Chapter 090 Garden
A carriage with green and red tassels slowly drove out of the family of the Duke of Chengguo in Sanyuanpo.
The Empress Dowager asked Gu Jin's mother and daughter to enter the palace.
The capital in February is still cold.
The thin scorching sun is like a curling mist in the plum shoots, cold and brilliance; in the flowing wind, there is a mellow fragrance of plums.
Song Paner changed into a brand-new big red silk cloak, with honey pink silver-rim folded begonia skirt, matched with a moon-white skirt.
He combed a round bun, wore two tortoise tzel combs on his head, and chased the long silver lilac earrings on his ears. When the bright wrist slightly supported the temples, the earrings moved and poured brightly.
"...I don't look well. I'm really afraid that the Empress Dowager would see me. I thought I was like this. Along the way, Song Paner muttered several times.
When she saw the Empress Dowager for the first time, she was inevitably uneasy.
The Empress Dowager is also Gu Jinzhi's future mother-in-law, and she is at a loss for fear of losing her daughter's face.
However, she was pregnant and thought that the color was not as good as before, and she was afraid that the Empress Dowager would laugh at her in her heart.
Anyway, she is very nervous.
After receiving the order, she began to be nervous until the carriage reached halfway, and her nervousness had not passed.
Gu Jinzhi quietly held her hand and whispered, "Mom, the Empress Dowager is the most kind."
The Empress Dowager now regards Gu Jinzhi as a life-saving Bodhisattva. Naturally, she will not be serious about Song Pan'er.
Song Pan'er smiled and made up her mind a lot.
After a while, the carriage entered the palace.
The father-in-law in the Empress Dowager's palace was waiting for them at the gate.
When I arrived at Kunning Palace, the bluestone elixir in front of the palace was set against the sunlight, showing a slightly chilling glow.
Song Pan'er's palms were sweaty, and she didn't even have the energy to take care of Gu Jinzhi. Looking up, Gu Jinzhi was still the same as usual, quiet.
Stepping on Danchi and entering the Kunning Palace, he smelled a fragrance as quiet as water, which should be burning rosemary spices.
When a maid came forward, Gu Jinzhi bent his knees and shouted to become an aunt.
The nervousness in Song Pan'er's heart suddenly went away.
What are you afraid of? I won't eat her again.
When it's really time to calm down, Song Pan'er can also stand up to the field. No matter how nervous she is, it's useless. She simply throw it away.
When Song Pan'er heard Gu Jinzhi shouting Aunt Cheng, she vaguely remembered that this aunt was the one who sent Gu Jinzhi back a few days ago.
She also salutes.
Aunt Cheng smiled and took their mother and daughter inside: "The Empress Dowager has been waiting for half a day, and she always asks the maidservant to have a look. Have you arrived?"
"There was a little delay on the road. Let the empress dowager wait for a long time. Damn it." Song Pan'er said with a smile.
Entering the main hall, Song Pan'er bowed her head and her footsteps were light.
Gu Jinzhi walked behind her.
As soon as he stepped in, there was a loud boy's voice, which was very happy: "Xiaoqi, Xiaoqi!" Then his footsteps were clear, and he hurriedly ran to Gu Jin's mother and daughter.
In the main hall of Kunning Palace, the princes and grandchildren dare not make such noise, unless this person is the most spoiled and tolerated by the Empress Dowager.
There is no doubt that he is the fool King Luyang.
Song Paner quickly raised her eyes, looked at him twice, then lowered her head and followed Aunt Cheng forward.
Gu Jinzhi's hand has been tightly grasped by the King of Luyang.
He smiled brightly and looked at Gu Jinzhi.
Gu Jinzhi had to lead him and smiled at him.
The group came forward and saluted the empress dowager.
The Empress Dowager's voice was warm and mellow, and she flattened herself with a smile.
The maid of honor took the brocade for them to sit.
The king of Luyang sat next to Gu Jinzhi and whispered to her, "Xiao Qi, let's go play."
Gu Jinzhi didn't move and whispered, "It's cold outside. I'm afraid of the cold."
The king of Luyang quickly sat up straight and said no more about going out to play. He said, "I'm also afraid of the cold. It's warm here."
The Empress Dowager looked at them and did not blame the King of Luyang for his bad manners, but was happy.
There are so many girls in the palace, many of whom are more beautiful than Gu Jinzhi, but the king of Luyang only likes to stick to Gu Jinzhi. The first time he saw Gu Jinzhi, he liked her.
This is the fate of the previous life, right?
Song Pan'er lowered his head and sat upright.
The Empress Dowager smiled and called her in-laws: "... If you are an ordinary family, you should visit your family. Now I want you to come to the palace to see you.
She said it modestly.
Song Pan'er's heart moved slightly. She got up quickly and said, "It's a blessing for the women to see the empress dowager."
We said some polite words to each other.
The king of Luyang has been clinging to Gu Jin's sitting.
If this is a normal boy, he should be scolded for being jobless. Instead, the Empress Dowager liked it.
The king of Luyang looked at Gu Jinzhi, and there was a kind of joy of meeting the treasure between his eyebrows.
After a few words, the Empress Dowager was a little tired.
Aunt Cheng asked Gu Jinzhi to enter the inner hall and give the Empress Dowager a pulse.
Song Pan'er stayed alone in the main hall.
"...You are healthy, don't worry." Gu Jinzhi smiled and said to the Empress Dowager, "It's just that after spring, although it is cold, due to the change of the weather, it is sometimes cold and sometimes hot, and it is easy to be infected with warm. Jiazu is good at making purple snow elixir, with loquat leaves and licorice, which is most suitable for the Empress Dowager. I went back to beg my grandfather to make it, and I will send it to the empress dowager tomorrow.
There are many diseases in spring. A person like the Empress Dowager, who has been ill for a long time, is physically weak, old and weak, and has insufficient righteousness. It is easy to be infected with the evil of warmth.
Like yesterday's brother's sister, she is also warm and evil.
"Zi Xue Dan? I remember this name. I'm afraid there are some in the palace pharmacy. The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "You can go to the palace to accompany your family tomorrow. It's good. There's no need to worry about pharmaceuticals."
Zixue Dan comes from Qianjin Yifang, which is a common medicine for the treatment of fever.
The Empress Dowager also eats it in spring and autumn, because the name is easy to sound, so she has a faint impression.
"Our purple snow elixir is different from that in the palace." Gu Jinzhi smiled and said, "The purple snow elixir used in the palace can only clear the mind. In our family, we have added loquat leaves and licorice. These two drugs moisten the lungs and relieve cough, which are most suitable for the Empress Dowager. Taking the usual purple snow elixir in the palace alone, adding loquat leaves and licorice to boil medicine, is not as effective as the pills made. You believe me this time."
The Empress Dowager laughed and said, "I only believe your words. Those doctors in the hospital don't dare to look at it anymore.
In those years, the Empress Dowager was just liver fluid burning, and she was mistaken for wind and cold. As a result, it was delayed and became more and more serious. In the end, she suffered a lot.
Once she was bitten by a snake and was afraid of the well rope for ten years, how dare she use the hospital? Now, she only believes in Gu Jinzhi.
After saying something for half a day, Gu Jinzhi got up and said goodbye.
The Empress Dowager nodded.
When the king of Luyang saw that Gu Jinzhi was about to leave, he cried loudly and took Gu Jinzhi's hand and refused to let go: "Xiaoqi, Xiaoqi, if you don't leave, you can play with me."
The Empress Dowager looked at it and sighed slightly, saying that he was useless.
He is stupid and inhumane. He is single-minded and can't say anything.
Gu Jinzhi's hand gently took his other hand and rubbed it for him a few times. His sudden and anxious mood stabilized a lot.
"We went to Beijing to give gifts for the time being, so we live in the old house. That place is so small that I can't take the prince to play. After a few days, my family moved a big house, and I sent someone to invite the prince, okay?" Gu Jinzhi spoke softly to the king of Luyang.
After saying that, she took the veil and wiped his tears.She was very careful and patient, and the Empress Dowager could see that she did not disguise at all.
The Empress Dowager was moved.
Gu Jinzhi is really caring. She doesn't dislike this stupid child.
The king of Luyang didn't quite understand what Gu Jinzhi said. He knew that Gu Jinzhi was leaving, so he cried and refused to let go.
The empress dowager said, "... When the former emperor built the Luyang Palace, he could not choose the right place. Finally, people from the Ministry of Industry said that after Lord Mu was raided, the house had been vacant and could be used. Lord Mu was raided because of embezzlement and excessive system in those years. The courtyard of Mu's mansion was more luxurious than that in the palace, and everything in the palace was ready-made.
The former emperor agreed and made a slight change to build a mansion for the King of Luyang and the King of Nanchang.
The prince's mansion in Beijing is customized in size. After building a separate courtyard for the King of Luyang and the King of Nanchang, the rest of the place is a little small, which is not enough to customize the mansion for other princes. The late emperor ordered to build a small garden, which was more exquisite, thinking about which princess to reward in the future. It hasn't been rewarded yet. I'm afraid the key is still in the Ministry of Industry.
Gu Jinzhi listened carefully.
These should be old things. How can the Empress Dowager think of it for a while?
I'm afraid I'll think about it first.
No wonder Aunt Cheng was asked to take her home in person last time.
Gu Jinzhi listened and didn't say anything.
The Empress Dowager did not wait for her to speak, but continued to say to Aunt Cheng, "Go and tell the emperor that the Ai family asked for the garden, and asked the people of the Ministry of Industry to send the key immediately, and the Ai family wanted to reward Jinzhi."
Gu Jinzhi immediately said, "Empress Dowager, since it is for the princess to build a house, we can't afford to customize it."
The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "It's okay. The customization over there has not reached the princess's house. It's just small and exquisite, and the gardener is very beautiful. The former emperor wanted to reward the princess for another courtyard. The place is small, but it is very beautiful. On the same day, the mourning family said, if you cure the mourning family, I will make you a princess. Although I don't need it now, I'll give you the garden. You deserve it.
Gu Jinzhi did not refuse any more. He knelt down and kowtowed and thanked him.
The king of Luyang looked at the Empress Dowager and Gu Jinzhi.
The Empress Dowager said, "Zhongjun, Xiaoqi's home will live next door to your house in the future. You can go to play with Xiaoqi every day.
The king of Luyang understood this time. He was overjoyed and smiled, revealing his pure white and neat teeth.
The Empress Dowager was also very happy to see it.
Song Paner waited in the front of the main courtyard. After waiting for a long time, she didn't see Gu Jinzhi come out again. She muttered in her heart, is it that the Empress Dowager's illness has been repeated?
Then I saw Aunt Cheng go out in a hurry.
Song Pan'er is even more confused.
Then, an adult in an official uniform ran in in a hurry.
She waited for half an hour before Gu Jinzhi came out of the inner palace of the Empress Dowager.
Aunt Cheng still gave them mother and daughter.
Out of the palace gate and got into the carriage, Gu Jinzhi showed the key and the house deed to Song Paner: "Mom, this is our house rewarded by the Empress Dowager."
Song Paner is not familiar with the capital. She doesn't know the benefits of this house. She just smiled and said, "Why do you ask the empress dowager for something?"
"I didn't want it. It's the King of Luyang who won't let me go and wants to play at my house. I said that the place is not wide enough, so I will invite him after I move home in a few days. The Empress Dowager asked someone to give me the key and the house deed. I'm afraid it's already ready." Gu Jin's way.
