Chapter 228: The Imperial Front
"Your Majesty, you drink a cup of tea and moisten your throat, the Queen Mother said about you last time, don't look at the excerpts all day."
Li Quan took the tea from the palace maid and handed it to the emperor, these palace maids, probably only Li Quan can persuade the emperor like this.
"You are not the queen mother, and you dare to educate me like this." The emperor said this, but in fact, he also took the tea, tasted it, the temperature was suitable, and the fragrance of the tea was overflowing: "The people who make tea have improved." ”
"This is the tea made by the new palace maid from the Heart Cultivation Palace, if the emperor likes it, the slave will let her be in charge."
"Oh? There's a new person again, you see the person, don't be like the last time, always thinking about climbing into the bed of the Heart Cultivation Palace. The emperor didn't care very much, and said casually, after all, although there are always so many people serving in the Heart Cultivation Palace, they will also be appropriately updated, except for a few big palace maids, such as Qiu Shi and others, this is also for the emperor's safety.
"Hey, the emperor, it was the slave who didn't notice it for a while, so he offended the emperor, and the slave is called a sharp-eyed on weekdays." Li Quan said with a smile on his face.
"What's your name?"
"The maid of the tea palace is named Yinlan."
The emperor's hand holding the teacup paused lightly, obviously very familiar with the name: "Yinlan? Didn't Xuan promise the personal palace maid beside her before, Yinlan?"
"The emperor has a good memory, it's her."
"Why was she transferred to the Heart Cultivation Palace?" The emperor was displeased, probably because Yinlan was serving a deceased concubine before, and she was a personal palace maid, and she was very loyal to her duties, Xuan promised to fall to such a point, and it was also related to the emperor, and the emperor would naturally worry about his safety.
"The slave knows that the emperor will not like it, but it is really because Yinlan is a clever girl and has superb skills in making tea, so the slave let Yinlan stay without permission, but the emperor can rest assured, the things you have said are all checked by the slave and other subordinates in advance, there will be no problem, if the emperor still doesn't like it, the slave will send her away." Li Quan spoke very skillfully, and only after reassuring the emperor did he say that he would send her away.
The emperor was not so careful, put down the teacup and said: "No need, you finally found a good one to make tea, if you send it again, it will be in vain for your hard work." ”
"Look at what the emperor said, it is the honor of a slave to be able to bother for the emperor."
Hua Ying naturally won't stuff people directly to the emperor, Yinlan asked Xuan to agree to love not only because of the love that grew up together, but also because Yinlan's tea art is exquisite, Xuan promised to like to drink tea and taste tea when she has nothing to do, since this is the case, Hua Ying simply informed the grandmother who chose the person, saying that she has a palace maid here who wants to go to the Heart Cultivation Palace, but whether she can really enter the Heart Cultivation Palace to serve, or depends on her own ability, she will help here, otherwise if the emperor is suspicious at that time, Hua Ying will have to deal with it.
Yinlan is indeed a person with two brushes, and soon became a third-class palace maid in the Palace of Heart Cultivation, and she is only responsible for making tea for the emperor on weekdays.
"Master, you have made Lan Yu's investigation clear, Zhao Yu's parents were indeed wronged, but now the county government still hasn't found out the cause of death of those two people."
"How did you get wronged?"
"According to Niangniang's instructions, the second master went to see it in person, and the gang got up carefully, and investigated for a few more days before replying that the dishes and other ingredients sold by Zhao Yu's parents to the restaurant were only drugged on the part that was used as evidence, and you think, these dishes and fruits must have to be cleaned, how can they be so strong and harmful to people's lives, so someone must be able to frame them, but the reason for this, the slave maid does not know."
"It is estimated that even the second brother can't find out the reason for this." Hua Ying didn't expect that there were so many things involved: "Since the second brother has gone, they don't dare to tell the truth, then the people behind it must be stronger than the Burhaqi family, or evenly matched, they don't dare to investigate carefully or dare not tell others the truth, and in the end, they may end the case hastily." ”
"As soon as Niangniang said this, the slave maid remembered that the second master did mention it, saying that the two people who died must have offended people who should not be offended, so they were killed, this is simply a premeditated case, not an accident." If it is really an accident, most of the powerful people will spend some money to eliminate the disaster, how can they find a scapegoat, this time it is the reputation of the Burhaqi family that has suppressed them, and those officials don't want to provoke them easily, otherwise Zhao Yu's parents would have been confessed a long time ago.
Hua Ying nodded, took the brush handed to her by Qingxu, and spread out the rice paper, preparing to write a letter to her home, this matter is too involved, Hua Ying wants to help people to the end, but she can't be reckless, she can't help but think in her heart, how can two ordinary people who can no longer be ordinary offend such a powerful person: "This palace wants to see what conspiracy there is, since you can't find out the person behind it, let's see if the two people who were killed have offended anyone." ”
"Master, since you saved Aunt Zhao Yu's parents, this matter has nothing to do with us, so why bother with this matter?" Lan Yu kept Hua Ying's letter and waited for the opportunity to send it out of the palace, but she still didn't understand.
"Whether this incident happened in the capital, it may affect Amma, and this palace thinks that it is better to find out if it can be found out." If the person behind this is found out, the Burhaqi family is estimated to be able to make a contribution, and it is not harmful to themselves now, but it is just something that takes some thought, and Hua Ying is willing to do it.
"The master has foresight, unlike Lan Yu, a girl who looks at immediate interests all day long." Qingxu smiled and grinded for Hua Ying: "By the way, master, when you took a nap yesterday, the emperor came up, and the slave said that you were sleeping, but the emperor still insisted on coming in, saying that he wanted to see you, and then went to see the sixth princess, and then left, it seems that the recent government affairs are also very busy." ”
"The emperor will be like this all the time, and this palace is used to it." Hua Ying is used to hearing this kind of news now, and she was surprised before, but now she responded very calmly: "The emperor has been like this for the past few days, and he hasn't entered the harem a few times last month." ”
"Yes, the emperor has come to the harem a total of four times, doesn't the queen mother sigh every month?" Hui Xin will also say a few words of gossip at this time: "The slaves and maids all remember clearly, and in these four times, two of them came to the main hall of our Jingyang Palace, but I don't know what tricks that Fei noble person used, and the emperor even went to see her once." ”
"The Fei nobles used to take the road of learning the style of the mother, and the slave said that the Fei nobles must not go far in this way, but now they have their own style."
"No matter what they do, as long as they don't come to provoke this palace, this palace will not embarrass her." Fei Gui. The days of people in Jingyang Palace are much happier than the days when Shun nobles were in the territory of the Fucha clan in Changchun Palace, and when she came to the main hall to ask for peace, Hua Ying never felt sorry for her once, and the conversation between the two was only superficial, and Hua Ying didn't bother to mock her or say anything.
"Niangniang, the sixth princess has woken up and is clamoring to see you." Although the six princesses can't speak, but now the grandmothers also understand the body language of the six princesses, anyway, crying and screaming is to see their own mother, on the contrary, when they are uncomfortable, they are not so intense.
Hua Ying just wanted to say that she should bring the sixth princess over, but she heard Xiaofuzi report outside: "Master, the Tang Gul clan Yan nobleman outside, Zhong Chang is here, and Hui promised to ask to see him." ”
"What day is it, and why are the three of them here?" These three people are the new concubines who entered the palace last year, Hua Ying doesn't know very well, and has never said a few words, but now they are together, she is a little strange in her heart: "Forget it, let them come in, and bring the sixth princess over, otherwise she should lose her temper again." ”
"The concubine asks Concubine Yun to say goodbye, Concubine Yun is auspicious."
"Excuse me, why do you have time to come to Jingyang Palace today." Hua Ying teased Wen Hua's hand and said to them, "How are you doing these days?"
Among the three, Yan Guiren has the highest position, so she is the first to reply, this Yan Guiren has a relationship with Hua Ying, but Yan Guiren was only ten years old at the time, I'm afraid I don't remember: "Back to Concubine Yun's words, it's ashamed to say that since the three concubines entered the palace, they haven't come to see Concubine Yun Niangniang, so today I came to ask Concubine Yun Niangniang, hoping not to disturb the mother-daughter time between Concubine Yun and the six princesses." ”
"Of course not, Wen Hua likes to be lively, she is looking at you, children at this age are very curious about everything." Hua Ying looked at them as if they were honest people, and she was not too defensive: "If you like the sixth princess, you can also come to Jingyang Palace often." ”
"Why do you keep bothering the mother." It was Zhong Changzai's turn to speak, but it was indeed as the queen said, Zhong Changzai's tone was a little more refreshing: "But the sixth princess of Niangniang is indeed cute, and the concubine is also happy when she looks at it, at the last New Year's banquet, the fifth elder brother is also very generous, and he is not stage frightened at all, which impresses the concubine, and I don't know when the concubine will be able to have such a child." ”
Yan Guiren was a little surprised when he heard what Zhong Changzai said, and looked at her twice, as if he felt that Zhong Changzai should not say that he also wanted to have a child in front of a high-ranking concubine, but Hua Ying didn't care: "You are all energetic daughters, and it is only a matter of time before you have children, but since this matter has been mentioned, this palace should also remind you to find your own reliable palace people and check the palace more often, just in case." ”
"Concubine Yun is very caring, the queen is really not wrong, but if the emperor doesn't come, even if he is healthy and young, he can't have children." Hui agreed, like a person looking forward to soaring into the sky, but he still restrained a little: "Look at the concubine's mouth, she always says things that shouldn't be said like this, Concubine Yun, don't go to your heart." ”
"No, it won't." Hua Ying smiled, whether she really said it casually or deliberately, only they knew in their hearts.
"I heard that the surname of one of Niangniang's personal palace maids and concubines is accented, I don't know which one it is?"
"Hui Xin, I've come to see Megumi promise." Hui promises' surname is a Hui word, although it is rare, but there are also some, so everyone calls her Hui promise: "But the two of you have different characters, and this palace has not changed Hui Xin's name, do you mind if you promise to promise?"
"How could it be, seeing that Miss Huixin is so down-and-out and generous, the concubine still feels that she has a fate with Miss Huixin." Megumi agrees to say this, which is a bit self-defeating.
"There's another thing I want to trouble Niangniang today."
