Chapter 157: The Clever Chu discovers clues
Qing Yuliang turned over and dismounted, and knelt in front of the third lady with a plop: "Empress..."
"Bold, who are you? Do you know what you are talking about? Go away, you really have no eyesight!... This is Empress Dowager Xiaocheng!" A little guard pushed Qing Yuliang away, and his mouth was squeaked for a while.
"Hey... you go back!" The third lady flicked her jade sleeves, and the guard immediately flew to the side and stood with his hands down."
"Yuliang, where did you come from? Why did people change their appearance? Get up!"
Qing Yuliang looked up at the third lady and cried, "Is Your Majesty the Emperor... really...?"
"Yeah... let's go, let's go back to the palace first." The third lady looked up, and after a moment she wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Let's go, I have to go back...see the emperor and the others!
After saying that, the third lady rode the big golden retriever and quickly returned to Weiyang Palace.
Nowadays, it is early autumn, and the hot summer has dissipated a lot. However, I am still a little stuffy...
Walking by the Yilan Lake, along the two sides of the palace, the begonias are blooming brightly and dazzlingly. Entering the imperial garden, begonias and two nannies are walking in the garden by the rose bed.
"Xing'er, Madam Ruan, come here quickly!" The third lady called out.
"Oh? Empress... is back! Brother Yuan, Brother Xiao, your mother is back!"
"Gee...Gee" Yuanyuan and Xiaoxiao grinned constantly when they saw their mother, pink and pink, with silver threads beside their fat little mouths...
They were round and curled their eyebrows and eyes, muttering, mom... mom kept calling. Although they were vague, they were moved. The wet nurse smiled and said, "Grandma, the two brothers are about to learn to speak! Listen, his mom's scream... makes the old slave's heart almost melt!"
"Yeah, I'm very happy. Come and let my mother hug you!"
The mother and son hummed haha, the third lady hasn't laughed for a long time. Today, Hongxing saw her master laughing with tears, like pear blossoms and rain, making people feel so distressed that they cut through the knife.
Don’t turn your face and wipe away the tears that are almost overflowing if you secretly.
"Empress, Aunt Shanqing is making the pineapple scorchy crisp you like today. I will get some for you..."
Hongxing went to get some snacks... The third lady hugged Yuan'er and kissed her, then picked up Xiaoer and kissed her, unable to bear to put down any little baby.
"Oh... since the Emperor and the Empress have never laughed, and I feel even more sad when I see the child. Today, the Empress finally laughed..." The haze that covered her face of the wet nurse and the other palace ladies temporarily disappeared.
"Grandma, are there anyone else coming to dinner?"
"Yeah, Master may come to have a meal together. Prepare in the banquet hall and prepare more food for two people..."
Yes, I will prepare now.
As night fell and when the lights first came, the Saint Lord brought the right prime minister Chu Heng to the Qing banquet hall together.
"Saint Lord Chu, please come to the table and try my Weiyang Palace's kitchen craftsmanship."
During the meal, the palace people were serving silently. The Saint looked at Qing Yuliang and suddenly asked, "This girl is so kind. I don't know where I have seen her?"
"Saint Lord, this is Miss Qingyuliang, my assistant, and is currently the consul of Huajian Pavilion!"
"Oh! That covenant Zeben must have been done by the girl, right?"
"I am ashamed, I hope the Holy Lord will forgive me. I am sorry to Your Majesty... I..." Qing Yuliang choked up and couldn't say anything, and tears flowed like rain.
"Shut up! Why are you crying? Are you their inner supporters?... The task they gave you to deceive us from Daliang?"
"No, I am definitely not theirs. Yuliang is just an ordinary woman." Qing Yuliang whispered.
"Haha... I was talking to the girl and having fun! The girl was scared, right?" the holy master explained.
The right prime minister Chu Heng carefully savored the delicacies on the table: "Well, this is delicious, the Queen Mother, or your imperial chef skills are better! You can't stop eating..."
After he said that, he slapped a big mouthful of phoenix shark fin soup and said, "Fresh, fragrant, tender and smooth, melting in the mouth."
...
After the banquet, Chu Heng said to the third lady: "Empress Dowager, this beautiful girl Qingyuliang, have you met halfway?"
"Yeah, when I went to Huayangzhou a year ago, I met her in the Qingchuan Valley..."
"Oh, Miss Qing, are you from Daliang? Well, a patient with myocardial hypoxia?"
"Yes, I am from Daliang... Prime Minister Chu, I am not sick..."
"Yeah, I'm bingeing, I'm going to Yuehua Palace to worship His Majesty... Can it be?" Qing Yuliang nodded and said.
Don't worry, Miss Qing, I will accompany you later. We will all go to worship Your Majesty. I miss you very much... Emperor!"
Chu Heng's words were filled with pain and anger, and his voice was choked.
"Then, Prime Minister, let's go now?"
Chu Heng glanced at her sideways and said, "Okay, some things should be explained clearly in front of the late emperor. It should relieve some of the pressure in his heart? Yes? Miss Qing!"
A hint of anger rose in Chu Heng's eyes. The third lady could see that he had been forcing the anger. However, the third lady didn't understand why Prime Minister Chu was aggressive. In her opinion, Qing Yuliang was just a weak woman.
"Chu Aiqing, be more polite to the girl! Look, Yuliang is embarrassed!"
"Empress, please, Bei Zhi also wants to go to Yuehua Palace to worship the late emperor. I haven't seen him for a long time, I miss you very much!" Chu Heng said sadly.
The Holy Lord seemed to have heard the mysterious voice of Prime Minister Chu, and was the first to stand up: "Let's go see my disciple too!"
Yuehua Palace is a royal ancestral temple, which displays tablets of ancestors from the Shangguan lineage.
The third lady walked into the Taimiao and saw the incense lingering and the lights swaying inside.
The third lady was a little confused in an instant, and her eyes moved on the bright yellow prayer flags hanging high on the beams and pillars. She was stunned: "Big baby, why are you there?"
Seeing her flying away, everyone was shocked... Qing Yuliang shouted: "Empress Dowager, what's wrong with you?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is here, big baby..." The third lady grabbed the lines, hung down the yellow curtains, and shouted Fei Yunxiao's nickname.
At this moment, Feiyunjing and Feiyunge also came. After bowing, they lit incense and candles, and knelt in front of the tablet of the late emperor.
"Brother, Your Majesty..."
Fei Yunge said: "Isn't that the Queen..."
"Yeah...Who is the person ahead of the Empress? Your Majesty... Your Majesty is back?"
I saw that a flying cloud in white clothes was floating above the beam of the room, and was smiling and pulling the third lady. That deep affection and love really made everyone in the Taimiao fall into confusion and horror.
Ah!…Qing Yuliang was the first to be scared and trembled all over, his face was pale, and he was unsteady and fell to the ground.
"Fei Yunxiao...he isn't dead?"
"Ah, please spare me... I am guilty!"
The Holy Lord Huankong said: "Prime Minister, what's wrong with Miss Qing?"
"She is not surnamed Qing!... It depends on how she explains to His Majesty the Emperor?" Prime Minister Chu clapped at Fang Liang.
