Chapter 219: Gratitude and Reward

Bai Yanran was punished to kneel in the inner room, Concubine Shu took Tong Ruoyao away, and only Tong and Qin Ruhua were left in the front hall.

Previously, the Tong family originally only planned to send Bai Yanran and Tong Ruoyao over, but it was Concubine Shu's proposal that made her change her mind.

She doesn't take a little concubine in her eyes, but in the end, it is the person sent by her mother, and she really can't be underestimated. After thinking about it, the Tong clan summoned the Qin clan to see what kind of person he was.

Now that she calmed down and looked at it carefully, she had to admit that this woman had a beautiful appearance, even if she was placed in the harem, she was the most outstanding, and she couldn't help but think of the former Lan Guifei.

Thinking of this, the Tong family couldn't help frowning, and he didn't have a good impression of this Qin family. After being silent for a long time, Tong Shi spoke: "I heard that you used to be from Lingchuan?" ”

Qin Ruhua was already uneasy, and when she heard Tong's question, she was even more nervous, and replied with sincere fear: "If you go back to the queen's mother, the concubine's mother's family is indeed a person from Lingchuan, and it was considered a little meeting, but later the family suffered a disaster, and now only the concubine and the younger brother are left."

Fortunately, the old lady was kind enough to help her so that she would not end up on the streets. ”

The queen nodded and said lightly: "This palace did hear about this when it was not out of the pavilion before, and you are also a poor person. Now that he has found a way out, he will abide by his duty, and the rest of his life will be prosperous and rich. ”

Qin Ruhua hurriedly got up to listen to the training, and even her body trembled slightly as if she was afraid. Tong Shi thought that she had only fainted once, and knew that she couldn't help but be frightened, so she didn't say anything more.

She waved her hand, closed her eyes as if she was a little tired, and said indifferently: "Forget it, it's dull in the house, you can go out and walk around." Gu Yue, ask someone to show her the way, don't slack off. ”

Qin Ruhua seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and thanked him in a proper manner, and Gu Yue led people out to make arrangements. After a while, Aunt Gu Yue came back and silently stepped forward to change the Tong family with new tea.

Tong Shi opened his eyes, looked at the beautiful spring light outside through the half-open window, and asked, "You have always seen people, what do you think of this woman?" ”

Aunt Gu Yue has also been paying attention to Qin Ruhua, and she was not surprised to hear Tong ask at this time, but she was silent for a moment before shaking her head and said: "It seems that she is just a shallow woman who has never seen the world, but the more she hides it, the more suspicious it is, and it is a little unfathomable to look at." ”

Tong Shi also thought the same way, and sighed: "Mother has always been considered to be meticulous, naturally she will not only send a vase to such an important location, presumably in addition to beauty, there must also be her excellence." Fortunately, he is a sick seedling, even if he is favored in the future, whether he can get pregnant or not. ”

Aunt Gu Yue hesitated for a moment before she said again: "Is Niangniang really going to let the princess kneel inside for two hours?" In fact, what Concubine Shu said may not be true, you punish the princess in public like this today, if it spreads, I am afraid that the princess will lose face. ”

Tong Shi looked sarcastic on his face and said: "I naturally know Concubine Shu's temperament, one mouth is used to reversing right and wrong, and one or two points can make her ten points." I punished Princess Ann only because she lost her proportion.

The emperor has been guarding against the Tong family for many years, and the Tong family has no women with a matching family background, so I have never had a way. I can't be the master of the choice of the crown princess, but Ling Yun can still use some strength.

When I went to the emperor to ask for marriage, firstly, because I was afraid of Master Yun'an's words, and secondly, because I was afraid of my future plans. The princess's family background is low, so she will not be arbitrary, and the palace will be able to send people in the future. ”

Speaking of this, Tong's expression sank again, "But now it seems that Princess An is too smooth, and she has lost her sense of proportion." It was a good opportunity to teach her a lesson, so that she could put herself in a clear position. ”

Aunt Gu Yue wanted to speak and stopped, Tong Shi knew what she wanted to say at a glance, and said coldly: "Ling Yun is King An, and he is Cheng Yu's right-hand man, and his mind has to be spent on the front court." It is the princess's responsibility to do things in the back house, and now the concubine has entered the palace, but she has not been able to serve. Sleep, this is her dereliction of duty! ”

At this moment, a palace man suddenly came in a hurry, and when he saw Tong's family, he saluted and said: "Queen Mother, it's not good, Princess Lingxi, she ......."

Tong's heart sank when he heard the words "Oh no", and he suddenly got up and asked, "What's wrong with Lingxi?" ”

The palace people walked in a hurry, and after taking a breath, they continued with some embarrassment: "Princess Lingxi...... I'm not in a good mood, so let's go check it out. ”

Tong Shi was relieved when she heard this, she was afraid that Ling Xi would not be able to think of doing something stupid for a while, so she specially sent someone to watch in Liuli Palace. Now that I heard the news, my heart was first relieved, and then it was tight.

When they arrived in front of the Liuli Palace, the guards didn't dare to stop them anymore, and after saluting, they let them go. The Tong family entered the Liuli Palace, but the palace was deserted, only the flowers and plants in the courtyard bloomed just right, but no one appreciated it.

She only brought Aunt Gu Yue with her, and when she entered Lingxi's dormitory, she found that there was no one inside, and the girls and mothers-in-law who were waiting were nowhere to be found, only Lingxi was sitting in front of the desk in plain clothes.

Ling Xi looked at the loss of weight a lot, and his originally round face showed a somewhat sharp outline, which made Tong stunned for a while.

Ling Xi noticed the movement and raised his head, and when he saw the Tong family, he didn't panic, he got up calmly and saluted, and said lightly: "Erchen asks the queen mother to say goodbye, how is the queen mother lately?" ”

Tong Shi was still a little unable to come back to his senses for a while, subconsciously took a few steps closer, and replied in his mouth: "Everything is fine in this palace, you look at it and lose a lot of weight." ”

When I got closer to Tong, I found that Lingxi was actually copying Buddhist scriptures!

Lingxi has always been a person who can't sit still, don't say that copying Buddhist scriptures, even if she reads them, it's a laborious errand, but now she sits in front of the desk and copies Buddhist scriptures. And look at the written paper, it is by no means improvised.

Ling Xi replied with a smile: "There are thousands of sufferings in the world, but they are all things outside the body. As long as the mind is still, everything is empty. ”

Tong Shi became more and more unaccustomed to it, the smile on his face was a little reluctant, and he didn't know how to get along with him for a while. After a moment of silence, she spoke: "Nanrong's envoy has been in Beijing for a long time, and it's time to go back and resume his life." As soon as the emperor officially nodded, Nanrong immediately began to work on the regent's wedding.

If you figure it out, the queen mother will go to the emperor to intercede for you and lift the grounding. This is your last days in Dali, and you should take a walk around. ”

Ling Xi was not excited or happy when he heard this, but still said with a normal expression: "It's okay, there is a trust in my heart, and the ends of the earth are hometowns." Erchen doesn't like to go out recently, and the queen mother doesn't have to bother. ”

Tong seemed to want to say something, but he didn't say it in the end. At this time, Sang Cong's aunt came in from outside, and when she saw Tong Shi busy saluting, Tong's face sank, and asked, "How do you all do things?" The princess didn't leave anyone around to wait, how could she be so careless. ”

Aunt Sang Cong's face turned white, and she lowered her head to listen to the training without saying a word. Ling Xi said on the side: "Don't blame Aunt Sang Cong, the queen mother, I didn't let them wait by the side. Erchen was happy and quiet now, and he didn't like people waiting around him, so he sent them to the back to do things. ”

Aunt Sang Cong also looked awkward, and the Tong family couldn't stand it anymore, so she took Aunt Gu Yue out. Out of the Liuli Palace, the Tong family finally couldn't help but say to Aunt Gu Yue: "Lingxi, this girl has grown up in this palace since she was a child, and she knows her temperament, but she can't hide her thoughts. Now that it has suddenly become like this, isn't it really ruthless and can see through the red dust, right? ”

Aunt Gu Yue was also a little confused, and hesitated: "This ...... It should just be a whim, the princess has always been favored by the emperor and queen, but now that the sky has suddenly changed, it is difficult to bear it for a while, and some radical actions are understandable. ”

Tong Shi said worriedly: "I hope so, if she really sees through Hongchen and wants to take refuge in Buddhism, then it will be really troublesome." The marriage between the two countries is not a trivial matter, and one carelessness may make the two countries hostile. ”

When the two returned to Fengyi Palace, they couldn't help but stop when they saw Qin Ruhua standing at the door of the inner room and watching. Aunt Gu Yue called the people from the Wind Palace who were waiting on the side to come over and ask, "Why is the Qin family here?" ”

The palace people were the ones who followed Qin Ruhua, and replied at this moment: "Back to Aunt Gu Yue's words, the Qin family was in a hurry to come back after strolling around the small garden on the side for a while, saying that the princess was still kneeling and had no intention of playing, and wanted to come to guard the princess outside the door." ”

Tong narrowed his eyes and said lightly: "Since this is the case, then let her wait, I don't know if her body can withstand these two hours." ”

Having said that, the Tong family didn't let Bai Yanran really kneel for two hours, and asked Aunt Gu Yue to call someone over in one hour. Seeing that Bai Yanran was helped in by two equally stumbling girls, Tong opened his mouth and said, "This palace punishes you, are you not convinced?" ”

Bai Yanran replied respectfully: "The queen mother has a reason to do things, and her sons will not complain." ”

Tong's face turned slightly pale, and he said with a deep meaning: "You have always been a smart child, but you must also be careful that being smart is mistaken by being smart." Why did this palace punish you today, you know it in your heart, so this palace won't say much.

The hour is not early, Ruo Yu is afraid that she will have to stay in Concubine Shu's palace for half a day, and then let someone send her back, you can take the Qin family back first. ”

Bai Yanran responded and left with Qin Ruhua.

Until they got into the carriage, several people were silent, and Su Xin rarely became silent. The carriage was very large, and it was more spacious with two less people, and it swayed and unhurriedly to the palace.

Halfway through, Qin Ruhua couldn't help but speak: "The gilded step on the princess's head is really good-looking, and it makes the princess graceful and luxurious." ”

She broke the silence casually, but Bai Yanran looked at her meaninglessly when she heard the words and said, "Really? How about giving it to you if you like it? ”

Qin Ruhua was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said: "This is not what the concubine meant, don't misunderstand, princess." ”

Seeing that Bai Yanran had returned to an indifferent appearance, she bit her lip and said softly: "Concubine Fang Cai is really scared, she failed to intercede for the princess, and asked the princess to blame." ”

Bai Yanran looked over with a smile and said, "If it weren't for the fact that you fainted in time, you wouldn't have invited the imperial doctor, and Tong Ruoyao couldn't show her feet, then Su Xin would be in danger." Although you didn't plead, it worked much more than pleading, and I should thank you. ”

Qin Ruhua blushed with shame, and said sneeringly: "The concubine doesn't dare to bear it, the princess is torturing the concubine." ”

Bai Yanran suddenly looked straight, looked at Qin Ruhua and said, "I remember that your only brother is still working in the Tong family's Zhuangzi, although it is also a good errand, but in the end, it is far apart, and it is difficult for you sisters and brothers to see each other."

Today you helped this princess, and this princess is grateful. How about helping you go to Mrs. Tong to ask for a favor and put your brother in the mansion to do things, so that your sister and brother can be reunited, how about it? ”
