Gu Jinzhi smiled and thanked Aunt Cheng.

Then he started gossiping with her.

"When the earth dragon turned over, no one in the palace was injured, right?" Gu Jinzhi asked.

"Although most of the houses in the palace are newly built, there are also some that are not strong. Lu Guiren's palace collapsed, and she and a few servants did not come out. Aunt Cheng sighed and said, "The side hall of Jinghe Palace has also collapsed, and Concubine De is frightened." Miss Seven, do you want to see Concubine De Niangniang? ”

Aunt Cheng wanted to take Gu Jinzhi away.

The Queen Mother probably doesn't want to see her now.

Gu Jin's way is.

She came out of Kunning Palace and went all the way to Jinghe Palace.

Aunt Cheng sent an attendant to see her off.

When I arrived at Jinghe Palace, Concubine De was copying Buddhist scriptures.

The palace maid Lan'er greeted Gu Jinzhi.

Concubine De put down the pen and asked the palace maid to move the brocade for Gu Jinzhi to sit on.

"I don't know where the curse was committed this time, the earth dragon turned over and moved so much!" Concubine De said to Gu Jinzhi privately, "I heard that a lot of people died outside, how is the family, is anyone injured?" ”

Gu Jinzhi told her what he knew.

Lan'er personally held tea for Gu Jinzhi.

Last time, Gu Jinzhi asked her aunt to check Lan'er's life experience, and found out that Lan'er was a girl from a peasant family in the suburbs of the capital, who had been clever and smart since she was a child, and she was famous in Zhuangzi.

She has both parents and has two younger brothers and a younger sister at home. The parents are very diligent, have a few acres of thin fields, and live a comfortable life. Her father was a loyal man, and her mother was honest.

Born in such a family, Lan'er has lived in a more loving environment since she was a child. formed her more cheerful and enthusiastic character.

She is smart, can calculate some small accounts, and is kind, and everyone in Zhuangzi likes her very much.

The eldest aunt found out these things, and her evaluation of Lan'er was good.

Besides, Lan'er's family has always been like this, and she didn't suddenly get rich, so she shouldn't have accepted benefits to Concubine De.

I didn't see any distinguished guests at Lan'er's house.

This is known for the time being.

The eldest aunt continued to keep an eye on it.

Gu Jinzhi took the tea from Lan'er and thought of this. She thanked her and didn't look at Lan'er. Quietly took a sip.

"It's all good at home. My dad had his leg crushed. Over there in the old house, the yard of the third sister-in-law was hit by a tree, and the rest was fine. "Gu Jin's way," Aunt Cheng said. Your side hall here has also collapsed. Are you alright? ”

Concubine De smiled. Pointing to the westernmost side: "It's the side hall over there, which is idle on weekdays." It's not collapsed, it's just that the glazed tiles have fallen. That glazed tile. It's been loosened a long time ago, and last time Lan'er told me to call someone to fix it. I thought about it and didn't need to, so I didn't mention what to do with the trouble in vain. Sure enough, when the earth dragon turned over, the glazed tile fell.

In the palace, except for Lu Guiren, who was unlucky and crushed to death, the palaces of the others are intact, and I am the only one who has lost the tile roof here, so I will say it everywhere. Tan Guifei also said that it was I who disrespected the Bodhisattva on weekdays......"

With that, she snorted contemptuously.

Lan'er glanced at her.

Concubine De had no choice but to say: "I really don't respect the Bodhisattva on weekdays. This time, I was not crushed to death like Lu Guiren, and it can be regarded as a bodhisattva's blessing, so I was only warned. No, I've been copying Buddhist scriptures for the past two days......"

"It's not too late to make amends." Gu Jinzhi said with a smile, "Niang Niangfu has a great life." ”

Concubine De also laughed, she liked to hear this.

"What is a great blessing and a great life? It's just a fluke. Concubine De said, "The third princess is okay there, I'll rest assured." You don't know, the eldest princess and the second princess are scared sick. The eldest princess is five years old, and she is too scared to sleep; The second princess had a fever again. The third princess was safe and sound. This is the blessing of the Bodhisattva. ”

It turned out that this was the reason why she copied Buddhist scriptures.

Gu Jinzhi said yes with a smile, and said that the third princess is blessed with a great life!

“…… Did you come to the palace to see the Queen Mother? Finally, Concubine De asked about Gu Jinzhi's purpose for entering the palace.

Gu Jinzhi said yes, and said: "The prince has been in the palace for several days, and he has not left the palace, I will take a look at the prince." ”

Concubine De was a little surprised: "Which prince, King Luyang?" He's back? ”

Gu Jinzhi sighed in his heart.

"You don't know?" Gu Jinzhi asked rhetorically, "The prince has been back for several days. He entered the palace on the day the earth dragon turned over. ”

Concubine De glanced at Lan'er.

Lan'er shook her head slightly.

Concubine De looked at Gu Jinzhi a little nervously again.

She coughed and said, "It's been a mess these days, and the emperor has been resting in the outer study and hasn't come in." I also only cared about copying Buddhist scriptures, and didn't pay attention to the affairs of the Queen Mother. ”

How is it possible not to be careful?

If such a big thing happens, these concubines will definitely go to Kunning Palace to ask the Queen Mother for peace.

King Luyang is in Kunning Palace, even if they haven't seen it, they have heard of it.

Gu Jin was confused.

first in Kunning Palace, the Queen Mother uncharacteristically did not see her; Concubine De said again, I didn't know that King Luyang had entered the palace. This qiē made Gu Jinzhi feel in a trance, did he hallucinate?

Perhaps, Zhu Zhongjun never came back at all?

The idea quickly faded.

Because Aunt Cheng said that the prince and the queen mother were talking in the inner hall......

The emperor has not entered the inner palace for several days, he is probably anxious now, whether Zhu Zhongjun has entered the palace or not, the emperor may really not know.

What is the Queen Mother hiding from everyone?

She glanced at Lan'er out of the corner of her eye, and quickly lost her feelings.

Concubine De was also more curious.

She asked Gu Jinzhi tentatively: "Lord Wang...... When did he come back from Luzhou, did he come back to prepare for marriage? ”

Gu Jin's way is.

She suddenly lost her mood, and Concubine De was homely.

"Niangniang, can I go and see the third princess?" Gu Jinzhi asked.

Concubine De smiled and said, "This palace also wants to go and see." Let's go, Hongu will take you there. ”

She was so happy that she took Gu Jinzhi out of Jinghe Palace and went to see the third princess once.

Seeing the third princess, Concubine De's mind was on her daughter.

The third princess is about to turn two years old.

She doesn't just walk, she talks a lot.

She speaks clearly. It was lovely.

Concubine De couldn't put it down.

The emperor also loved this daughter very much. Not only because the third princess looks like an emperor, but also because the third princess is unprecedentedly smart.

Boys inherit all of their mother's IQ, while girls are divided equally between their parents.

Concubine De herself can't give birth to such a clever daughter.

The emperor raised the IQ of the third princess.

Concubine De teased her daughter and couldn't take care of Gu Jinzhi, so Gu Jinzhi took the opportunity to leave.

Lan'er gave Gu Jin a ride.

Gu Jinzhi asked her quietly: "In the past few days, is the Queen Mother okay?" ”

Lan'er knew what Gu Jinzhi wanted to ask her.

But in this palace, there are eyes and ears everywhere, where can you talk nonsense?

"Go to Kunning Palace to ask for peace, it's not a slave to accompany Niangniang." Lan'er smiled. "The slave doesn't know."

Gu Jinzhi's heart went up and down. It's back to Kunning Palace.

It was still Aunt Cheng who came out and said to Gu Jin: "Miss Seven, Niangniang is a little tired and has already rested." The prince is accompanying the mother. You go back first. Come back tomorrow. ”

Gu Jinzhi glanced at her.

Seeing that she looked dignified and calm. Gu Jinzhi knew that nothing could be done if he asked.

She smiled. thanked him: "Then I'll go out first." My aunt greeted my mother for me, and said that Xiao Qi kowtowed to the Queen Mother. In the past few days, there has been chaos in the city, and it is not easy to get out. I'll wait a few days and the city will be calmer, and then I'll come to the Queen Mother to say goodbye. ”

Aunt Cheng's expression finally fluctuated.

She quickly withdrew and said with a smile: "The slave will tell the mother." ”

Gu Jin thanked him and turned around to leave.

Aunt Cheng sent her.

Before she went out, Mrs. Ning from the Yiyan Hou Mansion brought her daughter Ning Cheng in to say goodbye, and happened to bump into Gu Jinzhi going out.

Several people saluted each other.

Ning Ming's gaze turned on Gu Jinzhi.

Ning Cheng and the Tan family agreed to marry at the end of this year.

She has always disliked Gu Jinzhi.

Seeing Gu Jinzhi at this moment, she frowned slightly.

Gu Jinzhi went out by mistake.

Mrs. Ning asked Aunt Cheng: "What is Miss Gu doing here, is it against the queen mother's phoenix body?" ”

"The Queen Mother is very good." Aunt Cheng said perfunctorily.

Mrs. Ning knew the weight of Aunt Cheng in front of the Queen Mother, even if she was a good person, she was a little afraid of Aunt Cheng, so she still had to be happy with Aunt Cheng's perfunctory.

"Wait a minute, slave maid go in." Aunt Cheng said to Mrs. Ning and Ning Yuan.

Mrs. Ning said yes.

After waiting for half a cup of tea, Aunt Cheng came out again and invited Mrs. Ning and Ning Cheng to go in.

Mrs. Ning took her daughter and entered the inner hall.

The Queen Mother sat alone on the phoenix couch with a kind smile.

Mrs. Ning said some words of blessing as usual, and said: "We were all scared to death this time, and we only came to greet my mother today." ”

"It's okay here for the mourning family." The Queen Mother smiled, "You have a heart." The mourning family knows that your family is also in chaos, so I will not leave you in vain today. ”

Then asked Aunt Cheng to send the mother and daughter of the Ning family out.

Ning Cheng was a little surprised.

On weekdays, when she and her mother enter the palace, the Queen Mother will ask a lot of questions.

Why is this time so abnormal?

Is it related to Gu Jinzhi's entry into the palace just now?

Mrs. Ning also felt different.

Aunt Cheng sent them all the way to the gate of the palace.

The more Ning Cheng thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, and she told her father about her doubts.

"Dad, don't you have any dealings with Chang Shun's father-in-law of Kunning Palace, why don't you ask him, did the Gu family say bad things about us?" Ning Cheng said to her father.

Ning Cao glared at her.

"How many years have passed, and you still don't want to see Miss Gu? She saved your father's life, but she's sorry for you, isn't she? Ning Cao scolded her daughter.

Ning Cheng was so frightened that she didn't dare to say more.

She felt that her father had gone a little too far.

Gu Jinzhi saved her father's life two years ago.

Not worth being grateful for so long.

And today in Kunning Palace, there are definitely ghosts.

Ning Cheng herself, found a way to find Chang Shun, and asked him what happened in Kunning Palace today.

"The Queen Mother didn't see Miss Gu." Chang Shun said to Ning Ming, "Miss Gu entered the palace for more than an hour and went out. The Queen Mother said that she was not very comfortable, so she didn't see her. ”

Chang Shun was the steward eunuch of Kunning Palace.

He knows what to say and what not to say.

Some words are inconsequential, they won't offend Gu Jinzhi, and they can please Ning Cheng if they say it, why not?

He didn't know Ning Cheng's dissatisfaction with Gu Jinzhi.

Ning Yuan's eyes lit up when she heard this.
