Chapter 198: The Queen Mother Knows
What Qi Yuan was holding in his hand was Qing Shao's signature, and when the two returned to the palace in the carriage, Qing Shao leaned on Qi Yuan's arms, and Qi Yuan saw what Qing Shao's cuffs were exposed, and he felt that Qing Shao's face was not quite right, so he quietly took the paper.
So Qi Yuan saw the unsigned poem now.
Qi Yuan was a little surprised when he saw this poem, but he felt that it was really accurate, he just wanted to make Qing Shao his queen, so the "Hua Feng" mentioned in the poem was also predicted in advance, but the word "robbery" in the "Emperor Tribulation" made him a little unhappy, how could the matter between him and Qing Shao be described by this word, but he remembered the trance when he saw Qing Shao begging to sign it out, and he knew that Qing Shao must be because of this poem.
However, Qi Yuan still didn't believe in these things, so he didn't feel anything after reading the signature, but he wouldn't give it back to Qing Shao and couldn't throw it away.
Qi Yuan looked at it for a long time, then folded the signature and put it in an envelope, then walked to his dragon bed, stretched out his hand and spun a few night pearls, and then saw a hole peeking out from the side of the bed, Qi Yuan stuffed the envelope inside, and then closed the mechanism again.
After that, Qi Yuan sat back in his chair, and he still had a lot of notes to review.
The next day, Qi Yuan went to Cihe Palace to greet his mother, but he found that his mother's eyes seemed to be very different.
"Did anything happen?" Qi Yuan looked at Empress Dowager Guo squinting her eyes and smiling a little strangely, this kind of look made him really uncomfortable.
Empress Dowager Guo smiled and asked everyone who was waiting in the inner hall to go down, leaving only Mama Zhou.
Qi Yuan suddenly had a feeling of uneasiness when he looked at his mother's appearance, and then he heard Empress Dowager Guo speak: "Do you like the palace maid next to Concubine Yue?" ”
Although Empress Dowager Guo's sentence is a question, it is actually an affirmative sentence, and she seems to be very sure of the answer to this question.
It is impossible for Qi Yuan not to be surprised, after all, he thought that he had concealed this matter well, but he didn't expect it to be known by the Empress Dowager Guo, although it was nothing to be known by his mother, but in the end, it is better to have more than one thing.
"Queen Mother......" Qi Yuan frowned slightly.
Empress Dowager Guo smiled: "You don't need to ask the queen mother how she knows, you just need to answer the queen's question, do you like that Qingshao?" ”
Since Empress Dowager Guo had already asked like this, Qi Yuan could only nod, at this time it seemed that there was no point in him denying it, at least at the critical time, there was more help from the queen mother.
Empress Dowager Guo's smile became brighter and brighter.
In fact, Empress Dowager Guo has always felt very strange, because Qi Yuan's pampering of Concubine Yue was a little too sudden, and Yang Yueshu didn't get much favor when she was Concubine Jing before, so Empress Dowager Guo was a little suspicious. And the reason why she is confirming this now is because of the purse hanging on Qi Yuan's body.
The purse on Qi Yuan's body is very exquisite, it is definitely no less than the craftsmanship of the embroidery girl, if it is usual, it is just that, but the Empress Dowager Guo noticed the exquisiteness of Qi Yuan's purse, and then she saw a purse on Yang Yueshu's body when Yang Yueshu asked for peace today, the two purses are of course completely different in appearance and pattern, but the stitching method is very similar, and it looks like it is from the same person.
Of course, the Empress Dowager Guo didn't think much about it here, she only had the purse embroidered by Yang Yueshu, but she just casually asked before she knew that the purse was embroidered by the palace maid named Qingshao, and the Empress Dowager Guo was stunned at that time.
It is impossible for a concubine to give the palace maid's embroidered purse to the emperor, so the Empress Dowager Guo suddenly realized that what her son liked was the palace maid of Concubine Yue. So everything before made sense, Concubine Yue was clearly a shield, no wonder Qi Yuan was so angry about the poisoning last time, it was because Qing Shao was also poisoned.
Therefore, Empress Dowager Guo understood her son's thoughts, and the previous abnormality could also be explained.
"Since you like her, why don't you include her in the harem?" Empress Dowager Guo was a little puzzled, since she liked it, she would accept a permanent presence or a nobleman, so why bother.
But then Empress Dowager Guo saw Qi Yuan shake, and then muttered for a while before speaking......
"What!" Empress Dowager Guo broke the teacup in her hand with a miss, and looked up at Qi Yuan in some shock.
If it weren't for Empress Dowager Guo who felt that she was not too old, she would have to wonder if her ears were deaf or had auditory hallucinations, her son Qi Yuan actually wanted to make a palace maid the queen, this is simply impossible, there has never been such a precedent in the royal family.
"So, I'm going to set a precedent like that." Qi Yuan glanced at the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, and then the Queen Mother looked at the Queen Mother Guo.
Empress Dowager Guo felt really stunned, it was enough for a palace maid to seal a low position, and it was impossible to be a queen.
"Do you really like her?" Empress Dowager Guo was a little puzzled, after so many years, there was no concubine in the palace who could go to Qi Yuan's heart, but she didn't expect to be a palace maid in the end. But Empress Dowager Guo also admitted that the palace maid is indeed extraordinarily good-looking, and her temperament seems to be very good, otherwise Yi'an and Yiqi would not like her so much, so the palace maid is indeed good.
Qi Yuan nodded affirmatively when he heard Empress Dowager Guo's doubts: "Queen Mother, in the future, my son must be born by Qing Shao, and she will become my only queen." ”
Hearing Qi Yuan's words, Empress Dowager Guo looked at his face and felt how serious her son was.
"That's it, if you like it, I don't care about you." Empress Dowager Guo said helplessly, "However, for the time being, you still don't want others to know about Qingshao." ”
Qi Yuan nodded, of course he knew this, so he was not prepared to let others know about Qing Shao now.
Seeing that Qi Yuan was rarely so sad about a woman, in fact, Empress Dowager Guo was still very happy, because it proved that the ice in her son's heart had begun to melt.
Now that she knows, of course Empress Dowager Guo will not stop anything. That's fine.
"I think you'd better find a way to hide this purse, otherwise it will be a bad thing if it is seen again." Empress Dowager Guo thought of this purse and reminded.
Qi Yuan nodded, he only knew that he would think of a way when he went back in a while, and now was not the time to expose this matter. (To be continued.) )
