No script time travel, the general helped me rise to the top

"Miss, now you've made me act out this drama, and you've even given away the last string of pearls that your ex-wife left for you."

Back at Fangfeiyuan, Xiaotao blamed herself for being incompetent and letting the mother and daughter get away with it for nothing.

Yangyang chuckled, grabbed a dried fruit from the table and stuffed it into his mouth, "You! Don't worry, the beads will be returned the same way you took them out."

Xue Yangyang felt bored as he chewed the dried fruit in his mouth. After all, that was the last thought that his ex-wife left for him, and he couldn't let it go to someone else for nothing.

"However, after today's disturbance, Madam Xue will definitely ask someone to ask you some questions. When the time comes, you can just say this..."

Xiao Tao pricked up her ears and listened carefully, "Miss, why are you doing this?"

"You'll know later. Anyway, let's just eat and drink and have fun!"

"..."

A week has passed quickly, and today is the day to go to Fuyuan Hall in the palace to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday.

Following Xue Yangyang's instructions, Xiao Tao worked hard for several days and sewed a gorgeous peach-colored silk dress according to her own lady's idea.

Add to that the large hairpins made of mica flakes and dried flowers on her head, and it is simply the epitome of vulgarity and eerie.

"How is it? Does it look good?" Xue Yangyang put the last hairpin flower on her head and smiled at Xiao Tao.

"Doesn't it look like a giant peony flower parading through the streets? Hahahaha!"

Xiao Tao brushed the hair on Xue Yangyang's head and said, "Miss, I think it looks very beautiful. Miss looks good in anything she wears!"

"You are so sweet-talking. If I succeed today, I will definitely reward you when I come back!"

Isn’t it said that the young marquis hates those vulgar things the most?

Today I have carried this vulgarity to the extreme, and I am afraid that the talented young marquis will stay away from me after seeing it.

Thinking of this, Xue Yangyang laughed happily.

From the moment he boarded the carriage to the moment the journey was halfway through, Xue Yangyang had not stopped smiling.

Xue Qingqing, who was sitting opposite in a light yellow dress and a hairpin, looked disgusted.

"Look at your unpresentable attire. Today is the Queen Mother's birthday. Please don't offend her."

Because the Left Prime Minister had something to discuss with His Majesty today, he left early.

Otherwise, Xue Qingqing would not have the audacity to say such words in front of the Left Prime Minister.

"I'm telling you clearly, you should stay wherever I am today, and don't run around! Father has already told you that if anything happens today, I won't be able to protect you."

Xue Yangyang was now very familiar with playing dumb.

After hearing what Xue Qingqing said, she naturally pretended to understand and nodded foolishly.

"Listen to my sister, listen to my sister!"

"What a fool! She's still dreaming of marrying the young marquis!" Xue Qingqing looked her up and down and snorted coldly.

"Wishful thinking! Wishful thinking! Hahaha!" Xue Yangyang clapped his hands and kept repeating like a tape recorder.

After the car passed the checkpoint of the imperial city, it took another incense stick of time to reach the Wuyang Gate of the palace city.

The Wuyang Gate was heavily guarded by the Imperial Guards, so the carriage had to stop here.

"Alright! Stop talking. Follow me after we get off the bus!" Xue Qingqing glared at Xue Yangyang impatiently.

When the two got off the carriage, the accompanying maid and coachman had no choice but to send them there.

After entering Wuyang Gate, a row of maids with serious expressions and strict etiquette were waiting for the relatives of various families.

"You two are the two young ladies from the Left Prime Minister's residence. Follow me this way!"

A maid with delicate and gentle features came up and was about to lead them there.

Judging from the situation, these maids must know all the people who came to the birthday banquet today, otherwise how could they ask so accurately right away.

Xue Yangyang was only concerned with admiration.

However, Xue Qingqing looked like a young girl who had never seen the world. She couldn't stop sweating even when holding Xue Yangyang's hand.

He just shouted that he would follow her today, but Xue Yangyang was quite confused.

Walk along the towering corridors on both sides to the end, pass through the glazed corridors in the courtyard planted with peonies and roses, bypass a tall Taihu rock, and follow the distant fragrance of peach blossoms.

The pavilions and towers are hidden among the flowers and trees, like a fairyland on earth in April.

The pink petals made Xue Yangyang's face look like a juicy peach. With the peach-like silk dress she was wearing, it was no exaggeration to say that she was a flower fairy.

The breeze blew gently, and everyone's eyes were immediately focused on Xue Yangyang.

"How beautiful! Look!"

"That's right, who is that poor family!" A platform was built in the main hall of Fuyuan Palace. At this moment, the empress dowager was looking at the peach blossoms in the company of a group of female officials and their wives, but she never expected to see such a scene.

"That's Xue Yangyang, the eldest daughter of the Left Prime Minister, Your Majesty the Queen Mother!" Lord Qiao had just met Yangyang a few days ago, so now was a good time to comply.

"Yang Yang, what a good name! It means a great country!" Queen Mother Zhou smiled, "Quick, let the little girl come over, let me take a closer look!"

Lord Qiao took the order and signaled the maid beside him to pass the message quickly.

The maid who had just brought in the two daughters of the Xue family was also dazzled for a moment, and stood there watching Xue Yangyang immersed in the flower forest.

If the maid who came to pass on the message hadn't reminded her, the matter would have almost gone wrong.

"Sister, the Queen Mother asked the eldest daughter of the Xue family to move to the front of the main hall. She wants to take a look."

"Okay, sister, go ahead, I'll take Miss Xue over right away."

The maid leading the way walked up to Xue Yangyang and said, "Miss Xue, come with me!"

Xue Qingqing saw that the maid was too snobbish, and only focused on Yangyang, as if she wanted to put herself aside.

So he put his arms around Xue Yangyang tightly,

"This maid doesn't know that my sister is very dull and needs the help of a younger sister like me."

Xue Yangyang only said one thing from his heart, "I really will thank you!"

Xue Qingqing then helped him along like a twisted dough stick, and after a few steps, she was led by a maid to the Queen Mother.

Even if Xue Qingqing was not very tactful, she knew that this person was today's protagonist, the Empress Dowager, after seeing her elegant attire and resolute and harmonious temperament.

"Your Highness, Queen Mother, I am Xue..."

Before Xue Yangyang could finish his words, the Queen Mother stepped forward and grabbed Yangyang.

"Tell me, what is your name?"

Yangyang originally wanted to just meet her, but he never expected to be treated so kindly by the Queen Mother.

I suddenly remembered my grandmother who passed away not long ago due to Alzheimer's disease.

My eyes suddenly became watery, and I wanted to hug this loving queen mother in front of me.

"Can I call you grandma?"

If I had said anything else, I would have looked less like a fool.

On the contrary, this heartfelt remark made him sound like a complete fool in the eyes of everyone.

"Your Majesty the Queen, please calm down. My sister has been a little mentally retarded since she was young. Please forgive her!" Xue Qingqing, who was standing by, broke out in a cold sweat and could not help but bow to apologize.

"Fool!"

"It really is……"

The onlookers immediately began to murmur, and couldn't help casting mocking or sympathetic glances at Xue Yangyang.

"Haha!" The Queen Mother continued to stroke Xue Yangyang's hand, but ignored the other people's words, "I think Yangyang is a very good girl. If you want to call me grandma, just call me grandma. Don't worry about what they say!"

Xue Yangyang sobbed a bit, and for the first time, he felt that being a fool was not such a bad thing.

After all, in modern times, she was a wild girl whose father and mother didn't love her, but she grew up with her grandmother.

The biggest regret in her heart was that she didn't let her grandmother enjoy a peaceful life before she passed away.

After her grandmother passed away, she felt more and more that there was nothing in this world worth her efforts, so she just lived day by day.

"I want to hug you! Hug you!" Yangyang bravely snuggled in the arms of the Queen Mother.

"Oh my! This girl! So naughty!" The Queen Mother stroked Yangyang's hair and smiled dotingly.

At this moment, in the corridor of the side hall, the man in black clothes just happened to see this scene.

"General, the birthday gift that person sent has just been checked by the Ministry of Rites. There is no problem!"

"He came all the way to Beijing, it's impossible that he came just to attend a birthday party!"

The man in black crushed the licorice in his hand. He thought that he had to go and meet him in person!
