Chapter 122: The Empress Summons

Du Jingyi nodded gratefully and hurriedly, as if Shang Ji was some kind of plague god, and wanted to invite him out immediately.

Shang Ji also saw the meaning in her eyes, so he reached out and touched her hair, and then chuckled before leaving.

When I left, I saw the maid cherry burying her head deeply, her eyes staring at the tips of her shoes, and she didn't take anything superfluous to look out.

I was very satisfied, and I felt that this girl had learned the rules very well.

When the others walked out, the master and servant breathed a sigh of relief.

Cherry walked up to Du Jingyi and said.

"Young lady, I'm scared to death of the slave, I thought it was ...... Thought it was ......"

I thought the general was going to take a mandarin duck bath with the young lady.

Although her words were not spoken, Du Jingyi understood what she wanted to express.

Not to mention, it probably meant so at first.

And now, Du Jingyi can only make up for it by himself.

"My feet have some cramps, so the general sent me here because he was afraid that I would hurt, don't think about it."

"I see, the general is really considerate to the young lady."

Cherry is also simple, and was coaxed by Du Jingyi in just a few words.

It wasn't until many years later, when she herself lived this shameless life, that she realized that there was something called a little love between husband and wife.

Then he waited for Du Jingyi to take a careful bath.

As for Shang Ji next door, a few buckets of hot water were poured from the beginning to the bottom, but it was fast.

After everything was dressed neatly, he called Luo Yuan over.

"Go find Steward He and Mama Dou."

"Yes."

Luo Yuan thought it was something important, so he hurried away.

It wasn't long before I heard footsteps outside the house.

The man arrived.

"The old slave has seen the general."

"Hmm."

"I wonder why the general summoned us here?"

Both of them knew Shang Ji's temperament, and he was not a person who could go around the corner, so they asked directly.

Shang Ji didn't talk much nonsense, and immediately ordered.

"In the ear room of the main house of the General's Mansion, if you want hot water to serve and bathe, you don't need someone to fetch water to send it repeatedly, can you do it?"

These words confused the two of them.

However, he quickly reacted and replied.

"It should be possible, the old slave once heard that there is such a room in the palace."

"Well, then I'll arrange it, so that I don't have to alarm the people in a yard to prepare water when I come back late in the future, trouble."

The two of them looked like this, and they felt that their generals were really a model of kindness to their subordinates.

But they didn't know that Shang Ji's purpose was actually for his own happiness in the future, so they missed the smile on the corner of his mouth.

But if they see it, they are afraid that they will be very doubtful.

Isn't the general not smiling by nature?

What are you doing at the moment?

Outside, the cold north wind continued to blow, but it was warm inside.

After they left for a long time, Du Jingyi came out of the ear room and returned to the main house.

Originally, I thought that as long as I wasn't embarrassed, it would be someone else's embarrassment, so I rushed in with a sigh of relief.

When I went in, I found that there was no one in the house.

"Where's the general?"

Du Jingyi opened his mouth and asked Lizhu who was following behind him, this girl had just come out of the main house, and she would probably know his whereabouts.

Sure enough, Lizhu replied respectfully.

"The general went to the study, and said that let the young lady eat first, he has tricky military affairs to deal with there, and he will not use lunch with the lady."

Hearing this, Du Jingyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly I felt less nervous.

Once the person's spirit is relaxed, he will naturally feel hungry.

I didn't have breakfast in the first place, and now it's time for lunch outside.

Li Zhu naturally saw that her young lady was hungry, and immediately asked people to bring things to the table.

Looking at the not much food on the table, Du Jingyi remembered her husband who was still in the study.

Lizhu is not stupid, so he hurried and said.

"Don't worry, the young lady, the general also sent things over, all of which the general loves to eat on weekdays."

"Well, that's good."

After saying this, Du Jingyi sat down on the stool and chewed slowly one bite at a time.

Maybe she's really hungry, maybe it's because Danruo's craftsmanship has improved again, and all in all, she eats more than ever before.

But seeing her like this, the two maids were also very happy.

Especially cherries.

She hasn't forgotten what Cai's mother had said.

"Madame's body is too thin, she needs to eat and sleep more to raise herself, and if she has a child in the future, she can eat well."

Therefore, seeing Du Jingyi eating happily, the corners of her mouth never fell.

It wasn't until Du Jingyi ate that he couldn't eat anymore and sighed that he couldn't eat anymore, and then the two of them started to clean up.

She was full of food, but she got up late, so she was in good spirits at this time.

And there is nothing to do today, so Du Jingyi plans to read idle books for a while.

By the way, I found a few interesting books and sent them to my sister-in-law to look at Le Yile.

Otherwise, I will be confined in the courtyard every day, and I will be sick if I am not sick.

There is a bookshelf against the wall in the main room, where there are idle books that Du Jingyi collected when he was at his parents' house.

Some are bizarre and strange, and some are old news.

Du Jingyi took a few books that told fairy stories and looked through them.

She had read this book a few years ago.

Now it's fun to get old books into new eyes.

It was as hard as a cup of tea, and not long after I watched it, I heard familiar footsteps outside.

Immediately after that, the sound of cherries and lizhu was heard.

"The slave has seen the general."

Hearing that her husband was coming, Du Jingyi was a little better than the embarrassment just now.

got up and sat on the kang, and saw that Shang Ji had already walked in, followed by Steward He.

Compared with his calmness, Steward He was very happy, and Du Jingyi was confused, and asked curiously after saluting Shang Ji.

"General, is there any happy event?"

When she opened her mouth, Shang Ji didn't see much excitement, and said in a calm tone.

"Just now the palace sent a message, saying that the queen mother is going to summon you to the palace tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?"

This time, let alone Du Jingyi, even the two maids were shocked by this sudden news.

"Why so suddenly?"

"It's not sudden, I didn't see you when I went back to the palace for a banquet last time, and the queen mother remembered this matter, and now it's been a month or two, so naturally I want to summon you."

Then he looked her up and down, and then said again.

"You are not a lady now, so you don't have a court dress to meet the wife, tomorrow you dress up in line with your identity, don't be too prominent, dignified and generous, it's good to be like this today."

His words fell on the ears of Du Jingyi's master and servant word by word, but they brought up the thoughts of the three of them.
