Chapter 40 Empress Dowager Birth
Chapter 40 The Queen Mother gave birth
Xiao Chen ignored Su Wanwan, but glanced bitterly at Lin Shuran, who was standing next to Xu Junze. There was no jealousy in her eyes, her expression was as usual, and she always had a faint smile on her lips.
Xu Junze didn't pay much attention to Xiao Chen and Su Wanwan, but said to Lin Shuran: "Let's go!"
Lin Shuran nodded. Whether it was the way Xiao Chen looked at her or the hostility Su Wanwan released towards her, it made her feel a little uncomfortable. This might be what Lin Shuran had to bear if she occupied her body.
After being separated from Xiao Chen and Su Wanwan for a long time, Xu Junze stared straight ahead with deep eyes. Lin Shuran followed his footsteps and suddenly heard him say: "Do you regret not marrying Xiao Chen?"
"Huh?" Lin Shuran looked up at him blankly, but saw that his face was serious. She was about to open her mouth to answer, but heard him say unhurriedly, "It's too late to regret it, you are already my wife!"
Why did Xu Junze's words sound like she wanted Hongxing to cheat on her, and warned her to abide by women's ethics. She obviously didn't do anything, and she didn't have any personal thoughts about Xiao Chen, but no one would believe her explanation, no matter what others did
Think about it, she is not afraid of her shadow being distorted.
When she arrived at Renshou Palace, Lin Shuran did not dare to look around. After all, this was the first time she formally entered the palace to meet the most noble woman in the Jin Dynasty. The hall was very warm and there were not many palace maids and eunuchs. She had heard Wenshi say that the Queen Mother was a
People who like peace and quiet.
"General, madam, please come into the inner hall. The Queen Mother is waiting in the inner hall!" The lady in charge of the Queen Mother personally led Xu Junze and Lin Shuran into the inner hall. Generally speaking, only the Queen Mother's close relatives are allowed to enter the inner hall.
It is allowed to enter the inner hall of the Queen Mother. Generally, the Queen Mother summons ministers, and the ministers and wives are in the outer hall.
Sure enough, the rumors that the Queen Mother did not regard Xu Junze as an outsider were true. Lin Shuran followed Xu Junze into the inner hall with some uneasiness. It seemed that he was familiar with the people. He must have met the Queen Mother before.
When she arrived at the inner hall, the Queen Mother was lying leisurely on her side on the couch. When she saw the two people coming in, she immediately had a smile on her face. She waved to them kindly and said, "Come closer and let Aijia take a look. Brother Ze, this
I have become thinner in recent days, and your new wife is not fat either. Is it because you gave your salary to someone else and made your own wife suffer?!"
Facing the Queen Mother's natural approach, Lin Shuran was stunned at first, but she did not show resistance, but was a little nervous. After quickly calming down, she just smiled shyly.
Then, I heard the Queen Mother say again: "Today next year, the Ai family will have to drink the full moon wine of your two biological sons. If you fail to complete this task, the Ai family will be punished together!"
"Aijia kicked you out and you won't leave!" The Queen Mother pretended to be angry. Xu Junze had to leave the inner hall. The Queen Mother was the person he respected and was closest to most besides his master, so he could always listen to her words and never offended her.
She is angry.
Naturally, the Queen Mother saw the little interactions between them. She smiled slightly and her eyes were even more satisfied. She took Lin Shuran's hand as she walked closer, patted the back of her hand gently and said with a smile: "From now on, the Ai family will
He is your backer, if brother Ze bullies you, just come to the Ai family and file a complaint against him, and the Ai family will definitely punish him!"
Lin Shuran's smile just froze on her face. In modern times, she was often urged to get married. In ancient times, she was urged to have a child, and it was also a "hard target". She was pregnant for ten months, and the Queen Mother would drink their full moon wine next year. How could she?
Aren’t you going to get pregnant with Xu Junze’s child within a month?!
"You are used to being used by the emperor. How can it be that no one in the court points to you, a newlywed, to suppress bandits?" The Queen Mother seemed to have a lot of resentment towards her own son who was the emperor, and then her eyes flashed.
He then turned to look at Lin Shuran, who had been lowering his head, and looked around carefully, "You are the youngest daughter of Mrs. Lin's family, please, raise your head and let the Ai family take a look!"
The Queen Mother's tone sounded reprimanding, but Lin Shuran was shocked. The Queen Mother at that time not only ignored Xu Junze, she almost treated him as her own son. She didn't look dignified at all, just like a human being.
An ordinary old lady is talking to her child.
"Go to the Emperor and come back to pick up your new wife. Let us have a heart-to-heart talk!" The Queen Mother drove Xu Junze away with just one word. Before leaving, Xu Junze gave Lin Shuran a meaningful look, as if
It was because she was worried about being alone with the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother first asked Lin Shuran how she was doing when she married into the Xu family, and whether the Xu family's stepsons were causing trouble for her. She then talked about the pomegranate tree in the old censor's family, and asked if Lin Shuran really saved the pomegranate tree.
Alive.
"The Queen Mother—" Xu Junze was about to open his mouth, but was stopped by the Queen Mother's eyes. It was obvious that the Queen Mother knew what he was going to say next, and it was nothing more than saying that there was no rush to have a child.
Helplessness flashed in Xu Junze's eyes. Every time he met the Queen Mother, he would always tease him, but he did not forget the courtesy of a courtier. He replied respectfully: "I'd like to thank the Queen Mother for your thoughts. Everything is fine!"
When only the Queen Mother and Lin Shuran were left, the Queen Mother asked Lin Shuran to sit down on the chair next to her, and did not change her expression towards her because of Xu Junze's departure. She remained gentle and loving.
"Look at how pretty this little face is. Just like your sister Concubine Yun, the Ai family fell in love with her at first sight. This time the emperor finally did something that satisfied the Ai family. Show it to Brother Ze, the daughter-in-law you married.
It looks great, come on, come to the Aijia!" The Queen Mother waved to Lin Shuran again. Lin Shuran was a little flattered and looked up at Xu Junze. Xu Junze nodded slightly to her, and she moved to the Queen Mother.
Lin Shuran raised her head slightly and saw a graceful old woman with a loving face looking at her with curiosity. Although she had already bowed with Xu Junze just now, she still bowed again formally: "Your Majesty.
Lin Shuran, a woman, pays her respects to the Queen Mother and wishes the Queen Mother happiness, longevity and health."
Lin Shuran answered them all one by one, and as they chatted, it seemed that she had forgotten that the person she was chatting with was the emperor's mother, the current Queen Mother. She actually forgot her nervousness for a moment and started talking and laughing.
When Concubine Yun and her daughter Princess Jiang Yue were brought in by the grandma in charge, she saw her little sister sitting affectionately next to the Queen Mother, talking happily. The Queen Mother had a happy smile on her face when she heard them.
Stop when you come in.
"Royal Grandmother!" The four-year-old Princess Jiang Yue was smart and cute. She was wearing a pink coat and skirt and skipped to the Queen Mother's side.
Lin Shuran first glanced at the pink and tender female doll, then raised her eyes and looked forward. A beauty in palace clothes came to hire Tingting. At this time, a vague figure flashed in her mind. She seemed a little uncomfortable.
He said with certainty: "Sister?"
