Chapter 39 The Empress Dowager Summons Her Fiancee

Qin Palace, inside the Cixiang Palace.

This is the palace where the Empress Dowager lives, far away from the court, and away from the emperor's three palaces and six courtyards.

The current Empress Dowager, the biological mother of His Majesty the Emperor.

After the emperor came to power, she lived in the Palace of Kindness.

On weekdays, it would be difficult for anyone to enter the Mercy Palace without the Queen Mother summoned. Today, the door of the Mercy Palace was completely opened, and it seemed that someone had come.

A burst of laughter came from the depths of the Mercy Palace.

The kind laughter carries a kind of majesty that has settled down over the years, but it is much more restrained and low-key.

But, even so, none of the people who came to greet the gentleman in the Palace of Kindness dared to provoke the owner of this voice easily. Even Concubine Jiang Gui, who was favored by the emperor, could only hide her lips and smile at this time, carefully paying attention to the change in the expression of the person in the main seat.

In the main hall, except for Gong E, there are only four people.

One of the old women was sitting at the throne. Although her facial features were already old, it was difficult to hide her former elegance. She was dressed in splendid robes, embroidered with gold thread on the phoenix bird totem, which symbolizes the female family members of the royal family. The bun on her head did not have much decoration, but was decorated with some simple but valuable jade hairpins. Above the tiger's mouth on her left hand, there is also a string of Buddhist beads carefully carved from Bodhi seeds.

Behind her, stood an old nanny, with a faint smile on her face, quietly accompanying her.

From this stop, you can see what status this old lady has in front of the most honorable woman in Qin.

Below the Queen Mother's left hand, two women sat upright. Judging from their similarities in appearance and age, they are a mother-daughter relationship.

However, compared to the natural coquettishness between her mother's brows, the noble girl was more reserved and noble and lonely.

"Queen Mother, don't make fun of Yao'er. She is still young, and I want to keep her with me for a few more years." Jiang Guifei held a silk silk, covered her lips and chuckled, her expression full of coquettish feelings.

I'm afraid, in front of the child, pretending to act like a spoiled child to the Queen Mother will also be done by Jiang Guifei, who is known for her charm.

Regarding her mother's performance, Princess Changle who was sitting beside her, Qin Yiyao didn't show much expression. The calm between her brows seemed to be not her.

The bead in the Queen Mother's hand turned gently, and laughed at Jiang Guifei's words and said, "What's still young? I am a thirteen-year-old girl in Qin, and Yao'er is fifteen years old. She is a big girl. In order to wait for that brat from the Mu family to be weak, I'm afraid you're going to carry your grandson."

The corners of Jiang Guifei's mouth froze, and she glanced at her daughter secretly, but she saw that she was calm like a beautiful statue, without the shy expression that her daughter's family should have after hearing about her marriage, and her eyes darkened.

Fortunately, the Queen Mother didn't seem to pay attention to this, but said to herself: "Calculate the time, then the Mu family boy, I am afraid that he will be crowned soon."

She seemed to be talking to herself, as if she was asking someone else.

The mammy, who is used to knowing the queen mother well, hurriedly leaned over slightly and whispered: "Yes, Lord Mu will be weak in another year." Weak crown is an adult, so the marriage between Mu's residence and the royal family back then, It should be on the agenda.

The empress dowager nodded her head in disbelief, with a plan in mind.

In her opinion, Mu Qingge was the only one left in the Mu family's bloodline, and Mu Qingge was a playboy. He inherited the Mu family and was doomed to fail. Now, the royal family married the noble princess into the Mu family, not to mention that the blood of the Mu family will be swallowed up by the blood of the royal family in the future, the reputation alone is good. Why bother to use the means to calculate and cause a fishy?

After thinking about it in her heart, the Queen Mother looked at Qin Yiyao who said nothing. That small face like a plate, took all the advantages of her parents, she was as charming as a flower, as beautiful as a rosy glow, and it could be called the beauty of the world. What is even more rare is that her innate noble and arrogant air makes her more attractive than ordinary women.

It would not be a loss for them to betrothed such a person to the scoundrel of the Mu family.

The queen mother sighed in her heart, and asked Qin Yiyao with a loving smile, "Our Yaoer is really getting better and better as she grows, and that kid in the Mu family is really lucky."

"The grandmother has won the prize." Being called by the queen mother, Qin Yiyao still looked indifferent, but just replied according to the palace ceremony.

The perfunctory and indifference in this tone made Jiang Guifei feel a little anxious. For fear that her daughter's attitude would offend the queen too much, the queen mother gave her small shoes in the palace.

So, she said angrily: "Yao'er, why did you talk to the queen mother? Have you forgotten the rules I taught you?"

"Yao'er dare not forget." Qin Yiyao lowered her eyes, and the tone of her answer was still neither humble nor arrogant.

"Okay, okay, it's not a big deal. Yao'er's indifferent temperament is not something that Aijia only knows about today. I asked you to come here because today the emperor announced the Mu family boy to enter the palace." The queen mother waved her hand and said. .

Jiang Guifei was stunned after hearing this, and secretly said in her heart: The emperor announced that Mu Qingge would enter the palace, why did I not receive the news?

And Qin Yiyao, who had always been indifferent like an outsider, finally had a subtle reaction at this moment. The long and butterfly-like eyelashes trembled slightly.

Before waiting for Jiang Guifei to speak, she heard the queen mother say: "Aijia has already sent someone to call the Mu family boy over. I heard that this boy suffered some hardships in the past. You two, one is the future mother-in-law of the family, One is the future wife, and you should take good care of it today. Especially Yaoer, you and Qingge grew up together, but after the difference between men and women, they gradually became estranged. You will marry into the Mu family sooner or later. The deeper the relationship between husband and wife, the happier you will be in the future. Today, you will accompany Qingge around the palace, and when he leaves the palace, you will accompany him out of the palace, and then you will return to your Changle Princess Mansion Bar."

There is no room for resistance, the Queen Mother has already made her decision.

The laws of the Qin state stipulated that when the prince and princess became adults, they would move out of the palace to build a mansion. Now, the only one who can live in the palace is the seventh prince, who is only nine years old.

"Queen Mother, this... Yao'er hasn't come to the door after all..." Jiang Guifei was not happy with her daughter's marriage. In her opinion, she can use Mu Qingge through this marriage, but she can't lose her daughter. There should be a better place for her daughter.

For example, marrying other countries in exchange for the support of her neighbors. Or, use her beauty and talent to help her attract the wise men from all over the world.

In short, how could her daughter let a dude who couldn't help take advantage of her?

However, the Empress Dowager ignored it and said, "Okay, in this world, who doesn't know who Yao'er's future husband-in-law is? How many people can't envy the feelings of the two little ones? How many tongues will they chew?"

After that, she looked directly at Qin Yiyao with wise eyes, and asked, "Yao'er, do you know what your grandmother said?"

Qin Yiyao pursed her lips, her eyelashes trembled a few times before she nodded and said, "Yaoer knows."

"That's good, she's my grandmother's good granddaughter, the princess of Qin." The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction.
