Chapter 551: Disheartened
Sima Ru tugged at the corners of his mouth, but he still didn't hook the smile on the corner of his mouth, thinking that he was going to leave with Ning'er and them tonight, Sima Ru was simply too lazy to pretend, he nodded, his voice was indifferent, "I haven't entered the palace to say hello to the queen mother for many days, and I happened to be free this afternoon, come over to ask the queen mother to say goodbye, and by the way, I chatted with the queen mother." ”
Concubine Xiao Shu smiled, "I didn't ask the imperial sister what she was doing in the palace, the queen mother is in the palace, and you are the emperor's most respected imperial sister, so naturally you should enter the palace and move around more." As he spoke, he looked at the Queen Mother and asked in a low voice, "Queen Mother, you said that the concubine is right?"
"Alright." The Queen Mother didn't want to show Concubine Xiao Shufei's face, but Concubine Xiao Shufei embarrassed her daughter in front of her, she wasn't dead yet! Immediately, the Queen Mother's face sank, she looked at Concubine Xiao Shu coldly, and said in a deep voice, "The mourning family is tired now, don't stay here, there are a lot of things in the harem today, you should pay more attention to yourself, don't let the mourning family have an old bone and take charge of the harem for you!" ”
Concubine Xiao Shufei heard that the Queen Mother was threatening herself, the smile on her face quickly retracted, said yes in a low voice, and left with her grandmother.
Sima Ru looked at the back of Concubine Xiao Shu leaving, frowned, retracted her gaze to look at the Queen Mother, and asked in a low voice, "The emperor plans to hand over the power of the harem to Concubine Xiao Shu?" ”
"You don't care so much, the emperor naturally has his own reasons for doing things." The Queen Mother retracted her gaze lightly, stretched out her hand and rubbed her eyebrows, and sent off the guest, "You can go back too, the mourning family is tired, and you need to take a rest." ”
Sima Ru glanced at the Queen Mother in a daze, pursed her lips, wanted to say something but couldn't say anything, so she could only stand up in response, walked a few steps, Sima Ru came back and looked at the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother saw that she hadn't left yet, and just about to speak, she saw Sima Ru kneeling down, and the Queen Mother frowned, "What are you doing here?" What is there to ask for a mourning family? Or is Ning'er in trouble? Speaking of this, the Queen Mother frowned, and said hesitantly, "Ning'er has changed a lot in the past year, it shouldn't cause anything, what are you doing on your knees?" ”
Sima Ru knocked on the ground, raised her eyes and looked at the Queen Mother, her eyes were red, the Queen Mother's brows wrinkled even more, Sima Ru said, "In the future, this harem is Concubine Xiao Shu in power, and I'm afraid it won't be so easy for the retainer to come back to greet you, the queen mother must pay attention to her body, don't be angry, angry body, you must wear more clothes in winter, if you burn charcoal in the palace, you must ventilate, it is best to let the palace people burn the earth dragon, the charcoal basin is always not as good as the earth dragon, and don't always put ice cubes in the room in the summer, It is better for the queen mother to go to the palace to escape the heat, otherwise the body bones will definitely hurt easily in the future, and rheumatism will not be cured..."
"What are you talking about!" The Queen Mother looked at Sima Ru who was kneeling on the ground deeply, and said in a cold voice, "Even if the emperor supports her, if she dares to prevent you from entering the palace, the mourning family can still take back her power!" ”
Sima Ru smiled and nodded lightly, "What the queen mother said is that you are the heart of power in this palace, Ru'er thinks a lot, but today I still want to talk to the queen mother about this." After speaking, he knelt on the ground and saluted the Queen Mother before standing up and walking outside the palace.
The Queen Mother muttered and looked at Sima Ru's back, her brows became more and more advanced, and suddenly she stood up and called Sima Ru and shouted, "It's not too early, why don't you go back after having dinner with your mother?" ”
Sima Ru's footsteps suddenly stopped, she looked back at the Queen Mother who had already stood up, walked over quickly and hugged the Queen Mother, and said softly, "Queen Mother, you must take care of your body, don't let Ru'er worry outside the palace, and, Concubine Xiao Shu... And the emperor... You also asked the emperor to pay attention to his body, his poison has just been solved, and it is not suitable to work hard, this is what Ning'er said, the prince is still waiting for me to go back to eat together, and the retainer will not accompany you to eat. ”
The Queen Mother said angrily, "I say that I miss my mother, but in my heart, I am actually most concerned about your King Jin and my three children, right?" He added, "The mourning family knows, if it's okay tomorrow, go into the palace and recite the scriptures with the mourning family." ”
Sima Ru opened his mouth and nodded, "Erchen knows, Erchen will definitely enter the palace tomorrow to accompany his mother and recite sutras." ”
"Tomorrow is your father's death day, the emperor has forgotten, the mourning family can't be forgotten, you also recite a sutra to your father, and it will not be in vain that your father loves you." The Queen Mother said and waved her hand, "Go back, the mourning family is tired." ”
Sima Ru bowed and retreated, holding the tears in her eyes until she walked out of Xiangning Palace, at this time she felt that her eyes were dark, she raised her eyes and reached out to wipe her tears.
Concubine Xiao Shufei was slightly stunned when she saw Sima Ru's appearance, and soon returned to her normal color, the corners of her mouth hooked up a faint smile, and said, "Sister Huang, what's wrong?" The queen mother said about you? ”
Sima Ru reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes the moment she saw Concubine Xiao Shu, and her expression also returned to her indifference and detachment, hearing Concubine Xiao Shufei ask like this, she said lightly, "I haven't congratulated Concubine Xiao Shufei on taking power and becoming the first person in this harem." ”
"Look at what you said, Sister Huang, isn't this a blessing from the county lord of Changning, if it weren't for the county lord of Changning, how could I get rid of the opponents in the palace so quickly and become the lord of this harem?" Concubine Xiao Shu played with her nails, looked at Sima Ru, the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked, and said lightly, "Please also ask the imperial sister to thank Changning on my behalf, thank her for all this she has done to us for a while, I Xiao Yunshu knows best in this life is to repay her kindness, and I will definitely take good care of her in the future." ”
Sima Ru's eyes narrowed, her hands were clenched tightly, and soon she returned to her normal color, raised her eyes to look at Concubine Xiao Shu, and chuckled, "Really? Then I must tell Ning'er, since you have nothing to do, the palace will leave the palace first, and Ning'er and they are still waiting for the palace to leave the palace for dinner. He said with a faint smile and said, "Isn't Concubine Xiao still dining with her good daughter?" ”
Concubine Xiao's face sank, and her eyes squinted at the eldest princess, damn it! How does this Sima Ru know that Xuan'er hasn't entered her palace gate for a long time, although Jiao'er still wants to enter her own palace gate now, but there is a little estrangement, it is since Qin Changning was poisoned that time, her Jiao'er has been estranged from her, although it has been a little better in the past two days, but it is still separated from her!
Sima Ru felt Concubine Xiao's hot gaze, sneered, and left the palace quickly with Zicen.
At the gate of the palace, Sima Ru looked back at the majestic palace, with a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, the original reluctance and inability to let go, at this moment, he was able to let go so easily, it was so simple to want to be disheartened.
"Go home." Sima Ru turned around and stepped on the pedal and got into the carriage.
