Chapter 5 The Queen Mother

Mallow's thoughts cannot be told to Zijin, just because Zijin is busy planning for her future, and she is afraid of hurting Zijin's heart if she speaks out, so facing Zijin's words, Mallow can only smile , and changed the subject again, asking why he came here.

Zijin just said

"His Highness has already turned down, and has already gone to Kunning Palace to pay his respects. The Queen Mother sent me to tell you, and I will have breakfast there."

mallow pavement

"That's right, this point should come back."

Zijin glanced inside again, and asked softly.

"There is another thing, this little boy—"

Mallow followed her gaze, couldn't help laughing, and said helplessly

"It's not someone who will cause trouble, but was harmed by a cup of tea from His Highness."

Zijin didn't understand, so he looked at Mallow, and Mallow reluctantly told the whole story.

"Your Highness, for some reason, suddenly became interested in those drugged drugs. He asked the adults of the Tai Hospital to give him a prescription, and came up with a drugged tea. He wanted to find a dog or cat to see the effect, but he didn't know Why did I suddenly become interested and use it on this child? I'm afraid I haven't recovered yet."

After hearing this, Zijin didn't know what to say, so he had to say

"It's so naughty, why don't you remind me, then what kind of bad mood does this child have? If it creates a rift against His Highness, I'm afraid it will be bad."

Mallow knew that she was worried about Ye Luzi bringing it back, and she hadn't learned any rules, and she was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable in front of the prince, so she said

"There's nothing else, it's just that I'm a little cautious when I first come to the palace."

Zijin breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

"It doesn't matter, as long as you don't lose your manners and shrink too much, the empress dowager announced the decree to pass the eye, and said that although the servant is a vacant position, it can't be too shameless."

Mallow was shocked immediately, and hurriedly asked

"This!...Why do you want people to go there?"

Mallow knew that the Empress Dowager would send someone to ask questions, but Xuan went to hold the eye in person, which was a bit unexpected.

His Royal Highness stood by the bed last night and looked at it for a long time, only saying that this person is very interesting, although she didn't see what kind of interesting idea, but the crown prince liked it, usually the queen mother is quite critical, because the prince can do whatever he wants. The people above let her relax a little more—it was just because she loved the eldest son of the emperor very much, so she never said much, and those children were still safe, so she didn't have to take care of them.

It's just that at Mu Jiuhan's young age, it's hard to guarantee that he won't do something ridiculous.

"Don't be nervous, the Empress Dowager knows it well."

Zijin was surprised to see her, patted her on the shoulder, and looked left and right. Seeing them talking, the eunuchs and maids did not dare to approach them, so they said softly:

"Nothing will happen. You know that when the news came out that the crown prince had taken a fancy to someone, the queen mother specially invited people from the Liyuan to watch a play. His mother was originally a teacher in the Liyuan. Huanxin also said that she was actually the daughter of an official, but her family was poor. Later, her parents died early, so she entered the palace as a female official. After a twists and turns, she is now a teacher in Liyuan. The son is not much different, and he said that the father in the family, for several generations, was also a figure who fought the world with the emperor Taizu and was named a marquis. In the early years, he played chess and cards. Although he was not doing his job properly, he did not do anything bad. Later, he got married to his mother and settled down. This child also secretly sent someone to follow him for more than a month. He is smart and quiet. , I just made the rules and sent someone to pick him up, otherwise, do you really think that you would let him into the palace so casually?"

Mallow was surprised by what she said. She also knew that this little Mu Gongzi was the prince's favorite. Yesterday, she thought she had found out the details of Mu Jiuhan's family situation, but she didn't expect that someone had already found out the details of his ancestors ten years ago. The eight generations were all turned up, but after thinking about it, I felt that they were serving the prince after all, as they should be.

So relaxed again, saying

"It should be so, and it is also reassuring."

Zijin smiled.

"Exactly, but it is said that seeing is better than hearing a hundred times. Although I have seen the portraits, I have a general idea. After all, the queen mother is still worried. I need to see it with my own eyes. You go and tell the young master that I will wait here. I will explain some things on the way, as long as he talks less and does less, he will have nothing to fear, and the prince is here, let's go."

Although Mallow was still apprehensive, she had no choice but to follow suit.

Because Mu Jiuhan had breakfast, the mallow girl told him to see the empress dowager, but he felt dazed for a while. The empress dowager—that's the emperor's mother.

I never thought that there would be such a day, and I really feel that these days are like a dream, which is very unreal.

Before he could react, Mallow had already put his clothes on the outer shirt again.

He led him to a gentle-looking elder sister, introduced him carefully, told him to listen to what this elder sister had to say, and then sent him out of the palace, and said something on the way, which was about etiquette. Jiuhan secretly remembered that he only hoped not to make a fool of himself—he was really afraid of making a fool of himself again. These people didn’t mean to treat him badly, but they always felt that they didn’t take him seriously. Yes, Mu Jiu Han bit his inner lip, he was just a child in a remote village, so naturally he couldn't take it seriously, so he thought of the cup of tea that the crown prince made him drink, and he felt depressed at first, but now he felt discouraged, feeling that he was like this Secretly angry, really meaningless.

Arriving at the Kunning Palace, it is completely different from the Taiwo Palace. It is generous and majestic everywhere, and the flowers and trees are well-arranged. The people here are all walking steadily and unsmiling. People are more precious.

Mu Jiuhan also felt anxious

As he entered the door, he heard an old man's voice laughing.

"My son, you found it yourself this time, so you can't make trouble anymore."

That was another compartment, and the voice came from the compartment. Zijin told him to wait, then went to brush the curtain, saluted, and said with a smile

"Empress Dowager, the young master has come to pay his respects."

The sound inside stopped, and then Zijin came back and quietly pulled him in after getting some instructions, but he didn't dare to look up——

As soon as he entered, he knelt down and saluted——

People from the bottom class are not allowed to look directly at these royal family members and nobles. This is against the rules. Although Mu Jiuhan doesn't think so, it's not a place where he can be presumptuous, so he goes to follow the rules without being reminded.

From the corners of his eyes, he felt that the Queen Mother was benevolent and kind, so she shouldn't be someone who would deliberately make things difficult.

Mu Jiuhan thought silently.

Then I heard the Queen Mother say

"Mu Jiuhan—it's not a very lucky name, that's all, what books have you read?"

He lowered his head and spit out a few words

"Three Character Classic and Hundred Family Names."

"Ok?"

Naturally, the old lady couldn't hear clearly. Mu Jiuhan was in a trance, and this attitude was not considered respectful. However, everyone in the room was looking at him at the moment, with big eyes and small eyes, and different thoughts. Kneeling there, his face seemed to be on fire, he couldn't say it a second time, he hesitated, he never knew he would fall into such a situation, and according to the days he was in that alley, he had never been caught in such a situation. I watched it, but I was forced to look anxious, so I said loudly

"Three Character Classic."

The queen mother frowned when she heard that, for a child of an ordinary adult family, at the age of 12, he had to touch the edge of the Four Books and Five Classics, how could he still learn these enlightenment things, so he raised his eyes and looked at the prince angrily, wondering how unreliable it is It's done, but Ji Yi just tapped the corner of his mouth and didn't say anything.

Mu Jiuhan lowered his head and couldn't see it. He just waited anxiously for the result, and thought that it would be best not to like him, and it would be best to send him out immediately. Unfortunately, his wish was not fulfilled. I am not very old, and I can be taught, so I opened my mouth and said

"Get up and write your name to see."

Immediately, someone prepared a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and put them on the case table. Mu Jiuhan had no choice but to stand up and walk over to pick up the pen. In the end, he was eager, and after finishing writing, his handwriting was beautiful, but the strokes were thin and weak, and he couldn't stand up.

A court lady took it and presented it to the old queen mother. The queen mother looked at it for a while and didn't speak, so Mu Jiuhan had to stand uneasy, and felt that it had been a long time before the queen mother said with a smile.

"It's not bad, it's just that I lack some strength, but the name is not very appropriate. When you go to school, let Du Qing's family give it a better name."

Mu Jiuhan breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said yes.

Ji Yi also turned to look sideways, and said, "Old Ancestor, give me this word."

"What do you want it for?"

The Empress Dowager closed the paper and placed it on the table next to her.

"Don't do anything, I'm missing a piece of paper for the corner of the table."

His Royal Highness laughed and said

"Nonsense, why don't you want such a piece of waste paper?"

The queen mother feigned anger, but couldn't help laughing first

"Now that your wish has been fulfilled, you can live in peace in the future, and the court will follow your father to learn more about writing. I am tired, so go."

Ji Yi resigned, and sure enough, he took the piece of paper with him.

On the way back, Mu Jiuhan opened his mouth several times, but couldn't speak. When Ji Yi raised his eyebrows and asked him why he hesitated to speak, Mu Jiuhan said

"Give me that word."

Ji Yi glanced at him and smiled.

"Why should I give it to you?"

Mu Jiuhan didn't speak again. He felt that those few words he said were a joke for these people, so he wanted to destroy them, but he knew the reason himself, so how to say it.

Hence the silence.

Ji Yi just waited for him to say the following, and no one said a word when he arrived at Qifeng Palace, it was like a boring gourd, but he felt a little boring.
