But even in the face of the Queen Mother, Prince An still didn't say much. He often heard the Queen Mother complaining, saying who did Prince An follow, who now behaves like a saw-mouthed gourd who doesn't like to speak? Obviously when I was a child, I was called a sweet-mouthed person.
Chang Xi knew very well that Prince An became what he was now because of the incident seventeen years ago, but he couldn't tell it. In fact, the Queen Mother also knew this in her heart.
But what Chang Xi didn't expect was that Prince An, who rarely spoke in the past few days, and even when he did speak, he spoke very concisely, today would not only take the initiative to speak, but also patiently explain to others!
And all these exceptions, all these specialities, are all because of Princess An! This Princess An was not favored, but was forced into Prince An's Mansion for many reasons!
Chang Xi couldn't help but secretly observe this beautiful woman. What kind of person was she? Could it actually bring about such an astonishing change in Prince An?
He clearly remembered that on the second day after this daughter of the Xia family married into Prince An's palace, Prince An didn't even want to take anyone with him when he entered the palace to thank the Queen Mother. Her disgust.
But what about now?
Prince An was not only extra patient with her, but his tone also revealed a gentleness that he had never seen in anyone other than the Queen Mother, and there was no trace of disgust in his eyes.
Chang Xi observed the whole process and couldn't figure it out, but he knew that this matter must be reported to the Queen Mother. This is no small matter!
We walked all the way to Cining Palace, with Chang Xi personally leading us. We easily reached the outside of the main hall. While we were waiting for the announcement, we could faintly hear women talking and laughing from inside the hall.
Xia Luotong's senses were sharp and he immediately caught the voices, which seemed a bit familiar. However, he could not hear clearly due to the obstruction of the building and did not dare to make a judgment.
While thinking about it, he had received the summons from the Queen Mother and entered the palace together with Wu Zechen beside him.
The palace is grand and luxurious, but it looks a little deserted. There are not many palace people waiting on it. I think they have been kicked out. At this time, in addition to the two maids waiting on the side, there are the queen mother and another A girl in boudoir dress.
The Queen Mother is graceful and regal. Although she is over sixty years old, she looks like she is in her early fifties due to proper maintenance. She does not look old at all.
Her noble temperament, and the fierceness of strategy that could not be concealed under her kind face, all showed that the woman in front of her was the most noble woman in the Zhou Dynasty.
Compared with the powerful aura of the Queen Mother, the girl in pink skirt sitting next to her is as gentle as water.
But at this time, when the girl in pink skirt saw Xia Luotong walking slowly, she showed an expression of shock, her eyes were filled with incredible sluggishness, and she froze in place as if she had been fixed. It was as if he had forgotten how to move.
Sure enough it was her...
Xia Luotong had a smile on her lips and did not say anything in a hurry. Instead, she approached slowly in response to the Queen Mother's gaze, and then bowed politely.
She was not idle during these days. She took Zhuxuan to learn all kinds of etiquette. Since she planned to walk in this circle in the next period of time, she didn't know any of the things she should learn and pay attention to. fall.
At the same time, the Queen Mother in the seat was also looking at Xia Luotong carefully. She was extremely dissatisfied with this marriage.
When the emperor decided on the marriage without consulting her at that time, she was really angry. She refused to see him for several days and even blocked him outside the main hall.
As for the queen who first proposed this idea, she was not allowed to enter the Cining Palace for a month. Every morning and dusk, when greeting each other, the concubines from all the palaces entered the palace, but the queen was the only one who was stopped outside the palace. Not to mention the humiliation of the Queen, the Queen Mother has not given the Queen a good look so far.
However, in such a marriage, there was an unexpected change in the end.
The eldest daughter, who was almost abandoned by the Xia family, actually possesses such a superb ability to detoxify. Even Mu Dai, the master of Baihua Valley, was unable to deal with the poison of passing time, but it actually took a turn for the better in her hands.
Not only that, after successive investigations and observations, the Queen Mother discovered that the eldest daughter of the Xia family was obviously not as unbearable as the rumors said, and could even be said to be somewhat outstanding. I am afraid that even the person behind the marriage was behind the marriage. , and everyone in the Xia family never thought that the eldest daughter of the Xia family, who had been raised outside, would be such a person who should not be underestimated.
As much as the Queen Mother loves Prince An, her private investigations are as detailed as ever. Although it may not be as good as Prince An, she has also learned a lot about the situation, and now it has been greatly improved.
However, no matter how you understand it, it is not as intuitive as seeing it with your own eyes.
What the Queen Mother didn't expect was that the eldest daughter of the Xia family was so beautiful. Even though she was used to seeing all kinds of beauties, it was still inevitable when she first saw them. Feeling a little surprised.
but……
A flash of doubt flashed in the eyes of the Queen Mother. She always felt that there was something strange about the appearance of the daughter of the Xia family, as if she was different from the people of the Zhou Dynasty, but she couldn't tell what the problem was.
But regardless of her appearance, her calm and calm temperament makes people feel comfortable. It is completely different from the craftsmanship of most ladies from aristocratic families. With her unique unruly and free and easy aura, it just makes people feel His eyes lit up.
The Queen Mother even couldn't help but feel a little curious, why is Dudu, the eldest daughter who was almost abandoned and raised outside, so different? What kind of experiences created it?
The other daughters of the Xia family have all been met by the Queen Mother at the banquet. Although they have not yet reached the stage of photographic memory, they can generally be remembered. Except for the beauty of the Xia family, which has long been famous, there is nothing amazing about them. characteristics.
This eldest daughter of the Xia family is really not like anyone else in the Xia family. Apart from inheriting two or three points of appearance, she doesn't even look like her biological father Xia Zhihe in terms of temperament and impression.
After just such a brief observation, the Queen Mother was already somewhat satisfied. Seeing that her appearance was outstanding, every expression and movement was just right, making it impossible to find anything wrong, and her good impression was even more enhanced.
The Queen Mother knew that she had not received any education from Xia Mansion before, let alone all kinds of etiquette and rules, but to be able to behave like this now, it can be seen that she had learned and made up for it during the period after marrying into the royal family.
Satisfied, he naturally had a smile on his face. He waved to the two of them and asked them to stand up and sit near her: "This is the first time that the Ai family has seen the daughter-in-law of the Chen'er family. Come here and let the Ai family have a good look."
Hearing what the Queen Mother said, Wu Zechen's face suddenly flashed a very faint unnatural look, but seeing the satisfaction in the Queen Mother's eyes and the smile on her face, there was a hint of relaxation and imperceptible joy in her heart.
