Muling Palace

Shu Rusheng rarely went out of the palace when she married into the palace, and most of them were in the palace. Although the old princess handed over the palace steward to Shu Rusheng, Uncle Sun received Wang Yijun's words that major events passed through Shu Rusheng, and small matters were decided by himself. Shu Rusheng is in his courtyard, raising flowers when he is idle. Wang Yijun is also busy with official business, and he will come back to accompany Shu Rusheng whenever he is free.

In the afternoon of this day, Shu Rusheng was pruning flowers and plants, and Mama was helping beside her. Dark incense directs others to clean the courtyard.

"Dark Fragrance Girl"

When Dark Xiang was about to go to Shu Rusheng's side, she only heard someone call her name, she turned around and saw the person, so she ran to him in small steps, made a blessing and said, "General Wu Ying, why are you here?" ”

Wu Ying looked at the dark fragrance and still had the same as before, thinking that she had often seen her in Muling Palace, she thought that she would not follow up, but now that she came to the palace with the new princess, she had previous memories. He first made a fist salute and said slowly: "I know that Miss Dark Xiang has come to the palace to serve again, and it just so happens that the prince asked me to bring a message to the princess and send some pastries, and by the way, take a look at Miss Dark Fragrance." ”

As he spoke, he saw that he did have something in his hand, so he quipped: "The general hasn't seen him for many years, and he is still the same poor." ”

Dark incense said again: "Miss is there, you come with me." ”

As soon as the words fell, the two went to Shu Rusheng's side. When she arrived, Wu Ying knelt down and said, "My subordinate Wu Ying has seen the princess. ”

Shu Rusheng put down the scissors and looked at Wu Ying who was kneeling, a little strange but a little familiar, remembering that he was an errand boy next to Wang Yijun, and he might have seen it. She said slowly, "Get up, what's the matter?" ”

Wu Ying got up and handed the pastry in his hand to Dian Xiang, and said: "The prince asked his subordinates to bring the princess a message that she has to be busy with official business these days, and she may not have time to return home, so that the princess can rest assured." also said that Uncle Sun would handle all the small matters in the palace, just take a look. asked his subordinates to bring pastries from Jingshitang and let the princess rest more. ”

Shu Rusheng nodded with satisfaction with what he said, and said to him: "Seeing that you are sweating profusely, go and use some tea and tea fruit first and then go back to your life." ”

With that, she continued to trim. Dark Fragrance took him to the small kitchen, and Mama saw that they had gone far before she said, "Dark Fragrance, I should be an old acquaintance with him." ”

Shu Rusheng stopped, glanced at Mama, went to cut it again, and said, "What does Mama mean?" ”

"The slave thinks that Dark Xiang is not young, and Wu Ying is the person next to the prince, if he has a marriage with Dark Xiang, it would be better."

Shu Rusheng thought seriously about what Mama said, walked to a stone table and sat down, the servant next to her brought tea and put it on the table, she took a sip and said, "If the two of them are interested, I would like to." But they don't want to, so let's not mix it up. ”

Mama nodded and said, "The slave always feels that the two of them cherish each other, Miss wait and see." ”

Shu Rusheng nodded, she thought that Dark Xiang had followed her before, and now she was as attentive as before. If she can find a good home, she will be very happy. But I didn't want to force it, so I just wanted to wait for time to ask her.

kitchenette

Dark Xiang took Wu Ying to the small kitchen, this is not a kitchen, but a place where Shu Rusheng gives tea and pastries to his subordinates in the yard on weekdays. Dark Fragrance asked him to do it first, and went to the kitchen himself to let the kitchen people bring out some pastries.

After a while, Dark Xiang brought pastries and put them on Wu Ying's table, pouring tea for him.

Wu Ying took one and tasted it, and said, "Why haven't I eaten this pastry, it's so soft." ”

Dark incense sat next to him and said, "Of course, this is what Miss taught us to make by herself, you can taste it." ”

Wu Ying tasted it, looked at the dark fragrance and said, "The princess seems to be very good to you." ”

Dark Xiang nodded and said, "The princess is good to everyone, why did you talk about it." ”

He smiled and shook his head, and said, "No, I think the prince should be rationed to good people." ”

Darkincense heard something, but she couldn't say it. "Of course the princess is a good person, and she is also good to the prince."

evening

Shu Rusheng changed her clothes early, but she likes to read some books before going to bed. Mama and Dark Fragrance walked in to add some fragrance to her, she took the book and said to Dark Fragrance: "Dark Fragrance, do you know Wu Ying?" ”

The dark incense was burning incense, and when he heard Shu Rusheng asking, he replied: "Yes, I've seen it before." ”

Shu Rusheng sat down, with a smile on his face, and said, "Then what do you think of others?" ”

Dark Xiang was a little flustered when she heard this, and ran to her and knelt in front of her. Shu Rusheng and Mama were a little puzzled, and Mama said, "Dark Xiang, what's wrong with you?" ”

Dark incense bowed, and said with a serious face: "Princess, you don't know, I was taking care of the eldest princess's favorite Dunwan Jing'an county lord, the county lord told the slave before that he wanted to return to Jingzhou, and when he returned to Kyoto, he would let the slave continue to take care of him, but the slave will never get this care, Miss, you are my second master, and the slave swore in front of the Buddha after the county lord's accident that he would never leave the master again." The young lady slave is not cursing you, just to be able to take care of the young lady, and the other minions don't want to. ”

Shu Rusheng looked at her and felt a little distressed. Every time she saw Dark Fragrance, she was always happy, which was rare for her. The eldest princess also told her that she found her in-law's family but she didn't want to live or die, she thought she had a sweetheart, but now it seems that she has brought harm to her. She looked at her and said, "Go down and rest first, as if you didn't say these things." ”

Dark incense wiped away her tears, stood up and walked out of the outhouse. Shu Rusheng lost his smiling face and looked at the door. Seeing this, Mama picked up Shu Rusheng and said, "Miss, go to sleep first, I'll go and chat with Dark Xiang, maybe this matter will be over." ”

Shu Rusheng asked her to help her up, went to lie on the bed, and Mama put down the bed net, blew out the candle and went out to close the door.

She walked to Dark Fragrance's room, and saw that she was still sitting on the bed crying, she walked over and comforted her: "It's all bad to blame Mama, it was I who told Miss that you and Master Wu Ying might be a couple, and Miss wanted to match you." ”

Dark Xiang cried and looked at Mama and said, "I'm not blaming Miss, I just remembered the county lord." She's a good person but she falls like that.,Mama, do you say Miss? ”

Mama knew Shu Rusheng's identity, but she couldn't tell her, so she could only comfort: "Don't talk nonsense, who doesn't grieve her for what happened to the county lord." Now we only have to take good care of Miss, although this palace seems to be stable, but who knows when Miss will be in trouble, only take good care of her, protect her, is not our duty. And when I see Miss again tomorrow, I won't think of those words anymore, Miss will be sad, and the county lord is also Miss's sister. ”

Dark Fragrance nodded, put away her crying, and said, "Okay." ”

Mama got up and said to Dark Fragrance: "You have a good rest, and tomorrow you will return to your original appearance of Dark Fragrance." ”

With that, she walked out, and Dark Fragrance put away her crying and prepared to go out to fetch water and freshen herself.

Palace

It was late at night, and most of them had fallen asleep. In the huge palace, only the Dexin Hall is brightly lit. Ling Hengyi, the king of the Ling Dynasty, was still wearing court clothes, and when he was reading the music in front of the candlelight, Lin Zhenguo came over with tea, put it on the table and said, "Your Majesty, it's late at night. ”

Ling Hengyi looked up when he heard the words and saw that it was already dark, and he forgot the time. He stood up and stretched. said, "What day is it?" ”

Lin Zhenguo began to hesitate, and after a long time he said, "The tenth day of the sixth month." ”

Ling Hengyi listened to the days and looked out the window again. said: "It's the season when the peach blossoms are about to wither, tomorrow let the Internal Affairs Office send egg yolk crisp to the Queen Mother, and the scriptures of the Moon Warm Pavilion have been copied and sent to the Big Buddha Temple?" ”

Lin Zhenguo nodded, and said, "Yes, the minions let them do it during the day." The scriptures are already super good, and they are delivered during the day. As soon as the morning dawns, the master of the temple prays. ”

Ling Hengyi looked at the night and said, "I will also send a copy of the egg yolk cake to Muling Wangfu and give it to Shu Rusheng." ”

Lin Zhenguo said yes, and Ling Hengyi walked out after reading the last recital.

Anchang Hall

Although there was no candle lighting in An Changdian tonight, Jasmine did not go to sleep in the room as usual. She stayed in front of the Queen Mother's bed, lying in the bed tent, the Queen Mother knew that she was outside, and said, "Jasmine, go back to sleep." ”

Jasmine heard the voice, looked at the bed tent and said, "Every year the slave has to guard you this night, knowing that you will definitely not be able to sleep." ”

"Jasmine, do you think I'm atoning for my sins or do you really miss her."

Jasmine knew that the Empress Dowager was always a little sad every time she was accompanied by the royal family and her daughter on her birthday. also knew that she missed her, and always felt that he had killed her. "Of course I want to"

"But why didn't she give me a dream, did she complain about me?"

In this fourth year, Jasmine saw that she felt a little guilty about Qi Anya's death. Even though Ling Hengyi has been holding a meeting on the tenth day of June every year since she ascended the throne, it didn't make her feel better. "Master, what do you think, if the county lord knows that you think like this in your heart, how sad will you be. The master rests early, tomorrow is not the king's way for the county lord, if you don't show up, the county lord will be sad in the sky. ”

"It's been four years, every time I see the peach blossoms falling, I remember when she was on her birthday, she told me that she would come to accompany me whenever the peach blossoms bloomed, but I waited for four years, and the peach blossoms withered and I didn't see her coming."

Jasmine was silent, recalling the scene when Qi Anya came to bid farewell to the Empress Dowager when she returned to Beijing.

"Queen Mother, Ya'er comes to accompany you every year when the peach blossoms are in full bloom, making your favorite peach blossom cakes and peach blossom tea. Good no good. Qi Anya leaned on the arms of the Queen Mother back then.

"Okay, the mourning family is waiting for this peach blossom to bloom, it's good for you to accompany the mourning family, the old man, but you can't break your promise." The Queen Mother hugged her and looked at her cheeks dotingly.
