The world is heavy and late

Chapter 45 Start

When Xia Qing returned to Gongzhengsi, he thought: The fifteenth day is really a good solar term for a full moon.

Well, whether it's the fifteenth day of August or the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

So when she returned to Gong Zhengsi, she exuded joy all over her body.

Gu Weiyun looked at Xia Qing who was completely different from the morning, and said with a smile: "Go to see Mr. Xu?"

Xia Qing turned her head and looked around, then smiled and winked at Gu Weiyun.

Gu Weiyun slightly pursed her lips and smiled, Xia Qing thought it was so beautiful when she saw it, if she were the emperor, she would marry such a woman, and she would hug her every night when she slept.

Gu Weiyun was a little worried in her heart, after all, she hadn't been through Xia Qing's decades, so she always felt that the maid was not a good home after all.

But thinking that this moment is not the time and place to talk, it is better to wait until later.

The two chatted for a while before starting to talk about business. Xia Qing thought for a while and said, "Where do you think it is?"

Gu Weiyun and Xia Qing looked at each other for a while and whispered together: "East Palace."

The two laughed when they saw the same answer, and then Xia Qing said: "I don't think His Royal Highness has come to play with us these few days because of this."

After finishing speaking, Xia Qing added: "He is too lively and headstrong."

Gu Weiyun said with some disapproval: "His Royal Highness is kind, and he treats people sincerely and openly."

Xia Qing curled her lips and said in her heart: This is really Aiwujiwu.But he didn't object to what Gu Weiyun said.

Xia Qing said: "Master Xu said that these two places must pass through the Taiye Pond. I will ask Aunt Niu to adjust it for us tomorrow."

After thinking for a while, she said, "Aunt Niu is a lover of money, you have to pay for it."

Gu Weiyun looked at Xia Qing's serious face and smiled, wondering if there are still some money fans?
So she dragged Xia Qing into the house, and then dug out an underwear from her cage.Put it in Xia Qing's hand and said: "It's not easy to bring too much money into the palace, so my mother sewed a dress for me overnight and hid a few gold leaves."

After finishing speaking, she was a little sad. It was the first time she had been away from home for so long, and she really missed them a little.

Xia Qing touched the dress and thought: Are there any hidden pieces?
Xia Qing thought for a while and said, "Not too much, one slice is enough, I'll go get some pastries, it's almost ready."

Gu Weiyun nodded, but he was still a little uneasy, so he said: "If we met there by chance, His Majesty would be able to tell at a glance. Then..."

Xia Qing thought for a while and said, "It's really not good, it will be regarded as someone with a heart."

She thinks that although it is your wish, everyone expects all the results to bloom naturally. Not to mention that being too deliberate will make people feel uncomfortable. A suspicious person like the emperor will still be suspicious, fearing that it will be self-defeating.

So he said: "But we must do it. The emperor has not heard from him for more than 20 days. I'm afraid he has forgotten, or he really doesn't want to choose a concubine."

Xia Qing looked at Gu Weiyun in front of him and said, "But whether it's you or me, I have to do it."

Gu Weiyun nodded but still frowned.

Xia Qing said: "Why don't we fight poison with poison first."

Gu Weiyun didn't understand, so he asked, "How to fight poison with poison?"

Xia Qing said: "Since we appear there, we will be considered to be close on purpose, so why don't we just let the emperor hear things we usually don't say in front of him without showing our face? It's just right for the king's suspicious character."

Gu Weiyun understood, and she said with some difficulty: "You mean, we, on the emperor's only way, said that I want to be a queen..."

Xia Qing said: "Not only that, but also praise you for being beautiful, and complain that others have the opportunity to get close to you but you don't. Of course, I will say all these things."

Gu Weiyun's face turned red when he heard it, and he covered his face with his hands and said, "This, this, this, it's really..."

Xia Qing said: "Okay, don't talk about it, even if the emperor doesn't really choose a concubine, listen to what we say before you meet again, the emperor will feel much less uncomfortable."

Thinking of this, Xia Qing pulled Gu Weiyun's hand seriously and said: "I know that you will be embarrassed if you do this, and I also know that you don't like to reveal these things. But we have to do this to have the opportunity to do what we want matter."

Gu Weiyun's mind also stabilized a little bit, she thought of her long-standing ambition, thought of many things, and finally became serious, and nodded slightly to Xia Qing.

What Xia Qing said is correct, so men and women may feel embarrassed and uncomfortable because of this deliberation, but she and Xia Qing both have more important things to do, this is only the first step, and it must be taken no matter what. past.

And she believed that the choice of concubine in the emperor's heart was not only for the love between men and women, but for more important things.

The next day, Xia Qing went to the catering department and bought some snacks.

Don't underestimate these snacks. If it is not related to the Secretary of Food, or the eunuchs and eunuchs above the rank of female envoys, they will not be able to buy snacks at all. They are still better dim sum. If not, all the harem will come to buy them. Wouldn't the Secretary of Food be exhausted? .

Now the cakes are all handmade, one point for the harem, one point for important female officials and eunuchs, and some have to be prepared for the emperor. Of course, the secretary of food can get some regardless of grade, and there are not many others.

In Gongzhengsi, Aunt Niu saw Xia Qing coming, and saw the things in her hand, her eyes flickered.

She thought to herself, she is naturally happy for Xia Qing to come, this is also a generous master, and this snack, other people can't always be filial.

Sure enough, Xia Qing lived up to Aunt Niu's high expectations, and when she came up, she greeted Aunt Niu, then put the snacks in her hand and said: "I think the weather is good today, so I went to the catering department to get some snacks, thinking about it." I didn’t see my aunt last fifteen, so I have to come and see her today.”

When Aunt Niu saw the dim sum in hand, her complexion became even better, but she still said politely: "Miss Xia came as soon as she came, why are you so polite."

Xia Qing slandered in her heart that if you don't want it, then return it to me, but she still said sweetly: "I just hope that my aunt won't dislike you."

After finishing speaking, he didn't say what he was doing and started to chat with Aunt Niu.

It wasn't until Aunt Niu became impatient that Xia Qing said: "Auntie also knows that Miss Gu and I have always been in the most remote yard, and it takes a long time to go back and forth every day, and I feel a little tired recently. , thinking about whether I can ask my aunt to change the yard for us to clean."

Aunt Niu breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thought that she finally asked, otherwise she would not be able to bear it anymore.

So he said: "Everyone has made a decision, I'm afraid it's not easy to change."

Xia Qing said: "Of course I know that it will be difficult to exchange, but isn't this because Aunt Niu is generous and upright, so I came to beg Aunt Niu?"

Aunt Niu said, "Then I wonder if Miss Xia Qing wants to go somewhere?"

Xia Qing: "I heard that Taiye Pond has a very beautiful view. During the previous dynasty, many emperors and concubines liked to visit there. I have been in the palace for almost a year, and I don't have a chance to see it. I feel a little regretful."

Aunt Niu felt a little strange, she thought that Xia Qing came here because she wanted to transfer them to some imperial place, but she didn't expect it to be Taiye Pond.

Aunt Niu felt that they were making a big fuss, probably because she felt that the comfort house was too far away, and she wanted to change the location, it would not be difficult.

In fact, if she wanted to be transferred to Yuqian, Aunt Niu might be in a dilemma for a while, because she also took money from others.But if it is Taiyechi, it is not difficult, but...

Of course, Aunt Niu still wanted to take Joe's for a while, but Xia Qing didn't want to see it, so she curled her lips in her heart, thinking that that's why I had tortured her for so long.

So she directly grabbed Aunt Niu and said, "Please help us first, we really feel that we can't go on."

As he spoke, he directly stuffed the warm gold leaf into Aunt Niu's hand.

Aunt Niu immediately laughed when she saw the golden one, and stretched out her hand to shake it off. Xia Qing looked speechless and tired, she was really tired, why did she come here.

Seeing Aunt Niu finish these series of things, Xia Qing couldn't bear it anymore, and asked, "Then Aunt Niu, our matter..."

Aunt Niu suddenly didn't have the excuse just now: "I also know, how can you bear this matter because you are so thin and weak. Auntie will make arrangements for you tomorrow, just wait."

Xia Qing: ...a perfect smile. "That aunt, I'll go back first. It's so bad to see."

Aunt Niu happily sent Xia Qing out of the house. Xia Qing thought that as long as you gave Aunt Niu enough money, she would crawl and send you back.
