223 Seizure of maids
Thinking unsteadily when the sky was dark, Lin Su fell asleep again.
Because she didn't sleep well in the middle of the night, when she got up the next morning, her face was a little paler than before, and after calling Chunyan to come over and dress her, her face was even more haggard, plus the slightly frowning eyebrows, when she asked the Empress Dowager Lan and the Empress Dowager Zhao to say goodbye, they were all asked what happened.
Lin Su always deduced that the window was not tightly controlled when he slept last night, and a little cool breeze blew.
It's just that Empress Dowager Lan was thoughtful, and Empress Dowager Zhao's expression was with a hint of clarity. Lin Su watched the performance of the two people, and secretly knew it in his heart, and understood that he was only afraid of the conversation at the Empress Dowager Zhao yesterday, but he was afraid that the Empress Dowager Lan was not very clear, even if he was not very clear, he also knew it in his heart.
After taking a nap in the afternoon, Chang Fugui personally ran to Fuliu Palace, saying that the emperor would come over in a while. When Lin Su heard this, he motioned to Xia Yan on the side to personally stuff Chang Fugui with a purse, and then said in a low voice: "What does the emperor command?" ”
"The emperor didn't give orders, just said come and sit down and take a look at the two little masters." Chang Fugui raised his eyes as he said and glanced at Lin Su quickly, with a smile in his eyes, and said in a low voice: "The emperor's mood seems to be good. ”
Lin Su was stunned and said with a smile: "I'm tired of my father-in-law, Xia Yan, I remember that the kitchen sent some soybean yolk before, you can ask Father-in-law Chang to come over and taste the taste." ”
Xia Yan immediately smiled and saluted, and led the polite father-in-law Chang to the side hall.
Lin Su breathed a sigh of relief, returned to the inner hall to make up his makeup, and then re-leaned on the beauty couch in the outer hall and looked at it comfortably with a book.
It was only about half an hour, and Lin Su slowly read a dozen pages of a book, and Si Yue took Chang Fugui to Fuliu Palace.
Lin Su hurriedly got up and greeted him, and when he saluted, he glanced slightly sideways at Chunyan who was guarding the side.
Chunyan served tea to the two of them, and then bowed and withdrew. As soon as she left the main hall, she took a private look, passed through the arch outside, and saw that the palace maid who was supposed to be guarding here was nowhere to be seen.
At this moment, Chunyan's face became not very good-looking. She looked around, and stood in the place where the palace maid should have been guarding, her expression calm and cold. After waiting for almost a cup of tea, I saw two little palace maids walking towards this side while laughing.
She just stood there and didn't say anything, let alone remind the two palace maids, and faintly heard what they were discussing happily, and her face became even colder.
When the two palace maids approached and saw her, her face was already so cold that it was frightening, and her eyes were even more murderous.
Chunyan has always been gentle and has never been angry in front of people. Under normal circumstances, even if the little palace maids are ignorant and make mistakes, she will usually only mention a few words in private, and never show her face to anyone.
Therefore, the two little palace maids were so frightened when they saw Chunyan's face that they immediately stopped, and one of them hesitated for a moment, and then stepped forward and said, "Why is my sister here, but what did Niangniang send you out for?" ”
"Niangniang is talking to the emperor in the palace, I'm just coming out to stand." Chunyan's gaze shot at the two little palace maids as if there was substance, "It's the two of you, I've been here for almost two cups of tea, and you're just here?" ”
"Sister...... Sister Chunyan...... We're just ...... It's ......"
"I went to the thatched house, I didn't expect the emperor to come over at this time, sister, it's the fault of the two of us, and please say good things to the two of us in front of my mother......"
"Went to the hut?" Chunyan sneered, "You two are on duty at this time, don't you know the rules in this palace at all?" At least one person should be left here. ”
With a sneer, she called out the two grandmothers waiting on the side, "Bother the two grandmothers, escort these two girls who have left their posts without permission to the empty room behind, the emperor is talking to the master in the palace, don't disturb the masters." ”
The two grandmothers heard the qin and knew the elegance, and waited for Chunyan to turn into the arch, then looked at the two little maids with a smile, and said, "Two girls, in order not to disturb the emperor, I can only wronged you." With that, they stepped forward, covered the mouths of the two maids, and twisted them across the path to overwhelm the empty house in the backyard of the Fuliu Palace, and as soon as they threw it inside, they locked the door, and said outside: "The two girls are better to live in peace, otherwise we will be unwelcome." ”
"Please also ask the two grandmothers to help us hand a word to Sister Chunyan, today we didn't deliberately leave our posts without permission, but really because we ate something bad at lunch, and our stomach hurts and I can't stand it......"
"Let's keep this girl and wait for Miss Chunyan to come, our two mothers-in-law are just following orders to lock up the two girls. Please don't make it difficult for us. Otherwise, we would have had to tie up the two girls and gag the girls' mouths. ”
The two grandmothers outside sneered as they spoke, and after a while they heard that the room was completely quiet, so they moved a small stool and sat at the door and chatted.
After Chunyan asked the two grandmothers to escort the two derelict little palace maids, she went to the kitchen to bring some snacks that had just been made, and returned to the Fuliu Hall to serve. While Si Yue was not paying attention, he nodded at Lin Su. Lin Su understood in his heart, took a deep breath slowly, and then smiled and refilled the tea for Si Yue, and continued to talk about the conversation between her and the Empress Dowager Zhao after everyone left yesterday.
"Because when I was in the boudoir, I accompanied my mother to the Chen family, and there are still some old friendships between the concubine and Concubine Chen." Lin Su whispered, "It's just that after entering the palace, the two of them have different statuses, and she has become an elder again, so naturally there will be fewer contacts." Since the death of the first emperor, the concubines have begged the emperor for grace and taken care of her. ”
Si Yue took a sip of tea, and then said, "I remember, there is such a thing. ”
Lin Su laughed slightly, obviously relieved, and continued to speak.
"It's also because of this, so I also have some dealings with Concubine Chen on weekdays." She lowered her eyes, "As for yesterday in the Queen Mother's palace, in fact, Concubine Chen's words, the concubines were also very surprised." After all, guarding the imperial mausoleum has always been punished by concubines and palace maids who make mistakes. Concubine Chen took the initiative to ask for this, and the concubine felt that it was wrong at that time, although she had said similar things in front of the concubine before......"
Looking up and glancing at Si Yue cautiously, Lin Su's eyes were nervous and uneasy, "Plus the Queen Mother's expression at that time was wrong, the concubine panicked for a moment and said something that shouldn't be said." I'm afraid that Concubine Chen will blame the concubine if she knows what the concubine said. ”
