Chapter 272: Restore memory (two changes) (1/2)
Chapter 272 Restoring Memory (Two Changes)
She was stunned.
She was stunned for a while, moved her mouth in disbelief, but did not make a sound for a long time.
...Jiaojiao?
Does the name that slipped out of her mouth inadvertently belonged to this little girl?
Why do you treat her...
”Queen Mother!”
Zhuang Yuexi’s voice suddenly appeared, and she saw a small familiar figure standing beside the Queen Mother from a distance, suspicious, and walked over to see that it was really Gu Jiao.
Her heart clicked.
Then she saw the small purse in Gu Jiao's hand, and her face changed abruptly.
She tried her best to conceal her anxiety, telling herself that the queen mother had forgotten this girl, and now the person she loves is herself, no matter how much this girl tossed, it would be futile.
The thoughts turned, she calmed down.
She looked at Gu Jiao, and asked with questioning: ”What are you here for? Is the palace a place where you can come and go as you please?”
Of course not, but since Gu Jiao can come in, at least she has a way out. The people Gu Jiao knows in the palace except the emperor is the queen mother. The queen mother did not give her free access, so she can only be the emperor.
Zhuang Yuexi’s remarks are undoubtedly reminding the Queen Mother that Gu Jiao is an emperor.
The expression of Queen Mother Zhuang really got colder again.
Zhuang Yuexi continued: “I heard that your majesty’s dragon body violated peace, and you are treating your majesty, and I don’t know how the diagnosis is going.”
Who up and down Zhaoguo knew that the Queen Mother and the emperor were mortal enemies. The Queen Mother Zhuang supported the emperor to ascend the throne only to train a puppet emperor, and the emperor would not be willing to be a puppet when his wings were hardened.
The fight between the two has never stopped.
The queen mother wanted to take advantage of the emperor’s illness to pinch the emperor to death, but Gu Jiao’s appearance gave the emperor a glimmer of life. Will the Queen Mother Zhuang see Gu Jiao in her heart?
The words still reverberated in Queen Mother Zhuang's mind, but it was no longer confused, but cold. This girl approached herself because of the emperor's instruction, and she let her take the opportunity to walk into her heart because of her loss of memory. .
She just accidentally caught this girl's way, and she won't be anymore.
”Things are left, you can go.” Empress Dowager Zhuang raised her chin and said to the flowers in the Royal Garden.
”Oh.” Gu Jiao raised her eyebrows and glanced at Zhuang Yuexi, ”So it's not my aunt who asked me to return it?”
Empress Dowager Zhuang recalled. This girl seemed to say the word ”return” from the beginning. She frowned and looked at the wrinkled purse. It was really a...very weird purse. , The thread ends are all left outside.
Is this girl... made it for her personally?
”It is clear that you stole the Queen Mother's things yourself, and you came here to talk to yourself!” Zhuang Yuexi squeezed her fingers, turned her head and said to the Queen Mother, ”The queen mother must have accidentally fallen on the road just now and was picked up by this girl. Arrived.”
Gu Jiao looked at Zhuang Yuexi: ”You gave it to me.”
Zhuang Yuexi denies: ”I don't!” She turned to face the Queen Mother, ”Queen Mother, don't listen to her instigate!”
”Enough!” The Queen Mother interrupted Zhuang Yuexi. Zhuang Yuexi was too noisy today, which made her a little irritable.
In fact, today Gu Jiao said much more than Zhuang Yuexi’s, but what the Queen Mother didn’t realize was that she only thought Zhuang Yuexi was very noisy.
Gu Jiao grievedly looked at the Queen Mother Zhuang: ”Do you really want me to go? Then you tell me in person, you don't want me anymore.”
The Queen Mother Zhuang took a deep breath and opened her mouth.
She couldn't say it. Thinking of saying to this girl that I don't want you anymore, her throat was like a huge stone.
”It's boring.” The Queen Mother stood up coldly, and left the Royal Garden with her sleeves.
Gu Jiao touched the purse in her hand.
After the Queen Mother was gone, Zhuang Yuexi said coldly: ”Don't be boring anymore! What your family has done to my aunt, you know in your heart! Auntie is kind to my aunt and she is kind to you. Don't care about it, but don't push your nose! Do you really think your aunt loves you? She just treats you as me! I am her real grand niece!”
”Oh.” Gu Jiaoman replied carelessly, without taking Zhuang Yuexi's words to heart.
This woman has no truth in her mouth, she doesn’t listen or listen, and the eighth chanting!
Zhuang Yuexi saw her indifferently, and only felt that she had hit the cotton with a punch, and she was extremely powerless.
In fact, she is still a savvy person, but she can easily be so excited that she forgets her sense of measure when she meets Gu Jiao. She baffled her heart and blurted out, ”You can weigh your own weight! Stop dreaming! Aunt, she was early. I don't remember you anymore!”
Gu Jiao had a look.
So I don’t remember her...
Gu Jiao believed this sentence.
Gu Jiao's plan to leave the palace turned back again, and walked forward boldly.
”Where are you going?” Zhuang Yuexi scolded.
”Renshou Palace.” Gu Jiao raised her eyebrows and said without looking back.
Zhuang Yuexi stamped her feet with anger: ”You!”
Gu Jiao caught up with the empress dowager Zhuang, the palace people used to look at the queen mother's face, she chased after her, and the queen mother did not order her to drive her, so the palace people did not dare to speak.
At Renshou Palace, Queen Mother Zhuang stepped inside.
Gu Jiao also slipped inside.
Duke Qin gritted his teeth, why is this girl a little lingering?
The Queen Mother finally stopped in the small garden in the front hall, and she looked at Gu Jiao blankly: ”Why always follow Laijia?”
Gu Jiao thought for a while: ”I want to follow you.”
Queen Mother Zhuang: ”...”
She should be very angry, but why is she a little...little cheer?
Is she poisoned by this girl? During the more than a year under house arrest, how much ecstasy did this girl give her?
Empress Dowager Zhuang returned to her bedroom in anger.
Gu Jiao naturally followed in. She looked at the magnificent bedroom and wondered: ”Auntie, is this the place where you live? Will it be lonely?”
It looks luxurious, but it is big and empty, and everything is cold.
Queen Mother Zhuang was in a daze when she heard the words.
No one ever asked her, she is not lonely.
The father who sent her to the palace did not ask, the husband who left her in the deep palace did not ask, nor did the tribe who hoped her to climb higher and higher.
Stunned, a light white hand stretched out, holding a freshly opened paper bag with three candied fruits inside.
This kind of preserves comes from the folks, and the dried fruits of the palace are much more delicate.
”Bold! How can you eat such dirty things from the folks for the Queen Mother!” Zhuang Yuexi walked over with a assorted fruit tray with freshly cut melons in it, sprinkled with a few palace dried fruits for decoration, look. This is much higher grade than Gu Jiao's preserves.
Queen Mother Zhuang's eyes fell on the candied fruit in Gu Jiao's palm, swallowed hard, and said with a majestic expression: ”Ai's family won't eat it!”
”Oh.” Gu Jiao ate it herself.
The queen mother of Zhuang ate the melons and fruits served by Zhuang Yuexi, but she didn’t know the taste.
Gu Jiao went to the small kitchen again and made a bowl of sweetened eggs for the Queen Mother.
Zhuang Yuexi looked at the sweetened eggs in the bowl with disgust: ”Are you going to eat this kind of food for the queen mother?”
The Imperial Diet also has eggs, but they are shrimp custard, shark fin custard, abalone egg custard, sweet-scented osmanthus wolfberry pearl egg flower...Who would eat this kind of sweetened egg?
Gu Jiao ignored her, walked over, put a bowl of steaming sweetened eggs on the table next to the Queen Mother, and whispered: ”I put half a spoonful of brown sugar.”
I still put more sugar!
The empress dowager refused in her heart. She is a queen mother of a country, how can she eat such unrefined things?
She rolled her face coldly, tears streaming from the corners of her mouth uncontrollably...
The Queen Mother is going to take a nap, Gu Jiao and Zhuang Yuexi were invited by the palace people to rest in the side hall next door.
Gu Jiao's origin is a bit unclear, but as long as the queen mother doesn't chase her, the palace people have no guts to deal with her.
”You guys also retreat. Ai's family doesn't like people to wait on them when they sleep.”
”Yes.”
The two little court ladies who were next to each other also retreated.
Only the Queen Mother Zhuang was left in the large bedroom. She was lying on the large and luxurious phoenix bed, half-squinted, her back facing the direction of the table.
The windows of Xuanxuan are wide open, and the gentle breeze is blowing slowly.
Gu Jiao put **** in the sugar water egg, and the aroma of **** juice hitting brown sugar filled the whole bedroom.
The empress dowager Zhuang tossing and turning, it is difficult to sleep.
Finally, she turned her mind, sat up, came to the table and sat down, holding a bowl of sweetened eggs, sucking and eating!
Suddenly, a small cyan figure hung upside down from the beam, with its head hanging upside down outside the window, happily calling out: ”Auntie~”
The Queen Mother Zhuang shook her body, almost choking to death!
Eating sugar water eggs was caught, and there is no one.
Gu Jiao hangs the golden hook upside down, blood rushes to the top of her head, her small face flushed, she looks a little cute.
Queen Mother Zhuang glanced, then glanced again.
Gu Jiao didn't hang it for too long, she leaned in from the window with her bare hand on the window sill.
Madam Zhuang said without changing her face: ”The Aijia just doesn't want to waste it.”
Gu Jiao nodded and nodded: ”Hmm, all hard work!”
Queen mother Zhuang finished eating, wiped her mouth, and said solemnly: ”It's not very delicious.”
Gu Jiao looked at the bowl with no residue left: ”...”
Gu Jiao said again: ”Auntie, don’t you remember about Bishui Hutong?”
The Queen Mother Zhuang was taken aback, and then said seriously: ”The Aijia never remembers irrelevant things!”
”Oh.”
Gu Jiao let out a cry, came to the Queen Mother Zhuang, squatted down on one knee, took her hand, and looked up at her: ”Auntie, I'll take you out of the palace.”
The Queen Mother said indifferently: ”What are you doing?”
Gu Jiao: ”You are not happy in the palace.”
The Queen Mother thought she would say, I will take you out of the palace to help you retrieve your previous memories, but unexpectedly it was such a sentence.
Does this girl care if she remembers her?
Just thinking about whether she is happy or not?
The Queen Mother Zhuang looked away and said coldly: ”Who said the Ai's family is unhappy? The Ai's family is the most noble woman in Zhaoguo, and the queen mother who is in power. In this world, as long as the Ai's family wants, the Ai's family is at your fingertips. .”
Gu Jiao did not speak, but looked at her distressedly.
I thought my aunt had forgotten, and the most sad person was her, but in fact... it was her.
Queen Mother Zhuang didn't dare to meet Gu Jiao's clear eyes. She looked out the window and said coldly: ”You were sent by the emperor again, right? What is good for the Aijia, but it is just pouring ecstasy on the Aijia again! The Aijia might as well tell you the truth, your trick...”
Before she finished her voice, she felt a soft touch in the palm of her hand.
She looked down and saw the little girl spread her hand and buried her cheek in the palm of her hand.
The face is soft, with baby fat that has not faded.
Long eyelashes, every time they tremble, they sweep on the palm of her hand and on the apex of her heart.
Half an hour later, Qin Gonggong called the Queen Mother Zhuang to get up as usual.
Queen Dowager Zhuang has been in the harem for decades, and she is extremely strict with her work and rest, without delay for a moment.
”Queen dowager, the slave comes in to wait for you to change your clothes.”
Duke Qin finished the report outside the door, and pushed in with a stack of gorgeous clothes.
But when he came to Queen Mother Zhuang’s phoenix bed and saw the person on the bed, he was shocked: ”Big—”
Before speaking, he felt two sharp gazes.
He turned around hurriedly and bowed to the well-dressed Queen Mother Zhuang: ”Queen Mother.”
The Queen Mother wore not a phoenix gown, nor an ordinary palace costume, but...the coarse cloth clothes of the folks.
Duke Qin was a little dumbfounded.
The Queen Mother Zhuang glanced at Gu Jiao, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, and said indifferently: ”Ai's family is going out of the palace, you should also change your clothes.”
”……Yes.”
Duke Qin responded.
As an old man next to the Queen Mother, he naturally does not need to teach himself what clothes to change.
Duke Qin often went out of the palace to buy, and there were also outfits outside the palace. He ordered the queen mother to practice calligraphy in the study, so that the palace people should not be disturbed. After that, he took the queen mother out of the palace without knowing it.
On the carriage outside the palace, Duke Qin asked the queen mother: ”Too...cough, old lady, where are we going now?”
Queen Mother Zhuang looked at the vast sky outside the palace, breathing air that shouldn’t belong to her, and muttered, “Bishui Hutong.”
That girl seems to say so.
Bishui Hutong is near the Imperial College, and it is fairly well-known, and Duke Qin happened to know it.
At this time, the night has fallen, and thousands of lights are lit up along the street.
This is her peaceful and prosperous time, but this excitement does not belong to her.
”That's it.” Duke Qin slowed down and was about to turn into the alley. Empress Dowager Zhuang suddenly said, ”Just stop here.”
”Yes.” Duke Qin got out of the carriage and asked a little **** who was accompanying him to watch the carriage, and he helped Queen Mother Zhuang walk down.
Bishui Hutong's road was originally a bit bumpy, but now it has been filled with all kinds of strange materials, as if it was filled from house to house.
”Huiyuan Road.” Empress Dowager Zhuang said suddenly.
Duke Qin was stunned for a moment: ”The queen mother...is going to give a name to this road?”
”I don't know.” The Queen Mother shook her head.
was just a momentary thought, and she didn't understand why she said that.
She continued to walk forward, walking very slowly.
Suddenly, in a house on the right, someone opened the courtyard door and walked out. Seeing her, his eyes lit up: ”Aunt Huo! I haven't seen you for a few days! You've come back in your own way! How did you go so long?”
The Queen Mother Zhuang looked at her startledly.
Aunt Liu stepped forward and took her hand: ”It's just right! Three missing one!”
”Presumptuous!” Qin Gonggong gritted his teeth in a low voice.
Aunt Liu found Duke Qin: ”Huh? Who is this? Is your natal nephew?”
Qin Gong kneeled at the tolerance point!
He is a slave, where can he be relatives with the Queen Mother? Isn't this damaging him?
”The coachman,” said the Queen Mother.
”It's weird!” Aunt Liu's eyes lingered on Duke Qin.
Duke Qin clamped his legs: The miscellaneous family is an eunuch!
