royal princess

Chapter 131 The Queen's Thoughts 1
Seeing Si Jin wearing chrysanthemums on her temples and fleeing from the wilderness, Xiao Qi followed quickly. It was such a beautiful day, the candle shadows were red, and he only hated the short spring night.

Guan Changan looked at the ground with his eyes, staring fixedly at the ground, pretending he didn't see anything.Tsk tsk, the emperor's eyes are really... blatant.

Yun Chang closed the door and retreated with a blushing face, arranging errands for the night, and when she was done here, she saw Chen De'an was bowing her head and talking to Guan Chang'an, she hesitated for a while, then came over, just in time to listen to a tail , "According to the father-in-law's order, people have been sent away, but the emperor?" Hao Ren from Changle Palace came just now, saying that the little princess missed her father.Tsk, the child who can't speak for several months, obviously wants to ask the emperor to leave.He didn't dare to make a decision, and in a blink of an eye, he didn't report directly to the emperor, but went back to Guan Chang'an first.Unexpectedly, Guan Changan sent him away directly, saying that the emperor had already rested and dared not disturb him.

When Hao Ren left, the look in his eyes wished he could peel his skin. Although Chen De'an was a little apprehensive, he was not stupid, so he said it was Guan Chang'an's order.Even if the imperial concubine complained, she would not dare to use Guan Chang'an for surgery, no, even if she was blamed, there would still be Guan Chang'an as a backstop.When Guan Changan was unconscious, he took the blame for someone else.

Don't feel too sour.

After sleeping until dawn, Si Jin rubbed her waist and rolled around on the bed with the brocade quilt in her arms, but she just didn't want to get up.The gluttonous emperor is still very unscrupulous. Relying on his youth and good health, he can start quickly, so he can't make too much trouble to save some food for the future.

But in a blink of an eye, he thought, who knows if there will be a goblin who will snatch people from him in the future, it seems that squeezing out the stored food is also a good choice.

Thinking of Xiao Qi's downfall in the future, Si Jin laughed muffledly as he looked at Jin quilt.

Yun Chang came in with light steps, and heard a voice in the tent, knowing that the master was awake, she hurriedly said: "Master, it's time to wake up." Damn it, put it in someone else's palace, who would have the nerve to sleep until this time with so many people in their eyes.Those low-ranking concubines have to get up early to greet the concubines who live in the same palace as the main hall, let alone such a good day.

"Let's hang the curtains." Si Jin sat up slowly, almost laying down again with her back sore.

When Yun Shang heard the words, she called someone in, and the room suddenly became busy.Folding the bed and making quilts, washing and changing clothes, a few people were so busy that their feet didn't touch the floor.

For the seafood porridge brought by Yue Changxin for breakfast, Si Jin squinted her eyes before she put down the bowls and chopsticks. Chen Dean swayed outside the curtain, Huarong walked out quickly, and soon came in again, leaning over to salute, "Master , Aunt Tong is here."

Si Jin was taken aback when she heard the words, wiped the corners of her lips with a handkerchief, and then said, "Please sit in the flower hall first."

"Yes." Huarong went in person.

Yunshang served the master and went in to change into the big clothes for people, and then said in a low voice: "Master, Aunt Tong is here at this time, and I don't know why." Yesterday the queen stayed with the concubine for so long, today the queen Aunt Tong arrived, so she was naturally worried.

Si Jin didn't know what Aunt Tong was doing here. Although the imperial concubine and the queen had always been at odds, it didn't mean that they would not sacrifice their own interests when they had the same interests.Women from these aristocratic families are the most able to weigh the pros and cons, so she couldn't guess what the queen asked Aunt Tong to do.

"You'll know when you go to see me, can you still eat me?" Si Jin pretended to be relaxed and smiled.

Yun Chang looked at the master and sighed helplessly, "But don't be afraid, the emperor will always make decisions for the master."

Si Jin smiled and said nothing.

Ever since the Li Zhaoyi incident happened, Si Jin saw all the guests in this small flower hall that was specially cleaned up. The room is not very big, but it is elegantly and generously furnished, so it can be handy.As soon as she saw Si Jin coming in, Aunt Tong got up to greet her, smiled and knelt down to salute, "Slave and servant please greet Master Xi."

"Aunt Tong please get up quickly." Si Jin hurriedly stepped forward and reached out to help Aunt Tong, "What are you doing being so polite to me? Is the empress all right? I have always wanted to say hello to the empress. It’s just that my body hasn’t recovered yet, and my heart has been very uneasy.”

Aunt Tong helped Si Jin to sit down, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has also been thinking about Master Xi's injury, and knowing that you are now in peace is a bit of a relief. Your Majesty said that it is only serious that Master Xi take care of his body first. The master's heart is known to the empress."

Si Jin thanked the queen for her understanding, let Aunt Tong sit down, and ordered Yun Sang to serve tea.Aunt Tong hastily declined, and said: "The servant is here at the order of the mother, and if you say something, you have to go back to work. Thank you Master Xi for your kindness, and the servant will accept it."

After Aunt Tong said this, Si Jin didn't insist, and said, "Girl, I don't know what orders you have from your mother when you come this time?"

"It's for Master Xi and Ji Li."

Si Jin was taken aback for a moment, and looked up at Aunt Tong, with a fit of excitement, gratitude and anxiety on her face, "It's just a matter of time, I don't dare to bother my mother. My mother has to manage the affairs of the six palaces, so why not?" I would never dare to worry about such a small matter.”

Seeing Si Jin's terrified appearance, she didn't feel any resentment towards her mother for the injury, Tong Gugu secretly nodded in her heart, no wonder the lady praised Master Xi so much, she was grateful.Thinking of this, Aunt Tong smiled a little more sincerely, and said: "Niangniang and Ji are a big deal, and it is also a very important ceremony at home. Even if you enter the palace, you shouldn't save it, and it doesn't take much trouble. Order to go to the inner court and it will be done naturally, Master Xi don't have to worry. The empress asked the servants to ask the master what he likes about the clothes and jewelry that he wore that day."

Si Jin was also thinking about the queen's intentions, but in fact, she had already been favored after entering the palace, so it didn't really matter whether it was up to the ceremony or not.But listening to what the queen meant, she wanted to do something big for her...

"The empress has always treated me with such kindness as a mountain. I am very grateful. How can I let the empress work so hard for me? I am really worried. I also ask the aunt to help me express my feelings. The concubine is grateful for the kindness of the empress, but it is too late. I really don't want to do the ceremony anymore." Si Jin looked at Aunt Tong nervously and restlessly, and held Aunt Tong's hand in a moment of excitement, with tears in her eyes, as delicate as pear blossoms with rain in spring, It made people look at it with pity, "Auntie, I almost lost my life last time, I really don't want to..." Si Jin didn't say the following words, but the meaning was clearly expressed, and then she hung her eyes. Nodding, bowing his head and wiping away his tears.

Aunt Tong looked at Xi Wanyi in surprise, she really looked frightened.Speaking of it, it is true that what happened last time was too bluffing, and she almost died. It is normal for Xi Wanyi to be so frightened.After thinking about it, she frowned, looked at Xi Wanyi and said, "The Empress is thinking about Master Xi's grievances last time, that's why she wanted to hold a grand banquet."

Hearing what Tong aunt said, Si Jin quickly said: "Since I entered the palace, my empress has taken care of me a lot. If there is no empress, my concubine would not have a good life today. But, I am really scared, so I asked my aunt to take care of me under my mother's care." Say a few kind words for me in front of you." As he said that, he took off the table on his wrist and stuffed it into Aunt Tong's hand, "I also remember all the care my aunt took for me these years."

Aunt Tong knew that the bracelet Xi Wanyi gave her was a gift from the emperor, so she quickly declined, but Si Jin insisted not to take it back, only saying: "I know Auntie is a good person, but I... I was really frightened by what happened last time." I also hope that my aunt will speak well for me in front of the empress because of my many years of affection, and don't mention this as a gift, I will remember all the kindness of the empress in my heart."

Aunt Tong never expected Xi Wanyi to be so timid, but thinking about it, what happened last time was quite scary, so she accepted the bracelet, got up and said: "This servant will pass on the words of Master Xi, but will the lady know?" I can't guarantee that I will change my mind, but I will definitely convey Master Xi's sincerity."

With a grateful smile on her face, Si Jin stared at Aunt Tong and cried tears, treating her as a sign of redemption. A hard-hearted person like Aunt Tong couldn't help but feel soft-hearted, and left with a sigh.

After Aunt Tong left, Si Jin sat at the round table and frowned, wondering why the queen did this?Did it mean the queen, or did the concubine go to the queen yesterday?At this time, she didn't want to find out the murderer and give her justice, but insisted on holding a funeral banquet at this time, which always made Si Jin feel uncertain.

If the queen and the noble concubine join forces to cheat her, she really has no power to fight back.In the past, relying on strength to fight, relying on the queen and the concubine to go around in circles, you still need to be cautious in your words and deeds.If the two join hands this time, Si Jin doesn't even know what to do.

Is it because Xiao Qi was too nervous last time, and then these people looked into his eyes and couldn't bear it?

Now this is the only explanation that can make sense of the reason why the queen and the imperial concubine joined forces.

But he is the Queen's person, why is the Queen joining forces with the imperial concubine to destroy her so urgently?The queen's IQ should not do such a stupid thing that is close to breaking her arms, right?

Si Jin couldn't figure out what was going on for a while, so she looked at Yun Shang and said, "Dangshen fish head soup is ready?"

"The imperial dining room is already up early in the morning, so it should be ready by now." Yun Chang said quickly.

Si Jin nodded, "Go to the imperial dining room and bring the soup to Chongming Hall."

As soon as Yun Chang heard this, she understood that the master wanted her to send a letter to Guan Chang'an, so she nodded, "I'm going now, slave."

Si Jin nodded, no matter what, Xiao Qi still needs to come forward to suppress this matter.Let Yunshang pass a message in the middle, she also wants to see what Xiao Qi will do, anyway, she also told him about the queen and the noble concubine yesterday, he will definitely take care of it.
