The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 550 Auntie strikes! (one more)

Not to mention that Ning An was confused by this sudden change, even Eunuch Qin, who had just cut a plate of fresh melons and fruits, froze in place.

What's the situation?

Why did the mother and daughter suddenly turn against each other?

To be precise, it was the queen mother who turned her face on Princess Ning'an.

One must know that Princess Ning An was raised by the Empress Dowager, just like her own daughter.

Princess Ning An looked at Empress Dowager Zhuang as if struck by lightning, doubts, astonishment, fear... many emotions flashed in her eyes.

Just as her emotions gradually gathered, and something seemed to come out of her mind, her tears fell first: "Mother, what did this son do wrong to make the mother so angry?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang looked at her coldly: "I don't know? Do you really not know or fake?"

Princess Ning An's eyes flickered slightly.

The Empress Dowager Zhuang was furious: "Aijia asks you, have you paid homage to your mother and concubine in secret?"

Princess Ning An opened her mouth, and the flickering eyes slowly settled down.

She slowly relaxed her body, stood up after a while, took a step back, knelt down in front of Empress Dowager Zhuang, bowed her head and said, "I beg your mother to forgive me."

Empress Dowager Zhuang clenched her fingers and looked at her disappointedly: "So you admitted it?"

Princess Ning'an admitted in a low voice: "I have indeed been to the nunnery, and indeed... I have cherished the memory of my mother and concubine there."

Eunuch Qin sighed secretly. He also knew about this matter. It was the night Princess Ning An returned to the palace. come out.

No matter what, Concubine Jing is Princess Ning'an's biological mother, so it is reasonable for Princess Ning'an to cherish her memory.

Didn't the Queen Mother know about it earlier?

Didn't you say nothing?

Why did you suddenly bring up old accounts today?

Empress Dowager Zhuang's body began to tremble slightly as if she was holding back her anger: "If Aijia hadn't heard someone mention it by chance last night, I wouldn't have known that while you were calling for your mother, you would never forget Concubine Jing! You really don't know how much Aijia hates you. She!"

Ning An kowtowed, folded his hands on the cold ground, and rested his forehead on the back of his hand reverently: "My son is guilty, please calm down!"

Eunuch Qin is even more fascinated, did the Queen Mother know about it the night Princess Ning An went to the nunnery? How can you tell Princess Ning'an that you just heard about it?

Empress Dowager Zhuang's tone was cold: "Since you want to recognize that poisonous woman as your concubine mother, then don't recognize this empress mother of the Ai family!"

After all,

She walks away!

Eunuch Qin didn't dare to stop her. He didn't step into the bedroom until she was far away, put the fruit plate on the table, and helped Princess Ning'an up with the other hand.

Princess Ning'an looked at Eunuch Qin with hesitation and guilt in her eyes: "Eunuch Qin..."

"Sigh." Eunuch Qin sighed again, "After so many things happened, can't the princess see how much Concubine Jing has hurt the Queen Mother? She caused the Queen Mother to turn against His Majesty, and took her away from the Queen Mother. You are the only princess she loves. You are Concubine Jing's own flesh and blood. You can't hate her, so you can understand, but you go to remember her and worship her... Aren't you throwing the Empress Dowager's heart into the millstone? ?”

Princess Ning An blamed herself: "Eunuch Qin, I know I was wrong."

Qin Gonggong said: "Forget it, the reason why the Queen Mother is angry is because she loves you too much. If someone else goes to pay homage to Concubine Jing, the Queen Mother probably won't care. You also understand the Queen Mother's temperament. People who don't care will never hurt her heart. .”

Princess Ning An said: "What should I do to make the queen mother forgive me?"

Eunuch Qin paused, and said: "Now that the queen mother is angry, the princess will avoid it first. When the queen mother loses her anger, the princess will find a way to ask the queen mother for her understanding."

Princess Ning'an lowered her eyes: "Now it seems that this is the only way. I can't be filial to my mother, and I have to trouble Eunuch Qin to take care of my mother."

Eunuch Qin smiled: "Slave will do it, princess, please rest assured."

Princess Ning An said softly: "Then I will go first."

"The slave will send you off."

"No need, Eunuch Qin should serve the queen mother."

"...Yes." Eunuch Qin responded in a low voice.

Looking at the back of Princess Ning'an who was gradually going away, Eunuch Qin suddenly said, "Princess."

"Is there anything else you can do, Eunuch Qin?" Princess Ning'an looked back at Eunuch Qin.

Eunuch Qin said earnestly: "The queen mother deliberately made Miss Gu angry with the princess, the princess should not take it to heart."

Princess Ning'an was stunned: "Is that so? I thought... the queen mother really prepared those things for Dr. Gu?"

Eunuch Qin smiled: "I serve the Queen Mother personally, can I still not know who made those things for?"

Princess Ning'an showed a knowing smile, like spring returning to the earth: "Eunuch Qin, thank you very much."

Eunuch Qin saluted with a smile: "Princess, go slowly."

Princess Ning'an left Renshou Palace.

Eunuch Qin smiled and said, "Where do the miscellaneous know who made those things for?"

But he understands not to give Jiaojiao the hatred value!

Eunuch Qin went to the study.

Empress Dowager Zhuang was sitting on a chair on the ground, with the token of protecting the country and the purple gold phoenix crown in front of her.

"Queen Dowager." Eunuch Qin honestly told the conversation between himself and Princess Ning'an verbatim, "I don't know if it's right for me to say that."

He has served the Empress Dowager for so many years, the Empress Dowager will not inform him of everything in advance, and as a capable confidant, she must never hold back the master under any circumstances.

What should be said, what should not be said, what should be dealt with aftermath, he dealt with it clearly.

Especially he did an excellent job of smoothing out Gu Jiao's hatred.

Empress Dowager Zhuang and Eunuch Qin actually had an unspoken master-servant understanding. She knew that Eunuch Qin could pull out the sword she stabbed and insert it back into the scabbard.

Eunuch Qin was puzzled and said, "But Queen Mother, why did you do this?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang said lightly: "When you should know, the Ai family will tell you."

Eunuch Qin replied: "...Yes."

As the saying goes, don't guess the holy will, but the cruel thing is that if you can't guess the master's mind, then you may not be able to survive in the deep palace at all.

Eunuch Qin thought about it carefully.

Empress Dowager Zhuang didn't tell him, was it because she didn't trust him enough, or was it because Empress Dowager Zhuang didn't want to mention certain things?

He thinks it's the latter.

It's too painful, every time I mention it, it's like a thousand arrows piercing my heart.

The Empress Dowager Zhuang can wrap herself tightly in cold armor, but the heart under the armor is no different from that of ordinary people, it can also be injured and hurt.

It's just that the Queen Mother shouldered too many burdens, she couldn't indulge in the pain, she could only bear the pain and move forward.

Empress Dowager Zhuang said: "You stare at her and try to find out what she took from the nunnery that night."

Eunuch Qin was shocked.

What?

Princess Ning'an took something from the nunnery?

Didn't she go to pay homage to Concubine Jing? Could it be that...it is false that she pays homage to the dead, but it is true that she takes something!

This makes sense why knowing that Empress Dowager Zhuang hates Concubine Jing, she still has to go to the nunnery where Concubine Jing lived at the risk of falling out of favor.

Of course, the information revealed by this sentence is not just the simple fact that Princess Ning An went to the nunnery to get things, but also why Princess Ning An wanted to take things, and why did the Queen Mother want to investigate?

It's an ordinary relic, so there's no need to check it out.

The fact that it is not an ordinary relic is a bit big.

After all, Eunuch Qin was the one who rode the wind and waves with the Empress Dowager Zhuang. The more storms he experienced, the stronger his psychological endurance.

What can surprise him? Right?

However, at this moment, he couldn't help but want to curse - see you soon!

...

On the other side, Xiao Jingkong entered the palace again.

This time he came by himself again!

...in Liu Quan's carriage.

He came to look for Huangfu Xian.

Because of the unhappiness with Huangfuxian, his aunt forbade him to go to Bixia Palace again, so he could only go secretly!

Huangfuxian sat by the window in a daze.

Lian'er was arranging clothes in his room, Lian'er gave him a strange look, thinking that since the son was injured that day, he liked to stare at the window in a daze.

In such a cold day, aren't you afraid of freezing yourself?

He is obviously such a person who is afraid of the cold.

"My lord." Lian'er asked him, "Do you want to close the window a little?"

"No need." Huangfu Xian said flatly.

"Then I'll pour you a cup of hot tea." Lian'er put down her half-folded clothes, poured a cup of warm brown sugar ginger tea, turned and walked towards Huangfuxian.

At this moment, a small round head popped out of the window sill.

Huangfuxian's eyes trembled, and he stretched out his hand to press down that round head.

"Lian'er!"

"What's the matter, son?"

Huangfuxian said calmly: "I'm hungry, hurry up and get me something to eat!"

Lian Er looked at the cup in her hand: "Then this tea..."

Huangfu Xian said impatiently: "Don't drink it! Throw it away!"

Huangfu Xian was always so moody, Lian Er took it easy, didn't suspect anything, put down Jiang Cha and walked out of the house.

After making sure she was gone, Huangfu Xian took back his hand that was holding someone's head.

The little mushroom head really grew out like a mushroom.

"Little brother!"

Xiao Qingkong tilted his head to kill, cute!

Huangfuxian turned his face away: "It's so ugly."

Xiao Qingkong looked up and down, picked up Xiao Jiu who was playing with snow on the ground, and said regretfully, "My little brother said you were ugly."

The inexplicable Xiaojiu: ...! !
