Chapter 020: Confused Things
Zhang Chi has never been Zhang Xi's opponent in terms of scheming, and when he heard this, he nodded and said, "Okay!" I'm going to tell my mother. ”
After all, since his mother brought his sister into the house, it is not once or twice that the younger sister and the younger sister are jealous, and he, the third brother who is always forced to arbitrate by the two in private, is even more suffering.
Although in recent years, the two of them have been able to get along politely as they get older, but the girl's family, I don't know when, because of the sesame mung bean bigger thing, she will be temperamental and temperant.
In order not to relive the nightmare of his childhood, he still took this trip himself!
Zhang Chi, who thought he knew his two younger sisters well, strode towards the main courtyard.
Zhang Xi watched Zhang Chi leave and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
When the British duchess learned of this, she was shocked, and she had to call Ming Yi over and ask Zhang Chi to explain the matter in person.
Ming Yi originally thought that Zhang Xi had personally gone to the Huang family to apologize, and she also copied the "Female Commandment" for a few days, and even the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces did not condemn her, so this matter was over. I never thought that the emperor would always remember it!
Immediately shocked, where can I still complain about Zhang Chi's complaint.
When she came back to it afterwards, she couldn't help but add another layer of dissatisfaction after Zhang Chi "didn't save her" and "taught her seriously" last time.
That's for later.
……
Let's say that after the emperor returned to the palace, he first went to the queen mother of the two palaces to ask for peace, and then buried himself in the imperial study to approve the fold.
Empress Dowager Li called Feng Lin, sat upright and asked solemnly, "What did Your Majesty do when he left the palace today?" ”
Feng Lin bowed down and explained the things he encountered, the people he saw, and what he said and did along the way from the time he stepped out of the Qianqing Palace.
Empress Dowager Li has always been strict with the emperor, and she has always had a clear grasp of his words and deeds, and they have long been accustomed to serving him closely.
After hearing this, Empress Dowager Li's face was slightly gloomy, and she frowned and asked, "The third son of the British prince personally ordered by His Majesty to accompany him?" Did you also see the concubine of the British duke? ”
"Back to the Queen Mother, that's exactly the case." Feng Lin replied respectfully, "However, Your Majesty only glanced at Miss Zhang from a distance, and did not show up. ”
When Empress Dowager Li heard this, her face was slightly relaxed.
Since the founding of this dynasty, from the queen to the selection of ladies, few have come from high-ranking dignitaries. Therefore, the Spring Festival party prepared for the last candidate for the future, she will be relieved to hand over to the British government to handle - according to the usual practice, the British government, which is the founding meritorious service, is not qualified to send a woman to the palace as a concubine.
Thinking about it, the emperor grew up in the palace since he was a child, and after succeeding to the throne at the age of ten, he studied hard day and night, diligent and self-denying, and was surrounded by palace maids in addition to the inner servants, even the children of the clan rarely voted for the deed. And the third son of the British prince heard that he was a frank person, and he was only less than two years older than the emperor, perhaps because of the Spring Festival party, he happened to be in the eyes of the emperor, and this time he was ordered by the emperor to accompany him again, and it may not be said.
However, after all, the immediate aftermath is very involved, and it must not be overlooked.
It seems that she has to pay close attention to this concubine of the British duke.
Empress Dowager Li sighed and raised her hand to tap her forehead.
Seeing this, Feng Lin bowed in silence and quietly retreated.
Exiting the palace gate, Feng Lin hurriedly turned to the imperial study.
The little chamberlain guarding the door saw Feng Lin and hurriedly bowed down to say goodbye.
Feng Lin waved his hand and motioned for them to be silenced.
When he got closer, Feng Lin asked in a low voice, "Is Your Majesty still reviewing the recital?" ”
The little chamberlain whispered back, "Yes." Father-in-law Feng has been with his old man. ”
Feng Lin nodded, looked at the closed door of the hall, and commanded in a low voice: "I'll go to the teahouse first and wait, if Your Majesty has a summons, come and inform me immediately." ”
The little waiter complied.
Feng Lin turned to the tea room next to him.
When the palace people who watched the tea saw Feng Lin coming, they all hurriedly got up to say goodbye.
Feng Lin nodded, found a chair, and lay on it comfortably, with his own palace people serving tea.
About two quarters of an hour later, the little chamberlain guarding the door hurriedly came in and replied respectfully: "Father-in-law Xiao Feng, Your Majesty ordered to change the tea." ”
Feng Lin immediately jumped up, straightened his clothes, took the tea prepared by the palace people, bowed his head and went to the imperial study.
"Feng Daban has worked hard, it's better to rest." When the young emperor saw Feng Lin coming in, he smiled at Feng Yongting, the eunuch who was over forty years old and had a pale face.
Feng Yongting glanced at Feng Lin without a trace, bowed and said goodbye: "Thank you, Your Majesty is compassionate, and the minister will retire." ”
With that, he bowed and withdrew.
The young Tianzi nodded with a smile and watched Feng Yongting leave the imperial study.
When the door of the palace was closed, the young Son of Heaven immediately stood up and asked Feng Lin urgently: "You didn't say that I left the palace to find a birthday gift for the queen mother, did you?" ”
He was also in too much of a hurry to review the recitals, and he forgot to tell Feng Lin.
Feng Lin hurriedly bowed and replied: "Your Majesty's filial piety can be learned from heaven and earth, this time specially for the queen mother's birthday, go out of the palace to find rare things as a birthday gift, to give the mother a surprise, slave An dare to say a word?"
"Therefore, when the Queen Mother asked about things outside the palace, the slave and maid only replied to observe the people's feelings."
In order to avoid the suspicion of Empress Dowager Li, he even deliberately hid the paper kite of "Haiyan River Clear".
The young Tianzi nodded with satisfaction and rewarded Feng Lin with a plate of fruit.
Turning his head, Feng Lin took this plate of fruit to his godfather Feng Yongting.
"Godfather still owes you that little food?" Feng Yongting glanced at the plate of fruit and scolded with a smile, "Take it back and chew it yourself!" ”
Feng Lin smiled and said flatteringly: "Thank you godfather for your love!" ”
Feng Yongting laughed for a while, and asked slowly and methodically with a sharp voice: "Have you reported to the Queen Mother about Your Majesty's departure from the palace today?" ”
Feng Lin hurriedly replied: "It's almost all reported." ”
Feng Yongting stared at Feng Lin and said, "Almost?" ”
Feng Lin immediately sneered and said, "Isn't this the right word that he hasn't gotten his godfather, and his son doesn't dare to make his own decisions?" ”
"Foolish thing!" Feng Yongting's face immediately changed, and he scolded sharply, "Don't slap your mouth yet!" ”
Feng Lin was stunned for a moment, and knelt on the ground with a thud, but his hands seemed to have automatically and spontaneously received the order, and he slapped his mouth.
One time, palm to flesh, dare not have the slightest slip.
After hitting more than a dozen times in a row, Feng Yongting said unhurriedly: "Okay." ”
Feng Lin hurriedly stopped, put on a red and swollen face, and said with a flattering smile: "My son doesn't know what is wrong, and I ask my godfather for advice." ”
The hand was too heavy just now, and the corners of his mouth were swollen, and his speech was a little slurred at this time.
Feng Yongting snorted coldly, glanced at Feng Lin coldly, took a fruit and turned it in his hand, and said with a smile: "It seems that you have recently gained face in front of Your Majesty, and you have forgotten who you are?" ”
"Son doesn't dare!" Feng Lin immediately smiled and fell to the ground.
"Humph!" Feng Yongting snorted coldly and slammed the fruit in his hand on the ground.
Smack-
In the silence of the room, the sound of a cold snort and the fruit falling to the ground was particularly harsh.
Feng Lin's heart trembled, and the whole person fell lower, like a cicada in the autumn wind, trembling.
