After crossing, I was dragged by the bamboo horse and became a queen

Chapter 715
As soon as the Empress Dowager spoke, Xiao Mingrui guessed what she was going to say, and his expression changed immediately.

However, this old lady was Xiao Mingrui's mother after all, and she was also the empress dowager. In the end, Xiao Mingrui still didn't have the face of the empress dowager. She immediately changed the subject, talking about him, trying to expose this topic.

But He Lingyao didn't pay that much attention.He Lingyao glanced at his mother, and then said to the Empress Dowager with a smile: "Grandmother, the two good candidates you mentioned are the two cousins ​​of the Yang family who are currently living in the uncle's mansion, right? "

"Exactly." The Empress Dowager nodded with a smile, and immediately followed He Lingyao's words: "You are also familiar with these two girls, they are both gentle and gentle girls, our relatives of the Yang family, although they are Side branch, but the family status is not too low, and they are close relatives, Yi Ai's family thinks it is very suitable. Besides, Rui'er, don't you also think that when marrying a daughter-in-law, character is the most important thing, and everything else doesn't matter."

Xiao Mingrui remained silent, while He Lingyao raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked with a surprised expression: "Grandmother, I still remember that the cousin of the Yang family came to Beijing from Yongzhou last year. When she first came, she also went to Beijing." Come visit us at our house! Why, it has been more than a year, and they are still staying in the capital, isn't the family in a hurry?"

"I live in your uncle's mansion, so there is nothing to worry about at home." The empress dowager replied: "They are all relatives of the family, and there is no shortage of food for them in your uncle's mansion. It's okay to go back to Yongzhou after the marriage is settled." Not too late."

"Oh! I understand." He Lingyao pretended to be suddenly enlightened: "It turns out that the emperor's grandmother wanted to find a good marriage for them! That's why she missed my brother for nothing. The emperor's grandmother is really eccentric. The cousins ​​of the Yang family have planned so carefully."

"You child, what are you talking about." The empress dowager immediately became a little unhappy, feeling that He Lingyao is really ignorant today: "Your brother is the grandson of the Ai family, and the girl of the Yang family is just the distant niece of the Ai family. Anyone can tell the difference between closeness and closeness. If the Ai family is biased, it is also partial to your brother. If it weren't for the fact that the girl from the Yang family is really wonderful, why would the Ai family want to tell your brother?"

"Yes!" He Lingyao said with sarcasm: "The cousins ​​of the Yang family are extremely nice! They originally planned to enter the East Palace to be the prince's side concubine. In this way, it is indeed a disadvantage for the cousins ​​of the Yang family to match my brother." After all, my elder brother is just a county king, and he is not a bit worse than the crown prince. It’s a pity that cousin Jing Heng doesn’t like girls from the Yang family. They only like cousins. No matter how good the cousin of the Yang family is, it’s useless, so the emperor Grandmother is willing to let them be so wronged and settle for second best!"

He Lingyao's unceremonious words immediately turned the old lady's face black with anger.But Xiao Mingrui finally opened his mouth at this time, but he just pretended to scold his daughter lightly: "Yao'er, please stop talking."

It's so painless, the attitude is already obvious.The empress dowager understood that her daughter was determined not to cooperate!This made the empress dowager couldn't help being even more angry.

The grandson, who grew up not by her side, is rebellious, and it's fine if he refuses to listen to her arrangements. Why is his daughter's attitude so tough?The empress dowager just couldn't figure it out, what's so bad about kissing each other? !

However, speaking of this, the Empress Dowager knew very well that there was no room for change in the matter, and her daughter's attitude was so resolute, which never occurred to her.

Looking at Xiao Mingrui's expressionless face, the Empress Dowager's mood suddenly became extremely bad, she was not even in the mood to speak again, so she waved to the maid in charge beside her, expressing that she was going to rest for a while.

It's normal for the empress dowager to be in poor spirits, after all, she was so frightened by the so-called "disaster" that she almost didn't sleep all night.

Xiao Mingrui thought about it, and felt that the old lady had been tense since last night, and she really should take a rest, besides, she really didn't want the Empress Dowager to bring up the matter of proposing marriage to her son.

So Xiao Mingrui immediately ordered the maid he brought along with the maid in charge of Shouan Palace to help the Empress Dowager into the bedroom.

Xiao Mingrui knew why she entered the palace, so she didn't dare to fully trust everyone in Shou'an Palace, so she decided to accompany the empress dowager to rest herself.

She stared at the people and helped the Empress Dowager to the bed, then put down the bed curtains herself, then sat on the couch beside her, guarded it herself, and asked someone to find a book for her to pass the time.

Although the maid in charge of Shou'an Palace didn't understand why the eldest princess did this, she still followed Xiao Mingrui's wishes and asked the eldest princess to accompany the empress dowager.

The bored He Lingyao couldn't leave, so he could only take people for a walk in the courtyard of Shou'an Palace, chatting with the maids to relieve boredom.

The empress dowager seemed to be lying quietly, but in fact the old lady didn't sleep at all.She is angry with her daughter!

Because I didn't want to talk to my daughter and granddaughter, I just went to bed and lay down.However, lying alone did not improve her mood at all. The more she lay down, the more her thoughts became wild, and the more she thought about it, the more angry she felt!This breath could not be released, and it hit the empress dowager's chest tight and her head dizzy.

But probably because she was too exhausted, the empress dowager actually fell asleep in a daze while she was so angry.

The sleeping hall was quiet, Xiao Mingrui was reading a book alone and accompanied the Empress Dowager until lunch time, when He Lingyao came in quietly.

"Mother, it's the end of the hour. It's time for lunch. Is the imperial grandmother still awake?" He Lingyao asked in a low voice, "It's better to wake up the imperial grandmother for lunch, and then go to sleep. I'm afraid she will leave again at night." Sleepy."

Xiao Mingrui responded lightly, then nodded slightly to the maid in charge standing beside her.The maid in charge hastily went to pick up the empress dowager's bed curtain, Xiao Mingrui put down the book, walked over in person, ready to wake up the empress dowager.

"Mother's Empress," Xiao Mingrui patted the Empress Dowager who was lying on her side with her back facing her: "Mother's Empress, it's already noon, it's time to get up and have lunch, you wake up, my daughter will help you up."

The empress dowager didn't move...

"Mother's queen?" Xiao Mingrui had no choice but to stretch out his hand to support the empress dowager, and gently turned the empress dowager's body around: "If you continue to sleep, you will be sleepy at night, you... Mother's queen?!"

Xiao Mingrui's whole body was stiff, his hands trembled slightly, his eyes widened in horror, staring at the Empress Dowager's slanted face.

"Um...uh..." The empress dowager uttered an inarticulate voice, and the saliva wet the pillow from the corner of her lips.

"Hurry up!" Xiao Mingrui immediately turned around and ordered: "The imperial physician please! Then please invite the emperor and empress to come here immediately!"

"I'll go in person!" He Lingyao, who was also taken aback, picked up her skirt and ran away.

　---Here is the dividing line of the Empress Dowager ---
　　Ah ha ha ha, I didn't expect it, I'm waiting here.

　　This tragic story tells us that it’s okay to be sulking less, and the most likely cause of sulking is that others don’t hurt or itch, and you are angry at yourself.
