Chapter 459: Looking for a Concubine Named Xiurong
The Queen Mother was full of thoughts here, but she always had a smile on her face and seemed to be in a very good mood.
Shao Wanru was at a loss and didn't understand why the Queen Mother was so kind to him.
However, the eldest princess Ruian saw that the Queen Mother really liked Shao Wanru, and she was overjoyed and hurriedly asked her to thank the Queen Mother for the reward. "Exchange" or "exchange" was just a statement, and no one would take it seriously.
As for the Queen Mother's statement that she likes Shao Wanru's jade pendant, no one thinks it is true. Neither the eldest princess nor the concubine has touched this jade with their own hands. Of course, they don't know that this jade is the rarest warm jade. , it is warm all year round, which is very good for Chu Liuchen’s condition.
Chu Liuchen was in poor health and rarely appeared in front of people. Even if he occasionally went to the palace to see the Queen Mother, he would not necessarily meet these two. They didn't know that this warm jade jade pendant still belonged to Chu Liuchen. No one thought that this matter was related to him.
The madam frowned and looked at Shao Wanru, not liking what she saw.
How wonderful it would be if the one being so honored was her eldest granddaughter!
Originally, the eldest granddaughter was the most outstanding in the whole house and was the most popular with her, but how could she let this little granddaughter win!
"The Queen Mother doesn't like it as much as the Queen Mother likes it?" When the eldest princess Ruian glanced at the Madam, she found that her face was not good, and she asked with a cold smile.
"How could you not like it? It's like being able to look into the eyes of the Queen Mother is a blessing to the entire Xingguo Palace!" The Queen Mother explained with a smile on her face.
"Then why did the madam frown just now?" The eldest princess thought that the madam of Xingguo Palace was uncomfortable, and her words became more and more rude.
"Why should the eldest princess be so aggressive? What else do you want us to do? No one thought about what happened to Qing Hua and the boss back then!"
The Madam's eyes turned red, she said aggrievedly, and wiped the corners of her eyes with the handkerchief.
This is to say that the eldest princess Ruian is staring at this past thing and making trouble unreasonably. Shao Wanru lowered his head, a trace of ridicule flashed on his face, his cheap grandmother would also pretend to be pitiful in front of the Queen Mother.
"Okay, okay, Ryan, this is really no one's fault, no one thought about it. Forget it, this matter is over. Now that I see my lovely granddaughter and grandson, I won't care about these things anymore, otherwise How can you let these two little children behave themselves?" The Queen Mother couldn't see it and advised.
The eldest princess wanted to say something else, but Shao Wanru reached out and pulled her sleeve.
"The Queen Mother, I don't care. Now I just want to see that the two brothers and sisters are well, so that nothing like them will happen again." The eldest princess Ruian no longer fought for victory, but lowered her head bitterly.
"Let it go. This kind of thing will never happen again. The two children will grow up safely. If something like this happens again, the two children will be forced to run away. The Ai family will make the decision and inherit them to you."
The Queen Mother agreed.
"Thank you, the Queen Mother!" Princess Ruian was overjoyed. She stood up and gave a big salute to the Queen Mother.
Mrs. Xingguo's wife's face was a little ugly. It wasn't that she couldn't bear to leave Shao Wanru and her brother. It was because if this kind of thing really happened, the entire Xingguo Duke's mansion would no longer need to see anyone. Her grandchildren and granddaughters could not be safe in their own mansion. , but was forced to inherit it to my grandmother. What is this?
"Don't worry, the Queen Mother, they will not be put in danger. I will definitely treat them as if they are the treasures in my heart."
The queen mother had to stand up and make a respectful pledge to the queen mother.
The Queen Mother stretched out her hands and pressed them on both sides, indicating that they were all exempt from courtesy. Then she asked them to sit down again, her eyes fell back on Shao Wanru's face, and she said with a smile: "The Ai family still wants to talk to your two elders. Let’s talk, go sit in the main hall on the side first, if you feel bored sitting there, you can also take a walk around the Ai family’s palace!”
Shao Wanru looked at Princess Ruian hesitantly.
The eldest princess smiled and nodded to her: "I still haven't thanked the Queen Mother!"
There was indeed something going on at this meeting, and she had to snatch the right to marry Shao Wanru from Mrs. Xingguo Gongtai. Zhuo Zhuo did not sound good here.
"Thank you, Queen Mother!" Shao Wanru said softly as he stood up.
The Queen Mother smiled and nodded, and a palace maid came over to lead Shao Wanru to the side hall.
Seeing the tacit interaction between Shao Wanru and the eldest princess Ruian, Mrs. Xingguo's face became more and more sad. She was a serious elder, not as good as a grandmother. She felt aggrieved and disgusted in her heart. She felt more and more that Shao Wanru With the same virtue as her mother, she doesn't distinguish between inside and outside, and she doesn't know who is the person she should be close to.
The Queen Mother is here, and the Queen Mother can't say anything, she even has to squeeze out a smile on her face.
The side hall of the Queen Mother is very large, with the main hall door on the front, and the side door on the side is from the main hall, which is much smaller than the main entrance.
As soon as he entered the door of the side hall, the palace maid who led the way bowed deeply to the beautiful young man sitting in the side hall.
"You go back first!" Xiao Xuanzi winked, and the palace maid stepped aside smartly, then walked away, and even closed the side door while leaving.
So Chu Liuchen had been waiting for him here a long time ago?
Shao Wanru said helplessly.
"Come here for tea. There aren't many of this kind of tea here, Grandma Huang. I heard it's grown in the mountains behind Yuhui Temple. It's said that this tea has the fragrance of Buddha and is the most nourishing!"
Chu Yuchen personally poured a cup of tea for Shao Wanru and pushed it in front of him.
Shao Wanru had no choice but to come over and sit down, picked up the tea and took a sip, and suddenly his eyes lit up. The tea was not strong, but had a very light fragrance, which seemed lighter than ordinary tea.
The tea that Shao Wanru used in the past was mainly light, and he didn't use much. Just put a few pieces on it, and it would be better to see a faint green color on the tea soup.
The taste suited her very well. It was light at first taste and mellow after the aftertaste.
"Is there such tea in the mountains behind Yuhui Temple?" Shao Wanru fluttered her long eyelashes and asked in surprise. In her last life, she only knew about Yuhui Temple that Shao Yanru once lived there and studied painting. Then I heard that Princess Ruian became a monk there.
"Yuhui Nunnery is not an ordinary nunnery. Although it is not as good as Huaguang Temple, it is a royal temple, but it is still extraordinary. If the emperor dies and the concubines in the harem have no children, they will all end up in Yuhui Nunnery. In the past, there were There is a precedent for a princess to become a monk in Yuhui Temple."
Chu Liuchen picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip and then put it down. He was not in good health, so he also used this lighter tea, and he also liked to use this lighter tea.
"Are some of the late emperor's concubines in the harem also in Yuhui Nunnery?" Shao Wanru thought for a moment, then his expression changed slightly.
"Of course there are. Although there were not many concubines before, there must still be a few. They were all sent to Yuhui Nunnery, but it is a little different from the residence of real nuns." Chu Liuchen lowered his head, The black eyelashes on the pale handsome face blinked, then slowly raised his head, narrowed his eyes slightly, and spoke calmly, as if he was talking about someone else's business.
Shao Wanru knew that the so-called concubines in the harem were actually his father's concubines. He heard that his mother was depressed and disappeared after his father died of illness. I'm afraid he would feel sad when he mentioned this kind of thing. !
It's just that when these words are said here, no matter how strong the twist is, they seem to be much more deliberate.
"Is Yuhui'an big?" Shao Wanru thought for a moment, turned the exquisite teacup in his hand, and asked.
"Big, the entire Donghua Mountain is included in it." Chu Liuchen raised his eyes, his narrow eyes flickered with an uncertain light, looking a bit sinister and deep.
The picturesque and beautiful boy looked a bit sinister at this time.
"Is there something in it that the prince wants?" Shao Wanru thought for a while and said bluntly. He slowly put down the cup in his hand and sat upright with his slender body. Since they were talking about business, of course he had to listen carefully.
"Yes!" Chu Liuchen smiled and curved the corners of his pale lips. The corners of his lips were very light. His light color always made people feel weak and weak, but this lip color suited him very well. This kind of extreme delicacy and beauty is beyond the reach of the human world, as if such a person can only appear in paintings.
Of course, Shao Wanru, who had fought against Chu Liuchen several times, did not think that he was really unworldly. This person used his gentle appearance to confuse others. He was light in color but highly toxic.
He said yes, and of course Shao Wanru didn't dare to ignore it. After thinking about it, she asked anxiously: "What does the prince want? If I have a chance, I will find it for him."
She didn't dare to agree to get it easily, and she didn't know what good thing it was that made Chu Liuchen long for it so much.
"Find someone for me!" Chu Liuchen playfully supported his chin with his hand and said leisurely.
"The nun in Yuhui Nunnery? Or the concubine who is locked up?" Qin Wanru asked more and more cautiously. It was obvious at first glance that this matter was difficult to handle, otherwise it would not be her turn.
"The imprisoned concubines are all in the same place. There is a wall that separates Yuhui Nunnery. It is equivalent to several gardens in Yuhui Nunnery. The people living inside are, and the door facing Yuhui Nunnery is closed. , the key is naturally in the hands of the nunnery master, you have to find a way to get in once, and find a concubine named Xiurong! I want to ask some questions about the past! "
Shao Wanru panicked and bit his lip, groaning secretly in his heart, but he had to agree: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely look for you if I have the chance."
You can tell that this kind of thing is not a good thing as soon as you hear it, and it may even be related to Chu Liuchen's "big event".
"You go to Yuhui Nunnery and take Aunt Zheng with you. She knows the concubine named Xiurong. You only need to take two of them with you. As for the others, you don't need to take them with you. Master Mingqiu happens to be there as well. Go there and take Ming Qiu with you. Master Qiu will also take care of you." Chu Liuchen looked like he was ready for her, and Shao Wanru became more and more speechless.
"Has the prince already thought that I would go to Yuhui Nunnery?"
"If you want to leave the Xingguo Duke's Mansion, Yu Hui'an is indeed a good place, but you have to pay attention to one person!"
"Who?" Shao Wanru's heart tightened and he asked with wide eyes.
Chu Liuchen's handsome face suddenly came closer, his handsome eyes rolled, and he suddenly asked a very shocking question, "Where is this king's jade pendant?"
