Chapter 235: The Queen Mother's Thoughts
After saying this, Shen Shu was about to order the carriage to go to the Vermilion Bird Gate-
Huai'an Wensheng suggested: "The rules in the palace are big, the girl is not familiar with the imperial city, if the girl does not dislike it, the slave is willing to enter the palace with the girl, so as not to get lost in the palace." ”
Shen Shu thought about it, this is indeed the reason.
Naturally, she would not refuse, and thanked her: "Then there will be Manager Lao Huai." ”
Seeing this, Huai'an hurriedly said: "Since the girl goes to the hospital, I am afraid that it will be inconvenient to wear women's clothes, and we also have a few sets of men's robes that girls can wear, so it is more convenient for the girl to change her clothes and enter the palace again." ”
Hearing this, Shen Shu's eyes showed a look of surprise.
Huai'an is the chief manager of the Yi Wang's Mansion and the companion of the Yi King, and it is also the right thing to think about.
But...... In this palace of the king of light, there are men's robes that she can wear......
What's going on???
Even Lu Tao, who had been sitting next to Shen Shu, couldn't help but feel a little strange when she heard this and looked at Shen Shu.
"This, this, how can it ......?"
Shen Shu really felt embarrassed, and she didn't know whether to be annoyed or ashamed for a while.
Huai'an smiled and said: "Don't think too much about the girl, when you go to Beijing first, the girl takes care of Her Royal Highness in the house, and the slave maid sees that the girl has too few clothes, so she asks His Highness to make some for the girl." Later, the girl went back in a hurry, and she didn't have time to hand it over to the girl. ”
These words made Shen Shu breathe a sigh of relief.
At the moment of major events, she knew that even if she had the imperial card given by the emperor, it was always good to be cautious when walking in the palace.
"I see. In this way, I will thank Mr. Huai first. ”
When Shen Shu entered the mansion to change clothes, Feiyun finally found an opportunity and looked at Huai'an teasingly: "You kid is telling a lie that looks like the truth, do I remember that His Royal Highness only allowed women to wear women's clothes, when did these men's robes be made?" ”
Huai'an smiled.
"When I came back from the flower banquet that day, His Royal Highness personally commanded and said...... In the future, the clothes of the four seasons, men's robes and women's clothes, will be made for Miss Shen, and he will send them over after he personally sees them, if it is not for the Shangyi Bureau to only make clothes for the nobles in the palace, I am afraid that His Royal Highness will let the Shangyi Bureau do it. ”
When Feiyun heard this, he sighed: "If you don't say this kind of thing, I won't say it, who knows?" Our Royal Highness, this is too inward-looking, how many years and months will it take to chase Miss Shen into your hands? If it doesn't work out, I'll have to think of a way, think of a way......"

In Renshou Palace.
Since the prince and Xiao Qingchu left, the queen mother knelt in front of the white jade Guanyin, twisting the Buddha beads in her hand, and there seemed to be a layer of gloom that could not be dissolved between her eyebrows.
Gonggong Tang came in from outside the hall and whispered: "Niangniang, there is news from the Taiji Palace, saying that yesterday the emperor gave the county lord of Anding a piece of waist card to walk in the palace, and also passed down the imperial decree, the county lord of Anding can enter and leave the palace freely, and the hospital is available for her to send." ”
When the Queen Mother heard this, the movements of her hands did not stop, and she seemed to smile and said: "The emperor has been sick for a long time recently, and he has become more and more willful. Didn't you say that the woman knew neither medicine nor medicine? is to give her the position of the imperial hospital, which is also smiling and generous, and it is useless, and in the end it is not up to the doctors to find a way.
Passing on the will of the mourning family, the imperial doctors concentrated on trying prescriptions for the emperor, and if they were idle, they didn't need to pay attention to them. ”
Father-in-law Tang bowed his head and said yes.
He paused, and then said, "Just now, there was news from the Vermilion Bird Gate, saying that His Royal Highness King Yi had taken the Dusk family Saburo and went to the Tai Hospital. ”
These words made the queen mother's hand tighten when she twisted the Buddha beads.
"Saburo Evening?"
She stopped what she was doing and raised her eyes in surprise: "But that Dusan Saburo who has been familiar with medical books since he was a child, and is said to have obtained the true transmission of the envoy of the Zhangyuan, but he has not returned home and entered the Tai Hospital all year round?" ”
"Exactly, it's rare that the mother still remembers him." Gonggong Tang replied: "The capital where he followed King Yi back a few days ago has now returned home. I heard that in the past two years, he has been staying in Sucheng Beiya, serving King Yi, and the emperor appointed him to enter the Tai Hospital. Twilight Saburo seems to have some friendship with the county lord of Anding. ”
The Queen Mother frowned.
"She's everywhere."
She closed her eyes, as if she was struggling with something, and after a few breaths, she raised her eyes to look at Gonggong Tang again, and suddenly asked, "When the prince came, you also saw it, what do you think of the prince?" How sincere is Qingchu? ”
When Gonggong Tang heard this, he was not surprised.
He lowered his eyes and pondered for a few breaths, and replied slowly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, since the death of the tenth prince in that year, it seems that he has grown up a lot overnight, and in the past ten years, His Royal Highness has done things steadily, and has been kind and benevolent to people, from the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty to the maids and maids of the East Palace, all of whom have praised him for his kindness.
The slave maid heard that the emperor and the queen mother gave him the people to take it for him were all serving the child soup on time. The emperor had asked His Royal Highness several times before, and His Royal Highness never mentioned the matter of accepting the crown princess.
It's just that over the years, His Royal Highness has been extremely attentive to the county lord of Qingchu, but whenever the county lord is born, His Royal Highness personally sends someone to send things to the Chengen Mansion.
Today, the slave maid saw that the prince was defending the county lord everywhere, and she must have been silently waiting for the county lord at the beginning of the day.
Other slaves and maids don't dare to say it, only this thoughtfulness, I'm afraid that except for His Royal Highness King Yi's treatment of the county lord of Anding, among the many princes, there is no one who can match it. ”
The Queen Mother frowned.
"King Yi has never been close to women, but now he finally opened his mind, although he is such a vulgar person, and it is really common to be obsessed for a while, in the final analysis, it is just young and impulsive, and he is too shallow in the affairs of men and women. How can you compare to the prince who has read countless people, knows what is good, knows what he wants, and knows how to cherish hard-won things......"
Although the Queen Mother said this to Gonggong Tang, it was more like saying it to herself.
In the end, she seemed to have figured out something, and the gloom on her face disappeared.
She lowered her eyes, looked at the Buddha beads in her hand, and said lightly: "Sick people are most afraid to go to the doctor in a hurry." These days, the emperor's health is not very good, and I am afraid that he is anxious. You go and bring the string of Buddha beads that the first emperor gave to the mourning family to concentrate and meditate, and the mourning family should go to visit the emperor in the Taiji Palace. ”

Meanwhile.
Shen Shu changed her clothes, and was accompanied by Huai'an, and used the royal waist card to enter the Vermilion Bird Gate.
Because there was no inscription on the waist card, the guards of the Vermilion Bird Gate asked for instructions for half a pillar of incense at all levels, and confirmed their identities with Huai'an next to them, and then let them enter the palace.
Huai'an grew up in the imperial city with Chu Yi since he was a child, and he is very familiar with all parts of the previous dynasty.
In order not to attract attention, he chose a secluded and uninhabited path, but in only a quarter of an hour, he arrived at the gate of the Tai Hospital.
Shen Shu followed behind Huai'an, and as soon as he stepped into the gate of the Tai Hospital, he saw a group of Tai doctors in official uniforms, with red faces and red ears, surrounded by a familiar figure.
"Nonsense! The saint is obviously suffering from wind and cold, and you young man is so arrogant that you dare to assert that the saint is poisoned just by the pulse case, what a big breath! ”
