Chapter 67: Entering the Palace

I entered the palace to meet the queen mother, said not to be nervous, those are just I comforted the beginning of the summer, for the time being, aside from her noble status as the queen mother, she is still the mother of the cold resignation. Fastest update access: щщщ.79XS.сОΜ.

I always have a kind of ugly daughter-in-law's apprehension when she sees her in-laws. The eunuchs in the palace all rely on their eyes to eat, and they are the best at figuring out the master's intentions, and the tone of the eunuchs who just sent the edict made me doubly worried that the queen mother would not like me, and she was so picky. Or, what if she already has a favorite daughter-in-law in her heart and obstructs me and Liangci?

In the final analysis, I am just a businessman's 'daughter', and I am also the most humble 'woman', compared with Liang Ci, white clouds and dust, heaven and earth. Now when I go to see his mother, I can't help but be scared, lose my self-confidence, and look at my whole body again and again, lest I be indecent.

Xia Chu lowered his head, but he couldn't help it, and whispered: "Miss Eleven, when you were sick, the emperor once came. ”

"Huh?" I couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Is it that Liang Ci abandoned state affairs in order to take care of me, and the emperor blamed him?" ”

Xia Chu shook his head: "The master won't let us tell you." The emperor made a special trip to see you, saying that there was a shortage of doctors and 'medicine' in the Qiwang Mansion, and there was no good doctor to see you, so he wanted to take you into the palace to recuperate your body. Naturally, the master refused. The emperor walked with a calm face and was angry. ”

I couldn't help but be stunned, which one is the emperor singing? Is it because you want to take the opportunity to imprison me, and don't want me to meet with Liang Ci?

Xia Chu glanced at me, saw that I was at a loss, knew that I didn't understand what she meant, and continued to speak: "Also, I heard Mu Lin say that on the imperial banquet in the palace, you fell from the lampstand, in fact, the master was afraid that you would fall, and secretly helped you, so the emperor took the opportunity to take the lead. ”

When I fell from the platform, I did feel a force holding me up, and what Xia Chu said was indeed true, so the emperor's mind was even more elusive.

"You, do you mean to say......" I asked, a sense of foreboding rising in my heart, and I thought it was unlikely.

At the beginning of the summer, he neatly tied up the 'jade' skirt around my waist, bowed his head and said: "The slave is talkative, I just want to remind Miss Eleven, although she is also a mother, her ten fingers are not the same, and sometimes a bowl of water will not be even." ”

Xia Chu's words were very vague, but I also heard the meaning clearly. At the beginning of summer, I have been serving Liang Ci for some years, and I have Liang Ci's trust, and I am 'friendly' with Mu Lin, not just a rough girl who serves tea and water, and has a delicate mind, and I must also have a thorough understanding of the chaos between the DPRK and China.

Originally, these things, Liang Ci was 'handed' on behalf of me and couldn't speak to me, but today I entered the palace alone, and the blessings and misfortunes were unpredictable, and she reminded me that I had a sense of vigilance, which was also wise, and it must have been after some contradictory consideration.

I was about to ask Xia Chu about the Queen Mother's temperament, but there was already a sound of urging outside the door. I didn't dare to delay any longer, so I lifted the 'medicine' box and walked out of the room, listened to my father-in-law's command, got into the sedan chair into the palace, and was worried all the way.

I know that the palace is an unusual place, and I must be cautious in my words and deeds, and observe the 'color', and the slightest mistake may lead to death.

Walking to the palace 'gate', there are 'attendants' to check and verify, and the eunuch needs to 'hand' over the palace procedures and errands, and the eunuch who leads the way is changed, and he follows into the strict palace 'gate', which is another world, and even the breath that comes to his face is seriously suppressed.

At the beginning of summer, I stuffed a handful of silver tickets into my cuffs as dots. When I get off the sedan chair, the meeting gift is naturally indispensable. He got the benefit, knowing that I was from the Qiwang Mansion, and he was polite to me, but if he took care of it, he didn't have to think about it.

He only told me: "There are many nobles in the palace, but don't be abrupt and offended, remember to bow your head when you walk, don't look around, there are no rules." ”

I lowered my head as I was told, focusing only on the heels of his boots, and followed suit.

I don't know how many roads I have walked, twists and turns, I feel that my legs and feet are sore, and I can't help but be speechless, I used to be a frog at the bottom of the well, and I always feel that Su Mansion is already very big, and now this palace, intricate, winding paths, has been walking for so long, and it has not yet arrived. I didn't dare to ask, but fortunately I was a village girl, if I was replaced by a delicate daughter like Qingqing, I was afraid that I would be so tired that I would be paralyzed.

In amazement, I suddenly realized that something was wrong, this road has been walked!

Although I didn't dare to look around me, I kept my head down, staring at the bluestone pavement under my feet. But I clearly remember that just now, a daisy came out of the crack in the stone, and was stepped on by the eunuch in front, and two or three 'flower' petals fell in the crack of the stone where a corner was missing, so I paid attention to it.

What exactly is a coincidence? Or is it deliberate? Could it be that we're just going around in circles around here for a while?

Raising his eyes to look at the eunuch in front of him, he was still not in a hurry, his heart was not beating or panting, and he looked down at his boots, which were badly worn, afraid that he was a eunuch who ran 'errands' to deliver messages.

I was worried that I was just preoccupied for a moment, so I quietly pulled a decorative bead from my cuff and threw it at my feet. The bead jumped twice and fell into the crack in the bluestone next to it.

I was secretly observing, and after the tea had been done, I found the bead very easily.

As expected, he kept taking me around the neighborhood to kill time. He is a little eunuch, so naturally he does not dare to make his own decisions, so he is obviously instructed by others to do so.

I don't know anyone in the harem, this calculation of me, except for the queen mother, can only be Ling Guifei, absolutely impossible to be her.

Whatever the purpose, I must not let her succeed or give her a means of punishment.

All of a sudden, his mind was racing, countless thoughts were filtered in his mind, looking at the little eunuch in front of him, he secretly gritted his teeth: "I'm sorry, I'm offended!" ”

Glancing left and right, there was no one else, and a silver needle as thin as a gadfly was 'touched' from his waist, and with a flip of his wrist, it 'shot' towards his neck.

In these days, Liang Ci has taught me how to use internal force to wrist strength, and maximize the power of the 'flower' rain in the sky, which can achieve the effect of hurting people without getting close to it, and use it as self-defense.

This kind of needle is extremely thin, coupled with a special technique, so when it pierces the cervical vertebrae, it is only a slight numbness, and it will not arouse suspicion. However, the disadvantage is that the effect of the soft tendon powder 'medicine' is slightly slower.

The little eunuch felt something was wrong as he walked, and I looked from behind, as if drunk, and his body began to tilt, and he obviously lost his strength, and finally sat on the side of the road, panting heavily, and sweating from his head.

I stopped, pretended to be concerned, and asked, "Father-in-law, what's wrong with you?" ”

The little eunuch said weakly: "Suddenly I have no strength, rest my feet and then walk." "There was no doubt about me.

I raised my eyes to see his 'color' and said in surprise: "Why are you sweating, I'm afraid it's not tired, it's not that your body is not good." ”

When the words fell, he secretly counted in his heart: "One, two, three", the little eunuch's eyes were black, and he fainted.

I glanced around, the pavilion rockery, lush, 'flowers' and grasses are luxuriant, and there are few traces of pruning, it should not be a place where the masters often come to enjoy the scenery. And we have been going around here for a long time, and we haven't seen many palace eunuchs, so it should be a relatively remote place.

I pretended to be panicked and shouted to him twice, but there was no response, it should be when the 'medicine' was strong, I stood up, tiptoed to look left and right, not far away there happened to be two little eunuchs talking and laughing over, not very old, should be thirteen or fourteen years old.

I reached out and pulled out the silver needle from the back of the neck of the eunuch who led the way, hid it in my waist, and then ran towards the two little eunuchs in a panic.

"Two fathers-in-law stay!" I shouted.

The two of them turned their heads to me, looked at my dress, and knew that it was not an ordinary palace 'girl', and they were both a little suspicious: "Dare to ask which palace master you are?" ”

It seems that the two of them misunderstood my identity, and quickly explained: "I am the medical 'girl' of the Qiwang Mansion, and the Queen Mother Xuan entered the palace to diagnose her pulse, but unfortunately the father-in-law who led the way suddenly suffered from heat stroke and was in a coma. ”

The two fathers-in-law glanced at each other and asked, "Since you're going to Puning Palace, why did you come around here?" ”

Sure enough, as I expected, I said anxiously: "My father-in-law said that when he saw a noble sedan chair parked on the side of the road, he was afraid that it would be bad if it collided, so he would take me on a detour." ”

The two fathers-in-law believed it: "It's quite thoughtful, but I don't know what about others?" ”

I raised my hand and pointed behind me, "Right there." ”

When the two saw the clothes of the eunuch who led the way, they knew that the position was above them, so they hurriedly ran over and exclaimed, "Hey, isn't this Father-in-law Fuquan?" On weekdays, he runs 'errands' in front of the Queen Mother, and he is as neat as a little leopard, how can he say that he is dizzy? ”

"I have already checked his pulse, and there is no major problem, but he should have been hit by heat stroke, so move him to a 'shaded' and cool place, wet his forehead with cool water, and he will wake up. It's just that the Queen Mother can't be delayed, I'm afraid that if it's too late, the Queen Mother will blame it again. "I pretended to be anxious.

The two little eunuchs naturally understood what I meant, and echoed: "That is, the Queen Mother can't be delayed, and we also know the way, so it's better for one to stay here to take care of him, and the other to take you to Puning Palace." ”

Naturally, I couldn't ask for it, and I thanked it again and again.

The two of them worked together to carry Nafu all the way to the shade of the trees, and one of them, a little older, led me all the way, and after a moment pointed to a splendid palace in front of me and said, "Here we are." ”

There were two palace 'women' on duty in front of the palace, and the little eunuch walked over with a smiling face and sang: "Two sisters, the medical 'girl' announced by the Queen Mother has arrived, and the trouble is clear." ”

The two palace 'women' glanced at him and said strangely: "You little eunuch is very eye-catching." ”

The little eunuch didn't recognize his life either, and said with a smile: "I am serving in front of Gonggong Guo, doing some rough work, where can I have the opportunity to meet the two sisters." ”

The two palace 'women' covered their mouths and smiled, and glanced at me behind him: "It must be that Fuquan is lazy again, so let's go and say goodbye, you stay here honestly." ”
