Mammy returned to Xiushui Palace again, before she entered the palace gate, she saw the two maids who followed her closely on weekdays looking around at the gate of the palace, and when she saw her back, she immediately retracted her neck.

Nanny Rong was annoyed by the sneaky appearance of the two, but she got the order from the concubine to find out what the secret Concubine Xu was hiding.He tried his best not to show any signs of expression, and even greeted the two with a smile: "Why don't you go in when it's so cold outside?"

"We're worried that you went out without a hand warmer, so we'll wait here to pick you up." The palace maid perfunctorily asked, "Has Mammy gone to the Imperial Concubine's Palace?"

Grandma Rong saw that both of them were empty-handed, and they couldn't even make up nonsense.In the past few years of serving the concubine, she didn't make any progress, but she learned that the essence of lying lies in details and logic.

These two little maids are still too young to make up a nonsense full of loopholes, but she didn't tell the truth, and followed the two of them: "Since I'm back, let's go in together, and I'll bother you two to send a message to Concubine Xu, The concubine sent me to work in Xiushui Palace, I am stupid by nature, even if I am not qualified to serve by the empress's side, at least I should bow and kowtow to the new master, right?"

The two little maids looked at me and I looked at you, but they couldn't make up their minds. "Let's serve Mammy for dinner first!"

Xu Pindong was very sleepy, the emperor didn't bother to dress up when he didn't come to the harem, and spent his days on the bed.

The two little maids who were sent to Nanny Rong's side entered the main hall to answer while Nanny Rong was taking a break from lunch.

"You are worthy of being a capable person by the concubine's side. She really can talk." Concubine Xu sneered and said, "She is not qualified to serve by my side, but she is an old man who has served the concubine for many years. This word must be passed on to the empress dowager." In the ears of the imperial concubine, even if I die a hundred times, it is not enough."

The two little maids waited for the master to speak: "Then have you seen Rong Rong?"

"I've talked about this for the sake of it. Don't you dare not see me? That's fine. Let me just say that I have already fallen asleep, and arrange for her to come back tomorrow morning!" Concubine Xu sent the little palace maid out, and the little princess was also taken care of by her grandmother. The nanny took her away and coaxed her to sleep. Apart from Concubine Xu, there was only her personal maid, Yang Liu, in the bedroom.

"Let's just say that the visitor is not kind. I just went to Xiankang Palace, and I want to see this palace when I come back." Xu Bin pouted and looked at Yang Liu, with a little coquettish anger in her anger.

Yang Liu, who was standing beside Concubine Xu's couch with her hands together, saw that there was no one else in the hall, so she changed her face and sat next to Concubine Xu, hugged her in her arms and said, "Your Majesty, why don't I go out of the palace? Ours It's no fun being discovered."

"It's easy to go out, but it's hard to come back in." Concubine Xu said reluctantly, put her arms around Yang Liu's neck, put her lips up and kissed, and asked, "Are you really willing to go?"

"Where is the willingness. Even if you die, you will die on your mother." Yang Liu unbuttoned her clothes and pushed Concubine Xu down.

Recently, King Jia intends to ease the relationship with the princess, he firmly believes that it must be his fault that the two are drifting apart.As soon as he returned to the palace after finishing his work, he went to Princess Jia's courtyard, and wanted to talk to Princess Jia, even if she refused again, at least let Princess Jia know that he had looked for her.

"Princess is out." Nanny replied with her head bowed.

"Did you go to the temple?" King Jia didn't believe it.What do you do in the temple on the winter solstice?There is always a fixed date for the princess to go to the temple. "Is it because the concubine refused to see me and let the mother coax the king away?"

"Slaves dare not. The concubine went to the palace this morning to take care of the empress dowager."

Jin Yang, who heard that his father was returning to the mansion, found him at this time, and after sending the mother away, he said to King Jia: "I sent my mother and concubine away."

"Isn't this nonsense?" The concubine and Jinyang are both sensible people, why did the mother and daughter do such a stupid thing: "Did you say when you will come back?" The further you go, the more unsafe the palace will be. Not because he was afraid that the emperor would be suspicious, he wanted to drive into the palace to bring him back right now.

"Mother promised to come back to see her often. But I'm afraid that moving out of the palace will wait for the concubine to recover from her illness." Jin Yang signaled his father to enter the room to speak.

King Jia hesitated for a moment, he hadn't set foot in Wangfei's room for many years.The princess never wanted to see him when he came here at night, and the princess often sat in the Buddhist hall during the day, surrounded by a lot of nuns and maidservants, even if he had some thoughts, he had no choice but to give up.He often had to go to Concubine Li or other wives' rooms after getting a few bad noses at Wangfei's place.

He is only thirty this year, and he was in his twenties when the concubine first snubbed him.That kind of thing is easy to endure for a while, as a prince with more than a dozen concubines, it is inevitable that he will wonder why he has to endure it, and then simply indulge himself.

There was no one in the room, and the furnishings hadn't changed much compared to many years ago. King Jia looked around the room with a lot of emotions, and suddenly asked Jin Yang: "Did your mother tell you, why are you angry with your father?"

Jin Yang was questioned, how could she know something that none of the parties involved knew. "Maybe it's some lady's jealousy, how could my mother tell me about this kind of thing."

It was only then that King Jia realized that although his daughter acted like an adult, she was actually not yet old enough to chat with her mother about her feelings. "Let's not talk about this. How could you let your mother enter the palace?"

"It's rare for a mother and the concubine to hit it off, so it would be nice for her to have someone to talk to, right? Whether it's the side concubine Li or the wives in the palace, even those who were married by your mother and were accepted by you, one of them can talk to your mother." There's nothing to talk about to relieve boredom. Don't you feel bad?"

"A good person sits like a stone Buddha in the Buddhist hall. He doesn't speak or smile all day long. He has a lot of worries. Last time, my mother only spent half a day with the concubine when she came back. I know you are worried about your mother. But as long as we go smoothly, the one in the palace won't have a chance to fight back."

Jin Yang was a little ashamed to speak out, and after deliberating for a long time, he said: "Besides, if Xiao'er can't find someone to prescribe the medicine, my daughter plans to start from Xiankang Palace, and my mother is in the Taifei Palace, so there are more opportunities."

"You want to use your mother?" King Jia knew that although his daughter was young, she could be more ruthless than him when it was time to be ruthless, but he never expected that the little girl would even take advantage of her own mother. "Her bodhisattva nature, if you use her hands to kill the emperor, you will force her to death."

"Don't worry, I won't let my mother do it, and I won't let her find out that the emperor was drugged in Xiankang Palace." Jin Yang hurriedly explained that she would not put her mother's conscience on the dog emperor's life. "It's just that the emperor seldom goes to the harem. Concubine Xian went to the Changhe Palace a few days ago..." Jin Yang didn't go any further. King Xian and his father, King Jia, were also half-confidants. , Concubine Xian actually did such a shameful thing.

"Hmph~ A broken pot deserves a broken lid." King Jia couldn't help but say vulgar words.He felt that it was a shame to be born with the same mother as the current emperor, not only his shame, but also the shame of his mother who passed away early.

"I won't let my mother have anything to do. I've already sent a message to Xiao'er, asking the female guard loyal to the Shen family to secretly protect my mother. You don't have to worry." She also asked Shen Xiao to take care of her by the way. Looking at Lianyue, the water in the palace is deep, she is afraid that something will happen to Lianyue.

***

Jiuyang aggressively wanted to find Princess Lingyang, it was the first time she had seen that lawless girl like Lianyue when she was so old.Do you think nothing will happen if you escape to Qinghui Palace?If Lingyang disobeyed the princess's order, he had to ask his father if he wanted to keep it.

There must have been grievances in the emperor's heart about Jinyang's matter, but he didn't care about it for the sake of the concubine.If rules are established, then people should obey them. Otherwise, why would we need rules, what would we need from laws?

She was so angry that she was like a copper pot boiling water, puffing out white gas, and when she was about to reach Qinghui Palace, she saw the Queen coming towards her in a sedan chair.Jiuyang strode to the sedan chair and bowed: "I have seen the empress."

"Get up! I heard that you are sick, but are you better?" the queen asked absent-mindedly.

Jiuyang gritted his teeth, secretly hating the queen for pretending to be confused, and clearly complained to her that it was Jinyang who beat her, and said in front of the palace that she was sick herself. "My son is much better now." Hatred turned to hate, Jiuyang didn't dare to show it.

The queen had no intention of bringing up the matter of Jinyang beating Jiuyang again. The concubine was obviously partial to things that Jinyang let go, and she would only be boring herself if she brought it up again.Jin Yang hit him immediately, just as she couldn't understand Jiu Yang's acting like a fool in front of the emperor.She also felt that Jinyang's attack was too light, and within two days, Jiuyang was bouncing around and annoying her again.

"That's good." The queen wanted to stop this boring conversation, suggesting that Jiuyang should get out of here quickly, so as not to block her way back to the palace.

Unexpectedly, Jiuyang didn't seem to understand, not only refused to let go, but knelt down on both knees.

"I beg the empress to make the decision for my minister." Jiuyang was no longer coquettish at this time, and suddenly knelt on the thin snow, tears came as soon as he said it.

The empress sighed and supported her forehead, it was freezing cold, she really wasn't in the mood to watch Jiuyang act as a demon.Jiuyang's few tears, it's okay to trick the emperor to feel sorry for his daughter, but in her opinion, it just feels disgusting and unappetizing.

"If you have something to do, go to the palace and talk about it in detail!" The queen signaled the palace people to get up the sedan chair.

Before the sedan chair left the ground, Jiuyang knelt and walked a few steps on the snowy ground, holding the edge of the sedan chair like an actor in a bittersweet drama, crying, "My son was killed by a little maid in Lingyang's sister's palace today. Bullying. Erchen wanted to punish her, but she pushed him and ran away."

This incident hit the queen's heart.

The people in Qinghui Palace are indeed too unruly. She doesn't care if Jiuyang is injured or not, but the order is orderly, and some rules can't be broken.It’s okay to punish one or two palace servants to let Lingyang learn a lesson. The concubine is a sick child, and she is in charge of the affairs of the harem. If those people in Qinghui Palace collide with the emperor, the emperor will forget her position as the head of the harem. It's not impossible, even if she refers to one more concubine assistant, it's enough for her to respond.

"There's no such thing. Do you still remember what the little maid who attacked you looked like?" The queen will take care of this matter, but it will never make a big fuss.If it's really someone from Qinghui Palace, it would be very bad for Lingyang to make a big fuss.Lingyang is about to choose a son-in-law, and if there is a disturbance at this time, many sons will be scared away.
