With Duguqing's reminder, Chu Qingyan quickly regained her senses and stood with her head lowered slightly.
Although the voice sounded like the blue-clothed woman who fought her tit-for-tat at the auction, it had nothing to do with her whether she was or not. She had a heavy responsibility and couldn't make any mistakes.
"What are you doing?" the person who was called Ning County Lord in front asked.
"County Ning, the Queen Mother wants to see the new fabric, and the servants are about to send it over." The palace maid replied respectfully immediately.
"Well, then you can go, this county master will not delay your work." Ning county master waved his hand and let them go.
The group continued on.
"Wait—" Ning County Lord suddenly said, "The man walking behind with the moon blue cloth stopped."
Chu Qingyan groaned in her heart, but she still stopped without changing her face, she lowered her head slightly, and raised the fabric in her hand slightly.
In the Lanzhuang that day, they both covered their faces, and their faces were probably invisible. Chu Qingyan believed that as long as she disguised well, she would not be recognized today.
The gentle footsteps approached, and reached out to touch the cloth in her hand, "The color of the cloth is good, and I will send a few to my house tomorrow, I want to see."
Chu Qingyan felt relieved when she heard that she was only looking at the cloth. Through the cloth, she scrutinized the person standing beside her without a trace. She was wearing an aqua blue pomegranate skirt, covered with a shawl of the same color. Embroidered with blue balsam at the place, the figure is slender and weak, wearing a jade bracelet on the wrist, the long black hair is combed into a snake bun, black and bright, and a golden Qingyunyang is inserted on the top. Blessed hairpin, Pingting curled up, beautiful flowers.
With her voice, her figure, and the way she walked, Chu Qingyan felt that she would not admit it wrong.
If she hadn't seen her saucy and arrogance at the auction before, Chu Qingyan would have been deceived by this person's gentle and virtuous appearance.
Although the Ning County Lord had a smile on his lips, the smile in those apricot eyes did not reach the bottom of his eyes.
People like this can be seen in particular, they are scheming and shrewd.
It was like this at the age of fourteen or five, so what would happen in a few years
As soon as the voice fell, the palace maid and the Yi family steward hurriedly responded.
So Chu Qingyan and the others continued to move forward.
Jiang Yutong took a few steps, and suddenly frowned, she stopped to look back, why did that little girl feel familiar
"The princess?" The palace maid by her side asked in a low voice when she saw that she was standing still.
Jiang Yutong regained his senses and continued to walk, "It's okay, go back to the house!"
She just went to see Jiang Yunyao today, and sure enough, as she thought, Jiang Yunyao didn't have a good life for a few days.
Thinking of this, her footsteps could not help but become brisk.
Chu Qingyan and Duguqing followed the crowd to the gate of Qianyu Palace, but the Yi family and others were stopped.
I saw an elderly nanny standing at the gate of the palace glanced at the people standing under the steps, and after asking the reason, she said to everyone, "The steward goes in, and the rest of the people stay outside the palace and wait."
"Yes." Everyone agreed.
Duguqing watched as the cloth in her hand was taken over by the palace maid, then turned to Chu Qingyan and bit her ear in a low voice, "This palace's security is really too strict, you see—"
Chu Qingyan followed Duguqing's line of sight, and saw that the Qianyu Palace was surrounded by palace guards, with long spears standing, majestic and unyielding, she nodded secretly, "Qianyu Palace is the queen's bedroom, and it is normal to have more embankments. of."
Duguqing also nodded, "Jiang Kingdom's royal family has only one queen, one princess and two princes, unlike other countries where concubines and concubines are in groups, so there is no need for so many guards in the palace, and they all send guards on the inner three floors and the outer three floors. Not too much."
Chu Qingyan felt that what she said was reasonable, but at this time she was more concerned about how to understand the situation while standing here? How to get the news
Suddenly Duguqing winked at her, and Chu Qingyan immediately understood. She squatted down while clutching her stomach, while Duguqing held her up with an exaggerated expression, "Xiaoyan, what's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?"
"I, my stomach hurts—" Chu Qingyan was full of emotion, as if he was about to take it.
Duguqing laughed wildly in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it. She said a few words again and again, "What should I do? This is the palace!"
"I want to go to the toilet—" Chu Qingyan's expression seemed to be very uncomfortable.
Duguqing hurriedly asked the maid next to her, "Sister, do you know where there are toilets, my little sister is not feeling well."
This palace maid is from Qianyu Palace. She saw Chu Qingyan's painful appearance just now, and without thinking much, she said, "Please come with me."
Duguqing thanked her repeatedly, supported Chu Qingyan and followed her.
At this moment, Chu Qingyan and Duguqing clapped their hands quietly.
Taking advantage of this walk, Duguqing chatted with the palace maid.
"This elder sister, you are such a nice person. If it weren't for you, my little sister would be embarrassed." Duguqing sighed.
The palace maid is obviously not a dull temperament. She smiled when she heard the words, "It's not in the way, it's just a little effort. Our imperial concubine always educates us, don't do evil for small things, and don't do good things for small things."
"Our Empress is really a bodhisattva. Unfortunately, I haven't been fortunate enough to see her in the palace this time, but I am very honored to be so close to the Empress." Duguqing's eyes lit up, as if she really worshipped her very much. .
This palace maid seems to be a loyal fan of Queen Jiang Guo. After Duguqing expressed her admiration, she also let go of her temper and chatted with Duguqing. Through chatting, they learned that this palace maid was called Jingliu and served Queen Jiang Guo. wash.
Chu Qingyan had to admire Duguqing's powerful ability to collect information. She only had to be responsible for pretending to be sick, and she could learn some interesting things about Empress Jiang Guo on weekdays.
After about a cup of tea, I went to a remote toilet place.
After Duguqing and Chu Qingyan looked at each other, they said to Jingliu, "Sister, you go to work first, I'll wait for Sister Xiaoyan, we will go back later."
As soon as the words fell, Jingliu thought about what she had to do later, and after Duguqing reassured that she would not get lost, she left in a hurry.
Chu Qingyan walked out of the thatched hut, "Is someone gone?"
"Let's go, I found that this palace maid is quite simple." Duguqing returned to her usual cunning appearance and said with a smile.
"Maybe what kind of master, what kind of slaves to train!" Chu Qingyan said lightly, there is no concubine in this harem, there is no competition for favor, so there is no calculation, Queen Jiang Guo only needs to worry about her husband and children, and follow her People don't have that much thought.
"You go to find out the news first, I'll be watching here, you'll come back soon." Duguqing waved to her.
Chu Qingyan nodded, "The steward of the Yi family said that he will go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs later, and I will come back early."
After she finished speaking, she looked for a direction to leave.
