Chapter 463: Entering the palace for help

Chu Pei is suspicious by nature, Chu Lin is always aggrieved in every way, he is not for personal honor and disgrace, but for the well-being of the people of the Dashun Dynasty, the civil strife and catastrophe led to the destruction of the whole country, the people are not happy, after the chaos, it is not easy to live a stable life for more than ten years, even so, the people have to face floods from time to time, locust plagues and mountain bandits, and they are very difficult every year, and they really can't bear another war and strife, displacement, and separation.

Zhao Ji'an has been by Chu Lin's side for many years, his ears and eyes are touched, and almost everything he thinks is Chu Lin's shadow, the master has compassion for the world in his heart, and he doesn't want to fight for the throne of the world, how can he not know.

"It's useless to talk to you about this at this time, it's not too early, I'm leaving, if you have something, you can go to the Humble Garden to find me." Murong Xi seemed to have known that this would be the result, so he didn't say anything, got up and left.

In other words, Su Muyun returned to her own small courtyard, Ruyi also came in, and personally served her to change clothes and comb her hair, she grew up in Taihe Hall when she was a child, and the Queen Mother's preferences and preferences, she naturally knew better than Su Muyun.

Although Chu Lin has no feelings for Su Muyun, he is the sister of a sworn brother and respects her very much, so the people of the Yan Wangfu do not dare to treat her harshly. Clothes and jewelry are always new, and they are all the latest products of Luo Mei Xuan.

Ruyi picked out a slightly loose gold butterfly to wear a flower cloud brocade jacket, the placket cuffs are inlaid with snow-white silver fox fur, and the long green silk is twisted into a cloud bun, and the whole set of treasure-inlaid jade head is decorated in the hair, for a time, the people in the bronze mirror are rich and graceful.

Xiao Nian found the earrings, rings, and bracelets one by one, and Cha Pozi opened the box of rouge, gouache, and lipstick on the side, ready to wipe it on Su Muyun's face.

"Mama, don't use this." Su Muyun excused himself. Ruyi helped her dress like this, completely for the etiquette of entering the palace, at this time, if she was in her state of mind, she really had no emotions to dress up herself.

"Madame is naturally beautiful, just wipe a little lipstick and improve your complexion." Ruyi glanced at it.

"Thank you, Butler Ruyi." Su Muyun looked at Ruyi in the bronze mirror and nodded.

"Madame is polite, we are all for the prince, you prepare first, I'll take a look." Ruyi said, bent down, and hurried away.

After a short time, a two-horse carriage came out of Yanwang's Mansion and went straight to the palace gate, only Su Muyun and Ruyi were sitting in the carriage, Xu was too nervous, Su Muyun's silk handkerchief was twisted in his hand, and the tighter and tighter he was, and his slender fingers were strangled red and swollen, and she didn't notice it at all.

"What the hell!" The guards in front of the palace gate shouted and asked.

"This eldest brother, we are from the Yanwang Mansion, and my wife has a happy event to report to the Queen Mother." Ruyi got out of the car and saluted and smiled.

It was really a tiger falling in Pingyang, the phoenix gathered its wings, and the lanterns of Yanwang's Mansion were obviously hanging on the frame, these snobs, but they pretended not to see it, if this was in the past, who dared to stop them, they would have let the carriage go with a sneer.

"The top ordered, the queen mother's phoenix body is not in harmony, and no one is allowed to enter the palace to disturb it!" A tall squire, who seemed to be a small head, rolled his eyes.

"My wife, this is a great joy, if the Queen Mother knows, maybe, she will reward a few of you." Ruyi said, took out ten taels of silver from his sleeve, and secretly stuffed it into his hand.

"Ahem......" The tall guard glanced at the other guards, and then said, "You guys can hurry up, if you let the higher authorities know, our brothers won't be able to eat and walk around!" ”

"Soon, soon." Ruyi said again and again, and helped Su Muyun, who was wrapped in a crow-blue mink fur cloak, down.

Ruyi was very familiar with the path in the palace, she took Su Muyun to choose a small and fast path to walk through, the master and servant walked in a hurry, avoiding the inspection of the palace guards, and soon walked to the majestic gate of the Taihe Palace.

Su Muyun calmed down slightly, lifted her skirt and went up the steps, patted the door knocker, and a beautiful voice came from inside: "Who?" ”

"Su Muyun begged to see the Queen Mother." Su Muyun said through the door, she took a breath, trying to make her voice sound the same as usual.

"The Queen Mother is not happy, it's too late, you can come back tomorrow." Linlang didn't even open the door, and directly issued an eviction order.

"Please also ask my aunt to open the door, I have an excellent happy event to report to the Queen Mother." Su Muyun bit the corner of his mouth and said softly.

After a while, there was a "squeak", and the palace door was opened by the two older grandmothers, and Su Muyun and Ruyi hurriedly stepped in.

Linlang stood under the osmanthus tree with warm sleeves, bowed and saluted, and then, Su Muyun was taken to the Taihe Palace by Linlang, the palace was burned with silver silk charcoal, the warmth was melting, and there were a few red plum blossoms inserted in the large bottle of plain white banana leaf pattern on the incense case, red and yellow, very good-looking, and there was a quiet and elegant plum fragrance lingering everywhere under the hot smoke.

The Empress Dowager Wan Ruojin was wearing a homely brocade robe, sitting on the couch, accompanied by Queen Ning, their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were probably talking about themselves just now, and Queen Ning's eyes were slightly red.

"Meet the Queen Mother, meet the Queen Mother." Su Muyun came in and knelt on the ground to say goodbye.

"Get up, Linlang said, you have something happy to tell the mourning family, where does the joy come from?" Wan Ruojin raised his hand and motioned for her to get up.

"Isn't Mrs. Su happy?" Empress Ning, who was sitting at the bottom, said with some surprise.

"The concubine is guilty, please punish the queen mother." Su Muyun didn't dare to get up, still kneeling.

"According to Lin'er's temperament, the mourning family knew that you were lying, but I wonder what you are doing to be punished for lying so late, and you have to come to see the mourning family." Wan Ruojin always thought that after Chu Lin got married, Su Muyun was in bad health, so he didn't have much affection for her, and he didn't speak mercilessly.

"Concubine ......" Su Muyun looked up at Queen Ning, and stopped talking.

"But it doesn't hurt to say it, the queen is in charge of the harem, and the mother is the world, there is nothing that can't be listened to." Wan Ruojin waved his hand and retreated the maidservants in the palace.

"The concubine lied that she was happy, and it was a last resort, King Yan had an accident today, I took the risk to come and ask the Queen Mother to save him." Su Muyun said, tears rolling down her eyes.

"Nonsense, he also came to the mourning palace in the morning to say goodbye, what can happen to this son? Are you sick again? Wan Ruojin leaned out half of his body from the couch and asked eagerly.

"In the evening, a holy decree came, King Yan...... King Yan was imprisoned by Dali Temple! Su Muyun's throat seemed to be blocked, and he said hoarsely.

"What!" Wan Ruojin was very surprised and stood up suddenly.

"Queen Mother, don't worry, wait for me to ask." Empress Ning hugged Wan Ruojin, gently stroked her back, and helped her back on the couch.

"Mrs. Su, what happened? Please listen to it as it is. "Empress Ning has been in charge of the Sixth Palace for many years, so she is calmer in the end.

Su Muyun talked in detail about the poisoning case on the day of Lidong, and kept talking about Du Ying being taken away by Yuan Hong just now, but she didn't say anything about Murong Xi giving Yuan Hong a trick.

"Is the emperor crazy?" Wan Ruojin slapped the table in pain.

"The queen mother is angry, I'm afraid there are other hidden secrets." Empress Ning and Chu Zhan are husband and wife in the end, so they can't excuse him.

"What is the big thing that deserves him to treat his own brother like this! No, I'll go to him right away and ask him for an explanation! Wan Ruojin was anxious and hurriedly called someone to change his clothes.

Linglong and the others had already known the general situation of the matter from Ruyi's mouth, and they couldn't help but sigh, and when they heard the call, they didn't dare to slack off at all, and just rushed forward to serve.

Wan Ruojin changed her clothes, saw that Su Muyun was still kneeling, walked up to her and said, "Let Linlang send you back first, and Ming'er will have Xin'er." ”

"Empress Dowager Xie!" Su Muyun kowtowed, and the master and servant followed Linlang away.

Linlang walked on the palace avenue, sent Su Muyun out of the palace gate, and watched the carriage leave.

"Auntie, is this lady really happy?" It was freezing cold, and the tall guard sniffed, rubbed his hands, and leaned over to ask.

Linlang is the palace maid sent to Taihe Palace, most of the guards know her, and because she has a good temper, everyone is willing to associate with her.

"Such a big happy event, how can there be a fake, it's just that Prince Yan's heir is expensive, and the month is still young, so it's not appropriate to talk about it everywhere." Linlang said as she took out twenty taels of silver from her rabbit fur sleeve and held it in her palm, "You have worked hard today, the Queen Mother is happy, and I specially reward you, and I will go and drink a glass of wine to warm up." ”

"Empress Dowager Xie's reward, Aunt Xie takes care of us, we are very tight-mouthed, and we will never talk nonsense." The tall guard smiled stammeringly, took the money, and carefully put it into his arms, where there was another ten taels of silver.

"That's it." Linlang smiled softly at him and turned back.

"She smiled at me!" The tall guard was so intoxicated by the spring breeze smile that he stroked his beardless chin and laughed a few times.

In the Zihuan Palace, the red candle was feverish, Gonggong Li stood at the foot of the steps and bowed down to polish the ink, Chu Pei was concentrating on reviewing the recitals, and there were a few recitals in front of the dragon case, obviously, I don't know who annoyed him and what happened, and he had just lost his temper.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is here." A small chamberlain received the news and hurried in to report it.

"Now?" Chu Pei dropped the red pen and looked up at the window, the sky was lower, and it was already dark.

Gonggong Li trotted out and let Wan Ruojin in at the gate of the hall.

"Mother, your head stroke has not yet healed, and on such a cold day, you really shouldn't come out and walk around, just send people around you if you have something." Chu Pei got up and helped her sit down.

"Mother and son are connected, Lin'er was imprisoned by your holy decree and sent to Dali Temple, there is no charcoal stove there, how can he live tonight!" Wan Ruojin said, becoming more and more sad.

"Who is this chewing the root of your tongue in your ear, the Meiji poisoning case has caused great public anger, and Lao Jiu wants to defend the culprit, I have to make this decision, let him go to Dali Temple to sober up for a few days, eat, live and keep warm, and he will not be harsh." Chu Pei said with a smile.

"How could the girl of the Du family be poisoned, this must have been done by someone who was jealous of Mei Ji's good business, why didn't Yuan Hong of the Criminal Department find out, but put the dignified prince in prison, what is the reason!" Wan Ruojin said angrily.

"Lao Jiu is hindering everywhere in order to protect Mei Ji, how can Yuan Hong check down!" Chu Pei twisted his eyebrows slightly.

"Yuan Hong can't find out if he is incompetent, according to the mourning family, the last time the Mei Ji arson murder case has no result so far, and now there is another Mei Ji poisoning case, this is in Jiangling City, there are two big cases at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the criminal department should have been replaced a long time ago, you are good, don't bring him to justice, but treat your brother so viciously!" Wan Ruojin reprimanded.

"The queen mother keeps saying that we are brothers, but you clearly protect him more, and you protect him for no reason! My throne will be given to him one day! Chu Pei's face was gloomy, and a faint anger appeared.
