" Imperial Noble Consort, Lady Hesheri is here to see you." Zhi Hong, who was wearing a green palace dress, bowed and reported outside the screen.
Xianying raised her head and instructed Granny Cui who was standing beside the bed,""Nanny Cui, after you invite Mother in, stand guard outside. Without BenGong's permission, no one is allowed to enter."
Seeing her master's expression, which showed no emotion, Granny Cui did not dare to ask any more questions. She lowered her head and said," Yes." She was originally an old servant of the Tong Jia family. Everyone in the family was controlled by the Tong family. Although her status was slightly different after entering the palace, Granny Cui, who knew the methods of the Hershey family, still respectfully invited her into the inner room.
" Nanny Cui, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I wonder why this Imperial Noble Consort is so anxious to invite me into the palace this time." This daughter who had been bewitched by the Emperor really made her and Old Master worry so much that their hair turned white. However, because she was the only Di daughter in the family and the only daughter of the Tong family's direct line of descent, they didn't do anything to the Tong family after she entered the palace and didn't care about her.
Seeing that the people around them were standing in a place where it was not easy to hear their conversation, she moved closer to Hershey. She lowered her head so that no one could see her slightly moving lips. She whispered that after the Imperial Noble Consort gave birth to the Eighth Princess, she saw that the Eighth Princess missed her master and Fujin very much, so she ordered her to send a message to summon her into the palace.
After saying this, she did not stop talking. Since the Royal Noble Consort gave birth to the Eighth Princess, not only did her noble aura become stronger, but her personality was also not the same as before. This made Nanny Cui, who had no idea, talk about what had happened in the past few days without thinking when she saw Hershely. Although she should not talk about it in such a dangerous place, she was an old nanny beside the Royal Noble Consort in the palace. Any slight movement would be spread by the ears and ears of the concubines in the palace. It was not easy to find such an opportunity.
" Master's appearance has changed drastically since he gave birth to the eighth princess. If it weren't for the fact that this servant had taken care of him since he was young, I really wouldn't believe that he was Master." Nanny Cui thought of the gentle and beautiful eyes that looked at the eighth princess, as if she was trying to figure something out. It really made her feel uneasy from the bottom of her heart.
After listening to Nanny Cui's conversation, Hesheri saw that they had arrived at the inner palace gate and could not elaborate further. She hurriedly threw down a warning sentence, It's better to do less guessing of Master's thoughts in the future. Back then, Old Master and I asked you to accompany Imperial Noble Consort into the palace because we valued your loyalty and didn't say anything. I think you won't disappoint us.
Glancing at Nanny Cui, he walked into the inner chamber of the rear hall, leaving Nanny Cui, who was shocked by the seemingly unintentional glance. The trusted nanny of the dowry in the palace wanted to leave the palace, but there was no other way out.
After entering the side hall, Lady Hesheli saw that there was no one waiting on her in the room. She turned around and saw that there was only Nanny Cui standing guard outside the door. She thought of what Nanny Cui had said on the way, that the Imperial Noble Consort had lost interest in the Emperor. She was so obviously avoiding outsiders to talk. Even in the Tong family, Xianying would not do such a thing. It seemed that if something big had not happened, it was that her daughter had lost interest in the Emperor just as Nanny Cui had said.
She quickly walked a few steps and walked around the screen to see Xianying sitting by the bed, looking at her with slightly red eyes and tearful eyes. Hershery was really frightened by Xianying's wronged look. She did not bow and quickly went forward to stop her daughter who wanted to get off the bed and come to her.
" Xianying, are you going to feel sorry for your mother? What exactly happened?" As for the only daughter in the family, even Lady Hershey was proud of Xianying's noble status in the palace. However, it could not be said that she did not have a trace of reluctance to send her to this place that ate people. She was still her biological cousin, and everyone in the Tong family could see Xianying's feelings for the Emperor. It was not easy to enter the palace as a noble consort, but she had not been pregnant for so many years, which still made her feel wronged.
Hearing Hershey call her by her maiden name, Xianying could not help but sigh at the coincidence of fate again. Looking at the woman in ancient costume who had a loving face, she clearly knew that her heart was only aching for the original owner of this body, but her heart was still comforted by this undisguised concern.
She gently leaned her head on Hershey's shoulder and said the words that she thought would not be easy to say, with a slightly aggrieved tone," Mother, Xianying misses you and Ama so much. I really want to go home."
Her voice was not trembling at all, but it made Hershey's heart ache. However, no matter how much she wanted to agree, she could not make a promise. She could only gently stroke her thin back and comfort her silently.
For a long time, no one in the room spoke to break the silence. It was Xianying who had to say something because she had something on her mind. She raised her head from Hesherry's arms and said, Mother, I don't want to say that I've suffered. That's something that I have to bear with my current noble status, but that doesn't mean that I have to swallow all this pain for nothing."
Hearing her daughter's domineering words, Lady Hershey couldn't help but think that this was her daughter. The methods she taught before entering the palace were only left with the delicate and brainless after entering the palace. She couldn't help but feel sorry for her and disappointed in her disappointment. Now that she had thought it through, how could she not help it as her mother? She smiled and said," Mother is finally alive and waiting for you to come to your senses. How can an emperor fall for someone so easily? The Tong family is the emperor's mother's family and outsiders have to be respected, but the Tong family isn't even a yellow flag. Which one of them really thinks highly of them?"
How could Xianying not hear the euphemistic persuasion in Hershey's words? If it was really the Tong Jiashi of the past, she definitely wouldn't have taken it to heart. If she was a little more stupid, she might have gone to Kang Xi and asked to raise the imperial flag without knowing her identity. However, thinking about how the Tong family was only able to raise the imperial flag after Tong Jiashi's death, it was also possible.
Thinking of this, Xianying thought that she should be more careful in the future. However, she still had time to think about it. Seeing that Hershery was not confused by the superficial flattery and was quite clear about the reality, it saved her a lot of trouble. Thinking that Hershery had time to enter the palace, she did not waste time to test her. She said to Mother, Mother, don't worry. I'll be more careful in the palace in the future, but the most important thing now is to think of a way to get the Tong family out of this awkward situation."
"That's easier said than done. Your Amma has always been very concerned about this matter," Hershery said with a sigh. However, when she raised her head and saw Xianying smiling at the corner of her eyes, something suddenly flashed through her mind." You invited me into the palace because of this. Could it be that you have a good idea?"
She lifted the thin golden quilt covering her body and gently patted the nervous and unhappy Hershey. She got up and walked to the dressing table beside the bed. She opened the jewelry box and casually took out a rather heavy gold bracelet. She smiled and put the bracelet on Hershey's wrist. After carefully covering her with her sleeve, she raised her head slightly and said proudly, Not only does Bengong have a way to change the Tong family's current awkward situation, but I can also make the Tong family a family that no one dares to underestimate in the Qing Dynasty. However, this also depends on whether Ma and the Tong family dare to gamble with Bengong."
Seeing her arrogant look, Hershey was amused by her immature personality, but after hearing her words, she was a little uncertain.
