Ming Lanruo's injury was not too serious. After the imperial doctor diagnosed and treated her and prescribed medicine, she felt much better.
"How is it? Are you feeling better, girl?" the Queen Mother's slightly cold voice sounded at the door.
Ming Lanruo was startled and instinctively wanted to stand up and salute: "See..."
"Okay, don't give this vain courtesy to the Aijia. If you are really a polite person, if the queen's people ask you to kneel, you should kneel there instead of finding a complaint against the Aijia." The Queen Mother did not want to complain.
Interrupt her politely.
Minglan smiled and said, "Haha... what about... you are not feeling well too, you should have a good rest in your room."
In fact, when she came to see the Queen Mother, in addition to wanting to see the Queen Mother's condition, she also had the idea of using the Queen Mother's help to avoid being punished by kneeling.
The Queen Mother didn't care how embarrassed she looked, she held the maid's arm and sat down.
"The Aijia knows well what kind of body they are in. You don't need to worry about it in a pretentious manner." The Queen Mother snorted coldly with a straight face.
The corners of Ming Lanruo's lips twitched. The Queen Mother's temper was also the reason why she was particularly indifferent to this old lady in her previous life.
Even if she actually expresses kindness in her actions, but...
He really has a sharp mouth, the kind that stabs people with a knife, which is comparable to Cang Qiao's yin and yang aura!
"That's what the Queen Mother said." She could only reply dryly to the old lady.
The Queen Mother looked at her with sharp eyes: "When did you, this girl, learn the medical skills of Miao Xinjiang? I haven't seen you and your father mention it before."
Ming Lanruo smiled: "My mother was born with a weak body. When my grandfather went to war, he brought a Miao doctor to treat her specially. After my mother died, my grandma took care of me. I thought it was fun at first, so I studied blindly.
, I didn’t say it everywhere…”
"If you dare to treat Ai's family blindly, you are risking your life, right?" the Queen Mother scolded unceremoniously.
Ming Lanruo choked and felt a little helpless: "Although I learned it blindly, the Miao doctor taught me carefully. In the past few years in Prince Mou's Mansion, I relied on this medical skill to take care of myself and my children, so I can survive today."
The newborn baby was in poor health and she couldn't hire a doctor, so she had to rely on herself.
The queen mother looked at her with complicated eyes: "You don't deserve this. You married the prince well back then..."
"The Queen Mother, the Queen Mother and the Prince have come to visit you." The eldest maid of Ci'an Palace bowed respectfully and interrupted the Queen Mother's words.
"Oh, this is about Cao Cao. When Cao Cao arrives, tell them to come in!" The Queen Mother smiled inexplicably.
Ming Lanruo: “…….”
If the two giant Buddhas were announced into the room where she was a wounded patient, did it mean that she had to kneel down?
But as she rolled her eyes, she suddenly thought about it again.
She is a wounded patient, so what if she doesn't kneel? The Queen Mother didn't even let herself kneel!
Ming Lanruo's little face wrinkled: "Ouch, it hurts so much!"
Then she simply lay back.
The Queen Mother glanced at her and was speechless for a moment at her shamelessness: "..."
After a while, Queen Zhou came in with Prince Shangguan Zhou.
"Seeing my mother, I heard that you were ill, and my daughter-in-law was very worried." Empress Zhou stepped forward to bless her, her beautiful and dignified face full of worry.
She was not as rigid in etiquette as other palace concubines. She used the title of an ordinary daughter-in-law, making her look kind and gentle.
Prince Shangguan Zhou was serious and bowed respectfully: "Greetings to the emperor's grandmother, are you feeling better?"
"Get up, everyone. Seeing that you are coming together, those who don't know may think they are your biological mother and son." The Queen Mother said to the two of them in a nonchalant manner.
Queen: "..."
Prince: "..."
Ming Lanruo: "Ahem..."
She forced herself to hold back her laughter until her wounds hurt!
Empress Zhou is the successor of the current emperor, the stepmother of the prince, and the biological mother of King Shangguan Hongye of Qin. The prince and King Qin are equally powerful.
However, the Queen's mother-in-law is the "mother" of all the princes, and the royal "mother and son" must do their best in front of the people of the world.
But the old lady always exposes other people's disguised characters without mercy. How on earth did she become the ultimate winner in the last palace battle?!
Ming Lanruo's cough immediately attracted the attention of Queen Zhou.
Queen Zhou looked at her tenderly and apologetically and said, "Is Princess Mourning's injury better? It's all my fault. The people in the palace said unlucky things..."
"The queen is wrong. It is obviously a birthday banquet, but it is unlucky to have people kneel in the palace road all night. Those who know it is to pay homage to her birthday, but those who don't know think it is to pay homage to the queen's mourning hall!"
While the Queen Mother was drinking tea, she abruptly interrupted Queen Zhou's words.
"Ahem, cough, cough..." Ming Lanruo was almost hurt from laughing so hard.
This old lady is really ruthless and her status is high enough, so she can do whatever she wants.
On her birthday, someone scolded her for visiting the mourning hall. Even though Empress Zhou was well-educated and capable of pretending, her face instantly became a bit ugly.
But soon she regained her gentle expression: "It's my daughter-in-law who failed to control her servants. She will definitely clean up the palace discipline!"
As she said that, she looked at Ming Lanruo apologetically: "Princess Mourning, please don't blame me."
Ming Lanruo paused, Queen Zhou was forcing her to declare that she would not pursue the matter of humiliating her in public today.
She smiled weakly: "My daughter is a sin-bearing person. It is the grace of Your Majesty and Your Majesty to be able to enter the palace to celebrate your birthday."
Seeing the expression on Queen Zhou's face that showed satisfaction with her knowledge, Ming Lanruo changed the topic -
"But there are people in Fengkun Palace who dare to commit suicide for the empress. This is because the empress has a gentle temper and wants to get on top of the empress. That's why they dare to do this. I don't know who is so capable. He relies on the power of others."
Empress Zhou's face froze, Ming Lanruo's hat was too big, and she was aggressively trying to force her to deal with Ruan Shanggong and other confidants!
Ming Lanruo pretended not to see Queen Zhou's gloomy gaze and drank the medicine slowly.
Since she wanted to step out of Prince Mourning Palace with Xiao Xi, she could not tolerate those people in the capital to insult and trample her and her children.
It is most appropriate to operate on the people around the queen, so that no one will dare to abuse her and Xiao Xi casually anymore!
The Empress Dowager said calmly: "Girl Lan Ruo is right. Today they can pretend to be powerful, but they can ride on you tomorrow!"
Queen Zhou finally had to kneel down and whispered: "The mother-in-law is right, my daughter-in-law will deal with them when she gets back."
"Come on, you should go back now, don't you have to have a dinner?" the Queen Mother said impatiently.
The Queen clenched her palms in anger, and said with a smile without changing her face: "The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess are waiting to visit Princess Mou. The Crown Princess and Princess Mou are biological sisters, so why not let them get together."
When the Queen Mother heard this, she simply said: "Okay, just help the Ai family out!"
Before Ming Lanruo could stop her, the queen had already come over to help the queen mother go out.
Suddenly only Prince Shangguan Zhou and Ming Lanruo were left in the room.
Facing the husband she had shared the same bed with in her previous life, Ming Lanruo felt complicated and did not want to be alone with him at all.
Shangguan Zhou suddenly walked over to her and sat down, looking at her with gentle and burning eyes.
Ming Lanruo hasn't decided what to say yet.
He raised his hand and held Ming Lanruo's hand: "Does it hurt?"
It seemed that the prince who was famous for his politeness and courtesy in front of all the officials was not him.
The slender figure standing in the darkness looked at everything in the room with cold eyes, especially the intertwined hands of the prince and Ming Lanruo.
Seeing this, Yun Ni said uneasily: "Lord Governor."
Cang Qiao raised his hand expressionlessly to signal her to be silent.
