Seeing this funny scene in front of her, Queen Mother Xie's expression changed again and again.
But if you argue with her as a little baby, you will lose your royal style even more. It would be better to...
Thinking of this, Queen Mother Xie showed a smile on her face, and waved her hand to disperse the people around her, "What's wrong with you? Don't scare Sir Xiao Zhang."
After saying that, he waved to Zhang Qingjiu and said, "Come here."
Zhang Qingjiu curled his lips and stepped forward.
"Is this the one you're talking about?" Queen Mother Xie reached out to touch it, then pulled off the hairpin on her head, "This is your first time entering the palace, and you brought a gift to the Ai family. Since you like it,
How about I give it to you as a return gift?"
As soon as Empress Dowager Xie finished speaking, Chu Feng and an old nun present at the scene said in unison, "Empress Dowager, you must not do this."
The old nun glanced at Chu Feng and stepped forward to persuade her, "I dare to ask the Queen Mother, Lord Xiao Zhang. This move was the late emperor's birthday gift to the empress in the first year after she entered the palace. The empress felt that
Mr. Xiao Zhang is lively and cute, you might as well show Mr. Xiao Zhang and see if there is anyone you like."
As soon as these words came out, everyone at the scene looked a little strange. This Mr. Zhang was so bold that he even dared to ask for the hairpin rewarded by the late emperor!
Chu Feng also knew the seriousness of the matter. He ignored Zhang Qingjiu beside him and saluted the Queen Mother Xie, "It is enough to have the Queen Mother's love. This gift is too precious. Please take it back."
Saying that, Chu Feng winked at Zhang Qingjiu vigorously.
At this time, Queen Mother Xie also showed a look of reluctance on her face, but she quickly smiled again, "Since everything is done, how can there be any reason for the Ai family to take it back? Besides, the Ai family is old and so beautiful.
Bu Yao, with a little wine, you are so brilliant at such a young age."
After saying that, he put the Bu Yao in his hand into the brocade box beside him and winked at the old lady beside him.
The old woman understood this and immediately brought the brocaded silver plate and box to Zhang Qingjiu.
Chu Feng took a deep breath and was extremely anxious.
She didn't expect that the Queen Mother would actually pick out the words in her words and say it. She could only pray in her heart that Zhang Qingjiu would follow her words and politely decline this step.
She even thought about how to comfort the child after she went out. At worst, she would take her to a jewelry store to pick out a hundred or so pieces...
Under the "anticipation" of everyone, Zhang Qingjiu barely hesitated, reaching for the brocade box, with an unprecedented bright smile on his face, "Then I thanked the Queen Mother, no wonder I have such good taste."
, it turned out to be a gift from the late emperor."
Queen Mother...
Chu Feng...
All the palace people...
Girl, are you polite?
Zhang Qingjiu didn't care what they were thinking. Not to mention that this thing was a gift from the late emperor and that the Empress Dowager Xie had carried it for decades. It was impossible for her to just take it out of her thick black bun.
reject.
Queen Mother Xie didn't expect that Zhang Qingjiu could be so clean and tidy, and even said such a sentence, and the expression on her face was stunned for a moment.
But she quickly came to her senses, smiled and shook her head.
Seeing that Zhang Qingjiu had put the brocade box into his arms, Chu Feng knew that there was nothing he could do to save the matter at this point, so he had to laugh a few times.
The next few people exchanged greetings for a while, and Chu Feng took Zhang Qingjiu and stood up to say goodbye. Naturally, Queen Mother Xie would not stop them anymore. She smiled and said a few words asking them to come and move around more in the future, and then waved her hand.
Zhang Qingjiu was carrying a flower pot when he came in, and a brocade box when he left. It can be said that he neither came nor left empty-handed.
When he reached the door of Shoukang Palace, Zhang Qingjiu saw the lazy cat again.
The cat was lying in the sun with his eyes half-closed. When he saw someone coming, he just turned away lazily and showed no signs of life at all.
Zhang Qingjiu paused slightly, a smile appeared on his lips, "This cat is pretty good."
The old eunuch who sent her out was startled, thinking that he had fallen in love with a cat again, right? He immediately smiled and said, "Master Xiao Zhang has a good eye. This cat was found by the Duke of Zhen two days ago and sent away by someone."
The person who comes to the palace to accompany the Queen Mother is not only good-looking but also has a docile temperament."
"It's really docile, but a little silly." Zhang Qingjiu nodded, with a hint of sarcasm on his lips.
The old eunuch was stunned for a moment, and the corners of his mouth twitched. He should have pretended not to hear what he just said, and immediately made up his mind. No matter what Zhang Qingjiu said, he would never speak again.
Who would have known that this journey would be uneventful.
After sending the two people out of the palace, the old eunuch immediately turned back.
I saw Queen Mother Xie, who originally said she was sleepy and wanted to rest, sitting upright in the middle, not looking sleepy at all.
"Send him off?" After the old eunuch saluted, Queen Mother Xie waved for him to get up.
The old eunuch understood and immediately stepped forward to hold her hand up, "Yes, she has been sent out of the palace."
The old eunuch thought about it for a while, and then thought about just now. There was always something strange in his heart that he couldn't explain. Finally he shook his head and said, "There was nothing strange about it."
"I'm sorry they don't dare." Queen Mother Xie snorted, turning her eyes to the extremely brightly blooming flowers next to her, "Where did the Ai family come from?"
After saying that, Queen Mother Xie touched her bun and showed a proud smile at the corner of her mouth.
She still needs a pot of flowers to prove her whooping glory?
Seeing that Empress Dowager Xie was in a good mood today, the old eunuch secretly felt relieved and responded with a smile, "That's because the empress has become younger and younger these days, which reminded the old slave of the time when the empress first entered the palace.
"
"Your words will please the Ai family." Queen Mother Xie sneered and said goodbye to the old eunuch, "You have seen the two of them today. That girl Chu Feng can't afford to cause trouble, but her daughter,
She is really a master at pretending to be crazy and acting stupid. The Ai family has been fooled by her several times, but..."
The old eunuch understood what he was saying, "Just do as you command."
The corners of Queen Mother Xie's mouth curved, and a flash of ridicule flashed in her eyes, "Don't think that the Ai family can't cure her, just come here..."
At the palace gate, seeing Zhang Qingjiu still holding the brocade box tightly, Chu Feng finally couldn't help it anymore and sighed, "Jiu'er, you..."
"Mother." Zhang Qingjiu suddenly interrupted her, "Have you noticed that the Queen Mother's hair is much darker than it was at the Prince's birthday party?"
Chu Feng was suddenly startled, confused whether to laugh or cry, "How could I notice this? You kid..."
"That's right." Zhang Qingjiu thought about it seriously and nodded, "By the way, what were you going to say just now?"
Chu Feng shook her head helplessly, wondering whether to laugh or cry: "If you like this kind of walking, I can just give you a box for my mother. Why bother to ask for this?"
"Why should you buy it yourself if someone gives it to you?" Zhang Qingjiu paused and widened his eyes, "If you keep the money, wouldn't it be good for my mother to go to Zhaixinglou and eat a few plates of pear blossom cakes more often?"
