Chapter 573: Be Grateful and Give up the Food?
"Have you recognized a new nephew, the late emperor's posthumous son?" Shao Wanru asked lightly, not too surprised. She was still thinking about when the posthumous son incident would come out, but now it is quite fast, and it was the same as in the previous life. different!
The position she was standing on happened to be on a cliff in the back. Below, she could faintly see the courtyard inside the high wall. Occasionally, a woman appeared in her sight. They were all wearing silk clothes but with their hair growing. They should be the concubines of the late emperor. Concubines.
The side door of the high wall opened, and many people came today, including those from the Ministry of Punishment, some wearing the clothes of eunuchs in the palace, and a young man in gorgeous clothes. Judging from his appearance and appearance, he must be this person.
In the last life, the incident at Yu Hui'an probably broke out later than now. Later, I saw the newly recognized Qingjun King from a distance in the palace. His name was the same, but it was better in the previous life. The image was not involved in the case of some dandy robbing a peasant girl, but the person who accidentally bumped into the front of a certain adult's car and was discovered.
That matter seemed to have something to do with the eldest princess. Shao Wanru didn't know the details. He only heard the show girls from the previous life's draft talking about it. It seemed that the draft at that time also planned to choose a concubine for the Qingjun King, so Only then did this rumor about the Qingjun King come about.
Although the Qing princess was said to be the posthumous son of a former concubine, it seemed that he was not recognized by the emperor. He was only recognized because there were so many rumors outside, and it sounded like he was really of royal blood, but The Qing County King was not favored after he recognized him.
Whether it was accidentally appearing in someone else's case or bumping into someone else's car, it actually just showed that the Qing County Prince was very thoughtful. Shao Wanru was now sure that the Qing County Prince should be related to Mo Qiuyi, and even Maybe he was Mo Qiuyi's poor "fellow countryman".
If my grandmother hadn't refused before, maybe my grandmother would have sympathized with the matter and sent the person down the mountain. Later, Prince Qing appeared in front of the emperor, and then got my grandmother involved.
The Prince of Qing County is not liked by the Emperor and the Empress Dowager. Grandma intervenes so hastily, which will inevitably make the Emperor and the Empress Dowager unhappy. A eldest princess who has no real power in the first place has a high position but no real power. If there is no more Emperor and Empress Dowager, If the Queen Mother likes you, life will inevitably be difficult.
There was a deep chill in the water's eyes. Prince Qing and Mo Qiuyi clearly wanted to use their grandmother as a stepping stone.
That night, I saw someone walking towards Mo Qiuyi's house from inside the high wall. It must be the Prince of Qing County. Thinking of Mo Qiuyi's departure, a sneer appeared on my lips. Sure enough, this person who grew up in Yuhui Temple Prince Qing is not an ordinary character, but he may have misjudged it a bit.
She thought that a similar life experience and a healthier body would dilute the favor of the Emperor and the Queen Mother, but in fact, the Qing County King in the previous life was not favored and had no problem with Chu Liuchen at all.
His painting was given to the right person. Chu Liuchen had seen the sneaky King Qing with him before, so he probably knew about this person a long time ago.
"Yes, he was born in Yu Hui'an. I heard that he is here to recognize his mother today. It seems that he wants to take his mother away from here! I heard that his mother is the late emperor's concubine Jade. The emperor now calls her concubine Jade, allowing She followed her son to live in Qingjun Prince's Mansion," Yujie said.
So many people came to the door of Yuhui Nunnery with great fanfare today, and the whole Yuhui Nunnery knew about it. Yujie found out the reason of the matter as soon as she inquired about it.
It's been a while since I went in, and I saw a lot of people coming out. Then a man in Chinese clothes helped a woman come out. He lowered his head and couldn't see clearly, but he could vaguely see her old posture and appearance. This was really... He's a bit too old, so he shouldn't be very old at all!
"The late Emperor's Concubine Jade seems to be very old!" Yu Jie also saw the following scene and said in surprise.
She had very good eyesight. Not only did she see that the supported Jade Concubine seemed to have difficulty walking, but her hair was not as dark as the woman next to her, and she seemed a little depressed.
"It should be more than thirty!" Shao Wanru said after calculation.
"It's not thirty, it's forty!" Suddenly, Shao Yanru's too soft voice came to my ears. I turned around and saw Shao Yanru standing on the path up the mountain. He was actually here to watch the excitement.
"Sister!" Shao Wanru said calmly.
"Fifth sister is also here to see the newly recognized Prince Qing?" Shao Yanru smiled slightly and walked over to stand next to Shao Wanru. She also turned her eyes away and said with a smile: "This Concubine Jade, It is said that she was not very young when she entered the palace. She was delayed in getting married due to the war, but she was extremely beautiful. The late emperor liked her very much when he saw her, so he accepted her into the palace. However, due to bad luck, she entered the palace. Not long after, the late emperor was gone."
"Didn't you say that the late emperor was very favored during his time? He was almost on par with the late empress?" Shao Wanru said in surprise. She really didn't know about this.
"Yes, I have been very favored since I entered the palace, but it only lasted for two months!" Shao Yanru said with a smile.
Shao Wanru frowned slightly, and there was a trace of darkness in his water eyes, so it was different from what he thought. This Yu Guifei, who was said to be very favored, was actually only favored for a month or two, but her fate was not good. Not long after she entered the palace, she was sent to Yuhui Nunnery.
This sounds really pitiful.
"Prince Qingjun has been living here in the past. Has the eldest sister ever found out?" Shao Wanru asked with some curiosity as he looked at the crowd gradually leaving.
"If it were so easy to discover, this matter wouldn't have happened now. Fifth sister has been living on this mountain for a while. Do you know anything?
Shao Yanru said with a half-smile.
"No!" Shao Wanru said affirmatively.
The two people suddenly laughed, and then turned their heads together. Shao Yanru stretched out her hand and pointed downwards, sighing: "The late emperor's posthumous son is still so healthy. It's really surprising. It's a pity for His Highness, King Chen!"
These words are very meaningful and have a sense of unfinished words, which can attract people's conversation.
Shao Wanru seemed not to notice her words. He looked at the crowd who had walked away and the high wall that had been closed again. He turned around and said, "Sister, there is nothing to see anymore. Do you want to go back together?"
"You go back first, and I'll take a look!" Shao Yanru shook his head and said with a smile.
"Then I'll leave first!" Shao Wanru walked towards the winding mountain path.
"Fifth sister, walk slowly!" Shao Yanru looked at her and smiled politely.
Two people passed each other, one going down and the other continuing up the mountain. Shao Wanru looked back in the middle and saw that the eldest lady was in high spirits today and was actually climbing up. In the past, both of them would I occasionally stop here to enjoy the scenery, but no one will go up.
On the one hand, it is because the scenery is not much more beautiful than here if you go up. On the other hand, of course, the upper section is much steeper than the lower section.
"Miss, what is the eldest lady doing?" Yu Jie didn't understand either. In the past, this eldest lady was always delicate and soft, as if she would be tired even if she walked. But today is really special.
"Ignore it, let's go down the mountain!" Shao Wanru smiled slightly, calmly. There are so many secrets in Yuhui'an. It is shocking to raise a descendant of the late emperor as a woman here. What's next in the backyard Private meetings and such are really not a big deal.
She didn't want to be silenced for what she saw in a place like this.
She didn't forget that Shao Yanru's words just now clearly meant something. She looked like she was suspicious. Now climbing up the mountain in front of her was not in line with her past temperament. No matter how she looked at it, it seemed a bit mysterious. And with a bit of hidden temptation.
She cherishes her life and will not lose her life because of excessive curiosity!
"Do you want Qing'er to guard the place going down the mountain?" Yu Jie always felt that something was going on here and said uneasily.
"No!" Shao Wanyu shook his head decisively and refused, "Even if someone can come here, Qing'er can't guard it alone, and Qing'er may even be exposed. What we have to do now is to go back and be quiet. Just wait and do nothing!"
Returning to the courtyard, Shao Wanru went back to the quiet room and burned incense and copied scriptures in the quiet room. This copying lasted for a day. Halfway through, he heard voices in the courtyard, and even Shao Yanru's voice asking questions, but Yujie refused. After that, everyone in the courtyard knew that once Shao Wanru was chanting or copying Buddhist scriptures, they could not interrupt him.
This copying was done during dinner. He put down the pen in his hand and looked at the volumes of scriptures in front of him. Shao Wanru touched his sore hands and walked to the door to ask Yujie to bring water to clean his hands.
Yujie had been waiting outside the door for a long time. Following Shao Wanru's instructions, she hurriedly brought in warm water to help Shao Wanru wash his hands.
Qu Le carried the food box from the kitchen and took out a few simple dishes. Then he took out a basket of steamed rice with lotus leaf powder and said with a smile: "Miss, there is steamed rice with lotus leaf powder in the kitchen today, slave. I got it for you. I heard that it was the food that the King of Qing County rewarded today. In order to thank Yuhui'an for the rice harvesting, I will do some rituals at Yuhui'an next time!"
The steamed rice with lotus leaf powder is very fragrant. It has a strong smell of lotus leaves when it is taken out. It is autumn, and the lotus leaves in many places are still very good. Once it is steamed like this, it is very delicious. I have not eaten it before and I think it tastes very good. It makes me feel happy. People move their index fingers.
"Prince Qing is really making a big show of it!" Shao Wanru smiled slightly. After washing his hands, he sat down and picked up the small bowl of lotus leaf rice that Qu Le put in the bowl for her. She smelled the taste and it was indeed very good. She put it in After tasting it in my mouth, it was also very good, and paired with delicious side dishes, it whetted your appetite.
"Miss, I went to get lotus leaf rice with Shuqi before, but when I left, Shuqi hadn't left yet. I asked the cook at Prince Qing's mansion how the lotus leaf rice was made. It seems that the eldest lady I really like eating this lotus leaf rice!" Qu Le said while taking away the remaining lotus leaf rice.
You shouldn't eat too much of this kind of glutinous stuff. A small bowl is enough, or it may accumulate food.
"The cook from Prince Qing's Palace is still in Yuhui Temple?" Shao Wanru stopped using his chopsticks.
"Yes, this lotus leaf rice was made on the spot. It is said to be fresh and delicious when it is made on the spot!" Qu Le nodded, "He also said that he would give up half a year's worth of rice in Yuhui'an in order to repay the meal he had given to Yuhui'an for so many years. Grace!"
