Chapter 63: Ai's Family Pricks Himself!
...
The news that the Empress Dowager tied up the Ninth Princess to Kunning Palace early in the morning was spread throughout the harem. Concubine De and Concubine Zhen were represented, and they came to investigate the enemy's situation with the name of paying homage.
They came to Kunning Palace with a chat and laughing all the way. The bright smile on their faces was as if they had spent a good night with the emperor last night, rosy and shiny.
When he arrived outside Kunning Palace, the empress dowager's majestic voice was endless, "Come on! Take the hairpin for the Ai family! The Ai family is tugging it in person!"
"Empress Dowager, you don't have to do it yourself..."
Everyone: "..." Damn it! Is the Empress Dowager going to do it yourself?
And it's a hairpin, hissing - it hurts so much!
Although the little princess is very favored, she is a child after all, and there is nothing big mistakes. Such a punishment is a bit miserable.
With a beating heart, they tiptoed into Kunning Palace.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered, I was shocked by the scene in front of me. The twisted little face seemed to have eaten a piece of flies, and I couldn't come back to my senses for a long time.
"Grandma of the Emperor~ What a heavy hairpin, don't put it on." Su Jiu sat in front of the empress dowager and ate the pastry carefully prepared in the imperial kitchen, while wailing to support the gold-filled head.
"Oh, Ai's little girl, this is where you go, beg~ the last one, really the last one."
After saying that, he took out two more hairpins and inserted them all into the little girl's hair.
Concubine De: "..."
Zhenfei: "…"
A group of concubines: "..." Sorry, they shouldn't be ruthless and feel sorry for Princess Ninth.
People don't need their heartache at all.
When the empress dowager heard the sound, she looked up and saw standing at the door, looking like she was caught by a ghost, put down her hairpin and sat upright, and said majestic, "Why are you here?"
Early in the morning, I didn’t sleep in the palace, so why did she wander around here?
Concubine De suppressed the doubts in her heart, performed a standard etiquette to the Empress Dowager, and then said softly, "I heard that the Empress Dowager came back from Wanshou Mountain and specially brought all the sisters to pay tribute to the Empress Dowager."
The Empress Dowager looked unwilling and said, "You also know that the Ai family has just returned from Wanshou Mountain. The Ai family has walked so far. You have come here long ago. What kind of wish are you content? Don't let the Ai family have a good rest?"
Concubine De's face froze, and she didn't expect that the Empress Dowager would like them to pay her respects so much.
Hasn’t the Queen Mother always been the most rules? As long as she was in the palace, she could not leave her daily greetings. What’s wrong with this today?
Concubine De smiled sweetly again and said with a pleasing look on her face, "What the Empress Dowager taught me is that I am not considering it well, so I will definitely keep it in mind in the future."
Seeing that Concubine De was so tactful, the Empress Dowager calmed down and said lightly, "Well, let's sit down."
The two-foot monks were confused and found their seats in a daze. Just as they were about to sit down, the sound of the two people talking came from the seat.
"Good baby, come on, Grandma Huang wants to eat too."
Su Jiu raised his eyes and saw the queen mother over fifty years old looking at her. She swallowed the pastry, raised a piece of pastry with her little hand, handed it to her, and said sweetly, "Okay."
The love in the eyes of the queen mother is not like a fake, it is like an ordinary grandmother who likes her granddaughter to feed her food.
The queen mother who got her granddaughter's snacks as she wished, was so happy that she was about to float up, and her lips bent again and again, "Oh, my good baby's pastry is delicious, and the little heart of the Ai family has melted." After that, she picked up the little girl and kissed her hard.
Concubine De: "..."
Zhenfei: "…"
A group of concubines: "..."
