One Hundred Chapters: Golden Branch
And Zhu Yuan, who inexplicably became the reason for the dispute between Qi and Princess Yongchang, didn't know that she had just gotten off the carriage at this time, and followed the steps of Gong E who came out of the Queen Mother's palace to go to the Queen Mother's Palace.
Summoned on the day of Laba, Zhu Yuan really couldn't figure out what the Queen Mother meant, and he was a little worried in his heart.
No matter how capable she is, what she says is ugly is just a fox and a fake tiger, and she borrowed the power of Emperor Jiaping and the Queen Mother, and if the Queen Mother and Emperor Jiaping were dissatisfied with her, it would really be a matter of raising her hand and pinching an ant to death.
Obviously, she had already given the method of curing the Empress Dowager's head stroke to Imperial Physician Hu, and the Empress Dowager seemed to have deep feelings for her mother Fu, why did she summon her to the palace when she knew that the emperor did not want to see her?
Even if it was for the last time she entered the palace to detoxify Chu Tingchuan, she didn't need it, right?
She couldn't understand it for a while, and when she saw that it was no longer Aunt Weng who came to pick her up, she didn't plan to ask more, and only followed Gong'e in front of her with her head down.
But after walking out of a section, several palace maids in front of them knelt down and bowed down and said that Her Royal Highness the princess was a thousand years old, and the scene was spectacular.
Zhu Yuan estimated in his heart, it should not be far from the Queen Mother's Palace, and now Her Royal Highness the princess should have just come out of the Queen Mother's Palace, she did not delay, and then knelt down to meet the princess.
Emperor Jiaping had a lot more sons than the first emperor, but his daughters were about the same as the first emperor, and there were only four princesses in total, and one of them died, so there were only three left.
He has always been pampered by princesses, and the lives of several princesses are much more comfortable than the daughters of the first emperor, but I don't know which one he bumped into this time.
But she soon knew, because from the top of her head came a soft snort, and the woman's characteristic arrogance also sounded with a three-point cute voice: "Who are you?" ”
Zhu Yuan hung his head, looked at the front and replied without humility or arrogance: "Back to Your Highness, courtier Zhu Yuan." ”
There was no response from the top of his head for a long time, Zhu Yuan sighed in his heart, and he had already guessed which princess he had met---- I was afraid that it was the Jing'an princess who was the most favored by Emperor Jiaping now.
She thought that there should be another entanglement, but she didn't expect Princess Jing'an to be silent for a long time, and finally just brushed her coldly and turned away.
The palace maids hurriedly got up and led Zhu Yuan into the Empress Dowager's palace.
Aunt Weng was on the edge of the pillar outside the hall and didn't know what to say to the eunuch in charge, when she saw her, she smiled slightly and beckoned to her, letting the palace maids retreat, and then asked her: "Princess Jing'an just went out, have you met her?" ”
Zhu Yuan nodded and said that he had met.
Aunt Weng glanced her up and down, and saw that there was nothing unusual about her, so she put her mind at ease for a while: "I thought that the two of you had met, no matter what, there would always be a story, and I was about to go out to take a look, but fortunately, there was no dispute." ”
She smiled and led Zhu Yuan up the steps, and said, "Since Her Royal Highness Fifth is sick, the princess is not very happy, you see her, although you avoid it." ”
There is a deep meaning in this statement.
Obviously, the illness of the five princes was caused by Princess Jing'an, and then in order to exonerate her, Emperor Jiaping also reprimanded the five princes and relieved him of the Yunnan rebellion, but in the end, it was Princess Jing'an who was unhappy.
Needless to say, between the emperor and the queen, of course, the emperor is partial to his precious daughter, but the queen is obviously more partial to the son she raised.
Emperor Jiaping and Empress Wei have been fighting for half their lives, if you make my son unhappy, I will make your daughter unhappy, think about it and know that Princess Jing'an came to the Queen Mother's palace to ask for peace before, and she should have been reprimanded.
Zhu Yuan's heart was clear, and he couldn't help but feel surprised for a while---- since Princess Jing'an was still reprimanded in the Queen Mother's palace and felt wronged, why was she indifferent when she met her?
She clearly sensed Princess Jing'an's anger at that moment, but Princess Jing'an didn't say anything in the end.
This can't be said to be jealous of the Queen Mother or Empress Wei----- if she is really jealous of these two, the last thing she should do is to move the five princes, but she even dares to move the five princes.
couldn't figure it out, Zhu Yuan didn't think about it anymore, and waited until he entered the palace of the queen mother, and saw the queen mother sitting on the phoenix throne at a glance, first stunned, and then respectfully kowtowed to the queen mother on the futon arranged by the palace maid.
The Queen Mother looked a little tired, as if she was seriously ill, and her face was not very good-looking, but when she saw her coming, she still smiled and bowed her head, softly asked her to get up, and said: "Originally, I was going to announce that you came in, and the last time Tingchuan happened, thanks to you." ”
She likes Zhu Yuan very much.
During that difficult time, she was accompanied by Fu's family, and at that time, Fu's family also looked at the current Zhu Yuan, who was young, with delicate but simple eyebrows and eyes, which made her feel both relieved and warm.
It was not easy to survive during that time, the concubine was good at spoiling, she was struggling with her son, and she was worried about how to protect herself and her children every day, only Fu's family, she was still so young at that time, but she was always with her------ the same as Aunt Weng.
The Queen Mother closed her eyes.
When people get older, they love to remember the past, since she saw Zhu Yuan, her memory of Fu in her heart has become clearer and deeper, seeing this girl, it is like seeing her mother through the past and those troubles, and during that time, she was silent for a moment, called Zhu Yuan not far from her, looked at her through the steps, and suddenly asked her: "I heard that you plan to open your own restaurant outside?" ”
Zhu Yuan was a little surprised, and didn't understand why the Queen Mother cared about such a trivial matter, but he still nodded respectfully: "I want to try my best." ”
A haggard smile appeared on the Queen Mother's face: "Your mother also had some talent in cooking in the past, but you followed her in everything....."
As he was talking, Aunt Weng, who had not followed into the hall before, led a column of palace maids into the hall and reported softly to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, it's time for you to eat." ”
Zhu Yuan was even more surprised.
The meals in the palace are almost fixed, no matter which meal it is now, it is very strange, why does the Queen Mother have to eat at this time?
Sure enough, the Queen Mother shook her head, frowned, and said: "Withdraw, so that the emperor doesn't have to bother, his body is like this, and he is like this when he is old." ”
Zhu Yuan remembered the pale face he saw when he entered the door before, and suddenly realized that the Queen Mother should be not in good health, so it affected his appetite.
But the Queen Mother didn't let her help treat the disease just now, she hesitated for a while, not knowing whether she should take the initiative to show the Queen Mother, and heard Aunt Weng anxiously persuade the Queen Mother: "This can't be done, you only used a little ...... yesterday"
