"I think it's very good!" Lu Chuyi just took a small sip, but she couldn't even taste what the tea tasted like. Now she could only bite the bullet and go through with it.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were on her.

"Is Concubine Lu worried about something? Why do you seem absent-minded and don't look very well? What's wrong?" Zheng Xiyan asked with concern. Her expression paused, but soon returned to normal.

"Your servant... thank you for your concern, Your Majesty Dowager. Perhaps it is because I did not sleep well last night. Your Majesty Dowager, please do not worry about me!" Lu Chuyi forced herself to calm down and responded calmly.

Zheng Xiyan showed a look of understanding on her face, and replied with a smile: "That's good. If you feel uncomfortable, you must ask the imperial physician to see you."

"Yes, thank you very much, Your Majesty the Queen Mother." Lu Chuyi bowed slightly and replied calmly.

Zheng Xiyan was busy summoning ladies from both the inner and outer courts for the entire morning without a moment's rest. Near noon, everyone dispersed, leaving only Princess Chengyang.

"Mother, please stay and have dinner with your daughter!" Zheng Xiyan said with a smile.

"Okay." Princess Chengyang also wanted to stay with her daughter for a while longer. Finally, the mother and daughter could have a private conversation.

When Xiao Chengji knew that his grandmother stayed in the Weiyang Palace, he sent someone to tell Xiao Shuyue to go to the Zichen Hall for lunch, and the three siblings would have lunch together.

Dining room

"Mother, please sit down!" Zheng Xiyan said in a gentle voice, holding Princess Chengyang's arm.

"Okay, Madam, please sit down too!" Princess Chengyang was happy and distressed to see that her daughter had finally gotten her happy ending. "Yan'er, you have suffered a lot over the years."

Hearing this, Zheng Xiyan's heart trembled slightly, a wave of sadness surged in her heart, she smiled bitterly and shook her head and said: "All the grievances and sufferings I suffered before are now worth it."

"Yes, it's all over. There will be good days in the future." Princess Chengyang held her hand tightly, and her emotions became a little excited.

"What mother said is true. From now on, mother does not have to worry about anything. Just come to the palace more often to accompany your daughter." Zheng Xiyan acted like a little child, acting coquettishly in front of Princess Changyang. Only in front of her mother could she let down her guard and be herself at ease.

"Okay, mother will come to the palace more often and visit you more often." Princess Chengyang nodded in agreement without hesitation.

"Ah."

After dinner, Zheng Xiyan dismissed the palace maids. She leaned on Princess Chengyang's shoulder, gently closed her eyes, and her face looked very relaxed and contented.

"Yan'er, have you been out of the palace and to Lu's house before? You are..." asked Princess Chengyang.

Zheng Xiyan did not open her eyes, and said calmly: "Mother is right. I think Lu Xuan's eldest daughter is a good candidate for Ji'er's future queen."

"The Lu family of Fanyang is a famous and prestigious family with a history of hundreds of years. The disciples of the family have always been promising. Even among the side branches, there are many who serve as officials. If Your Majesty can marry a woman from the Lu family of Fanyang as queen, it will definitely be an extra help. However, the Lu family of Fanyang has never married into the royal family. I am afraid that this move may be..." Princess Chengyang said with some concern.

"Of course my daughter knows all this, but now I have a solution, so don't worry, mother." Zheng Xiyan raised her eyebrows slightly and a sly smile appeared on her face.

It was also at this moment that Zheng Xiyan suddenly felt that she seemed very despicable. She had gone to great lengths to marry Ji'er a woman from the Fanyang Lu family. What was the difference between this and Xiao Xuanchen's plan to marry her back then?

The expression on Zheng Xiyan's face froze and her mood became very heavy. How was her behavior different from what Xiao Xuanchen did back then?

Princess Chengyang noticed that something was wrong with her expression and asked softly, "Yan'er, what's wrong?"

"Mother, I..." Zheng Xiyan was a little confused now. She didn't know what to do. Lu Lingyuan had already arranged to marry Cui Zhaoling. If she really wanted to do that, wouldn't it be...

"What happened?" Princess Chengyang asked anxiously.

Zheng Xiyan frowned and looked at her, forcing herself to calm down. She shook her head and said, "It's okay, my daughter is fine. I just thought of some things. They are all unimportant. Don't worry, mother."

"Really?" Princess Chengyang frowned, looking worried.

"Really, my daughter is really fine!" Zheng Xiyan leaned on her shoulder again, but the expression on her face became heavier.

"it is good."
