The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 342 Getting Closer (Seventh)

At night, Xiao Jingkong replied a letter full of emotion to brother Ming'er, and then he hung the letter around Xiao Jiu's neck, and carried Xiao Jiu to the east room: "Jiaojiao, I also have an eagle!"

Use Xiaojiu to send a letter to brother Ming'er!

Gu Jiao was amused, she moved his little head and said, "Xiao Jiu has never been to Liang Country, so she doesn't know the way."

Besides, even if it knows the way, won't it fly away at any time if the letter is hung around its neck like this?

Why are kids so funny?

Xiao Jiu is no longer a baby eagle, but a real sea dongqing. It doesn't understand what the little master wants it to do, so it stares with a pair of eagle eyes in a daze.

"Well, that's great." Xiao Jingkong was a little disappointed. If he used an eagle, he could fly very fast. Brother Ming'er could receive his letter in two days!

"Can you use eight hundred miles to expedite it?"

I really hope Brother Ming'er can see his reply soon!

Gu Jiao looked at him and said: "The credit of the people is less than 800 miles, so hurry up."

Xiao Jingkong tilted his head: "But, but I used it last time! I sent the letter to Master, and I sent it with my brother-in-law, and my brother-in-law sent it to me eight hundred miles urgently!"

This little guy was probably fooled by Xiao Liulang.

Well, since he is her husband-in-law, she won't expose him.

Gu Jiao then said: "Because Brother Ming'er is not in Zhao State, the 800 miles from Zhao State cannot reach Liang State."

Xiao Jingkong drooped his little head: "That's it."

Seeing the little guy's depression, Gu Jiao couldn't bear it a little, thought for a while and said: "So, tomorrow we will go to the palace to see my aunt, and ask my aunt if she has sent official letters to Liang Guo recently. Official letters are better than people's letters. Much sooner, and send your letter here if you have it."

"Yeah!" Xiao Jingkong was happy again!

The next day, Xiao Jingkong returned from school at the Imperial College, and Gu Jiao took him to the palace.

Gu Xiaoshun and Gu Yan had to go to learn art, so they didn't bring them along.

Xiao Jingkong sees a red candle stamp on Ming'er's letter to him, and asks Xiaoshun to make one for him too.

Gu Xiaoshun carved his own seal for him, dripped a burning red candle on the seal of the letter, and then put the seal on while it was hot, and it was done.

Not only that, Gu Xiaoshun also made him a beautiful and practical wooden box to hold the letter.

Xiao Qingkong took the wooden box and Haidongqing Xiaojiu with him.

His little Jiu has not entered the palace yet,

He decided to take Xiaojiu to see the world. Besides, Jiaojiao said that Xiaojiu had never been to Liang country and didn't know the way, so he wondered if it was possible to send Xiao Jiu to Liang country, so that Xiaojiu would know the way.

... I'm not afraid that Xiao Jiufei won't come back.

Xiaojiu is a majestic Costinus, with beautiful and lustrous feathers, and a pair of wings spread out, full of power to soar into the sky.

The people of Renshou Palace were very scared at first, but after observing for a while, they found that it really didn't hurt anyone, so they became more courageous and began to feed it and stroke it gently.

However, I don't know if it's their illusion, this eagle looks a bit like a chicken?

Don't birds bounce around on the ground? Why is it walking swaggeringly?

Recently, the imperial court sent letters to the Kingdom of Liang, all of which were official exchanges. The Empress Dowager Zhuang asked to put the wooden box with a small clear space in the accompanying letter, indicating that it was sent to Prince Yu's residence.

After playing in Renshou Palace for a while, Xiao Jiu flapped her wings and went out.

Xiao Jingkong ran out to look for it, and Eunuch Qin hurriedly sent two big insiders to follow up.

Xiao Qingkong ran all the way to the imperial garden, and Xiao Jiu landed on the shoulder of a little fat man.

The little fat man was none other than Xiao Qingkong's classmate Qin Chuyu.

Qin Chuyu didn't go to class for a few days, he caught the wind and cold, and has been recuperating in Empress Xiao's Kunning Palace.

He often went to the clinic, and Xiao Jingkong took Xiao Jiu there a few times, except that the big bird almost ate the little bird when they met for the first time, and he and Xiao Jiu got along very happily afterwards.

"Brother Chu Yu! It turns out that Xiao Jiu is here to look for you!" Xiao Qingkong ran over.

However, Qin Chuyu didn't run towards him as excitedly as before. Qin Chuyu hesitated for a moment, and turned his back on Xiaopang.

Xiao Jingkong came behind him and looked at him in surprise: "Brother Chu Yu, what's wrong with you?"

Qin Chuyu drooped his head, trying to control himself not to turn around.

He already knew who Xiao Jingkong was. Although Xiao Jingkong was not from the Zhuang family, he still referred to the Empress Dowager Zhuang as aunt, and had close contacts with Renshou Palace.

Although he was only eight years old, he vaguely understood that the emperor's grandmother didn't like him and his father, the queen mother, and even didn't like the prince's elder brother and the prince's sister-in-law.

He has never had any contact with Renshou Palace.

Brothers are very important, but so are fathers and queens.

He has parents first, and then brothers, he can't abandon his parents for the sake of the latecomers, he can only feel sorry for Xiao Jingkong.

But it's really uncomfortable!

They are obviously such good brothers!

We've fought together, skipped class together, collected protection money together, and slipped past chickens together!

"Brother Chu Yu!" Xiao Jingkong walked around in front of him, "Are you crying?"

"I didn't!" Qin Chuyu hastily raised his hand to wipe away his tears!

Xiao Jingkong didn't understand where Xiaojiyou's sadness came from. He thought for a while and said seriously: "I heard that you are sick, are you crying because your illness is not recovering? Jiaojiao is very powerful Miracle doctor, she is in the palace, I can take you there, ask her to take a look for you!"

I am not because of this!

Qin Chuyu roared loudly in his heart.

"Brother Chu Yu?" Xiao Jingkong tilted his head and looked at him with a little worry in his eyes.

Such a cute little guy, innocent like a cub, Qin Chuyu lost all resistance in an instant, he lowered his voice, choked up and said, "No... no... I can't go to Renshou Palace..."

I can't see you either.

We are destined to be a pair of bitter brothers!

This life, this life... can only live in each other's memories!

Xiao Jingkong patted his little shoulder: "Okay, don't worry, Jiaojiao's medical skills are really very, very good, she will definitely be able to cure you."

As he spoke, he grabbed Qin Chuyu's chubby hand.

Qin Chuyu originally wanted to get rid of it, but somehow he lost his head and was dragged to Renshou Palace.

Qin Chuyu has always been deeply jealous of Renshou Palace. He has never come here on his own initiative, except for the necessary greetings during the New Year and holidays, he always comes with his father, queen and queen.

When he arrived at the gate of Renshou Palace, he came to his senses and turned around to run away. Coincidentally, Gu Jiao was adjusting the swing in the courtyard of the front hall. She saw two little guys and said hello: "Chu Yu is here, come with Qing Kong!" Come in and play."

"I do not……"

Before he finished his refusal, he saw the swing that was taller than a big tree, and his attention was suddenly attracted.

It is in the nature of children to have fun.

What's more, Gu Jiao's presence gave him the illusion that he was still in the small courtyard of the hospital.

In fact, the courtyard here has indeed been remodeled, which is similar to the Bishui Hutong and the small courtyard of the medical center.

He walked in in a daze.

In the yard there is not only a gigantic swing, but also novel and unique wooden horses, and a slide that towers into the rockery, all of which were designed by Gu Jiao.

Qin Chuyu was dumbfounded.

"Jiaojiao, elder brother Chu Yu is sick, can you help him take a look?" Xiao Qingkong came to Gu Jiao and asked cutely.

"En." Gu Jiao waved at Qin Chuyu, "Come here."

Qin Chuyu walked over in a daze.

Gu Jiao touched his forehead, and then felt his pulse: "No problem, it's fine."

Xiao Jingkong looked at Qin Chuyu and said happily: "Did you hear that? Jiaojiao said you're fine! You can rest assured! Don't cry anymore!"

"Go and play." Gu Jiao bent her lips.

It is a child's nature to love to play, no matter how much Qin Chuyu fears the Empress Dowager Zhuang in his sea of ​​consciousness, but at this moment, with the company of Gu Jiao and Xiao Qingkong, he is just a happy little fat boy!

The two were sweating profusely playing in the yard.

At first, Qin Chuyu was still a little restrained, and he was more excited than Xiao Qingkong after playing. The yard was filled with his laughter and shouts, and even the little trumpeter couldn't beat him!

The Empress Dowager Zhuang, who was reading the memorial in the study, turned dark.

Fatty, it's so noisy!

Qin Chuyu had a great time in Renshou Palace and ate dinner here.

He got carried away with playing, when Gu Jiao asked him to come in with Xiao Qingkong for dinner, he readily agreed.

But as soon as he entered the dining room, he saw the Empress Dowager Zhuang sitting on the dining table with a majestic expression. He was so frightened that his calf gave way and he almost sat down on the ground!

That's right, although he became a lot more courageous after going to the Imperial College, he was still a coward in front of the big evil queen Zhuang.

The Empress Dowager Zhuang didn't go to see the little fat man, she just sat in her chair calmly.

Gu Jiao and Xiao Jingkong were used to her appearance long ago, and they didn't find it scary, but Qin Chuyu couldn't, his calves trembled, it was more terrifying than being abducted by human traffickers!

Gu Jiao took Qin Chuyu and Xiao Qingkong to wash their hands, and brought the two little guys to the table to sit down.

The small headroom still has his exclusive small seat.

Qin Chuyu was eight years old, and he could reach the table. He sat between the Empress Dowager Zhuang and Xiao Jingkong, and he really didn't even dare to move his chopsticks.

Whenever people from Bishui Hutong come over, the small kitchen will cook dishes according to their tastes, and when there is a small space, the dishes will be made to be childlike and cute.

Looking at the white and tender bunny buns in front of him, Qin Chuyu's saliva flowed down.

The buns are stuffed with red bean paste. The red bean paste is smashed into fine pieces and has a dense texture that melts in your mouth.

There is also a little bit of cheese added in it, it doesn't taste like milk, but it can smell milk.

This is what Gu Jiao taught the little cooks of Renshou Palace to make.

It cannot be eaten in other palaces.

Qin Chuyu fell in love with it after only one bite.

The little rabbit buns are just appetizers, the little koi made of oranges, the little swallows made of quail eggs, the milky soup filled with strange pumpkins, and the little piggy Peppa that Gu Jiao conquered all human beings in her previous life... Plum Crispy Meatloaf.

"Wow!" Qin Chuyu was astonished to death! Love it to death!

He has never eaten such a lovely thing!

Woo hoo!

too delicious!

He is going to cry!

Where did Qin Chuyu remember sitting next to her most feared queen mother? He is too busy!

Qin Chuyu couldn't stop eating.

I have to say that this little fat man was making a fuss, but the way he ate was quite appetizing.

Empress Dowager Zhuang glanced at him and said nothing.

With one meal, the two children were full. In fact, Qin Chuyu could have two more mouthfuls, but Gu Jiao was worried that he would be full, so she said that she would make it for him next time.

"I, I... can I come next time?" He blinked and asked.

Naturally, I was asking the Empress Dowager Zhuang.

Neither Xiao Qingkong nor Gu Jiao could answer for her.

I am most afraid of the sudden silence of the air.

The palace people looked at their noses, noses and hearts, and dared not show their atmosphere.

The Empress Dowager has a clear boundary with Huaqing Palace, will the Seventh Prince be allowed to come to her again and again?

The last time people from Huaqing Palace came here, something happened accidentally...

Everyone kept their expressions on their faces, but actually pricked up their ears.

"En." The Empress Dowager Zhuang responded in a neutral tone.

Xiao Jing Kong patted Xiao Jiyou on the shoulder: "Great! Auntie agreed! From now on, you can come and play with me often!"

"Hmm!" Qin Chuyu was excited, and with a wave of his small arm, he knocked over a bowl of soup on the table.

Empress Dowager Zhuang suffered a seedling, and the soup poured all over her body, dripping down.

The palace people suddenly changed color!

Eunuch Qin hurriedly stepped forward: "Queen Mother!"

After eating for so long, the soup was already cold, but it was so dirty and uncomfortable after being splashed all over.

Eunuch Qin hurriedly took out the handkerchief and came out to wipe it for the Empress Dowager Zhuang, but found that he couldn't finish wiping it all: "My servant will wait for you to change your clothes!"

Qin Chuyu's face turned pale with fright: "The emperor, the emperor, the emperor's grandmother..."

I heard that the imperial grandmother can eat people!

She not only eats people but also kills!

"Okay, don't make a big fuss." The Empress Dowager Zhuang pushed Eunuch Qin's hand away without letting the palace servants help her, and stood up calmly, "The Ai family is going to change clothes."

Qin Chuyu was dumbfounded.

Just, that's it?

The imperial grandmother is not angry? Didn't punish him?

As the night darkened, Qin Chuyu finally came out of Renshou Palace with his personal eunuch.

Eunuch Su, who had been waiting nearby for quite a while, stepped forward with an ouch, and held Qin Chuyu's little shoulders: "Hey, my little ancestor, are you okay? Why did you go to Renshou Palace?"

Su Gonggong is the confidant eunuch of Empress Xiao.

Qin Chuyu didn't go to Renshou Palace secretly. Empress Xiao naturally got the news, but she got it relatively late, and Empress Xiao thought he was going to the East Palace.

Eunuch Su pulled Qin Chuyu's wrist: "The queen is so worried about you! Hurry up and follow the servants to report to the queen that you are safe!"

Qin Chuyu was dragged forward by him, and asked puzzledly, "Why is the queen mother worried about me?"

Eunuch Su sighed: "Why else? Which palace is not good for the Seventh Prince to go to, but Renshou Palace? Does the Seventh Prince know that Renshou Palace is not allowed?"

It's no wonder that Empress Xiao gave Qin Chuyu an early warning to keep him away from Renshou Palace. In fact, more than ten years ago, Empress Xiao didn't keep an eye on little Xiao Heng, and made Xiao Xiao Heng go to the vicinity of Renshou Palace by mistake.

As a result, he was poisoned and almost died.

Eunuch Su glared at the little eunuch behind Qin Chuyu and said, "I don't want to stop my master from going to Renshou Palace! I'll deal with you later!"

Qin Chuyu frowned and said, "Don't deal with Xiao Dezi, I'm the one going! How dare he stop me?"

Eunuch Su said: "But he should at least deliver a message to the Queen."

Qin Chuyu said seriously: "I won't let him hand it over! If I hand it over, you will take me away and won't let me play with the imperial grandmother! The imperial grandmother is not as scary as you say!"

"What's so scary?"

Not far away came the sound of the emperor smiling.

Every time he saw this little fat man, the emperor would be in a good mood.

"Your Majesty!" Eunuch Su turned his head and saluted the emperor on the sedan chair, and then saluted Dowager Jing who was on the other sedan chair behind the emperor, "Ms.

Xiao Dezi also saluted.

Qin Chuyu called out, "Father!"

"Hmm." The emperor waved his hand.

"Get off the sedan chair." Eunuch Wei said, raising his whisk.

Both sedan chairs slowly descended.

Qin Chuyu rushed towards his own father.

The emperor was thrown almost to one side by the little fat man. He smiled and turned his head to signal him: "Have you greeted Grandma Jing?"

"Oh!" Qin Chuyu withdrew from the emperor's arms, walked to the sedan chair, and saluted the sedan chair behind him, "Grandma Jing!"

"So cute." Concubine Jing smiled gently, her doting eyes fell on his rosy face, "Where did you go to play today? You seem to be very happy."

Qin Chuyu said frankly: "I went to Renshou Palace! I saw the emperor's grandmother!"

Concubine Jing looked slightly startled.

The emperor's face darkened: "What did you say? Where did you go just now?"

Qin Chuyu shrank his neck: "Ren, Renshou Palace."

The royal father's eyes suddenly became terrifying.

"Who told you to go to Renshou Palace?" the emperor asked coldly.

"I, I went by myself." Qin Chuyu took two steps back.

"Come here, come to Grandma Jing." Dowager Jing stretched out her hand to Qin Chuyu.

Qin Chuyu was scared to death by his own father, as if he saw a straw, he threw himself into Concubine Jing's arms without hesitation.

Concubine Jing hugged him tenderly, and said to the emperor earnestly: "Your Majesty, don't scare him, he didn't do it on purpose."

Qin Chuyu muttered softly while laying in Concubine Jing's arms.

The emperor frowned: "What did you say?"

Perhaps relying on someone to support him, Qin Chuyu finally became more courageous in front of his father. He mustered up his courage and said, "I said that the emperor's grandmother is not bad at all! Why doesn't my father let me see her!"
