Spring Forest Evening

When he came out of the shop, Zhou Heng still told Chun Yu to remember to keep the matter of Fushi from Shen when he went back.

"Don't worry, girl," Chun Yu thought she understood Miss Biao's mind, pursed her lips and nodded with a confident smile:

"Unless you speak in person at that time, no one will ever get a word from this servant!"

Zhou Heng smiled and didn't say anything after hearing this. Actually, she hasn't decided whether she should give this seal to Shen Fu or not.

After much deliberation, I finally found a reason for myself on the carriage back to the palace:

If there are changes in the capital at that time, and I have to go to Zhuangzi to take refuge earlier, then I will give it to Shen Fu as a birthday present. After all, I don’t know what will happen later; Since he is still safe and sound in the palace, it is better not to take out this black jade seal.

As for what birthday gift to give Shen Fu, Zhou Heng thought about it, and finally decided with an ostrich mentality: wait until he meets Shen Yi at the hot spring village, maybe he can get some inspiration from the gift she prepared.

Having made up his mind, Zhou Heng stopped thinking about it, and just followed Chun Yu to look through the clothes and other items he bought...

Two days later, she did receive a letter from Shen Yi, saying that she was going to take her son to Zhuangzi.Zhou Heng originally planned to take Chuntao by himself in the carriage, but Shen Fu was worried, so in the end he asked Shen Yi's carriage to go around to Prince Jing's mansion to pick up Zhou Heng's master and servant.

Because it was just pretending to deliver something, the carriage only stopped in the outer courtyard for a short time, and Shen Yi's mother and son did not get out of the carriage, just waiting for Zhou Heng to get on the carriage.

I haven't seen Ah Hua for a few days, but the little guy still remembers her. Seeing Zhou Heng lift the curtain and come in, he happily clapped his hands and called her: "Hello, sister!"

Zhou Heng also came prepared, and upon seeing this, he handed him a ceramic fasting bird:

"Good boy, I'll give you a gift!"

Last time I saw him holding the bird that he said he shot down and refused to let it go, I think he would like it, and there is a rope under the tail of the bird, pulling it out can make it make a songbird sound , very delicate, of course, for the safety of the journey, Zhou Heng did not explain this mechanism to the little guy, but said vaguely:

"Ah Hua, you should sleep next to your mother obediently, and when we arrive, my sister will do a trick for you."

After the carriage couldn't help shaking, not long after leaving the city gate, the little guy really fell asleep leaning against his mother's arms. Shen Yi laid him down and took a pillow for him to put under his head, while smiling and taking I took a closer look at the bird in Ahua's hand, and learned that the bird's cry was quite imitative, and praised Zhou Heng:

"This ceramic bird looks good, and it's a good thing you didn't teach Ah Hua how to pull, otherwise our journey would be unsafe!"

After talking about the toys, he asked Zhou Heng to sit next to her, and while taking a fan to fan his son from time to time, he began to whisper about the situation when he entered the palace to meet the queen mother two days ago:

"I've seen it, hey, I raised her with red lips and white teeth, not to mention, this empress dowager is really good-looking, she is almost forty, and she still has a charming charm. This kind of raising is even better than before. , Hmph, no wonder..."

"But Ah Heng, let's not care about the age of this woman and the woman. Although her appearance is given by her parents, the acquired circumstances actually have an impact on her appearance. If nothing else, she is considered a You are the empress dowager, after all, she is also a widowed woman. Isn't it because she is sick in the name of being the first to beat her? Her daughter is going to be sick, so it's a bit serious, right? It turned out that she recovered so well in a short period of time? "

"Although I'm not completely sure, but seeing her like this, I'm very sure, because there are people in my backyard who had a miscarriage, and they were raised well during confinement, so they look so good. So, our empress dowager, hehe, it should be almost inseparable!"

"Later, I offered mint cake, saying it was for clearing away the heat and relieving the heat, and I made it myself, but the queen mother didn't eat a single bite, and the nuns in the Palace of Compassion and Peace even covered her shame, saying that mint is pungent and cool, but, hehe , Eldest Sister, I have long guarded against their tricks!"

"The previous time I entered the palace, I didn't see her old man. The mother of the Compassionate Ning Palace who came out to receive her said that the summer was hot and the empress dowager was a little sick. I asked, and what was said there? I have a slight headache, so isn’t this peppermint just right? Besides, no matter how bad it is, peppermint can clear the mind and eyesight.”

"After hearing what the nanny said to cover up her shame this time, I pretended to be sincere and guilty, saying that I remembered what the nanny said last time, and I went to ask the doctor and had someone teach me how to do it. I made a mint cake, but I didn’t think about it, but I still made a mistake.”

"Actually, at that time, it didn't matter whether she ate the cake or not. She was raised so healthy, but the nanny opened her eyes and told nonsense. It was already suspicious, and I just asked someone to present the mint cake with its name on it." At that time, the empress dowager didn't even look at it, which is not the reaction of ordinary people, not to mention that our empress dowager has done a good job in the past."

"At that time, I pretended not to understand, and tried a piece in front of everyone to prove that it was delicious and safe, but I was still dismissed by the nanny. Fortunately, I didn't expect her to understand. Eat, I even prepared a set of excuses in advance, hmph, I finally entered the palace, I can't go back empty-handed!"

"After hearing Mammy's words, I pretended to be sad, saying that I was rejected by my mother-in-law, but now I did such a foolish thing again. I knelt down in front of the empress dowager to plead guilty."

"Ah Heng, your eldest sister, I am also a princess who was proclaimed by the late emperor. Didn't the queen mother claim to take me into the palace as a daughter to raise me? The mint cake I made by myself is not flattering, so other things will always save face. To give."

"That's why I was so 'sad', and then there was the matter that the mother of the Palace of Compassion and Ning sent me back to the mansion in person. That was the old man in front of the queen mother. She didn't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face, so scared that my old woman hurried out to personally At the reception, the nanny pretended to say something again, why the empress dowager and I have an extraordinary relationship, she is very concerned about Yunyun, an orphan girl who has lost her mother and concubine, she kept nodding her head and dared not say anything more about our old lady, Hehe, it can be regarded as an excuse for you in disguise!"

"In the past two days, the old woman has settled down. She has been eating fast and reciting Buddha in her yard, and she deliberately spared me the morning and evening meditation. It is an excuse to ask someone to pass the word, saying that the weather is not too cold now, so let her go to Zhuangzi to stay for a while, and when the time comes, Master Hou will pick her up together."

"The old lady has learned to be good this time, and she politely asked the maid in front of her to come out and spread the word, saying that the weather is no longer unbearably hot in the morning and evening, and it is enough to use a little ice at noon. She is getting older. I don't want to move any more."

"Again, it's hard for me to stay at home in the capital all the time. Now, before Master Hou returns to the capital, I can take Ah Hua out for a few days. There will be no shortage of people around her. No matter how bad it is, there will still be Master Hou." The concubine is serving."

"Since she said it herself, listening to her mother-in-law is also filial piety, so it's better to be respectful than to obey. Anyway, this idea was passed on to her on purpose, and I sent someone to give it to you before." Believe me, if you don't go, you will lose..."
