first class maid

Chapter 573
"Go, solve that little eunuch's secret, don't make people suspicious, I don't want him to do bad things." Liu Xinmei watched the little eunuch's leaving back and ordered in a cold voice.

"Yes."

Only then did Liu Xinmei hold Bai He's hand again and walked out of this dark and inconspicuous place gracefully. As long as the emperor hadn't met Xun Zhen, he probably wouldn't know about her tricks. Today is New Year's Eve, and tomorrow will be On the first day of the lunar new year, the emperor had to perform a series of ceremonies such as offering sacrifices to heaven, holding family banquets, offering sacrifices to ancestors, etc., and had no time to go to Xun Zhen for a secret meeting.

"Your Majesty, those people are imprisoned in the sky prison, I'm afraid that sooner or later it will spoil your empress's affairs." Bai He said in a low voice.

"My palace knows it, and I'm thinking of a way to solve it properly. It's better for someone to inform grandpa of the news first." Liu Xinmei said, seeing the palace servants from Hualong Palace come out, she just shut up, and walked in with her head held high as they bowed their hands and bowed their heads. palace gate.

As soon as he entered the hall, he could smell the aroma of apples floating on the huge plate beside him, and Sun Datong was instructing the little Sula eunuch to wipe the treasures on the Duobaoge, and deliberately glanced at Sun Datong's appearance. As usual, the little eunuch wasn't lying.

"Eunuch Sun."

As soon as Sun Datong heard the voice, he turned around and saluted, "Yo, this old slave's eyesight is not good, I didn't see the lady coming in, please don't care about this old slave."

Liu Xinmei smiled and said: "Eunuch Sun is a celebrity around the emperor, how can I punish you? Where is the emperor?"

"In the inner hall, the old slave went in to inform the empress." Sun Datong waved his whisk and went in with a smile.

Liu Xinmei sneered, this pretentious old thing will kill him sooner or later, he stood outside patiently waiting for the pass, after a while, Sun Datong lifted the bright yellow curtain with black borders and said: "The emperor announced that the empress will go in .”

Only then did Liu Xinmei walk solemnly, and saw Yu Wenhong wearing a sky-blue dragon robe and a purple gold dragon crown, sitting behind the imperial case, writing the word "Fu" with a brush, so she went forward and bowed. He said with a smile: "The concubine came to pay his respects to the emperor."

Yu Wenhong didn't raise his head, "Get up."

Liu Xinmei peeked at him carefully, as if she was not dissatisfied with her, if he knew what she did, he would have scolded her a long time ago, how could he be so calm?Is what the little eunuch said believable after all?This time my heart was really flustered. "The emperor's handwriting is really good. The concubine dared to ask the emperor to give the concubine a blessing word to paste it in Guiqi Palace, so that he will be blessed for a year."

Yu Wenhong squinted at her, "What's so difficult about it?" Pulled a piece of square red paper, waved a brush on it, and after a while, a plump blessing character flying like dragons and phoenixes appeared on the paper, and handed it to Liu Xinmei.

Liu Xinmei stretched out both hands to take it with joy on her face. I don't know if there was one party who failed to hand it over or the other party failed to receive it. I saw the red paper with the word "Fu" falling from between the fingers of the two of them...

Liu Xinmei's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly squatted down to pick it up, "Damn my concubine, I didn't receive the emperor's reward well."

Yu Wenhong threw down the brush, sat on the dragon chair, and stared at Liu Xinmei. There was suspicion, confusion, and a trace of Liu Xinmei's inexplicable feeling in his eyes. He squeezed the corner of the word "Fu" in his hand, Touching his face with his hands, he said anxiously: "Your Majesty, is there something dirty on this concubine's face?"

But Yu Wenhong didn't answer, he looked at her for a long while, took a sip of tea from the tea bowl painted in the shape of a bright yellow dragon, "Concubine Chen, is there anything you have kept from me?"

Liu Xinmei originally wanted to take the opportunity to test whether the emperor had gone to see Xun Zhen, but how could she know that she heard this nonsensical remark, but when she thought of the little eunuch's words, she immediately understood where did these words come from?I knew it, but my face knelt down in panic and said: "Did the emperor listen to someone's slander to hurt the concubine? Since the day the concubine was carried into the East Palace by the eight-carried sedan chair, the emperor has been on her mind, and she has no second thoughts. , how can you do something that the emperor doesn't like behind your back?"

Yu Wenhong looked at her eagerly defending, and sneered in his heart, but he said calmly on his face: "I'm just asking casually, it's fine if you don't, Concubine Chen, you are the granddaughter of Liu Xiang, and Liu Xiang is also the elder of the two dynasties. The late emperor relied heavily on him when he was in power, and since I ascended the throne, I have also favored the Liu family a lot, so don't do anything that displeases me."

"The concubine obeys the order." Only then did Liu Xinmei dare to stand up, her thoughts turned, and she said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, Director Xun is lonely outside the palace, why not bring him back to the palace to celebrate the new year. how?"

Yu Wenhong looked at her sharply for an instant, "Are you sincere?"

"Of course, the concubine's heart is as bright as the sun and the moon. Although Director Xun has the name of a palace maid, she is actually the concubine's sister. The concubine is willing to live with her in peace. Besides, she has been out of the palace for so long. , I haven't seen the emperor for so long, I will miss him in my heart, won't I? Going back to the palace for a year should be fine for your health."

Yu Wenhong then said with a look of melancholy: "You don't even mention that I don't even remember that she has been out of the palace for so long. Concubine Chen, you have a heart, but I am busy with work, so I didn't have time to see her. I was sent to see her." Her people came back to report, she seems to have annoyed me." That expression was indeed somewhat unhappy.

Liu Xinmei has been observing his face very carefully. The emperor's face does not seem to be fake, which eased the doubts about the meaning of the little eunuch's words. It seems that he is too ignorant, "Director Xun is too young to leave The emperor is naturally in a depressed mood, so don't bother with her..." Seeing Yu Wenhong chuckle suddenly, he was startled, and the next words he wanted to show generosity stuck in his throat.

Yu Wenhong put away his smile, "Concubine Chen, what kind of medicine did you take wrongly today? If I remember correctly, you and Xun Zhen seem to have been at odds, and you can't help but wonder what your intentions are when you say these words? "

Liu Xinmei's heart was beating wildly by Yu Wenhong's words today. What does he mean by...?Do you suspect that she sent someone to assassinate Xun Zhen?Kneeling down for the third time, he said: "Your Majesty, my concubine really has no bad intentions, but she and Xun Zhen were young when they were children, so they unconsciously said a few good words for her. Your Majesty, please learn from me."

"Concubine Chen, I see that you are like a frightened bird today. You are startled for a while. Turn around and ask Doctor Wen to prescribe you a reassurance pill to eat. Don't talk nonsense on the first day of the new year tomorrow." Yu Wenhong said.
