When Ye Zhen came forward, the queen mother had already reached out to hold her little hand. Looking carefully at Ye Zhen's face, she turned her head in shock and looked at Aunt Cheng the same way.
Aunt Cheng was already startled when she saw entering the Palace of Compassion and Ning, she nodded lightly with the Queen Mother, confirming the surprise in the Queen Mother's heart.
The third girl of the Lu family really looks a lot like the dead Princess Qin.
"Son, what's your name?" When the Queen Mother thought of the unfavorable daughter-in-law, she couldn't help feeling sad, and she spoke softly and kindly to Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen looked back at the queen mother generously, this was the only elder who made her feel warm when she became a soul breath, her eyes naturally showed love and gratitude, "Go back to the queen mother, the servant's name is Yaoyao, Tao Yaoyao, Yaoyao who burns its flowers."
The queen mother smiled and nodded, "What a good name, did you grow up in a border town?"
"Yes, has the Empress Dowager ever been to the border town?" Ye Zhen pretended to be innocent.
"I've never been to Aijia, but I've heard of it." The queen mother said with a smile, "Then what do you do in the border town?"
Lu Shuang'er's face turned green when she heard it, she thought that the queen mother wanted to see the old lady and Lu Yaoyao, just to show her face as a noble concubine, and sent them away after saying a few polite words, now seeing how she treats Lu Yaoyao, it seems I really like it.
Could it be that seeing Lu Yaoyao's good looks made him want to take her into the palace
Ye Zhen didn't look at Lu Shuang'er's face, she smiled shyly, and searched for traces of Lu Yaoyao's life in her memory, "...my brother and I like to catch cicadas in the summer, and my mother won't let me climb trees, so I just take advantage of it." She slipped away accidentally. The house next door to us was a lame soldier. He taught me to ride a horse. I rode better than my brother. My brother refused to take me hunting. I competed with him in archery. He lost to I... I shot two hares the first time."
Hearing Ye Zhen's sweet and tender voice resounding briskly in the hall, that kind of sweet girlish voice made people feel better all of a sudden.
The queen mother liked this little girl more and more, "So, you learned horse riding and archery in the border town, so what else did you learn?"
Ye Zhen lowered her head in embarrassment, "I don't study well. When I was in the border town, my mother hired a teacher for me, but I didn't think it was useful... I came back to Kyoto and found out that I had to take the Six Arts exam to enter the medical school. Fortunately There is Mr. Shan, but I did not do well in etiquette and calligraphy."
"You are already very good." The Queen Mother rubbed Ye Zhen's head, her eyes filled with love.
The smile on the corner of Lu Shuang'er's mouth was stiff, and she laughed twice and said, "Yaoyao, why are you talking nonsense in front of the queen mother, I'm afraid the queen mother doesn't know that you are a wild girl in the border town."
Yes, in Lu Shuang'er's opinion, even if Lu Yaoyao is good-looking, she is just a wild girl.
Ye Zhen stuck out her pink tongue, and blinked at the Queen Mother, "Your Majesty, when you are in the border town, your servants are free, unlike the older sisters in the capital, my mother said that I am a wild girl."
The queen mother laughed, and took Ye Zhen's hand and said to Lu Shuang'er, "Concubine Lu Gui, your sister is a lucky person, there is nothing wrong with a girl's wild life."
Mrs. Lu was also very relieved to see that the Queen Mother really liked Yaoyao. In her old man's opinion, anyone who has met Yaoyao has never disliked her.
Except, of course, those who are jealous of her.
Lu Shuang'er forced a smile, "What the Queen Mother said is true."
"In the future, I will go to the palace to talk with Ai's family more often." The queen mother said to Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen doesn't like the palace, but she likes the queen mother, she carefully rubbed the queen mother's arm, "Your Majesty, my servant doesn't know how to speak, what should I do if I say something wrong?"
The queen mother laughed, "The Ai family feeds you a few more candies, and you will understand how to speak."
Ye Zhen pursed her lips and laughed.
Mrs. Lu shook her head and said to the Queen Mother, "Your Majesty, the granddaughter of this concubine is not big or small, and you are so generous that you didn't care about her."
"The Ai family likes such a little girl." The queen mother said, whether it was because Lu Yaoyao looked like Ye Zhen, or because she spoke with a lively expression and a sweet voice, the queen mother liked this little girl from the bottom of her heart.
Lu Shuang'er curled her lips secretly, feeling even more disgusted with Lu Yaoyao in her heart.
Madam Lu, who was sitting across from Lu Shuang'er, could see the expression on Lu Shuang'er's face, and sighed secretly in her heart, her eldest granddaughter was still not as pure, kind and straightforward as Yaoyao came.
Just as he was talking, a woman dressed as a court lady came hurriedly outside.
Aunt Cheng immediately nodded to the Queen Mother, and went out to ask what happened to the big maid, and Aunt Cheng came back after a while.
"What's the matter? Is the little prince making trouble again?" The queen mother looked at Aunt Cheng and asked.
"Going back to the Queen Mother, it's the little prince... I heard that Miss Lu San is here and is arguing to see Miss Lu San. Now she still refuses to take the medicine and is arguing." Aunt Cheng glanced at Ye Zhen and said to the Queen Mother in a low voice.
Ye Zhen's eyes darkened slightly, she lowered her head intently, pretending she didn't hear Aunt Cheng's words, but she cursed inwardly, what is that Murongyi going to do again.
The queen mother shook her head helplessly, "This child!" She looked at Ye Zhen and said, "Yaoyao, do you still remember the little prince who was rescued near Chengde Villa?"
"Go back to the queen mother, my servant will remember." It's hard to forget.
"He has been suffering from a cold for the past few days, and he refuses to take the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor. He has never recovered, and now he wants to see you again..." The queen mother hesitated, she is not good at forcing others to make things difficult for her.
Lu Shuang'er immediately smiled and said, "Queen Mother, what's the problem? Let Yaoyao go to greet the little prince. After seeing Yaoyao, the little prince will naturally be willing to take the medicine."
Ye Zhen pursed her lips and did not speak, but looked sideways at Mrs. Lu.
Mrs. Lu smiled and nodded, "Yaoyao, then you can go and say hello to the little prince."
"Okay." Ye Zhen nodded obediently, thinking that when she saw Murongyi later, she would definitely find a chance to teach him a lesson.
That little boy! He must be angry because Liuhua didn't pay him back.
The queen mother patted Ye Zhen's head lovingly, and asked the big maid to take Ye Zhen to the prince's place to find the young prince.
Because Murong Yi was still young, the Empress Dowager didn't want him to go out and start a mansion, so she continued to let him live in the prince's residence.
Murong Zhan didn't have a son yet, so only the prince Murongyi lived in the prince's residence.
When Ye Zhen came over, she just heard him yelling and refusing to take the medicine.
"My lord, Miss Lu San is here." The palace maid walking beside Ye Zhen glanced at Ye Zhen awkwardly, and said to Murong Yi who was inside.
The door creaked open, and Murongyi ran out from inside, "Yaoyao, are you really here?"
Ye Zhen originally thought that Murong Yi was pretending to be sick, but seeing his thinner face and pale and sallow complexion, she realized that he was really sick.
"Little prince, why don't you take medicine when you are sick?" Ye Zhen asked with a frown, and it made her unable to get along with the Queen Mother for a few more days, which is really annoying.
