Not to mention that Ning An was stunned by this sudden change, even Eunuch Qin, who had just cut a plate of fresh fruits, was stunned.

What's going on?

Why did the mother and daughter suddenly turn against each other?

To be precise, it was the Queen Mother who turned her face to Princess Ning'an.

You know, Princess Ning'an grew up as the empress dowager, just like her biological daughter.

Princess Ning'an looked at Empress Dowager Zhuang as if struck by lightning, with doubts, surprise, panic... many emotions flashed in her eyes.

Just as her emotions gradually gathered and something seemed to be about to burst out from her mind, her tears fell first: "Mother Queen, my son-in-law didn't know what he did wrong, but it made her so angry?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang looked at her coldly: "I don't know? Are you real or fake?"

Princess Ning'an's eyes flashed slightly.

Empress Dowager Zhuang said furiously: "Ai family asked you if you have quietly paid tribute to your mother!"

Princess Ning'an opened her mouth and her flashing eyes slowly calmed down.

She slowly relaxed, stood up and took a step back a moment later, knelt in front of Empress Dowager Zhuang, and lowered her head and said, "Please forgive me for your sins."

Empress Dowager Zhuang tightened her fingers and looked at her disappointedly: "So did you admit it?"

Princess Ning'an whispered: "My son has indeed been to the temple, and indeed... has remembered her mother there."

Eunuch Qin sighed secretly. He knew about this. It was the night when Princess Ning'an returned to the palace. Princess Ning'an quietly went to the nunnery where Concubine Jing lived during her lifetime. She stayed there for half an hour before she came out.

In any case, Concubine Jing is the biological mother of Princess Ning'an, and it is reasonable that Princess Ning'an would remember her.

Didn’t the Queen Mother know about it early in the morning?

Didn't you say nothing?

Why did you suddenly get the old account today?

Queen Mother Zhuang's body seemed to start to tremble gently because of enduring anger: "If the Ai family hadn't heard someone mention it last night, you wouldn't know that you were calling the Queen Mother while still obsessing with Concubine Jing! Do you really don't know how much the Ai family hates her!"

Ning An kowtowed, folded his hands on the cold ground, and put his forehead piously on the back of his hand: "My son knows his crime, please calm down his anger!"

Eunuch Qin was even more fascinated. The empress dowager knew about it the night when Princess Ning'an went to the temple? Why did she tell Princess Ning'an that she had heard of it?

Queen Mother Zhuang's tone was cold: "Since you want to recognize that poisonous woman as your mother, then don't recognize the Queen Mother of Ai's family!"

After saying that, she left with her sleeves!

Eunuch Qin didn't dare to stop her. It was not until she walked away that Eunuch Qin walked into the bedroom, put the fruit plate on the table, and helped Princess Ning'an up with her other hand.

Princess Ning'an looked at Eunuch Qin, her eyes full of confusion and guilt: "Eunuch Qin..."

"Oh." Eunuch Qin sighed again, "So many things have happened, can't the princess see how much harm Princess Jing has caused to the Queen Mother? She caused the Queen Mother to rebel against His Majesty, and took away the only princess she loved from the Queen Mother. You are the biological flesh and blood of Princess Jing, and you can't understand it by hating her slaves, but you go to commemorate her and worship her...Aren't you throwing the Queen Mother's heart into the millstone?"

Princess Ning'an blamed herself: "Eunuch Qin, I know I'm wrong."

Eunuch Qin said, "Forget it, the reason why the empress dowager gets angry is because she loves you too much. If someone else goes to pay tribute to Concubine Jing, you probably won't care. You also understand the empress dowager's temperament. People who don't care will never hurt her heart."

Princess Ning'an said: "What should I do to get my mother to forgive me?"

Eunuch Qin paused and said, "Now the empress dowager is angry, the princess will avoid it first. When the empress dowager is angry, the princess will then find a way to seek the empress dowager's understanding."

Princess Ning'an lowered her eyes: "It seems that this is the only way to do this now. I can't be filial to my mother and I'm also troubled Eunuch Qin to take care of my mother for me."

Eunuch Qin smiled and said, "I know this, princess, please rest assured."

Princess Ning'an whispered: "Then I'll leave first."

"I'm going to send you."

"No need, Eunuch Qin should go and serve his mother."

"...Yes." Eunuch Qin responded embarrassedly.

Looking at Princess Ning'an's back as she gradually faded away, Eunuch Qin suddenly spoke: "Princess."

"Is there anything else for Eunuch Qin?"

"The Queen Mother deliberately angered the princess with Miss Gu, so don't take it to heart."

"Is that true? I thought... the mother really prepared the things for Dr. Gu?"

Eunuch Qin smiled and said, "I am serving the queen mother in person. Can I still not know who is for whom those things are made?"

Princess Ning'an smiled knowingly, like spring returning to the earth: "Thank you, Eunuch Qin."

Eunuch Qin smiled and bowed: "Princess walk slowly."

Princess Ning'an left Renshou Palace.

Eunuch Qin smiled and said, "Where did the Zajia know who made those things for?"

But he understands if he doesn't give Jiaojiao hatred!

Eunuch Qin went to the study room.

Empress Dowager Zhuang was sitting on the chair on the ground, with the token of the protection of the country and the purple golden phoenix crown in front of her.

"Empress Dowager." Eunuch Qin honestly said his conversation with Princess Ning'an without missing a word, "I don't know if this is right."

He has served the Empress Dowager for so many years, but the Empress Dowager did not inform him in advance. As a capable confidant, he must not drag his master down under any circumstances.

He handled clearly what should be said, what should not be said, what should be done, and what should be done after the disaster.

Especially he did a great job of smoothing out Gu Jiao's hatred value.

There is actually a tacit understanding between Empress Dowager Zhuang and Eunuch Qin. She knows that the sword she stabbed was so that Eunuch Qin could pull it back and put it back into the scabbard.

Eunuch Qin said in confusion: "But the Queen Mother, why did you do this?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang said lightly: "When you should know, the Ai family will tell you."

Eunuch Qin replied: "…yes."

As the saying goes, don’t guess the saint’s will, but the cruel thing is that if you can’t guess the master’s thoughts, you may not be able to survive in the deep palace.

Eunuch Qin thought about it carefully.

Empress Dowager Zhuang didn’t tell him whether it was because he didn’t trust him enough, or was Empress Dowager Zhuang herself unwilling to mention certain things?

He thinks it is the latter.

What is so painful, every time you mention it, thousands of arrows pierce the heart.

Queen Mother Zhuang can wrap herself tightly with cold armor, but the heart under the armor is no different from ordinary people. It will be hurt and hurt.

It’s just that the empress dowager has carried too many heavy burdens, and she cannot indulge in pain, so she can only bear the pain and carry the weight forward.

Empress Dowager Zhuang said: "You stare at her and find out what she took from the temple that night."

Eunuch Qin was shocked.

What?

Princess Ning'an took something from the nunnery?

Didn’t she go to pay tribute to Concubine Jing? Could it be that... she paid tribute to the deceased for the false, and what was real to take!

This explains why, even though I knew that Empress Dowager Zhuang hated Concubine Jing, she still risked losing favor and went to the temple where Concubine Jing lived.

Of course, the information revealed by this sentence is not just as simple as Princess Ning'an went to the nunnery to get something, but also why Princess Ning'an took it and why did the Queen Mother check it?

It is an ordinary relic and there is no need to check it.

It's a bit big of a deal that's not an ordinary relic.

After all, Eunuch Qin was the one who followed Empress Dowager Zhuang to ride the wind and waves. As he experienced more storms, his psychological tolerance naturally became stronger.

What could shock him? Right?

However, at this moment, he couldn't help but want to curse - I'll see you for a long time!

...

On the other side, Xiao Jingkong entered the palace again.

He came here again this time!

...Walking in Liu Quan's carriage.

He came to find Huangfu Xian.

Because he had an unpleasant fight with Huangfu Xian, his aunt did not allow him to go to Bixia Palace again, so he could only go there secretly!

Huangfu Xian sat by the window in a daze.

Lian'er was tidying up her clothes in his room. Lian'er glanced at him strangely and thought to herself that since the young master was injured that day, she liked to look at the window and stared blankly.

In such a cold day, aren’t you afraid of getting yourself frozen?

He is obviously such a person who is afraid of the cold.

"Young Master." Lian'er asked at him, "Do you want to close the window a little smaller?"

"No." Huangfu Xian said indifferently.
