Daming: My grandfather is Emperor Hongwu!

Chapter 59 Chunxiu

"Look up, let me see you!" Empress Ma said softly to the girl.

The latter still maintained the posture of opening his palms just now.Wen Yan didn't move, just stared at her own toes.

She is really a silly girl, Zhu Xiongying next to her laughed silently.

"What did your lady ask you?" Jia Gui was in a hurry, "Speak up!"

"Don't scare her!" Empress Ma asked softly, "Girl, what's your name?"

The naive girl raised her head, "Chunxiuer!"

"Bold, you have to call yourself a slave in front of your mother!" Jia Gui was furious.

"Go away!" Empress Ma seemed to see the girl right, and said with a smile, "Chunxiu'er? That's a good name, who gave it to you?"

"My mother!" The girl was still naive, with a few smiles on her lips.

"Hey, it's so distressing for a good girl to come to the palace to serve people!" Empress Ma sighed.

"Mother is dead!" the girl bowed her head and said, "Father married a bride, and the bride sent me in when she heard that the government had chosen someone to enter the palace and returned the money!"

"Where's your father?" Empress Ma said displeased, "He agreed?"

"My father sent me to the government!" the girl whispered.

"If there is a stepmother, there must be a stepfather!" Empress Ma gritted her teeth and thought about something, "From now on, you will stay by my side, do you want to?"

Chunxiu still bowed her head and remained silent.

"Silly girl, thank you for the great grace!" Jia Gui was so anxious that he stomped on the maidservant, thank you! "Chunxiu opened her mouth cautiously, and took two steps back in fear.

"Let's go, follow me!" Empress Ma smiled, and turned back to the soft sedan chair, "Jia Gui, go to Concubine Ning and tell others that I want it!" After speaking, her tone suddenly became severe, " Tell her, don't keep those cats and dogs in the future, people outside will not have enough to eat, what kind of treasure does she use animals in the palace!"

"Grandmother, my grandson looks at that girl as a fool!" Zhu Xiongying said in the sedan chair.

"I don't know if she's stupid or not!" Empress Ma stroked his hair, "I knew that girl was not bad!"

"How do you know she's not bad?" Zhu Xiongying asked again.

"Look at her eyes!" Empress Ma smiled and hugged her grandson tightly, "In this world, vicious women always have smiles in their eyes. Brother Ying, remember, in the future, the more you treat her Hello, the more a woman smiles at you, the more you have to guard against her, grandma can't be with you forever, you have to learn to be careful!"

To Zhu Xiongying's ears, Zhu Xiongying felt a little confused and confused.

But he remembered two points. One was that Queen Ma said that she could not be with him forever, and the other was that a woman might harm him!

In Kunning Palace, the fire dragon was burning vigorously, warm as spring.

Zhu Xiongying was sitting at the table with a small pot of hazelnuts and pine nuts brought in as a tribute from Liaodong.And some, tools to smash those nuts.

With a click, he smashed a hazelnut and handed the fruit inside to the horse queen next to him.

The latter smiled gratifiedly, "Grandma has bad teeth, so she doesn't like to eat these!" Then she laughed, "Eat less, we'll have dinner later!"

At this time, Jia Gui walked in quickly from the outside.

Seeing Zhu Xiongying smashing nuts, he quickly knelt beside him, "How can I let His Highness come down for such rough work, and my slave will peel it for you!"

After finishing speaking, he took a small hammer and smashed it seriously.

"Come back from Concubine Ning?" Empress Ma leaned back and said with a smile.

"Yes, the servant just came back from there!"

"What did you say over there?" Queen Ma asked again.

Jia Gui's hands paused for a moment, "Ning Fei Niang Niang said that she is not strict, please punish her!"

"Hey!" Empress Ma sighed slightly, "She also lived a hard life with the emperor back then, why has it changed now?"

Concubine Ning, that is, Concubine Guo Ning, is the younger sister of Gong Changhou and Wu Dinghou, the nobles of Huaixi.She has the tenth son of the emperor, Zhu Tan, and two princesses.

Zhu Tan's title is Lu, and he is still studying in the palace, but has not yet become a feudal clan.

But Zhu Xiongying did know that this kid was a short-lived ghost.He liked alchemy and took drugs, and died at a young age.Zhu Yuanzhang was angry at his son's failure to live up to expectations, so he gave Huang the posthumous title.

It's okay to die, but after a few hundred years, King Lu Huang's grave was pulled up, and a lot of treasures were unearthed.Among them are the only ones handed down from generation to generation, the nine crowns of the princes of the Ming Dynasty, and the Pibian (a kind of hat).

"The good days have passed for many years, and people's hearts have changed!" Zhu Xiongying said casually while eating pine nuts.

"My brother Ying is right!" Empress Ma laughed, "You understand things better than adults!" Then she asked Jia Gui, "That girl Chunxiu, why is she always being beaten?"

"Your maidservant really asked!" Jia Gui laughed, with wrinkles all over his face, "She is a new maid in the palace, she doesn't know the rules, she is stupid!"

"It's nothing more than being stupid, and I'm still blind!" Jia Gui continued to laugh, "It is said that on the first day I came here, I couldn't find anyone. The people from Concubine Ning's side have been looking for a long time. Guess what happened?"

"Don't be fooled!" Empress Ma laughed.

"She went to sleep in a place where no one was around!" Jia Gui laughed, "I have been working in the palace for so many years, but I have never heard of such a courageous servant! When I found her, she was still asleep! "

"Hehehe!" Empress Ma also found it interesting and laughed, "What else?"

"She's at Concubine Ning's side, and it's common to be lazy. If you can't see her, you don't know where she is!" Jia Gui continued to speak, saying vividly, "It's fine to be lazy, and she eats snacks from Concubine Ning's side. Steal Forget about eating, and take it back to your room!"

"One time when Sun Buren went to check the ward, the girl's quilt was full of snack scum!" Jia Gui laughed, "People over there said that that girl Chunxiu is stupid and stupid, and she has seven orifices. Don't know anything!"

"Concubine Ning has already said that if she can't teach her well, she will be kicked out of the palace!"

Once you enter the palace gate, it's as deep as the sea, whether it's a maid of honor or a concubine, you will spend your whole life in the palace to die.Even if they can go out, they are old and have passed the age of marriage. After leaving the palace, they will either find someone to marry, or they will be lonely.

After entering the palace, the only way for the maid to get out while she is young is to be too stupid and be returned by the palace.

"Although it's hard to be a servant in the palace, life is better than outside after all. She's a girl, what can she do outside? Why don't she be betrayed by her stepmother again!" Empress Ma sighed.

"Whether it's for sale or not, at least after leaving the palace, she is a free person. Not to mention being trapped in this besieged city for the rest of her life!" Zhu Xiongying opened his mouth, clapped his hands, and said to Jia Gui, "Don't smash it, don't eat it, eat it A few are enough!" As he said, he pointed to the uneaten nuts on the table, "You are rewarded!"

He guessed that the girl was pretending to be stupid, even if she was really stupid in this deep palace, she would not dare to act like this.That girl was betting that as long as she didn't die, she would have a chance to be kicked out.

"Thank you grandson, slave!" Jia Gui laughed loudly, then grabbed those pine nuts and hazelnuts, stuffed them into his mouth and began to chew.

On the other hand, Empress Ma was thoughtful, and shouted to the outside, "Chunxiu, come in!"

Chunxiu came in slowly, with unmelted snow and a little bit of mud still on his shoes.

"Come here!" Empress Ma beckoned to her, looking into his eyes, "Tell me the truth, are you pretending to be stupid?"

Immediately, Chunxiu took two steps back in fear, her eyes drooped, and her body trembled from fear.

"Don't be afraid, I won't let people beat you!" Empress Ma said softly, "If you really want to go out, I will let people send you out. What Brother Ying said is that although life in the palace is easy, life is not easy." No taste. You have to serve others like a cow and a horse, and you will be beaten and scolded!"

After speaking, Empress Ma said again, "I have told the emperor more than once that these people are no longer needed in this palace, and fewer court ladies and eunuchs are selected, even if there are fewer crimes. But alas!"

After a pause, he said again, "You can't help yourself. The stepmother sold you for money. If you want to go out, I will let you go out. After you go out and live a good life, I can give you an oral order. You go back and tell Your father, tell your stepmother and your local officials."

"It's just that the empress said that if she dares to treat you harshly, the empress will let them be arrested and sent to prison!" At this point, Empress Ma took Chunxiu's hand, "Girl, we two met once, I won't Let you come to a bad end!"

Bean-sized teardrops slid down Chunxiu's cheeks.

At this moment, her dull eyes became vivid.
