"For me?"
Shanshan opened his eyes wide and looked at the palace man in front of him and the car full of gifts behind him in disbelief. She couldn't help but raise her voice and repeated excitedly: "The Queen Mother gave it to me?!"
The palace attendant responded: "The Empress Dowager named her to Miss Wen Shan of the Wen family."
How many Wens are there in the capital? How many Wenshan are there?
Of course I’m talking about her!
Shanshan's eyes were bright, and she stood on tiptoe to look at the carriage. The gifts on the carriage were piled as high as a hill. She could tell at a glance that there were many items from the Zhenbaozhai. She could also smell the fragrance. Delicious snacks!
But she didn't accept it immediately. Instead, she raised her head and looked at her mother, asking for her opinion, "Mom? Can I accept it?"
Wen Yiqing pursed her lips tightly, subconsciously protected her behind her, and asked cautiously: "Father-in-law, what else did the Queen Mother say?"
The palace servant smiled and said: "The Queen Mother only said that it was a meeting gift for Miss Wen Shan, so that she could have a good time. She didn't say a word. Mrs. Wen, please send a few people to move the things in."
Wen Yiqing asked again without giving up: "Other than that, not a word?"
"Don't say a word, not even half a word."
The nanny whispered from the side: "Miss? What are you worried about? The Queen Mother has given me a gift. What a blessing it is!"
Wen Yiqing naturally knew it in his heart.
The Queen Mother gave a gift, and there was absolutely no reason to refuse it. She was the only one in the entire Wen family who knew the inside story. The reason why the Queen Mother looked at her Shanshan in a different light was naturally because she knew Shanshan's origin and knew that she was the child of the current saint.
But that man had clearly promised her that he would never disturb her and Shanshan's life again, so how could he go back on his word? !
She held her daughter's hand and watched the servants in the family move the car full of things in. The little girl beside her couldn't wait. As soon as she let go, she would happily run around the yard.
Sure enough, when the palace man drove away in an empty carriage, the little girl happily walked forward. She took the stones to dig through them and opened the brocade boxes one by one. All the gifts from the Queen Mother were delivered to her heart. Most of them were children's favorite toys. From time to time, an exclamation came from there.
"Mother!" Shanshan ran over with a brocade box in his arms, held it in front of her like a treasure, and said with bright eyes, "Look, the Queen Mother gave me a puppy!"
It is also a puppy from Zhenbaozhai. Its tail is like a clockwork and it can run by itself after turning around in a circle. Shanshan had one before, but before he got tired of playing with it, he gave it to Shen Yungui to replace it with jewelry. She skillfully turned the clockwork on the puppy, and the round-headed puppy spread its legs and started walking on the flat road.
Shanshan couldn't wait to run around with the puppy: "The Queen Mother is so powerful, how does she know what I want?"
Her toy box had been empty before she had time to fill it, but now it was filled to the brim as soon as the Queen Mother's gifts arrived.
Yes, yes, there are also snacks given to her by the Queen Mother.
She fell asleep on the way home yesterday and didn't have time to eat. Plus today's new snacks were delivered, two large boxes full. She generously gave half of the stone.
Wen Yiqing was still sitting in trance when she heard the sound of soft footsteps approaching. She raised her eyes and saw her little daughter standing in front of her with a sweet smile on her cheeks. She motioned for her to stretch out her hand, and a piece of sweet pastry fell into her hand.
"Mom, I've tasted them all, and this one is the most delicious." Shanshan looked back and saw that Shitou was also eating snacks. He came close to her ear and said in a mysterious voice: "There are only two pieces. I didn’t even give it to Brother Shitou, I kept it specially for you.”
She smiled.
She put down the snack and took her little daughter into her arms.
"Shanshan, we don't want these."
"Why?" Shanshan was puzzled: "Mom, didn't you say you could take it?"
Wen Yiqing gently poked the little girl's smooth and tender face, causing Shanshan to utter an ouch and quickly raised his hands to cover his face. She tasted the taste and said, "When has Mom ever treated you badly? The Queen Mother gave you toys, but Mom has never bought them for you before? Are you so happy?"
Shanshan said quickly: "My mother gave it to me, I like it too, I'm so happy!"
"Do you like the Queen Mother that much?"
Good and good can't be said for a while.
Anyway, when she first saw the Queen Mother, she felt extremely friendly, just like meeting the emperor's uncle for the first time.
As far back as she could remember, her mother was the only one around her, and all her elders had passed away. Although there were many servants in the house, it was also deserted. Later, when she arrived at Uncle Zhongyong's house, she was happy for a while, but there was an annoying third aunt in the uncle's house, and a grandmother who would bully her mother. Except for her eldest aunt, her eldest cousin, and her third cousin, there was no one. Want to play with her.
Although she is a big-hearted little girl, she can also detect who treats her well and who treats her badly. Just like the third aunt is always smiling, but Shanshan just doesn't like her. The Queen Mother was kind and easy-going, and she would gently touch her head, which made Shanshan want to nuzzle her.
Shanshan wrung his fingers in embarrassment, "But, you said last time that if I see my kind uncle again, you want me to thank him properly. The Queen Mother is the emperor's uncle's mother. When we left the palace last night, she She also said that she would let me play with her often."
Wen Yiqing lowered his eyes and said softly: "It's different."
"What's the difference?"
"I didn't know before that the kind person who saved you was the emperor."
"is it not OK?"
Shanshan still remembers that at the palace banquet yesterday, she saw the emperor wearing a dragon robe. He had changed his clothes and was still majestic, but he was still so approachable. He also invited himself to attend the palace banquet he had dreamed of, and Shanshan was even more grateful to him.
"Of course not." Wen Yiqing's voice was soft. Although he was holding his daughter, his eyes were not focused, as if he was talking to himself, "If he likes you too much, he will keep you in the palace."
Shanshan's eyes were bright, "Then can I go and play with the emperor every day?"
"Do you know who will stay in the palace?" Wen Yiqing said cruelly: "A child like you will go in to be a little palace maid."
Be good and stay still.
All the expectations and joy are solidified on the round little face.
"Do you know what the little palace maid is going to do?" Wen Yiqing threatened her. "You have to get up before dawn and work. You serve tea and water to the nobles in the palace every day. You have no one to play with you. You don't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes. You will be beaten and scolded. You will not be able to see your mother for the rest of your life, and you will not be able to play with your puppy."
Shanshan looked at her in panic and tried to defend: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, he is a good person..."
"You went to the palace banquet yesterday. Did you see many palace maids?"
Shanshan was already in a state of confusion. When she heard this, she quickly threw herself into her mother's arms and hugged her mother tightly with both hands, for fear that she would be taken away.
"I want to be with my mother." She couldn't help but shed tears. She cried loudly and said: "Mom, I don't want to be a little palace maid. If I am captured, you must save me." come out."
"Mom can't do it."
"Why?!"
Wen Yiqing wiped away her tears distressedly and said hard-heartedly: "Mother is not as powerful as the emperor. If you are captured by him, mother will not be able to save you."
"That...that..."
"Just remember, next time you see him, run far away and don't talk to him, you know?"
With tears in his eyes, Shanshan nodded vigorously, remembering this deeply in his little head.
There is no kind uncle in her heart. She is only afraid that she will be favored by the emperor and be taken into the palace to be a maid. She doesn't know anything, she can't even do the homework in school correctly, and she certainly can't do it well as a little palace maid. If she does something wrong, she will be beaten and scolded, which will hurt her terribly.
Her mother loved Shanshan so much, she never beat her, never let her go hungry, and was reluctant to let her work. Shanshan didn't want to be separated from her mother.
She was severely frightened, and one night she even had a dream about being taken into the palace to be a little palace maid. In the dream, even the kind-hearted uncle of the emperor turned into a monster who would capture her to make soup. She cried loudly in the dream, and her mother came to save her and was caught together in the pot.
The next day, she got up and went to school, feeling very sleepy.
His head was downcast, and even the delicate beaded flowers on his head seemed to have withered.
Wen Yiqing looked a little distressed, but he also knew that she was very forgetful, and he was afraid that she would turn around and forget about this incident, and get close to that person again next time she saw him. Before going out, he pulled her over to give her some instructions. Shanshan nodded her head as she listened.
On the way, Shi Shi comforted her: "If you are arrested, then I will let them arrest me too. I know how to work, and I will help you."
Shanshan was extremely sad: "Brother Shitou, you are a boy, you can't be a little palace maid."
Shitou thought for a while and silently closed his mouth.
Go to the school entrance.
Shi Shi got off the carriage first, and then reached out to pick her up. As soon as the family carriage left, a luxurious-looking carriage escorted by a whole team of guards stopped at the entrance of the school.
There is only one person in the entire Qingsong Academy who is treated like this.
As soon as the prince got off the carriage, he saw the little girl standing not far away. He smiled and shouted: "Shan Shan."
But the little girl's eyes widened in horror at the next moment.
She didn't show him a sweet smile as usual, nor did she respond. She didn't know what she saw, but she turned around and ran away. She carried her book bag, stepped on her short legs, and headed towards the school without looking back. rush.
The little girl, who had always been lazy and slow, never anxious when she was in a hurry, ran so fast for the first time.
The prince suddenly froze on the spot.
