Lan Zhili took the letter suspiciously, unfolded it, and read it carefully, a little crack appeared on his originally calm face, and he said: "You go back and report to the queen, and say that I already know about this matter, and I will do it, so that the mother can rest assured." ”

Qiao'er nodded and said, "In this case, the slave and maid will rest assured, and they will definitely bring the Prime Minister's words, and please rest assured that the Prime Minister can rest assured." ”

Saying that, Lan Zhili got up, took out something from the bookshelf, and handed it to Qiao'er: "Our people have found something, but whether it is a coincidence or something, and if we investigate it again, the clue will be broken, Niangniang has a lot of contact with this person in the palace, maybe there will be clues." ”

Qiao'er subconsciously asked, "What person?" ”

Prime Minister Lan Cheng said unfathomably: "The old man of Mu Wangfu-"

Qiao'er's face also became ugly, she put away her things carefully, and then she left the study, but the woman who didn't want to leave was really standing outside the study, and when she saw Qiao'er coming out, she smiled softly, and said in a low voice: "Qiao'er doesn't know me anymore?" ”

She called her name directly, this is the second time, and Qiao'er will inevitably not think that she knows herself.

She looked around, and when she saw that no one noticed this, she dared to raise her eyes and look at her generously, seeing Qiao'er's suspicious look, the woman smiled more and more coquettishly.

Suddenly Qiao'er saw her slight side face, in the corner of her right eye, there was a delicate and small tear mole, Qiao'er suddenly reacted, she looked incredulous, yes, they knew each other, but, for her, Qiao'er never paid attention to her, because she was too ordinary, too humble, it turned out that she was just a cook in the house, dealing with the stove all day long, but now look at her dress, where is there still the shadow like back then.

Seeing Qiao'er's expression, the woman knew that Qiao'er recognized herself, she reached out and combed her sideburns, and the hosta on her hair took advantage of her face to merge more and more, she said: "Qiao'er girl is a noble person who forgets things, and she should be in a hurry to be a concubine." ”

The little maid who was guarding outside the study stepped forward at this time and said respectfully: "Aunt Wu, the master called you in to serve." ”

Sure enough, just like Qiao'er's guess, the current Wu Cuilian is not the Wu Cuilian of the year, she restrained the look on her face, and said softly: "The slave maid didn't know the identity of her aunt, and she was rude." ”

Wu Cuilian took two steps forward, affectionately helped Qiao'er up, and said softly: "We were all the same people originally, living under people, and now, Qiao'er girl is serving by the queen's side, if it is really about her identity, the concubine may not be taller than Qiao'er girl, Qiao'er girl does not need to be polite." ”

Qiao'er knew that she was so polite to herself because of the queen's mother, not really because of herself. I don't know why, my heart became more and more sour, Wu Cuilian looked at the direction of the study, and said softly: "The adult is still waiting for the concubine to serve in the study, and the concubine will leave first." ”

Qiao'er bowed to her and waited for her to leave, then turned around.

Along the way, Qiao'er was thinking about these things she had encountered, and it was not until she arrived in the palace that she felt that the whole person was still immersed in her thoughts.

Entering the Weiyang Palace, the little palace maid guarding the door saw Qiao'er coming back, and stepped forward and said, "Sister Qiao'er is back?" ”

Qiao'er took a deep breath and nodded, and the little palace maid hurriedly whispered: "Sister Qiao'er, Concubine Hui and Ruicai came today and said something that made the queen unhappy. ”

She had good intentions, thinking that Qiao'er could accept her heart, but she didn't want to, Qiao'er was bored in her heart at this time, waved her hand impatiently, and said coldly: "How did you serve Niangniang, I just left, and I made Niangniang unhappy, so how can I rest assured in the future?" ”

Seeing that she picked up the master's shelf again, the little palace maid could only promise to say yes, and did not dare to refute, the sullenness in her heart was vented together, and she was finally happy, Qiao'er entered the hall lightly, and when Qiao'er walked away, the little palace maid glanced at her mouth with disdain, and muttered in a low voice: "No matter how much you are favored, you are just the descendants of the queen's mother, what is there to be proud of, it is not a generation of people who serve others, and they really think that they are the masters." ”

But I didn't want Qiao'er to go far, and actually listened to these words word for word. ”

She was angry in her heart, and wanted to come forward to theorize, but she was afraid that the matter would make a big deal and make the queen unhappy, so she could only tighten her fingers, endure her anger, and think that she would settle accounts with her in the future.

Entering the inner hall, the queen was half-lying on the soft collapse, her face was a little pale with white fat powder, she half-closed her eyes, if she heard these words, she felt a headache, but still picked up the letter, and read it.

The more Lan Ruo looked at it, the more frightened she felt, her fingers gradually turned white, no wonder, she would feel that this person was so strange, could it really be her?

Qiao'er didn't know the contents of the letter, and when she saw the queen's face was very ugly, she asked tentatively, "But what happened?" ”

Lan Ruo turned her head to look at Qiao'er, bit her lower lip and said, "Qiao'er, go to the Autumn Dew Palace." ”

At this time, in the imperial garden, Lan Xin and Rui Cai Ren Zheng sat in the pavilion, Lan Xin pinched an orchid from the flowers on the side and played with it in her hand, Rui Cai smiled and seemed to be closing her eyes to recuperate, heard Qiao'er's slight and small sound, slowly turned her head, and asked, "Is the matter done?" ”

Qiao'er hummed softly, she walked lightly in front of Lan Ruo, helped Lan Ruo knead her shoulders, and said softly: "The slave heard that Niang Niang is angry today?" Seeing that Lan Ruo didn't make a sound, but frowned slightly, Qiao'er knew that her anger had disappeared a lot.

She boldly persuaded: "Why should Niangniang be angry with her, Niangniang is like this, it is because she is under her arms." ”

Lan Ruo felt that the strength on her shoulders was neither light nor heavy, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "How can this palace not know the abacus in her heart, but what she said is also reasonable, and she has to worry about this palace." ”

Qiao'er only heard that the queen was angry, but she didn't know why the queen was angry, and when she saw the queen take the initiative to mention it, she asked, "What is it for?" ”

Lan Ruo was a little worried in her heart, but she didn't want to say any more, she just shook her head, changed the topic and asked, "Can my father tell you anything else?" ”

Qiao'er nodded hurriedly, took out something from her bosom and handed it to Lan Ruo, and said, "The Prime Minister said that it was about the old people of Mu Wangfu, and he couldn't find more clues, so he wanted to ask Niangniang if she had found anything." ”

It's Mu Wangfu again, Lan Dao: "Niangniang's title is Hui, Your Majesty naturally thinks that Niangniang Hui has a good Lan heart, and this orchid is the most compatible." ”

Lan Xin knew that she was complimenting herself, and said with a smile: "It's just an orchid, what can be strange, I don't want to be like this orchid, although it is elegant and pleasant, but it is also very pure, if you really say that the favorite flower, it is naturally a peony." That's really the fragrance of the country. ”

Rui Cairen was shocked, looked at Lan Xin, only to see Lan Xin playing with the orchid in her hand, as if this was just talking, she laughed dryly and said: "That's natural, it's the concubine's clumsiness." ”

Lan Xin smiled but didn't say anything, Linglong walked in quickly from afar, walked to Lan Xin's side, leaned down and said something, the smile on Lan Xin's face became more and more proud, she sighed lightly, threw the orchids on the ground, slowly got up, and trampled on it mercilessly, the flowers that were still blooming alone on the branches were like a puddle of mud at this time. Lan Xin raised her face and said to Rui Cai: "The queen mother went to the Autumn Dew Palace, where do you say we should go?" ”

Rui Cairen saw Lan Xin staring at her uncomfortably for a moment, and she couldn't answer for a while, she could only bow her head and say: "The concubine doesn't know—and ask the mother for guidance—"

Lan Xin became more and more proud, and said with a smile: "What is pointing and not pointing, this palace is teasing you, okay, this palace is lacking, this will go back to the palace, if you like this orchid, enjoy it slowly in the imperial garden." ”

When Ruicai heard this, he hurriedly got up and saluted and sent Lan Xin away.

On the other side, before Ruyi could get out of the shock of Bai Zhi's arrival, she heard that the queen had also arrived.

The three of them were shocked, and in the end, it was Lianxin who calmed down first, and she said: "We have not disobeyed Your Majesty's will, if we really ask for trouble, it will seem that the queen mother is intolerable, she will not do this, we will only be soldiers to block, water to cover——"

Ruyi nodded and said, "Now it's the only way to go." ”

The three of them took over, Lan Ruo looked at the furnishings in the Autumn Dew Palace, it was really like the rain and dew after the autumn, the cold was desolate, she sat down with Qiao'er's support, and the three of Ruyi stood aside, waiting for her to speak.

Qiao'er didn't know the meaning of the queen's trip, so she could only serve on one side.

Lan Ruo stared at the ugly for a long time, and said as if unintentionally: "Today, the Internal Affairs Office of Weiyang Palace has found some good silk silk from Jiangnan, but this palace looks at it, and the yarn weaving is not as fine as the Jiangnan silk I saw before, so I thought about finding someone to ask, and after thinking about it, I also thought of you here. She spoke lightly.

Lianxin wanted to answer, but before she could open her mouth, Lan Ruo turned to look at Chou'er and said, "Chou'er, you must know that this matter will be more than your master, but you should talk about it-"

Lan Ruo's approach is really very abrupt, a few people couldn't react for a while, and looked at the ugly child in some surprise, the ugly child first calmed down, and replied: "Back to the queen's mother, although it is said that they are all silk fabrics in the south of the Yangtze River, but in different regions, the silk weaving produced is also different, Niangniang said that today's internal affairs government sent it, if the slave maid is not mistaken, it should be mulberry silk, the characteristics are indeed as Niangniang said, although the yarn weaving is dense, but the air permeability is also better, and it is difficult to make." ”
