I was coddled after teasing the insane and cold power

Chapter 3 Poor performance

Gu Qian'er followed the people to Shoukang Palace, where the Queen Mother was already waiting.

"Meet the Queen Mother."

Looking at the well-behaved people kneeling on the ground, the Queen Mother smiled, "My good boy, there is no need to be formal, get up quickly, Yun Xiu, and help the princess to sit up."

"Thank you, Empress."

After Gu Qian'er sat down, the queen mother sized her up, nodded in satisfaction, and exclaimed: "Qian'er is getting more and more beautiful." Even though she said this, she still inevitably remembered some things. Unpleasant things and people, the smile on his face faded a bit.

Gu Qian'er didn't realize it, and thanked her politely, "Thank you, Qian'er, for the compliment from the Empress Dowager."

"Aijia is telling the truth," the queen mother smiled and waved her hands, "Qian'er is a big girl now, and it's time to arrange the marriage. Does Qian'er have a crush on someone? If so, just tell the queen mother, and the queen mother will replace her." You decide."

This is just a joke, Gu Qian'er has been staying in the cold palace in the past, and even maids and eunuchs are rarely seen on weekdays, let alone those princes and grandchildren who are similar in age?What the queen mother said is just a scene.

"The queen mother is joking, Qian'er has lived in the deep palace for a long time, so how can there be any sweetheart." Gu Qian'er looked calm, "Besides, the important matter of marriage has been the advice of parents since ancient times. Everything can be decided by the queen mother."

The Empress Dowager originally meant this. She thought it would take a little effort to make people understand, but she didn't expect this girl to be clever. Now that the person has already thrown the words out, the Empress Dowager naturally cannot let go of this opportunity.

"Qian'er is so sensible, the Ai family will naturally not treat you badly, and will definitely help you find a good marriage, so that you will be rich and worry-free for the rest of your life."

"Thank you, Qian'er, for taking so much care of Qian'er." Gu Qian'er got up to thank the Queen Mother.

"Sit down, my family doesn't need to be polite."

Seeing Gu Qian'er sit down again, the queen mother pretended to ask, and it took a while before she spoke, "There are quite a few people in the court who are both good-looking and talented, but most of them are about the same age as Qian'er, and most of them are already engaged. , either too young, or too old, it is not suitable."

After she finished speaking, she still looked like she was frowning in thought. At first glance, others could really think that she was really worried about Gu Qian'er's marriage.

Seeing this, Yun Xiu on the side spoke at the right time, "Queen Mother, I think of a candidate, I don't know what the Queen Mother thinks."

"Go ahead."

With the Queen Mother's permission, Yunxiu said: "Queen Mother, I feel that the King of Xirong is very good. It is said that he is tall, mighty, brave and good at fighting. The position is still vacant so far, the princess has a beautiful face, she is really a beauty, this beauty is matched with a hero, isn't it a good story."

What Yunxiu didn't say was that this happened decades ago, and now King Xirong is over 50 years old, more than enough to be Gu Qian'er's grandfather.

As soon as Yunxiu finished speaking, the queen mother nodded immediately, "In this way, the king of Xirong is a good candidate, but what does Qian'er think?" After speaking, she looked at the person sitting there.

The queen mother's words seemed to be an inquiry, but in fact, the result had already been established. Since it could not be changed, Gu Qian'er naturally would not make things difficult for herself, so she nodded, "Qian'er is at the queen mother's order."

"Okay, since that's the case, then this matter is settled." The goal has been achieved, and the queen mother doesn't want to leave any more words. "It's getting late, and you are tired today, go back and rest."

"Yes, Empress Dowager, Qian'er will leave."

After the people left, the Queen Mother's original gentle smile disappeared completely, her face was calm, with obvious contempt and annoyance in her eyes, "Okay, let someone bring water to wash, and let someone clean the hall. "

While serving, Yun Xiu couldn't help but say, "Queen Mother, I don't understand something."

The queen mother closed her eyes, her red lips parted slightly, "Say."

"It's about marriage. How could this princess be so calm, she didn't even have the slightest reluctance on her face, and she agreed directly?"

Hearing this, the Empress Dowager snorted, "This girl is not stupid. The reason why she agreed so quickly tonight is because she only has one choice. If she doesn't go and get married, old age and death will be considered good. Instead of that, It's better to make love."

"This... this servant is stupid, and I ask the Queen Mother to give me some pointers."

"Don't talk about anything else, let's just talk about her mother and brother. Which family in the court would dare to marry such a woman? No one dares to marry, so they can only die of old age in the cold palace?" The queen mother's eyes were full Is disdainful.

Mentioning Gu Qian'er's mother and elder brother, Yunxiu was subconsciously startled, and then realized that the truth is exactly as the Queen Mother said, rather than going back to that gloomy, cold and lifeless place, it is better to go and get married, at least food and clothing. There will be no more shortages, and we can live well.

After thinking about this, Yun Xiu nodded, "With her status, she is still able to get married. The empress dowager and the emperor are really kind."

"It's also her blessing. The late emperor didn't have many children, so besides Ruo'er, she is the only one to marry."

"Yes."
-
The next day, the envoys sent by Xirong heard that there was a change in the choice of relatives, and they were very unhappy, thinking that Jiang Chao deliberately humiliated, but after seeing Gu Qian'er's portrait, the envoys were silent for a long time, and finally nodded in agreement.

When this matter got to the Queen Mother's ears, the Queen Mother sneered, "It's the same as her mother, it's a foxy thing!"

Seeing the empress dowager's face suddenly gloomy, Yun Xiu quickly lowered her head, "Queen dowager calm down."

"Calm down, what's there to be angry about, the Ai family, it's too late for the Ai family to be happy." The Empress Dowager said expressionlessly.

But after thinking about it, that bitch is already dead, not only dead, but also implicated the whole family, her son's family has long since died, and now her daughter can't escape the fate of getting married, and she will also die in a foreign land in the future .

But what about her, her son became the emperor, her daughter is also a princess of golden branches and jade leaves, and she herself has become a queen mother. She has a lofty status and enjoys endless glory and wealth. People are much stronger...

Thinking of this, the Queen Mother became happy again.

It was only in the morning that I learned that Xirong had no objection, and in the afternoon the imperial decree for Gu Qian'er to go to Xirong to get married came down.

The queen mother took the imperial decree, looked at it again and again, and couldn't stop the smile on her face. Even the face that looked at Gu Qian'er felt pleasing to the eye, "Don't worry, Qian'er, your dowry, the queen mother has already done it." Order the House of Internal Affairs to prepare a lot, and even if you arrive in Xirong, you will not be made to suffer." After speaking, he put the imperial decree back into her hands.

Gu Qian'er held the imperial decree in her hand, "Yes, Qian'er is very grateful to the queen mother, if there is nothing else, Qian'er will leave first."

"Go."

After leaving the palace gate, Gu Qian'er thought of the happy appearance of the Empress Dowager just now, looked down at the imperial decree in her hand, and hummed in her heart, a imperial decree satisfied everyone, it was perfect...
