Xiao Ze was so busy that he didn't know until the rumors spread. At this time, the people of the entire Chang'an City already knew that the little lady of the Meng family, the future noble concubine, was lost in the earthquake in Shu.

"It's nonsense." Xiao Ze said coldly.

He has been busy with disaster relief these days, and he has not forgotten to let the dark guard go to Tongzhou to inquire about the little lady. On the other hand, let Lu Chuan go to Tongzhou for disaster relief and plan for the worst.

If she really goes missing, he will let Lu Chuan find her.

"Let the dark guard go and see where the news came from, but I want to see who has such well-informed news." Xiao Ze rubbed his forehead wearily and sighed.

On the second day, Queen Mother Meng asked Xiao Ze to come over.

Xiao Ze was a little impatient, but thinking of the relationship between Empress Meng and Chanyi, he changed his attention, "Prepare a chariot."

Actually, he also knew what he was doing, and it was nothing more than a matter of Chanyi.

When she arrived at the Xuanhui Hall, it was half noon. When the Queen Mother heard that Xiao Ze was coming, she hurriedly asked the most honorable Aunt Ping to come out to greet her.

"Your Majesty is down, please come in quickly, the Empress Dowager is waiting for you in the hall." Aunt Ping walked quickly, her skirt didn't move, her feet moved quickly, she bowed her knees and saluted, busy Bend over and invite Xiao Ze in.

Xiao Ze nodded and said, "There is Aunt Laoping."

Aunt Ping bowed: "Your Majesty, this is a slave servant." Xiao Ze's temperament is cold, and if she doesn't get close to the Queen Mother, how can she dare to have His Majesty treat each other like this?

Xiao Ze didn't speak again, just strode into the Xuanhui Hall. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Empress Dowager Meng sitting above. He bowed his hands and stood in the center of the hall, asking, "Why did the Empress Dowager ask me to come here?"

The Empress Dowager Meng said: "Ai's family heard about the earthquake in Tongzhou, and the child of Chanyi was in Tongzhou. Ai's family was worried, so she wanted to ask Your Majesty, how is Chanyi now?"

"There are countless casualties among the people of Tongzhou. There are many ruins in the city, and many missing people have not yet been found. The Xingqingfang where Cousin Meng and Mrs. Chen are located is on fire, and I have sent people to search for Cousin Meng. , I believe there will be news soon.”

The Empress Dowager Meng heard this and pondered: "That is to say, the child of Chanyi is... bad luck?"

"Yes, Chanyi is a lucky child." Empress Dowager Meng forced a smile, looking very concerned about Chanyi.

"Your Majesty, Aijia, I would like to ask you to send someone to find Chanyi as soon as possible. That is Aijia's niece, and Aijia thinks that such a lovely little lady is going out in Tongzhou I have trouble sleeping and eating in the Ai family, and I hope Your Majesty can help me with this."

"That's good, that's good." Empress Dowager Meng hurriedly said, wiping her tears, looking really worried.

Xiao Ze didn't have time to think about whether this was true or not. After finding the reason why he was still busy, he returned to the Xuanzheng Hall. It can be said that he came and went in a hurry.

After he left, Aunt Ping came in quietly, stood behind Empress Meng to loosen her muscles and bones, and then asked softly: "What should you do in preparation for the lady? Little, you still have to prepare in advance. Otherwise, when the disaster relief is over, it is time for King Huai and the monk to advise His Majesty to accept his concubine."

"Since you are not going to let the little lady Mingzhu enter the palace because of King Huai, you should also pay attention to the other little ladies in the house. The adults also have two little ladies from concubines, who are well behaved. Some are not on the table, and it is better to teach them as soon as possible."

"No hurry." Empress Dowager Meng closed her eyes and hummed softly.

"In the end, where is the concubine compared to the superior? If the girl in Chanyi is really gone, it would be a pity. Aijia really couldn't bear it, and asked her to marry her. Clothes."

Aunt Ping rubbed her shoulders with low eyebrows and pleasing to the eyes, and said carefully: "It's also the little lady who doesn't have that blessing, no wonder you, lady."

The Empress Dowager Meng sighed: "I hope she returns safely, otherwise don't blame Aijia for disregarding the affection of her aunt and nephew."

After a few days, the dark guard finally heard the news.

Xiao Ze looked calm on the face, but in fact he couldn't sleep all night, and he was worrying about Chanyi. As soon as he closed his eyes, he seemed to see the little lady crying and acting like a spoiled child.

During the day, government affairs are pressing, so he can feel better.

He heard the news that the fire in Xingqingfang had burned all night, and his heart was shocked and his head was dizzy. The ears roared, as if there were thousands of people shouting in their ears.

If he hadn't controlled himself at the last minute, he was afraid that he would have messed up in public. For the past few days, he has been comforting himself, the little lady has her own secret guard beside her, so she should be fine. After comforting himself many times, he finally calmed down.

The letter from the dark guard stated that the little lady's family was safe and sound, and they escaped before the fire started. Later, because the house was on fire and there was nowhere to go, they went to Zhuangzi first to stay. The little lady was afraid that His Majesty would be worried, so she wrote a letter to tell her. Please don't worry, Your Majesty, when Tongzhou becomes more stable, the little lady will take her back to Beijing.

After receiving this letter, Xiao Ze finally felt relieved, put the matter aside, devoted himself to handling government affairs, and was able to sleep peacefully at night.

It is half a month later, and the disaster relief in Shu has entered the mid-term. The people who can be rescued have been dug out from the rubble. The rest were not found, and they were reported to be dead. Immediately afterwards, the governors of the states organized young and middle-aged people to build houses.

The ministers who went to the disaster relief can't leave yet. They must settle the people before this winter, otherwise many people will freeze to death in winter. Until the end of the disaster relief, can return to Chang'an.

The news of the Earthquake in Shu was only discussed in Chang'an for a few days, and then was left behind by the children of the aristocratic family. .

At the flower viewing party the next day, someone talked and discussed this matter. Song Jianying was also sitting on the seat, listening to everyone's discussion, and sat there quietly all the time.

The eldest princess of Qinghe from Empress Dowager Meng was also there. Hearing that everyone was sighing and pity for a beautiful woman who was so fragrant, she sneered softly: "Some people want to be rich and noble, but they are not What life can be endured. No, here is a living example."

She raised her chin and took a sip of the tea cup slowly.

The air calmed down, the little ladies bowed their heads and pretended to be drinking tea and snacks, daring not to answer this.

Even if some people think so, but no one dares to say it, after all, the queen mother has been fortunately cultivated for more than a year. If his own words reach the ears of the Queen Mother and Her Majesty, it is hard to say how to punish them.

However, this eldest princess of Qinghe is strange. The little lady of the Meng family is her own cousin, and she was personally selected by the queen mother. Why does she not maintain it, but instead gloat?

"Sister Qinghe, Chanyi is also your cousin. How can you say that?" Although Lu Wan is timid, in terms of identity, she is not afraid of Princess Qinghe. of.

She was born in the Fanyang Lu clan, her father was the patriarch of the Lu clan, and her mother was the eldest princess of Dezong, and she was also a first-class lady. On the other hand, it was the eldest princess of Qinghe, and the Meng family was just a nouveau riche. Although her mother was Empress Dowager Meng, she really annoyed Lu Wan, and it was difficult to determine the outcome.

"Yiyang, isn't I telling the truth? Meng Chanyi is here, but it's not because she can't afford the blessings, I'm wrong?"

Lu Wan said angrily, "Chanyi is definitely fine, Sister Qinghe, don't talk nonsense."

Princess Qinghe was too lazy to deal with Lu Wan, turned to the county master Huayin, and said lazily: "Sister Huayin, you should take care of your little servant! This time I don't care about her, don't next time."

"I don't mean Sister Qinghe, Wanwan is innocent, but she is the purest person." Hua Yin was unmoved.

"By the way, I don't know what happened to the husband that Uncle An Wang chose for Sister Huayin. I heard that Yang Qigang was engaged to you last time, and he had a serious illness, so he thought it was you. After marrying him, he quickly dismissed the marriage. Later, my sister ran to Yang's house and taught Yang Qi a lesson with a good life?"

Hua Yin's face was calm, and she said lightly: "The concubine stole food a few days ago, didn't Sister Qinghe also chase the concubine and ran for an hour on Suzaku Street to teach the concubine a lesson?"

"You..." The last thing Qinghe didn't want to hear was this. Who knew, but quietly made the handmaiden beside him belly big, if she hadn't bumped into it, she didn't know when she would have been concealed.

Her face turned black, and even if she was about to lose her temper, her face softened a lot when she saw Song Jianying.

"Even if I come back, it's nothing."

"Chanyi, why are you in such a hurry, we have to go back to Chang'an before your second brother comes back?" Chen shi lay in the carriage, pale and feeble.

Chanyi turned her head and sighed: "Mother, there are too many refugees in Tongzhou, so it's not safe for us to stay there. Besides, after the earthquake, the livestock and civilians suffered too many casualties and were easily infected with epidemic diseases. You are so weak, I'm afraid you can't stay."

Chen shi had no choice but to say: "Then listen to you, let someone send a letter to your second brother, telling him that we have returned to Chang'an, so that he can not find us when he goes back."

"Don't worry, Auntie, I have already fixed all of this." Chanyi wiped her sweat with a handkerchief.

At the beginning of August, it was drizzling, and Chanyi's carriage finally entered Chang'an City, a place that had been away for a year.

Because the son quietly warned him, he knew that the madam and the little lady were not as rumored, they were gone in Tongzhou.

"Where's the eldest son?" As he walked in, supporting Chen Shi, Chanyi asked.

"The eldest son is on duty, you can only go home when you are united."

Chan Yi nodded and helped Mrs Meng enter the house and settle down. At noon, let the cook make some appetizers at will, and after eating it, she instructed Mingyu Mingcui and others to open the cage and pack up the things.

At the same time, he also asked the dark guard to send news to the palace, telling Xiao Ze that he was back.
