"Yes," Aunt Cui said beside her, "Madam, I'm worried about you entering the palace alone." "What can I do? I'm just chatting and taking a walk with Concubine Jin." Xiao

Looking at the worried looks on each of their faces, although she knew that their worries were a bit unnecessary, she felt warm in her heart. She had forgotten what happened in the past. When she saw her uncle and aunt on the wedding day, she felt friendly, but

There are no more, but these people who serve her around her have long been regarded as family.

Xiao Zhen teased the small ax held by Nanny Su. His son was very quiet in Nanny Su's arms. He looked extremely cute, especially those bright black eyes that blinked like tadpoles, very cute.

Spirit: "You also have to be good."

The small ax suddenly made a whirring sound as if in response to what she said, making everyone around him laugh.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, but fortunately, Xiao Zhen's carriage arrived at the gate of the palace just as the rain was getting heavier.

After getting off the carriage, Zhao Jie handed the umbrella to Xiao Zhen and said, "Madam, we will be responsible for the palace these days."

Xiao Zhen knew what Zhao Jie meant and said with a smile: "I know what you are worried about. After Ning Zilan's incident, the Queen Mother and the Mu family should not target me again."

Wu Yin nodded: "I also think that the Queen Mother is a smart person. After she cut off Ning Zilan's arm, she knew that if something like this happened again, it would not be as simple as taking an arm."

"Okay, I'm going in." Xiao Zhen saw the palace maid coming at the entrance of the palace, and looked around outside. When he saw her giving a salute at the door, he knew that he was here to pick her up.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and Xiao Zhen did not hold an umbrella. Such an umbrella would probably be blown open as soon as it was opened.

"This servant is the aunt in charge of Concubine Jin, her surname is Ru," the palace maid was about thirty years old, her hair was combed in a disrespectful way, her appearance was pretty, but a little more serious: "I have met Mrs. Han."

Seeing Aunt Ru in front of him, Xiao Zhen thought of Aunt Cui. He still remembered that when Aunt Cui first came to the Han family, she dressed herself neatly and rigorously like this: "Aunt Ru, please lead the way." In fact, this is what happened.

She knows the road well.

For example, her aunt blessed her and held an umbrella for her as she walked out of the aisle.

"No, it's just a little rain. The wind is so strong that I can't hold it. Besides, I brought an umbrella myself."

Auntie Ru smiled gently: "Let the slave hold an umbrella for Madam. It's not good for your health if you get wet."

Xiao Zhen didn't push it anymore. There were palace rules in the palace. If she was too polite, it would embarrass the aunt. The palace walls were very high and long. When Xiao Zhen and the two turned around this long corridor, they looked at each other.

The wind nearby was not strong, and the raindrops seemed much lighter. Palace ladies often walked by with their heads lowered, and Xiao Zhen could judge their rank from their clothes. Palace ladies were a happy place for the common people.

It's true, but the hierarchy of palace maids is very strict, and the most junior palace maids are not even as good as ordinary girls. This is what ordinary people don't know.

Just when the two of them turned around another round door, the wind suddenly became stronger again. This was another long palace passage, and through the door not far away was the palace where the Concubine Jin lived.

At this time, the palace man walking on this passage suddenly knelt on the ground.

"It's the emperor's sedan chair." Aunt Ru said from the side.

Xiao Zhen looked around, and sure enough, he saw the emperor's sedan chair slowly coming up from the front, about a hundred paces away from them. Xiao Zhen twitched the corner of his mouth, it was fine on a sunny day, but on such a windy and rainy day, these

It was really painful for the palace attendants to kneel down after such a long distance.

As the prime minister's wife, she naturally did not have to kneel. She only had to bow to the emperor when he approached. But if her aunt wanted to hold an umbrella for her, she did not need to kneel and stood aside respectfully with her head lowered.

Xiao Zhen slowly counted to two hundred in her mind, and then Long Chu walked to her side. Xiao Zhen squatted and saluted, waiting for Long Chu to carry it over. Unexpectedly, the dragon cart was carried to her side.

A cold voice she was familiar with came from inside: "Stop."

The bright yellow curtain was raised, and his cold gaze fell on Xiao Zhen: "Hey, who is this?"

Xiao Zhen: "..." She was still half-crouching at this time. When the emperor said this, she straightened up and was about to reply when she heard the emperor's cold voice coming from above again: "Did I tell you to get up?

?”

Xiao Zhen knew that the emperor didn't like her, so if he met him at this time, it seemed that he wouldn't make it easy for her.

"Your Majesty, this is the Prime Minister's wife, Concubine Jin..." Aunt Ru was interrupted.

"Did I ask you to speak? Go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and receive twenty slaps." The emperor said coldly.

Aunt Ru's face turned pale. She was so panicked that she didn't hold the umbrella in her hand, and it was blown away by the wind. The direction of the flight happened to be on the dragon where the emperor was sitting.

Everyone was shocked and called the emperor to be careful. Xiao Zhen subconsciously grabbed the umbrella and retracted his outstretched hand. The umbrella was made of wood. It would hurt if it was hit at such a distance, but it would not cause an accident. Think about it.

Suddenly, she saw the umbrella coming into direct contact with the emperor's face, and the emperor's painful cry was also heard.

.

The palace attendants who followed were so frightened that they all knelt on the ground. Aunt Ru was so frightened that her legs softened and she fell to the ground. She got up in a panic and knelt down again, her whole body trembling with fear.

Xiao Zhen wanted to laugh, a little pain was there, but she really didn't expect that the emperor would cry out in pain. The next moment, the smile on her face faded because she saw two nosebleeds flowing out of the emperor's nose, and the flow became more and more serious.

many.

"Your Majesty? Your Majesty, is he bleeding?" The father-in-law who was accompanying him was so frightened that he asked the palace attendant behind him: "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Why don't you call the imperial doctor quickly?"

The palace man ran away in panic.

When the emperor glared at Xiao Zhen, Xiao Zhen was already kneeling on the ground. Joke, of course she couldn't act too special at this time. For Ziran's sake, the emperor couldn't do anything to her, but being hated was

Certainly, once she is resented, she will not be too comfortable in the palace.

She didn't expect that the emperor's nose was so fragile and would bleed from such a collision. The emperor covered his painful nose, almost bursting into tears from the pain. He stared at Xiao Zhen, getting more and more upset as he stared at him. Why did this woman enter the palace?

He saw blood? Then he saw that all the palace people around him were frightened and had no reaction. He shouted: "What are you doing here? Do you want the imperial doctor to treat you here?"

Should I see a doctor?"

Upon hearing this, several father-in-laws quickly carried the emperor away.

As soon as the emperor left, Xiao Zhen helped Aunt Ru, who was frightened, to stand up. Just as he was about to speak, Ren Jinxiu's voice sounded from behind: "Sister A Zhen, what happened?" The words were directed at Xiao Zhen, looking at her.

But he looked at Emperor Long Hui who was hurrying away with confusion.

Ren Jinxiu was supported by the palace maids, holding a large canopy on her head to ensure that the rain could not hit her. The canopy was held by a strong and burly father-in-law. The wind was so strong that it did not blow at all.

Xiao Zhen was about to salute, but was supported by Ren Jinxiu, so that she didn't have to be polite to her.

Xiao Zhen was not polite and told what had just happened one by one. Ren Jinxiu was worried and asked: "Is the emperor okay?"

"It's okay, it's just a nosebleed. Just stop it and it'll be fine." Xiao Zhen looked at Aunt Ru beside him: "Aunt Ru was quite frightened."

At this moment, the girl knelt on the ground and choked with sobs: "Your Majesty, I don't mean this. I beg your Majesty to say something nice to your Majesty. Otherwise, this little life of this slave will be lost." "Get up quickly.

"Seeing that my aunt's whole body has been

Being wet by the rain and pleading so hard, Ren Jinxiu couldn't bear it. As soon as she entered the palace, her aunt accompanied her, and her feelings were different: "I'll go check on the emperor's injury first, and we'll talk about the rest later. Ah.

Sister Zhen, your whole body is wet too. First of all,

Go to my palace and change into clean clothes."

Xiao Zhen nodded.

When Xiao Zhen came out after changing his clothes and drank the ginger sugar tea brewed by the palace maid, an hour had passed.

The rain is getting thicker, and the mountains in the distance are like black clouds, and smoke has begun to rise. It is as picturesque as a poem. The top of the palace looks more mysterious and majestic against the backdrop of this poetic and picturesque mountain shadow.

"The scenery of this palace is really nice." Xiao Zhen said to Aunt Ru, who was standing by and looked uneasy.

Aunt Ru nodded, wanting to show Xiao Zhen a smile, but her smile was uglier than crying.

"Don't worry, aunt, the emperor will not punish you." Xiao Zhen said with a smile.

"How does Madam know?"

"Because the emperor's heart is all about the world." He is so broad-minded, how can he care about such a thing with a servant?

Aunt Ru was stunned for a moment, but Xiao Zhen's words could not eliminate her fear, and she did not understand what they meant. The emperor did not need to pretend to be the world in his heart, the world was his.

It wasn't until Concubine Jin came in with a big belly and told Aunt Ru that the emperor would not punish her, that Aunt Ru happily went down to get some snacks for the two of them.

"Is the emperor okay?" Xiao Zhen helped Ren Jinxiu sit down and asked with a smile.

Ren Jinxiu pouted: "I'm so exhausted from walking that I don't even know how to ask me."

Ren Jinxiu's face is now plump and round, and her cold facial features are slightly squeezed together to look very cute. Her pouting makes Xiao Zhen even more cute, which makes Xiao Zhen couldn't help laughing: "Looking at you, you must be tired.
