Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

I didn't answer. I just looked at the stationery with a deep frown. After a while, I raised my head and asked Xi Xi, "Who is the person who sent the letter?"

"If you return to Madam, you are still waiting outside."

"Okay, let him wait. I'll write back to him right away."

After finishing speaking, I apologized to a few people on the table as I stood up, "Let me stay with you first."

Du Yan and Shui Xiu looked at me and immediately understood what was supposed to happen to me. Nodding in a hurry, Cai Wei also followed, and when I arrived in my room, I said, "Research the ink."

"Yes."

The pens and papers were always on the table. Cai Wei served me and was familiar with it for a while. I hurried to come and grind the ink for me. I rolled out the paper and wrote a reply on it.

Actually, there was nothing to write about. Chang Qing told me a message, and I wrote back to tell her "I know", but when I finished writing, Cai Wei was about to pick it up, but I stopped suddenly. After thinking about it, he said, "Wait a minute, I will write a little more."

"Oh."

Cai Wei hurriedly opened the paper again, and I wrote it again. This time, I wrote a lot more. Cai Wei quietly stayed aside. After I finished writing, I picked up the paper and dried it carefully. Then the ink was folded into a plate buckle. Cai Wei took the envelope and sealed it. I also left a mark on the fire paint and passed it to her: "Take it out and give it to the person at the door."

"Yes."

"Giving him a little money to save and eat will not make it hard."

"Got it."

She turned around and went down, and I returned to the side hall. As soon as I left, they didn't use any rice. The dishes on the table were a little cold. I sat down and laughed, "I'm rude."

Shui Xiu's face was all white. In the past, she always followed me as my maid. Even though my talented identity was later abolished and I was beaten into the cold palace, psychologically, she still believed that I was her master, and when I heard such kind words, how could I sit still, and stood up quickly: "The girl said this, I dare not listen."

I hurriedly grabbed her and said softly, "Okay, I won't say that."

Then she sat down, and her eyes were slightly red.

Du Yan sat aside and said nothing.

He is still taciturn, as he used to be, even with his new wife, but he has nothing to talk about, but I can see that every time he brings Shuixiu the food that this girl loved in the past, and he eats very little The big mouthful of chopped rice is probably the habit of the past.

After a while, the kitchen sent a large pot of hot soup, which was temporarily ordered by Cai Wei. Everyone had a bowl of hot soup and drank it, and they were much more comfortable.

After drinking most of the bowl of soup, I was a little bit more comfortable and turned to Du Yan and said, "Du Yan, I'm going to go out in a few days, and you will go with me when I get there."

Cai Wei and Shui Xiu both turned to look at me.

Du Yan nodded: "Yes."

After that, I did n’t ask much. I lowered my head and drank the last bowl of soup.

After eating, everyone will go to rest, and Du Yan will naturally explain to his men, how to deal with the issue of the next nursing home, but also assign them tasks. Originally, Xiao Ni and Xi Xi had cleaned up the room for these people, but today the water show came, and I naturally arranged it for Xiao Ni and they packed up another room and lived for them.

I said, "Anyway, you are also at home. Du Yan usually works here. It's better to rent your house and move to my house. Our big family is very lively. How wonderful!"

Shui Xiu blinked, and she felt a little emotional.

However, don't look at her overbearing past. After marrying, she somewhat converged. She thought about it and said, "I still want him to discuss this matter. I can't let it go."

I suddenly laughed.

She smiled when she saw me, and blushed a little: "What are you laughing at?"

I laughed: "I laugh at you, and finally I look like a wife."

Shui Xiu immediately pursed his lips.

This look is a bit like the little girl who used to be lawless in the palace. I had a chat with her for a while, and then I was going to rest. When she was about to go out, she suddenly remembered something, saying: " Oops, I almost forgot! "

"what happened?"

"There is something I asked for for the girl, and said I should remember it for you."

As she spoke, she reached out and touched her arms. I looked at her. After a while, she drew a small paper bag from her arms.

"what is this?"

"This is the magic sign I went to Taimiao for the girl."

"...!"

There was a sudden stun in my heart, and the hand that had been stretched out stiffened in the air.

Shui Xiu didn't find it. He still lowered his head, carefully opened the paper bag, and exposed a yellow note, which painted something with cinnabar. I don't understand it, but Shui Xiu was very religious. Hold it with both hands and hold it in front of me: "Girl, this is the magic charm of the Taimiao Temple, but it is not easy to get it. I went to the line early in the morning and got it after a long time.

"..."

"You have to put it away, it is very spiritual."

"..."

I was silent for a while, but didn't let her see what was wrong with me. She quickly took it, held it in her hand for a while, then looked up at her: "You go to Taimiao?"

"Yes indeed."

"Does Taimiao still send such amulets now?"

"Yeah, but not everyone can get it. It depends on the sincerity. If you are not sincere, you can't buy any more money!"

"Who painted this magic charm?"

"Of course it is the protector."

"……Oh."

I was silent for a while, then raised my head to look at Shui Xiu, only to find that her eyes were slightly dark and black, and it was the dark circles left behind after not sleeping well. It seems that she woke up very early today and didn't even sleep Okay, I went to find this magic charm.

I smiled and said, "You're so considerate, I just lacked these as soon as I moved to this new house."

She smiled hesitantly: "I also listened to him. The girl has just arrived in this house, so the following people have repurchased it. I guess the girl, you must not think of this, so I asked you to ask for this. .Girl, remember, choose a good day and hang it up. "

"Ok."

She urged two more words, and then went on.

I sat in my seat, but did not return to the room immediately, but sat for a while, watching the yellow amulet, and after a while, Cai Wei came over: "Madam, do you want to go back to the house and rest for a while? what?"

"Ok."

She accompanied me back to the room and started to clean up the bed for me, and while I was sitting aside, watching the magic in my hand quietly, Cai Wei made a bed and said with a smile: "Today, this is my old friend Is that right? I think her relationship with his wife is really good. "

"Well, she used to serve me in the palace."

"So she used to be a maid?"

"Ok."

"I didn't expect that the maid can marry, but it looks good to see her marry, and the wife should be happy."

"Yeah, I should be happy too."

As I said, my eyes never left the magic charm in my hand. At this time Cai Wei made the bed, came over and asked me to rest, and when I saw the charm, I said softly, "This is-- Madam, is it used to fight evil? "

"Blessing your home is safe, it can be regarded as-can suppress evil."

"That's great. Would you like to hang up?"

"Not use it first."

I said, looking up at her: "Okay, I'm going to rest."

"Oh, then I back down."

Cai Wei also knew very well. When she looked tired, she helped me to go to the bed and sit down. After taking off my shoes, she backed out and closed the door.

Although I was tired, I didn't feel sleepy at this time. I just sat on the bedside and never let go of the charm.

Taimiao-protector of the country-magic charm.

That place, that character, although a long time ago, is no stranger to me, especially this magic charm in front of me, I can even remember that when I was sleeping at the stupa and the Queen Mother ’s bed, it was full of similar The peace sign was obtained by Pei Yuanzhang from the temple guardian.

Taimiao ...

Protector Mage ...

Speaking of which, I have spent a lot of time in the palace. I used to be the emperor's concubine, and even sat in the right position of the Jixian Temple. However, the guardian mage in the Taimiao always only heard about it. Name, but no one-of course, not only me, but most of the people in the capital, not even officials, have seen him. Only on the first day of the first year of each year, when the emperor sacrificed to the heaven himself, this The protector of the country will deal with some matters of ritual worship, but it has never appeared in people ’s sight. I do n’t know whether it is male or female, old or young. However, from the time when I heard that the protector of the temple was counted to now, if If there is no hereditary, then this mage should be a drooping old man.

Of course, if that's the case, it doesn't make me feel strange. After all, the people need to believe. The existence of such a great person is, for many people, a home and a career, a strong support in the heart. .

Therefore, Shui Xiu knew that I had returned to Beijing, moved into a new house, and asked her husband to come to the nursing home. Of course, she would think of asking me for a magic charm to ward off evil and keep peace. This is not surprising.

the strange thing is--

Letter from Chang Qing.

A letter from her today told me a message. A few days later, Pei Yuanzhang would bring her concubine to the Tai Temple to pray for Princess Miaoyan.

Moreover, the blessing ceremony was presided over by the magistrate.

Chang Qing told me that this time, the emperor would bring Princess Miaoyan with her.

I could not help frowning.

If it ’s just a blessing ceremony, I do n’t think it ’s strange, but at this time, I suddenly remembered that I told Pei Yuanzhang that if you want to cure the deafening soul of good words, you need to find a person who is proficient in Yijing to perform spiritualism, Pei Yuanzhang told me that two people beside him were proficient in the Book of Changes.

One of them was, of course, the weird old Taoist.

Then the second person who is proficient in the Book of Changes is--
