Chapter 125: Empress Guo

Seeing this, Du Jingyi added a little more understanding of the majesty of imperial power.

It's strange that everyone wants to climb up, and the things that others cherish are just foils in the face of absolute power.

Thinking of this, the pace under his feet became more and more steady, and he did not fall into a timid state.

Following Gonggong Hu, they did not go straight to the main courtyard of Changchun Palace, but made a detour to the small garden on the west side.

There was a small courtyard in the garden, and the door was now open.

The closer I got, the more I can hear the faint sound of women talking and laughing.

Du Jingyi listened attentively, and quickly recognized the voice of her aunt, Mrs. Xing, which neutralized a lot of the nervousness she was when she just walked over.

Soon, I saw Gonggong Hu lead her to the door of a house, and then said with a smile.

"Young lady, please, Niangniang and Mrs. Xing are waiting inside."

"Well, thank you Grandpa Hu."

Immediately afterwards, I heard a shout from Gonggong Hu.

"The hussar general's wife has arrived."

The people inside heard the movement and naturally came out to open the curtains.

Greeted by two delicate palace maids, seeing the clothes on their bodies, Du Jingyi also knew that they must be the palace maids with faces beside the queen.

So after a slight nod, I entered the door.

As soon as he came in, he was a little surprised by Du Jingyi.

The layout of the house here is very different from the Changchun Palace just seen.

Simple and generous, but with a warmth that only the people have.

As soon as I got into my eyes, I saw the two of them sitting on the kang in the open window, and there was silver charcoal burning next to it, so the room was very warm.

"Coming?"

Du Jingyi has been bowing slightly, and when she heard that this voice was not from her aunt Mrs. Xing, she knew that it must be the queen's.

So the bereveled ones knelt down and said goodbye.

"The courtiers and merchants of the Du clan have seen the queen's mother."

"Well, get up, there's no need to be polite in this courtyard, just treat this palace as an ordinary elder."

When Du Jingyi heard this, he didn't dare to really make a mistake.

After respectfully saying "The courtiers thank Niangniang", they stood up in accordance with the rules.

I saw that the palace maid brought a round stool just now, Du Jingyi settled down slightly, and only half sat on it, still bowing her head slightly, not daring to look around.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Xing couldn't help but smile and said.

"This child is young, and he hasn't gone through much, so don't be surprised."

As soon as she heard her tone, she knew that she was an old friend with the queen, and she had a great relationship, so she was so calm.

The queen also smiled when she heard this, and then said.

"Raise your head and take a look at the palace, your aunt is going to praise you to the sky, saying that she is a perfect match for Rokuro."

"Yes."

At this moment, Du Jingyi has a bit of an ugly daughter-in-law feeling like she sees her in-laws, obviously when facing her serious father-in-law, she is not so nervous.

The queen can be regarded as seeing all the beauties in the world in the palace, so if you really want to talk about it, Du Jingyi is not very outstanding.

But she has a spirit that is rarely seen in the world.

A pair of eyes are as bright as stars, and if you look closely, you can see a little playfulness.

After three years of marriage, he can still maintain such a good attitude, and it seems that he will relieve his emotions.

Seeing this, the queen smiled.

"It's really good, your aunt didn't give birth to the palace, and Rokuro is really blessed."

"The mother praised it falsely, and the courtiers didn't dare to be it."

"How old are you?"

"Back to Niangniang, the courtiers are almost nineteen."

"Oh? At your age, the princes of this palace are all one year old, but you still look like a daughter's family, and your waist is not thick. ”

Hearing this, Du Jingyi suddenly didn't know how to answer.

Could it be that the queen wants to beat her and make her pregnant as soon as possible, so that she can succeed the incense of the princess's mansion?

Mrs. Xing listened to it next to her and couldn't help but quip.

"Didn't Niangniang forget, Liulang went to Cezhou after marrying her, and only came back a few days ago, speaking of which, the two are still newlyweds, so ah, this heir is not in a hurry."

After listening to her explanation, the queen reacted.

"When I'm older, people are getting confused, yes, Liulang has been in Cezhou for three years, but it's hard for you to wait for him."

"The general fights for the country, and the courtiers are honorable, and they are not bitter."

Hearing this, the queen also chuckled.

"You're a funny kid, tell me how to be honored?"

came up to ask questions, it seems that Queen Guo summoned her to the palace today, and she also had some thoughts about checking her.

After Du Jingyi calmed down a little, he spoke.

"Cezhou is in danger, the general was ordered to go, it is the righteousness of the family and the country, although the courtiers are the people of the back house, but they also know the truth that there is a country to have a family, so it is the luck of the courtiers to have such a husband."

"That's the way it is, but after waiting for three years, don't you complain?"

"The general fights on the battlefield, and the courtiers can't help, and the only way to stay home is to stay at ease."

"You're a ruler."

Empress Guo didn't ask all the way about this matter, and Du Jingyi didn't know if her answer was passable.

Instead, Mrs. Xing on the side said with a smile.

"The little couple are still young, and now that Rokuro is back, it can be regarded as a bittersweet one."

"Yes, it's better to be young, it doesn't matter how many years have passed, after all, you still have to wait, but it's not like you and me at my age, I will only get older and older, even so, in the end, I don't necessarily have to wait for what I want."

The queen's self-deprecating words made Du Jingyi notice that something was wrong.

Doesn't it mean that the emperor and queen have a close relationship and respect each other like guests?

It seems that something is wrong when I listen to it today.

Since Mrs. Xing returned to Sui'ancheng, she has been by the queen's side for most of the day, so she naturally knows the meaning of her words.

But because other people are here, it's not easy to persuade them directly, so I can only say with relief.

"Niangniang, you are in your prime now, how can you be old?"

After listening to Mrs. Xing's words, the queen shook her head indifferently, but turned over to comfort Mrs. Xing and said.

"It's that people will get old, and so is this palace, Yun Qing doesn't have to be limited to the eyes of the world, this is the way of heaven."

Yun Qing is Mrs. Xing's maiden name.

If you are not close to you, you will never call it that.

It seems that what her husband Shangji said is true, and the two do have a very good relationship.

Compared with Du Jingyi, who was still considering the meaning of the queen's words, Mrs. Xing had a sad face, and there was a lot of worry in her eyes when she looked at the queen.

I had the heart to say something, but I didn't know how to speak, and in the end, the queen comforted her.

"Don't talk about it, you won't have to worry about it."

Then he motioned to the palace maid just now to take a jade Ruyi with gold and gems, and said to Du Jingyi.

"I summoned you today, but this palace wants to see how Yunhe's daughter-in-law is? Now that people have seen it, this palace is very satisfied, so I give you this jade Ruyi, hoping that you can live well with Rokuro in the future. ”
