After all, I still miss Ling Jingshu.
Queen Xu couldn't help but glared at King Yan again: "What kind of drug did Ling Jingshu give you, so you are so obsessed with her?"
King Yan smiled cheekily: "Don't worry about this, Queen Mother. In short, I just like her. Queen Mother also said just now that a woman is insignificant and does not affect the overall situation. In this case, I will bring her into the house according to my heart."
Before Queen Xu could glare, King Yan immediately said: "Don't worry, queen, I know the importance. I will marry the second Miss Wang first, and then I will marry the concubine after the main concubine is pregnant. Even if I dote on her more in the future, she will still be married." I will never do anything to spoil my concubine and destroy my wife."
"Smooth talk! What nonsense!"
Empress Xu was not that easy to fool. She sneered and said, "You were born in my belly. Don't I still know what your temperament is? You have never been short of beauties around you in the past two years. How have you ever been?" I’ve never been so obsessed with a woman. I don’t know what the trouble will be like in the future, depending on your temper.”
It is really up to King Yan to bring people into the palace, and which one he favors does not depend on King Yan's wishes. Even though she is the mother of Prince Yan after the Sixth Palace, she is not in a position to interfere in the inner chamber of Prince Yan's palace.
What King Yan said now was just to coax her to nod in agreement.
King Yan's intentions were revealed, and he showed no shame on his face. He spoke confidently: "Mother, I have promised to marry the second Miss Wang, and Ling Jingshu will only enter the palace as a concubine. What else are you dissatisfied with. "
Without waiting for Queen Xu to speak, she said unhappily: "I am not the only one who is interested in her. If I am slow, it will be difficult for me to get what I want."
Queen Xu's eyes flashed, and she raised the corners of her lips with a hint of a smile: "Are you talking about your great-grandson?"
This Ling Jingshu is quite capable. Only a few months after coming to the capital, the emperor's grandson and King Yan were already fascinated.
"Who else but him?" King Yan snorted, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone: "He happened to be one step ahead of me. He once rescued Ling Jingshu on the way to the capital."
This life-saving grace is the easiest way to create love between men and women.
Queen Xu rolled her eyes at King Yan impatiently: "You should focus on business. Spend the whole day thinking about the potential of these children's love."
After a pause, he said proudly: "You are the emperor's favorite youngest son and also my only son. My grandson cannot compete with you even if he wants to."
The beauties of the country will all belong to King Yan!
King Yan heard the looseness in Queen Xu's tone and was secretly pleased with himself. Being so happy, he couldn't help but speak a little more boldly: "My mother said this, and I feel relieved. Speaking of which, it is a good thing that I married Ling Jingshu. In case that Wei Yan also secretly has his own thoughts... "
Queen Xu's smile froze slightly, and a stern look flashed in her eyes. Pretending to be careless, he interrupted King Yan: "You are becoming more and more erratic in your words. My fair lady, a gentleman is so jealous. Is it true that such a beautiful and intelligent girl is only allowed to be liked by you, but not allowed to be admired by others?"
"The Imperial Physician Wei is now twenty-four this year. He has not yet started a family at this age, so Wei Jieyu is so anxious. Even the emperor occasionally asks about his marriage. If the Imperial Physician Wei and Ling Jingshu are in love, it would be a good idea. A beautiful thing."
The words she spoke were high-sounding, and her mother's demeanor as a queen was evident in every aspect.
"What the Queen Mother said was that I made a mistake just now." King Yan immediately lowered his head obediently and admitted his mistake, but a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes.
Queen Xu's words were very pleasant, but unfortunately her actions were not like that. If Empress Xu hadn't interfered, how could Wei Yan have been alone
The marriage grant and Luzhu's sudden death were all done by Empress Xu.
Do you really think that no one can see through her shady thoughts
Empress Xu suddenly lost interest in talking and said casually: "I'm a little tired today, so you go back first! I have my own arrangements for Ling Jingshu's affairs. You are not allowed to see her again in the near future, so as not to spread the rumors and get arrested. It’s always not good for Duke Ping’s government to find out.”
King Yan responded and resigned from Jiaofang Hall.
…
After noon, Xinyun sent Ling Jingshu out of the palace and back to Ling Mansion.
Bai Yu waited in the side hall for half a day, holding back his words. However, it is inconvenient to say more in front of Xinyun. He just silently accepted the brocade box given by Queen Xu.
The entire journey was silent.
After arriving at Ling Mansion, Xinyun did not stay and immediately returned to the palace to resume his duties.
The Sun family, the Jiang family, Ling Jingyan and Ling Xiao were all eagerly awaiting the return of Ling Jingshu. Almost immediately, people gathered around and started asking questions.
"Ah Shu, you went to the palace to see Empress Jieyu today, right? How did Empress Jieyu treat you?"
"Ah Shu, have you met Princess Anya?"
"Ah Shu, are these brocades a gift from Empress Jieyu?"
…
Ling Jingshu answered patiently one by one: "Empress Jieyu has a kind temperament and treats people kindly. I have also met Princess Anya. She has not recovered yet and is still resting in bed. These brocades were given by the Empress."
What? Ling Jingshu actually met Queen Xu
Everyone was stunned.
There was not much joy on Ling Xiao's face, but instead he frowned: "Why did the Queen suddenly summon you?" She also rewarded her with something. This kind of special treatment made people feel inexplicably uneasy.
Ling Jingshu didn't want Ling Xiao to worry, so she pretended to smile casually and said: "The Empress also knew about Princess Anya falling into the water. When Princess Changping entered the palace, she praised me twice in front of the Empress. The Empress was curious and called I will go to the Jiaofang Hall for an audience. Don’t worry, I handled myself well today, and the Empress has a good impression of me. Not only did I receive a reward, but she also asked Empress Jieyu to summon me to the palace often in the future!"
Everyone was surprised and happy.
What makes her happy is that Ling Jingshu has luck, but what makes her surprised is this.
Both Wei Jieyu and Empress Xu were unattainable figures for them. If Ling Jingshu was often called into the palace, she would be extremely dignified.
But if something happens accidentally and angers the nobles in the palace, it will be an unbearable disaster for the Ling family.
Sun's heart was mixed with joy and sorrow, but a smile appeared on her face: "The Queen and Empress Jieyu are very fond of Ah Shu. This is Ah Shu's blessing. If you have the opportunity to enter the palace in the future, it will be something that no one else can ask for." That's a good thing! Ah Xiao, just relax."
Then he smiled at Ling Jingshu and said: "Ah Shu, since the Queen has said so, I think she will call you into the palace from time to time in the future. You should be more careful in dressing up. I will have someone come to your door tomorrow to make some new clothes for you. skirt, and pick out some exquisite jewelry.”
Ling Jingshu did not refuse, but smiled and thanked her. (To be continued)
