991. Worship
Today, the ladies of the Zheng family went out collectively, of course, including the eldest lady of Xifu, Chen and Zheng Wanying, Zheng Wanying saw Xu Shu, and smiled at Xu Shu behind Chen.
Although Xifu is related to Dongfu, they are not close, and the death of Prince Long An has little impact on Xifu, so Xifu's mood and demeanor are much better than Dongfu's.
Mrs. Zheng saw that Mrs. Zheng Si had brought Xu Shu with her, and she wanted to say a few words, it was not a good thing to take the children to join in the fun! But after seeing that the Chen family brought Zheng Wanying, he couldn't help it, at this time, one more person would have more strength, and he couldn't offend Xifu, especially between Xifu and Dongfu because Chen and Zheng Zhiwen had contracted strange diseases one after another.
Although Prince Long An was canonized as the crown prince, but because it was posthumously sealed, and because Da Yin had not had a prince for many years, the East Palace was in disrepair, and it couldn't be cleaned up for a while, and Prince Long An died in King Qing's Mansion, and there were many people in the palace, in order to cover up the real cause of Prince Long'an's death, so Prince Long An is still in Qingwangfu, but all the attendants in Qingwang's Mansion have been changed, and when he stepped into Qingwang's Mansion again, there were unfamiliar faces everywhere he looked.
There are a lot of orders to come to worship, Mrs. Zheng walked slowly in front, the four concubines of the Zheng family followed in turn, Mrs. Zheng Si and the Chen family walked last, after the two glanced at each other, Mrs. Zheng Si whispered to Xu Shu, "Xiao Jiu, you and Sister Ying, you two children don't go to the mourning hall, you go around the neighborhood, we will look for you later!" ”
Xu Shu nodded, "Since we're here, let's go see Seventh Cousin!" ”
"It's good! Go ahead! "The Zheng family has come to Qingwangfu, but they don't go to see Zheng Wanli, so they can't say anything.
"Sister Wanying, let's go!" Xu Shu took Zheng Wanying to Zheng Wanli's residence.
Because the master of the palace died, and died in the early morning of the first day of the new year, so the atmosphere in the whole palace was particularly heavy, the red lanterns hung up during the New Year were all replaced with a piece of vegetarian, and the colorful flowers and trees specially cultivated for the New Year were all removed, and the whole palace did not see the slightest bright and festive color, but it was completed in just one day.
When she came to the courtyard where Zheng Wanli lived, she found that the courtyard door was closed, Zheng Wanying said strangely, "Seventh cousin lives here?" ”
Xu Shu nodded, "Yes!" ”
"Why do you close the door in broad daylight?" Zheng Wanying looked strange, but because Xu Shu said that Zheng Wanli lived here, she asked the girl to knock on the door.
After knocking for a long time, I finally heard someone coming, the door opened a crack half a foot wide, and a human head poked out, very raw, vigilant, "Who are you looking for?" ”
Xu Shu has heard this voice, but the face has not been seen, Xu Shu knows where this person came from, it seems that the Empress Dowager not only changed the people of Qingwangfu, but also the people around Zheng Wanli, it seems that Mrs. Zheng San will not see Zheng Wanli today, so it's okay, the province is making trouble!
"This is Zheng ...... Aunt Zheng's residence? Xu Shu asked, Zheng Wanli's grade was also gone with the deprivation of King Qing's title, so she could only be called aunt.
The palace maid glanced at Xu Shu up and down, and then looked at Zheng Wanying on the side, the vigilance on her face did not dissipate, and she did not answer Xu Shu's question directly, but asked, "Who are you, what is the matter with Aunt Zheng?" ”
Zheng Wanying also felt that something was wrong, and whispered to Xu Shu, "Isn't this person from the side of the seventh cousin?" Why don't you even know Sister Yi? ”
Xu Shu shook her head lightly and said to the palace maid at the door, "We are the cousins of the Zheng family, and we came to worship Prince Long An today, so by the way, we came to visit the Zheng family!" ”
The palace maid's face slackened slightly, "It turned out to be the young lady of the Zheng Mansion!" The two young ladies have a heart, but Aunt Zheng is too sad and doesn't want to see outsiders, so the two young ladies should go back! ”
Xu Shu and Zheng Wanying glanced at each other, Xu Shu bowed her head and signaled to the palace maid and then pulled Zheng Wanying away, and watched the two go away until the palace maid closed the courtyard door.
Zheng Wanying finally couldn't help but ask Xu Shu in a low voice, "Sister Yi, do you feel that something is wrong?" At this time, no matter how sad the seventh cousin is, it is impossible not to see her mother's family! And that servant girl didn't look like a subordinate at all, she must have deliberately stopped us! ”
Xu Shu said, "It doesn't matter if she does it on purpose, or not!" All she had to do was to keep Seventh Cousin from having any contact with the outside world, lest there be any trouble! Even if something really is wrong, it's not something we can ask about! From the moment she came out of the cabinet, she was not a member of the Zheng family, and her affairs had nothing to do with the Zheng family! ”
Zheng Wanying nodded as if she didn't understand, "Is it because the prince is dead?" The seventh cousin is his concubine, and he has no children, after the prince is buried, will the seventh cousin be sent to the temple like the old aunts in the family who have no children? ”
"That's fine!" Xu Shu shook her head slightly, "Let's go, let's find a secluded place to sit and wait for our mother and aunt to come over!" It's weirdly cold out there! ”
"Good!"
Fortunately, most of the people in the house were busy with the funeral of Prince Long An in the mourning hall, and there were not many people walking around, Xu Shu and Zheng Wanying didn't see a single figure along the way, and they couldn't ask for directions, and finally found a room in the corner of the garden, there was still a charcoal fire in the house, it should be a house where the people who watched the garden rested, but at the moment people didn't know where they went, although the house was simple, but Xu Shu was afraid of the cold, so he couldn't care so much.
After roasting next to the charcoal fire for a while, Xu Shu warmed up a lot, but because the people used ordinary charcoal, there was smoke from time to time, and the smell of charcoal was strong, Zheng Wanying choked and coughed.
Xu Shu said, "Then let's go inside, it's warmer inside, and we don't have to suffer from this smoke and fire!" ”
"Good! Sister Yi still loves me! Zheng Wanying's coughing eyes were red, and when she heard this, she hurriedly pulled Xu Shu inside.
As soon as Xu Shu took Zheng Wanying to live in the inner room, she heard footsteps outside, and they were getting closer and closer, as if they were coming to the room they were in.
"Shh~" Seeing that Zheng Wanying was about to speak, Xu Shu hurriedly booed.
"What's wrong?" Zheng Wanying asked in a low voice.
"Someone is coming......"
"It's the one who was supposed to be in this house, right? We told her that she wouldn't drive us away! ”
Xu Shu shook her head, "Don't make a sound, it's not a subordinate!" She heard the clashing of the rings and the grinding of the silk, and what servant could wear gold and silver?
