Chapter 75: Layer upon layer of traps

Not long after leaving Tianlao, the Queen came to the Queen Mother's residence. Now, the Queen Mother's body is no longer seriously injured. Although she has not yet recovered her former health, she can already walk in the garden and do some daily tasks.

Something happened.

As soon as she arrived there, the Queen hurriedly greeted the Queen Mother, without even giving herself a chance to breathe.

"My son, I send my regards to my mother."

"Get up."

The Queen Mother was talking there, looking at the Queen kindly, looking at the Queen's dusty appearance, and then she added something.

"Sit down, Aijia looks at the queen looking so tired, she must be tired too, right?"

"When I returned to my mother, I was worried about my mother's health, so as soon as I heard the news, I hurriedly came to say hello to my mother and have a look at her."

The Queen Mother hurriedly explained. The Queen Mother's words woke her up. At this moment, she realized that her anxiety was somewhat obvious.

The Queen was really nervous all the way here. Her thoughts were all about Zhen'er. Even when she was greeting the Queen Mother just now, what she was thinking about and what appeared before her eyes was still Zhen'er.

No, she must not go on like that. Although the Queen Mother is old, she has rich experience. If you are not careful, the Queen Mother will definitely find out.

The Queen was thinking there. Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she thought of a good topic.

She waved her hand gently and signaled the palace maid accompanying her to come over. She quietly explained some things to the palace maid in a low voice.

After a while, the palace maid slowly came over with a box. What was inside was some Buddhist scriptures that she had carefully copied for the Queen Mother a few days ago.

It was all her own fault, she was so panicked, how could she forget such an important thing?

"Look, this is the Buddhist scripture that I have carefully copied for my mother these days. I hope that my mother will recover soon."

As the Queen Mother spoke, she slowly opened the box, carefully took out a dozen Buddhist scriptures, and handed them to the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother happily took the Buddhist scriptures from her and carefully read them while talking about them from time to time.

"Okay, okay, the queen is really thoughtful. As long as you have this filial piety, Ai's illness will definitely get better soon."

"Mother, what are you saying? This is what I should do. If my mother cannot recover as soon as possible, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life." The queen said without hesitation.

The Queen Mother and the Empress chatted for a long time without knowing it, and the time soon reached noon.

At this time, Xiyan carefully carried a bowl of medicine and walked in slowly. She just came to deliver medicine to the Queen Mother as usual. She didn't know that the Queen Mother was also here at this moment.

"The Queen Mother, it's time to take medicine." Xiyan said as she walked.

She didn't like the cumbersome rules in the palace. The Queen Mother had told her that Xiyan didn't have to worry about so many unnecessary etiquette when she was with her in the future. Xiyan simply agreed to the Queen Mother's order, just to take care of ordinary patients.

, taking care of the Queen Mother.

"Queen mother, who is this woman?"

The Queen Mother looked at Xi Yan carefully. She just felt that this woman was so familiar, but she couldn't remember who she was for a while, so she asked the Queen Mother curiously.

"Oh, she, she is a folk doctor. It was thanks to this girl that the disease of the Ai family was cured this time."

The Queen Mother politely waved her hand at Xiyan and motioned for her to put the bowl of medicine on the table. "See, see, Queen Mother."

Seeing this, Xiyan hurriedly spoke. Because she was a little nervous, she stuttered when she spoke.

"I don't know that the Queen is here. I was so negligent just now. Please don't take offense to the Queen." After thinking for a while, Xiyan continued to explain.

"Nothing, you go down first."

The Queen Mother said leisurely and sent Xi Yan to leave. Xiyan simply left there. She didn’t know why. Maybe it was because of Bei Mingchen. Every time she saw the Queen Mother, she always felt extremely nervous.

.

After Xiyan left, the Queen continued to ask about Xiyan's situation.

"Mother, I dare to ask again, where have we met? This woman looks very familiar to me."

The Queen didn't care so much about curing illnesses. She was more concerned about who this woman was. This time, she openly expressed her doubts.

"Ahem, Queen, why is this memory not as good as the Ai family?"

Having said this, the Queen Mother smiled softly, and then continued to explain to the Queen.

"This woman is the woman who presented the Green Baby Lotus to the Ai family on their birthday that day."

"Oh, oh, that's it. Judging from my son's memory, it's not as good as my mother's memory."

The Queen Mother kept talking and smiled awkwardly at the Queen Mother.

After hearing this, the Empress had a wishful thinking in her mind. She remembered that this woman was really not a simple person. After thinking for a moment, she had a plan in mind, and then added something there.

"This woman's contribution is really not small. She must be heavily rewarded."

"Yes, this time it is all thanks to this little girl. She is very careful in everything she does, and she is also very smart. The Ai family really likes her more and more."

When Miss Xiyan was mentioned, the Queen Mother couldn't help but praise her a few more times. She spoke with a smile on her face, thinking about what Miss Xiyan had done for her these days.

Although she had lived a well-fed life in the palace these years, her days were the same every day, and they were all so boring. But this little girl was so smart, and she always had some new and weird ideas, every day

They would try their best to make her happy. To be honest, she hadn't been this happy for a long time.

In fact, not only the Queen Mother, but also the Queen was becoming more and more interested in this woman. She also wanted to know more about Miss Xiyan.

"Okay, come and see the Queen today. I will feel relieved when I see that the Queen is in good health. Then I won't disturb the Queen's rest anymore. I will take my leave today."

The queen spoke slowly. As she spoke, she stood up and prepared to leave.

"Okay, then Queen, walk slowly."

"My son, please retire."

After saying this, the Queen left the Queen Mother's palace. When she came out of the Queen Mother's palace, it happened that Miss Xiyan had not gone far, and Xiyan was still in the garden of the Queen Mother's palace.

"Miss Xiyan."

Simply, the Empress walked directly to her side and called her to stop.

"See the Queen. I wonder what the Queen does?" Xiyan asked cautiously, shrinking subconsciously.

"It's nothing. This time, it's all thanks to the girl. Thank you for the timely detoxification of the Queen Mother." The queen said to her politely, gradually removing her psychological defenses.

"It's just a trivial matter, it's nothing to worry about. This matter is mainly because the Queen Mother herself has great blessings, and the little girl just tried her best." Xiyan said without hesitation. "Haha, you are so stupid

Little girl, you are really good at talking, no wonder the Queen Mother is still praising you?"

After hearing this, the Queen couldn't help laughing and praising her.

"Your Majesty, thank you very much." Xiyan said hurriedly.

"By the way, I wonder if the lady is interested in sitting in my palace? I would also like to thank you properly."

The Queen continued to speak politely to Xiyan. As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and gently took her hand.

Xiyan trembled suddenly, she was a little at a loss. To be honest, she really didn't like the depressing feeling in the harem, especially the feeling of getting along with the queen.

However, she could not easily refuse the Queen's request.

At this moment, she only hoped that Bei Mingchen could come back soon to help her out. However, before leaving today, he had already told her that he would leave the palace to do some very important things today. Now

Only a few hours had passed. He had probably just left the palace not long ago. How could he arrive at the Queen Mother in time?

Xiyan hesitated there, she lowered her head subconsciously, and never gave the Queen a reply.

"Why, girl, are you unwilling to reward me for this face?"

Seeing this, the Queen Empress added another sentence. As she spoke, she smiled at her. Her smile looked so friendly, so sincere, and so enthusiastic.

In this way, it was really hard for Xiyan to refuse, so she simply agreed.

"No, no, no, that's not what I mean. It's because women of the people are not worthy. Women of the people do things carelessly, and they are afraid that they will damage the Queen's things." Xi Yan explained continuously.

"Well, what's the problem? The girl is now a distinguished guest in the palace. I should beg the girl not to dislike her."

In order to invite Xi Yan, the queen even lowered herself. Now that the words have come to this, Xi Yan can no longer refuse.

After saying this, the queen took Xiyan back to Nanming Palace.

Not long after, Bei Mingchen's matter was almost settled, and he had already arrived at the palace and visited the imperial grandmother.

Hearing that Miss Xiyan followed the Queen to Nanming Palace, he couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart, and a bad premonition came to his mind.

After thinking for a moment, he hurriedly ran to Nanming Palace. He must get to the Queen as soon as possible, must, must as soon as possible...

At the beginning, the conversation between the Queen Empress and Miss Xiyan was not bad. They were just chatting about some insignificant things. The two of them chatted briefly, and they could still say something.

Talk and laugh.

However, how could Xiyan defeat the Queen? How could she realize the true purpose of the Queen's words?

Gradually and unknowingly, the atmosphere at the scene became more and more tense. Every word they talked to was carefully thought out by the Queen in advance.

The atmosphere at the scene was developing bit by bit towards what the Queen expected.

At this moment, Miss Xiyan is like a piece of fish under a sword, and can only be slaughtered there.

All of this was planned by the Queen, and every word she said was a trap, luring Xi Yan into the trap bit by bit.

Before Xiyan could explain, she was punished by the Queen to kneel on the ground.

Of course, the matter is far more than that. The Queen has now poured out all her grievances on Xiyan, and even slapped her mercilessly!

ps: Ginger is still spicier.
