Chapter 883: Dependent on each other
Jiang Shuhua seemed to be amused by her appearance, "You girl, why are you so funny, what can I ask you to do, I just want you to stay by my side all the time, others don't know, can you still not know?"
In such a deep palace, how difficult it is to get a right-hand man that you fully trust.
You came late, I didn't know, I used to have a good maid by my side, my adoptive mother gave it to me, called Xizhu, it's really good, think about me everywhere, I am really grateful to her not to say it, but I hope that we can always support each other in this palace.
After all, His Royal Highness is unreliable, the relatives at home have not been seen for many years, and the so-called family affection is a little bit, and the most important thing is the people around him, don't you say?"
When she spoke, her voice was very soft and soft, with a bit of helpless gloom.
Mingyue raised her head slightly, and saw that her gaze was falling on a certain place in the back window, and her expression was very sad.
Jiang Shuhua continued: "It's just that I didn't expect that we would dodge so many open guns and hidden arrows in the palace, and as a result, she would abandon me for her cousin."
Jiang Shuhua shook her head lightly as she spoke, "This man, where did you come from, it's just to see if you have any use value.
Xizhu followed me, it can be regarded as an infinite scenery, her cousin is naturally very good to her, and every letter is full of sweet words.
But when she finally mustered up the courage to leave me alone in this palace, how much affection did the so-called cousin have?
I sent someone out some time ago to inquire about her situation, and I didn't even know that there was any news of her, and I heard that his cousin had taken her away, of course, not only with her, but also the two concubines and a pair of children that his cousin had married before."
Mingyue opened her mouth slightly, obviously not expecting to hear such news.
For Xizhu, she naturally knows.
can serve by Jiang Shuhua's side, how can you not do your homework.
Then Jiang Shuhua's most powerful maid before is naturally the object of her investigation.
She just heard that Xizhu wanted to leave the palace by herself, but Jiang Shuhua refused, and the two of them finally had a fight, and finally let Xizhu go.
It's just that I didn't expect Xizhu to be so miserable after leaving.
Mingyue couldn't help but think of herself in her heart.
Originally, she had a firm attitude towards leaving the palace at the age of twenty-five and living with her family.
But Jiang Shuhua's words earlier made her involuntarily plant a little seed of doubt in her heart.
Now that she heard Xizhu's fate, she inevitably substituted herself into it.
Jiang Shuhua could see the swaying in her heart at a glance, and said with a smile, "So! Mingyue, now the two of us are the closest people."
Mingyue timidly raised her eyes to look at her.
Then I heard Jiang Shuhua's voice again, "Do you remember that Xue Ge Lao?"
Although Mingyue has been with Jiang Shuhua for a while, this is really too short for the long years in the palace.
She could probably figure out the relationship between these people in the East Palace, and figure out the families behind each of them.
But what Jiang Shuhua said about the former officials, she wants to know everything about the officials, but it is still too difficult.
Fortunately, Jiang Shuhua didn't need her to understand everything, she just smiled and said, "It's okay not to know, but what I can tell you is that this Xue Ge Lao has a cousin, and his official position is not high, but he is just an idle official of the sixth grade, but do you know who his wife is?"
This made Mingyue's eyes darken, and in front of the master, she didn't dare to lie, so she had to shake her head.
Jiang Shuhua smiled and said, "His wife's name is Cherry."
Seeing Mingyue's doubts, she continued to explain, "It's the aunt in charge of the palace who turned out to be Queen Zhao."
"Huh?"
Mingyue was obviously surprised, and this accident was not faked.
Jiang Shu
Hua was very satisfied with her surprise, "She was a celebrity in front of Empress Zhao, and Empress Zhao was favored at that time, but it was during a hunt that Cherry got acquainted with Lord Xue, who had just entered the officialdom at that time.
Then Empress Zhao made the decision and gave the cherry to that Lord Xue, don't you think it's a little incredible?"
Mingyue nodded subconsciously.
Jiang Shuhua said as a matter of course: "Even if he is serving people, he is also serving people in front of the queen's mother, how can he be the same as others?
Not to mention that other people think that it is a match made in heaven, even Your Majesty, they also think that this arrangement is very good, and the Xue family does not have the slightest grievance.
It is said that after the palace maid named Cherry married into the Xue family, she was very liked by her mother-in-law, and she gave birth to three sons later.
Speaking of which, where can Mingyue not understand what Jiang Shuhua means?
She hurriedly knelt down, and then kowtowed to Jiang Shuhua a few times, "The slave and maid follow the master wholeheartedly, I just hope that the master can come true and sit in that seat."
Jiang Shuhua took out a porcelain vase from his sleeve at this time, "Mingyue, you are the person I trust the most besides Xizhu!"
It's just that there is no way, you came later than Xizhu, and I was also bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope, this ...... And I will give it to you."
Mingyue raised her head in horror, looking at the porcelain bottle between Jiang Shuhua's slender fingers, her face suddenly changed, where did she dare to reach out and take it.
Jiang Shuhua smiled and said, "Look at you, why are you afraid of becoming like this? Since I have said that I trust you, and I plan to take you with me in everything in the future, how can I harm you? It's not a bloody poison here."
Mingyue couldn't help but swallow her saliva, and tried to reach out several times but failed.
The smile on Jiang Shuhua's face became brighter and brighter, "You! Look at you, you really don't have to be afraid! I'm not lying to you about the stuff here, it's poison good.
But it won't kill people, to be precise, as long as you obediently listen to me, you won't die, this medicine! I specially found someone to match, and after you eat it, as long as you come to me every month to get the antidote, there will be nothing wrong with it, and I can promise you this."
Speaking of which, what else does Mingyue not understand?
If she is disobedient, or if she has done something wrong, then there is no antidote?
She finally became afraid, "Master, slave and maid...... From this day on, the slave and the maid will not go anywhere, but will only be by your side, and the master will let the slave and the maid do whatever they want, and the slave and the maid will do whatever they want, and they will not dare to be the slightest bit lazy."
Jiang Shuhua smiled and nodded lightly, then bent down, gently stroked her cheek, and praised: "Sure enough, it's the person I like, I like it very much."
Hearing this, Mingyue looked at her cautiously, with a begging meaning in her eyes.
However, Jiang Shuhua handed the medicine forward again, "Since you are so loyal, what else is there to be afraid of with this medicine? It can't hurt you! Don't you say?"
Although she had a smile on her face, her eyes looked at Mingyue as if they were quenched with ice, and the chill there made Mingyue shiver subconsciously.
"Yes!"
Speaking of which, Mingyue also understands that she can't hide today.
Whether it's really voluntary or not, the medicine will fall into her stomach.
As for whether this medicine will kill her in the future, she doesn't know, and she can't think about it, because such a thing, as long as she thinks about it, is painful.
Seeing that she really swallowed the medicine obediently, the smile on Jiang Shuhua's face finally became sincere.
"Really good, from now on, we will depend on each other."
