Chapter 161: Chapter 161
Lu Xiang's heart tightened, and she walked slowly to the Empress Dowager.

Even if the queen mother has no real power in the harem, this woman is not easy to mess with.

In her previous life, she had frequent contact with the queen mother, and every time she felt tired like fighting a war.

Lu Xiang raised her head slightly, but her eyes were always lowered, humble and respectful.

The Empress Dowager just stared at her like this, and then smiled lightly after a while: "You really are a stunning and beautiful girl."

After she finished speaking, she heard another soft and gentle voice from the pavilion: "Yes, looking at the capital, there is no other family whose daughter has such an outstanding appearance. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is the most beautiful woman in the capital."

"Your servant girl Pu Liu's posture, I don't dare to be praised as a concubine, I'm really terrified." Lu Xiang knelt down nervously, and didn't dare to look at the speaker, but she felt vaguely familiar with the voice.

She calls herself a concubine, so she must be a concubine in this palace.

A good woman really opened her mouth. If she said this, wouldn't she be drowned with spittle by those noble ladies in the capital?

What is the number one beauty in the capital, she dare not call herself like that.

Those princely daughters who grew up pampered and pampered are everywhere with outstanding appearance.

Is this concubine going to make her the target of public criticism? She has a soft and beautiful voice, but why is she thinking so viciously?

and many more……

In the harem, there seems to be a concubine with a gentle voice in her memory who is worthy of the title.

Concubine Xian? !
It seemed to confirm Lu Xiang's guess, and then came Chu Pan'er's angry voice: "Don't underestimate the imperial grandmother, so what about her beauty, she is very scheming."

Lu Xiang: "..."

It really is Concubine Xian.

Grandma, this woman with a needle hidden in the cotton is simply the most disguised woman in the entire harem.

Lu Xiang met her several times in her previous life, because the identity of Xiao Muheng, the young master, was calculated once by the concubine Xian.

Concubines with sons, no one would be willing to live a mediocre life in the harem, even if the son was not born to the concubine Xian.

"Pan'er, don't be rude." Yidao reprimanded Chu Pan'er feigning anger, but her soft voice has the softness unique to Jiangnan women, so even if it is a lesson, it sounds powerless: " It’s my fault, it’s frightening you, get up quickly.”

Concubine Xian smiled lightly, and got up to help Lu Xiang up herself.

Lu Xiang stood up, raised her eyes slightly and saw a gentle and beautiful face in front of her.

The sun shone down and fell on Concubine Xian's glamorous side face, as if a light layer of golden light had been cast on her. Following her movements, the steps above her head swayed slightly, making her whole person look dignified and charming.

The queen mother also criticized Chu Pan'er at the right time: "You child, you have been straightforward since you were a child, and you never speak out of your head. You really offend people without knowing it."

Lu Xiang: "..."

Hehe, I am afraid that you, the old lady, may have misunderstood the word straightforward.

Chu Pan'er is straightforward?
That's clearly domineering, okay?

Chu Pan'er was not afraid when she heard the queen mother's reprimand, she stuck out her tongue playfully, sat beside the queen mother, held her arm and shook her head coquettishly: "Oh, grandma, Pan'er is outspoken and has something to say Well."

"You... When will you change your temper?" The Queen Mother poked Chu Pan'er's forehead with a light smile, seeming to love her very much.

Lu Xiang looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, silently watching the performance of several people.

As long as you are happy to stage a scene of deep love between grandparents and grandchildren.

Besides, nine out of ten people in this palace are wearing masks, they are the empress. Before Lu Xiang came into contact with her, her impression of the empress had been left in the indifference and arrogance of her previous life.

"Got it, Grandmother." Chu Pan'er bowed at the Queen Mother like a puppy, flattering her.

The Empress Dowager's smile gradually deepened, and when she heard her cute answer, she turned her head to look at Lu Xiang and said, "I've been hearing people in the palace say how much the Empress likes you, and I think you are a caring and sensible girl, come, sit down and talk to Aijia .”

"Yes."

Lu Xiang wailed in her heart, walked over with a sincere and fearful face, and sat down on the stone bench pointed by the Queen Mother.

Butt only dare to sit a third.

"Tell Aijia, how did you meet the queen? The queen has been in the palace for more than ten years, and Aijia has never seen her like anyone so much."

The queen mother smiled slightly while holding the teacup.

Started to talk quietly, Lu Xiang was secretly in his heart.

"By the way, I heard that you guys met in Yangning City after she left the palace, right? This is really a fate." The queen mother took a sip of tea and said again.

The corner of Lu Xiang's mouth raised a decent smile, and said respectfully: "To be loved by the empress is really a blessing that I have cultivated in several lifetimes. The acquaintance between the minister and the empress is purely accidental, but it is because my father was Yang Ning at that time. The magistrate of the city had a chance encounter with the empress, and never wanted to make the empress empress take it to heart, so this time I went to Beijing and was summoned by the empress... the minister is also very flattered."

Don't say that the queen left the palace without authorization can't be said, even if she could, she wouldn't be able to explain everything to the queen mother.

Listening to Lu Xiang's impeccable explanation, the queen mother's eyes sank slightly.

Hmph, she really is a girl who doesn't know how to flatter her.

The Empress Dowager did not like Empress Song, because after the death of the second Empress Yao, she deliberately wanted the emperor to confer Concubine Shu as the empress. Credit is the most qualified.

But the emperor didn't wait for her to bring it up, an imperial decree went to the Song family, and directly carried Song Nanyue into the middle palace.

The century-old family of the Duke of Anguo's mansion is fighting on the battlefield again. The daughter of the Duke of An's mansion is the emperor, so he is simply not too qualified.

So the Empress Dowager didn't like her, but because Empress Song was in charge of Fengyin and managed the harem, she couldn't bear it. Except for occasionally using her seniority to oppress her and make her a little trip, she hardly got any benefits in other things.

He doesn't flatter her and doesn't do things to please her. He is not at all as good as Concubine Shu.

"Oh, that's really your blessing." The queen mother said to Lu Xiang casually.

Lu Xiang pursed her lips and smiled, a shy smile with a hint of joy.

The joy of being valued by the queen.

For some reason, the queen mother looked at Lu Xiang like this, and suddenly became angry.

"Eh? Grandmother, this bracelet is so beautiful."

Suddenly, Chu Pan'er's eyes fell on a brocade box on the table, and inside the brocade box, a pair of blood-red jade bracelets lay quietly there. The whole body was red, but there was a The thin golden lines, looking carefully, seem to flow like floating clouds.

Wang Fu quickly introduced: "If you go back to Princess Nine, this is a tribute from Fanbang. This kind of jade is warm when shaking hands. It is extremely precious. It is said that it has the effect of nourishing qi, activating blood, and prolonging life. Empress Dowager, you can see how filial you are to Empress Dowager."

The queen mother smiled triumphantly: "But this bracelet is too gorgeous, and it would be nondescript for an old woman from Ai's family to wear it. Pan'er, I might as well give it to you."
