Rebirth of the ghost concubine of the confused country

Chapter 207 Finding the Empress Dowager

"No!"

Hearing this, Zhu Zixin hastily stopped him.

"Why?"

Nangong Xi was puzzled and asked.

"In this way, the relationship between Zhu Jing and me will only become more rigid. Even if he reluctantly agrees, my life in the Hou Mansion will not be easy!"

Zhu Zixin said.

"Then what do you think it should be?"

Nangong Xi asked.

"I want to adopt a roundabout tactic so that he will recognize my daughter even if he doesn't recognize me!"

Thinking of this, Zhu Zixin walked back and forth for a few steps, finally thought of a good plan, and whispered something to Nan Gongxi.

"Okay! This method is good, I will do as you say!"

Hearing this, Nangong Xi praised repeatedly.

"Ah."

Zhu Zixin nodded.

"Then, that second aunt, what do you want to do with it?"

Nangong Xi asked again.

"I heard from my elder brother that Langzhong Liu has been found. When the time comes, I just need to bring him to Zhu Jing, and if you happen to be present, the prince, I can expose Ge Lirong's evil deeds. I'm not afraid that she won't plead guilty! And that Zhu Zi Chan, collude with her mother, I will not let her go."

Having said that, Zhu Zixin paused, and then said:

"However, these things are not in a hurry. We will talk about them when I return to the Hou Mansion smoothly."

"Well. Then you should prepare well. I will take you into the palace in the afternoon!"

Nangong Xi nodded.

"it is good!"

Zhu Zixin also nodded.

The Empress Dowager's Hall of Finding Sun has always been very lively.

Because she likes to be lively and is very kind to people, and the daughters of the ministers are talented, and they often come to the palace to pay respects to the Queen Mother. The joy they brought to the Queen Mother cannot be underestimated.

The Empress Dowager knew it well and was willing to match the marriages of the princes and courtiers' daughters. Therefore, in the Xunyang Palace, there were always Yingying Yanyan, singing and laughing, and the sound of silk and bamboo.

Zhu Zixin was also invited by the Queen Mother because she was good at playing Guzheng, because she was always busy at that time, so she never came, but today she entered the palace in Nangongxi's carriage.

However, they did not enter through the main entrance, but went directly to the back door, and then they went to the kitchen.

When the people in the kitchen saw that the prince had actually come here, they were naturally shocked. They all knelt down on the ground and said in their mouths:
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Prince."

"Everyone is welcome, the king is here to let this lady cook a good dish for the queen mother, you don't have to be restrained, just cooperate with her! Remember?"

Nangong Xi raised her hand and said.

"remember!"

Everyone answered in unison.

"Zixin, prepare well, then I'll go and pay my respects to Grandma Huang!"

Nangong Xi turned to Zhu Zixin again.

"Okay, let's go."

Zhu Zixin nodded.

"Well, then everything went according to plan!"

After Nangongxi confessed, she turned around and went out through the back door, and then went straight to the front door.

"His Royal Highness is here!"

The voice of the eunuch's simultaneous interpretation came from the door, and the queen mother was overjoyed when she heard the words, and said with a smile:

"This heartless emperor hasn't come to see my old woman for so long. Today, the Ai family must teach him a good lesson."

"Grandma Huang, you're the one who's berating your grandson behind your back again. Isn't your grandson coming to see you?"

As soon as the words fell, Nan Gongxi said with a smile, and generally walked in with big strides.

The hall was lively just now, but after hearing Nan Gongxi's voice, all the sounds stopped abruptly, and the daughters of several ministers in the hall also tactfully retreated out.

However, when they reached the door, they couldn't help but turned their heads and took a sneaky look at Nangong Xi before leaving shyly.

Nangong Xi was used to such gazes, she walked up to the Empress Dowager, knelt down and kowtowed:

"Grandson pays respects to Grandma Huang."

"Okay, get up quickly! Grandma Huang hasn't seen you for a long time, and I don't know what you're busy with. Is there a girl you like, and you don't have time to see Grandma Huang?"

The Empress Dowager seemed to be offended, but in fact she was doting.

"Grandma Huang, what are you talking about? You know what your grandson is thinking, and you only like Zixin!"

Nangong Xi got up and said emphatically.

"Hey! Silly boy, Grandma Huang doesn't know what you're thinking, but that child is already dead, so you said it's worth it for a dead person?"

"Who said Zixin is dead? Grandma Huang, she is not dead."

Nangong Xi said.

"Ugh!"

With a sigh, the queen mother only thought that what Nan Gongxi said was stupid. Then, the queen mother pulled him to sit beside her, and then said:

"Tell Grandma Huang first, what have you been up to these days? Why haven't you seen your people for so long?"

It turned out that the old man tried to divert his grandson's attention, and the poor queen mother loved her grandson so much.

"Look for Zixin! My grandson has been looking for Zixin all this time, but luckily I found him!"

Nangong Xi said again.

"..."

The queen mother was really speechless this time, she never expected that she would spend so much effort trying to divert his attention, but in the end, her busy work was wasted.

"Alas! poor child!"

Touching Nangong Xi's head, the queen mother's tone was deeply distressed.

"It seems that you have fallen into a demon! There are so many good girls in the world, why do you insist on Zixin? Zixin is good, but she..."

"Grandma Huang, as I said before, Zixin is not dead, she really is not dead!"

Nangongxi was also a little helpless, he didn't understand why his grandma didn't believe him after he said so much?

"Go back to Empress Dowager, this is the cake you want."

At this time, a woman dressed as a court lady walked in with her head down, holding a cake in her hand.Step by step, she walked towards the table where the Queen Mother and Nan Gongxi were.

"Dangao? This...isn't this...isn't that girl Zixin's talent? You...who are you?"

Hearing the word cake, the queen mother was stunned and asked hastily.I
"Grandma Huang, don't worry, how about you try this cake first? See if there is any difference with Zixin's cake?"

At this time, Nan Gongxi smiled and handed the cake to the queen mother. The queen mother looked at Nan Gongxi suspiciously, and then looked at the maid who lowered her head suspiciously, and then took a bite of the cake hesitantly.As soon as the cake was in her mouth, she said to the maid:

"The taste of this cake is exactly the same as that girl Zixin made. Who are you? Raise your head and talk."

At this time, Nangong Xi said just now:

"Zixin, raise your head."

The palace maid then raised her head, looked at the Queen Mother with a smile, then bowed down and said:

"Zixin greets the empress dowager!"

"You, you really are Zixin?"

The smile of the woman in front of her is as pure as a white lotus blooming in midsummer, holy and elegant, and the sly and deep look in her eyes is more like a shining gem in the night sky. A person's appearance can be similar, but her eyes must be is unique.

The Empress Dowager looked at the woman up and down in astonishment, and then asked.

"Yes, Empress Dowager, it is me, I am Zixin!"

Zhu Zixin repeated.

"But, this..."

Seemingly unable to accept this sudden surprise, the Queen Mother still couldn't believe it was true even after hearing Zhu Zixin's affirmation.

"Your father, Marquis Jinyang, has announced that you are dead! Why..."

"Grandma Huang, it's a long story, let grandson tell you slowly."

At this moment, Nangong Xi interjected.

"Then tell me, what is going on?"

The queen mother heard the words and said eagerly.

Nan Gongxi pulled the Empress Dowager's hand, and put a cushion behind her, and said just now:

"It will take some time to complete the story from the beginning. Grandma Huang, now that you are comfortable, grandson will speak slowly."

"okay!"

The Queen Mother nodded, as if she was listening attentively.

Zhu Zixin stood aside, respectful.

"Grandma Huang, in fact, it was because the second concubine and third miss Zhu Zichan of the Zhu Mansion wanted to murder Zixin and seize the dowry her mother left her, so she found someone to murder Zixin. Later, my sixth brother He...he was jealous of the fact that I begged you to take Zixin last time, so he and Zhu Zichan took Zixin captive to a small island..."

Speaking of which, the Queen Mother's brows were already furrowed. Although she likes Nan Gongxi, Nan Gongxun's grandson is also very good at pleasing her. He often visits her. She has always had a good impression of him, but now she suddenly accepts him. Naturally, she couldn't accept the other Nan Gongxun.

"Grandma Huang, grandson knows that you can't believe such a thing, but it's really true. In order to save Zixin, grandson tried everything possible to find the small island, only to find out that he has a secret military base there. There were a lot of soldiers and weapons, but it was a pity that the grandson was eager to save Zixin at the time, so he didn't take advantage of it. However, Zixin can testify that she was imprisoned by the sixth brother on the island for half a year, so she naturally knew of."

The Queen Mother looked at Zhu Zixin upon hearing this, and Zhu Zixin nodded slightly.

"Now I don't have evidence, I can't prove his crime, and I don't plan to tell my father about it, because before there is no evidence, if my grandson says something, I'm afraid my father won't believe it. If my grandson says this, I don't know." It's not that I want Grandma Huang to do anything, but I just want Grandma Huang to be more careful, and don't be blinded by the sixth brother in the future. Besides, Sun Er is also worried that he has so many soldiers. I'm afraid that my father will be in danger."

Speaking of this, Nangong Xi showed a hint of worry on his face.

"The empress dowager, what the prince said is true. Zixin can testify that on the way back we were chased and killed by the king of Ji. Fortunately, the auspicious prince and the loyal ministers along the way helped us to save the day. The empress dowager Well, it wasn't that there was a flood in Weizhou, but it was more terrible than the flood! The prefect of Weizhou was full of evil, bullying the people, and occupying women from good families. Although he has been killed by us, all these are inseparable from King Ji. At one o'clock, he was killed by King Ji and the prefect of Weizhou, the scars on the prince's body are still there, take a look!"
