With Yun Yao here, Lu Yingquan doesn't have to worry about everything, just raise the fetus safely.

Sisi and Yun Yao packed up all the things they wanted to take away, and there were just two or three burdens left and right. The clothes of the three people were packed with a burden, the ice jade mat, the phoenix seal and the edict of the seal were specially packed with a burden, and the medicinal herbs for the fetus and other pills and powders were packed with a burden.

Four or five days later, about Shen Che's large army had already left the territory of Yiguo, and Gu Qingming appeared in Ci'en Temple again, picked up Lu Yingquan and the three of them, and left here.

When leaving, Lu Yingquan and Sisi changed into men's clothes, Yun Yao still wore women's clothes, and several people changed their faces and got into the carriage to Haoguo.

Yun Yao and their group's itinerary was confidential, and no one knew that Shen Che had other arrangements, and even Empress Dowager Jiang always thought that Lu Yingquan had thought about it in Ci'en Temple and raised the fetus by the way.

Because of this, along the way, they pretended to be rich boys who went out to play, with maids, servants and bodyguards, which was reasonable and did not attract anyone's attention.

When others saw it, at most they thought that this son's body was weaker, but they didn't think there was anything else wrong.

However, all of this was based on Lu Yingquan's belly for only three months, and it had not been completely highlighted, and it was covered by slightly wide men's clothes, and nothing could be seen at all.

This side is calm all the way, and no one knows each other, but Shen Che's side is the opposite, high-profile all the way, and tens of thousands of onlookers are watching.

The huge momentum of the sixteen carriages made the people feel very novel, after all, Daning has not been so lively for a long time, and the last time the whole world celebrated together, it was when Shen Ze married Rong Ya and held a post-sealing ceremony.

Under the fanatical gaze of all the people, Shen Che disguised himself as a second ancestor who liked to show off, as high-profile as he wanted, for fear that the Empress Dowager Qin would not notice his whereabouts.

Even Lu Yingquan and the others, who went to Haoguo, could occasionally hear Shen Che's news from passers-by, even if it was just a few words, they knew that Shen Che was fine now.

Jiang Yi cooperated unknowingly from the moment she left Yiwang Palace, she looked up at her head that she thought was noble, with the joy of victory on her face, and accepted the admiring and envious gaze of thousands of people.

And the behavior of Shen Che and Jiang Yi also reached the ears of the Empress Dowager Qin.

Jianzhang Palace is as quiet and solemn as ever, no one dares to speak loudly here, and no one dares to shout and frolic, the palace people walk quietly, for fear that they will be careless, provoke the Queen Mother to be unhappy, and then harm themselves.

The palace people felt that since the Queen Mother fell ill, this temper had become more and more moody, and many things could inexplicably provoke her, triggering a new round of bloody rain in Jianzhang Palace.

The only thing that hasn't changed is Aunt Jinxiu, who is still so quiet and calm, so calm, and still so deeply favored by the Queen Mother.

Jinxiu came in from outside, walked with her head down, and didn't know what was going on in her mind, until the voices of the two little palace ladies greeting her sounded, and she realized that she had walked to the door of the main hall of Jianzhang Palace.

Nodding slightly towards Xiao Gong'e, she walked in, came to the Queen Mother, and told all the news she had heard:

"Empress Dowager Qi, the people below have come to report that His Royal Highness King Yi and several other vassal kings are already on their way to Beijing, and they will arrive in the capital in a few days. His Royal Highness King Yi did not hide his whereabouts as the Queen Mother guessed, but acted with great fanfare and high-profile, and our people didn't need to inquire at all to know where His Royal Highness King Yi went. ”

Empress Dowager Qin's slightly vicissitudes of life flashed a slightly suspicious look, which seemed to be a little unpredictable.

And Jinxiu looked at the Empress Dowager Qin in front of her, and always felt that the corners of her eyes and eyebrows contained a tired look. Jinxiu, as a confidant around the Empress Dowager Qin, really watched the Empress Dowager Qin change day by day, since the Empress Dowager Qin took over the authority of the Daning court from the emperor, and put more effort into it, she became more and more exhausted.

"With great fanfare and high-profile action, this Shen Che is still smart in the end. Empress Dowager Qin sneered and said, "You tell you to go down, pay close attention to Shen Che's every move, and you can't let go of any clues." ”

"Yes, Queen Mother. Jinxiu nodded, knowing it.

"By the way, is there any new news from Yiguo's side recently?" The Queen Mother suddenly seemed to remember something and asked.

"Empress Dowager, no. Jinxiu replied, "The last time I wrote was more than a month ago, the little prince of Yiguo died young, Lu Yingquan fell out of favor and was driven to Ci'en Temple. ”

Lu Yingquan...... It doesn't seem to be going to be a climate. Empress Dowager Qin said, "Okay, you go down, report any situation in time, the mourning family is tired, you have to rest for a while." ”

After waiting for the Queen Mother to rest, Jinxiu left the main hall and went out.

Although Ninggong is located in the north, the weather in July has also begun to heat up, and the green trees outside are thick, with the breath of midsummer, so strong, but it makes people have a glimmer of hope in their hearts for no reason.

Jinxiu looked up at the sky and sighed faintly, always feeling that something had happened outside the control of the Queen Mother, and it was out of control.

For the fiftieth birthday of the Empress Dowager Qin, the Ning Palace began to get busy.

Rong Ya was still too young, and the Empress Dowager Qin didn't dare to let her organize the palace banquet, so she handed over this errand to Xu Meiren to be responsible. And this Xu Meiren is also the only concubine in the entire Ning Palace, except for Rong Ya, who has survived under the eyes of the Queen Mother for so long.

What's more, Jianyue beside Xu Meiren had befriended Yun Yao, and even Rong Ya felt a little kind of affection for Xu Meiren, the two were lonely and bored in the deep palace, and they often walked around each other.

The entire Ning Palace was filled with an atmosphere of joy, and of course, this joy was only for the unsuspecting palace people. But any palace people who are somewhat transparent will not feel that this birthday banquet is a happy event, because they can always see the turbulent waves of the dark tide through the calm surface.

For example, Aunt Suxin in the Bidding Palace, and Hong Xiao, who has always been greedy for money among the palace maids.

Hong Xiao was already a confidant by Aunt Su Xin's side, and I don't know if she was because of her seniority or because she had a personal relationship with Aunt Su Xin, and the third-class palace maids couldn't tell when, Hong Xiao slowly gained Aunt Su Xin's trust and gradually occupied a place in the Yeting Palace.

And what convinces everyone is that even if Hongxiao has the trust of Aunt Su Xin, she is still the same as before, what to do and what to do, the name of Bao inquiring is still enduring for a long time, and whoever wants to ask her for any news still has to give silver.

"In the past few days, my aunt has been looking at the direction of the palace gate, does she want to see the old man in her heart?" said a slightly cold voice behind Su Xin.

Su Xin turned around, but saw that Hong Xiao was carrying a watering can in his hand, and it seemed that he was going to water the flower garden in the Yeting Palace.

"That's all I have on my mind, and I still can't hide it from you. Su Xin smiled and spoke, the light and breezy appearance was the same as in the past.

"The third-class palace maids of the Yeting Palace come and go, the dead and the dead go, there are not many people left at the beginning, and there are even fewer people who can understand the relationship between my aunt and them, and I happen to be one of them. As she spoke, Hongxiao took a few steps closer, came to Su Xin's face, and spoke again, "I have news here, do you want to know what my aunt wants to know?"

"How much silver?" asked Su Xin subconsciously.

"If my aunt wants to know, she can do it without money. Hongxiao smiled lightly, "Over the years, others have thought that I have fallen into the eyes of money, but my aunt still doesn't understand? ”

"Yes, it's no wonder that you can survive the deceit of the Ting Palace, if you have the heart, it's not impossible to go to the Inner Palace. Su Xin said with a sigh.

Hearing this, Hongxiao also knew that Su Xin had already seen her through, just as she had seen through Su Xin. This is also a tacit secret between the two of them. They don't have any bad intentions, they just want to live well in this palace, and their interests do not conflict, so naturally there is no need to fight.

Thinking of this, Hong Xiao opened his mouth and said: "I just inquired about the news from Jianzhang Palace, His Royal Highness King Yi entered Beijing this time, and he brought Mrs. Jiang, the niece of Empress Dowager Jiang, not them. I told you earlier that Lu Yingquan was the sole monarch in Yiguo, and it was more than a month ago. ”

"Why?" asked Su Xin, surprised.

"Because it is said that the little prince who was born for just one month of His Royal Highness King Yi died in the hands of Lu Yingquan. In order to calm his anger and give an explanation to the Empress Dowager Jiang, His Royal Highness drove Lu Yingquan and Yun Yao to the Ci'en Temple to think about it and confess to the Buddha. "So this time, you won't be able to see them." ”

Su Xin listened to Hongxiao's words, and she didn't know what it was like.

She knew very well that Hongxiao's news would never be wrong, and Lu Yingquan and Yun Yao should have really been driven to the Temple of Mercy and Grace. But Su Xin understands even more that with Yun Yao's ability, as long as his life is still there, even if he is kicked out, there is still a chance to turn over.

"Thank you for telling me this, you can get busy. Su Xin figured out something, and his heart settled down, "The Queen Mother's birthday is coming, and we must also make sure that we don't make mistakes." Although we won't see them this time, I'm sure we'll see them again one day. ”

Hongxiao didn't say anything more, only said goodbye to Su Xin's slight blessing, and then walked towards the flower garden with a watering can.

Su Xin didn't continue to stand, but returned to the room, bowed a few times to the Bodhisattva on the table, and put on a few pillars of incense, and then sighed and sat down, not knowing what he was thinking.

At the beginning, Su Xin also thought that Yun Yao was dead, and Lu Yingquan was going to become the queen mother's delicate work and was sent to the feudal country. She lamented the fate of these two girls for a while, but later, Hongxiao told her that Yun Yao did not die, but went to Yiguo with Lu Yingquan, and helped Lu Yingquan get the favor of His Royal Highness King Yi, and gained a firm foothold in Yiguo.

From that day on, she set up this incense case, offered the Bodhisattva, and burned incense three times every morning and evening, burned incense and prayed for Yun Yao and Lu Yingquan, and asked the Bodhisattva to bless them with all the best in Yiguo.

And not long ago, when she heard from Hong Xiao's mouth that Lu Yingquan dominated the monarch's favor and was likely to follow His Royal Highness King Yi into Beijing to celebrate his birthday, she had a hope in her heart, but who would have thought that the sky would not fulfill people's wishes, this time she would not see it after all.
