Chapter 652 Seeing the Queen Mother

By the time Han Yi packed up everything, Xiao Yihan was already waiting in the front hall.

Seeing her coming, he waved his hand and let all the servants leave.

"Today, follow me into the palace and meet the queen mother."

Han Yi nodded: "OK."

Xiao Yihan glanced at her and walked out, Han Yi followed without haste.

Zhang Lin was guarding the carriage outside the door.Seeing Han Yi coming with Xiao Yihan, she raised her eyebrows and smiled: "I've seen the princess."

Han Yi frowned uncomfortably, feeling that this person was very rude, even winking at her in front of King Qi.

Zhang Lin noticed that Han Yi's attitude was a bit inexplicable, so he couldn't help but glance at Xiao Yihan, but Xiao Yihan didn't say anything, just said: "Let's go."

Zhang Lin thought that the two had quarreled, so he had no choice but to stop asking, and walked with the two to the direction of Nanqingmen.

Passing through the Nanqing Gate all the way, the eunuchs and maids led the way into the Queen Mother's Fengqi Palace. Gong Lixi was drinking tea and did not lift her head when they came in.

Xiao Yihan and Han Yi saluted according to the rules: "The Empress Dowager is a thousand years old."

Gong Lixi put down the teacup slowly, turned her gaze to the two of them, and couldn't help squinting, the more she looked at it, the more glaring it was.

She only met Han Yi once, and even that time, she had a very bad impression. She always thought that Han Yi was born as a businesswoman, didn't know the rules, and didn't follow the etiquette. Miss Zhifu comes from a famous family, and a country girl is always inferior to a lady from the big family.

Xiao Yihan was really famous all his life, but his good eyes were blinded in vain.

"Get up."

Xiao Yihan reached out to help Han Yi, but Han Yi flinched subconsciously.

This action naturally caught Gong Lixi's eyes, and she couldn't help feeling puzzled.

Gong Lixi smiled at Han Yi and said, "Princess Qi is such a beautiful girl, no wonder she is so doted on by King Qi, and she wants to marry her home against all odds."

Han Yi leaned over slightly: "The Empress Dowager is too proud."

Gong Lixi beckoned, "Come over here, and talk to Ai's family about yourself."

Han Yi walked over and sat down beside her.

Xiao Yihan frowned slightly.

Gong Lixi said: "King Qi, the emperor is waiting for you in the study, you go first, the bride will stay here at Ai's house, and she will not be lost."

Xiao Yihan glanced at Han Yi, but Han Yi didn't look at her, still with a low eyebrow and a very polite look.

He nodded towards Gong Lixi: "I'll pick her up later."

Then he left Fengqi Palace.

As soon as Xiao Yihan left, Gong Lixi's smile gradually disappeared.

"Are you really from a merchant? Then how did you meet King Qi?" she asked.

She didn't know anything about the process of meeting Han Yi and Xiao Yihan, and naturally she couldn't answer Gong Lixi's words, so she said: "I am indeed from a merchant family, so I dare not lie to the Queen Mother."

The tone of this speech is completely different from the Han Yi back then. Gong Lixi was a little surprised, thinking that she should have become a princess and learned the rules.

She took off a dark green jadeite bracelet from her wrist and brought it to Han Yi's wrist.

"This is a reward from the Ai family."

Han Yi stood up and bowed: "Thank you, Empress Dowager."

Gong Lixi was even more puzzled, so she tentatively said: "Being Master Zhou's granddaughter, you can also be regarded as my sister, so you don't have to be so restrained."

Han Yi was still rigid and did not let go of her emotions.

"Yes."

Gong Lixi thought for a while, and said: "The exam will be held soon, I heard that Young Master Yang's books are good, so he must have a great chance."
