Chapter 53
The day after Tao Mi'er moved into Afang Palace, the Queen Mother summoned her.
This is the first time that Tao Mier has been summoned by the Queen Mother alone. Tao Mier said that it was really not too honored!
She knew in her heart that it would naturally not be a good thing for the Queen Mother to find her after she was out of the limelight.
Sure enough, when she entered the Tianji Palace, the palace maid who led the way led her to a sunny clearing suddenly stopped, turned around and said to her with a smile: "The Queen Mother is still resting, please wait here for a while." β
When Tao Mi'er heard this, she instantly understood what the Queen Mother meant-a little palace maid didn't dare to take it upon herself to dry her in the sun.
The Queen Mother gave her, the new favorite concubine, a dismount, but she couldn't help it.
Should she be glad that the Queen Mother didn't let her kneel and wait?
However, the autumn sun is milder, and she probably won't have a problem standing under the sun for an hour, at most she will sweat a little.
Tao Mi'er thinks that this dismount can't be regarded as a dismount, but others don't think so. Chun Shuyi, who happened to come out of the Queen Mother, stood in the shady verandah and gloated: "My favorite sister is delicate and expensive, why is she standing alone in the sun?" β
Chun Shuyi wanted Tao Mi'er to admit that she was punished by the Queen Mother.
How can Mommy make Chun Shuyi happy? She looked up at the red circle of light above Chun Shuyi's head as if unintentionally, and said calmly: "The concubine is bathing in the sun." β
Then he looked at Chun Shuyi's belly with a worried expression: "Sister Chun is now a real noble person, and if she doesn't stay in her own palace, what if she is collided by a slave who doesn't have long eyes?" β
Chun Shuyi's mood immediately turned bad. She is now very sensitive and emotional, and when she heard Tao Mi'er's words, she immediately thought that Tao Mi'er was ill towards her stomach.
Chun Shuyi is not very happy to run around now, but she has been serving by the Queen Mother's side for the past two years, if she doesn't even touch the threshold of Tianji Palace because she is pregnant, the Queen Mother may not know what she will think of her.
Yan zhΓ²ng should say that her past filial piety was all for show.
How could Chun Shuyi let such a thing happen. And she has two children under her knees, and she has a lot of experience in pregnancy, so she is confident that she can give birth safely.
"Basking in the sun and running to the Queen Mother's Palace, it's really funny to pet my sister." Chun Shuyi suppressed the depression in her heart, covered her hooked mouth with a fan, and dialed the problem back to Tao Mi'er.
Chun Shuyi must let Tao Mi'er suffer a secret loss today, Xu felt that what she said was not straightforward enough, she added: "I don't know how to go farther in the sun, bad luck!" β
It is clearly said that Tao Mi'er will get sunburned, which will bring bad luck to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother believes in these superstitious things the most, if Tao Mi'er is really faint here, she will definitely treat Tao Mi'er as a broom star in her heart.
Tao Mi'er only thought that Chun Shuyi was barking, pulled the hair hanging from her ears, and replied with a smile: "The concubine basks in the sun at the order of the Queen Mother." β
It turned out that it was made difficult by the Queen Mother, and when Tao Mier said this, it became a glorious thing.
Moreover, she was ordered to bask in the sun, and Chun Shuyi said that she was unlucky, didn't she indirectly talk about the queen mother.
Chun Shuyi also understood that she was not good at making things difficult for Tao Mi'er, who couldn't get in the oil and salt, so she waved her sleeves to leave Tao Mi'er with a sneer, and left with elegant steps: "In this case, this palace will not disturb the pet Ji to bask in the sun." οΌ
"Congratulations to Chun Shuyi. Tao Mi'er said that she was congratulating, and her actions did not fall behind, and she gave Chun Shuyi a standard blessing. It didn't seem to care at all about Chun Shuyi's sneer before leaving.
As the saying goes, a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water. Tao Mi'er is now the public enemy of all harem women, and she is not afraid that Chun Shuyi will look at her a little more unpleasantly.
The time of "penalty station" is always boring, and Tao Mi'er sent Chun Shuyi away, and simply chatted with 631631 in her mind to pass the time.
The Queen Mother didn't know if she had forgotten that Tao Mi'er was still standing outside, and Tao Mi'er was sweating and her underwear was still not seen by her.
Mommy began to consider the possibility of going back directly.
She is now a favorite concubine, and being willful seems to be in line with her identity.
But...... If the emperor hadn't given her such a capricious right......
She was hesitating when the palace maid appeared.
"Pet the master, the queen mother is invited." is not the one who received the peach honey, but the red willow who is serving the queen mother closely.
"......" Tao Mi'er didn't speak, she felt that she needed to save some strength to deal with the Queen Mother. She wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead and tried her best to keep up with the pace of the palace maid gracefully.
It's just that Hongliu doesn't know whether it's intentional or unintentional, and she brings Momier faster and faster, almost making Momyr unable to maintain the standard walking posture of the harem.
Tao Mi'er sighed in her heart, Hongliu did this, and the Queen Mother was afraid that there was a trick waiting for her.
"Empress Dowager Jin'an." Peach honey is blessed.
The hair around her ears didn't look particularly beautiful because of the sweat sticking to her cheeks, but fortunately she didn't smell of sweat, at most the peach fragrance was stronger than usual.
"Can you get used to living in Afang Palace?" The Queen Mother didn't call Taomier, so she let Taomier stand on her knees.
"Back to the Queen Mother's words, get used to it." Tao Mi'er answered the Queen Mother's question concisely.
The Queen Mother's question sounded a bit of the calm before the storm.
"It's like a stuffy gourd." The Queen Mother looked at Tao Mi'er, her brows furrowed slightly, obviously dislike Tao Mi'er's answer. "How does the mourning family remember that the emperor likes to be empathetic?"
Tao Mi'er assured that just when the Queen Mother said that she was understanding, she heard the Queen Mother's cold snort. Is it true that the woman who snatched her son is unforgivable?
At such times, the wisest choice is not to speak. Tao Mi'er looked at her nose and nose, and pretended that she didn't hear the Queen Mother's words.
The Queen Mother also stopped talking, holding the teacup and drinking tea calmly, and standing there in a difficult posture with Tao Mi'er. It wasn't until Tao Mi'er's legs couldn't stop shaking that she spoke again: "Where have you learned the etiquette of the pet concubine?" β
The hair on the ears of Tao Mi'er didn't look particularly beautiful because it was stained with sweat on her cheeks, but fortunately she didn't smell of sweat, at most the peach fragrance was stronger than usual. And because she squatted for too long, her blessings became nondescript.
So the Queen Mother didn't find fault with her at the beginning, not to let her go, but to wait for her here?
βββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Tao Mi'er was still in a trance when she left Tianji Palace, and her ears kept repeating the words of the Queen Mother: "If you want to live longer, don't do these things that you don't know anymore." There is no room for arrogant women in the harem. β
At that time, the Queen Mother's eyes seemed as if she had gained insight into what the emperor wanted to do.
The Queen Mother may be well-intentioned, but Tao Mi'er has promised the emperor to be a favorite concubine who kills all directions, so she can't back down.
And...... Who would have thought that the Queen Mother tossed her all morning, just to stuff someone around her? Tao Mi'er helplessly glanced at the red aunt who was following her, and sighed in her heart.
I don't know what the Queen Mother means - if it's really like the rhetoric given by the Queen Mother, Tao Mi'er has a bad appearance and is not polite, so let Aunt Hong's in-law β‘β‘ her. Tao Mi'er didn't believe it, wasn't it the Queen Mother who tossed her so wolf!
The Queen Mother gave the red marriage to Tao Mi'er, and Tao Mi'er couldn't really put the red marriage by her side, she found a seat that looked quite serious, but usually couldn't touch private affairs to the red marriage, and let the two of them watch carefully, so that the red marriage could stay in her Afang Palace.
"Biqing prepares water." As soon as Tao Mi'er entered the main hall, she couldn't help but let Biqing prepare water.
As the favorite concubine of the fourth grade, two first-class palace maids have been added to the Taomier Palace, and now Biqing is already a first-class palace maid. Since being promoted to a first-class palace maid, Biqing has become more diligent in doing things, and Tao Mi'er is more and more comfortable with it, and many things are subconsciously ordered to do it.
"Yes." Bi Qing blessed the body, commanded the third-class palace maid to carry hot water, and went to fetch the jasmine flowers that Tao Mier used to bathe.
Peach Mill has always entered the inner room first, stripped off her clothes to only her belly pocket and outer skirt, and then waited for a bath, and today is no exception. But there was a little surprise today.
The emperor popped up out of nowhere.
He didn't come in through the doorway, but sat at the small round table in the inner room. It was a hidden location, and the light yì was not visible.
"Mi'er......" The low, magnetic and lazy voice is like affection, and the most intimate whisper in the world comes into Taomier's ears with the flow of air. At that time, Tao Mier had already undressed and was ready to enter the water.
Honey was so startled that she almost didn't slip into the bucket.
"The Emperor...... The emperor ......" Tao Mi'er took two seconds to judge who the man who spoke, and then turned around and smiled stiffly at Hua Xijin.
The Emperor's eyes were fixed on Honey, and he walked closer to Honey as he untied. His gaze was so deep that he almost brought Mommy into an endless whirlpool.
Tao Mi'er sat softly in the bathtub, her eyes flowing, and she met Hua Xijin's eyes......
Four eyes to each other, one glance for ten thousand years.
She heard him say, "I'll help you ......"
The water temperature gradually rises, and the fog in the bathtub is hazy, and only the water is splashing, and the room is a mess.
At the end of the hour, the emperor hugged the peach honey and slept together.
"What is the Queen Mother looking for you today?" Hua Xijin smoothed Tao Mi'er's hair with a match, squinted and asked.
Tao Mi'er was extremely tired at this time, and she couldn't wait to fall asleep immediately, and at this moment she was fighting hard to deal with the emperor's question: "I don't know, the Queen Mother gave it to Aunt Hong's sister-in-law for me." β
She hadn't forgotten that she was going to tell Emperor SΓΉ about the red marriage, and she couldn't be expected to explain it in detail.
The emperor didn't intend for her to explain, and muttered, "I will solve it, you just have to do your own thing." β
The task he gave to Tao Mi'er was to provoke as many women in the harem as possible, and then find an excuse for the emperor to deal with them when he was about to do something to a certain family or was in the process of doing it.
"Hmm......" Peach Mi'er couldn't hold it anymore, and smashed her pink lips twice and fell asleep. The Emperor can choke her today.
Blushing as she thinks back to the bathtub that has been cleaned up and can no longer be used, Mommy suspects that she will have a nightmare tonight.
Hua Xijin kissed the forehead of the person in her arms dotingly, and also closed her eyes to rest.
