Chapter 062: Acting
The autumn breeze is clear, the autumn moon is bright, the fallen leaves gather and disperse, the jackdaws perch on the panic, and the deep mountains shine on the deep autumn rain.
Every year in the golden autumn rainy season, the atmosphere of the Yongshou Hall is a little dignified and weird. The queen mother was even more unwell and mentally exhausted, and refused the concubines who wanted to go to invite An to see her every day, but she allowed the queen to accompany her.
Because the birthdays of the emperor and the queen are close to each other, and they are newly married, they set up a banquet in the palace on the same day to celebrate the birthday of the emperor and queen. Due to the empress dowager's physical discomfort, the scale of the palace banquet was not large, and only officials above the third rank of the court were invited, and Mrs. Hu was ordered to attend the banquet.
Only Mrs. Zhengyipin, the wife of the Hou Mansion of the Xie family, the grandmother of the Hou Ye Xie, is old and frail, and she has occasionally felt cold recently, so it is inconvenient to go to the banquet.
Because the emperor and the marquis were concerned about their mother's health, the palace banquet ended soon. Nothing new or special happened.
The red hall, the red carpet, the red curtain, the golden painting, the golden tassel, and the incense that fills the hall of eternal life are faint and bitter incense.
After the palace banquet, Zhao Sizhuo and Taifu went straight to the imperial study, as if they had something important to discuss. Ye Zhiqiu didn't have time to remove the phoenix crown in the palace, so he rushed to the queen mother's palace first and did his filial piety for the emperor.
Although she still suspected in her heart that it might have something to do with her back then, before the truth was clarified, she only regarded the Queen Mother as a nominal mother-in-law in her heart. Filial piety and kung fu on face still have to be done, after all, whether it is his identity or his face.
Only in this way will her own life in the palace be better. So as not to be immersed in some kind of emotion all day long.
And again....... She needs the opportunity to get close to the Queen Mother and explore the truth of the year, as well as ........ Why is the Queen Mother haunted by nightmares on rainy nights in autumn? Got a ghost in your heart? Or is there a sense of guilt?
Thinking of this, she bowed her head slightly, lowered the look in her eyes, and when she raised her head, her face was calm as usual, she reached out to take the medicine handed over by Su Yun, and was about to feed the Queen Mother with her own hands, Lin Xuanyi looked at her, thoughtful in her eyes, and finally smiled, and reached out to take the decoction: "The mourning family is not terminally ill, and it is still possible to drink the medicine by yourself." It is enough for the queen to have this heart. ”
Su Yun on the side also continued: "Yes, the queen mother's phoenix crown has not been removed yet, so she hurried to the queen mother's palace." It's really heartfelt. Then he said to Cuizhu on the side in a reproachful tone: "You, you are also the old man in the palace." I don't know how to serve the queen well, this phoenix crown is in the clouds, and the queen mother walks all the way to the queen mother's palace, I don't know how uncomfortable it is! ”
Cuizhu didn't argue, and answered honestly: "It's the slave maid who is not good for the errand, and the queen mother is in a hurry to see the queen mother, so she doesn't have time to go back to the palace to change her clothes first." ”
"Don't do this next time, go back to the palace and change your clothes, and the mourning family can afford to wait." Lin Xuanyi drank the decoction in his hand, handed it to Su Yun, and said to Ye Zhiqiu.
"Yes, Queen Mother, the concubine remembered."
"Let's go~ Today's palace banquet, you are also tired, and the mourning family should be sleepy after taking the decoction."
"The concubine is on the side to accompany the mother-in-waiting."
Lin Xuanyi's eyebrows beat a few times, and she looked at Ye Zhiqiu, who was dressed in a queen's formal dress in front of her, and looked like an old man between her eyebrows........ I only felt that my head hurt a little more, and waved my hand impatiently, "Go back to the palace and rest, the mourning family is not used to being accompanied." ”
Seeing that the refusal was obvious, she couldn't afford to die, so she had to retire.
Seeing them leaving, Su Yun said distressedly: "Queen Mother, why do you bother? Now that I see that the queen is more serious about your heart disease, why do you still allow the queen to serve you every day, isn't this adding to your blockage?! ”
"You don't understand....... I made a mother's heart. ”
"Slaves don't understand ........."
"The mourning family has been looking at the queen for the past few days, and the more they look at it, the more they feel: This is a good boy. is not in vain Zhuo'er's heart for her. In the past few days, the mourning family just wants to see if the problem lies with His Majesty or the Queen. ”
"Queen Mother, you are inspecting the queen's mother, this slave knows. But the emperor has a lot of heart for the queen, and if there are any 'problems', the slave and maid can't understand it at all. ”
"It's okay if you don't understand, then according to the words of the mourning family, you just do it." Lin Xuanyi had secretly made a decision in her heart, she didn't have the kung fu, let alone the patience, waiting for the emperor and the queen to have a turnaround. Simply....... She's here to help, to help the fire. "You go to the Tai Hospital to find the envoy Cheng to diagnose the pulse of peace for the mourning family. Remember to tell him: Bring what the mourners said last time. ”
"What's that?"
"You don't have to know. The original words were told to the envoy of the Cheng Academy, that is, he knew what to do. ”
"Yes, Queen Mother."

Fengchen Palace, Ye Zhiqiu wore a purple gold Zhai Fengzhu crown and a red palace dress, with a calm and graceful bearing. The delicate makeup is matched with rouge, the eyes are bright and the teeth are bright, and the beautiful posture is more graceful and luxurious.
Lijuan and Cuizhu took off the heavy phoenix crown for her, waited for her to freshen up and rest, and then retreated to the compartment next to the East Warm Pavilion.
A dark shadow fell silently beside the bed, as if it appeared out of thin air, and no one noticed the guards outside the hall or the palace people outside the door.
"Shadow Er knocks to see the master."
"What did the second son say?" She sat up, dressed in profane clothes, but she did not shy away from it. Because Yingwei grew up watching her in the Ye family since she was a child, her eyes would not look directly at her.
"Shadow Four Returns: The Second Prince is unwilling to leave with him."
She asked Ying Wei to go to Huainan and persuade Ye Ruochen to return to the Ye family in Qinghe, with the protection of his grandfather, he would be safe and sound. But in fact, she knew in her heart that Ye Ruochen might not be willing to listen to her obediently. At this point, no matter what he wants to do, how to protect him is what she should consider.
Thinking of the expressions of the Taifu and the emperor after today's banquet, she was stunned and asked, "Can the news reach Beijing?" ”
"King Huainan is trying his best to suppress the news, except for us, no one else should know about it."
She breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, "How long can you hide it?" ”
"Huainan Assassin Shi is a powerful character, if he notices that there is something strange in Huainan Palace, and sends someone to pay attention to the investigation, the whereabouts of the second prince are only afraid....... Can't hide it. ”
"He has investigated and confirmed, and then he will write a chapter and report to Beijing urgently, how many days will it be at the earliest?"
"Three to five days, no more than ten days at the latest."
"Got it, you follow the plan, be careful."
"Master..... One more thing. ”
"Huh?"
"The second prince said: The princess is pregnant, and she misses you very much."
Ye Zhiqiu was slightly stunned, remembering that the last time he saw Xie Wan, it was when they left Beijing in a family of four.
She was bitter in her heart, Xie Wan was now
"Three to five days, no more than ten days at the latest."
