Chapter 1176: The Ninth Day of the Fifth Month

Yin Zhen put his worries behind for the time being, pecked Ling Ruo's smooth forehead and said, "You wrapped it with your own hands, I naturally can't help but appreciate my face." ”

His words made Ling Ruo laugh, and ordered Shui Xiu to take a few of the wrapped dumplings to steam, and after waiting for half an hour, he saw Shui Xiu come up with the steamed dumplings, and there was a plate of brown sugar served together, Yin Zhen sighed lightly: "Isn't there a filling for this zongzi, and you still want to eat brown sugar?" ”

Ling Ruo took a zongzi, untied the cotton thread tied to it, and then peeled the zongzi completely and put it in a small bowl in front of Yinzhen, "The concubine knows that the emperor has eaten the zongzi sent by the imperial dining room before, and those zongzi have fillings in them, although they taste good, but they are easy to get tired of eating too much, so the concubine let Shui Xiu steam a few without filling, although there is not so much taste, but eating with brown sugar, you can eat the most original flavor of zongzi, which may not be worse than those with filling." ”

"If you say it's delicious, it's delicious." Xu was because he had lost his temper with Ling Ruo for no reason just now, and because he felt guilty, Yin Zhen's expression was even gentler than just now.

Yinzhen took the silver chopsticks handed by Shui Xiu, took a chopstick of zongzi and put the brown sugar in his mouth, chewed it and nodded: "Well, there is no taste mixed in with it, the taste is more pure when you eat it, and it is chewy, which is really good." ”

"It's good if the emperor likes it." Saying this, Ling Ruo glanced up and said, "It's a pity that you can't see the full moon on the fifth day of the first lunar month today, otherwise you can enjoy the moon while eating zongzi." ”

Yin Zhen took a look at it and said with a smile: "When the moon is full in the Mid-Autumn Festival, I can accompany you to enjoy the moon while eating moon cakes." ”

Ling Ruo's eyebrows bent slightly, and he said pleasantly: "You have no jokes, since the emperor has promised his concubines, he will definitely have to honor it when the time comes." ”

"I will never forget!" At this moment, Yin Zhen's eyes were gentle and solemn, and it was also at this moment that no figure other than Ling Ruo appeared in his mind, including Shu Mulu's family.

Under the long night, the spring in the shark yarn tent in the inner hall of the Chengqian Palace is deep......

At this moment, I think it was the time when Yinzhen and Ling Ruo felt that the years were quiet, but Shu Mulu in Shui Yixuan did not feel quiet at all, but was apprehensive.

Ruliu walked to Shu Mulu's side and said softly: "Master, it's late at night, why don't you rest?" ”

Shu Mulu ignored her words, but said, "Where did the emperor go tonight?" ”

Ruliu hesitated for a moment and said, "The slave maid heard that she went to Chengqian Palace, and she didn't think she would come, so don't wait." ”

"Since the lockdown was lifted, the emperor has only summoned me once, but he often goes to see Concubine Xi, heh, I really don't understand, Concubine Xi is already old and decrepit, what else is there to see." When she said the latter sentence, Shu Mulu's voice unconsciously sharpened, which showed that her heart was full of unwillingness.

"The emperor is a long-term lover, and going to see Concubine Xi is nothing more than thinking about the old love, and what he really cares about is the master, so the master doesn't need to be angry about it at all." Ruliu's kind words and persuasion did not make Shu Mulu's eyebrows, but shook his head and said: "If it is really just like this, I don't have to form an alliance with the Liu family, the emperor treats Concubine Xi far more heavily than anyone else, otherwise he would not be harsh on me because I said a few words to Concubine Xi, and let the Jingshifang seal my green head card, and now I am even stronger to endure the medicine in his body to see Concubine Xi." ”

Ruliu helped her to sit down in front of the dresser and comforted: "The emperor can endure it for a while, but he can't endure it for a lifetime, and he will eventually return to his master's side, and no one can take the master's place." ”

Shu Mulu looked at himself in the mirror and said coldly: "But if you don't move the obstacle of Concubine Xi away, it will always be a big trouble." I'm trying to deal with her, and she's trying to deal with me. ”

Ruliu said while unloading the hairpin between Shu Mulu's hair: "What did the master think of?" ”

"Not for the time being, and the emperor is only afraid that the emperor will still mind the last time, if I say anything about Concubine Xi again, things will only be more troublesome." Shu Mulu picked the pendant under his ear and said: "It is important to get rid of Concubine Xi, but the most important thing is to protect yourself." ”

Ruliu nodded, and after putting down Shu Mulu's shiny and silky hair, she suddenly remembered something, "Master, there is not much medicine left, the slave maid Ming'er wants to go out of the palace and buy some more." ”

Although these medicines are also available in the imperial pharmacy, in order to avoid being suspected, Shu Mulu never goes to the imperial pharmacy to get them, and asks Ruliu to go to the pharmacy outside the palace to buy them, and they all choose the kind of pharmacy located in the middle of nowhere. Of course, the reason for leaving the palace is to write about visiting his family, and every time Ruliu buys medicine, he will go to the house to hide people's eyes.

Shu Mulu nodded and said, "Well, be careful yourself, don't be discovered." ”

"Slaves and maids can be saved." Saying this, Ruliu didn't say much, and helped her to the bed to rest after removing her makeup for Shu Mulu's family, "The master rests earlier, don't think too much." When he was about to withdraw his hand, he inadvertently touched a hard thing under the soft pillow, and suddenly remembered that the dagger was still pressed under the pillow, and said: "Master, you haven't had a nightmare for a long time, so put this dagger back, otherwise put it under the pillow like this, how can you be injured by mistake." ”

Before Liu's voice fell, Shu Mulu had firmly pressed the soft pillow and said, "If it's not in the way, just let it go." ”

Seeing that Shu Mulu insisted, Ruliu had to cling to her, and after Ruliu went down, she reached under the pillow and held the dagger firmly, and a trace of fear flashed in her eyes.

She may have changed a lot, but she was still timid after all, afraid that the cat spirit would appear again, so she kept pressing the dagger under the pillow and refused to take it.

On the ninth day of the fifth month, it was soon here, and the atmosphere in Chengqian Palace was a little dull because Hongli was about to leave, and there was no smile on his face, and Ling Ruo couldn't sleep all night, keeping his eyes open until dawn.

When Hongli went to the side hall for breakfast, he saw Ling Ruo's tired face, and knew that Eniang couldn't rest assured of himself, so he squatted in front of Ling Ruo and said: "Eniang, you don't have to worry about Erchen, Erchen will take good care of himself, and there is Xiao Zhengzi and them following." ”

Ling Ruo smiled slightly, stroked Hongli's cheek and said softly: "Let you say anything, what else can E-Niang say, okay, sit down and eat, E-Niang will send you out later." ”

After taking Shui Xiu's porridge, Ling Ruo asked, "Have you chosen all the people to take away?" Your Emperor Ama has opened his mouth this time, and it's up to you to choose. ”

"Well, Erchen has already decided, except for Xiao Zhengzi, the rest of the few who will wait for Erchen when they are young will also be taken away."

Ling Ruo took a chopstick of freshly fried vegetables into the Hongli bowl, "Don't you bring a few more?" Just these people, Eniang is afraid that they won't be able to take care of them. ”
