Chapter 187 Grace

After coming out of the bedroom, Shaohua's brain has always been in a chaotic state. She almost can't remember why she suddenly became let her to make up. Could it be a deliberate revenge for her refusing to marry Hongfang? It sounds ridiculous. If people who refuse to marry the prince have to make peace, King Doro will not worry that there will be no one in the harem.

Looking at Shaohua's muddle-headed appearance, Su Jin didn't dare to make a sound behind her. After Shaohua entered, she was also remed by the maid on duty for a while. I thought that the empress dowager must blame her for procrastination. After all, she is not a person who often walks in the palace, and it is normal to be reprimanded as godless.

The two walked back in silence, but they almost bumped into the oncoming person.

"Where are you from? Do you walk without long eyes?" With an angry shout and seeing Su Jin behind him, he was stunned for a moment, "Su Jin, why is it you?" When Su Jin heard this, she looked up and found that it was the grand maid who almost collided with Shaohua, who was also a maid in the empress palace, and hurried forward to salute. Sister Su Xin, I was ordered by the Empress Dowager to bring Mrs. Li here.

Su Xin glanced at the lost Shaohua and made a false gift, "It turned out to be Mrs. Li. I took the liberty."

"Wu Niang?" Su Xin is a veteran in the palace and served by the empress dowager's bedroom, so she doesn't pay attention to ordinary courtiers, but she didn't expect that the master behind her would take the initiative to meet her. When Shaohua heard someone calling her name, he suddenly raised his eyes and saw Mrs. Xingyong, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. He was stunned for a moment and forgot to salute.

Maybe it's rare to see acquaintances. Mrs. Xingyong looked very happy. Shaohua hurriedly saluted, "Why is Madam here?" As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a thrill in his heart and immediately felt very regretful. Since Xingyongbo's house was looted and burned by anti-thieves, no one has taken care of it, and even the people in the house have disappeared. She only knew that the Empress Dowager thought that Mrs. Xing Yongbo and her daughter Lanzhi were lonely and took them to live in the palace, but she didn't expect that Lanzhi could never go back to Xingyongbo's house, and Mrs. Xingyongbo did not step out of the palace.

Thinking of what the Empress Dowager had just said to her, Shaohua suddenly felt a little flashing in front of Mrs. Xing Yongbo's smile, and I don't know if she knew about Yan Kaizhi. The daughter and the relatives are outside, and now the son has encountered an accident. In Shaohua's eyes, no one is more pitiful than Mrs. Xing Yongbo.

When Shaohua suddenly asked this, Mrs. Xing Yongbo suddenly stopped her words and didn't know how to answer her. Fortunately, Suxin reminded, "Madam, aren't you going to see the Empress Dowager?" Only then did she come to her senses. Her trip had a different purpose, so she smiled and said to Shaohua, "If you are not in a hurry to leave the palace tomorrow, come to my place. I haven't seen you for many days."

Shaohua opened his mouth for a long time, then nodded, saluted her and left. Looking at her lonely back, Mrs. Xingyong couldn't help frowning, looked back at the bedroom not far away, restrained her smile, and strode in the direction of the lights.

"I want to reply to my wife, Mrs. Xing Yongbo, please see me." Unexpectedly, she didn't expect that someone would come so late. The Empress Dowager paused and motioned for the maid to invite Mrs. Xing Yongbo to see the inner room.

Seeing Mrs. Xingyongbo in a plain cyan dress, she came in with a faint expression. After bending down and saluted, she found a seat and sat down. She didn't regard this place as the empress dowager's bedroom at all. The steward's maid was a little unhappy and frowned. When she heard the Empress Dowager He laugh, "Why doesn't you rest so late?" In fact, the people in the palace have long been used to this noble uncle and wife, but the Empress Dowager likes it and always indulges her to be free and casual in the palace.

Mrs. Xing Yong raised her eyes and made no sound to the beautiful maid above. The Empress Dowager had to dismiss all the maids of honor, and the huge palace left them two, which seemed a little lonely. I'm here to ask the Empress Dowager when she can let me out of the palace. That said, it didn't make people hear that she was asking for it at all.

The Empress Dowager He was not angry, "Is it uncomfortable to live in the palace, or did the maids neglect their sister?"

Mrs. Xing Yongbo said calmly, "The golden nest and silver nest is not as good as her own grass nest. The Empress Dowager knows my nature. The wild road that grew up on the barracks horse farm since childhood can't be disguised."

The Empress Dowager He covered her mouth and smiled, "My sister really likes to laugh. We grew up together. If you say so, I'm not a wild road."

Mrs. Xing Yong didn't like to play Tai Chi with her and said directly, "I beg the Empress Dowager to beg you to let Kaizhi and I go back tomorrow. I have lived in the palace for a long time."

Empress Dowager He was as if she were deaf of her words and sighed, "Since Lanzhi got married, my sister hasn't said a word to me. I know that my sister has grievances in her heart. Lanzhi is a gentle kiss for Rouwan. I remember her good, and I have always treated her as my own daughter. She married Doro far away, and I feel uncomfortable. With that, he covered his face with a handkerchief and choked softly, "Whish or scold, I know I can't make up for it."

Mrs. Xing Yongbo doesn't know what medicine she bought in the gourd of the Empress Dowager. Although she was in pain in her heart about Lanzhi's marriage, she gradually let go. After all, she has been married for a year. It was hard to look forward to the return of her son, but the mother and son were trapped in the palace. With her understanding of Empress Dowager He, if she continued to live like this, she would have to live.

She softened her breath and said warmly, "How dare I resent it? Lanzhi's blessing that Lanzhi can make peace for the princess." Mrs. Xing Yongbo said reluctantly. Now that this is the end of the matter, the Empress Dowager doesn't have to blame herself. She just wants us to let our mother and son out of the palace and go home, which is a great grace.

"Oh, is it true? Don't you want Lanzhi to come back?" Empress Dowager He raised her voice and asked softly.

Mrs. Xing Yong was stunned. She didn't think there would be such a possibility, and immediately asked eagerly, "Can Lanzhi come back?" Don't you have to wait until King Doro dies before you can return to Beijing? Did you get any news from the palace? This made Mrs. Xingyong look very excited.

When the Empress Dowager He saw her energetic face, she replied with a smile, "Of course, it's not impossible. Let Lanzhi pretend to be ill first, and then send an imperial doctor to say that Lanzhi is terminally ill. At that time, ask Your Majesty to choose a new wife to send to the marriage and exchange Lanzhi back. This trick has been used by some people in the previous dynasty.

Mrs. Xing Yong never thought that she could do this, and she was happy. As long as she could take her daughter back, she could do anything. However, Mrs. Xingyong couldn't help but hesitate to find a woman to replace Lanzhi. Who is the Empress Dowager going to send to kiss? No matter who is sent, it will be the pain of bone and flesh separation.

When Empress Dowager He saw that Mrs. Xing Yongbo had been hooked, she smiled and said, "Li Ge Lao's granddaughter, Li Wuniang."

Mrs. Xing Yongbo didn't think about it and immediately rejected it: "No!"

Empress Dowager He asked, "Why not?" Don't you want Lanzhi to come back? I just asked, and she volunteered to change Lanzhi back. After looked at Mrs. Xingyong's attitude, Empress Dowager He said, "Mr. Li Ge has taught a profound and righteous woman. With her intelligence, she will definitely capture the heart of King Duoluo. Wait until your majesty has the power to sit down and then pick her up."

Mrs Xing Yongbo shook her head resolutely, "Please think twice. I understand the pain of separation between flesh and bone, and I don't want anyone to be like me anymore. Just think of it as Lanzhi's life, please take it back." If it were someone else, she might have agreed, but Shaohua was her internal daughter-in-law. Although her son did not speak, her mother knew what Shaohua weighed in Yan Kaizhi's heart. In order to exchange her daughter for her future daughter, Mrs. Xing Yongbo suddenly felt that the empress dowager was clearly going to fight against her.

Empress Dowager He said doubtfully, "Sister, this is different. You only have Lanzhi's daughter. Li Gelao has three granddaughters, and Li Wuniang has a sister-in-law and a sister-in-law. It is said that she also has two younger brothers. It's okay to have one less.

Mrs. Xing Yongbo sneered, "If it were someone else, I wouldn't be silent, but Wu Niang couldn't do it." She paused for a moment and bowed. "This time, I still want to ask the Empress Dowager for a grace, that is, to ask the Empress Dowager Kaizhi and Wu Niang to marry her."

Empress Dowager He said comently, "It turns out that my sister fell in favor with Mrs. Li. It's really a pity."

Mrs. Xing Yongbo was puzzled, "What's the pity?"

Empress Dowager He replied, "It's a pity that my sister came a step late. The third princess had already told me, and the prince also fell in favor of Li Wuniang. I heard Erlang say that Li Wuniang was interested in Kaizhi, but she didn't know that the son of the world was interested in her again. We are aunts and cousins who grew up together, and the third princess is also my sister-in-law. There are my nephews on both sides. I can't let a little lady ruin their feelings. This is also my last resort decision.

Mrs Xing Yongcle gritted her teeth and said angrily, "Can't Lanzhi complete this time for the sake of Rouwan's marriage?" This is afraid of destroying the relationship between Yan Kaizhi and Hongfang. It is clear that she is not difficult to be in the middle. She is unwilling to offend one of them, so she simply offends together.

Empress Dowager He pretended to be surprised, "But I let Lanzhi come back."

Mrs. Xingyong squeezed her lips tightly, and her face became a little embarrassed. She knew that the Empress Dowager was deliberately making things difficult, but she couldn't say a rebuttal. She sank her breath and said calmly, "Then please take care of her husband and fulfill them."

It seemed that she didn't expect that Mrs. Xingyong would mention the past. Empress Dowager He's smile became cold and smiled faintly, "Sister, are you going to settle old accounts with me?"

"I dare not." Mrs. Xing Yong replied coldly, "It's just that my husband has left, and Lanzhi has also made a marriage. I only have one son left. Please do what the Empress Dowager can do."

The Empress Dowager He stood up, and the scarlet cloak fell to the ground, looking very bright. She slowly walked away and her voice became soft, "Sister, I know that I have never been jealous of you. Although I am now the empress dowager, you know it. We grew up together, but you are smarter and more beautiful than me, and even the married man is better than me. The daughter is clever and sensible, and her son is so brave and capable. Sister, why do you think all the good things in the world have caught up with you?

Mrs. Xing Yongbo's face was a little angry, which was obviously unreasonable, "Please be cautious."

"It doesn't matter if you are careful. Anyway, no one in this harem can fight against me." The Empress Dowager He sighed faintly, "At the beginning, I also advised my sister to marry into the royal palace with me. If my sister had listened to the advice, now she would have been half as glorious and rich." This made Mrs. Xingyong sweat coldly and dare not answer at all. Fortunately, the Empress Dowager turned her head after saying, "Well, it's been decades. The second princess left, long live the old man left, and even the bitch of the Wang family died. After all, the world is my He family."

Mrs. Xing Yong felt that she should not provoke this topic. What happened in those years was a secret that must be brought into the coffin. She did not come to the Empress Dowager He first.

"Empress Dowager, it's getting late. It's time for you to rest."

Empress Dowager He turned around and saw that her face was solemn and cautious. Knowing that her words scared her, she quickly smiled and eased the atmosphere. "Yes, Xing Yongbo died for Erlang's current throne. Naturally, I will not forget it. Sister, don't worry, I just joked with my sister. Li Wuniang is an interesting little girl. If she sends her to kiss, wouldn't it be cheaper for King Doro?
