394 Dilemma
The Queen Mother chattered for a long time, and what she said was homely, and she also said some old things about Yan Chong's childhood, which was very nostalgic.
It's just that in the end, the body is not good, and after a while, it is tired.
When Mama Zhou came with the medicine cup, she waved her hand and asked the young couple to retreat.
"Go ahead! Today's banquet in the palace is very lively, I don't have to let you accompany the old woman of the mourning family to talk here, it's boring enough, let's go play. It's just that the mourning family has prepared two experienced grandmothers, and when you go back out of the palace, remember to bring them. ”
Naturally, it is still the matter of Pei Jinji's production.
The young couple naturally did not dare to have any objections, thanked them, and then withdrew from the Shou'an Palace.
Walking out of Shou'anmen, the smile on Yan Chong's face disappeared, Pei Jinzhen sighed, reached out and held his somewhat stiff hand in the palm of his hand, he turned his head to look at her, there was a trace of fragility in his eyes, there was no time to hide it, or, because in front of her, there was no need to hide.
Pei Jinzhen looked at the tip of his heart, but he didn't know what to say to comfort him.
Birth, old age, sickness and death, no one can escape, even if it is as noble as the Queen Mother.
And in the face of birth, old age, sickness and death, each of them is too small to do anything.
The palace banquet was held in the Imperial Garden, as usual. On the edge of the river, the sun is thick and the river breeze is blowing, which is the coolest.
Yan Chong and Pei Jinzhen separated in front of the Imperial Garden, one went to the Imperial Garden, and the other went to the Imperial Study.
Most of the water pavilions on both sides of the royal river are open, and there are people sitting in twos and threes, because the weather is hot, most of them don't want to move, they just sit, eat the melons and fruits that have been simmered in the ice, shake the fan, and gossip.
Only a group of little girls who have not yet married are not afraid of the heat, gathered in one place, racing their own sachets.
Whose is more innovative, whose embroidery work is brilliant...... Seeing this, Pei Jinzhen curled the corners of his mouth and smiled, he is still young! Such innocence has been difficult for her to find for many years.
"Are you going to be a mother, right, looking at such a big child, you can also soften your heart? Look at you, what are you laughing at? Xu Zhenzhen walked to Pei Jinzhen with a fan, looked at the smile on her face, and teased.
Pei Jinzhen was not annoyed, and replied with a smile, "Want to know?" If you want to know, you can try it yourself. ”
Xu Zhenzhen muttered twice, but did not answer, but her face turned red.
"Have you reconciled with your General Xue?"
"What reconciles or not? That's not all. Xu Zhenzhen snorted.
Seeing that these two people have a small quarrel for two days and a big quarrel for three days, I am afraid that they will live a noisy life like this. The matter between husband and wife is not good for others, but it is just like a person drinking water, and he knows his own warmth and coldness.
The two talked for a while, and Lu Yueling also came.
On such occasions, like a few of them, there is no need to socialize too much for the time being, they are just familiar with each other and talking.
After talking for a while, Pei Jinzhen left for the time being. She is now a month older, and if nothing else, the number of times she goes to the toilet has become more frequent.
Coming out of the official room, he just turned the corner and met a figure, but he rushed straight up.
Today, it was followed by the red silk and the green branch, both of which were startled, and they were busy protecting Pei Jinzhen to the side to dodge.
The man was also startled, and hurriedly stopped his steps, but he didn't hit it, but the water in the wooden basin he was holding in his hand was spilled out, splashing half of Pei Jinzhen's skirt.
Although Pei Jinzhen was not injured, he was scared enough, and Hongxuan was already angry, "Don't you have eyes?" If you bump into my wife, can you afford it? ”
It was a palace maid, dressed in a cyan shirt and skirt, and belonged to a low-grade coarse palace maid, which could be seen everywhere in the entire palace.
At this moment, he was so frightened that he threw away the wooden basin in his hand, and he was already kneeling on the ground, trembling with fright, "The noble man spared his life, the slave and maid did not deliberately collide with the nobleman, and asked the noble man to spare the slave and maid......" There was already a trilling sound in the words.
Pei Jinzhen looked down at the dress on his body, although the weather was hot, and after a while, he was able to do it, but it was indecent.
"Go to the housekeeper and get the punishment!" In this palace, it's not like you can ask someone to spare your life if something happens back. Glancing lightly at the palace maid on the ground, Pei Jinzhen took the green branch's hand and turned around to go in a certain direction.
Banquets are held in this palace, and the palace near the imperial garden will be cleaned up from the beginning, so that the ladies can rest for a while, or change their clothes, and freshen up.
Generally, the ladies who enter the palace for the banquet will prepare some clothes, and Pei Jinzhen is naturally the same, and the burden is sent in early in the morning.
When she entered the palace gate, the palace attendants led her into the wing, and then bowed down and withdrew.
Green Branch and Red Silk quickly changed into clean clothes for her, and when she was sitting in front of the dressing table to make up, Green Branch's face changed, "Madam, why is your begonia bead flower missing?" ”
The begonia bead flower is still the one that Yan Chong originally gave her, Pei Jinzhen has always liked it the most, and she often wears it, and it is the same when she enters the palace this time.
Pei Jinzhen raised his hand and touched his sideburns, and sure enough, it was empty, and the begonia bead flower was gone.
Pei Jinzhen's eyes swept and glanced at the green branch, who nodded knowingly and walked towards the closed door.
Hongxuan didn't care, "I'm afraid that I accidentally left it somewhere, and let people look around for a while." ”
But the green branch had already walked to the door, and when he stretched out his hand, the door did not open.
Her face changed, and she pulled it twice, but the door was still not moving, and at this point, Hongxuan also found that something was wrong, and hurriedly came to help.
The door shook vigorously, and there was a lock outside the door, but the door still didn't open.
Hongxuan's face was iron-blue, "Someone locked it from the outside." ”
The current situation is really not good, and I don't know what the conspiracy is.
At this time, Green Branch and Red Silk were so annoyed that they blamed them, they were too careless, which was why Mrs. was in such a predicament.
"Madame, what now?" Green Branch quickly came to his senses, and now it is useless to blame himself and regret, the most important thing is how to get out of the current predicament.
Pei Jinji's expression was calm, and he even smiled slightly, "Slam the door!" I can't believe that everyone is asleep, and the more noisy the better, and if it doesn't work, they will set fire to me, and I don't believe it, they dare to let me burn here. ”
Both the green branch and the red silk turned pale when they heard this, but they had to obey the order, picked up the stool on the side and began to slam the door hard......
After a long while, there was still no movement outside, Pei Jinzhen said with cold eyes, "Ignite the fire!" ”
Hongxuan looked at Pei Jinzhen with a white face, and his expression was a little hasty.
"Listen to Madame." The green branch pressed her shoulder, and the red silk barely stabilized her mind, took out the fire fold from her waist, and blew it, and over there, the green branch had already pulled the curtain on the side for a long time and took it to the door.
The red silk lit the curtain, and soon the smoke came out, and the green branch fanned hard with Pei Jinji's fan, and the smoke was fanned out through the crack in the door......
