Chapter 129: Entering the Palace
Lin looked Xiahou Yan up and down: "Yan'er, are you okay?"
"What can I do?" asked Xiahou Yan puzzled.
"I heard that Xiahoushuang was burned by fire on the street today, and my mother was worried about you, so I hurried over to take a look. ”
I didn't know about such a big thing, Xia Houyan became excited when she heard it and asked, "Is there still such a thing?"
Lin looked at Xiahou Yan and asked expectantly, and snorted lightly: "It's a pity that she escaped, and now in your grandmother's room, it's strange for you to say, how can you be burned if you go on the street well?" It seems that God can't get used to her, but it's a pity that her life is really big, and he still didn't take her away." ”
Lin said regretfully, and Xiahou Yan also felt pity, and only said: "It's a pity that I haven't seen such a good thing." ”
Speaking of this, the Lin family remembered and asked, "Why are you with that Chen Gongzi?"
Xiahou Yan pursed her lips and said, "It's the second brother who wants him to follow me, and I can't help it." ”
Lin said earnestly: "This Chen Rui is a poor talent, your grandmother was dizzy that day before she promised you to him, don't be deceived by his rhetoric, mother must have to think of a good way not to marry you to him like this before you and Xu, you have to stay away from him now, don't be deceived." ”
"Hmph, just with his poor and sour appearance, mother, don't worry, even if I marry a cat or a dog, I won't marry him. Xiahou Yan sneered.
"It's good that you know, it's a pity that your grandmother can't listen to what your mother says now, and she insists on marrying you to her, it's really hateful!" Saying this, the Lin family rushed with anger in his heart.
"Mother, don't be angry, you don't mean to think long-term, we have time to plan. Xiahou Yan comforted.
Lin felt that Yan'er had grown a lot during this period of time being locked up in the mansion, and she was not as impulsive as before, so she nodded and said, "Yes, I will definitely come up with a good way." "I remembered that I hadn't been in contact with Tang Gongzi for a long time, and I thought about when I would see Tang Gongzi.
On the second day, the old lady got up early, put on a court dress of a good order, and went to the queen mother's palace to hand over a jade plaque to wait for the summons.
I didn't let the old lady wait too long, and the waiter came out and summoned: "Please see the old lady Hong." ”
The old lady walked to the palace with the inner attendant, this inner attendant is the old man next to the Queen Mother, since the Queen Mother ate fasting and chanted Buddha a few years ago without asking about foreign affairs, she also lived a semi-secluded life with the Queen Mother.
"Is the Queen Mother in good health?" asked the old lady.
"The mother is in good health, and sometimes she will talk about her wife. "The old lady had a good relationship with the Queen Mother when she was young, and the chamberlain didn't dare to take a shelf, so she said with a smile.
"That's good, it's hard work. "When others give face, they naturally have to pay three respects, and the old lady said to the waiter.
"Thanks to the blessing of the mother, the old slave is quite tough. The chamberlain said with a chuckle.
Having arrived at the gate of the palace while speaking, the old lady raised her feet and entered the palace, only to see the queen mother sitting on the main seat, silver hair but spirit, a pair of eyes flashed with wisdom from time to time, wearing a dark red palace dress, not angry and self-righteous after seeing the old lady opened her mouth to give a seat, and said with a smile: "You old woman has not come to see the mourning family for a long time." ”
After the old lady sat down, she smiled and said: "The affairs in the house are busy, and it is the fault of the courtiers that they have not taken time out to visit Niangniang, so don't blame Niangniang." ”
The Queen Mother smiled: "You enjoy the joy of family in the house every day, no wonder you don't want to come out." ”
Then asked about the situation of the people in the house, the old lady told her grandson about the engagement and the granddaughter and the matter of the house, and mentioned her eldest granddaughter, the old lady was full of praise, and the queen mother nodded again and again when she heard it, and said that she would bring it next time when she came.
Speaking of this, the old lady sighed and said: "Originally, I wanted to take her to ask my mother for peace this time, but who knew that yesterday I went out with the people in the house and almost died in a fire, and now the burn is covered with scars, and such a thing happened to a delicate girl's family, which is really distressing to death." ”
"And what's going on?" asked the queen in surprise.
The old lady recounted in detail what happened to Xiahou Shuang yesterday, and said at the end: "Today's courtiers came to give up this face and beg the mother to help preside over justice. ”
The lord of Fulin is an orphan left by the emperor's sister, raised by the queen's side, and has a very luxurious temperament, but he didn't expect to be so vicious, and he dared to hurt people's lives at a young age.
The Queen Mother is not His Majesty's biological mother, a few years ago there were rumors in the palace that His Majesty's biological mother died in the hands of the Queen Mother, although the rumors quickly dissipated, but a thorn was buried in the hearts of the mother and son,
Because of this reason, Queen Chen did not put the Queen Mother in her eyes and acted against her everywhere, the emperor turned a blind eye, and the Queen Mother was so angry that she had to cover the palace gate, and she did not let the palace concubine come to disturb her except for festivals on weekdays, and lived a semi-secluded life.
The old lady knew the contradiction between the queen mother and the queen, so she asked the queen mother to complain, and with the grievances between the two and the handle sent to the door, it was impossible for the queen mother not to catch it.
"What you say is true, what is the proof?" the Queen Mother asked.
The old lady said unhurriedly: "That day, the courtier's granddaughter had a quarrel with the county lord on the front foot, and it didn't take long for her maid to be taken away, if it wasn't for the county lord, who else would there be?"
"In order to save the maid and my granddaughter was burned by the fire, there was Zhang Shangshu's son at that time, but the Zhang son's injury was more serious, and he is still unconscious. ”
When the queen mother heard that there was still the son of Shangshu Mansion, she felt that this matter was a big deal, nodded and said: "This matter will be told to the emperor to let him investigate thoroughly, but now it involves Fulin, you also know that this county lord is an orphan left by the eldest princess, and she is quite favored by the emperor and queen on weekdays, if this matter is done by her, it will not be too easy to do."
When the old lady heard this, she said sadly and angrily: "Xiahouzhong, the father of the granddaughter of the courtier, her mother was still the mother of the two before they tied the knot, and now the mother of the frost girl died early, and her father is guarding the border all the year round, and only my wife and son support her at home. After speaking, he knelt down tremblingly.
The queen mother waved her hand and asked the palace maid to help her up, nodded and said: "The mourning family knows about this matter, and they will tell the emperor, don't worry, I will notify you when the result is in a few days." ”
When the old lady saw the queen mother say this, she was relieved, as long as the queen mother was willing to take care of this matter, she would definitely check back to the implementation office, and after another conversation, the old lady got up and retired.
