Chapter 53

When Prime Minister Xia and Mrs. Linglong came out of Shouan palace, Mammy Yang caught up with them.

"Madam, the empress invites you to have a cup of tea in Jingning palace."

Jingning palace is the palace where the queen lives. Mrs. Linglong naturally knows that.

Prime Minister Xia watched mother Yang warily, "what did the queen say?"

Mother Yang said with a smile: "nothing, just a cup of tea to chat."

Prime Minister Xia thought for a moment, "then, I will go with you."

Mammy Yang bowed, "go back first. What the empress said to her wife is only about women's family. It's inappropriate for her to be present."

Mrs. Linglong knew that it was impossible for the queen to leave her alone for a simple chat. She remembered that she had just made no statement in the Empress Dowager's palace. Would the queen want to take herself to blame?

But the Empress Dowager didn't ask a question. What can the queen say?

She grabbed Prime Minister Xia's sleeve and said anxiously, "prime minister, I can't go to Jingning palace alone, or you can let Princess Mei accompany me."

Prime Minister Xia said, "OK, you go with mammy first, and I'll go to find empress Mei."

Mammy Yang began to smile, but her eyebrows and eyes were cold and stern. "Mr. Xiang, you'd better not disturb empress Mei."

Prime Minister Xia replied with a smile, "it's a good thing that women are afraid of things and have relatives to accompany them."

Mammy Yang said faintly: "let's go with Xiangye. However, the sound of relatives reminds me that Miss Xia and Xiangye are also relatives."

Mrs. Linglong is really fed up with it today. In the Empress Dowager's Shouan palace, the Regent targets her everywhere. Even one of the servants around the Empress Dowager dares to scold her. Now mother Yang around the Empress Dowager speaks out again and again. Where did she get angry?

She looked at mother Yang and said coldly, "the Empress Dowager doesn't care about the family affairs of the prime minister. How dare you, a slave, talk about the family affairs of the minister? How many heads do you have to drop? "

Mammy Yang was not angry but laughed, "the head of the maid is here. If the lady wants to take it, just take it."

How dare you despise me like this? At least I am the prime minister's wife

When Prime Minister Xia looked at Mrs. Linglong's ferocious face, his disgust rose again. In fact, he didn't think he had found a shallow woman before. When he met her, she was very talented and did a good job in painting. Later, he said that because he was afraid of Yuan's jealousy, he swore that he would stop painting. He only thought she was generous and gave up a lot for him.

Therefore, even in the later life, her performance did not satisfy him much, but seeing that she gave birth to a pair of children for him and gave up her interest and talent in painting, he felt understandable and tolerant.

Today, however, the Empress Dowager said that compared with the yuan family, the yuan family was 100 times better than her, and he couldn't stand it.

This is what a man is like. He doesn't think it's a problem, but when others say it, especially those who are higher than him, he begins to feel strange.

"Well, madam prime minister, please do it!" Yang said sarcastically.

But Mrs. Linglong said stubbornly, "no, I won't go. If the empress has anything to do, she will order someone to declare it in the mansion."

Prime Minister Xia pulled aside Mrs. Linglong and warned in a low voice: "you must not offend the queen today, otherwise, Wan'er will never marry the prince."

Linglong's wife didn't expect to go up this floor for a moment. She was a little alarmed when she heard Prime Minister Xia's words, "what should I do?"

Prime Minister Xia thought for a moment, "today, you must suffer some grievances. Go ahead. I don't think the empress will do anything to you. I'll go to see empress Mei right away and let her watch. The empress should have some scruples with empress Mei."

"But..." Mrs. Linglong was flustered, but she didn't feel flustered when she thought about it. Since the Empress Dowager had just said that she would not pursue the matter of repentance, the queen could not embarrass her about it.

If you ask her to go, she will be reprimanded at most, and she will take it.

"Well, I'll go." Said Mrs. Linglong.

She turned and looked at mammy Yang and said, "let's go, lead the way ahead."

Mother Yang bowed herself and said sarcastically, "please, madam Xiang."

Prime Minister Xia was extremely remorseful, but he couldn't make trouble, so he had to leave coldly.

After Prime Minister Xia left, Mammy Yang stood still and looked at Mrs. Linglong, "the queen has orders. In order to pray for the Empress Dowager within one month of Guanyin's birthday, all the women who enter the palace must kneel down and kowtow to Jingning palace."

After hearing this, Mrs. Linglong was mad. "Why should I pray to Jingning palace? This is clearly for the needy. "

Mammy Yang said coldly, "it's not aimed at the lady. When the first lady entered the palace, she also knelt down to Jingning palace, and knelt down all the way through the palace gate. I think the lady knows about this. Even the first lady wants to enter the palace like this. As a concubine, can you have the privilege?"

Mother Yang specially emphasized the word "madam" to show her satire.

"You..." Linglong's face turned blue with anger, but she didn't want to kneel. She clenched her fist and said, "I won't kneel unless the queen orders me."Mother Yang said: "maidservant is to give orders on behalf of the empress. This is the meaning of the empress. Does the lady not want to pray for the Empress Dowager? If so, I will go back to the Empress Dowager first. "

How dare Mrs. Linglong let her say this to the Empress Dowager? Biting his teeth, he knelt down and said, "well, if I pray for the empress dowager, I'm willing."

The three kneeling and nine kowtowing were carried out by mammy Yang from beginning to end. She asked for Mrs. Linglong according to the standard of kneeling and kowtowing in the palace on that day.

Mrs. Linglong is full of anger, almost to tears, she has not been so wronged.

The queen had already returned to Jingning Palace first. When she returned to the palace, she looked at Mrs. Linglong kneeling down and went in.

Standing in front of the porch, she looked at Mrs. Linglong coldly and asked Zian beside her, "do you know why this palace is doing this?"

Zi an's eyes are the same as the direction she casts. However, she thinks that the Queen's action is meaningless. After she is cured in the palace, she is still as vicious as before.

"Yes, the empress is coming out for her courtiers." Zian said.

But the queen slowly shook her head, "no, with her temperament, it's useless for us to stand out for you here. Our palace is to let your father see that your mother is far superior to her."

"I don't understand." Zian was puzzled.

The empress's eyes have the light of remnant coldness, "to cure people is to cure the heart."

Zi an still didn't understand. He looked at the queen in doubt.

The queen asked her, "do you know the story of your father and Chen Linglong?"

Zi an said, "I'm not sure, but I heard that I admire Chen Linglong's talent."

The queen sneered, "what talent does Chen Linglong have? Have you been in the mansion for many years? At that time, your father was attracted by a painting, which was not painted by Chen Linglong, but by your mother. "

Zi an was shocked. She didn't know about it.
