Queen's scheming

Chapter 241

Mother Jiang asked suspiciously, "Which Aunt Yu?"

The little palace maid replied quickly: "Your maidservant asked clearly, this Aunt Yu is by the side of the young master Mi Chenghong who was born in Fuguogong's mansion, and she said that she is now helping young master Hong manage the inner courtyard."

Nanny Jiang frowned, is Fuguo Duke's Mansion in such a mess now?The first young master was born in a dignified lineage, but the one who will inherit the position of the son in the future actually let an aunt take over the role, so he was displeased and said: "You go and refuse, but after all, he is a member of the Fuguo Duke's Mansion, and it is reasonable to come to the Queen's house." We shouldn't stop the empress from visiting the sick, but this status is too low, we have no control over it, why don't we wait for the empress to wake up in the future."

Mother Jiang said this clearly, but she directly rejected it, but an aunt is not qualified to visit the queen, but because she took care of the face of the queen mother and imperial concubine Duanjing, she said it tactfully, as long as As long as this Concubine Yu has a little brain, she should understand what Jiang Nanny meant, what to say when the Empress Empress wakes up, but just to say, if Shen Qingyi wakes up, it can't be called sick.

The little maid was about to pass on a message, but it was Yu He who came out from the inner hall and asked softly, "What made you angry? Why is your face so ugly?"

Jiang Nanny glanced at the little maid, who understood, and immediately stepped forward to take the small round tea tray with black lacquer blessings and longevity patterns from Yuhe's hand, and said with a smile: "Aunt Yuhe, rest for a while, this servant will help aunt to make this tea Put the plates in the small kitchen, and it won't be too late to send a message."

After the little palace maid had gone far away, Mother Jiang glanced around and said, "Although our mother is ill now, she shouldn't be treated so lightly. Even if the one from Qinzhu Palace gave birth to a little princess, It is also the status of the imperial concubine, the Fuguo government is deceiving people too much, and it is too unruly to let an aunt who has no rank come to visit her sick!"

"The aunt of Fuguo Duke's Mansion?" Yu He suddenly thought of it, and asked casually: "But the one called Aunt Yu?"

Mother Jiang looked at Yuhe's appearance and asked, "What? You actually know the aunt of Fuguo Duke's Mansion?"

Yuhe pulled Nanny Jiang to stand under the shade of the tree, talked about Aunt Yu's affairs, and finally said: "The empress treats her differently, she is also the most well-behaved person , even our empress praised her intelligence, but it is rare for her to have the heart to enter the palace despite being scolded, it is not in vain for our empress to spare her life."

Mother Jiang nodded and said: "In this way, Aunt Yu is quite a character. The girl who was selected by the Queen Mother to be placed next to Concubine Tang must have her merits. She is a palace maid. To be able to go to Fuguo Duke's Mansion to be as imposing as the wife of the first wife is considered extremely skillful. Since the queen treats her differently, then just ask someone to come in."

After Jiang Nanny finished speaking, she beckoned and ordered a young lady in the hall, Aunt Xuanyu, to come in.

Aunt Yu entered the Ningsu Palace in an orderly manner, Yu He stepped forward to hold her hand, and asked, "Should I call you Aunt Yu or Yunlu now?"

Yun Lu is not hypocritical at all, seeing Yu He's face full of smiles, she hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter what Miss Yu He calls you, it's just a title, you can do whatever you like, if you don't mind, just call me Let’s call it Er Yuniang, that’s what everyone in Fuguo’s mansion is addressing now.”

Yu He nodded with a smile, and said, "How come this hour, half an hour later, we will have lunch?"

There is a reason for Yuhe to ask this question. With Yuniang's current status, it is impossible for her to stay in the palace for meals, let alone Shen Qingyi is still in a coma. After returning to Fuguo Duke's Mansion, it is already past the meal time. It's been an hour or two.

Yu Niang's complexion changed slightly, and she said in embarrassment: "You know who I am now, but I'm just an aunt. There are so many thresholds in the palace, and they have been inspected layer by layer. Even here at this hour, I still spent a lot of money. , otherwise I am afraid that it will not be able to pass through even if it is passed on."

Yu He didn't say much, just said: "Since it's all here, let's use some with us in a while, so as not to starve to death. You have also worked in the palace, so you know how hungry you are."

Yuniang didn't push back, and responded in a low voice.

"How is the empress now? I intend to come to the palace to visit, but the rules in the mansion are strict, and I am afraid that Tang Guifei will recognize me. With her temperament, if she yells out, no one will be happy. Later I heard that Concubine Tang Gui has been nesting in Zhaoyang Palace, never going out, so I dared to beg the concubine, today I begged for a long time, she has been in a coma for more than a year, haven't seen you yet? "Yu Niang asked the doubts in her heart.

Yuhe sighed and said: "It's rare that you have a heart, our empress, alas... you can go in and see for yourself."

Yuniang followed Yuhe into the Nuan Pavilion, but look at the large canopy bed carved with red sandalwood, Shen Qingyi was wearing a light pink pearl-colored jacket with a vertical collar, covered with a cherry-red Shu brocade quilt, which complemented her complexion very well. It was like falling asleep.

Yu Niang sighed and said: "It is the empress, even if she is sick, she also has a beautiful appearance. Looking at her complexion, she looks very good, and she doesn't seem to be sick? Could it be that the empress has never woken up? Just Can't you lie down like this for more than a year?"

Yu He looked at Shen Qingyi's appearance and said distressedly: "At the time when it was the most serious, all the imperial doctors said that it was impossible to save her life, but fortunately, Baicao Xiaosheng was in the palace and used her own special medicine to save her life. Over the past year, the decoction has been continued, but the body has taken care of itself, and people look energetic, but they just don’t wake up, Baicao Xiaosheng said, maybe it will be like this for the rest of his life.”

Yuniang frowned, and the little maid following behind Yuniang quickly raised her head and glanced at Shen Qingyi who was on the bed, and quickly lowered her head.

Yuhe talked to Yuniang for a while, and when it was time to eat, Yuniang took the little maid beside her to wash her hands.

"The servant has to remind my aunt that there is a bright future waiting for my aunt in the mansion. Whether my aunt wants to be a good wife or be sent to the prison in Shuntian Mansion, you have to know what you want. Don't think that you can escape by making friends with a few maids in the palace. The concubine Shi Zi said that as long as my aunt does this well, you will be able to manage Master Hong's yard in the future. If my aunt can't do this well Well, then in Shuntian Mansion, there will be one more maidservant going out of the palace privately, changing her face, and defrauding the Duke's mansion!" The little maid changed her previous low-browed and pleasing eyes, pointed at Yuniang and said sharply.

The concubine Shizi also told this little maidservant that as long as she can help Aunt Yu complete this matter, she will be promoted to be a concubine. Thinking of her good life in the future, the little maid raised her head higher and higher.

Yu Niang glanced at her, took out a small box the size of a fingernail from the small jacket she wore, stuffed the medicine powder inside into the crevice of her little fingernail, and turned out of the clean room dignifiedly...
