Chapter 44: The Gift
Lian Bijue hurriedly got up and saluted, respectfully saying that she would definitely remember the teachings of the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother bowed slightly, turned her head and gestured to Aunt Yun.
Aunt Yun understood, and hurriedly shouted outside the door: "Father-in-law Baoshan." ”
As soon as the words fell, a eunuch who looked to be in his early twenties led several small palace maids in.
"Father-in-law Baoshan has been in the palace for a long time, and he is also very familiar with all palaces. Let him be the chief eunuch of your Qilan Xuan, and there will be a proper person to take care of big and small things, so that I can rest assured. The Queen Mother said slowly.
Baoshan's father-in-law was born handsome, and he was also clever, and he already knew the arrangements of the Queen Mother early on, and understood that he was meeting the new master at this moment. After listening to the introduction of the Queen Mother, she immediately turned around and knelt down to Lian Bijue to salute and greet her.
Lian Bijue is like a mirror in her heart, where is this given to her by the Queen Mother? It's just to keep an eye on her from her residence! But how could she say a "no"?
Not only can't I say it, but I have to thank you a thousand times.
The palace maids who followed Baoshan's father-in-law all carried trays in their hands, and various objects were placed in them, all of which were given to Lian Bijue by the Queen Mother.
Even Bijue knelt down again, and her deferential appearance was simply inspiring.
The Queen Mother waved her hand lazily and sent Lian Bijue and the others away.
After watching everyone leave, Aunt Yun gently pinched the Queen Mother's shoulders and mocked softly: "Queen Mother, look at this jade nobleman, she looks scared, it makes people uncomfortable to look at. I don't know what the Queen Mother thinks, even if she wants to block you, she won't be hungry to find such a person, right? ”
The Queen Mother pursed the corners of her mouth, snorted coldly and laughed: "Are you blind when you are the Queen Mother?" What do you think...... Is there a really honest person in this harem? Hmph, people like Jade Guiren can't be underestimated. I am most tired of a quail-like woman like her in my life, and if I am not careful, I will be deceived by her appearance. ”
"Queen Mother, since you are so worried, why don't you ...... Give her a ride? Aunt Yun said with a gentle smile on her face.
"Don't worry, just like her, I don't think I can make any waves. Besides, the Empress Dowager gave it, no matter what, it must have a reasonable reason.
Moreover, her father is still guarding the border pass, and for the sake of our saints, he can't rush to do it now. The Queen Mother lowered her eyes and gently stroked her hand.
"But, Queen Mother, you are not afraid, in case the Holy Lord really falls in love with this jade nobleman...... That ......"
"Afraid of what? There will not be only such a woman in the end. How many women were there in the harem of the first emperor? How many women did the first emperor like? And finally? ”
The Queen Mother said lightly, the expression on her face was a little trance, and she seemed to remember her past again.
Aunt Yun immediately closed her mouth when she saw the Queen Mother's expression. Whenever the Queen Mother shows such a look, if others are not careful, they will be punished.

Lian Bijue and his party returned to Qilanxuan, and the palace maids and eunuchs greeted them.
Zhu'er, as Lian Bijue's personal palace maid, introduced Baoshan's father-in-law to everyone.
The palace people saluted Baoshan's father-in-law in turn, and Lian Bijue went straight back to the room.
When I returned to the room, I found that there were a lot of medicinal herbs piled up in the room.
"What's going on?" Lian Bijue asked.
A little palace maid who was waiting in the inner courtyard hurriedly replied: "Soon after the noble man left, a little eunuch sent these things over, saying that it was a thank you gift from Prince Chun. The gift list is on the table, and you are invited to order it. ”
Lian Bijue's face was expressionless when she heard this, and she said lightly: "Okay, I know, let's take these to the warehouse first." ”
"Yes." The little palace maid answered and was about to clean up, but even Bijue suddenly stopped the little palace maid again.
"Wait! I'd better see if there's anything that works, so you can leave it there first. ”
