The Stratagem of the Concubine of the Cold King

Chapter 154
After Xi Zhuqin tied up the Queen Mother's bun, she took a few hairpins and inserted them between the Queen Mother's buns. After her careful dressing, the Queen Mother was indeed a little younger than usual.

As the most honorable woman in a country, the Empress Dowager must also hope to remain young forever. Looking at her appearance in the bronze mirror, she felt very happy in her heart: "Qin'er is not only talented and beautiful, but also unexpectedly The topknot is pulled so well."

Xi Zhuqin put down the glazed comb in his hand, and smiled coquettishly at the queen mother: "This is not due to Qin'er's hair-dosing, the queen mother is very beautiful, even if Qin'er pulls your hair well, it's just icing on the cake That's all."

After Xi Zhuqin waited for the Queen Mother to put her hair in a bun, the Queen Mother played Xi Zhuqin and wandered around in the Royal Garden. From the Anning Palace to the Royal Garden, the Queen Mother was all smiling all the way. It can be seen that Xi Zhuqin has coaxed the Queen Mother very much recently. How happy, the queen mother also regards her as the treasure in her palm, and she loves Xi Zhuqin even more than the real royal princess.

After the two admired the flowers for a while, Xi Zhuqin served the queen mother to rest in a pavilion in the imperial garden.

"Empress Dowager, An Ning has something to ask you." After the Empress Dowager rested for a while, Xi Zhuqin suddenly stood up and knelt in front of her.

Seeing Xi Zhuqin kneeling on the ground, the queen mother was about to reach out to help her up: "Qin'er has something to ask Aijia, first get up and talk to Aijia slowly."

Xi Zhuqin was still kneeling on the ground, with her head lowered slightly: "If the Queen Mother does not promise An Ning, An Ning will not get up."

"Qin'er, let's talk to Ai's family." The queen mother had no choice but to let her kneel on the ground and talk.

After the queen mother agreed, Xi Zhuqin raised her head. When she raised her head, she showed a bit of pain on her face, and she said pitifully: "The empress dowager, An Ning's life was originally saved by you, the empress dowager. I should have been by your side at all times, but An Ning came from the Marquis of An Guo. A few months ago, An Ning's biological mother was poisoned to death by a maid. .”

Xi Zhuqin burst into tears with what she said, and the queen mother was deeply moved. She stood up again and helped Xi Zhuqin up. This time, Xi Zhuqin did not resist anymore, and stood up with the support of the queen mother.

"Qin'er, this is a trivial matter. You are doing this out of filial piety as a child. How could the Ai family not agree to you? You can go back to the Anguohou Mansion tomorrow." By piano way.

After hearing this, Xi Zhuqin immediately had a look of joy on his face: "Qin'er thanked the empress dowager."

On the second day, surrounded by a group of palace people, Xi Zhuqin returned to An Guohou's mansion with the help of the princess.

Xi Bojian knew early on that Xi Zhuqin was returning to the mansion today, so he had summoned all the people from Anguohou's mansion to wait at the gate of the Hou's mansion.

Xi Zhuqin's Fengjia drove slowly towards An Guohou's mansion. After Fengjia stopped, with the help of the maid, Xizhuqin got out of the car in a luxurious suit.

Stepping on palace shoes, Xi Zhuqin walked towards Xi Bojian step by step.

Seeing Xi Zhuqin approaching, Xi Bojian was very worried, fearing that Xi Zhuqin would still remember the fact that he sent her to Qingyun Nunnery.

"See Princess An Ning, the princess is a thousand years old." Before Xi Zhuqin approached him, Xi Bojian took the lead, and everyone in An Guohou's mansion knelt on the ground to bow down to Xizhuqin Shop.

Xi Wanqing silently hid in the crowd, now that Xi Zhuqin was returning home as a royal princess, the situation forced her to follow the crowd to give Xi Zhuqin this great gift.

Xi Zhuqin stopped in front of Xi Bojian, she glanced down at Xi Bojian, her face was expressionless, and she said indifferently: "Is father trying to torture his daughter? Please get down quickly."

While Xi Zhuqin was speaking, she stretched out her hands, pretending to help Xi Bojian up.

Xi Bojian knelt on the ground, and his daughter, who he once regarded as an abandoned son, has now turned into a royal princess. He only felt that his scalp was numb at this moment, and he was a little frightened. Seeing Xi Zhuqin stretching out his hand to help him, he got up in fear .

"The old minister would like to thank Princess Long En."

As Xi Bojian stood up, everyone in An Guohou's mansion also stood up. Xi Wanqing had no sense of Xi Zhuqin's transformation into a princess, while Xi Zhuyan, San Yiniang, and Xi Zhuhua But the heart is very uncomfortable.

Especially Xi Zhuyan is the most jealous. In the past, she was more noble than Xi Zhuqin, but now she is suppressed by Xi Zhuqin by some degree, and she is suffocated in her heart, but she dare not vent it.

Third aunt, Xi Zhuhua was worried that Xi Zhuqin would return to the Hou Mansion and compete with them for the power of the Hou Mansion.

"Princess, please." After Xi Bojian got up, he bent slightly to ask, and respectfully invited Xi Zhuqin into the gate of Hou Mansion.

Xi Zhuqin walked in the front, Xi Bojian accompanied her, and behind them followed a group of people from An Guohou's residence, as well as some court ladies and eunuchs.

Xi Bojian invited Xi Zhuqin into the main hall of the bamboo courtyard. Xi Bojian and Xi Zhuqin sat on the main seat. Wan Qing's position is the farthest from the main seat. She has been unknown since she entered the hall of the Bamboo Courtyard, and it is the easiest for people to ignore her existence.

After everyone was seated, a servant girl came to serve some pastries and tea.

Xi Zhuqin picked up a cup of fragrant tea, sniffed it elegantly on the tip of her nose, and then said to Xi Bojian with a smile that was not a smile: "Father, although the emperor has already made me Princess Anning, I'm afraid I will be with you in the days to come." With the Empress Dowager around, I shouldn't have to worry about the big and small matters of the Hou's mansion, but my father is not young anymore, and my mother passed away again. The whole of the Hou's mansion is run by the third aunt alone, so I am very worried about the three My aunt will be exhausted, so I suggest that father should quickly confirm the position of son, so as to avoid any further troubles, father, what do you think?"

Xi Zhuqin's words on the sidelines have been very clear, and there is a bit of coercive pressure in the tone. Now there is only Xiyuntian in the Anguohou's mansion. Everyone knows that Xi Zhuqin is implying that Xi Bo Jian established Xi Yuntian as the eldest son of the Marquis of An Guo.

How could Xi Bojian fail to understand the meaning of Xi Zhuqin's words? He punished Xi Zhuqin to Qingyun Nunnery a few days ago, and broke the tendons in the hands and feet of his second aunt. Now that Xi Zhuqin is a princess, he is deeply afraid Xi Zhuqin will hold grudges and deny him as his father. Now that Xi Zhuqin has stopped talking about the past, he is a little relieved. One or two.

"The princess reminded me that the veteran also thinks it's time for Yuntian to inherit the title of Marquis of An Guo." Xi Bojian said to Xi Zhuqin with a smile on his face.

Xi Zhuqin saw that Xi Bojian had understood the meaning of her words, she was very satisfied, and replied with a smile: "Yeah."

The third aunt heard that Xi Bojian would make Xiyuntian his son, and she felt very resentful. She originally planned that the eldest lady and the second aunt would fall, and Xiyuntian was stationed outside the army all the year round, so she couldn't always pay attention to the movements of the Hou Mansion. Taking charge of the power of the family, as long as she seizes the time to win Xi Bojian's favor, she will be able to successfully inherit the title of the Marquis of An Guo after giving birth to a boy. Unexpectedly, Xi Zhuqin was the only one that she missed in all her calculations.
