Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

"Master Nangong, I don't know why Lord Nangong entered the palace this time, why?"

Feeling that Nangong Jinhong had a moment to speak, before he said it, the father-in-law said with a smile: "Oh, the slave is confused, and as soon as he came out of the palace, he heard the banquet from the mother-in-law Jieyu, and heard that the emperor had passed , Presumably today is the emperor specially called the Nangong adults into the palace, a feast? "

Nangong Jinhong snorted with his nose.

The father-in-law smiled again: "The emperor has been going to Jiefang for the past few days, I'm afraid Jieyi's good things are coming."

"..."

As soon as I heard these words, I immediately returned to God—Nangong Lizhu was about to reset. Pei Yuanzhang naturally has to go with him more these days. Today, she called Nangong Jinhong to enter the palace, and it was her. Before resetting, prepare for the last point.

Since that's it--

The father-in-law laughed: "Since this is the case, Lord Nangong, let's go, you can't let the emperor wait for the Lord."

Nangong Jinhong was silent.

Although he didn't speak, I clearly felt that the atmosphere outside had eased a lot, and he didn't have to come to see a clear move.

For a long while, Nangong Jinhong laughed: "You make sense, you really shouldn't let the emperor wait for me."

"Master Nangong is wise."

"Then, let's take this royal prince's distinguished guest out of the palace, but remember to be careful all the way."

"Master Xie, please."

The corner of my eye saw the father-in-law leaning down, and then the carriage slowly moved forward.

Until this time, I slowly turned around, opened a corner of the curtain, and saw the father-in-law holding a slightly dusty bow, standing in the snow, looking at the carriage that was slowly moving away. , I said gently: "Father-in-law ..."

He looked back at me and immediately laughed with him, "Let the lady wait long."

After that, he took the token from the guard and turned around.

The carriage exited the palace gate.

The snow was getting heavier. By the time of Liu Fu's door, a layer of snow had accumulated on both sides of the road. I jumped out of the carriage and was blown by the cold wind. There was a chill. : "It's cold and windy outside. Madam, let's go back. Don't catch cold. The little master is distressed."

"Thank you for your attention," I laughed, and Cai Wei helped her up the steps. After just two steps, she stopped and looked back at him: "My father-in-law."

"What else does Madam have to command?"

"My father-in-law just said that Nangong Jie's good things are coming. When is it?"

The father-in-law was not surprised. I asked this question, only stepped forward with a smile, and lowered his voice: "The emperor has not yet ordered it, but it has spread all over the palace and the palace. Today, I have invited Lord Nangong to enter the palace for dinner. I'm afraid these days-probably the New Year. "

"Oh……"

I remembered that at the annual banquet, I revealed that Nangong Lizhu had abused the second prince and caused her to be degraded. Now it has been several years, and that incident has gradually disappeared. It's time she returned.

Just don't know what kind of influence her resurgence will bring to the harem.

So, I nodded, and just turned around to leave, suddenly remembered something again, and said, "Father-in-law."

"What else does Madam have to command?"

"My father-in-law is so clear about what is happening in the palace, then I don't know the condition of Princess Miaoyan, can my father-in-law be one or two?"

The father-in-law didn't change his face, and just smiled and said, "Mrs., if the lady wants to ask the little master about things, piles of pieces, slaves can answer one or two. Only the little princess, but the emperor is with her, slaves I do n’t see much of Her Royal Highness, let alone know Her Royal Highness. "

"Oh, so, I know."

The father-in-law made a poke at me again and turned away.

I stood at the door and watched the carriage re-enter the wind and snow. Slowly, the snow was getting bigger and bigger, filled my sight, and put the entire capital into a white mist.

Since that day, snow hasn't stopped.

The heavy snow has turned the entire Beijing makeup into a world of pink makeup and jade. Every day, I sit in the room and open a little window while Cai Wei is not seeing them, and see the white snow falling out of the window. Gradually lost his eyes.

In such falling snow, time passed day by day.

Soon, it was twenty-nine.

In the past few days, my mood has been a little depressed. At one point, Yang Jinyao didn't come to my side again. Secondly, I wonder if I had a relationship with Nangong Jinhong that day. The Prince Nien Shen never sent someone to pick me up again. I do n’t know anything about the changes in the palace, but no matter what, it ’s going to be the New Year, and soon I heard that the streets and lanes outside were getting more and more lively. Children rushed to set firecrackers on the street corners. The cold wind and snow couldn't hide the smile on the people's faces.

In our house, there is a lot of people to talk about. Cai Wei came to ask me how I spent this year. I just waved my hands lazily and let her do it. I gave her some money and the family was lively.

Windows were affixed to the window, and red lanterns were hung under the eaves. Lao Xia drove the carriage every day to bring the water show and Xiao Ni to the streets. They bought a lot of live chickens and ducks and piled up in the kitchen. They often arrived. In the evening, those chickens and ducks were wailing in the yard.

This morning, I got up. When Cai Wei and they came to serve, they saw my eyes swelled slightly and asked, "What's wrong with my wife? Did you sleep well?"

I didn't tell them that they couldn't sleep because of the chickens and ducks and just waved their hands.

Cai Wei served me to wash and said, "Lao Zhu didn't sleep last night."

I casually said, "Oh? Why?"

"He said, and heard the ghost cry again."

"what?"

I was about to bend over to wash my face. When she heard her words, she turned her head and looked at her: "Haunted again?"

"I don't know if it's haunted," Cai Wei said. "Anyway, I asked my sister Shui Xiu, and Brother Du, they said they didn't hear it, I don't know where Zhu heard the ghost cry."

I frowned slightly.

Speaking of which, it ’s been a long time since I moved into this house, and I almost forgot about it. After all, everyone stayed safely and there was nothing haunted. Even Lao Zhu himself forgot about it. Why did you suddenly mention it again today?

I said, "You ask him, what did he say?"

"He said he heard it, I guess, he was going to get windy at night, he was too old, his ears were not good, and he heard it wrong."

"..."

I frowned and didn't speak.

Cai Wei ’s words are not unreasonable. After all, Lao Zhu is old and has poor energy. In fact, it is difficult for him to keep the door like this. I also want to consider finding a young and strong man to come back to do this. As for the old Zhu, give him some more money, and let him return to his hometown to enjoy the blessing.

Just thinking about it, I didn't talk anymore. I finished washing and breakfast was delivered to the kitchen. I ate and asked Cai Wei if she was ready for the New Year. She was very organized and explained one by one. I was okay listening. I was going to pack a few red envelopes later. Although I haven't been here for a long time, I still serve them with all my heart. After this year, I should give them a good reward.

As I was thinking about it, I saw Du Yan hurriedly approaching from the outside, stopped at the door, and a cold air came.

He clenched his fist: "Madam."

I looked up at him and asked, "Du Yan? What's the matter?"

Then he came in, approached me, and leaned in a low voice: "Madam, the road in the western suburbs is open."

"..."

I didn't respond for a moment: "Ah?"

"The road in the western suburbs is open."

"what?!"

I looked at him in surprise and joy: "You said, the road in the western suburbs-"

"Well," he nodded. "I've been sending someone to stare. Early this morning, the Guards came back from Xichengmen. I sent someone to look over and said that the road was open.

"Really ?!"

"Yes."

I was so happy that I was about to get up and go out. Cai Wei was anxious, and hurriedly pulled me: "Mrs., what is Madam?"

"Quick, get Lao Xia to prepare, and we'll--"

"Ma'am," Du Yan was the coolest one, compared to my ecstasy. He stood quietly beside me and said, "Madam, think twice."

"Ok?"

I froze and looked up at his faint, cold eyes.

Probably because he had been standing outside for a long time and his body was still cold. When he came over at this time, it seemed to me that the cold wind was blowing his head, and the whole person froze.

I calmed down immediately.

Yeah, why did you suddenly remove everyone there today?

Prior to this, I already understood that Pei Yuanzhang didn't want anyone to investigate the matter of protecting the country master, so it was a curfew and a checkpoint that blocked my way to Chongyun Pavilion in the western suburbs. It's not strange that he blocked me, but once he let go of the road, I had to be more careful.

After all, although he and I are not hostile, it is not possible to stand on the same line.

I have to watch out for him at all times.

Thinking of this, I sat down slowly.

When Du Yan saw me calm down, he stopped talking, but slowly backed away.

At this time, someone came again, but Xiao Ni hurried over. When I saw me sitting at the table, I hurried forward to greet me, and then said, "Madam, there is a carriage outside the door."

As soon as I heard it, I was a little surprised.

"I'm from the palace. I said it was to take my wife into the palace."

"..."

really.

Unexpectedly, it was going to be a New Year, and Nianshen sent someone to pick me up again.

It happens that today I know that the people in the western suburbs have withdrawn. If I go to Jixian Temple, I may still have a chance to find out what is going on.

Thinking of this, I put down the tableware in my hand and walked out happily.

At the gate, as in the previous two times, a carriage stopped at the gate, and Lao Zhu stood by the gate, still welcoming me to salute.

As Cai Wei said, he probably didn't sleep well last night, and he was a little bit sluggish.

I comforted him a few words, and without going further, I went out.

But as soon as I went out, I felt a bit wrong.

This carriage is not the one that came to pick me up the first two times. It is so simple and simple, but very luxurious. Such a carriage will often attract people's attention when it comes on the road.

At this moment, pedestrians on the road passed our door and looked at each other involuntarily.

I frowned subconsciously.

At this time, a person slowly walked down from the carriage and stood in front of me.
