Chapter 379 She is called Mei Niang
Chapter 379 Her name is Mei Niang
When Wang Ping'an saw them leaving, he felt a little relieved. He felt that the two of them had a bit similar tempers, and they were both good at seizing opportunities.
Needless to say, the palace maid is, as long as you have the chance, you must catch the kind of person in your hand. Whether you can catch it is another matter. Planning is up to people and success is in heaven, but this spirit is rare.
Xu Jingzong was the same. He saw the opportunity. He didn't care whether the opportunity was good or not, and then he grabbed it first. Just like running to Xitai in the middle of the night, he had no idea why Wang Ping'an was here at night, but he felt that this might be an opportunity, so no matter how hard he was, he came immediately!
When you have the opportunity, you would rather catch it by mistake than let it go!
Wang Ping'an leaned his hand closer to the small copper furnace and thought to himself: "These two people are so quick-witted, but neither of them is appreciated by the emperor. But a fool like Sister Wu can become the queen, which is simply unreasonable! Well, there are so many things that are unreasonable in this world, and this is not bad!"
After thinking for a while, he lay down with his clothes, intending to glar for a while.
But as soon as he lay down, footsteps came from outside. The palace maid came back. She stood outside the house, knocked on the door gently, and asked, "Mr. Wang, are you lying down?"
Wang Ping'an did not sit up and snored loudly, indicating that he was asleep and did not disturb him again.
The palace maid heard the snoring but refused to leave. Her voice rose slightly and said, "Mr. Wang and Prince were anxious to find a stove for Lord Xu just now. He left in a hurry and forgot to get the charcoal bucket. Can I come in and get it?"
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "Forgot to take it? Then let's go to the cold. Lord Xu is thick in skin and flesh, and he is not afraid of being frozen!" He still refused to get up, and his snoring was even louder.
Seeing that Wang Ping'an ignored him, the palace maid said again: "Mr. Wang, be careful when sleeping. There are many mice in Xitai. Be careful that they bit you in the middle of the night. I have a way. I want to tell you that if you sleep, I won't say it!"
Wang Ping'an cursed inwardly, I can't remember this kind of thing! He sat up and said, "I was asleep, but I woke me up by you. Come in and get the bucket!"
As soon as the door of the house opened, the palace maid walked in quietly, and lifted the charcoal bucket into the house. She said, "Mr. Wang, the best way to deal with mice is..." She suddenly started to cough, and it seemed that she was intentional, just waiting for Wang Ping'an to ask.
Then ask, Wang Ping'an was very disliked by the mouse. He asked, "What is the best way?"
The palace maid suddenly showed a naughty look and smiled, "The best way is to... find a cat, both male and female!" After that, she picked up the charcoal bucket and left, and closed the door!
Wang Ping said safely and couldn't help laughing. This palace maid is quite interesting. If he was a person from this era and did not have the explosive amount of knowledge like later generations, but was like a figure in the early Tang Dynasty, and only lived in a relatively closed social circle and had never seen too many people and things, then this palace maid would be quite liked by him, and maybe she would be entangled with it!
Wang Ping'an lay down again, but he couldn't help but feel a little worried. Could it be that there are really many mice in Xitai? I didn't know last night, so I could sleep, but I knew it tonight, and it would be difficult to fall asleep again. I couldn't help but prick up my ears to listen!
Not long after a while, footsteps came from outside. It was Xu Jingzong's. Wang Ping'an was so annoying. It was endless. Could it be that he also knew that there were many rats in Xitai, so he couldn't sleep and wanted to chat with me?
Xu Jingzong came outside the door, knocked on the door gently, and said, "Mr. Wang, are you asleep?" The palace maid probably left. He was fine when he stayed, so he came to find Wang Ping'an to grind his teeth.
Wang Ping'an had no choice but to sit up again. Anyway, he couldn't sleep, so he should deal with it. He couldn't lose face. This Lord Xu was not broad-minded. It was nothing to offend a gentleman. If he offended such a villain, there would be endless troubles. He said, "Not yet, Lord Xu invites you in!"
Xu Jingzong pushed the door and smiled and said, "Why are you not sleeping yet? But you have something to worry about. Come and tell me!"
Wang Ping'an laughed dryly. He must have thought that a person of my age could not hide his words in his stomach. Once he talked to me, I would lose more words and he would be able to get some valuable news!
He smiled and said, "Where is it? I'm already asleep, but I was woken up by the palace maid, and I can't fall asleep again. Lord Xu, said, "Is that palace maid angry? Isn't it worth it at all!" He added to his heart, you have no eyesight, either!
Xu Jingzong came to him, sat down, and said, "That's not the case, that little woman is very jealous, I don't like her!" Following Wang Ping'an's words, he said, but then said, "But to be honest, there are dragons and phoenixes hidden in the palace here. Let's not talk about the hidden dragons. That's a taboo thing, but this phoenix..."
He laughed twice and said with a dirty look on his face: "Tonight, I can really be considered a phoenix. I saw two phoenixes together!"
Wang Ping'an said, pretending to be surprised, looked up at the window, and said, "A phoenix flew over in the middle of the night? Is the phoenix a man's or the phoenix a man's? I always can't figure it out!"
Xu Jingzong twitched the corner of his mouth and thought to himself: "You are so stupid! You want to drive me away, right? I still don't leave. I won't talk from you. Humph, don't you want to sleep tonight!"
Xu Jingzong said: "You might as well consider the phoenix as the mother, the male or the female. What's the relationship? Prince, guess whose descendant is the little woman who just came?"
Wang Ping'an thought for a while and said solemnly: "Whose descendant is she? Well, if I guess correctly, she must be the descendant of her ancestors!"
Xu Jingzong uh, you guessed it very accurately, you were not wrong at all! He patted his hands and smiled and said, "The prince is the prince. No matter what, as long as you ask you to guess, you will definitely guess. Isn't she the descendant of her ancestors? This little woman is actually the descendant of the former prime minister of the Sui Dynasty, and her father is also a founding hero of this dynasty!"
Wang Ping'an smiled and thought to himself: "After the former prime minister of Sui Dynasty? Is it amazing? I also have a close relationship with Emperor Yang of Sui, and by the way, I have some relationship with the current emperor!"
He nodded and said, "He actually came from a famous family, but she is not young anymore, why is she just a palace maid?"
Xu Jingzong exclaimed and said, "She was not a palace maid before, but a very favored talented person, a fifth-rank concubine. But I don't know why she lost her favor..."
Speaking of this, he suddenly became thoughtful, his eyes kept turning, not knowing what he was trying to make.
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "The palace maid has also been a talented person. It seems that there are quite a lot of talented people in this palace. If you see any one of them, it is a talented person. It's too valuable!"
After waiting for a while, Xu Jingzong still didn't say anything. Wang Ping'an had to ask: "Didn't you ask her why she lost her favor?"
Xu Jingzong said, "For the first time we met, she was a palace maid again. I am a foreign minister, so how could I find out about those things!" He paused and said strangely: "Mr. Prince, do you think this is a bit strange. A talented man who was once favored was stripped of his title and became a palace maid, but he could still serve in the Ganlu Palace and be trusted by General Shi. He sent her here to help you. According to common sense, this is unlikely!"
Wang Ping'an nodded and said, "It's a bit strange. The concubine who lost her favor should not be able to see the emperor. How could she serve in the Ganlu Palace? Otherwise, Lord Xu, please go back and think about it carefully. When you figure it out, let me tell me?"
Xu Jingzong nodded, stood up, and wanted to go out. Suddenly, he had reacted and sat down again, saying, "Mr. Wang, you are driving me away! If you say it, I will leave now!"
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "You are so thick-skinned. If you say that, how could I drive you away again!" He hurriedly said: "No, I absolutely have no intention. We are in a good mood. How can I... Even if I don't, I can't drive you away. Lord Xu, you are too sensitive and misunderstood me. This is not good, this is not good!" He darkened his face and pretended to be angry!
Xu Jingzong smiled and said, "I think so too. The prince and I hit it off at first sight. Good friend, how can I drive me away? It's not enough to have a long talk!"
Wang Ping'an had no choice but to say, "This palace maid is really strange. For some reason, she, a person who fell out of favor, can still stay in the Ganlu Palace and is so trusted by General Shi."
Xu Jingzong whispered: "What do you think of Mr. Shi like this? Are you very scheming? His eyes are accurate!"
"Well, it's not bad. Manager Shi Da's vision is very accurate." Wang Ping'an said as he followed his words. Chatting is just a free grinding of teeth? You can follow my words, and I will follow your words!
Xu Jingzong said: "The palace maids are all in charge of their duties. As the first official in the palace, if he takes care of someone, it means that no one is really out of favor. The palace maid must have caused the emperor's displeasure for a while. In fact, the emperor still likes her very much. Sooner or later, she will have to be a concubine. General Shi understands the truth, so she deliberately arranged for her to stay in Ganlu Palace so that she can meet the emperor at any time. In this way, if she becomes a concubine in the future, she will thank General Shi for... "
He analyzed it and saw an expression of enlightenment on his face, and there was a hint of joy.
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "Isn't it just burning the cold stove? Could it be that you also want to go and cook? You'd better cook Sister Wu's cold stove obediently, you must have a strong burn!"
Wang Ping'an nodded and said, "So that's it. It seems that if you have the chance to see that palace maid again, you have to have a good relationship with her!"
"Who said no... Ah, the prince must not misunderstand. As foreign ministers, if we don't talk to the people in the palace, try not to speak to others, so as not to make others suspicious. Now that the world is getting worse, many people are dirty and have all kinds of dirty ideas, so they can't be guarded against!" Xu Jingzong looked like an elder, and said earnestly to Wang Ping'an.
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "You talk about yourself, I think you are dirty enough!" He nodded and said: "What Lord Xu said is very reasonable!" As he said that, he yawned, not pretending, he was indeed a little sleepy.
Seeing this, Xu Jingzong knew that he could not say that these useless things were useless and had to talk about serious matters. He asked, "Mr. Wang, why did you stay in Xitai for two nights in a row? Let's talk about the heart, is there someone in the palace sick? If there is an emergency, you can take care of it nearby at night?"
No wonder Xu Jingzong became more and more successful in the future. If a person thinks about it with all his heart, then there is nothing in this world, and he will not be able to figure it out. He said that Wang Ping'an guessed it as soon as he guessed it. In fact, his own ability may not be very bad!
Wang Ping'an frowned. Why did he stay here? The real reason was that he couldn't tell him. But if he made up a reason casually, it would be certain that he could send him away, but he would definitely continue to guess randomly, and even ask others that things might get bigger and bigger. Such things must be guarded against!
What reason should I make up? If you have it, the Crown Princess has established a relationship with her and recognized her cousin, so just use this one!
Wang Ping'an looked mysterious and showed an expression of wanting to say but not wanting to say it, which made Xu Jingzong's appetite swell up! Xu Jingzong put his head over and waited for Wang Ping'an to speak anxiously.
Wang Ping'an said: "Brother Xu, we are friends of age. I don't hide it from you anymore. I will tell you. You must not tell others... Forget it, I won't say it anymore!"
Xu Jingzong hurriedly said, "Don't, Brother Wang has anything to say, you have to tell me, so that I can prepare something in advance!"
Wang Ping'an thought solemnly, and he stood up, pulled his shoes, came to the door, opened the door and looked outside, then closed the door, then came back, lowered his voice, and said, "Brother Xu, don't you know yet, the princess of the East Palace is my cousin!"
Xu Jingzong took a deep breath and said, "Brother Wang, you actually have this kind of good friend. The Crown Princess is the future queen. You are the uncle!"
Wang Ping'an said excitedly, "Let's talk about the future, but now there will be a big trouble."
Xu Jingzong asked, "What a big trouble?"
Wang Ping'an lowered his voice again and said, "A few days ago, a concubine in the East Palace fell ill and thought she was going to have a son, so she asked me to treat her. What's the relationship between this concubine and my cousin is a bit like that... Lord Xu understands!"
Xu Jingzong hurriedly said, "I understand, understand. Not to mention the palace, it is just my husband's house, it's still the same!"
Wang Ping'an sighed and said, "As a result, I made the concubine's belly smaller!" He deliberately said something vaguely.
Xu Jingzong was a man who asked. He had heard about the incident in the Eastern Palace some time ago, but he didn't know much about it. Now, when Wang Ping'an said that, he thought it was a palace fight, and Wang Ping'an helped his cousin...the methods were so cruel!
Wang Ping'an said: "I have stayed in the palace these two days. It's not OK to stay in Chongxian Pavilion. It will make other concubines in the East Palace suspicious, so I have to stay here. As for medicine, don't ask this brother Xu, and help you... General Shi Da is my uncle!"
He only made up a random reason that could not be verified, and he didn't say a word of the important result, which made Xu Jingzong want to go!
Xu Jingzong's thoughts changed rapidly. How should this matter be operated? The palace fight is good. As long as someone is willing to fight, he can take advantage of the situation. He has to go back and think about it carefully! He thought he had useful news, so he refused to waste time here. After saying a few gossips, he said goodbye!
