Chapter 198: Raising Eyebrows (Part II)
The old lady sighed when she heard this, and nodded: "What you said is that things are so coincidental again...... It's a pity that Princess Hanyuan felt so uncomfortable being hurt by her mother. ”
"Fortunately, Princess Hanyuan has gradually recovered, and now she can walk on her own without the help of her maid."
The old lady patted Qingruxu's hand, "This is also the merit you have accumulated yourself." ”
"Yes, Princess Hanyuan has nothing to talk about with her granddaughter now, and the fourteenth princess, we have also made an appointment to travel together next time."
"You! is about to get married and be a housewife, and he still thinks about crazy play all day long, how can this work? ”
"Grandmother, as long as Jiang Rin has no opinion, why not?"
The old lady laughed angrily: "You just rely on Brother Rin to talk!" ”
Qing Ruxu laughed along, but thought in her heart, that ghost-like person is not easy to speak!
"The Chen family ...... this time" The old lady remembered something again, and said: "Alas, Queen Chen has six princes, in the past, the Chen family was not visible, and Queen Chen acted very low-key, and she easily did not dare to provoke major rights and wrongs, and even Concubine Hui's edge had to be avoided for a few points, and now Chen Ji has made great achievements, and Queen Chen's waist has finally straightened, I am afraid that she will open the bow left and right, govern the harem, win over her subordinates, and pave the way for the six princes......"
"Grandmother is saying that Empress Chen may be courting her father?" Qing Ruxu frowned, if she didn't know Jiang Rin's identity, Empress Chen might indeed do this, and even abandon her previous suspicions in order to win over Qing Hong and Qing Ruxu.
The old lady looked at Qing Ruxu, reached out and stroked the hair on her sideburns, and sighed lightly, "Your father is not afraid of this, after all, there is an emperor, and if you are afraid, you are afraid that Queen Chen will play other tricks." ”
"Grandmother is worried that Empress Chen will be unfavorable to her granddaughter and use her granddaughter as a threat?" Qing Ruxu finally understood what the old lady was worried about, and said: "Grandmother, don't worry, the granddaughter must be cautious and honest, and don't let Queen Chen play on the topic." ”
"That's what I said, I'm afraid I can't guard against it, tomorrow, you have to follow me into the palace to thank you."
………………
On the second day, the old lady took Qingru Xu into the palace to thank her, and the emperor was busy with political affairs and it was inconvenient to disturb him, so he went directly to the queen mother's palace.
The longevity palace burns the fragrant and ethereal Lingling incense, the Queen Mother has a head disease, often can't sleep at night, this Lingling incense is still Leng Lingyu recommended to the Queen Mother, burn one or two incense before going to bed every night, sleep peacefully, and light it on weekdays also has the effect of calming the mind.
The Queen Mother was dressed in a dark purple phoenix robe, sitting in the phoenix chair, revealing the dignity of the superior from the inside out. But when she saw Qing Ruxu coming, her eyes immediately became loving.
Qing Ruxu and the old lady bowed down to thank her, leaned over and said: "The courtier Qing Ru Xu has seen the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother is blessed and healthy." ”
When the queen mother heard this, she smiled and told her to get up, and personally stepped forward to help the old lady up, and said: "The old lady's body looks very tough, presumably everything is going well in the house, and the children and grandchildren are filial." ”
The old lady hurriedly replied: "Thanks to the Empress Dowager's mother, Hongfu, the personnel in the house are simple, and it is indeed smooth." Especially my granddaughter, who is the most filial and sensible. ”
The Queen Mother nodded with a smile, glanced at Qing Ruxu deeply, and then talked to the old lady about the shortcomings of the family and the descendants of the family. Qing Ruxu stood aside honestly, watching her nose and listening silently.
However, the Queen Mother knew that they were still going to the queen's palace, and she didn't keep them for too long, but when she left, she asked Er Rong to take a pair of bright moon bead earrings and give them to Qing Ruxu.
When he arrived at Zhengyang Palace, Qing Ruxu first noticed the changes here.
In the past, when Princess Hanyuan was still living here, she also came, and at that time, the entire Zhengyang Palace gave people an abnormal sense of duty, and they could feel it from the body of each palace maid, they always gave people a feeling of being cautious and did not dare to breathe.
But this time, Qing Ruxu obviously felt the changes in the palace people, everyone's expressions were a lot smarter, and they occasionally talked and laughed, not so lifeless, and even talked to other people in the palace, with their heads slightly raised, with a sense of superiority.
It seems that the impact of Chen Ji's contribution this time is really not small, and Queen Chen's tail is finally cocked! The entire Zhengyang Palace can be described as a chicken dog ascending to heaven.
Entering the main hall, Qing Ruxu saw Queen Chen in a red embroidered gold phoenix robe on the phoenix chair at a glance, her black hair was pulled up high, with a red treasure and a phoenix crown, and eight crested red gold steps were swayed, exuding dazzling nobility all over her body. The two little palace maids were kneeling at her feet one by one, serving her tea.
Maybe it's because she is in a good mood, Queen Chen's face is exceptionally good, she looks very ruddy and radiant, compared to the last time I saw her in Concubine Hui's palace, her spirit is more than a star and a half.
There was still a person sitting under her, dressed as a monk, and he didn't look up when he saw someone coming in, but only slightly closed his eyes and gently twisted the rosary in his hand.
When Qing Ruxu saw this person, a feeling of uneasiness rose in her heart for some reason.
The old lady took Qingru Xu Zhaoli to worship, and Queen Chen's red smile was also very real today, and it seemed that what happened in Yuxiang Palace that day was as if nothing had happened. After asking a few words as usual, Empress Chen introduced to Mrs. Qing: "This old lady must have also heard of it, and it is the Dingzhen Master of Baicui'an. ”
Dingzhen Shitai?
Qing Ruxu couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this name.
Legend has it that Master Dingzhen is too profound in Buddhism, and his reputation is on par with Master Zhiren of the Great Ci'en Temple, but compared to Master Zhiren, Master Dingzhen is too travelling all over the world, and it is not easy to see her. Even the Empress Dowager has asked her to give lectures in the palace many times, but Mrs. Dingzhen only came once. There were even many people among the people who trusted Dingzhen's words very much, and tried their best to meet her. Even when Qing Ruxu was still young, Mrs. Qing also asked to see Mrs. Dingzhen several times, wanting her to think of a way for Qing Ruxu's illness, but she couldn't find Mrs. Dingzhen.
Such a hard-to-find master, Queen Chen actually invited her?
She looked carefully at Master Dingzhen and saw that she was dressed in a plain gray robe, holding a snow-white whisk of dust between her arms. The jade face is solemn and graceful, the eyebrows are like a small moon, the eyes are like a clear pool, the ears are like hanging beads, and the face of a bodhisattva is alive.
Qingru Xu saw her gaze, and her heart trembled faintly.
The old lady on the side was also very surprised when she heard that she was Mrs. Dingzhen, and hurriedly folded her hands and said, "I have seen Mrs. Dingzhen......"
Master Dingzhen stood up, resting the dust on her arm, looking like a fairy wind and bones: "Poor Ni Dingzhen, I have seen Mrs. Qing, I have seen Miss Qing." ”
Dingzhen Shitai's eyes fell on Qing Ruxu, slightly stunned, his eyes looked up and down on Qing Ruxu's body deeply, and there was a faint hint of surprise between his eyebrows, but he didn't say anything, and sat back in place.
Empress Chen saw the door and asked, "Mrs. Dingzhen, but what do you see in Miss Qing?" Master Zhiren of the Great Mercy and Grace Temple had granted her a life before, but what about the extremely expensive life? ”
At the mention of her life, Empress Chen felt a faint feeling of discomfort in her heart, after all, as a queen, no one had ever calculated what was extremely good and expensive in her life.
"Amitabha, the eldest girl is indeed as Master Zhiren said, it is an extremely expensive life, and it is extremely expensive......" Master Dingzhen frowned slightly, and stopped talking, obviously not knowing whether to say something or not. Seeing this, Empress Chen seemed to be interested, "Master Dingzhen seems to have something to say?" ”
"In front of the mother, the poor nun dare not speak falsely."
When Empress Chen heard this, she looked at the old lady, who frowned slightly, and had some drums in her heart, obviously caring about Mrs. Dingzhen's words. Qing Ruxu was killed in danger of a catastrophe, is there any reason for this? Could it be that there is some taboo in fate? "I also hope that the true master will say it too clearly......"
Qing Ruxu listened to it and couldn't help frowning slightly.
She was originally a reborn person, and she didn't dare to disbelieve in these Shinto things, but even if Dingzhen Master was too clever, her appearance in Empress Chen's palace always made people feel weird, and they wondered if there was something strange in it. It's just that my grandmother believes in Master Dingzhen very much, and she doesn't doubt him, so she can't wait to ask, and it's too late for her to stop it.
Master Dingzhen's gaze fell on Qing Ruxu, and after a while, she stood up again and slowly walked to her.
Qing Ruxu smelled a faint sandalwood fragrance from her body, which unconsciously made people feel calm and trusting the other party. If it weren't for Empress Chen's palace, if the other party said it, presumably Qing Ruxu would have believed it very much, not to mention the grandmother and others, who respected Master Dingzhen very much.
"Amitabha, Master Zhiren's assignment for the eldest girl must have only seen the eight characters of her birthday, but did not see herself, thinking that he could see that there was another mystery in the life of the eldest girl."
Old Madam Qing was nervous for a while: "That's right, Master Zhiren really only looked at Xu Er's birthday, but didn't see her in person. ”
"Then it's over, otherwise, with Master Zhiren's cultivation, he will definitely be able to see that there is something wrong with Miss Qing's life."
"What?" Old Madam Qing's footsteps shook slightly, "Please also ask Master Dingzhen to make it clear...... What the hell happened to my granddaughter? ”
Master Dingzhen's gaze fixed on Qing Ruxu, and she was silent for a moment and said, "Miss Qing is indeed an extremely expensive character, but she ...... It's a man of two lives! ”
A man with a double life?
Everyone was puzzled when they heard this, only Qing Ruxu chuckled in her heart.
Can anyone in this world really see that she is born again?
When the Cloaked Man told her about this before, she didn't fully believe it, because the Cloaked Man wanted to use her to do something, and it was impossible to determine how true or how false it was. But this time, Dingzhen Shitai's words really made Qing Ruxu shake......
What would become of her if someone could really see that she was born again, and dissipate her reborn soul, as the Cloaked Man said? What are the consequences? She couldn't even think about it.
Qing Ruxu only felt that her heartbeat was speeding up, and her gaze at Master Dingzhen faintly revealed a trace of fear......
"The man of two lives? What does this mean? The old lady finally regained her senses and asked quickly.
