Chapter 20: The palace maid is dead

"The emperor has arrived!" The eunuch at the gate of the Longevity Palace made a sound.

The palace maids and eunuchs knelt down one after another, and the emperor asked them to enter the queen mother's palace after they were even.

"It's so lively, is Rourou also there?" The emperor asked.

Rourou immediately ran to the emperor's side and took the emperor's hand: "Father, you also came to see the emperor's grandmother, the imperial grandmother can already talk to Rourou." ”

The emperor hugged Rourou.

"I have dinner with Jinhui here today with the Queen Mother."

"Rourou is also going to dine with the imperial grandmother here."

The time was not early, and several people, under the leadership of the palace maid, walked to the dining room of the Longevity Palace.

After Meng Nanxing sat down, the palace maids brought the dishes the same.

"These are all specially ordered by me to make in the imperial dining room, the emperor's health is just right, and the rice should be lighter."

Meng Nanxing looked at the dozens of dishes on the table, and his eyes were about to light up.

There are all things that fly in the sky, run on the ground, and swim in the water, and the dishes are exceptionally beautiful and the color is very fresh.

Meng Nanxing felt that he had crossed over to enjoy the blessings.

A few people eat, there are no special rules, the palace maid is next to the dishes, a few people are chatting, Meng Nanxing herself doesn't know much, she doesn't speak, concentrate on cooking.

However, from the chats of several people, a lot of messages were captured.

The eldest prince Xiao Yiyang has his own territory and has not come back for many years, the second prince is an official in the court, and the third prince has no interest in the affairs of the court, and he loves business, and these people are all married.

"Now that Jinhui is married, Jingyang's marriage has to be put on the agenda." The emperor said.

"Whose young lady in the capital is suitable, according to what I saw in this palace, it is time to hold a feast in the palace, and when the time comes, invite all the unmarried ladies in the capital to come, so that the little six and seven can choose and get married as soon as possible, it is also good." The Queen Mother said.

"Huang Eniang is right, Miss Yan of the Zhenguo General's Mansion and Miss Yan of the Shangshu Family of the Ministry of Officials are all good......"

"Huo'er's princess is from the Prime Minister's Mansion, right? Which lady is it? The Queen Mother asked.

Meng Nanxing replied truthfully: "It is the four young ladies of the Prime Minister's Mansion, whose name is Meng Pannan." ”

"Fourth Miss? Is it the concubine of the Prime Minister's house.? The Queen Mother asked.

Meng Nanxing: "The concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion is the third lady. ”

"What? A dignified prince actually married a concubine, what is going on in the Prime Minister's Mansion, what has this Meng Cheng become so bold. The Queen Mother was a little angry.

Although the fifth prince said that his health was not good, he was a prince and the son of the emperor.

Meng Nanxing and the emperor did not dare to speak.

"Your Majesty, how did you grant marriage by decree."

The emperor: "The holy decree did not name which lady to marry, the prime minister was the head of the hundred officials in the court, and when he gave Jin Huo a marriage, it was also for the sake of joy, Jin Hui's physical condition at that time was not particularly ideal, and I did not name and ask the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion to marry." ”

"It's amazing, I just pity my Huo'er."

Meng Nanxing hurriedly said: "Imperial grandmother, my grandson is fine, my grandson's princess is very good, and besides, wasn't it just to give me joy at that time, as soon as the marriage decree came, my grandson woke up, and the poison in his body was suppressed, although he lost some memories, but his life is still there, imperial grandmother, you see how fragrant my grandson's meal is now." ”

After listening to this, the Queen Mother couldn't eat at all: "What, Huo'er still lost her memory?" ”

"Fifth brother, do you remember the paper kite that Rourou gave you?"

Meng Nanxing shook his head.

The Queen Mother is still angry and upset for Hui'er.

Meng Nanxing comforted: "Imperial grandmother, although Panpan is not Miss Yan, her temperament is not inferior to Miss Yan of the Prime Minister's Mansion at all, she is gentle, and her grandson likes it very much." ”

Queen Mother: "Bring it over another day to show the imperial grandmother." ”

Subsequently, the queen mother said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, you will make another holy decree to give Miss Chang'er of the Prime Minister's Mansion to Huo'er as a side concubine, isn't the prime minister reluctant to marry his daughter-in-law?" This palace wants him to be willing to give it up. ”

Meng Nanxing was shocked when he heard the Queen Mother's speech.

This is not to be done.

This queen mother is a little crazy, but she loves this prince.

"Imperial grandmother, I saw it when the grandson of Miss Yan of the Prime Minister's Mansion came back to the door, and the grandson didn't like her from the bottom of his heart, so he didn't have to marry to be a side concubine, besides, the grandson has only been married for a few days, if she is allowed to marry, what will the princess think."

The Queen Mother thought about it too.

"In that case, let the concubines of the Prime Minister's Mansion also go to the palace to participate in the feast! When the time comes, let's see if there is a suitable one, the emperor will give a marriage, and the palace also wants to see what the girl that Huo'er doesn't like looks like. ”

The emperor nodded hurriedly.

"That's right, Huo'er, your daughter-in-law is okay in the house, right, you just let her go to the palace and accompany me more, and let her handle this feast when the time comes."

The Queen Mother arranged everything, and Meng Nanxing didn't dare to say anything.

Thinking of the woman at home, it doesn't matter if you come to the palace to practice and practice, you can grow a lot.

is to turn back, you have to make up for that woman's body, otherwise she is too thin, and it is estimated that she will not be able to hold a feast.

A few people were eating and chatting.

Gonggong Liu, who was beside the emperor, hurriedly ran in again, lay next to the emperor's ear, and said something.

The emperor's brows were obviously wrinkled, and they were all twisted together.

"Rourou, are you done eating?" The emperor asked.

Rourou nodded: "Father, the imperial grandmother Rourou is full, so she will go back first, and Rourou will come to see the imperial grandmother another day." ”

After finishing speaking, the little girl ran out, and Meng Nanxing also frowned when she saw this back.

With such a young girl and such a vision, the mother concubine must not be an ordinary person.

It seems that the princess needs to enter the palace to inquire about the news.

After Rourou left, the emperor spoke: "Da Laoli has spread the news that all the palace maids in the Queen Mother's palace have been poisoned to death. ”

"What? What about Qingping? ”

The Queen Mother slapped the table, and she was very angry.

Meng Nanxing hurriedly comforted, the old man couldn't afford to be angry so often, she only went to the Longevity Palace every hour, and the Queen Mother was angry several times.

"Grandmother Huang, don't worry for the time being, let's go and see first, what other clues can be investigated."

"That's it, Huang Eniang, you just stay in the Longevity Palace, I and Xiao Wu have passed, and I will come back in time to inform you if there is any situation."

It's better for women to go less in places like prisons.

Before the meal was finished, the emperor and Meng Nanxing took a sedan chair together and walked to the palace prison.

In the cell, it was obviously a lot more gloomy.

Someone greeted the emperor at the exit of the cell.

"What's the situation, please answer truthfully, there are five palace maids in the Queen Mother's palace, but are all of them poisoned to death?"

"Kiyohei?"

"Back to the emperor, everyone is dead, and I found it at noon today"
