Chapter 035: Whistleblowing
In Jingren Palace, green smoke curls and bead curtains hang low......
A young woman is sitting in front of a bronze mirror with her eyes closed, she is wearing a goose-yellow brocade tunic with gold silk trimming, and the cuffs are embroidered with colorful phoenixes and auspicious clouds. A green silk drape spread out and hung down to the waist, and two pink-clothed palace maids were waiting for the left and right, gently stroking their hair with a jade comb......
In the incense burner on the dresser, the precious spices paid tribute by the Kelan Kingdom are burning vigorously, and the bursts of aroma are rising in a curling curl, refreshing people's hearts......
The woman with closed eyes is very enjoyable, her face is peaceful and slightly lazy, she is thinly powdered, her eyebrows are like willow bends, a little dimple dotted on her cheeks, and a thin lip that is not painted vermilion is better than vermilion, and her skin is like condensation, and she is full of charm.
The pink-clothed palace maid opened the sandalwood gilt box on the table, took out a string of vermilion hairpins and compared them on the woman's good bun, felt that it was not good, so she put it down again, picked up a string of jade and jasper and shook it on her head, and asked: "Niangniang looks good today, is it good to take this step?" ”
The woman opened her eyes, raised her slender hand and compared, and answered lazily: "Uh-huh......"
"It's so nice to have a mother with this!"
"That's, who is our mother, everything looks good!"
The two palace maids sang and praised in harmony, and the woman glanced at the two of them: "You are good at things, and your mouth is getting sweeter?" ”
"The mother laughs, the slaves don't dare, the slaves and maids are telling the truth......" said and laughed.
The woman was not annoyed, so she passed the time and chatted with the two girls without saying a word.
The room was peaceful, but it was bitter for the one who was waiting at the door......
Tian Rong's father-in-law had been waiting outside the door for an hour, he was in a hurry to report the situation to Niangniang, and he couldn't bear to wake up Niangniang, so he had to wait at the door like this. The weather was cold, so cold that Tian Rong's father-in-law couldn't stop stomping his feet to keep warm, and after listening to the sound of talking in the room, Tian Rong pushed the door in.
Bypassing the bead curtain, seeing that Niangniang was in a good mood, he hesitated again, thinking about whether to slow down first? After a moment of hesitation, a voice came from inside the room: "Is it Tian Rong?" ”
"Yes, the slave greets the queen!" Tian Rong immediately knelt down and saluted. The woman continued to fiddle with the vows on her head, and lazily replied, "Get up......"
"Thank you, Queen Mother!"
"What's wrong, I want you to come early in the morning?"
"Niangniang......" Tian Rong wanted to speak and stopped.
"How's that? So spitting? That's not your style! ”
"Mother forgive...... The minion does have something, but he doesn't know about it, so he shouldn't talk about it......" said and glanced at the two pink-clothed palace maids with his eyes.
The queen waved her hand, and the work of the palace maids stopped.
"You go down first!"
"Yes......" The two saluted and retreated. Seeing that the two of them were gone, Tian Rong breathed a sigh of relief, and the queen asked casually, "Can you say it this time?" What is so mysterious? ”
"Back to the Queen...... Something is indeed wrong......" Tian Rong lowered his voice.
"Something? Okay, say it quickly, don't sell it! ”
"The matter...... It's about His Royal Highness, last night...... According to the guards who patrolled last night, His Royal Highness hugged a fainting palace maid......"
"Nonsense! is not very old, but he is a palace maid?! The queen slammed the table and stood up directly from the stool angrily, her willow eyebrows upside down and her apricot eyes round.
"Mother's anger! Mother is angry! Listen to the minions...... The Second Highness did not carry the palace maid back to his bedroom, but ...... Instead, he was sent to Zhengxiang Palace......" After Tian Rong finished speaking, he raised his eyelids and secretly observed the expression of the queen mother.
The queen mother showed that she didn't expect things to develop like this, which was a bit unexpected for her.
"He went to Zhengxiang Palace? Where is Leng Chen? ”
"If you go back to your mother, it is the bedroom of Your Highness......"
"What is this Yang'er trying to do? The prince of a country, go and hug a lowly slave! It's a disgrace to the royal face! Who is the palace maid? Have you checked it out? ”
"Speaking of this, the slave felt strange, it stands to reason that whenever the palace maid enters the palace, the Internal Affairs Office must have a detailed record of the identity and background, but yesterday the slave checked all night, and did not find any information about this person, and there was not even a person named Ruo'an......
"Joan?" The queen's brows were twisted together.
"Yes, Niangniang, the palace maid held by His Royal Highness is called Ruo'an, the specific surname is ominous, I asked the people in the palace nearby, and they all said that they had never seen this woman, as for the Zhengxiang Palace under His Royal Highness, the door has been closed since yesterday......"
The queen mother frowned and fell into deep thought, and Tian Rong couldn't help but sigh in her heart to pity the parents of the world...... These two highnesses are the people on the tip of the queen's mother's heart, and they think about him everywhere, but these two highnesses follow the demon and stick to their half-brother all day long, and they are becoming more and more estranged from their biological mother. But even so, the queen still thinks about him everywhere.
"It doesn't matter if you can't find it, just a palace maid, except for the whisper...... But before that, I'll have to bring it for Hongu to see, and I'll see what kind of face she looks like! The sun that can be tired! As she spoke, the queen held the potted flowers on the table with her hands, and as soon as her nails were forced, a budding flower bone was pinched off like this and thrown to the ground......
Before Leng An finished drinking the medicine in her hand, she received a summons from the queen mother, and she was so frightened that she almost smashed the bowl on the ground...... The father-in-law who announced the decree did not leave, but stood aside and urged: "Girl, please hurry up, the queen's patience is not good!" ”
"Please also ask for some refreshments and wait a while...... When Miss Ruo'an went to change her clothes, such an indecent outfit would not be able to enter the eyes of the queen's mother......" Aunt Qiao'er hurriedly said with a smile on her face, although the eldest prince on the side did not speak, but the look in her eyes was enough to deter these minions, and the father-in-law who passed the decree was not good at urging, so she had to respond with a smile: "Then bother the aunt to hurry up, the queen mother is waiting, and the slaves can't afford to return late......"
"Naturally, please take care of ......my father-in-law more," Aunt Qiao'er said and pulled Leng An into the inner room, and as soon as she entered the inner room, Leng An was so anxious that she didn't know what to do: "Aunt Qiao'er...... What should I do? Why does the queen want to see me? ”
"You calm down first...... Someone must have told the truth, otherwise the queen wouldn't have known so quickly......"
"So what now? What do you want to say when you see the queen? Leng An became more and more worried, she had not even learned the basic etiquette, and when she saw the queen, she would show a lot of horses, although she had been in this other world for half a year, but she stayed in Kunxi Palace all day long, and she didn't know anything about the outside world, except for knowing a few princes and princesses, she didn't even know the current emperor...... Not to mention the queen, although she rules the six palaces, Leng An still feels very strange...... If a strange woman has to see herself, nothing good will definitely happen...... Leng An's intuition told him that this was destined to be a difficult woman......
