been in the army for a long time? Do you know that she went to see her several times and was denied?

She immediately lowered her head and showed a slightly coquettish smile, narrowed the distance, and replied, "Courtier, thank you for the guidance of the concubine." ”

Concubine Cui nodded with satisfaction, then she took a little heat, squeezed Shen Jinyu's hand and said, "You have grown so big, Cui Jin has been gone for so many years." That jade pendant of yours is still there, right? ”

Shen Jinyu said in a low voice: "It's still there, but today, I didn't bring it out." Then he raised his head and said with tears in his eyes: "If my grandmother is still here, she should be very happy to see me have such an opportunity to be close to you." ”

Concubine Cui let out a long sigh, touched Shen Jinyu's hair to show her closeness, and didn't say anything more.

When Shen Jinyu was asked to leave by the palace maid, she caught a glimpse of a faint sight out of the corner of her eye, and saw a group of people walking in on another path, which was not very clear.

Walking outside the palace, it was already dark, and the carriage of Chengfu outside the door was waiting outside without accident, originally planning to go home, but halfway through, Shen Jinyu suddenly changed his mind and went to Pingkangfang.

It won't be a summons for no reason, there's always a trail to follow.

As a result, Sang Tian was not there, and only Jiang Yao was seen.

Jiang Yao took the pen and was reading the account book, Su Qing was grinding the ink in a regular manner beside him, and when he saw Shen Jinyu coming, Jiang Yao put down the pen in his hand, got up and walked forward quickly to take Shen Jinyu's hand and said, "Why did you come at this time?" ”

Turning to Su Qing, he instructed: "Let the small kitchen prepare something for Miss Shen to eat, oh, use the chicken soup I left for Sang Ye to make some noodles, and then get some side dishes, and the dessert will not be used for now." I'll wait and have some red bean soup with her. ”

Shen Jinyu sat on the couch with her, took a sip of the red date longan tea handed over by Su Qing, put a cushion on the pillow, and exhaled: "It's still your sweetness, I'm hungry." ”

Jiang Yao asked, "Are you in a hurry when you come over now?" ”

Shen Jinyu glanced at the account book that Jiang Yao was checking when she entered the door, it was not like the cost of the inner house, thinking that Sang Tian should have handed over the entire Pingkang Fang beans to her, so she said directly: "I was called by Concubine Cui today, some things can't be figured out, come here to take a look." ”

Jiang Yao nodded knowingly and said, "In this way, you have dinner first, and then let's go and see it together." ”

After the meal, Jiang Yao took out the key she had with her, took Shen Jinyu down the secret passage, bypassed the many mechanisms, entered the secret room, and found the file of Concubine Cui.

The file is thin, Sang Tian said that they have limited manpower in the palace, and the news is not too exact, roughly, only when she will enter the palace and when she will be favored, and the rest will be blank.
