Ming Lanruo's injury was not too serious. After the imperial doctor diagnosed and treated her and prescribed medicine, she felt much better.
"How is it? Are you feeling better, girl?" the Queen Mother's slightly cold voice sounded at the door.
Ming Lanruo was startled and instinctively wanted to stand up and salute: "See..."
"Okay, don't give this vain courtesy to the Ai family. If you knew etiquette, how could you come to sue the Queen?" The Queen Mother interrupted her rudely.
Minglan smiled a little: "Haha...what...you are not feeling well, you should rest in your room."
The Queen Mother didn't care how embarrassed she looked, she held the maid's arm and sat down.
"The Aijia knows well what kind of health they are in. You don't need to worry about it." The Queen Mother snorted with a straight face.
The corners of Ming Lanruo's lips twitched. The Queen Mother's temper was also the reason why she was particularly indifferent to this old lady in her previous life.
Even if she actually expresses kindness in her actions, but...
He really has a sharp mouth, the kind that stabs people with a knife, which is comparable to Cang Qiao's yin and yang aura!
"That's what the Queen Mother said." She could only reply dryly to the old lady.
The Queen Mother looked at her with sharp eyes: "When did you, this girl, learn the medical skills of Miao Xinjiang? I haven't seen you and your father mention it before."
Ming Lanruo said: "My mother was born with a weak body. When my grandfather went to war, he brought a Miao doctor to treat her specially. After my mother died, my grandma took care of me. I thought it was fun at first, so I just learned some things blindly.
I haven’t said it anywhere…”
"How dare you treat Ai's family even if you are blind?" the Queen Mother said bluntly.
Ming Lanruo was not annoyed and smiled: "Although I learned it blindly, the Miao doctor taught me carefully. In the past few years, I have relied on this medical skill to take care of myself and my children in Prince Mou's Mansion!"
The Queen Mother looked at her with complicated eyes: "From now on, you will be raised well here in the Ai family, and no one can bully you. Back then, you, a girl, married the prince well, and how could you live a hard life..."
"The Queen Mother, the Queen Mother and the Prince have come to visit you." The eldest maid of Ci'an Palace bowed respectfully and interrupted the Queen Mother's words.
"Oh, this is about Cao Cao. When Cao Cao arrives, tell them to come in!" The Queen Mother smiled inexplicably.
Ming Lanruo: "......"
If the two giant Buddhas were announced into the room where she was a wounded patient, did it mean that she had to kneel down?
But as she rolled her eyes, she suddenly thought about it again.
She is a wounded patient, so what if she doesn't kneel? The Queen Mother didn't even let herself kneel!
Ming Lanruo's little face wrinkled: "Ouch, it hurts so much!"
Then she simply lay back.
The Queen Mother glanced at her and was speechless for a moment at her shamelessness: "..."
After a while, Queen Zhou came in with Prince Shangguan Zhou.
"Seeing my mother, I heard that you were ill, and my daughter-in-law was very worried." Empress Zhou stepped forward to bless her, her beautiful and dignified face full of worry.
She was not as rigid in etiquette as other palace concubines. She used the title of an ordinary daughter-in-law, making her look kind and gentle.
Prince Shangguan Zhou was serious and bowed respectfully: "Greetings to the emperor's grandmother, are you feeling better?"
"Get up, everyone. Seeing that you are coming together, those who don't know may think they are your biological mother and son." The Queen Mother said to the two of them in a nonchalant manner.
Queen: "..."
Prince: "..."
Ming Lanruo: "Ahem..."
She forced herself to hold back her laughter until her wounds hurt!
Empress Zhou is the successor of the current emperor, the stepmother of the prince, and the biological mother of King Shangguan Hongye of Qin. The prince and King Qin are equally powerful.
However, the Queen's mother-in-law is the "mother" of all the princes, and the royal "mother and son" must do their best in front of the people of the world.
But the old lady always exposes other people's disguised characters without mercy. How on earth did she become the ultimate winner in the last palace battle?!
Ming Lanruo's cough immediately attracted the attention of Queen Zhou.
Queen Zhou looked at her tenderly and apologetically and said, "Is Princess Mourning's injury better? It's all my fault. People in the palace said unlucky things..."
"The queen is wrong. It is obviously a birthday banquet, but it is unlucky to have people kneel in the palace road all night. Those who know it is to pay homage to her birthday, but those who don't know think it is to pay homage to the queen's mourning hall!"
While the Queen Mother was drinking tea, she abruptly interrupted Queen Zhou's words.
"Ahem, cough, cough..." Ming Lanruo was almost hurt from laughing so hard.
This old lady is really ruthless and her status is high enough, so she can do whatever she wants.
On her birthday, someone scolded her for visiting the mourning hall. Even though Empress Zhou was well-educated and capable of pretending, her face instantly became a bit ugly.
But soon she regained her gentle expression: "It's my daughter-in-law who failed to control her servants. She will definitely clean up the palace discipline!"
As she said that, she looked at Ming Lanruo apologetically: "Princess Mourning, please don't blame me."
Ming Lanruo paused, Queen Zhou was forcing her to declare that she would not pursue the matter of humiliating her in public today.
She lowered her eyes and smiled: "My daughter is a guilty person, and it is a grace for Your Majesty and Your Majesty to be able to enter the palace to celebrate your birthday."
Seeing the expression on Queen Zhou's face that showed satisfaction with her knowledge, Ming Lanruo changed the topic -
"But there are people in Fengkun Palace who dare to falsely convey Yi's decree. This is because the empress has a gentle temper and wants to get on top of her!"
Empress Zhou's face froze. Ming Lanruo's label of "false propagation of Yizhi" was too strong, and she would be forced to deal with Ruan Shanggong and other confidants!
Ming Lanruo pretended not to see Queen Zhou's gloomy gaze and drank the medicine slowly.
When Ruan Shanggong asked Nanny Zhang to withhold her salary, it was the Queen who ordered it, and she has not forgotten it!
Since she wanted to step out of Prince Mourn's Mansion with Xiao Xi, she couldn't allow those people in the capital to point fingers at Xiao Xi and her.
It is most appropriate to use the people around the queen to establish authority!
The Empress Dowager said calmly: "Girl Lan Ruo is right. Today Ruan Shanggong and the others can pretend to be powerful and deceive the princess's salary, and force the princess to kneel in the palace. Tomorrow they can ride on your head!"
Empress Zhou finally had to kneel down and said in a low voice: "The queen mother is right, my daughter-in-law will deal with Ruan Shanggong when she returns."
"Come on, you should go back now, don't you have to have a dinner?" the Queen Mother said impatiently.
The Queen clenched her palms in anger, and said with a smile without changing her face: "The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess are waiting to visit Princess Mou. The Crown Princess and Princess Mou are biological sisters, so why not let them get together."
When the Queen Mother heard this, she simply said: "Okay, just help the Ai family out!"
Before Ming Lanruo could stop her, the queen had already come over to help the queen mother go out.
Suddenly only Prince Shangguan Zhou and Ming Lanruo were left in the room.
Facing the husband she had shared the same bed with in her previous life, Ming Lanruo felt complicated and did not want to be alone with him at all.
Shangguan Zhou suddenly walked over to her and sat down, looking at her with gentle and burning eyes.
Ming Lanruo hasn't decided what to say yet.
He raised his hand and held Ming Lanruo's hand: "Does it hurt?"
It seemed that the prince who was famous for being polite and polite in front of all the officials was not him.
The slender figure standing in the darkness looked at everything in the room with cold eyes, especially the intertwined hands of the prince and Ming Lanruo.
Seeing this, Yun Ni said uneasily: "Lord Governor."
Cang Qiao raised his hand expressionlessly to signal her to be silent. This chapter has been completed!
