The queen mother is charming

Chapter 166 The Empress Dowager She Is That Person's Descendant
She touched the hands of the two girls, which were as cold as snow.

Looking at the past, the former slender fingers were soaked in snow water, and they had chilblains, swollen like something, and pus was oozing out.

Mu Qingchao felt distressed and rubbed them with his hands.

"Does it hurt?"

The two servant girls had already stood up at this time, and when they heard Mu Qingchao's question, they shook their heads again and again: "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt, it hurts at the beginning, and it will be fine after you get used to it."

"It's you, Queen Mother..."

Chun Ya looked at Mu Qingchao who was so skinny that his bones were gone.

"I heard that the queen mother often can't eat? What's the matter?"

"It's nothing, my appetite is indeed not very good these days, but it's not a big deal."

"What do you mean it's not a big deal?" Chun Ya said anxiously, "People are like iron and rice is steel, so what if you can't eat?"

"But the ones made by others are not to the Queen Mother's taste? The slaves are going to make it for the Queen Mother."

When Mu Qingchao heard this, he also remembered: "Speaking of which, you have been thinking about the Suckling Pigeon Tang Ai's house for a long time."

It's rare that I am in a good mood today, and my appetite has also improved, so I really feel greedy.

Chunya was very happy when she heard that the Queen Mother wanted to eat the dishes she made.

"Okay, okay, Queen Mother, please wait, and this servant will do it for you."

"Is it too tired, why don't you take a break and do it again?"

"I won't be tired. This servant girl likes to cook food for the queen mother." Chun Ya went to the kitchen with a smile on her face.

At this time, Shen Muchi was standing outside the Chaoyun Palace, just in time to see all kinds of things in the palace.

Eunuch Lu was standing next to him, seeing the corners of his mouth slightly raised, obviously he was in a good mood.

At this time, he wanted to ask for credit, and said from the side: "These two girls are really caring, and they will serve the Queen Mother in the future, so Your Majesty can rest assured."

Eunuch Lu spoke according to his thoughts, making Shen Muchi even happier.

"I knew that she was just such a person." Shen Muchi said: "She looks coquettish, like a cat, throwing temper tantrums when she doesn't get what she wants at all."

He said disgusting words, but he couldn't hide the smile on his face.

"Hey, little girl, isn't it all like this? The queen mother has the same flowers, so she should be more delicate."

Shen Muchi laughed, having seen enough, turned around and went back to Fulin Hall.

Halfway through, I remembered again.

"Pass down the order and put the others back into the Chaoyun Palace. Everything in the Chaoyun Palace is as usual. Those who she was not used to before will all be withdrawn."

"Yes."

The journey from Daoqinghe to Jinling was not too far away, so Gao Xian hurried on, and when he arrived at Qinghe, it was just before New Year's Eve.

The county palace did not expect such a special guest to come today.

The current old county king is the seventh son of the former Prince Dun. I heard that he was also a brilliant man when he was young.

It was very worthy of the great ancestors at that time.

But later, without knowing what happened, he suddenly resigned and retired to the north of Qinghe, guarding a small county, getting married and having children for decades.

Up to now, there are still people in Jinling City who are sighing, saying that if the King of Qinghe County stayed in Jinling, he would be regarded as a generation of arrogance, and he might not be much better than the current King Wu'an.

It's a pity, after all, the hero was short of breath.

Gao Xian had also heard about Qinghe County King before, but felt that the rumors were probably unreliable. If it was such an extraordinary person, how could he live in such a remote place without wanting to become famous? .

Probably because Jiang Lang was exhausted, and he did this on purpose for fear of falling into the public eye.

But when Gao Xian saw the county king himself, he realized that the rumors were true.

Counting his age, the King of Qinghe County should be over 50 now, but he walks like a dragon and a tiger, even though his beard and hair are gray, he can still see his spirit shining.

One can imagine how handsome he was when he was young.

Prince Qinghe was also very kind to the younger generation, smiling at Gao Xian with kind eyes.

He asked, "Little friend suddenly visited, why?"

"It was entrusted by Concubine Rong in the palace to send something to the county king."

Gao Xian said, and handed over the letter in his arms.

He could see that the prince of the county seemed to fluctuate when he heard the words "Concubine Rong Gui", but soon became calm again. Gao Xian was not sure if he had read it wrong.

"Your concubine..." the county king said.

"How is she now? Is she all right?"

"Jun Wang, the imperial concubine...she is already dead." Gao Xian said.

"died?"

This time, Gao Xian could clearly see that there was shock on his face.

But he disguised it very well, as if it was not convenient for him to reveal these emotions to others.

"Ah..." At this time, the king of the county even laughed twice: "This king has not been to Jinling for a long time, and he has never even heard of these things. "

"Yes...it was the imperial concubine who died bleakly, and His Majesty didn't even announce it to the world." Gao Xian said.

"This letter is the last relic of the imperial concubine. She entrusted the younger generation to deliver it to the county king."

"Is it……"

The king of the county glanced at the letter in Gao Xian's hand, the hand that took the letter seemed to be trembling.

But he quickly took the letter back and hid his trembling hands behind his back so that no one could see it.

"Then thank you little friend." He said.

"It's getting late, little friend, do you have a place to stay? Why don't you just rest in my county mansion, the king will ask someone to clean up an empty room for you."

"Yes... yes, thank you, the Duke." Gao Xian said.

The county king just had a brief exchange of greetings with him, and told his servants how to entertain him, and then he went back to his room.

Gao Xian originally wanted to ask about the contents of the letter. He respected Concubine Rong and had traveled a long distance, but he had never opened the envelope.

He always felt that since it was a letter to King Qinghe, it would naturally have to be opened by King Qinghe himself.

When the time comes, you'll know if you don't ask.

Unexpectedly, the county king took the letter and didn't even look at it.

"What a strange person..." Gao Xian couldn't help sighing.

But he didn't know that, in a place he couldn't see, Prince Qinghe sat alone facing the lamp for a long time with the letter.

He didn't come back to his senses until the princess of the county put a piece of clothing on him.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late, let's go to bed earlier." Princess Song, the Princess of the County, sat beside the Prince of Qinghe.

The princess of the county doesn't look very beautiful. In terms of appearance, she is inferior to the prince of Qinghe, but she is more dignified. She is dressed in a lotus blue plum pattern robe, which makes her gentle and generous.

Even the way she put clothes on Prince Qinghe was so gentle.

"Did something happen?" the princess asked.

"It's Jing Rong who has the news." The king of the county said, he has never hidden anything from the concubine of the county.

It is well known that the princess of the county is generous and tolerant, and everyone knows that she has a gentle temperament. No matter what the prince of Qinghe has said to her these years, she is not angry.

So many things, Qinghe County King is willing to talk to the County Princess.

"Jing Rong? Concubine Rong? What's the matter with her?"

"Jing Rong is dead." Duke Qinghe didn't know what state of mind he was in when he said these four words, but he added a sentence at the end: "This king just didn't expect that this matter would be related to that person."
