Besides, Mrs. Zhong here, because she is holding the waist card regulated by the county lord of Jing'an, she is unimpeded all the way, and no one stops her.

But the only thing was to arrive outside the Ningshou Palace where the queen lived, and was stopped by the big palace maid inside.

The queen's personal palace maid Ah Cai, after hearing the report from the low-level palace maid, put down the pu fan in her hand.

Before the noble woman who was leaning on the golden couch could speak, she walked out of herself.

Seeing Mrs. Zhong outside the palace gate who was supported by the maids, her face was haggard and pale, and she was wearing a fat dark gray satin collared gown, which made her very thin. The long black hair didn't roll up, but was messily draped over his shoulders.

"What is the matter with Madame Zhong here?" Ah Cai knew that her master didn't want to see this woman, so she naturally didn't have any anger when she spoke.

The green ping beside Mrs. Zhong was more involved in the play than Mrs. Zhong, and said sadly: "My wife has been missing the queen recently, and she specially made a good flower cake and brought it to the queen to taste." ”

Ah Cai said in her heart, this woman has not been in contact with the queen for more than half a year, and today she suddenly came to visit her, and she specially dressed up to look haggard, obviously in the weasel to give the chicken a New Year's greeting.

She pretended to salute, "The queen mother has had a headache recently, if Mrs. Zhong has nothing important, put down the flower cake." ”

"Something!" When Mrs. Zhong heard this, she was a little anxious, afraid that she would be driven away by Na Ah Cai this time, "Miss Ah Cai, I really have something to see the queen mother this time, please let me in!" ”

If it weren't for the fact that she was asking for help, Mrs. Zhong would not be so polite to a servant.

"But the queen is really unwell." Ah Cai frowned, a little impatient.

At this time, a solemn woman's voice came from the main hall behind her, with a little carelessness and some arrogance and indifference, "Ah Cai, bring people in." ”

Ah Cai turned around and saluted in the direction of the main hall, then turned around and glanced at the two, "Come in." ”

Mrs. Zhong laughed in her heart, and hurriedly followed behind Ah Cai with Lu Ping.

Ningshou Palace, the beams are made of Yunding sandalwood, the palace lampshade is made of extremely light crystal jade, and the curtain is made of silver thread and pearls. Facing the main hall gate, there is a six-foot-wide agarwood chaise longue, on which the pattern of a phoenix is embroidered with gold threads.

There is a shark and a treasure book hanging on the side of the couch, and the tent is embroidered with pearls and silver thread peonies. On the couch is placed a green jade incense pillow for the queen to rely on.

Look at the person on the couch again, dressed in a dark blue brocade dress, with a golden silk eight treasures on his head, a pearl hairpin with five phoenixes hanging from the rising sun, and a red gold ring on his neck. On the little and ring fingers of both hands, nail covers are carved with gold, inlaid with priceless round agate, and brittle blue jade.

As soon as Mrs. Zhong walked in, Acui, who was beside the queen, hurriedly stretched out her hand.

I saw that the queen unhurriedly put her hand on Atsui's hand, and gently borrowed strength, and then got up from the couch. The demeanor is elegant and dignified, but the eyes of a pair of triangular danfeng reveal half contempt and half coldness.

"Mrs. Zhong, I haven't seen you for so long, why are you coming to this palace again?" The queen didn't even look at her, and after sitting up, she reached out and took the best Biluochun handed over by Ah Cai, and her eyes were always on the exquisite teacup.

Mrs. Zhong's face was embarrassed, and the queen didn't say that she would give her a seat, so she could only stand in front of her stupidly, "Queen Mother, I made some flower cakes a few days ago, all of which are made with the most delicate and newly blooming flowers, which are sweet and delicious, and can clear the heat in my heart." ”

The queen took a sip of tea, reached out and leaned on the green jade pillow, she stretched out her hand and gently pressed her temple, she actually closed her eyes, and looked impatient, "Mrs. Zhong can just put things down, this palace has had a headache recently, and she can't eat something indiscriminate." ”

"Yes, yes...... That's ...... nature," Mrs. Zhong accompanied the smiling face, but she had already scolded secretly in her heart.

If it weren't for something to ask for, she wouldn't be so humble!

"That's right...... The queen wants to be the master of her sister! Seeing that she couldn't interject for a long time, she knelt on the ground, and the tears that had been brewing for a long time flowed out immediately.

The queen sighed, and her eyebrows frowned even more, "What's the matter?" ”

"Yes, that's the case, the county lord of Jing'an is playful, and he lived in the Hou Mansion for a few days, today I went to the Hou Mansion to pick her up, but I didn't want the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion Xia to refuse to let Jing'an come back, not only that, but also dared to speak wildly, and even beat my sister!" Mrs. Zhong said, kneeling on the ground and burying her head deep in the crook of her arm, "The most important thing is ...... She dared not to take the queen mother in her eyes! ”

In fact, as soon as Mrs. Fang Cai Zhong entered the gate of the main hall of Ningshou Palace, the queen saw her pretentious attire, and immediately guessed her intention. knew that it was her moisturizing days when she suddenly ran into a stumbling block, and she couldn't cope with it, so she remembered herself.

Listening to this, the queen coughed violently, and Ah Cai quickly ran over to help her breathe, and said with a complaint in her mouth: "The queen's health is not good these days, how can she have time to work hard for your affairs?" ”

"That's it," Acui also fanned the flames on the side, "Every day the things in the harem are enough to make the queen mother tired, if the ladies of the hundred officials have to beg the mother for everything, the mother's body will be unbearable!" ”

"But the Queen!"

"Alright." The queen waved her hand impatiently, not wanting to listen to Madame Zhong any more.

The current Mrs. Zhong has no value in her eyes, so there is no need for her to be patient to make her happy.

"Mrs. Zhong, you are now living in the county lord's mansion, and you can be regarded as the head of the family," the queen glanced at her lightly, and spoke unhurriedly, "You can't do anything, you have to come to the palace to solve it for you, right?" ”

Mrs. Zhong sat down in distraction and pleaded bitterly, "But...... I thought my clan sister would be my most stable backer......"

"You're sitting in such a high position, do you need another backer?"

That's right, this position is already the pinnacle of this life for Mrs. Zhong, if there is no support from the queen, I am afraid that this position will be unattainable for her life.

It's just that Mrs. Zhong didn't fully recognize her situation until this moment.

She originally thought that she had 'abandoned' the queen, and every time she needed to enter the palace to ask for peace, she proudly thought that if she didn't come to ask for peace, the queen would not be able to bear her, but she didn't expect that she had already been abandoned by the queen.

"Oh, I see." Mrs. Zhong got up from the ground with hatred, saluted reluctantly, and left quickly without looking back.

She thought that she was preserving her 'last dignity' by doing this, but she didn't know that such a struggling appearance was precisely the most despised.

After Mrs. Zhong left, the people in Ningshou Palace didn't even say a word about her, as if this person had never been here.

While fanning the queen, Ah Cai suddenly remembered the news from sending someone out to investigate, and said softly: "Queen Mother, the person who went to Changle Palace to inquire has returned." ”

Changle Palace is the residence of Concubine Shu.

"She said, today Changle Palace invited another imperial doctor......" Ah Cai said, "It is said that Concubine Shu is just infected with ordinary wind and cold......"

"Wind chill?" The queen sneered, obviously not believing this statement, "Does the emperor know?" ”

"Not yet."

Hearing this, a trace of gloom flashed in the queen's eyes, and she sat up by herself without waiting for help, she smiled fiercely, and her graceful appearance became really terrifying.

"Since the emperor doesn't know, the palace will go up on behalf of the emperor to 'care' about her......"

Concubine Shu has been in the palace for several years, and there are no heirs, recently Changle Palace frequently invited the imperial doctor to enter the palace to diagnose the pulse, and with a little thought, you can find out what kind of 'disease' this concubine is suffering from.

It's been quiet in this palace for too long, and the queen said to herself, it's time to make some waves......
