The next two days of the journey is also no danger, the road is smooth, after all, the queen mother's patrol is here, local officials have received a notice as early as a few months ago, where dare to slack off, everything along the road is done, just to leave a good impression on the queen mother.

At noon on the third day, the group arrived at the palace, Shu Mei looked around, but still didn't find Luo Xiu's figure, and wondered a little, since he didn't follow the queen mother to the palace, why did he follow him for a day?

Empress Dowager Shu is a person who can enjoy it, and she comes over every summer, and this habit has probably been there since she was still the queen. I have to say that there are still a lot of conveniences in this high position. Even people like Shu Mei, who are not greedy for enjoyment, don't want to leave after coming, because this palace is really good.

It was built only more than 50 years ago, and it was built by the last emperor of the previous dynasty, which cost a lot of manpower and financial resources, causing a deficit in the treasury, so when it was built, he had been ousted from the throne and had no blessing to suffer.

In fact, the previous dynasty and the current dynasty are of the same root and clan, but the Taizu Emperor of this dynasty is a branch of the Xiao family, so in the end, although the throne was replaced, the surname is still Xiao.

The Queen Mother finally recovered her spirits and summoned Shu Mei.

"You girl, what is the brand for you?"

Although the Queen Mother's words sounded harsh, her expression and tone did not look like she was angry at all, and Shu Mei also understood that she was teasing herself.

"You said I would go to you when I wanted to miss my grandmother, but I've been so busy lately that I don't have time to think about it."

Shu Mei's words are not false, she has been really busy recently, Su Yaqing has been in bed to recuperate in the past two days, and Zhu Zeyue has not been closed, so she feels idle.

But the Queen Mother said that, and then she talked to Shu Mei about something else. Shu Mei even coaxed the Su family, who was so difficult to serve, and naturally she was not a problem with the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother had more true feelings for Shu Mei than Su Shi did to her.

Shu Mei compiled the stories of what he had seen and heard in his previous life to tell the Su family, and picked up some things in the market, which the Queen Mother had never heard of, which made the Queen Mother laugh non-stop, and even Aunt Xu had a smile in her eyes. As soon as Zhu Scarlet Sakura came, she was a little surprised to see the Queen Mother smiling from ear to ear.

Although the Queen Mother looks approachable, she is still the Queen Mother after all, not to mention the majesty of her body, and she has always been the most disciplined, she has never seen the Queen Mother like this...... Easy over.

Shu Mei saw that the Queen Mother and Zhu Feiying had something to discuss, so she got up and retired, and Aunt Xu also withdrew from the palace maids left and right.

Zhu Scarlet Ying knelt down in front of the Queen Mother all of a sudden, and tears welled up in her eyes, "Imperial grandmother, please save my child......"

Aunt Xu didn't need to be instructed to step forward and help Zhu Scarlet Sakura up.

"If I don't want to take care of you, why should I bring you here?" The smile on the Queen Mother's face disappeared and she sighed, "You can stay here with peace of mind and go back when you give birth to a child." ”

Shu Mei came out of the Queen Mother and passed by the lotus pond that Gu Huiniang was thinking about, thinking about waiting for her to come out, but saw Mrs. Chang not far in front, looking like she was waiting for herself.

"Are you free, come with me."

She was really waiting for herself, Shu Mei nodded, and seeing that Mrs. Chang didn't bring a maid with her, she also asked Lixia to go back first.

"I haven't thanked you for what happened last time."

Shu Mei knew what she said as soon as she heard it, "Madame doesn't have to be polite. ”

"If it weren't for you, I'm afraid that the grievances between us would not be resolved in this life, I have written down your feelings, and if there is anything that needs me in the future, I will do my best."

"I'm just doing it crookedly, both of you are reasonable people, so it can go so well."

"Back then, I was young and vigorous, so she could only marry far away, and she couldn't even return to the capital for many years......"

Shu Mei didn't interject, just quietly listened to Mrs. Chang say, she didn't think that Mrs. Chang was looking for herself just to talk about the past, according to Mrs. Chang's temper, how difficult is it to talk about this matter for so long?

The two of them just said this, and walked around the huge lotus pond, and Mrs. Chang finally spoke.

"When you are young, you will inevitably be inconsiderate, and there are some words that the speaker has no intention of, but the listener has a heart, and it is easy to misunderstand."

"Forgive me for being stupid, I don't understand what Madame said." Shu Mei had some bad premonitions in his heart.

Speaking of the above, it is already Mrs. Chang's limit, she is not a person who is used to beating around the bush, seeing that Shu Mei was indeed at a loss, she sighed and said: "Luo Xiu grew up with me, he looks out of tune but is more serious than anyone else......"

"Madame doesn't need to say it!" Shu Mei couldn't help but interrupt Mrs. Chang's words, she was ashamed and annoyed when she was treated like this, "I'm ...... with him"

Shu Mei couldn't say any more, she wanted to say that it had nothing to do with Luo Xiu, but remembering that he had indeed helped her several times, the reason for this was that Shu Mei had been reluctant to think about it, just as a coincidence, and now that it was revealed by Mrs. Chang, she couldn't even say anything to refute.

Seeing this, Mrs. Chang was also a little embarrassed, she didn't want to mention it, but whether it was the last Su family's birthday banquet or this trip, Luo Xiu's attention to Shu Mei was really a little unusual.

If Shu Mei is not married, she would be happy to see such a look and talent, but now that the identities of the two are there, it will not be good for anyone to go on like this. However, Luo Xiu's temper is very clear to her, if he has an idea, others will not be able to listen to what they say, so she can only find Shu Mei and remind her. As long as she has no intention, no matter how much he thinks, it will be in vain.

It's just that as soon as the words came out, there was no reason to take it back, and Mrs. Chang continued: "I definitely didn't doubt you, but I want to apologize to you on his behalf." ”

Looking at Mrs. Shangchang's open eyes, Shu Mei didn't know how to let it out even if he had a breath in his heart, and tried his best to make his voice sound very calm: "I understand what Madam means, you can rest assured, I will abide by my duty, but I also ask Madame to take care of him." ”

After speaking, Shu Mei turned around and left first, the sour grievances in her heart surged upward, she was afraid that she would cry if she couldn't control it.

Whether it is Zhu Junliu or Luo Xiu, it has never been her to provoke, why do they just refuse to let go of themselves!

After going back, Shu Mei locked herself in the room, and it wasn't until the palace maid next to the Queen Mother came to invite her to dinner that Shu Mei found that it was evening.

Shu Mei cheered up and went to the queen mother's bedroom, and when she was helping the palace maid to cook vegetables, she heard a voice behind her.

"Imperial grandmother, my grandson has come to greet you."

Hearing this voice, Shu Mei's hand trembled, and the soup spoon fell directly to the ground.

Shu Mei remembered that this was the last voice she had heard in her previous life......

"Kill, leave no one."
