Shui Ruolan followed the grandmother who led the way, feeling uneasy. After entering the capital, she would also interact with some ladies from aristocratic families. If it was not necessary, she would basically not attend.
On the one hand, she has always had a weak temperament, and on the other hand, every time she went out, some people would always ask about Di's affairs intentionally or unintentionally, and they would be polite to her on the surface, but actually talk about her with ridicule behind her back.
People in the capital felt that Mrs. Di was Qin Huaiyong's legitimate wife. How could Shui Ruolan, a divorced woman, be compared to a serious wife from aristocratic families? There was a big difference in her status. Of course, there were people who wanted to flatter her. It was some unscrupulous people who wanted to curry favor with Qin Huaiyong.
After being in Beijing for so long, this was her first time entering the palace.
"Mrs. Shui, do you want to sit in the palace sedan?" The nun in the palace suggested again after seeing her walking slowly.
She had already proposed it when she entered the palace, but Shui Ruolan refused.
"No, thank you, mama." Shui Ruolan said politely. Although she did not enter the palace, she knew that those who entered the palace and could sit in the palace sedan were high-ranking people. Although she also had a royal title now, she had not entered the palace because of the Di family. Now, it is not convenient to ask for a high-ranking imperial edict. Afterwards, the Di family's affairs became controversial again, and Shui Ruolan did not want to be in such a limelight.
She has always been low-key and just wants to live her life peacefully and doesn't care about these external things.
She didn't want to embarrass Shao Wanru because of her high profile. Before entering the palace, Mrs. Qin repeatedly told her that she could do whatever she wanted according to her rank, read more and speak less, and be careful when dealing with her, so as not to embarrass the Queen.
Everyone knows that the Queen was first born in the Qin Mansion.
"If Mrs. Shui is really tired, she'd better sit in the palace sedan, otherwise the Queen will scold the servants later!" Mammy said with a smile, very polite.
"It's really not necessary, thank you so much, mama." Shui Ruolan said softly.
Because of the palace nun's repeated instructions, my mood was not as nervous as it was at first. The queen had been close to me since she was a child, and she knew his temperament, so she should have given special instructions.
"Is the Queen okay in the palace?" Since this nanny looked kind, Shui Ruolan couldn't help but ask one more question, without the initial panic in her expression.
This gave me the real feeling that a child raised by her own family had truly become a queen.
"The Queen is very nice in the palace. Apart from chatting with the Queen Mother, there is nothing else to do. Princess Ruian will also come and sit there, and Mrs. Shui will also come into the palace to accompany the Queen when she has nothing to do." Mammy smiled and looked at Shui Ruolan who was very kind. I heard that Mrs. Shui had a very good relationship with the Empress. Even after the Empress recognized her ancestor and returned to the clan, she also had a close relationship with him. Of course, Mammy would not dare to offend this person. .
Although this Lady Shui looks extremely weak, she can't help but be kind to her!
There is only one empress in the harem. If the other concubines have children, they will live with them. The previous generation of concubines only left Concubine Lan Tai, and the previous generation was the Empress Dowager. For three generations, each generation only left Concubine Lan. No matter how you look at it, the Queen's life is very comfortable. Even though ordinary people have three wives and four concubines, the emperor only has one queen. The Queen is really very lucky.
"The Queen is announcing your entrance to the palace this time to let you know the way. You will often come to the palace to accompany the Queen in the future." Mammy said again.
I thought to myself, this person’s blessing is really quite big.
, a remarried woman actually has such a blessing. Not only did she remarry as an equal wife, but she has now become an official general's wife. In addition, she has been in love with the Queen since childhood. In terms of these points, From now on, there will be at least several decades of stable and prosperous life to enjoy.
"It's all the Queen's grace!" Shui Ruolan smiled. She thought of Shao Wanru, who was well-behaved and lively when she was a child. Now she has become the queen, and she is the only favorite in the harem. Everything in the past seems to be in a dream, giving her There is still an unreal feeling at times.
Who would have thought that an orphan would become the queen today.
Shao Wanru did not live in Fengyi Palace. Chu Liuchen disliked Fengyi Palace and deliberately moved Shao Wanru's residence to his Chenhua Palace. After moving in, he did not let Shao Wanru move out again.
The layout of Chenhua Palace is different from Fengyi Palace where the Queen lives. It looks more majestic, majestic and majestic.
Entering the main hall, Shao Wanru sat at the front seat. Shui Ruolan hurriedly stepped forward to salute. Shao Wanru smiled and asked Yujie to help Shui Ruolan up. Compared with the other maids, Yujie and Shui Ruolan were still the weakest. familiar.
Shui Ruolan, who was a little uneasy at first, relaxed a lot when she saw Yujie.
After sitting down again, Shao Wanru asked with a smile: "How is the old lady's health?"
"Thank you for your concern, the Queen. The old lady is in good health, but she always talks about the Queen. She needs to be more careful about her health right now!" Shui Ruolan looked at Shao Wanru worriedly.
She was now pregnant and in good spirits, which made Shui Ruolan feel relieved.
"There is nothing wrong with me, but the old lady makes me worry. The old lady was not in good health when she was young. I originally wanted to invite the old lady in this time, but the old lady said that she has difficulty walking now." Shao Wanru said softly. road.
Her grandmother was never the wife of the Marquis of Xingguo, only Mrs. Qin. No matter in the previous life or in this life, Mrs. Qin gave her the same care as her own granddaughter.
Although Mrs. Qin is in good health now, she is getting older and has some difficulty walking. Shao Wanru used to go to see her by himself, but now it is inconvenient to see her.
"The old lady is very touched to know that the queen misses her!" Shui Ruolan stood up and knelt down again, "I am here to thank the queen on behalf of the old lady and myself."
Shui Ruolan's eyes turned red as she said this.
Shao Wanru glanced at Yujie who was standing by the side. Yujie hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out her hand to help her up: "Mrs. Shui, please sit down and talk first. Is there anything you can't sit down and talk about first?"
"If it weren't for the Queen this time... all the ministers would be here..." Shui Ruolan bit her lip, lowered her head, and kowtowed three times to Shao Wanru respectfully, and then she helped Yu Jie stand up, " This is why my wife is all over the house, and I want my wife to come and thank you, General... that’s what I mean!”
"Madam, please sit down first!" Shao Wanru knew the meaning of her words and asked Yujie to help her sit down again.
"I have been growing up in the Qin Mansion since I was a child. Even though General Qin has some grudges against me, the old lady and Mrs. Shui have always been very kind to me and have never treated me badly. Even though Qin Ruyu was the general's 'biological daughter' at that time , the old lady has always regarded me as her granddaughter."
Shao Wanru sighed.
This is the gratitude of two lifetimes. In fact, it is more than just words.
He mentioned these things in the book, but he said them too seriously, for fear that Shui Ruolan would panic, so Shao Wanru just took the words here.
"The Queen, I'm so scared!" Shui Ruolan wiped her tears and said, "I'm lucky to have the Queen this time. If it hadn't been for the Queen's intention, I'm afraid the whole house would be full of women..."
Shui Lanruo was really scared here. If Qin Huaiyong really entered the palace and participated in the rebellion, how could their family have a good life now? I heard that many people entered the palace at that time, and the palace was in chaos. In a group, there were people from Prince Cheng, Prince Yue, and Prince Qing, all of whom wanted a share of the spoonful.
There are many people who are of the same rank as Qin Huaiyong, or who are higher than Qin Huaiyong. In the end, they all end up with their families broken up. Shui Ruolan is scared when talking about this. Qin Huaiyong is almost going to enter the palace, right
Fortunately, Shao Wanru sent Yujie to find the old lady, and the old lady persuaded Qin Huaiyong with her. Qin Huaiyong did not go to the palace. Instead, he went to various mansions while the palace was in chaos. When people are not in the house, some people take them away. Afterwards, it is a great contribution to donate these people.
These people were all arranged by the Chu Qing lineage in each government. As soon as Chu Qing in the palace got hold of them, these people took action in each government.
These remnants of the previous dynasty all pretended to be gardeners and entered the flower gardens of various families, or had various relationships with the servants in the flower gardens.
The Qin Mansion also has them, which is why Qin Huaiyong was able to find people from other mansions. The new gardener in the Qin Mansion was caught by the clues provided by Shao Wanru.
Based on this clue, it was easy to catch the remnants of the former dynasty who were ambushing various governments, cutting off Chu Qing's escape route. In the end, when Chu Qing fled, he was easily caught trying to take advantage of these people.
Qin Huaiyong made great achievements as a result.
On the other hand, Shui Ruolan was very grateful to Shao Wanru, but also very scared. If Shao Wanru hadn't sent someone to explain, and if the old lady hadn't persuaded him together, with Qin Huaiyong's temperament, he would have been a radical. If you are not careful, you may become a tool in the hands of others.
He took out a envelope from his arms and handed it over: "Queen, the general asked his wife to present this."
Qin Huaiyong’s letter to himself? Shao Wanru's eyes flashed and he nodded. Qiu'er stepped forward and took the letter and presented it to Shao Wanru. Shao Wanru took it, folded the envelope and read it.
The so-called letter, at this time, is a discount based on my identity.
This is a letter from Qin Huaiyong. The beginning of the letter expresses his gratitude to Shao Wanru, and the latter explains some past events.
Shao Wanru pursed her lips while watching. Sure enough, Qin Huaiyong was cold to him when he was a child because he felt that his father did not save him, but was implicated by his father, which put him in danger. Shao Jing's intervention made him With such a suspicion, he didn't care much about Shao Wanru.
Compared to Shao Wanru, his biological daughter was always more important. Even if he found out that Qin Yuru had plotted against Shao Wanru, he didn't take it to heart.
After entering Beijing, I met Prince Cheng by chance and heard about the calligraphy. I remembered that among the relics left to Shao Wanru by the former crown prince of Duke Xingguo, there seemed to be several calligraphy and paintings, so I went to Shao Wanru's room to check. Yes, I just didn't find it.
