After marrying a powerful minister, the female partner was pampered

Chapter 200 Return to the Capital
After watching her go in, Lu Xingzhi turned and left.

The Empress Dowager's car is very spacious and the interior decoration is also very luxurious.

"The Queen Mother." Qiao Jingjing saluted.

"Sit down." The Queen Mother said.

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Qiao Jingjing sat down.

The eldest princess handed her the playing cards and said, "You will fight the landlord after you come to godmother."

Qiao Jingjing nodded, shuffled the cards, and then introduced the gameplay to the Empress Dowager.

The Queen Mother was very interested.

Shangguan Xueer also looked eager to try.

When Qiao Jingjing saw it, she paused for a moment and said, "The Landlord can only be played by three people."

Shangguan Xueer's face froze, "What, only three people can play?"

The eldest princess glanced at her and said slowly and leisurely: "I, the queen mother, and Mrs. Lu, the three of us are just right."

Shangguan Xueer was extremely angry, but she didn't dare to show it, "Then I'll watch the Queen Mother play."

The Queen Mother had been attracted by Qiao Jingjing's gameplay and had no time to take care of her. She urged Qiao Jingjing: "Let's start."

"Okay." Qiao Jingjing responded.

"Airplane~"

"fry!"

"Even right~"

"Three Belts and One~"

"Wang Bang!"

That day, the imperial guards who were escorting him heard the constant sounds coming from the Queen Mother's car, and Monk Zhang Er was confused.

What are the Queen Mother and the others talking about?
After playing for a day, Qiao Jingjing found that the Queen Mother was not so scary anymore.

Especially when I think of the scene of the Queen Mother holding the cards and throwing them out, I find it quite funny.

When she arrived at the post house that day, the Queen Mother looked at her with a much gentler look. When she was about to get out of the car, she asked Aunt Jin who was waiting next to her to give her a box of pastries.

"Mrs. Lu, this bite-sized cake was made by the accompanying royal chef. The Queen Mother loves it very much." Aunt Jin added with a smile when she handed the box to Qiao Jingjing.

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Qiao Jingjing's face showed a flattered look at the right time.

"The Ai family's carriage will continue to come tomorrow." When entering the post house, the Queen Mother said.

"Yes." Qiao Jingjing responded. When she raised her eyes, the Queen Mother had already walked in. Shangguan Xueer, who was two steps behind, looked back at her with a very ugly look on her face.

Qiao Jingjing raised her eyebrows slightly.

Shangguan Xueer's face was naturally ugly.

Because she had no chance to touch cards all day today, so she could only watch from the sidelines.

She was thinking about something when her hand suddenly became empty. She looked up and saw the eldest princess taking the box in her hand.

Then, she watched helplessly as the eldest princess opened the box, picked up a piece of cake inside, put it in her mouth and took a bite, "This piece of cake tastes good.

The corner of Qiao Jingjing's mouth twitched, "Hasn't His Highness eaten?"

"I have eaten." The eldest princess nodded.

Qiao Jingjing almost rolled her eyes when she heard this.

Now that you've eaten it, why are you still trying to steal it from her?
She unceremoniously snatched the box back from her hand.

There were only a few cakes in total. She had already eaten one, and there were only five left.

"Look at your potential?" The eldest princess patted the cake crumbs in her hand, "Without me recommending you in front of the queen mother, how could you be so lucky?"

Qiao Jingjing was taking a bite of cake. When she heard this, she choked and couldn't help coughing, "Cough cough cough..."

Damn good luck!

In the Queen Mother's carriage, she played cards with the Queen Mother for a whole day and could not relax for a moment. By now, her back was sore. How dare the eldest princess say that?

If she were not the eldest princess, she would not have to do such an errand.

Just as she was complaining about the eldest princess in her heart, a warm hand suddenly reached out from behind and patted her back gently.

Smelling the familiar cold fragrance like pine branches, Qiao Jingjing knew who it was without looking back.

"Don't be so excited, right?" The eldest princess smiled half-heartedly.

Qiao Jingjing: "..."

"If your Highness has nothing else to do, I will take my wife to rest first." Lu Xingzhi looked down at the girl in his arms and said to the eldest princess.

The eldest princess sneered slightly, but didn't say anything. She nodded and walked straight away.

As soon as she left, Qiao Jingjing rolled her eyes.

What excitement?
It was obviously her words that were shocking!

Lu Xingzhi saw that she had recovered, so he held her hand and took her to her residence.

As soon as she entered the room, Qiao Jingjing drank two glasses of water, then took out a mouthful of cake and fed it to Lu Xingzhi's lips, "This is delicious. It was given to me by the Queen Mother. Try it quickly."

Lu Xingzhi shook his head, "I don't like to eat it, you can eat it."

"But it's really delicious. You must try it." Qiao Jingjing insisted that he try it.

Lu Xingzhi had no choice but to take a bite.

"Is it delicious?" Qiao Jingjing asked.

"Yeah." Lu Xingzhi nodded.

"If it's delicious, just eat it all." Qiao Jingjing took the remaining half piece and wanted to feed him more, but he refused, "I don't like it very much, please eat more."

Qiao Jingjing knew that he didn't like sweets very much, and the total with a bite of cake was only a few pieces. He wanted to leave it to her to eat, so after thinking about it, she didn't force him anymore and ate the remaining half piece.

After eating, she turned around and gave Mallow and Qingyuan a piece each.

The two maids were flattered.

Just now outside the post house, they all heard that this piece of cake was a gift from the Queen Mother, and there were only six in a box.

Unexpectedly, the lady was not willing to give food to the eldest princess, but she was willing to give it to them.

"Madam, all the slaves can share a piece." Mallow said, putting the one in her hand back into the box. Qiao Jingjing stopped her and said, "Isn't it just a snack? It doesn't have to be like this. Each of you can eat one piece. You are not allowed to share it."

Seeing this, Mallow had no choice but to eat a piece with Qingyuan alone.

"This bite is so delicious." Qingyuan praised.

"Really? I think it's delicious too." Qiao Jingjing picked up the last piece and tasted it slowly.

After having dinner and washing up, the couple rested early again.

The next day, Qiao Jingjing played cards with the Queen Mother and the eldest princess for another day.

Although I was a little tired, time passed quickly.

During this period, Shangguan Xueer almost became a transparent person.

She repeatedly wanted to replace Qiao Jingjing, but because Qiao Jingjing didn't know how to fight, she was directly rejected by the Queen Mother and the eldest princess.

"Xue'er, you watch the Ai family play, learn more on the sidelines, and then you can play with the Ai family after returning to the palace." After the Queen Mother played a straight straight, she said to Shangguan Xue'er.

Shangguan Xueer finally felt relieved after hearing this.

After returning to the capital, she was able to stay with the Queen Mother, but Qiao Jingjing found it difficult to even enter the palace.

Thinking about it this way, she felt a little more superior.

Time always flies when you have something to do
A few days later, the group arrived in the capital.

Lu Xingzhi rode up to the Queen Mother's carriage and said, "Your Majesty, we have arrived in the capital. I will escort the Queen Mother back to the palace first."

In the carriage, the empress dowager, the eldest princess, and Qiao Jingjing were playing Landlords.

Hearing this, Qiao Jingjing opened the window and looked outside, and saw a tall city gate outside. Above the city gate were engraved with the two characters "京城".

Seeing Lu Xingzhi on the side, she decisively played a card that would make her lose.

Sure enough, in the end it was the peasant queen mother and the eldest princess who won.

Qiao Jingjing consciously put a note with two big characters written on her forehead: turtle.

These are the rules of the game they have customized these days.

Whoever loses gets a note on their face.

Of course, it is impossible for the Empress Dowager to post it.

If she loses, the palace attendant will usually do it on her behalf.

The eldest princess had no scruples and stuck a note on her face even if she lost.

Not surprisingly, Qiao Jingjing's move made the Queen Mother laugh, and a smile appeared on the eldest princess' cold face.

Only Shangguan Xueer's eyes were filled with contempt.

Qiao Jingjing really looks like a clown.

Qiao Jingjing didn't care at all what she thought, she only knew that she would be free soon.

After laughing, the Empress Dowager said kindly to Lu Xingzhi outside the carriage: "Lu Aiqing, you have worked hard during this period. The Ai family is escorted by the eldest princess. You should take Jingjing back to the house first. Jingjing is also tired these days. "

Lu Xingzhi saw Qiao Jingjing with a note on her forehead, paused, saluted and thanked her, "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your consideration."

"The Queen Mother, Your Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, I will take my leave first." Qiao Jingjing saluted.

"Go ahead and come to the palace to play with the Ai family another day when you are free," the Empress Dowager said.

"Yes." Qiao Jingjing responded and was about to get off the carriage, but was held back by the eldest princess.

She didn't speak, just reached out and pulled off the note stuck to her forehead.

Qiao Jingjing was stunned for a moment, "Thank you, Your Highness."

"Go down." The eldest princess said warmly.

Qiao Jingjing nodded.

As soon as she stepped out of the carriage, she saw that Lu Xingzhi had dismounted and walked to the carriage shaft.

"Husband." Qiao Jingjing called out, and Lu Xingzhi reached out and hugged her down.

Qiao Jingjing felt warm in her heart.

Unexpectedly, after Lu Xingzhi took her out of the carriage, he did not put her down. Instead, he hugged her, went straight to their carriage, and put her into the carriage.

Lu Xingzhi then got on the carriage.

When the carriage started moving again, Qiao Jingjing yawned and lay on the man's lap, "I'll sleep for a while."

In the past few days, she had been in the carriage of the Empress Dowager, playing cards with her and the eldest princess. Although she did not do anything else, her spirit was tense and very tiring.

Lu Xingzhi gently touched her head.

After a while, Qiao Jingjing fell asleep.

After entering the city, everyone left separately.

One party is going to the imperial palace, and the other is going to the Lu Mansion.

When the carriage arrived at Lu Mansion, Qiao Jingjing was still asleep.

In front of Lu Mansion.

Mother Lu and others had already received the news that the couple would arrive in the capital today.

Early in the morning, he led people to greet him outside the mansion.

"Master and Madam, your Excellency and Madam's car has arrived." At this time, a sharp-eyed servant reported excitedly.

"Where is it?" Mother Lu was so happy that she stretched her neck and looked in the direction the servant said.

Sure enough, a carriage with the Lu Mansion's mark drove over from a distance.

"Welcome, sir and madam, back home!"

In the carriage, Qiao Jingjing, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly heard this loud and uniform shout, and was so shocked that she almost rolled off the stool. Fortunately, Lu Xingzhi hugged her.

She opened her eyes and asked blankly: "Are you home?"

Lu Xingzhi responded warmly: "Yes."

Qiao Jingjing patted her heart, "It scared me."

"Do you want me to carry you down?" Lu Xingzhi asked warmly when he saw her sleeping in a daze.
