Coming out of Cining Palace, Zeng Rong was still in a trance.

Zhu Heng's arrival relieved her in time, and she didn't have to bother making up a rhetoric to deceive the Queen Mother, but his arrival also confirmed another thing, Zeng Rong's influence on him was really not small.

How good is that?

On the bright side, Zeng Rong can use him to win the attention of the queen mother and the emperor, and even gain their trust and consolidate his position in the palace.

But on the other hand, Zeng Rong didn't want to take advantage of Zhu Heng, let alone deceive his feelings, he was already pitiful enough, she was worried that she would not be able to respond to his deep affection, and would stab him a few more times in his already scarred heart, so that he would completely give up on himself when he was already loveless.

Also, if she gets too close to Zhu Heng, the woman of the imperial concubine will not let her go easily, and if she confronts her so soon, Zeng Rong will definitely die a miserable death.

But when things come to this point, is there any way out for her?

The Queen Mother has already made her words so clear, Zhu Heng is very sick, not to hide illness and avoid medical treatment, but to have nothing to love, if Zeng Rong retreats at this time, Zhu Heng really has something wrong, I am afraid that before the imperial concubine makes a move, the Queen Mother will clean her up first.

If she doesn't retreat and move forward, will she be able to get out safely?

Zeng Rong was confused, and she once again put herself in a dilemma.

Because he was holding the jewelry box rewarded by the Queen Mother, Zeng Rong did not go back to the Pharmacopoeia Bureau directly, and first went back to the residence of the Inner Third Institute.

Zheng Jiao recognized at a glance that the box in Zeng Rong's hand was rosewood, and then saw that Zeng Rong was still carrying a food box in his other hand, and guessed that Zeng Rong had sent something to the Queen Mother again, and this rosewood box must have been rewarded by the other party.

It's strange, the emperor didn't see Zeng Rong here today, only Cui Yuanhua and the palace maid named Du Juan, who was Zeng Rong sent by?

"I said, why didn't I see you come to Qianning Palace today, it turns out that I have other errands. Where did I go, and I put on new clothes, which I obviously didn't see in the morning. Zheng Jiao said as she came up to help Zeng Rong get something, so that Zeng Rong could free up his hand to get the key and open the door.

Zeng Rong gave her the food box and said, "I just went to see my sister, I want my sister to be happy, and I came back to change it." ”

After the door opened, Zeng Rong wanted to put down the jewelry box and leave, but Zheng Jiao followed, and sat down on the edge of the kang without waiting for Zeng Rong's invitation, "Have you seen your sister?" How old is your sister? Where do you stay? ”

Zeng Rong answered one by one.

"By the way, who did you just send something to?" Zheng Jiao turned the topic back again.

"Cining Palace." Zeng Rong didn't want to tell the truth, but he was afraid of arousing the other party's unwarranted suspicion.

Besides, she can't hide this matter, and she has to run to Cining Palace often in the future.

"Then this is what the Queen Mother rewarded you? Can you show me something good? Zheng Jiao looked at Zeng Rong with envy.

"I'm really sorry, Sister Zheng Jiao, there are still things to be done at the Pharmacopoeia Bureau, I have to hurry over, Aunt Cui is still waiting for me." Zeng Rong diverted the conversation.

Zheng Jiao pursed her lips and smiled, but she didn't ask any more questions, and got up to leave.

Zeng Rong, who returned to the Pharmacopoeia Bureau, saw that Cui Yuanhua and Du Juan were really waiting for her, and even left her food.

Knowing that he had to deliver medicine once at night, Cui Yuanhua twisted his eyebrows and asked, "Aren't the old people of the Queen Mother all going to bed on time when the time comes, how can you choose this time to take medicine?" ”

Zeng Rongming knew that what she really wanted to ask was who to send this medicine to, but the Queen Mother had told her that it was best not to spread this matter, it was not only Zeng Rong's reputation, but also Zhu Heng's reputation.

"It's just tonight, starting tomorrow in the morning, Chenzheng will be delivered, and Shenzheng will be sent in the afternoon." Zeng Rong explained.

"Ah, so early?" Cuckoo asked.

Chen Zheng sent medicine, which means that Mao Zheng has to get up before preparing the decoction, although the palace rules require them to also get up Mao Zheng, but they have half an hour of washing time, and they can go to work at the hour, so they can usually rub in bed for two quarters of an hour or more.

"I'll decoct the medicine, I often rush to work at the Shanggong Bureau, and I'm used to getting up early." Zeng Rong said.

"That's not necessary, you have your own work, give the decoction to Xiao Lizi and Xiao Liuzi, and let them accompany you tonight." Cui Yuanhua said.

"Thank you aunt for your understanding." Zeng Rong felt that this arrangement was not bad, and it happened that the two eunuchs also lived in the Pharmacopoeia Bureau.

"Don't thank me yet, the queen just sent someone to let you go over, she is in Qianning Palace."

"Shall I go over? Not us? Zeng Rong's eyes widened.

Cui Yuanhua gave her a roll of his eyes, "Don't you look at what time it will be?" As soon as you left, I took the cuckoo to Qianning Palace, and the queen heard that you went to Cining Palace to deliver medicine, so she must have wanted to see it for this reason. ”

"Got it." This time it was replaced by Zeng Rong, who had nothing to love.

The queen went to see the Queen Mother in the morning, and she definitely wouldn't believe that Zeng Rong was sending medicine to the Queen Mother, so she wanted to see Zeng Rong, and it was clear that she wanted to inquire about Zhu Heng, right?

No, Cui Yuanhua said that the queen heard that she went to Cining Palace to deliver medicine, and Zheng Jiao must have been there, but just now she pretended not to know, repeatedly tricked her, and pulled her to ask questions, what does it mean?

Zeng Rong, who wanted to go out again for a while, suddenly thought of one more thing, the longer she rubbed it out, the longer she spent in Cining Palace, which also meant that the longer she and Zhu Heng got along, Queen Wang was afraid that she would doubt the relationship between them even more.

Presumably Zheng Jiao also has this intention, the longer Zeng Rong delays, the more dissatisfied Queen Wang will be, and it is a trivial matter for her to be punished for kneeling.

Who are these people?

So, Zeng Rong went out in a hurry again.

It's really a disaster, she was standing at the gate of Qianning Palace, waiting for the eunuch to pass the news, the imperial concubine came out, saw Zeng Rong, the imperial concubine had a pair of beautiful eyebrows and slightly locked, swept Zeng Rong up and down, and asked: "Who will Zeng be in charge of?" ”

"Back to the imperial concubine, the lower official came to see her on the order of the queen."

"Oh, why does the Queen want to see you?" Tong Yao knew very well that Zeng Rong would come empty-handed, and Zhu Shen had also passed the time to take medicine, so Zeng Rong would not come because of recording medical records.

"Back to the imperial concubine, the lower officials don't know." Zeng Rong still bowed and replied.

Tong Yao noticed that Zeng Rong used two "lower officials" in succession, obviously he was still a "slave" in Yaohua Palace that day, but he changed his mouth in just two days, and he was "lower official" one by one.

Could it be because she changed into a women's official uniform?

Fortunately, he is still plain, and his head and body are also bare, just like when he was a palace maid before, the only thing that has changed is the hairstyle and clothes on his body.

But for some reason, looking at this girl, the nursery rhyme suddenly gave birth to some dislike.
