Chapter 142 Aunt Qiu’s Petition

"Miss, do you really want to..."

"It's not that I want it, but the one who wants it. How can the younger sister not give it?"

"Going to Qing Ci Temple to offer incense?"

Eunuch Cao looked coldly at the girl kneeling on the ground with his slender eyes.

Zihong nodded tremblingly at him, then lowered her head and said: "I hope you will be merciful. My aunt's father and brother both died on the road of exile. Fortunately, the prince couldn't bear her to live in the teaching workshop and approach the mansion. Three years ago, my aunt's mother passed away and there is also the palace." She came forward to be placed in Qingci Nunnery, and even gave incense and lit the everlasting lamp. My aunt has always been grateful. Now that the prince is not in the mansion, my aunt said that she should have kept her own life, but... aunt has not seen her mother for two years, and a few days ago she dreamed of her mother Ma'am, I really... really miss you so much, that's why I begged my father-in-law to allow my aunt to go to Qingci Temple to offer incense when the old lady's funeral... Please show me your kindness!"

The purple eyes turned red, and he bowed deeply and kowtowed, making a bang bang sound.

Eunuch Cao thought about it for a while, and his face softened a little, but he still had no good looks, "Since you know that the prince is not in the mansion, you have to be more careful in everything, otherwise no one can afford it if there is an accident. It's just that Aunt Qiu is grateful for her mother, and the miscellaneous family can't help it." It's not humane, after three days, the Zajia will send people to Qing Ci Nunnery to add some incense, so as not to let the old lady live in poverty underground."

Probably did not expect Eunuch Cao to say that, Zi Hong was stunned with a flushed forehead, "But Eunuch... Auntie is only going to Qingci Temple, not to other places, even if it is just to stay for a while on the incense sticks, it is good."

"The miscellaneous family said that you need to ask the prince for instructions. When the prince returns to the mansion, if the aunt still wants to go, you can just report to the prince. The miscellaneous family thinks that the old lady will not be able to wait for two or three months, right?"

Eunuch Cao looked over with a pair of cold but dangerous eyes, and Zi Hong muttered and couldn't speak.

Autumn Shuangge

"Don't let me go?"

Aunt Qiu looked at Zihong in astonishment, her face flushed instantly, and a handkerchief embroidered with Huimei twisted into a ball in the blink of an eye.

"Yes, my servant begged hard, but Eunuch Cao just refused, saying that we can only wait for the prince to come back to ask for instructions." Zi Hong's forehead was still red, she rubbed her lips and grinned, "I am afraid that the servant may have knocked his head to the ground, and Eunuch Cao will not be allowed." I won't agree."

Aunt Qiu looked at the purple-red forehead, she couldn't help but her eyes were red, and she was angry, "The prince is not in the mansion all the year round, so Eunuch Cao is not in charge of any matter, such a small matter, but it takes less than two hours to go back and forth, it is really a shame." It's too deceiving!"

She bit her lip and said angrily: "If it was six years ago, how dare that old man..."

"Sister Qiu!"

Aunt Qing, who was drinking tea at the side, quickly put down the teacup, stood up and put her arms around her, "Why did my sister mention six years ago, the scenery at that time may never come back in my life, and now the palace can eat delicious food It's not too bad to support us, the more you think about it, the sadder it will be."

Aunt Qing's forced smile made Aunt Qiu almost shed tears, "You and I are still young, are we just so lonely and old?"

"Then what can we do? We are all weak women. We are born as members of the palace and die as ghosts of the palace. As long as the palace is willing to take us in, we are afraid..."

Aunt Qing opened her eyes, covered her mouth, and didn't say any more.

Zihong panicked and ran to close the door.

That Mr. Lin.

Aunt Qiu's well-maintained and beautiful fingers, the pink nails were deeply embedded in the palm.

Everyone knows that the backyard is just a decoration. It is a shelter for weak women like them, but it is also a thorn in the eyes of others.

Aunt Qing opened her clear eyes, and looked at Aunt Qiu with hopeful eyes, "Your Majesty won't do this, will you? At least we don't skimp on food and clothing, but we can't go out, and it's inconvenient for our parents at home." Come to visit, but which concubine can visit at will, you and my sister are not even side concubines, they are just playthings."

Speaking of this, he was extremely sad, "It doesn't hurt anyone if you think about it."

Does it really bother anyone?

Aunt Qiu sometimes really envies Aunt Qing's ignorance and innocence. Her face showed a little bitterness, and her bright and beautiful face stroked Aunt Qing's long hair with a slight smile, and said softly: "My sister is right, it is my sister who wants to Left, it's getting late, my sister should go back too."

Aunt Qing hesitated for a moment, but she still obediently bowed, "Then elder sister rests earlier, if you have anything to say, feel free to come to younger sister."

Aunt Qiu nodded.

Linglong supported Aunt Qing, and the two of them walked a few steps, only to see Aunt Qing turned her head again, "Sister, forgive my sister for saying something bad, who the lord likes and spoils is not something we can control. Now that he has a son, the prince has no responsibility to spread his branches and leaves, so what is the difference between a man and a woman."

Saying that, the figure of Aunt Qing's master and servant left.

Zihong helped Aunt Qiu to the mirror stand, took off the hairpin for her, and untied her hair, but she was worried when she saw Aunt Qiu staring at the mirror in a daze, "Miss..."

"Zihong, tell me...if my father didn't commit a crime and was convicted and exiled, shouldn't I sit on the high bed and warm the bed at this moment, waiting for her to serve, rule over the concubine's room, teach the children, and win over the husband-in-law?"

She was originally a young lady from a family of officials, and she used to have a handkerchief with a famous lady in the capital, and they were like sisters. However, overnight, the family was ruined, the men were slaves, and the women were prostitutes, just like a dream.

Zi Hong took a comb and carefully combed Aunt Qiu's black hair, hesitated for a moment, and persuaded: "Miss, why bother thinking about these things, it's much better now than going to that kind of place."

In that kind of place, Aunt Qiu smiled, with deep affection in her eyes, "Yes, thanks to the prince for taking me in."

There was another tender and lingering day, as if it was just yesterday.

"But he has changed, Mrs. Yao is guilty, and the princess is wrong. I am also extremely heartbroken when something like that happens, but I am humble and insignificant and cannot stop it. I hope to accompany him and heal his pain, just like the princess once hurt me." I can play the piano to him, and he will come out slowly... But why doesn't he come to me? What's so good about Mr. Lin? Scholar, he is not very good-looking."

Aunt Qiu's eyes were moist, and her heart was full of sorrow, she suddenly couldn't help but lay down on the mirror stage and cried bitterly, "I just want to pay homage to my mother, even this is not allowed, why!"

Zihong pinched the handkerchief, weeping silently.

It can only be said that good fortune tricks people, the more proud Miss Qianjin was at the beginning, the more unacceptable it is to be reduced to this situation.

It's just that she forgot that when the road ahead was dark, she heard that she entered the palace as a concubine and said that she would be satisfied as long as there is a shelter for a slave and a maidservant so as not to fall into the dust.

After Zhao Yuanrong finished writing the last sentence, he read it up and down. If there were no gaps, he blew the ink and put the answer sheet into the brocade box, ready to send it to the Lin Mansion for review tomorrow.

Seeing him put down his pen, Gu's mother hurriedly urged him to go back to the bedroom, and ordered the maids to bring in tea and towels, and waited for Zhao Yuanrong to change and wash.

"My son, don't be so late in the future, and hurt your eyes carefully."

She quickly wiped Zhao Yuanrong's hands, changed her pajamas, and removed her hair.

Zhao Yuanrong smiled, and said indifferently: "I came back from the farm, and I have a lot of feelings. My cousin said that taking advantage of this freshness, I should write down what needs to be written down as soon as possible. Tomorrow's impressions are indispensable."

Gu's mother stopped talking, and only urged Zhao Yuanrong to finish tidying up quickly.

However, at this moment, a little maid serving Gu's mother looked inside.

"If Mama Gu has something to do, go and get busy, I'll rest now." Zhao Yuanrong said very considerately.

Gu's mother frowned, "The slaves come as soon as they go, the son is not allowed to read."

Zhao Yuanrong touched his nose, smiled and nodded.

After a while, I heard Gu's mother's voice, "Okay, for the sake of my aunt's sincerity, I'll ask. As for success or failure, it's up to the prince, don't force it."

Then came the words of gratitude.

Zhao Yuanrong was a little confused, so he waited for Mama Gu to come in.

As soon as Gu's mother came in to take a look, she was immediately displeased and said, "My lord, why don't you go to bed and rest?"

"Mother Gu, who is looking for you outside the door?"

Zhao Yuanrong pulled back the quilt and was thrown onto the bed.

Gu's mother pulled down the curtain for him and said, "It's Aunt Qiu."

Zhao Yuanrong, his father's concubine, suddenly lost interest and lay down obediently.

Mother Gu stopped her hand, sighed softly, and looked at Zhao Yuanrong for a long time.

Zhao Yuanrong opened one eye, took a look, then curled his lips, "Is she here to find my son?"

"She is also a poor person." Mother Gu tucked the thin quilt for Zhao Yuanrong, "Tomorrow is Aunt Qiu's mother's memorial day, she wants to go to Qingci Temple to offer incense, but Eunuch Cao doesn't allow it, so she came up with this plan to find slaves Ask your son."

Although Zhao Yuanrong is the son of the eldest son, his father is good, how dare he control Lao Tzu, he just pays homage to his mother...

"Eunuch Cao has nothing to say for the safety of the palace. It's just that magic power is nothing more than human feelings. The slaves think it's just a trivial matter. If you think about it, let her go early and return early, and send more people to watch it. Pity the hearts of the children of the world. ah."

This last sentence touched Zhao Yuanrong's heart, and he also worshiped his mother every year to comfort his missing, and when he compared his heart to his heart, he was moved.

It's just that although Zhao Jingyi is not around, he is the only master, but he never cares about the affairs of the inner court, so he must not lose face to Eunuch Cao, so he said: "I will ask Eunuch Cao tomorrow."

Gu's mother was overjoyed when she heard the words, she quickly smiled and said, "Thank you for your understanding, I will let this servant tell her."

Not long after Gu's mother went out, she heard a thank you, and Zhao Yuanrong turned around with a smile, not paying much attention.

The son greeted him personally, Eunuch Cao was quite surprised, he raised his eyes and looked at Mama Gu, but the latter rarely stood behind Zhao Yuanrong quietly with lowered eyebrows.

"If Eunuch Cao has nothing to embarrass you, let's be accommodating and let her go back sooner."

Since the son said it, Eunuch Cao had no reason not to allow it, so he agreed.

The prince's test paper was sent to Lin's mansion, and the visitor told Lin Xi about it.

Lin Xi took out Zhao Yuanrong's answer sheet, looked it over carefully, raised the corners of her lips after hearing the report, rewarded him with money, and sent it back.

Left behind with a sigh of relief in helplessness: "This child is kind after all."

"Give her something?"

"Yes, the teacher delivered it personally."

"The lesson from the past is still in front of me, so I can't hold back anymore. Sure enough, the lady of the official family is different and refuses to accept her fate. Then let's take a gamble, maybe it will succeed?"
