Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Son Has Been Settled
Zhaoyun and Luo Ye were about to walk outside the study, and from a distance, they saw the Empress Dowager Changde, who was dressed in a phoenix robe, and came with a group of people.
Luo Ye stepped forward a few times, hugged the Empress Dowager Changde and said, "Why did the Queen Mother come over?" ”
"It's not that I heard that everyone in Zhaoyun Palace is bold and reckless, and they don't even pay attention to their masters." Changde's gaze fell directly on Zhaoyun, who was saluting, and he meant something.
"Please forgive the queen mother, I will not discipline my subordinates, and I have made the queen mother and the emperor angry, this is Zhaoyun's sin." Zhaoyun continued to salute, but his eyes were clear.
Chang De glanced at her: "You get up." ”
As she spoke, she glanced at Biluo who was following behind her, and said lightly, "What about your other palace maids?" ”
Zhaoyun straightened up and said with a smile: "After returning to my mother, it has gradually warmed up recently, so I thought about letting their girls take turns on duty to avoid heat stroke." And today is the spring of Xi, they are on duty. ”
"Hee-chun? Is it the palace maid who was rewarded to you by the mourning family? Changde raised his hand and motioned to Mama Wang beside him to summon them.
Zhaoyun nodded.
After about a cup of tea, Mama Wang led the four of Xichun to come.
In the interval, Zhaoyun ordered someone to bring two yellow rosewood chairs, and Changde and Luo Ye sat down on the left and right. Zhaoyun stood behind Luo Ye.
Changde held a cup of tea in his hand and carefully looked at the four Xichun people kneeling in front of him.
I saw that these four palace maids were all dressed in peach-pink palace clothes, each with their own beauty.
Chang De suddenly fell on Qiuqiu, got up, stretched out his fingers with finger cuffs and lifted her slightly pointed chin.
The beaded tip of the finger sleeve gestured against her fair face.
Qiu Qiu was stifled by a force and looked up, and when he saw the coldness in the eyes of the Empress Dowager Changde, he was instantly petrified.
"Look at this shell-like face, look at this little appearance that I see pitiful, what a beauty with a moth eyebrow." Chang De pinched the five fingers of her chin and pushed harder.
"Originally, I gave you to come to Zhaoyun Palace to let you serve the princess well. Who knew that you actually had a side mind, and it seems that you can't stay here now. After speaking, Changde suddenly withdrew the five fingers that were holding her chin.
Led by this force, Qiu Qiu fell to the ground sideways, tears instantly slashed his face.
Xichun and Nian Xia, who were kneeling beside them, were both startled, and their bodies trembled slightly.
Changde sat back on the yellow wooden chair, holding the tea cup and skimming the foam in the cup with the lid. The porcelain cup and the porcelain lid collide with each other, making a crisp sound. There was silence all around.
Zhaoyun, who was standing behind, saw Changde make a gesture and motioned for Mama Wang to step forward, and the five fingers in her sleeves gradually tightened and pinched the cuffs tightly.
I've been waiting for so long, just to bet on this moment!
Finally, Luo Ye, who was sitting in front of him, opened his mouth before Mama Wang spoke, and Zhaoyun suddenly loosened his tightened five fingers.
I only heard Luo Ye's voice coming from the front: "Queen Mother, since this palace maid is happy with me." I also heard that she was also a young lady of the official family before, so it is better to make a promise to her, in order to show my fraternity and benevolence. ”
Kneeling on the ground, crying pear blossoms with rain, hearing this, he instantly stopped his tears and looked at Luo Ye who was sitting upright in a daze.
Chang De raised his thin eyebrows, stared at the stunned Qiuqiu tightly, as if he wanted to see a flower on her face, and hesitated: "However, she was the daughter of a criminal minister. ”
Luo Ye stood up, walked up to Chang De and saluted, "When I ascended the throne, I gave amnesty to the world, and the previous sin has also been completed. I felt that this was the best opportunity to show the world my determination to implement the new policy. ”
Changde was dumbfounded, so he had to reluctantly obey his wishes.
"The Queen Mother...... What to do with the other palace maids? Seeing this, Mama Wang stepped forward to ask for instructions.
Before Changde spoke, Zhaoyun stepped forward and curtsied: "It was Zhaoyun's poor discipline that made the emperor and the queen mother angry." But a few of them were rewarded by the Queen Mother, and Zhaoyun was really helpless against their laziness. ”
"I heard that not long ago, Xichun and Nianxia went to the imperial dining room to make trouble?" Chang De straightened the folds on his phoenix robe and asked casually.
The jealousy in the hearts of Xichun and Nianxia, who were kneeling, instantly turned into fear, and they all lowered their heads in unison.
"I ordered you to come so that you can serve Princess Zhaoyun well. As a result, you have disappointed the mourning family so much! It seems that the task assigned to you by the mourning family will definitely disappoint the mourning family. Changde looked at the two Xichun who were kneeling in front of him and shook his head slightly.
"Queen Mother, now I have enough people in the palace. This winter is capable, so it's better to leave her behind. And if Qiu Qiu agrees, he will lack manpower, so it is better to point out Xichun and the two, and they can also take care of each other. Zhaoyun said with a smile.
The two Xichun who had their heads down, heard Zhaoyun's words, looked at her suddenly, and scrambled to kneel and move forward.
"Princess, I want to follow you!"
"Yes, we all want to serve the princess!"
Xichun and the two said loudly in unison.
Zhaoyun walked up to them and bent down to look at Nian Xia at eye level.
Nearly Nian Xia saw his own reflection in Zhaoyun's clear eyes. Suddenly, the reflection in the eyes rippled, and for a moment it became as if it had frozen on the surface of the lake, and only a chill remained.
Nian Xia only felt that all his thoughts were like a shell that had been disguished and exposed in front of Zhaoyun. A chill instantly rose from the soles of her feet, and she fell to her knees at once.
Suddenly, as if deflated, he stopped speaking.
Zhaoyun straightened up and walked to the side, waiting for Changde's decision.
"Well, since that's the case, then let Zhaoyun do what you say." Chang De cocked his fingers, rubbed the sides of his forehead, and said tiredly, "Deal with those palace empresses who gather to make trouble, mourn the family and go back to the palace!" ”
After speaking, he was supported by Mama Wang, and several palace maids followed. Zhaoyun, Luo Ye and the others saluted and watched them leave.
It wasn't until the figure disappeared outside the vermilion lacquered wooden gate that everyone got up.
Luo Ye looked at the few palace maids who were kneeling in front of him, frowned, and said in a low voice.
"Today, the palace maids who gather to perform dice shows are fined three months of silver and downgraded by one level. In the future, you are not allowed to gather in public in the palace to play dice games, and violators will be severely punished! ”
The crowd kneeling on the ground responded unevenly.
After Luo Ye finished speaking, he glanced at Zhaoyun, turned around and left with his hands behind his back.
"When did the palace maid of Chengen Palace become a member of my Zhaoyun Palace?" After Luo Ye left, Zhaoyun looked down at them and said with a smile.
The palace maids of the Cheng'en Palace all bowed their heads, only one of the palace maids with a round face raised her head slightly and said, "I...... We're here for something. ”
"What's the matter?" Zhaoyun asked with interest.
"We invite the princess to go to Cheng'en Palace tomorrow for a gathering."
"Oh? Is it? Then there is no need to send three palace maids to come. Zhaoyun seemed to hear something funny.
First, she has no friendship with Mu Guiren, and second, Zhaoyun Palace and Chengen Palace are very close to each other, so why send three people to pass the word?
Seeing that the round-faced palace maid was instantly speechless, Zhaoyun didn't bother to expose her lies, and waved his hand to signal them to leave.
Looking at the four Xichun who were still kneeling on the ground, and seeing the unwillingness in Xichun and Nianxia's eyes, Zhaoyun smiled slightly.
And Qiu Qiu's face was flushed, obviously still indulging in Luo Ye's words.
Zhaoyun looked at the cold winter with a complicated face, and returned to the dormitory. When she turned around, a smile appeared on her lips.
Previously, in the study, she and Luo Ye mentioned Qiuqiu's life experience, and they were really right!
This move will eventually fall, and she narrowly won this move.
And now, only the last chess piece has not been left behind......
