490. Admitting mistakes
Mama Yuan was startled, she deliberately blocked it just now, she didn't want to block it, she couldn't help but mention it, looking at Xu Shu nervously, Mrs. Zheng Si frowned, and the hand holding the chess piece was fixed.
But Xu Shu's hand holding the chess piece did not move at all, as if Li Meiren was calling someone else.
Yes, it's someone else...... Li Meiren's name is Xu Shu, and she is already Zheng Wanyi, the ninth lady of the Zheng family!
Li Meiren stepped forward and glanced at Mrs. Zheng Si suspiciously, and asked Xu Shu again, "Cousin, where have you been these days, and the queen is also ...... That's it, let's not talk about it, but it worries me badly! As he spoke, he patted Xu Shu's arm affectionately.
Xu Shu looked at Li Meiren in astonishment, and asked in an uncertain tone, "Beauty...... Are you talking to me? ”
Li Meiren was stunned, "Cousin? What's wrong with you? Why don't you seem to know me anymore? Li Meiren stretched out her hand to probe Xu Shu's forehead, and her movements were extremely close.
Xu Shu was so frightened that she jumped away like a frightened rabbit, avoiding Li Meiren's closeness, and the chess pieces in her hand also fell on the chessboard in a panic and ruined a good game of chess, "Mei...... Beauty...... Did you recognize the wrong person? I...... I don't recognize you......" The girl's delicate shyness was just right, as if it was really the first time they wanted to see it.
Mama Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The beauty has recognized the wrong person, this is Miss Zheng Jiajiu, this is Mrs. Zheng Si, and Miss Zheng Jiu's mother, today they are here to ask the queen mother to say goodbye, and the queen mother went to the imperial study, so they are playing chess in the courtyard to pass the time!" ”
Li Meiren looked at Xu Shu in disbelief, no matter how she looked at it, she didn't feel that she recognized the wrong person, "No, how could I recognize the wrong person?" This is obviously ......"
"Beauty!" Afraid that Li Ying'er would say that name, Mama Yuan hurriedly called out lightly, "This is indeed Miss Zheng Jiu, the niece of the queen's mother!" ”
"That's not right!" Li Ying'er didn't understand the point of Mama Yuan's words, and insisted on trying to distinguish clearly, "She is clearly her cousin, I am absolutely not mistaken!" ”
"The beauty didn't recognize the wrong person, could it be that the queen mother recognized the wrong person?" Mama Yuan looked at Li Ying'er politely and oppressively.
Li Ying'er's pupils shrank, and she suddenly understood why Xu Shu disappeared from the palace, and why the queen didn't mention Xu Shu's disappearance after Xu Shu disappeared, it turned out that it was because there was really no more Xu Shu in this world, and Xu Shu had become another person!
Immediately, Li Ying'er didn't dare to argue anymore, pretended to look at Xu Shu a few more times, and said with annoyance, "This Miss Zheng Jiu is really a little similar to my cousin, I actually saw it as a person in this blink of an eye, and after a closer look, I found that it was not, I saw it badly, and I asked Miss Jiu not to blame for the abruptness!" ”
Xu Shu hurriedly shook her head, and then looked at Mrs. Zheng Si for help, Mrs. Zheng Si lovingly held Xu Shu's hand and comforted her before saying to Li Meidao, "There are not a few people in this world who look alike, and it doesn't matter if a beauty recognizes the wrong person, the child is young and doesn't know how to be polite, so don't keep the beauty in mind!" ”
"How can it, Madame is too worried!"
After greeting each other like this, Li Ying'er finally got out of Kunning Palace with a burst of incense, and her face immediately gloomy when she left the palace gate, the queen really still guarded herself, seeing that she was favored because of Xu Shu's incense, she hurriedly took Xu Shu away, for fear that she would get another benefit from Xu Shu, and Xu Shu made incense for the queen, Xu Shu is used to making some incense with strange effects, so what is the use of the incense she gives to the queen......
Li Ying'er suddenly wondered how Xu Shu started to have a relationship with the queen, in the past, I could only hear that Xu Shu was very liked by the queen mother, how did Xu Shu climb to the queen? Why does the queen look at Xu Shu differently? Speaking of which, the queen seems to have given birth to a princess after getting acquainted with Xu Shu...... Li Ying'er's eyes flashed with incomparably eager light.
Mama Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, "It's finally gone, the fourth lady and the ninth lady will later, and the slave maid will change the hot tea for the two of them!" "Since the last time the emperor was fortunate to Li Ying'er, Li Ying'er's status in the palace has been greatly improved, and Li Ying'er, who tasted the sweetness, came to Kunning Palace in three days.
Xu Shu also regained her normal color, picked up the chess pieces that she had dropped, and began to review with her memory, Li Ying'er smelled the familiar cinnamon fragrance before she entered the door, and knew that there would be such a day, and someone would eventually point out that she was Xu Shu's, so she also treated it indifferently.
Mrs. Zheng Si watched in surprise as Xu Shu restored the chess game to its original state, and her understanding of Xu Shu deepened, and while continuing to fall, she said to Xu Shu, "...... is that Li Meiren?" "There are many concubines in the palace, and Li Ying'er's position is not high, even the Zheng family, who is the queen's mother, has never looked at her in their eyes.
Xu Shu said lightly, "The granddaughter of the Li family, who was drafted into the palace the year before last!" ”
Secretary for Communications and Affairs, Li Jia...... He also called Xu Shu his cousin...... Mrs. Zheng Si knew Li Ying'er's origin, and she was really not a great character, no wonder the queen was too lazy to tell the Zheng family, the palace concubines of Li Meiren's status who were flattered in front of the queen did not know how many, how could they be worth remembering, Mrs. Zheng Si smiled faintly, and left a son again, raised her head and said to Xu Shu, "You lost!" ”
Xu Shu smiled and threw down the chess pieces, "My mother is good at chess, and my daughter is ashamed!" ”
Mrs. Zheng Si smiled and picked up the chess pieces, "If you want to learn, I will teach you slowly when you go back, you are very talented!" ”
"Good!" Xu Shu never turned down the opportunity to learn.
When the two were about to play another game, a person suddenly hurried in from outside the palace gate, and went to the main hall without saying hello, Mrs. Zheng Si saw that the goddess of the palace was full of panic, as if something big had happened, and Mama Yuan, who came out, did not blame her for her rudeness, but talked to her in a low voice.
Suddenly, Mrs. Zheng also lost the mood to play chess, put down the chess pieces, Xu Shu also stopped, and sure enough, Mama Yuan finished talking to the palace maid, and ran to them, "Fourth lady, Miss Nine, the queen still has some things to deal with, I'm afraid I have to talk to the two of you, if Mrs. and Miss are fine, go back early, so as not to worry about the old lady!" ”
Mrs. Zheng Si nodded, "So we'll go back, there's Mama Lao!" "It's not serious for them to enter the palace, and it's a good thing to go back early.
"Madame is gracious!"
Mrs. Zheng Si led Xu Shu out of the palace again, and when she was waiting at the gate of the palace to be inspected by the guards, she listened to the whispering of people on the side, so she pricked up her ears and listened.
"Did Lord He lead the prince of Duanwang and the prince of the mighty Hou into the palace?"
"Yes! I heard that it was for the death of the princess of the first duan, and I heard that the princess of the first duan was killed by someone, and the prince of the duan prince went directly to the wedding banquet of the duanwang mansion today to make a fuss about it......"
Mrs. Zheng Si's heart was shocked, and sure enough, something happened! But looking at Xu Shu again, she was very calm, she really knew it a long time ago......
