After a long time, a low female voice came from the top: "That's it, you speak quietly, the emperor is taking a lunch break in the inner hall, please Ye is not necessary." Mama Qin, sit down. “

"Empress Dowager Xie!" I heard that the emperor was resting in the inner hall. All the daughters thanked them quietly, and then carefully sat down on the chair, but Aunt Jingyue was not easy to sit down, so she only stood on the side.

The queen smiled and said: "It's just a few flowers, look at what scares you, since the queen mother wants it, this palace naturally won't say anything, don't take this matter to heart, you know?" ”

The daughters heard this. They all smiled wryly, and with the boldness, they said: "It was because we were ignorant and destroyed the chrysanthemums planted by the mother, and it is rare for the mother to be generous and not careless, but I don't have anything in my heart, and I always want to do something to make up for the mother." Those picked chrysanthemums, I am going to make some chrysanthemum cakes to make amends to the mother, I don't know if the mother can agree? ”

This was originally proposed by Yao Yulan, and this daughter rushed to say it.

But Yao Yulan didn't care.

Making chrysanthemum cakes? When the queen heard this, her eyes flashed suddenly, and the nine-winged soaring red gold step on her head shook, and the dazzling light suddenly pierced all the daughters under her speechless, but she herself smiled softly: "What should I do, this is also worth your special trip to say?" ”

"Actually, it's mainly to apologize to the mother...... Wang Yanfei said in a low voice. At this point, she really regretted it.

The queen heard this. glanced at her, and his smile was as warm as spring: "Miss Wang also entered the palace today?" ”

Zhang Yan suddenly interjected on the side and said: "Niangniang, today in the imperial garden, Miss Wang picked the most, but I didn't pick it at all!" ”

She was not angry in her heart, and she couldn't help but expose Wang Yan flying on the spot.

"Oh? Is it? When the queen heard this, she immediately turned her head to look at Zhang Yan and said lightly: "This is also because Miss Wang thinks about how filial she is to the Queen Mother, and those who don't know are not guilty." How can Hongu blame you? He let out a long yawn. Obviously a little impatient.

Zhang Yan touched this nail that was neither soft nor hard, and immediately stopped talking, she had nothing to say, the queen's words already showed that she was narrow-minded, why did she bother here?

At this moment, Ren Jiaying on the side suddenly spoke: "Queen Mother, we are really sorry to disturb your lunch break, so I will retreat so that I can make some chrysanthemum cakes to make amends for your sins." ”

She was a smart person, and knew that the queen was impatient to deal with them, so she said it directly.

Unexpectedly, before the queen could answer, Aunt Jingyue on the side suddenly stepped forward, took out the box and said, "Queen Mother." This is the Queen Mother's gift to you to make amends, because of her words, it caused the chrysanthemums you worked hard to plant were destroyed. The Queen Mother couldn't help it, so she ordered the slave to send this box

Zi Dongzhu came over, Wang Niangniang must accept it. ”

When she said this, Jingyue was sure that the queen would not accept this box of Dongzhu. This is the Queen Mother's thing, is it so easy to take? Determined about all this, she was very proud in her heart, she waited for the queen to shirk, so that the emperor who was resting in the inner hall would definitely be alarmed.

When the emperor knows about this, no matter what, he will punish the queen severely!

And this is the fundamental purpose of the Queen Mother.

However, what Ling Jingyue didn't expect was that when the queen heard her words, not only did she not refuse, but said with a smile: "Then thank you to the queen mother, it just so happens that the longevity festival is coming, and when the time comes, the palace will order the craftsman to make these pearls into a pearl shirt and give it to the queen mother, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone." ”

Her voice was soft and pleasant: "Of course, in addition, the palace will also prepare an extra birthday gift for the Queen Mother." ”

She didn't directly refuse, but these things had to be sent back to the Queen Mother in the end, so it would be impossible for the Queen Mother to take the opportunity to stir up trouble. Not to mention that the emperor will be alarmed today.

Jing Yue's eyes flashed, and she immediately said: "Niang Niang said that she laughed, since this pearl was given to Niang Niang, it is Niang Niang's, so you don't have to bother so much." ”

"You also said that these were given to this palace by the queen mother, so how to deal with them is a matter of this palace." The queen smiled slightly, gave Mama Qin on the side a look, and ordered her to step forward to take the box in Jingyue's hand, and said with a smile: "This palace wants to make a pearl shirt for the queen mother, does it have anything to do with you?" ”

"Jingyue doesn't dare." Jingyue hurriedly lowered her head.

The queen smiled again and said, "Then may I ask, is there anything else?" ”

Until this moment, Jing Yue already knew that there was no power to return to the sky, thinking of the anger that the Queen Mother might have later, she gritted her teeth and spoke again: "Yes! The queen mother and her old man knew that she had wronged the queen mother, so she specially ordered the slaves and maids to bring these young ladies to ask for guilt. ”

"Hehe, this palace has just said it, and I will never blame them, that chrysanthemum cake is in the heart of this palace." The queen said lightly, said, looked around, and asked again, "Do you have anything else?" ”

Everyone shook their heads: "No! Empress. ”_

Jingyue looked at everyone, then at the queen, and finally lowered her head and said, "The slave is fine." ”

"Then please go back! The palace is lacking, and next time I will invite Aunt Jingyue and all the daughters to come to Kunning Palace as guests. The queen said with a smile.

"Yes, sissy." When everyone got this, they hurriedly retreated, and Jingyue naturally followed.

After they left, when only the queen and Mama Qin were left in the empty hall, the queen snorted coldly: "The queen mother is really getting more and more out of the stream!" Even these methods are used! ”

Mama Qin didn't dare to echo the queen's words, so she only asked in a low voice, "Niangniang."

, so that's it? ”

"If you don't forget it, how else can you get it? The queen mother gave everything for the emperor's country, and the palace only lost a few chrysanthemums, what is this? The queen sneered.

Mama Qin listened to this on the side, but she didn't know how to answer. When Jingyue returned to Cining Palace with a thousand daughters, she saw that all the palace maids in the main hall had solemn expressions, and when she asked, she knew that the queen mother's abdominal pain was unbearable just now, and the imperial doctor of the Tai Hospital was treating her inside.

Unbearable abdominal pain? That's no small feat! Jingyue was taken aback. Hurriedly let the daughters wait in the outer hall, and hurriedly walked in.

In the inner hall, the queen mother was lying on the bed, her face was haggard, and she had already suffered from prostration, Jingyue was frightened when she saw it, and hurriedly withdrew to ask someone to report this matter to the emperor and queen, and sent someone out of the palace to deliver the news to the Jingwang Mansion.

All the daughters in the hall looked at Jing Yue's tense face, and they all had a bad feeling in their hearts, and when they heard that the queen mother's abdominal pain was unbearable, they were all frightened. He gave blood estimates.

The scene in the garden has just passed, and now the queen mother's abdominal pain is unbearable, and their trip to the palace today is really unsmooth!

Zhang Yan is the most favored by the Queen Mother on weekdays. At this time, when she heard that the Queen Mother was sick, she couldn't stay any longer, and insisted that Jingyue accompany her to the inner hall to visit the Queen Mother, but was severely stopped by Jingyue: "Miss Zhang, the slave knows that you care about the Queen Mother, but at this time, the Imperial Doctor is in the main hall to diagnose the Queen Mother's pulse, and you are really not suitable to go in." ”

"Oh, that's it!" Zhang Yan's face was full of disappointment.

The rest of the daughters are worried. But it is not as obvious as Zhang Yan's performance, and Wang Yanfei is because the blow of the Imperial Garden just now is too big, and he doesn't dare to be the first bird at this time.

If they didn't hear the news that the Queen Mother Pingye was fine, they wouldn't leave.

When the news came back to King Jing's Mansion, Xuanyuan Jingxi was eating with Gu Ruoxi, and he was stunned for several seconds before he suddenly stood up and walked towards the inner hall.

Gu Ruoxi looked at his anxious appearance, and hurriedly ordered Ziyi to go in to help him change his clothes, but before he finished speaking, he saw Xuanyuan Jingxi striding out of it, his clothes were not changed, but there was an extra fist-sized box in his hand.

"Ziyi, you take a good look at Lanyi at home, don't let her have an accident. I'll go to the palace! Xuanyuan Jingxi said hurriedly, his feet did not stop, and in a moment he had already left the main hall and walked towards the mansion. Mo Yun had already gone out to prepare the horses.

Gu Ruoxi originally wanted to ask him something. But Xuanyuan Jingxi didn't give her this opportunity and left, she was stunned for a long time before she spoke: "The Queen Mother is so dignified, how could she suddenly fall ill?" ”

Ziyi shook his head and said, "I don't know this very well, but I heard that the Queen Mother summoned a number of young ladies in the capital today. ”

Gu Ruoxi shook his head when he heard this: "Since those women were summoned into the palace by the Queen Mother, presumably

It's too late to curry favor, how can you assassinate the Queen Mother? Even if they were given a thousand dares, no one would dare to do so. The Queen Mother suddenly fell ill. It must be because of something else. ”

"We're guessing here at most, let's wait for the prince to come back! When the time comes, it will be all clear. Ziyi glanced at Gu Ruoxi and said.

Gu Ruoxi nodded, and had no intention of eating, poured a cup of tea and drank it slowly, and then said, "I didn't expect the prince to miss the queen mother so much." ”

Purple glanced at her. smiled lightly and said, "If you are sick, the prince must be running faster than this." ”

Not necessarily!

Gu Ruoxi glanced at Ziyi and did not answer.

Just after noon, a light rider swept through the prosperous streets like a light horse, and galloped all the way to the gate of the palace, where it stopped.

When the guards saw that it was His Royal Highness King Jing, they hurriedly knelt down and asked Ye, but Xuanyuan Jingxi stopped him with a wave of his hand.

"You can help watch my horse, and you have to have a half-point difference. Watch out for your heads! Xuanyuan Jingxi jumped off his horse, handed the reins to the guard, and repeatedly admonished, "Did you hear clearly? ”

The guard at the door was trembling with fright, and nodded his head like pounding garlic: "Yes, yes, yes!" His Royal Highness King Jing, the little ones will definitely take a good look at your mount! ”

Xuanyuan Jingxi turned around and strode towards the palace.

The guard wiped the beads of sweat from his face behind him.

A quarter of an hour later, Xuanyuan Jingxi arrived at the gate of Cining Palace, and was not surprised to see the emperor parked at the gate of the palace, this is the palace, if the queen mother has an accident, the first to arrive must be the emperor and queen, Xuanyuan Jingxi is not surprised at all, he did not stop at the door, and went directly to the palace.

Who knew that as soon as he entered the hall, the first thing he saw was a group of warblers and Yanyan, the first one was Zhang Yan.

"See the prince!" As soon as Zhang Yan saw Xuanyuan Jingxi, a trace of joy suddenly appeared on her beautiful face, and she hurriedly bent down to invite Ye, and all the daughters followed behind her, and they all echoed.

Xuanyuan Jingxi's face turned black in an instant, his mother was in danger at the moment, how could he pay attention to these women? Especially Zhang Yan, the smile on her face deeply stung Xuanyuan Jingxi, the queen mother was sick, these people didn't have a little sadness!

In fact, he generalized in a partial way, among this group of women, except for Zhang Yan and Wang Yanfei, who were overjoyed to see him, the rest of the people were worried.

But no matter what, Xuanyuan Jingxi was disgusted when he saw this group of people, especially at this time!

He paid no attention to any of them and went into the inner sanctum.

Zhang Yan still maintained the posture of inviting leaves, and she didn't react for a long time, until she heard Wang Yanfei next to her snort and laugh, then she reacted, and couldn't help but look angrily: "What is the Queen Mother's illness, you still have the heart to laugh here, it is really her heart to be punished!" ”

Wang Yanfei was angry for a long time, and finally at this time

Finding an excuse to refute, she snorted coldly: "You still have the face to say me? When I first saw His Royal Highness King Jing, I don't know what your happy face was! You think I don't know, do you? ”

Zhang Yan was suddenly powerless to refute, and when she saw Xuanyuan Jingxi at first glance, she couldn't hide the joy in her heart. However, she is not the kind of woman who is indifferent to the ridicule of others, especially Wang Yanfei, who ridiculed her, and immediately sneered: "I am happy because the prince is here, and he must have a way to cure the queen mother's illness, so I am happy, but what are you happy about?" Could it be that you also want to marry into the Jingwang Mansion? Don't think about it, it is possible for women in the world, but you Wang Yanfei is impossible at all! ”

When Wang Yanfei heard this, she immediately became angry, no matter how much Zhang Yan laughed at her on weekdays, she wanted to eat swan meat, but today in front of so many people, he humiliated her so much! Isn't it because she is the daughter of the right prime minister? But her father is also the prime minister! Why do everyone have the same status and status, but the treatment is so different?

She rolled up her sleeves and wanted to go up and beat Zhang Yan, but at this time, she was stopped by Ren Jiaying on the side: "Miss Wang, don't quarrel, okay?" The emperor and the queen mother are both in the inner hall, arguing with the masters, don't you want to die? ”

When Wang Yanfei heard this, the expression on her face suddenly became a little unnatural, she glared at Zhang Yan hatefully, and then stopped talking.

Zhang Yan saw her like this, and her heart suddenly became proud.

The hall suddenly quieted down, and Ren Jiaying persuaded Zhang Wang and the others to stop, so she retreated into the crowd and did not speak again.

Zhang Yan sat there, looking in the direction of the inner hall, her eyes full of worry and longing. Even though she couldn't see anything through the screen.

But I didn't know what came to mind, Zhang Yan's eyes suddenly lit up......

King Jing came to the palace, and he came alone, so that means that the slut in blue is in King Jing's mansion at the moment......

Thinking about it, she found an excuse, turned around and walked out of the main hall.

……

Xuanyuan Jingxi hurried all the way to the inner hall, and sure enough, he saw the emperor and the queen sitting beside the queen mother's bed, and he bent over and asked Ye Dao: "Brother and brother see the emperor, sister-in-law!" ”

"Get up! Seventh brother, you came really fast. The emperor waved his hand at Xuanyuan Jingxi.

"Brother Xie Huang!" Xuanyuan Jingxi said, then stood up, a palace person had already moved a chair over, and put it next to the emperor's head, but at this moment, the queen mother on the bed heard her son's voice, and immediately called: "Jing'er ......" and stretched out her hand tremblingly.

"My son is here!" Xuanyuan Jingxi hurriedly responded, but he sat too far away, and could not get the hand of the queen mother, the queen on the side saw this, immediately got up and gave up the seat, even the emperor was ready to get up, but at this time, the queen mother spoke again: "Your Majesty, don't move when you sit......"

"Yes, Queen Mother." The emperor glanced at the queen beside him and immediately responded.

Xuanyuan Jingxi confessed his guilt and sat down in the seat where the queen had just been.

The queen didn't sit still, she just stood there, looking at the scene in front of her from a distance, with a cold smile on her lips.

Fortunately, she accepted Dongzhu who had just been sent, otherwise, wouldn't everyone think that she was angry about the Queen Mother's illness? Obviously, the chrysanthemums she had carefully maintained for a whole year were ruthlessly ravaged, but it was all her fault in the end!

Why? Why does this old witch always look at herself unpleasantly? Could it be that it's really because he was born in the Ye family?

The queen couldn't figure it out.

At this moment, the queen mother on the Luohan bed grabbed her little son's hand for a while, and suddenly turned her head to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, a few girls came into the palace today, and I heard that the mourning family wanted to see the chrysanthemums blooming in the imperial garden, so they picked the chrysanthemums planted by the queen without authorization, and the mourning family has been reluctant to go, queen, queen, queen ......"

The queen on the side hurriedly knelt down and said: "Queen Mother, you don't have to go to your heart about this, the chrysanthemums I planted were originally meant to honor your old man, pick them up, and the queen mother, you must not take this matter to heart, otherwise, the daughter-in-law will blame herself for death." ”

When the emperor heard this, he frowned and glanced at the queen, and said, "Queen, since you know that the queen mother likes chrysanthemums, why don't you pick them yourself and send them over?" Instead, you have to call a few girls to do your filial piety for you, what do you mean? ”

"The emperor atoned for his sins! The concubine knows her mistake! The queen said busily.

"Queen Mother, you see, the queen has already known her mistake, next time she will definitely not make such a mistake again, don't go to your heart, you are angry, this distressed is still the sons and the seventh emperor brother!"

When the Queen Mother heard this, she immediately nodded: "The mourning family is not angry, but I am afraid that I have wronged the queen, Your Majesty, you should tell her to get up!" ”
