Huayan smiled and sat on the couch next to the queen mother.
Nanny Zhou quickly ordered someone to make the best tea and put it in front of Huayan.
Huayan took a sip from the teacup and said with a smile, "This is a new tea produced in Yunwu Mountain this year, and a few boxes were confiscated."
Nanny Zhou accepted the words with a smile, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince brought this back when he returned to Beijing from Lin'an. The Queen Mother said that she drank tea all her life, so she didn't know that Lin'an's green tea is the best."
The Queen Mother smiled and nodded, "That's right."
Huayan pursed her lips and smiled, "Yunwu Mountain is shrouded in mist all year round. Camellia will be baptized by mist every day from growing to germination to flowering. The natural growth environment makes it different from other teas. However, the output is very small, and the tea is also It is harder to pick than ordinary tea."
The Empress Dowager said repeatedly, "No wonder, this tea has a lingering fragrance and an endless aftertaste. It's really delicious."
Huayan smiled and said, "You like to drink, I will let you give you some every year from now on."
The Queen Mother turned to her with a smile, looked at her for a moment, and saw that Huayan was smiling, her complexion was very bright, but not glaring, extremely elegant, her posture was not very dignified, but it made people look relaxed and comfortable, she nodded, "Okay , Zhu Rongdan you sent is also very good, I have black hair."
Huayan smiled and said, "I'll ask Tian Bujue for some later."
The Empress Dowager's eyes warmed up again, she reached out to take her hand, and said kindly, "It was Aijia who had some prejudice against you in the past, so don't blame Aijia, Aijia loved the prince since she was a child, the palace died early, Aijia For the crown prince, it can be said that it has been a lot of hard work. I am afraid that he will grow crooked, and I am afraid that he will be too thin. Over the years, I am afraid that he will be deep, and then I will be shallow. Now that he has finally grown up, the Ai family is afraid that he will marry someone who is not good. The Crown Princess missed him."
Huayan sighed secretly, she was that ugly princess, she said with a smile, "I was really ignorant before, and I will make sure everything is safe in the future, so as not to cause trouble to His Royal Highness."
There was an obvious smile on the queen mother's face, and her whole body warmed up. She stretched out her hand and patted her hand, "The Ai family is old and short-sighted. In fact, the Ai family should trust the prince. The person he chooses must be in line with his temperament, which is very good." Yes. It’s also because Ai’s eyesight is poor, and he made a fuss without getting to know you well, which also caused trouble for the prince.”
Huayan did not expect the Queen Mother to speak to her so directly, she smiled slightly and said, "The prince never blamed me, nor you."
The queen mother became very happy when she heard this, "You are also a funny kid, yes, I am his imperial grandmother, and you are the concubine he wants to marry in every possible way. Besides the emperor, the person closest to him now is you Me. Even if he is weird, there is nothing he can do about it.”
Huayan was also very happy, "Exactly."
Nanny Zhou and the waiters also laughed.
After joking around, the atmosphere became more harmonious.
The Empress Dowager and Huayan chatted for a long while, the Empress Dowager asked about the landforms of Lin'an, then asked Hua's parents and seniors, and then talked about the Southwest region, half a day passed in this conversation.
Hua Yanjian said what she could say. When talking about the situation in the Southwest, every sentence praised the prince for his wisdom and powerful methods. How did he conquer the Southwest and make all the officials obedient? The Queen Mother was delighted to hear it.
Huayan knows that she likes to listen to this the most, and it is her credit for teaching Yunchi to be so capable, so she is proud of it.
If Huayan really coaxes people, she is very good at coaxing people. When she speaks out her words, it will make people feel comfortable. Not only the Queen Mother is smiling, but also the maids, eunuchs and nuns of Ninghe Palace are all smiling.
Xiao Zhongzi and Cai Qing stood at the door and looked at each other, Qi Qi thought to himself, there is no need for His Highness to worry about the empress dowager making things difficult for the crown princess, and the queen mother was coaxed by the crown prince.
Hua Yan thinks that old people are the most easy to coax, especially old people like the queen mother, who are always stubborn and strong-tempered and in the position of the queen mother, presumably there are few people who dare to speak the truth to her in front of her and chat with her all over the world. , she is lonely, and now when she is also trying to accept her and talk to her kindly to repair the relationship, she takes the opportunity to coax her a little bit with her heart, and she smiles happily.
At noon, Mother Zhou saw that the Queen Mother was still in good spirits and hadn't chatted with Huayan enough, so she reminded happily, "Queen Mother, it's noon, it's time for lunch."
The Queen Mother laughed and said repeatedly, "Oh, the Ai family has forgotten the time, don't starve Yan'er, hurry up and set up lunch."
Nanny Zhou answered with a smile, and immediately ordered people to go.
As soon as the people who went to the imperial dining room to pass the news reached the door, they met Yun Chi who came to Ninghe Palace with an umbrella, and hurriedly greeted him.
Yun Chi smiled and ordered, "Tell the Imperial Dining Room that I also have lunch at the Imperial Grandmother's place today, add two more dishes."
The man answered quickly and left in a hurry.
When Mother Zhou heard that Yun was late, she was very happy to pass on
, "Queen Mother, His Royal Highness is here."
The queen mother was stunned for a moment, then laughed again, and said to Huayan, "Look, how much he cares about you, how long has it been since he came to Ai's house for lunch, as soon as you came, he came, about It is because I am afraid that the Ai family will bully you, and it is not enough to send Xiao Zhongzi to follow you, so I came to see myself."
Huayan smiled lightly, "He came to you for dinner because he was tired of the food in the meeting hall. It's none of my business. Otherwise, after he comes in, you can ask him to see if that's the case."
The queen mother gave a "hmm" and said with a smile, "Okay, Aijia waits for him to come in, just ask him to see if you are right, and Aijia is right."
Hua Yan nodded with a smile, and when she saw Yun Chi coming outside the hall, she used voice transmission to enter the secret and told him what she had just said.
Yun Chi paused at the door, then burst out laughing, then handed the umbrella to Xiao Zhongzi, and stepped over the threshold.
The queen mother was really coaxing, and after meeting Yun Chi, she asked him about it.
Yun Chi followed Huayan's sound transmission into the secret, and repeated what Huayan said.
"Oh!" The queen mother was very surprised, she looked at Yunchi in wonder, and then at Huayan, "Do you two have a good understanding?" After finishing speaking, she asked Nanny Zhou, "Which one of you has sent a message to the prince?"
Nanny Zhou and the others were also amazed and shook their heads in unison.
The queen mother slapped her thigh, and said to Huayan with a rare smile, "No wonder the prince insists on marrying you. If I knew you were so connected, why would the Ai family be that villain before offending this one and that one? .”
Hua Yan pursed her lips and smiled.
Yun Chi glanced at Huayan with a smile, and saw that her brows and eyes were wide open, extremely clear and eye-catching, and when she saw him, she blinked at him, quite mischievously, as if she was very agile, and she was the same as before , he was also in a good mood, and said with a cheerful smile, "I and the princess have a very good understanding. The imperial grandmother's test of this can't help us."
The queen mother said with a smile, "Okay, okay, it's enough for the Ai family to suffer once, and I won't test you with this in the future." After saying that, she smiled and waved to him, "Sit down quickly, the Ai family sees that you have lost weight. Is the matter of water control in the Chuanhe Valley still undecided?"
Yun Chi sat next to Huayan, smiled and said, "Today's morning has been settled."
Nanny Zhou stepped forward to pour a cup of tea, before she could bring it over, Huayan reached out to bring it over, and handed it to Yunchi. She did it casually, which stunned Nanny Zhou for a moment.
Yun Chi reached out to take it, took a sip, and smiled at the corners of his brows and eyes.
The Empress Dowager looked at it with clear eyes, and the smile on her face deepened. Now she talked to Huayan after half a day today. The more she looked at Huayan, the more she liked her. She found that Huayan didn't have the petty air of a small family that was said in the rumors, and she had a very big heart. Open-minded, talking and laughing with witty words like pearls, eloquently, with a very broad vision, sometimes when she asked her opinion on a certain matter, he was able to quote the classics without losing the same as the world's great scholars, with a strong heart.
She was surprised and surprised and secretly liked it. If she felt that there was something inappropriate and unsatisfactory earlier, it has already disappeared. She boasted that when she was a girl, she had read countless classics and learned countless truths, and she was used to reading some books every day when she was a queen mother, but she was not as good as Huayan. From her mouth, everything in the world is like a storyteller What she said was even better, making people secretly admire her for being so insightful at such a young age.
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "It's decided who will go."
Yun Chi smiled and said, "An Shuli brought some officials from the Ministry of Industry over there, and we will leave tomorrow."
The Queen Mother nodded, "I heard that something happened to Mr. An in the Zhao Mansion yesterday, which alarmed you to go to the Zhao Mansion. What's so serious this morning, Princess Anyang stopped Miss Zhao from leaving the city?"
Yun Chi smiled lightly, "It's a small matter, don't bother Grandmother, you are not in good health, you should calm down and take care of yourself."
The queen mother laughed angrily, turned to Huayan and said, "Look at him, he really hates Aijia."
Huayan pursed her lips and smiled, "His Royal Highness is filial. As the saying goes, there is no worry about everything, and there is no worry for a hundred years."
The queen mother liked to hear this, she pointed at Huayan and said with a smile, "Just your clever mouth, you really know how to coax people." After saying that, she said to Yunchi, "Okay, just don't ask about Aijia. Today you Just leave Yan'er in Ninghe Palace and let her accompany Aijia."
Yun Chi shook his head, "If Grandmother likes her, I'll just bring her into the palace tomorrow. You can't detain her and make your grandson sleepless."
Huayan blushed, turned her head and glared at Yunchi, "I'm not ashamed to say anything."
Yun Chi smiled lowly, "It's the truth."
The Queen Mother laughed and pointed at Yunchi, "The Ai family really didn't realize it before, that's all, that's all, I'll listen to you."
