After a long time, the queen mother raised her head, and when she saw Du Xuechun kneeling on the ground, she immediately said to Su Lian, "How are you all working as errands? The queen has been kneeling on the ground for such a long time without reminding Lae Jia."
Su Lian hurriedly said, "The Queen Mother is very filial to the Queen Mother, and the old slave dare not disturb."
Du Xuechun smiled secretly in her heart. She had seen a lot of methods like the Queen Mother in her previous life, and she was always stunned. Du Xuechun used to feel panic in her heart, but now it seems to be extremely ridiculous.
"Report to the Queen Mother, the children are not tired." Du Xuechun said, there was no dissatisfaction in his eyes, and he looked dignified and reserved.
If Du Xuechun shouts tired, or complains on her face, the queen mother can grab her handle and talk. But Du Xuechun's hard work and resentment made her unable to fault her.
The queen mother looked at Du Xuechun with cold and jealous eyes, and she felt a strange feeling towards Du Xuechun for no reason. This woman was afraid that she would be annoying in the future.
Thinking of this, she coughed and said, "You have filial piety, get up."
Du Xuechun slowly got up and stood still. She remembered the rules of not being allowed to sit without the Queen Mother’s approval. She had suffered a great loss because of this in her previous life. She looked at the Queen Mother with a smile on her face.
The Queen Mother was taken aback for a moment, and she forcibly resisted the dissatisfaction in her heart and said, "Give you a seat and serve tea."
She once inquired that Du Xuechun, this woman, was clearly a wild girl from the country. Although it was no wonder that she had helped herself through the coolness before, it was just a coincidence.
No matter how smart she is, she doesn't understand the rules of this palace if she doesn't understand it, but now, the nobleness she carries with her gestures almost makes the queen mother feel that Du Xuechun is a woman who grew up in this palace. .
Du Xuechun sat down gracefully, sitting dignifiedly.
The Queen Mother looked at her, seeing Du Xuechun's eyes like lacquer, lips like applying grease, and her skin whiter than snow, she felt a little emotional right now. When she sat in the position of the queen, she was at this age, even a few years older than Du Xuechun, but she was far less calm than Du Xuechun.
Recalling that when I first met the Queen Mother, her legs were trembling, and she was caught in the wrong place all day.
The trembling at that time is still vivid in retrospect. The more gloomy her eyes were, the more Du Xuechun kept dripping like this, the more disturbed she felt. Often such a woman is the most difficult to deal with. It's just that the woman in front of her is so young, she doesn't believe it, what else can Du Xuechun make.
"Is the queen's body better?" Thinking of this, the queen mother raised her eyebrows and asked. She naturally knows Du Xuechun's situation some time ago. Hearing from the palace, Du Xuechun seemed to be suffering from the illness, and was even unable to get up the other day.
What she was not sure in her heart was why Du Xuechun got sick.
If Du Xuechun had Gu poison, then all the plans of her and the Xue family were finished!
The most important thing is that seeing Du Xuechun standing here with good grace at the moment proves that Feng Xuanche already knows what poison Du Xuechun is suffering. Isn't their plan to be exposed?
Thinking of this, her heart was pounding, but the queen mother's face always carried an alienated and jealous smile, and her expression remained unchanged.
Hearing this, Du Xuechun replied,
If you return to the queen mother, the body of the son is no longer a serious problem. Thank you for your concern.
Upon seeing this, the Queen Mother asked, "I just don't know, what kind of disease do you have, and you are so aggressive?" She raised her brows and looked at Du Xuechun with deep meaning.
No one has revealed Du Xuechun's condition until now, only that he fainted. Reminiscent of Tang Rulan's sudden death, no wonder the Queen Mother and others thought about it.
Hearing this, Du Xuechun smiled, she knew that the Xue family would definitely inquire about her condition. After all, they were just people who bought Gu, and didn't know that this Gu poison would split into two, and at the same time affect Feng Xuan Che and his body.
"Erchen is just a little tired, so I fainted. To make the empress dowager worry, it is the Erchen's fault." Du Xuechun's tone of alienation and respect made the queen mother startled.
However, after a while, the queen mother smiled and said, "That's good, knowing that you are all in good health, so will Ai Jia's health."
"Thank you for your concern about the Queen Mother." Du Xuechun replied. She didn't talk too much or was rude. That was how she could make the Queen Mother even more helpless.
Sure enough, every word of Du Xuechun made the empress dowager's face become more and more iron. She endured and endured, and asked, "The empress came to Lae's family today, but what's the matter?"
She had heard that, above the court, everyone was fighting against the queen in unison. I am afraid that now, Du Xuechun is already flustered, so he came to find himself.
Hearing this, Du Xuechun said, "My son came here today, and there is indeed something to discuss with the Queen Mother."
"What's the matter?" The Queen Mother took a sip of tea slowly, without even looking at Du Xuechun. As long as Du Xuechun had something to ask for, she could dominate her.
These days, although she is the queen mother, who in the entire palace does not know that she is not Feng Xuanche's biological mother? Everyone knew that his own son died in Feng Xuanche's hands, and since Feng Xuanche became the throne, he has never stepped into Ci Ning Palace. Although the servant didn't dare to insult at will, the disdain in her eyes made her feel bored.
Now that Du Xuechun came over, he was asking for something, thinking that he was in trouble. If they can solve the matter completely, Du Xuechun and Feng Xuanche will also value themselves as the queen mother more in the future.
Du Xuechun smiled and stretched out his hand towards Mingying. Mingyue suddenly understood, and put a vermilion book in Du Xuechun's hands.
Du Xuechun stood up, took a few steps forward, and presented the book with both hands to the Queen Mother for review, "This is the young lady of the marriageable age in Beijing that the Minister of Internal Affairs has drawn up. Most of them are families with a face in the center. Please look over and take a look. Is there something wrong with the son?"
The queen mother looked at Du Xuechun suspiciously. Didn't she hear that Du Xuechun was very stingy and that Feng Xuanche had no one in the harem, because of this Du Xuechun?
She took the notebook and slowly opened it. Seeing that the woman's name and life experience were clearly recorded on it, she was secretly startled and asked, "How did you write this notebook?"
Du Xuechun chuckled, "Erchen originally grew up in Beijing, and he knows a little bit about the temperament and family background of these aristocratic young ladies. Furthermore, Eunuch asked the eunuchs around him to check and verify before he dared to make this book."
The queen mother was clear, looking at Du Xuechun, her eyes were full of thought, "Can you decide the day of the draft?"
For the Xue family and Feng Xuanming, drafting is a good thing. This is the only thing that allows Du Qingheng and Feng Xuanming to enter the palace at the same time.
Du Xuechun shook his head, with eyes full of respect, "I dare not make any suggestions, and when I draw up a list, I will come to meet the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother will be the master."
Hearing that, the queen mother's expression was only slightly relieved, and the expression in Du Xuechun's eyes was not as sharp as before.
