When Su Jinli arrived at the gate of the palace, the wind and snow were extremely heavy, and she had just opened the curtains, and there was a cold wind mixed with Haoxue hitting her face, which was cold and biting, and she unconsciously shrank down.
The sharp-eyed guard saw Su Jinli in the carriage, and hurriedly bowed and saluted: "My subordinates knock to see Prince Qing!" โ
The rest of the guards also bowed down and saluted.
"Flat! This princess wants to enter the palace to see her father. Su Jinli raised her hand lightly, explaining her intention.
She has a noble status, and since the birth of Gu Xichen's brothers and sisters, she has been favored by the Queen Mother and Emperor Yongli, so the guards did not hesitate at all, and let them go directly.
After Su Jinli opened the palace gate, she tightened the fox fur on her body, and then got out of the carriage with the corner of her skirt, and walked to the palace alone with an eight-bone plum blossom umbrella.
"Princess! Wait a moment! The guard called urgently.
Su Jinli looked back and looked at the guard who spoke suspiciously.
"Now that the weather is freezing cold, the Queen Mother specially ordered that if a female dependent enters the palace, she does not have to abide by the palace rules, she can take a soft sedan chair!"
"In this case, I'll trouble you!" Su Jinli smiled lightly.
The Queen Mother is as kind-hearted as ever, but unfortunately, the cold and cold atmosphere in this palace is not something that one or two people can change!
"The princess is polite!" The young little guard scratched his head and said a little embarrassed.
Su Jinli smiled, didn't say anything, and stood in place waiting for the soft sedan to arrive.
Because the Queen Mother had already ordered, the guards had made all preparations early, and Su Jinli only waited for less than a stick of incense before the soft sedan chair arrived.
She rode in a soft sedan chair, and quickly disappeared at the gate of the palace under the congratulations of the guards, and walked towards the deep palace.
Although the wind and snow were mixed and there were several inches of snow on the ground, these palace people carrying sedan chairs still walked briskly in a neat and orderly manner, unaffected by the weather at all.
Soon, she was at the door of the imperial study.
After getting off the soft sedan chair, Su Jinli took off the jade bracelet worth 10,000 gold on her wrist and said, "You guys have worked hard!" This bracelet should be the reward given to you by this princess! โ
"The princess is gracious! This is the duty of the minions, and they dare not accept such a valuable reward from you! Several palace people politely refused.
After many years of immersion in the deep palace, they have all developed a pair of fiery eyes, and the bracelet on Su Jinli's hand is worth a lot of money, and they dare not accept it.
"Although it is your duty, what you have done has made this princess very satisfied, and it is not too much to reward you! Since this princess has already opened her mouth to reward it to you, there is no reason to take it back! Take it! โ
As he spoke, Su Jinli forcibly stuffed the bracelet to the palace people at the head, and then went up the stairs directly.
Seeing this, the palace people did not refuse, thanked them happily and left with the bracelet.
"This princess has something important to ask to see her father, and I am annoyed to report it to my father-in-law!" Su Jinli politely said to the little eunuch guarding the door.
If she was not summoned by Emperor Yongli, she would not have been able to enter the imperial study, so she had to be reported by the little eunuchs.
"Prince and Princess Qing have tormented the slaves! The minion will go in and report it! The little eunuch hurriedly laughed.
Su Jinli and his wife are in the holy favor, and they don't dare to slack off in the slightest.
Su Jinli knew that these little eunuchs were the masters of watching people's dishes, and they didn't poke them, so they only smiled politely and ran in briskly with him.
After the figure of the little eunuch disappeared in front of him, Su Jinli was dazed and helpless for a moment.
Even if she had been prepared for a long time, when she really arrived at the door of the imperial study, she still couldn't stop being afraid!
But at the same time, she also understands that she has no way back, no matter how dangerous the road ahead is, she can only go on hard.
She pinched her hand hidden in her wide sleeve hard, letting the pain spur her up.
The time when the little eunuch who was waiting outside to spread the word could be said to be the longest and most uneasy period of her life!
Just when she couldn't help but think about it, the little eunuch finally came out.
"Your Majesty declares your audience! Prince Qing inside please! The little eunuch arched his hand.
Hearing this, Su Jinli's chaotic brain calmed down in an instant, and she said indifferently: "Hmm! There is Lao Gonggong! โ
After that, he walked in under the leadership of the little eunuch.
In a few moments, she was at the door of the inner sanctum.
"Prince Qing and Princess Qing have arrived!" The little eunuch sang loudly.
Before the aftermath subsided, Changde's voice came from inside: "Xuan! โ
The little eunuch hurriedly said to Su Jinli respectfully: "Prince Qing and Princess Qing are invited, and the servants will not be accompanied!" โ
The imperial study is the place where Emperor Yongli deals with government affairs, the guards are strict, the rules are numerous, and the matters that each palace person is responsible for are also very clearly divided, and the palace people inside and outside the palace can not be posted at will.
This little eunuch is a palace man guarding the gate, and if he has nothing important, he cannot enter the inner hall.
Yes, Su Jinli didn't say anything, just nodded, and went to the inner hall alone.
When she arrived in the center of the main hall, she knelt down and bowed respectfully: "The son knocks to see his father!" Long live the father, long live, long live! โ
Emperor Yongli was criticizing the folding, and he didn't raise his head and said: "Flat!" Throne! โ
Su Jinli didn't get up as she said, she still maintained the posture of making a big salute.
"Prince Qing, Princess?" Changde wondered.
At the same time, Emperor Yongli finished writing the last word, took the fold, and suddenly raised his head.
Seeing her like this, she unconsciously jumped her eyebrows, and asked majestically: "I let you calm down, what are you still kneeling for?" โ
"Erchen has committed a great sin and does not dare to get up." Su Jinli said calmly.
"Oh? Tell me, what basket did you poke again? Emperor Yongli furrowed his brows and asked casually.
Su Jinli has always been easy to cause trouble, he only thought that Su Jinli had provoked the nobles of several families, and caused any bad criticism, and he didn't take it seriously.
Unexpectedly, Su Jin's words made his anger "rub" three feet at once.
"Erchen disobeyed the holy will and brought your eighth brother and sister who entered the Zongren Mansion to Prince Qing's Mansion." Su Jinli said word by word.
"What? How bold you are! I don't even take my decree seriously! With such wanton casualness, where does the law of my Great Swallow be placed? Emperor Yongli patted the imperial case and asked loudly.
Su Jinli closed her eyes and did not respond.
Emperor Yongli is angry, whatever she says will be wrong, the more she says, the more mistakes she makes, or it is safest to remain silent!
Changde and other palace people are also well versed in this glass, so for a while, the hall was so quiet that only the rapid breathing of Emperor Yongli was heard.
It took a long time for his breathing to stabilize again.
At this time, Chang De, who was pretending to be deaf and dumb on the side, hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is angry!" Prince Qing and Princess Qing will definitely not disobey the holy decree for no reason, why don't you ask the secret of this? โ
When he said this, firstly, he gave the angry Emperor Yongli a step down, and secondly, he was selling Su Jinli's favor.
Certainly, Su Jinli's pair of children are too sacred, and they will definitely have a bright future in the future, he can help if he can, and he will definitely be able to reap good returns in the future.
In the end, it was the old man who had served by Emperor Yongli's side for many years, and in just one sentence it reached Emperor Yongli's heart, Emperor Yongli pondered slightly, and then followed his words and asked: "Su Jinli, what's wrong with the Eighth Imperial Princess, you actually let you take her out of the Zongren Mansion despite my anger?" โ
Emperor Yongli thought about it in his heart, and he also felt that there must be something hidden in this matter.
After all, Su Jinli was notorious and stupid when she didn't marry Gu Mingjue, but after getting married, she was like a different person, looking domineering but smart and wise, and she would definitely not do such a thing for no reason.
"The eighth brother and sister had a miscarriage! The body is weak and weak, and it must be well lived. Su Jinli said truthfully.
This is all the truth, if Emperor Yongli wants to check, he can find out in an instant, and she really has no need to hide it.
"What? Did the Eighth Imperial Concubine have a miscarriage? Emperor Yongli's eyes widened again.
He has a lot of heirs, but there are very few grandchildren, and Su Jinli and a few of them have come out, and he especially expects to have a few more royal grandchildren.
Can ...... now He learned that one of his imperial grandsons had been stillborn!
How did he not be surprised? How not to be sad?
"Yes!" Su Jinli has always maintained the action of kowtowing, so she can't see the disappointment and sadness in Emperor Yongli's eyes clearly, and she replied indifferently.
Hearing her affirmation, Emperor Yongli's eyes quickly flashed a trace of pain, and then he said a little dejectedly: "You get up!" โ
Su Jinli, shouldn't Emperor Yongli be thunderous and angry, shouting to punish her? How could it be so calm to get her up?
Although a thousand questions welled up in her heart, she obediently obeyed Emperor Yongli and stood up.
Emperor Yongli rubbed the corners of his forehead, and then said, "You don't just disobey the holy decree, right?" Did you still have a dispute with your Uncle Ninghuang? โ
According to what she said, Emperor Yongli had already guessed everything that happened in the Zongren Mansion.
The royal family members imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion are not qualified to hire imperial doctors and doctors unless there is an amnesty decree from the emperor.
Su Jinli can be so sure that the Eighth Emperor Concubine has a miscarriage and injured her body, and she must have known it after a doctor's diagnosis.
It is not difficult to imagine how she deliberately violated the rules of the Zongren Mansion to invite the imperial doctor and other doctors.
She is arrogant and cold, and King Ning is a stubborn and rule-abiding person, plus their positions are different, one wants to ask for a doctor and the other is not allowed, and they will definitely quarrel in the dark.
"Erchen made disrespectful remarks and contradicted Uncle Ninghuang!" Su Jinli said with a little embarrassment.
Although King Ning was too stubborn and rigid, the words she said at the end were still rude, and she was very polite, which really shouldn't be done to the elders.
"I know! Alas! Anyway, if you break the rules of the sect's mansion in the first place, and directly resist the last, if I don't punish you, it will inevitably be out of character! I'll punish you...... Punish you for thinking about it behind closed doors for half a month, and copy "Women's Rules" every day! Emperor Yongli sighed helplessly.
There is a reason for this, he didn't want to pursue Su Jinli's resistance, but she was fortunate to offend King Ning alive, so he could only give some punishment!
