Concubine is polite

Chapter 705 Greetings to the Empress Dowager (3)

"Girl, dowager, the empress dowager announces that you will go to the Longevity Palace to pay her respects." Xi'er obviously didn't recover from such explosive news.

The expressions of Xi Yan and Lin Shuyu who heard the news were not much better.

Normally, Xiu Nu is not qualified to greet the Queen Mother.From this I also know why they were surprised.

hello?It's time and time, please hello?Is it too fake?The Queen Mother looking for herself?Why?Xiyan didn't understand.

Xiyan had contact with the Queen Mother several times in her previous life.In this life, I only saw her once from a distance, and thought I didn't need to face her again.Are you really being too naive?
"Are you right?" Xiyan swallowed.

"Slaves don't dare." Xi'er didn't want to make fun of her own head. "The father-in-law of the Longevity Palace just delivered the message."

"Xiyan..." Lin Shuyu looked at Xiyan in surprise, "Xiyan, do you also know the Queen Mother?"

Lin Shuyu couldn't figure it out, why are all the big shots in the palace related to Xiyan?

"Of course I don't know each other!" Xi Yan strongly denied.

In any case, the Empress Dowager summoned the matter urgently, so Xiyan packed up and followed Xi'er to the front of the Longevity Palace.

When Guima, who had been waiting for a long time, saw someone coming, a trace of doubt flashed across her expressionless face.Why does this girl look familiar?
"Xi Yan?"

Xi Yan didn't have the heart to care about the expression of the noble mother, so she nodded.

"Come with me." Nanny Gui walked into the palace with Xi Yan.

Xiyan has never been to the Empress Dowager's bedroom.Neither in the previous life nor in this life.

The Longevity Palace is very large and magnificent.Because the queen mother likes simplicity, there are not many furnishings.

Because of this, and because I live alone, the air smells raw and cold.The palace is very bright, but it makes people feel cold.

There is only one old man living in such a big palace, so it is full of lonely neighbors, right?

Xiyan felt that such a queen mother was quite pitiful.No matter how strong and shrewd she is, with overwhelming power, she is just a lonely old man, right?
The same is the old man.Like the mother-in-law who took care of those children in the previous life, although she was poorer, she was lively and warm.Compared with here, I must be much happier in my heart.

This is also one of the 'involuntary' Su Qiche said, right?After all, it's not cold at the top.

Standing in the hall, the queen mother turned her back to Xiyan.

Xi Yan performed a standard kneeling salute to the Queen Mother. "The daughter of the people has met the queen mother, and the queen mother is blessed and safe."

The queen turned around slowly.Looking at the woman kneeling on the ground. "Get up."

"Thank you Queen Mother." Xiyan stood up calmly.

"Raise your head and let Aijia take a look." The Queen Mother said.

Xi Yan murmured in her heart.But still had to obediently raise his head.

The Empress Dowager was still as dignified and beautiful as Xi Yan remembered.It's just that her look...

The queen mother looked at Xi Yan and slowly raised her head.With such eyebrows and eyes, the queen mother has a feeling of deja vu.

"Which family is the girl from?"

"Xiyan, a civilian girl, has a humble status and is not worthy of a virtue." Xiyan can make up anything, except her own identity.

Xi Yan?The Queen Mother had never heard of this name.This sounds like the name of a palace lady.

"Humble status?" The Queen Mother was full of puzzlement. "Since you are humble, how can you become a beautiful girl and enter the palace?"

According to our dynasty's practice, the qualifications of the beautiful women who enter the palace have been screened layer by layer.Not only the emperor's concubine had to be selected from the show girls.The selected show girls will also be married to the prince and grandson, or to marry the prince of the nearby clan and the king of the county.
