Chapter 434
King Shou was stroking his beard and thinking, which concubine or princess would sit in such a sedan chair, and it didn't look like a royal sedan chair.
The sedan chair was covered with brocade cloth on all sides, only a small window was left, and the curtain was half drawn, revealing a side face.
King Shou squinted his eyes to see far away, his vision was blurry, and it was difficult to distinguish for a while.
King Shou asked his followers, "Do you recognize who that is?"
The entourage said: "Probably some lady from the imperial court."
After the sedan chair entered the harem and disappeared without a trace, King Shou was strolling in the imperial garden when a young eunuch hurried over and sighed as soon as he saw him: "Old lord, you are here, King Yin Wu is here now!" Are you out of the palace?"
King Shou said: "He should still be discussing matters in the imperial study, why are you in such a hurry?"
The little eunuch patted his kneecaps anxiously, and blurted out: "The servant was sweeping the back garden just now, and saw a sedan chair enter the harem. After inquiring, I found out that it was the empress dowager who announced Princess Yin Wu to the palace. I don't know the king of Yin Wu But knowing this, this servant came out to send a letter."
There are so many people in the palace, it's hard to keep it completely airtight.
And the eunuchs and maids in the palace selectively reported the news they got to some powerful people, so they might get some benefits from it.
This is very common in the palace.
What's more, it was King Yin Wu who was closely related this time.None of the courtiers in the palace wanted to hug King Yin Wu's thigh.
Therefore, it is not difficult to understand that the eunuch rushed to report the news as soon as he found out.
Now everyone in the palace knows that there is a Miss Xie Chuying next to the Queen Mother, who was selected by the draft.It is obvious that the queen mother wants to point her to King Yin Wu as his concubine.
Not only the harem knew, but also the previous dynasty had speculated like this.
Although King Shou doesn't care about government affairs, he is also a member of the royal family, so he has heard of it.
King Shou said: "The Empress Dowager announced Princess Yin Wu into the harem at this moment, I'm afraid she was hiding it from King Yin Wu. I heard that Princess Yin Wu is pregnant with Liujia. If something happens at this time, it will be irreversible."
The little eunuch anxiously said: "No! How good this is, my lord, the slaves in the imperial study room are having trouble, please help me to inform King Yin Wu!"
King Shou said solemnly, "Don't worry, leave this matter to me."
Everyone knows that King Shou is a kind and prestigious old prince. He puts peace first in everything and has really helped resolve many disputes and conflicts.
Not only the royal family, but also the ministers of the court and the central government will be the first to think of asking him to come out as a peacemaker if there is a quarrel.
So when encountering such a thing, he will definitely not stand by.
Moreover, Princess Yin Wu is pregnant, if the queen mother is not serious, the consequences will be serious.
So King Shou took his entourage to the imperial study.
In this compartment, the sedan chair was lowered in front of the Empress Dowager's palace gate.
The father-in-law said with a long voice: "Please."
Chongyi helped Meng Yan out, looked up at the standing palace, and walked in with the eunuch leading the way.
At that time the Empress Dowager was in the inner hall, with Xie Chuying beside her, pinching her shoulders and beating her back.
The eunuch came in to report, and the queen mother ordered Meng Yan to be brought in.
The queen mother sat on the golden phoenix chair, took Xie Chuying's hand, let her sit beside her, squinted her eyes and watched the pregnant woman slowly walk into the inner hall.
I saw that she was dressed decently, neither plain nor extravagant, her face was neither overpowering nor enchanting, and the expression on her face was gentle and calm.
But at best, she is just an illegitimate daughter who grew up in the countryside. Compared with Xie's daughter, she is completely different.
The father-in-law who led the way came forward and reported, saying that Meng Yan was inconvenient, so he kindly agreed to allow the maid beside her to follow her into the palace.
The Empress Dowager glanced at Meng Yan and Chongyi, waved her hands and said, "Forget it, it's hard work to enter the palace with this body, so it's fine if there are more people to follow, how can the Ai family blame me?"
The father-in-law retreated to one side.
Meng Yan's stature was really inconvenient, so with Chongyi's support, she bowed to the Queen Mother and said: "Minutes see the Queen Mother."
She has gone from a society where everyone is equal to a society where everyone is judged by respect and inferiority; the differences between people are now fully reflected in this palace.
But since she lives here, she must do as the Romans do.
Then the queen mother looked at Meng Yan carefully with a smile, and said kindly: "When Ai's family got up this morning, they ordered someone to announce you. Until now, Ai's family changed clothes and washed, finished their breakfast, and went to the Buddhist hall to recite for a while. Buddhist scriptures, I just waited for you to come. You really made the Ai family wait so long."
The subject changed, and he couldn't tell whether he liked it or not, but he said, "But you are much better than what Aijia expected."
However, the eunuch who was holding his whisk beside him reminded: "Minutes need to salute when they meet the Queen Mother."
The so-called salute means you need to kneel down and salute.
In normal times, Chongyi would have jumped up and down.
But the situation is different now, and she also knows not to act on impulse.
Chongyi clasped her fists coldly and said, "The concubine is inconvenient and cannot kneel down to salute. I also ask the queen mother to forgive me."
The Empress Dowager said: "Now that you are pregnant with the heir of Prince Yin Wu, even if you meet the Ai family, the Ai family will not allow you to kneel and salute at will. Those rules will be exempted, and the heirs are the most important thing in everything."
Then he ordered the eunuch next to him: "Give me a seat."
The eunuch moved a seat and placed it beside Meng Yan.
Seeing this, the Empress Dowager said again: "Put soft cushions on the seats."
The eunuch threw another layer of imperial brocade cushions on the seat.
The Queen Mother said peacefully, "Sit down and talk."
The palace people then sent hot tea and snacks to the table.
Meng Yan sank down, knowing that the more amiable the queen mother was, the more careful she had to deal with it.
Imagine being able to defeat the Six Palaces and finally sit in the position of the Queen Mother, what kind of trouble could there be?
Perhaps the various conspiracies and tricks she has seen in this deep palace are much more than what others have seen in a few lifetimes outside.
So even though she knew that the queen mother in broad daylight would not do anything to her, Meng Yan still didn't dare to be careless.
As for what they are doing today, they all know each other well.
The queen mother asked aloud: "Is it possible to eat early before entering the palace? If you have an empty stomach, it is not good for the child. You can try this refreshment."
Meng Yan replied: "Thank you, Empress Dowager, the daughter of the people has had breakfast before coming."
The Empress Dowager leaned on her golden phoenix soft chair, with a lazy expression, as if she was gossiping, she pointed to Chongyi and said: "The Ai family just heard her calling you the princess, do you know why you are the princess? "
Meng Yan said: "Please make it clear, Queen Mother."
The eunuch next to him got the signal, bowed and replied: "It needs to be announced to the world, it needs to be respectfully reported to God, it needs to be published in the clan genealogy, and the emperor and empress dowager need to personally approve it."
In this way, Meng Yan doesn't take anything at the moment.
It's just that this topic ends, the queen mother just wanted her to understand her current situation, but she didn't say anything to embarrass her.
