Chapter 101

Going to the theater?

What show are you watching?

Wen Xi was a little confused, moved his lips, and wanted to ask what show he was watching, but his head was groggy, and huge tiredness swept over him. His eyelids held out for a few breaths, but they couldn't hold them anymore. He slowly closed them and fell asleep completely. .

After a while, I saw Nanny Gui walking in hastily.

The old grandma’s legs are fine, how can she still have the tragic condition of breaking her legs a few days ago?

Compared to Queen Qi who was calm and composed, Aunt Gui looked much more nervous.

Glancing at Wen Xi, who was sleeping unconsciously, she couldn't help but said in a broken voice: "Empress, I can just follow Master Fanqing to Da Ci'en Temple. Why do you need to take risks yourself?"

"If Xiao Fu is really in Da Ci'en. Temple, I want to meet her for a while." Empress Qi said quietly: "It's difficult for her to remain anonymous for so many years."

Aunt Gui spat: "I knew this when she was a girl. She is a evil-hearted person. When she returned to Shangjing from Liangzhou, she was sent to Daci'en Temple because of the emperor's liking. You went to accompany her again and again, but she never thought of you. She was just a white-eyed wolf

! Grandma cursed a few words but still couldn't understand her hatred. Thinking of Grandma Zhu, her hatred became even deeper.

She gritted her teeth and said, "My dear, is Aunt Zhu really a member of Princess Yunhua?"

Empress Qi pondered for a long time and said, "Aunt Zhu is not a person of Xiao Fu, but a person of Prince Qiyuan. Can you please return the favor?" I remember that before Aunt Zhu came to Qi's house, Auntie once mentioned that Aunt Zhu's sister also served in the palace. "

How could I not remember?" Aunt Gui replied, "I only remember that." Madam said that her sister had already passed away before Aunt Zhu entered the palace?"

Queen Qi said "Yes": "Her sister was sold to a family named Zhou by her parents when she was six years old. It was just that after the Zhou family gave birth to their own child, she was sold to the East Palace as an embroiderer. She was lucky enough to fall into the eyes of the late Queen, and later became Prince Qiyuan's wet nurse. Missing her little sister at home, the late Queen took pity on her, so she found her little sister and brought her into the palace. "

Mother Gui said, "Mother Zhu still has relatives in her hometown. Who knows about her relationship with Qi. Prince Yuan's wet nurse actually has this kind of relationship. No matter how much she cares about her eldest sister, no matter how grateful she is to Prince Qiyuan, she should not betray you! Her dignity in the palace was given to you all these years. Isn't it good enough for her?"

Empress Qi said with a smile: "Mom, don't be angry. Since she belongs to Prince Qiyuan, she naturally hates me to the core. It is expected that I will join forces with Xiao Fu. I owe Xiao Yan a favor. If I hadn't been reminded by him, how would I have known that there was a secret chess piece of Xiao Fu's hidden in Kunning Palace? "

In addition to Granny Zhu, there is another person who may also be Xiao Fu's chess piece.

Aunt Gui looked at the girl who was sleeping on the couch, and said hesitantly: "Mother, is Princess Qingxi really not that child?"

After hearing this, Empress Qi followed Aunt Gui's gaze and looked at Wenxi before feeding her. The bowl of medicine was filled with a drug, and the girl would not wake up for twelve hours.

"Master Fan Qing has already told me that this child was arranged by Xiao Fu to be with me. As for whether she is my child, Master Fan Qing doesn't know."

Empress Qi slowly glanced at Wen Xi's brows . , said: "But I know that she is indeed not that child."

Queen Qi only dared to believe Xiao Yan's words. I was still a bit doubtful that Wen Xi was not that child. It wasn't until Wen Xi deliberately fell ill and forced her to attack the girl from the Rong family that Queen Qi realized that she was really not that child.

"Since Wenxi is not a little princess, why didn't His Highness the Crown Prince let Sun Yuanshi re-test her blood?" Aunt Gui didn't understand, "Now that she has become the princess of Qingxi, the emperor will know the truth one day and must investigate. Aren't the empress and the prince guilty of bullying the emperor?"

Queen Qi lowered her eyes.

Xiao Yan only revealed that Wen Xi was a fake little princess, but he still refused to say who the child was, as if he was wary of her.

Not only be wary of her, but also be wary of the emperor.

When she sent Aunt Gui to get the medicine, Xiao Yan never mentioned who the medicine would be used on. It wasn't until the night after returning from the Imperial Ancestral Temple that he heard that he had a high fever in the river, then he sent someone to Kunning Palace to tell her to use the medicine on the girl from the Rong family.

It seemed as if she had already guessed that Wen Xi would force her to send Rong Shu away.

Xiao Yan asked her to recognize Wenxi and made Wenxi the princess of Qingxi County with great fanfare.

I originally thought it was to make Wen Xi, Aunt Zhu and even Xiao Fu believe that she had fallen into the trap, so as to lure the turtle into the urn.

But is that all?

If this is the case, he should tell who the child is so that she can let go of her guard against him and do her best to cooperate with him.

He refused to say that there was another possibility.

That is, once she recognizes the child, the child will be in danger, and this danger comes from the palace.

This is why he is wary of her and the emperor.

Queen Qi lowered her eyes and stared at the jade Buddha beads in her hand. After a long time, she raised her eyes to look at Aunt Gui and said, "Auntie, before going to Daci'en Temple, I have one more place to go."

"Where do you want to go, the empress? " ?"

Queen Qi said: "East Palace, I want to go to the East Palace to take a look."

The words Queen Qi said just now made her confused. Now she heard Queen Qi said that she wanted to go to the East Palace. Even more confused,

she couldn't help but ask: "Why are you going to the East Palace?"

"I want to verify something." Queen Qi pulled down her sleeves, covered the jade Buddha bracelet, and said softly: "Mommy, I'm watching here. Now, I'm going to visit Qianqing Palace."

Dayin officials have one and a half days of annual leave, and they don't have to go on duty until after the Lantern Festival.

On the Lantern Festival, the monks of Daci'en Temple will perform another great ritual in the Ancestral Temple. Master Fanqing, as the abbot of Dayinguo Temple, naturally has to observe the end of the Shangyuan Festival in the Ancestral Temple.

In the Qianqing Palace, Queen Qi asked Emperor Jiayou to ask Master Fanqing to go to Daci'en Temple with her on the grounds that Wen Xi was possessed by an evil spirit.

"The child has never recovered since she came back from the Ancestral Temple. I have no choice but to take her to Da Ci'en Temple in person." Empress Qi said worriedly: "Master Fanqing's Dharma is the most profound. With him by his side, I can feel at ease." Some."

Emperor Jiayou had heard about the evil spirits in the stream a few days ago and went to see it himself.

He always didn't believe this, but Queen Qi insisted on going, so he let her go. He said "Huh" and said, "Ask the envoy Sun Yuan to follow."

Queen Qi refused, "The Emperor's body is accustomed to

Emperor Jiayou paused, looked at Queen Qi, and said, "Then let Sun Yuanshi's grandson accompany him."

Queen Qi then agreed and stood up to leave . , sent someone to prepare the carriage.

As soon as the carriage with the ram's horn palace lanterns left the palace, Emperor Jiayou summoned Gui Zhong: "Take a group of people to follow the queen, and remember to protect the queen's safety."

Empress Qi did not know that Emperor Jiayou sent Gui Zhong Zhong followed her, and as soon as the carriage drove out of the palace gate, he ordered someone to take a detour to the East Palace.

Half an hour later, the carriage stopped at the main entrance of the East Palace.

Zhuiyun came to open the door in person and saw a group of women in palace attire standing outside. He hurriedly saluted and said: "His Royal Highness is not in the East Palace. If there is something wrong with some of the nuns, I will convey it to you after His Highness returns."

Aunt Gui said: "We are here to deliver some good luck fruits from the palace to His Highness on the orders of the Queen. We stopped by to ask Mr. Zhu if the servants in the East Palace are serving His Highness with their intentions."

Zhui Yun said . Although I had never met Aunt Gui, I guessed who she was by the tone of her voice, and subconsciously glanced at the maids bowing behind her.

"Aunt Gui, please come in." Zhuiyun stepped aside respectfully, "Aunt Zhujun is in Meilin now. I will send someone to invite her."

Auntie Gui's purpose is not to meet Zhujun, but to borrow Zhujun's favor . It was just a cover, so he waved his hand and said: "No need to go to such trouble, I will go directly to find her." After saying that, he led several maids behind him to Merlin.

Zhuiyun said "Okay", then looked at a palace maid behind Aunt Gui, paused, and raised her heels.

Halfway through the journey, I suddenly saw the person in front stopped and looked up again.

It turned out that it was Zhu Jun and Lan Xuan who had returned from Meilin.

The two of them were carrying a copper hand stove and were slowly walking up the corridor surrounded by a young lady wearing a royal blue cloak. The girl was holding a pile of plum branches, half of her face was covered by the hood, only her bright red lips and small chin were exposed.

I don't know what Lan Xuan beside her said, but the little lady suddenly turned her head and smiled. The cold wind blew open the hood that blocked half of her face, completely revealing her bright hibiscus face like spring flowers and autumn moon.

Aunt Gui caught a glimpse of those charming peach blossom eyes like the spring tide supporting the moon, her hand holding the box trembled slightly, and she subconsciously looked at the person behind her.

Queen Qi looked at Rong Shu blankly.

She had seen this girl.

That day at the city gate, she was leaving the city and the girl was entering the city. They met each other across the white wind and snow.

At that time, there was a strange and indescribable feeling in her heart.

At this time, that feeling came over me again.

She is the child.

The prince indeed hid her here.

That's right, since he was on guard against everyone, how could he ask her to take risks in Minglu Yuan just to lure Xiao Fu out?

Queen Qi disguised herself as a palace maid and came in with Nanny Gui, intending to take a quick look and then leave.

But now that she really saw her, she didn't want to leave.

Seeing that the girl was about to turn into the Moon Cave Gate of Zichen Palace, Queen Qi pushed aside the maid standing in front, picked up her skirt and walked towards her.

Shiiyun, who had been following them, saw this and quickly stepped forward to stop her: "Queen, please stay! Your Highness ordered me to hand over something to you."

Listening to this tone, it seemed that he had recognized her a long time ago. She is average.

Queen Qi slowed down her steps, looked back at Zhuiyun, and said, "The prince knows that I will come?"

"His Royal Highness, the Taoist Empress, has a sharp eye. After leaving the palace, she will definitely come to the East Palace to find out. She then told me, if you come, I'll give you this bead." Zhuiyun took out a jade bead strung on a red string from his sleeve and said, "This is what Miss Rong personally handed over to His Highness. His Highness said that Miss Rong only wanted to give this jade bead to you. The jade is returned to Zhao intact."

When Zhui Yun took out the jade bead, Queen Qi's smooth nails suddenly pierced her palm, but she seemed not to notice it and just stared at the familiar jade bead.

"Does she know that this jade bead fell from my bracelet?" she asked.

Zhui Yun smiled and said, "I don't know, His Highness is in Minglu Courtyard now. Why don't you go to Minglu Courtyard and ask His Highness in person?"

Xiao Yan didn't want her to see the child.

Queen Qi looked at the smiling young man in front of her, and said in a cold voice: "Why do I need to ask the prince? The owner of this jade bead is here, can't I just ask her? What? You still have to ask her?" Are you going to stop me?"

Zhuiyun knelt down in the snow, held up the jade beads in his hands, and said as if he were dead, "I'm sorry, I don't dare to stop you, but if you want to go, please stay young. Step over the corpse! After all, the prince’s life will not be saved if he comes back!”

Queen Qi chuckled.

If she killed someone in the East Palace today, I'm afraid she wouldn't even be able to get out of the city gate, let alone go to Da Ci'en Temple to see Xiao Fu.

The prince has been wary of her.

At this moment, Queen Qi finally figured out why Xiao Yan wanted to guard against her and the emperor.

If the emperor knew that the girl he wanted to marry was that child...

Queen Qi's heart tightened and she turned her eyes to look at the majestic palace in the distance.

Shaoqing, she slowly exhaled and said: "Aunt Gui, please send the lucky fruit over in person. Tongzhu Jundao said that this is made in the imperial kitchen, using the same recipe as before. Tell her to be more careful and ask first. I know that there are some foods that the girl in the Rong family cannot eat."

Aunt Gui knew that Queen Qi was afraid that the girl was allergic to certain foods. In the past, a child in the Qi family almost developed an allergy after eating peanuts. The son died.

"Yes, I will definitely explain it to you." Aunt Gui led the two maids over.

Queen Qi stood in the wind and snow, her face gradually darkening.

How dare he ask to marry her?

How dare?

Queen Qi glanced at Zhui Yun.

Noticing Queen Qi's ice-knife-like gaze, Zhuiyun was not afraid and kept raising her hand to hold the jade bead high.

Empress Qi stepped forward to take the bead and said in a cold voice: "I have never been to the East Palace today. Do you hear me clearly?"

Zhui Yun knocked his forehead heavily on the snow and said: "I obey, little one!"

The fingertips The jade bead was stained with some snow foam and was cold. Empress Qi rubbed the bead and said, "Does she really don't want this jade bead anymore?"

Zhui Yun raised his head slightly and said with a smile, "Yes. , Miss Rong wants to go to Datong Mansion. At the moment, she is just waiting for Lady Shen in the East Palace. When Lady Shen arrives in Beijing, His Highness will send them to Datong. Miss Rong has bought a horse ranch in Datong Mansion and wants to raise it for Dayin. We need some good horses to solve the plight of the soldiers at the border who are short of horses."

After saying this, Zhui Yun paused and said, "His Royal Highness asked the young lady to tell her that Miss Rong also knew about Yuzhuzi on New Year's Eve. Before that, she had always thought that she was a child of the Rong family. His Highness said that Miss Rong had a deep relationship with Mrs. Shen and was unwilling to change her relationship with Mrs. Shen. "

Ms. Shen? "

Empress Qi thought of the secret book she had just seen in the carriage, and realized that the "Ms. Shen" mentioned by Zhui Yun was the first wife of Marquis Chengan, Shen Yizhen.

But now that Shen Yizhen and Rong Xun have reconciled, even the child has left the Rong family and is no longer part of the Rong family.

Remembering the rumors she had heard inadvertently, Queen Qi's hand holding the jade beads trembled slightly.

Because her birth date did not belong to her at all, she was regarded as unlucky as soon as she was born. She was forced to leave Beijing at the age of four and stayed away for nine years.

Her grandmother hated her, and her father, whom she longed for, doted on his concubines, destroyed his wife, and treated her indifferently.

In such a big Rong family, Shen Yizhen was the only one who really treated her well.

How much had her child suffered? She would rather bear the name of unfilial piety than give up her father's surname!
