Chapter 290: The Envoy Visits
"What the hell is going on, have you found out?" Hua Tingting looked displeased, turned her head and glared at the maid next to her, and the maid stepped forward and said, "Qi Yu Niangniang, the slave maid just heard from the people in the Liuli Pavilion that it was Imperial Physician Liu who told the emperor the ins and outs of the matter, so the emperor only knew." ”
"Imperial Doctor Liu?" As far as he knows, Zheng Guifei is not a loser, this Imperial Doctor Liu has offended Zheng Guifei, and I am afraid that he will be unlucky in the future, these are not the most important, what matters now is how to make Zheng Guifei believe in his sincerity, so that he will not wear small shoes in the future. Hua Tingting wanted to go to Kunning Palace, and thought that Concubine Zheng Guifei had been grounded, and now she couldn't see her, so after thinking about it, she decided to go to the emperor to intercede for Concubine Zheng, first, she could explain to Concubine Zheng, and second, she could also show her face in front of the emperor. After figuring it out, he took the maid to the imperial study.
Hua Tingting is smarter than Zheng Guifei, and when she came to the vicinity of the imperial study, Hua Tingting did not rush to find the emperor, but sat in the pavilion next to her to enjoy the scenery, I don't know how long she waited, the emperor still didn't mean to come out, and the maid stepped forward to ask, "Niangniang, otherwise let's go back and have some meals first, and wait later." "It's noon now, they've been waiting here all morning, Niangniang is really patient, if she is her, she can't wait any longer.
Hua Tingting waved her hand, "No need, just wait here, it's noon now, and the emperor will come out to eat even if he's busy." Wait, if we can't wait, we'll think of another way. As he was talking, the emperor walked over with Gonggong Li, and when the maid saw this, she happily pointed to the distance and said, "Niangniang, you see it's the emperor." ”
"Ben Jieyu saw it, you whisper." Hua Tingting got up and walked towards the emperor, the emperor looked over here, and said with a displeased face after being slightly stunned, "Why are you here." "After experiencing the matter of Concubine Zheng Guifei, the last thing the emperor wants to see now is the concubines in the harem. Hua Tingting was not favored, so the emperor didn't feel anything wrong with talking like this, "The concubine sees the emperor, the emperor must have been busy all morning, it must have been very hard, it is better for the emperor to go to dinner first, and the concubine is not in a hurry to talk about anything later." ”
If he said it directly, the emperor might really leave, but when she said this, the emperor was embarrassed to refuse, and snorted coldly and said, "What are you looking for?" ”
"Your Majesty, don't hide it, the concubine is here to intercede for Concubine Zheng." Hua Tingting knelt on the ground and said word by word, "The reason why Niangniang deceived the emperor is because she has the emperor in her heart, and she really misses the emperor so much, and the concubine may know that Niangniang's way may be a little wrong, but is the emperor's punishment too heavy?" ”
"What, you're here to question me?" The emperor looked dissatisfied, "I have made up my mind, and this matter is over." After speaking, she strode forward, Hua Tingting saw this, got up and followed, "Your Majesty, the concubine knows that it is indeed a little abrupt for the concubine to come like this, but the concubine and the mother have been getting along for many days, how does the mother care about the emperor, the concubine has always looked at it, and the people in the palace say that the emperor and the mother are childhood sweethearts, and the love is outstanding, and the concubine also thinks so, in this case, why don't the emperor look at this matter from another eye." Maybe something bad can turn into a good thing. ”
"You mean to say that Concubine Zheng deceived me, and it has become a good thing?" Although the emperor was displeased, he had to admit that this Hua Jieyu was eloquent, if she was asked to receive Princess Fanbang, it might be a good choice, recently he has been thinking about Princess Fanbang letting the concubine in the harem come to receive her, the queen is not in good health, Concubine Zheng Guifei is now grounded, and the other concubines are either not good at family background, or their temperament is too soft, and they haven't found a suitable one after thinking about it for a few days, and now they ......
"Do you want me to pardon Concubine Zheng?" The emperor became interested. Hua Tingting nodded, "Please also ask the emperor to think twice." The emperor turned to look to the side and said with a smile, "It's not impossible, but you have to help me do something, if you do it well, I will not only relieve Concubine Zheng's feet, but also give you a promotion." ”
"Really?" How can there be such a good thing in the world, Hua Tingting waited for the emperor's next words with her heart. "Concubine Ai, have you heard the news that the envoys of Fanbang are coming to the capital?"
"The concubine heard about it." Could it be that this is what the emperor is going to say next? Hua Tingting was a little puzzled, she was just an unfavored concubine, what did such a big thing have to do with him, could it be that the emperor wanted him to receive it...... Sure enough, in the next second, the emperor said, "I want you to wait for Princess Fanbang to accompany her in the palace after she enters Beijing." Actually, he doesn't do anything, as long as he's satisfied. ”
"Thank you for the emperor's appreciation, the concubine will do her best." Hua Tingting just wanted to show her face to the emperor, who knew that she had received such a benefit, she was very happy, and after solving this trouble, the emperor's face was also a lot better, "Okay, you go and prepare first, when Princess Fanbang comes, I will send someone to tell you." ”
After returning to the imperial study, Gonggong Li stepped forward and asked, "Did the emperor really decide to let Hua Jieyu do this commentary?" The emperor glanced up at her, "Do you have any other better suggestions?" "Gonggong Li naturally knows what the emperor means, but even if you don't look for the queen for such a big thing, you should find Concubine Zheng Guifei, and it is not too much to say that it is not too good to find a Jieyu at random.
"Don't worry, I'm free and measured, I've already decided on this matter."
Three days later, the envoys of Fanbang visited, the emperor led the ministers to receive the envoys, and the envoys of Fanbang came all the way to the capital, and it was hard all the way, An Mingchen arranged people to the post house first. One of the envoys of Fanbang is named Jima, this person is very beautiful, in a group of people, everyone can see her at a glance, Jima is cheerful and loves to laugh, but her temper does not seem to be very good, and she has reprimanded two maids since she got off the carriage.
However, these things have nothing to do with An Mingchen, after settling everyone down and preparing to leave, Jima came out and stopped him, "I don't know if the lord has a big name, how will the courtiers call the lord in the future?" ”
"In Xia An Mingchen, Miss Jima has been working hard all the way, so let's rest first. If there is any need, the steward of the post station said that if they can't solve it, the lower official will come over tomorrow to help Miss Jima deal with it. Seeing that it was about to get dark, and An Mingchen was also going home, Miss Jima glanced at An Mingchen meaningfully, and nodded with a smile, "So, thank you Lord An today, we are new to your place, I don't know if Lord An will be willing to take us to the capital tomorrow." ”
"Naturally." The emperor instructed him to receive the envoys, and shopping was naturally included. After that, he left with the little servant. Jimma stood in the courtyard for a long time and didn't mean to go back, and the maid stepped forward, "Miss, what are you looking at?" ”
"It turns out that the man in the Central Plains is so handsome and beautiful, when my father described it before, I thought he was exaggerating and talking, but it turned out to be true." Jimma blushed, as if she had drunk wine, and when the maid saw this, she said with a worried face, "Isn't Miss sick, why is her face so red?" ”
"I'm not sick." It's just a man who fell in love with him. I didn't expect to meet such a satisfactory person on a trip to the capital, her luck is really good. Jima was thinking about An Mingchen all night, and asked people to invite An Mingchen early the next morning, An Mingchen just got up, and heard that someone from the post house was urging her, so she was going out early after eating casually, Huangfu Xue saw this, and hurriedly followed, "I heard that the envoy of Fanbang has arrived yesterday." How's that, is it pretty? ”
An Mingchen didn't know what he meant, so he smiled and hugged the person in his arms and kissed him, "No matter how they look, it has nothing to do with me, I only have a lady in my heart." Huangfu Xue was satisfied, but her mouth was full of disgust, "Flamboyant, aren't you going to be busy, hurry up." I'm going to the shop too. ”
"Recently, I don't want to prepare for my little sister's marriage, you can just let the shopkeeper take care of the shopkeeper's affairs." Huangfu Xue smiled, "They can indeed help me, but as long as I can handle the accounts myself, sooner or later it will be my business, so I can only be a little busy." Don't worry, I will remember my little sister's marriage. "Huangfu Xue and An Mingchen went out together. An Mingchen came to the post station, Jima had already packed up, and when he saw him coming, he waved to him with a smile, "Lord An......"
"Miss Jimma is tired, so she doesn't have to get up so early." An Mingchen stepped forward and saluted, "At this time, many shops have just opened, so why don't you take you to other places first." An Mingchen took them to a lot of places, and they returned to the front street near noon, and they felt the excitement as soon as they entered the front street. Jimma had a lot of delicious food in her hand and ate it as she walked.
"Lord An, these things are so delicious, I originally thought that the things in our Fanbang are the most delicious things in the world, but I didn't expect the things in your capital to be even more delicious. When I leave, I must bring some back with me, so that my father can taste them too. Jimma pointed to the shop in front of him and asked, "What kind of shop is this, red and red, skewered and strung together?"
"It's a sugar gourd, and it's a delicious fruit. Miss Jimma would you like to try it? An Mingchen turned his head and gestured to the little guy, the little guy stepped forward and bought two strings, Jima had never eaten sugar gourd, and he felt a little sour at first, but after getting used to it, he couldn't put it down, "It's delicious, it's delicious." Ann, where are we going next? ”
"We've been walking for a morning, Miss Jimma should be tired, why don't you find a teahouse to rest and go to dinner later?" An Mingchen was a little thirsty. Seeing that there was a teahouse next to it, he proposed, and Jimma took a look at it and felt that this teahouse was not bad, and nodded in agreement. Who knew that as soon as he entered, he ran into Xie Wuyi. Seeing this, An Mingchen frowned slightly, "Lord Xie, what a coincidence." ”
"Lord An, it's a coincidence, the official came to drink tea, this is Miss Jima." Xie Wuyi stepped forward to introduce, "Old Minister Xie Wujiao, how do you feel about Miss Jimma after visiting the capital for a morning?" ”
"Master Xie, the capital is much better than I imagined, not only there are many beautiful things, but also a lot of delicious food, which makes me happy."
