Chapter 1923 The First Day of the Seventh Month
"Okay, just remember that." After a few words, Ling Ruo asked Congxiang to hurry back, so as not to be suspicious if the Guerjia clan couldn't find her.
The two days passed in a hurry, and soon it was the first day of the seventh month, just as Congxiang expected, Hongzhan took the Guerjia clan to Kunning Palace early in the morning.
On the way, Hongzhan accidentally fell because he was walking too fast, and Guerjia helped him up and scolded: "You kid, what are you doing running so fast, and no one is chasing you behind." β
He pursed his lips and smiled: "I don't know why, every time I go to the queen mother on the first day of the new year, the sixth elder brother walks very fast and is very energetic." Sixth elder brother, can you talk to the slave maid, why did you run so fast? β
"Because you can ......" Hongzhan is small after all, as soon as he heard Congyi's question, he subconsciously wanted to say it, but fortunately, when the words came to his mouth, he remembered Liu's instructions, and hurriedly covered his mouth with his chubby little hand.
His appearance made Congyi even more curious, and asked, "Sixth Elder Brother said it soon, why?" β
Hongzhan covered his mouth firmly, lest he couldn't help but say it as soon as he let go, but his eyes had already turned into a crescent moon with a smile. After a long time, he finally let go, and said crisply in a series of laughter: "If you don't sue sΓΉ, you won't sue sΓΉ." β
His cute appearance made the Guerjia clan chuckle, "You kid, you have learned to sell guanzi at a young age, and you can't even sue your aunt?" β
Hongzhan's expression became nervous because of Guarjia's words, and it took a while to hold back a sentence and say: "Because...... Because there are many delicious foods in the emperor's mother, the cuckoo will take me around to play. β
As soon as he heard this, he said unwillingly: "The slave maid and Congxiang often take the sixth elder brother to play, but I have never seen the sixth elder brother so happy." β
Hongzhan blushed and didn't know how to answer, and finally simply said as a scoundrel: "I just like it!" I just love it! β
Laughing all the way, they soon came to Kunning Palace, and the Nala clan was quite happy to see them coming, especially Hongzhan, and asked him a lot of questions before letting the cuckoo take him down to play, while she herself talked to the Guerjia clan.
Sometimes, in the middle of a sentence, Gualja would burst out laughing or say something unintelligible, and Nala would be a little surprised, but he didn't say much.
Congxiang stood behind Guerjia's family, seeing her pick up the tea cup from time to time, his heart was nervous for a while, according to Concubine Xi's words, it is likely that this tea has been drugged, and every time the master drinks it, his condition will be aggravated. No, she must find a way to stop it, and Concubine Xi said that she must take some tea back.
When the Guerjia clan drank only half a cup of tea, she pressed the tension in her heart, held the tea and said, "Master, the slave will go and add you some tea." β
Guarjia nodded, Congxiang was about to go out with tea, Nala called her and said, "Congxiang, let Xiao Ningzi go and add it, you don't know where the teahouse is." β
Congxiang was willing to follow, and hurriedly said: "Don't dare to bother Father-in-law Ning, let's go with the slave and maid, as for the location of the tea room, the slave and maid have come with the master so many times, and probably know where it is." β
Congxiang thought that the Nala clan would think of stopping it, but she actually agreed, and Congxiang came outside with a teacup.
But this is a good thing for her, as soon as she goes outside, she immediately pours the remaining tea into a small porcelain bottle hidden in her arms, and then re-brews the tea into it.
On the other side, Du Juan took him to see Liu on the grounds of leading Hongzhan out to play as before, and Hongzhan was very happy to see Liu for the first time, and told Liu's about the recent period of time, but as he spoke, his expression dimmed, and even his words were less.
Liu Shi said with concern: "What's the matter, are you not happy to see Eniang?" β
"It's not." Hongzhan hurriedly denied it, and then said: "Erchen is just thinking about her aunt, she doesn't know what illness she has, something is wrong recently, Erchen is very worried that something will happen to her." β
Hongzhan's words made Liu's eyes cold, stroked the back of Hongzhan's neck, and said softly: "You care about Concubine Jin very much." β
"She's always treated her sons very well." After this sentence, Liu Shi has not made a sound, this anomaly made Hongzhan raise his head sensitively, looked at Liu Shi and said cautiously: "Eniang, are you happy?" β
Liu smiled slightly and said, "Concubine Jin treats you so well, you should care about her, how can Eniang be unhappy." E-Niang was just thinking about how the concubine could get sick when she was so good? However, there are so many doctors in the palace, and they should be cured soon, so don't worry too much. β
Hongzhan nodded and remembered something, and said, "Eniang, do you have tea on you, the tea you gave to Erchen has been used up before." β
Hearing this, Liu Shi smiled deeply on his face, and said, "You have been making tea for Concubine Jin for several months, so you don't need it." β
Hongzhan said suspiciously: "Why, didn't you say that you should let Erchen be as well-behaved as possible, and then beg your aunt to let Erchen return to you?" β
"Because the time has come." Liu Shi said gently: "Tonight, you can go and ask Concubine Jin to let her let you return to Eniang." β
"Now?" Hongzhan showed a hint of embarrassment on his little face, and said in a low voice: "But my aunt is sick now, and my son goes to beg her, will she agree?" β
"Concubine Jin has always been kind to others, presumably God will not embarrass her, even if she is really sick, it is just a minor illness, and she will be fine soon. But E-Niang really misses you, I can't wait for you to return to E-Niang immediately, besides, all the tea leaves of E-Niang have been used up, and I can't take it out again. β
Hongzhan wrung the corners of his clothes and thought for a while, then nodded a little reluctantly: "Then the minister will tell his aunt when he goes back, it's just ...... Eniang, if Erchen returns to you, can I still go to see my aunt? β
The corners of Liu's eyes twitched slightly, and he immediately agreed with a smile, "Naturally." Okay, it's not early, you hurry up and go back with the cuckoo, don't forget what Eniang said to you. β
Hongzhan nodded solemnly and said: "E-niang, don't worry, Erchen will definitely listen to you tonight, and ask your aunt for a good life." β
After the cuckoo left with Hongzhan, Liu took off the hypocritical smile on his face and said coldly: "What a Guarjia clan, it only took a year to hook Hongzhan's soul, if it drags on any longer, I'm afraid that Hongzhan will really call her Eniang." β
Behind him, Jin Gu pouted with a cold smile, "It's a pity that Concubine Jin is destined not to wait for that time." β
Liu slowly clenched his hands and said word by word: "Hongzhan is mine, and no one wants to take it away from me." Guerjia didn't think much of it, and actually wanted to snatch Hongzhan away, hmph, I'll let her taste the bitter fruit she planted. β
