A green shed oilcloth carriage drove into Andingfang and stopped at the house of King Qianhu of Jinyi Wei, and a woman in a cloak got out of the carriage and knocked on the door. [No pop-ups. 】

"Who?" The porter came to ask.

"Rong and the girl are back." Xi Tao said.

The porter looked at her suspiciously, "Who are you?" Our eldest girl went to the palace to serve and choose, how did she come back? ”

Xi Tao leaned over, and the curtain of the carriage was lifted, "Uncle Gui, it's me." ”

"Big girl." Uncle Gui hurriedly stepped forward, "Why did the girl come back?" He asked the coachman to follow him in, and he couldn't get out of the carriage until the girl from Ermen.

The coachman didn't move, and Wang Ronghe said, "The carriage will return to the palace soon, uncle, my legs are not easy to walk, you go and call a strong woman to carry me." ”

The porter was very puzzled and shaken, but he didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly went back to call someone, and the nurse and the woman said at about the same time, "Girl." The nurse looked at Wang Ronghe's legs stiffening involuntarily, and her eyes turned red with worry, "Nurse." Wang Ronghe said helplessly, Xitao helped Wang Ronghe to lie on the woman's back, "Go in and talk about it." ”

"Yes, yes, let's go inside." The nurse held Wang Ronghe's back to protect her, and carefully went all the way to her grandmother's yard, the old lady had already heard the news, waited at the door, and saw that Wang Ronghe came in on her back, "My Bao'er, what's wrong with you?" ”

Cui's hurriedly came over, and the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law were also shocked when they heard that the eldest girl was back, and the eldest daughter-in-law hurriedly asked the little girl to hurry up and inform the old man and the young master that the eldest girl was back.

"Grandmother." Wang Ronghe looked at his grandmother's crying and worried face and said, "It's not very serious, I'm not lame, it's just that I don't look good when I limp in." ”

After Xi Tao helped put Wang Ronghe on the couch, she stood quietly behind her, and her grandmother took Wang Ronghe's hand and asked, "This is?" ”

"This is the palace maid I am waiting for in Chuxiu Palace, Xi Tao. Because the order to leave the palace came suddenly, and I was not good at it, she asked me to send me out of the palace. Wang Ronghe said.

"Good girl." When the grandmother heard this, she took Xi Tao's hand, "Good girl, I'm too lazy to be righteous, I really don't know how to thank you." ”

"The old lady is serious, the girl in Chuxiu Palace treats me very well, and she doesn't dislike me." Xi Tao said.

Cui's broke in, "Why are you back?" What about Zhixi? ”

"Zhixi has been canonized as Wang Meiren and stayed in the palace." Wang Ronghe said.

"Then why did you get back?" Cui asked.

"I angered Your Majesty, so I was kicked out of the palace." Wang Ronghe said apologetically to his grandmother, "Grandmother, I have disgraced you. Originally, she just finished breakfast as usual, but the Shanggong Bureau suddenly said that she could leave the palace, pack up her things and leave, and the carriage was waiting outside the Shenwu Gate.

Wang Ronghe has always wanted to get out of the palace, but he can really get out of the palace but he is in a trance, so he can go home? She didn't wonder why she was leaving the palace, if Her Majesty had to be more serious about what she did, he could have sent her out of the palace a long time ago. So Wang Ronghe was only in a trance for a while and immediately prepared to pack up her things, she didn't have anything, and she called Yang Jingru and Liu Jing for the clothes and jewelry that had not yet been put on, "I haven't put on my body, although it's not a good thing, it's a thought to leave it to you." ”

"Sister. Why so suddenly. Yang Jingru couldn't believe it.

"Shhhh Wang Ronghe said. "It's just that I didn't expect our sisters' fate to be so shallow, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to see each other again in the future. You're all going to be fine. ”

Wang Ronghe's knee has not completely disappeared, and it is not convenient to move. Xi Tao went to ask Shang Gong, "The girl is still not good at doing it, and the slave maid serves the girl for a while, so she begs the aunt to fulfill our master and servant, and let the slave and maid send the girl out of the palace and go home." ”

Shang Gong agreed.

Xi Tao held back her tears to pack Wang Ronghe's luggage, and then spent money to invite a sturdy eunuch to carry the girl to Shenwu Gate, and when she got to the carriage, Wang Rong and Cai took Xi Tao's hand and said, "Tell me where your family is, and I will take care of it in the future." There's not much I can do for you, I told Jingru, wait for her canonization and let her ask you to go to her palace, she is a gentle and fair person, you won't suffer if you go to her. ”

Xi Tao couldn't cry silently, and she didn't quickly wipe away her tears until the carriage entered Andingfang, and she wanted to send the girl back safely.

"Don't be ashamed, you can come back Grandmother is like a dream, it's like burning high incense. The heavenly family is rich, we can't deserve it, so we will find an honest and responsible person to marry, with your father and brother behind you, no one dares to underestimate you. The old lady said.

"You are so bold, how dare you provoke Your Majesty? So if you come back like this, will it hurt your family? Cui asked anxiously.

"Mother, rest assured, Your Majesty is not such a stingy person." Wang Ronghe said.

"So when you choose the inner servant shàng mén, just let Zhixi go up, if you have to enter the palace too, I don't know how much silver you stuffed, and you come back so gray, and you have to worry about whether it will affect the family." Cui Shi said coldly that she always thought that Wang Ronghe entered the palace because she had to go, and stuffed silver for the selection of eunuchs, after all, she had never even seen Wang Ronghe's face when she first selected the eunuchs.

"Get the hell out of here." The old lady yelled angrily at Cui.

"Mother, I'm telling the truth, she was punished in the palace and went home, shouldn't she worry about whether it will affect the family?" Cui said. "Besides, her future marriage is also a big problem."

"Get the hell out of here." The old lady said, "Madder, get me out." ”

The old lady's maid came to persuade Cui to leave first, Cui went out of the old lady's courtyard gate, met the two daughters-in-law who came over, and said with a straight face, "What are you doing in a hurry?" The eldest girl is no one now, I really don't know if it is a glorious thing to be punished in the palace and be kicked out of the palace."

"What are you doing? Take care of the house. Cui said.

Zeng glanced at his brother and daughter-in-law, and she followed Cui and asked Sun to go to his grandmother's yard to watch.

The old lady asked Wang Ronghe what was injured when he was punished, Wang Ronghe couldn't get past it, so he could only pull up his trouser leg to show his grandmother her dark green knees, the old lady looked at her knees, and tears flowed, "Grandmother brought you to such a big age, and the oily skin was not willing to let you shave a little, and she didn't enter the palace for a month, so she knelt down like this, and my grandmother was distressed." ”

"It was my granddaughter who made a mistake recklessly." Wang Ronghe said that the grievances in his heart were also hooked, and after entering the palace for a month, he was worried and afraid to think about it, so he simply hugged his grandmother and cried bitterly, and the grandfather and grandson hugged their heads and cried, unspeakably sad.

Zhu Yijun said that he wanted Wang Ronghe to go home to get married, and Empress Dowager Li frowned and said, "This is not in accordance with the rules." "Because of the rule that Taizu Lide has to come from the cold door in the draft, the queen's background is too bad, and the small family can't afford the scale of the queen's going out, so they are all married from Chuxiu Palace, and the dowry is also from His Majesty's Inner Treasury, which is undertaken by the Ministry of Rites and the Monk Palace Bureau.

"The good days given by Qin Tianjian are in the second half of the year, and the earliest day is the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15, and the queen stays in the harem for so long before her wedding? I'm afraid it's not good to be married to the queen before the big wedding. ”

"Why is the day of Qin Tian's election so late?" Empress Dowager Chen said.

"The queen's house is in Beijing, and there are also separate courtyards, the queen just goes back to her parents' house to prepare for marriage, and returns to the palace three days before the wedding, and she still marries from Chuxiu Palace, which does not violate the ancestral system." Zhu Yijun said. He didn't go to see Wang Ronghe, but he would ask Zhang Cheng every day, Zhang Cheng said that Wang Ronghe was in a miserable and miserable state, Zhu Yijun couldn't bear it, so he thought that she should be very happy to go back to her parents' house for a few months.

In Zhu Yijun's heart, it is not compensation to set up Wang Rong and the queen, but to let her go back to her home to prepare for marriage.

After the will, people are the first to leave the palace, Zhu Yijun asked Zhang Cheng, "She just left the palace like this?" Didn't say anything? ”

Zhang Cheng was actually a little embarrassed, he had two things in his hands, one was a white round porcelain vase engraved with the imperial system in exchange for an object by His Majesty, and the other was the pavilion golden hairpin that His Majesty rewarded Wang Ronghe. "What does she mean by leaving these two things to me?"

Zhang Cheng is not easy to say, it can't be said that these two things are not good for girls to take out of the palace.

"What about the erhu?" Zhu Yijun asked.

"The erhu of the Jiaofang Division was left, but the one that His Majesty sent later, the girl brought it back." Zhang Cheng said, "The will is not given, the girl thinks that she is out of the palace when she leaves the palace." ”

"Then she can't wait to be happy, right?" Zhu Yijun said with sour eyes at the corners of his eyes.

"I can't see that I'm happy." Zhang Cheng said, "The little one has never seen the girl's expression, and I don't know how to describe it." ”

"And let her go home and cry for a while. Slow down, my will. Zhu Yijun said. You will go to Cining Palace and ask the Queen Mother if the grades of the other show girls have been booked? "It's better to make the decree early, in case her family is short-sighted, what if she comes home and says something unpleasant or hastily marries her. She must be uneven, in case of a white silk.

Zhu Yijun shook his head and said to Zhang Cheng, "The holy decree will come to the Wang family today at the latest." ”

Zhou Yuting's disposal has not come down, Wang Ronghe left the palace first, the show girls were all dazed by such a change, Wang Zhixi asked people to inquire, but they couldn't inquire about anything.

Fang Ruo thought, she was really in a hurry to get out of the palace, she wouldn't let Xi Tao send her, Xi Tao was a palace maid, Wang Ronghe would not be a show girl if she left the palace, could she still use a palace maid? It was sent, sent to the top of Shenwu Gate, and sent to home.

Fang Ruo boldly guessed that Wang Rong and leaving the palace were not a bad thing.

When Wang Wei was on duty, he heard that the eldest girl was going home, his heart jumped, and he hurriedly went home with a notice from his colleagues, and went to his mother's courtyard, where his mother wiped her tears with a handkerchief, but she didn't see Wang Ronghe.

"Mother, where's Bao'er?"

"I was tired of crying and fell asleep." The old lady said, "Poor my Bao'er, her knees are blue and black, how can she cry so sadly, she must have suffered a lot of grievances in the palace." ”

"Then she didn't say anything about leaving the palace?" Wang Wei asked.

"It was said that he angered His Majesty and was kicked out of the palace." The old lady said, "It's good to come back, the palace is a place to eat people, you can choose a family for her, don't marry far away." ”

"That's fine." Wang Wei said, "What about the two girls? ”

"The second girl heard that she was named a beauty." The old lady said, "You go back and talk to Cui's family, Bao'er has come home, before she gets married, she is the eldest girl of our family, if there is any neglect, or I hear any rumors, I just look for her." ”

"Okay, I'll do it." Wang Wei said, "Mother, enlighten Bao'er more, don't let her think nonsense." ”

The show girl Zhou Yuting, who was evil and domineering in Chuxiu Palace, deceived her superiors and subordinates, and ordered her to enter the Huanyi Bureau, and worked hard for three years, and was not allowed to move and be promoted.

Show girl Sun Baijin, Qin Qing'er attached herself to Zhou Yuting to do evil, conspired to be punished, ordered to be demoted to a palace maid, and blamed the palace bureau for strict discipline.

Chu Xiu Palace's palace maids perilla, ginger, orchid branches, and Fang Ruo were not on duty, so they were sent to the Huanyi Bureau for hard labor.

Concubine Guo has served His Majesty meritorious, and Concubine Guo has been promoted.
