The crazy daily life of the mistress

Wanyin performed a junior's greeting: "Meet the Madam of the Crown Prince."

Actually, the Tenth Princess should call her cousin-in-law, as the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo is the cousin of Emperor Tiansheng.

They are just relatives from Emperor Tiansheng’s biological mother’s side.

In front of the Queen Mother, the adoptive mother of Emperor Tiansheng, naturally no one would specifically bring up this relationship.

The palace servants quickly carried a table to the yard, and tea, cakes and pastries were served one after another.

Of course Emperor Tiansheng could not hide the fact that the Queen had summoned someone into the palace.

So as soon as they sat down, Emperor Tiansheng came over.

Following a voice: "The Emperor has arrived!"

Except for the Queen Mother, everyone else stood up and knelt in the yard: "Welcome to the Emperor!"

Emperor Tiansheng smiled and said, "Everyone, stand up!"

Then he said to the Queen Mother: "My son greets you, mother."

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "How come the Emperor has time to come here?"

Emperor Tiansheng said, "I thought you must have woken up from your lunch break, so I came to have a cup of tea with you, but I didn't expect that your place is so lively."

The Queen Mother said, "This time when I went to Fuguo Temple, Master Mingzheng said that the horoscope of the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo's son is the most compatible with mine. I want to see what this girl looks like, so I asked the Queen to summon her to the palace for me to have a look."

Emperor Tiansheng said: "If the Queen Mother likes her, please summon her to the palace."

Lu Yi hurried out, bowed and said, "It is an honor for me to be favored by the Queen Mother."

The marriage between Lu Yi and Zhan Shijun was personally arranged by Emperor Tiansheng, so he still had some impression of it. He asked, "Is your father Lu Chen, the Junior Secretary of the Guanglu Temple?"

Lu Yi replied: "Your Majesty, that's right."

The Queen Mother asked, "Lu Chen? Is he the top scholar in the liberal arts in the 35th year of Mingde?"

That year was the last year of the late emperor’s reign, and Lu Chen was the last number one scholar chosen by the late emperor.

However, after the death of the previous emperor and the succession of Emperor Tiansheng, Lu Chen, the top scholar, was not given much importance.

Emperor Tiansheng favored his own people, so Lu Chen, the top scholar during the previous emperor's time, became depressed in the officialdom.

Emperor Tiansheng also remembered it and said, "Now that my mother mentioned it, I also remembered it."

Lu Yi didn't know that her father was once the top scholar.

She said, "So my father was the top scholar. I didn't even know it before."

Emperor Tiansheng was curious and asked, "Did your father never mention that he was once the top scholar?"

Lu Yi thought about it carefully and realized that her father had never mentioned it.

So I answered honestly: "No, my father is not a person who likes to show off."

Emperor Tiansheng laughed loudly at these words and said, "What a man who doesn't like to show off. Such a man doesn't seek fame and fortune. Good, good, he is indeed a rare good man."

Lu Chen immediately left an impression on Emperor Tiansheng, and his name was also recorded in the emperor's mind. In the future, when there is a suitable position, he will definitely think of him.

The Queen Mother said, "Lu Yi, is that so? Come here and let me take a good look. Master Mingzheng said that he helped to match the marriage certificate between you and the son of the Duke of Zhenguo. At that time, he felt that your horoscope was particularly compatible with mine. So, this time when I went to Fuguo Temple, Master Mingzheng told me this. You wouldn't mind coming to accompany me, an old man, once in a while, right?"

Lu Yi bowed and said, "Your Majesty, you are not old at all. Your Majesty, I am so happy that I can enter the palace to see you. Why would I mind?"

When the Queen Mother heard Lu Yi's words, a sincere smile appeared on her face, and she said, "This little mouth is really good at coaxing people!"

When Emperor Tiansheng saw that the empress dowager was suddenly interested in Lu Yi, a stranger whom he had never met before, he thought about it.

Lu Yi is a woman and she is only fifteen years old this year. It is impossible for her to have any relationship with the little prince back then.

Zhan Shijun, 20 years old this year, is the son of his cousin Du. He also saw his cousin when she was pregnant.

Therefore, Zhan Shijun has nothing to do with the little prince.

It seems that the Queen Mother's desire to meet Lu Yi was indeed just Master Mingzheng's suggestion.

Emperor Tiansheng saw his adoptive mother's rare smile and said, "It seems that what Master Mingzheng said is true. Lu Yi is indeed compatible with you. How about this? I will give you a jade token. On the 3rd, 6th, and 9th day of every month, you will come to the palace to accompany the Queen Mother for a day. This way, the Queen Mother won't have to summon you at short notice."

As he said this, he handed the jade pendant he was wearing to Lu Yi.

Lu Yi didn't know if she could answer it, but there were so many people sitting at the table, and only the Queen Mother made her feel a natural sense of closeness.

So he looked at the Queen Mother boldly and asked, "Your Majesty, can I take it?"

The Queen Mother personally took the jade pendant from Emperor Tiansheng's hand, placed it in Lu Yi's hand, and said, "Since it is a reward from the Emperor, of course you have to accept it. Thank him quickly."

Lu Yi took the jade pendant and knelt down again, and Da Qing knelt down with her.

Lu Yi kowtowed, and Da Qing also kowtowed.

Lu Yi said: "Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Tiansheng said, "Get up quickly. As long as you can make the Queen Mother happy, I will reward you."

Lu Yi was about to kowtow again, but the Queen Mother winked at Madam Ru, who immediately helped Lu Yi up and said, "Madam, the Emperor wants you to stand up."

Lu Yi said: "I, your Majesty, thank you."

When he stood up, his forehead was scratched and the empress dowager looked very distressed.

If my son knew that the girl he liked was summoned to the palace by her and had her head broken, wouldn't he blame me?

So he said to Madam Hui, "These two honest girls have broken their heads. Ah Hui, help them in and apply medicine."

Lu Yi touched her forehead with her hand and hissed in pain.

However, this little pain on the forehead brought me the opportunity to enter the palace in the future. This way, if Mrs. Du wants to deal with me again, she will have to think carefully.

Lu Yi's entry into the palace had already been cleared by several top masters, so the empress dowager had nothing to worry about.

After Lu Yi and Da Qing took the medicine, they had some cakes and tea in the Empress Dowager's palace. The Empress Dowager then asked Nanny Ru to send them out of the palace.

As soon as the two of them left, the Queen and others also took their leave.

Wanyin followed the nanny into the inner room to serve the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother said, "Wanyin, go back to your own palace. You are not needed here. You must remember that you are a princess, not a slave. I brought you to my side because I pity you, not because I need someone to serve me."

Wanyin was very moved by these words.

The Queen Mother not only saved her, but also gave her the dignity of a princess.

Wanyin also felt in her heart that she had made the right bet today.

She knelt down, bowed, and said, "Yes, Wanyin understands. Wanyin thanks the Imperial Grandmother."

The Queen Mother said, "That's good to know. Go down. You must always remember that you are the Emperor's daughter, a daughter of heaven, not a servant who can be bullied by any slave."
