Since she recovered from her illness, she has met many people, but she feels very unfamiliar with this aunt who is related to her by blood.
Jiang Mingzhi didn't know why she suddenly sent someone over. You know, regarding the incident of falling into the lake, the family had all said that it was a maid who fell into the water. Could it be that her aunt couldn't send someone to check on her maid?
Wang Qiang saw that Jiang Mingzhi looked a little uneasy, so she deliberately moved closer and explained to her, "When we first arrived in Beijing, we went to the palace to pay our respects to Sixth Aunt. Don't be afraid, Aunt Liu is very kind."
Jiang Mingzhi listened, feeling somewhat relieved. Wang Qiang, seeing they still had some distance to go, continued in a low voice, "Sixth Auntie must have known what happened yesterday. Although we kept it a secret, it's impossible for her not to know. After all, so many princes were there yesterday."
Speaking of this, Jiang Mingzhi's heart tightened. Yes, others didn't know the reason, but how could those princes and the aristocratic families with deep roots not know the truth? Everyone just kept it a tacit understanding in order to get away with it on the surface.
But Concubine Shu must have known that the crowds of people who flocked to Minghu Lake yesterday were all looking for her, not to mention that there were several princes among them. It goes without saying what kind of scene this was and what it meant.
When she was celebrating her first birthday, she had dealt with this Concubine Shu. She was a very beautiful woman, and her every frown and smile seemed to have been practiced long ago, just right, not too much, not too little, and there was no trace of unnaturalness in her.
Shufei has been in the palace for many years and has Prince Yi by her side. With such a powerful maternal family like the Wang family as her backing, she can be said to be sitting firmly on the throne in the palace. Now that the central palace has no master, most people speculate that the future throne will undoubtedly belong to Shufei.
If a person does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. Jiang Mingzhi can be sure that there must be something about him that Concubine Shu saw and thought she could use it for her benefit, which is why she cared so much about him.
While she was daydreaming, she arrived at the front hall. Her aunt was already there. When she saw her, she smiled and waved to her, asking her to come forward and listen to her orders.
The person who came was Jiang Li, the chief eunuch in Shufei Chaohua Palace. Jiang Li was drinking tea in the front hall. When he saw the main person coming, he slowly put down the teacup and looked towards Jiang Mingzhi.
It was said that she was already over eighteen years old, had been ill for more than ten years and had not received much education, and did not have a very good reputation in Kyoto. However, what Jiang Li saw was a young lady from a marquis's mansion with a slender figure, bright eyes and white teeth, and very well-behaved, generous and virtuous manners.
"It's true that hearing is believing, seeing is believing!"
Jiang Li smiled and said something with an ambiguous meaning. Jiang Mingzhi listened and couldn't help but analyze this sentence in his mind.
Does it mean that she has a bad reputation, but the person she sees is different from what he imagined?
After Jiang Li finished speaking, he stepped forward and announced Shufei's intention.
"Your Majesty is very concerned about Miss Jiang. When Miss Jiang was ill, Your Majesty was afraid that it would delay her recovery. Now that she has recovered, Your Majesty is still thinking about her. Tomorrow, please invite Miss Jiang to the palace to see Your Majesty at noon!"
Then he gave the rewards given by Concubine Shu to the servants of the Wang family.
They were all common things, silks, satins, tonics, a box of silk flowers and a set of pearl head ornaments. Although they were not rare items, they became popular after going around the palace. They were not just items, but also a kind of honor.
Jiang Mingzhi took a look at the silk flowers. There were several colors, all of which were very refreshing and elegant light colors. The silk flowers were much more exquisite than those sold outside.
