Chapter 49 Her Fate
After staying in the Compassionate Palace for some time, everyone was chatting and laughing, thanks to His Majesty and the Empress coming, the Empress Dowager finally did not continue to neglect those concubines.

No, they also participated in the chat together.

It was Zhou Chengjing who sat there alone, as if he was ignored by everyone, and he was the only one who didn't participate in the chat.

A low-ranking concubine said with a flattering smile, "The empress's outfit today looks like it really matches your majesty."

It's really a matter of which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted. Xie Jintang had almost forgotten about it, and she and Zhou Chengjing had tacitly not mentioned it from the beginning, but this person said it at this time.

Another concubine who wanted to cling to her also flattered her with a flattering smile: "I think so too."

No, Zhou Chengjing was finally willing to throw her a look with a gloomy expression.

Xie Jintang didn't know what he meant, so he looked a little uncomfortable.

It's ridicule, or disdain.

Still angry.

I was really afraid that he would affect me a little bit worse because of this, so I hurriedly came out to explain without the slightest hesitation: "It's a complete coincidence."

From Zhou Chengjing's point of view, she really wanted to get rid of him immediately.

Everyone originally wanted to please the queen. After all, the queen's love for her majesty was ignored by them, and the main reason was that none of them had been persecuted for it.

Thinking of using this to curry favor with the queen will definitely make her happy, but she doesn't seem to care anymore, and doesn't even want to leave the relationship at all.

As soon as this idea came out, those concubines who flattered her suddenly felt a little weird, and swallowed the words they were about to speak in an instant.

The atmosphere at the scene became awkward for a moment, and when she said this, it instantly became silent.

"The Ai family seems to be suitable. When the two of you came in just now, you were like a pair of virgins. Whether it's a coincidence or not, it also means that the hearts of the two of you are connected."

What the Empress Dowager meant was that the two of them had a good understanding, and they even thought of what color to wear together.

Even if it was a coincidence, it just showed the tacit understanding between the two of them.

Zhou Chengjing said lightly: "What the mother said is true."

Seeing that one of the parties involved has already stated her position, she can only reply obediently: "What the mother said is true."

Xie Jintang glanced at the person next to him strangely, but he really couldn't see what this person was thinking.

It looks very calm, probably not angry, which means I don't care.

Fortunately, Concubine Shu is still under confinement, otherwise she would be so angry that there would be no such joyful scene.

Then, the Empress Dowager chatted with Wen Xi about the daily routine, taking advantage of her spare time, she glanced at the concubines below.

I looked over one by one, but I didn't see the person I was thinking about.

That's right, it's our heroine Jiang Xian, maybe her position is too low, so she's not qualified to greet the Queen Mother.

She looked at it several times but didn't see it, so she was sure that Jiang Xian really didn't come.

But her small actions fell into Zhou Chengjing's eyes.

The other party's eyes fell on her, with a smile on his face, he said lightly: "What is the queen looking for?"

It's really rare to see a smile on Zhou Chengjing's face. In fact, it's better not to smile on this person. I always feel that there's something weird about it, like a superficial smile.

This was her first reaction when she saw this man's smile.

She laughed and felt her scalp tingle and her heart tense, always feeling like there was some big conspiracy in the other party's heart.

Xie Jintang smiled perfunctorily, and explained dryly: "I'll just take a look."

The other party didn't intend to let her go, it was a coincidence, a little girl ran in happily, and when Xie Jintang saw the little girl, he almost saw the savior, and quickly looked up at him with a smile on his face Said: "Zhaohua is here."

Zhou Chengjing leaned close to her ear and asked softly, "Isn't it a savior?"

After hearing this, she froze immediately and her scalp went numb.

It's terrifying that this guy can guess his own thoughts.

In response, Xie Jintang pursed his lips into a line, his face was stiff, and he smiled dryly: "Hehehe."

This intimate scene fell into the eyes of everyone, some were jealous, some were envious, and some were bumped.

The Empress Dowager is naturally happy, the Empress Dowager's good feelings are not only beneficial to her, but also beneficial to the Xie family.

No one noticed that a trace of elusive jealousy flashed in Wen Xi's eyes, he stared at the two of them firmly, the hands hidden under the hem of the skirt were tightly clenched, the nails were almost embedded in the flesh, but It's like feeling no pain at all.

The Queen Mother withdrew her gaze, and sighed to Wen Xi: "Now that the husband and wife are reconciled, the Ai family can feel relieved."

Wen Xi quickly returned to normal, almost forced a smile, said something against his will, and said flatteringly: "Minnv is also happy."

"Mother's queen, mother's queen." Xiao Zhaohua held a small dragonfly in his hand and shouted.

Zhaohua is the second daughter of the empress dowager and the first emperor, and also the youngest princess. She is only five years old and her name is Zhou Qingru.

After seeing her precious daughter, the Queen Mother finally showed a heartfelt smile, waved to her, and said softly, "Jiao Jiao, come here, Queen Mother."

Xiao Zhaohua threw herself into the Queen Mother's arms, and handed the little dragonfly in her hand to the Queen Mother as if offering a treasure, showing a childlike smile, and said in a childlike voice, "Look, Queen Mother, how cute the little dragonfly is."

When the other concubines saw this thing, they were frightened to death.

I complained in my heart: How did Princess Zhaohua bring the bugs in.

That's right, in the eyes of these concubines, this dragonfly is that terrible bug.

The queen mother looked at the dragonfly struggling in Zhaohua's hands, her eyes suddenly became complicated, she thought of something, her eye circles turned slightly red, but in order not to scare the child, she smiled and asked: "This little dragonfly is so beautiful. Where did you find it?"

Zhaohua didn't know what it meant, how could she understand the queen mother's mind at such a young age, and explained with a smile: "Sister Furong was arrested by Erchen."

During the talk, she kept teasing the dragonfly in her hand.

The dragonfly kept struggling.

For some reason, the Queen Mother suddenly thought of herself, so why is she not the caught dragonfly.

This sleepiness lasts a lifetime until death.

She gently stroked Xiao Zhaohua's head, and said gently: "Jiaojiao, you can see that the dragonfly has been struggling, which means it doesn't want to be trapped. If you don't put it back in the world, I'm afraid it will struggle until it dies." It’s just finished, don’t you want to see it?”

Hearing this, Zhaohua raised his head to look at her, his innocent eyes were instantly wet, and he shook his head desperately crying: "I don't want it to die, don't, woo woo woo."

Little Zhaohua didn't know what the Queen Mother meant, she only knew that she didn't want Dragonfly to die.

"Then Jiaojiao let it go."
