Li Muchen's words that day are still in his ears.

Including the temperature of his fingertips and the warm breath.

Did he already perceive something?

Du Wanruo put down the hand that touched his ear, not daring to think deeply.

The only thing she can do now is to keep to herself during this time and try to avoid private meetings with King Wei again.

may be because she is about to leave the cabinet, and the prime minister's wife has been in Zhang Luo to marry some time ago, so she neglected to look at her, but in recent days, she has been in her boudoir every day, and she has been staying for most of the day, so it can be seen that the supplies needed for marriage have been almost done.

The mother and daughter, whose blood is thicker than water, can be said to talk about nothing.

The Prime Minister's wife is a woman who attaches great importance to etiquette, and she is very dignified and virtuous outside, so since she was a child, Du Wanruo has never heard her mention the things of her youth.

But when she was about to get married, the wife of the prime minister mentioned her and Du Guoxiang's affairs for the first time.

As she spoke, she looked in one direction as she spoke, as if those distant memories resurfaced in front of her, so much so that she spoke more and more.

Du Wanruo didn't interrupt her, just looking at her happy expression, she knew that those must be extremely good memories.

As a daughter, when she saw her mother like this, she was also happy for her from the bottom of her heart.

Time flies.

The days flickered, and three days later it was the time of the wedding.

Seeing that the big wedding was approaching, Du Wanruo became more and more anxious.

In order not to fall into the hands of others, she has never exchanged letters with King Wei, and every time she has something, she has an interview.

But since Li Muchen's words last time, she was afraid that there would be a mistake in the middle, so she has been politely declining King Wei's invitation, about three times.

Later, the Prime Minister's wife often came to chat with her, and she had no chance to go to the appointment.

For seven days in a row, there was no news from King Wei's side, and she had to think that King Wei had made another plan, and it was not impossible to give her up.

Instead of sitting still, she felt she should do something.

Knock knock knock ~ knock sound.

In the past few days, she has been waking up very late.

It is said that the bride can't be tired on the day, so the family lets her sleep if she can, and the most important thing is to nourish her spirit.

The person who came was the wife of the prime minister, she probably came every day close to lunchtime, and today was surprising, as soon as the sky was bright, she came.

"Mother~"

Du Wanruo hurriedly got up, and at the same time called Cai Ling to change her clothes.

"Don't panic, my mother came here today to sue you, you want to go to the palace today."

Since she entered the palace, she couldn't dress casually, so she asked Cai Ling to change and bring another set of dresses.

Because she was busy dressing, she was worried about the look on her face when she saw the Prime Minister's wife talking.

But when Cai Ling chose the pink dress again, the Prime Minister's wife had already come to her side, pressed the dress, and chose another set of aqua blue clothes to take it personally.

Du Wanruo saw that the color of the clothes was wrong, so he beat a drum in his heart: Could it be ......

"Today is not to see the Queen Mother, but the Queen has summoned you." The Prime Minister's wife dressed her and gave the answer.

Seeing that Du Wan was thoughtful, the wife of the prime minister helped her dress and made her face fine, but she said bitterly, "Child, even if you enter the palace in the future, the queen is the mother of the country, you still have to meet her, although I don't know what she has in mind today, but she doesn't dare to make a mistake at will, you just need to remember, be careful in everything, and remember that you are a member of our Du family." ”

The Prime Minister's wife not only dressed her, but also combed her hair, like a mother who is about to send her son to the battlefield, and personally put on the armor for her son.

It is not unreasonable to think about it to make the Prime Minister's wife attach so much importance to it.

The queen is the emperor's person, and the emperor and the queen mother have always been at odds.

The Queen Mother has been involved in politics, although she has let the emperor preside over the government over the years, but when she encounters major events, she will still be affected by the Queen Mother, so even if she sits on the dragon chair and gets the title of Ninety-Five, the emperor is still a semi-puppet who can't do what he wants.

The Queen Mother loves the prince and intends to support the prince to ascend the throne, thus replacing the emperor.

may be for this reason, the emperor has always disliked the prince.

As a result, the court was divided into two factions, and their Du family naturally stood on the side of the queen mother, who was related by blood, that is, the prince's camp.

is about to get married, and the queen takes advantage of this juncture to claim that as the lord of the six palaces, she should be close to the future emperor's daughter-in-law.

You said that she was not close in the morning, and she was not close in the evening, and there were still three days left before she remembered to meet the prospective crown princess, can it not make people suspicious?

The so-called Tao is different and does not conspire with each other, everyone thinks that this is an undesirable behavior, but she is a queen, and this face still has to be given, and it cannot be said that their Du family is about to have a princess, so they will not take the mother of the country in their eyes.

So even if she was reluctant, Du Wanruo still got on the high bus into the palace.

The Empress Dowager's Enci Palace and the Empress's main palace Jian'an Palace face each other across the wall.

The wall mentioned here is far more than a thin wall of masonry in the simple sense, but a distance across a large group of palaces.

Du Wanruo is still not very familiar with the way to Jian'an Palace, after all, he has been in the palace for more than ten years, and there are only those places that he can frequent.

People in the world always say that the palace is big, but in fact, to put it bluntly, it is the same everywhere after living for a long time.

Follow the chamberlain to stroll under the corridor, and meet three or two palace laves, all of whom bow with their heads bowed, which is a high-level etiquette that only the royal family has.

After they left, they could still hear the whispers of Gong'e in the wind.

"Look, the one in the aqua blue dress is the quasi-princess, what a beautiful person."

"It's a good match for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Who's to say it isn't."

was led to the ground by the chamberlain, and the chamberlain bowed his head and left.

Outside the door, Gong'e was about the same age as her, saluted her, and then said that the queen mother had been waiting inside for a long time, please follow her in.

Du Wanruo bowed her head slightly, and she led the way into a side hall.

Colourful glazed bricks frame a high wall with a lifelike phoenix carved on it, which is the most distinctive decoration of this side hall.

As soon as Du Wanruo entered, she was attracted by it, and after passing the beautiful and clear glass wall, the graceful queen had already stepped down from the main throne and walked gracefully to her.

Gong E stepped back.

Du Wanruo hurriedly curtsied and bowed, bowing her head, and could only see the tips of the queen's shoes.

"From now on, we will all be a family, so we don't have to be formal." The queen kindly gave her a hand, and then pulled her to the inner room, where they sat opposite each other on the soft felt of gold embroidery.

The person serving the tea consciously stepped forward to make fragrant tea, and then heard the queen say with a smile, "The last time we met, the mourning family fell in love with you as soon as they saw you, and today your dress also won my heart. ”

As soon as he came up, he praised fiercely, how dare Du Wanruo just accept it, and hurriedly returned the salute, "Niangniang praises falsely, as if you have one ten-thousandth of you who have the glory of motherhood, it is already flattering to be loved by Niangniang." ”

"Hehe, Xiaozui is really good at talking, the Du family is really a tutor, no wonder the Queen Mother likes you so much." The queen's voice came from above her head, and Xu saw that she hadn't gotten up yet, and said, "You kid, the mourning family is just telling the truth, look at what scares you." ”

Then he stretched out his hand to help Du Wanruo up again, and when she saw her get up, she stood there honestly, and the queen smiled again, "Sit down and talk, otherwise the mourning family will always tilt their heads like this, and their stamina will hurt for several days." ”

When Du Wanruo heard this, he had to sit back in his place again, and then took a sip of hot tea from the teacup in front of him to suppress his shock.

To say that she is not afraid at all now is false.

In my impression, the queen has always been a person who does not smile and will find fault with her at every turn, extremely strict, but now she suddenly became amiable, and smiled at her, and laughed more than once, can it not make people worry.

Du Wanruo couldn't figure out her thoughts, and the whole person was like pins and needles, probably at a loss, so she had to take another sip of the teacup.

The queen stared at her drinking tea for a moment, and a trace of insidiousness crossed her eyes, and seeing that she was almost drunk, she ordered the palace lady on the side to fill it again.

Somehow.

Du Wanruo felt that the more he drank this tea, the more fragrant it became, and the more he drank it, the more thirsty he became.

On the way, the queen seemed to say something to her again, and she couldn't hear it clearly.

Her mind began to wander, and the words drifted into her ears, but she couldn't understand them at all, and her brain began to be unable to think, and she couldn't even tell that there was something wrong with the tea, so she poured it down vigorously until the things in front of her began to distort.
