Chapter 978: Returning with Success
Then, Zhuang Mingyue, who heard the news here, smiled a little meaninglessly at the arrival of Queen Nalan Ying.
"Is it really the Empress Nalan who came in person?"
Although it should have been reasonable Zhuang Mingyue, such ordinary people are not only unable to call out the names of royal people bluntly, but even her attitude is really ordinary people.
Then even if it is a queen, if she takes such an opportunity to condemn him unrelentingly, it is really not an exaggeration.
It's just that as long as you're in the backyard of your own home, there's nothing you can't say.
Moreover, even if it was, Zhuang Mingyue in front of the queen, never gave the other party any good face.
After all, the Tao is not the same.
The two of them are on opposite sides, how can they give each other a good face, or even treat each other with a respectful attitude?
still has her own plans and judgments in this matter, and Zhuang Mingyue is unlikely to have any change in attitude towards her because of her status as the queen.
Just after Zhuang Mingyue's inquiry, Caixia, who came to pass the word on the side, heard the sound and nodded without hesitation, "Yes, the slave maid is not mistaken." It was indeed the queen herself who came this time, and she was only followed by a person who looked like an attendant, and there were no secret guards outside the house. ”
"Oh? It seems that the queen mother not only left the palace without permission this time, but even reassured me like this, and dared to come like this with only a personal attendant. ”
For the queen's approach, Zhuang Mingyue, who was indeed a little surprised, couldn't help but provoke a smile at the corner of her lips, and she couldn't see through the meaning.
"Since the queen mother came to see me in person, then I should also go to meet me in person."
Caixia on the side was slightly stunned after hearing Zhuang Mingyue's words, and then asked with a puzzled expression: "Miss, now this queen is here, it must be because of the defeat of the family, if you go to meet in person, wouldn't it be equivalent to letting her ......"
Zhuang Mingyue, who knew what Caixia was going to say and what she was worried about, turned to laugh before Caixia finished speaking.
Interrupted Caixia's question, and answered her doubts directly, "This time the queen came to naturally come for the defeat of the banker, but I waited for so long, didn't I meet like this from time to time?" ”
Zhuang Mingyue, who was talking, stood up from the stone bench, but did not go in the direction of the front hall, but turned around and walked into the house in the backyard.
"It's just that I didn't expect that the queen would come to meet me in person." Then he saw Zhuang Mingyue who was talking, paused for a moment of time, and then then continued: "Come in person, it is also a province, and I have to try my best to make her believe in me." ”
Caixia, who followed behind, after listening to Zhuang Mingyue's explanation. The confusion in his expression did not reduce much, and he was still a little confused.
But Zhang Zhuang Mingyue, who had already walked into the house, really didn't explain too much to Caixia, who was puzzled by the sound side again. I just made it to the dresser, and began to use the rouge gouache on the table to dress myself up.
"Miss, why did you see that the queen suddenly let her dress up like this?"
Because Zhuang Mingyue in the past, even when she saw Long Yuanxiu, she would not deliberately dress up.
This time, when she was about to meet the queen, she sat in front of the dresser and dressed up, which naturally made Caixia, who didn't understand the reason, feel a little incomprehensible.
Zhuang Mingyue, who was rubbing his face with rouge gouache, was tinkering, but he didn't answer Caixia's inquiry directly.
But after a long while, he raised his head from the pile of rouge gouache, and admired with satisfaction the haggard face and pale lips in the bronze mirror, looking like a sick self.
"It seems that I haven't lost the disguise book I have learned, even if it is enough to know some fur." Zhuang Mingyue, who said this, stood up by the dresser again, and looked at Caixia with a smile on her sick face, "How?" Do I look like I'm sick and uncured? ”
Caixia, who hadn't figured out what Zhuang Mingyue was doing or what she was going to do when she went to school, could only stand a little stunned.
Looking at Zhuang Mingyue, who looked like a serious illness in front of her, nodded lightly, "Like, if it weren't for me and Miss coming in together, Caixia would really think that Miss was really sick." ”
After hearing Caixia's words, Zhuang Mingyue smiled and nodded with great satisfaction.
"Well, that's what Miss Ben wants!"
Whether it was on her face or in her eyes, it was Zhuang Mingyue with a somewhat intriguing smile, and then walked out of the room directly, and walked to the front hall without looking back, waiting for her in the direction of the queen.
Banker, in the antechamber.
Because of Zhuang Mingyue's toss, Queen Nalan Ying, who had been sitting in the front hall, had been waiting for a while, although there was nothing in her expression.
But Zhuang Mingyue was able to make the queen's obviously slightly twisted small movements, and it could be seen from it that the queen was a little impatient with this.
Then I also saw Zhuang Mingyue here, very slowly, and slowly walked over with the support of Caixia, "Ahem...... The queen is coming, and I hope to forgive you for the loss. ”
Although Zhuang Mingyue knew in her heart that in this matter, it was indeed the purpose of the queen Nalan Ying here, she already had a definition and guess in her heart.
But in this case, Zhuang Mingyue, who already understood it in her heart, naturally did not have the slightest delay, and directly started acting.
And although it is not obvious on the face here, it is true that the queen who is already waiting a little impatient in her heart can't help but breathe a sigh of relief after seeing the proper position of the person who came.
If she was in the palace in the past, Nalan Ying would naturally not feel any impatience, but this time she left the palace without permission.
didn't get the emperor's permission, so if she was delayed outside, it would not only delay her, but also the time to come out and prepare to do something this time.
There may even be a delay in her return to the palace, if this is the case, if it is detected at that time, even if she is the queen, she will be convicted if she leaves the palace without permission.
To put it mildly, there is no problem. But the more noble the status, in this kind of matter, if the involvement is a little bigger, then the crime convicted will be more than just a matter of the slightest.
After all, she is the queen of the harem, as the head of the six palaces, the queen of the world.
If you leave the palace without permission like this, then the impact on the harem must be extremely large, so if this matter is really detected, then in this situation, the five princes are being squeezed out by the ministers of the court.
She is doing this kind of thing, and it will be more affected and implicated. So in order to avoid this happening, she must take the risk of leaving the palace as soon as possible, and do whatever she has to do, as soon as possible, so that she can return to the palace with peace of mind.
The queen, who was thinking like this in her heart, then took two steps forward, "Why is Miss Zhuang so haggard?" Could it be that you are sick? ”
Therefore, even if the queen was in such an anxious situation, she still pretended to be unhurried on her face, walked in front of Zhuang Mingyue, and even looked at Zhuang Mingyue with a little worry on her face.
Zhuang Mingyue, who disguised herself as a sick person, looked at the queen with such a hypocritical face in front of her, and there was an unknown meaning in her eyes, but she nodded lightly on her face.
"Ahem, cough, cough ......" Just when the champion was about to speak, he did suddenly hear her coughing again, looking at her appearance, she seemed to have been sick for a long time and was extremely weak, "It's just because of some things, I don't know what the queen mother is doing this time?" ”
Zhuang Mingyue didn't plan to mention more about her illness, so after a simple answer, she once again brought the topic to the right track.
The queen who asked here was just for the sake of being polite about what happened later, seeing that Zhuang Mingyue was not willing to say more, she naturally would not pay too much attention to this matter.
So in this case, the queen also simply asked directly about this, "This time I came to the palace to hear that I pretended to be defeated in the two families, and I want to think about why this is the case, Miss Zhuang, you also understand it in your own heart." So today, I want to ask Miss Zhuang if you want to agree to cooperate with this palace and change your previous mind? ”
Zhuang Mingyue, who had talked to the queen once before, naturally knew what she meant by changing her mind now, and what the so-called cooperation meant.
When the queen asked like this, Zhuang Mingyue, who looked sick on her face, suddenly stiffened, and her face also showed a look of humiliation.
"The queen really knows how to take advantage of people's danger."
Although Zhuang Mingyue planned to deliberately pretend to be weak this time, so as to gain the queen's trust.
But she also knew in her heart that she couldn't disguise it too fakely, otherwise it might cause the queen's suspicion.
