Chapter 880
: Leaving Xue Mei
The dust-washing banquet held by Xue Mei in the palace. Before the banquet started, Xue Mei watched a good show and was in a very happy mood.
"My cousin, let alone being the queen, even if she is regent, it's fine." Xue Mei couldn't help but feel a little proud when she thought of this.
Think about the two little girls who hid in Huining Garden and cried in the Yongning Marquis' Mansion - one was replaced by a soul. In the eyes of those who care about her, she is now living a prosperous life; the other has gone from the daughter of a small Beijing official to the world of motherhood, and is sure to win in this palace.
My cousin has few methods and is not that kind of offensive, but her attack points are particularly accurate.
Just like when she deals with the emperor, she makes the emperor superstitious that having her will have good luck; when she deals with Qi Siran, she quietly wins over her son, allowing Qi Siran to bear the pain of her skin.
When Xue Mei sighed when she thought they were bullied by Xue Yutan, she felt dark.
Time flies, and before you know it, everyone has changed so much that you can't imagine.
A palace maid found Xue Mei: "Princess, please come here, Chunyong Palace."
I guess the emperor and empress will not be able to finish it for a while, so I will definitely not invite Xue Mei back again, so I have to let her go to Chunyong Palace first.
Xue Mei walked slowly.
When she arrived, Chunyong Hall had already sat half of the people in the hall.
The entire Chunyong Hall is very large, with a soft red carpet in the middle and seats on both sides.
The women's seats were on the left, and about twenty small tables were placed; the men's seats were much larger, and about fifty small tables were placed.
It is said that it is to welcome Xue Mei, but the person who treats the guests is the emperor, so there are still more male guests than female guests.
The eunuch in charge knew Xue Mei and respectfully invited her to the first seat under the chief.
It was quiet all around and everyone was watching her.
Xue Mei looked back and saw many familiar faces, including Xue Mei's second aunt, who is now a third-rank lady; and Xue Mei's aunt, who is now a first-rank foreign wife, Mrs. Zhenguo.
In addition, there are several princesses, whom Xue Mei looked familiar.
Princess Xin Xiao and Princess Longqing are also among them.
Although everyone laughed, they did not stand up and took the initiative to greet Xue Mei.
Only Xue Mei's aunt, Mrs. Zhenguo.
Mrs. Zhenguo came over, wondering whether she was reminded by the Empress or to show her current power, and said, "Mei'er, I heard that today I am using the identity of a princess in Chu. Is this true or false?"
Xue Mei: "..."
There is a reason why she doesn't like this aunt very much. Her aunt took the initiative to hand her a knife to others, for fear that others would not have an excuse to sarcastically mock Xue Mei.
Xue Mei just smiled.
Over there, Princess Longqing responded: "The princess is indeed a good skill..."
Xue Mei stood up directly.
She stood in a hurry, as if she was looking for revenge, which caused Princess Longqing to freeze and almost bit her tongue.
Xue Mei did not seek revenge or trouble Princess Longqing. She just smiled at her aunt: "This hall is too boring, I'll go out for some breath."
She actually threw her sleeves away.
Princess Longqing thought about the words and humiliated Xue Mei, so she was very loud. Unexpectedly, her voice was forced to stop halfway. Now that Xue Mei has left the seat, she is stuck here without going up or down, which is extremely embarrassing.
Everyone whispered.
Princess Longqing's face was red and white, and she almost broke her nails with anger.
Xue Mei went out for a moment.
When she came in again, she was with General Wang Xiao Jingcheng, and everyone in the hall stood up to greet her.
It was only after she and Xiao Jingcheng settled down that the emperor and his wife arrived late.
The VIP for this banquet was Xue Mei.
After the toast, the emperor praised Xue Mei and praised her for her contribution to the country. Xue Mei made an important contribution to the alliance between Liang and Chu. She was the bridge between them.
Everyone toasted Xue Meiyaoyao.
After the banquet, Xue Mei said a few words to the Empress, and she and Xiao Jingcheng left the palace.
Xiao Jingcheng asked her: "What did you say to the queen?"
"I watched a good show with her before. I asked her if there were any hidden dangers, but she said no." Xue Mei said.
Xiao Jingcheng gently touched her hair.
After a moment of silence, Xiao Jingcheng suddenly said to Xue Mei: "There is something I want to bother you very much. But this cold winter is not very convenient."
"you say."
"The prince used to be sick in Jinzhou. The imperial doctor I sent over said it was untreated. But he was only in his twenties this year, so why couldn't it be cured? Can you go see him?" Xiao Jingcheng asked.
Xue Mei: "Okay, no problem."
Xiao Jingcheng: "I have something to do here, so I won't accompany you. You shouldn't be afraid with Jinping and the secret guards, right?"
Xue Mei smiled: "When have I been afraid?"
Xiao Jingcheng nodded.
The next day, the people from the General's Mansion came over and sent Xue Mei to Jinzhou to see the Prince Xian.
Xue Mei set out on the road.
Along the way, she always felt something was wrong.
Jinzhou is very close to the capital, and the carriage is slow and it will arrive in eight hours.
When Xue Mei arrived in Jinzhou, the prince was not at home.
His servant said, "The prince is so sick that he goes to worship Buddha."
Xue Mei: "..."
She felt something was wrong at this time.
Although he is anxious to seek medical treatment, how can the patient seek medical treatment by himself?
She said to Jinping: "The day before yesterday, the prince suddenly mentioned this matter and asked me to come to Jinzhou. Before that, I have been back to Kyoto for half a month, and he has never said it. How could he delay the matter of life and not tell me?"
Jinping: "Yes, I still can't see patients when I arrive in Jinzhou..."
"We're fooled." Xue Mei said sternly, "Hurry up, prepare to return to Beijing!"
Xue Mei had a very bad premonition.
She didn't know where this premonition came from, but she suddenly grabbed her heart and made her feel that something was going to happen to Xiao Jingcheng.
He deliberately sent her away!
When she set out to Jinzhou, Xiao Jingcheng did not send her. At that time, Xue Mei felt uncomfortable. Then she reflected on herself and felt like a girl who had just fallen in love. When she was in love, she asked her boyfriend to be a cow and horse, and she had to do everything meticulously.
Everyone is adults, and Xiao Jingcheng is so busy, so it is normal not to give it to him.
Until now.
She couldn't see the patient, and realized that it was not her pretentiousness, but Xiao Jingcheng's abnormality.
According to his personality and habits, he would definitely send Xue Mei to Jinzhou, and would even come with her.
I don't know what happened, Xue Mei and Jinping rode horses all the way, rushing back with a fast horse.
In the north of October, the weather was cold and the first snow had just fallen. I rode on the horse's back and the cold wind was like a knife. Xue Mei made a veil with a scarf and barely blocked it, but her face still cracked.
In the evening, she rushed back to the capital and drove her horse to the General's Mansion regardless of everything.
It's indeed a bit unusual in the palace.
Xue Mei turned over and dismounted, and the guards stopped her: "Princess, the princess is not in the mansion, so you might as well go back and rest first."
Xue Mei: "Stop talking, don't force me to slap you! Let me in, you don't have to take responsibility for this matter, otherwise I won't spare you."
Guard: "..."
