Chu Xia thought that the palace would immediately summon Zhuang Rou into the palace, after all, the matter of the two of them was so spread in the capital that it was called a prodigal, and he couldn't control it at all, and of course he didn't think about it at all. ☆ Tomato ○ △

He has been keeping people staring at the palace, for fear of a mistake, which is a place where people eat people and don't spit out bones.

Unexpectedly, because Zhuang Rou was injured, the emperor had ordered that no one should disturb her, and she would talk about it when the injury was healed.

In this way, Chu Xia doesn't have to worry about it, as long as Zhuang Rou is not injured, then even if he collides with a noble person in the palace, he can run just by running.

More than 20 days later, Zhuang Xuewen finally came back, he already knew that Zhuang Rou had been made a lieutenant, and he just laughed when faced with Zhuang Rou's question about whether the emperor was stupid.

"Xiaorou, the horse is not bad, you can call yourself a minister or a subordinate in the future. By the way, when the king of Yinde County is a governor, he is only from the fifth grade, but you are the fourth grade. ”

Zhuang Rou was stunned for a moment, and asked with some eyebrows: "Then when he sees me, he has to pay a salute." ”

"Yes." Zhuang Xuewen said with a smile, just coax her to be happy.

With this official position, those who want to be unfavorable to her can't just kill her. Although it is not certain who will die, if the Queen Mother and the like are killed, it will be a little troublesome, and the DPRK and China cannot be chaotic now.

This time, Zhuang Xuewen left for a long time, Zhuang Rou thought about it and asked, "Brother, have you gone to deal with the matter of Batianmen?" ”

"Well, because some people in Kyoto are involved, it's a bit more troublesome to deal with. Some people have to clean up slowly, and they can't startle the snake. Zhuang Xuewen pinched her hands and feet as he spoke, and found that the injury had already healed, and the second pulse of Ren Du was really different, and his body was really as strong as an old turtle.

Zhuang Rou nodded, "Brother, the Heavenly Gate won't make trouble anymore, those people are ugly, and they are not reasonable." ”

Zhuang Xuewen smiled: "What Batianmen? It's long gone. ”

"......" Zhuang Rou raised her eyebrows when she heard this, this is the end of the door.

She remembered that Aunt Liu had mentioned to her that Yinba was taken away by the eldest young master, but this time she didn't find that she came back together, she asked a little uneasy: "Brother, where did Yinba go, why didn't he come back with you?" ”

"It was originally a beast, and it was too embarrassing to live in the house, so I put it in the willow garden, which is close to the royal garden, and it was a pity that it could turn over and play in it if it was fine, and it would be a pity that all its wildness was gone."

Zhuang Xuewen didn't know when, he made a garden on the edge of the royal garden, and Zhuang Rou didn't know about it at all.

When she heard that her brother had actually built a garden, and it was still next to the royal garden, Zhuang Rou couldn't help but think, wouldn't it be a good scenery.

She asked in surprise, "Brother, is the garden given to you by the emperor?" There's something fun in there. ”

"There's a hot spring to take you there in winter. Yinba has a lot to learn, and it's normal to live there, if you want to see it, go over and see it, and it will come in handy in the future. Zhuang Xuewen picked up an orange on the table, peeled it and ate a petal, and put the rest in front of her because it was not sour.

Zhuang Rou took the orange and ate it as usual, it was much sweeter than the one she had just eaten, and she discussed while eating, "Brother, there are always some people I don't know at all these days who come to send invitations for me to play." ”

"What kind of chrysanthemum to eat autumn, fruit banquet or poetry meeting, and a few people said it was their birthday, let me go and drink. Did you know that the emperor rewarded me with money and wanted to deceive me and give them all the money as a gift? ”

Zhuang Xuewen said disapprehantly: "Anyway, you don't know each other, so you don't have to go." ”

"Well, that's what I thought too. However, the eldest princess also asked me to go to the palace, and the queen issued a royal decree yesterday, saying that I was the only female concubine, and wanted to summon me to the palace to talk the day after tomorrow. Zhuang Rou handed another orange to Zhuang Xuewen, waiting for him to taste it first.

Miyazato ......

Zhuang Xuewen looked up at Zhuang Rou, she happened to look at it too, although her face was full of indifference, but it was impossible to say that she really didn't know what was going on.

"It's okay, remember that you are now the captain of the fourth grade, others can't punish you, only the emperor can punish you." He said in a deep voice.

Zhuang Rou smiled, "Brother, what do you say I am wearing?" ”

"Official uniform." Zhuang Xuewen said without thinking. The official uniform must have already been delivered, and it will be worn directly when the time comes.

"Okay." Zhuang Rou also wanted to see what kind of three-headed and six-armed the queen mother who likes to take care of other people's marriages all day long.

16. Travel.

Zhuang Rou wore a crimson four-rank official uniform with a plain gold belt around her waist, standing at the door of her house and looking at the eunuchs and guards who came to pick her up.

The carriage was ready, and Zhuang Xuewen handed her a purse, "There are golden melon seeds in it, so I will reward you more if you have nothing to do." ”

"Hmm." Zhuang Rou took the purse and hung it around her waist, and got into the carriage.

All weapons can't be brought into the palace, and you have to search your body when you get there, so it's better not to have those thoughts. However, when Xia Jia returned to the capital, he was taken away by Shi Zang, sent to the Xuanji camp to be repaired, and then sent back, and at this time she was already wearing under the official uniform.

The devil knows what will happen in that palace, so it's better to be careful.

Zhuang Rou sat in the carriage and waited leisurely to enter the palace, but the palace began to get nervous, just waiting for her arrival.

After checking his identity and confirming that he did not bring weapons, Zhuang Rou followed the four eunuchs and eight palace maids, and walked towards the Fengtai Palace where the queen was located like a concubine.

Although there were many people, the eunuchs and palace maids did not speak, and there was no sound when they walked, and they stood in front of and behind her like ghosts, and the group was extremely quiet.

Zhuang Rou thought for a while, if she talked to them, then everyone would have to reward a golden melon seed, and it seemed that she couldn't get it. Anyway, it was just walking, and there was no need to speak, so he didn't say a word, but he kept looking around.

This harem is not a place where you can run in with power, all the emperor's concubines live, except for the imperial doctor and the guards, I feel that other men enter here, and they are all women who want to steal the emperor.

She couldn't help but think that Hua Yulou was also famous in the capital, but she didn't know if there were any concubines or palace maids who fell into his poisonous hands in this harem.

If Hua Yulou is more bold and makes the belly of the woman in the palace bigger, then his child may become a prince. Thinking about it this way, this person should be arrested and cut into a eunuch in order to ensure that the royal bloodline is not transferred!

"Zhuang Concubine, we have arrived, this is Fengtai Palace, please wait for a while, let me go in and return." The leading eunuch said in a sharp voice.

Zhuang Rou raised her head and glanced at the palace gate in front of her, there were gorgeous palace gates all the way, and the Fengtai Palace where the emperor lived didn't seem to be special, maybe it would be better inside.

She nodded, "Father-in-law, please." ”

The eunuch walked in, and the others stood outside with Zhuang Rou, thinking that even if it was a palace in the palace, it would not be big enough, and he would come out and call himself in after a while, but he didn't expect to wait for a long time and not see the father-in-law come out.

Zhuang Rou waited for a while, looked up at the sky, this autumn tiger was still powerful at this time, and she was sweating from the sun.

Those palace maids all stood with their heads bowed, although they were sweating, they didn't dare to move at all, she felt that being an errand in the palace was simply not done by people, how could she stand it!

So, she found a shady place at the door, sat directly on the ground, wiped her sweat with her sleeve and said: "You guys are really hard, when we are on an errand in the house, as long as there is no case, we can find a place to eat in the cold." said that the conditions in the palace were good, but there was no movement in this standing at the door, so it would be too bad to dare to move. ”

Seeing that she dared to sit down without being instructed by anyone, and was still sitting at the door, a eunuch reminded: "Zhuang Yuma, the queen hasn't made an order yet, you can't sit down." ”

"I'm an official, and the queen can't control me. Besides, I didn't run, who doesn't know that I broke more than 30 bones in the first two months, and you are the one to blame for standing there and throwing me down. Zhuang Rou smiled and said.

When she said this, the others stopped talking and continued to stand honestly.

The queen was sitting in the palace, chatting with the two nobles, and a eunuch came over and whispered a few words in her ear, and she smiled disdainfully.

"Then let her in, what an unruly person."

"Yes." The eunuch withdrew.

The two noble girls were both fifteen or sixteen years old, and they were delicate and cute, and they asked with a smile: "Niangniang, is it the one outside that Niangniang said about catching fast?" ”

"Yes, that's her." The queen looked at the two and smiled, these two people are the people she selected, and when the marriage of the king of Yinde is decided, one of these two people can become a side concubine, and although the other person is one rank, he can also marry into the palace of the county king.

The two women glanced at each other, and one of them said half-jokingly: "Niangniang, there are rumors about this person and Brother Chu in the capital, and it is unbearable to hear about it occasionally. Why did the mother still summon her, just beat her out. ”

The queen smiled: "Don't worry, I called you two here to let her see what kind of person is worthy of the king of Yindejun." ”

"Mother." The two of them suddenly turned red, and they smiled embarrassedly when they covered their faces with fans.

At this moment, the previous eunuch led a scarlet figure in.

Everyone in the palace looked over, and they almost couldn't recognize it as a woman, but it was a young man in an official uniform. It's not handsome or gorgeous, if you change into women's clothes, your posture is just middle and upper, and it can't be compared with the palace concubines selected among the people.

Zhuang Rou remembered her brother's reminder, and when she saw the most gorgeously dressed woman on the main seat, she hugged her fists and bowed and said: "Zhuang Rou, the minister and the horse, have seen the queen's mother, the queen's mother is a thousand years old." ”

It was an official ceremony, not a courtesy for the woman to kneel, which made the queen's wish to let her kneel more was in vain, and she had to let Zhuang Rou get up without courtesy.

"Thank you, mother." After Zhuang Rou got up, she looked to the side, looking like she was looking for a seat. Even the unknighted woman sits, and it is impossible for her dignified fourth-rank official to stand.

The queen reluctantly said, "Give Zhuang a seat to the horse." ”

Immediately, a little eunuch ran over, brought a chair and put it down, Zhuang Rou thanked him and sat down unceremoniously.

And the woman on the other side laughed out loud, "Pretending to be a horse? This surname is not good, no matter what you call it, it is a pretense. ”

Zhuang Rou never wanted to deal with these little women, she was very tired, and when she heard the other party sarcastically mocking herself, she didn't bother to be instructed by the queen, or she sent it to the door by herself.

As soon as she opened her mouth, she said, "Girl, please respect yourself, although I am in the position of a captain of the horses, I am not interested in women, please do not try to get my attention by trying to get my attention. ”

"If it's not a princess or a county lord, talking to me will make people think you're going to climb high."

Even the queen was stunned when she said this, saying that she was fat and panting, what kind of person is this!
