Shushu patted the hand of the palace maid and said with a smile: "Don't worry about me, it's you, don't talk about this in front of Chen Zhaoyi in the future, otherwise Chen Zhaoyi listens, and your little life will be gone!" ”

The palace maid was startled, and suddenly didn't dare to say more, so she hurried away.

It was calligraphy and painting, she stood outside the door and glanced at Zhao Kexi's bedroom, and a sneer gradually appeared in her eyes.

Follow Concubine Jia, she can have the last laugh!

Fortunately, she had already chosen a team and didn't have to worry about where she was going.

At three o'clock, in the Cining Palace.

Shang Kelan brought all the concubines to greet the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother saw that she was dressed plainly today, and remembered Zhao Kexi's incident, so she didn't have a good impression of Shang Kelan, and said with a cold face: "I heard that you ruined Chen Zhaoyi's appearance yesterday?" ”

Shang Kelan smiled and replied, "How dare you?" The Queen Mother, Chen Zhaoyi accidentally got the gypsum powder on her face, so she was like this. ”

The Queen Mother snorted coldly and stopped talking to her.

She didn't believe a word that popped out of Shang Kelan's mouth at all.

Shang Kelan said again: "The queen mother, the concubine went out of the palace this time to buy some folk gadgets, look at this drum, do you still like it?" ”

After she said that, Yuliu respectfully presented a small red lacquer painting doll drum to the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother looked stunned, and subconsciously took the drum and said: "The mourning family remembers, this drum has not been sold for a long time in the capital, when I was a child, Da Lang and Erlang liked to play this the most, Your Majesty is very sensible, and never fights with my brothers for these things." ”

Shang Kelan reluctantly got up and saluted: "Queen Mother, the concubine overheard His Majesty talk about it, and you also like this drum, so I bought one to please you, but I didn't think it would make you remember the sad thing, please forgive the Queen Mother." ”

The Queen Mother sighed, her eyes much gentler.

She raised her hand to Shang Kelan and said, "Okay, get up, the mourning family likes this gadget very much, you have a heart." ”

The general's mansion was ransacked by the first emperor, and these nostalgic things inside have long been broken.

It is also excellent for the Queen Mother to be able to retrieve one or two old things in her memory.

The rest of the concubines looked at Shang Kelan with envy and jealousy, how much does His Majesty love her? will tell her all these preferences of the Queen Mother without any scruples!

Shang Kelan smiled and raised her eyes to the Queen Mother: "If the Queen Mother thinks you like it, the concubine will give you gifts every day after tomorrow, and the Su Yuan Judge also said that you must maintain a quiet and happy attitude in order to live a healthy and long life, the Chinese New Year's Eve is coming, and Your Majesty also wants to see the Queen Mother happy and healthy." ”

Looking at Shang Kelan like this, somehow, the Queen Mother remembered the hot pot she arranged for herself and Her Majesty last time, originally wanting to let herself and Your Majesty not make the mother-son relationship so stiff, but it ended up because of Zhao Kehan.

Thinking about it carefully, she really took Zhao Kehan too seriously.

The Queen Mother's eyes flashed with a complicated color, and then said to Shang Kelan: "Even if you have a heart, how do you plan to arrange the palace banquet on Chinese New Year's Eve?" Do you have a solution? ”

Seeing that the Queen Mother asked, Shang Kelan replied: "Back to the Queen Mother, the concubines have made a plan with reference to the scale of the palace banquet in previous years, and they are still being revised, removing the overly extravagant and unnecessary places, leaving only useful designs." ”

Although I don't know what the word design means, the Queen Mother probably understands it. every day

She nodded and said, "Okay, since you have a plan, then the mourning family will not be involved, and if you need to come and talk to the mourning family again." ”

The two of them were talking, and the rest of the palace concubines couldn't interject into their mouths, and after a while, the morning invitation ceremony was over.

In the main hall, Wanqin saw that the relationship between the Queen Mother and Shang Kelan seemed to have eased a little, so she quietly asked the Queen Mother: "The Queen Mother, the slave maid is going to send Concubine Chen?" ”

The Queen Mother nodded and said, "It's okay, you go and send her, and by the way, go to the Tai Hospital to get some plasters, the leg of the mourning family will hurt in winter." ”

"Yes, Queen Mother."

Wanqin responded respectfully, and then followed Shang Kelan out.

Outside, the white expanse reflects the red wall and the palace gate, which seems to have a sense of quiet and tranquility.

Shang Kelan did not take a sedan chair back to the palace, but walked back to the Yangxin Palace with Yuliu and Wanqin.

On the way, when a few people passed through the white marble square, there was no one to hide in the open place, Shang Kelan looked ahead and asked indifferently: "I came to send the palace back to the palace, but what do you want to say?" ”

Shang Kelan walked slowly, and the two followed her pace, like a leisurely walk after dinner.

Wanqin said in a voice that only they could hear: "The day before yesterday, the slave maid saw Concubine Jia outside the palace going to the good hall where His Majesty frequented recently, and donated a lot of things to the children of the good hall, and said something to His Majesty, the slave didn't know what Concubine Jia said to His Majesty, but the slave felt that this was too much of a coincidence, and Concubine Jia probably deliberately went to the good hall to wait for Your Majesty. ”

Shang Kelan's eyes flashed slightly, and there was a hint of playfulness in her eyes: "It's not okay to compete for favor with old love, has Concubine Jia changed to what she likes?" The good hall you are talking about is the one you frequent, right? ”

Wanqin nodded, and then remembered something, and said: "By the way, there is another thing, Your Majesty went to Shantang, it seems that he went to the Northern Xinjiang to participate in the war in order to subdue the master of Shantang, and that person has already promised His Majesty that he will leave in a few days, and His Majesty also gave the Zhenbei General order to that person." ”

"Even the general of Zhenbei can give it out with confidence, it can be seen that that person is enough to make people trust......" Shang Kelan lowered her eyes and muttered, and then said: "Do you know who that person is?" ”

That person must be the only person that His Majesty likes, and he needs to tell the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion to let them pay attention to their actions, not to offend that person easily, and it is even more inappropriate to associate with him.

In Wanqin's memory, the deep voice and the big and broad mind resurfaced.

Suddenly, her face was slightly red, and she said, "That person's name is Tie Niu, he lives on West Street in the capital, and he is a blacksmith. ”

In an instant, Shang Kelan paused, and the pupils in her eyes shrank slightly: Why is he?

Judging from yesterday's wedding in the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, the iron bull seems to have a lot to do with the eldest brother!

Your Majesty is not a fool, he didn't say a word at the scene yesterday, he seemed indifferent and didn't take everything to heart, but in fact, he saw everyone's movements, he must have noticed it, right?

Somehow, Shang Kelan was faintly worried about the arrival of her eldest brother who was about to leave far away.

Wanqin saw that her face was gradually darkening, thinking that she had said something wrong, so she couldn't help but shut up and said no more.

Yuliu helped Shang Kelan and reminded her in her ear: "Niangniang, someone is coming in front." ”

Hearing this, Shang Kelan raised her eyes and saw a chamberlain running towards her from the front.

Shang Kelan quietly regained her composure, stopped, and after only a moment's effort, the chamberlain hurriedly stopped in front of her, and hurriedly said: "Concubine Qi Chen, the chief manager of Fang Caifu asked the little one to tell you that His Majesty has let the eldest prince of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion go to the northern frontier in advance, and the eldest prince should leave the city gate soon!" ”
