Concubine Shu was furious in her heart. Although she did not have a prince, her holy favor had not declined for many years. This Princess An, who was just a pawn, really regarded herself as a person!
Just when she was about to continue to speak back, the Queen Mother, who had been silent, suddenly turned her eyes and glanced at her lightly. The pressure of this glance shocked her, and she immediately swallowed the food that was already on her lips. if.
"Okay, don't pay attention to those rumors outside. They are just random remarks spread by people who have nothing to do. But you not only believe them to be true, but also talk about them all day long?" The Queen Mother spoke softly and interrupted directly. Without saying anything, Concubine Shu directly concluded the matter.
As soon as the Queen Mother said this, everyone present was shocked!
When the Queen Mother said this, she had already made her attitude clear. She did not believe the rumors outside at all!
Everyone was surprised, could it be that the Queen Mother was looking for Princess An? Did she recognize the position of Princess An, the eldest daughter of Xia Mansion? !
But why? I have never heard of Princess An entering the palace to accompany the Queen Mother. Maybe this is the first time for the Queen Mother to see Princess An in person, right? After all, Princess An did not enter the palace to serve tea on the second day of her wedding!
Most of the people present did not know that Xia Luotong had met the Queen Mother once before, and they only thought that this was the first time the two of them had met.
But it is precisely because of this that everyone is so suspicious, wondering if the Queen Mother has given out some signals about Prince An's Palace?
Under the prying eyes of everyone, the Queen Mother seemed not to notice at all, and did not even care about Concubine Shu's embarrassed face. After saying those words, when she looked at Xia Luotong again, her face had regained its previous calm expression. Smiling: "Luo Tong, come to the Ai family and offer a seat."
Such an intimate title made everyone present feel a sudden shock. Looking at the gentle look on the Queen Mother's face, their hearts were filled with disbelief!
You must know that the Queen Mother was very decisive when she was young. Even though she is old now, she is still rarely so kind to others. Even the princes and princesses in the palace rarely make the Queen Mother so gentle. They treat each other well, so the princes and princesses in the palace rarely come to Cining Palace on weekdays. The Queen Mother likes to be quiet, which also saves the concubines from having to worry about morning and evening.
Xia Luotong was not surprised by the kindness shown by the Queen Mother. As for the reason, she naturally knew it well. After all, she was the one who could detoxify the Queen Mother's precious grandson Wu Zechen.
So she didn't show the slightest bit of surprise or timidity, but instead bowed and thanked her gracefully, then walked to the Queen Mother's side, glanced at Si Hanyan, who was also sitting next to the Queen Mother, and smiled at each other.
As keen as the Queen Mother, she naturally saw the interaction between the two of them. She felt a little more satisfied with Xia Luotong. Originally, she was a little worried that her grandniece would have a boring temper in the palace, but she didn't expect that Si After Hanyan got along with Xia Luotong and Xi Menghan, her temperament became more lively and she often had a smile on her face.
"You two hit it off, so let's stay with the Ai family together."
As soon as the Queen Mother said this, everyone was shocked again, and looked at Xia Luotong and Si Hanyan with even more probing eyes.
Princess An and Si Hanyan, the Queen Mother's grand-niece, actually know each other?
The queen on the side flashed her eyes slightly, raised a friendly smile, and asked casually: "So the princess and Hanyan know each other?"
Xia Luotong raised his eyes and looked at the queen who spoke. She was graceful and noble, somewhat like the mother of a country. However, she was different from the noble concubine in her beauty. However, they had been with the emperor since he was still the prince. Now they have She is old, and even if she takes good care of herself, she cannot compare with the relatively young concubines like Concubine Shu.
"Yes, by coincidence, I helped Hanyan a little, and that's how we got to know each other." Xia Luotong was not afraid to tell how she met Si Hanyan, but some people would be afraid of her telling her.
Pretending to be casual, she glanced at Zheng Chunhua who was not far away, and she saw the look of panic and fear on his face.
As the legitimate daughter of General Anbei and the niece of the Crown Prince's wife, Zheng Chunhua is now in the capital, so she naturally has to attend a banquet like the New Year's Eve banquet.
At this time, Zheng Chunhua was standing behind his mother, General Anbei's wife. She was still peeking at Xia Luotong and Si Hanyan. When she heard Xia Luotong mention that incident, she was so scared that she immediately buried her head. He kept his head down, fearing to attract the attention of these people.
At that time, Zheng Chunhua didn't know that the girl he pushed into the water turned out to be the Queen Mother's niece and the direct daughter of the Si family. It was only after they met at a banquet that they learned Si Hanyan's identity. At that time, she could be given to She was frightened, but fortunately the Queen Mother did not trouble her. It seemed that Si Hanyan did not inform the Queen Mother about this.
Originally, Zheng Chunhua had been worried for a long time and would avoid Si Hanyan whenever she saw him at a banquet. After so long, she thought she was fine, but Xia Luotong mentioned it again, which she didn't expect. What's surprising is that this Xia Luotong turned out to be the "famous" Princess An!
Xia Luotong had no intention of going into detail about this matter. Since Si Hanyan didn't want to worry the Queen Mother, she naturally wouldn't take the initiative to talk about it.
The queen raised her eyebrows slightly, and she was a little concerned about how the two people knew each other. After all, Si Hanyan was from the Si family and was loved by the Queen Mother, while Xia Luotong was Princess An. Their identities...
But seeing that Xia Luotong didn't mean to say anything, she couldn't continue to ask further. After all, the matter involved Si Hanyan, and it would be bad if the Queen Mother was displeased.
She finally managed to survive. The Queen Mother was no longer in charge of palace affairs, and everything was handed over to her and Wu Guifei and others. If the Queen Mother was angered, these powers in their hands might not be stable.
"You two are destined to be together. I didn't expect that the relationship between the princess and Hanyan is quite good." The queen smiled dignifiedly, and the relationship between the two of them could already be seen from Xia Luotong's name to Si Hanyan.
"You two have such a good relationship, and the princess seems to be in good health. If there is a banquet in the palace in the future, you can come and join in the fun, and you can also be Hanyan's companion." Concubine Wu on the side took over the words, enthusiastically Inviting.
Seeing that Concubine Wu had taken the lead in her speech, the Queen frowned imperceptibly, with a hint of displeasure flashing in her eyes.
"Thank you, Imperial Concubine, for your kind invitation." Xia Luotong smiled and thanked her, but she was half-sent, neither agreeing nor rejecting.
Concubine Wu's eyes flashed with a smile, but she didn't say anything more. Prince An held a large number of soldiers and his reputation spread throughout the countries. It was too late for her to win him over, so how could he turn against him? Although it is not yet known what Princess An's status is in Prince An's heart, she still occupies the identity of the princess, so she still needs to investigate more.
