Chapter 226: Secret Investigation
Xiao Jinyue looked at the woman in front of her with curiosity, dressed in a dignified and decent palace dress, whether it was the color or style, it was decent, and the smile on her face was also the same dignified.
However, the skin on the face is white and red, and if you look closely at the end of the eyes, there will be a hint of faint style, and the makeup on the face is also decent, and there is nothing too brilliant on the whole.
At first glance, it gives people a feeling of sickness and weakness. However, according to Xiao Jinyue's observation, this woman is actually very beautiful, with delicate facial features, and there is actually a delicate body under the dignified palace dress.
If she washes off the makeup on her face and puts on a set of exquisite and luxurious palace clothes, she is actually a very unique and attractive woman.
Seeing Xiao Jinyue looking at herself curiously, the woman also smiled and looked at her for a while, and then turned her head sideways and asked Princess Jin on the side, "Princess, presumably this is the princess of the Zhenguo Mansion?" looks really good, this look is a collection of the advantages of you and King Jin. ”
Princess Jin was happy when she heard this, and stretched out her hand to pull Xiao Jinyue, "What is this kid doing standing stupidly, why don't you hurry up and see the courtesy." ”
Although Xiao Jinyue had already guessed the identity of this woman, she still asked Princess Jin with a smile, "Mother, this is ......?"
"This is the mother concubine of the fourth prince, Concubine Zhuang Xian."
Sure enough, I guessed correctly.
Xiao Jinyue smiled and saluted the other party.
Concubine Zhuang Xian didn't wait for her to finish her salute, she immediately reached out to help her, and praised her when she opened her mouth.
Princess Jin said a few words modestly, and also praised the four princes.
Xiao Jinyue pretended to be embarrassed, just smiled and listened to them praise each other's children, but in fact, she was quietly observing Concubine Zhuang Xian.
Xiao Jinyue found that although she looked a little weak and her face was a little pale, if you looked closely, you would find that it was actually dressed up with fat powder.
Concubine Zhuang Xian spoke softly, but her middle qi was not insufficient, and when she heard her mother's praise for the four princes, her face was full of smiles, and even her eyes were bright.
No matter how you look at it, Xiao Jinyue feels that she is not a long-term sick and weak person.
Concubine Zhuang Xian and Princess Jin praised each other's children, followed the gossip for a while, and then the two discussed the Queen Mother's birthday banquet.
Xiao Jinyue only listened silently most of the time, and only occasionally said a few words.
It wasn't until almost noon that Princess Jin took Xiao Jinyue back to the palace where they lived.
After the mother and daughter finished eating, Xiao Jinyue said that she wanted to say something considerate to Princess Jin, and asked the waiting palace maids and grandmothers to retreat.
"Yue'er, do you have something on your mind?" After Princess Jin found out that her daughter came back from Concubine Zhuang Xian's palace, she was a little distracted.
Xiao Jinyue put away her thoughts, changed her smile, took Princess Jin's arm and asked, "Mother, what is Concubine Zhuang Xian's name?" ”
Although Princess Jin didn't know how she asked Concubine Xian's name, she still told her truthfully, "Concubine Zhuang Xian's maiden name is Yajing. ”
Zhuang Yajing?
Xiao Jinyue frowned, how could it be?
"Mother, has Concubine Zhuang Xian changed her name?"
"I've never heard of that."
"So, does she have any nicknames?"
Princess Jin shook her head, "Nickname? The mother concubine was not familiar with Concubine Zhuang Xian when she was in the boudoir, so she had never heard of it. ”
I thought there would be a harvest, but who knew that the clue was interrupted again.
Did she guess wrong?
No, that voice was obviously the female voice she heard.
Xiao Jinyue carefully brushed through the conversation she heard that day, and suddenly paused, "Mother, do you know the emperor's name?" ”
"The emperor is your father's younger brother, and of course the concubine knows his name."
"Mother concubine say quickly, what is the emperor's name?"
"Zhao Dezhao"
Seeing her daughter frowning, Princess Jin patted her hand and said, "Do you still want to ask the emperor if he has changed his name?" ”
Hey, could it be that this time the peak is turning?
Xiao Jinyue's eyes lit up, "Mother said quickly." ”
"After the emperor ascended the throne, he did change his name once, and his name before ascending the throne was Zhao Junzhuo."
Princess?
It turned out to be Junzhuo!
Xiao Jinyue's mind flashed, remembering that day in the cave, when she heard the maid who came out of the banquet to look for her call her "county lord", she also heard the people in the rockery say at the same time, "Zhao Junzhuo ......"
Because both of them mentioned the county lord, the man's voice was not loud, and he happened to be covered by the county lord who was shouted by the maid.
At that time, Xiao Jinyue was bent on stopping Chi Yan who jumped into the spiritual spring water, and suddenly heard the maid outside the rockery shouting the county lord, and the man in the cave also talked about Zhao Junzhuo at the same time, thinking that the man said that Zhao Junzhuo was the county lord of Zhao.
Xiao Jinyue's heart tightened, and his face changed.
Although Princess Jin wondered why she kept inquiring about other people's names recently, worried that she had encountered something difficult, although she was a little sad that her daughter did not tell her what was on her mind. But then I thought about it, after all, it took so many years to find it, and my daughter is also older, so it's normal to have my own secrets.
"Although the mother concubine doesn't know what you are doing when you inquire about the emperor's name, but what you want to do, just let it go, as long as you don't do anything rebellious, or the sky falls, the mother concubine and your father will protect you thoroughly."
For this daughter who was finally found, Princess Jin didn't want to restrict her temperament, as long as she lived a healthy and worry-free life, no matter what she wanted to do, she would not object.
Anyway, with her and her husband's status, even if her daughter pierces the sky, she and her husband will protect her.
Countless thoughts flashed in Xiao Jinyue's heart at this time, she wanted to tell Princess Jin the secret in her heart, but thinking of their current situation, she swallowed back the words that came to her mouth.
If she said it, it would only make Princess Jin tremble, and if she was careless, it would be terrible if others saw the clues.
Xiao Jinyue raised a smile, changed the topic, and talked with Princess Jin for a while, and then excused herself to go back to her bedroom to rest for a while.
When she arrived in the inner room, she asked the servant to go down, hurriedly picked up the pen and ink, and wrote a note to Lu Chengting. Then he released Chi Yan, who was hiding in the space, and asked him to quietly bring the note to Lu Chengting.
In Shi'an Garden, Lu Chengting was coming back from a busy day, and just picked up the teacup, he found that Chiyan jumped in from the window.
Lu Chengting raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, beckoned to it, and asked it to come over.
Since this little guy went down the mountain, he often ran out to play, and it was common for him to disappear for a few days, which would make Xiao Jinyue not in the house, why did he suddenly run back.
Chi Yan jumped onto the tea table next to him and handed him the small note.
Lu Chengting was surprised when he saw the small note, so he took it and unfolded it, but there were only a few words on it.
Although he didn't make the payment, he recognized that it was Xiao Jinyue's character, and asked him to help secretly check whether Concubine Zhuang Xian had changed her name as quickly as possible.
Lu Chengting's face changed, and he immediately summoned the secret guard and ordered the task of the secret investigation.
An hour later, Xiao Jinyue got the letter that Chi Yan had brought back.
A quick look at it revealed that there were only a few words on the letter.
In fact, she had already guessed this result, but she didn't have the joy of guessing, but she was cold in her heart.
