Chapter 242: You have to endure being scolded
Lin Xiaoman understands that at the age of the Queen Mother, what she thinks most about is family and prosperity, no matter how angry the concubine is, she doesn't want to publicize the ugly things in the palace to the outside world.
And she's just a little county lord, the queen mother has spoken, what else can she say? You can only nod your head.
As for the fact that the Queen Mother said that she would enter the palace to speak a few days ago, I don't care if it is the Queen Mother's sincere words, or just say it casually.
The Queen Mother was very satisfied with this, and thought for a while: "I heard that Qingping is very good at growing melons and vegetables, I don't know how much you know about planting flowers and plants?" ”
When He was alive, he loved to play with flowers and plants, and Lin Xiaoman also learned some from her, but if he said fine, he would definitely not be as good as the gardeners in the palace, but when the Queen Mother asked about it, she couldn't say no, so she said: "I know a little bit about it." ”
I didn't want the Queen Mother to nod with satisfaction, got up and said, "Let's go, Qingping, you go with the mourning family to see the lotus raised by the mourning family." ”
Seeing that the Queen Mother was in a hurry, Lin Xiaoman could only follow.
A few days ago, when I visited Tongcheng with Meng Meng, I happened to meet the annual lotus exhibition, the lotus varieties on display are diverse, and there are various forms, Lin Xiaoman also took a lot of photos, but most of the introductions are new varieties cultivated in later generations, but I don't know what kind of lotus flower the queen mother planted.
Although there are also a lot of lotus flowers planted in the imperial garden, in Lin Xiaoman's opinion, the variety is single, which is too far from what is seen in the Tongcheng Lotus Exhibition.
As the excited Queen Mother came to the pond behind the Buddha Hall, she saw lotus flowers blooming among the lotus leaves.
How so? It's very good-looking, but it's a very ordinary lotus, and there are a few plants in the tank on the shore that look special, but they can't be compared with the lotus show of later generations.
Lin Xiaoman wanted to give the Queen Mother a vat of new varieties of lotus flowers to thank her for saving her today.
It's just that this can't be said yet, in case the Queen Mother is happy and asks her to go back to pick it up immediately, where can she go to get it? Let's wait until I buy it.
Lin Xiaoman praised the lotus flowers planted by the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother's eyes narrowed when she heard her smile, don't look at people in their seventies, there are not many wrinkles when they laugh, and they have a childish face.
The most important thing is that the Queen Mother looks kind and kind, and she doesn't look like someone who can have the last laugh in the harem.
After appreciating the lotus, Lin Xiaoman made a few specialty dishes for the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother's favorite food was pot wrapped meat, so Lin Xiaoman taught the method to the people in the small kitchen around the Queen Mother.
During the banquet, the Queen Mother talked a lot about the emperor and the legendary King Chen. Lin Xiaoman knew that although the brothers were thirty years old, they were not born to the Queen Mother, but one was supported by the Queen Mother, and the other was raised by the Queen Mother herself.
Especially King Chen, who was raised by the Queen Mother like a jewel.
Yes, after King Chen was forced to leave Beijing because of Xu Panxia, the queen mother didn't even like the queen, although she was dissatisfied with the concubine's flying in the palace in the past two years, she didn't support the queen, in fact, she was also angry that her niece forced the child she raised to leave.
Speaking of this, the Queen Mother sighed, "If you don't want to marry, you won't marry, why don't you leave Beijing?" Talk to the mourning family, the mourning family will never let him be wronged. ”
Speaking of this King Chen, the Queen Mother's words can't be stopped, from how smart and cute King Chen was when he was a child, all the way to how handsome and extraordinary he grew up, even the Prince Chen's mother was praised and praised by the Queen Mother, and it was completely impossible to see that when King Chen's mother was alive, he and the Queen Mother could be regarded as rivals in love.
It's just, what did the Queen Mother do with herself? She didn't recognize King Chen, and wanted to echo the Queen Mother to say a few words, but she didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, the Queen Mother may have seen Lin Xiaoman's embarrassment and asked her about some things in Qingping County, and Lin Xiaoman asked and answered.
Obviously, compared with planting grain and farming, the Queen Mother is more concerned about some affairs in Qingping County, especially when it comes to the county order Lu Jin and the people to get up early and work underground to farm and record the planting situation in the field, the Queen Mother always listens very carefully.
When she learned that Lu Jin had also been assassinated and almost lost her life, the Queen Mother frowned deeply, and her eyes were full of distress.
"It's not easy for this child, who would have thought that he could endure these hardships since he was raised by Jin Zun and Yugui."
Lin Xiaoman guessed that the Queen Mother should know Lu Jin, after all, she was a child who grew up in the capital, and it seems that she was also from a wealthy family, and the Queen Mother liked children, maybe she hugged him when she was a child, so it was not surprising that the Queen Mother would feel distressed when she heard that Lu Jin was still injured after living a hard life in Qingping County.
When leaving from the Queen Mother's Buddhist Hall, the sun was already setting in the west, and the Queen Mother also told Lin Xiaoman to enter the palace often to see her old man in the future.
Regardless of whether the Queen Mother is sincere or polite, Lin Xiaoman is flattered, and getting along with the Queen Mother is much easier than getting along with the Queen.
didn't know that at this time, the palace was almost lifted due to the disappearance of the county lord of Qingping.
Lu Jin was generally standing outside the imperial study, and the palace guards who were sent out to find people were under tremendous pressure when they came back.
The county lord of Qingping was deceived into the palace in the name of the queen, and the person was lost, who would have thought that the first person to be anxious would be this one?
Although they all know that the princes are fighting the idea of the county lord of Qingping, no one expected that this person would also come to get involved, and even look at this appearance, he has already put the county lord of Qingping into his own protection range?
A guard entered the door tremblingly, and was about to kneel down to return, but heard Lu Jin ask urgently: "Have you found someone?" ”
The guard shook his head, "Not ...... yet"
"Then why don't you look for it?"
Lu Jin's voice was hoarse, so frightened that the guards hurriedly ran out, swearing that he would not move forward next time he changed someone to go in.
The emperor was also depressed when he was blocked in the imperial study, regretting that he shouldn't have said such a joke that day, who knew that he was joking, his emperors really dared.
Although the whereabouts of the county lord of Qingping have not yet been found, among his good emperors, six of them have been found out who have already arranged for someone to attack the county lord of Qingping, so it is no wonder that he will be so angry that he will block the imperial study.
It's all at this time, what can the emperor do? Even if he is scolded, he has to endure it, who let him take care of it. I hope that when I scold, I can avoid some outsiders, and don't let him be too embarrassed to be the emperor.
Lu Jin strode in from outside, and the emperor just wanted to say that he should scold quietly, so he heard Lu Jin say: "Xiao Manruo has three long and two short ......."
The emperor immediately understood, "The concubine did such a wrong thing, I won't protect her this time,"
Lu Jin snorted coldly, staring at the imperial brother who had raised him since he was a child, like a brother and a father, and loved himself more than his own son, and didn't say anything more.
But just launching a concubine can't relieve the anger in his heart, the people involved in this matter, one counts as one, and no one wants to run.
Charged...... The traitors who happened to be arrested haven't been tried yet, so let's be guilty.
Just as he was thinking about it, the surprised and happy voices of the palace people came from outside, "Lord, the emperor, the county lord has found it." ”
