Stop acting, Your Majesty, the queen knows you're faking it

Chapter 656 I care about the first formal meeting
"I don't know what's the matter with your mother?"Lin Jieyu felt strange, quietly observed Chi Xinian and asked.

What business can this person find her?
This man seems to be a rude general, but after entering the palace, his control over the harem is not weak. What he can do has always been done by himself, and most of the things he can't do are handed over to the Qing concubine. Now, he can still have serious business Discuss with her, Jieyu?
Lin Jieyu thought about it for a while, but she still couldn't figure out what Chi Xinian was thinking.

At this moment, Chi Xinian stepped into the elegant room in her palace and sat down, beckoning Qingyun to put the refreshments and spices she brought on the table.

"Ma'am, this is...?" Lin Jieyu followed Chi Xinian.

"Sit down." Chi Xinian raised his chin, motioning for Lin Jieyu to sit down on the seat opposite him.

After they were seated, she continued: "I want to inquire about something with you today, so I asked the cook of Fengqi Palace to make some refreshments before I came, I don't know if it suits your taste.

"By the way, there is also this spice. This is a special product of Beiyan, and it is also one of the annual tributes they handed over this year. All the concubines in the harem have a share. Your share, I will bring it to you today. coming."

"Thank you for your love!" Lin Jieyu was overwhelmed by the flattery, but at the same time she became more and more puzzled.

The cooks of Fengqi Palace were brought into the palace with the empress, and they only cook for her. Even the emperor had to greet the empress if he wanted to taste their cooking skills, let alone such small roles as them.

As for Beiyan's year-old tribute this year, the gift is even more heavy.

Year-old tributes are year-old tributes after all, and they all have to be put into the warehouse, counted and registered in the register before being distributed uniformly.The queen sent her this one first, so that she can enjoy it in advance, and it will be a lot of trouble to deal with this account afterwards...

Desserts and spices are not precious things that are hard to come by, but the thought...

Could it be that the queen really has trouble begging her?
But what trouble can the queen have?

"You don't have to be so troubled." Xu Lin Jieyu's emotions leaked out when she was surprised, and Chi Xinian immediately said, "I just heard from Your Majesty that the Empress Dowager may be returning to the palace soon, thinking that you are familiar with her old man , I will come to inquire with you in advance to find out its preferences.

"You also know that although I'm in the middle palace, I haven't officially met her old man. If she really wants to go back, this first meeting...can't leave a bad impression, right?"

"How does Your Majesty know that the Empress Dowager is coming back?" Lin Jieyu was surprised. My aunt had only mentioned this matter to her in private, so others probably didn't know about it.

"Of course it's because midsummer is here, and there are more and more mosquitoes in the mountains. Your Majesty said that the queen mother doesn't like mosquitoes the most. She won't be able to survive this scorching summer in the mountains. I guess she will return soon." Chi Xinian didn't panic. Busy explained.

"That's true..." Lin Jieyu thought to herself, what the queen said was right.

Her aunt has a constitution that attracts mosquitoes, but she is extremely afraid of mosquito bites.It is conceivable how powerful the mosquitoes are in the midsummer mountain forest... Your Majesty knows the biological mother well, so it is reasonable to guess like this.

Lin Jieyu thought about it carefully, and felt that what Chi Xinian said was reasonable.

So, her attention was quickly put on what Chi Xinian called "the first official meeting".

Compared with the news that "the empress dowager will return", which His Majesty will know sooner or later, she is obviously more concerned about the first meeting between the empress who is favored by the emperor and the empress dowager who is not liked by the emperor.

Everyone knows that the relationship between His Majesty and the Queen Mother is poor.

Although I don't know why Xue Dang believes that the relationship between the two parties has eased recently...but my aunt wants to dispel this rumor.
