Meng Shu took a look at the little eunuch in front of her.
It stands to reason that everyone in the palace is a human spirit, especially those who serve the emperor. If they didn't even understand the rules, they would have died countless times.
According to the usual practice, when these eunuchs and maids give things, they must give them to the maids next to them, and it is impossible to give them to Meng Shu first.
The emperor also realized that he had made a mistake.
However, he was just a young eunuch now, and he had disguised himself. He did not believe that Meng Shu could recognize him. After all, his Taiqian Palace did have a good eunuch named Xiao Rongzi. After he had disguised himself, unless he was Someone who is extremely familiar with Xiao Rongzi, otherwise he would definitely recognize him as a fake.
The emperor just stood like this, looking at Meng Shu openly.
Little did he know, he was overthinking it!
Although Meng Shu had returned to Beijing for several months, she had never entered the palace to meet the emperor. She did not know the emperor at all, and naturally she did not know the real Xiao Rongzi.
"Thank you, father-in-law." Meng Shu thanked him with a smile.
"You're welcome, Miss Meng." After the emperor finished speaking, he left quickly.
Meng Shu looked at his retreating back and frowned slightly.
This eunuch, something felt wrong to her!
As everyone knows, the emperor disguised himself as Xiao Rongzi and walked around the palace only a few times.
He had been an emperor for six years and pretended to be a eunuch. Naturally, he didn't look like him, but everyone who had gone to see him before knew his true identity, so they didn't think there was anything wrong with him.
"Miss." Su Ye shouted in a low voice.
Meng Shu came back to her senses, looked at the food box in her hand, and said softly: "Give the things to the maid next to the princess, and let's go sit in the back garden."
The little eunuch was also surprised. Although Princess Jiahe took many people to Taikang Palace, there were also many slaves left in Yaohua Palace.
But he gave her the box of sesame cakes, which was really puzzling.
"Eunuch Zhang, who was the chamberlain just now?" Meng Shu looked at the little eunuch beside him and asked with a smile.
This father-in-law and the other two maids were specially left by Princess Jiahe to serve Meng Shu.
"Miss, that's Xiao Rongzi from Taiqian Palace, one of the eunuchs who are good at the emperor. According to the emperor's order, he came to our Yaohua Palace to deliver food to the princess several times before." Eunuch Zhang quickly replied.
"Does Eunuch Zhang know this Eunuch Rong?" Meng Shu asked.
Hearing this, Eunuch Zhang shook his head: "The people in Taiqian Palace change frequently. This Eunuch Rong has been serving in Taiqian Palace for less than a year. He has only been to Yaohua Palace a few times. I have not spoken to him." I don’t understand.”
"Thank you, Eunuch Zhang!" Meng Shu did not continue to ask. After all, in the palace, some things had to be settled.
She waited in Yaohua Palace for less than half an hour before Princess Jiahe came back.
"Sister Meng, my mother said that the weather has been hot recently. She plans to stay at Taiping's palace for two months, and she wants to take me and my mother there with her."
Princess Jiahe did not expect that the Queen Mother suddenly proposed to go to Chengping Palace to escape the summer heat.
I didn’t go there last year or the year before.
It was a done deal and she couldn't change it.
Both Jia and Princess wanted to take Meng Shu with them.
It was rare to meet someone with whom she felt very compatible and who was not afraid of her. Princess Jiahe was very happy.
However, she did not forget her purpose of finding Meng Shu to enter the palace.
The imperial brother's matters are more important than anything else.
She could only "bear the pain and give up love".
The queen mother said that the emperor's brother was not in good health and was not suitable for long journeys. The Chengping Palace was three hundred miles away from the capital, and the emperor's brother was afraid that he would not be able to bear the fatigue of traveling and traveling. Therefore, she decided to let him stay in the palace.
Three years ago, he went to the palace to escape the summer heat, but the emperor's brother did not go with him.
The queen mother always "considers" the emperor brother, and of course the emperor brother has no reason to refuse.
She could only leave Meng Shu in the capital.
When the time comes, the emperor will definitely find a way to get the person into the palace and give him acupuncture to detoxify him.
When the Queen Mother is not in the palace, it is much easier for the people around the Emperor's brother to arrange these things.
As for whether the imperial brother's identity would be exposed to Meng Shu, it was not something she should worry about.
The imperial brother is very powerful, much more cautious and thoughtful than her.
When she went to the palace, she was beyond reach.
"We will set off in three days. From tomorrow on, Sister Meng will not have to enter the palace to teach me how to whip. When I return to the capital, I will invite Sister Meng to the palace." Princess Jiahe could only arrange this.
Although she felt it was a pity, she felt relieved when she thought of her royal brother.
The imperial brother has been deceived by the Queen Mother for so many years and was almost killed. It's time to get back everything that should belong to him.
As for the Queen Mother's kindness to their mother and daughter?
That's just an uneasy conscience, just a little compensation.
Princess Jiahe felt very sad when she thought that her mother-in-law had endured the pain of losing her son for many years, had her body injured, and her hair turned gray.
She hated the Queen Mother, and she hated her father even more.
If it weren't for my father's partiality, things wouldn't be where they are today.
When Meng Shu came out of Yaohua Palace, it was almost late.
Princess Jiahe left her to have lunch in the palace.
"Princess, please follow me!" Eunuch Zhang led the way.
Yaohua Palace, as the princess's dormitory, is not within the scope of the East and West Twelve Palaces, but is relatively close to Rongan Palace where the concubines take care of themselves.
There is a beautiful small lake outside Rongan Palace called Yanbo Lake. Opposite the lake is Taikang Palace, the Queen Mother's palace.
"Miss Meng, the weather is a bit hot. At this time, most of the masters in the palace are taking a lunch break and will not go out for a walk. I will take you to the side of Yanbo Lake. It is shaded by trees and is cooler." Eunuch Zhang said with a look on his face. said respectfully.
The princess told him to send Miss Meng out of the palace without any mistakes.
Meng Shu declined Princess Jiahe's offer to let her take a lunch break. Although it was a bit hot when she left the palace at noon, she didn't have to meet those people in the palace, which would save a lot of trouble.
A group of Westerners walked around Yanbo Lake. After a while, they suddenly heard a woman's delicate laughter.
The person who could laugh so unscrupulously in the palace must be the emperor's concubine. Meng Shu felt that the voice was a bit familiar.
She was about to ask Eunuch Zhang to take them back to take a detour, when several figures appeared not far away.
The leader was the Concubine De.
She was followed by several palace maids, and a man in a light blue robe stood beside her, waving his fan and talking and laughing.
I don’t know what he said, but it made Concubine De smile sweetly.
At this time, unlike when she came to Yaohua Palace before, she was deliberately putting on airs, her face was full of blush, and her whole body was three points more charming.
As for that man...
Meng Shu has seen it before.
The famous King of Wei, with the will of the Queen Mother and the Emperor, can enter and leave the palace at will.
Everyone in the capital knew about him and he often galloped on the streets. Not long after Meng Shu returned to the capital, she saw him on the street when she went out with her mother.
On that day, the King of Wei led several members of the aristocratic family to gallop on horseback, high-spirited and extremely proud.
Vendors and people on both sides of the street were scrambling to avoid them. Many fell down and knocked their things all over the floor.
King Wei laughed and walked away.
