Biography of Concubine Shujia

Chapter 121

On the eighth day of August in the 24th year of Xijia, it is auspicious and suitable for marriage.

The procession to see off the relatives will set off after bidding farewell to the empress. Seventh Princess Jinghan is dressed in a princess formal attire, with strong bridal makeup, waiting in the side hall of Guanju Palace, with an unreal expression on her face.

She will leave the palace, leave Yujing, leave Daliang, leave her father, mother and concubine who gave birth to her, leave her brothers and sisters, and go to the Kunsang grassland alone.

Traveling thousands of miles, I am afraid that we will not meet each other easily in this life.Thinking of this, she held back her tears and whispered to the person standing behind her, "Auntie, it's too late for you to regret it now."

The person standing behind her handed her a handkerchief, and said in a low voice, "Princess, you don't need to persuade me, this servant will never go back on his word. Let this servant say something big, in this servant's heart, the young lady's child is the slave's child. Son The mother of Xingqianli is worried, the young lady can't accompany you all the time, so the servant will accompany you for her."

Behind Seventh Princess is her personal nurse, the one who accompanied her deep into the grassland this time.

"Auntie, from now on, our mother and I will depend on each other. Don't worry, Auntie, with Jinghan here, I will never let you be bullied on the grassland." Jinghan took the handkerchief and held it tightly. Hands handing handkerchiefs.

Those hands had thin calluses, and they were slender and powerful to hold her back.Her eyes were sour, and she almost shed tears.

In the end, the one who followed her was not Ruo Min who had been taking care of her, but Ru Hua who had been by her third brother's side.Compared with Ruo Min, Ruo Min has more trust from her mother, concubine and third brother.

When she entered the painting, she accompanied her concubine, Mrs. Shujia, into the palace, and has been with her concubine since she combed. It can be said that she is the most trusted person by concubine mother, not one of them.It wasn't until my brother went to the prince's office that Aunt Ruohua followed her brother, and Aunt Ruomin followed me.

When I was a child, my aunt who was a painter always made a lot of delicious plum and chestnut cakes, so my aunt often had burn scars on her hands.

It is these hands that have won the trust of the concubine mother and their brothers and sisters; now, the owner of these hands is going away for her.

Back then, Ruomin asked her mother and concubine to go to the grassland with her, but she hesitated again and again, and decided not to take Ruomin to that harsh environment to suffer with her.

If Ruo Min doesn't follow, Mrs. Shujia is worried about the person appointed by the royal family, so the third prince recommended him to be a painter, and under his wife's reluctance, he prepares to leave Beijing with Princess Jinghan.

Ruhua has a calm temperament, watching the seventh princess grow up, not to mention understanding the princess, but also caring and careful.She cooks good dim sum. Most importantly, she was brought out from the Du Mansion by Mrs. Shujia. Not to mention she is absolutely loyal, she also knows simple medical skills.Of course, only the wife knows about medical skills.

The recommendation of the third prince made Madam suspicious.You must know that Ruhua takes care of the third prince's diet and daily life on weekdays, and the third prince is also close to Ruhua, completely treating Ruhua as his elders.The abnormal behavior of the third prince made the madam very worried.

Under his wife's repeated questioning, no one knew what the third prince said; Huaping and the others only knew that his wife cried once after the third prince left, and agreed to enter the painting and leave the capital.

"Auntie, can you bring me some more ice?" The handkerchief that Jinghan was clutching was already soaked, and anyone who waited in the palace for a long time wearing a grand coat on a hot day would be unbearable.

"Princess, please bear with me. I've used more ice at this time, and it's not good for the cold air to enter my body. The empress should be here soon, and she won't be able to leave Beijing until we don't. The empress has always been cautious, and I'm afraid she might be delayed on the way."

"Where is the mother concubine?" Jinghan asked worriedly, "This morning, she looked pale and kept vomiting; I don't know what's going on now."

"It's probably because the weather is too hot and you've got heatstroke. Miss is always in good health, so you don't have to worry. With Huaping and the others around, everything will be fine. Your Aunt Ruomin is also watching over her, so don't worry."

"That's good. Auntie can also sit down. The queen mother won't be here for a while, so you can talk to me."

"Do you want the princess?" Ruhua took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and opened it, and on the handkerchief was a small plum blossom-shaped pastry, exquisite and attractive.

The master and the servant chatted while eating the sweet pastries.

Mental Cultivation Hall, side hall.

"Waste, a bunch of waste!" The emperor was furious, "A good queen, you can lose me." The leader of the Los Angeles palace knelt on the ground without saying a word, enduring the emperor's anger.

God knows how the three women in the palace struggled.He felt that it was a miracle that he could report the news now.

"Your Majesty, Kunsang's side is about to enter the palace. Your Majesty Mu has already done his best. The princess is still waiting in Guanju Palace, look?" Xiao Luzi reminded, staring at the emperor's anger.

"Let Liang Jun Wang go and stop him, you go in person and let Xin Yin come back to see me." The emperor waved his hand, and his own imperial guards came in, took the leader of Luo City down and imprisoned him first.

The leader of Luocheng was also from the royal family, so he naturally understood the emperor's intentions, so he cooperated with the imperial guards and walked. When he reached the door, the leader of Luocheng, whose back was facing the emperor, moved his lips slightly, and changed quickly without anyone noticing. a strange gesture.

The emperor looked at the closed palace door, and said to Yang Zhong, "You took Madam's court clothes and brought them to Yaohua Palace, and asked Madam to go to Guanju Palace and wait for me."

Yang Zhong responded and led the people in the hall to withdraw.

Emperor Rui tapped the imperial case lightly with his fingers, and Bing Chen on the beam came down as promised, and after cupping his fists at the emperor, he replied softly, "The leader of Luo City said that before the queen disappeared, she went to the palace secretly to visit the tomb, and then He stayed in his own palace all the time. When he found out that something was wrong, there was no one in the queen's palace."

"Bring it." The emperor stretched out his hand, "That kid in Los Angeles is very shrewd, it's possible he didn't notice it."

"The lord is wise." Bingchen offered a ball of white gauze with both hands.

On the white gauze, there is a palace poem written in lower script with hairpin flowers.The emperor opened it up to look carefully, and couldn't help frowning. Does this mean he must be forced to be unfilial?

He handed the gauze back to Bingchen, "Call together people to search Xiao's house secretly."

"Master?" Bingchen was startled, at this juncture, he went to search Xiao's house, not afraid of causing disturbance.

"You'll know it when you see it." The emperor held his forehead, "The Xiao family, can't you stay?!"

Bingchen didn't dare to speak, and carefully opened the gauze. When he saw the words, he was more excited than the emperor, "Master, the master's wife is in danger. This subordinate is mobilizing people to sneak into Xiao's house."

"Take this token and go to the Baiji rouge shop in the middle of the capital, and ask the head wife for two or three inches of red heart rouge, and ask her head to deliver it in person."

"You want Master Ba to secretly go out of Beijing to investigate in Los Angeles?" Bing Chen disagreed, "Master Ba will definitely take away a large number of hidden guards when he goes out of Beijing. The guards around you have been declining, so it won't work."

"With Xin Yin here, nothing will happen."

"The reason why you recruited Xin Yin is to let him be your personal bodyguard?" Bingchen couldn't believe it, and if the minister who sent you off for marriage came back to be your bodyguard, the master must be confused.

"Xin Yin's prediction of the situation in the palace is more accurate than any of you. He is good at poison and martial arts, and has his own network of relationships. Staying by my side is the best way.

"The queen seems to be unable to make it back. The date of Han'er's marriage cannot be changed. Let San'er follow her to the northwest and personally send his sister to marry."

"The king of the county is only 14 years old, good master, do you want to know?"

"I will inform Madam later about San'er's departure from Beijing. But Madam needs the cooperation of the Empress. You will find an opportunity to send this gauze to Madam later."

"My subordinate understands."

"It must be kept by the madam. The queen is not here, and the madam is the same as the deputy queen. If anyone in the sixth palace is restless, tell the madam, and he will be severely punished." The emperor said lightly.

"Your subordinates will write it down. Let's do it now."

Xin Yin was taken aback when he saw Bingchen. The situation was urgent, and he didn't have time to exchange greetings. After nodding to Bingchen, he pushed the door open and entered.

Bingchen's eyes darkened, he held the gauze in his arms, gritted his teeth and turned around, Madam, if you want to blame, blame the man you love for being too cruel, he is the one who wants to stain your hands with blood; he is the one who wants to use your hands to get rid of Xiao Xiao. Some forces in the family will destroy your good relationship with the queen.

Yaohua Palace, the main hall.

Ten Niang was standing, stretching out her hand for Huaping and they helped her change clothes.At this moment, her abdomen was churning, and a wave of nauseating thoughts spread again.

She put her hand on her lower abdomen, and said coldly to the person behind her, "Put on the girdle."

"Master, don't make things difficult for yourself." Standing behind Huaping and the others, Ruomin put away the girdle in Huaping's hand.

"Ruomin, is this palace too cruel?" Ten Niang turned her head away, "It's not that this palace is cruel, but current events make him doomed to live in peace."

"Ma'am, Vice President Yang, who is beside the emperor, is asking to see you." The little palace maid came in to report.

"Let him come in." Shi Niang replied, Yang Zhong is a safe person, since the emperor sent him, there must be something urgent to inform her.

Sure enough, after Yang Zhong came in, he signaled her to back away with his eyes.

Huaping has sharp eyes, pulling Ruo Min and Si Jin to retreat.I don't want the master to say, "Ruomin stay. The rest go down."

Huaping led the people back, Ruomin stood behind Ten Niang, didn't speak, just listened to Yang Zhong said, "Ma'am, the emperor asked you to change clothes, go to Guanju Palace to accompany the princess, and give the princess a wedding."

"This is not in compliance with the rules." Shi Niang said, "What exactly happened, can my father-in-law tell me?"

"Your Majesty can follow the master's will." That's what he said, but Yang Zhong still pointed in the direction of the palace.

Ten Niang had a rough idea in her heart, and nodded to Yang Zhong.Ruomin stepped forward, without saying a word, and put the handkerchief in Yang Zhong's hand, before Yang Zhong could refuse, Ruomin had retreated to Shi Niang's side.

"Madam, please change your clothes. The servant will call Luan Jia for you." Yang Zhong said and retreated.

Under Ruo Min's service, Shi Niang put on the loose court gown, and said to Ruo with a long sigh, "If you're not dead, you should go and have a rest."

Ruo Min knew that the master wanted to be alone, so she went out without saying a word.

As soon as Ruomin leaves, Bingchen appears.

"Does Madam know that I'm coming? Why is there no one?"

"Yang Zhong is here, but he hasn't left yet." Ten Niang asked, "What are you going to do this time?"

"Something went wrong in Luocheng, and the empress disappeared." Bing Chen said, "Master told you to keep this clue for you."

Bingchen handed the white gauze to Shi Niang, Shi Niang stretched out her hand to take it, and said in response, "Li Jun has been uneasy for a long time, and one day in the palace is like celebrating the new year. Cooking plum wine, hoping that the pears will not be separated when they are ripe, and the chaos will not be separated." The lotus enters the curtain."

Ten Niang's complexion changed, and she continued to read, "Xiaoxiao came back in the evening rain, too hastily, and later I know that the world is short, and the envoy of Linjun came from the side, but I don't think about it or mourn."

"What do you need Ministry of Xin to do?" Ten Niang put away her handkerchief, "This matter is of great importance. Ministry of Xin will follow the emperor to avenge the empire and the empress. Ministry of Xin is at his disposal."

"The empress is not here, and the wife is the same as the vice queen. If anyone in the six palaces is restless, the lady will definitely punish him severely." Bing Chen finished speaking, not daring to look at Shi Niang, and returned to Liangshang.

"Sister Queen, wait for the opportunity, Ten Niang will definitely save you."
