Chapter 69: House Arrest
"The Queen Mother is in good health, there is nothing wrong with it, and she has not slept well for a long time, and it is very likely that some living habits are not appropriate. Please search to see the most complete! The fastest update"
The Queen Mother supported half of her body with her hands, leaned on the couch, and asked with interest: "Tell me about it." ”
"Qing Wu is foolish, the Queen Mother seems to like to drink strong tea? And it's the most mellow Pu'er. I said tentatively.
"How do you know?"
"Yunwu Mountain produces tea, and Qingwu has learned skin 'hair' from her master since she was a child, and she can argue with the fragrance."
The Queen Mother nodded appreciatively and motioned for me to continue.
"Black tea is the most refreshing to sleep, and drinking too much will naturally affect sleep. The Queen Mother can try to change some 'flower' tea, chamomile, lily or winter melon mashed to extract juice, and take it at night, which can promote gallbladder and help sleep. ”
"What else?"
"And the incense in the house, although it is soothing, but it is tantamount to drinking water to quench thirst, and over time, there will be dependence and stinging on the brain. It is also excellent to ventilate more on weekdays, keep indoor air circulating, go out and walk around more, and bask in the sun. ”
"It's a new idea, it's the first time I've heard of it."
"Also, there are ......," I said boldly: "The blanket in the Queen Mother's room is too strong and 'colorful', which will prick the brain and excite it, so it's better to change it." ”
The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment, and then chuckled: "Speaking cheerfully, not spitting, but it is very suitable for my spleen 'nature'." I heard that you are also good at making tea? ”
After being praised by the Queen Mother, he was naturally a little fluttering in his heart, and said modestly: "I know a little bit about it." ”
"That's good," the Queen Mother closed her eyes and said lazily: "You can stay in my palace and be a tea officer, let me taste your so-called 'flower' tea, what is the effect?" ”
When the words fell, I didn't bother to say a word, I closed my eyes, my breathing was steady, and I felt as if I was asleep.
"I, I ......" I 'wanted' to refuse, but the palace man called Wheat next to the Queen Mother had already made a silent gesture to me, took the blanket on the side, and lightly put it on her body. Then he said in a low voice: "Please come with me, the county lord." ”
Seeing that the Queen Mother was tired, Concubine Ling naturally didn't dare to make noise in front of her, as if she was also a little jealous of this palace man called Mai, she glared at me angrily, turned her head and walked out of Puning Palace.
I walked out of the Queen Mother's dormitory with Wheat, and Wheat's back turned to me and said, "The Queen Mother's drowsiness is coming quickly today, but don't disturb it." You go back to your room to rest for a while, and wait for the Queen Mother to summon you. Qi Wangye, naturally someone will go over to inform him. ”
After speaking, without waiting for me to speak, she beckoned to the palace 'maid' who was standing on the side, and told her to take me back to the house and not to move around.
Although Mai is young, she seems to be very effective in front of the Queen Mother, and everyone in the palace below obeys her call.
The palace people took me out of the queen mother's bedroom, turned around, and entered an independent courtyard courtyard, without a plaque, simple and elegant, not like a subordinate residence. As soon as I entered the house, the palace people closed the 'door' from the outside and stood at the door of the house in an orderly manner, which clearly put me under house arrest.
A moment ago, I still felt that the Queen Mother was approachable, kind and kind, but now, it has been completely subverted. I couldn't help but slap myself with remorse, let you do it, and now I was caught by the Queen Mother, right?
Being under house arrest here, I'm naturally not afraid, anyway, as long as I have food and drink, I can be at peace. It's just that Liang Ci should have gotten the news now, will he worry about me?
I can naturally guess what I said at the beginning of summer today. Liang Ci has not been in the capital since he was a child, and the relationship with the Queen Mother will definitely not be too affectionate, but don't cause any gaps because of me.
Lying anxiously on the carved 'flower' and 'bed', partial and helpless, he could only think 'chaotically' alone.
At noon, a palace man came in, holding a tray, putting down a few plates of snacks and dishes, changing a new pot of tea without saying a word, and quietly retreating.
After resting at noon, I finally survived until the sun and shadow slanted to the west, which was like sitting on pins and needles, and it was difficult to sit still.
There was finally movement outside the courtyard, the sound of footsteps, and the sound of deliberately lowered voices. Looking out through the screen window of the cicada wings, there are 'guards' carrying large and small cages or 'flower' pots from outside my yard, but the 'flower' pots are not planted with fresh 'flowers', the branches are luxuriant, green and lush, but I can't see what kind of variety it is from a distance.
People came and went, and it took about a stick of incense to be carried before he was born. A palace man in pink 'color' palace clothes came in to spread the word, saying that the Queen Mother asked me to serve in front of me.
I tensed my strings, and secretly warned myself that I must pay attention to the 'color' of words and observations, and think carefully before I speak, but I should not say anything wrong.
When I walked out of the house, there were still dead branches and leaves left behind by the things I had just carried on the road, and I didn't have time to clean them. My heart couldn't help but move, and there was clearly a cold word in the grass and 'medicine' transplanted in the 'flower' garden in the fallen leaves on the ground!
Cool words are coming! Definitely! I was so excited that I could barely hold back. But why did he carry so many herbs and 'medicines' to Puning Palace, and plant them in 'flower' pots, didn't he know that these herbs 'medicines' were delicate, and it would not be easy to survive without that Taiji Illusory Land?
Walking all the way, thinking all the way, approaching Puning Palace, I saw a familiar figure under the leadership of the palace people, coming out of the queen mother's bedroom, turning around hurriedly with his head down, and disappeared.
"Mama Qi?" I couldn't help but be a little surprised, how could Mama Qi in the Hou Ye's mansion appear in the queen mother's bedroom?
I plucked a hairpin from my head, tucked it in my cuffs, pretended to lean over and picked it up from the ground, and exclaimed, "How can there be a hairpin on the ground?" I don't know who was so careless and fell here? ”
The palace man who was walking in front stopped, turned around in confusion, and said eagerly: "Mine, mine, why do I feel empty in my head?" ”
I handed her the hairpin with a smile, and took out a silver ticket from my cuff and stuffed it into her hand quietly: "There is also a silver ticket." ”
The palace people immediately understood my thoughts, but they didn't know what I was asking for, and the hand holding the silver ticket froze there, hesitating and unable to decide, lest I make it difficult for her to make it difficult for me again.
"I didn't know if I was 'dazzled' just now, but I saw an acquaintance passing by in front of me, so strange. She was originally on an errand with the Queen Mother, I heard that she had already left the palace, and now she is in the Anle Hou Mansion for the elderly, how could she appear here? ”
The palace people breathed a sigh of relief, put the silver ticket and hairpin into the cuffs, squinted their eyes and said: "You said Mama Qi, the Queen Mother heard that she went down to Jiangnan a while ago and asked her to come over for questioning." ”
Questioning? Lower Gangnam? What is the Queen Mother trying to inquire about?
"I am much more familiar with Jiangnan than Mama Qi, and I have seen a lot of rare things, but I didn't expect the Queen Mother to be interested." I cautiously probed.
"I don't know about this, I just listened to the sister on duty." The palace man smiled: "The county lord is neat at his feet, there are distinguished guests in the palace, waiting for tea." ”
I knew I couldn't ask anything more, so I didn't dare to slack off, so I hurried two steps. But my heart is like a boiling pot, boiling with fine water 'flowers'.
I thought of the Queen Mother's seemingly unintentional question in the morning, and when I was in Jiangnan, Mama Qi saw the light in my eyes, and the whispering of my stepmother and another 'woman' during the birthday banquet of the old lady of the Marquis of Qingping.
Who is "she" in their mouths?
Is it true that I resemble her?
A reminder from the palace man interrupted my chaotic thoughts. I raised my head, and I couldn't help but rejoice in my heart, Mu Lin was pestle straight at the 'gate' of Puning Palace like a piece of wooden stake, and when he saw me, he stiffly pulled the corners of his mouth, which was counted as a greeting.
Sure enough, it's a cool resignation! I was in a good mood, swept away the depression of Shicai, winked at Mu Lin, and walked briskly into the Queen Mother's bedroom.
The queen mother is above, the palace people respectfully list the two sides, the emperor and Liang Ci each sit under the queen mother's head, talking and laughing, and it seems that the family is happy.
I stepped forward and saluted respectfully, and fell to my knees.
The Queen Mother stopped talking and laughing, and motioned for me to speak flatly: "Say Cao '' Cao '' just arrive, this is coming without talking." I look at this girl and feel comfortable, it's rare that I had a good night's sleep today. ”
The emperor, who was sitting upright on the right hand, bowed his head and said: "No wonder the queen mother looks refreshed today and is not as tired as in the past." Miss Eleven's medical skills are superb, if she helps her mother to recuperate, she will definitely be able to stay forever and prolong her life. ”
When the Queen Mother heard this, she squinted her eyes and smiled extraordinarily brightly: "If you are in a good mood, your body is naturally good, and Liangci will not resent the queen mother for taking the initiative to leave the county lord of Deyi in Puning Palace, right?" ”
Liang Ci withdrew his gaze and turned to the side slightly: "If Qingwen can do her best for the queen mother, I naturally can't ask for it, but I am afraid that she will be uneducated and vulgar, which will make the queen mother angry." ”
The Queen Mother looked at me with a smile in her eyebrows: "At first, I heard your imperial brother say that Miss Eleven has superb medical skills and is eclectic, but I still don't believe it. ”
Sure enough, it was the emperor's idea, and it was expected to be good at the beginning of Xia. It's just that there are countless beauties in his harem, and he is 'fat' and thin, how to fall into the country and the city, I don't believe that he will be interested in my boiling cabbage. Why did he want me to enter the palace? What exactly is Ann's mind? Is it because you don't want Liang Ci to be with me?
"Miss Eleven has heard and is well-informed, and it is good to have her in front of her mother, and it is good to accompany you to relieve your boredom." The emperor continued: "Save the queen mother from being lonely. ”
The Queen Mother smiled, and bowed her head again and again: "You two brothers are '' day and night on state affairs, as if we haven't been able to sit together for a long time, talking and laughing like today." Miss Eleven cooks a good hand of tea, and today you and I will see it together. ”
As soon as the words fell, some palace people walked in lightly and prepared the tea case, tea set, charcoal stove, etc.
After I walked to the tea table, I smoothed my skirt, sat cross-legged, opened the tea barrel, scooped up a little with a teaspoon, the nose was fragrant and mellow, and the tea leaves were green and 'fat' strong, which was the best blue snail 'spring'.
But the pot was empty, and there was not a drop of water.
