"Master summoned? Which master?"
Hearing this, Hui Ming had such doubts, but he already had a vague guess in his heart.
In this palace, no one cares about how privately, on the bright side, there are only two people who can directly call the master without a prefix—
His Majesty of Gande Palace, Queen of Kunhe Palace.
Sure enough, as soon as Hui Ming's voice fell, Yuan Chengqiang clapped his hands abruptly: "Who else? We are the queen master in the Kunhe Palace!"
The Empress... Why did she suddenly summon her
Hui Ming felt a little uneasy in his heart, and asked again: "What did the maiden say?"
Yuan Chengqiang showed a somewhat dissatisfied look when he heard the words: "Let's be palace servants, the master summons, not to mention hurry up and hurry up, there are still people who ask questions like this, Aunt Song is too big. ."
Hui Ming frowned slightly, but she knew this Yuan Shaojian, relying on his relationship with the eunuch in charge of Kunhe Palace, and regardless of whether he was in the eyes of others, she always acted like the empress. Confidants claim to be themselves and act very arrogantly.
Hearing his yin and yang strange words at this moment, Hui Ming's face became more and more pale, and he just straightened his back, and replied lightly: "If this is the case, then please ask Yuan Gonggong to go out and wait for a while, this servant is too old. Even if the concubine's personal maid is summoned, she always needs to tell her master."
Speaking of which, Yuan Chengqiang is the young supervisor of Changxing Palace. The head of Changxing Palace is Concubine Kang, so his own master should also be Concubine Kang. Hearing Huiming's meaningless words, his expression changed. A change.
Hui Ming didn't even look at him. After speaking, he turned around and entered the main hall. Of course, going to report to Concubine Kang was one thing, but what was more important was that after she thought about it for a long time, she went to look for another place in the Changxing Palace. A familiar little inner supervisor asked him to look at the future, and counted that if she hadn't come back for an hour, he would go to Gande Palace to find Eunuch Su or Yuanbao and tell the story.
The little inner supervisor received the broken silver used for sending letters and arranging for them, and answered in one go. Only then did Hui Ming straighten the corners of his clothes and get up and leave the palace.
Outside the gate of Changxing Palace, besides Yuan Shaojian, there was also a maid with a serious face, who was said to be the big maid in front of the Empress.
When Huiming saw this, he never complained, but he followed silently all the way to the Kunhe Palace, entered from the west corner door, and went around to the gate of the apse.
The maid of the Kunhe Palace turned around on the steps, and lowered her head towards Huiming with a cold face: "I will report back to the Empress, you are waiting here."
Huiming's rules should be that this place is the main entrance of the apse, and there are often people of various colors and even concubines ordering wives to enter and leave. There are many people, so Huiming did not dare to neglect, and just found a place that was not in the way and waited respectfully.
But she never imagined that she would wait for nearly an hour.
I don't know if it was intentional or not. The place where the palace maid asked her to wait happened to be an air vent. There was no snow today, and Hui Ming was not wearing a cloak. It is accustomed to the general sinking of lead.
At this point, Hui Ming also knew in his heart that she was being troubled by the empress.
It's just that she is an ordinary palace maid, and now she is no longer even in front of the royal family. She herself has nothing to be taken care of by the Empress... Unless, it's for Eunuch Su
Hui Ming was puzzled, but the more she did, the more careful she became. As time passed, half of it disappeared from the sky in the future, and after the sky darkened, she took a slow breath and went forward to look for the belt. The palace maid she came over said calmly at this hour, if she didn't go back to the palace gate, she would not be able to catch the key to the palace gate, and if the empress was not free, she would come back tomorrow.
The big palace maid seemed to be waiting for her and did not give her a chance to escape. After hearing this, she immediately led her into the palace.
The next person was leaning on the wooden couch in the apse in a bad mood. Through the bead curtain, he couldn't see his face clearly, and he could only faintly see the extraordinarily rich phoenix crown on his head.
Hui Ming didn't dare to take a closer look, but after only one glance, he immediately knelt on his knees in a proper manner and greeted him with a big salute.
Hearing the words, the Queen's concubine straightened her body slightly, but before she had time to call, the maid next to her immediately "justly" went in and reported something, and the two immediately started talking. .
This is actually endless, Hui Ming frowned secretly in his heart, but estimating the time, presumably Yuanbao and Eunuch Su have already won the letter, and he is not worried, just lowered his eyes and waited.
Speaking of which, my legs were numb from standing outside the hall. When I first knelt down, it was relieved a lot, and I felt a little more comfortable. It hurts, the sky is getting dizzy, and there are small inner prisoners in the hall lighting up the lights one by one, even the patience of Hui Ming and the two worlds have begun to grit their teeth secretly.
It was at this time that the report that Huiming had been waiting for for a long time finally came from outside the hall—
Director Su asks to see you.
Hui Ming couldn't help bowing down just now, but at the moment Eunuch Su arrived, in order not to worry Eunuch Su, she took a sigh of relief, knelt up straight again, and looked on her face. It was also replaced by an ordinary look as if he had just kneeled for a while.
But Su Jin has been paying attention to Huiming for so many years, how could she be so easily deceived? With just a quick glance, he immediately saw Hui Ming's pale complexion.
Su Jin felt a pain in his heart, for a while, he couldn't even show respect and perfunctory towards his successor. "I don't know what the lady means? "Then he sat up straight with the help of the maid next to him, and the questioning of Eunuch Su was full of majesty: "Director Su is quite majestic. "
Su Jin frowned: "The villain dare not."
Even though he said so, Su Jin's subordinates were not slow at all, and he turned around to help Hui Ming on the ground.
Hui Ming was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment, looked up and saw Eunuch Su's gaze, but he didn't struggle. He really followed his strength and stood up slowly.
After seeing this scene through the bead curtain, he said something faintly: "Since Director Su knows that he is distressed and acts on weekdays, he should think twice before acting."
As soon as the words fell, Huiming, who was facing Eunuch Su, saw the sullen look on Eunuch Su's face flashing with his own eyes, turned around, but just lowered his head and respectfully said: "It's not early, If Niangniang doesn't order, the villain will rush to the palace gate to release the key."
After hearing the words, he coughed lightly, as if all the troubles just now, the dark waves did not exist, he said dignifiedly: "It's okay, it's just the sacrifices today, I heard from Shan'er, you did a good job. , this kind of credit, this palace should reward you well."
After saying that, he waved his hand, and the maid on the side stepped forward, as if he had already prepared, presented a pair of crystal clear red coral head and face jewelry, and sent it to Hui Ming.
Huiming glanced at Eunuch Su beside him, and leaned over to thank him.
Seeing this, the follower behind the curtain slowly leaned back again, and his voice was slightly relaxed: "No, as long as you are diligent and honest in the future, and you are good at work, this palace will naturally not treat you badly."
Of course, Hui Ming knew in his heart that he was actually speaking to Eunuch Su. Come to think of it, Eunuch Su did something to offend the Zhonggong and Prince Xin. The queen called her here today, but she just used her to beat Eunuch Su. That's it.
For this reason, Hui Ming didn't say anything. He just followed behind Eunuch Su and bowed, then took a few steps back and turned to leave the hall.
As soon as he left the Kunhe Palace, Su Jin stopped and sent Yuanbao to take the coral head back to work first, while he stood in front of Huiming and bent his knees to check her knees.
Hui Ming hurriedly took a step back and just smiled: "It's really time for my father-in-law to come, I just entered the hall not long ago."
After Su Jin heard this, she lowered her head as if she was more shameless, and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, today's incident is all because of being implicated by me."
However, Hui Ming did not want Eunuch Su to say such words, and he did not want him to affect his future plans because of today's events, so he hurriedly stopped him from saying this: "It's nothing, I have suffered for it because of fairness. There are many benefits to take care of, and it should be half-returned occasionally!"
Su Jin was stunned when he heard the words, then turned his eyes dodgingly, and asked in a low voice, "Does your leg still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt, but after kneeling for a while, it's not a big deal. Let's slow down on the road and wait until we go back!"
Although Huiming said so, how can Su Jin rest assured? The two walked extremely slowly for about ten steps in the dim palace hall, and he listened to the steps again and said in a low voice, "If not, can I help you?"
After hearing this sentence, Huiming's words, who were still talking about him not hurting at all, suddenly stopped.
Of course, her leg still hurts. When she was kneeling, it was only her knee that tingled. Now she walks away, and her knee is not very obvious, but the whole leg seems to be in pain everywhere, especially when it is strong. If someone can help It will naturally be much easier.
What's more, even if she really wasn't in great pain, Eunuch Su spoke up... How could she refuse
Hui Ming also bowed his head, and answered in a low voice with blushing cheeks. If it weren't for Su Jin's ears, he might not be able to hear it.
Seeing her answer, Su Jin bowed slightly and raised her forearm in front of her.
This is the way that the inmates in the palace serve the masters.
As soon as Huiming saw it, he frowned slightly and thought about it, but instead of grabbing his forearm, he took a step back and went straight into his arm. , then simply grabbed the other hand.
In this way, it seems to be a lot closer at once. In fact, it seems to be too close. Even Hui Ming, who took the initiative, feels that something is wrong, but he has already caught it, and it seems that it is not easy to let go, but Relying on the quietness of this palace road, I just kept my head down and didn't know what to do.
Not to mention Su Jin, the moment Hui Ming helped him up, he felt the weight and temperature coming from his side, and there was even a faint fragrance. The heart of self-blame was suffocated in an instant, followed by a blank space, and the next few steps, just relied on instinct to walk forward along Hui Ming's strength, and these arms, legs and feet were all Buddhas. It's not his own anymore!
After walking a hundred or ten steps in a daze like this, Su Jin's thoughts finally returned to his mind. He gritted his teeth, afraid that he would not be able to say anything if he delayed for a moment, very fast. Said the plan he had been thinking about for a long time: "In a few days, I will send you out of the palace."
Hui Ming's steps paused slightly, but his voice was still calm: "Then what?"
Su Jin opened his mouth and said in a harsh voice, "I, I have some savings over the years. After you left the palace, you and your parents went out to Beijing to hide for two years. After that, if you are used to living, you can settle down somewhere else. I want to come back and…”
"I thought that my father-in-law treated me with sincerity, and I have since returned!"
Hearing this, Hui Ming suddenly interrupted his words, she threw off his arms, it was clearly such a dim palace, but there seemed to be a trembling in her eyes. Guang: "It turns out that I was wrong, Eunuch Su, you never thought of staying with me for a long time?"
