Chapter 12: Holy Water

Grandma Zhang was anxious, but she unintentionally changed the topic. Seeing that Ji Ming's face sank and his eyes were sad, Ji Yuluo twisted her sleeves, knelt down, and said sadly: "Father! When she went to Ewha Temple, Luo'er wanted to see the queen mother, but she ...... When I came back, I wanted to visit my mother and say goodbye. But the road was too far, and before he arrived, General Jiang arrived. ”

Xiao Gui was stunned, and the thief's bright eyes locked on Ji Yuluo. She didn't know that Ji Yuluo went out late at night to go to the cemetery.

"Get up!" Ji Ming's face was not good, he sighed, and stretched out his hand to help him in the void. In a blink of an eye, his eyes turned red, and he said sadly: "I only thought that I was afraid that you would touch the scene." Not thinking enough. Don't blame you! ”

Xiao Zhao helped Ji Yuluo up, but Ji Yuluo didn't dare to look at Ji Ming's painful face, his eyes saw that she was only pity and love. Since entering the palace, she has been avoiding Ji Ming's image in her mind.

She was afraid that face would accompany her through every day and night in the future.

Mrs. Xiahou has always been able to observe her face, and when she saw Ji Ming in pain, she also looked sad and wanted to shed tears, "This is the emperor's fault." When the princess returned, she had to comfort the dead first. ”

Ji Ming nodded, and said to the little eunuch Xiao Zi beside him: "Reward General Jiang with another thousand taels of gold and twenty boxes of pearls!" ”

Mrs. Xiahou pursed her lips, feeling that what she said just now made a wedding dress for someone else. In order to hide the unhappiness in her heart, she sipped tea shallowly. Don't let the displeasure come out.

Xiaozi bowed down and took the order. Ji Yuluo groaned slightly, and said to Mrs. Xiahou: "On the way to the cemetery, it was dark and I couldn't see the road clearly, and Luo'er almost fell on a big rock. Fortunately, Xiao Gui moved quickly and didn't fall. But it caused Xiao Gui to fall to the ground. His finger was also injured. ”

Xiao Gui stretched his neck forward. Xiao Zhao and Granny Zhang glanced at Xiao Gui together, and their hearts turned a few times. No squeaks.

Ji Ming said: "That little Gui protector has meritorious. You should also be rewarded! ”

Mrs. Xiahou, who was stunned for a while, was overjoyed, and immediately glanced at Xiao Gui eagerly.

Xiao Gui reacted and knelt down with a bang, "Thank you Emperor Longen!" ”

Ji Ming was waiting to be rewarded, Ji Yuluo pulled her skirt and knelt beside Xiao Gui, and pulled Xiao Gui's hand wrapped in gauze in her palm to hold it, her eyes were full of distress, and she said: "When Xiao Gui fell to the ground, he exclaimed 'madam' in his mouth." At that moment, Erchen was deeply shocked and deeply moved. I suddenly know what it means to have a deep relationship between master and servant. I also heard that Xiaogui and Mrs. Xiahou have a deep relationship. I couldn't sleep at night. Erchen thought twice, how dare he be selfish. I also asked my father to say that Xiao Gui has merit in protecting his sons, such as Xiao Gui's wish, and transfer Xiao Gui back to Ruhua Palace! ”

A twist. Madame Xiahou's face changed color. Standing up, a pair of eyes full of anger, "Princess! In this way, Xiao Gui is still wrong? ”

Mrs. Xiahou is not very good-tempered! Can't Ji Ming see it with such a strong color? I think it is also related to the strength of the Xiahou family. Ji Yuluo smiled euphemistically, and then kowtowed to Ji Ming and said, "Father! It is precisely because Xiao Gui is loyal and commendable that he is too good. Mrs. Xiahou regarded her sons as out. Therefore, Xiao Gui's return to Mrs. Xiahou can be regarded as a piece of filial piety from the sons to Mrs. Xiahou! ”

Mrs. Xiahou was stunned, frowned, and wordlessly refuted Ji Yuluo's words. Teasing Xiao Gui, he sat down and smiled reluctantly, "Xiao Gui!" This palace thinks you've actually done something wrong. ”

"Get up! All up! Ji Ming picked up Ji Yuluo, touched his chin and beard and said to Xiao Gui: "I will reward you with a thousand taels of silver." Return to the palace with the pearl in a while! ”

Xiao Guimian was reluctant, but he couldn't turn the situation around. I had to smile and thank you.

Sent Xiao Gui away, although he knew that after knowing the moonlit night, he would inevitably be questioned and even punished. It's better than having someone around you who is ready to snitch. Ji Yuluo was in a good mood.

"The princess is going to Lihua Temple this time......" Mrs. Xiahou took a sip of tea and asked without being salty or light. But it's half a sentence. According to her thoughts, Ji Yuluo stayed in Lihua Temple for a few days, and she should have asked for something.

Xiao Gui blessed Mrs. Xiahou, "The princess is here, in addition to praying for the blessings of the Heavenly Dynasty and Queen Chaolong, she also asked for a bottle of holy water for giving birth. ”

Ji Yuluo's heart fluttered, and she begged for a bottle of holy water, but the holy water was for Jiang Chumo's aunt, Jiang Linglong, and Mrs. Jiang.

"Oh!" Mrs. Xiahou sighed casually, and glanced at Ji Yuluo with unkind eyes.

Although Xiao Gui's incident has passed, it has obviously made Mrs. Xiahou unhappy, and Ji Yuluo doesn't want to make Mrs. Xiahou think about it anymore. Thinking that the holy water was just a bottle of gray paper water that she thought was useless according to her intentions, Xiao Zhao, who had been worried and afraid, flashed her eyes and walked to the dressing table, took a small white porcelain bottle and handed it to Mrs. Xiahou, leaned into her ear and whispered: "Madam! This is what Luo'er asked for in passing at Ewha Temple. Master Ruokong said, after taking this water, the wish of keeping it will come true. ”

"All wishes come true!" If you want to say that your heart is successful, it is better to give birth to a prince for Ji Ming. Mrs. Xiahou stared at Ji Yuluo in disbelief, her face full of surprise.

Ji Yuluo smiled slyly, her eyes shining downward, falling on Mrs. Xiahou's flat lower abdomen.

Mrs. Xiahou came back to it, her face bloomed with a smile, and she felt that she hadn't run in vain this night today, "Luo'er really has a heart!" ”

Soon, the palace people came to report that the bathing water had been poured into the bathing pool. Ji Ming saw his daughter and happily took Mrs. Xiahou away.

Xiao Zhao sent people back, and said dissatisfiedly: "Then Mrs. Xiahou's face can become really fast. The slave saw that if the emperor was not there, she would really eat the princess because of Xiao Gui's matter. ”

Ji Yuluo also understood in her heart, and said lightly: "Forget it after the matter is over." Stop it. ”

"Fortunately, a bottle of holy water sent her away." Granny Zhang said.

Ji Yuluo glanced at Granny Zhang, and the fire in her heart finally came out, "But that holy water is what I asked for Mrs. Jiang!" ”

took Xiao Zhao and Granny Zhang out of the door, and the palace people outside the palace gate still whispered about what happened just now. It's just that Mrs. Xiahou relied on the emperor's favor just now, and Queen Chaolong was not there, bullying the motherless princess.

Ji Yuluo listened quietly for a while, and then spoke up. They were immediately shocked, but Ji Yuluo had no intention of making trouble. It's just that they should quickly pack up and go to bed, and Ming'er will get up early.

The moonlight is like washing, and the deep corridor is dim and dim. The light emitted by the lantern in front of the skirt was weak and small in the night, and the face of Xiahou Mingzhu who wanted to ask about the crime just now appeared in front of her again, Ji Yuluo was a little worried, and said: "I heard that Mrs. Xiahou's five-year-old son fell into the water four years ago...... What's going on? ”

Xiao Zhao, who was carrying a lantern in front of him, said: "The slave entered the palace late, and I don't know very well. ”
