Not to mention that Zeng Rong couldn't figure out why the Queen Mother didn't choose her, even Qin Chuxue didn't figure out this question, but there was one thing, Qin Chuxue guessed that this matter was mostly related to her master.

The Queen Mother's temperament has always been more stubborn, not to mention that she sits in that position again, usually only others compromise with her, how can she compromise with others?

But there is an exception to everything, Zhu Heng is the exception in the queen mother's heart, the queen mother has been heartbroken about this grandson over the years, and this grandson does not appreciate it, resulting in the relationship between their ancestors and grandchildren over the years is also very delicate, not near and far, not hateful, not painful and scolding, and can only be angry with the people around Zhu Heng.

And the root cause of all this is naturally because of the conspiracy ten years ago, since losing those legs, Zhu Heng has drawn the ground as a prison, closed himself, refused to be approached and courted by anyone, and his original gentle temperament gradually became irritable, and the direct consequence of this irritability was to hurt himself like a trapped beast.

The Queen Mother saw it in her eyes and felt pain in her heart, for fear that it would backfire if she forced this grandson, so she had to let him mess around with his temperament, so that he could slowly recognize the reality and adapt to all this, and this process was also a torment for the Queen Mother.

Fortunately, this situation seems to be improving at present, on the first day of the new year, Zhu Hengda was forced to live in Cining Palace by the Queen Mother, but he didn't see him move out after he got well, although he didn't come out to see people in Cining Palace, most of the time he still locked himself in the house or hid in the back garden, but at least he accepted the Queen Mother, and would accompany the Queen Mother to have a meal and talk or something.

Therefore, it is impossible for Zhu Heng's mind to be unclear, otherwise she would not rashly send out the pair of peony flowers, therefore, Qin Chuxue suspected that Zhu Heng himself took the initiative to give up Zeng Rong, and the reason for this may be related to his own disability, or it may be related to the person in front of him.

"By the way, Ah Rong, you tell me the truth, have you met the Second Highness before?" Qin Chuxue also had a bunch of questions in her heart.

It doesn't make sense that his master would have a big change in personality because of a stranger, and he actually overcame his own obstacles and ran to attend a rally, which is definitely the first time in the world.

It is said that the entire harem was frightened by him, especially some people, who even suspected that he had been disguising himself all these years, pretending to be a pitiful appearance, no, he seized the opportunity to fight back fiercely.

After all, there were too many outsiders present that day, and they were the family members of some important ministers of the DPRK and China, can they not be overly sensitive to this matter?

Just imagine, the rumors outside the palace about the eldest son of the former grandson had a hidden illness and could not be shown, but people just appeared in plain sight, and also wrote a couplet to draw a picture, who said that people have hidden diseases, it is clearly a clear disease, except for being bad at work, I can't see anything else at all.

Therefore, Qin Chuxue can guess without inquiring, not only are there rumors about the eldest son of the royal concubine in the capital, but I am afraid that the court will not be quiet, but it is a pity that she has no connections around her and cannot hear these news.

From this point of view, Qin Chuxue should really be grateful to Zeng Rong.

"I..." Zeng Rong hesitated for a moment, "I've seen it twice." ”

The two times in her mouth referred to the one in the back garden of Cining Palace, and the other time on the city wall, and she did not admit it on Chinese New Year's Eve, because she was not sure whether Zhu Heng was denying her and did not want to make extraneous branches.

"The city walls? Which city wall? Qin Chuxue asked.

They searched the entire harem but didn't find it, but Zeng Rong easily met by chance, if she said that the two were not fated, she wouldn't believe it.

"What did you talk about?"

Zeng Rong recalled it carefully, and there was nothing to hide, so he roughly retold the conversation between the two.

"Auntie, I didn't think much about it at the time, I was afraid that he would be willful and cause you and Amei to be punished again, so he spoke a little rushed, he shouldn't blame me, right?"

"You mean, there's something you want to do in particular?" Qin Chuxue found the answer.

Zeng Rong nodded, but refused to tell the other party what it was.

She can't explain it, this involves her past and present life, how can it be explained?

"Auntie, don't worry, I promised you to protect him with you. By the way, there is also Amei, Amei is wholeheartedly devoted to the Second Highness, and the three of us will definitely be able to protect him. ”

These words made Qin Chuxue successfully think crookedly, "Amei? Could it be that you refused because of Ame? ”

"Ahem." Zeng Rong didn't expect the other party to be so direct, and his little face suddenly turned red, "Auntie, you think too much, how old am I, I really want to do something." ”

"It's up to you." Qin Chuxue sighed faintly.

Things are already like this, it won't help to say anything, perhaps, Zeng Rong's entry into the inner prison is not a bad thing, at least she is by the emperor's side, and she can help her master hide from some people's dark pits or something.

When she came back from Qin Chuxue, the little sisters in the dormitory were talking and laughing around Green Lotus, and Zeng Rong learned that Green Lotus was assigned to the Medicine Division of Shangshi Palace and failed to enter Yaohua Palace.

"It's better for us Ah Rong, we can see the emperor every day in the future, we have been here for so long, not to mention the emperor, we haven't even seen a mother." Soon someone surrounded Zeng Rong, obviously, these people knew from Lu He's mouth that she was going to enter the inner prison, how could they not envy her?

"It's a pity, if only I had studied with you earlier." Hongling stepped forward and grabbed Zeng Rong and said.

She fell in love with Zeng Rong when she saw Zeng Rong for the first time, but unfortunately later because Zeng Rong and Green Lotus had an awkward quarrel, she was caught in the middle, and the two separated.

"It's a pity, I'll give you the books I don't use when I go back, and I'll give you a little pen and paper, and you will practice hard yourself, and strive to pass the exam next time." Compared with green lotus, Zeng Rong also prefers red ling.

"Oh, great, we can all follow the books and read in the future." Someone cheered.

"Stop, don't get too happy, think about how old you are this year." Dafen poured cold water on everyone in a timely manner, instantly extinguishing everyone's smiles.

"Okay, don't envy us, it's not bad to stay out of the palace and reunite with your family for a few years." Zeng Rong comforted.

This topic has succeeded in diverting everyone's attention, and everyone is talking about their parents and families.

Zeng Rong didn't participate in this topic, returned to his bunk and began to pack up his things, the bedding boxes could not be taken away, but there were a lot of clothes and books, she didn't have enough packages, so she could only borrow two boxes to pack the things and send them back.

After such a toss, the time has come.

Zeng Rong really didn't feel sleepy this night.

Thinking back to her rebirth to the present, it took her a year and two months to walk from that small mountain village to the capital, into the palace, and now she is going to the emperor's side, she always has a sense of unreality, is this step too fast?

What will greet her in front of her?
