The Queen Mother stared at the back of the queen who was in a hurry, sighed deeply for no reason, and the whole person exuded a sense of powerlessness.

Shen Qinghe stood silently to the side, and the entire Ci'an Hall gradually quieted down, only to hear the slight sound of the palace maid walking under the corridor quickly, all of which were sought, but they couldn't really hear it.

"The mourning family really doesn't know whether it was good or bad to choose the queen to enter the palace at the beginning." The warm yellow sunlight outside the window shone through the window bones on the Queen Mother's gorgeous hair, and even the golden hairpin also emitted a strange light.

The Queen Mother suddenly sighed heavily: "It's been two years since the emperor and queen got married, but the queen still can't occupy her husband's heart, which is a bad thing for a woman in the deep palace, even if she is the queen!" Hey, I should have picked and chosen more in the family at the beginning, instead of hastily choosing the youngest daughter of the elder brother of the mourning family. The queen's temperament is too arrogant, and the saint doesn't have much temperament to coax people. If she is like this, sooner or later she will suffer. ”

The Queen Mother should not have told Shen Qinghe these words, but the Queen Mother's previous personal female official was also released from the palace because of the Queen Mother's kindness and lived for the rest of her life, so now, Shen Qinghe is the only one who can talk to the Queen Mother in the Ci'an Palace.

In the huge palace, staying is a lifetime, the palace maid can still leave the palace when she is old, and the concubine is trapped in this Quartet for life and death, Shen Qinghe can understand the heart of the queen mother who wants to confide, but she must always remember her identity, what to say, what not to say, what kind of words to say, what kind of words not to say.

The queen is the niece of the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother said it, but she couldn't allow them to put their beaks.

"Queen Mother, the queen mother passed the year of the princess, and the saint got married, according to the folk saying, the girl who has only passed the cardamom year, the world always needs you to teach something. I want the slave to say that the queen is a woman from a family, and there is no shortage of looks and talents, and you have to teach them personally. Why should you worry about it? Shen Qinghe stepped forward slowly and glanced at the honeysuckle guarding the door.

Who doesn't like to listen to nice words, just like the Queen Mother is already the first person in the harem, she is still smiling when Shen Qinghe said in a few words: "You are used to saying something nice to make the mourning family happy, no wonder Shen An took the trouble to teach you to make you the position of the palace commander." ”

"Aunt Wang's teaching to the slave maid, the slave maid will remember it in her heart for a lifetime, so that she can truly serve the queen mother well." Shen Qinghe bowed his head: "The slave is grateful to Aunt Wang. ”

"That's right, people in the palace, you should always be grateful, otherwise, if you lose your conscience, you can't do it." The Queen Mother's eyes were smiling, but the smile obviously did not reach the bottom of her eyes: "But some people just can't do it." ”

Who is the Queen Mother talking about?

Shen Qinghe didn't know, but she only said a few words, which could be regarded as words in her heart, if it weren't for this, in this deep palace that eats people without blinking, she made a mistake and didn't know how many times she died.

Shen Qinghe helped the Queen Mother to the dining table, Honeysuckle had already put all the lunch up, in order to cooperate with the Queen Mother's vegetarian rules during this period of time, all the dishes were mainly light, and there was no meat.

Shen Qinghe glanced at a few dishes on the table, put his mind at ease, and sandwiched the tofu skin buns into the Queen Mother's bowl. Tofu skin buns, as the name suggests, are made of tofu skin wrapped with some fungus, greens, mushrooms and other fillings, plus oil, salt, ginger shreds steamed into a fresh character.

The Queen Mother took a sip, felt that the taste was good, and was about to speak, when a singing harmony suddenly came from outside the hall: "The saint has arrived." ”

"Why is this hour coming?" The Queen Mother was surprised, and watched Xiao Qi stride into the inner hall, and the people who followed behind her were all guarding the door.

Shen Qinghe frowned, and curtsied with the palace maid in the hall: "The slave and maid give the saint a greeting, and the saint is safe." ”

"Get up." Xiao Qi waved his hand casually, and he bowed his hand to the Queen Mother, and said loudly: "The son asks the queen mother to say goodbye, and the queen mother is safe." ”

The Queen Mother was overjoyed, and without waiting for Xiao to finish praying, she hurriedly said: "It's about lunchtime, why did the emperor come over?" Hurry up and sit down at the mourner's house. ”

"Erchen ate the butterfly crisp in the mother's harem, although it was sent by the queen, but Erchen also thought of the queen mother, and did not come to greet the queen mother for many days, and hoped that the queen mother would forgive her sins." Xiao Qi smiled on his face, and glanced at Shen Qinghe quietly: "It seems that the son-in-law is really here, so it's better to let the son-in-law accompany the queen mother to eat." ”

"That's good, of course." The Queen Mother and Xiao Qi are not biological mothers and sons, there are few such intimate moments, not to mention that Xiao Qi deliberately took time out of her time to accompany her to eat, the Queen Mother was overjoyed, and caught a glimpse of Shen Qinghe who gave a new pair of dishes and chopsticks out of the corner of her eyes.

Shen Qinghe sent the dishes and chopsticks, and secretly wondered if he wanted to let the small kitchen cook some new dishes, the Queen Mother was a vegetarian, but did Xiao Qi also follow the vegetarian diet?

Without waiting for Shen Qinghe to react, Xiao Qi had already eaten, and he didn't forget to sigh: "The food in the mother's harem is more delicate, and even the vegetarian food is very delicious, it seems that the people in the mother's harem are bothered." ”

"When you say this, the mourning family has to say something." The Queen Mother saw that Xiao Qi was eating happily, and said with a smile: "Qinghe has always done things decently, and the mourning family is inseparable from her now." ”

"Really?" Xiao Qi smiled meaningfully, the hand holding the silver chopsticks was lightly rested, and the black sleeves were swept away, bringing a wave of wind mixed with the fragrance of ambergris, which hit Shen Qinghe's calm face.

Xiao Qi looked at the person in front of him who had a good face, but never showed any expression, and he thought of teasing for no reason: "When the queen mother said this, I felt more and more uncomfortable in my heart, why is there no one in the palace who does things so properly?" Chen Fu, you have to learn from Lady Shen carefully, otherwise, I will change your position as the chief eunuch of the Qinzheng Palace. ”

"Oh, Holy Lord, the slave is serving you with all his heart, can you not do without the slave." Chen Fu sighed twice, slightly exaggerated.

The Queen Mother couldn't help laughing: "Chen Fu has served you since he was a child, and he can't compare to Qinghe, is it possible that the people here in the mourning family have to go to your Qinzheng Palace?" ”

The Queen Mother's words were a joke, but the corners of Xiao Qishi's mouth were still smiling, and slowly pursed into a line, his eyes were deep, and with the help of drinking tea, his eyes looked at Shen Qinghe's fingertips hanging down on the side of his skirt, and curled up slightly, it seems that she has not been indifferent all the time, and she is an outsider in this hall.

After Xiao Qi realized this, his mood improved again for no reason, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Shen Qinghe and said, "Queen Mother, the son is just joking." The Diligent Hall is not a good place to go. I guess the female officer next to you still doesn't look down on it. ”

After Xiao Qi finished speaking, the old god was looking at Shen Qinghe, and her straight back finally reacted: "The palace maids and servants who serve the saint are the most well-behaved people in the palace, and the slaves and maids have stayed in the Ci'an Hall for a long time, and the queen mother is sympathetic to the slaves and maids, so that the slaves and maids are really afraid of losing the rules in front of the saints." ”

Shen Qinghe's words were very nice, Xiao Qi smiled meaningfully, but he didn't continue the topic, he snorted: "I said that I would go to the queen's palace at noon, and the hour is almost now, the queen mother, where the minister will retire first?" ”

"How much did it take to leave in a hurry?" The Queen Mother frowned, estimating that Xiao Qi was not used to vegetarian food, and said distressedly: "There are newly made plum blossom cakes and sugar steamed cheese in the small kitchen of the mourning family, and a bowl of golden swift bird's nest is added, and there is no hurry to go to the front hall to use some." ”

The Queen Mother glanced at the surroundings and said with a smile: "Qinghe, you lead the saint up, mourn the family here, and wait for a few honeysuckles." ”
