Chapter 6 Strange

Looking at the majestic high wall in front of him, Cheng Muqing sighed heavily in his heart.Early this morning, Jinxi came to him with a post, saying that the queen called him.You don't need to think about it, it must be because of Lin Heng.

In any case, it was the flesh that fell from her body.Although they didn't kiss each other, but her son was beaten, she must do something.

For example, call her, the princess, and ask "how do you manage the house?" and so on.

As for this situation, she had expected it when she called Dr. Wang to see her yesterday.After all, Imperial Physician Wang is a member of the palace, and he will definitely report to the queen when he returns to the palace.

The imperial city is dense, solemn and silent, with long official roads and high vermilion walls on both sides.

Passing through the city wall, bypassing one road after another, in front of you is a majestic and tall palace——

Zhengyang Palace.

Now Queen Lu lives.

Cheng Muqing took a deep breath, and waited for the maid to summon her.I don't want the maid to come out, but she hasn't been summoned.

"Princess Qi, the empress has just rested, please wait here a little longer." The maid lowered her eyebrows and spoke respectfully.

But Cheng Muqing understood the deep meaning hidden in it - punished to stand.

"Yes." Cheng Muqing smiled, but felt bitter in his heart.

She knew she was going to be punished.But she also admitted that, after all, it was her negligence in management.As the head of the family, he has never taken the affairs of the palace seriously, which made all the servants think that they don't want to see the prince.

The noisy breeze blew away the broken hair from her ears and temples.

I don't know how long I stood there before the maid came and called her into the palace.

The hall was steaming hot, and the hairs all over Cheng Muqing's body stood on end.

"Princess Qi."

In the center of the hall, there is a bead curtain hanging down.The bead curtain is crystal clear and hangs quietly.The warm sun outside the house shines in through the paper windows, and several colored lights are refracted through the bead curtains.

"My son has seen the queen mother." Cheng Muqing knelt down and bowed, she was afraid to look at Queen Lu.After all, she dreamed that she was wearing a phoenix suit yesterday, and now she is still a little guilty.

That feeling is hard to describe, like "I'm coveting your position"?
"King Qi was injured by a servant?" Behind the bead curtain, a dignified and noble face with a slightly rich appearance could be vaguely seen.

"Yes." Cheng Muqing replied, "After this incident, my servant has already changed the people around the lord."

"That's it? Those people must be accomplices." Empress Lu's voice was majestic, "Those who dare to violate the royal authority should be dispatched!"

"It's my son's carelessness." Cheng Muqing hurriedly replied, "My son was also angry for a while, so I dealt with it directly."

"That's all... I heard that you sent someone to Dali Temple. I have already asked Dali Temple to kill that boy in the street." Empress Lu's eyes flashed a trace of cruelty, "I want to show the people in the world, our prince No matter what happens, he is still the prince of Dajin!"

Cheng Muqing lowered his head and did not express any thoughts.

Yesterday she told the imperial physician that it was the servant in the family who hurt the prince, so there must be evidence.That's why I sent the boy to Dali Temple, but I didn't expect that now the queen would be Ling Chi...

"Princess Qi, if you are not very good at housekeeping, I can send two nuns to help you..."

"Mother, don't worry, my son has learned this way in his boudoir, this time it was just negligence, and there will be no next time."

"Hmph." Queen Lu snorted coldly, and said no more.

The hourglass in front of the desk kept turning, and the fine sand fell, making a barely audible "rustling" sound.

After an unknown amount of time, Cheng Muqing's thighs became numb from kneeling.She pounded it carefully, and couldn't stop complaining in her heart that 'there are many rules in the palace'.You know, even when she was a palace maid in Qiguo Palace, she had never kneeled like this before. -
"Princess Qi."

"Here!" Cheng Muqing subconsciously straightened his back.

"You and King Qi..." She paused, "How have you been lately?"

"Okay, very good." Strange, she should know that she and Lin Heng are just a superficial couple, right?
"Well, I hope to see the little grandson in the coming year." Queen Lu's tone was quite cheerful.

Grandson?Did she take my perfunctory seriously this time?Cheng Muqing was confused, but there was a shy smile on his face.

"Let's go back." Maybe it was because she was in a better mood, Empress Lu didn't care too much about it anymore.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Muqing hurriedly saluted and left.Although I can't wait to leave in my heart, but on the surface, I still have to act like a respectful and courteous lady.

Outside the palace, Jinxi was waiting with downcast eyes, when she saw her, she hurried forward.

With her support, Cheng Muqing limped out of the imperial city.

Sitting in the carriage, she rubbed her legs and couldn't help complaining, "Whoever's daughter-in-law has to stand at a distance. The kneeling time seems a little too long this time, right?"

"Princess!" Jin Xi winked at her, reminding her that she had just left the palace.

Cheng Muqing didn't care much, and sat lazily on the bed.

Why is the queen so moody today?She murmured in her heart, but she didn't think deeply.

With a horseshoe, he will return to Prince Qi's mansion in a short while.

After returning home, Cheng Muqing did not go back to the back room to rest directly, but went to the kitchen.

Wenlan Courtyard has a stove room, which is clean and tidy, with all pots and pans.

Cheng Muqing worked as a maid in the Qiguo Palace two years ago, and was also a maid in the imperial dining room.

That old man Qihuang is delicious and lustful.

The chefs in the imperial city cook delicious and delicious food.At that time, she was the little cook of the Imperial Dining Room, so she secretly learned cooking skills.

Although not superb, it is better than most cooks today. (I think)
"Princess, you asked me to prepare this." Jin Xi took small steps to the stove and opened a straw basket.

Among the straw baskets were evenly-sized yellow peaches.

Cheng Muqing rolled up his sleeves, and together with Jinxi, cleaned and peeled the yellow peaches.Then put it into the pot, add rock sugar, and cook on low heat.

"Why does the princess want to eat rock candy yellow peaches?" Jin Xi asked with a smile.

Cheng Muqing has a habit of eating yellow peaches in rock sugar when he is sick.Now Lin Heng is her other little life. Lin Heng's illness is equivalent to her illness, so it is natural to do and eat.

"My lord is sick." Cheng Muqing said while looking at the fire, "Not only will I make rock candy yellow peaches for my lord today, but I will also make delicious food for him in the future, watch him eat, and make him fat!"

Ever since she realized that the two of them would be injured together just like in the dream, she kept replaying the scene of Lin Heng being killed and she and him bleeding into rivers in her mind.

Lin Heng is really too thin, it's not good to be too thin, and it's easy to get hurt.It has to be chubby, the kind that has been chopped off and is covered by a layer of fat!
"Wow~" Jin Xi expressed surprise, "Princess, did you receive any stimulation yesterday?" In her perception, the concubine and the prince are just superficial couples, why does the concubine suddenly care about the prince now? !
"Yeah...it's very exciting." Cheng Muqing sighed.

God knows, she is still a little hard to believe now.She would live and die with Lin Heng!
"Wait a while, you go to Doctor Wang." Cheng Muqing said, "I'll give the prince a good checkup."

"Yes." Jinxi hastily agreed.

After the rock sugar peaches were ready, Cheng Muqing scooped out a small basin with a spoon and sent them outside to cool down.After a while, I put it into the lunch box and took it to Jingyuan.

The servants on duty today worked very hard. When they saw Cheng Muqing coming, they all saluted loudly.

"This group of people usually see you so solemnly." Jin Xi whispered beside Cheng Muqing, "It seems that you were really intimidated by them last night."

When Cheng Muqing heard this, he just smiled.

After entering the room, Ah Feng was the first to greet her, "My servant greets the princess."

"Yes." Cheng Muqing smiled, "You should step back first."

"Princess Princess..."

"Ok?"

"My lord seems to be getting sicker today." A Feng said, "Just now, the servant fed me medicine, but my lord didn't drink it."

"Okay, I see." Cheng Muqing nodded, "I will take care of him."

After that, she stood up and walked into the back room.
