Act 61 The Empress Dowager of Filial Piety

Remember in a second

"The deceased is gone, so Xiao Yu'er don't have to be sad." The Queen Mother patted the back of Yu Xuanxun's hand with pity, "In the future, you will live in the Cixiang Palace, and the Palace will never let anyone hurt you." ”

The Queen Mother is so loving that Yu Xuanxun is a little frightened, "The Queen Mother is so loving, Xuanxun really doesn't dare to be honest, and I hope the Queen Mother ......"

"Silly girl, don't you want to come to the Mourning Family's Cixiang Palace to be a palace maid, as a person in the Mourning Palace, who would dare to bully you." The Queen Mother lovingly brushed her face.

Yu Xuanxun immediately knelt down and thanked him, "Thank you Queen Mother for accepting Xuanxun." ”

The Queen Mother showed a sincere smile that she hadn't seen for a long time, and wanted to help Yuxuanxun up, "Little Yu'er, hurry up, I'll ask Xin An to take you to see your room, and then change your clothes." ”

"Xiao Yu'er?" Yuxuan was surprised why the Queen Mother called her so.

"You are the same as the mourning family, there is a jade character in your name, you are the surname of jade, the mourning family is the name of jade, because you feel kind, so you call you Xiaoyuer, and even more because of your father's relationship."

"Then Xuanxun will be the Queen Mother's little Yu'er in the future."

Yu Xuanxun went to his room under the leadership of Xin An, and when he was ready to change his clothes, he was the queen mother's palace maid and had not received any arrangements, so he felt a little at a loss.

Standing outside the door, worried about the situation of Qi Shi Ruomei and Zhiye, "I don't know how they are now?" ”

Shi Ruomei and Yun Zihui came to Liuyu Palace one after another, and the Nine Princes saw that there was no Jade Xuanxun for the comer, so they handed over the scene to the two princesses and left.

Because of the death of her sister, the nine princesses had no intention of interfering in the affairs of the show girl in the heartache, and said that they were tired and left early.

Princess Shi never thought that Ruomei would come to Liuyu Palace, so she didn't recruit her side in order to avoid suspicion, and she didn't leave Yun Zihui. On the contrary, Princess Di chose Shi Ruomei, and Yun Zihui was assigned to the Nine Princesses.

As for Lin Xinxu and Zhiye both went to the imperial study to report, the emperor's holy face was so easy to see, and as soon as he arrived, he was assigned to the tea palace maid by the eunuch in charge.

The two were also placed in the same room.

In the evening, Xin An came to pass the Empress Dowager's decree, saying that she wanted to invite Yuxuanxun to dine together.

"Xuan Xun see the Queen Mother."

"Xiao Yu'er is coming to the mourning family and has dinner with the mourning family." The Queen Mother smiled and beckoned to Yuxuan.

Yu Xuan Xun explored the position next to the Queen Mother, and her footsteps did not dare to move easily, "The Queen Mother is noble, how dare Xuan Xun eat at the same table with you." ”

The Queen Mother sighed softly when she heard this, "It is precisely because of the special identity of the mourning family, so every time it is time to eat, the mourning family feels that the food does not know the taste, and it has been enjoyed alone for many years. ”

Yuxuan thought for a moment and asked carefully, "What about the emperor?" Have you never dined with the Queen Mother? ”

"The emperor has every opportunity, and only occasionally comes to sit with the mourning family." The Queen Mother sighed again as she spoke, "What's more, since the death of the deceased, since the emperor ascended the throne, he has almost put his mind on state affairs. ”

"Queen Mother......" Yuxuan looked sad when he saw the Queen Mother, and couldn't help but call lightly.

"Xiao Yu'er, can you dine with the lonely man of the mourning family?" The Queen Mother turned to look at Yuxuan and asked.

Yuxuan saw the expectation in the queen mother's eyes, and couldn't bear to refuse again, "Xuanxun obeys." He sat down beside the Queen Mother respectfully, picked up his chopsticks and put the food into the bowl, "The Queen Mother, please eat." ”

"Xiao Yu'er doesn't have to be polite." The smile on the Queen Mother's face was extremely obvious, and even Xin An followed suit.

"Xiao Yu'er, let's eat more." The Queen Mother happily kept putting vegetables into Yuxuanxun's bowl, "By the way, are you coming to Beijing alone?" ”

Yu Xuanxun put down his chopsticks and replied, "Back to the Queen Mother, this time I came to Beijing, Xuanxun came alone, as for the death of my father, I am afraid that my mother has not known about it." After a pause, he continued, "Because my sister-in-law is about to give birth, Xuan Xun wants to wait for my sister-in-law to give birth before telling the news, but now I am afraid that the person sent by the emperor has already arrived at Yumen Villa." ”

"And who informed you of the draft?"

"It's King Rui." Yu Xuanxun said without thinking, "Xuanxun wanted to visit his father in the military camp and tell his sister-in-law that she was pregnant, but she heard the news of her father's death before she arrived at the barracks. It was King Rui who told Xuan Xun that his father's last wish was to hope that Xuan Xun could enter the palace to participate in the draft and open up branches for the royal family. ”

"Maybe your father also knows the emperor's heart knot, and he didn't forget to take care of the court when he died, and ordered you to be the emperor's woman, I should hope that you can open the emperor's heart knot for many years, and set up a concubine as soon as possible, so that there will be a successor to the royal family."

"In my father's heart, the kingdom is always more important than the family. This time, thanks to the help of King Rui, the news of his father's death was temporarily blocked in Yumen Villa. ”

The Queen Mother's hand stiffened, her chopsticks slipped, and she said with some lost soul, "Have you seen King Rui, he ...... Luckily? ”

Yuxuanxun was a little inexplicable, I don't know why the Queen Mother was so excited, she only replied truthfully, "King Rui has a lot of prestige in the military camp, and everyone respects him even more, and there is also the meticulous care of Mrs., King Rui is fine." ”

"That's good, that's good......" The Queen Mother began to mumble to herself, as if she thought of something, she grabbed Xuanxun's hand and said, "You said Madame?" Did King Rui get married? ”

"yes, it seems to be called Jing...... Jing...... Tong Jingxuan, by the way, it's right to be called Tong Jingxuan. ”

"Jing Xuan? She didn't die? The Queen Mother clenched Yuxuanxun's arm emotionally, pinching her in pain.

It's just that the unknown Yu Xuanxun didn't dare to make a mistake in front of the Queen Mother, so he had no choice but to endure it, "According to what Xuanxun saw, King Rui and his wife are very affectionate, and they are as enviable as fairy love." ”

Xin An couldn't stand it a little, and called softly, "Queen Mother, please eat first, it won't taste good if it's cold." ”

The Queen Mother, who realized her gaffe, withdrew her hand in embarrassment, "The mourning family didn't hurt you, Xiao Yu'er, can you help the mourning family do something." ”

"To do things for the Queen Mother, it is incumbent on Xuanxun."

"That's good, I'll tell you when the mourners are ready."

"But it's up to the Queen Mother to arrange."

After dinner, Yuxuanxun obeyed the order and returned to the room, but this meal made her feel a lot of questions and puzzles.

Xin An was puzzled by the Queen Mother's generous treatment of Yuxuanxun from the beginning, and now ......, "Queen Mother, the slave dares to ask the Queen Mother, why is she so intimate with Yuxuanxun?" ”

The Queen Mother has not yet withdrawn from the uncontrolled emotions in the dinner, and is indulging in the love of her son, "Because the mourning family wants to fulfill his wish for Brother Yu and let Xiao Yu'er marry the emperor, I didn't expect that she still knew Rui'er." ”

"It is good that the Queen Mother wants to fulfill her wish for General Yuheng, but if she can't be accepted by the emperor, even if he becomes a concubine in the future, I'm afraid it will only hurt the Jade Girl. The example of King Rui and Princess Rui is the best proof. ”

The Queen Mother pondered, "What you said is not wrong, it is gratifying that Jingxuan is not dead and has returned to Rui'er's side, so his heart should be healed." ”

"Queen Mother, the weather outside is very good today, why don't you let Xuan Xun go out for a walk with you?" Yuxuanxun, who accompanied the Queen Mother after breakfast, was serving tea to the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother took a sip of tea and thought about it slightly, "Xiao Yu'er's proposal is not bad, the mourning family may not have gone to the emperor's imperial study for a long time to sit, so let's accompany the mourning family today." ”

Yu Xuanxun couldn't help but smile at the thought of having the opportunity to meet Zhiye, "Xiao Yu'er obeys." ”

It is said that since Lin Xinxu and Zhiye became the maids of the tea palace in the imperial study, in order to have the opportunity to meet the emperor, Lin Xinxu couldn't help but try his best to please all the palace people who worked in the imperial study, and even suppressed Zhiye everywhere, making Zhiye, who was originally a little inferior, even more inferior and cowardly.

"Zhiye, have you picked the tea over there?" Lin Xinxu sat comfortably on the side, stumbling on his mouth in enjoyment, and asked in a commanding tone.

Although Zhiye was indignant in his heart, because his father was a few levels lower than his father, he didn't dare to refute loudly, and only replied lightly, "It's going to take a while." ”

"Hurry up, the emperor will come to the imperial study later, don't you can't get the tea then." Lin Xinxu urged eagerly.

Zhiye didn't reply, just silently continued to pick tea.

I don't know how long it took, but as soon as Zhiye was finished, a eunuch came over and said that the emperor had returned to the imperial study and asked them to make a few more cups of tea.

Lin Xinxu immediately came to the spirit, because she finally persuaded the consul of the palm tea to let her go today, but unfortunately the original palm tea palace maid Xiaohua was not feeling well, so she let Zhiye go to the top.

The emperor and several civil officials were discussing disaster relief, Lin Xinxu and Zhiye successively served tea, and their handsome faces and majestic posture deeply attracted the attention of the two people.

Reluctantly retreated and peeked quietly, because he was too focused on the emperor's every move, he didn't notice that there was a set of vases next to him, Lin Xinxu knocked over all the vases with a wrong step, and a few fell directly to the ground with a crisp breaking sound.

Suddenly the atmosphere of discussion was broken, and it became very condensed.

"Queen Mother, the imperial study is about to arrive, do you want the slave to report first?" Xin An asked.

The Queen Mother stopped and said, "No, the mourning family wants to give the emperor a surprise visit." ”

Yu Xuanxun faintly heard the movement of the shout, which seemed to be the voice of Zhiye, so he said worriedly, "Queen Mother, it seems that something is happening in front, it is better to let Xuanxun go and see first." ”

"Xiao Yu'er, the mourning family will go with you."

As he slowly approached, Yu Xuanxun became more and more sure that Zhiye was shouting, "The emperor spares his life...... The vase was not broken by a slave...... Ask the emperor to spare the slaves and maids......"

Yuxuan Xun saw that Zhiye was forcibly pulled out by two guards, and shouted injustice with all his might, but he couldn't control his emotions and rushed over, pushing the guards away hard, and protecting Zhiye behind him, "Zhiye, don't be afraid, I'm here." ”

"Eldest sister......" Zhiye saw that Yuxuanxun was coming, and all the grievances poured out, crying and hugging Yuxuanxun.

The Queen Mother then came, "What happened?" ”

At this time, Lai Ning greeted him, "I didn't know that the Queen Mother was coming, which frightened Feng Jia." ”

"Laining, you came just in time, this ......"

Lai Ning glanced at Yuxuanxun and Zhiye, and replied to the Queen Mother, "The slave is not easy to answer, and I ask the Queen Mother to ask the emperor in person." ”

"Xiao Yu'er, you wait here, and the mourning family will go and ask." Saying that, the Queen Mother entered the imperial study.
