While she was looking around, the maid next to the Queen Mother came over.
"Zuo Yan greets Miss Ye!" He stepped forward and greeted Ye Qingcheng.
Ye Qingcheng stood up quickly and said, "Hello, aunt!"
What a joke, in the palace, she wouldn't dare to look down upon a maid serving tea and water. There might be some big shot behind her.
"Miss Ye! The Queen Mother invites you!" Zuo Yan is the aunt in charge of the Queen Mother. She is only twenty-seven years old, but her status in the palace cannot be underestimated.
Every maid, woman, eunuch, and eunuch must step forward and salute when they see her.
Ye Qingcheng's heart skipped a beat, it was over, He Lian'er had come to the palace to complain, and the Queen Mother was causing trouble for her.
Although she knew it was definitely not a good thing, she couldn't resist the order.
I had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow Zuo Yan to Cining Palace.
After arriving, Zuo Yan went in first and announced, and then asked her to come in.
As soon as she entered, she saw the Queen Mother sitting above her. She was indeed as beautiful as she had imagined. She didn't look as old as a woman in her fifties, she looked like she was in her thirties.
It can be seen that a lot of maintenance has been done.
The person sitting next to her must be the Queen, wearing a phoenix robe and a phoenix crown.
As for how many people were going to attack, she couldn't guess, so she quickly knelt down after stepping forward.
"Ye Qingcheng, the eldest daughter of Prime Minister Ye, sends greetings to the Queen Mother! The Queen Mother is a thousand years old!"
She doesn’t know the other people yet, so she can probably not ask for greetings, right?
She knelt down to say hello, and after waiting for a long time, she was called to get up, and she couldn't help but look up to take a look.
"Prime Minister Ye's eldest daughter? Isn't she the one who was engaged to Chen'er? Didn't you hear that there was an accident?" An old lady's voice was heard, but Ye Qingcheng felt that she was definitely hostile to her.
.
"It's her! Mother remembered correctly!" Then another woman's voice matched the sentence.
"Get down!" Then a voice called for her to get down.
She quickly thanked her, "Thank you, Queen Mother!"
Then he stood up quickly.
"It's quite iconic!" The Queen Mother looked at it and suddenly her eyes widened, "Are the hair and jewelry she is wearing the same set of amethysts that Chen'er refuses to take out?"
"The Queen Mother saw it right, it's amethyst! And the ones on her shoes are the same!" the Queen Mother explained to the Queen Mother.
"A gift from Chen'er?" The old lady from before spoke again unwilling to be left alone.
Ye Qingcheng just stood with her head lowered. Since he didn't ask her by name, she just pretended that she couldn't hear him.
"Please sit down!" The Queen Mother waved her hand, not wanting to ask any more questions on this topic.
The two maids quickly brought a futon for Ye Qingcheng and placed it on the chair.
"Thank you, Queen Mother, for giving me a seat!" Ye Qingcheng bowed again, then slowly walked towards the Queen Mother's row, and sat down diagonally across from the old lady.
Now it was easier for the old lady to look at her. She saw the old lady looking at her without blinking, sometimes shaking her head, "She's not as beautiful as our Lian'er!"
The Queen Mother looked over, and the old lady greeted her with a smile again: "Empress Dowager, Lian'er mentioned to me when she returned home that Ye Qingcheng, the aunt of the Prime Minister's Mansion, was deeply loved by our Chen'er, and he even specially let her sit in his carriage.
, I was a little curious. Chen'er's carriage was never allowed to be touched by others. What kind of woman could actually make Chen'er make an exception? Now that I saw her..." At this point, she shut up again and looked at it.
Ichiban.
Ye Qingcheng understood clearly that this was He Lian'er's grandmother... Wouldn't that be true? She raised her head and looked at the Queen Mother, and there was a slight resemblance between the two people's features.
The next second, the Queen Mother gave her the correct answer.
"Mother, did Lian'er mention Miss Ye when she returned home? What else did she say?" the Queen Mother asked the old lady.
Mrs. He's face suddenly turned ugly. "Has the Queen Mother seen the wounds on Lian'er's face? That's what Miss Ye did! She was so young and so vicious-hearted that she actually hurt a young woman's face.
His face! It can be seen that he is also a poorly educated person!"
Ye Qingcheng looked at Mrs. He, with ice in his eyes: "Mrs. He, although I am young, I also know that you cannot listen to the truth! Do you know the whole story?"
The Queen Mother couldn't help but nodded in her heart. This girl was brave. After knowing that the old lady in front of her was her mother, she dared to speak out to defend herself. Her words were clear and her voice was neither too loud nor too soft. It was just right. She liked it.
.
"How dare you argue with me? I'm asking you, did the wound on Lian'er's face come from a dispute with you?" Mrs. He was a little angry at Ye Qingcheng's rebuttal, because she had long been used to the younger generation.
She obeyed without reason. No matter whether she was right or wrong, as long as she said something wrong, it was wrong. Now that Miss Ye had to defend herself, could she not be angry?
"I only know that Miss He was bitten by it because she tried to snatch away my pet! I didn't have any dispute with Miss He! At that time, I also reminded Miss He that my pet will
"Biting, but she didn't believe it! She also used the Queen Mother to suppress her, but she couldn't do anything, so she gave the pet to Miss He, but Miss He picked her up and was bitten. What's the matter with your daughter?" Ye Qingcheng asked briefly.
After saying this, he got up and walked to the middle of the hall and knelt down.
"The Queen Mother, please make the decision for me. Everything I said is true! His Royal Highness the King of War was also present at the time. If you don't believe it, call him and ask and we will find out!"
"You... you can't make excuses, but you still want to make a case against Chen'er? You... this..." Mrs. He pointed at Ye Qingcheng and was so angry that she couldn't breathe.
"Mother...what's wrong with you, mother?" At this time, the lady sitting next to the old lady quickly stood up and helped the old lady, and gently patted her back with her hand.
The lady next to him quickly stood up and helped him.
The Queen Mother held her forehead, this is how a mother is, she always pretends to be sick whenever something doesn't go her way. Now, she can't stand up to a little girl, so she starts pretending to be sick again.
She has already come to the conclusion that Ms. Ye must be right about this matter, and her mother also knows her granddaughter, so she would be so unreasonable.
"Anyway, I said you hurt Lian'er's face, that's the truth! Queen Mother, you have to punish this little bitch on my behalf! Now you are contradicting me like this in public, you really don't take me seriously!
"Mrs. He was still shouting persistently.
Next to her are Mrs. Zheng, the Marquis of Yongchang, and Mrs. Yuan, the wife of Master He, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy. Both of them are the daughters-in-law of Mrs. He.
"Let Mrs. He go down to rest first! Call the imperial doctor!" The Queen Mother frowned and waved her hand to Zuo Yan to ask someone to help her mother down.
Although she liked He Lian'er and often took her with her, she was not to the point of indiscriminately pampering her.
In addition, she was somewhat aware that Chen'er might like this Miss Ye.
She knew what her mother and Lian'er were thinking and wanted to marry Chen'er, but Lian'er was not the daughter-in-law in her mind.
Although Lian'er has a good appearance and is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, she is a bit petty and vain, so she is not suitable to be her daughter-in-law.
