I see You Lian is the ally

Chapter 103

It was the height of spring, when the wind was blowing and the sun was warm.

Yu Taiqing stood by the palace wall, looked up at the "Xingqing Palace" plaque above her eyes.The servant had already gone in to report. While he was standing outside waiting, he heard someone talking in the courtyard.

He had excellent hearing and listened intently, only to hear a majestic and slightly loving voice say: "I heard that you also went to the Peony Flower Banquet that day?"

This is the Queen Mother talking.

An elegant female voice replied: "Linlang has bred a new peony variety, so I'm going to have a look."

The queen mother's voice was mixed with a trace of reproach: "It's just a peony, what's so good about it. Lin Lang was brought by you. In the past, she didn't like tending flowers and trees very much."

The woman said obediently: "Understood, I won't go there in the future."

The queen mother's voice softened, and she warned: "In the future, you should stay away from going out. This time there are monsters at the Peony Banquet. Thanks to your luck, be more careful in the future."

"Where are there any monsters?" There was a hint of disdain in the woman's voice, "Any case that can't be solved, Tianshu Division will involve monsters."

"Things grow old and mature, when the sky turns against the seasons, it becomes a disaster, and when the earth turns against things, it turns into a monster. You can't say that there are no monsters in the world just because you have never seen it before." The queen mother said angrily.

"Understood." There was a hint of coquettishness in the woman's voice, she changed the subject and said, "This robe was embroidered with purple thread for two months, try it on, and it fits well. "

After a while, the queen mother's voice came again, seeming very satisfied: "The craftsmanship of the purple thread is getting better and better, much better than the embroiderers in Sixiufang in the palace today, which makes the Ai family regret letting her go with you .”

The woman smiled: "If you regret it, then call her into the palace."

"Forget it," said the queen mother slowly, "let's stay in your mansion. You will bring her to the palace in a few days, and the Ai family will personally reward her."

At this time, the servant came forward and reported that it was Mrs. Yu who wanted to see him.

The empress dowager stopped talking to the woman in an instant, only to hear the woman hum slightly, as if a little dissatisfied: "Why is he here?"

"He is the grandson of the Ai family, why can't he enter the palace to see him." The Queen Mother's voice implied a trace of reproach, she paused, and then said, "You should avoid it, it is best not to run into him."

Yu Taiqing followed the servants into the courtyard, and saw the courtyard full of pleasing flowers and trees.Turning around a crape myrtle vine, I saw that under a flowering tree in front of me, the Queen Mother was sitting on a rattan chair basking in the sun, with a chubby tabby cat lying on her lap.

There was a table in front of her with tea cups and snacks on it, and there was a rattan chair opposite the queen mother, but there was no one there.

Yu Taiqing looked around and saw two maids accompanying her, but she did not see the woman who was talking to the Queen Mother just now.

Yu Tai leaned forward to salute, bowed her head and said: "See the emperor's grandmother."

The Empress Dowager is old, her temples are full of frost, she wears a phoenix crown made of pure gold on her hair, and her face is round and plump with a hint of kindness.

"Excuse me, get up quickly, come here and let the imperial grandmother have a look." The queen mother said gently, stroking the cat on her lap one after another.

Yu Taiqing had no choice but to step forward and let the Queen Mother look her up and down.

Every time the queen mother said the words that she loved him the most, she looked at him with a loving smile on her face. However, for some reason, he always felt that there was a slight alienation in this smile, which made him feel uncomfortable.

The corners of Yu Taiqing's lips curled up into a smile, and asked, "Is the emperor's grandmother in good health recently?"

The queen mother said with a smile: "Okay, okay, everything is fine with the imperial grandmother. You child, if the grandmother doesn't summon you, you won't come to the palace to visit me."

The corner of Yu Taiqing's lips raised a faint smile: "Recently, I've been busy with work, so it's my grandson's fault that I can't visit my grandmother."

The Empress Dowager pointed to the rattan chair opposite, motioned Yu Taiqing to sit down, and said in a gentle tone, "But for the case at the Peony Banquet? If you feel embarrassed, grandma will tell His Majesty, and you will be relieved of all prisons." Job, how is it?"

Knowing that the Empress Dowager was only speaking politely, Yu Taiqing thanked her and said, "Thank you grandma for your concern, my grandson is willing to share your majesty's worries."

After Yu Taiqing finished speaking, her eyes inadvertently glanced at a robe held in the hand of Gong'e on one side.

This is a phoenix gown with large sleeves in a silky color, embroidered with large peony flowers with golden threads and green leaves, as well as colorful auspicious clouds and phoenixes, which looks dignified and dignified.

Yu Taiqing asked inadvertently: "Is the imperial grandmother trying on a new dress just now? This dress looks so unique, but is it made by the Embroidery Workshop in the palace?"

The Empress Dowager smiled slightly, and said: "Exactly. Ai's family will go to Xiangguo Temple to offer incense in two days, so they ordered Sixiufang to make clothes."

After a pause, he said again: "I went to the flower banquet a few days ago, but there is a little lady you like?"

Yu Taiqing said no.

The Empress Dowager smiled and said: "The Ai family heard that the late Zheng Zhongshu ordered the steward of Zheng Yuan's family to visit the mansion? I thought you fell in love with the little lady of Zheng's mansion."

Yu Taiqing's eyes flickered, and Nanny Qu was simply the Queen Mother's earmark, never letting go of a little thing.

He talked with the Queen Mother for a while in Xingqing Palace, and then left.Although they are called grandparents, they are just strangers whom they have only met a few times.

Mrs. Yu leaned out of Xingqing Palace, and did not leave immediately, but waited at the corner for a while.After a while, a woman in luxurious clothes and wearing a fence on her head was seen stepping out of the Xingqing Palace with a maidservant.

Yu Taiqing followed her neither far nor near, and when she came out of the palace gate, she saw her getting into Xue's carriage.

It turned out to be Xiao Sujun, the wife of the Xue family in Kaibohou Mansion and the goddaughter of the Empress Dowager.

Di Chen was waiting for Yu Taiqing outside the palace, and when he saw him coming out, he went up to him and told him, "Captain, my subordinates heard something that Mrs. Jiang's piano skills are better than Zheng Min's. One chip."

Yu Taiqing was about to bend down to get into the carriage, but she was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, and asked, "Who did you listen to?"

Di Chen said: "Now Lan'an City has spread all over the place."

Several days have passed since the Peony Flower Banquet, and the people in Lan'an City have always paid attention to which young lady Wu Jue is. Gossip people's motives.

Yu Taiqing frowned slightly, her starry eyes were full of shadows, and her face turned cold: "Di Chen, go and check, where did these words come from?"

Di Chen nodded.

As soon as Yu Taiqing returned to Tianshu Division, Chu Xian hurried in and reported: "Captain, there is good news."

"But is there any movement in the Xiao residence?"

Chu Xian said no: "Didn't you say earlier that there were wild birds in Fengyang Tower and Peony Garden, and you ordered your subordinates to send people to look for wild birds in Lan'an. The people sent by your subordinates found the wild birds. According to them, there seems to be a monster around."
