Chapter 602 Back door
The queen's cries echoed above the harem for a long time.
In the side hall of Xianfu Palace, Concubine Jing knelt in front of the Buddha statue enshrined in the small side room. If she could not vaguely hear the chanting in her mouth, Xiang Chou would have suspected that the empress had become a statue.
After a long time, Concubine Jing kowtowed three times in front of the Buddha statue, and then stood up with her fragrant hands. She came out of the inner room, sat down by the window of the second room as usual, and began to read Buddhist scriptures.
After a while, the second prince, dressed in armor, walked in quickly. When he saw his son, Concubine Jing had a smile on his face, "Yao'er, why are you here?"
She ordered Xiangchou, "Go and bring some of the cakes I made early to the second prince, put them in a food box, and let the second prince take them out of the palace later, and give them to the second prince's concubine."
"Yes!" Xiangchou knew that the mother and son had something to say, and after going out, she thoughtfully closed the door.
Concubine Jing wiped the sweat off her son's face with a handkerchief, "Are you still training in the Shenji camp? Did you receive any errands?"
"My son recently followed General Xie and learned a lot about weapons. If you want to build an elite army, you can't rely on soldiers alone. In today's army, there are many things to improve weapons. My son thought about it. I think, when it comes to marching and fighting, I am afraid that no one will be able to compare with the fifth emperor brother, if possible, my son wants to do something in the field of weapons in the future."
Concubine Jing listened quietly, nodding from time to time, "It's fine if you like it, just don't forget that you must act upright, even if you can't make meritorious deeds, you can be an upright person and be selfless in your heart!"
"Son, remember!" Xiao Changyao hurriedly stood up and sat down after listening to his mother's instruction.
"Mother, when my son came, I heard that the emperor was going to send the eighth prince to be raised by the Empress Dowager in Mount Wutai. Mother, was the imperial concubine really poisoned to death by the empress?"
It doesn't matter whether it is true or not, the important thing is that the emperor has believed it.
Concubine Jing smiled, "Remember what my mother said, the sky net is full of slack and never leaks, all the wrong things you have done, you forget, the world forgets, but the Buddha will remember, one day, he will write a pen The pen and you are completely innocent."
After finishing speaking, Concubine Jing folded her hands reverently and said "Amitabha".
She is a court lady in Queen Zhaoyang's palace. That day, she also wanted to die for Queen Zhaoyang, but the empress said that she was young and beautiful. It would be a pity if she died. Besides, there are still people in the palace to deal with .
On that day, the Zhaoyang Palace was on fire, but that face could not be extinguished in the fire. She was pinched by the current emperor and asked, "Who is in the fire?" She looked at that face and gritted her teeth. "It's the empress." When the emperor let go of his hand, she coughed for a long time before catching her breath.
After the current emperor came to the throne, she couldn't survive in the palace anymore. It was the empress dowager who asked her to go there. Later, the emperor took some wrong medicine and asked her to serve her and gave birth to the emperor's son.
There was a sarcastic smile on Concubine Jing's face, remembering how well-matched the imperial concubine and King Xiang were back then, she still remembered that after King Xiang came back from Songshan Temple, he ran into the palace in a hurry and told Zhao Empress Yang said, "Sister-in-law, I've taken a fancy to a girl, I'll tell you, please help me find out the details!"
At that time, the smile on King Xiang’s face was like a blooming flower, and all the servants in the hall were filled with joy and were extremely happy.
The next day was the Dragon Boat Festival, and there were still a few days before the funeral of Empress Xiaocheng. Xiao Xun took Xie Zhiwei with light clothes and set off from Prince Xiang's mansion, and returned to Xie's house.
During the national mourning period, the door of Xie’s house was wide open, and there were no lanterns hanging under the porch. Everyone from above and below wore plain clothes and stood at the door to welcome them.
Yuan looked very sad, what is this? Her daughter had a great day of rejoicing, but as soon as it passed, she encountered a national funeral.
After the meeting, there was not much to say, Xiao Xun went to Qijianzhai with the elders of the Xie family to talk, Xie Zhiwei followed the Yuan family to Fuyunyuan, accompanied by the sisters of the Qian family and the Xie family.
In the room, everyone didn't know what to say. It's not that no one was curious about the affairs of the palace, but they also knew not to ask.
The atmosphere was getting a little heavy, Xie Mingxi's cheerful voice came from outside the courtyard, "Sister, sister, sister, you are finally back, I miss you so much!"
Xie Mingxi flew in like a bird, and rushed towards Xie Zhiwei's arms. Unexpectedly, he was intercepted halfway, and Yuan Shi pulled his back collar and said unhappily, "Look at your body, it's all turned into mud Monkey, you just rushed on your sister, you want to stain your sister's clothes?"
Xie Mingxi couldn't listen to his mother's words at all, he stared at Xie Zhiwei with two eyes, two clusters of fire were burning in his eyes, he said with great interest, "Sister, sister, I miss you so much!"
Xie Zhiwei reached out to his younger brother and pulled him into his arms, wiped the sweat off his face with a handkerchief, and asked, "Did you just go for a horse race?"
"No, Daddy invited me a martial arts master, and I'm starting to practice boxing now!" After he finished speaking, he stepped on a lunge, threw a punch, and shouted "Hey Ha", quite vigorously. momentum.
But seeing Xie Zhiqian and others laughed hahaha, Xie Mingxi was so angry that he was not in tune with Xie Zhiqian and the others, so he just glanced sideways, turned his head and got into Xie Zhiwei's arms, squinting at Xie Zhiqian, His eyes were full of provocation.
That means, my sister still loves me more!
Xie Zhiqian pursed her lips unhappily, snorted coldly at Xie Mingxi, and made a grimace. Xie Mingxi laughed happily. He was at the age of changing teeth, and the little tiger tooth was missing, which looked very happy.
Xie Zhiqian burst out laughing, Qian was so angry that she stretched out her hand and patted Xie Zhiqian, "How old are you, huh? Do you know that you are engaged, you are an adult, you have been with Brother Xi all day What are you fighting for?"
Xie Zhiqian blushed with embarrassment, called "Mother" coquettishly, then turned her head, refusing to talk to Xie Mingxi.
Xie Zhiwei patted Xie Mingxi's head, and said to Xie Mingxi, "Let the nanny wipe your back clean for you, and go take a bath. Your brother-in-law is here, so go ahead and have a look."
"Okay!" Xie Mingxi went to take a bath with Mother Tian.
Xie Mingxi rubbed a few gray marks on Xie Zhiwei's body, so Yuan asked Xie Zhiwei to go back to the Yizhaoyuan, "The room is still reserved for you, you go to freshen up, change your clothes, and we will arrange it in the inner hall later." A table, it’s cool there, and it’s close to us, so it’s convenient to go there.”
Qian Shi and Hai Shi went out and said to Yuan Shi, "Sister-in-law, please accompany my aunt and grandma first, let's go to the kitchen to have a look, the arrangement of tables and chairs by a few sisters and children is a trivial matter, and I can't do it for my sister-in-law."
