Chapter 139: Exploring the Imperial Palace

Ling Zhiqiao waved his hand and said: "This Qiao Er doesn't dare to be, Doctor Taifu is in charge of the Pope's son, Qiao Er is only shallow in learning, but he can just talk nonsense, just now I deceived the maid in the mansion and said that Xiao Tao is the palace maid of the Qianhe Palace, and she will be the palace maid in the future, you said that if Your Majesty knows that I am nonsense, will you blame me?" ”

The Jade Emperor Concubine smiled and looked at Mama Chang, Mama Chang's wrinkled face was full of a kind smile, and she said to Ling Zhiqiao: "Miss Ling, don't say that when this little peach first entered the palace, it was really enlightened by the palace grandmother of the Qianhe Palace. ”

Ling Zhiqiao smiled proudly: "Yes! It seems that I am not wrong, so it proves that I am not nonsense. ”

The Jade Imperial Concubine spoke: "Since Xiao Tao is in line with Qiao'er's wishes, then you can stay by your side, and wait for the grandmother who is serving by your side to recover, and then let her go back to the palace." ”

Ling Zhiqiao raised her lips and smiled: "Then I will be reluctant to see it." ”

"You girl, you are so alive and well, it's better for you to enter the palace less these days, don't meet Queen Jiang again and cause that unnecessary trouble!"

Ling Zhiqiao was just about to say to reassure the Jade Imperial Concubine when she heard Jin Gui'er's voice say, "See Imperial Concubine Niangniang, Miss Ling." ”

Ling Zhiqiao said strangely: "Jin Gui'er, come in quickly, how do you know that I am here, I haven't had time to let Da Han and Er Han inform you!" ”

Jin Gui'er walked up to Ling Zhiqiao and said with a smile: "Miss Ling, didn't you say it last time, after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left, I will go to the Qianhe Palace, and didn't His Majesty the Emperor say it, as long as Miss Ling you enter the palace, the little slave must put down everything in his hands and accompany him." ”

"So after you enter the palace, the guards at the palace gate will send someone to inform the little slave."

"You're really thoughtful." Ling Zhiqiao praised with a smile.

Jin Gui'er hurriedly said: "This is ordered by His Royal Highness, and the little slave doesn't dare to steal the credit." ”

After hearing this, Ling Zhiqiao immediately felt a sense of happiness in her heart, and Mama Chang said to the Jade Imperial Concubine: "Niangniang, it seems that the Second Highness is indeed interested in Qiao'er, and when the Second Highness comes back, you have to hurry." ”

The Jade Imperial Concubine nodded and said to Ling Zhiqiao: "The emperor said, when he comes back, let His Majesty remove your candidate for the crown princess, and you will quickly settle the matter, okay?" ”

Ling Zhiqiao was eating the snacks on the table, she wiped her mouth and said, "Imperial Princess, this matter is not in a hurry, besides, we don't have important things to do." ”

She got up as she spoke, took another sip of tea and said, "Niangniang, Qiao Er has retired first, there are still many things to be done, and when His Royal Highness the Second Highness comes back, we will think about it in the long run, I can't waste the opportunity of His Royal Highness the Prince's absence." ”

The Jade Emperor Concubine motioned to Mama Chang to send Ling Zhiqiao, and she didn't forget to advise: "Just remember to be careful, if there is a threat, you must let Jin Gui'er or someone from the palace come to report the news, did you hear it?" ”

"Hear me! Imperial Princess, you also have to take care of your body, filial piety to your tonic pills on the table, remember to eat. ”

Only then did the Jade Imperial Concubine notice that at some point, Ling Zhiqiao placed a good-looking embroidered bag on the table, and when Mama Chang opened it, she smelled the smell of herbs and honey, which were full of pills wrapped in glutinous rice paper, and she said with a smile: "Niangniang, Miss Ling really has a heart." ”

The Jade Imperial Concubine also said approvingly: "She is always so considerate, if the emperor can really marry her, the palace will be relieved." ”

When Ling Zhiqiao and Jin Gui'er left the Jade Concubine Palace, they asked eagerly, "Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gone?" ”

"I set off early in the morning, the formation is huge, and the palace maids and eunuchs are all carrying a lot, and it seems that the itinerary is not going anywhere?"

Ling Zhiqiao said complacently: "Jin Gui'er, this girl now thinks that His Majesty the Emperor deliberately asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to send an envoy to the southern country, so that we won't have a chance, right?" ”

Jin Gui'er summed up and said: "Then or, we will go to the palace now, the little slave has inquired, Queen Jiang went to the Yuehua Hall today to pray for blessings, and she will not come here, there are also a lot of palace maids and eunuchs on the side of the palace, and the rest can also give the little slave a few thin noodles, you see?" ”

"What are you doing then? Let's go! Ling Zhiqiao was about to get on the sedan chair while urging.

Jin Gui'er hesitated for a moment and said, "But when His Royal Highness was leaving, didn't he say that Miss Ling should recuperate well during this time?" ”

Ling Zhiqiao turned around and stared at Jin Gui'er, and said with dissatisfaction in her tone: "You, little Jin Gui'er, but I, Ling Zhiqiao's person, understand, if you are really afraid that His Royal Highness will blame you, then I will go myself." ”

Jin Gui'er hurriedly explained: "Miss Ling, the little slave is following you wholeheartedly, isn't the Second Highness also kind, and the little slave is also afraid of delaying Miss Ling's injury, if there is a mistake, how can it be good?" ”

Ling Zhiqiao came to his lips, but was preempted by Da Han, and he said impatiently: "Little eunuch, why are you so verbose today, Immortal Sister Ling's medical skills are many times stronger than that imperial doctor, it will be fine, you just obey orders." ”

Ling Zhiqiao looked at Da Han strangely, recently she felt that Da Han's mind was a little enlightened, and the words she said became more and more organized.

She smiled and said, "Little father-in-law, little Jin Gui'er, let's go!" ”

On the way to the palace, Ling Zhiqiao listened to Jin Gui'er and Da Han fighting in a low voice, Jin Gui'er muttered to Da Han: "I'm not a little eunuch, you will call me that again in the future, be careful that I turn my face,"

Dahan was unconvinced: "You are still a little eunuch if you turn your face over, you are a little eunuch." ”

Ling Zhiqiao secretly looked out through the small window of the sedan chair, her Jin Gui'er's face was flushed with anger, and she didn't dare to fight hard with Da Han, the appearance of the wronged Barra made her laugh uncontrollably, Ling Zhiqiao said in the sedan chair: "Da Han, Jin Gui'er, you two learn from Erhan, talk less and do more things, or I will be angry, and Da Han is not allowed to call Jin Gui'er a little eunuch in the future, you have to hand over to Jin Gonggong, I understand." ”

The outside of the sedan chair suddenly fell silent, and then Jin Gui'er said to Da Han: "Miss Ling asked if you understand?" Why don't you talk back. ”

Da Han snorted angrily: "Didn't you let me talk less? I'm mute now! ”

Jin Gui'er smiled instead: "Daheita, remember to call me Gonggong Jin next time, this is what Miss Ling ordered." ”

When she arrived at the palace, Ling Zhiqiao got off the sedan chair, she looked at Erhan, who had been quiet, and saw that Erhan looked like she didn't dare to let go of a fart, Ling Zhiqiao asked hesitantly: "Erhan, why haven't you been talking, is it uncomfortable?" ”

"Miss Ling, I may have eaten too much just now, and I kind of want to go to the toilet." Erhan's face was almost green.

Xiao Tao and Da Han covered their mouths and stole fun on the side, Jin Gui'er hurriedly urged: "Then you should go quickly, you have followed so far, if you pull your pants, you must not stun Miss Ling." ”

Er Han pinched his legs and said to Ling Zhiqiao: "Second Highness said that no matter where you are on the road, you must be safe with Da Han at the same time in Miss Ling, since you have arrived at the Imperial Palace, then I will solve it." Talking about holding his stomach and trying to walk fast but not walking fast made the rest of the people laugh.

Ling Zhiqiao walked into the palace, and the guards saw that it was Jin Gui'er who accompanied the concubine of the general's mansion, and the alternative of the crown princess came, so they didn't dare to ask more, Jin Gui'er said to them: "Miss Ling has dropped something important here, my father-in-law came to help find it, I originally wanted to report to His Royal Highness the Prince, but I didn't have time, don't talk too much when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince comes back." As he spoke, each of them stuffed a silver bean into their hands.

Although the guards guarding the door are from the imperial palace, they usually have the favor of their little father-in-law Jin Gui'er, and they are happy to give personal favors, and their impression of Ling Zhiqiao is much stronger than that of the princess Xiao Qinxue, who is the princess who is being selected, although they pretend to shirk it, they still put away the silver beans.

A few people walked towards the inner hall, and Da Han began to get close to Jin Gui'er: "Small.. Father-in-law Kim. He originally wanted to call Jin Gui'er the little eunuch, but he really changed his mouth after turning a few corners, and Dahan continued: "You are quite capable. ”

Jin Gui'er glanced at him proudly and said, "What is this?" It is important to have a good relationship in ordinary times, otherwise when it comes to employing people, even a hundred silver beans will not work. ”

"This silver bean was also left for you by His Royal Highness the Second Highness?" Ling Zhiqiao stared at Jin Gui'er and asked.

Jin Gui'er grinned and said, "Miss Ling, you are smart, not to mention silver beans, even iron beans, you can't buy a few." ”

Ling Zhiqiao pointed at Jin Gui'er and said, "Second Highness really gave you a lot of explanations, what else did you say?" ”

"No, no more, His Royal Highness only let the little slave remember that Miss Ling's safety is the most important."

Ling Zhiqiao urged happily: "Don't be poor, hurry up and go in and have a look." ”

Under the leadership of Jin Gui'er, several people entered the inner palace where Ling Zhiqiao was punished last time, Jin Gui'er pointed to the right side of the place where Empress Jiang had sat and said: "Usually His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rests in the back there, reading and eating in front, I have basically seen everything in front of this, and I haven't found anything suspicious?" ”

Ling Zhiqiao nodded and said, "Da Han, you go to the front to guard, there are outsiders who must be loud, understand?" ”

Dahan had long forgotten about pretending to be dumb, and he immediately replied, "Don't worry! I'll shout when someone comes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not here, what do you mean by coming? What do you think? ”

Ling Zhiqiao smiled: "That's right. ”

Then she said to Xiao Tao: "You have been in the palace for a long time, look at the decorations in the prince's palace or whatever, do you think it is strange." ”

Xiao Tao is very well-behaved, she doesn't ask so much, and starts to look from place to place.

Ling Zhiqiao and Jin Gui'er entered the room where Du Yunfei was resting, and Ling Zhiqiao found that the place where Du Yunfei slept did not look like His Royal Highness the Crown Prince lived, and the layout was very plain, she asked Jin Gui'er, "The prince is sleeping here?" ”

Jin Gui'er replied: "Isn't it surprising that the little slave has only come in once." ”

Ling Zhiqiao nodded and motioned to Jin Gui'er: "You look for it from the other side of the bed, I'll look from this side, and finally we will check the bed."

Ling Zhiqiao looked at the right side of the room, the original owner's memory of Ling Ge Lao's mechanism patterns began to flash in her mind constantly, she didn't look at a single thing or furnishings and carefully recalled whether it matched these patterns, after all, the previous Jade Concubine Palace and the current Imperial Palace were not at all different, Ling Ge Lao's mechanism in the Jade Concubine Palace may be hidden in the room where Concubine Duyun slept.

Unconsciously, Ling Zhiqiao and Jin Gui'er had been looking for almost an hour, but they didn't find anything abnormal, Ling Zhiqiao and Jin Gui'er sat on the ground, she was puzzled and said, "Why didn't you find it, it's obviously in this position?" ”

Jin Gui'er was also tired enough and choked: "Could it be that I found the wrong room, or somewhere else in the palace?" ”

Ling Zhiqiao shook her head and said, "Impossible! At most, the exit is not in the right place, but it must be around here. ”

At this time, Xiao Tao's voice came from behind the screen and asked softly, "Miss, Grandpa Jin, I'm done." ”

Ling Zhiqiao said listlessly: "But what's abnormal?" ”

"It's a little abnormal, but I don't know if it's counted!" Xiao Tao replied.
