In Jia's house, the lights are also bright at this time.
Jia Yong is already 70 years old. When he is older, he has less time to sleep. Sometimes he can't sleep and gets up to read the meeting book. At this time, the doorman outside didn't dare to neglect when he saw the Queen's maid coming. He hurried to open the door and welcomed aunt Shen in.
"I've seen a bachelor." Aunt Shen, as the first palace maid beside the empress, naturally has a different identity, but she is still very humble in front of Lord Jia.
Although Jia Yong couldn't figure out why the queen would send someone at this time, he saw more of the world and didn't panic at all. He asked someone to invite aunt Shen to the seat.
"Aunt, please have tea. I don't know if there's anything important to come at midnight?" Jia Yong looked puzzled.
After drinking tea and moistening her throat, aunt Shen looked at Jia Yong with a worried look. "Lord Jia, this matter is very important. Please see the queen with your maid."
Today is the first day of the lunar new year, and it is also a big day for a life woman to enter the palace. The queen doesn't call people early or late. However, at this time, Jia Yongning can guess that since it is related to the queen, it must be related to tassels.
Without further delay, he stood up and said, "excuse me, aunt. I'll be right there."
Within a moment, two carriages, one in front and one behind, set out from Jia's house again and went straight to the palace.
"Madam, Lord Jia has arrived and is waiting in the main hall."
Aunt Shen woke up the queen who was sleeping. As soon as the queen heard this, she immediately sat up from the imperial concubine's couch and helped her hair on the temples. Aunt Shen helped to tidy up her sleeves before walking to the main hall.
On the way to the Queen's palace, Jia Yong was beating drums in his heart. A few days ago, when Liu Su returned to Jia's house to visit him, he wanted to stop talking. Today, the queen specially invited him into the palace. It seems that something big must have happened.
Just as he was thinking, the queen came.
Jia Yong hurriedly restrained his mind and came forward to salute tremblingly.
Chen xinrou's head tilted slightly, and aunt Shen hurried forward to help him. "Lord Jia doesn't have to be polite. Your mother called you here. She's just an elder of tassel. Please sit down."
Jia Yong narrowed his eyes and knew clearly that it was really related to tassels.
After they took their seats, all the idle people stepped down, and aunt Shen was left to guard the door.
Indoor candles flicker, tea fragrance curls around, and Chen xinrou also goes straight to the theme.
"Lord Jia, I'll make a long story short. But if there is a little room for change, I won't ask you to come..."
There was a lot of foreshadowing. The queen didn't talk about the key point. Jia Yong's eyelids jumped a few times. It was the old minister. He spoke and did things with great discretion, "madam, but it doesn't hurt. The old minister can stand it."
Chen xinrou sighed, "earlier today, the tassel child came to the palace to help the palace deal with chores. The palace accidentally found that the palace guard sand on her arm was still..."
There was no need to say the rest. Jia Yong immediately stood up from his chair, "madam, this... This, the old minister has never heard the princess mention it!"
Chen xinrou's face was soft, and there was an anxious look between her eyebrows. "Lord Jia, this was originally a matter of the palace, but the girl with tassels has only one family member, so we have to..."
The prince and the tassel still haven't given the gift of the Duke of Zhou. Jia Yong is still waiting for his great grandson. Now the queen tells him the truth, which is more solid than beating him a few sticks head-on.
Jia Yong felt a whirl of heaven and earth, and he could hardly breathe.
"Lord Jia, are you okay? Aunt Shen, come in! " Chen xinrou is really flustered. She didn't expect that Jia Yong almost fainted. Jia Yong is old. If she really confesses here, she can't get rid of her relationship.
"Don't worry, my lady. I'm fine. I'll be my lady today. I haven't been here." Jia Yong stopped aunt Shen's hand and limped back on crutches.
On a moonlit night with few stars, Jia Yong's back looks a little bleak.
The master and servant looked at Jia Yong's distant figure. Aunt Shen looked at the queen with some worry, "madam, don't you really care?"
At this time, Chen xinrou calmed down in her heart and raised a sneer on her lips. "Since your majesty is impatient to listen to what the palace says, another person said that he can naturally listen. Let's go."
Jia Yong came out of the Queen's palace and didn't hurry back. Instead, he went to the Taihe hall. The Taihe hall was the place where the officials went to the court. At this time, it was just a quarter past midnight, and there were three hours before the Court went to the court. The head of the internal attendant at the door was surprised to see that he was a great scholar. He rubbed his eyes to make sure he was right. "Lord Jia, it's heavy at night. You don't go back to the house to rest, What are you doing here? "
The internal warden must think whether Lord Jia is old and confused and remembers the time of going to court incorrectly.
Jia Yong looked serious. "Please tell your majesty, sir. I have something important to tell you."
The internal warden was in a dilemma. "Lord Jia, don't be embarrassed. Your majesty has already rested. If you have something to do, go to the court tomorrow."
The reason why he still speaks kindly is because he is an old minister. If someone didn't understand the rules, he would have been beaten out by random sticks. How could he talk so much nonsense to him again.
Unexpectedly, Jia Yong was more stubborn than they thought. Instead of leaving, he knelt down with this old bone.
It's freezing. Although it's been thirty or nine days, the cold in spring can't be underestimated. If you really freeze this adult, it'll be enough for him to drink a pot.
After thinking about it, the internal warden decided to risk his life to go to the inner room. In case his majesty didn't sleep, he could also protect Lord Jia from the cold.
Jia Yong looked indifferent. He was ready to kneel here all night. He looked at his nose and heart and thought about things. He didn't pay attention to what the internal supervisor was doing.
Emperor Yan goes to bed now, either to the moon hall where imperial concubine Qin is located, or to the side hall. Just now the queen came and stirred his interest. After saying a few words with imperial concubine Qin, he went back to the side hall alone. He didn't want to share a room with the old queen. He simply read the memorial in the side hall. This view missed the time to go to bed.
