Chapter 148: All Things (2)
Meng Jinghan followed, Zhuang Minhua stomped his feet, "Why are you so frivolous, go out quickly, I want to change my clothes." Her cheeks were pink, her eyes were swimming, and she just didn't look at Meng Jinghan's eyes.
Qian Hong Biqing held her clothes and lowered her head and pursed her lips and smiled secretly, but Zhuang Minhua found out and glanced at them, and the two of them immediately took it seriously, as if it was not them who was laughing just now.
Meng Jinghan had a deep smile in his eyes, but he didn't want to tease her in front of the palace maid, so he only said: "I'll tell you, I'm going back to Hanzhang Hall to deal with government affairs, and we'll have dinner together in the evening." ”
Zhuang Minhua only had time to reply, "I don't know what to go back to at night." I saw Meng Jinghan's back disappearing at the door.
"How did this person become so narrow-minded?" Zhuang Minhua muttered, holding his hot face, and smacked Meng Jinghan in his heart. She changed into a blue dark pattern gown, a moire six-piece moon skirt, combed a lily bun, and wore a set of jade heads. Now she goes to Ci'an Palace to dress up relatively plainly, so as not to be provoked by the empress dowager who is in a bad mood.
That's right, after she and the current Queen Mother served the Queen Mother in the first month, she was sprayed in the face by the Queen Mother. When she was out of the dress, she accidentally dressed a little brightly, and was sprayed by the Queen Mother again. Fortunately, this time for the sake of her face as a queen, she was not allowed to kneel.
After packing up everything, Zhuang Minhua took people out of the palace gate, got into the chariot, and went to Ci'an Palace.
It was still drizzling, and the palace people who followed the car were all wearing robes, and only the four palace maids on both sides were holding umbrellas. Along the way, spring is full of life, and it is full of life in the drizzle. Strange flowers and plants bloom all over the roadside. The breeze brings a fresh fragrance.
The chariot stopped at the gate of Ci'an Palace, and the palace people had already opened the curtain of the car, and Qian Hong and Emerald Green stretched out their hands to help her at the same time, Zhuang Minhua smiled slightly, took the hands of the two, and stepped on the stool to get out of the car. Bi Qing struggled to retract the arm that had been stretched out halfway, only to feel a hot pain on her face. Her eyes were lowered, and the corners of her mouth were pursed into a straight line.
Zhuang Minhua didn't notice the strange appearance of Biqing behind her, and took everyone into Cining Palace, and Gonggong Qiu had already waited at the door with a smile. Seeing Zhuang Minhua come up and salute, he said, "The slave has seen the queen's mother." ”
Zhuang Minhua raised his hand. "Excuse me!" The footsteps kept passing by Grandpa Qiu. He also asked, "Is the Empress Dowager willing to eat?" ”
Father-in-law Qiu turned around and followed, and replied: "No, but the Youth League sent by Niangniang." The Empress Dowager used four. The youth group is small and delicate. The color is green and beautiful. It smells good, too. The Empress Dowager had a little appetite when she saw it, and she couldn't stop eating the first one until she used four. We persuaded the Queen Mother to stop chopsticks. I heard the girl who came to send the Youth League say that the Youth League was made of glutinous rice, and we were afraid that the Queen Mother would use too much food, so we didn't dare to let her old people use too much. ”
"You did the right thing, the old man had a bad appetite, and if he ate too much glutinous rice in one go, he couldn't restrain it."
"Yes, and then we persuaded the Queen Mother to use a cup of Roselle Sydney pear and red date juice that Niangniang taught us, and the Queen Mother also used half a cup." Father-in-law Qiu had a sincere smile on his face, the Empress Dowager is fine, and they will be fine, so he is very grateful to the Empress Dowager.
Zhuang Minhua thought thoughtfully, "The Queen Mother has a cough, right?" It's good to drink a cup of this, and it can also strengthen the spleen and stomach. ”
"Yes, that's what we thought."
The two talked all the way into the main hall, and when they entered the main hall, Gonggong Qiu retreated to the back. The Empress Dowager sat on the upper seat, looking a little sad, but it was better than what she had seen a few days ago. He wears a thick jacket embroidered with pine cranes in vermilion, and holds a pumpkin-shaped enamel handstove depicting clear spring and flowing water. It makes people feel hot when they look at it.
Zhuang Minhua respectfully saluted the Empress Dowager below, and the Empress Dowager glanced at her lazily and said lightly: "You are here!" Get up! ”
Zhuang Minhua thanked the Empress Dowager and sat down. Since she presented hundreds of recipes, the Queen Mother looked at the face of these recipes and looked at her face a little better. Unlike the Empress Dowager Rong, after saluting, the Empress Dowager would shout for a long time. They all sat in the position of the queen mother, and there was still an ancestor on their heads. Zhuang Minhua privately felt that Empress Dowager Rong must feel aggrieved, but she couldn't see it on her face.
Zhuang Minhua asked a few words about the Queen Mother's body and diet, and then told the Queen Mother about the situation of the Marquis of Jinyang that Meng Jinghan told her, and the Queen Mother really hadn't gotten the news here, and the corners of her mouth drooped slightly when she heard the words.
Jinyang Hou is fine, the Empress Dowager is also relieved, she cheered up a little spirit to talk to Zhuang Minhua, talking and talking, talking about the two or three things that Jinyang Hou chased the eldest princess of Guangde back then, and said that when the Marquis of Jinyang first saw the eldest princess of Guangde, he was still the prince of the Marquis of Jinyang. On that day, he entered the palace to see the emperor, and when he walked out of a corridor, it happened that the eldest princess of Guangde passed by another corridor, and the Marquis of Jinyang was stunned. It happened that he was walking at the time, and while he was walking, he turned his head to look at the eldest princess of Guangde, but he hit the pillar of the corridor and fainted on the spot.
Another time, the Marquis of Jinyang wanted to peek at the eldest princess of Guangde, so he climbed a tree, but there was a swarm of bees on the tree, and he was stung on the spot, fell from the tree, and fainted.
……
The corners of Zhuang Minhua's mouth twitched and she listened to the Empress Dowager talk about the two or three things about Jinyang Hou's ugliness with great interest, how could she listen to it and think that this Jinyang Hou was a little funny! It must have been her delusion. She was embarrassed to listen to the gossip of her elders anymore, and hurriedly interrupted the Empress Dowager's words, "Imperial grandmother, why don't you tell me about the emperor's childhood!" ”
"Your Majesty!" The Empress Dowager thought for a while before she said: "The emperor is the eldest son, he has been talented since he was a child, and he can memorize the surnames of hundreds ......of families since he was five years old."
The more Zhuang Minyu listened, the more wrong it became, Meng Jinghan is the eldest son, as for whether he will recite the surname of the hundred families at the age of five, she doesn't know, but he was still on the battlefield when he was fifteen years old, but he didn't marry a wife, let alone a princess, so the empress dowager was talking about the first emperor?
Zhuang Minhua looked at the Empress Dowager fixedly, saw that her eyes were cloudy, looked in one direction, and said slowly with a smile while reminiscing. Zhuang Minhua sighed in his heart, this old lady was too sad and a little confused. But the old lady looked happy, and she couldn't bear to interrupt, so she should listen to the story.
With the words of the Empress Dowager, she seemed to see a child grow up slowly, become the crown prince, ascend to the throne, the first half of the business was booming, and the political achievements were excellent, but the second half of her life ended up like that. (To be continued.) )
