Chapter 522: Just a few words about the past
522
On the evening of the 28th, Wei Yining and others returned to the palace, Wei Lanqi had some nasal congestion and sore throat, because she was afraid that she would be sick to the people in the palace, so she continued to take leave to recuperate at home.
Wei Yining and Duanmin County Lord went back to the palace and heard that Liu Cairen ran back to Runzhi Palace a few days ago and was shocked by the holy car, and heard that Princess Qinghua cried hard because of this incident, and had a cold disease, and now she is sick in bed and can't go out at all.
Wei Yining thought about visiting Liu Cairen, so he discussed with the county lord of Duanmin, and the county lord also agreed, and sent two palace maids to follow her, bringing a lot of snacks and fruits by the way.
Probably because he was frightened, Liu Cairen became even more crazy, almost to the point of not recognizing people.
However, she seemed to have a slight impression of Wei Yining, and after seeing her coming, her mood calmed down a little, but she didn't speak and just stared.
The two palace maids who have been serving her all the year round stood aside and wiped their tears, and now their treatment here is even worse, even worse than the cold palace.
Although Liu Cairen scratched Zeng Wanshi that night, Zeng Wanshi not only did not blame her, but also interceded for Liu Cairen in front of the emperor, and did not trouble her after that.
But Zeng Guiren is tolerant, it doesn't mean that others are the same, there are more people in this palace who praise the high and the low, and they are even more ruthless than the competition to see whose means are more ruthless.
"Miss Wei, thank you for still remembering our talents at this time, and it stands to reason that we should go to the county lord to kowtow and thank you, but there are no people around the talents, and now there are only two of us here, and the others have already found their own way out." The palace maid beside Liu Cairen said.
"I'll convey your meaning to the county lord on your behalf, and you guys will take care of talented people." Wei Yining said gently.
A palace maid picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and walked over to Liu Cairen's mouth, who wanted Liu Cairen to be frightened and knocked it off, desperately shrank into the bed, and said frantically while drilling into the quilt: "I don't eat it, I don't eat this thing is poisonous." I don't know anything, please go quickly, I won't say it. ”
"Don't be afraid, take a good look at the slave! How can a slave or a maid harm you? You haven't eaten in a day, so grab a snack. The palace maid coaxed Liu Cairen like a child.
"Ah, it's you! Yes, I remember you! Your name is Roul, aren't you? You won't hurt me, you're the kindest. Liu Cairen held the palace maid's hand and rarely smiled.
The two palace maids who served Liu Cairen have been in the palace for less than five years, and they don't know who Rounu is at all, they just think they are the palace maids who served Liu Cairen before.
Wei Yining was a little shocked when he heard Liu Cairen say the name of Rou Nu.
Rou Nu was originally on duty in front of the Empress Dowager Mingxian, and Liu Cairen actually remembered her like this, which shows that the two should have been more familiar back then.
"Yes, don't be afraid, she is a soft slave and will not harm you." Wei Yining stepped forward and comforted Liu Cairen in a low voice, and motioned to the palace maid to hand over the snack in her hand with her eyes.
Liu Cairen slowly lowered his guard, snatched the dim sum, stuffed it into his mouth, and ate it indiscriminately. Wei Yining saw that she was choking badly, so she hurriedly stepped forward to smooth her back.
While the maid was pouring tea, Wei Yining whispered in Liu Cairen's ear: "What did Rou Nu tell you?" ”
"She said go fast and go, don't say anything." Liu Cairen whispered, his body shrunk into a ball.
"Don't say anything?" Wei Yining asked again.
"Don't say that there are men in the Queen Mother's Palace." Liu Cairen's eyes widened, and the horror in his eyes was very obvious: "Otherwise, it will kill people." ”
Wei Yining has heard more than once from Liu Cairen's mouth that there is a man in the Queen Mother's Palace, which shows that this incident is very impressive to Liu Cairen.
The Queen Mother in her mouth should be the late Empress Dowager Mingxian, Liu Cairen must have bumped into the Queen Mother and a certain man, so she will be secretive to Cuiming Palace.
And from what Liu Cairen just said, it can be inferred that Rou Nu must also know.
It's just that Liu Cairen knows what the real cause of Rounu's death is?
"Niangniang, let's have some tea." The palace maid brought the tea.
Wei Yining could only hold back the doubts in his heart and pretend to be nothing.
Before she talked to Liu Cairen, the palace maid only thought that what Liu Cairen said was crazy and Wei Yining was just dealing with her, not to mention that the two of them spoke in a low voice, and they couldn't hear what they were saying at all.
Wei Yining originally wanted to stay a little longer and ask Liu Cairen for some information, but at this moment, Ding Neijian came.
His arrival was very surprising, you must know that he is the chief eunuch of Runzhi Palace.
Now Xu Guifei's position is several levels higher than Liu Cairen, not to mention that she has never sent anyone here before, and at this time, a big manager suddenly came, which was really unexpected.
Ding Neijian still has the same smiling expression on his face, but his eyes are cyan, especially like snake eyes, which always gives people a sinister and cunning feeling.
"It turns out that Miss Wei is also here, what a coincidence." Ding Neijian said with a haha: "The miscellaneous family came to visit Liu Cairen on the order of the noble concubine, and specially brought some supplements. ”
He was followed by a little eunuch, holding a large tray in his hand, which contained a lot of tonic such as monkey's bird's nest.
Wei Yining nodded, stood up and said, "I've been here for a while, and it's time to go back." ”
After saying goodbye, he went out.
After she came out of Liu Cairen's place, she did not go back to the Jinge Pavilion directly, but turned around and walked in the direction of the cold palace.
At this time, it was already dark, Wei Yining's body was extremely fast, and his steps were light, and no one could see who it was.
Aunt Chunhe was sewing the upper of her shoes with an oil lamp, and when she saw Wei Yining coming, she got up and said, "Girl, what are you doing here so late?" ”
"Disturbing Aunt Chunhe, I just wanted to come and ask about something." Wei Yining didn't even take off the cloak and hood on his head, it seemed that he was really about to leave with just one question.
"What's the matter? As long as I know, I will tell you. Aunt Chunhe put down the needle and thread and said.
"Do you know what the relationship between Liu Cairen today, that is, Liu Guiren, who lived in Runzhi Palace before, and Xu Guifei ten years ago?" Wei Yining asked.
"Well...... Aunt Chunhe thought for a while and said, "I don't know very much about the things between the two of them, but I also remember that the two of them entered the palace almost at the same time, and at that time, Mr. Liu Guiren gave birth to Princess Qinghua, and she was more beautiful and gentle than Concubine Xu, so she was more favored, which is recognized." When Xu Guifei was only a talent, Liu Cairen had already been promoted to a nobleman. But at that time, the two of them were very close, always referred to as sisters, and seemed very close. Later, she became pregnant with the prince successively, but unfortunately Liu Cairen had a miscarriage and the child died. Since then, she has not been in good shape. ”
