Soon, the Queen Mother's majestic voice broke everyone's silence again.
"Your Majesty, the Ai family has something for you." The Queen Mother took off a string of agate pearls from her neck, handed it to the maid next to her, and motioned her to hand it over to Situ Yan, and then continued: "This necklace went with Ai. I have had it for many years, and even though it looks nothing special on the surface, it is actually a good thing. As soon as any poisonous thing comes close to it, the color of the beads will change according to the degree of toxicity."
There was surprise in Situ Yan's eyes. She reached out to take the necklace and put it gently around her neck. Her voice was as sweet as an oriole's and she said, "I thank the Queen Mother for this gift." But she was already extremely proud in her heart. Such vanity is what Shen Tianjiao has to offer. She has never had it before, but she got it!
Amid the admiration of everyone, Yun Jingchu didn't think much about the Queen Mother's actions. She just looked at the incomparably beautiful Situ Yan with a hint of sadness in her eyes. No wonder she would lose to her. With such beauty and such a beautiful voice, any man will feel relaxed when he sees her.
Although she was born in Jiangmen in her previous life, she was a traditional woman at heart. Once she identified with someone, she would devote herself wholeheartedly to Yu Wenrui for six years. She believed that she would give her heart and soul to him, even if everyone was his enemy. , she would stand behind him without hesitation, help him and protect him wholeheartedly, and regard it as more important than her own life. They have been together for six years, and now thinking about it, maybe when he met her for the first time, his His eyes could only accommodate Situ Yan, so after he became the emperor, he began to choose concubines regardless of her feelings, presumably to pave the way for Situ Yan to enter the palace...
Thinking of this, a hint of coldness flashed in Yun Jingchu's eyes, but the coldness only appeared for a moment, and no one present could notice it.
The Queen Mother smiled kindly and said, "The Ai family has grown old, and many important things now seem inexplicably unimportant."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone began to speculate again. It doesn't matter anymore? What was she referring to? This string of agate? Rights? Or was it referring to her life?
Yun Jingchu raised her head slightly and looked at the Queen Mother high up. For a moment, she saw that the woman in front of her was full of vicissitudes of life, giving people the illusion of seeing through the world.
If I hadn't known the Queen Mother for many years, perhaps I would have been deceived by her appearance at this moment. How could a person's nature change so easily?
"Okay, the Ai family is tired, you all kneel down..." The Queen Mother waved her hand and signaled.
Everyone stood up immediately, knelt down and left Cining Palace with their own thoughts.
The Queen Mother, who was sitting high up, sighed slightly after everyone left. How could there be peace in this harem?
"Queen Mother, do you really give that agate..." said a female official who was about the same age as the Queen Mother. From the tone of her voice, it was obvious that she was not an ordinary palace maid. That string of agate had saved the Queen Mother several times. , she has never left...
"Moya, how many years have you been with me?" the Queen Mother asked calmly.
"Ever since Moya was sensible, she started to stay with the Queen Mother. Later, she grew up together and accompanied the Queen Mother into the palace." Moya said, thinking of this period of time, unknowingly, she had thirty people by the Queen Mother's side. It's been many years.
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Since it's been so long, don't you still understand the Ai family's thoughts?"
"For the sake of the Queen Mother's safety, I dare to talk too much." Moya looked at the Queen Mother and said what was on her mind.
"Well, in this palace, the only person who really stays with the Ai family is you. Even your own son may not care about me. How could the Ai family not understand your heart?" The Queen Mother sighed.
, now although she finally sat in the position of the Queen Mother, she walked with shocking steps...
I gave that necklace to Situ Yan today simply in the hope that there would be less trouble in the harem.
"Queen Mother, you are still doing it for the Shen family..." Moya didn't finish her words before she was interrupted by the Queen Mother.
"Moya, I'm tired." After the Queen Mother finished speaking, she closed her eyes.
"The Queen Mother..." Moya has followed the Queen Mother for many years and naturally knows what the Queen Mother is thinking. She knows that this incident is destined to become a nightmare for the Queen Mother...
