When Mrs. Kong was in Zhejiang, she took great care of Zhu Yuan, and officially recognized Zhu Yuan as her goddaughter, Zhu Yuan has always respected Mrs. Kong, if it wasn't for the last resort, she didn't want to have any misunderstanding with Mrs. Kong.

She still doesn't know what's going on with the Kong family's case, but now that the case has become so big, Chu Tingchuan overturned the case for the Hu family before, and if she doesn't take the Du family's case this time, she can't talk about it.

Even so, it can only be understood by Mr. Kong and his wife.

Next, Su Fu and Ge solemnly listened to the message that Zhu Yuan wanted to bring to Mrs. Kong, reassuring her, and had dinner in the palace again before leaving the palace.

Zhu Yuan changed his clothes to accompany the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother was still a little strange, and glanced at Zhu Yuan with a smile: "Your aunt and aunt rarely come to the palace, why don't you stay with them for a while?" ”

"I have already invited my aunt and uncle to dinner, and they will be in a hurry to go back to Zhejiang in a few days, so I still don't delay their time, let them go home early to pack their luggage, so as not to be in a hurry when the time comes." Zhu Yuan sat next to the Queen Mother, and when he saw that the Queen Mother was reading a Buddhist scripture, he asked the Queen Mother if she wanted to fast again.

The Queen Mother shook her head, she didn't know what she was thinking, and after a while, she said, "This is sent by Concubine Gong." ”

Concubine Gong?

Zhu Yuan raised his eyebrows.

Last time, the Queen Mother had just punished Concubine Gong for copying the scriptures, and she thought that Concubine Gong would never want to touch the Buddhist scriptures again in her life.

The Queen Mother herself was also puzzled, but she didn't say sarcastically as before, but said in a rare and gentle tone: "When I was young, I didn't look like a foolish person, but I was honest and responsible, except for being timid, there was nothing else wrong, who knows that the more time passes, the more she will change the person, the mourning family really hates her, and looks down on her, after all, the management of life has to be managed, there is a saying among the people that it is just for a mother, but she is useless, she is a mother, and all difficulties are pushed to her son, how much hardship Ting Chuan has suffered for her, The mourning family can't even count......"

Aunt Weng had already taken Gong E out, and at this moment, only the Queen Mother and Zhu Yuan were left in the palace.

The hall was lit with ambergris, and the triangular incense burner carved with unicorns was smoking, and the Queen Mother sighed: "The mourning family is really a little upset and doesn't want to care about her business, but she is Tingchuan's biological mother, Tingchuan's child, don't look at him as if he is very cold, in fact, he values affection more than anyone else, if she can change it, then it's fine." ”

She said and handed the scriptures to Zhu Yuan: "It's pious, and I copied it with blood mixed with cinnabar." ”

If that's the case, that's a bit weird.

Zhu Yuan remained silent, she remembered that Concubine Gong was a person who cherished herself very much, and she was usually afraid of a small pain and illness, and she couldn't wait to eat all the useful and useless medicines, for fear that she would have something.

But now she is willing to pay such a capital!

Zhu Yuan was a little confused.

Is there really such a thing as an initiation in this world? How could she suddenly figure it out when she was so confused?

Or do you just want to regain the love of the Queen Mother and Chu Tingchuan's understanding through the matter of copying scriptures?

If you really want to guess Concubine Gong's purpose, Zhu Yuan would rather believe the latter point.

After all, Concubine Gong gave her too bad impression before.

But now Concubine Gong is really trying a lot of effort to pray for the Queen Mother's blessings, and Zhu Yuan, as a daughter-in-law, can't say anything without the slightest, so she comforted the Queen Mother a few words: "The Queen Mother is right, if she can figure it out by herself, it will be her blessing, and it will also be the blessing of His Royal Highness, don't worry, I'll go over to see the mother concubine later." ”

The Queen Mother nodded.

After serving the Queen Mother and having lunch, Zhu Yuan went to Concubine Gong's palace.

When she went, Concubine Gong was worshipping sincerely in front of a statue of Guanyin, and when she heard that she was coming, she seemed a little cramped and seemed a little uneasy, pursed her lips, and was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to say.

After a long while, she beckoned to Zhu Yuan: "Sit down, what kind of tea do you drink?" Hooded or incense? ”

Zhu Yuan has never been very harmonious with her, and he has been-for-tat before, so when the two face each other, embarrassment is inevitable, but Zhu Yuan still quickly adjusted: "I'm tired of my mother, just jasmine slices." ”

Concubine Gong hurriedly asked people to prepare, and when she saw the palace maid bringing the fruit plate, she smiled and said: "This is still sent by you, you see what you like, use some casually, I know that you are the best at cooking and making dim sum." ”

Even Emperor Jiaping was very fond of her craftsmanship.

Zhu Yuan nodded in thanks.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while, and Concubine Gong whispered after half a while: "If I did something wrong in the past, don't take it to heart, I won't interfere in your affairs in the future, and I only have Tingchuan's son, and I will rely on him after all." ”

When she said this, Zhu Yuan had nothing to ask.

It seems that Concubine Gong has really figured it out.

The two are not very familiar with each other, and the only few times they met were not very pleasant, and now Concubine Gong is interested in showing affection, but it is obviously unrealistic to say how close she can be all at once, after talking for a while, Concubine Gong can no longer find a topic, so she can only lower her eyelids and ask Zhu Yuan: "How is that kid in Tingchuan lately?" I heard that he was handling the case, but don't be too tired. ”

Zhu Yuan shook his head: "After finishing the affairs of the Hu family, the saint granted him a leave of absence to rest for a few days, but there has been a case recently, and it may not be His Royal Highness who has taken it, so there is some trouble, and the mother concubine does not have to worry." ”

Concubine Gong breathed a sigh of relief and nodded repeatedly: "That's good, you are the closest person to him, if there is anything, persuade him more, I know you are a good boy." ”

She suddenly became so reasonable, Zhu Yuan was a little unaccustomed to it, smiled and agreed, and talked to Concubine Gong for a while, before she politely refused Concubine Gong's kindness to leave her for dinner, and got up to say goodbye.

As soon as he went out, Green Yi was a little confused: "Niangniang, Concubine Gong is very different from before." ”

In the past, Concubine Gong didn't have a good face every time she saw Zhu Yuan, and she couldn't wait to let Zhu Yuan disappear, but now Concubine Gong is different.

This time, I see how kind she is to Zhu Yuan.

Zhu Yuan whispered to Hua Ying: "Go and check, see who Concubine Gong has seen, and ask the palace people in her palace to see if there is anything abnormal." ”

A person's temperament is not so easy to become.

A person who is used to being selfish will not suddenly become reasonable for no reason, Zhu Yuan always feels that there are strange things everywhere in this matter.

Hua Yuan also immediately understood what Zhu Yuan meant, and now that Zhu Yuan has taken over part of the palace affairs, she can ask the people in Concubine Gong's palace.
