Chapter 206 Feifeng Palace
Princess Ruiqing patted her hand, "Anyway, I can only tell you that people are still alive, so you can wait with peace of mind. It should be no problem to live."
After hearing this, Jinning knew that his condition must be unoptimistic. She controlled her emotions and asked as calmly as possible: "How is his condition now?"
"I don't know, but I'm still alive." Princess Ruiqing said.
Just be alive, no matter what he becomes, just be alive.
Jinning slowly turned around and walked forward, but his mood was already in chaos.
He is a natural general, and living is not the same as being able to go to the battlefield in the future. He may not be able to stand up in the future, or have his hands and feet broken, or other...
Many possibilities kept popping up in Jinning's mind. She tried her best to think about it easily. Could it be optimistic? No, if it weren't serious, he would have been back long ago.
The master had said before that the Regent of Qingtian had gone. It should be the news that the Regent of Qingtian had been sent back. Is there any way to save him?
Empress Dowager Tong lives in Zizhu Hall, and Princess Ruiqing takes Jinning to pay tribute to Empress Dowager Tong first.
Jinning calmed down and followed the princess in.
People from Zizhu Palace came and went, and palace maids and eunuchs were constantly passing by, holding tea or pastries in their hands, which showed that guests had arrived first in the hall.
Up the stone steps, a gray-haired nanny greeted him with a smile, greeted Jun first, and then gave Jin Ning a blessing, "Hello, county lord!"
Jin Ning replied, "Mum is polite." But she was secretly wondering in her heart that she had never been to Zizhu Palace, why did this nanny know her?
The nanny smiled and said to Princess Ruiqing, "The princess is here. The empress dowager has been thinking about you several times. She said that if you don't come, you have to ask someone out to invite him."
Princess Ruiqing smiled and said, "How dare you bother the Empress Dowager to ask someone to invite me? I got up early, but my father coughed a few times. My mother was worried, so she asked me to prescribe a medicine, which was delayed."
"Is the Marquis okay?" asked the nanny with concern.
"It's okay, it's dry and my throat is uncomfortable, and my mother is just worried."
The nanny smiled and said, "Mrs. Jingguo really cares about the marquis."
While speaking, he entered the hall. Sure enough, several luxurious ladies sat in the hall, as well as two beautiful girls with cramped expressions. The girls were standing beside their mothers.
On the carved mahogany official hat chair in the center was an old woman wearing crimson purple dress with phoenix-embroidered phoenix pattern embroidered with gold thread bat patterns from the neckline.
Her hair was gray, but she combed her clothes and tied them into a bun, wearing a purple gold phoenix bead crown, and a string of sandalwood Buddhist beads hung around her neck, which were carved with scriptures.
The Empress Dowager had dark skin and old spots on her eyes and cheekbones, and she could not find the beauty she had before.
However, I heard that when Empress Dowager Tong was young, her appearance was also very rough.
Jinning did not dare to look at it, so he took a quick look and knelt down and asked, "My daughter Chen Jinning met the Empress Dowager, I wish the Empress Dowager a good life and prosperity."
"You are Chen Jinning?" The Empress Dowager's voice was a little hoarse.
"When the Empress Dowager returns to the Queen Mother, my daughter is Chen Jinning." Jinning said respectfully.
"Raise your head and show it to the Ai family." Empress Dowager Tong's voice was very majestic.
Jinning slowly raised his head and looked at the Empress Dowager, but lowered his eyes and did not look at the Empress Dowager.
Empress Dowager Tong looked at it carefully, nodded slightly, and a smile appeared on her face, "Well, she looks 70% or 80% like your mother."
Princess Ruiqing smiled and said, "Empress Dowager, how long has Jinning been kneeling? Why haven't you told her to get up? The first time I met, don't make things too difficult for other girls."
Queen Mother Tong laughed, "You girl, you have not yet married into the Chen family, so you will help your future sister-in-law. Okay, the Ai family will not be difficult for your sister-in-law, Jin Ning gets up."
The ladies present laughed.
After thanking him, Jinning stood up and glanced at Princess Ruiqing quickly. She thought she would feel embarrassed, but she didn't know that her face changed slightly, and she even chuckled.
This is a strange man, Jin Ning thought to himself.
Because many people had not arrived yet and the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet had not officially begun, under the greeting of the palace maids, Jinning and Princess Ruiqing left the hall. Princess Ruiqing said, "You go and have a walk here first, I'll pay my respects to the mother and queen."
Jinning really wanted to follow him, but remembered that his master had other arrangements and he was going to give advice. If the Empress Dowager was unhappy, she would implicate Princess Ruiqing, and she would not harm Princess.
"Okay, go, I'll take a look at the flowers here."
Princess Ruiqing nodded, took two steps, and looked back at her, "Do you like watching flowers?"
"I like it, I grew up in the farm, and of course I like flowers and plants." Jinning smiled.
Princess Ruiqing said, "You go to the palace of the mother Queen Mother Queen Mother. There are many precious flowers in her palace, but you can just watch flowers outside, but the mother Queen Mother Queen Mother doesn't like to meet strangers."
Jinning hesitated for a moment, "Or, I'll still not go."
"Let's go!"
After Princess Ruiqing finished speaking, she turned around and left.
Jinning hesitated for a moment, but he still followed him.
Queen Mother Long lives in Feifeng Hall now, and is a little far away from Zizhu Hall. The two of them are not fast enough and they have been about a stick of incense before they can get there.
Outside the Feifeng Hall, there is a black plaque, and the three big characters Feifeng Hall are engraved with dragons and phoenixes. On the vermilion gate, brass nails are arranged neatly, making it very imposing.
Outside the Feifeng Palace, there were no palace maids and eunuchs. After crossing the threshold, they saw a kind-looking aunt wearing gray clothes coming over.
Jin Ning took a quick look and thought that this person was Aunt Jin Ru, who Madam Qian mentioned.
Sure enough, Princess Ruiqing smiled and said, "Aunt Jin Ru, I haven't seen you for a while, why do you feel much more refreshed?"
"The princess's mouth is like a filling of honey, which makes people feel so happy." Aunt Jin Ru smiled and said, "Go in quickly, the Empress Dowager is waiting for you."
"Well, go right away, aunt, this is the lord of Ning'an County. Please take her around in the yard."
Aunt Jinru looked at Jinning with a gentle smile, "It turns out that it is the county lord, I'm disrespectful."
Jin Ning was blessed, "I've seen my aunt."
After Princess Ruiqing entered, Aunt Jinru took Jinning to the yard.
Princess Ruiqing was right. The mother and Empress Dowager did have many strange flowers in the yard, which looked very precious, because although Jinning grew up in the farm, she had never seen so many varieties of flowers before.
But her mind was not on the strange flowers and flowers, but on how to talk to Aunt Jinru so that she could recommend herself to meet the Empress Dowager.
"How is Madam Qian?"
Jinning couldn't find the topic, but Aunt Jin Ru asked her.
