In the early morning of the queen's birthday, Dong Shu woke up in the morning, and as soon as she finished freshening up, she heard Ling Xiang report that the queen specially sent someone to pick her up.

When Dong Shu heard this, she hurriedly gave Yuan Xi in her arms to the nurse, and then looked at Xu Shiqiu with a little puzzlement and said, "How could the queen mother send someone to pick me up?" After saying this, Dong Shu didn't wait for Xu Shiqiu to answer, so she walked quickly to the dresser and carefully checked her outfit today.

When she checked her outfit, Xu Shiqiu also came back to her senses, looked at her and said, "If the lady can't guess the queen's thoughts, you might as well ask Mama Yan." After saying this, Xu Shiqiu thought for a moment and continued: "Maybe Niangniang wants to see you, so she specially sent someone to pick you up." ”

Dong Shu has never encountered this kind of thing, and she is still the most noble woman in the world who treats her like this.

But although she was puzzled in her heart, Dong Shu still had to leave with the people sent by the queen.

The original plan was that Xu Shiqiu would send Mrs. Xu and Dong Shu to the palace, and then he would go to the former dynasty to be with the officials.

But now that the queen sent someone over early in the morning, Mrs. Xu was afraid that she still hadn't cleaned it up.

After hearing the news, Mama Yan also came quickly.

After she arrived here, Dong Shu just left from the dresser, and when she saw Mama Yan appear, she hurriedly asked, "Mama Yan, why did the queen send someone to pick me up?" ”

"Don't worry, the third lady doesn't have to guess wrong, the mother should want you to accompany her early in the morning." After Mama Yan explained, she paused for a moment and continued: "The servant will accompany you into the palace, you can rest assured, the mother will definitely explain to you after entering the palace." ”

Dong Shu also understands that she can't ask the queen, so if the queen doesn't explain, then she can only guess by herself.

But now that Mama Yan is with her, she is a little worried.

After thinking about this, Dong Shu turned her head to look at Xu Shiqiu and said: "Xianggong, don't forget to send your mother into the palace later, the congratulatory gift I prepared has been handed over to my mother yesterday, and my mother will bring it into the palace together." After saying this, Dong Shu glanced at Ling Xiang, and after Ling Xiang gave Dong Shu's spare dress to Mama Yan, she followed Mama Yan out of the house.

Dong Shu was nervous, but she was taught by Mama Yan every day these days, and she still wouldn't forget it when she should hold it.

It's just that after seeing the half-width honor guard belonging to the queen at the door of the house, I was still frightened and immediately glanced at Mama Yan.

Mama Yan also didn't understand what was going on with the queen, so she could only glance at Dong Shu and let her sit on it with peace of mind, and wait until the palace to talk about everything.

After Dong Shu received Mama Yan's eyes, she took a deep breath, and then sat on the phoenix chariot where the queen usually sits.

Dong Shu was worried all the way, until she came to Fengyi Palace unimpeded all the way and saw Mama Su, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Dong Shu was in a hurry and wanted to ask the queen what was going on, she understood that she couldn't ask here.

After striding into Fengyi Palace, Dong Shu said softly: "Mama Su, why would Niangniang send someone to pick me up early in the morning?" ”

"It's better not to ask more about this matter, the third lady just needs to understand that the mother really likes you, so she will send someone to pick you up." Mama Su didn't want to say more, so she could only remind Dong Shu like this.

I didn't know what Mama Su said, but after hearing her words, Dong Shu completely put aside her worries and prepared to meet the queen in her best appearance.

After following Mama Su to the inner hall of Fengyi Palace, Dong Shu saw that the queen had not yet dressed up, and leaned on the bed with her hair scattered.

And Mama Hu was waiting with a bowl of soup and medicine.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" When Dong Shu saw the queen like this, where did she still have the heart to ask, and hurriedly walked towards her.

When Dong Shu walked to the queen's side, the queen opened her eyes, looked at her and sighed: "You are so worried about the palace, but the relatives of the palace are thinking about calculating the palace and squeezing out the last trace of blood in the palace." As the queen spoke, she immediately took the initiative to reach out and take Dong Shu's hand.

Seeing that the queen finally had the spirit, Mama Hu was about to send the medicine in her hand to the queen, but the queen waved her hand at her.

"This palace doesn't need to drink medicine, this palace is angry, you don't need to drink medicine!"

The more the queen spoke, the more angry she became, until Dong Shu raised her hand and patted her back, she came back to her senses, looked at Dong Shu and said, "Hello Shu'er." ”

Dong Shu didn't know how to answer, so she could only be silent.

And after staying by Dong Shu's side for a while, the queen was also a little more energetic than before.

"Wait for the main palace to change clothes." As the queen spoke, she was still holding Dong Shu's hand, but the decadence just now disappeared.

Dong Shu didn't dare to take the initiative to let go of the queen's hand, so she could only let the queen hold it, and waited quietly on the side while the palace maid was waiting for the queen to dress up.

When the queen was dressed, she moved her arm slightly.

As soon as Dong Shu moved like this, the queen noticed her movements.

"Shu'er, does it feel hard to accompany this palace like this?"

As soon as Dong Shu heard the queen's words, she immediately blurted out: "No, I'm very happy to be able to accompany my mother." After saying this, Dong Shu thought about it and decided to tell the truth: "It's that Yuan Xi is too young, it's inconvenient to take her, I will accompany my mother, and I will be a little worried about Yuan Xi." ”

As soon as Dong Shu's words came out, the queen looked at her and laughed, "You are a sincere child, you will not deceive this palace." "The queen has rich experience, how can she not see that Dong Shu is telling the truth.

She used to be a mother and knew a mother's worries about her children.

So she can be sure that Dong Shu is telling the truth.

"Niangniang, are you unhappy?" Dong Shu thought for a long time, and finally said such a sentence.

Hearing Dong Shu's words, the queen took her with one hand, and walked out with the other hand on Mama Hu's arm, "Well, this palace is angry with the Hu family." ”

As soon as she heard the queen's words, Dong Shu regretted it a little, she felt that she shouldn't have asked too much just now.

The 'Hu family' in the queen's mouth must be the queen's maiden family.

And the queen didn't seem to have any intention of continuing to speak, so she took her hand and walked out.

After Dong Shu followed the queen to the outer room of the inner hall of Fengyi Palace, she saw a young girl kneeling here, looking at her face, but she looked like the queen.

As soon as she saw this girl, Dong Shu guessed that she was afraid that she was from the queen's mother's family, the Hu family.

The queen didn't seem to have the intention of explaining, and when she saw Hu Yao, she planned to introduce her to Dong Shu.

It wasn't until she took Dong Shu's hand and walked to the top to sit down that she ordered: "Mama Su, send her out of Fengyi Palace and return her to the Hu family." Tell the Hu family that there are already caring people in the palace, and the Hu family doesn't have to worry about it in the future. ”

If Xu Nuanwen and Xu Yanzhu were here, they would definitely be able to guess what was going on behind this incident as soon as they heard the queen's words.

But it's Dong Shu who is staying here.

Dong Shu only heard that this matter was related to the Hu family, but she didn't hear that it was related to her.

The queen didn't seem to have any intention of explaining, and after Mama Su took Hu Yao down, she looked at Dong Shu and said, "Sit here for a while, and then accompany the palace to accept the worship of those women, and eat more at noon." ”

"Well, I'll stay with my mother." After Dong Shu responded obediently, she continued to sit next to the queen, not curious or asking anything.

Seeing Dong Shu like this, the queen naturally liked her more and more.

At the gate of the palace, the wives of each family are also ready to enter the palace and go to Fengyi Palace to greet the queen.

As soon as Mrs. Xu arrived, Xu Nuanwen, who had already received the news, came directly to her and told her and Xu Shiqiu the news she had gotten.

"I just received the news that the Hu family learned that their younger siblings were liked by the queen, so they specially sent a girl into the palace to accompany the queen. It's just that this girl seems to be arrogant and unwilling to accept the arrangement given to her by the queen, which made the queen unhappy, and has been sent out of Fengyi Palace by the queen. ”

As soon as Xu Nuanwen finished saying this, Xu Shiqiu looked at her and said, "What does the Hu family mean by this?" Could it be that they still think that we deliberately let the lady enter the palace to accompany the queen? ”

"I haven't inquired about the specific situation yet, I only know that this girl is the niece of the queen mother and the youngest daughter of the Hu family according to her seniority, but she has a bad temper."

Xu Nuanwen found out these things so quickly, of course, it was not only her ability.

Concubine De began to investigate the matter when the Hu family sent people into the palace, so she was able to send the news to Xu Nuanwen after the accident this morning.

Since Xu Shiqiu has an official position, Concubine De's attitude towards Xu Nuanwen has been much better, which is why she is so active in listening to these news.

Although Xu Nuanwen didn't hear much news, it was enough for Mrs. Xu to know how to treat the in-laws of the Hu family.

After Ye led Hu and Xu Yanmo to Mrs. Xu's side, Mrs. Xu learned more about this girl from the Hu family.

"Aunt Yao is my grandfather's old daughter, although she was not born to her original match, but her status in the Hu family is close to that of the cousin of the uncle's family."

Hu's grandfather and the current queen are brothers and sisters, her grandmother died early, and her grandfather married her stepfamily twenty years ago, Hu Yao, the little aunt, was born to her grandfather's stepfamily.

Therefore, although Hu Yao is a concubine, she is the daughter of her step-family, and her identity is not as good as that of the daughter born to her original partner.

But Hu's grandmother only gave birth to two sons, but did not give birth to daughters.

But Hu's uncle and her father both have daughters, but she and her cousin are older than this little aunt.

As soon as Hu Shi finished saying this, Ye Shi hesitated, and finally looked at Xu Nuanwen and reminded: "I heard that the queen originally wanted to accept Hu Yao as a righteous daughter and give her the position of county lord. After saying this, Ye Shi approached Xu Nuanwen and continued in a low voice: "But Hu Yao is unwilling, it seems that he has said something like Jingxing." ”

As soon as Mrs. Xu heard what Hu and Ye said, she understood what was going on.

Hu Yao is young, but she is a senior, and she and the princes are all of the same generation.

Although she is much younger than Ye Jingxing, the age difference between her mother and her father is also very large, much older than between her and Ye Jingxing.
