Chapter 42 The Empress Dowager Summons
"Tomorrow, I will make preparations. I will enter the palace to pay my respects to the emperor's grandmother. By the way, let the emperor's grandmother bring me into the palace to have a meal together." Situ Xi instructed Long Yi.

"Yes."

The next day, Situ Xi appeared in the Empress Dowager's Ningshou Palace early in the morning, which surprised the Empress Dowager, "Xi'er, why are you here?"

"It's been a long time since I came to see Grandma Huang, so I went to the palace to pay my respects to Grandma Huang."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the queen mother said cautiously, "Xi'er, the imperial grandmother appointed the daughter of the left prime minister Su Molin to be the crown princess for you. Do you blame grandma in your heart?"

Situ Xi looked calm, unable to tell whether he was happy or unhappy, "Grandson knows that you are doing it for my own good, so why would he blame you?"

The queen mother held his sign language and said earnestly, "In short, Xi'er, the imperial grandmother will not harm you, and Su Jiayan will be the most suitable girl for you."

"Grandson will remember the words of the emperor's grandmother." Situ Xi didn't dare to reveal his true thoughts, but only responded vaguely.

"By the way, today Su Jiayan happened to enter the palace to pay her respects to Concubine De. The Ai family called her over. You two should get to know each other first. It would be even better if you can improve your relationship." The queen mother looked at her most distressed grandson expectantly, "You return to Beijing this time Your health is getting worse and worse, and the emperor's grandmother is really afraid that you will not be able to make it through, and I hope that your wedding with Su Jiayan will be happy and your health will recover."

After all, he was still worried about his unhappiness. The queen mother explained all kinds of reasons without any trace. .”

Seeing that he understood so well, the queen mother felt even more uncomfortable, and said nonuo, "No matter what, the imperial grandmother wishes you to be happy."

"In this case, the imperial grandmother called her to Ningshou Palace, but I don't want to face her face to face, why don't I hide in the side hall and observe her secretly."

"Alright."

"Aunt Yang, send someone to Dexin Hall to call Su Jiayan here." The queen mother ordered to the confidant maid beside her.

When Su Jiayan received the news from Aunt Yang, she didn't understand why she just came from Ningshou Palace and then passed, but she obediently complied.

"Su Jiayan sees the Queen Mother."

"Good boy, get up and sit next to Ai's family." The queen mother beckoned lovingly, she obediently walked over and sat down, feeling a little uneasy.

"In 20 days, you are going to marry the prince. After thinking about it, the Ai family decided to send two nuns to teach you the etiquette and palace rules, so as not to make mistakes. I forgot to tell you before and called you back. "

"Thank you Queen Mother for your kindness."

Seeing that there was no expression of dissatisfaction on Su Jiayan's face, the Empress Dowager's tone became serious, "Jiayan, if you tell the Ai family the truth, will you feel resentful because Ai's family assigned you to the crown prince? After all There are rumors that the prince will not survive the end of this year."

How is it possible not to complain?No matter who is forcibly married, she must be unhappy, and she doesn't even know whether the prince is round or flat.

However, this is a dynasty where the imperial power is supreme, and such rebellious words will not do any good other than causing death, so she can only respond against her will, "It is my daughter's blessing to be able to marry the prince. The queen mother also knows that my father has been in a coma now , I have lost my mother a long time ago, and I am no different from an orphan girl. Now that I am the crown prince, the little girl dare not have the slightest complaint."

The queen mother laughed with satisfaction, "The Ai family knew that you were a sensible person, and you didn't miss it. Don't worry, the Ai family will never let you be wronged after marrying the prince. Except for the dowry bestowed by the emperor, the Ai family will never let you be wronged." In addition, I will reward you ten thousand taels of gold, ten boxes of silk and satin, one hundred acres of fertile land, and two Zhuangzi."
