Chapter 203

This year, however, there are more female officials of the right age in the palace than in previous years. Many of them have found a suitable family, but Liu has not been able to find a suitable one. Therefore, she begged for the grace of the master son and went out of the palace ahead of time to find a good family for herself. However, because she is upright, does not hold a high position in the palace, and is not likely to flatter and flatter, so she has to pay more attention to it He will stay in the jade mansion, which is not a prominent family.

Who would have expected that in a few months' time, the jade mansion would be like this. The female officer Liu wanted to find another family, but she could not find it in a short time and a half.

Seeing that she has reached the age of releasing the palace, she can't stay for many days even if she goes back to the palace. However, she has no idea where to go in the future. Female official Liu is worried and worried, but there is no other way. She can only stay in the jade Mansion for the time being.

Because she was not a servant of the jade mansion, the housekeeper dismissed all the unnecessary servants the day before yesterday, but she didn't know how to send the female officer Liu. Anyway, there are many vacant courtyards in the jade mansion, so the housekeeper asked Liu nuguan to stay here for a while, and then make plans after finding a place to settle down.

Liu nuguan's eyes drooped slightly, and she said these things in a flat tone, as if she were talking about irrelevant people. But Yu Linglong could detect a trace of loneliness in her expression from the calm she tried to cover up.

Yes, Liu nuguan is over forty years old, but she is still alone. She has lived in the imperial palace for most of her life. It is not easy to find a way to rely on her.

After listening to Liu's words, Yu Linglong pondered for a long time and said, "would you like to go with me to Xu Wangfu?"

Female officer Liu raised her eyes in surprise and looked at Yu Linglong. She didn't seem to believe her ears: "miss four, what do you say?"

Jade Linglong light smile, said: "my side is lack of a person who knows the rules, if you are willing, follow me later."

Although Liu was a bit stubborn, she was a strict person. Yu Linglong vaguely felt that if she arrived at Xu Wang's mansion in the future, she still needed such a person to help her.

King Xu's mansion is no better than the jade mansion. After she married in the past, she was no longer a common lady in the jade mansion, but a dignified princess. In the future, she would have to deal with people in the palace. At that time, it would not be possible to solve the problem with violence. It would be good for her to have a knowledgeable person around her.

Liu's face was full of surprise and disbelief. She quickly stood up and saluted and said, "miss four, I It would be a great blessing if I could serve you

No one knows that Miss Yu Si will be married to King Xu's mansion in a few days to be the Empress Dowager of the imperial concubine. She is a small female official. If she can serve the princess, she can't ask for a good job.

Yu Linglong nodded and said to Hemerocallis and linger, "later, you will call her mother Liu."

Hemerocallis, knowing her, went up to her and said with a smile, "mother Liu, please give me more advice later."

During this period of time, mother Liu was used to meeting high and low, and also tempered a lot of temperament. Now, seeing Hemerocallis so polite, she said, "no, I'm too polite."

Jade Linglong said: "you go back to pack things, move here today, or have a look after each other, you come back in the evening, I have something to ask you."

In the evening, when the lamp was on, mother Liu was sure to come. At the moment, she had changed into a new blue satin double breasted jacket. She was much more energetic. When she entered the room, she saluted Yu Linglong: "miss four."

Yu Linglong sent all the irrelevant people out, and asked linger to move a small machine for mother Liu, and told her to sit down. Then she cut to the main topic: "I'll tell you the truth. In a few days, I'll go to King Xu's residence, but many things are still unclear. You are an old man in the palace. There are some things I want to ask you."

Mother Liu quickly stood up and said respectfully, "miss four, the maid must know everything and say everything."

It's so easy to find a good master. She naturally takes the opportunity to show her loyalty.

Yu Linglong thought about it and said, "King Xu What kind of man is he

She always felt that Xu Wang was not a simple character. There must be a very important reason for him to hide himself so deeply. However, she could not solve his doubts, which made her feel uneasy. She is about to become Princess Xu. From then on, at least on the surface, she will share weal and woe with him. It is better for him to inquire about the details as soon as possible.

However, mother Liu misunderstood her meaning and thought that she wanted to take the opportunity to know her future husband-in-law. It was human nature to think about this. She said in detail: "the prince is the youngest son of the Emperor today, ranking ninth, which is the work of imperial concubine Ling. The emperor used to love Ling Guifei very much. Later, Ling Guifei was dying of an epidemic. Despite the dragon's body, the emperor had to go to see her in person. Finally, the empress admonished her with death and stopped her... "

Don't know why, Yu Linglong suddenly remembered that day of the mid Yuan Festival, Xu Wang put the small river lamp into the water.

The dim light lit up his hazy face, and in his deep voice, with a little sadness, he whispered, "I am for my mother's concubine."At that time, she didn't know and didn't seriously think about it. There were so many secrets hidden in his heart. His mother's wife was one of them.

Liu's mother continued to say, drawing back some of her wandering thoughts When Ling Guifei died, the prince was only seven years old. Originally, the Empress Dowager meant to take the prince to Cihe palace, but then something happened -- "

Mother Liu suddenly stopped and looked up at Yu Linglong.

Under the candlelight, Yu Linglong's face looks like hibiscus and her eyebrows are like new cuts. She looks at her with a pair of Black Agate eyes, obviously listening attentively.

Mother Liu stopped for a moment and whispered, but she seemed to turn to another topic: "as you know, fourth miss, we are facing Shangyuan in the north and east of Chu. We have been bullied by Shangyuan in recent years. In the 21st year of Tianyou, Shangyuan sent envoys to ask Dongchu to surrender and threatened to send troops to attack Dongchu if the emperor refused to agree. The emperor was furious when he heard the words. He knew that he would not be defeated, but he would not bow down to submit himself. Seeing that the situation was in danger, the empress came up with a solution, suggesting that the emperor send a prince to Shangyuan as a proton in exchange for the trust of Shangyuan and the peace of Eastern Chu... "

Although she guessed what Liu's mother wanted to say, Yu Linglong was still in a deep heart.

Sure enough, mother Liu continued: "the prince sent is today's Royal Highness King Xu."

Almost uncontrollable, Yu Linglong's fingers were slightly tight and squeezed into a fist in the sleeve.

She could not imagine that a seven-year-old child would be sent to the enemy's country as a hostage and be subjected to white eyes and bullying. She could not imagine how hard he lived in a foreign country and spent a lonely childhood.
