The next day, Ananda was pushed awake while half asleep.

Ananda opened his sore eyes and vaguely saw a man in a black court dress in front of the bed. He was startled in vain and immediately woke up. Ananda rubbed his sore eyes, and looked at him in a daze, unable to react for a while.

Sitting by the bed, Chu Baning saw his little wife with fluffy hair on her head, her eyes were confused, the corners of her lips raised slightly, then she straightened her lips quickly, picked Ananda up, brought her her clothes, and said : "Ananda, wake up quickly, you are about to enter the palace."

Ananda snorted, took the clothes slowly, and stared at him.

Chu Baning turned around.

The autumn morning in the north was already chilly. Ananda was wearing a white singlet, and felt a gust of air-conditioning pouring in. Change clothes behind the screen.

Since Chu Baning doesn't like being close to people, he always does such small things as putting on clothes by himself. As a member of this feudal society where you marry a chicken and follow a chicken, and marry a dog as a dog, Ananda's beautiful and depraved days of "clothes and food" are so far away that they seem to have happened in her previous life, which makes her very sad.

After Ananda got dressed, maids and nuns came in and helped them wash. Ananda sat in front of the dressing table and asked Rucui Rulan to do her hair.

Because of Chu Baning's sudden request last night, Ananda suffered from insomnia for half the night. When he woke up early this morning, he naturally had two dark circles under his eyes. Also due to lack of sleep, Apple's face turned pale, and it looked a bit sluggish. sauerkraut.

Ananda knew that there was a tough battle to be fought today, so he tried his best to cheer up and asked the maid to help him put on light makeup to cover up the dark circles, but the effect didn't seem to be great

When Ananda got dressed, breakfast was already served.

Chu Baning took a look at Ananda's attire. He was dressed in a green palace attire, standing there pretty, adding a new green color to the cool autumn day. The maid tied a woman's bun for her, and the headdress on her head was very simple. Although she looked wealthy, there was no trace of gold ornaments that symbolized power.

Chu Baning just glanced at it briefly, and then had breakfast with Ananda.

After breakfast, the servants have prepared the chariot.

At this time, the sky was still a little dark, and there were few people on the street in the early morning, only the carriages of some officials who also went to the early court passed by, and the atmosphere was cold and solemn.

It took half an hour to drive into the palace. Ananda sat with her skirt on the side of the car, feeling drowsy in this quiet and cold morning. Chu Baning saw that her figure was shaking a little, she fell into a state where she might fall asleep at any time, her long eyelashes drooped slightly, casting a shadow under her eyes.

Suddenly, Ananda was embraced by a pair of arms into a warm embrace, and then a somewhat familiar male voice said, "You can take a nap, and I will call you later."

Ananda's body froze, and then relaxed again, leaning against Chu Baning's arms, closing his eyes and falling asleep.

The carriage pulley stopped in front of the palace gate.

When Ananda was woken up by Chu Baning's soft voice, he was still a little dazed. When he heard Mu Yuaner outside say, "My lord, my concubine, I've arrived at the palace." hair accessories.

Ananda only brought Rulan into the palace this time, and Rucui was the second, afraid that she would say something stupid in front of the queen mother and be left in the palace. This is the first time that Ananda married Queen Su and visited her mother-in-law as a bride, and her mother-in-law is also the most honorable woman in the world, so how could she not be nervous.

Ananda saw the queen mother only once in his life. In the past, because her status was not qualified, she didn't need to enter the palace at all. And the last time I saw the Queen Mother, because she was worried that she would not do well, she behaved well, and didn't even dare to glance at her surroundings. The impression of the Queen Mother was that she was a middle-aged woman who was a little rich and kind. It is definitely not easy for a woman to be a queen mother, Ananda firmly believes in this. If she knew that the whole flower viewing banquet was specially chosen by the queen mother for King Su, not to mention that she would not do anything special, the prime minister's wife would definitely do everything possible to prevent her from entering the palace.

"Don't be nervous, the queen mother is fine." Chu Baning could see Ananda's nervousness, and shook her hand when no one was around.

Ananda reluctantly smiled at him, not feeling comforted. Since ancient times, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been difficult to explain, and her mother-in-law is still a woman who has climbed to the position of queen mother. It is difficult for her, an unqualified little white girl, to not be nervous. , It also made it difficult for Chu Baning. A man is caught between his mother and his wife. No matter how much he likes his wife, his heart is still toward his mother who gave birth to him.

In Ananda's tension, they came to the Chonghua Palace of the Empress Dowager.

As soon as I arrived at Chonghua Palace, there was already a maid waiting in front of the palace. Seeing them, Gong'e showed a joyful smile and said, "My lord, my concubine, I am looking forward to seeing you!"

"Aunt Ning, is the queen mother up?" Chu Baning's voice was relatively soft, and he seemed to have great respect for Aunt Ning.

"It's already up, even the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowagers are here! However, the Empress Dowager thinks that too many people are making her old man a headache, so she directly sends the empresses from all the palaces away, leaving only the Empress Empress and Concubine Shu." Aunt Ning said .

Aunt Ning is an old man in the Chonghua Palace. She is a court lady who is used to by the Empress Dowager. She can be regarded as watching Chu Baning grow up. The Emperor Chongde and Chu Baning respect her so much that Chonghua Palace respects her Very respectful. The queen mother asked Aunt Ning to wait here directly, so it is conceivable that she cares about Princess Su.

Entering the palace, the queen mother is already sitting on the main seat, and the queen is sitting on one side. The seat below the queen is a young and beautiful concubine, who is one of the four concubines, Concubine Shu, the eldest daughter of Prime Minister Lu who married into the palace. , Ananda's eldest sister. This is also the reason why the Empress Dowager left Concubine Shu alone. After all, Ananda is Concubine Shu's younger sister, and now she is married to a prince. How can she come to the palace to pay respects to the Empress Dowager

"My son has seen the empress!" After the queen mother called out, Chu Baning turned to the empress and concubine Shu, "I have seen the empress and concubine Shu."

Ananda also respectfully stepped forward to pay respects to each of them.

The queen mother looked at the youngest son who was finally married with kindness, with a look of relief, and cared about Chu Baning's daily life in a gentle voice. Ananda was a bride, and he couldn't get in the way, so Chu Baning answered them one by one.

Then began to serve tea.

Ananda took the tea prepared by Gong'e, walked up to the Empress Dowager in small steps, and said docilely: "Mother, please drink tea."

The queen mother didn't make things difficult for Ananda, took the tea directly, took a shallow sip, and then had Gong'e take it. The queen mother squinted her eyes and looked at Ananda, not knowing what she was thinking. Ananda felt guilty when she looked at her, until the queen mother glanced at the old nanny who was standing beside her, and the old nanny nodded to her almost imperceptibly, the queen mother finally smiled, smiling very lovingly at Ananda, He took Ananda's hand and looked at her in detail, his eyes were kind and gentle, as if Ananda was her beloved daughter.

The people present are all human beings, how come they didn't notice the strangeness of the Queen Mother? The corner of the queen's eyes twitched, and she covered her mouth with a veil to cover up. Only the concubine Shu pursed her lips and looked at Ananda with warm eyes.

After serving tea, Chu Baning saw that the queen mother liked Ananda's appearance very much, so he was relieved, and after talking for a while, he left Chonghua Palace to work.

"Ananda, King Su of Ai's family will be handed over to you. King Su is the youngest son of Ai's family, and Ai's family loves him the most. Ai's family lives in the palace and cannot take care of him all the time. A person who knows the cold and the hot takes care of him, and now that he is finally married, Ai's family can be regarded as a worry."

"Mother-in-law, this is what a daughter-in-law should do." Anyone can say good things, even though Ananda is clumsy, but her voice is sweet and waxy, and her smile is simple and cute, as if it is sweet to people's hearts.

The queen on the side also laughed and said: "Mother, Su Wangfei is a good one. It is the mother who chose well. When the concubine sees Su Wangfei, she likes it in her heart."

The queen heard what the queen said, and the queen mother smiled like a flower when she heard it. Who doesn't know the fate of Su Wang Chuba Ningke's wife and son, who has been delayed until his twenties without getting married. Generally, a man of his age is already the father of several children. There are no maids here, so one can imagine how sad it is. No minister or official is willing to marry a good daughter of his own to King Su, because they are afraid that their daughter will die in various ways as soon as they get engaged.

This time, if the queen mother hadn't directly asked the emperor to make an order, Ananda might not have married King Su, and maybe there would not have been so many disasters. No one in the capital knows that ever since the youngest daughter of the prime minister's family married Su Wang, she has been a good girl, and there have been frequent accidents in three days. Even the tea ceremony was delayed until now because of a broken leg. Now, Gong'e in the Chonghua Palace couldn't help quietly watching Su Wangfei's face, she looked a little haggard, and she felt that her life was not good, and she didn't know when someone who was not careful would disappear.

The queen's face was calm, and she already thought that Princess Su would not live long, and felt that Princess Su was also a pitiful one, but she was forced to marry King Su. When she saw it at the flower viewing banquet a month ago, she was still a pink and tender girl. The doll is as sweet and soft as a flower, now... I feel that Concubine Su is showing signs of evolving into a yellow-faced woman, and she is the kind who will disappear at any time.
