"Come here, go and invite the Emperor." The Queen Mother said sternly. She didn't even listen to the Queen's explanation and directly ordered people to invite the Emperor.
Something happened in the palace that brought the Queen Mother to attention. This was a big deal. The Emperor had already heard the news and had already brought people over. He was meeting the chamberlain sent by the Queen Mother.
After entering the main hall and looking at the people kneeling on the ground, the emperor's face darkened.
"I have met the Queen Mother." When he was in front of the Queen Mother, the Emperor regained his composure and bowed deeply to the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother snorted coldly and looked unkind.
The emperor sat down on a chair on the side, glanced at the people kneeling on the ground and said: "Mother, why are you so rich and powerful that you are angry with juniors like them?"
"Don't be angry. Why are you angry? The Ai family is old. I didn't know how long they would live. But I didn't expect that some people might not be able to tolerate the Ai family living for too long. They think the Ai family is an eyesore." The Queen Mother said angrily.
"Mother, where did you start talking about this?" the emperor said hurriedly.
"Where do we start? Let's start from the past. Your Majesty, there are people who can't tolerate people around the Ai family." The Queen Mother said coldly.
Others didn't understand this, but the emperor understood it immediately and glanced at the few people present.
The Queen Mother waved to a chamberlain, told the story exactly as it was, and added to the investigation just now. Although she did not directly testify against Feng Yuanshuang, she also implicitly stated that Feng Yuanshuang was the most suspicious.
The queen's heart was pounding. She wanted to speak but didn't dare. She could only grit her teeth hard, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
"Mother, I will still investigate this matter, and I will definitely give an explanation to my mother." The emperor said softly.
"Not only the Ai family, but also Wanyin and Xijiao." The Queen Mother said, "No matter who they hurt, the Ai family will feel heartbroken. Wanyin has been with the Ai family since she was a child and was raised by the Ai family.
, now she is going to marry Prince Duan, and will be the future Princess Duan. As for Xi Jiao, she is the granddaughter of An He, and now she will be the granddaughter-in-law of the Ai family. If Yu'er is not around, this child must be taken good care of by the Ai family.
Otherwise, when Ri Yuer comes back, the Ai family will have no face to face him."
"What the Queen Mother said is absolutely true. I will definitely investigate this matter again." The Emperor nodded, then his eyes moved around the kneeling people, and finally fell on Feng Yuanshuang.
Feng Yuanshuang's whole body tensed up. She had been hit by the emperor before, and her forehead was still not healed. When she heard the emperor's voice, she couldn't help but tremble.
"The origin of the silk thread is the Sixth Princess and the Seventh Princess. Originally, Mingqing's marriage took precedence, so why did the two of them come forward to snatch it? What does the Queen think?"
"It's my concubine's fault. I originally thought that the two princesses were recovering from their injuries in the palace, and their marriage was already underway. Now it was inconvenient to go out, so I asked them to prepare embroidery first and prepared some more silk threads for them, but I didn't expect them.
The amount of two is so much." The queen said, she had to admit this, and it was her intention to let the two princesses use more silk threads.
"What does the Queen think should be done?" the Emperor asked coldly.
"The sixth princess and the seventh princess will be fined together." The queen thought for a moment and then added, "The seventh princess made more mistakes. I will definitely be disciplined and disciplined."
When things get to this point, you have to admit your small mistakes.
"The queen is right, get up and speak first." The emperor said calmly.
A maid came over to help the queen and asked her to sit down on the other side of the queen mother.
"Wanyin and Xijiao, please get up too," the Queen Mother said.
Someone from the palace also came over and helped them both up.
"Mother, this matter is all my daughter-in-law's fault. It is my daughter-in-law's fault that caused such a thing." The Queen once again apologized to the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother had already been angry just now, but now she looked much calmer. She glanced at the Queen lightly and said, "It's best if you think so. They are both juniors of the Ai family, and they both want to be protected by the Ai family."
People like them will not let them make any mistakes in the Ai family, this matter needs to be investigated."
This is to bring Yu Xijiao and Zhang Wanyin under the wings of the Queen Mother, and even scold the Queen for them. This kind of intention can make people feel the sincerity of the Queen Mother.
Zhang Wanyin's eyes were so moved that her eyes turned red.
Yu Xijiao lowered her head slightly, pursed her lips, and was very moved when she saw it. However, she and the Queen Mother must not be familiar with each other, so she could only endure the emotion at the moment. She was not as understanding as Zhang Wanyin showed.
"What the Queen Mother said is absolutely true. It was my daughter-in-law who made a mistake." The Queen now takes responsibility for all mistakes, and such mistakes are not a big problem.
"Okay, the Ai family is also sleepy. You can go back." The Queen Mother said, reaching out to rub her eyebrows, and her eyes fell on the seventh princess again, "I have people arrange for the seventh princess to be educated, and things happen again and again.
, let others think about our royal education."
The seventh princess shivered and did not dare to make the slightest move.
"Yes, Queen Mother, my daughter-in-law will go and make arrangements now." The Queen breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that the Queen Mother would hold her daughter and not let go. The Queen could be sure that her daughter did this.
"The two nuns around the Ai family will be lent to the queen." The queen mother said casually.
The Queen was stunned for a moment, but she thanked her: "Thank you, Queen Mother."
Then he glared at the seventh princess.
The seventh princess immediately came to her senses and said tremblingly: "Thank you, Imperial Grandmother, for your grace."
The emperor was here to control the situation, so the seventh princess did not dare to say anything and kept her body as low as possible for fear of offending the emperor.
"Everyone, let's go." The Queen Mother chased them away.
"Mother, have a good rest." The emperor stood up, and the queen also hurriedly said goodbye, followed by the seventh princess, and the sixth princess hesitated for a moment, then also said goodbye and left.
Yu Xijiao pursed her lips and felt that she could leave at this time.
"Xijiao, is it okay for the Ai family to call you this?" the queen mother asked in a gentle voice.
"The Queen Mother's grace." Yu Xijiao stood up immediately and said respectfully.
"Sit down first, sit down and talk." The Queen Mother sighed, her anger had already subsided like the tide, "Yu'er is not in the capital, your affairs are the affairs of the Aijia, besides, you are still peaceful
My granddaughter, your grandmother and grandfather have great kindness to the royal family."
The Queen Mother said, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, "If your grandfather hadn't died young and your father had failed to live up to expectations, how could your grandmother be so depressed now? She would have visited the Ai family in the palace from time to time. However, now that you are here,
It's good that you are here. It is in line with the Ai family's wishes for Yu'er to marry you, and it was also the Ai family's suggestion in the first place."
The Queen Mother turned to Yu Xijiao with kind eyes, as if the Yu Xijiao in front of her was her granddaughter.
"Don't worry, if Yu'er treats you badly in the future, just go to the palace and report it to the Ai family, and the Ai family will give him a good beating for you." Finally, he made a promise to Yu Xijiao.
"Thank you, Queen Mother." Yu Xijiao was grateful.
"Good child, go back and rest. Come back to the palace in a few days. Don't worry, this kind of thing won't happen again in the future." The Queen Mother smiled slightly and promised with satisfaction.
After all, he is still a child, a child who has just returned from Jiangnan.
He is very smart and sensible, which she thinks is good...
This matter is over. Yu Xijiao is no longer required to enter the palace every day. This result is within Yu Xijiao's expectation. It is a good thing that she does not need to enter the palace every day. It is impossible to guard against thieves every day.
Zhang Wanyin sent Yu Xijiao out of the hall, then accompanied Yu Xijiao down the steps. Halfway there, she suddenly asked: "Who do you think Miss Yu is?"
The words came out of nowhere, as if they came out of nowhere.
"Where is Princess Mingqing?" Yu Xijiao asked.
Zhang Wanyin stopped, raised her eyes and looked outside, with a wry smile on her lips: "I don't know, and I don't dare to know. Fortunately, there is still the Queen Mother."
"It's indeed a blessing that we still have the Queen Mother." Yu Xijiao responded noncommittally and walked down again.
This time, neither of them spoke. When they arrived in front of the palace sedan, Yu Xi entered the palace sedan, and Zhang Wanyin took a step back: "Miss Yu, the Queen Mother is protecting us, and we should also protect the Queen Mother."
"Princess Mingqing is absolutely right." Yu Xijiao raised the curtains and responded seriously.
After saying that the curtains fell, the two chamberlains bowed to Zhang Wanyin and carried the palace sedan away. Mingyue followed beside the palace sedan.
Zhang Wanyin took two steps back and frowned slightly. The matter had no effect, and she was also upset. The seventh princess was really useless. She had already mentioned it, but Yu Xijiao didn't fall into the trap.
"Princess." Yu Yan reminded her in a low voice as she kept looking at the direction the palace sedan was leaving.
"Did anyone see it?" Zhang Wanyin turned around and walked back slowly, asking in a low voice.
"No one saw it. They were all busy at the time. The slave and the palace man only said a few words. When they saw the slave taking the cake, they left. If they hadn't been staring at the two slaves, no one would have noticed the two slaves.
Someone who said a few words." Yu Yan's voice was low and low.
Trembling slightly.
Things didn't work out, but they actually offended the emperor and even made the Queen Mother angry. If this really got serious, it wouldn't be enough for her, a little maid, to die a hundred times.
"Princess, why...didn't you tell anyone?" Yu Yan, who was filled with great fear, actually did not understand Zhang Wanyin's instructions. Regardless of whether this matter was successful or not, people must not know that she was instigated by the palace people around the seventh princess.
, only then would I get those portions of pastries.
"Qi Gongfang must be the Queen's biological daughter. If anything happens to her... and my people prove it, the Queen will not let me go." Zhang Wanyin laughed mockingly, "I am an orphan without a father or a mother.
, If you want to live well in the palace, you must not offend the Queen and the Seventh Princess too much."
Not only should we not offend the Seventh Princess, but we should also protect the Seventh Princess when necessary.
Otherwise, even if the Queen Mother is here, it is not easy for a queen and a princess to deal with him as the princess. Even if he is in the Duan Palace in the future, he still has to look at the faces of the queen and the seventh princess.
However, these are temporary.
The most unexpected thing is that Yu Xijiao actually escaped. Could this be luck? If this is really luck, Yu Xijiao's luck is also much better.
Walking up step by step, Zhang Wanyin was thinking about whether it was luck or whether Yu Xijiao discovered something. Wuwu's guess was that it might even be half luck and half discovery. In Zhang Wanyin's opinion, Yu Xijiao found this most likely.
Not only is he not stupid, but he is also a very smart person.
Except for not being favored, everything else is extraordinary.
But the Queen Mother's attitude today was also very abnormal. Is there something she didn't know about? She couldn't help but frown...
