Su Ying was tired most of the night and slept deeply.
Early in the morning, Luhen knocked on the door outside and said: "My lord, my concubine, there is news from the palace that the empress dowager is back. She wants to see the concubine."
"This king knows." Ye Feibai replied softly.
Ye Feibai sat up, took Su Ying into his arms, and began to dress her.
Su Ying leaned into his arms and lazily let him play with her: "Speaking of which, I have never seen the empress dowager before."
"You should be called the emperor's grandmother." Ye Feibai corrected her, "The emperor's grandmother went to Dafo Mountain to pray for the country for three years. Naturally, you have no chance to meet her."
"Oh."
Ye Feibai Ye Feibai dressed Su Ying, and then pressed her in front of the vanity mirror to comb her hair: "You don't have to worry, the emperor's grandmother is a very easy-going person, she will definitely like you."
Su Ying was uncertain: "I hope so."
For Su Ying, the imperial palace is not a good place.
It seems that every time she enters the palace, nothing good happens.
Ye Feibai looked listlessly at Su Ying: "Why don't I go with you."
"No, you still have to go to the morning court. You said that the emperor's grandmother is a kind person, so it's possible that she will eat me up."
When Concubine Liu Gui heard the news that Su Ying would soon come to the palace to meet the Queen Mother, a cold light flashed in her eyes.
Su Ying, a stinky girl, is the best at pretending and also knows how to please people.
The queen mother is soft-hearted and will be coaxed the most.
If the queen mother is facing her, it will be even more difficult to deal with Su Ying in the future.
Concubine Liu Gui thought for a while, and immediately ordered a maid to come over and whispered something in her ear.
The maid understood, nodded and left.
Ye Feibai and Su Ying entered the Palace together, seeing that it was still early, Ye Feibai wanted to send Su Ying directly to the Empress Dowager's Palace of Compassion.
When they passed the corridor, the two were talking and didn't pay attention to anything else.
At this moment, a court lady hurried over with a medicine bowl.
Su Ying hadn't reacted yet, she just felt her body being hit by someone, and then heard a "pop", and the medicine bowl fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
Su Ying came to the palace today, and heard that the Empress Dowager likes plain and dignified attire, so she specially wore a plain and elegant dress.
The palace maid accidentally bumped into Su Ying just now, the medicine juice in the medicine bowl was not particularly hot, but the black medicine juice inside dyed her skirt pitch black.
Before Su Ying could speak, the maid had already knelt down in front of Su Ying.
She looked flustered and kept begging for mercy: "Forgive me, Wangfei, spare me!"
Ye Feibai frowned, with a cold look on his face: "Where are your eyes?!"
The maid's body was trembling, and she kowtowed on the ground a few times: "My lord, spare my life, my concubine! Jin promised to be unwell, so this servant was in a hurry to give her anti-fetal medicine. I didn't expect to offend my concubine!"
Seeing that it was getting late, Su Ying waved her hand, "Forget it, let's go."
"Thank you, Wangfei, thank you, my lord." The maid was forgiven and left in a hurry.
Su Ying wiped it a few times, looking helplessly at the stains on her skirt. She said to Ye Feibai: "You go to court first, I will change a skirt later."
"I'll wait for you here..." As soon as Ye Fei finished speaking, he saw Eunuch Sun running over, "Oh, my lord, why are you still here! The emperor is looking for you."
Ye Feibai glanced at Su Ying, who smiled at him and said, "My lord, you can go now."
Su Ying hadn't walked a few steps when another maid hurried over, "Prince Huai? Why are you still here? The Empress Dowager has been waiting for you in the Palace of Compassion."
"Really?" Su Ying thought it would take some time to change another skirt, but it was her own skirt.
The maid also saw the stain on Su Ying's skirt, and said with a smile: "Princess, the empress dowager is not fussy, but she hates waiting for people the most in her life. When she came back last night and heard that Duke Huai was married, she wanted to see Huai very much." Wangfei, but she gave up because it was too late. Today, the Empress Dowager is waiting for Wangfei in the palace early in the morning. If Wangfei is late, the Empress Dowager will be unhappy."
Hearing what she said, Su Ying thought it was not good to waste so much time on the way, so why not go to the Empress Dowager's Palace first.
When Su Ying entered the Palace of Compassion, she saw Concubine Liu Gui and Concubine Mi were there, talking to the Queen Mother.
Su Ying lowered her eyes, and slowly appeared in front of the Queen Mother with lotus steps. She knelt on the ground and bowed to the Queen Mother: "Ying'er has seen the emperor's grandmother, and may the emperor's grandmother be healthy and blessed forever. "
"Look up and show me."
Su Ying raised her head according to her words. The queen mother was wearing a queen mother's costume, with a dignified appearance and kind eyes.
She is well maintained and does not show her true age.
The Empress Dowager smiled lightly and said, "This child looks good."
"Thank you, Grandmother." Su Ying just said a word, only to realize that the Queen Mother's smile didn't reach her eyes, and even her brows were slightly wrinkled.
Concubine Liu Gui on the side took a sip of tea slowly, and suddenly covered her lips and laughed: "The Empress Dowager said that Ying'er's face fascinated Fei Bai. Since Fei Bai married Ying'er, other Women can't get into his eyes."
"Oh? Is that so?"
Su Ying lowered her eyes and looked terrified: "The imperial concubine is joking."
Concubine Liu Gui said with a smile: "Ying'er, you used to like to dress up the most, and now you are wearing such a dress to meet the Queen Mother... It can be seen that Ying'er, you don't take the Queen Mother seriously."
Concubine Mi at the side glanced at Su Ying's skirt, with a gloating smile in her eyes. She said to the Queen Mother: "Auntie, this girl Ying'er is sometimes confused, don't blame her."
"Since when did Ying'er get confused, she is the fairest!"
Su Ying's face slowly sank, her eyes were cold.
Before, she was anxious to see the Queen Mother, and seeing the two court ladies looked unfamiliar, she didn't have any idea, only now did she realize that she had fallen into someone else's trap.
This is just a small trick, but it can make the Queen Mother dislike her.
Su Ying bowed to the queen mother, her expression panicked: "I hope the emperor's grandmother will forgive me. Ying'er was accidentally sprinkled with concoction by the palace maid. Ying'er should have changed her clothes before coming back, but she was afraid that the emperor's grandmother would have to wait. Take the liberty to come here."
Concubine Liu Gui snorted coldly, and took over the conversation: "How could Ying'er arbitrarily put the blame on other people. The maids in this palace are carefully selected, how could they be so reckless?"
