Chapter 61: Seeking a Background
It was the first time for Jian Yao to walk with the emperor today, fortunately, she was accompanied by Concubine Yun, otherwise Jian Yao would have panicked even more.
It's not because of the fragrance on my body, I was covered by the chrysanthemum in the chrysanthemum garden, and I didn't pay attention to it, but now I smell it. This fragrance is light and elegant, and it is not kitsch, but it is not a spice that I can use.
Could it be that it was just when I was entangled with that old palace maid? If this is the case, then it is very likely that Concubine Shu is the concubine that the emperor once loved very much.
"Jian Yao, how are you and the prince doing recently?" The emperor and Jian Yao walked side by side unconsciously, and even Concubine Yun could only follow behind.
Jian Yao didn't know that this was a big disrespect, since ancient times, even if he was a meritorious minister, or the emperor loved the concubine, it was impossible to walk side by side with the emperor, he would definitely distance himself a little from one after the other, and he still bowed his head slightly, respectfully.
Walking side by side like Jian Yao, talking with his head held high and resisting, is really a strange thing. The father-in-law and palace maids on both sides also couldn't see the way, could it be that this Jian Yao became a celebrity in front of the emperor, and compared the Yun concubine Niangniang?
"The prince is my right-hand man, but I don't want to be a lover, I didn't want any beauties at that time, just one person." The emperor's eyes didn't leave Jian Yao, but he looked at Jian Yao, as if he was looking at another person through her.
And Yun Concubine, who was following behind, also said a few words from time to time, but she was worried in her heart. What's wrong with the emperor today, could it be that he has any other feelings for Jian Yao? No, it's better for her to inform Wang Lin.
So Concubine Yun quietly instructed the maid behind her to inform the princess.
Suddenly, Jian Yao smelled a burst of floral fragrance, which was a little similar to the smell on her body, and she couldn't help but stop.
"What's wrong?" It's really rare for the emperor to be so unshelf-shelf, and Concubine Yun was really a little surprised in the back.
"Ah, the concubine just thinks that this floral fragrance is very comfortable, and it is a little familiar." Jian Yao took a deep breath, the spice was added with other things, and now she smelled this single floral fragrance, as if she had smelled it in the past.
"Oh? Do you like the scent of flowers, but do you still feel familiar? The emperor seemed to have discovered something terrible, and his eyes seemed to be suppressed with ecstasy.
The emperor suddenly turned to Yun Concubine and said: "Qing Dai, you go back to the palace first, you have been accompanying me in the imperial study every day for the past few days, and you are also tired, go back to the palace to rest." ”
A trace of astonishment flashed in Concubine Yun's eyes, but she still saluted very sensibly, "The concubine will go back first to prepare the pineapple cake that the emperor loves to eat, and then the emperor will come and the concubines will eat it with the emperor." "Yun Concubine's coquettish posture when she spoke was really pitiful to me.
On weekdays, the emperor could still maneuver, but today he made a perfunctory remark, so he went to the garden with Jian Yao.
Yun Concubine has been treated like this since she entered the palace, and she must be unhappy in her heart, but she also knows that Jian Yao will not be the kind of person who wants to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, but she just feels strange why that fragrance makes the emperor so out of shape.
And Jian Yao watched Concubine Yun walk away, and couldn't help but beat a drum in her heart, what does this emperor mean, she is a married woman, won't you let people gossip alone?
"I haven't been here in this garden for a long time, I didn't expect the flowers to bloom so well, and the fragrance can float so far." The emperor's tone was full of nostalgia, and it seemed that the emperor had a lot of feelings for here.
"Your Majesty, I haven't seen this concubine, I don't know what it's called?" Jian Yao's hand caressed the petals, and there was a deep and shallow fragrance floating in the air, which made Jian Yao can't help but think of how good it would be if she could come with Wang Lin to enjoy it.
"It's called a dream, it's only open this season, the fragrance is light and elegant, and it's very pleasant." The emperor looked at the flowers with love and pity.
"The fragrance is shallow, but very pleasant, and it is a pleasant one." Jian Yao thought about how nice it would be if she could plant some in her yard.
"It's very flattering." The emperor looked at Jian Yao, just in front of Jian Yao's gaze, Jian Yao couldn't help but be a little surprised, "The most important thing in the spices on your body is this dream, it's a pity, the person who can make this incense is no longer there, it's a pity, it's a pity." The emperor suddenly sighed, reflecting the bleak clouds in the sky, which was really melancholy.
Jian Yao suddenly felt that Concubine Shu should be the emperor's favorite concubine, and it was really not easy to miss her like this now.
"The emperor thinks about people because of flowers, and I don't know which woman can make the emperor care about it for so many years."
The emperor's whole person stiffened for a moment, "Forget it, the old man is gone, don't mention it." The emperor turned around and walked out of the garden, and Jian Yao naturally wanted to follow.
"Your Majesty, the concubine heard that you still have an appointment with Concubine Yun, and the concubine retired first." Jian Yao didn't want Concubine Yun to misunderstand and offend Concubine Yun.
The emperor thought for a while, but still agreed, "I will let Xiao Dezi send you back." "Xiao Dezi is the person next to the emperor, he serves the emperor big and small, and he can be regarded as the mouthpiece of the emperor, and the person who can let him send must be deeply favored by the emperor.
Xiao Dezi respectfully led the way in front, and Jian Yao suddenly asked, "Father-in-law, who is the emperor talking about?" ”
Xiao Dezi looked around, hesitated again and again and spoke, "The emperor is talking about Concubine Shu, who has been dead for many years, and it has always been a regret in the emperor's heart, so it is not mentioned in the palace, and it is right that Mrs. does not know." Xiao Dezi was also by the emperor's side at that time, and when he learned that Concubine Shu died, the emperor's haggard appearance was really worrying.
"I see, it seems that the emperor is also an infatuated person." It's just that those concubines are suffering, guarding such a man who has others in his heart.
"Jian Yao!" Suddenly stopped, Jian Yao came back to her senses, but she didn't expect it to be Wang Lin, and it looked like he had rushed over.
Xiao Dezi also retired with great insight, and since the main lord arrived, he didn't have to bother, so he turned around and went back after making a salute.
"Why are you here, you ......" Before Jian Yao could say a word, Wang Lin went up and hugged her.
"What's wrong with you, why are you holding me so tightly?" Jian Yao was almost out of breath from being hugged by Wang Lin, so she had to gently pat Wang Lin's back to let him relax.
"I received a report from the palace maid, saying that you were taken away by the emperor." Wang Lin was afraid that Jian Yao would not understand the rules, make a mistake, and collide with the emperor.
"Yes, the emperor also visited the garden with me." Jian Yao had a clear conscience, so she naturally had something to say.
"Huh? Visiting the garden together, just the two of you? Wang Lin immediately let go of Jian Yao and stared at Jian Yao vigilantly.
"Don't get me wrong, the emperor just misses the old man because of the fragrance on my body." Jian Yao hurriedly explained. It's rare that Wang Lin is so anxious about himself, and they can be considered reconciled, so don't misunderstand more.
"Scent?" Wang Lin sniffed, it was really different from usual, "I haven't seen you use this spice on weekdays." ”
"It's weird to talk about." Jian Yao told everything she had seen before, and Wang Lin's expression became strange.
Jian Yao called him several times, but he didn't answer. "Eh, if I don't go to the chrysanthemum garden again, maybe I can find out what royal secrets."
Wang Lin came back to his senses and reminded him: "Are there still few such things in the palace, you don't want to get involved anymore, let him go over the past things." ”
But Wang Lin thought in his heart that he had to go there in person, because the palace maid who worshiped was probably the only one who knew what happened back then.
I want him to stay in the palace just for one thing, that Concubine Shu is the only person who knows his background.
Seeing that he was so serious, Jian Yao had no choice but to nod and agree, thinking that the time she had agreed with Yun Lang had arrived, she found a reason, but she didn't expect that she could really fool the past.
And Wang Lin went to Juyuan alone, where there was still the smell of burning paper, and Wang Lin was even more sure that the palace maid who followed Concubine Shu back then must still be alive.
Wang Lin searched all the way and finally found the palace maid in a utility room.
When the palace maid saw someone coming, she didn't know what to do for a while, and the movements at hand stopped.
Wang Lin walked over step by step, "You are the palace maid who was originally by Concubine Shu's side?" Wang Lin spoke, but his feminine voice was oppressive.
The palace maid was originally fine, but when she heard the word Concubine Shu, she was like she was enchanted, and she turned around and ran.
Wang Lin's eyes were quick, and he turned over and blocked in front of the palace maid, "Today, the miscellaneous family has to know what happened back then, you can't run away." When Wang Lin saw the palace maid's reaction, he was even more convinced that he had found the right person.
"This father-in-law, the slave doesn't know anything, and there is nothing to say, father-in-law, please go back." The old palace maid trembled her voice and looked at Wang Lin vigilantly.
"What if it's about that kid? The miscellaneous family is here to tell you about that child this time, you are still worshipping Concubine Shu, you must be a loyal servant. The death of Concubine Shu back then, and the whereabouts of that child, don't you really know anything and don't care? Wang Lin pressed forward step by step, only to see that the palace maid's eyes were full of shock.
"What do you say, that child, where is that child now?" The old palace maid stepped forward and grabbed Wang Lin's sleeve excitedly, "It was useless to be a slave back then, and in the end I don't know where the child went, it's a slave and a maid I'm sorry for you, Concubine Shu!" The old palace maid suddenly burst into tears and looked at the sky, as if she was confessing to Concubine Shu in the sky.
What happened back then, everyone who knew about it died, and only she was fortunate to be able to survive in the palace, just to be able to find Concubine Shu's child.
Such a dusty past, I didn't expect such a young father-in-law to ask, it's really unusual. The old palace maid Qiu Ling has finally calmed down now, looking at this richly dressed and handsome father-in-law, I don't know whether to say it or not.
