"If the Queen Mother really fulfills Wei Chen's wish, then the Queen Mother will be Wei Chen's ancestor!" Zhu Siliang kowtowed, "Wei Chen should be filial to his godmother and even more filial to his ancestors!"
Although Zhu Siliang was a fool, he knew his seniority clearly. Hearing what he said, the imperial concubine covered her face, thinking that her younger brother had never been shameless. She used to think that he could not hold up the wall, but today she saw that
, maybe this younger brother will be able to become something in the future, after all, the job of beating snakes and crawling along poles is not that easy... The gags should also make people not find them annoying.
The Queen Mother smiled and covered her mouth with a handkerchief. She had not been so happy for a long time...
"Okay, okay, hurry up and serve tea to your godmother! Tell your mother and I later that the Ai family recognizes your gray grandson!" The Queen Mother said to Zhu Siliang after she finished laughing.
"Hey!" Zhu Siliang grinned happily from the corner of his mouth to the base of his ears, and you could see his throat at a glance, "Thank you, ancestor, for your blessing. Please say hello to your ancestor, and say hello to your godmother!"
On one side, a palace maid served fragrant tea. Zhu Siliang also understood the importance of elders and younger ones. He first offered tea to the Queen Mother, and then to Fu Mingyu.
"You called me ancestor..." The imperial concubine deliberately acted silly, "From now on, when I see the Queen Mother, I will have to call you ancestor!" She was trying to get close to the Queen Mother.
"Everyone calls him his own, you are the imperial concubine, there is no need to call him after your brother." The Queen Mother could not see the imperial concubine's thoughts and said with a smile. "Since your brother calls the Ai family "ancestor", the Ai family cannot treat him less favorably.
Come, this is the jade bowl that the Ai family likes the most, and now I will give it to you as a gift. However, jade is fragile, so you have to be careful when holding it!"
Grandma Sun took out an imperial green jade bowl from it. At first glance, it looked like a priceless item. The entire bowl was green with no impurities at all. When viewed under the light, it was almost translucent.
The imperial concubine understood what the Queen Mother meant as soon as she heard it, and then hit her brother, "This is the Queen Mother's promotion of you. Now it is a jade bowl. You have to be good. As long as you respect the Queen Mother well, the Queen Mother may give you a gold one when she is happy."
Maybe a bowl too!”
The Queen Mother smiled slightly, she was indeed a smart person who could become the imperial concubine.
Even though Zhu Siliang didn't understand what the Queen Mother meant at first, when his sister said this, his heart became clear!
He was overjoyed and quickly kowtowed to the Queen Mother again and carefully put the jade bowl away.
"I didn't bring anything with me today." Fu Mingyu touched her body. She never liked bringing a lot of things with her, and now that she was in the palace, she had nothing good to give to Zhu Siliang. She couldn't give it to Zhu Siliang.
Something personal like a veil...
Fu Mingyu thought for a while, then asked Zi Yan to go inside and take out ten thousand taels of silver notes, "I don't have anything as good as the Queen Mother to reward you with. You can use these ten thousand taels of silver first and treat it as money."
Is it enough?"
"Enough, enough!" The imperial concubine laughed when she saw it, and pointed at her younger brother and said, "Why don't you thank your godmother quickly? Normally you and I would have a hard time asking for one or two thousand silver, but today it's
I leaked such a large sum of money to you from the princess! It’s better that your godmother treats you well!”
"My godmother just slapped my son twice, and he was very happy!" Zhu Siliang couldn't close his mouth while holding the banknotes, and quickly kowtowed to Fu Mingyu again.
Fu Mingyu suddenly couldn't laugh or cry. It was really embarrassing for her to pick up such an older godson for nothing!
With the help of the Queen Mother to witness, the gift was completed. With the title of godson, Zhu Siliang immediately accepted Fu Mingyu's charming thoughts. The imperial concubine took this opportunity and gave Fu Mingyu a pair of jade horses and a pair of jade horses.
Ten pieces of Ruyi satin and a complete set of headdresses. The reason for giving such an expensive gift was firstly to build a good relationship with Fu Mingyu and make the Queen Mother happy, and secondly to apologize for Zhu Siliang's confusion last time.
Fu Mingyu accepted it under the hint of the Queen Mother's eyes.
Since his godson also recognized him, the Queen Mother naturally invited people to have meals in Ci'an Palace. Such a big event should be celebrated.
Everyone was sitting together, talking and laughing, when someone announced outside that the Queen had come to pay her respects.
In fact, the Queen came out of the Frost Palace early in the morning. She first went to His Majesty's Imperial Study Room in plain clothes to wait for His Majesty to come to court. After seeing His Majesty, she first burst into tears, which moved His Majesty's face.
You must know that the Queen has always been very tough when she was a noble concubine. Your Majesty did not remember when he saw her crying before. Even when she was suppressed the most by the Queen Mother, she did not cry.
Pass.
This cry really softened His Majesty's heart, and he absolved her of the crime, allowing her to go back and freshen up, and put on the Queen's clothes again. However, His Majesty did not mention a word about the jurisdiction of the harem.
Although the queen was furious in her heart, she still looked like she was admitting her mistake sadly. If the emperor didn't mention it, she couldn't mention it either.
Now we can only take one step at a time.
After returning to Fengxiang Palace to bathe and change clothes, they learned that the imperial concubine had taken Zhu Siliang to the Queen Mother, and that Zhu Siliang had also accepted Fu Mingyu as his godmother.
The angry queen broke two celadon vases.
The Queen Mother, this old lunatic, actually dared to ask Zhu Siliang to accept Fu Mingyu as his godmother? He also chose the day when she left the cold palace. Isn't this just a slap in the face of her as a queen?
In order to keep Fu Mingyu innocent, everyone concealed Zhu Siliang's incident. Even the queen did not dare to disclose it to the outside world, so the outside world only knew about Zhou Meijuan's poisoning of Fu Mingyu.
Now she is even more afraid to speak out. Zhu Siliang has become Fu Mingyu's godson. What's the point of her saying that? The queen mother has obviously joined forces with the imperial concubine. If she had just come out and spread bad news about Fu Mingyu,
I'm afraid that not only the Queen Mother, but also the Imperial Concubine will not tolerate her.
When Qi returns, even if she is angry to death, she still has to come to Ci'an Palace to pay her respects to the Queen Mother.
The queen chose a set of clothes that looked plainer and less ostentatious and put on as few accessories as possible. She took a few of her personal maids and nuns and headed towards Ci'an Palace.
As soon as I entered Ci'an Palace, I saw the Queen Mother, the Imperial Concubine, Fu Mingyu and Zhu Siliang gathered around the garden to eat from a pot. The soup was made from a mushroom base and was seasoned with stock. The taste was delicious. I asked the imperial doctor to prepare it.
They use the vegetables and meat later. This was suggested by Zhu Siliang, saying that this way of eating shabu-shabu is the most popular among the people now.
When the Queen Mother heard that she had never tried it, she asked Zhu Siliang to make arrangements.
The atmosphere is the best when eating pots. The Queen Mother and a few juniors are eating enthusiastically, but the Queen seems a bit deserted with a lot of maids and chambermaids.
