Chapter four hundred and twentieth, history repeats itself
The scene in front of me was very familiar, so familiar that it felt like history was repeating itself.
The Queen Mother looked at the crying Ming He and the eldest princess with a big head. Following Ming He and wiping her tears was her granddaughter Xu Anjiao.
Sitting on the other side is An and the eldest princess. Although her clothes are a bit messy, she is at least decent. Next to An and the eldest princess is Yu Xijiao. Standing behind An and the eldest princess, the delicate little
His face was as calm as water.
For a moment, the Queen Mother almost felt that she had seen the wrong person...
"Come here, help the two eldest princesses freshen up." The Queen Mother stretched out her hand and pressed her head, and ordered.
The eldest princess of the royal family has always shown the dignity of the royal family. How can she act like a little daughter and behave like this? How can the dignity of the royal family exist?
If something happens, you can't just sit down and talk about it calmly.
Several palace maids came over and helped the two eldest princesses go down to freshen up. Xu Anjiao and Yu Xijiao stayed behind.
"Tell me, what's going on?" the Queen Mother asked, her face darkening.
Xu Anjiao first told the story in detail, from what happened when she arrived at the Xuanping Hou Mansion. Just now in the carriage, she and her grandmother had already discussed how to say it.
From the time she was scolded by Yu Xijiao and went back to cry, her grandmother was so angry that she went to the Xuanping Hou Mansion and met An and the eldest princess. After that, An and the eldest princess beat her grandmother...
Xu Anjiao's words were all exaggerated to express the innocence of herself and Princess Minghe. After speaking, she covered her face and started crying: "I beg the Queen Mother to make the decision for my daughter and my grandmother. My grandmother only came to ask what happened.
I didn’t expect, I didn’t expect... it would... be like this."
Xu Anjiao burst into tears.
Looking at Xu Anjiao who was crying just like Ming and the eldest princess, the Queen Mother felt her head hurt more and more. She turned to Yu Xijiao. Compared with Xu Anjiao, Yu Xijiao was much calmer. Although she was younger, she had a calm demeanor and waited.
When Xu Anjiao cried, she was calm and not panicked at all.
"Tell me about it."
"The Queen Mother, a series of very strange things happened in my house today. The daughters of the Prime Minister Ming's Mansion, the Prime Minister Yu's Mansion, and the Minister of Etiquette's Mansion were all there, but they didn't say anything. Instead, County Master Xu jumped out and rushed in front.
, kept shouting and making trouble, as if they were afraid that nothing would happen to our house..."
Reported by Yu Xijiao.
The matter was with her. Xu Anjiao was desperate to die. From the incident to the last time she left, she never calmed down. Then she involved Ming and the eldest princess, and aggressively went to the house to cause trouble. Fortunately, her grandmother was there and saw the clamor.
The eldest princess Minghe refused to give up, so her grandmother had no choice but to drag her into the palace.
Maybe she used too much force, so Ming and the eldest princess sat on the ground. Later, when she saw that An and the eldest princess ignored her, she jumped down and hit An and the eldest princess.
After finishing the matter, Yu Xijiao solemnly bowed to the Queen Mother: "If the Queen Mother doesn't believe it, you can come with Miss Xuanming, Miss Yu Er, and the daughter of the Minister of Rites."
She spoke frankly, and even brought up Ming Lan, Yu Lizhu and others afterwards. There was a hint of anger in her calm eyes. Compared with Xu Anjiao's cries, which were inconsistent in preface and subtitles, it was more reasonable and well-founded.
"You're talking nonsense. This weird thing happened in your house. I don't know if it's true or not." Xu Anjiao didn't listen well and hurriedly glared at Yu Xijiao with tears in her eyes.
Minglan would not speak for her about today's matter. Yu Lizhu thought it was okay before, but not this time. If Yu Lizhu hadn't disturbed the situation, she would not have jumped out to interfere in it. As for the affairs of the Ministry of Rites,
That one, you can tell at a glance that he is a wallflower.
Wherever everyone goes, she goes.
"County Master Xu, you know for yourself if you are talking nonsense. I just feel strange that I met County Master Xu for the first time today. Why did I offend County Master Xu? County Master Xu has been targeting me. Why? Because of my grandmother
, or is it because of my father, or simply because of me?"
Yu Xijiao raised her eyes and asked.
"You...you're talking nonsense." Xu Anjiao's aura immediately weakened a lot, her face turned red, and she felt the Queen Mother's scrutinizing gaze falling on her.
"Did I steal something from Lord Xu, or did my grandmother steal something from Ming and the eldest princess? Or is it that the two families have had a feud for a long time and you have been unable to let it go, and I just came to Beijing without knowing it?" Yu Xijiao
He continued to guess, tilting his head, with a bit of confusion and confusion.
She just came to Beijing, so she didn't know anything.
"You...how could you be talking such nonsense? Your second sister and I have always gotten along very well." Although the Queen Mother had not spoken, Xu Anjiao knew that she was being watched all the time. When Yu Xijiao asked, she hurriedly explained.
"If you have a good relationship with my second sister, but have a bad relationship with me, then it's because of me? I just arrived in Beijing, and I asked myself that today is the first time I've met County Master Xu. I don't know where I offended County Master Xu.
, it is indeed my fault that you are like this because of me, but I would like to ask the county leader to make it clear that if it is really me who has done something sorry for you, I will definitely apologize."
Yu Xi asked softly.
Xu Anjiao's face changed drastically and her fingers trembled.
"Mr. Xu, if there is really something that I did, and I am sorry for you, please make it clear." Seeing that she was speechless, Yu Xijiao said with a serious look on her face.
Xu Anjiao was nervous, and there was a faint cold sweat on her forehead. She didn't know what to say. She was afraid of causing the Queen Mother to misunderstand. How did Yu Xijiao, a cheap girl, bring this topic here...
Shouldn't we talk about the fight between An and the eldest princess and her grandmother at this time?
The sound of light footsteps came from the palace door, and a soft voice broke the strange silence in the palace: "The Queen Mother, I have made some soup. You can use it first, okay?"
Zhang Wanyin came to the Queen Mother and bowed first, then took a small cup of medicinal food from the hand of the palace maid and placed it in front of the Queen Mother. She smiled softly and said: "The Queen Mother, your health is important. Don't be angry and hurt your spleen and lungs. Finish the drink first."
No matter how hard you ask, you can't get angry and hurt your body."
"You kid..." Seeing Zhang Wanyin, the Queen Mother showed a smile on her face.
Zhang Wanyin opened the lid, and the medicinal food smelled just right: "Empress Dowager, don't be angry. The two eldest princesses will come over after they have freshened up. If something happens, don't be anxious. You have to face the eldest princess."
After saying this, the Queen Mother nodded: "It's better for you kid to save your worries. It would be great if everyone were like you."
After saying that, his eyes glanced at Xu Anjiao and Yu Xijiao. Needless to say, Xu Anjiao was really not good enough and was not worthy of her grandson. Yu Xijiao, who just thought she was OK, originally thought she was good, but now compared with Zhang Wanyin
After all, I'm still a little behind, because I'm still young and don't know the general situation that well.
"Empress Dowager, you praise Wanyin so much, Wanyin is so proud." Zhang Wanyin smiled and served the Queen Mother to her meal.
There was not much in the cup of medicated food. After using most of it, the Queen Mother put it down. The palace maid took the medicine away. Zhang Wanyin took the wet wipe from another palace maid and handed it to the Queen Mother: "The Queen Mother is using it well. It's salty."
It doesn’t matter if it’s bland, if you feel it’s not good, Wanyin will adjust it appropriately next time when it’s stewed.”
"It's very suitable." The Queen Mother said comfortably. She must be the girl she raised by her side. No matter how you look at it, she is pleasing to the eye. Looking at these two girls fighting like this, the Queen Mother really feels uncomfortable.
If this kind of thing is talked about too much, it will be a scandal for the royal family. Is it necessary to bring it to her face?
It was like this before, and it is still like this now. It is completely disrespectful to the royal family to bother them with such things all day long.
After using the wet wipes, Zhang Wanyin took the tea cup from the palace maid's hand and placed it in front of the Queen Mother. This time, there was no use saying anything. She smiled and stepped back behind the Queen Mother, took the small hammer from the palace lady's hand, and beat it gently.
The Queen Mother's shoulders are neither light nor heavy, which makes the Queen Mother feel more comfortable.
Among the girls of this generation, the Queen Mother felt that Zhang Wanyin was the real lady, and the rest were really... more and more distasteful.
The Queen Mother closed her eyes slightly and did not intend to talk to the two girls. She fell asleep and waited for the two who were grooming behind her to come out.
Xu Anjiao pursed her lips and looked at Zhang Wanyin with jealousy in her eyes. In fact, at the very beginning, her grandmother fell in love with Prince Duan, but the Queen Mother married Zhang Wanyin and became Princess Duan. With Zhang Wanyin's weight in the Queen Mother's relationship, even in the future,
It doesn't matter if King Duan doesn't favor her. She is the royal concubine and has the support of the Queen Mother, so her position is unshakable.
If it weren't for Zhang Wanyin, if it wasn't for Yu Yuxi, my grandmother would actually be more optimistic about King Duan...
After trying hard to calm down the anxiety in her heart, Xu Anjiao lowered her head and squeezed the handkerchief tightly. It was not Prince Duan's problem at the moment. She was afraid that Prince Qi would come over if he got the news.
She didn't expect that the matter would turn out like this.
Yu Xijiao also lowered her head calmly. After Princess Mingqing entered the door, she lowered her head. In her ears, she heard the soft laughter of Zhang Wanyin and the Queen Mother. When talking to Zhang Wanyin, the Queen Mother was more like a kind person.
Elder, she and Xu Anjiao just stood there and didn't ask them any more questions.
Is the Queen Mother expressing her dissatisfaction with them?
When she was talking just now, the Queen Mother was most dissatisfied with Xu Anjiao. Then Princess Mingqing came in. She didn't seem to say a word to them, but she seemed to be comparing herself with them everywhere. The timing of her entrance was good, and just as Xu Anjiao said embarrassingly
I'm speechless, what a coincidence!
The sound of footsteps came, and the maids helped the two eldest princesses who had freshly dressed and put on makeup to come out. After calming down just now, the two people at least did not look at each other harshly. On the surface, they still looked dignified and decent, very royal style.
.
The two men stepped forward to salute the Queen Mother again, and then sat down on one side.
The Queen Mother slowly opened her eyes, looked at this, then that, and finally her eyes fell on Minghe, the eldest princess. She frowned and asked slightly displeased: "Minghe, please speak first.
After all, it's wrong for you to knock on the door. What do you want to do this time?"
What do you want to do this time?
In one sentence, the two people who asked the question were shocked...
