Chapter 96

Views:

After returning to the capital, the couple got busy.

After settling down their daughter, the couple rested for a night, and then they were busy the next day.

Chu Ba Ning went out before dawn, and Ananda was sleepy because of the severe motion sickness earlier. Originally, she planned to go to the palace to greet the Queen Mother on the second day of her return. Although the Queen Mother didn't like her, she still liked this kind of formalism, but this decision was refuted by a certain prince with a black face. It's because her body hasn't recovered yet, so she rested for a few days. For this reason, Chu Baning even sent someone directly into the palace to inform the queen mother.

Ananda could imagine how exciting the empress dowager's face would be when she heard her son's message. But compared to the queen mother-in-law who was separated by one floor, Ananda was more afraid of the prince's bad face, so he decided to be an obedient and good wife. In fact, her legs and feet are weak now, and she wished she could lie on the bed for one more day until she woke up naturally.

Of course, Ananda couldn't really rest for a few days before entering the palace, it was just a day's delay.

When Ananda slept until he woke up naturally, the sun was about to dry his buttocks, and the little girl couldn't bear it anymore and ran to her bed to act wildly—the chubby hand dared to pinch her, Ananda pinched her back unceremoniously, and the little guy had a pair of pinches. Her black eyes were foggy, Ru Lan really couldn't stand it anymore, how could there be such a bad mother who bullied her daughter

"Mother..."

"Good morning, baby~~" Ananda kissed the poor little bun.

The little bun was really easy to coax, so he immediately put his arms around her neck and stopped talking.

Ananda had eaten breakfast, and carrying the little bun who was tired of her and refused to leave, went to the flower hall to meet Butler Qin, Nanny An and others.

Probably in a new environment, the little guy is not used to it, he refuses to go down with the nanny, clings to her tightly, and follows her wherever she goes, like a little tail. As a last resort, Ananda had no choice but to carry her to work together.

Sitting at the main seat in the side hall, Ananda listened to the reports from Butler Qin and Nanny An. Since the two masters in the mansion were not there, the palace usually closed the door to thank guests, and no one would come to the door. Even if there were a lot of gifts received during Chinese New Year, Madam An sorted them out and put them away. She didn't need to worry about these, and there were no important things, but there were some books or lists that she needed to look over.

After listening to the report, I spent some time looking at the account books, which added up to a whole morning. Starting in the afternoon, there are some chores. And a certain little bun stayed by her side without saying a word, and did not climb out of bed to play early like other children. It seems that for children, after arriving in a new environment, they will feel that staying with their parents is the best way to go. It's a relatively safe thing to do.

King Su and Princess Su are back, and the news has spread to every corner of the capital in less than half a day.

Now, everyone has become numb to the legendary Concubine Su who should be killed. They think that this is an immortal and sturdy master. Not only was she not killed, but she was alive and kicking. Now that one is out, is there anything she can't do? Therefore, I believe that even if she lives to be seventy or eighty and dies naturally in the future, everyone in the capital will think this is a very normal thing.

However, what made everyone secretly wonder was that there was no other woman beside King Su except a princess, which made people's hearts aroused again. I don't know if Princess Su's fate is too hard, so she was not killed, or the fate of Su Wang's wife and son has been broken, so she can send the woman there? However, if the reason is that Princess Su's life is too hard, will the woman be killed if she is sent there

Therefore, the ministers and aristocratic families who secretly wanted to send a woman to King Su to blow the pillow wind were a little worried. But the undecided people decided to start with Su Wangfei first, and see what Su Wang's situation is. Of course, they don't need to be in a hurry, there is still a queen mother who is very concerned about King Su's private life, so let the queen mother be a pioneer to explore the situation first.

As a result, the dark waves in the capital were turbulent, and Ananda was almost overwhelmed by a bunch of posts.

Posts from the family members of various ministers, and banquets where she was invited to enjoy flowers and listen to music under various names appeared endlessly. Ananda almost thought that he had done some earth-shattering and touching deeds to be so popular. However, after digging around, I found out that this is the diplomacy between my wife. Or, they also want to see how the legendary Princess Su who was not killed was killed

On the first day of Ananda's return, Rubi, who asked for inquiries, came to inquire about the situation in the lower capital. Hearing Rubi's evaluation of her from outsiders, she really couldn't laugh or cry.

To tell the truth, Ananda never showed his face among the female family members of the upper class in the capital, and he was at the stage where he only heard his name but didn't see him. Not long after she became Concubine Su, she went to Tongcheng with Su Wang. She stayed there for almost three years. It can be said that she had never shown her face in front of the wives and women in the capital. Everyone was very curious about her. Now, the female relatives of various prefectures go to the banquet to enjoy flowers in various names, Ananda feels a little bit...

Anan took a look, and handed over these posts to Nanny An, and asked her to pick out the ones that couldn't be rejected. For the wives of other low-ranking officials, they just gave a gift to celebrate their birthdays. up.

***********

It took a day to deal with the affairs of the mansion, and the next day, shortly after Chu Baning went out, Ananda also got up.

Although Chu Baning had ordered someone to go to the palace to inform the queen mother about her physical condition and let her recuperate before entering the palace, but Ananda knew that the queen mother had a temper and came back by herself, so she used her body as an excuse to be so lame The old man finally came back, even if he was sick and half dead, he should crawl to show his heart to his mother-in-law~~

Therefore, Ananda decided to enter the palace as soon as possible to greet the queen mother and her elderly, so as to show her filial piety.

After letting the maid dress up for herself, Ananda took her daughter into the palace to see the queen mother-in-law.

When the carriage arrived in front of the palace, Ananda got out of the carriage with his daughter in his arms.

Horse-drawn carriages are not allowed in the imperial city, only walking is allowed. So Ananda could only walk hard on his own two legs to the Chonghua Palace of the Empress Dowager, followed by the maid and the nanny in small steps.

It was her little girl who made Ananda a little helpless.

Such a little person, who just learned to walk, was taught by her father to be self-reliant and not to tire her mother. So, the little bun refused to let Ananda hug him, and he didn't want to be hugged by the nanny, but walked to the Chonghua Palace with two short legs with a strong backbone. It's nothing, but Xiao Baozi is too small after all, he will be tired, and he will stop when he is tired, so Ananda can only stop and wait for her. In the end, according to Xiao Baozi's way of walking, he didn't know when he would be able to reach the Chonghua Palace. At that time, the queen mother didn't know how angry she would be.

Alas, the elderly have high blood lipids, so it is not good to be too angry!

As a last resort, Ananda had no choice but to coax the little bun and let her be hugged by the nanny or court lady.

"Mother, Chuchu, let's go." Xiao Baozi said angrily, as if annoyed that everyone underestimated her.

"..."

Ananda looked at the sky speechlessly, you little girl, you are walking on your own, the distance is only two hundred meters, didn't you see that they have been dawdling for ten minutes

So, people walking in the palace saw a little bun who looked very much like King Su, stubbornly wanting to walk to Chonghua Palace by himself, with that tight bun face and two chubby hands behind his back, It seemed that King Su, who was alive and well, appeared in front of him. It's just that this is a Su Wang brand bun in women's clothing, can you stop being so cute

************

In the Chonghua Palace, the Empress Dowager's complexion was beyond description.

An hour ago, the guards at the gate of the palace received the news that Su Wangfei had entered the palace, so the queen mother began to wait. After waiting for an hour, even if the tortoise crawled slowly, it would have reached it, right

At this time, a nanny came in, with a smile on her face that she couldn't help, and said to the obviously angry queen mother: "Don't be angry, empress dowager, Ninggu went out to see just now, the reason why Princess Su has not arrived is because The reason for the little princess."

"Little princess? Is it the daughter of Concubine Su? The one called Chu Yun?" The queen mother frowned slightly, feeling quite disappointed that Ananda gave birth to a daughter, and she didn't even like the little princess.

"Yes. Empress Dowager, you can never imagine how much the little princess looks like the prince when he was young. Hey~ even his temper is similar! Seeing the little princess, I think you will think of the prince when he was young." The mother said with a smile.

The queen mother's heart moved, and the expression on her face was a little sad, but it was only for a moment, and she changed the subject, "You said it was because of Chu Yun? What happened? Could it be that Yun'er is not feeling well?" Speaking of this possibility , The Empress Dowager's complexion suddenly changed. Although she doesn't like the little girl, she still cares about her as the youngest son's first daughter.

"The little princess is fine! It's just that she wants to come by herself to see you, the queen mother. Look, our little princess is so filial. At such a young age, she insists on coming here by herself, just to show filial piety to the queen mother~~ "

Mammy's words were very popular, and the empress dowager's displeasure was somewhat relieved by her words, and she began to feel surprised and happy, and she couldn't help showing an interested expression and said: "Remember, Ai, that child Yun'er is now He's only seventeen months old, right? Can such a young child insist on walking from the palace gate to here?"

"Yeah, the little princess is very filial, but if she has to come here by herself, even Princess Su can't coax her. So, the servant thinks, the little princess must miss the emperor's grandmother very much, so she will be here at such a young age. persevere."

The empress dowager was overjoyed by the nanny's clever words, and couldn't help but began to look forward to the granddaughter whom she had never met.

When Ananda finally arrived at the Chonghua Palace with her stubborn little bun, she was a little surprised to find that the queen mother was not only not angry, but looked at them kindly with a smile on her face—er, it should be kindly looking at the little bun. steamed stuffed bun.

Ananda brought her daughter to ask for Ann, and quickly explained why she was late, "Mother, I'm really sorry, because Chuchu..."

Before she finished speaking, the queen mother interrupted her, "Come on, Princess Su, quickly bring Yun'er over to show the Ai family."

Ananda was a little puzzled, he didn't know why the queen mother was swollen, but he dutifully took the little bun to show the queen mother.

"Mother~" Xiao Baozi held Ananda's hand tightly, and looked curiously at the smiling queen mother with a pair of eyes.

Ananda smiled at her comfortingly, and said softly: "Come on, Chuchu, this is the emperor's grandmother, called the emperor's grandmother."

"Pig mother?"

Little Baozi blinked and blinked, repeating like a parrot.

"..."

The Empress Dowager's face suddenly became very exciting.

Ananda was dumbfounded, so it could be called that

The maids and nuns were also dumbfounded.

Ananda wiped off the sweat in his heart, and quickly said: "Chuchu, it's wrong, it's grandma! Grandma!" Hurry up and teach the little girl the correct pronunciation, otherwise the little guy will make the Queen Mother hate her. Maybe a little bit of that.

Ananda now regrets that this month, he forgot to teach the little girl to call someone because of the motion sickness. The others are fine, but the queen mother is a master who cannot be offended. So, the little girl should tighten her skin a bit, so as not to teach the queen mother to bear the grudge, and it will be miserable to come here to find trouble from now on.

"Pig mother! Pig... mother... Zhu... mother... mistress..."

In the quiet Chonghua Palace, there are only the immature voices of children, the voices of babies, full of childishness. Of course, it would be nice if her pronunciation wasn't so tongue-tied.

"Chuchu, grandma, come, talk to mother, grandma." Ananda taught patiently, the queen mother had already restrained her expression and sat on the pit, with a neither salty nor light expression, letting Ananda know that the queen mother was annoyed up.

The little bun looked at her mother, then turned to the queen mother who was sitting on the pit and called softly: "Grandmother!"

As soon as the standard "grandmother" came out, the empress dowager's face became less tense, and the quiet Chonghua Palace seemed to come to life, with all kinds of flattering sounds endless.

"Oh, the little princess is really smart!"

"Look at the cleverness of the little princess, she is clearly like the empress dowager!"

...

Ananda smiled and watched the queen mother hold the little bun in her arms, teasing her lovingly, and couldn't help but twist his mouth in his heart. The cleverness of her little bun is inherited from Chu Baning, but it has nothing to do with the Queen Mother.

Apparently, what the nanny said before had an effect. Looking at the little girl in her arms, the queen mother really felt all kinds of love, especially the little face that looked so much like King Su, and the pretentious The appearance made the Queen Mother couldn't help but think of her son when he was a child, with a smiling face like Maitreya Buddha. However, if you like little buns, you like little buns, but your mother doesn't like little buns.

No, after teasing Xiao Baozi, the Empress Dowager's eyes stopped on Ananda, her expression was indifferent, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

"Concubine Su has been away for three years, and she seems to be quite quiet."

Ananda's face, which has not yet recovered from the rest, is indeed not so round compared to three years ago - anyone who suffers from motion sickness like that, and can't eat or sleep well, will lose weight quickly. So what the Queen Mother said was right.

"Thank you mother for your concern. My daughter-in-law was caused by motion sickness on the road. She will recover after a few days of recuperation. But mother, I haven't seen you for three years. Her body is still so healthy, which makes my daughter-in-law very happy."

"Hmph, if you care so much about Aijia's body, why would you send back the person Aijia sent to serve?" The Queen Mother couldn't help but choked. She just couldn't bear the naive look of this daughter-in-law, but was spoiled like a heart by her son.

Therefore, since ancient times, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have always been opposites!

"The queen mother has wronged my daughter-in-law. There are already people around the daughter-in-law who are waiting for you. The prince is considerate of you, the queen mother, so you don't want them to stay. I am afraid that the queen mother will not be used to it if they are not around." Ananda pressed the handkerchief. Press the corner of the eye to show your "grievance".

The corner of the queen mother's mouth twitched, and found that no matter how many years passed, the daughter-in-law's mouth was still unpleasant. As soon as I came back, I wanted to piss her off, she really is a "good" daughter-in-law! How did she choose this daughter-in-law in the first place

"Pig mother..." Xiao Baozi next to him yelled tenderly.

The Queen Mother's mouth twitched even more.

Both mother and daughter are angry with her!

The queen mother kept herself from getting angry, and looked at the little bun who was sitting on the side eating biscuits and staring at the person with a pair of cute eyes. Because there was something stuffed in her mouth, "grandmother" and so on suddenly became vague Unclear "pig mother". Although the queen mother likes the little bun in her heart, she also thinks that the bun's face is serious, which really makes her feel like when she is facing her little son, as if she is training her daughter-in-law in front of her son at this time, and there is some pressure Big mountain.

Of course, the Empress Dowager did not invite Ananda into the palace today to make things difficult for her, but just to see her granddaughter.

The queen mother was not happy that Ananda gave birth to a daughter, but she would not be in a hurry to take action in a day or two. Anyway, King Su came back and he was in the capital, so she was not afraid of him running away. No matter how fortified people or something, they can't act so casually and recklessly. The queen mother now understands her son's temper towards women, and knows that he will never want other women except Princess Su. So, she is not in a hurry now, and decided to wait until she finds an opportunity before making a move, lest her son sweep him out of the mansion without saving face, and show the people in Beijing a joke again!

So, next, the queen mother tried not to let herself be angry with Ananda, and slowly asked about their life in Tongcheng, especially caring about their son's situation.

However, although the queen mother kept herself from getting angry, the sage couldn't bear the sage's unbearable appearance with that person's naive appearance and inadvertently saying some embarrassing words. The little bun, the long-lost sense of aggrieved again made the empress dowager worry.

So, Ananda didn't stay long today before being kicked out by the Queen Mother.
