After being reborn with mind-reading skills, the medical concubine burst into flames

Chapter 196 Not Free
"Hey, don't praise me."

"The empress dowager is humble, this concubine is not flattery, but a compliment from the bottom of my heart."

"Okay, you kid, you're the only sweetheart."

Zheng Xiaxia smiled, "Queen Mother, I wish you New Year's greetings."

"Get up, get up, we are all a family, so there is no need to be polite." The queen mother looked at Zheng Xiaxia with great joy.

"Well, thank you, Queen Mother."

The queen mother glanced at Zheng Xiaxia and asked, "Xiaxia, why have you lost so much weight?"

When Zheng Xiaxia heard the Queen Mother's question, she quickly touched her face.

Only then did she realize that she had lost a lot of weight. No wonder the emperor would say that she was so beautiful after seeing it.

Zheng Xiaxia cursed inwardly, "Damn Qi Mingzhi, you made me lose weight, and I have to teach this bastard a lesson when I go back."

"Mother, how can I lose weight? I haven't eaten for a while, so I lost weight." Zheng Xiaxia lied, not wanting to say such a shameful thing.

"Oh, really? Aijia remembers that when you came to Aijia last time, you ate two bowls of rice."

"Hehe, I don't know about this either. I ate two bowls of rice when I came last time, but I vomited it out before I finished it."

"Oh? Then are you full or stuffed?"

"Uh, I was full, but I threw up when I was full."

"Okay, good boy, it's okay. When you eat in the future, eat less. If you eat too much, it will be bad for your stomach." The queen mother said kindly.

"Okay, my son wants to care about the Queen Mother."

"Uncle."

"Well, Xia Xia, you are also very beautiful today."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment."

"Okay, Xia Xia, go and get ready, I'll take you to see the empress dowager."

"Yes, the concubine is resigning."

The empress dowager watched the emperor leave with Zheng Xiaxia, her eyes sparkled.

She thought to herself, this Zheng Xiaxia is a smart person, not only knows how to please herself, but also knows how to please the emperor.

In this case, for myself and the emperor, it can be said to be beneficial but not harmful.

Zheng Xiaxia followed the emperor to the outside of the Queen Mother's room.

Zheng Xiaxia saw Qi Mingzhi who was chatting with the queen mother, Zheng Xiaxia snorted coldly in his heart, hum, this Qi Mingzhi is chatting so vigorously with the queen mother, it's really disgusting.

"Join the Empress Dowager, join the Emperor's Uncle." Zheng Xiaxia saluted respectfully.

"Xia Xia, come and sit next to Ai's family." The queen mother greeted warmly.

"The concubine obeys."

The queen mother and Zheng Xiaxia sat down, the emperor sat on the other side, and next to Zheng Xiaxia sat Qi Mingzhi. It was very strange for these three people to sit together.

"Xia Xia, how have you been lately? Have you eaten on time?" The queen mother asked with concern, for fear that Zheng Xiaxia would not have enough to eat.

"Empress Dowager, I have eaten on time according to your instructions. Look at my body, I have gained a lot of weight." Zheng Xiaxia patted her chest and said.

"Really? Let's take a look at Aijia." The queen mother looked at Zheng Xiaxia carefully.

"Well, it's true that you have gained a lot of weight. It's not like the last time you came to Ai's house. Have you grown taller now?" the Queen Mother asked.

"Well, what the queen mother said is very true. These days, the concubines have followed the orders of the queen mother, eating on time, exercising on time, and exercising every day."

"Okay, okay, the Ai family can rest assured." The Queen Mother nodded in satisfaction.

The Queen Mother said, glanced at Qi Mingzhi, and said to Qi Mingzhi: "Mingzhi, look, your Xia Xia has gained so much weight, and the Ai family has also made a lot of delicious food for Xia Xia these days. If you eat a lot, your body will gradually get better, so you have to cherish Xia Xia."

"Yes, Queen Mother."

"By the way, Xia Xia, you're still used to living in the house recently."

"Well, I'm fine. I live in the Prince's Mansion. I have endless meals every day, and there are many maids serving me. I live a leisurely life every day."

"Really? The Ai family thought you didn't like this place. Although it's good, it always lacks human touch." The Queen Mother said with some regret.

"Queen, I know you are worried about me, and I also know that you are doing it for the emperor's benefit. I don't blame you." Zheng Xiaxia understands the Queen Mother's intentions.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, Xia Xia, Ai's family is not feeling well these days, and I can't take care of you personally. Are you still used to it here? If you are not used to it, you can tell Ai's family." The Queen Mother asked with concern with.

"Thank you Empress Dowager for your concern. My wife is doing well here. The Empress Dowager doesn't have to worry about my wife. She will take good care of herself and don't bother the Empress Dowager."

"You girl, how can you say such polite words?" The queen mother was very upset to see Zheng Xiaxia being so out of touch.

"Empress Dowager, the minister's wife dare not."

Zheng Xiaxia bent down slightly, "Oh, look at you, you're getting stiff again."

"Yes."

"Okay, Aijia, no matter what you are not used to here, as long as you are happy."

"Yes, thank you queen."

"By the way, Mingzhi, what's the matter with you bringing Xia Xia here this time?"

"Oh, it's okay, I just want to see the Queen Mother and stay with the Queen Mother."

"The Ai family hasn't seen Mingzhi for a long time. Mingzhi, you can take a walk in the garden with Ai's family. Xia Xia, you can go back and rest first. Wait a minute, Mingzhi will send someone to call you." The Queen Mother ordered Qi Mingzhi.

"Yes."

Qi Mingzhi replied.

"Okay, ma'am, the court lady is going back first." Zheng Xiaxia bid farewell to the queen mother.

"OK, all right."

"Uncle Emperor, the minister's wife has resigned."

"Um."

After Zheng Xiaxia left, Qi Mingzhi and the queen mother went for a walk in the garden. At this time, the sky was snowing like goose feathers.

"Empress Dowager, you look good in this dress." Qi Mingzhi took a white fox fur cloak and put it on for the Empress Dowager.

"Thank you Mingzhi, Aijia has never worn such a thick cloak before."

"That's right, your body is golden, how can you wear this kind of clothes, I gave you this cloak to keep you from the cold." Qi Mingzhi smiled.

"Mingzhi, the Ai family sees that you are very satisfied with this child Xia Xia." The queen mother was very pleased to see the two people so affectionate.

Qi Mingzhi didn't deny it, "Well, she is a very nice girl."

"You are not bad, Aijia thinks you are also very good."

"Yes, Aunt Huang."

"Okay, you don't have to be too nervous, this child Xia Xia is pure-minded and won't bully you."

"Aunt Huang, I know that I will treat her well." Qi Mingzhi promised earnestly.

The Queen Mother and Qi Mingzhi were walking in the garden, chatting and laughing, and before they knew it, it was past lunch time.

Qi Mingzhi and the Queen Mother walked to the bedroom together.

"Mingzhi, are you comfortable living here?" The queen mother suddenly asked, after all, it is the palace, which is heavily guarded.

After living for so many years, she still feels restricted and not free.
