Rank One Princess Douxian Wang: Phoenix Palace Brocade

Chapter 195 Who's Life Experience
Out of the inner hall, Zhao Yuanxiang, who was just perfunctory, would naturally not admit it when he left the house. He stopped, and said in a neutral way: "Don't think that you can get what you want if you please the Queen Mother. Although Xu Jialan is reckless and superficial, she is much better than you."

"If my sister heard what His Highness said, she must be very happy." Xu Jiatong didn't take it to heart, and it would be too strange if he didn't react at all.

Zhao Yuanxiang suddenly leaned forward, and said in a slightly angry voice: "This king never thought of marrying her, and you Xu family members are not worthy. But she is doing things for this king after all, and the big dog depends on the master. You If you touch her, this king will not let it go so easily."

"It turns out that His Royal Highness King Xiang and her are really on the same side. If you want to harm people and do what you want to do, you don't allow others to resist. You have to be like a wooden man, and you can't fight back when you hit or scold you. That's right." Xu Jiatong just felt that their thinking didn't make sense, so he sneered.

Zhao Yuanxiang's face was ugly, he snorted coldly, left a "you wait" expression, turned and left.

Tai Gonggong has been following them from a distance, and when he saw Zhao Yuanxiang leave first, he chased after them.He looked at Xu Jiatong and Zhao Yuanxiang's back, and shook his head.

"The empress has two princes. I don't know if the other one has the same temperament?" Xu Jiatong asked.

Grandpa Tai sneered and said: "It's not at all. His Royal Highness Sheng Wang has not been by Madam's side since he was a child. Naturally, he rarely gets along with His Royal Highness Xiang Wang. Madam also has regrets in her heart. If the fourth girl has the opportunity, it would be great if she can persuade His Highness King Xiang. "

"My sister and I are in the same situation, I'm afraid there is nothing we can do." Xu Jiatong didn't intend to get involved.

Eunuch Tai was very worried about Zhao Yuanxiang, fearing that he would cause trouble on the spur of the moment, especially in front of Zhao Yu.He followed Xu Jiatong for a while, feeling more and more worried,

"Elder-in-law, you don't need to accompany me, just tell me how to get there. I won't wander around. If you can't find it, just ask the maid, and I won't miss the hour." Xu Jiatong has another thing to do, and he also wants to He backs off.

"This..." Eunuch Tai hesitated for a moment and thought about it. Xu Jiatong is a person who can mess around, and he just won the favor of Queen Wu, and he will destroy his future when he is crazy. Lantai, go straight along this road, turn east at the fourth alley, go straight for a while, go south at the third alley, keep going, and you will see it. If you can’t find it, At this time, there are quite a few people delivering things there, if you walk in the direction where there are many people, or ask someone to ask, you can't go wrong."

"Elder-in-law, don't worry, I'm good at knowing the way. If you have something to do, hurry up and get busy." Xu Jiatong glanced in the direction where Zhao Yuanxiang's back disappeared. He obviously didn't go to the Royal Garden.

As soon as Tai Gonggong got away, he went to chase Zhao Yuanxiang.Xu Jiatong walked for a while according to what he said, she walked very slowly, it seemed that it was the first time she walked this palace path, and she was even unfamiliar, but what she thought in her heart was not like that.

The Cao family had already given her the map in the palace, for nothing but the water in the two wells.Mrs. Cao was very mysterious by the well water, she finally got into the palace, if she really couldn't get into the palace, now is the only chance.Although she can't take out a lot, she can take out some from the two bottles hidden under her dress.

They were two porcelain bottles. She wrapped them squarely with cotton cloth, wrapped them together, and put them in her carry-on bag.The water contained in it was probably enough for her to make two dyes, but only enough to dye one piece of clothing.

But she had seen that blue color before, Cao's handkerchief was dyed with the dye prepared from that well water, that blue color was very unique, she had never seen it in Jinxiu workshop for many years.Although it was only enough to dye one piece of clothing, it was already a lot.

Xu Jiatong recognized the direction from memory, turned around at the entrance of a palace alley in front of him, and walked in along a desolate palace alley, which was the road leading to the cold palace.

It is said that apart from the old eunuchs who cleaned the place, there were very few people passing by. It was Queen Wu's birthday, and the people here were probably transferred. At this time, the palace road was empty except for Xu Jiatong.

After walking for a while, it should be here. Xu Jiatong looked around, and it really was a cold palace. Looking at the peeling red paint on the wall, and the old wooden door that was cracked, he thought it hadn't been repaired for so many years, but he described it to Mrs. Cao. almost identical.

"It's here." Xu Jiatong identified the place, first knocked on the door twice, but no one answered, and he couldn't hear the sound, so he pushed the door open.

This is the place to fetch water and do laundry for the Lenggong. Mrs. Cao said that the clothes of those disused concubines in Lenggong are only washed once or twice a year. People don't come here very often, and it's exactly the same at this time.

But Xu Jiatong still walked over lightly, and there were indeed four wells in total, she fetched water from the east and west wells respectively, and put them in her two precious bottles.Then I rewrapped the bottle, tied it under the skirt, and tied it to my right leg. I was thinking that walking would make no sound, and I was about to stand up, when suddenly...

...someone, very close, very close...was blowing on her neck.

Xu Jiatong froze all of a sudden, the breath was very warm, as if something like a few strands of hair touched her neck.

Is it a court lady?But when you see a stranger coming in, shouldn't you shout out immediately?

Xu Jiatong took advantage of her lack of further action, rushed forward a few steps, and then turned around abruptly.

A woman about 50 or [-] years old was standing there disheveled, looking at her with a smile, but the smile was very weird, not with ulterior motives, but almost crazy.

However, it can be seen that this woman is still sane, and she will not hurt anyone, even... Xu Jiatong saw a large wooden basin on the other side of the well with sharp eyes, and there was a basin full of old-colored and thin-clothed clothes. Damp, obviously freshly washed.

She closed the wooden door just now, but it is now open. Obviously, this woman is not in the yard, she probably went out for a while, and just came in.

"I am a guest of the Empress Dowager, and I entered the palace to celebrate her birthday. I was a little thirsty just now, so I came in to drink some well water to moisten my throat." Xu Jiatong also knew that he was farfetched, but this woman's expression and behavior were different from ordinary people, maybe Will not see through the flaws in her words.

The woman tilted her head to look at her, smiled silly, but still didn't turn her head straight: "Concubine Tong Yu, wash the clothes, they asked me to do the laundry."

"You are the king's concubine? Who told you to do the laundry?" Xu Jiatong frowned.

Maybe it was a concubine who fell out of favor and was deposed, she was still in good health, and she still had reason, so she was ordered to wash clothes.

Without even thinking about it, Tong Yu shifted her neck to the other side: "They said that the concubine can still move, so they asked the concubine to wash the clothes. Are you a palace maid? You came just in time, and there are still five things that have not been washed... ’ she said, pointing to the dry pile of ‘rags’.

Xu Jiatong walked over suspiciously, kicked it twice, and it turned out to be five pieces, so she looked at Tong Yu in surprise.

"Did you see what I did?" Xu Jiatong asked.

"You drink water, there is a bottle." Tong Yu's gaze suddenly became erratic, and suddenly she became panicked, her whole body trembling, "Well water is drinkable, really drinkable, Concubine Chen, the water is clean and drinkable... "

"Yes, you can drink it, don't be afraid." Xu Jiatong knew that Tong Yu was remembering something from the past, she was not very curious, and seeing that she was no longer pestering her blindly, she slowly retreated towards the door.

Just when Xu Jiatong was about to turn around, Tong Yu suddenly chased after her. She was actually not in good health, and she was a little shaky when she walked, but her grasp was particularly quick and powerful, and she grabbed Xu Jiatong back in one stroke.

"You don't drink? You are like me. You are a useless concubine. You will never be able to get out of the cold palace. What airs do you have? I will let you put on airs. You drink, and you drink for me." Tong Yu grabbed Xu Jiatong and went to the well. Bump on the edge.

Xu Jiatong was on guard against her early in the morning, and the moment she was caught, she really didn't break free, but the next moment she steadied her pace and pushed Tong Yu aside.

It might not be useful if it were someone else, but facing the thin Tong Yu, Xu Jiatong broke free without much effort, but Tong Yu was tripped by the clothes on the ground and fell to the ground.

"I'm not Concubine Chen, you've got the wrong person." Xu Jiatong heaved a sigh of relief. If Concubine Chen is the same as Tong Yu, this is the grievance between two concubines who fell out of favor.

The cold palace is so dilapidated, and the clothes are patch after patch, and in such a field, they are still fighting. It gives me a headache to think about it.

"Really? Did I recognize the wrong person?" Tong Yu rubbed her forehead, stared and turned around, as if looking for something, "Chen Concubine, do you think the water is cold? There is no fire, no hot water, and you will die Drink it. Don't you drink it? You don't drink it, no, no..."

"Don't mess around, I'm not some concubine Chen, don't come here." Tong Yu bumped around, Xu Jiatong hurriedly backed away.

Tong Yu said angrily: "Didn't you just give birth to a child? A wild species, what's so great about it, born in the cold palace, just strangle it to death, anyway, you will die sooner or later."

Xu Jiatong took back the foot that was about to be sold. Could this Tong Yu have been yelling like this before?If that's the case, I'm afraid I won't be able to live today.

Is it because of yourself?Xu Jiatong suddenly became more vigilant, walked back, and asked softly: "Do you think I look like Concubine Chen?" I hope it's not...

"No, not like." Tong Yu shook his head, and suddenly said angrily, "You smell the same as her."

smell?Xu Jiatong carefully smelled herself, she never used incense, only a little dye smell on the cuffs of her jacket at the moment, it was stained by the painting at the palace gate... nothing special, no, It was prepared with the jar of ointment Dai Yuanguan gave.

"Tong Yu, don't worry, think about it carefully, is Madam Chen Fei giving birth to a boy or a girl? Where did she go after giving birth?" Xu Jiatong asked coaxing her.
