I became an exiled convict after we got married

Chapter 81 Visiting the Palace
On the second day after getting married, it is customary to go to the palace to greet the emperor, kowtow and offer tea to the empress dowager.

Xiao Feng was still in a coma, Wan Jinlan could only go by himself.

I haven't slept well for two consecutive nights, and my eyes are a little black and blue.

After washing up, she fed Xiao Feng's breakfast first.

Since he couldn't chew, the cook in the house could only listen to the imperial physician to make some nutritious porridge for Xiao Feng, and all the ingredients were chopped into pieces.

The imperial doctor said that the prince is getting thinner and thinner, and it is best to feed him one or two more meals a day in the future.

Wan Jinlan was ready to enter the palace after feeding Xiao Feng. The sky was bright and it was getting late.

Nanny Li said: "Princess, don't worry, just eat breakfast, it will take some time for the Empress Dowager to understand you."

Wan Jinlan said with a smile: "The queen mother is thinking about the prince, and she may already be waiting in Ci'an Palace, so it's okay to take some snacks and use them on the carriage."

After entering the palace, Wan Jinlan first went to the Taiji Palace to give a big gift to the emperor, and was given a seat immediately.

Emperor Jian'an looked more than ten years older than when he was in Lishan Palace.

"How's brother Feng?"

Wan Jinlan replied respectfully: "Return to Your Majesty, the prince is still unconscious. He developed a fever last night, and when he got up in the morning, he felt cold again. He has lost a lot of weight."

Emperor Jian'an sighed, "I have ordered people to search for strange people among the people, Wan Shi, you must take good care of Brother Feng."

Emperor Jian'an warned her, rewarded her with some things, and sent her to Ci'an Palace.

The Queen Mother had indeed been waiting in Ci'an Palace for a long time. Nanny Li followed Wan Jinlan into the palace. After returning to the palace, she did not go to Taiji Palace, but went directly to Ci'an Palace.

After reporting everything about Prince Qi's residence, the queen mother nodded, "Master Wan is a virtuous and sensible person."

On the way to Ci'an Palace, Wan Jinlan met Princess Shun and the third concubine.

Concubine Shun's face was full of uncontrollable redness, Wang Minghui had a sneer on her lips, and suppressed anger in her eyes.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the atmosphere between the two sisters-in-law was unhappy.

Also, one is in the limelight, and the other is sunset.

Wan Jinlan was half a head taller than both of them, so she waited leisurely for them to come to salute.

"I've seen Aunt Huang."

She seemed to hear the sound of Wang Minghui grinding his teeth.

This voice of Aunt Huang is really damn sweet.

Princess Shun is equal to her, but because of her seniority, she has to bow to her.

There are only two people in the palace who can let her salute now.

"Are you two going to Ci'an Palace?"

Concubine Shun nodded and said with a smile: "Our lord and the third prince were sent to suppress the rebellion. When we got up this morning, I will tell my concubine to send the child to the palace to show my filial piety to my mother and concubine on behalf of the lord."

Wang Minghui on the side sneered silently. King Shun just wanted to let his son invite his father to favor him in front of the emperor during the period of suppressing the rebellion. Without him, he would have made more plans.

The three talked and walked together, Wang Minghui endured it for a long time, and finally said: "I heard that the emperor's uncle is seriously ill, and he can't even get out of the couch. I really feel sorry for the emperor's aunt, and I have to bear this when I just get married."

Wan Jinlan has established herself in the circle of aristocratic women in Beijing for many years. She was originally the daughter of the chief concubine of the Duke of Zhen. Her aunt used to be a noble concubine in the palace. Sit in the position of Princess Qi.

It can be said that Wan Jinlan has a lot of thoughts.

She was born with brocade clothes, even if she got married, she still wanted to find a man who would allow her to continue to be rich and not have to bow down to most people.

Xiao Feng's status is very good, and her appearance is also very suitable for her. She used to be proud of herself, although there have been some changes now, but what does it matter?She is still Princess Qi.

Wan Jinlan said with a smile: "I don't need to worry about my concubine's life. Seeing that the third concubine looks good now, I feel relieved. It seems that the third concubine has not been affected by the events of the past few days. That's fine, after all, it's useless to think too much."

Wang Minghui was run off by Concubine Shun before, and now she is run on by Wan Jinlan, her angry face is distorted.

"Wan Jinlan, what are you proud of? I heard that King Qi is about to die. It is a joy for you to enter the mansion early, and you will inevitably be a widow in the future."

"Presumptuous, give Aijia a slap."

No one knew why the Empress Dowager was not in Ci'an Palace, but at the corner of the palace road.

Wang Minghui's complexion changed drastically from being frightened, and she hurriedly knelt down, "My daughter-in-law made a mistake, and the empress dowager forgives her."

Princess Shun let out a sigh of relief, thankful that she was still polite to Wan Jinlan today.This Wang Minghui is an idiot, as long as the queen mother is still there, Wan Jinlan cannot offend her.In the past, Wang Minghui was known as a talented woman in Kyoto, but now, it seems that this brain is really not very smart.

"The third concubine, Wang, doesn't practice eloquence, slaps her mouth for thirty, and returns to the mansion to reflect. In the future, she will not be allowed to enter the palace without summons."

The Empress Dowager coughed a few times, her face flushed with anger.

Wan Jinlan stepped forward to support the Queen Mother, and patted her on the back, "Your Majesty, don't be angry, my daughter-in-law believes that auspicious people have their own fortune, and the prince will wake up."

The age of the queen mother is not much different from her grandfather's, both of which are gray at the temples, but her grandfather's body looks much healthier than the pampered queen mother because of martial arts.

Back at Ci'an Palace, Wan Jinlan kowtowed and offered tea, and after receiving the reward, he sat next to the Empress Dowager's lower left hand.

The queen mother took off the emerald green jade bracelet from her hand, patted her hand, "Thank you for your hard work."

Wan Jinlan smiled and said: "It's not hard at all. My daughter-in-law hopes that the prince will wake up early. As long as he can wake up, my daughter-in-law will not feel hard at all."

Sitting opposite, Princess Shun looked at the harmony between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and was a little envious for a while.Compared with Concubine Chen Shu's constant advice to her, the Empress Dowager's attitude towards Wan Jinlan was as close as a mother and daughter.But thinking of the rumored King Qi who was about to die, Princess Shun's heart calmed down a lot.

After Princess Shun greeted the Queen Mother, she left wisely.

Seeing the Empress Dowager looking tired, Wan Jinlan said: "My daughter-in-law often rubs and loosens her body for grandma in the boudoir, why not rub her for the empress today."

The Empress Dowager looked calm, "You worked hard yesterday too, it doesn't matter about Ai Jia's body."

Wan Jinlan still got up and stood beside the queen mother, and pressed the queen mother's temples with moderate strength.

The Empress Dowager closed her eyes and her complexion became more relaxed.

After a stick of incense, the Empress Dowager opened her eyes, sat up straight, heard the stringed song and knew the elegance, Wan Jinlan sat back in a good manner.

"You are filial."

Wan Jinlan said with a smile: "The queen mother must take good care of her body. When the prince wakes up and enters the palace and sees the queen mother not in good spirits, he will blame the daughter-in-law for not serving her wholeheartedly."

The queen mother beckoned, "Wanshi, come here."

Wan Jinlan didn't understand what it meant, and came closer.

The Queen Mother took down a simple but delicate wooden hairpin from her head, and after Wan Jinlan squatted down, she personally put it on her bun.

The eyes of a nanny standing on the side flickered, and then she lowered her eyes carefully.

At this time, Wan Jinlan felt that she had known each other at this time, and she didn't know if this hairpin was as unique as the one her aunt gave her.
