Xiangmen Concubine: The Emperor's Abandoned Concubine

Chapter 63 Matchmaking
Ruan Mianmian took the imperial decree, and said respectfully and politely: "The daughter of the people, Mu Mianmian, accepts the decree, long live my emperor!"

A smile appeared on Dequan's face, he glanced at everyone, and then at Ruan Mianmian: "By the way, Miss Mu, the empress dowager heard that the imperial concubine asked you to come to the palace to learn embroidery, and would like to meet you first. Miss Mu, please clean up." Just a minute, the servant is waiting for you outside."

She was planning to think about how to deal with this sudden situation, but Emperor Feng Zhao obviously didn't intend to give her a chance to breathe.

After Ruan Hua listened to the imperial decree with his back turned, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.The eldest lady also gave a little sigh of relief, since she is going to the palace to teach embroidery to the noble concubine, she is still in Jingling City.

As long as they are in Jingling City, there is still hope for everything.

Dequan was fully prepared, even the carriage was ready.When Ruan Mianmian went out, she couldn't help smiling when she saw the carriage.

She wanted to leave Jingling City and go outside, that is, she planned to spend these two days.After all, Feng Jiuyou's actions made her unacceptable, and the anger in her heart had not yet dissipated.

Thinking of him using mother to beat her, and thinking of the hidden weapon in his hand flying towards mother recklessly, my heart ached.

What would mother think if she knew that she was the one who wanted to kill her?
"Miss Mu, we're here."

Lian'er lifted the curtain of the car, Ruan Mianmian hid all the thoughts in her eyes, and put on that kind of smile that seemed to be nothing but nothing.

Dequan glanced at her, how could such an ordinary face become more and more dazzling.Seeing that it was getting late and the queen mother was still waiting to see Miss Mu, she smiled and said, "Miss Mu, this way please."

This is the third time she has entered the palace. Although everything is exquisite, but from the moment she entered the high wall, she felt oppressed from the bottom of her heart, with a feeling of being out of breath.

Lian'er followed her, there was anxiety in her eyes, but more curiosity.

Ruan Mianmian and Lian'er followed Dequan without asking where they were going.She is very clear about the layout of the palace.I know where this line leads to.

Finally, Dequan stopped and said with a smile, "Miss Mu, please."

A court lady had already come over to guide them, and when they arrived at Changning Palace, Ruan Mianmian knelt down respectfully with lowered eyebrows: "Minister Mu Mianmian (servant Lian'er), I have seen the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old." age!"

The Empress Dowager looked at the woman kneeling in the hall, and a look of inexplicable meaning flashed across her eyes.She smiled and said in a very loving voice, "It's Mianmian, come on, hurry up, get up quickly."

Ruan Mianmian and Lian'er got up slowly, listening to the queen mother's words, the alarm bells in Ruan Mianmian's heart rang.If you don't have anything to show your courtesy, you can either rape or steal.

Although there is nothing valuable on her that is worth stealing by the empress dowager of a country, but if there is no purpose, how can the empress dowager meet her before the imperial concubine?

Looking at Ruan Mianmian, the Queen Mother became more and more puzzled.This is the second time to look at this very unfavored and rumored fourth young lady in the prime minister's mansion so closely.

The etiquette is so thoughtful and perfect that you can't find any faults. Even though you were kneeling there just now, the temperament on your body cannot be ignored.

It was clear that she was the aloof empress dowager, and from the woman standing in the palace, one could see respect and obedience, but not the slightest bit of fear or uneasiness.

It really is very interesting that the unremarkable Fourth Miss in the Prime Minister's Mansion became famous with a beautiful picture of lotus on her birthday.

No matter what the emperor wanted to marry her to Jiuyou again, how could this woman be so simple?
Then there is her father, Prime Minister Ruan Hua.Thinking of Ruan Hua, the Empress Dowager's eyes flickered with displeasure.Planning to marry the four daughters to the four princes respectively, the Ruan family will not suffer from whoever ascends the throne in the future.

Lian'er stood there anxiously, only knowing that a pair of sharp eyes were staring at her body, making her whole body uncomfortable.

The Empress Dowager looked away from Lian'er, and then fell on Ruan Mianmian again.

Seeing her standing there neither humble nor overbearing, without any fear or uneasiness, without being inferior, she nodded slightly: "The Ai family only recently learned that Mian Mian, you have not lived in the Prime Minister's Mansion for a long time."

No matter what the Queen Mother is thinking, just tell the truth, this is what Ruan Mianmian told herself.Hearing the question, she replied in a soft voice: "Yes, the daughter of the people moved out of the prime minister's mansion after her wedding."

There was another layer of smile in the Queen Mother's eyes, she is such a smart woman.Moving out of the Prime Minister's Mansion after the wedding was telling her that she left the Prime Minister's Mansion only because of the wedding and nothing else.

But the fact is, the world knows.Her answer in this way not only protected the face of the prime minister's mansion, but also indirectly protected Jiuyou's solidarity with her.

At the same time, she also stated her position and stated the facts. She has no complaints about being kicked out of the house by Hugh, but the truth depends entirely on what the Queen Mother thinks.

How could such a woman be an unknown concubine for so many years?

The queen mother thought for a while, then glanced at the maids and eunuchs around, and motioned for them all to back down.Lian'er glanced at her young lady, and quickly retreated.

The Empress Dowager's maid stood there, and the Empress Dowager smiled and said: "Tea."

Ruan Mianmian sat down at the table, and heard the Empress Dowager say in a slightly sighing voice: "Today the Ai family invites you into the palace for two things."

Ruan Mianmian liked the empress dowager's straightforwardness.If she keeps making indirect remarks, she will probably feel uncomfortable to death.

Raising her head slightly, Ruan Mianmian looked at the Queen Mother suspiciously, waiting for her to speak.

The Empress Dowager smiled slightly, with admiration in her smile: "Your embroidery is very good, and the Empress also said that Shangyi Palace still lacks a female official."

Seeing that Ruan Mianmian did not speak, he waited for her to continue.The queen mother took a sip of tea gracefully, with a slightly melancholy smile on the corner of her mouth: "The second thing is, that child Jiuyou."

When the Queen Mother mentioned Feng Jiuyou, Ruan Mianmian's heart skipped a beat, and she cried out that it was not good.Could it be that the queen mother still intends to tie her and Feng Jiuyou together?
"The decree has arrived!"

The queen mother and Ruan Mianmian were taken aback at the same time, with surprise in their eyes.At this time in Changning Palace, how could the emperor announce the decree?

Surprised, he looked at Ruan Mianmian, and was relieved when he saw the undisguised puzzlement on her face.

I was unhappy in my heart, but the emperor had to give me face.The Queen Mother frowned, coughed lightly, and said calmly, "Come in!"

Ruan Mianmian was like an ant on a hot pot, but at the moment she was in Changning Palace, so she couldn't help but knelt down quickly, and the maid who was close to her quickly followed the Queen Mother's back gently, and then knelt down too.

The Empress Dowager took a look at Dequan who came in to announce the decree. Seeing that Dequan's frowning hand holding the decree was trembling slightly, his brows frowned again.

Although she didn't get the emperor's nod on this matter, but on his birthday that night, the emperor obviously intended to bring Jiuyou and Mu Mianmian together again.

She called Ruan Mianmian over now, firstly to talk about the embroidery work, and secondly for this matter.Now that the emperor came with the imperial decree, he leaned back a little, and said with a light brow, "Let's announce it."

Ruan Mianmian resisted the urge to jump up from the ground, the hands in the wide sleeves had already clenched into fists.

Dequan glanced at the queen mother, with a bit of fear and worry in his eyes.After a pause, a thin voice sounded in Changning Palace.
