Chapter 644

Xiaobi patiently tried to persuade Murong Zhining: "Niang, you can put down the misunderstanding of the emperor! The servants have seen it. The emperor is sincere to you. "

Xiaobi helped Murong Zhining to the outer round table and sat down. On the table, there was a full table of rich breakfast. There were all kinds of delicate snacks, various kinds of porridge, and more than ten dishes of various kinds, large and small dishes, adding up to more than 30.

Murong Zhining light frown: "this palace has no appetite, after the early meal as far as possible to simplify, this palace only needs a bowl of rice porridge, a steamed bread can."

Xiao Bi's head was shaking like a rattle drum: "how can I do that? You are the most important woman in Huayan and SHANGXIA. How can you eat such crude food as rice porridge and steamed bread? Niang, although there are so many kinds of snacks, there is only one small dish for each. What you can't eat will never be wasted. You can take it to admire the little maids and eunuchs in the yard? "

Murong Zhining was easygoing and nodded: "well, that is. If you say so, the palace will not feel extravagant! Xiaobi, you are such a sweet little girl

Xiaobi's smile on her face: "it's my great honor that I can get the approval of my mother! Niang, you eat more, you are more abundant, will certainly be more beautiful! Come and have a taste of the shredded eel and bean curd. The emperor said, "this is your hometown dish."

Murong Zhining shook his head suspiciously: "Yan Yue Xuan spent so much effort to please this palace, what did he really want to do? But he still remembers to win over the people with the local dishes of this palace? "

Xiaobi responded: "Niang, can't you see it? The emperor remembers all your likes and dislikes. His kindness to you is absolutely not disguised. "

At this time, Zheng Changxing's voice rang out in the yard: "Niang, I've come to give you snacks by the emperor's order."

Xiaobi met the door: "Mr. Zheng, it's really hard for you. When the emperor was in the early days, he did not forget to send someone to send dim sum to his wife. It really moved the servants

Zheng Changxing said in the courtyard, "Niang, the emperor said you can visit your old friend in the West Palace. At noon, please return to Guihuang palace and have lunch with the emperor. I will not disturb my mother's meal, and I will leave. "

Xiaobi came into the room with a delicate ivory porcelain bowl with a golden border: "Niang, Duke Zheng is the emperor's eunuch at least. Are you also appropriate to give people some response, don't let people Zheng father-in-law too shameless? Here, this is the osmanthus chestnut cake sent by the emperor. It's sweet and glutinous. You can't help drooling at a glance. Please try it

Murong Zhining eyelids did not lift: "this palace is not interested in the food sent by Yan Yue Xuan. I appreciate it to you and wu'er."

Little bi crept up her eyebrows and said, "madam, if you would like to give me other snacks, I'm sure I'll take them with joy. However, the refreshments given by the emperor are specially made by the imperial dining room. There are tonic medicines prescribed by doctor Qiao in it. They belong to medicinal food. If you get the reward, let the emperor know, and the servant will be punished. Niang, eat it quickly. The emperor knows you won't take the medicine, so he has to ask the imperial dining room to make snacks for you... "

Murong Zhining carries the porcelain bowl with snacks and goes to the yard and pours the dim sum in the flower bed directly.

Xiaobi's aggrieved tears whirled in her eyes: "Niang You are too strong! It's a pity that I've received the reward. "

Murong Zhining sat at the table and sighed: "this palace is not aimed at you! Tell the eunuch in charge of the courtyard that we want to visit Princess Xiao in the West Palace later. "

Xiaobi lowered her head in embarrassment: "Xiao Princess Xiao? Why does she want to see her? Emperor The emperor told the maidservant that she could go to see anyone except her

Murong Zhining gently frowned with a moth eyebrow: "that's good, pass this palace order, this palace wants to go to Jingci palace to see the emperor."

Xiaobi's head was buried lower: "Niang Niang, if you want to see the emperor, you have to inform the emperor first... "

Murong Zhining patted the table top: "this palace can not see this, see that also can't, he simply shut this palace in the cold palace. What is Taiji Palace's home? That's all lies

"Empress, the Emperor may have seen you come to the palace for a short time. He is afraid that you will be wronged, so he won't let you see the emperor."

Murong Zhining was disappointed to shake his head: "this also can't see, that also can't see, you simply tell this palace, this palace can see who?"

Xiaobi said: "Niang, I can give you a move. As you can see, the size of the palace is the emperor has the final say, so you have to give the emperor more smiling faces. He is happy. Where do you want to go? Isn't it all in one sentence? "

Murong Zhining tentatively said: "Xiaobi, or, you take this palace to the Luo Niang's bedroom?"

Xiaobi bowed her head without any low spirit: "Niang, you still can't see! The emperor knows you like the palm of his hand. He even knows all your thoughts. The woman surnamed Luo has not been granted a seal. She is being held in the place where the criminal slaves are kept in the palace. I heard that she had a son more than one year old. The emperor wanted to send the child out of the palace for foster care, but Madame Luo would not let him go. "

Murong Zhining suddenly spirit: "pass this palace order, this palace wants to see the emperor in the imperial study."Xiaobi clapped her hands happily: "this is a wonderful idea! However, the emperor should still be in the early Dynasty at this time. You have to go later. The Emperor may be very happy to see his mother go to see him in person. "

Murong Zhining pondered for a moment: "forget it, I don't want him to misunderstand him, and I don't want to see him. If you pass on the order of this palace, I'd better go to the West Palace. "

Xiao Bi nodded and replied, "wu'er, go and let the eunuchs prepare the sedan chariot. The empress is going to go to the West Palace. Ma'am, when you enter the house, the maid will change your clothes. "

Xiaobi picked out a set of Ming Huang's phoenix feather pattern wide sleeve skirt robe with lotus root white embroidered Begonia flowers. She carefully dressed Murong Zhining neatly. She also selected a light and small pure gold spreading wing Phoenix crown to wear on her head. She inserted six Phoenix Tail Golden hairpins into the Phoenix crown and fixed it on her bun.

Murong Zhining gets on the sedan chariot and wanders aimlessly in the palace. She looks at the familiar palace in front of her. The three big characters of "deer Ming Palace" are reflected in her eyes: "stop, let people open the gate of the Luming palace."

After a while, a little eunuch named shunzi came running with a bunch of keys. He knelt down on the ground: "servant, see the empress! I've kept my mother waiting. " He used the key to open the bronze lock on the gate of the deer Ming Palace.

Xiaobi helped Murong Zhining to get off the sedan chariot and put her skirt tail in order. They followed shunzi and entered the Luming palace.

Murong Zhining looked around, a sense of desolation welled up in her heart. She couldn't help but feel sad. A teardrop rolled down from her almond eyes.

Xiaobi quickly handed over a brand-new silk handkerchief: "madam, it seems that this place has been deserted for a long time. Do you have any origin with the master here?"

Murong Zhining took a handkerchief to wipe the corner of her eyes: "the aunt of this palace married to Huayan Hougong from the Shang Dynasty. She is the imperial concubine. She has lived here for more than 20 years."

Shunzi stooped down and retreated to the side: "lady, please! The Luming palace is not abandoned. The emperor has his people clean the palace regularly. He himself comes here from time to time to sit here for a while, as if he is nostalgic

Xiaobi helped Murong Zhining to the front of the main hall: "Niang, I didn't expect that you and your aunt have a good relationship with Hua Yan!"

Murong Zhining lamented: "it's a pity that my aunt and I are married to be inhuman, destined to bury the best years in this deep palace!"

Xiaobi gently pulled the sleeve of Murong Zhining: "Niang, you can say anything you like in private. There are other slaves here! The system in the palace is strict. No matter how respected you are, you should be careful what you say and do. "

Shunzi said: "please rest assured, sister Xiaobi. I'm also a member of the imperial palace. I won't talk about it."

Murong Zhining sent back all the people: "you all retreat to the Luming palace, this palace has Xiaobi and wu'er to accompany can."

Shunzi bowed and took five accompanying eunuchs to the outside of Luming palace.

Xiaobi hit a spirit: "Niang, maidservant thinks, the palace that nobody lives in is gloomy, frightening, you are not afraid?"

Murong Zhining said: "you take Xiaobi to wait outside the Luming palace, and this palace is a person to turn around inside. This is my aunt's bedroom. How can I be afraid? You two go out. This palace is used to being alone

Wu'er came forward to hold Murong Zhining: "sister Xiaobi, maidservant comes to serve the empress, you go outside to wait on it."

Murong Zhining entered the hall and sat on her seat. She said to herself, "aunt, Fengyi has come to see you. Fengyi, like you, is about to bury her youth in this cannibal palace. With Fengyi with you, you will not be lonely. No, no, No Fengyi lost her manners. You have already returned to your hometown and entered the ancestral Tomb of the yuan family! Aunt, where is your secret? Where is the picture of outing

Wu'er took a round fan, gently for Murong Zhining fan: "Niang, are you looking for a painting?"

Murong Zhining sad place to head: "aunt dying, to the palace left a secret, the secret hidden in a picture called" the picture of the green. "

Wu'er said: "since it's a secret, it won't be hidden in public. Why don't you look for it in the bedroom?"

Murong Zhining looked at wu'er with appreciative eyes: "you are really a smart little girl. Go and have a look in the backyard. Wu'er, aren't you afraid? Even Xiaobi doesn't dare to come in. "

Wu'er helped Murong Zhining up and said, "I'm afraid of you, too. I'm mortal. I don't have the courage of a lady. But in order to ensure the safety of your mother, I don't have to worry about it. The safety of your mother can't be ignored! "

They went through the hall, along the corridor, into the backyard.

Although the backyard is clean, the grass in the bluestone path has grown a foot high, which is quite desolate.

Murong Zhining goes to the bedroom hall where Han Xu lived before her death. Seeing a copper lock on the gate of the bedroom hall, she pulls out a gold hairpin and tries to poke it into the lock hole. She even opens the door without any effort.

With the sound of "Zhi Ya", Murong Zhining pushed open the door of the dormitory hall, which had not been inhabited for a long time. A musty smell mixed with dust came to her face. In the dark and long closed empty room, there was a chill on the back.Wu'er gently pulled Murong Zhining's sleeve: "Niang Why don't we go out first. It's really frightening to have more people accompany you here! "

"Who allowed you in?" A full of green mulberry sense of the blame, in Murong Zhining behind the yard echo.
