Chapter 233 Surprise
When I went out before late autumn, I saw Yuzhi coming in from the outside and said, "What happened to my mother? Just now, I heard from Grandpa Ji that there was something going on in your room.
Mo Ziyao took a look at her and shook her head and said, "It's okay. It's just that the incense burner in my room is broken. Let Wanqiu wait and change it."
Hearing Mo Ziyao say this, she stopped talking and stood aside in silence.
After a while, Mo Ziyao remembered something and asked, "Is the Empress Dowager still in Lingyi Palace?"
Yuzhi was stunned and said hurriedly, "I heard that the Empress Dowager went out later, as if she had gone to Tianze Palace. Later, Mrs. Ya's sister-in-law came. Mrs. Ya really has a lot of face. The Empress Dowager can promise to let her sister-in-law come to the palace to take care of her.
Mo Ziyao bowed her head and said nothing, and the greater comfort for Mrs. Ya is still ahead. Now she just allowed Mrs. Liu to come in to visit, which is nothing.
As for her saying that the Empress Dowager went to Tianze Palace...
It seems that the Empress Dowager is also worried that the Liu family will use this matter as an excuse to make some unreasonable demands. Mo Ziyao vaguely felt that there would be no such thing to stop. Whether Liu Junya's stillbirth is an accident or not, this matter will be investigated until someone dies.
When I thought of this, my heart trembled.
Mo Ziyao thought that the explanation that the Liu family wanted was more practical than one statement.
After sitting for a while, it was getting brighter, so I ordered Yuzhi to clean myself. I don't know if I will go to Tairen Palace this morning to send my peace to the Empress Dowager. It's not necessary to think about it. Because of Mrs. Ya, the Empress Dowager must have been too busy to sleep all night. But whether you need to go or not, you can't sleep this time.
After grooming, I went to the hall. It happened that late autumn came in from the outside. Yuzhi, who was beside her, instinctively looked up and saw that late autumn, who had disappeared early in the morning, came back. Her eyes turned slightly, as if to ask unintentionally, "Well, late autumn, you didn't stay in the palace early in the morning. Where did you go crazy?"
Mo Ziyao also looked up and saw Wanqiu rushing in. Wanqiu first stared at Yuzhi, then quickly to Mo Ziyao and took out the veil from her sleeve, wrapped in a small piece of incense. Without her saying anything, Mo Ziyao also knew that the incense must be something in Mrs. Ya's palace.
Yuzhi hurriedly came over to have a look. Seeing that there was just some broken incense in the handkerchief, she muttered, "It's just a piece of incense. Do you need such a mysterious thing?"
Mo Ziyao's face gradually became solemn. At this time, Wanqiu was about to say something more. Mo Ziyao looked at her, looked at Yuzhi, and said slowly, "By the way, Yuzhi, go to the small kitchen to see if the chicken soup I made for the emperor is ready."
As soon as she heard that she was going to send soup to the emperor, Yuzhi's eyes obviously flashed an excited light. She said 'Oh' and didn't think much about it.
Late Qiu presented the things to Mo Ziyao, and then said, "Mother, I went in time. The people of the Ministry of Internal Affairs are about to deal with the things in the incense burner. Look, the maidservant secretly took a paragraph."
Mo Ziyao stretched out her hand and took the small piece of incense out of her handkerchief. She lowered her head and smelled it. Wanqiu said anxiously, "Mother!"
Mo Ziyao smiled and said, "It's okay." I'm not pregnant. Even if there is really musk, there is no Kansai.
Lanqiu said, "I smelled it when I got it. It's an ordinary smell of incense, and there is nothing else."
Mo Ziyao nodded. The fragrance did smell, as late Qiu said, but it was just a very ordinary smoked fragrance, and then smiled unconsciously. If she could smell something strange, how could Mrs. Ya not notice it?
Looking up at Wanqiu, Mo Ziyao whispered, "If this incense is mixed with musk or red flowers, can you see it?"
Hearing this, Wanqiu shook her head. "I don't understand this, but if you want to say who is most familiar with spices in this palace, you have to count Mrs. Yun. She loves flowers and plants and is also involved in spices.
"Oh?" Mo Ziyao was shocked and didn't expect that her 'cause' who didn't care about the world' planted flowers and plants in the palace all day long. It turned out that it was not as simple as watching!
But she will never be stupid enough to take this incense to ask her. Just thinking that if she plays with these things all day, I don't know that the fetus in her womb will be affected by this.
The corners of her lips unconsciously showed a smile, but she saw Yuzhi coming in with a food box. Mo Ziyao closed the handkerchief and wrapped this small piece of incense again and put it in her arms. He got up and said, "Go to prepare a sedan chair. I'm going to Tianze Palace."
"Mother!" Late autumn frowned and called.
Mo Ziyao said with a faint smile, "What are you worried about? I have my own moderation." She won't be stupid enough to ask Ruan Lingzheng in person if there is any problem with this fragrance. She just wants to explore his style.
The sedan chair slowly stopped to Tianze Palace. In late autumn, he came forward to inquire. When he came back, he said that the emperor was not in the palace and was still in the royal study behind.
Mo Ziyao was slightly shocked and said quickly, "Why, the Liu family hasn't left yet?"
Wanqiu shook his head: "No, Grandpa Gan said that there is only one emperor at this moment."
Mo Ziyao nodded and said, "Then go to the imperial study."
At the door of the imperial study, Mo Ziyao took a look at the two maids. Wanqiu retreated to one side knowingly and handed over the food box. But before Mo Ziyao could pick it up, Yuzhi had already reached out to carry the food box.
A trace of displeasure flashed in Mo Ziyao's eyes and stopped her and said, "Wait here." She looked at Mo Ziyao doubtfully. Although there was unwillingness in her eyes, she did not say anything.
Looking up, he saw Eunuch Gan guarding outside and stepped forward. He saw Mo Ziyao and hurriedly greeted her and said, "I greeted the noble concubine. How did the noble concubine come through the imperial study?"
Mo Ziyao smiled and pointed to the food box in her hand. Gan Gong Guild hurried forward to pick it up.
Mo Ziyao was not in a hurry to go in, but her eyes fell on the other side. There were several guards holding weapons and standing straight there, but their heads were very low and they could not see their appearance clearly.
On weekdays, there is no one here. I don't know why an escort was sent here today?
Those guards lowered their heads in a regular manner and didn't even raise their eyes when they saw Mo Ziyao. Fortunately, I understood what Ruan Lingzheng meant for a long time, and I was not surprised. Looking around, there was no one else except them. I think it must have been Ruan Lingzheng who ordered not to be disturbed.
Unexpectedly, when her eyes passed the guards again, one of them just raised his head and looked at her, and their eyes met in the air in an instant.
Mo Ziyao's heart was shocked. Looking at the person in front of her, she was so surprised that even her emotions almost got out of control. Optimus Prime!" It turned out to be Qingtian. He knew that he was in the palace for a long time, but he didn't want to see himself, so he never found him. Unexpectedly, after searching for so long, in fact, the person I was looking for has always been around and has never been far away.
Chu Qingtian and Mo Ziyao looked at each other, and his originally slightly flustered eyes gradually overflowed with joy and excitement. He raised the corners of his lips and smiled softly at Mo Ziyao. His face was slightly moved, and his body moved, but he did not take half a step. Still only at the door of the imperial study.
Although Grandpa Gan can't see Mo Ziyao's look at this moment, he can see Chu Qingtian's look clearly. He frowned slightly and said, "Lord Chu." He is reminding Chu Qingtian that the noble concubine can't look directly. Have you seen the emperor's order? Can you be intuitive?
Mo Ziyao quickly stabilized her mind and bowed slightly to Chu Qingtian and said, "Thank you for that day!" Then he calmly turned around and explained to Eunuch Gan: "This guard of this palace knows that he had sacrificed himself to save the emperor's life in Humadu that day. I just didn't expect to see him here.
Saying this, Mo Ziyao thought in her heart: What a Ruan Lingzheng, no wonder you have to let the bodyguards lower their heads when they see me. It turned out that they were afraid that I would recognize Qingtian one day! I didn't expect your emperor to be so narrow.
Although he thinks so, there is a warm current in his heart. Although he is sometimes really domineering and unreasonable, he is only doing this to himself.
Many of the depressions when she originally came were gradually swept away.
"The Empress doesn't have to be polite. It is an incumbent responsibility to protect the emperor." Chu Qingtian reacted quickly and replied seriously with a righteous and indignant expression.
Although Grandpa Gan didn't go to the battlefield with him last time, he still heard that Chu Qingtian saved the emperor and was promoted to the imperial guard, and he didn't think much about it now.
Mo Ziyao no longer looked at the two and was ready to go in, but Grandpa Gan stepped forward, blocked the door, and said awkwardly, "Your Majesty, I'll help you send things to the emperor. Emperor...Your Majesty said that no one is allowed to go in and disturb him.
Mo Ziyao was slightly stunned, thought about it, and didn't force it, so she reluctantly smiled and said, "Then... I won't go in. Let your father-in-law help you give the chicken soup to the emperor. Oh, by the way, it's not good if the soup is cold. After saying that, he turned around and was ready to leave.
"I will send it in immediately. The noble concubine, take your time." After saying that, Eunuch Gan was afraid that the soup would be slowed down, which made the emperor unhappy and hurried to carry the food box in.
Mo Ziyao took two steps and saw that Grandpa Gan was no longer there, so she turned around and walked straight to Chu Qingtian.
Seeing Mo Ziyao coming over, Chu Qingtian was obviously surprised and looked at her from joy to complex. Now she is a high-ranking noble concubine, and she can't still be her own simple and lovely Yao girl.
For a moment, he only felt a little pain in his heart, and his eyes were also a little sore. But in this case, reason still suppresses all emotions. He wanted to bend down to salute Mo Ziyao, but he heard Mo Ziyao say hurriedly, "You don't have to salute. I have something to ask you to help with." As he spoke, he took out the thing in his sleeve and stuffed it to him with a veil. He lowered his voice and said, "Help me check that there is something like musk on it. Hurry up!"
Hearing the word " musk", all his mood returned to tranquility in an instant. He also knew about Mrs. Ya's death last night. Now Mo Ziyao suddenly gave this to him, and his face suddenly changed.
Everyone knows what this is for, and everyone knows that Mrs. Ya's child suddenly died last night.
Mo Ziyao naturally knew what he was thinking, so she said, "In this deep palace, you are the only person I can trust, and also my only support."
His eyes became firm in an instant. He nodded hard and called down: "Ziyao..." Fang wanted to speak, so he heard footsteps behind him. He quickly closed his mouth and hid the things Mo Ziyao stuffed for him.
"Brother Chu!" Before the person arrived, a clear female voice had come in.
Mo Ziyao looked up and saw a girl in a cyan skirt walking this way quickly.
"Huh? Sister Jing'er is also there. Approaching, the girl naturally found the existence of Mo Ziyao. He spit out his fragrant tongue and bowed politely, "I have seen the noble concubine."
Mo Ziyao was a little stunned, then quickly reacted, walked over, helped her up, and smiled, "Don't be polite. Did Phil also come to see your brother?"
Her eyes looked into the hall and hummed, "Well, I don't want to look at him. I'm here to find Brother Chu." While talking, his eyes have fallen on Chu Qingtian.
