"My son, I have seen my mother, please be kind to my mother."
The emperor clasped his fists and bent down, his attitude was very respectful.
Immediately afterwards, a kind voice came out from the luanjia, and replied softly and forcefully.
"The emperor doesn't need to be polite, everyone should be on their own."
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
When Lin Wanyi got up, Xia Anxu helped her up.
But everyone's thoughts were focused on the Queen Mother's carriage, and no one noticed it.
The gauze curtain was opened, and a woman wearing a bright yellow embroidered bird-looking phoenix dress appeared in front of everyone.
This was Lin Wanyi's first time seeing the Queen Mother.
Perhaps because of her years of praying and practicing in Mount Wutai, the Queen Mother has an aura of peace that ordinary people don't have.
He walked solemnly towards the emperor step by step.
The emperor, together with his concubines, princes and princesses, went forward to greet him.
When she walked in, Lin Wanyi realized that the queen was indeed young.
Logically speaking, the Queen Mother should be in her fifties now, but she was so young that Lin Wanyi felt that the Queen Mother was like the emperor's eldest sister.
In the past, she thought Princess Rongkang took good care of her.
But compared with the Queen Mother in front of her, she still pales in comparison.
It doesn't mean that you look young just because you look good.
Instead, the Queen Mother exuded a calm and fearless yet very intimidating dignity.
As for the beauty of the face.
Princess Rongkang took great care to maintain her, but the Queen Mother seemed to be favored by God, showing restraint and calmness of youth from the inside out.
"Mother, thank you for your hard work."
"What the emperor said, praying for the Wei Dynasty is the wish of the Ai family, so there is no such thing as hard work, but when the Ai family was in Mount Wutai, they heard about the wonders of Mount Tai descending from the sky. This is a sign of good fortune. Look,
It seems that the emperor has governed the Wei Dynasty very well."
"It's all because my mother taught me well, and my sons and ministers didn't dare to take the credit."
"The emperor is humble again, isn't he?"
After saying that, the mother and son looked at each other and smiled.
Previously, Lin Wanyi had heard what Aunt Du said about Concubine Xian, so she thought that the Queen Mother would be like Concubine Lin and be quite scheming.
But now it seems that he is very kind.
Perhaps feeling Lin Wanyi's gaze, the Queen Mother also came to look over.
When the two people's eyes met, the Queen Mother's eyes looked more attentive.
That's right, it's about looking at it.
Lin Wanyi looked calm, not afraid at all.
He stood there openly and respectfully, looking at the Queen Mother respectfully and letting her look at her.
However, Concubine Yi was a little dissatisfied that Lin Wanyi had stolen the limelight, so she took a few steps forward and said.
"Your Majesty, it's been a tiring journey, so you should go back to Cining Palace to rest for a while."
After hearing her voice, the Queen Mother withdrew her eyes.
Then he glanced at Concubine Yi and said calmly.
"You are filial, let's go."
"Yes, Queen Mother."
Then, he walked cordially to the Queen Mother and took over the position of the grandma who was originally supporting her hand.
In the past, Queen Xu stood here, but now there is no Concubine Lin. The biggest one in this palace is Concubine Yi.
Therefore, she and the emperor supported each other, which actually improved and stabilized her position a lot.
Everyone is speculating that if Concubine Lin cannot come back, Concubine Yi will take a step closer to the phoenix throne.
Then came Concubine Ying, and then Lin Wanyi.
The rest of the concubines followed according to their status.
On the other hand, the princes and princesses were in the same position as Concubine Ying.
In Cining Palace.
Everything is still the same as it was before the Queen Mother left the palace, exquisite and elegant, not only luxurious and majestic, but also exuding an aloof temperament.
Perhaps it was because of worshiping Buddha all year round, so sandalwood was burning all over the Cining Palace.
Lin Wanyi still liked this taste in the past.
But after she became pregnant, she stopped using all spices, so she smelled a little stuffy in her chest.
I wiped my nose with a handkerchief, and felt a cool feeling coming over me.
It did dissipate the boredom a lot.
The Queen Mother's sharp eyes saw her movements immediately.
I don't know if he was dissatisfied, but he suddenly called her name.
"I've never seen this one before. Is this the Emperor's new recruit?"
"Well, she is Yi Ning's noble concubine. She entered the palace in April last year."
"Oh? Not selected for the draft?"
The person selected for the draft entered the palace in March, and she entered the palace in April. She was a month late, so there was naturally something going on.
The emperor thought for a while and said carefully.
"During the draft, the concubine was ill, so she was admitted to the palace after being recommended by Concubine Lin herself."
"No wonder, she became a noble concubine so quickly, and she still has a two-character title. It seems that the emperor likes her very much."
The Queen Mother's tone was calm and there was nothing special about it.
But to the emperor, it sounded like a warning.
She was promoted to the rank of concubine in one year, which is unprecedented.
In addition, the two-letter title has never been heard before, so the Queen Mother's meaning is obvious.
Lin Wanyi was as respectful as ever.
She couldn't control whether the Queen Mother liked or disliked her.
Moreover, the emperor and the queen mother were talking at this time, so it was inappropriate for her to interrupt rashly.
So I wasn't embarrassed, and I wasn't in a hurry to explain. I just stood there quietly.
This charm actually made the Queen Mother take a high look.
Concubine Ying was eager for the Queen Mother to take action immediately, so she watched with amusement.
Nowadays, she is really not as forbearing as she used to be, so her emotions are exposed more and more openly.
The Queen Mother glanced at her and snorted coldly when she saw her appearance.
"Okay, everyone, please step aside and leave the emperor to talk to the Ai family."
As soon as she spoke, others did not dare to stay even if they wanted to.
So everyone said respectfully.
"I, my maid, will retire."
After everyone filed out, the Queen Mother relaxed her shoulders.
He motioned to the kang seat next to him with his eyes, and the emperor sat down.
Although they are not biological mother and son, they have known each other for more than 20 years.
This idea is still the same.
After waving her hand to the palace attendants waiting around her to step back, the Queen Mother did not hide it and spoke directly.
"The emperor likes her?"
Such straightforward words made the emperor stunned for a moment.
But after a while, the emperor did not hide it.
He nodded and said.
"She is the one chosen by my son, not just because I like her, but because I treasure her in my heart."
His words made the Queen Mother frown slightly.
As an emperor, ruthlessness is the best.
Because in this way, the rain and dew can be evenly absorbed, thus implicating the former and the harem.
But if you have feelings in your heart, you have a weakness.
Looking at Lin Wanyi now, he was just a little calmer.
In the Queen Mother's opinion, it was far from the point where the emperor would fall in love with her.
Seeing the Queen Mother's silence, the emperor did not rush to explain.
Instead he said.
"She is now more than four months pregnant, and she is pregnant with twins. If they are a boy and a girl, they will be the dragons and phoenixes of our court. If they are... two princes, I have other arrangements there, and they will be taken care of.
