Concubine of the Prime Minister

Chapter 118 Questioning the Queen Mother and Getting Beaten (1)
In fact, Zhenxihou knew in his heart that it was almost impossible for his granddaughter to marry Long Yuqing, and the queen mother would never let go. It is a request, but this matter is of great importance. No matter how much the Queen Mother loves her, she will never allow her to do whatever she wants.

But how should he tell his granddaughter?There are some things that must never be told to her now... Oh, evil fate!

When Su Nishang heard that Zhenxihou was relieved, she immediately burst into tears and laughed, and kept begging coquettishly: "Then grandpa, please take me into the palace quickly, I will ask my aunt, you will help me play the drums next to me, I will definitely succeed of!"

Zhenxihou nodded silently. Seeing his granddaughter like this, he really couldn't bear to hit her. He only hoped that a miracle would happen and her dream would come true.

Cining Palace

"Queen, Zhenxihou and Miss Nishang are here."

"Hurry up!" There was a hint of joyful eagerness in the majestic voice.

"Yes."

"The old minister pays homage to the Empress Dowager!"

"Nishang pays homage to the queen mother's aunt!"

"Get up and watch the seats! Nishang girl, come here, let my aunt take a good look, tsk tsk, our Nishang is really getting more and more beautiful."

"Thank you, Empress Dowager!"

On the luxurious phoenix chair, a noble woman dressed in a luxurious phoenix robe is looking at Su Nishang lovingly, and her sharp eyes are also full of deep love at this time.

Empress Dowager Su is in her early fifties, but because of her excellent maintenance, she still looks like a middle-aged woman in her forties.The exquisite facial features revealed a hint of the charm of a mature woman. It is not difficult to see that she must have been an all-powerful beauty when she was young.It's just that she is over half a hundred years old, and the beauty is already old. No matter how well she maintains herself on weekdays, she can't bear the baptism of the years, and the slightest wrinkles have already climbed up her delicate face.

Maybe looking at her now, she really looks like a loving elder, but in fact, the whole capital knows that the Queen Mother is notoriously iron-blooded and strict.When she was young, she used thunderous methods to firmly sit on the highest throne in the harem, and even assisted the late emperor behind the scenes with her intelligence, agility and iron-blooded skills, to consolidate the throne for him and win over courtiers.To this day, her wrist is still the same as before, even better than in the past, known as the Jagged Lady!

And such a woman, but she treats Su Nishang brothers and sisters with special respect and dotes on her so much. She is even more honored and favored than the three princes and one princess of the royal family, which is really shocking.

This is exactly what Su Nishang is proud of!
"The Empress Dowager's aunt is the one who is as heavenly as she was back then. Those who didn't know thought you were only in your early thirties!" Su Nishang smiled and walked towards the Empress Dowager, looking at her sincerely with admiration in her eyes, exaggerating to please her It doesn't seem like a fake either.

"Hehe, you're the only girl with a sweet mouth!" Tai Hou really smiled brighter, moved her butt to the side, took Su Nishang's hand and let her sit next to her, when she saw her slightly red eyes At that time, the queen mother's face immediately darkened, and she said angrily: "What's the matter, girl? Whoever bullied you, tell my aunt!"

Su Nishang gave the Queen Mother a grievous look, opened her mouth to speak but stopped, and finally sat down with her head down and did not speak.

Seeing this, the Empress Dowager turned her gaze to Zhen Xihou, with questioning and anger evident in her eyes.

Zhen Xihou's eyes flashed, he glanced around calmly, the queen mother understood, and said majesticly: "You all go down, no one is allowed to come in without the order of Aijia!"

"Yes, Empress Dowager!"

All the maids and eunuchs retreated respectfully under the leadership of the nanny in charge, and the queen mother immediately asked in a deep voice: "Tell me, who is so bold to bully Aijia's neon clothes and cry?"

Zhen Xihou's mouth also opened and closed, he just didn't know how to say it.Could it be that the granddaughter is so sad because of a man who competes with other women for the sake of being jealous?It has not been a day or two since the Queen Mother has not allowed her to communicate with King Qing, so where should he start?

Su Nishang hung her head and couldn't hear her grandfather's words for a long while, so she couldn't help feeling a little anxious, raised her head slightly and looked at him with tears in her eyes, her eyes were full of pleading.

Zhen Xihou's heart ached, he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "As for the Empress Dowager, Nishang was not bullied by anyone, it's just that my daughter's family had some minor conflicts."

What Zhenxihou said was very ingenious, first he denied that she had been bullied, and then he said that there was some minor conflict between her daughter's family.However, if there are some trivial conflicts that are not worth mentioning, why cry bitterly?His answer in this way aroused the empress dowager's thirst for knowledge even more. What was it that made it difficult for him to speak?
Sure enough, the Empress Dowager looked puzzled, and said in a deep voice: "What happened? Who in the entire capital doesn't know that Nishang is the heart of the Ai family, and if you dare to bully Nishang, you are not embarrassing the Ai family!"

On the side, Su Nishang's eyes flashed a smug light, and his face was full of arrogance.

Zhenxihou's sharp eagle eyes also flashed a strange light, looking at Su Nishang's reddish eye sockets and lonely expression, he couldn't help sighing, and said: "The Queen Mother should have heard about it, the Zuo Xiang family's Second Miss Wu Mengdie suddenly regained her senses some time ago."

"Well, this story has spread all over the city. Even if the Ai family doesn't want to know, it's hard!" The queen mother hooked her red lips, and smiled with some meaning, "I heard that Wu Mengdie has been stupid for ten years, and even the imperial physician in the palace It was said that there was no cure, but she suddenly woke up by herself, which is really strange."

Zhen Xihou was silent. The queen mother obviously heard the rumors outside, but she didn't know what she was thinking.But what he can be sure of is that the queen mother has always believed in ghosts and gods the most, even more than ordinary people, so she must have her own plans for this matter.What he should know, the queen mother will naturally say, even if his relationship with the queen mother is unusual, he must not be careless. The so-called emperor's heart is unpredictable, and the queen mother's mind is no less than that of the unpredictable king!

Sure enough, the Empress Dowager smiled, and asked lightly, "What do you think of the rumors from the outside world?"

"There is nothing wrong with it, Wu Mengdie is indeed weird. It may not be worth mentioning that she suddenly changed from stupid to normal, but she has been stupid for ten years. It stands to reason that she should be ignorant of this world. But she is so talented that it is unbelievable! First, she shocked the world with a dance, and then shocked the world with a song, and even His Highness King Qing gave her the highest evaluation-this song should only exist in the sky, how can there be much in the world? Back to the news! But the most shocking thing is that she didn't know how to play the piano before, she just learned and sold it on the spot, and even the lyrics and music were improvised! If this woman is not weird, no one will believe it Yes, there are many intelligent people in the world, but such a shocking one is unheard of."
