Leng Xiao picked some and asked someone to send them to the queen, which was considered as a filial piety. She hoped to reconcile with the queen. It just depends on whether she is willing to take this step.
The queen went down the steps and gave Leng Xiao another reward. It was obvious that the temper tantrums of Leng Xiao and Nangong Yitian scared her.
However, no matter what, neither mother-in-law nor daughter-in-law can go back to the past. Leng Xiao thinks it doesn't matter. As long as she doesn't come to make trouble, some distance is better.
The Empress Dowager also sent a sandalwood screen, which confirmed her intention to treat the prince.
Leng Xiao would personally go and thank the Empress Dowager for the reward.
The Empress Dowager still had a normal attitude toward her, but she asked Aunt Wanrong to prepare food and medicine, saying that she had lost weight while treating the prince and needed to make up for it.
When Ape heard that it was medicated food, she felt that she should be more vigilant. The queen's bowl of medicated food scared her.
But after eating, Leng Xiao also drank the medicinal meal, not a drop was left. Ape was frightened, but the Queen Mother was a little surprised.
"Aren't you afraid that the Ai family will poison you?"
Leng Xiao wiped the corner of her mouth and said with a smile: "The Queen Mother will not harm me now. My belly is so big and the fetus is formed. The Queen Mother cannot bear it."
"The Ai family can't bear it?" The Queen Mother sneered, "Then you have never seen the Ai family be so cruel."
"I haven't seen it, but I know it." Leng Xiao smiled mischievously, stood up and walked to the chaise longue to lie down, her pretty face full of relaxed comfort, "But, I just don't think you will attack me now."
The Empress Dowager's face darkened, "Leng Xiao, don't think you can see through the Ai family. The Ai family did ask someone to put this medicine in to restrain you."
Leng Xiao opened her fingers and counted, "It is indeed filled with medicine, red dates, Ophiopogon japonicus, donkey hide gelatin, Codonopsis pilosula, astragalus..."
"Shut up!" The Queen Mother interrupted her angrily, her face turned blue.
It really makes people hate her so much that she shouldn't give her something so that she can come over and complain when she gets the chance.
"Get up, this is where the Ai family is lying." The Queen Mother walked over and kicked her feet with her toes.
Leng Xiao glanced at the Arhat bed next to her, then stroked her stomach, "It's uncomfortable. My belly is too big. It's uncomfortable. I'll lie down for a while."
"If you want to lie down, go back to your East Palace and lie down. There are not many people in such a big East Palace. Isn't there enough room for you to lie down?"
"This imperial concubine's bed is very comfortable. The one in the East Palace is not as comfortable."
The Queen Mother was furious, "Are you still a swindler? You scumbag!"
Leng Xiao smiled and said, "Then what I am carrying in my belly are all puppies."
The empress dowager's teeth were itching, so she walked to the Arhat's bed and lay down halfway, cursing, "Yes, you are pregnant with puppies."
Leng Xiao raised her eyebrows, "But you don't know who the puppy's great-grandmother is?"
The Empress Dowager casually took a soft pillow and threw it over, "I called you poor!"
Ape looked on, confused, what's going on? Aren't the Empress Dowager and the Crown Princess at war with each other? Why do we seem to be getting along so well now?
The empress dowager's previous attempts to make things difficult were real, and her malice was chilling.
Why are we so harmonious now?
The Queen Mother half-closed her eyes on the Luohan bed, not knowing what she was thinking. After a while, she opened her eyes and said, "Come here."
Leng Xiao opened one eye, "What are you doing?"
"Come here!" The Empress Dowager glared at her, "Bring the soft pillow over and put it on your neck. It hurts."
"It must hurt to wear so many pearls." Leng Xiao handed the soft pillow to Ape, "Send it to the Queen Mother."
Apei took the soft pillow and brought it to the Empress Dowager. Aunt Wanrong took it and helped the Empress Dowager lay it down. She said, "I still have some things to do."
The Empress Dowager said lazily: "Go!"
