Chapter 164 Empress Xu (2)
With this in mind, when the emperor came to see her, Concubine Luo found an opportunity to express her intention to transfer Ling Mengqi from Jinyiwei to the palace as an errand, and cried sadly: "' Poor parents in the world', the emperor is also a father, I beg the emperor to understand the concubine's love for his son, after all, he was born by my pregnancy in October, with my blood flowing on his body, how can others compare ? I beg the emperor to take pity on my concubine, please agree to this concubine..."

Although the emperor was too much to respond to these words, but looking at Concubine Luo's still pale face and the back of her hands with bulging veins, he thought that he was only about to lose her, and the heart of regaining her lost finally prevailed. Gritting her teeth, she agreed to her request, and after she finished speaking, someone arranged for Ling Mengqi to be transferred to the Jinwu Guard.

It's a pity that after Ling Mengqi found out about this matter, he would rather die than agree to it. If he really wanted to enter the Jinwu Guard, he would not have insisted on entering the Jinyi Guard under such great pressure, because of the opportunity of the Jinyi Guard to make meritorious service More, and more feared by others, what's more, if he doesn't know the true identity of Concubine Luo, it's all right. Now that he knows, he will naturally avoid it, so how could he agree to enter the palace as an official?
Concubine Luo Guifei told him about this, but he flatly rejected him. She also said that if she tried to control his life again, he would anger the emperor and beheaded by the emperor. Anyway, the emperor wanted to behead him. It's been two days.

Concubine Luo had no choice but to dismiss this idea, but made another request, asking Ling Mengqi to stay in the palace until she was better before leaving, and she would never make things difficult for him again.

Ling Mengqi saw that she had taken a big step back, so he also agreed to take a small step back, agreeing to be a job in the palace for a month, but at the same time, he also made a request to go back to the Duke's mansion, saying that he wanted to go back and tidy up. He looked at his personal items, but in fact he wanted to go back and see Lu Mingxuan so that she could feel at ease, so Ling Mengqi suddenly appeared in Rongtaiju today.

And Lu Mingxuan listened to the conversation between Ling Mengqi and Mrs. Lu, and knew that he would only stay in the palace for a month, and then he would return to Jinyiwei, so she was indeed at ease, although Jinwuwei was indeed more respectable than Jinyiwei, But for the current Ling Mengqi, how can being decent be as important as life?Naturally, try to stay as far away as possible from the palace.

As for whether there will be any changes in this month, she is not very worried. Since Concubine Luo Gui is awake, she is Ling Mengqi's greatest talisman. Can she just sit and watch her son have an accident?

So when everyone was not paying attention, Lu Mingxuan quietly blinked at Ling Mengqi, then nodded slightly, indicating that she understood what he meant, and asked him to take care of himself.

Ling Mengqi caught her gaze and saw that she understood that he came back for her this trip, and finally there was a smile in his eyes. He wanted to find a chance to talk to her alone, but he thought about the time. It was not allowed, so I had to give up, exchanged some pleasantries with Mrs. Lu and the others, and then left.

Ling Mengqi's return not only reassured Lu Mingxuan a lot, but also reassured the old Duke and Mrs. Lu a lot. Since the emperor didn't even vent his anger on Ling Mengqi, the instigator of this incident, although it is very possible Because of Concubine Luo's protection, naturally they will not be angry with them. After all, they didn't want to swim in this muddy water by themselves, but were dragged in by the emperor passively. If the emperor doesn't even have the capacity for this , Who else would dare to do such things for him in the future?

Therefore, Mrs. Lu was also in the mood to ask about the family banquet of the Dragon Boat Festival, and she called Mrs. Lu over and said, "Although such a thing happened in the palace, the emperor and the empress dowager don't like it, but we can't let us celebrate the festival." No? Just remember not to make too much publicity."

Mrs. Lu agreed, and said with a smile: "However, both Yili's mother and I had to go to the palace to pay pilgrimage that day, so I thought about setting the family banquet for the evening, and we will hold the banquet in the next year, and then let people sit together across the waterside pavilion." After leaving the stage, watching a play while having a drink, it will be a different feeling to watch a play under the lights, and no matter how lively the night is, as long as you close the door, you won't be afraid of people talking, I don't know what mother wants?"

Mrs. Lu thought for a while, nodded and smiled and said: "You have arranged it very well, so I will do as you said." After a pause, she said, "You remember to post to Mrs. Yan and their eighth family tomorrow. Madam, I invite them to come to our house to enjoy the flowers on May [-]th, and I saw that the peonies in the garden were all in bloom, and it happened to be a relaxing time for everyone.”

Mrs. Lu quickly agreed, and chatted with her for a while before curtseying and leaving.

Looking around, it's the Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of May. Mrs. Lu got up early in the morning and finished her makeup, so she hurried to Rongtaiju to serve Mrs. Lu. Liang ate half a slice of watermelon, and it was a bit useless by the fourth watch. She got up twice in a row, and once again on the fifth watch. She is an elderly person, how can she stand such a toss?When Mrs. Lu arrived, she couldn't wake up. Seeing this, Mrs. Lu couldn't help being anxious. She wanted to send someone to invite the imperial doctor, and she also wanted to send someone to the palace to ask for leave.

Madam Lu stopped her with a wave of her hand, saying that she was fine, but she just felt a little tired, and it would be fine if she took a rest, so Madam Lu went to the palace to meet the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, and then took leave of absence for her , It also saves time when there is no one in Dingguo's mansion, let people talk about it - Originally, on such a day, Dingguo's mansion still has Princess Fuhui who should also enter the palace to pay homage, but since Lu Mingzhu was sent to the palace a while ago After she left, she fell ill due to missing her daughter, and she still can't get out of bed. It was because she asked someone to hand over a sign early in the morning to sue her. That's why Mrs. Lu said that there would be 'no one at home' at that time.

Mrs. Lu is old and senior, and the old man has already sued him. If she doesn't go to the palace to worship, no one will talk about it, but Mrs. Lu is the current wife of Mrs. Ding. If she doesn't go, It was a bit unreasonable, and she also wanted to take this opportunity to talk to her sister, Empress Xu, so after listening to Mrs. Lu's words, she didn't insist anymore, and only asked people to pass on the news to Grandma Lu and Lu Mingfeng. Served Mrs. Lu, and then drove into the palace alone.

The Dragon Boat Festival is not a big festival like Zhengdan on New Year's Eve. It doesn't need all foreign wives to come to the palace to congratulate them, just some high-end ones. What's more, Concubine Luo's miscarriage happened in the palace. Everyone knows that the emperor I'm not in a good mood with the Queen Mother, and I don't want to touch this bad luck, so almost all the old ladies and grandmas like Mrs. Lu have taken leave, and those like Mrs. Lu also saluted the Queen Mother and Queen Mother Afterwards, they chatted and laughed a few words with them, and then left early.

Because of this, Mrs. Lu was able to go back to Fengyi Hall with Empress Xu early, and said some personal things between sisters that could not be said for outsiders.

Empress Xu is 37 or [-] years old, and she is about five or six points like Mrs. Lu. She wears a red and colorful embroidered golden phoenix court dress, and wears an exquisite golden phoenix with pearls in lace on her head. Holding a ruby ​​the size of a pigeon's egg in her mouth, it hangs down to her forehead, and between her head and head, she exudes a frightening luster, which makes her elegant, graceful and luxurious, showing the demeanor of the mother of a country.
