Chapter 159 Queen Mother: Good boy!

"Mother Ping."

"See you, Empress Zhaoyi," Grandma Ping blessed herself with a peaceful smile, "Empress Dowager, please come in."

Gu Wanyu helped her up with her own hands and said, "Mom, I'm here to help."

"Yesterday, I accidentally saw that grandma's knee pads seemed a little old. I happened to have a few palace maids around me who were good at needlework, so I ordered them to make a few new pairs for grandma. They are not expensive things. At least, I would like to ask you to help me. Don’t dislike it, Qingdai!”

Qing Dai took out a stack of neat plain knee pads from her arms and handed them to Aunt Ping with both hands, "Mommy."

"Oh, this, this..." Aunt Ping was extremely surprised, obviously she didn't expect that she would give this,
In fact, there are very few people she needs to kneel to now, but the emperor and empress,
But even the emperor would, for the sake of the queen mother, spare her from kneeling, let alone others.
It can be said that at her current position, she no longer needs to kneel down.

But she still maintains the habit of wearing knee pads.

First, a few days ago, I accompanied the Queen Mother to cry for the late Emperor, which required me to kneel day and night.

Secondly, in the early years, I was cautious with the Queen Mother and knelt too much.

In the ice and snow, severe cold and scorching heat, my knees are now damaged. Every winter and rainy weather, my knees feel like needle pricks.
Wearing knee braces can provide some relief, so I haven't taken them off since.
Two days ago, she discovered that the one she was wearing was a little worn. She wanted to replace it with a new one, but found that the ones she had made in the early years had been used up.
But my old eyesight is dim and I can’t recognize the needle, so I can’t ask Da to go to the embroidery room to find the embroiderer.
Find the maids from Shoukang Palace who specialize in making needlework for the Queen Mother, but you are afraid of delaying their errands.

Although as long as she opened her mouth, there were many people fawning over her, but she just didn't want to betray her favor and cause trouble again.

What's more, now that the Queen Mother has just become the Queen Mother, and the seasons are changing, they have too much work to do, and they are already working day and night.

I just want to spend money in private to ask those little palace ladies to make a few pairs for me.
As a result, before it was too late, he was sent to take Gu Wanyu into the palace, so he had to make do with errands first.

I didn't expect it, but in the short two hours of contact yesterday, Ning Zhaoyi realized that,
Let the palace maids around you make so many in one day,
After a cursory look, I saw about seven or eight pairs.
It's enough to last her another two years.

Really careful and appropriate,

What's more, it's just a small item like knee pads. Even if others see it, it won't be a big deal.
But it solved her urgent need.

Aunt Ping held the stack of knee pads tightly in her hand, and felt a warm current in her heart.
The smile on her face was filled with gratitude, and the eyes she looked at Gu Wanyu were not the same as when she looked at other concubines in the past, but were more sincere.
"To be honest with you, my Majesty, this is exactly what I need now, so I don't want to be polite to you and accept it shamelessly."

"What are you talking about, Mammy?" Gu Wanyu smiled innocently and continued to hold Mammy Ping's hand and walk forward.

"It's just a small thing. If I feel sorry for you, if I accidentally make the Queen Mother unhappy later, just help me and say a nice word."

Aunt Ping smiled lightly and shook her head, her eyes looking at her became softer and softer.
"The Queen Mother is so kind, well-behaved and lovable, how can she displease the Queen Mother?"

As he spoke, he entered the main hall.
Aunt Ping patted her hand and took a step forward, "Queen Mother, Ning Zhaoyi is here."

Gu Wanyu straightened her clothes, leaned down and bowed,
"My concubine, Zhaoyi Gu, has paid a visit to the Queen Mother. I wish her good health."

As soon as he leaned down, he was stopped by the Queen Mother.

"Good boy, you are heavy, so you don't need to salute. Get up quickly."

When he saw that she seemed to insist on saluting, he looked at Aunt Ping again and said, "Ping An, go help her up."

Aunt Ping helped her up as she was told, "Ning Zhaoyi, don't worry, our Queen Mother is the most considerate and caring of the younger generation. She doesn't have so many false etiquette."

Gu Wanyu smiled, then she didn't insist anymore and straightened up.
Then he stood quietly, his eyelids drooping, and his gaze fell on the Queen Mother's hand, letting her look at him.

After observing for a while, the Queen Mother secretly nodded and waved to her.

"Come, sit next to the Ai family, and bring the second princess over to show the Ai family."

Hong Xiu, who was holding the infant baby behind her, was hesitant and looked at her involuntarily. However, Gu Wanyu smiled and sat on the fire bed opposite the Queen Mother and said with a natural expression:

"Hongxiu, what are you doing standing still? Why don't you quickly bring the second princess over?"

"Yes." Hong Xiu then stepped forward and held the baby lower so that the Queen Mother could see it.

"Oh, look at this chubby little face. Look at it, you are blessed and safe."

The Queen Mother stretched out her hand to gently caress Sister Ying's little face and greeted Aunt Ping,

Aunt Ping hurriedly came forward. Although she was riding in the same carriage as Sister Ying that day,
But at that time, she was only focused on shock and taking care of Gu Wanyu, who was fainting from the carriage. Before she had time to take a look,
Therefore, this was also the first time she saw the second princess.
"What the Queen Mother said is that the second princess Yuxue is cute and has a good figure."

At least she looks much healthier than the eldest princess who often consults the imperial doctor. This shows that Ning Zhaoyi can raise children.

Gu Wan looked over with a smile on her face, and then she saw the Queen Mother clearly.

Although he is over forty years old, he is wearing a slightly old-fashioned purple phoenix robe.

But her well-maintained and beautiful face makes her look like a woman in her thirties.

You can still vaguely see the stunning beauty of her youth.

As the saying goes, a beauty who can withstand the test of time must have been a gorgeous flower back then.

Just by looking at it like this, she could imagine how the virtuous concubine stood out as a palace maid among the three thousand harems of the late emperor and was favored to give birth to Song Jingzhang.

Although he is now in a high position, his aura is not overwhelming, and the soft smile on his lips adds a bit of peace and kindness.

"Indeed, this child is indeed blessed. Ning Zhaoyi can also raise a child."

The Queen Mother nodded in agreement with Aunt Ping's words and even praised her.

Gu Wanyu came to her senses,

The prepared words went around in my mind, and I stood up suddenly and knelt on the ground.

The series of actions shocked the Queen Mother and Grandma Ping, and they were unable to stop them in time.

"What's going on? Why did you suddenly kneel down?" The Queen Mother straightened up.

Aunt Ping also advised: "Yes, if Ning Zhaoyi has something to do, you might as well get up and say it. The ground is cold and you have two bodies. Be careful of the little prince in your heart." After saying that, she came to help her.

Gu Wanyu shook her head firmly and said, "The Queen Mother, please forgive me, but I have something to report."

Why do you have to kneel down to say something?

The Queen Mother's years of immersed experience in the harem were not in vain. It was immediately obvious that what she wanted to report was not trivial.

At that moment, he stopped teasing Sister Ying. He waved Hong Xiu away and gave Aunt Ping another look.

Aunt Ping understood and waved all the maids and eunuchs in the palace to leave.
Qingdai also followed everyone out of the hall, but the red sleeves holding Sister Ying remained untouched.
