Chapter three hundred and ninety second tacit understanding
Yinzhen seemed unconscious and only lowered his head to take a sip of soup.
Ji Ling watched him eating, always with his head lowered and his eyes closed, with a pure heart and few desires. He guessed that the fourth master had also been severely constrained by the royal rules since he was a child.
No wonder he likes to watch himself eating - probably his food always tastes so delicious, and seeing it in his eyes is another form of satisfaction.
Ji Ling thought so, reached out and picked up a chopstick of food, and put it on the plate in front of Yinzhen.
The serving eunuch was about to take down his chopsticks, but when he saw Concubine Chen personally coming to grab the food, he immediately retracted his chopsticks, glanced at the scene on the table, and stepped aside.
When the hot dishes were finished and Ji Ling had just grabbed a piece of pastry, Su Peisheng sneaked in with a troubled expression and whispered in Yinzhen's ear that the Queen was here.
Yinzhen was startled - the queen never bothered him when he was eating, so there must be something important going on.
He put down his chopsticks, took the towel, wiped his mouth, and nodded slightly to Su Peisheng.
When Su Peisheng went out, he led the queen in.
Uranara held the hand of the palace maid next to her, greeted the emperor in a dignified manner, and saluted.
The main hall of the Yangxin Hall was so vast that the queen could not see it clearly when she first came in. It was only when she stood up that she saw that Concubine Chen was also with the emperor.
Moreover, the two of them shared a small dining table - their seats were affectionately next to each other.
The dining table next to it that was supposed to be used to serve the emperor's meals was completely unruly and was pushed aside in a mess.
Ulanara's breathing was stagnant, and the hands in his sleeves slightly grasped the skirt of his clothes.
When Ji Ling saw the Queen coming in, he went up to her and said, "I would like to send my regards to the Queen. May the Queen be blessed with peace and happiness!"
Uranala pursed her lips, squeezed out a smile that was as indifferent as white water, and said in a medium-low voice: "I didn't know that Concubine Chen was here. It's not a coincidence that I came here."
She paused, then said with a semi-serious smile: "Your Majesty, you won't blame me, right?"
Yinzhen heard that she didn't get to the point for a long time, so he asked directly: "Why did the Queen come here?"
Ulanara stopped talking and glanced at Ji Ling.
Ji Ling said knowingly: "Your Majesty, I have to go back and look after the sixth elder brother and the third princess."
After she finished speaking, she prepared to apply oil on her soles and run away.
Yinzhen glanced at the queen quickly, with a hint of impatience in his eyes, and just nodded and said: "You go back first, I will see you when I have time."
This sentence was naturally addressed to Ji Ling. When the queen heard it, the look on her face could not be concealed for a moment, and she became a little sad.
Ji Ling quickly saluted Yinzhen and blessed the queen before walking out. When he reached the threshold of Yangxin Hall, he heard Yinzhen ask from behind: "Do you have a companion when you come?"
?”
She turned around and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, we have a shoulder carriage. Even if we don't have one, it's only a few steps away? It's only a short walk away."
Yinzhen smiled and said: "Go."
Ulanara was listening nearby, and felt that the two of them were talking familiarly and intimately, as if they were at home, with a tacit understanding that could not be interrupted. She, the queen of the middle palace, stood beside her, and she seemed like an outsider.
Ji Ling walked down the steps, and Su Peisheng walked to the side of the carriage. Seeing that she was helped by the palace maid to get on the carriage and sit firmly on the carriage, Su Peisheng sang in person: "Concubine Chen - get on!"
The shoulder cart was lifted steadily. Ji Ling was already a little sleepy after eating, but the shoulder cart was carried swaying along the way, as if she was sitting on a cradle, which made her want to sleep even more.
After returning to Chengqian Palace, I went to the East and West Nuan Pavilions in the front hall to see a pair of children respectively - both children slept soundly.
She lowered her voice and said to Nanny Chen: "We can't let them sleep for a long time. We have to wake them up in half an hour at most, otherwise they won't be able to sleep at night."
Aunt Chen nodded repeatedly and said: "Don't worry, Madam. I know that Brother Six just drank milk and became sleepy. The Third Princess was playing with Brother Six. Seeing Brother Six fall asleep, she also fell asleep.
——The two children had just fallen asleep, that is, they were standing before and after the mother-in-law."
Ji Ling nodded and walked to the back hall. Qixi had already incense filled the Nuang Pavilion and it was very warm.
As soon as she entered, Qixi came forward to help her take off her cloak and said, "Master, have you had your meal at the Yangxin Hall?"
Ji Ling nodded, but Qixi brought out a basket of exquisite meat buns, a plate of shrimp dumplings, and a basket of steamed siomai, got in and showed it to her, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that the master will be hungry, so I have some prepared here."
, since the master has finished his meal, the slave sent it back to the dining room to warm it up - the master took a nap at noon, and when he got up, he happened to be hungry, so he used it as an afternoon snack."
Ji Ling's eyes lit up when she saw the exquisite meat buns, and she quickly reached out to stop Qixi: "Keep this meat buns!"
The name of Linglong Pork Buns sounds cute, but it actually tastes like barbecued pork buns - the outside is made of flexible fermented dough, shaped into a cage shape, the dough is thick, has a wheat flavor, and the meat filling is wrapped inside.
Sweet juice, very sweet and just to Ji Ling's liking.
They are all made small and delicate, and are lined up in a drawer, looking very cute.
Qixi watched her master finish half a plate of exquisite meat buns after a while, and couldn't help but wonder: Could it be that the master was accompanying the emperor in the Yangxin Hall and he wasn't full yet?
The Hall of Nourishing Heart.
Yinzhen has already retreated.
Ulanala stood in front of Yinzhen, with her back straight, but her voice was low and low: "He Hui has always been a dare to think and do, which is not surprising - but no matter how brave the child is,
There must be a clue. She actually dared to deliver medicine to that guard! Fortunately, the emperor reminded me and ordered people to follow, so he stopped me, otherwise..."
As she spoke, she clasped her hands and frowned: "Let alone a princess with golden branches and jade leaves, she is an ordinary family, a daughter's family who has not left the palace, giving and receiving in private like this..."
Yinzhen raised his eyes and glanced at her with a frown.
Seeing his expression, the queen immediately ended the topic wisely.
Yinzhen put down the tea cup in his hand, stretched out his hand and rubbed his brow.
Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, the queen said cautiously: "This child Hehui, I have seen it since I was a child, and I have some temporary feelings. But how can we rely on temporary moods and what is in my heart when it comes to marriage? She is young after all.
, I don’t know how to detect people - when a child tastes love for the first time, it is naturally difficult to let go. I am now thinking that if people stare at her more, if the two children no longer see each other, they will naturally be able to
Calm down, otherwise, according to Hehui's temperament - once she gets married to Mongolia, the couple will have a quarrel, but we really can't let her say anything shocking!"
The two of them were sitting opposite each other. When they were talking about having a headache, they heard a slight noise coming from outside the hall, and Su Peisheng's voice was rising and falling. Yinzhen frowned and shouted: "Su Peisheng!"
The door of the palace was opened a crack, and Su Peisheng hurriedly stretched his head out and then got in.
Yinzhen asked: "Who is outside?"
A look of embarrassment appeared on Su Peisheng's face, he stuttered for a moment, and then said: "Returning to the emperor, it is... it is Luo Erhan, the imperial guard, who came to plead guilty to the emperor."
