The queen has been too worried these days and has a bad appetite. Every time she brings the dishes to the table, she only tastes them briefly before asking the palace maid to leave.
Winter was a good time to take supplements, but his wife didn't eat much and had to lose a lot of weight. Eunuch Gui saw this and was anxious in his heart.
Seeing the roasted pigeon brought by Li Sixu, the queen actually ate half of it?
Eunuch Gui was very discerning and said: "The old slave asked someone to heat up the rock sugar bird's nest stewed in the royal kitchen and bring it to the empress and the little princess to relieve their tiredness."
After eating half a roasted squab, the queen was indeed a little tired of it.
Li Sixu's eyes lit up when she heard the rock sugar bird's nest, and the queen couldn't help laughing and nodded: "Hurry up and bring it!"
After the mother and daughter had a cup of rock-sugar bird's nest each, the queen had a great appetite and accompanied Li Sixu to eat half a piece of jujube cake. When Eunuch Gui sent Li Sixu away, he was extremely grateful.
"Every time I see the little princess, I feel much happier."
Eunuch Gui warned: "That is to say, the little princess is here and the queen is willing to eat these things. The little princess must come to Nanxun Hall to accompany the queen often when she has free time."
Eunuch Gui looked like he wished he could leave Li Sixu in Nanxun Palace. Li Sixu sighed: "To make the queen mother happy, we have to solve the problem from the source."
There was a person who kept saying to the Queen every day that she had nothing to offer and was a rootless person in the Daming Palace.
For Queen Wang, who was deeply concerned about Xuanzong, how could she not take it to heart?
Li Sixu reminded Eunuch Gui: "Forgive Sisi for speaking frankly, those words Sister Chunxia said were too heart-breaking. I hope Eunuch-in-law can give me a few more words."
Eunuch Gui thinks so!
Since the last time in the Shangyi Bureau, Chunxia had a dispute with the girl Ke'er next to Wu Jieyu, so she plunged into a dead end and had the idea of giving birth to a child for the empress.
He also said that he would never get married in this life and would stay in the palace with the Queen.
I don’t know how Ke’er next to Wu Jieyu stimulated Chunxia to have such twisted thoughts?
Although Li Sixu looks like a little adult, she is still a child. Eunuch Gui thinks that it is better not to let the little princess know about the grudges between adults.
He nodded in agreement and said that he would ask Chunxia for some advice later.
Li Sixu crossed the high threshold with her short legs. Eunuch Gui was stunned when he saw that the person waiting outside was not Li Linhuai but a familiar female guard.
"I remember that Your Majesty sent Duke Ji to follow the little princess?"
"Master Zuo Wei has family affairs and has never been on duty in the palace."
Li Sixu originally felt that something was wrong with Li Linhuai taking a nap for several days in a row.
Ever since his father sent him to protect her in secret, he had never been away from her for so many days. Suddenly there was one less person around him. Li Sixu felt empty in her heart. She always expected that the person who was protecting her in secret would suddenly show up. come out.
Even today when she came all the way from Shangyang Palace to Nanxun Palace, she subconsciously looked back several times to look for that familiar figure.
However, Master Zuo Wei did not surprise her, and the person accompanying her was still Liu Yunying.
Seeing that Eunuch Gui was hesitant to speak, Li Sixu looked at him with clear eyes.
Knowing that he couldn't hide it, Eunuch Gui made a gesture of slapping himself: "Look at this old slave's bad mouth!"
Being watched by Li Sixu all the time, Eunuch Gui had no choice but to reveal a little bit of what he knew to Li Sixu.
"I bumped into General Zuo Yulin who was on duty in the palace yesterday. It seems that there were some bad rumors in the capital about the banquet in the water on the Double Ninth Festival."
"Well, the Queen is still waiting for us to serve you, and I have gone back to work as an errand."
Eunuch Gui looked like he knew he had made a mistake. He was afraid that Li Sixu would pursue him and ask questions, so he hurriedly turned back to Nanxun Hall.
You are a lot older, but you can run faster than a rabbit?
How can anyone speak half-heartedly?
Li Sixu then looked at Liu Yunying who was waiting not far from the steps.
With Liu Yunying's ears, she naturally heard what Eunuch Gui and Li Sixu were saying while standing in the corridor. She started to run away, but when she met the threatening eyes of her little master, she had to stop obediently.
Li Sixu stretched out her hand towards her, and Liu Yunying, who wanted to hide like a quail, had no choice but to walk over and hold her hand.
"It's not good for children to be too smart!"
Being stared at by Li Sixu, Liu Yunying said dejectedly: "This old guy next to the Empress is really cunning. He is afraid that he might say something to the young master and make the Empress blame her, so he digs a hole for Yunying."
"He was nice. He didn't say anything and gave the little master a good deal."
After complaining to Eunuch Gui, Liu Yunying spoke aggrievedly under Li Sixu's gaze: "It's not that Yunying didn't want to say it, it's because Yunying was also threatened by that facial paralysis person. He warned Yunying that she dared to propose marriage to him. I told the young master what happened, and I skinned Yunying."
"My young master knows that no matter how much Yunying's skills improve, she is still slightly inferior to him, and she can't beat him..."
Liu Yunying was still chattering, but Li Sixu froze!
What?
Is Mr. Zuo Wei Shilang going to discuss marriage?
The news came unexpectedly. Li Sixu stood on the cobblestone path of the Imperial Garden and took a while to regain her composure.
She thought about what Eunuch Gui said, combined with what she heard from Liu Yunying, and keenly captured some information.
"Is Lord Zuo Wei's marriage proposal related to the Qushui River Drinking Banquet?"
After Liu Yunying talked about Li Linhuai's marriage proposal, she had been quietly observing her young master.
stunned!
What does it mean?
She wants to discuss marriage with a paralyzed face. Does the young master care or not?
Liu Yunying was still waiting for her mistress to express his opinion on Li Linhuai's marriage proposal, but her mistress was able to link Zuo Wei's marriage proposal with the Qushui River Drinking Banquet.
Sure enough, it is not good for children to be too smart.
It's no wonder that Li Linhuai, the paralyzed man, threatened her not to tell his young master about his marriage proposal.
Li Sixu hit the nail on the head!
Liu Yunying stopped pretending: "Prince Ning's Mansion is really insidious. The Lord of Ji'an County did something like that at the Qushui River Drinking Banquet, and was slapped in the face by His Majesty's order. She was locked up in Prince Ning's Mansion to recuperate, and she also rested for a few days. .”
"She is about the same age as Princess Mu, and has reached the age to discuss marriage. When this happened, Prince Ning's Mansion felt that the Lord of Ji'an County had lost the face of the palace, so he hurriedly negotiated a marriage for her."
Liu Yunying mocked: "Of all the noble families, which one is willing to marry a notorious county head? There were so many people at the Qushui River banquet that day, and no one in Prince Ning's palace dared to talk about anything in person. Ji'an was almost raped by a eunuch behind his back. Things have spread."
"The aristocratic family in the capital avoids the Lord of Ji'an County, so she has no way to find a good match for her."
"Then, there have been rumors for some reason recently that the person who caught the disheveled Lord of Ji'an County on the day of the Qushui River Drinking Banquet was actually not an eunuch, but Li Linhuai."
