Chapter 456 Little Daughter-in-law
A plate of snacks was placed on the low table, and it was too late for Gu Mingzhu to refuse.
Kunning Palace was banned before, and these small snacks were made from the kitchen of Kunning Palace. Although the style does not look as good as those in the Palace of Defei, the smell smells very greedy.
The fragrance of glutinous rice and red beans was scented, and Gu Mingzhu couldn't help swallowing.
The female official also gave Master Mo a quiz, but Master Mo never moved after thanking him. Gu Mingzhu admitted that she did not have the heart of Taoism like Master.
Queen Wei said: "Try it, right?"
How could he refuse the Queen's kindness? Gu Mingzhu had to pick it up and put it in her mouth.
There were eight pieces on the plate, she ate two or three... four or five pieces, and it was just right to take advantage of this Kung Fu Empress to talk to her master.
Queen Wei said, "So Concubine De is in good health now?"
Zhenren Mo has been to Kunning Palace twice and is already very comfortable with Empress Wei. The Empress is very friendly and is a smart and transparent person. She doesn't say a word and hide it. Many people just deliberately want to make themselves unfathomable, but in fact they may not have much thought in their hearts.
Zhenren Mo said: "It will be a few more days, and I'm afraid you will feel abdominal pain from time to time in the future."
"Will there be such a big impact?" Empress Wei raised her eyebrows slightly, "It doesn't look like Concubine De's style. It's probably because she fell into the trap of others. Just because the timing was good this time, the palace was punished, and the imperial concubine made the palace complain. Concubine De just went with the flow and got rid of the palace and the imperial concubine. However, if she had to put on her body, she would never do it." Concubine De knew very well that if she could protect her status with her son, she had to hold the emperor firmly, and she would suffer from abdominal pain at any time and not be healthy. How could she serve the emperor often?
Queen Wei looked at the female official: "Go and ask if there are any palace servants in Yongchun Palace who have had abdominal pain and health in the past two days. Then go to the Imperial Hospital to check the record. Who has been to Yongchun Palace in the past two days?" Concubine De should have found a palace servant to test the drug before taking action, and also asked the Imperial Hospital for clarity. If the palace servant, the Imperial Doctor and the Sili Supervisor Chen Xiang were accomplices, they would conceal the properties of the medicine.
After saying that, Empress Wei said, "If you verify that Concubine De has someone to test the drug in advance, it just means that she has fallen into someone else's trap."
Gu Mingzhu naturally knew what the Empress meant. If everything was manipulated by Concubine De, then Concubine De would have a very good understanding of the poison and there was no need to do anything extra.
Queen Wei arranged these and turned to look at Gu Mingzhu, with a smile in her eyes. Miss Gu really likes to eat snacks. Next time she will ask the palace servants to prepare more.
If there were no Zhuzhu in Yongchun Palace today, the case would not have been tried so smoothly.
Queen Wei's expression was even gentler, which shows that Brother Chen had a better vision than her.
Gu Mingzhu felt the gaze of Queen Wei, and she raised her eyes and looked at each other.
"Do you still eat?" said Queen Wei.
Gu Mingzhu wanted to say that there were many more, but she couldn't eat them anymore. Her eyes fell on the plate but found it empty. Gu Mingzhu sighed in her heart, only to blame the glutinous rice cake for being too soft and melted in her mouth.
Gu Mingzhu pursed her lips and stood up to salute the Queen: "Thank you, I am full." Keep some face and come to Kunning Palace for another meal next time.
Queen Wei nodded: "Okay." She will feel uncomfortable if she eats too much glutinous rice. Next time she will ask the kitchen to make some candied fruits so that she will not eat too monotonously.
I just don’t know when Zhuzhu will be able to enter the palace again, what is her mother and Brother Chen planning to go to Huaiyuan’s mansion to propose marriage? If I didn’t settle it earlier, I would feel uneasy.
"I also liked to eat these when I was young," Queen Wei smiled, "but my favorite is just one or two."
Gu Mingzhu nodded and suddenly remembered the way Lord Wei made red bean cakes. Lord Wei hadn't had the chance to send it to the palace to honor the queen.
"My daughter likes red bean cake and candied fruit." These are also the best things about Lord Wei.
Queen Wei smiled and said, "Is there a cook at home that is good?"
Yes, Gu Mingzhu nodded again, but she couldn't talk about Lord Wei's craftsmanship in front of the Empress, so...
Gu Mingzhu thought for a while: "It's a young wife. If the Empress loves to eat, I will bring some into the palace next time, I don't know if the rules in the palace can be allowed." When she first ate red bean cake at the Cui family's ancestral grave, she felt that the snack came from a young wife.
Queen Wei said: "Just bring it in, I want to try the skills outside, but I haven't eaten it for a long time."
The two of them smiled at each other again. These meaningless common words were so friendly.
At this time, the palace servants came to report: "Empress, the masters of each palace are here."
In addition to congratulating and paying respects, each of them would also have to sue the imperial concubine. She had experienced too much such a thing. Queen Wei looked at the female official and said, "Let them go back. There are many things happening in the palace recently. Let them close the door and check it yourself first. It is clear that the Japanese palace will ask people to ask the results."
The matters of Yongchun Palace could not be concealed, so she simply did not go around the circle. They could see the matter of Concubine De clearly. From now on, they should be more careful. She would give them the opportunity to interrogate the palace ladies themselves, so that they would not complain one by one when she took action.
Seeing this situation, Mo Yangming and Gu Mingzhu stood up to say goodbye. The Empress had just received the imperial edict, and there were still many affairs in the palace that the Empress needed to arrange them personally.
Queen Wei nodded: "It's better to leave the palace earlier, but it's not peaceful in the capital, so you should pay more attention."
Gu Mingzhu looked at Empress Wei's calmness. Not everyone could do this honor and disgrace. Since the Empress could re-held the phoenix seal, there was no need to worry too much about the situation in the palace.
Mo Zhenren and Gu Mingzhu went to Cining Palace to talk to the Empress Dowager for a while, and then they left the palace with the Empress Dowager's reward.
Seeing that his little apprentice got a lot of good things, Mo Zhenren smiled and said, "I haven't heard the Empress Dowager call someone else's 'girl' for a long time, but it's obvious that the Empress Dowager likes you very much." The Empress did not give a reward because she was afraid that she would do this too much so that Zhuzhu would be targeted.
The Queen is also working hard.
When she was with the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager also treated the then Princess Lu, the Empress, liked to talk to Princess Lu, even if it was a trivial matter, and was afraid that she would be questioned if she got too close.
Zhenren Mo turned his head and looked at Zhuzhu. A thought suddenly flashed through her mind, would the Queen like Zhuzhu so much, point the marriage for Zhuzhu?
Gu Mingzhu didn't see the strangeness of her master. She held her cheek and thought about Nie Chen's progress. When would she catch Zheng Ruzong? If she could go and see how good it would be.
...
Zheng Ruzong walked from dawn to darkness.
After changing the road and heading northwest, I saw the soldiers of the court several times on the official road.
This time the imperial court used a lot of people.
"Maintain the business," the follower told, "The Lord has sent someone to send us a message, and he is asking us to go all the way to Yanqing Guard, and the Lord will send someone to pick us up there."
