food queen

Chapter 528 Meeting in the Late Night (2)
"Some things, I can pretend that I didn't hear them. But some things, if I heard them, I heard them." Ji Xing said indifferently.

"You, what do you want?!" The maid before said angrily.

Ji Xing said expressionlessly: "I don't want to do anything, I just want to hear you two explain what you said just now. What is the empress's disease, what is the disease, what did the imperial doctor say? You told the poor Ni, the poor nun will naturally stop entanglement. Let's go our own way."

"This is a palace secret. Why are you asking so many questions, a nun?" Maid A asked with a frown.

Maid B hurriedly gave her a hand, and only wanted to calm the matter down: "Forget it, anyway, the Empress's illness is not a secret, so it's okay to tell this master. They were invited by His Majesty to chant scriptures for Her Majesty."

"Forget it, if you want to say it, you say it!" Maid A flicked her sleeves and turned around.

Maid B told Ji Xing about the queen's condition, and then hurriedly pulled her companion's sleeve to leave: "That's all, little master, we have something to go, if we delay our errands, we will lose our lives." Yes. You should go back quickly, this is not a place where you, a monk, can hang out."

Ji Xing frowned and sneered as he watched the backs of the two maids leaving in a hurry.But what the two maids said is true, she really can't walk around in this palace, if her master Master Hui'an knows too much, her life will be difficult.So he turned around and wanted to go back the same way.

"Master? Master Ji Xing?" Behind a cluster of crape myrtle, someone called out in a low voice, "Miss Shao?!"

Ji Xing's heart trembled, and he immediately stopped and changed his head to search: "Who's there?!"

A fifteen or sixteen-year-old maid in a low-grade palace dress came out from behind the crape myrtle flower, stepped forward and blessed Ji Xing: "Slave servant greets Master Ji Xing."

"Who are you?!" Ji Xing clearly heard the little maid calling herself 'Miss Shao' just now, her heart pounding, she hadn't heard this name for a long, long time.

The little maid took two steps forward, approached Ji Xing, and whispered, "The servant is from the Shao family."

really!Ji Xing frowned and looked at the little maid who looked like a flower bone in front of her. She was beautiful but unattractive, her eyes were clear, but she had a shrewd look that couldn't be concealed. One could tell that she was a smart girl.

"Don't talk nonsense here. How could the Shao family have such a ignorant girl like you?! Whose family are you from, but you are planted here?" Ji Xing asked with a frown.

"Ah, it's the servant who is reckless, don't blame the master." The little girl took out a light blue handkerchief from her arms and held it in front of Ji Xing. After the girl has seen it, the girl will know that the servant is her own."

Ji Xing looked around vigilantly, took the square handkerchief and unfolded it, inside was a sapphire ring, which was something that Shao Xilan had never left his body for many years. Shocking——In today's Shao family, the head of the family has been bedridden for many years, and Princess Jiaying is imprisoned in the Prison Temple. Even if she dies, according to the law of Dayun, the consort is not allowed to remarry.The Shao family, which has been prominent for decades, has suffered a complete defeat, and now there is only a pair of concubine children born in the outer room, who are still young. Ji Xing never expected that there are still people in the Shao family in this palace.

Seeing Ji Xing's expression, the little servant girl knew that she had believed her, so she took another step forward and said in a low voice: "Young master sent someone to come in, and said that the girl should also be more active. It is not easy to enter the palace this time, and you must not I went back so easily. Also, the maidservant reminded the girl that the emperor's eyeliner is everywhere in the palace, and the most heavily guarded places are the Fengzhang Hall and the Imperial Dining Room. Although the Yihe Palace was the residence of the former empress , but there are dozens of guards guarding the palace, the girl must be careful."

"I see." Ji Xing looked around again, "I have been out for a long time, and I have to go back. If there is something, how can I find you?"

"The maidservant is on duty here in Yihe Palace. In the evening, the maidservant will deliver fast food to the masters who are chanting sutras. Miss, please go back, the maidservant is also busy." The little maid blessed her body and hurriedly retreated.

Shao Suwen put the ring away, turned around and walked back, just walked a few steps, and saw Ji Kong has been looking for it anxiously, saw her hurriedly grabbed her: "Go! If you play any more, you will delay things. You will be punished by Master!"

The two ran back in a hurry. At that time, Mrs. Hui'an was still meditating, and the other four nuns were also meditating. Ji Kong and Ji Xing looked at each other and were about to sit down. : "Where did you two go?"

"Senior Sister, we are not used to the food in this palace, and we have diarrhea." Ji Kong said in a low voice.

"In this case, you don't want to eat those cold meals. You won't be able to sit still when you pray to the empress later." Ji Yun said lightly.

"Yes, Senior Sister." Ji Kong replied, and secretly looked at Ji Xing again.

Ji Xing was full of thoughts at this time, so he naturally didn't care about the meal, so he sat back on his futon silently.

At the second quarter of the hour, Yihe Gong began to chant sutras again, and Ji Xing quietly followed a few senior sisters to the side hall. On the surface, everything was as usual, but in fact, it was difficult to restore peace in his heart. I couldn't stand listening anymore, and looked back at her again and again.

Monks don't need dinner, and Hui'an has to do homework in the evening, so he asked the eldest disciple Ji Yun to take a few others to go back and copy scriptures to pray for the empress.

Ji Xing complained to Ji Yun on the grounds that he felt unwell in his stomach, and quietly walked out through the back door.

The empress's phoenix body is against harmony, and the imperial wives outside will naturally greet the empress when they hear the news.Women with foreign orders cannot enter the palace casually, and when they enter the palace, they only kowtow outside and then go back.Naturally, the concubines of the royal family couldn't just kowtow outside and leave. The one who came to visit today was Concubine Heng.

Concubine Heng brought her concubine Su into the palace, but Han Qian was too embarrassed to refuse.

After sitting in Fengzhang Hall for half a day and gossiping with Wei Tiantian for half a day, Concubine Heng took Su Shi out of the palace.Han Qian didn't have a good impression of Princess Heng, and she didn't bother to deal with it, let alone stay for dinner, so she asked Sun Defu to send the two of them out.

After leaving Fengzhang Hall, Sun Defu bowed and said with a smile: "Two concubines, go slowly. The slave has to go to talk to the empress, so I won't send you far away."

Concubine Heng nodded and said, "I have to thank you, Father-in-law."

Sun Defu turned and went back, while Concubine Heng and Su Lan walked out one after the other.

When leaving the gate of the inner palace, a little palace maid suddenly appeared from the corridor next to her, and stepped forward to give a blessing to Princess Heng: "Princess, the Empress called the maidservant to bring you a message."

Concubine Heng frowned, looked at the attendants around, pointed to a small courtyard behind her, and said with a light smile: "Since the empress has something to say, let's talk over there."
