When I got out of the small garden, I saw Ziying waiting in the courtyard, and asked with a smile, "Ziying, what's the matter?" ”

"Miss, please hurry up and go with the slave maid, someone has come to the palace, saying that the queen mother announced that you will enter the palace, and the mother is still waiting in the hall."

Ziying calmly saluted Shen Lian, and said softly in her voice, but there was still a trace of anxiety between her eyebrows.

In the palace? Is it because of the dissolution of the marriage? Shen Lian's thoughts turned, and he immediately thought of the most likely thing, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little solemn.

Without saying anything more, he nodded to Ziying and followed her towards the hall.

As soon as Shen Lian walked into the hall, she saw a woman in her fifties wearing a palace robe, with yellowish skin and slender eyebrows and eyes, sitting on the top seat with Lin Ningxiu.

"This is Miss Shen Lian, right? It's really the eighteenth year of the female college that has become more and more beautiful, and she is more iconic than when she was a child. ”

When the grandmother saw Shen Lian coming in, she immediately stood up, looked at Shen Lian with a pair of slender eyes, and said, "The old man's surname is Li, I don't know if Miss Shen still remembers the old body?" "Shen Lian has entered the harem many times when she was a child to treat the queen mother, the queen and other concubines, and this grandmother naturally recognizes her.

"I have seen Mama Li, Mama Li is dignified and generous, and has an outstanding temperament, how can I forget."

Shen Feiling blessed his body, and said with a smile, "This time, there is Mama Lao, I don't know why the Queen Mother summoned Pity?" Although she guessed that it was related to Yin Chen in her heart, she still had to inquire about the specific situation.

"Miss Shen, this matter is a long story, the Queen Mother is still waiting in the palace now, why don't we talk about it on the road."

Mama Li also smiled lightly, but she urged Shen Lian to enter the palace.

"This is very true, how can there be a reason for the Queen Mother and her old man to wait."

Lin Ningxiu also said, "Li'er, go with Mama Li, remember to be cautious in your words and deeds after entering the palace, don't cause more trouble!" Shen Lian and Yin Chen's bet naturally wouldn't let her know, and she thought that the Queen Mother was the same as before, letting Shen Lian enter the palace for treatment, so naturally she wouldn't worry about anything.

"Yes, mother."

Shen Lian responded, and under Lin Ningxiu's send-off, he came to the door with Mama Gu and got into the carriage.

Shen Lian and Mama Li sat opposite each other, the carriage was very quiet, and the sound of the car rolling over on the road could be heard.

In the end, it was Shen Lian who spoke, breaking the silence, "Dare to ask Mama, why did the Queen Mother summon me?" "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, anyway, when the marriage contract is dissolved, she doesn't expect to solve this matter all at once.

It was the Queen Mother who was angry because of this, and she was also mentally prepared.

"Alas, it's not because of Lord Chen."

Mama Li sighed when she heard this, her brows furrowed, and she said very sadly, "Yesterday morning, Prince Chen entered the palace to see the Queen Mother, and I don't know what to say, which made the Queen Mother angry. ”

"The Queen Mother was angry, and let the prince be locked in the side hall, and the prince Chen was also a screw, and since yesterday, he has not dripped, and the grain of rice has not entered, and now he has not eaten or drunk for a day and a night."

The Queen Mother was anxious, but she couldn't persuade Prince Chen, so she just asked the old man to invite Miss Shen into the palace.

The old body estimates that he just wants you to persuade him. ”

"Is there such a thing? Why don't you ask Princess Qin Xue to persuade you? Hasn't Prince Chen always had the best relationship with Princess Qinxue? ”

Shen Lian raised her eyebrows, but she didn't expect Yin Chen to do such a thing.

As for the thing that made the Queen Mother angry, it is estimated that it is the same thing that dissolves the marriage contract.

It's just that she can't figure out the Queen Mother's mind at this time.

It stands to reason that since Yin Chen proposed to break the marriage contract with her, whether the Queen Mother agrees or not, it is a little inappropriate to call her over.

Could it be that the Empress Dowager knew about her bet with Yin Chen, and came to her to ask her about the guilt? Mama Li didn't know that Shen Lian's thoughts were spinning in her heart, so she just sighed again and said, "I have already been invited, not only Princess Qinxue, but Marquis Liu has also been persuaded by him, but no matter who tries to persuade him, it is useless, Prince Chen only said that he wanted the Queen Mother to promise him." ”

"The Queen Mother's temperament is also hard, how could she agree like this, so it's just like that, I don't know what happened to make trouble, Miss Shen, after you entered the palace, you saw the Queen Mother to persuade her, she has always liked you, and also pointed to your marriage contract with Prince Chen, you should be useful when you speak."

Shen Lian responded casually, but secretly said in his heart, isn't this just a marriage contract!

After saying the matter, Mama Li resumed her silence and said nothing all the way.

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, Mama Li handed a sign out, and the guards immediately let them go, until they arrived at the Kunning Palace where the Queen Mother lived, and Shen Lian got out of the carriage with Mama Li.

After Mama Li led Shen Lian to the dormitory, she said, "The Queen Mother has explained, after Miss Shen comes, you can go in directly, and the old body will retire first." ”

After that, he left.

Although Shen Lian came for the first time, Feifei had already told her about the distribution here, but she didn't feel worried, so she raised her feet and walked in.

After Shen Lian walked in, she didn't see the figure of the Queen Mother, but heard the sound of a wooden fish that she hadn't heard for a while, and the sound of "Tuk Tuk" echoed in her ears, which made her think that she was back to Mount Emei for a while.

After calming down, I found that the Queen Mother was kneeling on a futon, and in front of her was a statue of Guanyin, who was closing her eyes at this time, playing with Buddha beads with one hand and tapping the wooden fish with the other, and seemed to be chanting something in her mouth.

Shen Lian didn't bother, nor did he care about the dirty floor, so he knelt down and sat down, closed his eyes, folded his hands, and recited the scriptures silently.

Coming from the 21st century, although she does not have a firm belief in Buddhism, she has recited a lot of Buddhist scriptures under the influence of her master in Mount Emei over the years.

It wasn't until the sound of the wooden fish in his ears stopped that Shen Lian opened his eyes and saluted the Queen Mother, "Pity to see the Queen Mother, Niangniang Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose." ”

"When did you girl be so polite to the mourning family, hurry up."

The Queen Mother walked slowly in front of Shen Lian, a pair of well-maintained white and tender palms stretched out, helped Shen Lian up, and asked with a smile on her charming face.

"How has your master been doing all these years?" Shen Lian stood up straight and replied, "Master, her old man concentrates on worshipping Buddha every day, and she is not stained by the world, and now that I am going down the mountain with my senior brother, I am afraid that her old man will be even more pure." ”

"She has lived a pure life this day, much better than the mourning family."

The Queen Mother sighed softly, and said, "You have been back to the capital for some days, can you still get used to it?" ”

"Thank you for the Queen Mother's concern, although this capital is much more noisy than Mount Emei, but with my father and mother taking care of me, I have a good pity."

Shen Lian lowered her eyebrows and said pleasing to her eyes.

She doesn't know if the Queen Mother is as calm as a storm, although in Feifei's description, the Queen Mother has always been extremely kind to her, but she can't let her guard down.

After all, in this harem, it will be easy for someone to get to the position of the queen mother.

"You girl hasn't been in the palace for a few years, but she has a lot of separation with the mourning family."

The Queen Mother patted Shen Lian's arm and said softly, "The mourning family knows what you are worried about, Chen'er has already mentioned the marriage contract to this palace, and this palace also knows that you also want to cancel this marriage contract, but this palace does not intend to blame you." ”

Shen Lian couldn't help but feel nervous when she heard the Queen Mother mention the marriage contract, even if the Queen Mother said that she didn't blame her, her heart still didn't relax, she just listened to the Queen Mother quietly.

The Queen Mother pulled Shen Lian to sit down on the soft collapse, looked at her and said, "It's a good thing for the mourning family to underestimate you, so I specifically pointed out your marriage with Chen'er, but I didn't expect him to have a quarrel with the mourning family because of this incident." ”

"You also know your temperament, you are soft on the outside and strong on the inside, if you want to be famous in the capital, you are afraid that you are not willing to do it."

Shen Lian immediately said, "Don't you dare. ”

The Queen Mother could say that, but she didn't dare to agree to it.
