She said: "I don't know, what does the empress want to ask the slaves?"
Nan Yan picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said: "The last time I came here, Mammy once said that you served Emperor Gao, so you met my uncle."
"Yes."
"Then, you are Emperor Gao's personal maid?"
Su Momo's eyes flickered slightly, before she said: "At first it was, but later it wasn't."
"Originally? Wasn't it later?"
"Originally, the slaves served by Emperor Gao's side, but after the imperial concubine Qin Guifei entered the palace, the slaves were assigned to serve in Yikun Palace."
"..."
"So, the servant girl is Qin Guifei's personal maid."
Nan Yan raised her eyebrows slightly.
This is not unexpected.
Judging from the fact that she gave some of Concubine Qin's belongings to Concubine Ning before, Nan Yan vaguely guessed that even if she was not someone who served Concubine Qin, she must have had contacts with Concubine Qin.
Sure enough.
Nan Yan smiled and asked, "Then, what kind of person is Qin Guifei?"
Su Momo glanced at her, and then said: "Your concubine... Qin Guifei is very humble. Although she comes from a famous family and is not a lady, she is open and generous, which many young ladies can't compare to."
Nan Yan nodded lightly.
She remembered what Concubine Ning once said, when Emperor Gao and Luo Xingwen jointly fought against the country, Qin Xixi played a big role in the middle.
To be able to achieve the union of the two major forces, this woman is not just as simple as being magnanimous.
You must also have courage and insight, and be as careful as dust.
To be able to do this is to be called a strange woman.
However, such a strange woman ended up in a deserted tomb on Xingluo Lake.
Nan Yan thought for a while, and said, "Since Mammy is the one serving Concubine Qin, do you know how she died later?"
Su Momo glanced at her: "Do you know she's dead?"
Nan Yandao: "I'm on Xingluo Lake, and I've seen her grave."
"oh… "
Su Momo nodded: "Concubine Ning, every year, I will go to pay homage to Concubine Qin."
After finishing speaking, she glanced at Nan Yan again, and then said: "Actually, this servant does not know how Qin Guifei passed away."
"You don't know? Aren't you her personal maid?"
"Although I am her personal maid, sometimes, I have no way to be by her side at all times."
It is true.
Just like Ran Xiaoyu is so loyal to him and so capable, he may not be able to appear by his side all the time.
What's more, Su Nanny is like this, she is not a practicing family like Ran Xiaoyu.
Nan Yan said: "Madam, what you mean is that when Concubine Qin passed away, you were not by her side?"
"Yes."
"Then when did she die?"
"She was in the second year of Emperor Gao's founding, not long after she was conferred the title of imperial concubine."
Nan Yan couldn't help being stunned for a moment.
So early
That noble concubine passed away early without spending much time in the harem.
"Then, where did she die? Was it in the palace?"
"Of course not. If she was in the palace, the servants would definitely be by her side."
Su Momo looked a little sad, and said: "She was sick and passed away when she followed Emperor Gao to the north and had the last negotiation with the envoy of the Kingdom of Tan."
"...!"
Nan Yan's heart skipped a beat.
Negotiate with the envoy of the country
She subconsciously thought of the painting Wu Yingqiu saw on the Golden Tower.
What should be presented is that negotiation.
But what I didn't expect was that Concubine Qin Gui also followed Emperor Gao.
Logically speaking, a concubine would not be involved in such a big event, but considering Qin Xixi's contribution to Emperor Gao and Luo Xingwen, her strength should not be being a husband and a child.
Rather, it is very diplomatic.
Therefore, during the negotiation, Emperor Gao would bring her by his side.
Unfortunately, she fell ill and passed away.
Nan Yan was silent for a while, then said: "After she passed away, she-"
"It was buried on Xingluo Lake."
Su Momo's expression became even more gloomy, and she said: "Although, the servants don't understand why Emperor Gao didn't build a mausoleum for the imperial concubine, she is the imperial concubine after all."
"..."
"However, she herself doesn't like being surrounded by these red walls."
"..."
"Probably, it might be a good thing for her to be buried where she was born."
"..."
Nanyan didn't expect that there was such a story back then.
For some reason, even though it was a long and distant story, when Nan Yan listened to it, her mood kept fluctuating.
There seems to be a little, a touch of sadness.
strangeness.
Although she is very sympathetic, other people's stories are other people's stories after all. She rarely gets caught up in other people's emotions, and is rarely affected by them.
After Su Nai finished speaking, she was quiet for a while, as if she was trying to calm down, then she raised her head and looked at her, and said, "Why did you want to ask about Qin Guifei all of a sudden?"
Nan Yan was silent for a while before saying: "My grandmother passed away a few days ago."
"Please grief."
"Well, before she died, she mentioned Concubine Qin several times."
"..."
"I don't know, is it because she is old with Concubine Qin, so I want to inquire. If there is anything unfinished, I want to do it, it can be regarded as a filial piety for grandma."
"Madam Si...?"
After Su Momo heard this, she thought for a while and said, "I do remember that Qin Guifei and Mrs. Si seem to be acquainted with each other. Sometimes during the conversation, Mrs. Si and Mrs. Bowang will also be mentioned. "
"Is it?"
"Yes."
"..."
"Concubine Qin Guifei lost her father since she was a child. It seems that she was taken care of by Mrs. Si for a period of time."
"So that's how it is."
"Before she passed away, that is, before she followed Emperor Gao to participate in the negotiation, she made a lot of clothes by herself, including summer clothes and winter clothes, and they were made for Mrs. Si."
"..."
"Thinking about it, I also regard the old lady as a half-mother."
Nan Yan was slightly moved.
I really didn't expect that there was such a past between Qin Xixi and Tong Yuhua.
It's no wonder that Tong Yuhua was sick and confused in the last period of his life, but he mentioned "the girl of the Qin family" several times.
Even towards Concubine Ning, she was very kind.
Thinking about it, it was also because of Qin Guifei's relationship.
It's a pity that the relationship between the two of them is so good, but Qin Ruolan and I had a quarrel that was almost torn apart. Thinking about it, I'm really ashamed.
It's all because of Zhu Feng.
Male beauty is a disaster!
Nan Yan couldn't help but smiled wryly.
She thought for a while, and then asked: "Mommy, how much do you know about Concubine Ning and the emperor's past?"
