Chapter 20: Three Kneels and Nine Knocks

Xiao Chunzi, the eunuch who led the way, trembled and followed the side of the soft sedan chair, and had the heart to remind Lord Minghua and Mu Shizi that the queen mother and Concubine Hui were waiting in Yongshou Palace. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info but seeing Mu Chenyu taking the soft sedan chair and changing the route in the direction of Yanshou Palace, he wanted to cry without tears. Although the two palaces are not far apart and their names are similar, the gap is huge!

Yanshou Palace is the dormitory of the Empress Dowager Yun, since Emperor Long'an ascended the throne, adhering to the filial piety to his mother, and did not abolish the Empress Dowager Yun. Empress Dowager Yun also refused a group of palace concubines who went against her will, and hid in the palace to eat fasting and chant Buddha, not asking about world affairs. Except for the palace banquet that must be attended, it basically does not appear in front of people.

"Mu ...... Mu Shizi ......, "Thinking that Mu Chenyu was very gentle in the mouths of everyone, Xiao Chunzi mustered up the courage to stop Mu Chenyu's side.

Mu Chenyu raised his eyebrows gently, but his eyes were full of coldness: "Is there something wrong with the little father-in-law?" ”

"This ...... The queen and the concubine Hui ......"

"Empress Dowager Yun is still alive, you can not care about the palace rules, my fiancée has just returned from Lingnan, if she is criticized for this trip, can you afford it?" Mu Chenyu's voice was slightly cold.

Koharuko felt the oppression from the superior, her body trembled, and she took a step back to give way. Thinking that he didn't expect that Mu Shizi, who was so gentle on weekdays, also had such a sharp side, he could only secretly beckon and send someone to Yongshou Palace to report the news.

Mu Chenyu caught a glimpse of Xiao Chunzi's small movements, and didn't pay much attention to it, still taking the soft sedan chair to Yanshou Palace by himself.

At the gate of Yanshou Palace, Ling'er helped Situ Yunying to get off the soft sedan chair, and Rui Yue also stepped forward to take a hand after Situ Yunying got off the sedan chair.

Mu Chenyu knocked on the door of Yanshou Palace, and it was an old palace maid who opened the door.

"Aunt Qiuyue, please inform me, Youzhi and his fiancée Situ Yunzhi visited his grandmother." Mu Chenyu respectfully saluted the old palace maid.

Qiu Yue glanced at Situ Yunying, who looked weak, and dropped the sentence: "Wait!" Then he closed the palace door and went to report.

"Ahem, cough, cough ......" A gust of cold wind blew, and Situ Yunying couldn't help coughing twice.

"County Lord, but it's cold?" As she spoke, Ling'er was about to take off the short blue cloak on her body and drape it on Situ Yunying.

I didn't want to, but I was quickly stopped by Rui Yueyan, and whispered: "There are a lot of rules in the palace, and the county lord is delicate, how can you wear the clothes of a servant?" ”

"But it's choking on the wind, it's fine." Situ Yunying saw Ling'er's look of annoyance, and knew that this girl must be complaining that she didn't have much heart, so she comforted her softly. What Ling'er has done today is already excellent, don't force too much.

"County Lord, I'll definitely remember to bring you an extra cloak next time!" Ling'er lowered her voice and reassured.

Situ Yunying burst into tears for a while when she heard this, this girl was pure-hearted, just because she had saved her, she was desperate for her. The suspicious nature of the royal children is buried in the bones, and at first Ling'er was just a little girl who approached her purposefully and innocently wanted to find an unknown enemy through her. She didn't take this little girl seriously, but just drove her brother and sister back to the village to live a good life.

No, this girl asked her brother to go back to the village to help the villagers rebuild their homes, but she looked for her alone in the direction she left. If it weren't for the fact that her subordinates had heard that someone had painted a portrait of her in men's clothing, she wouldn't have known what year and month that stubborn little girl would have been found.

By the time Situ Yunying saw Ling'er, it was already three months later. She didn't recognize Ling'er dressed as a beggar at all, and she remembered it when Ling'er herself talked about the Wangjiacun tragedy. She was glad more than once that she didn't go far because she had something to deal with, otherwise she would not have a fixed place to live, and she would not be able to find Ling'er's feet even if she was afraid of breaking.

When Situ Yunying was moving, there was a sudden warmth on his back. Looking back, it was Mu Chenyu's big draped over his shoulders.

"Thank you, cousin." Situ Yunying lowered his eyes and thanked him.

Mu Chenyu stared at Situ Yunying's pale and bloodless face with bright eyes, his thick eyebrows frowned, and he asked in a low voice the question he had always wanted to ask: "Have you taken the burning heart?" ”

Situ Yunying nodded silently.

"You're crazy...... Just for revenge? Mu Chenyu knew that Situ Yunying had a strong temperament since he was a child, and he didn't want to take poison himself for revenge.

The burning heart is the poison in the princess Yi back then, and those who are poisoned by this poison seem to be roasted on the fire every moment. If Situ Yunying wants to achieve the symptoms of fetal poisoning like Situ Yunzhi, he must let the toxin remain dormant in his body. Not to mention how much medicine to take every day to inhibit the spread of toxins, but the scorching at this moment is not something that ordinary people can bear.

Situ Yunying suppressed the tears of grievance that were surging up, turned his head, and did not answer Mu Chenyu's question. Her once happy home was destroyed, her parents died tragically, and tens of thousands of unjust souls have not been revealed, how can she not hate.

When Mu Chenyu came over, Rui Yue had already retreated to the side to wait, and Ling'er also retreated to Rui Yue's side when Mu Chenyu put on a big shackle for Situ Yunying, so the two knew that the two were talking, but they didn't hear what was said.

With a "squeak", the palace door was opened, breaking the condensed atmosphere between Mu Chenyu and Situ Yunying.

"The Queen Mother has ordered, if the Lord of Yunzhi wants to see her, he will perform the big ceremony of kneeling three times and bowing nine times, and he can only walk to the feet of the Queen Mother." Qiu Yue looked at Situ Yunzhi expressionlessly and said. Such an impudent request not only startled the people who came to inquire about the news secretly, but even Situ Yunying and Mu Chenyu were stunned for a moment.

"What? The county lord is unwilling? If you don't want to, please go back! Qiu Yue's face did not change in the slightest, she did not grovel, nor was she arrogant, she just spoke calmly.

"Aunt Qiuyue, Minghua ......"

"Shizi, the Queen Mother said that if you want to see her, you will kneel three times and bow nine times, and if you can't do it, please go back. It's been seven years since the Queen Mother didn't see the rules of the living, and who else in this palace didn't know? Qiu Yue cut off Mu Chenyu's words.

"Since it is the order of the Queen Mother, Yunzhi will definitely obey the order." As he spoke, Situ Yunying took off Mu Chenyu's big and handed it back to him to reduce his own weight.

"County Lord......" Ling'er thought that her county lord was not as good as before, and wanted to stop it.

"Forgot what I told you? Follow Rui Yue. Situ Yunying pushed away the hand that Ling'er came over to support, and said coldly.

"Yes!" Ling'er stepped back and answered.

Situ Yunying immediately knelt down and knocked three songs, got up and knelt down to knock three times, and then got up and knelt down and knocked three more songs. After some movements, the person was already out of breath.

pushed away Ling'er, who ran over, took off the fox fur cloak on her body and handed it to Ling'er, and then walked three steps and continued her movements.
