Chapter 113: The Queen
Dong Shu came in a carriage with Mrs. Xu, because Mrs. Xu had a fate, and the Xu family would also have a carriage that matched Mrs. Xu's identity.
It was only when their carriage arrived at the gate of the palace that they encountered another carriage.
The two carriages could have gone hand in hand, but for some reason, the other carriage kept trying to get ahead of them.
After discovering this, Mrs. Xu did not get angry, but ordered: "Let it go, let it go, don't fight for this meeting." ”
Mrs. Xu spoke, and the coachman of the Xu family immediately slowed down and gave up his position to another carriage.
It's just that what the old lady and Dong Shu didn't expect was that they obviously let the other carriage go first, and when they arrived at the gate of the palace, they still bumped into the people in the carriage.
The man seemed to be waiting for them, and when he saw them appear, he looked them from head to toe without manners, and then there was a look of disdain on his face.
Old Mrs. Xu and Dong Shu didn't know this person, so they didn't mean to speak, so they prepared to leave directly.
But just as they were about to leave, they suddenly heard a voice beside them.
"Where did the countrymen come from, it's really rustic, unlucky!"
After Zhang Yiran squinted his eyes and said this, after seeing that Mrs. Xu and Dong Shu had no intention of stopping, her eyes rolled, and she said directly to Dong Shu: "Hey, I said you, you stop for me." As he spoke, Zhang Yiran immediately took two quick steps and raised his hand to stop Dong Shu.
At this moment, Dong Shu raised her eyes to look at the young girl in front of her.
Dong Shu didn't expect to be embarrassed when she first entered the palace, she pursed her lips and looked up at her mother-in-law in front of her.
After seeing that her mother-in-law had no intention of opening, she hooked her lips slightly, and looked at the young woman in front of her with a face that could not be faulted, but at first glance was a smirk.
"Girl, I am the third lady of the Xu family." After saying this, Dong Shu's expression remained unchanged, and she still looked at the young girl in front of her with an indifferent look just now and continued: "I don't know what the girl is doing to stop us here?" ”
Dong Shu's voice has always been soft and soft, and she is not in a hurry to speak.
But looking at her like this, Zhang Yiran, who was standing opposite her and stopped her, was angry.
Mama Jiang has served Concubine De for many years, and naturally understands why this niece of her own mother will be embarrassed Dong Shu, she took half a step forward, and after Zhang Yiran noticed her, she said softly: "Miss Yiran, the queen is still waiting to see Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu. ”
As soon as Mama Jiang's words fell, Zhang Yiran's face changed instantly.
Although she relied on the face of her aunt Concubine De to stop the Xu family at the palace gate, it did not mean that she dared to delay the queen to see people.
However, although she had compromised in her heart, she still held her head high proudly and looked at Dong Shu and snorted coldly.
As for the old lady Xu standing in front, she didn't dare to provoke.
Even if she doesn't like the Xu family, she also understands that Mrs. Xu still has a fate, and it is not something she can embarrass her.
Before leaving, Zhang Yiran raised his hand to support the hairpin on his head, and after successfully letting Dong Shu see his hair ornament, he snorted coldly: "I really can't get on the stage." ”
Although these words seem to have no beginning or end, everyone present understands that Zhang Yiran said this to Dong Shu.
Dong Shu also understood that Zhang Yiran was saying this to herself, but she did not refute it, but still looked at Zhang Yiran with a smirk as before.
Zhang Yiran saw that Dong Shu was not provoked by herself, and she also felt that it was inappropriate to stay any longer, so she rolled her eyes directly and turned to leave.
Seeing Zhang Yiran turn around and leave directly, Mama Jiang just wanted to say a few words to ease the atmosphere, but Zhang Yiran, who had just walked out not far away, suddenly had a weak ankle and fell to the ground directly without standing firmly.
Because she was not far away, the way she fell down was clearly seen by Mrs. Xu and Dong Shu.
Zhang Yiran didn't expect that she would fall suddenly, and after a short period of stunned, she suddenly remembered that the Xu family was still behind her.
The hand hidden in the sleeve clenched into a fist, and after sensing the sight behind her, she turned her head directly like a shrew, looked at Mrs. Xu and Dong Shu and said, "What to see!" Look at the digging ...... again."
Before she finished speaking, the maid next to Zhang Yiran suddenly reached out and pulled her.
Because of the maid's action, Zhang Yiran naturally didn't say the rest of the words.
Just looked at the eyes of Mrs. Xu and Dong Shu, no matter how you looked at it, it seemed like she hated them to death.
Seeing Zhang Yiran like this, Mama Jiang panicked, but she didn't show it on her face.
Just raised her eyes and looked at Mrs. Xu, as if she wanted to explain.
"Let's go." Mrs. Xu saw that Mama Jiang seemed to want to speak, and when Mama Jiang hadn't spoken, she spoke directly.
Hearing her words, Dong Shu immediately took half a step forward, held her arm, and said softly: "Mother, I will support you." ”
Dong Shu was worried that Mrs. Xu would also fall suddenly, but in Zhang Yiran's eyes, this was Dong Shu's deliberate humiliation of her.
She still wanted to speak, but Mama Jiang turned her head to look at her at this time.
This glance made Zhang Yiran instantly recall the fear when she saw her helping her aunt deal with those palace maids every time she met Mama Jiang in her aunt's palace before.
It's just that although she was scared in her heart, Zhang Yiran still couldn't control her hatred for the Xu family in her heart.
Dong Shu and Mrs. Xu didn't care about Zhang Yiran, but along the way, Mama Jiang hesitated several times to explain Zhang Yiran's matter, but Mrs. Xu didn't give her this opportunity.
When she arrived at the gate of the Queen's Fengyi Palace, after Mrs. Xu saw Mama Su waiting at the door, she said directly to Mama Jiang: "Isn't Mama Jiang going to visit Concubine De?" Are you going now or will you go later? ”
Because of what happened at the gate of the palace just now, Mama Jiang is in a hurry now.
But she raised her eyes to look at Mrs. Xu, and knew that Mrs. Xu would be in a bad mood, and whether she left or not, she would not be able to solve this matter instantly.
Mama Su already knew what had just happened at the gate of the palace, and as soon as she heard Mrs. Xu's words, she immediately looked at Mama Jiang and said with a smile: "Mama Jiang has to do it in advance." In this Fengyi Palace, is it possible that something will happen? ”
Although Mama Su was asking, Mama Jiang still heard another meaning from her words.
What happened at the gate of the palace, the queen knew!
As soon as she thought of this, Mama Jiang felt a chill in her heart.
Although the queen is now childless, the Hu family still has influence in the court.
The master wants to have a good relationship with the queen and send the fifth prince to the throne, and she also knows it.
But now, the girl of the Zhang family has humiliated the Xu family, whom the queen values, at the gate of the palace.
Mama Jiang was anxious, but when facing Mama Su, she didn't show her feet.
She smiled first and said to Mama Su: "Old sister, my sister will go to the old master to say goodbye first, after all, my sister should not be able to enter the palace in the future." After saying this, Mama Jiang also paused deliberately and continued: "Wait for my sister to pick up Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu again, the fifth princess specially explained to her sister yesterday that she must accompany Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu to go home." ”
Mama Jiang's two sentences have two meanings, Concubine De is already the old master, and now her master is the fifth princess. The second meaning is that she will accompany Mrs. Xu and Dong Shu, which means the five princesses.
Mama Su naturally understood what Mama Jiang meant, she didn't say anything, just chuckled and nodded at her.
Seeing Mama Su nodding, Mama Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Mrs. Xu and said, "Old lady, the servant will go to Concubine De to say goodbye first." ”
Mrs. Xu didn't speak after hearing Mama Jiang's words, but just nodded at her.
Although Mama Jiang was not at ease, she finally left.
She wanted to hurry up and tell Concubine De about what happened at the gate of the palace just now, it seemed that the Zhang family was going to send someone to Xu's house to apologize.
After Mama Jiang left, Mama Su put on a sincere smile and respectfully invited Mrs. Xu and Dong Shu in.
"There's Mama Laosu."
As soon as Mrs. Xu's words fell, Dong Shu immediately stepped forward and sent a purse embroidered with a simple Fu character pattern to Mama Su, "I embroidered it myself, and Mama Su played with it." ”
There was a silver ticket in the purse, fifty taels, the denomination was not large, but it was a meaning.
The most important thing is that this is embroidered by Dong Shu herself, and Mama Su also knows the rumors about Dong Shu, so after receiving this purse, not only did she not dislike it, but liked it very much.
Seeing Mama Su accept the purse, Mrs. Xu casually mentioned the queen's body.
Mama Su accepted the gift, and she really liked Dong Shu's temperament, so she reminded directly: "Niangniang is better today than a few days ago." But you also know that Niangniang is a heart disease, and without heart medicine, her body is not as good as before after all. ”
Hearing Mama Su's words, Mrs. Xu understood the queen's state.
She didn't continue to speak, but just led Dong Shu towards the main hall of Fengyi Palace without squinting.
Dong Shu thought about her aunt's explanation yesterday, and she didn't look around all the way, until she walked into the hall and noticed a look on her body that made her nervous, so she quietly raised her head and took a quick look.
In fact, Dong Shu didn't see anything at this glance, and when she followed Mrs. Xu to salute and was aroused again, she was just about to reach out to help Mrs. Xu, but she heard a voice from above.
"This little daughter-in-law of your family looks really blessed."
The queen's voice was soft, but if you listened closely, you could hear that her voice seemed to be a little weak.
Thinking of the rumors that she was sick and weak, Dong Shu had the courage to look at her again.
Just when Dong Shu secretly looked up at the queen, Mrs. Xu had already looked at the queen and said, "Thank you for the queen's compliment." This child has a good face, and the old body took a fancy to it at a glance. ”
Dong Shu's face is not the face shape of the girls from big families today, her face is round, she has a good life after marrying Xu Shiqiu, and now her chin has become a double chin.
She is like this, and the young girl may think that she is obese when she sees her, but in the eyes of the elders, she is extremely blessed with a face.
The queen has been ill for many years, and she has taken a lot of medicines, and she has almost been hollowed out.
So when you see Dong Shu who is white and chubby, you will feel that she is blessed.
It's just that she didn't expect that Mrs. Xu would directly admit it.
Thinking of the rumors she heard from the emperor, the queen looked at Dong Shu and said, "Good boy, get closer and show it to the palace." ”
When Dong Shu heard the queen's words, she was immediately stunned, and quietly looked at her mother-in-law in the sense that she didn't obviously, and after seeing that her mother-in-law didn't object, she took a few steps towards the queen.
The queen sat on the top and saw Dong Shu's movements clearly.
I don't know why, the more the queen looks at Dong Shu, the more happy she feels, even if Dong Shu has a small move just now, she feels cute.
Dong Shu was young, the queen looked at her, and couldn't help but think in her heart, if her son hadn't had an accident at the beginning, would the crown princess give her another little granddaughter like this?
Thinking about it like this, the queen was surprised to find that Dong Shu's face was indeed a bit like her son and daughter-in-law who died early.
The eyebrows and eyes are very similar to her own son, but her mouth and nose are like her daughter-in-law.
After discovering this, the queen looked at Dong Shu with a more kind gaze.
Dong Shu didn't perceive the queen's malice, and even she could feel that the queen's gaze falling on her was becoming more and more gentle, and she couldn't help but be bold and glanced at the queen.
Just at this glance, Dong Shu was stunned.
Dong Shu didn't expect the queen to be so thin, her face was yellow, and she was faintly green.
Even Dong Shu doesn't understand medical skills, she also understands that the queen's face is not good now.
Seeing that Dong Shu was stunned when she looked at the queen, Mrs. Xu just wanted to remind her, but at this moment, the queen suddenly said, "Good boy, step forward a little more." ”
