Chapter 433: Quiet in the Night

Mama Bo was waiting for the Queen Mother to comb her hair, and the horn comb slipped from the top of her head to the end from the long black hair, but this jet-black light was only on the surface, and there was already a lot of white hair in it.

The Queen Mother is a person who knows the destiny of heaven, and never asks the slaves and maids to help pull out the gray hair, and when it grows, it grows, and there is nothing to worry about. In her own words, even if she doesn't want to be old, she is already old. It's useless to struggle in vain, it's better to look away.

When Mama Wu and Jing Min came back in the afternoon, she was ordered by the Queen Mother to go to the Lingwang Mansion to give Concubine Cai a reward, but she was not in the palace in time, but she was also lucky. If she was in Cining Palace at that time, it would have been a bit of a dilemma when it came to her niece and granddaughter.

Listening to Jingmin, the Queen Mother asked Jiang Zhongyi to send a secret edict to King Chen, and no one knew what kind of instructions were made in that edict. It's late at night, and if you want to know what the Queen Mother will do with Xinlan, you can either ask the Queen Mother directly, or you can only wait for tomorrow.

If it comes from King Chen's mansion tomorrow, it is the news that Xinlan is dead...... There's no way, it's her own life, and others can't control it or help it. But it was because of her that Xinlan was able to enter the palace of the king of Chen, and now if she really suffers and dies, under Jiuquan, she really has no face to face her ancestors.

At this time, if the Queen Mother really made the decree that King Chen would give Xinlan to death, everything would have been a foregone conclusion, and it was not something she could control.

After listening to Mama Wu and Jing Min talk about the situation in the palace, she believed that Xinlan had indeed done such a thing. Xinlan did such a thing, and she was very dissatisfied in her heart. was disappointed in Xinlan, knowing that she deserved it, so she didn't want to plead with the Queen Mother. After a while, the matter was put on hold.

At this time, it was late at night, and the silence in Cining Palace was terrifying, which made her heart, who didn't want to take care of it, hesitate at this time.

When people get old, they think about it more, and these family affections that they didn't care much about when they were young become more and more cherished when they get old.

When she was young, her father and mother sent her into the palace as a good son in order to marry her brother and for a little reward from the government, and since then she has ignored her.

When I heard from the mouth of a fellow countryman's palace daughter who had returned to her hometown at the end of the year, I heard that she had served the queen and was soaring, so she changed her attitude again, and when she could see her at the Beigong Gate for half an hour every year, she would come to visit her. She did not do a bad job, and since you had the heart to come to see me, it was not good for you to spend money on the carriage and horses, so I gave them some money every time.

Later, my father and mother died, so I changed to my brother's family to visit. Two years ago, my brother also died, so I changed my nephew's family to visit. Her nephew and daughter-in-law Xu are reluctant to stammer, and every time she just asks her nephew to bring something with her heart, but she has never come. Until the year when Xinlan entered the palace and was given to King Chen by the Queen Mother.

In half an hour, I said a lot of heart-wrenching words, all of which were grateful to her and longing for her daughter. Gratitude is a polite word, and outside the words, she can hear that her nephew and daughter-in-law are not grateful, but complaining. complained that her nephew sent her daughter to the palace, and complained that she was doing things in front of the queen mother. It's just that the matter has come to this point, and there is no way to change it, so it is difficult to say it, and I can only count on her to take care of Xinlan more.

She was really worried about Xinlan before, and whenever she had the opportunity, she also taught her intentionally. Let her not compete for favor, don't lose her heart. didn't think about it, but something like this still happened, how could she not be cold?

"Zhaoyun, are you worried about your niece and granddaughter?" When the Queen Mother saw Mama Bo's heavy thoughts in the bronze mirror, she knew that she must be worried about Bo Xinlan.

My own nieces and granddaughters, worry is certain. It's just that I don't want to plead with my master because of my identity.

"The mourning family has let Zhongyi pass on his will, and at this moment your nephew and granddaughter have no worries about their lives. It is estimated that he was just demoted by the third child. Out of the way...... has the will of the mourning family, no matter how her position is lowered, it is only on the surface, inside, who is not like a mirror in her heart? Instead, it was raised a few points. The Queen Mother said.

When Mama Bo heard this, she knelt down and kowtowed: "Thank you for the Queen Mother's kindness!" Xinlan committed such a crime, but the Queen Mother still spared her life. The queen mother's kindness to the slave and maid is like a mountain, and the slave and maid have no way to repay the slave and maid for their death. ”

The Queen Mother got up and walked to the bed, and said, "Get up, there is no need to be polite between you and me." ”

Hearing the Queen Mother's voice, she was a little tired, so Mama Bo didn't say anything and got up.

The Queen Mother said: "Now except for your nephew's family, you have no relatives." I heard you talk about his family before, and I think his family is a very reasonable person. If the mourning family walks ahead of you in the future, and the emperor lets you go out of the palace, you still have a place to stay. They thought that you had given his daughter the glory, and they would not have treated you badly. ”

Mama Bo's tears swirled in her eyes, and she whispered: "Slaves and maids follow the Queen Mother in life and death." ”

Even her father and mother don't love her, in this world, the only person who is kind to her is the queen mother. If the Queen Mother really walked ahead of her, she would definitely follow the Queen Mother. We must not let the Queen Mother have no one over there who is handy.

The Queen Mother sighed and said, "The mourning family knows that you are loyal...... All your life, you have been trapped in this Weiyang Palace, and you don't even have a man to be a companion by your side. Now that he is old, if he has the opportunity, he should still go out of the palace and live a comfortable life for a few years. People say that fallen leaves return to their roots. The girl who is not married must be buried in the ancestral grave of her mother's family to be stable. ”

Mama Bo hung her head and was silent. She knew that the Queen Mother was for her good, but she had made up her mind and would never change it.

The Queen Mother pulled the quilt and covered it, leaned on the pillow and said: "Actually, this time, I think about you as one of them, and the main thing is that the mourning family wants to contain Rong Yunxi." ”

"The Queen Mother is the ...... of what Concubine Cai said last time," Mama Bo guessed a little.

Last time, Concubine Cai said that before King Ling set off, the wind blew at the back door of the palace all night. Fortunately, someone sent him something to persuade him to come back. But he was frozen, his eyes were red, and he didn't speak all night. So much so that she worried for a while, for fear that King Ling would catch the wind and cold that night, and her body would be tired and uncomfortable on the road.

This is clearly saying that King Ling and Princess Chen made an appointment to elope, but Princess Chen didn't go for some reason, but instead sent someone to send something ruthless.

She told the mourning family about this, but she didn't have any good intentions, she just talked about Rong Yunxi's rights and wrongs behind her back, and deliberately let the mourning family beware of Rong Yunxi. Although she is not a good child, she does not dare to lie to this. If it weren't for this, she wouldn't dare to say it. It can be seen that the child is still restless. The Queen Mother said.

Mama Bo said: "Maybe it's the wishful thinking of His Royal Highness King Ling?" After seeing Princess Chen a few times, the slave maid also felt that Princess Chen was a very smart person. If His Royal Highness King Heling leaves, what will she get? It's just a life that doesn't see the light for the rest of your life. But in King Chen's mansion, she ......"

Mama Bo deliberately lowered her voice and said meaningfully: "The future is immeasurable. ”

"But no," the Queen Mother said, "and because of this, she didn't go with King Ling." It's enough to see how clever she is. But being smart doesn't necessarily mean what you do. Ling'er can do such a thing, it must be because she gave Ling'er hope before. The worst is not to refuse, and it must not be resolutely refused......"

"At the palace banquet, in front of the mourning family and the emperor, I played a good show, I don't know what happened behind the scenes. A slap can't make a sound, if she resolutely refuses, so that Ling'er doesn't even have a chance to talk to her alone, how can there be this one waiting at the back door? ”

Mama Bo felt that the Queen Mother's consideration was also reasonable. Even if King Ling is wishful thinking, he always has to let Princess Chen know that he is waiting, right? If there is no opportunity to meet and speak alone, or if there is no private instruction, how can he dare to wait outside? Isn't that just waiting to show yourself? What's the use of daydreaming?

The mourning family wants to remind her that even if she relies on the favor of the third child, her life may not be stable. Don't think that she can calculate everything and do whatever she wants. Xinlan restrained her, and in order to maintain her status, she was able to be more attentive to the third child. Even if it's flattery, at least she has to act like a wife. Don't always shave your head and pick a hot head, she only cares about doing superficial work in front of outsiders. ”

Mama Bo knew that the Queen Mother was thinking safely, if Xinlan was gone, there would be no one in the palace who could compete with Princess Chen. The princess may be even more unsatisfied with His Royal Highness King Chen.

It's not just Concubine Cai who reminded the Queen Mother, when the Prince's Mansion was just lifted a few days ago, the Crown Princess came to Cining Palace to say hello, and between her words, she also had this meaning. said that Princess Chen was just doing superficial work, and she didn't really love King Chen much.

Of course, the crown princess wouldn't say it so obviously, but she just pretended to be puzzled, "It's also strange to say, how good is the medical skills of Doctor Ju in the third brother's mansion?" If there is anything wrong with the bodies of the third siblings, Mr. Ju will definitely be able to see it. Even if there was something wrong, it would have been cured a long time ago. Why are the three brothers and sisters receiving the grace of the special room, but their stomachs don't move at all. If the prince could be like the third brother treats the third brother and sister, sticking to his sons every day, the sons would have given birth to a big fat boy to the ancestors a long time ago! ”

The Queen Mother was originally suspicious, but after being reminded by these two people, she felt more and more strange. In addition, Mama Jin has not reported useful news for several months, and it is all good things in the palace, and it is all about the love of the prince and princess...... It's too good, but it seems a little fake.

The Queen Mother has been up and down in Weiyang Palace for a long time, what has she never seen? If you think about it, you can figure out what the problem is. Most likely, these two are making a show. One is to reassure the palace, and the other is that King Chen protects the princess.

If this is the case, it is really wise for the Queen Mother to use Xinlan's matter to remind the princess.
