Chapter 118

Acacia was still a little apprehensive in the carriage, but when she arrived at the Ding'an Bo Mansion and changed into the clothes and jewelry of the audience, and then took the carriage all the way into the palace gate, the mood was miraculously smoothed down, even if the eunuch came to lead them into the palace, she did not show a trace of cowardice, but still had the heart to straighten out the dress.

He was still a little scared, but when he saw that Acacia was like this, he insisted on holding up the posture and took Acacia into the palace of the Queen Mother.

As soon as Acacia entered the palace gate, he smelled a fragrance of daffodils, which should have been mixed with some osmanthus spices, forming a very strange rich fragrance. This made Acacia a little surprised, there was an old lady in her family, and her grandmother was also an elderly, and their room was either sandalwood or fruity, all of which were relatively fresh and elegant.

But when I turn my head and think about it again, the emperor is not a few years older than himself, and the queen mother is also very young, so she should not be too old-fashioned.

"The courtiers (courtiers) greet the Queen Mother!"

As soon as he entered the door, no one saw him, so Acacia knelt behind He according to the eunuch's gesture, his eyes fixed on the jade bricks painted with gold.

However, there seemed to be no movement on it, and He didn't dare to move, and Acacia didn't dare to move. But as soon as this came out, it was clear that the Queen Mother must have deliberately wanted to embarrass them.

The longer she knelt, the more dull the aroma of the room became, Acacia secretly moved her knees, held her breath, and when she saw He, she began to tremble slightly.

"Mother said you can get up."

It seemed that he had lost his breath, and a palace maid said arrogantly.

Acacia endured the leg pain and got up and went over to help He Shi, and the two leaned on each other and stood on the top of the main hall.

"It's a good relationship."

A delicate voice floated from above, and there was no one else who could speak like this except the Queen Mother, and Acacia secretly sighed that the Queen Mother was no wonder she could collect the heart of the first emperor, even at this age, I am afraid that it is also full of charm.

"Give Mrs. Amber a seat." In a word, He has a seat, but Acacia still has to stand. Obviously, today's queen mother is here for lovesickness.

Acacia took advantage of the maneuver to move her legs and feet, and she didn't complain, she honestly stood behind He Shi and didn't dare to raise her eyes.

"Mrs. Ding'anbo is a blessing to arrive, she has two sons and two daughters, and there are no concubines at home...... Even the niece of her husband's family is so in love. The bead curtain in the hall was opened, and a woman dressed in a peony dress slowly came out, and the gold beads and jasper were rich and powerful.

Acacia was surprised by the young beauty of the Queen Mother, and there was a sense of déjà vu.

"The Queen Mother praised it falsely, but Sanniang's child has been raised by the courtiers since she came to Kyoto, and her daughter cannot be exaggerated, she is also well-behaved and sensible, which is very reassuring to the family." He quickly got up and replied.

"Speaking of which, the mourning family has only one son, and they have also looked forward to a daughter...... "The Queen Mother is obviously about to be forty, but she looks more like her early twenties, she came slowly with a strong fragrance, and her eyes have not left Acacia.

A chill rose from the acacia spine.

"The third girl of the Meng family...... Can you come over and let the mourning family take a look? The Queen Mother stopped and sat down opposite Acacia.

Lovesick was helpless, so he had to walk slowly and stand in front of the Queen Mother.

She thought that the Queen Mother was just looking at it casually, but she didn't expect the mother next to the Queen Mother to come over, pinching her chin and lifting it up hard, the pinched chin had obviously begun to swell and pain, and the always delicate skin also appeared red, Acacia endured the pain and lowered her eyes as much as possible not to look at the Queen Mother's face.

The Queen Mother stared at Acacia's face like this, and He secretly looked at it boldly, feeling sorry for the injustice of Acacia, and also boldly entangled the jealousy and contempt that flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes.

He didn't know what the Queen Mother would do, and he didn't dare to speak rashly, so he could only stand where he was and do it in a hurry.

Finally, the Queen Mother raised her hand, and the grandmother retracted her hand, and the jaw of Acacia was free.

"It's a good face, it's like this at a young age...... Unforgettable. ”

Acacia's heart beat violently involuntarily, she was very close to the Queen Mother, and the hatred that came out of her teeth was something she never thought of when she first came. It's just that she has stayed in the mansion honestly since she was reborn, and it is impossible for her to have such a deep hatred with the Queen Mother, so the only reason why the Queen Mother can bully her so disregarding her identity is because of that Princess Yang.

Acacia is bitter in his heart, even if he didn't live well in his previous life, he died too early, but compared to those in this life, they are like floating clouds. Even if her appearance in her previous life was not as good-looking as in this life, all she encountered was intrigue in the backyard, and even if she died, it was better than being caught in these political whirlpools.

The face similar to Princess Yang is probably the price of her rebirth.

"Okay, the mourning family likes you very much, you can stay in the palace to accompany the mourning family during this time." After speaking, he didn't wait for He to speak, so he took the hand of the palace maid and went to the palace.

He still wanted to say something, but Acacia quickly pulled her to her knees.

"The courtiers (courtiers) send off the Queen Mother."

When the two of them were sent out of the hall, He grabbed Acacia's hand and said, "You...... You can't stay in the palace. ”

Acacia looked at the palace people guarding beside him, and then shook He's hand and said: "The palace is very good, and the queen mother is also very kind, but it is to stay for a few days, so don't worry about it." ”

"How can I not be worried, I should have brought you back when I brought you in...... Otherwise, this whole day is ...... worried."

"Uncle! There is nothing to worry about in the palace. Acacia said vigorously in his hand.

He Shi saw her firm eyes, tears were about to fall again, she nodded tearfully and said: "Yes, you can see the world more in the palace, the Queen Mother is a charity, you can also get a good fate if you accompany her more, Uncle Niang will go back, go back......"

Acacia smiled and hugged He Shi and said, "I will miss my uncle." ”

"Okay, it's not too early, Mrs. Ding'anbo should go back first, and the three girls will stay in the palace and the slaves and maids will take care of them." The palace people beside the Queen Mother urged expressionlessly.

He wiped his tears, and followed the eunuch who greeted him step by step.

Acacia didn't breathe a long sigh of relief until He walked away.

"Since everyone is gone, the third girl should follow the slave to the apse." The palace people around the eunuch didn't care whether they were lovesick or not, they turned around and left.

Acacia hurriedly followed behind her, carrying her skirt and cautiously asked, "What is this aunt's surname?" This Cishou Palace is really big. ”

The palace people sneered and said disdainfully: "You can call Aunt Slave Xi in the future, don't go around during this time, just wait for the Queen Mother to summon you." ”

Acacia responded, lowered her head, it seems that the Queen Mother will not let her out of the palace for a while.

Turning around, Acacia didn't know how long he had been walking, but fortunately he used some pastries on the carriage when he came, otherwise he would have been paralyzed by hunger at this time, and Acacia saw that the original gorgeous and new palace had become a dilapidated and low narrow room, although it was still connected with the palace in front of it, only the broken tiles and broken pillars of the roof were really chilling.

"Alright, you'll live here." Aunt Xi pushed open the door of a room, and a gray smell wafted out, choking the two of them straight back, the room was pitch black, if the door was not opened, it seemed that there was no light inside.

Acacia looked at this small side hall, maybe it was the slave maid in the palace before, or the former concubine, but she couldn't ask more, and it was useless to ask more, so she simply said obediently: "Aunt Xi knows where the girl I brought is?" ”

"Don't worry, I won't eat her, wait for her to bring something over and clean up the house for you!" After Aunt Xi finished speaking, she didn't seem to want to stay longer.

But Acacia took out a piece of broken silver from his sleeve and put it in Aunt Xi's palm and said, "I'm afraid I'm going to bother my aunt these days." ”

Aunt Xi immediately smiled as soon as she weighed the piece of silver: "No wonder Mrs. Ding'an said that the girl is sensible and filial, which is really good, and in the future, the girl only needs to inform the slave maid if she has anything." ”

Acacia smiled unabated, and it was polite to send people away.

Waiting for Aunt Xi to go away, Acacia immediately entered the house and closed the door, she didn't care about the dusty table and the bed that couldn't see the color clearly, she just untied the placket and took out a heavy purse inside.

This purse was brought to her by the He family when they came out of the Ding'an Mansion, in addition to some silver tickets, and her grandmother also told her some names in the palace before leaving, which was to prevent the Queen Mother from leaving her in the palace.

"Girl! Open the door, girl! ”

Acacia heard the sound and quickly packed everything away, and then opened the door casually. Outside the door, Pomegranate took a eunuch and took a lot of things, which should have been taken from the Needlework Bureau and other places, and it must have taken a lot of trouble.

"Oh my God! How is it so broken! Pomegranate almost choked to death as soon as she entered the door, so she quickly put her things aside and began to clean.

The little eunuch who followed her kept his head down and stood aside to pack up the things that had been delivered.

"Girl, if you don't scrub and scrub, I'm afraid you won't be able to clean it, when the slave and maid came over, she asked if she knew where to get water, this little eunuch came to deliver something, let him put it down and leave." Pomegranate pulled out an empty bucket on the ground, and stared at the eunuch and told him to go out with him.

Acacia closed the door, but did not relax, but stood at the door until the sound of footsteps outside.

Pushing open the door, Acacia dragged the people outside in, then carefully closed the door, lowered his voice and said angrily: "Do you want to die, why did you run to the palace?" ”

The one who was dragged in was actually the little eunuch just now!

The little eunuch lifted his hat up, and his originally handsome appearance seemed to be covered with a layer of shallowness, so that all the advantages of his facial features were covered, but the breath on his body could not be forgotten.

"You...... How can you tell it's me? Mo Li took off his hat and asked a little shyly and excitedly.
