"Are you sure now?" She blinked.

"Well, I'm sure of ...... when you're anxiously walking in the direction of the palace with your injured leg in tow," he smiled happily.

"Well, that's good, you can rest assured that you will go to the court, if you don't leave, it will be too late." She nudged him.

He reluctantly let her go: "I really want to leave all this behind and stay with Xin'er every day......"

She smiled: "Okay, don't talk about that, you can go quickly." ”

He nodded, got up and walked out the door.

"Believe ......," she suddenly stopped him, as if she thought of something.

He stopped, and turned slowly.

"Hmm...... Xiao Ke that kid is really cute...... And his parents are also honest people, and I hope they don't have to worry about making a living. ”

"Well, Xin'er, I know what you mean, the tax ......," he replied thoughtfully, but she interrupted him abruptly.

"Taxes are your country's major affairs, I just hope that Xiao Ke can live carefree." has been in the palace for so long, she has already learned the truth that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, not to mention that she is now a saint, so she can't be criticized.

He nodded, and left.

In the afternoon, news came from the previous dynasty that the emperor decreed that the tax would be reduced to two points, and the gimmick was to pray for the child in the womb of Queen Zhou. It's just that it is always impossible to reduce the whole amount, and that would leave the treasury empty.

But she didn't expect that she would get herself into trouble by mentioning it so casually.

A few days later, the emperor had already passed the word early, saying that there was a political matter to discuss with the cabinet ministers in the Qianqing Palace today, and she would not come tonight.

She asked casually, "It's so late, what about Mama Jinyun?" ”

"Mama Jinyun was called by the queen mother for questioning in the afternoon."

Empress? Her brows tightened, for no reason, what did she ask my people?

She also shook her head, she felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't ask, so she could only wait patiently for her to come back.

When the night was getting dark, Mama Jinyun had not returned, several palace people were busy taking care of the pear tree in the courtyard, she was irritable, and ordered Qimo to move a chair to sit at the entrance of the hall, watching them water the pear tree, the pear blossoms had already fallen, and a small pear was hung on the pear tree, blowing in the wind, all shaking their heads and swinging.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Zhu Fu led the two eunuchs in, looking arrogant, and he didn't salute when he saw her, but just stood at the door and asked: "My mother-in-law Xuan Xuan went to ask the girl, and asked the girl to come with me?" ”

She frowned unconsciously, this bamboo mushroom seemed to be getting more and more rude!

But he was taken aback, and stepped forward and said, "I don't know which palace slave this is, don't you know how to salute when you see my mother?" ”

The bamboo mushroom did not salute, and shouted: "Less wordy, let's go, the queen is waiting for a question!" ”

She was startled, and immediately a sense of ominousness came straight to her heart, and she replied: "The bamboo mushroom girl should go back first, I, after serving my mother's mother, I will go to the queen's mother to say goodbye." ”

The bamboo mushroom glanced at her with slanted eyes, her face was full of disdain, and she scolded: "The dog slave who doesn't have long eyes, dare to let the queen wait for you?" ”

After scolding, he kicked over, plopped and fell to the ground, and some palace people were busy stepping forward to talk about the round, the bamboo mushroom had a black face, and waved his hand, and the two little eunuchs behind him came up, set up the basket and left.

She was so angry that her body trembled, she knew that the queen was acting openly now, and she had to endure it and keep quiet, if she came out easily, she was afraid that she would not be able to protect her recklessly, but it would hurt her even more.

Seeing that they had set up a basket and went out, a young eunuch wiped the sweat from his head and told her in a trembling voice: "Niangniang, I don't know why, I want to ask for a question." ”

Since she is the queen, she is relieved in her heart, but why do she call her people again and again?

"You say, what are they doing with Mama Jinyun and Tsunami today? But what do you usually do to be disrespectful to the queen? ”

They threw themselves down and knelt down, and even said, no matter how much they didn't have, they didn't dare to have this heart.

It was dark, and Mama Jinyun and Yu Yan had not returned, and she walked back and forth in the house in panic.

In a hurry, Archiad returned, and after she had been taken away, she had ordered them to go out to investigate, but after so long she had been gone, she saw them come in, and just as she wanted to rebuke them, they had already fallen to their knees.

"Niangniang, no, it turns out that the queen suspected that the emperor's tax reduction and exemption was admonished by the mother, and she brought Jinyun Mama and Miss Yu for this matter!"

"What?" Everyone was startled, and the little eunuch was the first to jump up: "It's really ridiculous, the emperor's tax reduction is to pray for the child in the queen's womb, what's the matter with Guan Niangniang?" ”

She only felt that her heart was out of breath, and the harem was in politics, and she would be sent to the cold palace at the least, or she would be given death, and it seemed that the queen mother was becoming more and more unbearable.

I smiled bitterly in my heart, thought about it, and felt that it was wrong, and asked Ade: "Since you suspect me, why don't you just pass me on to ask?" ”

The queen is pregnant with Liujia, if someone else gives birth to a prince, it is even more honorable, although she is now a concubine, but the queen will not think about saving her any face.

"This minion doesn't know, I only heard that Queen Yi'an has also known about this matter, so the queen wants to check carefully!"

She nodded, her heart was much more settled, and she waved her hand to order them all to retreat, and she quietly watched the afterglow of the sunset obliquely outside the window, and the faint gold reflected on the brilliant glazed tiles, brilliant and colorful.

Her heart suddenly became sad, the world is really impermanent, the queen is picking this day, isn't it just taking advantage of the emperor's inability to pull away!

The sky was not dark, and the little eunuch arranged for someone to put up the lamp in the palace, and saw that she was still sitting at the entrance of the hall in a daze, so he hurriedly came over to help her: "The night is cool, take care of your body." ”

She smiled lightly and suddenly said, "What's your name?" "I was in a hurry just now, and I forgot about it, but now that I think about it, I only feel that this little eunuch is sensible.

The little eunuch smiled hesitantly, scratched his head and said: "The slave's name is Xiaodong, and he has been staying in Yongning Palace since Niangniang entered the palace, and it has been a few years since he entered the palace. ”

Oh, it turns out that she has been serving by her side for a year, and she still doesn't know his name, because she is usually too indifferent and ignores too many things.

"Would you like to be a consul eunuch?" She asked.

Xiao Dong didn't expect her to say this, he was stunned, and said 'ah' in his mouth, his face was full of puzzlement: "Niangniang, the slave is still young, I'm afraid I can't afford this position?" ”

She forced a smile and said to him, "Why, don't believe in my vision, or are you afraid that my favor will be exhausted because of today's events?" ”

Xiao Dong had no reason to shirk it, so he only bowed his head and thanked him.
