The empress often lives in Fengyi Palace, and she hasn't seen her face for a long time since she was bedridden with illness last year.Even important occasions like the New Year's Eve Banquet are entrusted to Concubine Xian as the agent.

Wen Ning thought that this life was about the same as the previous life, and she would not have the chance to see the empress.

But he didn't expect her to summon her alone at this time.

I don't know when snowflakes fell outside, the huge palace, once away from the bustling Zhaoxia Palace, it was empty and cold, with gusts of cold wind.

Wen Ning was so surprised when she heard the decree that she forgot to take Tang Pozi with her. At this time, she didn't know whether she was nervous, or she was really cold, and her body was shaking slightly.

Let alone Linglan, Empress Empress!

How many girls' role models, especially girls of their age, almost grew up listening to the stories of the empress, a character who is as far away as a fairy in the sky, can actually step into the palace of the empress in person today.

"Girl." Seeing that Fengyi Palace was about to arrive, Linglan pulled Wenning's cuff, and said in a very low voice, "Shall I enter the palace with you later?"

Even though it was an extremely soft voice, the father-in-law in front still heard it, turned around and said, "Ma'am, the Empress only summoned you."

The meaning was obvious, Linglan immediately pursed her lips, and did not dare to speak anymore.

Seeing the obedient little girl lying on the side of the couch looking at him curiously, Zhanyan laughed.

It's just Jiangnan and his party. After all, she is with Pei You, so it is inevitable that she will talk about some things related to Pei You.

"Did Ah Ning finish eating at the banquet just now?"

As soon as she saw her, she showed a smile, and then blessed her body: "Madam, please come with your servants."

"Give him candy." Wen Ning covered her mouth and smiled, "Your Majesty can't imagine that he is so cold and arrogant, and like a child, he loves candy."

Xie Nanzhi asked again: "Why?"

Xie Nanzhi looked at Wen Ning, with lingering eyebrows and eyes slightly bent, not like a queen of a country, but like a kind and loving elder, touching Wen Ning's cheek: "You just came back from Jiangnan with your son, then you will be together Let me tell you something interesting that happened in Jiangnan?"

Xie Nanzhi, the eldest daughter of the Xie family, married into the East Palace at the age of 15 and entered the Fengyi Palace. She gave birth to Princess Zhaohe at the age of 20. She is just forty-three this year.

"I couldn't get up when you and... the crown prince got married, so I didn't go to see you two." Xie Nanzhi took off the handkerchief that she carried with her, and gently wiped the snowflake water on her hair, calling the people around her Mammy, "Sang Liu, bring the things here."

Wen Ning could clearly hear her heart beating faster.

Wen Ning didn't know that there were so many interesting things worth talking about in Jiangnan, but she didn't know what happened, and then she kept talking around Pei You.

The empress was probably really sick, the more she walked inside, the smell of the medicine became stronger, and she heard a few coughs.

Wen Ning felt that the empress probably also loved this nephew very much. Hearing these things, she sometimes smiled and sometimes hilariously, her eyes seemed to be burning with a small fire, and even her sickness was dispelled a lot.

She glanced at Sang Liu.

Probably due to her illness, she didn't apply any makeup on her face, and she was even a little morbidly pale, but it didn't hinder the delicacy of her facial features. Age hardly left any traces on her face, only adding to her face, which is completely different from ordinary women. Ronghua temperament.

From the corner of the eye, he saw a figure sitting halfway on the couch, and immediately knelt down to salute: "Ms. Pei Wen, see the empress, the empress is a thousand years old!"

"Of course." What Wen Ning said meant what she felt, "Ah Ning is flattered."

Wen Ning was looking at Xie Nanzhi, but Xie Nanzhi was also looking at Wen Ning.

Oh my god, the Empress is so gentle and gentle, no wonder Emperor Jiahe has favored him for many years, if it wasn't for the sake of prolonging his offspring, he would not even accept her in the harem.

Before entering Fengyi Palace, Wen Ning bowed to the palace maid and said: "It's cold today, please take my maidservant to the side hall to wait, I have to thank you, Father-in-law."

"Of course! There was a group of scholars at that time, and they followed him wherever he talked. Listening to what he said was better than studying for ten years! They thought I was the same as them. When they left Huzhou, they insisted on leaving me my address. They will exchange letters in the future. How dare I keep it, but if I keep it, it will be the address of the Duke's Mansion!"

"Will he still trick you into drinking?"

Wen Ning sat on her knees and raised her head.

"Your Majesty, don't look at him as a dignified gentleman and as gentle as jade, he is actually quite difficult to get along with."

Isn't it just personal taste?
The smile on Xie Nanzhi's face suddenly didn't look so good, the fire in his eyes disappeared, making his face look a little pale: "It's because I suffered too much when I was young..."

Wen Ning blinked, looked at Xie Nanzhi who was about to cry, and at Sangliu who was quite serious.

Wen Ning nodded repeatedly.

Turn around and want to leave.

The lively atmosphere just now suddenly fell silent.

Wen Ning stared blankly at Xie Nanzhi, only to feel that the empress who was smiling just now seemed about to cry in a blink of an eye.

But she didn't intend to brag about Pei You, whom she didn't like so much, in front of her favorite empress.

Wen Ning took a deep breath involuntarily.

Xie Nanzhi still smiled softly, and gently lifted Wen Ning, who was kneeling on the footrest, to let her sit directly on the edge of the couch.

The nervousness just now has been replaced by excitement and curiosity, empress empress, the model of women that Teacher Kai Meng said, the woman whom Emperor Jiahe loved all his life.

"Yes!" The sachet she gave him was full of candy, and I don't know if he noticed it.

Linglan was so moved that she almost burst into tears.

Fengyi Palace was obviously well prepared. In this weather and at this hour, the door of the palace was wide open, and there were two servants standing respectfully at the door, each with their heads lowered and their eyes lowered, without giving Wen Ning a second look.

Thinking of the empress's long illness, she probably wanted to go out of the palace to have a look, so she introduced the folk customs, architectural features, and lake scenery in the south of the Yangtze River very carefully.

Wen Ning squeezed the sachet by her side, took a deep breath, and saw a kind-hearted nun come out from the inner room: "Madam is here."

"Then Ah Ning, would you like to chat with me?"

Wen Ning couldn't help but grabbed the sachet by her side and followed her inside.

Wen Ning blinked guiltyly, this Pei Yuli's favorite wife character, even the empress knew about it.

Only Sang Liu was left in Fengyi Palace, but she didn't look deserted.

Probably because there is no Pei You by her side this time.

"Ah Ning? Can I call you Ah Ning too?" She gently held Wen Ning's hand.

Sure enough, Xie Nanzhi picked up the sachet with the Feifeng jade plaque on it, and said with a slight smile, "Although I am sick, but when I feel better, I embroidered this pair of sachets for the two of you. "

Wen Ning didn't dare to raise her head to look around. She felt that Fengyi Palace was not as magnificent as imagined, but rather simple and elegant. It was probably because the queen was ill and it was very warm. She was a person who was afraid of the cold. I feel sweat on my back.

Xie Nanzhi also seemed very interested, and occasionally asked.

Wen Ning was flattered by the empress's intimate behavior, and when the nanny called Sang Liu came to her with a tray, she was a little stunned and couldn't help but look at Xie Nanzhi.

Wen Ning had only looked at her from a distance before, and knew that she was dignified and graceful, and expected that her facial features should be extremely beautiful, but seeing her at such a close distance, she was still taken aback.

Exactly as she imagined.

Wen Ning glanced at the phoenix couch, there was no chair in front of her, she came in from the outside, she was covered with some rain and snow, how dare she sit on the bed directly, she walked to the footrest under the bed and sat down naturally.

After arranging Linglan, Wen Ning straightened her back and prepared to enter the palace.

"Is he so good at lectures?"

She lowered her head and followed the nanny, seeing her leading her to a bed, she knew that this was the Feng bed.

She was barefoot, her complexion had returned to normal, and she walked up to Wen Ning, who was exactly half a head taller than her.

Wen Ning looked at Xie Nanzhi's plain white hands, opened the box, took out the sachet with the flying phoenix jade card hanging from it, bent slightly, and leaned over.

Wuwu, the empress actually gave her a sachet herself!
The empress's body smells so good, the smell of medicine is so good!

Sang Liu is an old man who has been with Xie Nanzhi for decades, she knew what she was going to do with her eyes and movements, and immediately took the box containing the pair of sachets just now.

For some reason, Wen Ning felt very nervous, even more nervous than the last time she met Emperor Jiahe.

Xie Nanzhi probably didn't think it was a problem, and asked with a smile: "Then how do you coax him?"

"Ah Ning can't ask for it."

On the red brocade cloth of the tray, there is a pair of delicate sachets.A lovebird was embroidered on each of the two sachets, and white jade with a dragon and a phoenix hung underneath.

The things are actually nothing unusual, nor are they expensive, but Wen Ning is a person who is well versed in embroidery.She has seen the clothes from the inner court, this sachet is exquisitely embroidered, with a lot of thought, she can tell at a glance that it is not the handicraft of the inner court embroiderer.

Sang Liu said again: "Niang Niang, the banquet ahead should end."

No problem at all!
Maybe it's because she doesn't have a mother, but Wen Ning has always had no resistance to such a beautiful and gentle woman, so she happily talked about some anecdotes in the south of the Yangtze River.

She was wearing a simple plain robe, and her hair was extremely simple. She didn't feel it when she was sitting on the couch, but when she stood up, she looked extremely elegant.

Wen Ning coughed lowly, withdrew her slightly unscrupulous eyes, and said softly: "The Empress is a celestial figure, Ah Ning is disrespectful, the empress is not to blame."

As soon as she entered the palace, the two of them closed the palace door, as if they were cut off from the wind, snow and loneliness outside, leaving only the warmth from Fengyi Palace.

"Ma'am." Sang Liu, who had been standing by the side, returned to Wen Ning's thoughts, and she knelt towards her expressionlessly, "It's getting late, your mother is tired, madam, please go back first."

But in fact, judging from the various rumors she heard about the empress, the empress should be a very good person.

As she got up, the nun who had just led her in came over and took off the cloak on her shoulders.

Xie Nanzhi was stunned suddenly: "Does he actually like sweets?"

In winter, a piece of snow-white fox fur is laid on the footsteps as a carpet.

"Wait." Xie Nanzhi called her to stop.

"Yeah! You don't know. I was also confused at the time. I heard him compare those wines with my Fushengzui wines, and he said that other people's wines are better than mine. I'm not convinced. In the end, he was so drunk that he didn't even remember what the fireworks looked like that night! He has a lot of twists and turns in his heart, he is not as gentle as the surface, and he must want to take me back to the official post early while I am drunk! "

Her girl is just too kind, and she still misses her at this time.

"It's really Huiqiao's child, no wonder it's called..." Xie Nanzhi paused for a moment, then reached out to stroke Wen Ning's water-stained hair, "Pei Shizi loves it so much."

Wen Ning was also taken aback.

Wen Ning began to count Pei You's shortcomings: "He has a big temper, and his heart is as small as the tip of a needle. A small matter can make you angry for half a month. You need someone to coax him in different ways."

It turned out...was it the empress herself who embroidered it?
Dragging the sick body to embroider sachets for them, what can she do? !

"This child, why do you need to be so generous." A slightly hoarse voice came from the bed, coughed a few times, and said again, "Come here and sit down, let me take a good look at you."

Even Concubine Xian called herself "My Palace", but the empress was so unassuming, calling "I" to her, Wen Ning couldn't help but relax a lot, and her back was not so stiff when she got up.

Wen Ning hurriedly stood up from the phoenix couch, and made a small gift: "Ah Ning is interrupting, the empress is good to rest, and Ah Ning will leave first."

When Wen Ning turned her head, she saw that she had got up from the couch, and Sang Liu went to help her, but she gently pushed her away.

She only knew that Pei You liked to eat candied haws, but later found out that he liked to eat the sugar coating on the outside, didn't he just love candy?
As for why...

Hey, there is also a small mole on the side of the empress's nasal bone.

It is lighter and lighter than Pei You's, if she hadn't applied makeup and was so close to her, she could hardly see it.

"Okay." Without waiting for Wen Ning to look more carefully, Xie Nanzhi had already stood up, the smile reappeared on her face, and she pampered Wen Ning's head, "Good boy, wait until I feel better, How about sending you into the palace to talk with me?"

Wen Ning blinked, nodded heavily, saluted again, and left Fengyi Palace excitedly.
