Chapter Twenty-Eight: Stability in the Aftermath

Lu Qingjin was secretly happy because he found the chili pepper all night, but he didn't expect to hear what Concubine Li had taken leave when he got up in the morning, and he couldn't react for a while: "Why did she suddenly take leave with me, and I don't usually see them come to ask for peace!" ”

While dressing and grooming her, Cai Wei said a little proudly: "Niangniang doesn't know, the slave maid heard when she got up this morning that this Concubine Li's loss of honor in front of the emperor has been grounded, and it is just to say that it is just to have a passing scene for face." ”

Lu Qingjin's mind was full of today's chili peppers, and he didn't have the heart to tell her about this for a while, but Cai Wei was obviously unsatisfied: "The slave maid also heard that Concubine Li was locked up because she charmed the emperor, and I think it was because the emperor was obsessed with Niangniang that he was not successful, and now everyone in the palace knows that the emperor is different from Niangniang." ”

Lu Qingjin twitched the corners of her mouth and didn't know how to evaluate her successful sentence, but fortunately, Cai Wei also knew that it was not too early and didn't say anything, Lu Qingjin was thinking about going to his vegetable garden after breakfast, but he didn't expect to see a few reluctant concubines before he walked out of the door of the dormitory.

She looked at Cai Wei, and Cai Wei remembered that she was busy gossiping and had forgotten about it, so she hurriedly covered her mouth with a handkerchief and whispered: "It's nothing, you are the queen mother, and they are all here to ask for peace." ”

Lu Qingjin said in his heart that I had been a queen for a month before I knew that there was such a rule, and he didn't show it on his face, but he just said plainly: "Sisters, don't be polite, it's too early now, let's go back to the palace for dinner!" ”

Several concubines were waiting for this sentence, and when they heard the polite words of the words, they hurriedly left, and Lu Qingjin also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this: "Fortunately, it's okay to leave, let's go to dinner quickly!" I have to come here in the morning. ”

Cai Wei seemed to be very happy that her master was treated like this, she helped Lu Qingjin to the dining room and reminded: "Niangniang is different now, you can't shut up and it's me, you should call yourself this palace, this is the most noble position in the palace." ”

Lu Qingjin didn't want to be disappointed when she looked happy, but she didn't like this title very much in her heart, obviously she was the bloodline of Emperor Yan, but now she was fine, but because an emperor in the palace competed with other women for favor.

Thinking that she hastily ate a few bites of food and didn't say anything, Cai Wei saw that she was a little unhappy and didn't say much, and the two walked silently all the way to the direction of the vegetable garden.

"Have you heard? That Concubine Li was grounded, or because of the Queen Mother. ”

The little palace maid next to her was a little disdainful when she heard this eunuch's babbling: "I heard about it last night, if you want me to say that this queen is really powerful, I heard that Concubine Li's legs were blistered when she came out, and I don't know how to get it." ”

Another little palace maid said indifferently: "You don't care how she got it, who else in this palace is more favored than the queen mother!" I didn't think that she was really sitting in the back seat. ”

Lu Qingjin listened to the gossip in front of her with a bad face, and Cai Wei hurriedly turned around and scolded when she saw this: "You are idle and have nothing to do, you dare to arrange the queen mother!" ”

Seeing this, several little palace maids were already frightened, kneeling on the ground trembling, Lu Qingjin breathed in the fresh morning air and waved his hand helplessly: "Forget Caiwei, we still have to go to the vegetable garden!" It's not good if it's late, as for these people, let them go back to their palaces! ”

Cai Wei glared at them fiercely before following Lu Qingjin away, she looked at Lu Qingjin's not very good face and was a little worried: "Don't you like those people to say that?" But these words are good for you. ”

Lu Qingjin looked at the little girl next to her and smiled: "It's not that I don't like it, I just think it's a little bad, these have nothing to do with me, and I don't care very much, but Concubine Li is different, how can she stand it as a daughter of a wealthy family, and in the end, if something happens, we will also be responsible." ”

Cai Wei still didn't quite understand, but this didn't prevent her from feeling that her master was soft and kind-hearted: "How can the master live in the palace like this!" ”

Lu Qingjin was stunned for a moment before she remembered that she had arrived in a different place, she was used to modern civilization, and she was a little uncomfortable for a while to this kind of ancient palace fighting that did not take life and death as a thing.

The two of them were thinking about each other, when they heard a flattering voice from a eunuch: "The queen is here, the slave is the head of the internal affairs office, I heard that the mother likes this vegetable garden very much, so the slave brought some precious varieties, hoping that the mother will appreciate her face." ”

As soon as Lu Qingjin was interested in seeds, he couldn't care about anything else at the moment, and hurriedly said, "What variety did you bring?" Take it out and take a look. ”

The eunuch hurriedly took out a box from behind him: "This is brought back by various countries, and the slave doesn't know it for a while, Niangniang will see if there is anything you like, and the slave will go to search for some and come back." ”

Cai Wei took the box and handed it to Lu Qingjin: "Presumably my father-in-law didn't just come to deliver things, if you have anything to say, just say it while the queen is in a good mood!" ”

The eunuch hurriedly lowered his head and smiled: "I really can't hide anything from the girl, this is indeed a tricky matter, I hope the queen mother will give you some advice." ”

After Lu Qingjin opened it, he found that it was some millet black beans and the like, the varieties were not bad, and he was in a good mood at the moment: "You just say, if there is anything that this palace can help, you must not refuse." ”

The eunuch raised his head and made a bitter gourd face: "The general trivial things really dare not work the queen's mother, this matter is really helpless, you must know that since His Majesty ascended the throne, there is nothing in the treasury, and the Internal Affairs Office does not have much subsidies, but the ladies of the palaces are really too expensive, and the former Internal Affairs Office has no way to get brocade." ”

Cai Wei interrupted him and said viciously: "What, you want to get it out of the queen's palace?" You must know that we have not heard of the Ministry of Internal Affairs coming to send things since we entered the palace, and all that we have in the palace are our own things, what do you mean now. ”

The eunuch seemed to be frightened, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "It's really not!" The slave knew that he didn't care about the queen's mother and deserved to die, but this time there was really no way to urge the ladies of the palace, and the slave also hoped that the queen would reprimand her, which was also a helpless move! ”

Lu Qingjin waved his hand to signal Cai Wei not to be in such a hurry: "You should know that this palace doesn't have any rights, why did you come to me?" The eunuch raised his head and said anxiously: "Everyone in this palace knows that the queen is deeply favored, how can she not have rights!" I only hope that the mother will save the minions. ”
