Queen is fearless

Chapter 167 On the way back to the palace
"We're almost in the capital. How does the empress feel about traveling all the way?" Inside the carriage, the empress dowager asked with concern after looking at Gu Jinzhi's expression.

"Thank you, Empress Mother, for your concern. My son is fine. Looking at his expression, isn't he all right?"

Smiling and speaking, Gu Jinzhi stretched out her hand to caress her face, her complexion was indeed good.

Although it was exhausting, Zhou Jing had ordered, so the speed of the convoy was not fast.

In addition, the carriage she was sitting in was the best decorated in the whole team. She rested well, ate and drank well, and looked natural.

When resting, Zhou Jing will accompany her and walk up and down the small road near Tantan, but she can't do some more 'exciting' things like when she came here.

"Well, the queen's complexion is really good. When you return to the capital, no matter who is responsible for driving the carriage for you, or who is waiting by your side, you should be rewarded."

Smiling and nodding, the Empress Dowager's eyes shifted from Gu Jinzhi to Zhou Jing.

"After returning to the palace, the emperor will have to work hard." It has been several months since he left the capital, although there will be booklets, which are often sent to the palace, but there are still a lot of things in the capital.

"It's not hard work, it's just that I'm a little busier than usual." Thinking of this, Zhou Jing looked at Gu Jinzhi, "It's just that, the queen is going to be wronged, she is pregnant, and my son should spend more time with her .”

"The emperor handles the affairs of state with peace of mind. I don't feel wronged. If the emperor has no time, I will go to Shoukang Palace and talk to the queen mother. As long as the queen mother doesn't dislike me."

Gu Jinzhi took over the words, and now she is eating and sleeping well, even if Zhou Jing is not around, there is nothing wrong with her.

On the contrary, she felt much more relaxed, after all, before she became pregnant, 'manual labor' was often unbearable for her.

"Of course the Ai family won't dislike you. If you feel bored, just go to Shoukang Palace."

"It's just that it's already September. In a few days, I'm afraid it will snow. Then please invite your mother into the palace. You'd better go out and walk less."

If it snows, even if someone cleans it, it may still slip. Once it slips, it will be a big deal.

"Thank you, Queen Mother, for your compassion." The Queen Mother said, and when the time comes, she can invite her mother into the palace.

Although the queen mother treated her well, there was still a gap between mother-in-law and mother-in-law. She was more comfortable in front of Gu Fang.

After talking for a while, seeing the tiredness on Gu Jinzhi's face, the queen mother quickly ordered Zhou Jing to send her back to the carriage to rest.

The convoy was still moving steadily, and it took less than a month to travel from the capital to the palace because there were few delays on the road.

Returning from the palace to the capital, because the empress was pregnant, the convoy drove slowly and had more time to rest. It was already the end of September when they approached the capital.

Seeing that it was coming into October, the thin clothes were replaced by thick ones. Fortunately, Ziyuan was prepared and brought thick clothes when she left Beijing, so that Gu Jinzhi didn't get cold.

The queen mother is also prepared. After all, she is old and can't compare with young people. When others are still wearing gauze clothes, the queen mother's clothes are already much thicker.

When others put on thick clothes, the Empress Dowager held Mrs. Tang in her hands.

Zhou Jing wore a cloak and didn't feel cold. After all, he was a man and practiced martial arts all year round, so it was slightly thicker than before, which was enough to keep out the cold.

The three with the highest status were all prepared, and no one was frozen, but it was hard for the concubines who followed.

They all wanted to go to the palace to escape the summer heat, looking for opportunities to attract the attention of the emperor, and the clothes they brought were all light and beautiful, although there were a few thicker ones, but in this season, they were useless at all.

"Niang Niang, you didn't see that the young masters were huddled in the carriage, saying nothing and refusing to come out, all of them were very cold."

Qingluan was sitting in the carriage, wearing thick palace attire, "Thanks to Ziyuan's carefulness, otherwise the slaves would have been frozen."

"I'm going back to Beijing now, and send the clothes that I don't wear to the young masters." After hearing Qingluan finish speaking, Gu Jinzhi gave orders.

"Yes." If it wasn't for returning to Beijing soon, Qingluan would definitely have to say a few words. Since he is about to arrive, if he can send a favor, he will give one. There is no harm at all.

So, she took Zi Yuan together and distributed the extra thick clothes that Gu Jinzhi had produced to the concubines who followed.

Everyone is naturally grateful, if it is not inconvenient in the carriage, they must go to salute Gu Jinzhi face to face.

Concubine Xia Gui put on the clothes sent by the empress, her blue face from the cold finally eased.

"Fortunately, the empress was prepared and sent someone to bring it over. Otherwise, the young master might catch a cold when he returns to the capital."

The little maid serving on the side sniffed and spoke tremblingly.

The masters have their own rewards from the empress, they are slaves, but they don't have this kind of treatment.

When she left the palace, she brought thick clothes, but the master was cold before, so she gave them all to the master, but now the master has changed into the clothes sent by the queen, her clothes are considered to have returned to her.

"Isn't it all your fault that you are wearing thin clothes? Otherwise, how would I suffer from the cold? I have to be wronged to wear what the servants wore."

Opening her mouth angrily, Xia Guipin glared at the little maid, and after a long time of rest, all the injuries she suffered before have recovered.

However, after returning to the palace, he had to continue copying Buddhist scriptures.

Facing Concubine Xia's reprimand, the little palace maid lowered her head, she felt aggrieved in her heart, she had persuaded the master, when she came back, it might be cold, so please bring some thick clothes.

But the master won't listen, and won't let her take it, so what can she do?
"The people around the empress are clever. They knew to bring clothes for the empress. The empress must have changed into thicker ones when it was cold. Now that she was about to arrive in the capital, she thought of taking out her clothes. What did you do?"

It was the queen's order to copy Buddhist scriptures, so she felt a lot of resentment towards the queen.

"My lord, please keep your voice down. If someone hears this, tell your empress..." The little palace maid hurriedly raised her head, persuading Concubine Xia.

Before, the young master fought with Concubine Yang Gui in the palace and was punished for copying Buddhist scriptures, which was forgiven by the empress.

Now if you still slander the empress like this, if someone hears it and tells the empress, I am afraid that a catastrophe will be imminent!

The little palace maid's persuasion made Xia Guipin shut up, but she was still not angry, and secretly cursed a few more words in her heart.

Qingluan passed by outside the carriage, and she almost heard what was said just now.

There was a flash of irony in her eyes, and she headed back towards Gu Jinzhi's carriage. People like Xia Guibin will suffer a lot sooner or later.

After going back, she didn't say anything about it, and it wasn't a big deal. The empress is pregnant now, it's better not to let the empress know about these unimportant things.

As for Concubine Xia, when she returns to the palace, sooner or later someone will take care of her.

　Recently, a lot of people are playing a game called Frog Travel, or Travel Frog. It is a Japanese game. It is to raise a frog and give it a name, and then prepare some daily necessities, and the frog will bring it with it. Things, going out to travel is called a Buddhist game, because you don't know when the frog will leave and when it will come back, all you can do is prepare the things you need, I also got one, although I am a Taoist Author, but I have half a Buddhist heart~
