Ningshou Palace's silence passed for about half an hour, and in this half an hour, Nie Shuyao was quietly looking at them, and Empress Dowager Zhang's mother and son were also looking at Nie Shuyao, their eyes were more direct, just squinting at them.

This low-pressure atmosphere made the foreheads of the siblings begin to sweat, and Nie Shuyao reached out and quietly shook the nervous Nie Tianxi's hand, comforting him in this way.

Who knew that this small action made Empress Dowager Zhang purse her lips and laugh, and said: "It is worthy of being sisters and brothers who grew up together, and your relationship is really good." ”

Nie Shuyao hurriedly replied: "The Queen Mother has won the award, the courtier's brother is still young, and it is inevitable that she will be a little nervous when she sees the holy face for the first time, if you are rude, please forgive the emperor and the Queen Mother!" ”

Anyway, let's take insurance for Nie Tianxi first.

When Nie Tianxi also wanted to get up and say something, Empress Dowager Zhang waved her hand and said, "Sit, hurry up and sit down for the mourning family, you kid is too outward." ”

Nie Shuyao was stunned, what kind of rhythm is this? Isn't it here to be criticized today?

Empress Dowager Zhang glanced at Emperor Zhengde, who glanced at Yu Zhong and said, "Yu Zhong, you call the eldest prince first." Then take away all these irrelevant things in the house, and no one is allowed to be within ten meters of this temple. ”

Yu Zhong struck a spirit, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "The slave and maid receive the order." ”

Not long after, the eldest prince Zhu Cong walked in with Zhu Xian and followed Yu Zhong, and when he saw Nie Shuyao, he smiled at him.

Only this small signal made Yu Zhong's attitude towards Nie Shuyao cautious again, and he took the palace maids and eunuchs in the house out of the main hall.

The door of the main hall was gently hidden, and all the palace maids and eunuchs were ten meters away. Only Yu Zhong stood alone near the door, so that Emperor Zhengde could call him.

He looked at the sky and couldn't think of what the Queen Mother would say to Nie Shuyao's sister and brother. I don't want to think about it. Those who know a lot in this palace are not going to end well.

Yu Zhong is not much older than Zhengde, and almost all the old eunuchs who followed the first emperor are dead. And the palace maid doesn't know how many stubbles have been changed.

Empress Dowager Zhang's attitude made Nie Shuyao puzzled, and took the initiative to ask, "I don't know what the Empress Dowager commands?" ”

"Alas!" Empress Dowager Zhang sighed and said, "Emperor, give me that jade pendant." ”

Emperor Zhengde handed the jade pendant to the Empress Dowager Zhang and asked, "The queen mother ......." ”

Empress Dowager Zhang looked at Zhengde, then at the two brothers Zhu Cong, and said softly: "You all keep this matter in your hearts today." When you go out of this temple, you will forget about the mourning family. ”

Nie Shuyao and Nie Tianxi suddenly became nervous, and Nie Shuyao hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, we still avoid it well." ”

"Silly boy. This is about your brother and sister, what to avoid? Empress Dowager Zhang shook her head and said, "Shu Yao will show the jade pendant you brought on your body to the mourning family." ”

Nie Shuyao's mind immediately sounded a "buzzing" sound, it turned out that Empress Dowager Zhang had already knew.

Looking at Empress Dowager Zhang's expression again, she smiled slightly. A face of kindness. Nie Shuyao obediently took out the jade pendant.

"Sister......." Nie Tianxi tugged at her sleeve, worry flashing on her face.

Nie Shuyao smiled: "Don't worry, the Queen Mother already knows." ”

Empress Dowager Zhang smiled and said, "Alas, this matter has to start from twenty years ago. ”

As he spoke, he took Nie Shuyao's jade pendant, and the two jade pendants could be combined when they came together, but Nie Shuyao's jade pendant was a little smaller than the one in the hands of Empress Dowager Zhang.

The concave and convex places of the two jade pendants can be chimeed with each other, so that Nie Shuyao's identity is obvious.

After the Empress Dowager Zhang separated the two, she returned what belonged to Nie Shuyao to her. said: "This jade is carved from a whole piece of rare and superb jade, which has the effect of being warm in winter and cool in summer. The first emperor gave the jade pendant to the mourning family and Concubine Wen Shu respectively. In the eyes of the first emperor, there were so many people in the harem, and only the mourning family and Concubine Wen Shu made him worry about him.

However, he felt more guilty about Concubine Wen Shufei. Later, this jade pendant was given to each of our children. Later, something happened in the palace, and the palace where Concubine Wen Shu was located was burned to ashes, and everyone thought that the little princess and Concubine Wen Shu had been buried in the fire, but the mourning family and the first emperor knew very well that the little princess was not dead. As for Concubine Wen Shu...... She was also a poor person, and took the risk of sending off the little princess and got into the fire. ”

Speaking of this, everyone present looked at Nie Shuyao.

Emperor Zhengde muttered, "Lady Wudinghou is really my only sister? ”

The first emperor also had a few children, but in the end, only Zhengde and Nie Shuyao in front of him survived.

Nie Shuyao actually knew her identity for a long time, but she was still a little shocked when she heard this from the mouth of Empress Dowager Zhang. Stunned, he said, "How is this possible?" Xi'er and I were raised by our stepmother, and we always thought that we were children that our parents didn't want. ”

Emperor Zhengde preemptively said: "No, no, Concubine Wen must have had an unspeakable addiction to send you out." The queen mother, the father should not know that she is still alive. ”

Hearing this, Empress Dowager Zhang sighed faintly, "Shu Yao, come, come to the mourning family." ”

Nie Shuyao was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to look at Nie Tianxi, who nodded and smiled at her. Only then did she walk to Empress Dowager Zhang's side.

"You were brought up by Concubine Nie Xian, how you have spent all these years, the mourning family knows. It's just that the emperor said that this is the freedom that Concubine Wen Shu risked his life to ask for you, and he had to bear to see you suffer among the people, fortunately, Concubine Nie Xian's temper is not very good sometimes, but her upbringing is still excellent. Your father knows that you are doing well, and he is relieved. When Empress Dowager Zhang said this, there were tears in her eyes.

"It's ......." Maybe it's the nature of father and daughter, Nie Shuyao's heart was also a little blocked at this time, she knew that it was a sad feeling.

Emperor Zhengde was very happy, and said with a smile: "I also have a sister, haha!" I will draft a decree tomorrow and declare Shu Yao as the eldest princess of our Ming Dynasty. ”

Hearing this, Zhu Xian was the happiest, he got up and took Nie Shuyao's hand and said, "Auntie, you are really Xian'er's aunt." Imperial grandmother, is this true? ”

Empress Dowager Zhang smiled and said, "Yes, the mourning family can finally find a daughter for the first emperor." ”

In addition to shock, Nie Shuyao also had doubts in her heart, since Empress Dowager Zhang said that her journey from childhood to adulthood was under the eyes of the royal family, why did she admit it at this time?

She didn't believe it. Maybe I can help Empress Dowager Zhang and Zhu Cong now, besides, it was Concubine Wen Shufei who risked her life to beg for it in the people, so she dragged herself back alive, is it really good? Isn't this against the will of the first emperor?

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother." Nie Shuyao didn't feel happy because of Emperor Zhengde's words, and immediately knelt down and pleaded: "Shuyao doesn't want the title of eldest princess!" Shu Yao grew up in the folk since she was a child, and she was afraid that if her majesty decreed it, those ministers would immediately kneel down and die. Wouldn't this cause unnecessary trouble to His Majesty?

Shu Yao is accustomed to the life of the people, and now she is Mrs. Wudinghou, who has no worries about food and clothing, and she doesn't want Her Majesty and the Queen Mother to bother with Shu Yao. If you can, please give Shu Yao the privilege of not kneeling when she sees a nobleman in the palace or an official of the court in the future! ”

After speaking, she gritted her teeth and leaned over again at the Queen Mother and Emperor Zhengde. (To be continued......)
