Chapter 26 Enter the palace to meet the Queen Mother
Ning Wei was waiting in the front hall early in the morning, but Mrs. Ning and Ning Yu were not there, Ning Ke thought that this time it must not be the Holy Decree, otherwise the two of them would definitely come.
"Why is Ke'er only here now!" Ning Wei's face was displeased when he saw her, but it was not too obvious in front of the palace people, and he glared at her secretly, "Gonggong Li has been waiting for a long time!"
Ning Ke glanced at him nonchalantly, didn't pay attention to it, and directly saluted Gonggong Li in front of him, explaining: "Father-in-law understands, the little girl has been unwell recently, so she is late, please don't blame father-in-law." ”
"What did Miss Ning say!" Gonggong Li didn't care, he looked at her face, although he was still ugly, he was in a lot of spirit, and smiled from the heart, "The eldest lady looks much better, and our family is relieved." The Queen Mother has been talking about seeing you for a while, but she is afraid that you will not be well. ”
Ning Ke secretly looked at this Gonggong Li for a while, and vaguely felt that he was the person next to the Queen Mother, who was not bad to her before, and had never looked down on her like others, and he would speak for her when he came to the house.
Her face softened slightly, and she lowered her head and smiled, "Thanks to the Queen Mother's thoughts, it's much better." ”
"That's good! That's good!" Gonggong Li smiled, looking happy, "If it's convenient for the eldest lady today, then go to the palace with our family, the queen mother is really worried." ”
Enter the palace to see the Queen Mother?
Maybe there's something you can do about it!
A faint smile flashed at the corner of Ning Ke's lips, "The little woman is also very concerned about the Queen Mother, so let's enter the palace today!"
Gonggong Li got permission, and said to Ning Wei, who was being let go of the cold, with a smile: "Then our family will take the eldest lady into the palace, there is a lot of disturbance!
"The father-in-law is serious. Ning Wei's face was gloomy and dignified, and he said a few polite words to Gonggong Li, and then instructed his mother-in-law to go to the treasury to get some gifts, and asked Ning Ke to take them to the Queen Mother.
Ning Ke couldn't help but glance at Ning Wei more, although this person usually ignores her, he is really good at being a good person in front of outsiders.
Hum!
What a hypocrite!
This is for fear that others will say that he is harsh to his concubine!
Gonggong Li didn't know it, and praised Ning Wei for loving Ning Ke a few times, Ning Wei was very useful, and quietly rewarded some treasures to Gonggong Li, and everyone was very happy.
Ning Ke looked at it coldly, mocking in his heart, but he didn't show it, and waited until the politeness was over, and then he took Qingqiang into the palace together.
The Queen Mother lives in Yiyang Palace, although it is late spring at this time, there is still floor heating in the dormitory. She was not in good health and was afraid of the cold, so the emperor specially asked someone to make offerings.
Ning Ke followed behind Gonggong Li, completely unsuppressed by the royal majesty, her posture was straight and proud, she walked on the promenade as if she was visiting her own garden, and she was content.
Qingqiang pulled her several times, signaling her to bow her head, she couldn't look directly at the royal Tianwei, Ning Ke didn't care, her chin was raised higher.
She doesn't like to walk with her head down, it's uncomfortable, it's not good-looking, and she has no ambition!
"Queen Mother, our family has brought the eldest lady!" "Gonggong Li stopped in front of a crimson palace gate and called in a low voice.
The palace gate was soon opened by a palace maid, and when she saw Ning Ke, she smiled very familiarly, "The eldest lady is finally here, and the queen mother can't wait." ”
Saying that, he led her in, and Qingqiang saw the little palace maid who was familiar with her before, and the two hugged and talked.
Ning Ke walked into the spacious and gorgeous palace, the reflection of the jade and white stone floor tiles was clear, the curtains were overlapping and hanging on the ground, and the incense was curling, making people have the illusion of falling into the sky.
Today, the Queen Mother is sitting on the phoenix couch, wearing a lavender palace skirt, her face is a little old, a little sickly, but she can also suppress the phoenix hairpin on the cloud temples, and she has a graceful and luxurious atmosphere.
She held a golden stove and leaned lazily on the cushion, with the palace maid gently hanging her shoulders and back to relieve her pain.
Ning Ke walked up to her, his eyes swept over her face casually, and he couldn't help frowning, this disease ...... It doesn't seem easy!
"Ke'er!" The Queen Mother heard the palace maid's call, slowly opened her eyes, and saw Ning Ke standing in front of her, with a touch of joy on her sickly face, "Ke'er, you are finally here, but let the mourning family worry about it!"
Ning Ke subconsciously wanted to salute and greet her, but the Queen Mother waved her hand to stop her, "Those false courtesies are not necessary, you are not in good health, don't be so polite here in the mourning family in the future." As he spoke, he patted the phoenix couch lightly and smiled lovingly, "Come, sit down next to the mourning family and let the mourning family take a good look at you." ”
"Yes. Ning Ke felt inexplicably kind when she looked at her, as if she had seen her modern grandmother, and she had never been bland, and it was rare for her to sit beside her obediently.
Tai* held her hand, looked at her carefully for a while, confirmed that she was okay, and then nodded happily, "Okay! It's really good! It seems that you are really fine, last time I said that you went, the mourning family is really ......"
Seeing her red eyes, Ning Ke's heart also twitched, and she held her thin hand with her backhand, and comforted: "Don't worry, the Queen Mother, Ke'er is fine, she just held her breath for a while last time, and then she will be fine." The Queen Mother should not be overly sad, so as not to hurt her body. ”
The Queen Mother choked up a little, nodded slowly, and was so excited that she couldn't speak.
Ning Ke couldn't say anything in her heart, it seemed that except for Qingqiang and Mama Wang, the Queen Mother was the only one who loved her so much, and she didn't know how many times better than her cheap father!
"Queen Mother, the past is over!" Ning Ke comforted in a gentle tone, "Don't think about it anymore, isn't Ke'er doing well now?"
"Yes, yes, it's the mourning family who is too out of shape. The queen mother nodded, and the palace maid brought water and cleaned her face, so that her spirit was better.
This elderly lady doesn't seem to have changed much from ancient times to the present, and the topic of marriage between men and women will always be indispensable.
The old lady of the Queen Mother first cordially expressed her condolences to Ning Ke's physical condition at the beginning, and as she spoke, she pulled up the marriage contract with Chu Yuxuan.
Although Yuxuan is a little more smug now, but when you were a child, the two of you had a good time, but you grew up a little stranger, you have had a marriage contract since you were a child, and you are definitely going to get married, and the mourning family has nothing to think about, I just want you to be good, don't listen to the rumors outside, hurt your feelings. ”
Ning Ke couldn't help but sneer in her heart when she heard this, what is a rumor? That's the truth, she saw it with her own eyes!
But in front of other people's grandmothers, she didn't complain about Chu Yuxuan anything, but whenever the Queen Mother said, she listened to it and didn't express her position.
The Queen Mother slowly realized that something was wrong with her, "Ke'er, are you on your mind? Why don't you seem to be happy!"
"Queen Mother, Ke'er felt happy when she saw you, how could she not be happy?" Ning Ke smiled.
The Queen Mother was puzzled, "Why is that? The mourning family told you so much, but you didn't reply." ”
"Queen Mother. Ning Ke looked at her seriously and explained in a low voice: "It's not that Ke'er doesn't say it, but it's that if you say it, you're afraid that the Queen Mother will be sad." ”
"What's wrong?" the Queen Mother frowned, "But someone bullied you." ”
Someone bullied her?
Scold!
Some people have the courage, but they don't have the ability!
Ning Ke smiled and shook his head, "No one bullied Ke'er, but what the Queen Mother said, Ke'er is afraid that she will disappoint the Queen Mother." She looked at the Queen Mother's puzzled eyes seriously, and said word by word: "Ke'er doesn't want to marry the second prince, it's impossible for us!"
The Queen Mother's face changed, "Ke'er, you can't talk nonsense! This is the emperor's personal decree, where can you say that if you don't end it, you won't end it!"
"But if he doesn't treat me sincerely, why should I force it?" Ning Ke said without humility or arrogance: "So many things have happened, and I have already figured it out. Therefore, Ke'er begged the Queen Mother to help Ke'er this time. ”
The Queen Mother was stunned, "You asked the mourning family to help you withdraw from this marriage?"
