Concubine Xian coaxed Song Yuchu and ordered people to take him down. Her eyes fell on the little wooden horse sent by Wu Xun, her face became gloomy and scary, and after a moment, she ordered in a cold voice, "Take this thing out."
"Your Majesty, do you need to ask the imperial doctor to check it out?" Hong Ju asked cautiously.
"No need, Lord Qingyang is not that stupid yet. Since she gave it to Chu'er in front of everyone, if there is something in it, she will never be able to get away with it." Concubine Xian said tiredly.
"Since there is nothing wrong with this thing, then why did the empress lose such a big temper just now..." Concubine Xian looked at her, and Hong Ju immediately lowered her head and said, "I'm too talkative, I deserve to die!"
"Okay, please step back." Concubine Xian didn't bother to argue with a palace maid, and waved her hand to ask her to step down. Hong Ju felt like she was being pardoned and hurriedly backed out.
As soon as the New Year is over, spring is ushered in, but in this early spring, a spring snow is ushered in. Wu Xun came out of the snow. His clothes were still simple but elegant. When he saw Danzhu guarding the door,
She frowned slightly and asked, "Isn't that girl getting up yet?"
"Yesterday, the young lady pestered the young master to listen to stories and played late. Now she is sleeping soundly. I guess she just woke up now. Huamei and Daimei are waiting inside." Huamei and Daimei are the two people Wu Xun is looking for for Ji Mianxi.
Maid, she is smart and smart.
"This girl, Xi'er, is becoming more and more unruly. I will definitely punish her well later."
"Madam, you are not willing to give up." Danzhu teased. What their wife is best at is duplicity. Although she was a little strict with Ji Mianxi since she was a child, she still loves this little daughter the most in her heart. In addition, Ji Mingnan held this daughter in her hands before.
In my heart, I treat it like a pain in my eyes and pamper her. Who in Ji's house doesn't care about this cute and smart young lady now? Not to mention this madam.
Danzhu opened the curtain, and Wu Xun saw Huamei standing in front of the bed, squatting half-crouching, coaxing softly, "Miss, it's getting late, and you and your wife will go to the palace to pay respects later."
The ball nestled in the quilt was motionless. Dai Mei saw Wu Xun about to salute. Wu Xun waved his hand and told Hu Mei to step back. He picked up her skirt and sat beside the bed. She patted the ball gently and said,
"You girl, it's already been three hours a day and you're still lying in bed. You don't have to worry about being bored like this." As he said that, he gently pulled away the quilt, revealing a slightly messy little head. Ji Mianxi's eyes were still slightly closed.
, it seems that she hasn't woken up yet, and she murmured, "Mother, please let me sleep a little longer, I'm so sleepy." Her honest and cute appearance made the maids in the room couldn't help but lower their heads and smile.
As soon as Wu Xun stretched out his hand, Dan Zhu handed the hot towel to her hand. The hot towel was pressed against Ji Mianxi's face. Wu Xun wiped her patiently. Ji Mianxi felt some warmth on her face and waved her hand unhappily.
"Xie'er, don't sleep. Have you forgotten that we are going to the palace together today?" Wu Xun handed the towel to the maid behind him, reached out and pinched Ji Mianxi's little nose lovingly, and said with a smile.
The girl, who was still sleepy at first, slowly opened her eyes and yawned when she heard that she was entering the palace, and then she felt energetic.
Yuxue is a cute little girl who is six or seven years old. Her face is so pink and tender that her skin can be pinched with water. She also has baby fat. Her eyes are big and round, clear and bright, like two translucent black gems.
Her eyes were spinning and full of spiritual energy. Since she had just woken up, there was still water in the corners of her eyes. She blinked twice and saw Wu Xun sitting in front of her bed. She suddenly jumped into Wu Xun's arms.
He shouted: "Mother!"
Wu Xun smiled and hugged her with his backhand, then pulled the quilt and wrapped it around her body. He smiled softly and said, "What's wrong with you this early in the morning? You acted like a baby just after you woke up."
"My daughter wants to ask her mother what's wrong." The girl said happily, "My mother doesn't come here very often on weekdays. Today I saw my mother when I woke up. Of course my daughter is happy."
Wu Xun felt distressed for a while after hearing this. She usually neglected her children a lot. He stretched out his hand to pinch her little face and said with a smile, "I promise to come here regularly in the future."
After hearing this, Ji Mianxi's smart eyes rolled slightly and she said with a smile, "Actually, mother doesn't need to come here all the time." After all, she wanted to sleep more, and it would be nice to have a little bit of maternal love from time to time.
Wu Xun naturally understood what his daughter was thinking, and patted her head gently, "Okay, get up quickly."
Although the New Year has passed, Ji Mianxi still dressed up very festively, wearing a red brocade skirt and a circle of white fine fox fur. Danzhu gave her two small buns, which were simple and cute, just like a painting.
Like a virgin coming out of the house. After washing up, Ji Mianxi looked at herself with satisfaction, saw Wu Xun leaning on the soft couch, and ran over, "Mother, will my brother come with us today?"
"Of course." Wu Xun stroked his daughter's bun and smiled, "Hurry up and eat, your brother will be here soon."
After a while, a rough lady came in and said, "Madam, the carriage is ready." Wu Xun nodded, looked at his daughter who was enjoying a delicious meal, and asked casually, "Where is the young master?"
"Yinchen sent a reply saying that the young master is ready," Danzhu said.
"Mom, are we leaving?" Ji Mianxi said with a somewhat unclear enunciation while still eating a piece of snacks in her mouth, "But I'm not full yet."
"There's no rush, you eat slowly." Wu Xun walked up to her, took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth and said softly, "No one is trying to fight you, why are you eating in such a hurry." Ji Mianxi glared at her.
His big eyes stared blankly at Wu Xun. Could it be that her mother took the wrong medicine today? Why was she so gentle to her? It was not like her mother's style. But when she thought about it, her mother was indeed very kind.
I love her, except for letting her copy medical books every now and then.
The carriage swayed all the way towards the palace gate in the morning light. In the quiet morning, because of the snow, there was no usual shouting, only the sound of soldiers patrolling. Ji Ernuo, dressed in a light blue brocade robe, gathered in a circle
The young man's black hair, his cool and handsome features were already opening up. He was sitting alone on the side of the carriage, his face was a little cold, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Ji Mianxi, who usually liked playing with Ji Ernuo the most, was also at this time.
She sat obediently next to Wu Xun and glanced at Ji Ernuo from time to time. She didn't know why his brother was so unhappy so early in the morning. She originally wanted to pester him to play in the snow with her, but it seemed impossible now.
Wu Xun looked at Ji Ernuo's face and asked with a smile, "Nuo'er, why didn't you rest last night? Why is your face so ugly? But Xi'er made trouble for you last night?"
"No." The young man said a little awkwardly, and when he saw Ji Mianxi looking at him with an aggrieved face, as a sister-in-law, his heart immediately softened, and he said, "My child is thinking that entering the palace is not a matter of etiquette.
I know too much, I’m afraid I’ll make a mistake and cause trouble to my mother.”
"You are worrying too much about this. My son Wu Xun's etiquette is naturally good. Who in the Xuanyue Dynasty dares to say otherwise!" Wu Xun said domineeringly. This was the first time Ji Ernuo had seen such a domineering Wu Xun.
, even though there are thousands of things I want to ask in my heart, I can only hold them in my heart.
When they were still some distance away from the Yunxiao Palace where the Queen Mother lived, Wu Xun ordered the driver to stop. Ji Ernuo jumped out first and took Ji Mianxi out of the car. Wu Xun led her up the steps, followed by Ji Ernuo on the right.
The family of three was very dazzling when walking in the palace. Occasionally, the maids and eunuchs passing by would look at them secretly and then lower their heads.
In this ice and snow, there was an old woman waiting at the gate of the palace. When she saw Wuxun walking up, she hurriedly greeted her, "I have met the Lord of Qingyang County."
But before her knees bent, Wu Xun had already helped her up, "Aunt Ding, you are an old man next to the Queen Mother, so we don't need these false courtesy between us."
Aunt Ding glanced at the two children beside Wu Xun with a smile, and said, "Madam, please take the young lady and the young master in quickly. The Queen Mother got up early this morning and ordered people to prepare the children's favorite pastries. This
The time is waiting.”
Wu Xun smiled at Aunt Ding and walked up the stairs with a pair of children. As soon as they reached the door, a palace maid opened the door curtain. Empress Dowager Dening was sitting on the main seat. She had already stretched her neck to look at her. She saw a plain-colored palace lady.
Pretending to be Wuxun, holding a pink and cute girl in his hand, followed by a handsome young man, very harmonious and very eye-catching.
"I have met the Queen Mother."
The two children were not afraid of the stage, and they performed a very standard etiquette generously. Empress Dowager Dening's eyebrows were full of smiles, looking at the red dumplings in the hall, "Quick, get up, come here, come to the emperor
Grandma, come here..."
The words "royal grandmother" made Wu Xun's expression change slightly. Ji Mianxi was not timid either. She walked up to the Queen Mother Dening, tilted her head and asked, "Are you my mother's mother?"
"Xie'er, you can't have no rules."
Queen Mother Dening glanced at Wu Xun and said with a smile, "The Ai family is not your mother's mother, but you can also call her the imperial grandmother of the Ai family."
Ji Mianxi nodded as if she understood, and said with a child's tenderness and simplicity, "Xie'er understands, you are the kind old man that my mother often said, just like... a Bodhisattva."
Empress Dowager Dening was very happy after hearing this, Wu Xun shook her head fondly in secret, when had she ever said such a thing, this girl flattered him and she didn't forget to drag him along.
Queen Mother Dening happily held her in her arms, looked at the young man standing next to Wu Xun with a pair of kind eyes, and said kindly, "My child, why don't you come over."
Ji Ernuo walked forward slowly. Queen Mother Dening looked at him with satisfaction and said, "He is really a good boy."
"Thank you, Queen Mother, for your compliment."
Queen Mother Dening frowned slightly and said unhappily, "You should also call this girl Xi'er the Royal Grandmother of the Ai family."
