After sending off Wu Guogong and his wife, Cheng Enhou and his family returned to their own courtyard.

Since the matter has been decided, Jiang Zhixia has become such a big thing as the righteous daughter of the martial country, so naturally she needs to talk to the queen mother in the palace.

What's more, the queen has been thinking about the marriage recognition banquet. What happened at the confession banquet also had to go and tell the queen mother.

Therefore, Mrs. Chengenhou handed a post to the palace and waited for the queen's summons.

In the lunar month, the palace is also busy for the New Year.

As the head of the six palaces, the queen mother is naturally more busy.

Therefore, three days passed, and when it was not until the eighteenth day of the lunar month, the queen had time to summon Mrs. Chengenhou and Jiang Zhixia to the palace for an audience.

Mrs. Chengenhou and Jiang Zhixia took the carriage and arrived at the gate of the palace together.

As usual, he got out of the carriage and got into the palace sedan chair, and was carried all the way to the queen's Fengyi Palace by the little eunuch.

As soon as I passed the gate of Fengyi Palace, I saw the queen wearing a thick cloak and holding a delicate hand stove waiting in the courtyard, looking forward to it.

Seeing Mrs. Chengenhou, the queen hurriedly stepped forward and personally helped her into the main hall.

Then, the queen sat in the first place, and Mrs. Chengenhou and Jiang Zhixia first performed the state salute.

Then the queen took the two princesses and the prince to give Mrs. Chengenhou a family gift.

When the queen asked the two princesses and the prince to salute Jiang Zhixia's uncle, Jiang Zhixia couldn't help but want to avoid it.

"You don't have to avoid it. My mother was like this every time, but I forced her to accept the ceremony. You too, it's useless to avoid it. ”

Xu saw that the palace was full of his own family, and the queen also looked playful.

Jiang Zhixia smiled bitterly. She avoided it not only because she was a courtier, but also because she had worked as an errand in Fengyi Palace.

Even if she herself doesn't have such a heavy sense of awe for these royal people. However, Xiao Zhixia, who engraved the rules and etiquette in his bones, still couldn't control his deep sense of awe.

After all, they worked together in the palace for eight years.

In the past eight years of work, it is not like in the previous life, and the boss is getting more and more familiar...

Jiang Zhixia had a bitter face, and after being forcibly pulled by the queen and accepting the courtesy of the two princesses and the prince, the queen let go of her hand.

After waiting for them all to finish, the queen led the group of them to the inner hall.

"We are all our own family, so we don't have to talk to each other. I've always taught Ning'er, Jing'er and Rui'er that's what I did. ”

The queen touched the heads of the three children lovingly and said.

"Exactly. So don't mind my aunt. ”

The older third princess Ning'er explained.

She is exactly ten years old this year, the same age as a bud. Looks delicate and cute.

Although she is a princess, she was raised by the queen very well. For Jiang Zhixia, the aunt who was born as a palace maid, she didn't mean to look down on her.

"Auntie, Xiangxiang." The prince, who was almost one and a half years old, snuggled up to Jiang Zhixia's side, raised his immature smiling face, and said with a smile.

Jiang Zhixia's face was red, but everyone laughed.

"The smell of my brother and sister is extremely good, no wonder the emperor likes it."

The queen teased as she laughed.

"This is a perfume made by Sister Qiushui herself, and I like it very much, so I often apply some. Over time, it will get stained on your clothes. Even if you wash it, it still has a faint smell. ”

Jiang Zhixia said embarrassedly.

She has been in the palace, so she naturally knows that when she enters the palace for an audience, it is best not to wear a sachet or apply perfume or the like.

After all, if you meet a pregnant palace concubine, it is easy to be framed.

"My brother and sister are here, and I can rest assured." The queen was relieved.

She naturally knew Jiang Zhixia's carefulness.

Otherwise, can you leave the palace safely in the past eight years? What's more, I also got a lot of good karma.

After finishing the conversation for a while, Jiang Zhixia took the gift out again.

"This is a doll made by the courtiers to the maid on the needlework. It was given to the two princesses and the prince to play. ”

The doll that Jiang Zhixia took out was made by Ruolan, imitating the kind of soft and cute doll in her previous life.

For the two princesses, it is the appearance of HelloKitty, and for the prince, it is the appearance of the Hanhan giant panda.

For this reason, Jiang Zhixia was ruthless and took out a part of the little cotton he had saved to fill it.

This is still thinking that after the year, there will be new cotton, so I am willing to bleed.

"Ahh It's so cute. "The third princess and the sixth princess both had a light in their eyes, and they were about to come forward to get it.

As a result, he was dodged by Jiang Zhixia.

"Please ask the mother to let people check it first, and then play with the princess and Her Royal Highness." Jiang Zhi Xia Fu said in a low voice again.

If not, Madame Chengenhou asked her to prepare some heartfelt gifts for the princess and the prince, not always the kind of gifts that were bought outside. She really didn't want to give such handmade things.

There are so many places in the palace where people can do their hands and feet.

"Brother and sister, I'm too careful." The queen said helplessly.

However, when she saw Jiang Zhixia's insistent look, she could only reluctantly let the palace people take it down and let the imperial doctor check it.

The two princesses are very caring, and they are also very well taught by the queen's mother, and when they see this situation, they don't cry or make trouble, but they just stick to Jiang Zhixia's side affectionately.

In this way, because the children were there, the three of them chatted about some family matters.

After lunch, the queen sent the palace people to take the three children back to take a nap, so that they could talk properly.

Mrs. Cheng Enhou first told the cause and effect of Wu Guogong and his wife recognizing Jiang Zhixia as a righteous daughter.

The queen was naturally surprised by this, and praised: "Brother and sister, it is rare to have this ability." ”

So Jiang Zhixia modestly said what he had said before.

The matter of recognizing righteousness is a good thing for both parties. The queen naturally agreed.

After this matter was finished, Mrs. Chengenhou told the family about the family recognition banquet again.

In particular, it was explained in detail that Miss Zhu Biao of the Weiwu Marquis Mansion designed Liu Tiankuo.

When the queen heard this, her face was dark and gloomy.

When he heard the content of the transaction between Cheng Enhou and Liu Tiankuo and Weiwu Hou, he thought for a long time and was silent.

After a long time, the queen spoke: "This is too cheap for them." ”

"It's okay. After all, he is your brother's stepfather, and he has gone too far, and it will also affect your brother's reputation. ”

Seeing the queen's face, Mrs. Chengenhou hurriedly relieved.

"Then Fourth Master Wei and Miss Zhu, are they now punished according to what Weiwu Hou said?"

The queen asked again after a pause.

"This is the news from the Weiwu Hou Mansion, saying that Miss Zhu has been sent to the Zhu family's family temple to think about it. As for Wei Siye, he was beaten with thirty military sticks. However, in reality, it is not good for us to reach out too long to inquire. After all, it was the home of military generals. Mrs. Chengenhou said hesitantly.

She also felt that the punishment was too light, but since the master and son should be punished, she naturally didn't want to say anything more.
