Chapter 274, the head of the sect came to the door

It turned out that during the visit last month, because Zeng Rong entered the inner chamberlain, he told Zeng Hua that he could not come to the palace to see her again in the future, and could only wait for her to have a chance to go out of the palace to see her again.

She didn't want her eldest sister to be embarrassed, and she didn't want to owe the Xu family favors.

Xu Jing was very unhappy when he heard this, but because Zeng Rong was on the side, he didn't say anything.

Fortunately, Zeng Rong did not agree to Zeng Hua returning to the countryside, but Zeng Rong proposed to buy a house and bring his brothers from the countryside, so that Zeng Hua would not have to be fostered in Xufu.

Zeng Hua already missed his relatives at home, and he was overjoyed when he heard this, but Xu Jing was unhappy again.

After returning that day, Yang learned that his son accompanied Zeng Hua into the palace to visit Zeng Rong, and said a few words about his son, and Xu Jing immediately had an argument with his mother.

When Yang saw that his son was like this, he didn't care about anything else, discussed it with his husband, and forcibly sent his son to the academy outside the city.

"Eldest sister, I really didn't mean that much to Xu Gongzi, and I didn't provoke him, you must believe me. Oh, no, Xu Gongzi didn't mean that to me, he just regarded me as his savior, and said that he promised the eldest sister to take care of me, but the eldest lady had too much heart. Zeng Hua tried his best to clear up his relationship with Xu Jing.

"Okay, you don't have to explain, the eldest sister believes you, how the Xu family is the Xu family's own business, when the eldest sister buys a house and takes the eldest brother and second brother over, you move out of the Xu family, and the eldest lady will naturally be suspicious." Zeng Rong touched Zeng Hua's head again.

She understood the intention behind her sister's desperate denial, the problem was that she really didn't need this kind of matchmaking.

In fact, as early as when she was reborn, she realized that they were impossible in this life, not to mention the age and identity gap between the two, in terms of experience and experience, the two could not empathize.

But after all, Xu Jing has been her husband for ten years, and the two grew up together as childhood sweethearts in their previous lives, and the parting of this relationship is not something that can be done overnight, so she repeatedly cried in front of him.

With the decrease in the number of times the two have met, and with Zeng Rong entering the palace, she has gradually let go of Xu Jing, but she still has an obsession in her heart, this man died too unjustly in the last life, and she also died too miserably, in this life, she must protect him thoroughly.

That's all, nothing else.

Early the next morning, Zeng Rong combined his silver taels with the silver taels in Ah Hua's hand, and carried the small box into the old lady's upper room.

Half an hour later, Zeng Rong boarded the carriage at the door of Xu's house with two packages, returned to the inner three institutes, put down the things first, Zeng Rong picked up four ham dumplings and more than a dozen Qingtuanzi went to the pharmacopoeia bureau to sell the fake, before he had time to tell Cui Yuanhua about the raw materials of this Qingtuanzi, the pharmacopoeia bureau came in with a person who looked like an aunt in charge and four eunuchs.

Cui Yuanhua recognized this person as the aunt in charge of the queen's side, surnamed Fang, called Fang Yuying, the most iron-faced and selfless and upright person, and this person came with four eunuchs, Cui Yuanhua instinctively chuckled, and immediately looked at Zeng Rong.

Although Zeng Rong looked ignorant, when he saw the other party's serious black face and impeccable walking and standing posture, he panicked inexplicably, and felt very bad.

After glancing at Cui Yuanhua, without waiting for Zeng Rong to ask, the other party spoke first, and sure enough, the tone was not ordinary majestic and cold.

"You are Zeng Rong?"

"Yes, dare to ask you...

"Zeng is in charge, this aunt is the head of the sect, the aunt of the queen's side, and is in charge of the interrogation and punishment of erring female officials." Cui Yuanhua said busily.

"Wronged female officer? Me? Zeng Rong thought about it, what mistake did she make?

No, isn't she the inner warden? Even if he made a mistake, he should be punished by the inner chamberlain, how could it be someone from Kunning Palace?

"Someone just reported to Kunning Palace, saying that you left the palace without authorization, did not return all night, and brought a bunch of unknown things back to the palace from outside the palace, and violated three palace rules and should be punished."

"Hui Fang Zhangjiao, Xiaguan left the palace yesterday with the permission of the emperor, which Aunt Cui and the emperor can testify, as for the unknown things you said, it should refer to these foods, which are also within the scope of the palace rules, how can you say that it is prohibited?" Zeng Rong argued.

"Yes, Fang Zhangjiao, Zeng Zhangjiao did ask for leave when he went out, blame me for this, I forgot that the emperor allowed her to take a whole day off and didn't report it." Cui Yuanhua blamed himself.

Zeng Rong also knew that female officials who took leave for more than one day need to be reported level by level, that is to say, Cui Yuanhua should apply for Zeng Rong's leave to Liu Neishou or other internal servants of the internal guard, and register it in the register after getting permission, and the time of leaving the palace and returning to the palace must be strictly indicated.

This Fang Zhangjiao obviously went to the inner prison to check first, and did not see Zeng Rong's leave registration, so he went directly to the Pharmacopoeia Bureau to get people.

Therefore, Cui Yuanhua's explanation cannot be used as testimony at all, at least in the eyes of this Fang Zhangjiao, she only recognizes the registration in the leave book of the inner guard.

"I can't say this, if Cui Zhangshi has something to say, you can go with Zeng Zhangshi to see the queen with me, but before that, we need to go to Zeng Zhangshi's residence to check it."

"It's fine." Although Zeng Rong was reluctant, he had to agree.

But before going out, she glanced at Du Juan, and I don't know if Du Juan can think of going to Qianning Palace to find the emperor, no matter how bad it is, it will be successful to find Chang Dezi.

Zeng Rong led everyone into his room, and when he opened the door, he happened to meet Zheng Jiao, Zheng Jiao knew Fang Zhangjiao, and saw that Zeng Rong did not return overnight but came back with the Fang Zhangjiao of Kunning Palace, and quickly guessed that Zeng Rongzhun had made a mistake.

"What's wrong?" Zheng Jiao asked.

Zeng Rong smiled bitterly, "I took leave of the palace to the emperor yesterday, and I forgot to register with the inner chamberlain, and I brought some hometown flavor food from home, they said it was an unknown object, by the way, you are also from the south, I have a Qingtuanzi here, do you eat?" ”

"Qingtuanzi, is it a Qingtuanzi made of wormwood? I'll eat it. Zheng Jiao ignored Fang Zhangjiao's cold eyes, pushed Zeng Rong into the house, saw the zongzi on the table, first smelled a smell of ham, and hurriedly asked, "This is a ham zongzi?" ”

"Yes, you can take two, and I'll give the rest to the Queen Mother to taste." Zeng Rong said deliberately.

"Not bad, not bad, interesting enough." Zheng Jiao said as she picked up the scissors on the table and cut two zongzi first, then opened the oiled paper bag next to her, pinched the Qingtuan inside and was still a little hot, hurriedly pinched a corner, and put it in her mouth in front of everyone to eat.

"Fang Zhangjiao, why don't you have a taste?" Zeng Rong asked.

Fang Zhangjiao ignored her, searched in Zeng Rong's house, and saw that in addition to these two foods, there were also packets of things that looked like ginger slices and were not ginger slices, and Fang Zhangjiao asked people to take them away, saying that they wanted to present them to the queen and hand them over to the queen for decision.
