Chapter 275: Returning Dumbfounded
"The Queen Mother praised falsely, the courtiers are not as good as you say. However, if the Queen Mother likes it, the courtiers can often enter the palace to accompany the Queen Mother. ”
Bai Suxin can see what the Empress Dowager Tong means, and now Tuoba Yi has a lot of power, even if she is the empress dowager of a country, she is very jealous of Tuoba Yi.
It was Empress Dowager Tong who deliberately wooed Bai Suxin and let Bai Suxin come to her camp.
"This is the best, it just so happens that this girl Hexi also likes the craftsmanship of the white girl, so she often comes to the palace to sit when she has time." Empress Dowager Tong's eyebrows are kind and kind.
Bai Suxin glanced at the sky and said respectfully: "It's almost noon at this time, are you going to the garden?" Let the courtiers go with you. ”
Empress Dowager Tong smiled and said softly, "No, Miss Bai will go back to dinner." ”
Bai Suxin felt unbelievable, all the daughters came to attend the birthday banquet of the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother didn't plan to appear?
Wouldn't she be the target of public criticism if she summoned her alone like this?
But she is not afraid, those female relatives are afraid that they all know about the Hua family sisters, and they should not come to find trouble again.
Accepting the surprise, Bai Suxin said respectfully and politely: "The courtesy woman retired first." ”
Since Empress Dowager Tong didn't come over, there was no reason for her to stay longer.
"Grandma Sun, send one to the white girl." Empress Dowager Tong commanded.
Bai Suxin was personally sent back to the garden by Grandma Sun.
Seeing Bai Suxin walking back without a trace, and even seeing off the mother next to the Queen Mother, the ladies were inevitably a little dissatisfied in their hearts.
Why is it different from what they imagined?
The Queen Mother actually asked her henchmen to send Bai Suxin over, did she reprimand her?
The county lord of Lile hurriedly walked over and asked anxiously, "Sister Bai, are you okay?" ”
Seeing Bai Suxin shaking his head with a smile, the county lord of Lile breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing this, the ladies were at a loss in their hearts, the Queen Mother summoned Bai Suxin and did not reprimand her, so what was the purpose of the Queen Mother summoning her?
Puzzled, the wife of one of the ministers asked, "Lady Tuoba, I wonder why the Empress Dowager summoned you?" ”
Bai Suxin was about to speak, but she had an idea, she didn't answer the lady's words directly, but walked straight to Feng Qianrui's side and sat down.
"How many of you are unmarried?" Bai Suxin asked slowly.
The ladies were stunned for a moment, and they couldn't figure out what Bai Suxin meant for a while.
What does this have to do with whether they are married or not?
Bai Suxin's face was still calm, she glanced at Feng Qianrui intentionally or unintentionally, and said with a smile: "If you are not married yet, you should prepare early." ”
The lady who asked was relieved, anyway, she was already married, and the matter had nothing to do with her.
But the other girls to be married are not so calm, could it be that the Queen Mother intends to marry them?
In fact, for those noble ladies who live in seclusion, it doesn't matter who they marry.
The difference is that the elders in the family arranged for them, and the queen mother appointed the marriage.
The autonomy of marriage is not something that everyone can be satisfied with.
Compared with the order of her parents, the queen mother's marriage is much more decent, and her life in her in-law's house will be better in the future.
But those noble girls who have sweethearts are naturally much more nervous.
They are afraid of separating from their lovers and marrying people they don't know.
Although they had doubts, they still chose to believe Bai Suxin's words.
After all, in the past year, the Queen Mother has married many girls, and they are also looking at it.
Isn't it that the Queen Mother will continue to marry these unmarried noblewomen?
Bai Suxin smiled faintly, she only said so much, as for the meaning of this, let these people secretly figure it out.
She didn't directly say that it was the Queen Mother who wanted to get married, and all the development was just the speculation of these people.
It's not like she's talking nonsense.
Feng Qianrui's expression was obviously a lot panicked, she was worried that the Queen Mother would suddenly come forward to point out the marriage, and then her marriage with Xue Nan would be yellow.
Feng Qianrui may not have realized that she was pale at this time, and her forehead was covered with beads of sweat the size of beans, as if she was frightened.
And these changes happened to come after Bai Suxin said these words.
Bai Suxin had insight into the change in Feng Qianrui's expression and shouted badly.
Feng Qianrui was so nervous, which was enough to show that she cared about Xue Nan very much.
Bai Suxin felt that she had to make a move as soon as possible, otherwise it would only make the Feng family girl fall deeper and deeper.
However, she is not familiar with Feng Qianrui, and there is Hua Yingni's matter first, I am afraid that if she comes forward to say this directly, Feng Qianrui will suspect her motives, and it will backfire.
Therefore, it is better to go directly to Feng Yushi for this matter.
All the ladies have made up their minds, and when the Queen Mother comes over, they must observe her words and deeds, so as to judge whether the Queen Mother still has the intention of continuing to marry.
Mama Sun suddenly walked to the side of the main seat and announced loudly: "Ladies and girls, the Queen Mother can't pull away today, I'm afraid she won't be able to come." The Queen Mother instructed that all the ladies and girls should eat to their heart's content. ”
As soon as the words fell, except for Bai Suxin, who had already learned about the matter in advance, the rest of the people looked at each other.
Even the county lord of Lile was confused for a while, but it was not good to ask Bai Suxin directly on such an occasion.
Therefore, she had to endure it and ask Sister Bai what happened when she went back.
Without the presence of the Empress Dowager Tong, the congratulatory gifts carefully prepared by the ladies became useless.
They felt that even if the Queen Mother was quite satisfied with the congratulatory gift after seeing it, it was unlikely that she would summon them to the palace again.
I thought that the female dependents who stood out at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet with their outstanding and special gifts were disappointed at this time.
Because of this, these people are a little more jealous of Bai Suxin.
Why did the Queen Mother summon her Bai Suxin alone, what is so good about Bai Suxin, isn't it just luck to marry General Tuoba?
If they can be married by the emperor, they may not be worse off than Bai Suxin.
During the meal, the atmosphere was extremely strange, and those ladies with different thoughts often cast strange glances at Bai Suxin.
Bai Suxin, on the other hand, seemed to be unaware of it, and used her meal with peace of mind.
Although the preparation of meals in this palace is common for safety, the skills of the imperial chef are good, and the taste is still remarkable.
Although the cook lady in Baifu tastes better, she is now living in Tuoba Mansion after all.
At this time, she still wants to taste and taste well, so that the chefs in Tuoba Mansion can also learn hard and make the food more delicious.
That's why she didn't have the time to intrigue with a group of boring female relatives here.
Until the end of the meal, the Empress Dowager Tong did not appear.
Not only that, but these ladies didn't even see any of the noble people in the harem, so they were extremely disappointed.
But the meal was over, and they couldn't be cheeky enough to continue to stay, so they had to return with resentment.
