Deep Palace Conspiracy: My son will sit on the dragon throne and I will be the queen mother
Chapter 480 Extra: Su Qingyao’s daily care for the elderly
In the spring of the second year of Yongqian's reign.
Su Qingyao, the Empress Dowager of Xiaoke and Shenggong, slowly opened her eyes. Ziqiu saw the Empress Dowager waking up from the side, and immediately stepped forward to help her get up. By the way, she called four little maids, brought spittoons and copper basins, and knelt down. In front of the bed, he was waiting for the Queen Mother to rinse her mouth.
"The Queen Mother, it's not yet noon, why are you already awake?" Ziqiu asked while handing over the bright yellow handkerchief.
Su Qingyao chuckled. When Emperor Yin De was here, she would get up before midnight every day and had not slept in for more than ten years.
Now that Emperor Yinde has passed away, he can't wait to make up for the lazy sleep of the past ten years. Not to mention breakfast, sometimes he even misses lunch when he wakes up.
Su Qingyao didn't think she got up late. Sister Xinxin, Wen'er and Niannian all got up at this time.
"Zi Qiu, when we were playing mahjong yesterday, Nian Nian obviously helped the Ai family, but why did the Ai family still lose to sister Xinxin?" Su Qingyao sat in front of the bronze mirror, letting Zi Qiu help her comb her hair, still mumbling. With.
Ziqiu knew that his master was losing his temper at mahjong, so he coaxed, "Queen Queen Mother, please calm down. Can't you just win it back today?"
"So the Ai family got up early today. Let's start lunch as soon as lunch is passed around." Su Qingyao said seriously.
Zi Qiu reported, "Empress Dowager, Xiao Dazi has been waiting outside the palace for half an hour. Do you want to call him in?"
"Pass it on."
Since Chengjue came to the throne, Xiao Dazi has become the new chief steward of the imperial court. Everyone looked at him with high regard, but Xiao Dazi did not hesitate and continued to serve Cheng Jue as he should. He also treated Su Qingyao especially He did not dare to forget the support and support given by the Queen Mother.
"I'm here to kowtow to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother is a thousand years old." Xiao Dazi came in and kowtowed to Su Qingyao respectfully.
"Get up, what are you doing here?" Su Qingyao asked while picking up jewelry.
"To the Queen Mother, the tribute lychees from the south of the Yangtze River have arrived. Your Majesty has ordered your servants to bring them to you." After saying this, he clapped his hands, and a dozen servants carried eight baskets of fresh lychees into the palace.
"The emperor is interested. Two baskets are enough for the Ai family, and the rest will be divided among the royal relatives." Su Qingyao loves to eat lychees, but she can't finish them.
"I also ask the Queen Mother, out of your Majesty's filial piety, not to refuse." Xiao Dazi lowered his body and said.
"Then let's all move down, and the Aijia and the concubines will taste it together later." Su Qingyao accepted all the lychees.
"The Empress Dowager, Your Majesty said that he has been busy with government affairs these days, and he really neglected you. He said that he would come to Ci'an Palace with the Empress and Princess Zhaoyu tonight to have dinner with you."
Su Qingyao nodded, indicating that Xiao Dazi could retreat, and then frowned at Ziqiu, "Have you told Jue'er and Shu'er that the Ai family is going to roast a whole lamb at Ci'an Palace tonight?" Roast the whole lamb?"
Zi Qiu quickly knelt down and said, "Empress Dowager, how dare you, slave?"
"Look, you're so scared. Why are you kneeling down?" Su Qingyao pulled Zi Qiu up, "But this whole roasted lamb is really not enough for so many people. You can ask the imperial kitchen to prepare three."
"Yes."
As soon as Zi Qiu agreed, Ji Xinxin came in, "Yao'er, I asked An An to find a theater troupe to come over. Let's have lunch and listen to the opera."
"No." Su Qingyao grabbed Ji Xinxin's arm and refused to let her go, "What kind of show are you listening to? Playing mahjong is so fun."
"I played mahjong every day, let's try a new trick today." Ji Xinxin directly pulled Su Qingyao out.
"No, we have to play mahjong today, and I don't believe I can't win."
In the hall, Su Qingyao and Ji Xinxin were tugging at each other, while Ziqiu and Xi'er stood together and snickered, not daring to persuade them at all.
Outside the hall, Liu Wen'er and Qin Niannian were watching the excitement and betting on who would win.
Scenes like this are performed every day in Ci'an Palace. Even though the Queen Mother and the Dowager Princess have already lived a retirement life, sometimes they still act like a little girl.
At dinner time, Emperor Yongqian Shen Chengjue came to Ci'an Palace with Queen Du Wanzhi and Princess Zhaoyu Shen Yunshu. When they entered the door, they felt that the place was very quiet and strange. Isn't this the most lively place on weekdays?
"Your Majesty, the Queen, Princess Zhaoyu, the Queen Mother and all the concubines are fishing in the pond at the back." Xiao Xiazi came up to report.
Several people looked at each other. It seemed that the mother was in a good mood today.
"What did your mother do today?" Yun Shu asked.
Xiao Xiazi said, "The Queen Mother and the Dowager Queens played a few games of mahjong and listened to a few operas. They thought that the masters were coming, so they thought about fishing in person and giving the masters extra meals."
Chengjue laughed, why did he think his mother was busier than him?
When they came to the pond, Chengjue and the others saw Su Qingyao, Ji Xinxin, Liu Wen'er, and Qin Niannian sitting in a row, fishing quietly.
Su Qingyao knew that the children were coming, so she turned around and gestured to them to be silent, so as not to disturb her fish.
Chengjue and Du Wanzhi looked at each other, then helped her sit on the stone bench on the side, and asked the palace officials to bring them soft cushions to cushion her.
"I caught it." Su Qingyao really caught a small fish. Seeing it was so small, she was instantly disappointed. "This stew is not enough for the children. Let's eat roasted whole lamb."
"Mother, please get up quickly. I have good news for you." Chengjue personally helped Su Qingyao up and pointed at Du Wanzhi's belly.
What it means is self-evident.
Su Qingyao's face instantly burst into a bright smile, and she slapped Chengjue directly, "You kid, Wanzhi is pregnant, why didn't you tell me earlier."
It has been more than half a year since Chengjue and Du Wanzhi got married. Although Su Qingyao was looking forward to the good news, she never urged her. Now that her wish has finally come true, she held Du Wanzhi's hand and asked, "Wanzhi, when did you know about it?"
Du Wanzhi was still a little shy, "I reported back to my mother. I woke up from my nap today and felt unwell. I asked Court Judge Li to get my pulse. It's been two months."
"An'an is now three months pregnant, so the little one in your belly can grow up together." Ji Xinxin said.
"Yes, my brother-in-law showed off to the emperor a few days ago that he is about to have a daughter. It seems that I will not only be an aunt, but also an aunt." Yun Shu said with a smile.
Cheng Jue took a sip of tea and said to Yun Shu, "You and I are twins. Now Wan Zhidu is pregnant. If you are not anxious about your marriage, Zhang Mo is still anxious."
Then he said to Su Qingyao, "Queen mother, Qin Tian has selected a few auspicious days. Can you tell me which day is suitable for Shu'er and Zhang Mo's wedding?"
