Raiders of Hades

Chapter 57

Su Mifang lowered her head and stood quietly by the side. She was taken aback when she saw Shen Xi standing beside the queen. Shen Xi was the king's servant. He made a mistake, but unexpectedly, he is now by the queen's side, which shows that the rumor is somewhat credible.

Shen Xi stretched out his hand to help Fei Li get off the soft sedan chair, and said in a low voice: "The person here is Su Mifang, a fifth-rank maidservant, and a capable old man in front of the Empress Dowager."

In just one sentence, with his back turned to everyone, Shen Xi explained Su Mifang's origin clearly.

Fei Li was slightly taken aback, she didn't expect Shen Xi to be so kind, she nodded slightly, and then walked towards the palace.

The people of Xirong are tough and tough. They used to live by water and grass. Over the past hundreds of years, they have inherited Sinicization and imitated the Central Plains everywhere. The houses built today are not far from the Jokhang Kingdom, and they look a little close.However, there are also differences. The folk customs are tough, and the citizens are relatively more open. Compared with the Jokhang Kingdom, the layout of the house is more transparent, and the carvings on the eaves are more rough.

Along the way, the palace is very well built, with sparse flowers and trees, small bridges and flowing water, and although the pavilions are not as delicate and gorgeous as the Jokhang Kingdom, they still have a unique exotic flavor.Entering the main hall, the decoration inside is even more resplendent and resplendent. The shaggy curtains block the blazing sunlight. Seeing this place, Fei Li was taken aback and narrowed her eyes. "Shuyiji" volume: "Mackerel gauze comes out of the South China Sea, Quanshi (referring to sharks) weaves it latently, and it is a dragon gauze. Its price is more than a hundred gold. If you think it is clothes, it will not get wet when you enter the water."

Shark silk is extremely expensive, because the output is small, even the queens in the harem of the Jokhang Kingdom would not be so extravagant and wasteful. There are regulations and grades for making clothes with shark silk.

Not to mention whose idea it is to make this crocodile into a curtain and hang it in the palace, if it is spread, Fei Li will inevitably bear the notoriety of being extravagant and extravagant.Before the people arrive, the pit has been dug, which is really surprising.

Fei Li glanced at everyone and said, "Let's all step back, I'm a little tired."

After saluting, everyone bowed down and filed out, feeling a little baffled in their hearts. It stands to reason that the queen should admonish everyone first, show off her prestige, and show off her aura, but... who would have thought that they would retreat like this. It was very surprising, and the new queen was really unpredictable for a while.

Shen Mifang looked at the main hall from a distance, a glint flashed in her eyes, and then quietly disappeared around the corner of the palace.

Yuezhu and Minghui commanded people to bring hot water, and Feili took a hot bath comfortably, changed into comfortable clothes, and casually tied up a girl, holding a cup of hot tea, and then looked at Bai Xin said, "Mommy, what do you think?"

Bai Xin didn't change her face, and said in a low voice: "It's too gorgeous. Wealth and honor always attract people's attention and hatred."

Fei Li nodded, and said after a long time: "Mama, it's really surprising here, but I don't know who came up with the idea. The person who prepared the palace was Prime Minister Quan Linfeng, and the person in charge here was the female officer in front of the Queen Mother. As for whether there are any concubines among the maids and servants here, who knows, it's really interesting."

Bai Xin's complexion was a little ugly, she looked at Fei Li and sighed, and said: "Princess, if anyone in the Jokhang Kingdom marries you back, he must respectfully respect you, and whoever dares to use these low-handed tricks, but when it comes to This is different, after all, it is a foreign country, the prince and the princess are beyond reach, we have to be more careful in every step."

Fei Li's eyes became hot when she heard Bai Xin mentioning her parents, and she hurriedly lowered her head to look at the pure gold hollowed-out teapot inlaid with precious stones. Each of the hollowed-out holes was embedded with a colored gemstone. Seeing this pot is really dazzling.

A small teapot can be so luxurious, this whole palace really cost a lot of money, this man is really generous...

Fei Li was really tired, so she went to rest on the couch under Bai Xin's urging, she was getting married tomorrow, and she was still tired.When I was about to fall asleep, I suddenly remembered the concubine Bai Qiluo Qi that Jin Nuo had said about. I don’t know what kind of person could make Jin Harrier think so much, and finally fell asleep with a little bit of sadness. Maybe only in Dreams are the happiest!

Zhuhua Palace.

The Zhuhua Palace is the place where the empress dowagers of each dynasty and generation of the Xirong Kingdom live up their lives. It is located in the center of the Xirong harem, only a little bit away from the empress's Liuhua Palace. This shows how important the position of the queen mother is in the harem .Whether a person is important or not depends on your status and the location where you live, the norms are universal, otherwise, the concubine who has been convicted will not have to go to the cold palace, and it will save trouble if she is confined in the same place.

"Did you see me?" Ci He rang again in the bedroom of Zhuhua Palace with an unfamiliar voice.

"If you go back to the queen mother, the slave will see it." Su Mifang bent down on the ground and replied respectfully.

The queen mother took a look at Su Mifang, and then said, "How?"

Su Mifang narrated everything she had seen Fei Li word for word, and finally said: "Is it difficult for the servant to see if the queen is the kind of crazy person and can act steadily?"

The empress dowager's eyes sank slightly, so she stopped talking, waved her hand for a long time and said, "Go back, I'll take good care of you."

"Yes, the servant obeys the order." Su Mifang didn't dare to speak too much, bowed and retreated, and when she walked out of the hall, she felt sweaty on her palms, and the Queen Mother was unhappy...

Just as she was about to leave, unexpectedly, she met Ye Lan. Ye Lan was the most capable person in front of the Queen Mother, and she was waiting for the fourth rank.Su Mifang hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "My servant has seen Ye Daizhao."

"Servant Su Shang, please, you and I don't need to be so polite, after all, we are all serving the Queen Mother." Ye Lan said with a smile, and helped Su Mifang up with her own hands.

Su Mifang's body trembled slightly, but she got up with the momentum, but said in her mouth: "Master Daizhao has a kind heart, and slaves don't dare to break the rules."

Ye Lan still smiled lightly, and asked casually, "Is Su Shangshi coming back from the palace?"

"Yes." Su Mifang replied in a low voice, but her heart tightened.

"Oh." Ye Lan responded with a long voice, and the response was really heart-wrenching.

Su Mifang sighed heavily in her heart, and then said in a low voice: "I think the queen mother must miss the queen's body. I came to Xirong after traveling through mountains and rivers. In order not to worry the queen mother, I came back and told the queen everything. Well, the empress dowager can feel relieved after hearing the words." Su Mifang paused a little at this point, and added: "The empress dowager's health and well-being are the blessings of the servants."

Su Mifang's short sentence has several meanings. It means that she did not come back to the palace casually. It is the queen mother who wants to know the queen's situation, but she can't say that. The one who came back voluntarily said that everything is fine with the queen.This not only shows her loyalty to the queen mother, but also tactfully maintains the image of the queen mother, and more importantly, it also reveals an important message to Ye Lan that everything is fine with the queen.

Ye Lan has always known that Su Mifang is a prudent and prudent person. Hearing what she said today, she knew that she was indeed a smart person. It was not just luck to become a servant, so she smiled lightly: "Sure enough, Su Shangshi has a heart." Man, it is much more satisfying to have you in front of the Queen Mother."

Su Mifang breathed a sigh of relief, bent down and said, "If there is nothing else, I will leave, and it is not good to see people in the palace for a long time."

Ye Lan waved her hand and said, "Go."

Only then did Su Mifang turn around and walk out of the Zhuhua Palace. She breathed a sigh of relief when she walked out of the corner of the Zhuhua Palace. beads of sweat.Looking up at the sky, squinting your eyes slightly, life must go by, people must live on, I don't know how long I will be so frightened...
