The father and son took some time off and rushed over.
Because several ministers were still waiting in the Qianqing Palace, the father and son only stayed with Kezun for a quarter of an hour before leaving.
Kezun was the empress's mother and the empress of the Xiaolin tribe. Less than two hours after she entered the palace, the news had spread throughout the palace.
That night, Rongpin came to see the Queen under the pretext of taking the Crown Princess back to bed, and carefully gave the Queen the information she had obtained about several famous folk doctors.
The Queen was deeply grateful for her sincerity.
The next morning, Concubine Shu was the first to arrive. In addition to some nourishing foods, she also gave Kezun a peace locket passed down from her ancestors, wishing her a speedy recovery.
Although the gift from Concubine Shu was not very valuable, the thought behind it was extremely precious. The Queen held Concubine Shu's hand and was speechless for a long time.
Soon after, the Empress Dowager came with Concubine Li, Concubine Lin and others.
The Queen was a little surprised to see the Queen Mother come to visit her mother in person.
Although she hated the Empress Dowager to the core, she still pretended to be grateful and said with a smile, "Mother, why did you come here in person?"
The Empress Dowager pretended to be concerned and said, "Speaking of which, we are relatives. If your relative is sick, isn't it common sense to come and see him?"
As she spoke, the Queen Mother asked someone to bring out her gift.
They are some nourishing products.
"Then I would like to thank you, mother." The queen said with a smile.
At this time, Xia Miaoyuan and Xiao Wanyin walked in from outside.
Because they were worried about Ke Zun, they asked for leave from the teacher today and did not go to the main hall.
Xia Miaoyuan just saw the eunuchs from the Empress Dowager's palace in the courtyard and secretly said something was wrong.
As soon as she and Xiao Wanyin came in, they happened to see the Empress Dowager and several concubines there.
Several people were standing outside the guest room where Ke Zun was recuperating.
"I hope the Empress Dowager is well!" Xia Miaoyuan took Xiao Wanyin and bowed to the Empress Dowager.
[Hmph! The old witch came today, she must be trying to cause trouble!]
Although Xia Miaoyuan called out sweetly, she was cursing in her heart.
Since the Queen came to power, the Empress Dowager has been much more low-key and rarely comes to Kunning Palace on weekdays.
"It's Miao'er, my dear granddaughter! Let the Empress Dowager see her!" The Empress Dowager touched Xia Miaoyuan's head insincerely.
[You damn old woman, you're touching me with your claws. Pah, pah, pah!] Xia Miaoyuan was so disgusted.
"This is Wanyin, the daughter of the third son of the Xiao family, right?" The Empress Dowager turned her eyes to Xiao Wanyin and asked.
"That's right," the queen replied.
"Wanyin is so cute!" The Queen Mother gave a fake smile.
As soon as she finished speaking, the Empress Dowager walked into the inner room and said, "I will go to see Mr. Kezun."
[Oh no, the old witch is going to cause trouble! ]
Xia Miaoyuan thought about it and stepped forward to stop her: "Grandmother, my grandmother is still asleep. It's inconvenient to visit her."
The Queen knew that the Queen Mother must have come with ill intentions, so she quickly blocked the door and said, "Mother, my mother is still in a coma and should not see anyone."
The Empress Dowager clenched her hands fiercely in her wide sleeves and said with a smile, "I don't really need to chat with Ke Zun. I'm just worried about her and want to take a look."
"I haven't seen her for more than two years. Now I heard that she is sick, and I am very worried."
Lipin stepped forward and said at the right moment: "Sister Queen, the Queen Mother just wants to see Kezun. Just open the door and let her take a look, and the old lady will feel at ease."
Xia Miaoyuan looked the Empress Dowager up and down. "If you were so kind, the sun would rise in the east."
My grandmother is ill, and you wish she would die immediately. How dare you say you're worried about her?
The Empress Dowager and Concubine Li stood together with aggressive eyes. After hearing her daughter's voice, the Queen became even more determined not to let the Empress Dowager in.
"Mother, it's not that I don't understand your feelings. It's just that my mother is in a coma. Furthermore, the odor in the ward is unpleasant, and my mother looks horrible. I'm afraid it might disturb your arrival."
"If I really disturb the phoenix carriage, I will not be able to explain to the emperor."
"Why don't you wait a few days until my mother's condition improves and then go to Shoukang Palace to meet you in person."
[Mom is so great!] Xia Miaoyuan couldn't help but praise in her heart.
Concubine Li and the Empress Dowager sang the same tune, originally wanting to use filial piety to kidnap the Queen and force her to open the door and let them in.
Unexpectedly, the queen retaliated in his own way and responded with filial piety.
The Queen's words were reasonable and were entirely for the good of the Empress Dowager.
Later on, she even brought up Xia Zhengqi, leaving the Empress Dowager and Concubine Li speechless.
The two of them had no choice but to walk away embarrassedly.
The Empress Dowager came today because she really couldn't hold her fart in. She originally planned to provoke Ke Zun as much as possible and send her to see the King of Hell as soon as possible.
People with mental illness are most afraid of verbal stimulation.
"Well, then, I won't watch it today. It's just a pity." The Empress Dowager smiled awkwardly and sat on the armchair in the outer room.
"Then Queen, let's talk." The Queen Mother looked at the Queen meaningfully.
This look was caught by Xia Miaoyuan. [The old woman must not have given up yet. I wonder what else she wants to do.]
Xia Miaoyuan and Xiao Wanyin pretended to play Nine Rings on the side, but they kept glancing at the Empress Dowager out of the corner of their eyes.
After the other concubines put down their gifts for the queen, they all took their leave.
"Okay, mother, we haven't chatted for a long time." The queen said while suppressing her nausea.
There was a "pop" sound, and the voice came from beside the Empress Dowager.
Everyone was shocked and turned to look. The tea bowl next to the Empress Dowager had fallen to the ground and broken into pieces.
"Oh, I'm old, and my hands aren't as nimble as before." The Queen Mother pretended to blame herself, but the corners of her mouth curled up quickly.
[The old woman is deliberately waking up my grandmother. I'm afraid she'll do something bad again. What should I do?]
[No, no, we can't just sit there and wait for death. We have to drive the old woman away quickly!]
Xia Miaoyuan's eyes turned and he pulled Xiao Wanyin out.
The little palace maid hurried forward to pick up the broken pieces.
Before the maids had finished collecting the debris, the Empress Dowager spoke up, "Queen, how is the war in the northern border going now?"
"The war is a secret. I abide by the ancestral precept that the harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs, so I am unaware of it."
The Empress Dowager continued, "Is there any news about your little sister, Xiao Zilan?"
