Queen Tao slowly turned around and looked at Xia Lishuang with a rare expression of indifference.
Xia Lishuang rushed forward and finally saw clearly what was in Queen Tao's hand, and immediately twitched the corner of her mouth.
Queen Tao turned around expressionlessly and looked at her son.
"You think I'm going to burn charcoal to commit suicide?"
Xia Lishuang: "..."
What was in the charcoal basin was none other than the Anguo history that had been burned to a heap of ashes.
Xia Lishuang opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything.
"Queen mother...you..."
Queen Tao clapped her hands, stood up, and slapped Xia Lishuang on the shoulder.
"What are you here for?"
Xia Lishuang was startled by Queen Tao's sudden appearance, "I, I, I... I'm here to eat?"
Queen Tao raised her eyebrows, "When did I come to treat you to dinner?"
Xia Lishuang's eyes twitched and she quickly looked at Qiu He behind her. Qiu He was trembling and said, "Your Highness, please forgive me! It was the princess who asked me to lie to you!"
After saying that, he actually ran out in a hurry...
There was silence in the room, and the mother and son stood looking at each other. After a long while, they suddenly laughed.
"Thank you for still thinking about me, my mother! Don't worry, I'll let the small kitchen cook the food. Sit down and eat!"
Queen Tao's tone was calm, and she still looked like the old god was there.
But Xia Lishuang suddenly felt that there seemed to be something different about her.
"Mother, you..."
"Where's Ran Ran? Didn't she come with you?" Queen Tao looked as usual, sat down and poured a cup of tea for Xia Lishuang.
Xia Lishuang opened her mouth subconsciously. His Royal Highness, who was still standing in front of the Tai Chi Palace in the morning to show his authority in front of all the officials, now turned into a young boy.
"Ran Ran has left the palace to do some business. I will come to accompany you tomorrow!" Xia Lishuang finally smiled and helped Queen Tao sit down.
"Queen Mother, are you... not angry anymore?" Xia Lishuang went to squeeze Queen Tao's shoulders with a shy look on her face.
Queen Tao sneered, "You're so angry! Are you angry that you don't recognize me as your mother for the sake of your wife?"
Xia Lishuang shrank her neck and did not dare to speak.
Queen Tao still deliberately kept a straight face, but there was a hint of a smile on her lips.
"Okay, okay, it's all over, why are you so angry..." Queen Tao sighed, with a little wistfulness in her eyes.
The food came quickly. Both of them were sick, but fortunately they were not seriously ill. They were more depressed. Now that they started talking, they were much better.
"Treat Ran Ran well from now on! The Wen family behind her... no matter how rampant they are in the future, they must keep a line as a human being!" Empress Tao was eating her food and suddenly said, "Later, go and write a letter to your father. When will you do it?"
Let’s have the wedding!”
Xia Lishuang was holding the rice bowl, and a mouthful of food completely choked her throat.
He didn't even know how to face the sudden surprise, so he could only nod his head.
"My son...My son, I obey! I will definitely treat Ran Ran well in the future!"
Empress Tao then showed a satisfied smile, "By the way, I heard you say before that Juyuanfang's spears and bows are pretty good... Maybe you can also order a set for your mother someday?"
Xia Lishuang: "..."
This shock was so huge that Xia Lishuang shuddered and had to test it out.
"Mother, are you okay?"
Empress Tao still put on her signature deadpan expression, "It's okay...it just reminds me of when I was young. Can I practice some martial arts?"
"Okay! Okay! It's okay. I will definitely send you the best spears and bows! You can make them with great effort!" Xia Lishuang finally felt relieved. Looking at Queen Tao, a warm current rose in her heart.
Today, he finally understood his mother somewhat.
The queen mother who worked hard in the palace and was as cautious as walking on thin ice was just forced to wear a mask. Only the woman in front of her who no longer clings to the past can be admired by thousands of people. If given the chance, she will definitely be able to carry the glory.
