Chapter 640 Entrusted(1/2)

Because of this princess' identity, Murong Hui didn't have to go too early, so when she arrived at Prince Jing's Mansion, many people had already arrived in the mansion.

These ladies and noble ladies gathered together in groups of three or three, talking and laughing, and watching it was very lively.

Seeing Murong Hui walk in, everyone stood up and saluted Murong Hui.

"Everyone gets up, there's no need to be too polite."

Murong Hui hates such scenes very much, but she is in such a position and has to come for some social engagements.

"Princess Linghui, please sit down."

At this time, the princess of Prince Jing's mansion came over and said politely.

The Jing Mansion is far less prominent than the Ling Mansion. Although both mansions are princes, King Jing died of illness a few years ago. Now the person who inherited the title of the king in the mansion is only ten years old.

Most of the time, this palace is supported by the old concubine Jing and Princess Jing.

But they are women after all, and they can't get involved in many things in the court. This is also the reason why Prince Jing's Mansion can safely escape many storms.

The princess who led Murong Hui to the main hall was Princess Wanning, the concubine of Prince Jing's mansion. This gentle and gentle person is one of the few people in the study room who is indifferent to the world.

"I heard that the old concubine is sick, and now she is getting better."

The two of them started chatting while walking.

Princess Wanning sighed softly, and saw that there was no one around, she lowered her voice and said, "Grandma's illness this time is really worse. Today, she said she was holding a birthday party, but in fact, because her grandmother's condition has not improved, she specially held a birthday party to celebrate the wedding."

The two of them said as they walked to the door of the main hall.

"Since that's the case, I'll go and visit the old concubine later."

After hearing her words, Murong Hui was not surprised, and this was right from what she thought.

After hearing this, Princess Wanning nodded quickly and whispered: "Then I will take you over to see my grandmother later."

As the two of them said, they walked into the main hall. Murong Hui found a seat to sit down and waited quietly for the banquet to begin.

Soon, Princess Jing came out and hosted the birthday party. The old concubine never came out from beginning to end.

Seeing that the time was almost over, Murong Hui urged Princess Wanning to take her to see the old concubine.

Wanning greeted the princess and then took Murong Hui out of the main hall.

After the two went out, they sat in a sedan chair and rushed to the place where the old concubine lived.

"Is the old concubine's place where she lives is far from the main hall?"

Murong Hui knew that although the royal palace was not as big as the imperial palace, it occupied a considerable area.

Therefore, when you go to some farther places, you still need to make a sedan chair.

"Since my father went there, my grandmother was heartbroken and moved to the side courtyard. She didn't like it on weekdays, we often disturbed her."

As the only second child in Prince Jing’s Mansion, Wanning was not spared. She could not easily see the old concubine without any trouble.

This time, because the old concubine was sick, the relatives of the royal family had to take turns to serve the disease, otherwise she would not be able to see the old concubine easily.

Murong Hui nodded and did not continue to ask more questions.

It took half an hour for the sedan chair to finally arrive at the gate of the yard where the old concubine lived.

Murong Hui got out of the sedan chair and looked up and saw a plaque on the door of the yard with Jingsiyuan on it.

It can be seen that the old concubine really doesn't like this person to disturb her.

Wanning led Murong Hui into the yard and headed straight to the entrance of the main hall.

As soon as he walked into the main entrance, a strong smell of medicine came towards him. Murong Hui was not prepared and staggered because of choking and almost didn't fall.

Fortunately, she quickly adjusted her mood and continued to walk inside with Princess Wanning.

Look at Princess Wanning's calm look

, It is obvious that she has long been used to this medicine.

After the two walked into the bedroom, they saw four people taking care of them. When these people saw Princess Wanning walk in, they immediately saluted respectfully.

Princess Wanning immediately told them about Murong Hui's identity.

These people saluted Murong Hui again, with a very respectful attitude.

Murong Hui asked them to get up, but she walked to the old concubine's bed.

The old concubine was lying on the bed at this time, her eyes closed and breathing was still stable. If she hadn't looked too bad, Murong Hui could have seen whether the concubine was sick.

The old concubine seemed to have noticed Murong Hui's arrival. After sleeping for a moment, she opened her eyes and looked at Murong Hui.

Huier comes to see you, do you think it’s better?”

Murong Hui said something and stood up and asked gently.

When the old concubine saw Murong Hui, she looked disappointed, as if the person who came this time shouldn't be Murong Hui.

"Is the Empress busy today?" At first Murong Hui thought that the old concubine didn't like her, but now it seems that she clearly disliked her background.

Murong Hui thought of this soon, adjusted her mood and said with a smile: "I don't know if my aunt is busy recently. She headed south to Hengzhou a few days ago."

Seeing her expression, Murong Hui was too lazy to be silly.

When the old concubine heard this, she calmed down and said, "You sit down quickly, don't have to stand and talk."

After hearing her words, Murong Hui sat on the stool beside the bed and looked at the old concubine.

Although the concubine looked sick, she looked calm and could not see any sense of fatigue from a person who had been sick for a long time.

"The emperor asked me to visit you, but now you have seen your illness improve a little."

Seeing that the old concubine was in a limited spirit, Murong Hui hurriedly said that she had to say everything she should say before the old concubine was tired.

"Linghui, you are not like your mother."

The old concubine did not respond, but smiled indifferently and sighed.

Murong Hui couldn't help but be stunned. She didn't expect the old concubine to say such things.

Because Lin Yingxin and Murong Jing are now taboos in the upper-class circles, I didn’t expect the old concubine to say it indifferently.

"I have something to ask for your help. If you are willing to help me, I will give you a gift."

The old concubine didn't care about Murong Hui's reaction and continued.

"The Concubine..."

As soon as she finished speaking, the nanny who stood beside the bed without saying a word suddenly looked at the old concubine with disagreement.

"I don't have much time." The old concubine's expression was very calm. After she said that, she took out a piece of paper from under the pillow and handed it to Murong Hui.

Murong Hui looked confused, but she still took the paper over and looked carefully, and found that there was a portrait of a person on the paper.

There is also a name on the portrait, Chu Huaining.

Seeing this name, Murong Hui immediately thought of the old concubine's surname as Chu. Is there any connection between the two?

"Is this your relative?"

She thought this way and asked.

"He is my grandson. I married once before marrying Lao Jing. But the first husband died early, and I married again, so I had to leave my son with the first husband in my parents' home. Huaining's child has lost his parents since childhood and has an awkward identity in the Chu family. If I am gone one day..."

The old concubine didn't say anything, but Murong Hui knew it very well.

Isn't she the same?

She looks noble, but her identity in the palace is so embarrassing.

She took a deep breath and asked, "How do you want me to help him?"

The old concubine thought for a moment and smiled and said, "You

Isn’t there a shop, let him go there to do a stewardship, and don’t become a slave.”

"If conditions permit in the future, I will send him to study."

This has done its best for Murong Hui, who is unable to protect herself.

The old concubine nodded with satisfaction. She thought for a long time before she decided to entrust the child to Murong Hui.

A quarter of an hour later, Murong Hui finally walked out of the old concubine's bedroom, and there was a small box the size of a palm in her hand.

The things in this small box were gifts given to her by the old concubine.

Murong Hui hadn't opened it and looked at it, so she didn't know what was there.

She handed the things to Madam Huang and asked her to put the small box on the carriage first.

Qingyue helped her to sit in the sedan chair and rushed towards the main hall.

When she returned to the main hall, the banquet was almost over. She sat for a while and the banquet ended.

Murong Hui stood up and said goodbye to Princess Jing, then walked leisurely towards the door.

"Princess Linghui, my mother-in-law's condition has worsened today. If she has any offense, please don't take it to heart."

Unexpectedly, as soon as Murong Hui walked out of the main hall, she saw Princess Jing chased her out.
