Chapter 121: Poke the Heart (Part II)
The transmission of news inside and outside the Da'an Palace is naturally slower, not to mention that Qing Ruxu was suddenly summoned, and when the news was sent to Jiang Rin, Qing Ruxu had already entered the Longevity Palace.
Xiong Yishan was worried about his life, and immediately jumped up: "How could Empress Chen know about the approval of the order, she must have bad intentions when she summoned Miss Qing, what should I do, son, should we go and save people?" ”
Liang Chen saw him with an excited face, and thought to himself, Are you really worried about Miss Qing?
Jiang Rin looked down at the things in his hand and his expression did not change, and said, "Even if Empress Chen knows about the approval of the order, she will not embarrass her in public." Take 10,000 steps back, even if Queen Chen can really embarrass her, there is still the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother will not look at Queen Chen. ”
Empress Dowager Weng can become a winner in the harem without a sound, and support her son to the throne, obviously not as gentle and foolish as she seems, and even sometimes, she is more ruthless than Emperor Zhaoren.
Jiang Rin thought of this, and his expression turned cold.
Xiong Yishan has never looked at his face, so he leaned over and said, revealing his trademark aunt smile: "The approval is passed out, and the people in the capital who are interested in Miss Qing are afraid that they will have to rest their minds again." In this way, no one will rob Childe! ”
How could this sound as if he couldn't grab it, Jiang Rin's expression became even colder.
Liang Chen played a round on the side and said: "Miss Qing is a clever person who will definitely be able to resolve the crisis. Even if you can't think of a way to resolve the embarrassment of the exposure of the order, with the Queen Mother here, she will follow the emperor's decision and help the eldest girl settle this matter. ”
"No matter what, since Empress Chen knows about the order, she must be secretly staring at her. Maybe they will also use others to make stumbling blocks. Jiang Rin raised his eyes and said to Xiong Yishan: "Let Bao'er pay more attention to her, and be sure to ensure her safety." Liang Chen, you go and find out in person who revealed this matter to Empress Chen. ”
The two listened to the order, and hurriedly agreed, and left the study.
Xiong Yishan grabbed Liang Chen, and asked Ai Ai, "Why does Miss Qing keep running to the palace recently?" Could it be that he has fallen in love with someone in the palace? ”
Liang Chen's face distorted: "Where did you get your whimsical ideas from?" ”。
Xiong Yishan said: "Then why has she been in the palace recently?" ”
"Aren't you accompanying the fourteenth princess!"
"What is there to accompany the fourteenth princess!"
Liang Chen was completely distorted: "How do I know! ”
Xiong Yishan scratched his head and took a step back, "If you don't know, you don't know if you are yelling, what are you yelling at......"
Liang Chen had a feeling of brain cramping, and hurriedly stepped out of the door.
………………
In the Longevity Palace, Qing Ruxu looked up slightly under the gaze of everyone, and smiled without hurrying.
I just heard that the Queen Mother was summoned, and because of the approval of the order, I was very nervous for a while. However, she has always been a bit of a quick and wise person, and she has already thought of a statement when she is on the road.
Her expression was natural, and her voice was like a spring flowing, soft and natural, without hesitation. "Master Zhiren is a high-ranking monk who can probably see through a person's life before and after. The four proverbs he gave to his courtiers, my father was very concerned, and once asked what it meant, it turned out that the first two sentences of these lives were to say that they were rich and noble during their lifetimes, and the last two sentences seemed to imply that the courtiers could prosper after their deaths, and bless future generations! ”
"Huh?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and they didn't seem to expect her to have this explanation!
But who can say otherwise?
It was originally a mysterious and mysterious order, except for Master Zhiren, I'm afraid no one can know its exact meaning, and now Qing Ruxu's explanation is reasonable, who can be sure that she is blind?
Empress Dowager Weng laughed when she heard this: "Hearing you say this, it's really a great life!" ”
Isn't it? He was rich and wealthy during his lifetime, and he can protect his children and grandchildren after death! Qing Ruxu also sighed in his heart that he could really make it up, but it was Master Zhiren who could make it up even more, he died in his early twenties in his previous life, what Yaochi Immortal Plant, what Golden Palace is the mainstay, it's all!
Qingru Xu replied with a smile: "No matter how good the courtier's life is, it is no better than the nobles in the palace, maybe it is because of the blessings accumulated in the previous life." She looked at the Empress Dowager Weng and thought to herself, if it weren't for the noble and luxurious dress, the Empress Dowager would really be as kind as her grandmother when she smiled like this.
Empress Dowager Weng seems to be particularly fond of smart and intelligent girls, everyone knows that this "approval" is not good, it can become her life-saving talisman, but she is so easy to dissolve, not only to solve the taboo, but no one will talk about it in the future, as for whether there will be people staring at it secretly, it is another matter.
The Queen Mother smiled and praised Qingru a few words, asked some parents about their shortcomings, rewarded her with a bunch of good things, and let her go.
Out of the Longevity Palace, the fourteenth princess took a long breath and said, "I didn't know that your fate had another mystery, today is really dangerous and dangerous!" ”
Qing Ruxu also temporarily held back such a statement, and now she is also afraid, and said: "The queen is afraid that she is going to target me." ”
The fourteenth princess asked in a low voice: "I only knew the first two sentences of your batch of lives, and I haven't heard of the other two sentences at all, what is going on?" ”
"It's not that what I said is too outrageous to spread to the outside world! The emperor probably sympathized with my father and kept the matter a secret. ”
The fourteenth princess raised her eyebrows: "Then someone must have deliberately leaked it to the queen mother?" Who have you offended lately? ”
Qingru Xu secretly complained, she seemed to have offended a lot of people openly and secretly, and she couldn't be sure for a while, so she shook her head: "I don't know, but today's level is over." ”
"Anyway, you still haven't shown up much recently, and I won't ask you to come to the palace, lest someone take advantage of the topic to play. If there's any news in the palace, I'll have someone tell you. ”
Of course, the fourteenth princess will not believe what Qing Ruxu said about approving her life just now, and presumably the people in the Longevity Palace will not believe it, but what Qing Ruxu said is irrefutable.
"Hmm......" Qing Ruxu nodded, resigned from the fourteenth princess with a stomach full of doubts, and went out of the palace to return home.
Originally, she often ran to the palace recently, in order to find out what happened after the abolition, but she didn't expect such a fork in the way.
It seems that she still has to start with the Chen family, but Queen Chen is not easy to mess with, unless she has to do so, she doesn't want to expose herself, so as not to bring trouble to the family, it is necessary to be careful.
Back in the house, Shizhou's tense body relaxed, "Ouch, today I have seen what I should have seen, and I have seen what I shouldn't have seen, and the slave's heart is about to jump out of my throat!" ”
Lan Zhou hurriedly asked what happened, and Shizhou told him about today's events, and Lan Zhou was surprised: "Didn't you say that when Master Zhiren said the order, only our lord and the emperor were present?" ”
Qing Ruxu shook his head: "There are always a few palace people present, although the emperor has issued a gag order, but if someone wants to inquire, he may not be able to hide it." ”
"Who is it? Would you think of deliberately inquiring about it? ”
Qing Ruxu shook her head, "Although I don't know who it is, it must be someone who doesn't like me." ”
"Is it the eleventh princess?"
Before everyone could study the fame, Jiang Rin came.
"Why are you here?" Qing Ruxu led him to sit down, instructed Lanzhou to serve tea, and asked Shizhou to serve the newly made snacks.
Jiang Rin thought to himself, his treatment was really much better than at the beginning. "When I went to the Longevity Palace today, were I embarrassed?"
"It's not embarrassing, but Queen Chen may not believe my words." For Empress Chen, this kind of thing would rather be believed than not, in case Qing Ru Xu really wants to be the fourth queen of the emperor......
Qing Ruxu felt a little speechless when she thought about it.
Jiang Rin said: "I have heard one thing about the informant. ”
Qing Ruxu looked at him in surprise, she didn't expect him to move so fast. "Do you know who it is?"
………………
Queen Chen's mood was not ordinarily bad, after Qing Ruxu left, the concubines didn't want to see Queen Chen's polite and decent smile when she faced Princess Chonghua here, so as not to be put in small shoes in the future, so they got up and retired.
Concubine Chen was blocked by the intrigue in the palace, and after coming out of the Longevity Palace, she went to Penglai Pond to sit down, but she didn't expect Concubine Hui to come over to join in the fun.
"My sister is really laid-back." Concubine Hui subconsciously stroked her lower abdomen, and greeted Concubine Chen, who was feeding koi fish by the Penglai pool, with a smile.
Although she has always been jealous of Concubine Chen, she has to admit that the other party's every move is moving, and her smile seems to be fading away, and the snow is beginning to shine. It is said that she is only five points similar to the Imperial Concubine of Respect back then, and I don't know how amazing and beautiful the Imperial Concubine of Respect is.
Concubine Chen sprinkled the fish food in her hand, startled the koi carp to jump into the water, and the water surface rippled in circles. She took the handkerchief handed over by the maid beside her and wiped her hands gently, and then turned back to look at her unhurriedly: "Sister is leisurely, pregnant with a dragon, and so far away to Penglai Pond to relax, it is time to go back to the palace to rest." ”
"I've been depressed in the palace for a long time, and I have to go out for a walk occasionally. Recently, there have been a lot of new things in the palace, and I'm a little curious. ”
"Sister is talking about Princess Chonghua?" Concubine Chen just smiled faintly, and didn't seem to care much.
"Yes, the queen's mother's proposal to send the little princess to the palace of the concubine was rejected, let her live in the Xianju Palace, and gave her the title Chonghua, which must be very important. Today in the Longevity Palace, the Queen Mother also personally determined the status of the little princess. Concubine Hui showed an inexplicable look: "Is this considered a lifting stone and hitting yourself in the foot?" ”
I'm afraid it's very itchy! Concubine Chen looked at Concubine Hui and smiled, and said without missing a trace of error: "The queen mother naturally obeys the emperor's decision, and we idlers don't know about the rest." ”
Concubine Chen thought to herself, haven't you become the queen's dogleg? Come to me again and pretend that you don't know anything?
Concubine Hui looked into the distance, her eyes flashed, and said: "The one in the cold palace is really interesting, she has hidden the little princess silently for four years, and she doesn't know what those palace people in the cold palace are eating, didn't you find out?" Let the little princess suffer in the cold palace for so long with the queen of abolition......"
Concubine Chen didn't answer when she heard this, she didn't know much about the cold palace, but about Princess Chonghua, the palace people didn't find out, or they didn't say it, it was obvious at all. She was really surprised in her heart, could it be that this abolished queen really had the power to turn over? If so, presumably Empress Chen will be in a hurry, right?
