Chapter 061: Unraveling the Fog (5)

Eighteen was soon sent back, but Jian Ning also knew, and if she wanted to pass the news out, she was afraid that it would not work.

But what I didn't expect was that on the night of the second day, Wu Shi unexpectedly appeared.

The moment Jian Ning saw him, she felt that she was very untrustworthy, and said in surprise: "How do you know that I have something to look for you?" ”

Wu Shi shook his head and said, "You have to thank you for having a smart subordinate. ”

"Ah Hai?" Hearing Wu Shi say this, Jian Ning thought of it almost immediately.

Before, he sent Ah Hai to the Sword Fire House to find Huo Tianyuan to get artillery, so he didn't stay by his side. It is estimated that after he returned to the Food Garden, he found that he was trapped in the palace, so he went to Lingsui to find someone to help.

Wu Shi nodded, sat on the brocade stool in the room, poured himself a glass of water, and said lightly: "If you have anything, just say it." Although I came in, there are too many eyes in this place, and it must not be long before Long Zeye will come. ”

"I remember you told me before that Xiaoyaozi's wife died at the hands of the Empress Dowager, and I want to know more about this matter." Jian Ning knew that time was precious, and she didn't care about asking Wu Shi Lingsui about her current situation, so she could only ask her own questions.

Wu Shi frowned, looked at Jian Ning and said, "Why do you suddenly want to know these things?" ”

"Actually, I'm not sure yet, but I think these things may have something to do with what is happening now." Jian Ning said with doubts in his tone.

"Actually, I don't know these things very well, but I heard my father mention them by chance before. If you really want to know something specific, you may have to start somewhere else. Wu Shi said with some embarrassment.

"It's time for me to go." Wu Shi suddenly got up and said, "Don't worry, you may not have to stay in this palace for too long." ”

Before Jian Ning came, she hurriedly asked Wu Shi what he meant by this, and she already felt a breeze blowing in from the window.

Although Yuan Chu's winter was much warmer than Zhi Lingsui's, it was cold after all, and Jian Ning unconsciously gathered the coat he was wearing.

Before he could close the window, the door had already been pushed open, and Long Zeye strode in. This is the first time Long Zeye has come to this Yuqing Xiaozhu in this period of time.

Xiao Fuzi immediately led people to light all the lights and candles in the house. The originally dimly lit room immediately became brighter.

Long Zeye's gaze fell on the unclosed window. said: "It's cold at night, and Concubine Yi is afraid of the cold, so she should close the window so as not to suffer the cold." ”

Anyway. He even glared angrily at the people who were serving below: "How do you serve your master!" ”

"It's a little colder though. But there was charcoal burning in the house. You should also open the window occasionally to let in the air. Jian Ning didn't want to say these troublesome words, but the current situation had to be like this.

"It's late at night, why did the emperor suddenly come to Yuqing Xiaozhu?"

"I was going to tell you again tomorrow morning. But it's better to tell you earlier, so as not to be too hasty tomorrow and make a mess. Long Zeye looked at Jian Ning and said lightly.

But for some reason, Jian Ning always felt that there was something hidden in Long Zeye's calm.

Jian Ning didn't speak, quietly waiting for Long Zeye's next words.

"The back position is already vacant, and the affairs of the harem cannot be taken care of by no one, so I have decided to promote you to be the queen. It just so happens that tomorrow is the last good day of the year, and it is just the right time for the canonization ceremony. Long Zeye looked at Jian Ning and said.

Jian Ning's heart suddenly sudden, a trace of surprise and surprise flashed on her face, and she said: "There is a more suitable candidate for the rear position than me, why should the emperor make it difficult for everyone to be strong?" ”

In this harem, no matter how you look at it, the current concubine may be the biggest on the throne. Not to mention her family identity, even the year she entered the palace and her behavior are far more suitable than herself.

In fact, what worries Jian Ning even more is why Long Zeye suddenly made himself the queen in such a hurry? I can't even wait a few days, I just want to be tomorrow.

You must know that the queen's canonization ceremony is by no means a simple ceremony, from the clothes worn when the salute is carried out, to the worship of the ancestors with the emperor, these things can not be prepared overnight.

"It's up to me to decide whether it's suitable or not." Long Zeye's gaze stayed on Jian Ning's body for a long time, and finally turned around and left.

"Since it's late at night, Concubine Yi should rest early, and when she falls asleep at night, it is better to close the window tightly, so as not to enter something that should not be entered. Tomorrow, I will send someone to serve on time. ”

Long Zeye's words seemed to be still in his ears, but people couldn't see them anymore.

Xiaofuzi and the rest of the minions all came in to congratulate him, but Jian Ning didn't know what it was like in her heart.

After instructing Xiaofuzi to extinguish a few lights, he let Qingzhi and Xiaozhu wait to rest.

Lying on the bed, Jian Ning couldn't sleep. Something must have happened, or something is going to happen, otherwise Wu Shi would not have said something like that, and Long Zeye would not have done it suddenly.

Even if she didn't go out to look, Jian Ning knew that there were more people outside than before, because the surroundings were quieter.

I don't know how long it took to be in a daze, but I felt that I had just fallen asleep, and I was woken up by Qingzhi softly.

"What time is it?" It was still dark outside, Jian Ning rubbed her eyes and asked sleepily.

"It's just over the fifth watch, and it's already time. The people sent by the emperor are already waiting outside, and the mother needs to go to bathe and change clothes first. Qing Zhi replied while putting on a thick coat for Jian Ning.

Although Jian Ning was unwilling, she also let them fiddle with it, after all, whether she wanted it or not, the result was the same.

The people sent by Long Zeye were all a little old, and they should all be old people in the palace, but they didn't see Yuyun.

From bathing, burning incense, to dressing, and grooming, these old people are all doing it, although there are many people, but they don't show a trace of panic, and they are all so orderly, it can be seen that this is not the first time that such a thing has been done.

Jian Ning was curious for a moment, so she asked, "Where did the aunts serve before, why haven't you seen them before?" ”

"If you go back to Niangniang, the old slaves are all from the Master of Ceremonies, and they are mainly responsible for the canonization and promotion of the master in this palace, as well as the etiquette teaching in the palace before the show girl enters the palace." One of them stood up and replied to Jian Ning with a faint smile.

"Did the show girl have etiquette before entering the palace? Why didn't I have it in the first place? Jian Ning asked suspiciously.

When she entered the palace, Qingzhi and Yuyun slowly told themselves about some etiquette and rules in the palace.

"Niangniang was specially recruited as a show girl by the emperor's order, so naturally she is different from others." The man still had a smile on his face.

Jian Ning didn't ask much about this matter, and after a while, the makeup was almost done.

The aunt looked at it, and a trace of nostalgia seemed to flash in her eyes, and said: "Niangniang is really beautiful, just like the Xiangfei Niangniang back then, which is memorable." (To be continued......)
