Chapter 6: Temporarily Outside the Palace
"What do you mean, Your Majesty?" Guo Gonggong was not sure of Xiao Qianyu's true intentions for a while. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"The affairs of the harem, of course, are left to the master of the harem to worry about." Xiao Qianyu didn't raise his head, and his attention was all on the fold in front of him.
"Yes!" Guo Gong Guild will. The emperor's meaning is to let Queen Huang Yining call the shots. It seems that this Miss Su Qiaotong Su is destined to be neglected.
Sure enough, when Huang Yining heard this, he snorted lightly and said lightly: "It's just a proton, do you want this palace to pick her up in person?" ”
Min Feng reminded on the side: "Queen Mother, this Su Qiaotong, although she is a proton, but her father Su Guogong is now working for the imperial court, if she is neglected, I am afraid that there will be a gap between Su Guogong and the emperor." ”
Huang Yining didn't speak, only waved his hand slightly, signaling that Min Feng didn't need to say more.
Min Feng had no choice but to shut up and retreat to the side, waiting for orders. However, I couldn't help muttering in my heart: What's wrong with the queen now? It wasn't like this before, and the words of the slave and maid, although they weren't ingenious, were not unreasonable. If she was according to her previous temperament, she would also nod her head in approval.
"What? Have an idea? Just thinking about it, Huang Yining's voice suddenly sounded next to him. Min Feng shrank his shoulders in fright, quickly stopped his nonsense, and hurriedly replied, "The slave doesn't dare." ”
"It's okay if you don't dare, then Su Qiaotong, this time in Beijing, she has never treated herself as a proton. If this palace is degraded this time, go and greet her in person. I'm afraid she doesn't care about the entire harem even more. Huang Yining said coldly.
"The lesson of the mother is that the slave maid is shallow-eyed and thinks simply." Min Feng replied obediently.
Huang Yining groaned: "Then Su Qiaotong, who came from far away from the west, trekked along the road, was contaminated with the wind and frost all the way, and suddenly entered the palace, maybe he will bring some miscellaneous diseases into the palace." ”
Min Feng's heart jumped, and he tentatively said in disbelief: "Niangniang, what do you mean?" ”
"Let her rest in the inn outside the palace for more than a month, and when she is lightweight, it will not be too late to enter the palace." Huang Yining said.
“......”
Min Feng didn't know how to react for a while. Let Su Qiaotong rest in the inn outside the palace first? This...... How to make it? The emperor's golden mouth has been opened, let Su Qiaotong enter the palace, and come to the gate of the palace, isn't the queen mother coming out of this place to openly disobey the holy order?
Min Feng felt that he couldn't sit idly by, the queen mother didn't know what was going on recently, and her behavior was very different from usual, but as a slave, she should do her duty, and she couldn't watch her master get into danger, but she didn't dissuade her.
"Queen Mother, you can't help it! Let Miss Su Qiaotong enter the palace, which the emperor has already granted. Now, if you suddenly let her stay outside the palace, don't enter the palace immediately. If you let someone with ulterior motives report it to the emperor. I'm afraid it's not good for you, the queen! Min Feng's voice trembled a little, and when he said this, he was extremely emotional.
Huang Yining glanced at her and smiled slightly: "This palace did not disobey the holy order, but just let her stay for a while, which is also for the emperor's health." How can you give people the truth? ”
Min Feng was silent, she understood that the queen had made up her mind, and it was useless to say more.
The queen's meaning was passed on: Su Qiaotong traveled thousands of miles, people were sleepy and tired, and she needed to temporarily live outside the palace, recuperate, and then enter the palace after she was full of energy.
Yi Zhi went down, but Huang Yining's heart began to go up and down. She remembered that when she entered the palace in her previous life, the queen went out of the palace to welcome her. And at that time, when I was young, I was a little fluttering when I received such courtesy, I didn't know how thick the sky was, and I felt in my heart that the entire harem was the most beautiful for me. Later, he competed for favor, and he was unscrupulous and too public, which caused the queen to have murderous intent towards herself.
Huang Yining thought to himself, since everything starts from entering the palace, then this time, let it be cut off from here. She won't greet that Su Qiaotong in person, and it is impossible to give her a chance to compete for favor in the harem.
After Su Qiaotong received Yi's order, she had no objection.
But the people around her felt that there must be something strange about this matter.
The personal maid hurriedly offered a plan: "Miss, according to the slave maid, this is not what the emperor meant. It should be the meaning of the queen mother. ”
Su Qiaotong glanced at her: "This is a decree, not a holy decree, of course it is the queen's meaning." ”
"Then it means, Queen Mother, I am afraid of you."
"What are you afraid of me? She hadn't seen me. Su Qiaotong asked a little funny.
"Oh, miss. Why are you so confused! "That maid is a little too big or small.
After being glared back by Su Qiaotong, the maid immediately became honest, and said with a smile: "The slave should die, please forgive the young lady." The slave maid means that the queen mother has too many eyeliner in the entire capital. Perhaps, we haven't entered Beijing yet, and when we are still halfway there, someone has already sent your portrait of Miss into the palace with a thousand miles of horses and handed it over to the queen's mother. ”
This is possible, Su Qiaotong couldn't help muttering a little in her heart, but immediately, she shook her head and said: "There are countless beauties in the harem, even if the queen really sees my portrait, what if the queen?" Could it be that my appearance can be beautiful? ”
Although he said it modestly, Su Qiaotong's heart really felt so.
"No, it's not." This maid is too eyeless, as soon as she finished speaking, she received an eye knife from Su Qiaotong flying over, and hurriedly changed her words, "No, no, no, the slave maid means that of course you are a beautiful lady." Even if...... I mean, even if there are only a few people in the palace, who are even more beautiful than Miss, it won't stop you from being young. Tender and fresh, people are always greedy for fresh things. The slave maid felt that the queen was afraid that the emperor would be attracted by your freshness, so she didn't let you enter the palace immediately. ”
After the maid finished speaking, she found that Su Qiaotong was glaring at her resentfully, so frightened that she hurriedly shut up and didn't dare to say anything more.
"What do you mean by tender and fresh, you are Miss Ben is a radish?" Su Qiaotong said angrily.
"Slaves deserve to die, slaves deserve to die." The maid hurriedly begged for mercy.
However, Su Qiaotong did not continue to investigate, she thought carefully about the maid's words, nodded and said: "No matter what the queen's purpose is, one thing is certain, that is, she doesn't want the emperor to see me immediately." ”
"So, we can't sit still." The maid said hurriedly.
"What's your plan?" Su Qiaotong asked curiously.
The maid hurriedly attached Su Qiaotong's ears and whispered a few whispers. Su Qiaotong nodded while listening, and then pursed her lips and smiled: "I didn't expect that you girl still has a ghost idea." ”
As soon as the two finished speaking, Fang Maozhu, the deputy general who escorted Su Qiaotong, asked to see him at the door.
"What's wrong?" Su Qiaotong saw that his expression was different, and hurriedly asked.
"Outside the inn where we are temporarily staying, there are suddenly more people, and the last general just went to inquire, and they said that they were sent from the palace to protect you, Miss." After Fang Maozhu finished speaking, he looked at Su Qiaotong inquiringly, it was obvious that now, he regarded Su Qiaotong as his general.
"Men sent from the palace?" Su Qiaotong repeated suspiciously, "Is it a father-in-law or a guard?" ”
"The guards are dressed up, not father-in-law."
"It seems that the person sent by the queen just doesn't know whether the person who came is good or not." Su Qiaotong groaned.
Fang Maozhu obviously couldn't answer this question, he could only guess: "It should be here to protect Miss you, when I went to ask these people just now, their attitude was quite kind, not like they wanted to embarrass us." ”
Su Qiaotong stood up, looked directly at Fang Maozhu with both eyes, and asked slowly, "Deputy General Fang should have noticed something, right?" ”
As soon as Fang Maozhu heard this, he took two steps back unnaturally, as if he realized his gaffe, and hurriedly took two steps forward.
Su Qiaotong looked at his reaction coldly, and said in a deep voice: "Vice General Fang, what have you discovered, although it is so." Although I am a daughter, I am not the kind of delicate woman who only cries when she encounters trouble. ”
Fang Maozhu said in embarrassment: "This ...... This is just the general's speculation, please Miss Su, don't take it too seriously. ”
Su Qiaotong didn't answer his question directly, her eyes only looked at him fixedly.
According to the last general's intuition, these people are not good, although they are kind on the surface, but their smiles do not reach the bottom of their eyes, and there is a faint murderous aura. The last general speculated that if he violated their taboo, he would be ......"
Fang Maozhu didn't say the latter words, and Su Qiaotong also understood what it meant. To put it simply, if you don't obey, you will be killed.
"I see." Su Qiaotong nodded, "It's just that it's not clear now, what are the taboos of these people." ”
Fang Maozhu also shook his head: "This is the reason why I am looking for Miss Su in the future, presumably, Miss, you can know what the purpose of these people is." ”
The maid beside her said in a trembling voice: "Miss, the queen mother, she doesn't want to kill people, right?" ”
In a word, Fang Maozhu and Su Qiaotong's eyes invariably fell on her. Su Qiaotong's eyes narrowed dangerously.
Seeing the eyes of the two of them, shooting at herself like sharp knives, the maid was so frightened that she hurriedly changed her words: "This ...... It's just slave nonsense, it must not be like this, it must not be like this. ”
Su Qiaotong shook her head slowly: "No, that's the case." I just arrived in the capital, and I am not familiar with life, who will spend all this thought on me? Who else but the Queen? ”
Fang Maozhu was stunned: "Queen Mother, why did she do this?" ”
"The reason is very simple, I don't want the emperor to see me."
Su Qiaotong's eyes were cold and shining. Queen, you're too wary, aren't you? I've just arrived in the capital, and I haven't even stepped into the harem, so you want to be ruthless?
