160, all dedicated to the mother
Concubine Ru herself is a person with a clear heart, and she will not easily do such a thing as digging into the bottom of things.
It's good that the queen can return safely.
But Concubine Qing is particularly prone to heart breakdown, and after experiencing the destruction of the Guo family, every nerve in her already unsmart head has become extremely fragile.
She could feel that something was not right with the queen's return, and that the dead had come back alive, and this feeling was already creepy when she thought about it.
The subjects embraced the queen, and under the sacred aura of the queen's mother, in fact, there was a fear of her deeper in everyone's heart.
A woman who can control even her own death, let alone the lives of others?
Concubine Qing is a frightened bird, she can't think of more and deeper places, and she has no confidence or sense of security in her heart, so she tried to listen to something she wanted to listen to from Concubine Ru, she was very afraid.
But Concubine Ru can't help her now, Concubine Qing is babbling alone, I don't know if she really wants to get some peace of mind from others or if she can make herself feel better by saying it like this.
Fortunately, she didn't wait too long, Qi Ying just said that she wanted to stay in the palace for dinner, so there was still a lot of time left, Jingyue glanced at the movement outside, and reminded Jiang Wan that the concubines were still waiting to meet the queen, Jiang Wan stopped talking and let Jiang Ying go in to sleep for a while and wait for her to come back.
Concubine Qing, who was kneeling outside for a while, trembled when she heard the summons inside, and was helped to stand up, only to realize that her kneeling leg was very painful, and she was fascinated just now, but she didn't notice it at all.
Now that she is the only concubine in the harem, she naturally has to lead the way.
But Concubine Qing seemed to be filled with iron under her feet, and it was Concubine Ru who pushed her before she finally took the first step.
It felt very bad to be the first to go in, and she clenched Concubine Qing's arm without sleeves, so she knelt down before she could see Jiang Wan's face clearly at the first glance.
This is the real queen!
That face doesn't lie!
Jiang Wan was puzzled by Concubine Qing's reaction, she resisted the urge to raise her hand and touch her face, thinking to herself that she didn't make such a fierce expression, right? Why are you afraid of being like this?
But this thought passed in a flash, Concubine Ru and Concubine Yu followed closely behind, and Concubine Yu glanced at her and then lowered her eyes and stood behind Concubine Qing in a regular manner.
It's Concubine Ru, who still has the same temperament, staring at her eyes and not looking away, as if she wants to see something flaw in the face in front of her.
But looking at it, Concubine Ru was still unambiguous when she saluted.
Jiang Wan smiled very shallowly: "Sit down." ”
When she smiled, something flashed quickly in Concubine Ru's mind, but it was too fast, and Concubine Ru didn't catch anything.
She just felt familiar, but when she thought about it, hadn't the queen always been like this? It's because she hasn't seen her mother for too long, so this familiarity is put on a strange coat.
It must be like this.
It was not Jiang Wan's request to meet the concubine, but the queen returned to the palace and had to have such a rule, she sat on it, and felt very emotional.
I didn't expect so many things to happen in just over a year, and now it is difficult for Concubine Ru to make a table of cards.
The hall was silent for a while, Jiang Wan drank tea, Concubine Qing also drank tea, Jiang Wan raised her eyes, and Concubine Qing looked at Concubine Ru vigorously.
Concubine Ru seemed to have a lot of things to say, but she felt that the identities between her and Jiang Wan were so far away that she wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it.
Jiang Wan felt emotional, when she was still a concubine, she was quite intimate with Concubine Ru.
Now that they have changed back to the identity of the queen, the intimacy between the two seems to have disappeared with the return of this identity.
Jiang Wan was silent and didn't know what to say, so she sat for a while and then let go, Concubine Qing was relieved, and hurriedly saluted and left in a hurry.
Concubine Yu glanced at Concubine Ru, who was sitting and didn't get up, but she didn't call her together, and left silently.
When the people were finished, Concubine Ru stood up and took two steps forward to Jiang Wan: "Queen Mother. ”
She shouted a little obscurely, but after shouting, she felt relaxed again.
When the queen returned, Concubine Ru thought she would be so excited that her eyes were full of excitement.
But she didn't.
It's a strange feeling.
It's obviously a blood-boiling story, but Concubine Ru feels that after listening to that story, the queen seems to have never left here.
Jiang Wan bowed slightly, she could no longer speak to Concubine Ru in the tone of Concubine Jing, but her gaze at Concubine Ru was still the same soft.
She waited for Concubine Ru's next words, but Concubine Ru's lips squirmed, and after a long time, she blinked, and when she raised her eyes to look at it again, she seemed to have persuaded herself not to think deeply, and not to delve into it, she spoke again, and she was already serious: "Niangniang, are we really going to fight Dongshu?" ”
An Jihe sent her a letter home, the old man was annoying, and between the lines was revealing the fatigue of running around when he was old, and he wanted her to be a daughter to reply to comfort and comfort.
Isn't it just to mention that she also has to make some contributions to Dajin?!
Zhang Luo is concerned about the treasury, and he can't tie his heart for the country and the people.
Concubine Ru feels like a fat and strong white sheep, where is the father who always thinks about his daughter's treasury?!
She didn't believe that the old man really couldn't get the money for the war!
But now. . .
The queen mother is back, and Concubine Ru is a little shaken in her heart.
She knew what the status of the queen mother in the army would mean if Dajin and Dongshu went to war.
Niangniang will definitely review the three armies with the emperor and go to the Nine Immortals, she is the god of war, what kind of battlefield is it without the god of war?
It was because of this that Concubine Ru came to confirm it.
Jiang Wan was confused, why did she suddenly talk about this again?
However, she still replied to Concubine Ru seriously: "Dongshu's ambition is too high, and the palace and the emperor can't be tolerated." ”
That's going to be fought.
Concubine Ru clenched her hands: "Is Niangniang going too?" ”
Jiang Wan smiled: "The palace is with the emperor." ”
That's the way to go.
The conjecture in her heart was confirmed, Concubine Ru felt that her heart was twitching a little, and she twitched twice with the expression on her face for a while, and Jiang Wan saw it, which made her laugh: "Concubine Ru, what's wrong with you?" ”
Concubine Ru gasped, raised her hand and beat her heart: "The concubine is fine, it's just that the mother is back." The concubine was really happy. ”
Jiang Wan smiled even more: "This palace looks at you like you're uncomfortable, what's the matter, are you afraid of fighting?" ”
Concubine Ru choked for a moment, and replied excessively: "There is a mother and the emperor, and the concubine is far away in the Shengjing Palace, if you say that you are worried about the mother, it is true, if you say that you are afraid, the mother will look down on the concubine, if Dongshu can really attack Shengjing, the concubine will have nothing to be afraid of, and it is a big deal to jump into a high-rise building." ”
Jiang Wan smiled and bent her eyes: "It will hurt if you fall, and if you have this palace to guard for a day, the Nine Immortals will not break." ”
Concubine Ru was as relieved as ever: "The concubine is the same as the subjects of the Great Jin Dynasty, and she believes in Niangniang." ”
After speaking, Concubine Ru smiled bitterly again, "The concubine is just thinking that she has inherited the emperor's grace and lived comfortably all these years, and now she is about to fight, but there is nothing she can do for the emperor and her mother." ”
Speaking of the back, Concubine Ru's voice gradually became quieter, and her heart twitched even more, she simply restrained her words, excused herself that the prime minister was still here, and stayed for a short time, and then took Jin Zhu's hand and left Qionglin Palace.
In fact, she has something to help.
When An Jihe wrote her first letter to her and mentioned that she was going to fight, Concubine Ru knew what she could do.
But she didn't take it to heart at the moment.
Concubine Jing had just given birth to a prince, and the envoys of Dongshu had just left Shengjing, so how could they send troops in a short period of time?
If there is really a fight, how will Concubine Jing deal with herself? How does the prince deal with himself?
Unexpectedly, the second prince hadn't even decided on his name, so he was quietly told of his death.
Next, she didn't even see Concubine Jing's face, and was told that Concubine Jing was crazy and killed the monarch and was dragged into the cold palace.
The war came so quickly, like a storm brewing early in the morning, that it did not give people any respite for thought.
It has been several months since Anjihe prepared the treasury.
The queen's return was so prepared and premeditated, after Concubine Ru returned to the palace and sat down, Jin Zhu brought her tea: "The master doesn't have a heartache when he is young?" What happened when I talked to the queen today? The slave and maid Xuan Tai Doctor came to take a look. ”
Jin Zhu said that she was about to go outside and tell the little eunuch to go to the Tai Hospital, but Concubine Ru suddenly called out to her, saying that she was fine, not that kind of heartache.
Jin Zhu: "What kind of heartache does the little lord have?" ”
Concubine Ru raised her eyes, and her eyes were teary: "I'm mainly distressed. ”
Jin Zhu was speechless, and suddenly understood: "I feel sorry for your gold and silver jewelry? ”
Concubine Ru nodded aggrievedly.
Jin Zhu was even more speechless: "No one wants you." ”
Concubine Ru blinked, and suddenly slapped the table angrily and got up: "Didn't you see what my father said?" All his old bottoms were taken out and went to the treasury, fighting is the most expensive money, and the queen is going to be recruited in person, who doesn't know that I am the richest in this harem? It doesn't make sense, I'll hide it. ”
After speaking, Concubine Ru's mouth was flattened, she covered her heart and sat back, looking like she was about to lose her breath: "Am I easy, woo woo, I have worked hard in the palace for all these years, what do I want, I have to take it out, Jin Zhu, my heart hurts, you hurry." Go and bring Jin Ruyi on the bed.,I'll hold it for a while.。。 ”
Jin Zhu: ...
"Save it, master, it's even more distressing to hug it, if you think about it and want to take it out to contribute to the country, then it won't be yours later, or the slave maid will start sorting out and counting now, right? Then don't hold Jin Ruyi, pull it off from your arms later, do you say it's more uncomfortable? Jin Zhu ruthlessly poured salt water on Concubine Ru's wound, in exchange for Concubine Ru's even more resentful and collapsed eyes.
There was silence in the room for a moment, and Concubine Ru, who was so distressed that she couldn't breathe, looked at the sky outside the window speechlessly, and said weakly: "Jin Zhu, look at the cloud in the sky, it doesn't look like the big red gold box that I am about to donate to my mother?" ”
Jin Zhu: ...
Like a fart.
She rolled her eyes silently: "Master, that's a cloud." ”
Concubine Ru cried and chirped.
After a while, Concubine Ru pointed to another cloud and said, "Jin Zhu, look, that cloud doesn't look like the big gold ingot I am about to donate to Niangniang?" It's still in strings. Why don't you have a few hundred gold? ”
Jin Zhu: "Master, this string of black and gold bracelets on the table, the slaves and maids have put it away and counted it?" ”
Concubine Ru propped herself up angrily and glared at Jin Zhu, gritted her teeth, and said viciously: "Take it, take it!" You can take everything you look at in this house! From now on, I will change my mind and be a simple man! Yuqing Palace, you have moved it clean for me! Don't ask me! Walk! Hurry up! ”
Jin Zhu stared at Concubine Ru, who was so distressed and embarrassed.
Helplessly hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled.
The little master of her family has never been willing to give in to her master, but Jinzhu knows that Concubine Ru has always been very proud of her loyalty to An Jihe, although she trembles in distress, but in the affairs of the family and country, after all, she is still concerned about the country and advances and retreats with her father's honor.
Concubine Ru stared at Jin Zhu and collected things everywhere.
Take one and twitch the corner of your eye.
When Jin Zhu called the palace maid and eunuch outside to move the house almost completely, Concubine Ru stretched her neck and shouted: "My golden silk pillow!" I can't sleep well without it! Forget it! You can take it, can you put down the red sandalwood pot?! I'm going to leave me a few gold-plated rocks for the jewelry on that table?! Are you my maid?! Put down the jade coral in my hand! Are you really moving?! Gold beads! Golden beads. ”
Concubine Ru's shout fell on Jin Zhu's ears like a mosquito, she couldn't hear it, and all of them moved back to the warehouse.
When she went back to see her master, Concubine Ru was already lying on the table, as if her heart was dead.
The iron-hearted, immovable Jin Zhu stretched out his hand to comb Concubine Ru's hair, and chuckled lightly in the eyes of Concubine Ru who wanted to eat people: "When is the master going to report to the emperor and the queen?" Or.. Slave Ming'er counts again? ”
Concubine Ru gritted her teeth and squeezed out words from between her teeth: "Now! Immediately! Counts! ”
Two days later, she estimated that she would be able to regret her bowels.
All in one go, otherwise she wouldn't have to wait for three and run out, just run out.
Jin Zhu immediately responded happily and hurried to the warehouse to count.
The inventory work was not finished until after dinner, and Concubine Ru went to see it once in the middle, and almost lost her breath after seeing it, and was helped back to the house by the little palace maid to lie down, and the person was almost withering.
After Jin Zhu finished counting, when she went to read the list in front of Concubine Ru, Concubine Ru felt that she was already overly distressed and numb.
There are thousands of large and small things on the long list, and although the total value is nothing compared to the treasury, it is already a very large number for the harem concubines.
Having such a heart is more important than anything else.
Concubine Ru knew that she was just a woman in the deep palace, and she didn't have the ability to be as close to mythology as the queen, but she never despised herself as a woman.
Although the strength is small, it is a mind after all.
After Jin Zhu finished reading, Concubine Ru raised her hand and rubbed her face, and when she eased up and let Jin Zhu help her up, her expression was much clearer.
She redressed her makeup, and several valuable hairpins on her head were also taken away by the gold beads.
Concubine Ru twitched so much, why was this girl so active when she sent her money out?!
But it's too late to regret it.
Before going out, Concubine Ru hugged Jinzhu and cried again, so that Jinzhu had to coax her like a child, and then put on makeup again.
Concubine Ru was originally still sobbing, as soon as she stepped out of the palace gate of Yuqing Palace, her aura was full in an instant, and a copy of the palace was the most powerful existence in the whole harem, tremble, see how the palace helps the queen's momentum.
Gold Beads: ???
It's not like that when you cry.
Now when I go out, my face is all supported by hard support, and I have to behave freely when I say anything.
Before she went out, she asked specifically, Jiang Wan was really in the Imperial Golden Palace, the prime minister and the prince had just left, and it was just right for her to go over now.
She waited outside the Imperial Palace for a while, and Changzhong came out to welcome her in.
Concubine Ru came over at this time, Qi Ying and Jiang Wan both felt strange and didn't know what she was doing.
After coming in to salute, Concubine Ru didn't talk nonsense, took the booklet in Jinzhu's hand and handed it to Qi Ying, and told her decision.
Qi Ying couldn't close her mouth, took the booklet and read it back and forth several times, and after making sure that Concubine Ru was serious, she said very entangledly: "You... If you feel too reluctant, you don't have to push yourself so hard, don't you have some left in the palace? It's good to have this in mind, you don't have to take it all out. ”
Concubine Ru's tense body shook, as if she was shaking a little and she was going to cry on the spot, she said stiffly: "No, there is only so much that the concubine can do, if she can help the emperor and the queen, even a little, the concubine can feel more at ease in the harem." ”
Qi Ying is still very entangled.
No one understands how much Concubine Ru loves money more than him, and all of a sudden it is all given to the treasury, Concubine Ru is digging her heart with a knife, Qi Ying is afraid that she will be angry with herself if she sobers up in two days.
He turned his face to look at Jiang Wan: "Wanwan. . . ”
Qi Ying called her by her name so affectionately, Concubine Ru was immersed in her distress and did not ease her mind at all, but Jiang Wan still felt a little embarrassed, but it was very useful.
She glanced at Concubine Ru and said softly: "Since it is Concubine Ru's intention, let's take it, Anjihe is dedicated and loyal, and the daughter she taught is naturally the same." ”
Qi Ying muttered: "Look at her, what has she shaken into?" ”
Jiang Wan looked at Concubine Ru and almost laughed.
As Qi Ying said, Concubine Ru's distressed appearance is really funny and cute, it's really embarrassing for her.
Hearing Qi Ying say this, Concubine Ru was not happy at the moment, she frowned slightly, and suddenly stepped forward to take the booklet from Qi Ying's hand, and then solemnly put it in Jiang Wan's hand.
Qi Ying: ???
Concubine Ru didn't care so much, Zhengse said: "The concubine's heart is mainly dedicated to the queen's mother, this is the concubine's little heart as a harem concubine, although the concubine can't follow the mother to the battlefield, but the concubine hopes that her meager heart can be passed on to the mother, and it has also become a force in the mother's heart." ”
