Murong Qianqian's hands were released, she stretched her muscles and knelt down, "My son, I would like to send my regards to my mother. I wish my mother a long life and good health."

"Get up quickly." The Queen Mother raised her hand with a smile and said: "Yi Qian, move two chairs over."

Upon hearing this, the older Aunt Yi Qian immediately ordered two pearwood chairs carved with cold orchids to be brought forward. Xuanyuan Yao and Murong Qianqian stood up and sat on one side of the Queen Mother, one on the left and one on the right.

As soon as the two of them sat down, they heard a crisp voice sounding in unison.

"Concubine Zhen, send your regards to the Emperor and Queen."

"Concubine Meng, please send your regards to the Emperor and Queen."

Murong Qianqian raised her eyes and noticed that there were two other gorgeously dressed women in the room. One of them was wearing a pink brocade dress, Concubine Zhen, and the one wearing a mint-colored gauze dress was Concubine Meng.

For these two people, Murong Qianqian could still find some background in her original memory. Concubine Zhen's surname was Xia Zhen'er. She was the niece of the Queen Mother and Xuanyuan Yao's nominal cousin.

As for Meng Fei, her identity is not worth mentioning. She is just a little palace maid in a laundry room. But who would have thought that she was so lucky that Xuanyuan Yao took her fancy.

Murong Qianqian, who was only 15 years old at the time, heard that Xuanyuan Yao doted on Concubine Meng very much, and he moved Concubine Meng into Qichun Palace within half a month after he had just adopted Concubine Zhen.

In this way, she was on an equal footing with Concubine Zhen who lived in Liuwan Palace, which to a certain extent made the Xia family lose face, and caused a big commotion.

Murong Qianqian took a careful look at Concubine Meng and murmured in her heart that Xuanyuan Yao was so protective of this woman. She must have truly loved her, but in terms of appearance, Concubine Meng was not as pretty as the little assistant she had before.

While Murong Qianqian was thinking about it, Concubine Zhen and Concubine Meng had already stood up and sat down respectively, supported by their respective maids.

Aunt Yi Qian bought five new pots of tea. The newly picked Tieguanyin was boiled with the first snow collected last year. When she opened the lid, she could smell the aroma of tea.

Murong Qianqian was dragged along by Xuanyuan Yao in a hurry. When she sat down and saw such good tea, she had already reached out to pick up a cup.

"Concubine Zhen, Concubine Meng, you should learn from the Queen. You see this gesture is truly generous and decent." The Queen Mother took the tea, took a sip and smiled.

Concubine Zhen and Concubine Meng immediately stood up and said, "Yes!"

Murong Qianqian paused after hearing this, and just pressed her lips to the purple clay tea cup. The Queen Mother was praising her for her elegant posture, but in fact she was accusing her of not having the etiquette to drink the tea first.

Although she has acted in several palace dramas and is familiar with the etiquette in them, Murong Qianqian really hates these rules.

But now she doesn't like it anymore, but she stepped on dog poop and traveled through time. She could only smile politely and said, "Your Majesty, I have tried it and the water temperature is just right." After that, she pushed the tea in her hand to Xuanyuan Yao.

"..." Xuanyuan Yao twitched his brows, but still had a faint smile on his lips. He took the tea and took a slow sip.

Concubine Zhen and Concubine Meng looked at each other, but just held their teacups and lowered their heads in silence. However, the Queen Mother laughed and said, "You see, these newlyweds are different."

"That's not what the Queen Mother said. I just saw the Emperor holding onto the Queen's hand as he entered the Xianshou Palace." Aunt Yi Qian smiled and agreed from the side.
