Chapter 116: Not Present
Yun Feng was also called by the Queen Mother, which surprised Meng Jiao a little.
She could see that the Queen Mother must have arranged this matter early in the morning, and even maybe when she handed over the post to the palace, she had already arranged for Yun Feng to enter the palace.
It's just that what is the intention of the Queen Mother's move?
"This nephew of the mourning family, you should have seen it too."
"What the Queen Mother said is right, when the second son of Yun personally came to the door to ask to marry his cousin, he naturally met."
Meng Jiao stated the facts, but the Queen Mother was worried about this matter.
If it weren't for... How could she let her favorite little nephew ask to marry Liu Shaoyue, how could a woman from that kind of background be worthy of the high-ranking dignitaries of the Shangyun family?
It's just an expedient measure, Meng Jiao said it in front of the public like this, but it made her, the queen mother, unable to get by.
"Speaking of which, your cousin, the mourning family has not seen it yet, if you are free one day, ask her to come into the palace to show the mourning family."
"If the Queen Mother doesn't dislike it, she can naturally summon her cousin to the palace to see her."
While talking here, Yun Feng outside was also led in by the maid.
I don't know if it's an illusion, Meng Jiao felt that the high-spirited second son of the Yun family seemed to be a little frustrated.
"Yun Feng meets his aunt Chitose!"
"Feng'er, get up, come, come and sit with my aunt."
Unlike Meng Jiaopi's smiling demeanor, the Queen Mother was really happy to see Yun Feng's nephew, and when Yun Feng walked up, the Queen Mother took his hand and dragged him to sit down.
It's just that this very intimate action is a little wrong in Meng Jiao's eyes.
My aunt and nephew, who are also relatives, how can they be so intimate in front of everyone?
"I don't know why my aunt called her nephew into the palace this time?"
"You child, you are the nephew of the mourning family, and the mourning family misses you, can't they summon you into the palace to see you?"
The Queen Mother kept holding Yun Feng's hand, but the silence and maid who were waiting beside her seemed to be strange.
Meng Jiao frowned slightly, if she hadn't heard from Shen Yunxiao that the Queen Mother liked beautiful boys, maybe when she saw this scene, she would only think that this was the closeness between her aunt and nephew.
But after knowing this secret, Meng Jiao unconsciously thought about it in another way.
"My nephew sees that the little lady is still here, so I guess my aunt should have other things to discuss together."
Yun Feng was also deferential to the Queen Mother, but Meng Jiao had the heart to investigate, but she also saw a little hidden emotion from it.
I can't tell what emotions it is, but it just makes people feel chills in their hearts.
"Sure enough, Feng'er is the most favored by the mourning family, isn't this that you are already going to marry the girl of the Liu family, it just so happens that she also entered the palace today, and the mourning family wants to ask the meaning on both sides, if you want to marry, the mourning family will naturally prepare rich congratulatory gifts."
The reason of the Queen Mother is high-sounding, but Meng Jiao heard something wrong from it.
From the moment she came over to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother only mentioned a word about the marriage between the two families, and then Yun Feng appeared, and she didn't want to bring this stubble at all.
Could it be that the Queen Mother summoned her over, not to target her, the drunkard's intention was not to drink, but to Yunfeng?
This idea is too shocking, but Meng Jiao can't convince herself to think of a more reasonable reason.
"It's all up to my aunt."
"Everything is up to the Queen Mother, and the concubine has no objections."
Meng Jiao suddenly spoke, which reminded the Queen Mother that there was an outsider sitting in the hall, and glanced at Meng Jiao with some displeasure.
"It's not too early, since this matter has been decided, you can go back."
The Queen Mother spoke, and Meng Jiao naturally would not continue to stay here.
Moreover, with just such a sentence, Meng Jiao had already determined the conjecture in her heart.
The queen mother's move, the drunkard's intention is only in Yunfeng.
Meng Jiao walked out of the queen mother's bedroom, and unexpectedly found Mei Ruo from Ruizhangtai waiting outside, looking like this, I don't know how long I have been waiting.
"Sister Mei Ruo? How did you get here? ”
As soon as Meng Jiao screamed, Mei Ruo saw that the person had come out, so she hurriedly ran over and helped Meng Jiao slowly walk down the steps.
"Oh, my little lady, you can be regarded as coming out, it's not that the concubine is worried that you have been wronged here, so she specially asked the slave to come over and watch, and I will take you back quickly when you come out."
Meng Jiao smiled and listened to Mei Ruo's nagging, but her heart was soft.
Concubine An is so thoughtful, if she didn't really care about her, she would definitely not be so comprehensive.
"It makes Aunt An worried."
"What did the little lady say, the concubine Niangniang treats you as a daughter, how can her own daughter have been out for so long, this is the reason why the mother is not worried."
The two of them talked and laughed and returned to Ruizhangtai, but found that Concubine An was not in Ruizhangtai.
"Mama, where is Aunt An? Why not there? ”
"Just now, Your Majesty came to someone, saying that he was going to summon the noble concubine, but the lady had already ordered it early, and the little lady would pass on dinner when she came back."
Meng Jiao wanted to speak, but suddenly understood that Concubine An Guifei went to accompany the king at this time, and she must have followed the emperor along with dinner, so she no longer shirked and used dinner with peace of mind.
"The concubine knows that the little lady likes Jiang rice stuffed duck, and this is specially ordered to make it for the little lady alone in the small kitchen of Ruizhangtai."
"yes, it's going to take a lot of work!"
Mama and Mei Ruo sang and harmonized, and Meng Jiao heard Concubine An's full heart, but she didn't know much about what to say, and with a soft smile on her face, she could already express her current thoughts.
While eating here, a little maid hurriedly walked in from outside, and said a few words in Mei Ruo's ear, Mei Ruo was a little surprised, unconsciously glanced at Meng Jiao, lowered her head in an instant, and waved her hand to signal the little maid to go down and serve.
It's just that Meng Jiao still found Mei Ruo's eyes in the end.
"Sister Mei Ruo, is there something going on outside?"
"Back to the little lady, it's not a big deal, that is, the fourth highness is waiting outside the palace, saying that he wants to see the concubine."
Four Highnesses? Is it the Yan Dynasty?
When I came here at this time, I probably knew about the changes at the border pass, and I wanted to go to Concubine An Guifei to explore the situation first.
"Since Aunt An is not here, why don't you ask him to wait in the outer hall first?"
Meng Jiao's method is reasonable, after all, there is a difference between men and women, and Meng Jiao is alone in the inner hall, so it is naturally inconvenient to see the Yan Dynasty.
It's just that Mei Ruo listened to Meng Jiao's method, and looked very embarrassed, hesitated for a while, and finally said the aftermath.
"The people down there wanted to say the same thing, but... It's just that there is a little maid at the bottom who said it wrong, and His Royal Highness knows that the little lady is also here, and says yes, if you can't see the concubine, it's the same to see the little lady first. ”
