Chapter 658 Letters
Because there were no elders around, the gathering of Bai Ling and others was very enjoyable, and the two younger sisters were reluctant to let her leave.
But on the day of returning home, it was against the rules to take my sisters to stay for a while.
Baicao asked them to stay with her for two more days on the grounds that she missed her sisters, and then went to the Han Palace. Shangguan Yu would naturally not say anything unwelcome.
The return gift was generous, and when leaving, Baicao also prepared a return gift. In addition to some gadgets given by his two sisters, there were also two carriages.
"Prince Princess, someone asked me to deliver a message to you, saying that you would give me a reward." A little beggar stood more than ten meters away from the gate of the Han Dynasty and shouted at Bai Ling.
Bai Ling and Shangguan Yu looked at each other, then winked at Nian Xia and asked her to get the letter and ask the little beggar a few questions.
After Nian Xia gave the little beggar a few pieces of silver, he shook the money bag in his hand, asked several questions, and then let him go.
Bai Ling and Shangguan Yu naturally would not wait outside.
The couple went to pay their respects to Princess Han before returning to their new house.
Even though Princess Han doesn't adhere to these rules, she is an elder, and Bai Ling doesn't mind these etiquettes, as long as she doesn't mean to tease others.
"Master, the little beggar doesn't know anything. He only said that he was a girl wearing a maid's clothes. He gave him this letter and asked him to deliver it to the master." Nian Xia handed the letter to Bai Ling and stepped aside.
After Bai Ling opened the letter, his expression suddenly changed. He handed the letter to Shangguan and told Nian and Xia: "Go and guard the door, don't allow anyone to come near."
Seeing this, Nian Xia and Jian Qiu hurriedly exited and sat down as door gods.
Shangguan Yu held Bai Ling's hand with one hand and picked up the letter with the other.
After reading the contents of the letter, Shangguan Yu's face turned gloomy.
"You can't go by yourself, this is obviously a trap set by someone." Shangguan Yu denied.
"But I can't ignore Bai Wei's safety." Bai Ling frowned, "You have to believe that I can protect myself."
"But you can't hide in at any time, there's no guarantee what will happen." Shangguan Yu insisted: "There is still time, I will arrange everything. If Bai Wei is really in danger, she will be brought out safely.
.”
"Shangguan!" Bai Ling called softly.
"As long as it involves your safety, there will be no discussion." After Shangguan Yu said this, he stood up to make arrangements.
Bai Ling frowned, his eyes fell on the unsigned letter, and he was silent for a long time.
Royal Palace.
After the emperor was poisoned, he often came to sit with the queen.
It's not that the emperor trusted the queen more, but that the emperor had no other thoughts towards the queen, so he naturally wouldn't be angry because of his situation, but felt much calmer.
"Your Majesty, try it. This is the scented tea that I have prepared in recent days. See if it suits your taste. The imperial doctor said that this scented tea has the effect of calming the mind. I tried it for a few days, and I actually slept more soundly at night."
The queen smiled and brought a cup of tea to the emperor.
The emperor did not like to drink scented tea, but he had not slept well for several months, and even the imperial doctor's Ningshen Decoction had little effect, so he drank a cup with the intention of giving it a try.
"The queen is very elegant. I remember that you didn't like to do this before because you were afraid of getting your hands dirty." The emperor glanced at the queen's hands and found a few red and swollen wounds. He frowned and asked, "Why don't you let the imperial doctor do it?"
Prescribe some medicine?”
"Use it, the injury is not serious, and it will heal in a few days. I am also clumsy, but with a cup of scented tea, it can still hurt." The queen said softly: "In the past, my heart could not calm down.
There are many things in the harem, so where can I have the leisure to do these things?"
"The harem has become a lot more peaceful recently." The emperor frowned, and belatedly noticed how quiet the harem was. He understood why, so he changed the subject and asked casually: "The queen has been able to calm down recently.
?”
"Yes, I have been serving the Queen Mother for a while, accompanying her in chanting sutras and worshiping Buddha, and my mood has become much calmer. Now I just hope that the harem will be peaceful, so that I can have time to worship Buddha and do some things that I have never done before.
Something I have tried." The queen said, took the Buddhist scripture she had copied, handed it to the emperor, and asked: "Your Majesty, look at my concubine's handwriting, have you made any progress?"
"Well, it's not difficult to tell from the font that your mood has indeed changed." The emperor nodded, very satisfied with the queen's current state, "Prince's Mansion, maybe it's been a long time since there were new people, so you should pay more attention to your body.
As a heir, it is also important to have an heir as soon as possible."
"Let the Crown Princess arrange this matter. I have enough trouble managing the harem, but I don't want to interfere with the affairs of the Prince's Mansion anymore." The Queen refused with a smile.
The crown prince's concubine's position is still available, and Liang Di's position is not restricted.
Nowadays, there are many women in the Prince's Palace, but there is only one little princess and no little grandson. The queen is naturally unhappy, but it is difficult to show it.
As for whether the Crown Princess is willing to choose a woman for the Crown Prince, it is not up to the Crown Princess herself, unless she does not want to be the Crown Princess.
The sorrow of the royal family is that even between husband and wife, there is no way to talk about it.
When it comes to matters related to the Prince's Mansion, both of them have their own plans and have to think carefully about it.
The prince was not in the prince's residence at this time.
In an inconspicuous small villa on the outskirts of Beijing, the prince was drinking fine wine with a beautiful woman in his arms. Not to mention how moist he was, he did not look like a prince of a country.
"He's not here yet?" The prince would ask the attendant every once in a while.
"Your Majesty, no." The attendant replied, bowing very low, fearing that the prince would lose his patience at some point and take it out on him.
"Let's explore again." Most of the prince's good mood disappeared at once.
In a corner of Zhuangzi, there is a private house that looks like an ordinary house. You would not associate this place with Zhuangzi at all.
Bai Wei was sitting in a small house in the middle. Although the servants in the house were serving her, they were more like her guardians.
"I'm hungry, go to the kitchen and have a look. Why haven't you brought me food?" Bai Wei kept staring outside, with a mixture of anticipation and nervousness, but also a bit of fear that she wasn't necessarily aware of.
One of the girls responded and went out to the kitchen to order food.
"I want to eat fruit. You go and prepare some and bring them over." Bai Wei said to the maid who had not left.
"Miss Bai, please forgive me. The prince ordered the slaves to serve the girl. Before Xiaohong comes back, the slaves cannot leave the girl." The maid was blessed, but her tone was neither humble nor arrogant.
Bai Wei was angry in her heart, but she didn't show any expression on her face.
It's said to be serving, but actually it's monitoring, and everyone knows it.
With Bai Wei's identity, how could she go against the prince's wishes?
"Where are my friends?" Bai Wei asked after a moment of silence.
"Mr. Chu is in another room, Miss Bai, just don't worry." The maid could answer, but she did not hesitate to inform Bai Wei, but said nothing more.
"I want to see him." Bai Wei turned her head, looked at the girl, and said seriously: "I want to ensure his safety, please go and ask His Highness the Crown Prince for instructions."
The maid hesitated for a while and then said: "I would like to advise Miss Bai not to make His Highness unhappy at this time, otherwise the girl's friends will have to suffer."
Bai Wei bit her lip angrily, what she said was so clear, what else could she do?
