Chapter 94 Dowry (1)
"It should be to go to the imperial dining room to have an early meal. What would the Queen Mother want to eat in the morning? Let the maidservant tell Eunuch Zhang."

"How old is Eunuch Zhang?"

"It's sixty."

"It's a little bit of money from Ai's family, and Eunuch Zhang took it back to his hometown."

"The Queen Mother?" Auntie looked shocked, she looked up to see the calm expression of the Queen Mother, and immediately lowered her head again.

"The three princes have all come to ask about the affairs of the Ai family's palace. It's only a matter of time before the emperor comes. Letting Eunuch Zhang go is also for his own good."

"The empress dowager is merciful."

The queen mother got up, and the aunt quickly stepped forward to hold her hand.The Empress Dowager walked to the flower hall and sat down, and asked: "The empress and all the concubines have not yet come to Ai's house to pay their respects, have they?"

"The Empress has not arrived yet, but Concubine Chang has arrived. However, Concubine Chang is always the first to arrive every day." The aunt replied.

"Order. This morning, the empress and concubines don't need to come to Ai's house to pay their respects. Ai's house wants to be quiet this morning." After finishing speaking, the queen mother waved her hand.

"Your servant obeys." The aunt blessed her body and withdrew.

When she was about to retreat to the door, the Queen Mother said softly: "By the way, let Huacai come to Ai's house. Ai's family has something to say to her."

Li Hua slept well all night, because the whole thing was done almost seamlessly.That Eunuch Zhang was really afraid that he would lose Li Min, so he simply cooperated with them and told the queen mother that Li Min would not enter the palace by himself.Yesterday afternoon, seeing the black faces of the empress dowager and the emperor made her feel happy.

Presumably in this way, the mother and sister in the family should also feel at ease.

Speaking of Master Lu, ordinary people may not know about it, but in the ears of many wealthy families, even some concubines in the palace know something about it.Knowing this person, reliable in doing things, and where is the reliability, can be described as a model of cruelty.

For those who are uncertain about which family or household, ask Lord Lu to kidnap and do it, and it will definitely be settled.

In fact, Li Hua had never really met Lord Lu.However, he knew that as long as the money was enough, Master Lu basically had all the errands that he would not miss.

When Mrs. Wang hurriedly asked someone to pass a note into the palace to tell her about Li Min, she immediately thought of this man named Lu Ye.

I haven't been in contact with Master Lu, but I know how to contact Master Lu, sent someone, and packed enough money to send it to Master Lu.When Li Min really disappeared, she knew it was done.

Next, Master Lu tore up the ticket or not, but it was none of her business.Anyway, even if the ticket is torn up, it is impossible for Lord Lu to be caught.If Master Lu cannot be caught, no one will be able to confess that she is the mastermind behind the scenes.

If Lord Lu really broke the ticket, that's fine, it's over.So, after waking up in the morning, Li Hua immediately asked people to go back to her mother's house to inquire about the news.

Before the news came back, someone came from Fulu Palace, saying that the Queen Mother wanted to see her.

Li Hua tidied up her clothes, put a silver hairpin just given by Lord Wanli on her head, and walked with her aunt to the Fulu Palace. During the process, she tried to find out about the Empress Dowager from her aunt, but her aunt kept silent.

I don't know what the Queen Mother wants to do.But no matter what the queen mother wants to do, she is now the emperor's favorite, so the queen mother must not dare to do anything.

After entering Fulu Palace, seeing the Empress Dowager sitting in the flower hall without any other concubines, Li Hua stepped forward and said, "My concubine pays her respects to the Empress Dowager."

"Hua Cai." The Queen Mother didn't ask her to get up, she just asked, "Did you sleep well last night?"

"Thanks to the Empress Dowager, the concubine slept until dawn."

"You slept until dawn, but Aijia didn't sleep very well."

Li Hua's bent knees trembled, and it was not easy to maintain this posture.

"If the empress dowager is unwell, let the concubine ask someone to come to the imperial hospital to invite the imperial doctor. The health of the empress dowager is related to the happiness of the people in the community, and it is for all people." Li Hua said tremblingly, Talking on your knees is more uncomfortable than kneeling.

The Empress Dowager still didn't seem to see her and asked her aunt: "The last time the emperor asked Nanning to weave the batch of cloth, you can pick one for Ai's family."

"What kind of suit does the Empress Dowager want? The servants will go to the warehouse to get it." The aunt replied.

"Just that one, Aijia said it looks like the one that Aijia used to wear."

The aunt understood what the queen mother said, smiled and put her head in her head: "The color of the cloth was specially made by Nanning weaving for the queen mother."

"They are trying to please the Aijia, and if they have the heart, they will accept it. It's a pity that Aijia is old, and if he is a talented person at this age, he is not afraid to wear it. Now looking at this suit, It can only be a memory of the grand scene of the year. Therefore, it is a waste to put it in the warehouse, it is better to take it out and give it to the young to wear." The queen mother blew on the hot air on the tea cup.

The aunt stepped across the threshold and took the key to the warehouse to pick up things.

Li Hua was still kneeling and half kneeling, waiting for the Queen Mother to finish her tea.

The queen mother took a sip of tea for a long time.

Although Li Hua knew in his heart that the empress dowager must be trying to manipulate her, and he didn't know where something went wrong in the thing he thought was perfect, but it didn't matter.Listen to what the queen mother said just now, she said that she would take out the cloth she wore when she was favored by the late emperor, and said that she was at the age of a talented person at that time. Give her Li Hua a candy to eat.The empress dowager is a smart person, she must know that she cannot sweep the emperor's face, she is now the emperor's favorite concubine.

Thinking about it this way, Li Hua felt that his value of suffering first and then sweetness was all he had to endure.

After an unknown period of time, her legs became numb, and she almost lost all feeling in her legs, leaving only the faith to hold on to the piece of cloth for the Queen Mother.Finally looking forward to the stars and the moon, my aunt came in with the cloth in both hands.

Glancing at his aunt's hand, Li Hua exclaimed in his heart: This suit is so good!
The degree to which the late emperor favored the Empress Dowager was definitely not nonsense. Look at this satin, how many strands of thread are needed to weave such complicated and colorful flowers, it is so precious. These colors are not floating on the surface, but hidden in the satin. , it doesn't look ostentatious, low-key and reserved, which is the kind of beauty that the palace likes most.The color of the flower thread is so similar, which is not something that ordinary dyeing craftsmen can do.

Li Hua thought to himself, if he put on a dress made of this color, when Lord Wanli asked, he said that it was a gift from the Queen Mother, and Lord Wanli knew that the Queen Mother doted on her, this would be a perfect result.

The corners of her lips couldn't help but rise, she just waited for the moment when the queen mother gave her the cloth and knelt down to rest, and then asked someone to make clothes immediately.

The queen mother opened the corner of the cloth that her aunt brought, and squinted at it, as if she was very happy and couldn't put it down.The aunt said: "How about, Queen Mother, ask Nanning Weaving to send another one over."
