"This child is so likable. No wonder your brother Heng always praises you in front of me!" The Queen Mother looked at Wen Heng with a smile and nodded slightly, agreeing with his vision.
[He praised me? Why did he praise me? What was his intention?]
When Wen Heng heard the little girl's questioning voice, he really wanted to roll his eyes. Doesn't this girl suspect that he is going to kill her?
Is it that difficult?
"Brother Wen Heng is also very good!" Xia Zhiliao's words were still very nice no matter what she thought in her heart, "He is very filial. He knows that you like to eat sweets and he also knows your physical condition. Otherwise, I would not know that you have diabetes."
Wen Heng curled his lips, "How can I be as good as you say?"
"Yes!" The Queen Mother laughed, "The girl Zhiliao is right. You are a filial brother."
"You two, you praise him, he praises you, your relationship is really good."
【You read it wrong! 】
Xia Zhiliao forced a smile.
The Empress Dowager really liked this girl Xia Zhiliao, who was good at talking, knew the rules, and most importantly, was very likable. All her attention was focused on Xia Zhiliao, to the point of ignoring Xia Chenshi, who had been standing beside her for a long time and looked a little restrained.
"Zhiluo, this is your mother?"
"Your Majesty, it's my mother." Xia Zhiliao said sweetly.
The Empress Dowager nodded and was very satisfied with Xia Chen's demeanor. Although she was a little nervous, she did not look like someone from a poor family.
"Come closer, let me see what kind of person can raise such a good child?"
Xia Chen was a little at a loss. Xia Zhiliao gently pushed her mother, and then Xia Chen took a step forward.
The Empress Dowager was quite old and her eyes were blurry. She squinted to look and suddenly took a breath.
Xia Chen became even more uneasy. Did she offend the Empress Dowager?
Xia Zhiliao subconsciously looked at Wen Heng. She didn't know why she did that, but she just looked.
Wen Heng frowned and asked the question on behalf of the mother and daughter, "Grandmother, what's wrong?"
He didn't think that it was Aunt Xia who made a mistake and offended the Empress Dowager, but he wondered if it was related to her life experience.
"Nothing. When she raised her head just now, I felt a little dazed, as if I saw a young person."
[Who is this? Could it be someone who can find clues to my mother's life experience? ]
Xia Zhiliao was excited, but she knew that the old lady in front of her was not an ordinary person, so she had to be careful with her words.
Wen Heng heard her anxious voice and helped her, "Grandmother, who did you think of?"
"It just so happens that this Aunt Xia was separated from her parents when she was young, and has been looking for her parents ever since!"
However, the Queen Mother shook her head and said, "I remember you mentioned this to me before."
"Grandmother has a very good memory. I did mention it before."
The Empress Dowager looked at Xia Chen again, but still shook her head, making people even more confused.
"There is something of Princess Yi Yang's youthful look in her expression just now."
[Princess Yiyang, didn't her child die? ]
Xia Zhiliao listened carefully.
"But her child wasn't..."
"That's right!" The Queen Mother interrupted Wen Heng, not wanting to hear the next word, and not wanting to hear it. "That's why I said it's impossible."
[Princess Yiyang's daughter is dead, but the Queen Mother said that my mother looks like Princess Yiyang when she was young, so is there any misunderstanding here? Maybe my mother really comes from a famous family? ]
"Grandmother, this aunt's embroidery is very similar to that of the embroiderer in Princess Yiyang's mansion. Do you think there is something in it..."
The Queen Mother's eyes lit up. "Is there such a thing? But... it shouldn't be. Princess Yiyang buried her daughter with her own hands. If she really made a mistake, how could she not recognize her? Moreover, now she..."
Xia Zhiliao really wanted to ask, what happened to Princess Yi Yang? If she saw her mother, would she be able to recognize her?
Unfortunately, Wen Heng did not ask for her, but shook his head at her.
That means you can’t ask anymore.
But Xia Zhiliao was anxious. Now that things had come to this, she really wanted to get to the bottom of it.
[My mother was well aware of the etiquette and rules when she entered the palace just now. This is not a coincidence! ]
Wen Heng frowned. Even so, he couldn't be anxious.
Moreover, we must not let the Xia family say this, otherwise it would seem that they have ulterior motives.
"The Emperor has arrived!"
The eunuch's unique voice broke the silence in the room.
The Empress Dowager looked at Xia Chen again, wondering what she was thinking.
When Emperor Shunde entered the room, Xia Zhiliao and her daughter knelt on the ground to greet him.
He strode over, "Mother, how is it?"
"You haven't watched it yet? You're just busy talking. Zhiluo, this girl is really lovable. I like her."
Emperor Shunde glanced at the mother and daughter kneeling on the ground, then let them stand up.
"Is it the prescription you prescribed when you asserted that the Queen Mother had diabetes? You are so brave at such a young age that you actually dared to prescribe a prescription for the Queen Mother."
Xia Zhiliao was still a little nervous. This was the emperor and her life could be in danger at any moment.
"Your Majesty, I... I didn't know it was the Queen Mother at the time. My brother only said it was his grandmother."
Emperor Shunde looked at Xia Zhiliao without a smile, "If you knew his grandmother was the Queen Mother, wouldn't you prescribe a prescription?"
Everyone looked at Xia Zhiliao, including Wen Heng.
Xia Zhiliao took a deep breath and said, "Open it."
Emperor Shunde was very interested in this answer. "Why? Aren't you afraid of being beheaded if you can't cure it?"
"Why can't it be cured? The Empress Dowager is suffering from diabetes, and the medicine I prescribed is correct. No matter whether she is the Empress Dowager or an ordinary old lady, doctors don't distinguish between rich and poor, only the most important and the most urgent. They prescribe the right medicine and don't consider the status of the patient!"
After Xia Zhiliao finished speaking, she secretly clenched her hands, not knowing whether these remarks could scare Emperor Shunde.
I hope so.
Emperor Shunde was silent for a moment, then burst into laughter, "Little girl, is this what you wanted to say?"
Xia Zhi nodded, "Yeah, am I wrong?"
"No, you said it very well." The Queen Mother said, her eyes changed from pure love to admiration, "Your Majesty, I am right, this child is very special."
Emperor Shunde nodded, "It's ok that he's so young and has extraordinary medical skills, but he's quite courageous to say such words to me."
"Your Majesty, can't I tell you? But you don't look fierce."
Emperor Shunde laughed even louder. The little girl spoke in simple terms, but he understood her. She didn't think she was scary, so she just said what she thought.
He curled his lips and said, "Come and take a look. How is the Queen Mother recovering now?"
Xia Zhiliao smiled and nodded, her back slightly sweaty, but she knew that she had passed.
She didn't want to get close to Emperor Shunde, she just wanted to keep her distance from him.
