Chapter Ninety-Nine: Journey to the Treasure Elephant Country (2)
The stupid hairy lion is such a scoundrel, Qi really can't do anything about him, he can't just do business, let's fight with him first, right? Qi Jing had no choice but to shake his head and smile, and he didn't bother to bother with the stupid lion anymore, so he recited a spell and turned into a little eunuch dressed like the old eunuchs, and appeared from the corner of the wall. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Qi turned into a little eunuch, and slowly walked over to the old eunuchs, and said hello: "Hello fathers-in-law!" As he spoke, he lifted his cuffs and let two of the sleepy bugs out.
The two old eunuchs who were recruited yawned in unison, muttering vaguely: "I got up early today, I dozed off, and I ...... rest" and then slept in the corner of the wall one after another.
The remaining old eunuch also felt very bored, so he beckoned Qi Jing to come over, and chatted with Qi Jing without a match: "Where is the little guy?" The eyes are very raw, and the master is with you? Where are you on an errand? ”
Qi actually pretended to be well-behaved, opened his eyes and replied nonsense: "I just entered the palace, I don't know anything, and I haven't been assigned any errands, so I just said that I will go around first and see if there is any movement here." I don't know if it's a fork in the road, so I walked to you, my father-in-law...... What kind of place is this? ”
Probably drowsiness is contagious, after the old eunuch opened his mouth and yawned, he was probably a little tired, and Qi Jing's defense was not much, so he followed Qi Jing's words and said: "Where is this?" This is a cold palace! The little guy probably hasn't been here before, has he? Also, Yongxiang is not a place that ordinary people are willing to come to. Now that the emperor and queen are older, their temper is getting better and better, and there are no new people in Yongxiang in the past three or five years, and there are still people there who remember this? ”
Qi Jing smiled and said, "Father-in-law, you have a really good memory!" It's really the first time I've heard of this Yongxiang, I heard you say it all the time, is this Yongxiang a place to take in the emperor who doesn't like those out-of-gas concubines? I'm still young, unlike your father-in-law, who has been in this palace for a long time, and I know everything, and I haven't encountered that good time......"
The old eunuch laughed and said, "How old are you little cub?" What rules can you understand in the deep palace? What good times can you meet? Besides, this Yongxiang, it is a cold palace that you can't get in and out, what good thing can it be? Ah, it's not all right to say this, there is still something to be done - wasn't the fourth princess who went to kiss last spring just invited out, and when she heard that she was dressed up, she sent Zhu Ziguo and her relatives to ......"
When Qi actually heard the old eunuch's last sentence, his heart jumped, he clearly remembered what Qin Lingyun said about Wen Yueying, the four princesses of a serious country who were very favored, if this was really a serious princess, would she have been living in the cold palace all the time?
Not only Qi Jing, but Qiao Ran, who was eavesdropping on the side, also felt that the background of the fourth princess in the mouth of the old eunuch and Wen Yueying in the eyes of others was really very different, Qiao Ran was not lazy, he got up with a bone, pinched the stealth and came close to listen.
Qi Jing made up his mind, only pretended not to notice that the stupid hairy lion also came to his side, and still smiled at the old eunuch obediently: "Father-in-law, you are right, I am really young!" I've only heard of the eldest princess, the second princess and the third princess, but I've never heard of such a fourth princess! My father-in-law should teach me and tell me carefully, so that I can hear it clearly and understand, so that I don't break taboos in the future! ”
The old eunuch guarding the door in Yongxiang, I haven't seen such a well-behaved little eunuch come to flatter him for a long time, and after only three or two clicks, he was comfortably smoothed by Qi Jing, and he couldn't help but have a little patience with Qi, and said with a smug smile: "Of course you don't know!" Speaking of which, this is all an old thing from more than ten years ago, and there are probably not many people who know the inside story like me at the beginning, but there are still not many people still in this palace. Little one, you're asking the right person today! ”
"What about these four princesses, to tell the truth, they are also poor people! Back then, her mother was an inconspicuous third-class little palace maid in the queen's palace, and she was not outstanding, and no one cared about her. But she met our emperor on a whim one day, took her back to the palace for a night, and secretly had these four princesses. As you probably know, our emperor is already sixty years old, and there are only three princesses under his knees - these three princesses are all from the queen, and there are three thousand beauties in the harem, but there is no news at all. At that time, the emperor was very happy when he learned that this little palace maid was pregnant, and he wanted to canonize her a name, but he was stopped by the queen's mother, and only said that now that the name is given, everyone in the palace is staring at her belly. It's not bad for a few months, and it's not too late to wait for her to give birth to a prince and then canonize her. ”
The emperor also felt justified when he heard it, so he followed the queen's wishes and did not mention the canonization again. As a result, this little palace maid is also unlucky, she survived for ten months, but she was born a little princess, and the emperor lacks a princess? After taking a look at the four princesses, the mother and daughter left. The queen mother saw that the emperor didn't care about the mother and daughter, so she naturally didn't bother to let them be an eyesore in front of her, so she found a name casually and sent their mother and daughter into this Yongxiang. ”
Qi was surprised when he heard it, and couldn't help but interject: "Father-in-law, what you always said is really something I have never heard of, it turns out that the life experience of these four princesses is also so tortuous!" It's just that I can't figure it out, since the emperor has no shortage of princesses, why did he find out these four princesses later and send them to him? ”
The old eunuch laughed and said, "Just say that you little guy is too young!" The twists and turns in it, you really can't understand it! It's good that the emperor doesn't lack princesses, but you forgot that seven or eight years ago, our three princesses, the third princess nicknamed Baihuashy, didn't they go out of the city gate to hunt and disappear? The eldest princess and the second princess recruited the concubine early, and the emperor has the heart to marry that Zhu Ziguo, choose a clan girl to make amends, or dig out a serious princess in the cold palace to make amends? It's good to talk about relatives, fame, and everything, isn't a serious princess much grander than a clan girl? Originally, this matter was not kind, even if the third princess was still there, the queen mother was reluctant to let her own daughter go to kiss, after all, she was leaving her home to go to the country, and the one who was the mother was willing to give up her own daughter! That is, other people's daughters don't have to feel pain! ”
Qi actually suddenly realized when he heard this, patted his thigh and said: "These four princesses turned out to be unlucky and pulled out of the top cylinder!" ”
