Chapter 47: Marriage
"Miss Wei, the Queen Mother passed you into the palace."
Early in the morning, someone came to the palace, Wei Xiyue was puzzled, but it was not easy to refuse, so she could only say: "Wait a while, Xiyue will clean up." β
The father-in-law nodded, "Then Miss Wei, hurry up, we still have to go back to the palace to restore our lives." β
Half an hour later, Cining Palaceβ
"Courtiers see the Queen Mother."
The Queen Mother stretched out her hand and helped her weakly, "No courtesy." β
"I don't know why the Queen Mother came to Xiyue today?" Wei Xiyue held back all the way, and finally hesitated again and again before deciding to ask, but as soon as the words came out, Wei Xiyue felt rude, and hurriedly saluted and pleaded guilty: "Xiyue knows that this is abrupt, but ...... Xiyue thinks that everything has a reason. β
The Queen Mother smiled slightly, this Wei Xiyue is really a little interesting.
If she is really bold, maybe this Wei Xiyue may be a good girl.
"Miss Wei, please take a seat." The Queen Mother said kindly to Wei Xiyue, and then said to the maid beside her, "Look at the seat." β
Wei Xiyue didn't feel anything and sat down.
"Thank you Empress Dowager, but Empress Dowager hasn't answered Xiyue's question yet."
"Let's not talk about this for now, the mourning family asks you a question."
Wei Xiyue glanced at the Queen Mother suspiciously, but still didn't say anything.
"The mourning family is very curious, what kind of people are my grandchildren in your eyes."
The Queen Mother was not curious about this, but about what kind of person could attract her two imperial grandsons at the same time.
"How many princes?" Wei Xiyue hesitated for a moment before slowly speaking.
"The third prince is calm and steady, and it will be very safe to be with him, but the third prince is a bit unapproachable. Well...... The words of the eleventh prince are innocent, which will make Xiyue think about her younger brother who is still young, but sometimes she will be very naΓ―ve, and she will want to protect him. As for the Four Princes, Xiyue is not familiar with them, however, Xiyue does not like the Four Princes. β
The Queen Mother didn't expect Wei Xiyue to say something about it, and she didn't say flattering things because they were princes.
The Queen Mother smiled slightly, "Haha, Miss Wei really has a bold temperament, and she is very happy to mourn her family." β
Wei Xiyue didn't expect to be praised suddenly, just smiled faintly.
"Ahem."
"Queen Mother, are you alright?" Wei Xiyue frowned and hurriedly walked nervously to the Queen Mother's side, and then took out a small medicine bottle that she was carrying.
"Queen Mother, this is a good medicine for cough. On weekdays, my mother's health is not good, so Xiyue has a personal carry, this medicine has a miraculous effect, and the three of the Queen Mother are effective. β
As he spoke, he went to get tea and served the Queen Mother to drink it.
The Queen Mother smiled with satisfaction, and then beckoned, not knowing that Huo Zeshen, who had been hiding there, came out.
"Well, grandmother, I'm right."
Wei Xiyue looked puzzled, "What's the matter?" β
Huo Zeshen stuck out his tongue, "That's what Sister Xiyue saw." β
"Okay, you Huo Zeshen, you actually ......"
"Okay, Miss Wei, don't blame Xiao Shen, it was the mourning family who asked Xiao Shen to hide first."
Wei Xiyue raised her eyebrows, "So you're testing me?" β
Huo Zeshen heard that Wei Xiyue's tone was wrong, and hurriedly went over to explain, "It's not like this, we didn't mean that, it's just ......"
The Queen Mother laughed, "I'm sorry Miss Wei, the mourning family just wants to see what kind of person this future eleventh princess is." β
"Eleventh Imperial Princess?" Wei Xiyue glanced at Huo Zeshen, "What eleventh imperial concubine." β
The Queen Mother smiled, "Yes, Xiao Shen hasn't told Miss Wei yet, Miss Wei don't worry, the mourning family will issue an order to marry you, and then let Xiao Shen come to the door to propose, there will be no less." β
Wei Xiyue frowned, and refused without thinking about it.
"Empress Dowager Xie is kind, but Xiyue doesn't want to do anything like an eleventh imperial concubine."
The Empress Dowager was furious, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared.
"Wei Xiyue, what do you mean?"
Wei Xiyue didn't take into account Huo Zeshen's mood, after all, she was caught off guard by such a sudden incident, and the Queen Mother also said that she was going to give her a marriage, which made her feel unhappy.
"Back to the Queen Mother, what Xiyue means is that Xiyue is from a humble background and is not worthy of the eleventh prince. disappointed the queen mother's good intentions, and asked the queen mother to forgive her sins. β
"Wei Xiyue, don't be ignorant." The Queen Mother was obviously annoyed by Wei Xiyue, her face turned white with anger, and Huo Zeshen hurriedly went over to appease the Queen Mother.
"Alright, grandmother, don't be angry."
The Queen Mother frowned, how could she say that she wouldn't be angry if she wasn't angry?
"Enough, don't intercede for her, I just don't know what to do when I look at the girl, it's her blessing that our royal family likes her, but she still doesn't appreciate it like this."
Wei Xiyue was not afraid, but said to Huo Zeshen: "Eleventh Prince, indeed, Xiyue admires you very much, and thinks that the Eleventh Prince is different from others, so she is willing to have fun with the Eleventh Prince or something." But......" Wei Xiyue paused, "I didn't expect the eleventh prince to have this kind of affection for Xiyue, please redeem Xiyue for not being able to obey." β
"Sister Xiyue, I ......"
"The Eleventh Prince and I could have been friends for life, but it would never have been that kind of relationship."
Wei Xiyue has already picked out her words very clearly, she has no meaning to Huo Zeshen, and she can't mean anything.
Huo Zeshen couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable when he heard Wei Xiyue's words, he drooped his face, but the Queen Mother wanted to open her mouth to punish Wei Xiyue again, but he still took the first step in front of Wei Xiyue.
"Grandmother, don't punish Sister Xiyue."
The Queen Mother frowned, "You go over, don't stop me." β
Huo Zeshen shook his head, "Grandmother, I promised Sister Xiyue, we will be friends for life, grandmother, don't embarrass Sister Xiyue." β
"Zeshen! Why are you suffering? As long as you like it, the mourning family will definitely try their best to promote the marriage. The Queen Mother sighed.
"Even if the Queen Mother insists on giving marriage, I will not agree."
The Queen Mother sneered, "Is this something you don't want to agree to?" β
"That's it! Grandmother, Sister Xiyue, don't talk about it! Huo Zeshen roared angrily, he understood the temper of the Queen Mother, if she really made the Queen Mother angry, it would not only be Wei Xiyue, but even the entire Wei family would be implicated, and he knew Wei Xiyue better, if she forced Wei Xiyue to do what she didn't want to do, she would rather die than obey.
Since it started because of you, let yourself end it.
Huo Zeshen sighed, and first said to the Queen Mother with kind words: "Grandmother, I am messing around, in fact, I think about it carefully, my feelings for Sister Xiyue are just a younger brother to my sister, and it is not a personal relationship between children and daughters. Grandmother ~ Queen Mother ~ Don't take it to heart, just think Zeshen is joking. β
Then he turned to look at Wei Xiyue, "Sister Xiyue, let's talk about it, we will be friends for life." β
"Nature." Wei Xiyue nodded, "Xiyue's words count. β
In fact, when he heard the Queen Mother say just now that he wanted to do everything he could to get Wei Xiyue married for himself, he was already very moved, but he felt that this was unfair to Wei Xiyue, how could he do such a thing.
So even if he is very moved, he still won't agree to the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother sighed, "Xiao Shen, why are you so troubled?" Is it worth it for a woman? β
"It's worth it, because Sister Xiyue is not only my sister, but also the person who will be a good friend with me for life, grandmother, bosom friends are hard to find, I don't want to lose such a good friend as my sister just like this."
The Queen Mother frowned and sighed again, "You...... I really don't know what's so good about this woman. β
Wei Xiyue raised her eyebrows, "Since the eleventh prince has already said so, then the Queen Mother doesn't need to embarrass Xiyue anymore." β
"That's it, grandmother, just let Sister Xiyue out of the palace, it's not too early." Huo Zeshen breathed a sigh of relief and was finally relieved.
Who knew that the Queen Mother shook her head, and said to Wei Xiyue: "You all sit down first and chat with the mourning family." β
Wei Xiyue nodded, as if nothing had happened.
But after this. The Queen Mother had another evaluation of Wei Xiyue's impression.
In fact, this girl is very good, she dares to be angry and outspoken, and she is broad-minded, if she can't be her granddaughter-in-law, it is also a good choice to stay by her side.
In addition, let her manage Huo Zeshen, maybe she can also manage Huo Zeshen's character.
Thinking of this, the Queen Mother didn't get angry anymore, but chatted with Wei Xiyue.
"Miss Wei, the mourning family wants to know why you don't want to be the eleventh princess so much? You must know that the eleventh princess is glorious and rich, and how many people in the capital want to become the eleventh princess are unwilling, but you are not happy to give you a marriage. β
Wei Xiyue said with a smile: "Xiyue is different from those people, Xiyue has no interest in the position of the eleventh imperial concubine, Xiyue just wants to be safe, take care of her mother and younger brother, and then live a good life." β
The Queen Mother nodded, and then exchanged a few words with Wei Xiyue to send Wei Xiyue back to the Wei Mansion, and ordered someone to send a lot of supplements and Liu's body supplement.
Wei Xiyue originally wanted to shirk it, but Huo Zeshen also said on the side that she should take it back and take good care of the Liu family, so Wei Xiyue agreed to accept it reluctantly.
After today's incident, the Queen Mother also looked at Wei Xiyue more and more pleasantly, and often asked Wei Xiyue to come into the palace to talk to her and chat.
So Wei Xiyue became a frequent visitor in the palace, and her bold temperament and occasional playfulness made the Queen Mother happy. In this way, Wei Xiyue became a celebrity in front of the Queen Mother.
The so-called celebrities have a lot of rights and wrongs in front of them, and within a few days, because of the queen mother's attention to Wei Xiyue, it attracted the attention of many concubines, all of whom wanted to win over the heroine, and wanted the heroine to say a few good words in front of the queen mother, so that her life in the palace could be better, maybe she could also be appreciated by the queen mother, and then if you are lucky, you can be lucky by the emperor.
But Wei Xiyue has never been in the mood to deal with them, because she doesn't want to get involved in the affairs of the palace.
Until one day-
