Chapter 136

When we arrived at the Kunde Palace, Guo Shunyi was drinking tea with the queen and talking with the queen. Since Concubine Hua committed suicide, Yu Zhaorong was often ill, so Guo Shunyi often came to accompany the queen and became very friendly with her. When Chang Cairen came, they were all taken aback, but Guo Shunyi reacted quickly, got up and waved to Chang Xi who had just stepped into the palace door, smiled and said: "Sister, come in, it's cold outside, don't freeze your body. "

The queen also said, "Why are you here in such a cold day? Even though you've just passed your confinement, it's still not advisable to leave the house too early."

Chang Xi smiled and said: "Staying in the house for a month is really boring, and thinking that I haven't seen the queen and all the sisters for a long time, so I came to have a look."

"I haven't seen you for a month, and Chang Xi's appearance is getting more and more charming! You Lan, quickly serve tea to Chang Cairen." The queen ordered the old woman behind her.

You Lannuo made a noise, and just as she was about to go out, the queen gave another order: the tea should be light, and it is best to be hot, not lukewarm.

Guo Shunyi laughed and said, "The Empress really loves Chang Cairen, she cares so much about a cup of tea."

"Chang Xi came out of this palace, and she has made great contributions to this palace, and she is the right-hand man. How can I not care about it?" The queen smiled while clutching the handkerchief.

Guo Shunyi also smiled, and turned to Chang Xi and said, "How are the little prince and princess? In order to help the empress prepare for the New Year, I didn't go to Qianshanzhai to visit them. Counting the days, the day after tomorrow will be the full moon." Come on!"

Chang Xi nodded and said, "The day after tomorrow is full moon."

The queen patted the foam lightly with the tea cover, and said with a smile: "I heard that His Majesty is going to hold a banquet in the Taiji Palace to celebrate the full moon for the little prince and princess?"

"Your Majesty did say that, but the concubine thought that the banquet for the full moon would be held in Xingqing Palace, and there is no need to bother all the sisters to go to Taiji Palace." Chang Xi replied.

The queen put down the tea bowl, and said: "Your Majesty values ​​you, and you want to have a good time in the palace. You have to seize the opportunity. Also, can you eat the immortal jade powder that the palace gave you continuously?"

Bi Chuan said, "Tairen eats half a spoonful every day."

"Immortal Jade Girl Fan, what is that?" Guo Shunyi asked after hearing the strange name.

The queen played with the small glass bottle covered with greenery and purple flowers in her hand, and said with a smile: "It's the beauty powder that Siam entered the palace. It is said that there are ingredients such as Atractylodes macrocephala and snow lotus in it. Those envoys babbled a lot, and I can't remember it. It’s clear, it’s about these few things, I heard that the effect is very good.”

"So that's how it is!" Guo Shunyi said, "The glass bottle that the empress is holding is also a tribute from foreign envoys!"

"That's not it!" The Queen's tone was slightly smug, "Your Majesty brought several pieces, including the five hundred arhat screens with red sandalwood inlaid teeth over there, so that there is no room in the Kunde Palace."

Guo Shunyi smiled and said: "That's because His Majesty loves his wife dearly. After all, they are a married couple with different feelings."

The queen pursed her lips and smiled, and said again: "Don't mention these things, but also say that this fairy girl fan, Chang Xi, you have to eat carefully, don't take it lightly!"

Guo Shunyi also said: "Women who have given birth are most likely to have spots on their faces, but they need to take good care of them."

"The concubine wrote it down! Thank you, Empress Empress, and Sister Shunyi." Chang Xi bowed her body to thank her.

The queen just wanted to ask Chang Xi if she had recovered, when she heard the little yellow gate outside shouting, "Princess Yuzhen is here!"

Then I saw Princess Yuzhen wearing a large-sleeved dress with Danbi gauze pattern on her upper body, and a skirt of plum blossoms and white water that dragged the floor. .

Seeing this attire, not only Chang Xi, but also the queen and Guo Shunyi were stunned.

"Yuzhen sees the emperor's wife." Yuzhen bowed slowly.

The queen was relieved by You Lan's reminder behind her, and hurriedly said: "Sister Yuzhen, don't be too polite, give me a seat!"

Yu Zhen sat on the crescent moon stool moved by the servant, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen the emperor's wife for many days, Yu Zhen misses her very much."

The queen is used to Yuzhen who speaks sarcasticly, so she didn't feel comfortable with her words, and hurriedly said: "I also think about my younger sister, but my younger sister never interacts with ordinary people like me, what's the matter today? "

Yu Zhen smiled and said: "Where is the emperor's sister-in-law who is a vulgar person? It's all Yu Zhen's ignorant nonsense."

Guo Shunyi was surprised and said: "Isn't the princess practicing in Baiyun Temple? Why did you change Taoist clothes and wear palace clothes?"

"This is the purpose of Yuzhen's trip to find the emperor's wife." Princess Yuzhen looked at the queen sitting on the seat, and said calmly: "Yuzhen wants to return to vulgarity."

"Returning to vulgarity?" The queen almost choked out the tea in her mouth, quickly covered her mouth with a handkerchief, looked at Yuzhen in surprise, and coughed non-stop, causing Aunt Youlan behind her to beat her back all the time.

Guo Shunyi was also surprised and said: "Sister Yuzhen really decided to return to vulgarity?"

Yu Zhen smiled lightly and nodded.

The queen has recovered, and said with a smile: "It's good to return to vulgar life. Last time, my sister insisted on becoming a monk. Your majesty and this palace can't stop me. This time it's all right. My sister can often come to the palace to accompany me. Your majesty has listened." This news must be very happy!"

"Your Majesty is just such a younger sister. At the beginning, she was reluctant to let the princess become a monk. This time, she must hold a beautiful ceremony to let the princess return to vulgarity." Guo Shunyi smiled.

Unexpectedly, Yuzhen shook his head and said: "Thank you Guo Shunyi for your kindness. Yuzhen is here to inform the emperor's wife. As for the ceremony, let's keep everything simple. Yuzhen has important things to do, so I won't stay here any longer. Let’s talk to the queen’s wife again.”

When the queen saw Yuzhen say that, she stopped forcing herself, and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, the prince Li Yi and Princess Shangxian will join the palace to celebrate the full moon in the future. My sister must remember to come when the time comes."

"Definitely." Yuzhen offered a blessing to the queen, then Shi Shi withdrew.

After the princess left, the queen and Guo Shunyi looked at each other in dismay, and the queen said, "Is this really Princess Yuzhen today? This Palace is not dreaming!"

"It's the princess, even if the empress and the concubines are dreaming, but Chang Xi can hear it clearly here!" Guo Shunyi explained to the queen.

Chang Xi had guessed a little bit in his heart, he was happy on his behalf, but also slightly sad for himself, and said, "It's a good thing for the princess to return to vulgarity."

The queen said: "Well, indeed. But I'm afraid that her little daughter will be self-willed, and she will become a monk in a few days. Isn't it a joke for the world to see the royal family!"

"I don't think so." Guo Shunyi shook her head thoughtfully, "Looking at the princess, she has made up her mind."

Chang Xi listened to Guo Shunyi's words and looked at Princess Yuzhen's leaving back, feeling sad for a long time.
