Zhuo Ye was depressed! She had a premonition that something bad was going to happen, and it turned out to be a disaster... But the Queen Mother, after all, she was also one of the parties involved, okay? I should also ask her what she thought!
When "Little Baozi" heard this, he immediately became energetic, his eyes were bright, and he took the lead in answering with excitement: "Royal Grandma, do you want 'Little Ye Zi' to be my mother-in-law?"
"'Little Ye Zi'?" The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that the "Little Ye Zi" mentioned by "Little Baozi" was Zhuo Ye, and couldn't help but asked with a smile: "Xuan'er wants her to be your mother-in-law?"
"Think and think!" "Little Baozi" nodded fiercely: "But my father is so inefficient! He hasn't taken down 'Little Leaf' for so long!"
The corner of Zhuo Ye's mouth twitched hard!
Feng Lince's handsome face was even darker...
The Queen Mother stared at "Little Baozi" for a while, and then said: "She is just a commoner, I'm afraid she can only be Xuan'er's aunt." The Queen Mother secretly wondered from whom did this child learn this trick...
…
Zhuo Ye smiled bitterly. Indeed, in the eyes of people in this time and space, her status was humble. Not to mention being a princess, she was not qualified to be a concubine. The Queen Mother's words of "accepting her" were just giving her a servant.
As a concubine, this is already a great blessing...
However, she has no interest in that gorgeous golden cage! Moreover, her thoughts and principles do not allow her to be someone else's concubine!
"But Xuan'er doesn't want 'Little Leaf' to be my aunt! Imperial Grandmother, how about letting 'Little Leaf' be Xuan'er's mother-in-law!" "Little Baozi" wrinkled his face and stretched out his two little paws to shake it.
The Queen Mother's arms.
"You kid, what are you kidding about..." the Queen Mother said helplessly.
Zhuo Ye struggled for a while, then knelt down with a pop: "The Queen Mother! A civilian girl..."
"Mother!" Before Zhuo Ye could finish speaking, Feng Linche suddenly said, "I have no such intention!"
Feng Linche was not in a hurry to answer the Queen Mother's question, but had been paying attention to Zhuo Ye's look. All the changes in expressions on her face were caught in his eyes. Now that he saw her suddenly giving up, he knelt down,
Naturally, he understood what she wanted to say. If she was allowed to continue talking and offended the Queen Mother, things would get out of hand! That was not what he wanted to see...
Moreover...he doesn't want Zhuo Ye to be his concubine...
Hearing this, Zhuo Ye raised his head in surprise and looked at Feng Linche. Wasn't he worried about himself... how could he... Facing his eyes that signaled her reassurance, Zhuo Ye was a little confused...
"Oh?" The Queen Mother glanced at Zhuo Ye who was kneeling on the ground, and then turned to look at Feng Lince: "I think this girl is pretty good, but Ce'er doesn't like her?" This woman is the first to be led by Ce'er in so many years.
What about the one who entered Prince Rui's Mansion? Could it be that she thought wrong?
"My son, I heard from Dr. Zheng that my mother has been feeling tired recently and she should pay more attention to her recuperation. It is better not to worry about such trivial matters." Although Feng Linche's attitude was still respectful, he seemed to have made up his mind.
"Ce'er, Lan'er has been dead for many years. How can the Ai family not worry about you who neither married nor took concubines?! Moreover, Xuan'er has no brothers and sisters, so she is too lonely." The Queen Mother said with sincerity.
"My son will marry a concubine! Mother, don't worry." Feng Lince's tone was calm, but his expression looked quite serious.
Zhuo Ye knelt on the ground and listened quietly to the conversation between mother and son. For some reason, she always felt that the mother and son were... strange... as if there was something between them... that she couldn't see through.
…
"That's all, the Ai family can't control you anymore." The Queen Mother waved her hand to Feng Lince, then glanced at Zhuo Ye at her feet, and said calmly: "Get up too."
"Yes." Zhuo Ye stood up with slight trembling.
"I'm tired too. You can go back." The Queen Mother paused and then said, "Xuan'er will stay in Cihua Palace today to stay with this old woman from the Ai family."
"Er Chen and Ye'er will take their leave first." Feng Lince bowed to the Queen Mother, then looked at "Little Baozi" and ordered: "Xuan'er remember to listen to the Queen Mother."
"Yes! Xuan'er understands!" "Little Baozi" raised his little neck and patted his chest with dignity: "Xuan'er will take good care of the royal grandmother for my father!"
Feng Lince and Zhuo Ye couldn't help but raise the corners of their lips when they saw the little adult-like appearance of "Little Baozi".
The Queen Mother hugged his little body with a smile and kissed his tender face: "Xuan'er still knows that she loves me, an old woman."
Zhuo Ye silently followed Feng Lince out of Cihua Palace.
The two walked in silence for a while, and Zhuo Ye couldn't help but whisper: "Just now...thank you." Thinking about it now, she felt chills running down her spine. If Feng Linche hadn't interrupted her just now, she might have really
She said some careless words on impulse. She couldn't imagine what she would face next... Thinking back to the Queen Mother's last glance at her, it was unpredictable! Sharp! It made her heart tremble...
The Queen Mother was definitely not a simple woman! Zhuo Ye had never seen a lot of unofficial histories and TV dramas about the palace before. A woman who could protect herself and her children in a complicated and terrifying place like the harem, and ascend to that noble throne,
How could it be a fuel-efficient lamp!
Feng Lince paused, turned around, and looked at Zhuo Ye quietly: "Just because I said this to my mother today does not mean that I will let you go."
Zhuo Ye opened his lips slightly and looked at Feng Linche blankly, not knowing how to answer.
"Prince Rui, I would like to send you my regards." Suddenly, a spy's voice broke in.
Zhuo Ye trembled and felt goose bumps all over his body! He stared at the "man" who suddenly ran over. In fact, when he came, he also met some eunuchs Xiang Feng Lince, "Little Baozi"
Salute, but every time she heard this sound, she still couldn't help but tremble, that... She didn't mean to be discriminatory, she was just... not used to it...
"It turns out to be Eunuch Li, but something happened?" Feng Lince asked calmly.
"Your Majesty, Prince Xuanrui, please come to the imperial study to see me. I have something to discuss with you." Eunuch Li bowed and said.
"Oh?" Feng Lince frowned slightly, nodded and said, "I understand." Instructing Eunuch Li to escort Zhuo Ye out of the palace, Feng Lince turned around and headed towards the royal study.
After leaving the palace, Zhuo Ye rolled up her sleeves and looked at the time. It was already noon, but she didn't want to go back to Prince Rui's Mansion for the time being. She wanted to visit the Lian family. Then she thought about it. She didn't have a greeting card on this second day of the Lunar New Year.
He went there rashly, but he was afraid that Lian Qin and the others would not be at the house as they were visiting relatives and friends. After thinking for a moment, he opened the curtain and told the coachman to go to Prince Jin's house.
Feng Linge's energy was getting better day by day. The two had lunch together and talked for a while. Feng Linge found that Zhuo Ye seemed a little absent-minded and had been distracted several times.
He couldn't help but asked in confusion: "What's wrong with Ye'er? Are you worried?"
