Chapter 379: Her name is Mei Niang
Er'an Ya and the two of them are old, Lu Zhong was a little relieved, feeling that the two of you have a chat, and the brothers are a little similar, and they both belong to the kind of people who are very good at seizing opportunities.
Needless to say, the palace maid is simply the kind of person who must be caught in her hand as long as she has the opportunity, whether she can catch it or not, it is up to the people to make things happen, and it is up to the sky to make things happen, but this kind of spirit is commendable.
And Xu Jingzong is the same, he sees the opportunity, doesn't care if the opportunity is good or not, and then grabs it first.
It's like running to Xitai in the middle of the night, he doesn't know why Wang Ping'an is here at night, but he feels that this may be an opportunity, so regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, he will come next!
If you have an opportunity, you would rather catch it by mistake than let it go!
Wang Ping'an leaned his hand closer to the small copper furnace. I thought to myself, "These two people are so quick-witted. But she was not appreciated by the emperor, and a stupid character like Sister Wu could become the empress. It's just unreasonable! Well, there are a lot of unreasonable things in the world, and it's not bad for this one! ”
After thinking for a while, he lay down with his clothes. I'm going to stare at it for a while.
But when the net lay down, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and the palace maid came back, she stood outside the house, tapped her ear lightly, and asked, "Lord Wang." Lying down? ”
Wang Ping'an didn't sit up, and said loudly, indicating that he was asleep and should not disturb him again.
The maid heard the snoring, but refused to leave. His voice raised slightly, and he said, "Lord Wang, I was in a hurry to find a stove for Lord Xu just now, and I was in a hurry, and I forgot to take the charcoal bucket, can the slave come in and get it?" ”
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "Forgot to take it? Then go freezing, Lord Xu has rough skin and thick meat, and he is not afraid of freezing! He still refused to get up, and his snoring grew louder.
Seeing that Wang Ping'an ignored him, the palace maid said again: "Lord Wang, be careful when you sleep, there are many rats in this Xitai Be careful that they bite you in the middle of the night, and the slave maid has a method, I wanted to tell you." If you sleep, the slave will not talk about it! ”
Wang Ping'an scolded secretly, this pass is sold, I can't think of it! He sat up and said, "I was asleep, but I was woken up by you, come in and get the bucket!" ”
As soon as the door opened, the palace maid walked in softly, and when she entered the house and lifted the charcoal bucket, she said, "Lord Wang, the best way to deal with mice is," she suddenly coughed, obviously deliberate, just waiting for Wang Ping'an to ask.
Then ask, Wang Ping'an doesn't like such things as mice. "What's the best way," he asked. ”
The palace maid suddenly showed a naughty look and said with a smile: "The best way is to find a cat, both male and female!" With that, he picked up the charcoal bucket and left, closing the door with his hand!
Wang Ping'an snorted and couldn't help laughing, this palace maid is very interesting, if she is a person of this era, she does not have the explosive amount of knowledge in later generations, but like a character in the early Tang Dynasty, she only lives in a relatively closed society. I haven't seen too many people and things, so this palace maid will be quite pleasing to him, maybe she will really be entangled by her!
Wang Ping'an lay down again, but he couldn't help but be a little worried in his heart, could it be that there are really a lot of rats in Xitai? I didn't know last night, so I could sleep, but tonight I knew, and if I wanted to fall asleep, it wouldn't be easy, and I couldn't help but prick up my ears to listen!
After a few more moments, there were footsteps outside. Listening to the voice is Xu Jingzong's. Wang Ping'an is so annoying, this is endless, could it be that he also knows that there are many mice in Xitai, so he can't sleep and wants to chat with me?
Xu Jingzong came to the door, knocked lightly, and said, "Lord Wang, are you sleeping?" "It is estimated that the palace maid left, and he stayed fine, so he came to Wang Ping'an to grind his teeth.
Wang Ping'an had no choice but to sit up again, he couldn't sleep anyway, so deal with it, he couldn't cut Lord Xu's face, this Lord Xu was not broad-minded, it was nothing to offend a gentleman, and if he offended such a villain, there would be endless troubles. He said, "Not yet, Lord Xu, please come in!" ”
Xu Jingzong pushed the door in and said with a smile: "Lord Wang, why haven't you slept yet, but you have something on your mind, let's tell the old man!" ”
Wang Ping'an laughed a few times, he must have thought that a person of my age couldn't hide words in his stomach. As soon as he talks to me, I will lose a lot of words, and he will be able to get some valuable news!
He put on a smile and said, "Where?" I was already asleep, but I was woken up by the palace maid, and I couldn't sleep anymore. Lord Xu, you say, that palace maid is not angry. No eyesight at all! "I added in my heart, you don't have the eyesight to price!
Xu Jingzong came to him, sat down, and said, "Isn't it, that little woman has no eyesight, and the old man doesn't look down on her!" Following Wang Ping'an's words, he said. But then he said: "But to be honest, this is in the palace." But it's a hidden dragon and a phoenix, let's not talk about the hidden dragon, that's a taboo. It can be said that this is the mortal
He laughed twice, and said with a dirty face: "Tonight can really be regarded as a phoenix, I saw two phoenixes together!" ”
Wang Ping'an sighed, pretended to be surprised, looked at the window, and said, "In the middle of the night, a phoenix is flying?" Is the phoenix male, or is the phoenix male? I can't figure it out! ”
Xu Jingzong twitched the corners of his mouth and thought, "You foolish!" You want to drive me away, don't you? I'm not leaving. Don't get a word out of your mouth. Hmph, you don't want to sleep tonight! ”
Xu Jingzong said: "You might as well count the phoenix as a mother, male or female, what does it matter." Lord Wang. Guess who the little woman who just came is the descendant? ”
Wang Ping'an thought for a while, and said solemnly: "Whose descendant is she?" Well, if my guess is correct, it must be a descendant of her ancestors! ”
Xu Jingzong sighed, you guessed so accurately, you didn't guess wrong at all! He slapped his hands and said with a smile: "The prince is the prince, no matter what, as long as you guess, you will definitely be able to guess, isn't she the descendant of her ancestors!" This little woman is actually the former prime minister of Sui, and her father is also the founding hero of this dynasty! ”
Wang Ping'an smiled and thought, "After the prime minister of the former Sui? Isn't it remarkable? I also have a pro-authority relationship with Emperor Sui Chang, and by the way, I also have a little relationship with the current emperor! ”
He nodded and said, "It turned out to be from a famous family." But seeing that she is not young, how can she still be only a catty. Lady-in-waiting? ”
Xu Jingzong sighed and said, "She was not a palace maid before, she was a very favored talent, a concubine of the fifth grade." It's just that I don't know why I fell out of favor,"
Speaking of this, he suddenly thought about it, and his eyes kept rolling, not knowing what the hell he was thinking.
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "That palace maid used to be a talented person, it seems that there are a lot of talented people in this palace." If you see one at random, it's someone, it's too worthless! ”
After waiting for a while, Xu Jingzong still didn't speak, and Wang Ping'an had to ask, "You didn't ask her why she lost her favor?" ”
Xu Jingzong sighed and said: "The first time we met, she was from the palace, the old man was a foreign minister, how could she listen to those!" He paused, and said a little strangely: "Lord Wang, don't you think this thing is a little strange, a talented person who was once righteous and fanned, was sharpened and became a palace maid." But she can still be removed from the Huangchuan River in the Ganlu Palace, and she is trusted by the general manager of Shi Da to send her here to send you charcoal, according to common sense, this is unlikely! ”
Wang Ping'an nodded and said, "It's a little strange." The concubines who have fallen out of favor should not be able to see the emperor, so how can they serve in the Manna Palace? Otherwise, Lord Xu, you go back and think about it, and when you figure it out, you will tell me? ”
Xu Jingzong hummed and stood up. I wanted to get out. Suddenly, he reacted, sat down again, and said, "Lord Wang, you are driving the old man away!" If you say anything, the old man will leave right now! ”
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "You are really thick-skinned, if you say this, how can I drive you away again!" He hurriedly said: "No, no, I definitely don't mean this, the two of us are talking about Xingtouer, how can I, even if I am not Xingtouer, I can't drive you away, Lord Xu, you are too sensitive, you misunderstood me."
This is not good, this is not good! He turned his face down and pretended to be angry!
Xu Jingzong said with a smile: "The old man also thinks the same, the prince and the old man hit it off at first sight, good friends, how can you drive me away, it's not enough to have a long talk!" ”
Wang Ping'an was helpless, so he had to say: "This palace maid is really strange, I don't know why she, a person who has fallen out of favor, can still stay in the Manna Palace, and she is so trusted by the general manager of Shi." ”
Xu Jingzong said in a low voice: "What do you think of Mr. Shi, is he quite scheming, he can see people accurately."
"Well, yes, Mr. Shi has an extremely accurate eye for people." Wang Ping'an followed his words. Chatting, is it just grinding your teeth, you follow my words, I follow your words!
Xu Jingzong said: "The functions of the palace maids are all taken care of by various stewards, and Chief Manager Shi is the first official in the palace, if he takes special care of someone." That shows who hasn't really fallen out of favor. That palace maid must have only caused the emperor's displeasure for a while, in fact, the emperor still likes her very much, and sooner or later he has to make her a concubine again, and the chief manager of Shi knows the truth, so he deliberately arranged for her to stay in the Ganlu Palace, so that she can meet the emperor from time to time. In this way, if she becomes a concubine in the future, she will be grateful to Mr. Shi,"
He analyzed it, and an expression of understanding appeared on his face, and there was a faint joy.
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "Isn't it just burning the cold stove, is it possible that you also want to burn it, you still obediently burn Sister Wu's cold stove, you must burn it vigorously!" ”
Wang Ping'an nodded and said: "I see, it seems that if you have the opportunity to see that palace maid again, you have to have a good relationship with her!" ”
"Who's to say it's not." Don't misunderstand, as ministers, if we don't talk to the people in the palace, try not to talk, so as not to make others suspicious. Now that the world is declining, many people have dirty thoughts and all kinds of dirty thoughts. It's hard to prevent it! Xu Jingzong had the expression of an elder on his face, and spoke seriously to Wang Ping'an.
Wang Ping'an thought in his heart: "You can talk about yourself." I think you're filthy enough! He nodded and said, "What Lord Xu said is very reasonable!" "Talking. He yawned, not pretending, he was indeed a little sleepy.
Seeing this, Xu Jingzong knew that he couldn't talk about these useless things, and he had to talk about business, so he asked, "Lord Wang, why did you stay in Xitai for two nights in a row?" Let's talk about digging out the heart, is there someone in the palace who is sick, in case there is an emergency, so that you can take care of it nearby at night? ”
It is no wonder that Xu Jing Zongda in the future, if a person thinks hard about it, then there is really nothing to do about it, and he can't figure it out. He said that Wang Ping'an guessed everything, but in fact, his own ability is not necessarily that bad!
Wang Ping'an frowned, why did he stay here, the real reason was that he couldn't tell him. But if you make up a random reason, you can beat him away, but he will definitely continue to guess, and even ask others, and the matter may get bigger and bigger. This kind of thing has to be guarded against!
What's the reason for that? Pregnant. Didn't the crown princess have a relationship with herself, and recognized her cousin and cousin, so she used this!
Wang Ping'an looked mysterious, showing an expression that he wanted to say but didn't want to say, and hung Xu Jingzong's appetite to the ground! Xu Jingzong leaned his head over and waited anxiously for Wang Ping'an to speak.
Wang Ping'an said: "Brother Xu, we are good friends, I won't hide it from you, just tell you, you must not tell others" Forget it, or don't say it!" ”
Xu Jingzong hurriedly said: "Don't worry, what does Brother Wang have to say." You've got to talk to my brother. It's okay for me to make preparations in advance, brother! ”
Wang Ping'an thought about it solemnly, he stood up, pulled his shoes, came to the door, opened the door and looked outside, closed the door again, and then came back, lowered his voice, and said: "Brother Xu, you don't know yet, the crown princess of the East Palace is my cousin!" ”
Xu Jingzong took a breath and said, "Brother Wang, you actually have such a good family. The crown princess is the future queen, and you are the uncle of the country! ”
Wang Ping'an sighed and said, "Let's talk about the future later, but now there is a big trouble." ”
Xu Jingzong asked, "What's the trouble?" ”
Wang Ping'an lowered his voice again, and said: "A few days ago, there was a concubine in the East Palace who was sick, thinking that she was going to give birth to a son, let me go and heal, the relationship between this concubine and my cousin is a bit like that", Lord Xu understands! ”
Xu Jingzong hurriedly said: "Understood, understood." Not to mention the palace, it's the old man's house, it's not the same! ”
Wang Ping'an sighed and said, "As a result, I made that concubine's belly smaller!" He deliberately slurred his words.
Xu Jingzong is a bag to inquire, some time ago in the East Palace, he also heard a little, but he didn't know very much, now listening to Wang Ping'an, he thought that this was a palace fight, and Wang Ping'an helped his cousin, "The means are ruthless enough!"
Wang Ping'an said: "I will stay in the palace for the past two days, and it will make other concubines in the East Palace suspicious, so I have to stay here. ”
He only made up a reason that could not be verified, and the important result, he didn't say a word clearly, so Xu Jingzong wanted to go!
Xu Jingzong's thoughts turned sharply in his heart, how should this matter work, Gong Dou is good, as long as someone is willing to fight, he can fish in troubled waters. I'll have to go back and think about it! I think I've got useful information. He didn't want to waste time here, and after a few gossips, he took his leave!
When he was about to go out, he suddenly thought, everyone has told me the secret, I have to tell them something, although my news is worthless, but something is better than nothing, he turned around and said: "If Brother Wang, you come back tomorrow and see that palace maid." It's nothing to have a good relationship with her, anyway, it's just a little palace maid. By the way, her name is Mei Niang! ”
