However, I wondered even more: "How can I live in such an important place?" ”

Ah Ping replied: "I went to the imperial grandfather to get permission, no one has stayed here since the death of the imperial grandmother, after thirteen years, the imperial grandfather was afraid of seeing things and thinking about people and never came here, only regularly asked people to clean." [In this way, even if the mother concubine comes in person, she will not dare to do anything to you anymore.] ”

Indeed, since Zhu Yuanzhang is accurate, then I have the emperor's care, and Concubine Lu doesn't like it anymore, I don't dare to act rashly, otherwise she will resist the emperor's order, and she will also gamble with her future and her son's future. Because of me, the price is too great, not to mention ...... "Have you quarreled with your mother?" I was skeptical, but my tone was affirmative.

Ah Ping didn't hide it from me: "I went to her dormitory and made a fuss a few times, asking her to hand over the people." ”

I was stunned, "Who do you want to for?" ”

"Liu Qing! If she hadn't fanned the flames next to her mother, why would it have developed into today's situation? From the first time you went to see your mother when you entered the palace, you took a sachet to harm you, but I stopped you but intensified, secretly summoned you to the past without telling me, and put eyeliner in my dormitory, I have to settle all this matter. ”

After a moment of silence, he spit out the facts: "But she is your nurse." ”

"Yes, she is my nursing mother, I have always respected her, and I only took her with me when I went to Ginkgo Village, but she didn't know how to be generous, and she always looked down on you. It's all tolerable, but I can't tolerate her encouraging her to persecute you in such a way. ”

Ah Ping said that his eyes turned back to me, and there was an indescribable emotion in his eyes, and he stared at me for a long time before he said slowly: "When I came back that day, I saw you lying on the ground lifeless, and your whole body was weak, and you could barely move your feet. Later, you have been unconscious, even if Old Man Jiang has repeatedly assured me that you have been removed from the medicinal properties in your body and will wake up soon, I am still afraid that you will fall asleep all the time. At that time, I really hated, if she wasn't my mother, I wouldn't let it go, and I hated myself, how careless I didn't even press a trusted person by your side, leaving you alone on the ground. ”

At that time, as long as I recall that scene, there will still be a dull pain in my heart. It's true that it will be quite helpless, and the person I want to see the most is him, but he was still at Zhu Yuanzhang's place at the time, leaving me alone and falling to the ground unconscious.

So the trauma is actually cumulative, and one point at a time adds up to condense into a fire and explode. I know that Ah Ping is confessing to me in another way of elaboration, and he is not so hard-hearted that he is unmoved, maybe the more he cares, the more difficult it is to soothe.

I changed the subject: "Did you do anything to Liu Qing later?" ”

"The emperor's grandfather came forward and punished her to go to the cloth store for a month. Lan, am I useless? ”

understands what he means, obviously Zhu Yuanzhang's punishment is light for Liu Qing, and because it was his imperial grandfather who came forward, he can only admit it even if he is unwilling. But in fact, in my opinion, Zhu Yuanzhang is to give him and his mother a step down, Liu Qing is his nurse after all, and she is an important person around Concubine Lu, if she keeps making trouble, their mother and son will tear their faces.

If that's the case, that's not what I want to see.

But it can also be seen that the smartest and most powerful person here is the grandfather of Emperor Apingna, who has pressed down the contradiction by throwing thousands of pounds in four or two. Ah Ping still has to learn more from his grandfather, and he is too frizzy and aggressive in dealing with things, which seems to be for me, but it also tests his interpersonal skills. There is always a way to do it more effectively and effectively than to argue.

I want to open my mouth to warn, because in the future, when he becomes the emperor, the interpersonal relationships between the Manchu dynasty and even the implication with the harem need to be considered by him from all aspects. But when the words came to his mouth, he still swallowed back, and hoped that he could withdraw from the competition for the throne, so it was better not to learn these sophisticated and sleek things, just keep his heart and be himself.

After talking that day, Ah Ping openly moved his belongings to Orchid Garden, and I turned a blind eye and pretended not to see it. After the stove was revised, I began to tidy up the yard, sorted the flower pots and moved them to the corner, slowly reclaimed the soil and sprinkled the vegetable seeds. According to Ah Ping, the reason why this place was called Orchid Garden in the past was because Queen Ma liked orchids, and she planted and cultivated them herself, and it was very beautiful when she was alive. He also said that I have a blue character in my name, which is very in line with the temperament of Orchid Garden.

I'm too lazy to complain about him, if there is Lan in his name, it is related to Lan Yuan, so I'm afraid there must be a lot of palace ladies in the palace who have this temperament.

Green Lotus is indeed still young, just turned fourteen, although people are a little wooden, but expensive in diligence, everything is rushed to do, for fear that I will have a mistake. Later, I was educated, and I finally stopped being so surprised.

In the afternoon of this day, I was transplanting the vegetable seedlings that had grown in the yard, when I suddenly heard the green lotus pop and knelt on the ground, shouting in a trembling voice: "See the emperor." I turned my head in amazement, the afternoon sun was just right, and I was squatting in the vegetable patch with my hands covered with mud, only to see the mighty figure standing not far away, because of the backlight and need to squint to see clearly, so I reacted slowly.

Remembering that his squatting posture was not very elegant, he quickly got up, hesitated for a moment and spoke: "I've seen the emperor's grandfather." ”

Last time, he asked me to change my words, which was kind of a recognition of my identity, but then I never saw him again and couldn't arouse it. I glanced at the green lotus who was still trembling underground, and commanded helplessly: "Green lotus, don't go and serve tea quickly." ”

After getting my order, Lu He got up tremblingly and ran into the house, fortunately, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care much about the fear of a palace maid, pointed to the vegetable seedlings on the ground and asked me: "What are you planting?" ”

"There are kinds of melons, fruits and vegetables, melons and fruits are planted with vegetable melons and watermelons, and vegetables are planted with tomato seedlings and green vegetables and radishes."

He looked puzzled: "Can you grow so many things in such a small place?" ”

"I don't ask for buying and selling, I plant some of everything, and after the current season, I change the plants of the next season, so that the vegetables and fruits are fresh."

"Oh? When will the harvest be? ”

"It takes at least three months for watermelon seedlings to grow into a harvest, and the same is true for tomatoes, most of the vegetable seedlings are in March, but as long as the greens are cultivated, they can be eaten as chicken hair vegetables when they are very young, very tender and delicious, and when they are big, they are big greens, and if they are frosted in winter, they will become very sweet."

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at me, and although he was still full of intimidation after several contacts, I gradually became less afraid of him, especially after learning from Ah Ping that I could live here with his permission.

In fact, he didn't like me either, maybe it wasn't that he didn't deserve it in the eyes of a woman, because he was also from a common people, and he was born from a bitter background, so he shouldn't look at me with a snobbish eye. I don't like it because I feel that my presence is enough to influence and influence Ah Ping, so I have tried to separate us several times. But he will not come to cheat in secret, and he is willing to gamble and lose.

This may be an emperor's tolerance for his grandson...... While meditating, I suddenly heard him say: "I thought that after you entered the palace, you would be confused by the extravagant life and not be able to live the hard life before, but now it seems that I was wrong." ”

Oh? That's what he originally had in mind? Do you want to use this to knock on me, and at the same time let Ah Ping see clearly? I couldn't help laughing, although this old man was an emperor, he sometimes acted as innocent as a child.

Lu He came out of the house, stood very far away and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, the tea has been served." ”

So we moved into the house, and after Zhu Yuanzhang sat down, he raised his eyelids slightly and said lightly: "You can sit too." "I sat down without excuses, and now I am two months pregnant, and although I am not yet pregnant, I feel tired every day, so I can only plant intermittently in the yard, which is why I have only set aside half of the yard for the time being.

I didn't let the green lotus wait, and after sending her down, I took the initiative to reach out and pick up the teapot and pour tea into the cup. This tea was just brought back by Ah Ping two days ago, saying that it was a new tea that had just been picked, and he had been drinking it for the past few days.

"Do you know why I let Ping'er play and let you live here?"

Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's sudden question, my hand pouring tea paused slightly, this question was not without deep thought, and when he asked, he said his previous guess: "Is it because I am also surnamed Ma?" ”

Seeing that he was stunned for a moment, he said, "You are smart, and this is indeed one of the reasons." Originally, Ping'er chose this family business, and the people below took a large stack of information about the young lady of the right age to show me, and after many screenings, I chose your father's lineage. Saying that, he sighed softly, and there were many vicissitudes in his voice: "It has been thirteen years since anyone dared to mention this surname in front of me, and I have always buried it deep in my heart and did not want to think about it, but the night I first saw you that day, I dreamed of her in a dream. ”

I was taken aback, he meant that the night he suddenly came to Ginkgo Village? He dreamed of his first wife, Queen Ma?

"You know what? Since she left me, I have been expecting her to dream for countless nights, but never before. It wasn't until thirteen years later that I dreamed of her in that ginkgo village. In the dream, she looked exactly the same as back then, and the eyes that looked at me were gentle and charitable. I don't want to admit it, but the few times I see you afterwards always reminds me of her. ”

knows that Zhu Yuanzhang actually wants to find someone to talk to, and when he is in his position, there are actually not many people who can find someone to talk to, not to mention that he has to tighten the emperor's face in front of everyone. I don't know why he told me this, because of this orchid garden that had been buried for thirteen years, or because of the ......, "I am like Queen Ma?" ”
