109. Concubine?
For a long time, the empress dowager kept chatting with her before she even said how to punish them. The people below were kneeling impatiently, especially Gallan. Several couldn't help but massage their numb feet. Several of them had already kneeled down and became sitting. The more Gallan knelt, the worse her face became, and she kept staring at herself secretly. Her eyes were really sharp. Strangely, the tannin looked quite calm. If she blamed her for beheading, would her expression still be like this?
"Empress Dowager, try this pastry." Ziqi picked up the pastry on the table. This was just brought by Mama Rong. It was newly invented by her. It looks very exquisite and tastes crispy. It is completely colored. After eating, the empress dowager nodded. At her age, she has to protect her teeth, but after tasting this pastry, it is worth it. In fact, Mama Rong made it specifically according to the Queen Mother's preferences, and it is also suitable for this age. Teethless children can bite it~
"Mama Rong's craftsmanship has not declined at all, and she has improved." The queen mother turned her head and said to Mama Rong who had been waiting for the answer for a long time. Mama Rong smiled in an instant. She had never seen the smile before, but she felt very familiar. Xiaoshuang seemed to smile at herself like this, and every time she praised her, she really missed her a little.
"I hope the Empress likes it." Rong Mama added tea to the Empress Dowager with a smile on her face. The Empress Dowager put down the pastry, looked at the group of people, and wanted to speak, but closed it again. After seeing the Gladiola, even her mouth was crooked. Is it necessary to kill and scrape it? It was so slow that it was even more uncomfortable. Finally, a person who couldn't stand it fainted, but it seemed like he was fake dizzy, his eyes were moving, and he opened a crack from time to time.
"Are you Fei'er's concubine?" Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother's words hurt Gladiola even more as soon as she said it. At this time, her expression became even more painful and sad, and then glared at herself. Why did it matter to herself again? These two handsome men were really a disaster. When the Queen Mother saw that she actually ignored her and dared to glar at her good grandson-in-law, she suddenly became angry. But she still suppressed her, but she didn't speak anymore and asked them to continue kneeling. It would be strange if they were kneeling down like this. Thinking of this, Ziqi no longer harmed others for her personal grudges.
"Mrs. Jiang is the concubine of the Seventh Prince." Ziqi said to Deng Yue in a delicate voice. Even if he hated Ziqi talking to them, he would not be angry. Deng Yue pulled Ziqi's cold hand again and put it in the palm of his hand, and patted it gently.
"Although I'm just a concubine, I'm also a royal family after all, so I shouldn't treat people with respect? Do you think so?" The empress dowager said sternly and asked Gladiola in reverse. Gladiola bit her lip and nodded vigorously.
"Why is the eloquent bronze teeth just now?" The empress dowager seemed not going to let Gladiola go, and her expression became serious again. Now the momentum was emitting in her body was terrifying. She was really worthy of the mother of a country, and no wonder the emperor was so outstanding.
"We royals never look down on anyone, even if he is so inconspicuous, don't forget that the royal ancestors are ordinary people. Although the royal family is a noble person among people, they were once ordinary people. The person you offended today may be even older than you tomorrow. Even the higher ones, the devil is one foot taller, and the demon is one foot taller. Don't look down on anyone."
The Queen Mother said it was emotional and full of righteousness. It made sense. Rong Mama and Ziqi listened carefully, but the Queen Mother's eyes were a little sad.
"The Empress Dowager has taught me the slaves to remember it." Danning and the others spoke together. As long as Gladiola was smiling after hearing this, the Empress Dowager actually smirked. It was so strange. When Mama Rong saw the Empress Dowager looking at her in a daze, it was the first time she had seen this scene. "What are you laughing at?" Gladiola suddenly stopped laughing and asked the Empress Dowager in reverse.
"Hmph - perfunctory." The Queen Mother's answer surprised herself and Mama Rong. Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother was such a "boring" person, but she finally had a false alarm and thought that something would not have happened within the scope.
"What the Ai family said, have you heard it?" Gladiant looked at her, curled her lips and nodded. The queen mother sneered, "Speak once and listen." Gladiant's face turned dark in an instant, picked up the tea that Mama Rong had just added on the table, took it to her mouth, smelled it, and took a sip.
"What? Is this the result of your careful listening?" The empress dowager spoke slowly, lowering her eyes and looking at Gladiola. She would not be able to kill her today. She had already heard among the people that Jiang Gladiola, the daughter of General Jiang, was arrogant and arrogant, bullying the people with her identity. These words spread throughout the east, south, west and north. Although it was just the people who were talking secretly, if she had not left the palace to travel around the world, it seemed that she would not know about it. It was true that she saw this today.
After a long time, Gladiola kept silent, and I don’t know if it was because she really didn’t listen or wanted to say it. “Ziqi, tell me to Mrs. Jiang.” The empress dowager suddenly turned the question to herself.
Ziqi was stunned for a moment, and before she could react, Rong Mama opposite her winked at herself. "The Queen Mother meant that you must not look down on anyone. This person you seem ordinary today and may become famous all over the world tomorrow. If you look at him today, you may have to ask for him tomorrow.
This is what the empress dowager means. After Ziqi said that, she quickly turned her head and looked at the empress dowager, afraid that she would say the wrong meaning, so she saw the empress dowager looking at her with a smile and sighed. Madam Rong secretly gave herself a thumbs up. What's so good about this? She just said the empress dowager's meaning, at most she was a translator.
"Madam Jiang, do you understand now?" Gladiola originally wanted to turn her head away, but from his own perspective, he saw Danning poking her behind her back. Gladiola smiled and nodded. Who is this Danning?
Why even Gladiola seemed to listen to her? When she saw that she was paying attention to her, she quickly put away her vicious appearance and turned into pitifulness. She pretended to be the queen mother, right? "So let me listen, let the Ai family come to listen to your understanding." Unexpectedly, the queen mother was really persistent.
Gladiola's face looked ugly now, and her eyes looked at herself again, and it was full of, "You vixen, I'll eat you sooner or later." Her eyes couldn't help but feel cold behind her back. The weather was already cold enough.
"Mama Rong, prepare pen, ink, paper, and inkstone." Ziqi was strange when she first came here. Didn't bamboo and wooden slips be used in this era? But when she found paper, paper and meal paper that could be written... no one told her what was going on. Unexpectedly, Mama Rong brought the things the empress dowager wanted, but the empress dowager asked herself to write. "Ziqi, Ai Jia Nian, you write it down."
"yes!"
