Rebirth of the legitimate daughter: the daily life of His Majesty the Emperor’s beloved concubine

"Why don't you ask the Emperor to accompany you, girl? It will be easier for the girl to greet the Queen Mother if the Emperor is with you."

Su Ning'an smiled lightly, "What is the Queen Mother's attitude towards me? If I really ask the Emperor to accompany me, it will delay the Emperor's discussions and make the Queen Mother unhappy. Not to mention, the Emperor will think that I have suffered so much grievance from the Queen Mother, so I am looking for the Emperor's support." What? Then wouldn’t my efforts yesterday be in vain?”

Perhaps the Imperial Master approved her fate yesterday, removing the shadow that had haunted her for so many years. Today, Su Ningan's face is clearer and more confident, "Ying'er, do you think this is true?"

Ying'er smiled and nodded, "That's exactly what the girl said. The Emperor has no disagreement with the Queen Mother because of the girl. The Queen Mother will only remember the good things about the girl."

Ying'er originally came from the palace, but because Su Ning'an arrived at the mansion, she was transferred out of the palace to serve. These twists and turns in the harem are naturally more familiar than Cuizhu, but I have to admire Suning'an's thoughtfulness.

Suning'an smiled proudly, and the three masters and servants chatted and laughed and quickly arrived at Guang'an Temple.

When the monk guarding the door saw that it was Suningan, he did not dare to stop him. He clasped his hands and performed a Buddhist salute. Su Ningan and others naturally returned the salute, and then walked to the Queen Mother.

I planned that this would be the time when the Queen Mother had finished washing herself and had breakfast, so I would like to say goodbye. Unexpectedly, Nanny Ying told them that the Queen Mother was worshiping the Buddha and asked them to wait.

Suningan just responded in a low voice and waited in the courtyard very meekly for more than an hour.

In the Buddhist hall, the tapping sound of wooden fish was slow but uninterrupted. The Queen Mother turned over a page of the scripture and then said slowly: "Is Suning'an impatient?"

"The slave doesn't seem to have any. He has been waiting outside. His posture is upright, unlike other masters in the palace."

If it were the concubines in the palace, except for the queen, they would wait for more than an hour, holding on to their waists or moving their legs and feet. Some of their tensed faces still showed dissatisfaction, but naturally they did not dare to take it seriously. In front of the Queen Mother.

After hearing this, the Queen Mother's face softened slightly, and she helped Grandma Ying out of the Buddhist hall, "Tell her to come in."

This time the Queen Mother did not ask her to kneel all the time, but still asked her to stand aside.

After looking at Suning'an, he really looked meek, and then said: "The emperor clearly took all the responsibility on himself, why didn't you just follow what the emperor said?"

Suning felt happy, lowered her eyebrows and closed her eyes, "I dare not deceive the Queen Mother, and I don't think I can hide anything in this world from you."

Pursing her lips, she continued: "My daughter did have some thoughts about the emperor three years ago. To be honest with what the Empress Dowager said, when she met the emperor three years later, my daughter did not know the emperor's identity. I just want to use the emperor's influence to get the ashes of my mother and brother back. But the emperor treats my daughter very well. Except for my mother, no one has treated me so well. My daughter also really wants to be by the emperor's side. I don’t want to lie today to satisfy the Queen Mother and make her displeased in the future. If the Queen Mother and the Emperor are at odds because of this, then Ning An will be blamed for his death. "

The Queen Mother stared at Suning'an. She had not let go of her expression just now. Naturally, she knew that she was not lying, and her face looked better than before.

He picked up the tea cup and gently played with the tea leaves with the lid, "If the Ai family still cares, do they want you to leave the emperor?"

Su Ning'an knelt down and kowtowed, "I will listen to the Queen Mother's arrangements. It's just..." He boldly glanced at the Queen Mother, and saw that the Queen Mother looked like she was watching a show, and her face became more sincere, "It's just that I'm the Queen Mother." If you are a woman who cannot serve the Emperor, please handle it properly, the Queen Mother, so as not to... hurt the Emperor's heart, or hurt the mother-son relationship between you and the Emperor."

The Queen Mother glanced at Aunt Ying, who hurriedly stepped forward to help Suningan up, "Look at the girl answering so seriously. The Queen Mother has always loved to play with ladies, just to tease girls. In the future, the girl will enter the palace. , if you greet her a few more times, you will know the Queen Mother’s temperament.”

"Yes." Who doesn't know that Grandma Ying is trying to smooth things over? Su Ning'an still had a respectful look on her face, not daring to relax even a little bit because of what Grandma Ying said.

"Since the emperor likes you, you will be easy to serve. The emperor is worried about state affairs all day long. You can make him happy by staying with the emperor, and you can bloom for the royal family. This is your blessing, and the royal family will naturally not treat you badly."

"Yes, I know."

The Queen Mother looked at Su Ning'an with a certain disdain, said something casually, and let her go back.

During lunch, the Emperor came to the Queen Mother's house and said that he had not seen her yesterday and had come to eat with her today.

The Queen Mother was naturally happy to have a meal with her son.

Although she can only use some vegetarian food now, the Queen Mother's meals are exquisite. What's more, when the Emperor comes here, the royal chefs who come with the Queen Mother naturally use all kinds of martial arts.

"How is Yucairen these days? I heard that she is pregnant. How is the child?"

"The fetus of Yucai Ren is unstable. My son told her to have a good pregnancy and raise the fetus. There is also an imperial doctor taking care of her, so the mother is at ease." Shen Yan picked up a chopstick of winter bamboo shoots and put it on the Queen Mother's plate. She did not want to talk about Yucai Ren, but said: "Su Ning'an has never learned palace etiquette. She must have offended the queen yesterday. My son would like to thank the queen for her consideration and tolerance yesterday."

The Queen Mother paused and looked at the Emperor with confusion.

But the emperor smiled, as if talking about family matters, without any dissatisfaction or suggestion in his words.

"Yesterday, Suning'an came back from her mother's place happily. She said that her mother took good care of her. Although she gave her admonitions, it was just like her mother's previous teachings. She was very grateful. Today, I wanted to come together to pay my respects to my mother, but was interrupted. She declined, saying that even though I was here, I couldn't talk to my mother properly, so I would like to thank my mother for being very tolerant and caring for her."

As Shen Yanzui said this, he took another chopstick and gave it to the Queen Mother, "The Queen Mother is able to do this because of her son, who understands."

This compliment made the Queen Mother feel a little ashamed. Unexpectedly, Su Ning'an not only didn't complain a word yesterday, but actually said a lot of nice things, which seemed like she was too harsh on her.

"Thank you. The emperor is the son of the Ai family. The Ai family naturally hopes to have someone who likes to accompany the emperor. Since the emperor likes Su Ning'an so much, let her enter the palace as soon as possible to accompany you. You can also be happy."

Seeing the changes in the Queen Mother's face, Shen Yanzui relaxed in her words and smiled in her heart, but her face was still respectful and filial, "I know, son. The Queen is always thinking of you, and she asked me to stay with you more before I left. Accompany you."

The Queen Mother glanced at the Emperor and shook her head, "The Queen is a good child, but it's a pity for you..."

Alas, who has never been young? How can this emotional thing be forced upon?

So I didn’t mention it again.

Shen Yanzhuo talked to the Queen Mother about other matters in the harem. Mother and son had lunch and drank tea. The emperor was in a good mood today and walked around Guang'an Temple with the Queen Mother before leaving.

However, after this incident, the Queen Mother had a better impression of Suning'an.

A few days later, it would be the day of worshiping the heaven. On this day, Suningan and Ana Shen got up very early.

Although she had nothing to do with Ji Tian, ​​she still got up early and helped Shen Yanzhui change and freshen up.

"You can sleep for a while after I leave. The Queen Mother also said that you often accompany her these days, so I won't ask you to say hello today." Shen Yanzui said, pinching Suningan's still sleepy face, "Wait for me Come back and have lunch with me, okay?"

"Yes." Su Ning'an nodded, "But if I am still awake when the emperor comes back, the emperor will not laugh at you."

Ana Shen pulled her into his arms out of habit, lowered his head and kissed her forehead, "From now on, I have to call her 'concubine'."

Suningan's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, "Concubine?" But only those above the fourth rank can be called concubines?

Shen Yanzhuo looked at Suningan looking at him blankly and shook his head. If it had been anyone else, he would have thanked her a long time ago. Who is like her...

He tightened his arms, deepened the hug, and then left with the person.

Suning'an was still in shock and had not recovered.
