On Qi Bao'er's side, he was meeting the grandma that old man Qi had brought out from the palace.
Probably no one would have thought that this nanny was the former in charge of the Queen's Palace, and the one who had been in charge of the affairs of the Sixth Palace of the Harem for many years - Aunt Ye.
In nine years, too many things can happen, and there will be too many changes.
It’s just that Qi Baoer would never have thought that our simple queen would become a monk.
What do you mean by this?
There is no such thing as sadomasochism or anything like that. The emperor only started to have rain and dew after the queen became a monk. This is what happened on the timeline at that time.
And if you look at it carefully, the Queen's "monasticism" has such a vague relationship with Qi Bao'er, which is very worrying.
According to Nanny Ye, after learning that she was "missing", the queen asked the emperor for grace and went to Panling Temple outside Beijing to pray for her.
Perhaps people with a pure mind are born with the wisdom to enter Buddhism. It is estimated that the emperor who wanted to bring her up to be as simple as she is today did not expect that after the queen entered Panling Temple, it would be difficult to get her out.
The queen and the abbot of Panling Temple fell in love at first sight. The abbot didn't think about bringing a queen of a country into the Buddhist sect at first. It was ridiculous.
I just saw that the emperor had excellent intelligence, so he felt pity for the talents, so he would give lessons to the queen himself, and the Sutra Pavilion also allowed the queen to enter at will.
Unexpectedly, people's understanding is so strong that in the past three months, the Queen has cut off her worldly ties and wants to take refuge in Buddhism.
It's not that the emperor has never stopped her, but although the queen seems to have no temper, if she really makes up her mind, even the emperor can't change it.
To be more precise, she found her true meaning of living.
Grandma Ye always remembered what the Queen said at that time: "In my whole life, I don't know what I am living for. No matter when I feel that I should be happy or when I should be sad, I always feel that way.
Happiness and sadness are all vain."ъiqugetvt
The queen pointed to her left chest, with a rare look of confusion on her face, "It always feels empty here."
"In the temple, when chanting sutras, I won't have that feeling of being unable to keep my feet on the ground."
Nanny Ye didn't know why the emperor finally agreed to let the empress go. At that time, because the emperor was in a bad mood, everyone in the palace was in danger. Although Nanny Ye had been in charge of the harem for more than ten years, she still had great prestige.
For a while, everyone knew that the emperor was angry with the queen. People in the palace were the best at flattering the queen. The emperor was angry with the queen, and she, the queen's personal nun, naturally had fewer and fewer people willing to obey her.
.
Within a few days, a major incident occurred in the palace, where a nobleman fell into the water and died.
Aunt Ye, who was in charge of the affairs of the harem on her behalf, was dismissed from the punishment department without even a chance to argue.
Speaking of this, there was no look of resentment or reluctance on Grandma Ye's face. She still looked calm. If the scars at the corners of her eyes were ignored, she was still the honorable and unfazed grandmother she once was.
Maybe she noticed that Qi Baoer's eyes were focused on the scar on her face, and a rare embarrassment appeared on Grandma Ye's face.
"After the Empress left the palace and went to Panling Temple to pray for the country, the old slave was released from the Shenxing Department. However, Fengming Palace had been sealed at that time. All the palace attendants who had once returned to Fengming Palace returned to the chamber of maids first.
If you have a chance, you can still go out from the chamber of maids according to what you need in each palace.
The palace servants like Lao Nu who were once close to the queen are all in the Shenxing Department, so they are not allowed to go to the Chamberlain's Office, so we went to the Xin's Office."
There are many, many institutions in the palace, and it would take only a few hours to explain them all.
For the time being, let’s talk about the difference between the chamberlain’s office and the Xin’s office.
Chamber of Commerce: The eunuchs and palace maids do not know how to serve people as soon as they enter the palace. They also have to go through a long period of training and pass the exam before the head of the chamber and the teachers in charge nod and agree.
It's like after graduation, if there is a shortage of people in any palace, these graduated eunuchs and palace ladies will be sent to the masters to choose.
The House of Internal Affairs is roughly equivalent to a school dedicated to training eunuchs and maids.
Although the status here in the palace is extremely low, not even a serious servant. In a place like the palace where people eat people without spitting out their bones, it is not easy for people here to ensure that they can eat enough.
As for Xin Zhe's place, it can be said to be a world of difference even compared to the internal waiter's place.
Xinzhe's Office was specially set up in the palace to punish concubines and palace officials. Those who were guilty were sent to the Shenxing Division. Those who made mistakes but did not reach the level of guilt were naturally not suitable to be killed or other punishments, so they were
There is a place like Xin Zhe Suo.
Because it is a place specially designed for punishment, the palace servants here do the most painful, tiring and dirty work in the palace.
Not to mention having enough to eat, even if they want to live a good life, it is a luxury.
Qi Bao'er gently held Grandma Ye's hand, and her eyes were red because of the calluses on it that were so hard that it stung her, "Mammy."
Grandma Ye has not felt the word kindness in more than eight years.
Even if she heard the father-in-law in charge say that she and several maids, maids and eunuchs who had worked together in Fengming Palace were taken away by Princess Anle from the emperor, even if they were put into clean clothes.
They were taken out of the palace, even though they were already in the princess's mansion.
Grandma Ye only felt that Princess Anle was saving them for the Queen's sake, rather than for themselves. After all, she and Princess Anle were not very familiar with each other, and they had been separated for so many years.
After staying in a place like Xin Zhe's place for a long time, they were really scared. Even if they saw a living creature that was just a mouse, it would be hard for them not to wonder if the mouse had come to bite them to death on someone's order.
But now, she truly felt that Princess Anle gave her the warmth that she thought she had long forgotten, just because she was hers.
Grandma Ye, who had always been strong but was forced to kneel down and drink urine without saying a word, burst into tears at this moment.
He held Qi Bao'er's hand tightly and trembled with his lips for a long time, unable to speak.
The hand was painfully held, but Qi Bao'er didn't twitch, letting Grandma Ye hold it, and took out a handkerchief with her other hand to gently wipe away her tears.
"Don't cry. Everything will be fine in the future. I will protect you."
It is said that just like the master, the servants below will be like him. This is not entirely true, but there is some truth to it.
At least in the former Fengming Palace, the simple queen was followed by a group of palace people who were not evil. Nanny Ye and the then eldest palace maid Qiaoer were still protected by the golden light of merit.
It's really rare.
It is also true that good people will be rewarded. Not all the people that Grandma Ye met were white-eyed wolves. One of the maids serving in the emperor's palace had been favored by Grandma Ye. It was she who quietly sent her a message and begged her.
Save the lives of Grandma Ye and the others.
Otherwise, how could she, who had just returned to Beijing, know about the things that happened in the palace?
As for her "eyesman" in the palace, Emperor Qiming, he was once an emperor, could he notice the affairs of the lower-level palace people?
