Chapter Thirty-Five: Entering the Palace and Greetings II
The two got off the sedan chair in front of the palace gate. There was already a large group of palace maids standing there waiting. The woman in a pink palace dress stood at the front, looking different from the others and even more delicate.
"Meet King Qi and Princess Qi." The woman was blessed.
Feng Qi said indifferently: "No courtesy." Then he looked at Mo Yunling and said, "I have to go to the imperial study room for something. You follow Qingke to the Queen Mother Palace. I will pick you up later."
Mo Yunling nodded, and Feng Qi had already strode away. Mo Yunling couldn't help but look at the woman named Qingke, but her eyes seemed a little distant.
Looking at the leaving figure, Mo Yunling understood in her heart and coughed slightly. Qingke came back to her senses and looked at Mo Yunling awkwardly. When she saw the face of the woman in front of her clearly, her face was filled with tears.
It's amazing.
After a long while, Qingke finally said: "Princess Qi, please come with me."
Mo Yunling glanced at Qingke and nodded calmly. The two of them headed towards the Queen Mother's Palace. Along the way, Mo Yunling always felt that Qingke was looking at her. Could it be that she had become the imaginary enemy of others again?
The Shouning Palace where the Queen Mother lived was to the north of the Cangyao Palace. Because Emperor Cangyao was very true and filial, the Shouning Palace was more luxurious than other palaces. This also made the Queen Mother feel very uneasy. She once tried to dissuade her, but Cangyao
Emperor Yao ignored this.
When Mo Yunling stood in the main hall of Shouning Palace, even though she lowered her head, she could still feel the eyes of many people falling on her, and the atmosphere in the main hall was a bit dull.
"Reporting to the Queen Mother, Princess Qi has arrived." Qing Ke said from the front, and then stepped aside.
"I pay my respects to the Queen Mother." Mo Yunling knelt on the ground and saluted.
"Princess Qi, no courtesy." came a kind voice.
"Thank you, Queen Mother." Mo Yunling stood up and slowly raised her head.
On the first seat, a woman in purple palace attire sat high up, her hair was shining with pearls. Her face looked like she was in her fifties, but her features were kind. This should be the Empress Dowager Qin who turned the tide and helped the emperor ascend the throne.
.And there are three women sitting below. Judging from the palace attire, they must be the ones with high status in the harem.
"Come here, why don't you give Princess Qi a seat as soon as possible!" The Queen Mother said pleasantly, and then someone put down a seat at the second place on the right, and Mo Yunling went over to sit down.
"Princess Qi's beauty is indeed as good as the rumors. I can't take my eyes away from her." The woman next to her in a bright red palace dress looked like she was in her thirties because of her well-maintained clothes. She stared at Mo Yun with a pair of phoenix eyes.
Ling, she has seen this look before.
"Thank you for the compliment, I don't dare to be a concubine." Mo Yunling lowered her eyebrows and said humbly.
The Queen Mother couldn't help but smile and said: "It seems that the third son is the most blessed. How is everything going when Princess Qi comes to this Moyang City?"
Mo Yunling nodded, "Everything is fine. Thank you Queen Mother for your concern."
"I heard that King Qi has made things difficult for the princess again recently? This King Qi is really ignorant. He doesn't even know how to cherish such a beautiful princess." The eyes of the woman opposite were full of ridicule.
The Queen Mother looked cold, turned her head to look at the woman, and snorted coldly: "Concubine Shu, don't you want to imitate those palace ladies who gossip?"
The woman opposite stood up quickly and said hurriedly: "Aunt, I..."
The Queen Mother did not look at her, but said to Mo Yunling: "I am afraid that your mother-in-law is too leisurely on weekdays, so don't mind."
Mo Yunling was silent, but in his heart he had to look at the Queen Mother with admiration. Even though she had retreated to the harem for more than 20 years, the Queen Mother Qin's demeanor was still the same as before.
But why is she so kind to herself? She is just a princess from another country, and even if she doesn't know everything about some things, she still knows a little bit about them. How could this Queen Mother not know?
