Quick Wear: The male protagonists all fell in love with her at first sight
Chapter 183: The Cold and Noble Prince (37)
Jiang Rou lowered her head even more when she heard that. She didn't think that the Queen Mother was really praising her, so she said, "Your Majesty, you are too kind."
The Queen Mother said nothing when she heard this, but allowed her to sit down. Only then did Jiang Rou have the opportunity to look at the Queen Mother sitting at the seat.
The Empress Dowager has been a vegetarian and chanting Buddhist scriptures all year round, so her food, clothing, housing and transportation are all simple. Maybe it was because she had just finished chanting, she was still wearing plain clothes at this time, playing with the curling hot steam and looking at the Buddhist beads in her hands. Although she is old, it is not difficult to see the beauty she once was.
The Queen Mother picked up the tea bowl and skimmed off the foam in it. The tea was steaming. Through the rising steam, the Queen Mother looked at Jiang Rou, who was sitting below her.
After a while, she said, "I heard from Female Doctor Ning that you once saved her. Female Doctor Ning was the emperor's savior, so you also have some credit." Ning Xi saved the emperor and became the female physician in the palace.
Jiang Rou was shocked when she heard this. Before she could say anything, she heard the Queen Mother continue, "Miss Jiang is not married yet. How about I find a marriage for you?"
As soon as the Queen Mother finished speaking, Ji Huaian walked in from the door. Hearing what the Queen Mother said, he interrupted her and said, "Grandma, it's so lively here."
The Queen Mother was helpless as she watched her grandson running towards her. Seeing this, Jiang Rou wanted to salute, but Ji Huaian stepped forward to support her and said gently, "No need to be so polite."
Then she turned to the Queen Mother and said, "Arou is timid, grandma, please don't tease her." Then she asked Jiang Rou to sit on the chair and sat next to her.
Jiang Rou was confused when she heard his words, and then she saw the Empress Dowager, who was as cold as ice just now, now had a smile on her face, as well as embarrassment after being exposed by Ji Huaian.
When the Queen Mother heard what Ji Huaian said, she complained to him, "It's your fault. It's been so long and you haven't brought your granddaughter-in-law to see me."
As she spoke, she waved at Jiang Rou. Jiang Rou walked forward and the Queen Mother grabbed her hand, pulled her to sit next to her, and put the bracelet on her hand on Jiang Rou.
Jiang Rou was a little flattered and wanted to take it off and return it to the Queen Mother, saying, "Your Majesty, this is too precious."
The Queen Mother pressed her hand and said gently, "This bracelet is my dowry. I am giving it to you today."
After saying this, she rolled her eyes at Ji Huaian, looked at Jiang Rou gently and said, "This brat has been stopping me from seeing you, saying that he was afraid of scaring you. Do I look that scary?" The Queen Mother complained to Jiang Rou like a little old lady.
Jiang Rou smiled gently and said, "The Empress Dowager treats me very well." Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager frowned and said, "Why do you still call me Empress Dowager?"
Jiang Rou felt a little shy when she heard that. She called "Grandma" softly. Upon hearing that, the Queen Mother immediately laughed so hard that her teeth were visible.
Ji Huaian was watching from below. Jiang Rou turned around and looked at him, and saw the affection in his eyes.
Just as the Queen Mother was talking to Jiang Rou, there was a chattering sound outside the door and Princess Jiawen hurried over.
Before she had the chance to greet Jiang Rou, she was relieved to see that Jiang Rou ignored her. The Queen Mother snorted coldly when she saw this.
Only after hearing the Queen Mother's cold snort did Jia Wen react and hurriedly paid his respects to the Queen Mother, "Greetings, Grandmother. May the Queen Mother be blessed with good health." Then he saw that although Ji Huaian was confused, he did not ask any questions and just nodded slightly.
Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother said, "You came here in such a hurry that people who didn't know would think something had happened to me." Upon hearing this, Jarvan smiled foolishly and said, "Look at what you said, isn't your granddaughter anxious to see you?"
As he said this, he shamelessly wanted to move forward, hugged the empress dowager's hand and acted coquettishly, "Oh, grandmother, I just missed you."
The Queen Mother was amused by her, poked her forehead with her finger and said "You", and Jarvan took further action when he saw this.
Seeing Jiang Rou also sitting next to the Queen Mother, she asked, "Why did the Royal Grandmother bring A'rou into the palace, causing her grandson to look for her in vain?"
It turned out that today Jiawen sent an invitation to meet Jiang Rou, but was told that Jiang Rou was summoned to the palace by the Queen Mother. She knew that Jiang Rou was timid, so she hurried into the palace.
The empress dowager glanced at her and said, "It turns out that your thoughts about me were fake, and your thoughts about whether Arou was bullied were real. What do you all think of me?" As she said this, she glanced at Ji Huaian, then picked up a handkerchief to wipe her tears.
Seeing this, Jiang Rou wanted to apologize, but just as she moved, the Queen Mother grabbed her arm. Then she saw the Queen Mother winking at her secretly.
Seeing this, Jarvan felt a little guilty, so he apologized honestly, "Grandmother, it's my fault, please don't get angry and hurt yourself."
Seeing that the Queen Mother didn't move, Jarvan became a little anxious. Looking at the Queen Mother's shaking shoulders, Jarvan became even more anxious. Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother laughed out loud the next second.
Seeing this, Jiawen, who didn't know he was being cheated, became furious. Jiang Rou chuckled upon seeing this, and even Ji Huaian had a smile on his face.
Jiawen wanted to take Jiang Rou out and show her around the palace, but unexpectedly she was pulled away by the Queen Mother.
Looking at the scriptures in front of her, Jiawen felt dizzy. She felt that she did not choose an auspicious day before going out today. She looked at the Queen Mother pitifully and said, "Grandmother, your grandson does not want to read the scriptures. She wants to play with Arou."
She suddenly thought of something and said, "Cousin Ji has such a scary cold face, and Arou is so timid, she will definitely be scared. No, I have to go find her." As she said that, she wanted to get up.
The Queen Mother held her down with one hand and looked at her like a fool. "Arou, it's okay. Just stay here with me and read the scriptures." After that, she ignored her.
Seeing her like this, Jiawen also figured something out. Arou was an unmarried daughter. How could the royal grandmother let her stay alone in a room with a man? Unless...
Thinking of this, she widened her eyes in shock and said incoherently, "Arou and my cousin and them." Seeing her like this, the empress dowager smiled, thinking that her silly granddaughter was not completely stupid.
After the Queen Mother and Jiawen left, Ji Huaian couldn't help but miss her so much that he stepped forward and hugged the person he loved in his arms.
Jiang Rou also called out softly "Huaian". Ji Huaian rubbed his chin lightly against Jiang Rou's soft hair, feeling at ease.
After a tender moment, Jiang Rou looked at the bracelet on her wrist and looked at Ji Huaian with some embarrassment. Ji Huaian looked at her soothingly and said, "It's okay, grandma likes you very much."
Then Ji Huaian said to Jiang Rou, "Arou, I have asked my grandmother to let you live in the palace. Once I understand the situation, I will personally take you out of the palace." He put his hand on Jiang Rou's face and rubbed it gently.
Jiang Rou knew that today's incident must be related to Ji Huaian, and now it seems that it is just as she expected.
Jiang Rou frowned with some worry, and she whispered, "Huaian, but something is going to happen. Will you be in danger?" She held Ji Huaian's hand tightly, and her pale fingers showed the uneasiness in her heart.
Ji Huaian comforted Jiang Rou, "I will protect myself. Once we understand the situation, I will ask the emperor to grant you a marriage," he assured her in a gentle voice.
Jiang Rou's eyes were filled with tears. She hugged him and nodded, saying softly, "Okay, I'll wait for you to pick me up. You must come to pick me up."
