On the wedding night, the sick prince stood up!

Chapter 71

Nanny Li hurriedly said to the Queen Mother, "How can such a trivial matter bother Concubine Miao, what should I do if His Majesty finds out about it?"

Seeing that Nanny Li actually used Yedi to suppress her, the Empress Dowager Gu's eyes flashed displeasure.

She only heard her ordering to Nanny Li, "It's almost time for Aijia to take the medicine, go to the small kitchen and see how long the medicine for Aijia is still good."

This is obviously to transfer Nanny Li away, and Nanny Li is not needed at all for such a small matter of seeing medicine.

This is just an excuse for the Queen Mother to let her leave, so that the Queen Mother can teach Concubine Miao a good lesson.

Nanny Li looked at Concubine Miao, then at the Queen Mother, and finally left with a bitter look on her face.

When Nanny Li left, the Queen Mother looked towards Concubine Miao.

"Go, bring a copper basin and come over to serve Ai's family to clean their hands. This weather makes people sweat easily, and the palms feel sticky."

Although Concubine Miao had an excuse to refuse to kneel and worship, she could only grit her teeth and swallow the empress dowager's difficulties.

Gu Xiyue wanted to help, but she didn't expect to be stopped by the Queen Mother.

"As a junior, it's not your turn to intervene at this time. Ai's family is regarded as Concubine Miao's mother-in-law, so it's only natural for her to serve her."

"Your mother-in-law serves Ai's family, so you can kneel next to her and learn. Don't tell Ai's family that you can't even kneel."

I thought it would be as simple as serving the Empress Dowager to clean her hands, but I never thought that the Empress Dowager would make Concubine Miao kneel to wash her hands.

"Don't use His Majesty's tricks to prevaricate Aijia, he just said that you are not allowed to salute, he didn't say that you are not allowed to kneel down and serve Aijia's mother-in-law."

Seeing Concubine Miao kneeling on the ground holding the copper basin, the corners of the Queen Mother's lips were raised high and she smiled.

She didn't reach out her hand, but said to Concubine Miao, "You are holding it so low, do you want Ai Jia to bend down and clean her hands?"

Concubine Miao had no choice but to raise it higher.

Now the ancient empress dowager began to wash her hands slowly, still lecturing Concubine Miao.

"Your rules are really ordinary. Being a concubine is just a thing to serve others. I don't know why you are so delicate."

"You have to serve not only His Majesty, but also the Empress Dowager Aijia, and the Empress of the Lord of the Six Palaces."

The Queen Mother said coldly, "Don't be too flamboyant on weekdays, otherwise don't blame Aijia for punishing your madness."

It took half a stick of incense to wash hands from the beginning to the end, and the ancient empress dowager asked Concubine Miao to raise the copper basin a little higher, which caused Concubine Miao's hands to become more and more sore.

Seeing this, Gu Xiyue said, "Queen Mother, as the daughter-in-law of the concubine, why don't you let the grandson hold the copper basin."

The Queen Mother did not want her to get her wish, she lifted her chin and said happily.

"The Ai family has already said that you are Concubine Miao's daughter-in-law, not the daughter-in-law of the Ai family. The Ai family only wants Concubine Miao to serve, and you just kneel and learn."

I don't know if it's because the mother-in-law is born to spoil the daughter-in-law, but this ancient queen mother is completely nitpicking.

Seeing Concubine Miao's pale face becoming more and more unbearable, the smile on the face of the Ancient Empress Dowager became bigger and bigger.

Finally Gu Xiyue couldn't stand it anymore, she squinted her eyes and rushed towards Concubine Miao.

I saw the basin of handwashing water splashed directly on the face of the ancient queen mother.

In the last second, the ancient queen mother was gloating and smiling, and in the next second, she became a drowned rat.

The ancient queen mother wiped off the water stains on her face with her hands, pointed at Concubine Miao and Gu Xiyue and said sharply.

"You guys are so brave, Ai's family is sick, and you dare to be so rebellious, and pour a basin of water on Ai's family."

"Concubine Miao, if you don't want to serve the Ai family, just say so, can the Ai family still force you?"

Gu Xiyue showed a sly look at Concubine Miao, and then said to the Queen Mother.

"Queen Mother, all of this has nothing to do with the concubine's mother. It's the daughter-in-law who didn't stand upright and splashed water on you without paying attention. The daughter-in-law is here to clean it up for you."

After she finished speaking, she got up and stepped forward, pulled down the bed curtain and wiped the back of the Queen Mother, ignoring the screams of the Queen Mother.

Concubine Miao couldn't react to the scene in front of her. When she realized, the face of the ancient empress dowager had already been wiped dry.

But the clothes on her body were already soaked, and she looked very embarrassed.

Really stealing chicken without losing rice.

The ancient queen mother shouted towards the outside, "Come here, come quickly, let the Ai family arrest these two people who disobeyed the elders."

"Mother."

Emperor Ye came in from outside wearing a dragon robe, followed by Nanny Li.

Obviously, Nanny Li went to rescue Concubine Miao and Gu Xiyue.

Seeing Emperor Ye came, Empress Dowager Gu's eyes flashed unwillingness, after all, she just wanted to teach Concubine Miao and Gu Xiyue a lesson in private.

She turned to Yedi and asked coldly, "Why are you here?"

Ye Di replied, "The queen mother is sick, how can the son not come and see?"

Then he looked at Concubine Miao and Gu Xiyue and said, "Concubine Miao is spoiled by her son so her ten fingers don't touch the spring water, so she can't take care of the queen mother well. Gu Xiyue doesn't know the rules in the palace, so I'm afraid she will annoy the queen mother. "

"In this case, let the two of them go back. The son will re-select a concubine to serve the mother's illness."

Just these two sentences determined Concubine Miao's coming and going with Gu Xiyue, and the face of the ancient empress dowager beside her was ashen.

She sneered at Ye Di, "You really arranged it properly, Ai's family was harmed so badly by the two, can't you see it?"

Emperor Ye said helplessly, "The queen mother was doused with water, if you don't want the imperial doctor Xuan to take a look, this concubine Miao and Princess Ye can't cure your illness either."

"Since the imperial doctor said that the queen mother needs to rest, it's better to find some quiet people to come over."

Before the Queen Mother could continue to entangle, Ye Di pulled Concubine Miao and walked out, Gu Xiyue hurriedly followed.

Watching Yedi take Concubine Miao and Gu Xiyue away, the ancient queen mother was so angry that her chest rose and fell, and finally fell down on the bed without saying a word.

As soon as she stepped out of the Palace of Compassion and Ning, Concubine Miao shook off Ye Di's arm, and then saluted Ye Di in a respectful manner.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for saving me today."

Seeing Concubine Miao being so alienated from him, Yedi's eyes flashed with sadness.

"Are you really so estranged from me?"

Concubine Miao looked up at him and said, "The concubine is just your majesty's concubine, and she acts according to the rules, so why bother talking about alienation."

"Forget it, I still have a memorial, you go back first."

Concubine Miao breathed a sigh of relief when Emperor Ye left.

Gu Xiyue, who was at the side, said to Concubine Miao, "Why should Concubine Mother be so distant, it's not good for Concubine Mother."

"My son understands the matter of the concubine mother. After all, one thing more is worse than one thing less. But if the concubine mother is not favored, then the queen will definitely not let the concubine mother go."

Judging from the past few days, this queen is like a mad dog, wanting to bite off a piece of Concubine Miao's flesh whenever she gets the chance.He even wanted to kill Concubine Miao directly.

The queen mother has to target the queen's strategy, for the benefit of the snipe and the clam.

Gu Xiyue hesitated and said, "Furthermore, I learned within an hour that the prince was assassinated, and among them were the orphans of the mother clan of the ancient empress dowager. His Majesty wiped them all out a few days ago. I think the queen mother is blaming the prince."

"What did you say?"

Concubine Miao said incredulously, "Shang'er is her own grandson, how could she be so ignorant of what is more important?"
