What happened in Concubine Xuan's palace soon reached the queen's ears. Although the details are not very clear, it is true that King Zhao was angry over there because of this matter.

"Damn, didn't you say that Zhuo Yu was just a country girl? has no talent and no virtue, how can the emperor and the three princes spend so much time for her! ”

The queen was extremely concerned about this matter, and the emperor was angry with Concubine Xuan, which proved that all her previous doubts were correct. But at the same time, she was also secretly glad that she didn't ask Zhuo Yu directly, but first dragged Concubine Xuan into the water to test herself.

The palace maid who served her personally was that she had been with her before she became the queen, and she had already figured out her thoughts, and when she saw that her master was in a big mess, she hesitated and said: "Judging from the news I got before, it seems that Concubine Xuan doesn't want Zhuo Yu to marry the third prince as a concubine." It's better for Niangniang to directly announce Zhuo Yu to see her, so that she can find out the details. ”

Her words reminded the Queen. Even if the emperor really has that kind of mind about that Zhuo Yu, at least it hasn't been put on the surface yet, she can call someone to meet in person in the name of the friendship of the landlord.

The queen had a bottom in her heart, and regained the posture that a country should have, and while raising her hand to comb her hair, she commanded the palace maid just now: "That's it!" But you have to invite her over later, I don't want to be like Concubine Xuan, I don't even know how I angered Long Yan. ”

The latter naturally didn't dare to say anything else, and only nodded yes.

When the palace maids in the queen's palace arrived, Zhuo Yu had just had breakfast. Probably because there seemed to be nothing in this palace that could threaten her for the time being, she was not very vigilant about anything other than King Zhao, who was acting a little inexplicably.

It's just that she really can't figure it out, Concubine Xuan called her to meet her yesterday, and today the queen sent someone to invite her early in the morning. What kind of luck did she go, and the lords of the two palaces invited her to tea one after another?

Zhuo Yu became more and more puzzled, and before she had gone far, she tried to talk to the palace maid who showed her the way: "This sister, do you know what the queen mother asked me to do?" I'm a girl from the countryside who doesn't understand anything, and I'm afraid that I will upset my mother for a while. ”

She tried to pretend to be curious and frightened, trying to knock something useful out of the mouth of the maid who led the way. It's just that in order to do enough tricks, the queen even sent someone to invite someone was yesterday's personal palace maid who could be called a confidant, how could the latter easily betray his master? And don't say betrayal, that palace maid is simply leaky when she speaks.

Even though she knew that her mother didn't seem to have a good impression of this Zhuo Yu, she was very respectful on the surface, as if she really treated this person as a guest in the palace: "Miss Zhuo laughed, my mother is very gentle, she is well-known for her gentleness and virtuousness, and she will never get angry easily." This time, I invite you to come over, just to try the friendship of the landlord and talk to the girl about interesting things outside the palace. ”

Her words directly prevaricated all of Zhuo Yu's inquiries, and made the latter unable to find a chance to continue asking.

Fortunately, Zhuo Yu is not such a dead-eyed person, and he doesn't plan to start from the palace maid again. Anyway, she lived in the palace openly, and many people saw her invited by the queen's people along the way just now, presumably the one who was able to sit in the current position was not so stupid to do something to her.

It's just that she was a little sneering at the praise of the queen in the words of this palace maid. can teach a son like Mo Xuan, in addition to King Zhao's favoritism, I am afraid that this queen has also made a lot of effort, how can it really be "gentle and virtuous"?

Zhuo Yu didn't have a good impression of the queen who he had never met, but he didn't show it on his face at all, and when it was time to salute, he still saluted in a regular manner: "The folk girl greets the queen." ”

"There's no need to be so formal, this palace invited you to come over today, just to talk to you, and by the way, to see what the woman who the third prince likes looks like."

The queen concluded that Zhuo Yu didn't know what King Zhao was thinking about her, so she simply used the third prince as a cover, and helped her up with a smile: "Raise your head." ”

Although Zhuo Yu wondered when the queen suddenly cared about the affairs of the third prince, he didn't think much about it, and raised his head according to his words. Who knew that at the moment when she saw her face clearly, the queen showed an unbelievable look, just like the previous Concubine Xuan.

“…… Like, too much like......"

The queen lost her mind for a moment, trembling slightly and stretched out her hand, as if to touch Zhuo Yu's cheek.

The palace maid behind her hurriedly supported her and whispered, "Niangniang." ”

The palace maid's voice brought the queen back to her senses, and she collected the look on her face, but there was still a trace of shock in her eyes.

"I'm suddenly unwell in this palace, I'm afraid I won't be able to entertain Miss Zhuo today, so let's talk about it another day!"

After the queen finished speaking, without waiting for Zhuo Yu to react, regardless of whether she had lost her etiquette or not, she left first.

After coming out of the queen's palace, Zhuo Yu walked slowly towards his temporary residence, but his eyebrows kept frowning. I don't know if it's her delusion, she always feels that there seems to be some tacit secret between the concubines in the Zhao Palace.

Of course, she couldn't think of a reason for this. Not only because she couldn't ask, but also because she had just walked to her residence, she was invited to the garden by King Zhao again.

"I heard that the queen invited you over just now, so what's the matter?"

Zhuo Yu was not surprised that King Zhao knew the news that the queen had seen him so quickly, so he simply replied: "It's nothing, it's just that Niangniang wants to hear me tell interesting stories outside the palace." It's just that I met my mother in a hurry, and she suddenly felt unwell, so I didn't say anything more. ”

King Zhao nodded, and was very satisfied with the queen's actions. He is not afraid of being known by others at all, but if everyone can be as interesting as the queen, there will be a lot less trouble.

King Zhao's tone was not at all like that of a husband who loved his wife, and said casually: "Since she is unwell, you should also go to the queen's palace less, lest she give you the sickness." By the way, how do you feel in the palace these days, and are you still used to living in it? ”

"Habit, the palace is good."

Zhuo Yu nodded without thinking, for some reason, she always felt that King Zhao's words and tone were a little wrong. But she didn't have time to think about it at all, because when she raised her head, she found that King Zhao had taken two steps forward at some point, and was looking at her straight at this time.
