Chapter 838: Male Face Trouble
She said, "I don't know, what does the mother have to ask the slave maid." β
Nanyan picked up the teacup and took a sip, and then said, "The last time I came here, Mama once said that you were serving by Emperor Gao's side, so you met the uncle of the palace. β
"Yes."
"Then, you are Emperor Gao's personal palace maid?"
Mama Su's eyes flickered slightly, and then she said, "Originally, it was, but then it wasn't." β
"Originally? Later not? β
"Originally, the slave maid was to serve by Emperor Gao's side, but later after the concubine, Qin Guifei, entered the palace, the slave and maid were assigned to serve in Yikun Palace."
ββ¦β¦β
"Therefore, the slave maid is Qin Guifei's personal palace maid."
Nanyan raised his eyebrows slightly.
This is not surprising.
Judging from the fact that she handed over some of Qin Guifei's things to Concubine Ning before, Nan Yan vaguely guessed that even if she was not the one who served Qin Guifei, she must have a relationship with Qin Guifei.
And so it was.
Nanyan smiled and asked, "Then, what kind of person is Qin Guifei?" β
Mama Su glanced at her, and then said, "Guifei Niangniang...... Qin Guifei is very modest, although she was born in the rivers and lakes and is not a famous lady, but she is frank and atmospheric, which is incomparable to many young ladies. β
Nanyan nodded lightly.
She remembered that Concubine Ning once said that when Emperor Gao and Luo Xingwen joined forces to fight against the country, Qin Xixi played a great role in the middle.
can achieve the union of the two forces, this woman is not just as simple as being open-minded.
You must also have courage and knowledge, and your heart is as careful as dust.
To be able to do this, she can be called a strange woman.
However, such a strange woman ended up in a barren mound on Xingluo Lake.
Nanyan thought for a moment and said, "Since Mama is the one who serves Qin Guifei, do you know how she died later?" β
Mama Su glanced at her: "Do you know she's dead?" β
Nanyan said: "The main palace is on Xingluo Lake, and I have seen her grave. β
"Oh......"
Mama Su nodded: "Concubine Ning, every year, she will go to worship Qin Guifei." β
After speaking, she glanced at Nan Yan again before saying, "Actually, the slave maid doesn't know how Qin Guifei died. β
"You don't know? Aren't you her personal maid? β
"Although I am her personal palace maid, sometimes, I can't follow her at all times."
Quite right.
Just like Ran Xiaoyu is so loyal to herself and so capable, she may not always be able to appear by her side.
What's more, Mama Su is like this, I don't think she is a practitioner like Ran Xiaoyu.
Nanyan said: "What does Mama mean that when Qin Guifei passed away, you were not by her side?" β
"Yes."
"And when did she die?"
"She was in the second year of Emperor Gao's founding of the People's Republic of China shortly after the canonization of the concubine."
Nanyan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
So early?
That concubine died early after barely spending time in the harem.
"So, where did she die? Is it in the palace? β
"Of course not, if she is in the palace, the slave will definitely stay by her side."
Mama Su's expression looked a little gloomy, and she said, "She followed Emperor Gao to the north and died of illness when she had the last negotiation with the envoys of the country. β
ββ¦β¦οΌβ
Nanyan's heart skipped a beat.
Negotiate with the envoys of the country?
She subconsciously remembered the painting that Wu Yingqiu painted on the Golden Tower.
It should be the negotiation that should be presented.
But what I didn't expect was that Qin Guifei also followed Emperor Gao.
It stands to reason that concubines will not participate in such a major event, but considering that Qin Xixi was Emperor Gao and Luo Xingwen had made such a great contribution, I think that her strength should not be her husband and children.
Rather, it is very diplomatic.
Therefore, when negotiating, Emperor Gao will take her with him.
Unfortunately, she fell ill and died.
Nanyan was silent for a while, and said, "After she passed away, she justβ"
"It was buried on Xingluo Lake."
Mama Su's expression was even darker, and she said: "Although, the slave maid doesn't understand why Emperor Gao didn't build a mausoleum for the concubine Niangniang, she is the concubine Niangniang after all." β
ββ¦β¦β
"However, she herself does not like to be surrounded by these red walls."
ββ¦β¦β
"Probably, being buried in the place where she came from, maybe it's a good thing for her."
ββ¦β¦β
Nanyan didn't expect that there would be such a story at the beginning.
I don't know why, although it is a story that is a long time ago, when Nanyan listens to it, his mood has been fluctuating.
There seems to be a little, a faint sadness.
Odd.
Although she is very sympathetic, other people's stories are other people's stories after all, and she rarely gets caught up in other people's emotions and is rarely affected by this.
After Mama Su finished speaking, she was quiet for a while, as if she was calming down, then raised her head to look at her, and said, "Why did Guifei Niangniang suddenly want to ask about Qin Guifei?" β
Nanyan was silent for a while before he said, "The grandmother of this palace passed away a few days ago. β
"Please mourn."
"Well, before she died, there were a few times when she mentioned Qin Guifei."
ββ¦β¦β
"I don't know, is it because she is old with Qin Guifei, so this palace wants to come and inquire. If there is something unfinished, this palace wants to do it, and it can be regarded as a filial piety for the grandmother. β
"Old Madam Si ......?"
After hearing this, Mama Su thought about it and said, "The slave maid remembers that Qin Guifei and Mrs. Si do seem to know each other, and sometimes during conversations, they also talk about Mrs. Cheese and Bo Wanghou. β
"Really?"
"Yes."
ββ¦β¦β
"Qin Guifei has been sluggish since she was a child, and it seems that she has been taken care of by Mrs. Si for a period of time."
"I see."
"Before she passed away, that is, before she followed Emperor Gao to participate in that negotiation, she made a lot of clothes by herself, including summer and winter clothes, which were made for Mrs. Si."
ββ¦β¦β
"Come to think of it, I also treat the old lady as half a mother."
Nanyan was slightly moved.
I really didn't expect that there would be such a past between Qin Xixi and Tong Yuhua.
It's no wonder that Tong Yuhua was sick and confused in the last period of his life, but he mentioned "the girl of the Qin family" several times.
Even, for Concubine Ning, she was kind and pleasant.
Thinking about it, it is also because of Qin Guifei's relationship.
It's a pity that the relationship between the two of them is so good, but he and Qin Ruolan had a quarrel before and almost tore their faces, and it's really embarrassing to think about it.
It's all because of Zhu Feng.
Male face woe!
Nanyan couldn't help but smile bitterly.
She thought for a while, and then asked, "Mama, how much do you know about Concubine Ning and the emperor's past?" β
