Chapter 162: Concubine Zhen's Old Man

After dinner, the old lady talked to Jinyu, and then fell asleep under Bixiao's service, Jinyu took the brocade handkerchief handed by the maid and wiped it on the side of her mouth a few times, and then put down the chopsticks.

"Princess, Madame Wang, please go." A girl came in from outside the door, and Jinyu remembered that it seemed to be someone next to Mrs. Wang, so she got up and said, "I'll go now." ”

Zhangfu has just experienced a turmoil, so it is not the style of the past, the slaves and maids are also walking quickly, no longer the leisurely and comfortable of the past, the green finch in front of him is holding a lantern, it is already late winter at this time, this hour, the sky is already dark, the slightest cool breeze blows, Jinyu is a little cold, so he sped up the pace.

When I arrived at Wang's house, there was a silver carbon burning in the house, and the slightest warmth poured in, Jinyu suddenly felt that her body was gradually warming, Wang was wearing a warm yellow placket jacket, and she was wearing an emerald green Eight Treasures around her neck, Jinyu was a little surprised, and Mrs. Wang smiled and said, "I just came back from outside." ”

"I know that Jinyu has been to the Marquis Mansion of Jinyang before, but it is not as aggressive as before, I thank you on behalf of Jinyu."

"That's what juniors should do." Jinyu said, Mrs. Wang smiled, and ordered the girl under her hand to take out a box, only to see that the box was extremely exquisite, Mrs. Wang gently opened the box, but saw a huge orb.

"Bi Hezhu?" Jinyu said that she still remembered that this bead was given to the ancestor by Xie Baoyu back then, why it was in the hands of Mrs. Wang at this time.

"This is the meaning of the ancestors, you are weak and pregnant, this thing is good for your body, and it is also a piece of the old man's heart, you can accept it." Jinyu took the warm and moist bead, thanked Mrs. Wang, said a few more greetings, and then got up and left.

Jinyu wanted to hurry back to the palace, but today she was indeed a little tired. So he quickened his pace, but he didn't expect to meet Xue on the road, Xue saw Jinyu and took Jinyu's hand and said, "I can be regarded as finding the princess." ”

"What is Auntie looking for me?" Jinyu was a little impatient. Xue also seemed to see that Jinyu was a little absent-minded, but still said: "The princess also knows that after her father-in-law stepped down, your unsuccessful second uncle was also idle at home at this time, and recently I heard that there is a position in the ministry. I heard that King Cheng had a lot of friendships in the household department, so I hoped that the princess could help from it.

"Auntie, don't worry, I will naturally write to the prince about this matter." Xue Shi's face turned pale when he heard this, you must know that the letter from Dijing to Changzhou will take half a month to arrive at the earliest.

"This, it's urgent, I'm afraid."

"The prince has always refused to let me interfere in political affairs, and at this time, my brother and father are not in Beijing, and I really have no other way."

Xue couldn't say anything at this time, so he had to ask Jinyu and left. Qingque on the side said with some disdain: "This aunt of the princess is really true, the old lady entrusted you with errands and gave gifts, this person is like relying on a mouth, like asking people to help." ”

Jinyu smiled and didn't speak, just looked at the green finch's hair fluttering in the wind.

"Let's go."

After returning to the palace, Jinyu took a hot bath and fell asleep under the service of the green sparrow, at which point the green finch wanted to go and close the window. But I found that there were fine white snowflakes floating in the dark night sky, swirling with the icy cold wind.

A figure suddenly flashed in the dark night sky, and the blue finch saw the figure. With a shocked face, he asked softly, "But what did the prince say?" ”

"The prince said, let you protect the princess, I'm afraid there will be a big move in the queen of Beijing recently."

"Got it, you go quickly, the princess is already asleep." The man in black glanced at Qingque meaningfully. Then fly away, I'm afraid that this will be a day and night journey, thousands of miles.

The green finch closed the window and ordered the girl on the night watch to come in.

After a dreamless night, after Jinyu got up, she found that it was white outside the window, and said a little tiredly: "It's snowing again at this time?" Qingque put on a cloak for Jinyu and said, "Last night." ”

Jinyu walked to the window and looked at the goose feathers and snow outside.

"Today, I will stay in this room and not go out, Jinyu holds a book, nests on the small step, Qingque brought breakfast, a bowl of rice porridge, a small plate of roasted wheat, a few plates of side dishes, and even a plate of green vegetables, this season of green vegetables can be regarded as rare, Jinyu inevitably ate a few more bites, Qingque said: "This is brought from the south by the prince, knowing that the young lady is definitely not used to it in the north." Jinyu smiled.

After Jinyu finished eating, Qingque brought a few plates of southern pastries, saying that it was made by Mrs. Jinghui, and Jinyu ate a piece and felt that it was very delicious, so she said: "Qingque, you go, Mrs. Jinghui invites you." Qingque answered yes, and went outside the house, a moment later, Jinghui Shitai came in wearing a plain green clothes, Jinyu once again carefully looked at the face of this teacher, Jinyu only felt that this teacher must not be simple in her previous life, and then heard her say that she was a palace maid who had served the nobles in the palace, and made a mistake, so she was kicked out.

But Jinyu looked at Shitai's eyes as clear and clear as an ancient well, and suddenly felt that there must be something hidden under this ordinary face.

"Where was Mrs. Shi from before she became a monk?" Jinyu asked, and Mrs. Jinghui sat aside and said with a slight smile: "The poor nun used to be a palace maid, but she was dismissed from the palace because of the death of the nobleman she served, and she had nowhere to become a nun. ”

As Jinyu had heard in the previous life, Jinyu asked again, "I don't know who the noble person is?" ”

"Concubine Zhen, the poor nun was the palace maid who served Concubine Zhen before."

"I see."

"I wondered how anyone could help a lonely nun like me, but now I know that it is the princess, and the princess is really benevolent."

"The teacher is too strict, since you are an old person by the side of the concubine, I will naturally treat you well."

After talking for a while, Jinghui said that she wanted to go home to the temple to copy the Buddhist scriptures, and Jinyu let her leave.

"Did the princess know that this master was an old person next to Niangniang?" Qingque asked.

"I just know a little bit and I'm not sure." Jinyu naturally didn't know what this had to do with that concubine, but she couldn't say it at this time, so she had to say it perfunctorily.

"That master lady looks really extraordinary, a hand of southern snacks made superbly, it is said that Concubine Zhen is also a southerner, and also made a hand of extremely delicious southern snacks.

Jinyu listened to these words with some absent-mindedness.

"Does the prince like to eat these?" Jinyu asked, Qingque lowered her head a little gloomily and said, "I heard the old man who served the prince say that since the mother left, the prince has never eaten these things again. ”

The atmosphere was a little silent, Jinyu couldn't help but think that after her mother's death, she didn't like to eat Japanese fruits very much, Jinyu can probably understand Zhao Ke's mood, love is always a difficult thing to control, she can not cry, not be discovered, but really can't not be uncomfortable.
