Ye Peizhu sniffed it and said, "I like it. The daughter-in-law also thanked the mother on Jiuer's behalf."
"You don't have to be so polite, Mei Cui. Go and pack up the spices for me and bring them here."
The imperial concubine ordered her personal nanny.
Mei Cui agreed and quickly brought the spices.
With so many spices put together, the taste is strong and a bit pungent.
Song Jiujiu couldn't help but sneeze.
"When there are too many spices, the smell is a bit pungent. Mei Cui, put it aside quickly."
As the imperial concubine spoke, she fanned the air in front of Song Jiujiu with her hands.
[Mei Cui? Is she the maid who served Grandmother personally? I wonder how many maids Grandmother had.
I remember that my grandmother died of poisoning in my previous life because the nanny around her poisoned her.
If grandma hadn't been poisoned, she would have definitely lived longer than the old emperor with her health!
I don’t know if my grandmother has been poisoned by the maid who serves her. How can I tell her about this and make her wary of the people around her?
I often wonder why I am still a baby who can’t speak! 】
Song Jiujiu looked at her grandmother with her bright dark eyes, muttering regretfully.
The imperial concubine listened to her granddaughter's thoughts and her heart skipped a beat again.
Mei Cui was the only maid who served her personally, while the others only cleaned the outer hall and ran errands.
It can be said that Mei Cui is the nanny she trusts the most, only because Mei Cui, who is over 40 years old this year, gave up the opportunity to leave the palace that year and chose to stay in the palace to serve her for the rest of her life.
This alone touched her deeply, and she gradually began to trust Mei Cui more.
If it is true as the little granddaughter said, that someone around her poisoned her.
It could only be Mei Cui who did it.
Mei Cui was responsible for her food, clothing, housing and transportation, and had many opportunities to poison her.
She had no chance to find out at all, and she might not even know how she died until she died!
The imperial concubine's hands and feet were cold, and her ears were buzzing.
No, she can't die so early in this life. She hasn't seen her grandchildren get married and start their own families!
She wants to live well!
The imperial concubine's eyes became firm.
Prince Kang, who was standing by, listened to his daughter's thoughts and looked at Mei Cui with increasing suspicion.
It seems that he has to find an opportunity to ask his mother to clean up the palace maids in the Beauty Palace.
Song Jiujiu's full moon ceremony was held in the evening. At lunch time, Prince Kang and his family stayed with the imperial concubine for lunch.
When the old emperor heard about it, he also came to the Beauty Hall to have dinner with everyone.
King Kang felt very warm to see his father, mother, wife and children sitting together for dinner.
However, his daughter's previous thoughts kept popping up in his mind from time to time, making him feel that the old emperor had other intentions.
Even now, his daughter's voice never stops, as if reminding him at all times not to indulge in this false warmth.
[It smells so good. I want to eat chicken legs. Mom, please give me some meat. I want to eat meat.]
Why does my father look at the old emperor with such admiration? Dad, you are so confused! You treat the old emperor as your father, but the old emperor may not treat you as his son! My father, please wake up!
King Kang: “….”
Wake up, wake up.
He could vaguely hear a hint of disappointment in his daughter's voice.
During the meal, the old emperor showed great consideration for the imperial concubine in everything he did.
Song Jiujiu couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
[The old emperor is so disgusting. Why is he still imitating young people at his age?
He's still hooking my grandmother like this! I wonder if my grandmother is just a love-brained person.
The old emperor is really not a good man. Which good man has three wives and four concubines and three thousand beauties in the harem?
What kind of good man would throw dirty water on others after his beloved woman died of poisoning?
Upon hearing this, the smile on the imperial concubine's well-maintained face faded a little.
The little granddaughter was right, the old emperor was indeed not a good man.
Everyone thought that it was a great honor for her to be favored by the emperor. In fact, this honor looked glamorous on the surface, but in fact it was also a death warrant.
All the concubines in the harem wanted to kill her!
But she didn't expect that even Mei Cui, who had served her for decades, was bribed and poisoned her.
"Your Majesty, I am full and do not want to eat anymore. Your Majesty is busy with government affairs, please go and do your work.
There are still two or three hours until my granddaughter's full moon ceremony, so let them stay here and keep me company."
The imperial concubine's smile did not reach her eyes, and she urged the old emperor to leave.
The old emperor felt that the imperial concubine was a little strange today.
It was obvious that the imperial concubine was very happy to see him yesterday, and she wished he would not leave and stay here with her.
Why did the imperial concubine actually take the initiative to drive him away today?
The old emperor's suspicious nature made him wonder if someone had said something to the imperial concubine.
But I saw the imperial concubine teasing Song Jiujiu with a smile.
The old emperor guessed that the imperial concubine wanted to stay with her granddaughter for a while longer and that's why she let him leave.
After the old emperor left, the imperial concubine's smile became even brighter.
[The old emperor is finally gone. I get angry just seeing him!]
Grandma Xiangxiang, hug this baby!
Grandma, please hold on for a few more months. When I grow up and can speak, I will come and help you find the bad guys!
Song Jiujiu cried out in frustration and stretched out her little hands to ask her grandmother to hug her.
The imperial concubine was so touched that she didn't want to let go of her soft little granddaughter.
Prince Kang and his family stayed in the Beauty Hall until the full moon ceremony was about to begin, and then left with the imperial concubine.
During this period, many concubines in the harem asked for an audience, but they were all rejected by the imperial concubine.
Those women clearly knew that her son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren were all here, yet they still came to spoil her fun. None of them had good intentions!
Song Jiujiu’s full moon ceremony was held in Yueming Palace.
The Yueming Palace is quite large and was used as a venue for large palace banquets in the past.
In the eyes of others, the full-moon ceremony for Song Jiujiu is enough to show how much the old emperor values his little granddaughter, Song Jiujiu.
Before the full moon ceremony began, Song Le'an took a special look at the outer hall and saw a large number of people coming.
The Yueming Palace, which is so big, looks like it is almost crowded.
"Mother, there are so many people outside. When you go out with my sister in your arms, please be careful.
Also, don't let your sister be held by someone you don't know easily."
Song Le'an warned his mother seriously.
Ye Peizhu touched Song Le'an's head and said, "Mom knows, go out quickly."
[My fifth brother is very worried about me, and I am also very worried about my fifth brother. I wonder how the relationship between my fifth brother and Dong Zhuo is going.
Why didn't my fifth brother tell me about it? I'm curious about the sequel.
Song Jiujiu muttered and stretched out her little hands to grab her fifth brother's clothes.
"Be good, sister. Fifth brother will play with you again when we get back home."
Song Le'an pinched his sister's chubby little hand, then went to the outer hall with his fourth brother to wait for the time to burn incense and pay homage to their ancestors.
After the full moon ceremony began, the bustling outer hall became quiet.
