Chapter 838: Male face trouble water

She said: "I don't know, what does the lady want to ask the servant girl."
Nan Yan picked up the teacup and took a sip, and then said: "The last time I came here, the mother once said that you were serving by Emperor Gao, so you met the uncle in this palace."
"Yes."
"Then, are you the Emperor Gao's personal servant girl?"
Mother Su's eyes flickered slightly before she said, "It was originally, but it was not."
"It was originally? Not later?"
"Originally, the slave servant was serving with Emperor Gao, but then after the imperial concubine—Qin Guifei entered the palace, the servant servant was assigned to serve in Yikun Palace."
"..."
"So, the servant girl is Qin Guifei's personal court lady."
Nan Yan raised his eyebrows slightly.
This is not surprising.
Since she had handed over some of Qin's concubine's things to Ning Concubine before, Nan Yan faintly guessed that even if she was not the person who served Qin's concubine, she must have been in contact with Qin concubine.
Sure enough.
Nan Yan smiled and asked, "Then, what kind of person is Qin Guifei?"
Madam Su glanced at her, and then said: "The imperial concubine...Qin Guifei, she is very modest. Although she was born in the rivers and lakes, she is not a famous lady, but she is magnanimous and majestic, which many ladies can't match."
Nan Yan nodded softly.
She remembered that Concubine Ning once said that when Emperor Gao and Luo Xingwen jointly fought against Kuo, Qin Xixi played a big role in the middle.
Being able to achieve the union of the two powers, this woman is more than just being magnanimous.
Must be bold, knowledgeable, and careful.
It's a strange woman to be able to do this.
However, such a strange woman ended up in a deserted mound on Xingluo Lake in the end.
Nan Yan thought for a while, and said, "Since the mother served the concubine Qin, do you know how she died—how did she die?"
Madam Su glanced at her: "Do you know she is dead?"
South Yandao: "My palace is on Xingluo Lake and I have seen her grave."
"Oh……"
Madam Su nodded: "Concubine Ning, every year, she will pay her respects to Concubine Qin."
After speaking, she glanced at Nan Yan again before saying, "Actually, the slave servant doesn't know how Qin Guifei passed away."
"You don't know? Aren't you her close court maid?"
"Although I am her personal court lady, sometimes, I can't follow her at any time."
It does.
Just like Ran Xiaoyu is so loyal to herself and so capable, she may not always be by her side.
What's more, Madam Su is like this, she didn't want to be a practicing family like Ran Xiaoyu.
Nan Yan said, "The mother meant that when Concubine Qin died, you were not with her?"
"Yes."
"Then when did she pass away?"
"She is here, shortly after the canonization of the imperial concubine, the second year of Emperor Gao's founding."
Nan Yan couldn't help but stunned.
So early?
That imperial concubine, who spent almost no time in the harem, passed away early.
"Then, where did she die? Was it in the palace?"
"Of course not. If you were in the palace, the servant girl would definitely stay by her side."
Madam Su's expression looked a little sad, and she said, "She was infected and passed away when she followed Emperor Gao to the north and had the last negotiation with the envoy of the Kingdom of Lao."
"...!"
Nan Yan's heart beat.
Negotiating with the envoy of the country?
She subconsciously remembered the painting Wu Yingqiu had seen in the Jinlou.
What should be presented is that negotiation.
But what I didn't expect was that Concubine Qin also followed Emperor Gao.
It is reasonable to say that concubines would not participate in such a major event, but considering that Qin Xixi had made such a great contribution to Emperor Gao and Luo Xingwen at the beginning, I think her strengths should not be the husband and the son.
It is very diplomatic.
Therefore, Emperor Gao will take her with him during the negotiation.
Unfortunately, she fell ill and passed away.
Nan Yan was silent for a while, and said: "After she passed away, she just—"
"It was buried on Xingluo Lake."
Madam Su's expression became even more sullen, and she said, "Although the slave and maid don't understand why Emperor Gao didn't build a tomb for the imperial concubine, she is the imperial concubine after all."
"..."
"But she herself doesn't like being surrounded by these red walls."
"..."
"Probably, buried where she came from, maybe it is a good thing for her."
"..."
Nan Yan did not expect that there was such a story back then.
For some reason, although it is a long story, Nan Yan's mood has been fluctuating while listening.
There seems to be a little bit of sadness.
strange.
Although she is very sympathetic, other people's stories are after all other people's stories. She seldom gets caught in other people's emotions, and is rarely affected in this way.
After she finished speaking, she was quiet for a while, seeming to calm her emotions, then raised her head to look at her, and said, "Why does the imperial concubine suddenly want to ask about the concubine Qin?"
Nan Yan was silent for a while before saying, "The grandmother of this palace, passed away a few days ago."
"Please grief."
"Well, before she died, she had mentioned Concubine Qin several times."
"..."
"I don't know, is it because she and Concubine Qin are old, so my palace wants to inquire about it. If there is something unfinished, my palace wants to do it, it can be regarded as a filial piety for grandmother."
"Lao Si...?"
After hearing this, Madam Su thought for a while, and said, "The slave girl remembers that Concubine Qin and Madam Si are indeed acquainted, and sometimes they talk about Madam Si and Bo Wanghou. "
"Is it?"
"Yes."
"..."
"Concubine Qin has lost her life since childhood. It seems that she has been taken care of by Mrs. Si for a while."
"It turned out to be so."
"Before she passed away, that is, before going to participate in the negotiation with Emperor Gao, she made a lot of clothes by herself, including summer and winter clothes, made for Mrs. Si."
"..."
"When I think about it, I think the old lady is a half mother."
Nan Yan was slightly moved.
I really didn't expect that between Qin Xixi and Tong Yuhua, there would be such a period of time.
It's no wonder that Tong Yuhua was sick and confused during the last period of his life, but he mentioned "the girl of the Qin family" several times.
Even to Concubine Ning, she was all kind and happy.
I want to come because of Qin Guifei's relationship.
It's a pity that the two of them have such a good relationship, and Qin Ruolan and himself had a quarrel before they were almost torn apart. It was really ashamed to want to come.
It's all because of Zhu Feng.
Male face trouble!
Nan Yan couldn't help but smiled bitterly.
She thought for a while, and then asked, "Mother, how much do you know about the past of Concubine Ning and the emperor?"
