Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Feast of the Hung Gate (5)

However, today, the Queen Mother, who has always been indifferent to the world, summoned her at the first moment she returned to the palace, which was really unexpected by her.

However, when she entered the Qingfeng Hall of the Mingwei Palace, she saw the person sitting at the head of the Queen Mother, and her heart was a little clearer.

He Bayu did everything possible to remind her to let her return to the palace later, probably to prevent this scene from happening!

"Ahem...... Sister Guifei, you are here, if you don't come again, I will personally invite you for the ancestors! Looking at Ah Jiu, Queen Jiao said with a smile.

Today, her cheeks are slightly sunken, and her eye circles are sunken, even the best fat powder can't hide the dark shadows under her eyes, and the most vivid rouge can't hide her gray and haggard face.

Presumably, although the sword of the sixth girl did not kill her, it also injured her root and made her body completely broken.

It's just that she, like a candle in the wind, set up such a Hongmen banquet in the Queen Mother's palace on the first day she came back, is this impatient to avenge herself?

Ah Jiu smiled slightly, ignoring the queen's cynicism, but bowed slightly to the silver-haired old woman sitting on the top seat and said, "Shangguan Jiu has seen the queen mother!" ”

This old woman has a childish face, a red face, and only wears a brown palace dress with exquisite workmanship, her eyes are bright, and her body is very good at a glance, it is the Empress Dowager Huide Zhao of the Great Zhou.

"It turns out that you are Jiu'er, and you are really a lovely person. No wonder Yu'er likes you so much. ”

Looking at Ah Jiu, Empress Dowager Zhao smiled and narrowed her eyes, then pointed to the position opposite Queen Jiao and said, "Sit down!" I heard that you are not in good health, but you are tired from going up to the top of the mountain? ”

Ah Jiu's eyes flashed, and he smiled at the loving Empress Dowager Zhao: "I'm tired, but it's not that I'm tired, it should be the little eunuchs who carry the sedan chair are tired." ”

"Huh! You're funny with your little mouth. Empress Dowager Zhao laughed when she heard this, and then said to an old palace maid beside her, "Brother Ya, quickly send Yurong tea to my two daughters-in-law, if you don't serve it, it won't taste good!" ”

The old palace maid who was called Ya Ge'er immediately smiled: "It seems that the ancestors don't know how to feel sorry for their daughter-in-law, this Yurong tea has always been brewed and drunk, and it can't be delayed for half a moment, and the concubine can't be reached, how dare we make it?" ”

"Okay, okay, okay, I'm always nagging, okay, don't go quickly." Empress Dowager Zhao scolded with a smile, Ya Ge'er smiled again, and seemed to glance at Ah Jiu inadvertently, and then went down to prepare refreshments.

When entering the Qingfeng Palace, Xiaoyu stayed outside the hall according to the rules of the Qingfeng Palace, and the queen also came alone, so as soon as Ya Ge'er left, the Queen Mother, the Queen and Ah Jiu were left in the Qingfeng Palace, and it seemed to be a little quieter.

However, the Queen Mother still looked like she was smiling, and asked Ah Jiu about what she had seen and heard along the way, as well as the situation at home.

Ah Jiu picked up the important and nice things and said them, and the Queen Mother smiled and squinted, and couldn't help nodding.

However, seeing their happy appearance, the queen's face became more and more ugly.

Finally, after Ah Jiu finished talking about the situation at home, he heard the queen say coldly: "I heard that your mother and your sister contracted the epidemic in the days when you were in your province? Is there such a thing? ”
