But Mama Lin immediately made a serious face and said softly: "If you are satisfied, if you are extremely smart, don't mention it, just tell the emperor what you see in front of you, the queen mother and the mother are talking and laughing." Let's make up our minds on our own, what if it's different from what the master thinks? You also know that the emperor is ......"

Zhou Huai nodded again and again, and said gratefully: "Mama still understands in her heart." ”

They all knew that the emperor didn't like the empress, maybe not just because she was the daughter of Lord Qiu Xiang, but he wouldn't like any woman who occupied this position.

The two quietly looked into the hall, the queen was helping the queen mother up, as if she was going to sit aside and drink tea, the queen mother smiled, looking very happy.

Mama Lin has followed the Queen Mother since she was a girl, she has always been such a simple person, Miss Jiao of the Shen Yuan family in Jizhou has now become the Queen Mother, fortunately, the emperor is a powerful figure, otherwise she can't deal with this harem.

The year of her daughter-in-law's death, the queen mother cried more sadly than her own mother, and she was still chattering the night before the queen entered the palace, hoping that the new daughter-in-law could also have a good temperament, and at this moment it can be regarded as a wish.

Mama was about to tell Zhou Huai a few more words, when she suddenly saw a tall man standing in front of the door, she hurriedly dragged Zhou Huai and greeted him, and said with a smile: "Why is the emperor here, can you have lunch?" ”

Xiang Ye still had some respect for Mama Lin, and responded: "Just put down the things in your hand and come and take a look." He stretched out his hand to stop them and said, "I'll just go in by myself." ”

Mama Lin and Grandpa Zhou were uneasy, and Mama Lin turned around and seemed to catch a glimpse of Anle Gong's figure outside the door.

In the house, the emperor suddenly came, made the queen mother smile more and more, and said happily: "Have you had lunch?" Although it is not in accordance with the rules, the ready-made ones on the table are still hot, let Min'er serve you two bites, don't toss them and change them to new ones, blame the waste. ”

"Yes." Without waiting for the emperor to agree, Min'er had already agreed.

She didn't look at the emperor squarely, walked to the dining table steadily, put down the clean dishes and chopsticks, these things should have been done by the people below, Mama Lin and Gonggong Zhou in front of the door immediately stepped forward to help, Min'er said gently: "It's good for me to come." ”

Xiang Ye walked to the table, sat down expressionlessly, Min'er handed him a bowl of soup, but the emperor just glanced at it coldly, and at this moment someone appeared in front of the door, Concubine Shu had already changed into a snow-blue smoke gauze palace dress, noble and elegant, with a gentle smile on her face, and said when she entered the door: "Your Majesty, the concubine sent the soup you wanted." ”

Erzhen followed Concubine Shu and put down a cup of soup, and the eunuch who tasted food outside immediately came in to test the poison, and Concubine Shu Shi Shiran went to salute the Queen Mother, and then arrived in front of Min'er.

Min'er was still holding a bowl of half-cold winter melon cloud leg soup in her hand, she put it down silently, and when she saw Concubine Shu saluting her, Yun responded lightly, knowing that there was nothing for her to do here, so she bowed slightly to the emperor and quietly went back to the queen mother.

At the dining table, Concubine Shu skillfully served soup for the emperor's dishes, and asked if she was intimate, and the same was true for Concubine Shu on weekdays, but today's scene made the Queen Mother very unaccustomed to it.

The Queen Mother frowned, looked at Min'er, and then looked at the two people over there, knowing that her son did it on purpose, she stretched out her hand to hold Min'er, and said with a smile: "I'm happy to eat a lot today, accompany me to walk under the shade." ”

Min'er was indifferent, but when she heard this, she felt the kindness of the Queen Mother, and her eyebrows bent into that adorable smile. She helped the Queen Mother to go outside, and when she passed by the dining table, the Queen Mother only said goodbye and went out for a walk, ignoring the two imperial concubines here.

In the early summer, the sun is shining, and it is hot under the shade of the trees, the queen mother is timid, looking at the bright sun and sighing: "The summer in Kishu is like the spring here, it's been three years, and I'm not used to it, what is it like in Yuanzhou?" ”

Min'er responded: "Yuanzhou has four distinct seasons, which is similar to the capital. ”

The Queen Mother said: "It's still a good ...... in Jizhou," but she immediately smiled, patted Min'er's hand and said, "This is what our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law said, don't let others listen to it, naturally the capital is good, how can you be the emperor in Jizhou." ”

"Min'er." The Queen Mother was very accustomed to calling her daughter-in-law's name like this, but there was a little less smile on her face, and she said helplessly, "The emperor has done very stingy things, and he doesn't think he himself thinks that you are a smart child, don't worry about him." ”

Min'er hung her head and was silent.

The Queen Mother said: "The emperor is a person who values love and righteousness, he will know your good sooner or later, wait patiently." ”

Min'er bowed: "The concubine has written it down." ”

The Queen Mother asked, "Have you heard the story of Empress Jing'an?" ”

Min'er responded: "After the concubine left Beijing ten years ago, she didn't know about the affairs of the world, Jizhou is so far away, and the concubines don't know about the past of the queen mother and the emperor." ”

The Queen Mother sighed lightly: "Should it be or not, let me tell you?" ”

On this side, the emperor had already put down his chopsticks, and he was full of impatience, pacing back and forth in front of the palace gate.

"Since the emperor is so unhappy, don't let the concubines do this kind of thing in the future, I don't know what the Queen Mother thinks, and I don't know what the Queen Mother thinks, I must think that the concubines are deliberate."

Concubine Shu suddenly dropped the dishes and chopsticks, and said to the emperor unceremoniously: "Your Majesty, the concubine has retired." ”
