The servant girl of the Western Regions Palace was more miserable than Bei Min. Dirty work is exhausted and all work is done, as long as there is a little bit of bad work, it will be dragged out and killed. Most of these court ladies are the daughters of criminal officials or slaves, and they cannot be separated from them for their entire lives.
This is not the case in Beimin Palace. There will be an amnesty every ten years. As long as you have performed well during these ten years and there is nothing wrong with it, you can apply for an amnesty from the grandmother in charge. At that time, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will conduct another screening and select 30 maids for amnesty, who will be given special silver taels and go out of the palace.
Therefore, the Queen Mother heard that her granddaughter had been a lowly slave and became a maidservant in the court, she was very sad and hugged her and cried again and again.
She just woke up, her body was not very good, Su Xi'er hugged her back, raised her hand and patted gently, "Emperor Grandmother, the maternal grandmother in charge of the court has treated me well, I am not tired at all from the work." Grandma Zhao was not a good person, and later Grandma Liu even died because of her.
"Poor child, if there were no turmoil back then, you would be the proudest princess of the Western Regions, and the emperor grandmother would also choose a good husband and son." The empress dowager said as she hugged her tightly, and then raised her eyes to look at Pei Qian. Hao, this grandson-in-law is very pleased.
It’s just that I don’t know if it’s good for my granddaughter? Thinking of this, the Empress Dowager couldn't help but sink her face, "Why do you let the granddaughter of the Ai family be a servant girl? When did you meet, and how did Bei Min stand for you to marry a servant girl?"
The always serious Empress Dowager was like an old urchin at this time, grabbing Pei Qianhao and holding on to her, she took a look, and simply stood aside, watching from the sidelines.
Pei Qianhao respectfully said, "I didn't know her when she was the first servant of Ye Ting."
Su Xier said, "Grandma, I met him in the woods next to Yeting. At that time, the first time I saw him, I knocked him out."
For a while, the sleeping hall was silent. Du Ling couldn't help looking at Pei Qianhao, was knocked out the first time he met
Hearing these words, Pei Qianhao's expression showed a trace of unnaturalness. If it weren't for his carelessness, how could she be stunned by her
The Empress Dowager laughed, "As expected of the princess of the Western Regions, she stunned King Hao as soon as she shot it. But why did she stun him? Could it be that he..." At this point, she dazzled and looked at Pei Qianhao, "Audacious. How dare you want to behave badly, you deserve to be knocked out!"
It was the first time someone seriously scolded Pei Qianhao for being presumptuous. However, since she was his wife’s nominal emperor grandmother, he not only kept his face unchanged, but was also respectful and polite, "After seeing Xi’er, I took her out of the palace. , Don’t suffer in Ye Ting."
The Queen Mother looked at Su Xi'er, "Xi'er? Your name in the Central Plains? Now, you are the princess of the Western Regions, and you must take a Western Region name."
At this time, Pei Qianhao said, "It's better to call Du Rulan."
Su Xier's heart trembled when she heard the word Rulan. She was called Ning Rulan in her previous life, and the name of the Western Regions still uses the word Rulan. He was interested.
The empress dowager frowned, "Ru Lan, it sounds like a Western domain name. Granddaughter, do you like it? If you like it, just call this."
Su Xier nodded naturally, "I like it."
"Okay, just call it this." Then, the Queen Mother looked at Du Ling, "The ceremony will be held tomorrow. As for the fake princess, that girl treats Ai's family well, and she is sincere. The Ai's family doesn't care about her fake mistakes. It's better to be pregnant. With a kind heart, let go of that girl."
The girl refers to Tange, and the empress dowager does not know that Tange is dead.
Du Ling nodded and stopped explaining, "Grandson obeys."
"Okay, girl Rulan, stay with me today and stay with my old lady. Since your mother escaped from the royal court due to civil strife, I have been thinking of you every day. Only now I can meet. Before, the emperor admitted the wrong person and pretended to be you. The Aijia also admitted her and granted her the status of princess. Don't be angry."
In the last sentence, guilt and sorrow were added to the words. Guilt is for Su Xier, and sorrow is Tange.
"Grandma, I am not angry. From now on, I will be with you." Su Xi'er has never had a grandmother. The grandmother died before her father married her. Now that there is an extra grandma, why can't she do it
"Good girl." The empress dowager smiled, then looked at Pei Qianhao, "Ru Lan stay with me for a few days, are you okay?"
Even if Pei Qianhao has an opinion, he won't say it at this moment, but can only bend and say, "No opinion."
"That's good, tomorrow Rulan will officially enter the genealogy and grant the princess rights." Said this, the empress dowager stopped quickly and looked at Du Ling, "Where is the princess soldier?"
"The royal grandmother doesn't need to worry, the grandson already knows the secret box, which is in the Huyan mansion."
"Why is it in Huyan Mansion?" The empress dowager didn't know why.
Su Xier thought about it carefully, Tan Ge did it deliberately, and no one would have thought that the secret box was in the rightist chief's mansion. Even if someone finds him, Hu Yanfei will be suspected of colluding with the princess.
Seeing the emperor's grandmother's frown, Su Xi'er said, "It's all things in the past, don't think about it now. I just take the identity of the princess, and the military power doesn't matter."
"That's not good! This part of the military power is yours. If the emperor does not have a daughter in the future, your daughter will inherit everything from you."
Seeing the solemn look of the emperor's grandmother, Su Xier nodded and said, "Okay."
"Okay, you are all gone, and the Aijia wants to talk to the granddaughter." The Queen Mother grasped Su Xi'er's hand, and then said to the grandson and King Hao.
Du Ling glanced at Pei Qianhao and motioned him to go out.
Not long after, the two men bowed and bowed, and walked out of the hall a moment later.
Outside the hall, Du Ling looked at Pei Qianhao and explained, "The emperor's grandmother has such a disposition, she treats the person she likes like a child. In front of outsiders, she is very serious."
"This king knows that when the Queen Mother of the Western Regions was a national concubine, the reputation of the Iron-Blooded Queen was spread all over the world. If it hadn't been for her to shock the court, I am afraid that the royal family would no longer be in charge of the Western Regions." Pei Qianhao slowly said, this For a moment, he thought of Ning Rulan, his Xi'er, and his wife.
"Yes, not all women in the regent are as lucky as the emperor's grandmother. Nan Zhao, one of the four countries in the Central Plains, the eldest princess Ning Rulan gave her life because of the regency." Du Ling replied, her voice slightly heavy.
"What do you think of Ning Rulan?"
Looking at Pei Qianhao's deep eyes, all Ling laughed lightly, "Three years ago, I thought about the integration of the Western Regions and the Central Plains. Ning Rulan and the emperor's grandmother are similar in temperament, so they are very suitable to be the concubines of the Western Regions." Du Ling Not really like Ning Rulan, but admiration for her.
The slightest displeasure flashed from the bottom of Pei Qianhao's heart, Du Ling had made this idea before.
"Who ever thought, Ning Rulan is dead." After the words came, Du Ling raised his foot and walked forward.
Pei Qianhao's eyes were deep, looking at Du Ling's back, how did he feel sorry for what he said? While thinking, the door of the palace was opened, and Su Xi'er walked out from inside.
"A Jing, how about making a bowl of red bean soup?"
