The two ran for a long time and finally hid in a side room.
Tai Jingwan's heart was beating angrily.
She was thinking about the dangerous scene just now. She didn't know what gift Jiang Jinyue had given her, but she almost lost her life.
"The little girl was very brave just now." The Queen Mother said to Tai Jingwan in front of her.
The Queen Mother worshipped Buddha all year round and seldom met the families of ministers, so naturally she had never seen Tai Jingwan.
However, the Queen Mother had seen Lady Lou before, and at this moment, when she looked at Tai Jingwan, she felt that she looked somewhat familiar.
"Madam, are you okay?" Tai Jingwan turned around and looked at the kind old lady and asked with concern.
"I'm fine. I'm just an old man, what can happen to me?" said the Queen Mother with a smile.
"Madam, why did that man want to kill you?" Tai Jingwan asked in confusion. After all, from what she saw of the old lady, she didn't seem like the type to attract bad luck.
"Alas, as I get older, I may not be as likable as before," the Queen Mother said self-deprecatingly.
...
...
Tai Jingwan thought about the old lady at home who was always making trouble, then looked at the Queen Mother and said with a smile: "I think you look very kind, and you don't look like an unpleasant person at first glance."
"Oh? Have you ever seen an unpleasant person, little girl?" The Queen Mother asked with great interest.
"I guess I have met him before." Tai Jingwan thought for a moment and said with a smile.
However, she couldn't slander her mother-in-law in front of outsiders. If it got out, she would be considered unfilial.
"It seems that the little girl also has a story." The Queen Mother said with a smile as she looked at Tai Jingwan in front of her.
"Madam, why aren't you worried at all? What if that man catches up with us?" Tai Jingwan looked at the old lady, who seemed like nothing had happened, and couldn't help feeling a little strange.
"Didn't you save me? What are you worried about? If the bad guys come, don't you still exist?" The empress dowager was naturally not afraid. After all, the empress dowager was the empress dowager, but she had accompanied the late emperor into battle to kill the enemy.
Although the scene today is dangerous, it is not half as dangerous as the scene on the battlefield back then.
It’s just that I’m older now, and my skills aren’t as good as they used to be.
"Madam, I was able to rescue you just now because I took advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness. If that man comes again now, I, a weak woman, will not be able to defeat him." Tai Jingwan said helplessly.
I was wondering in my heart, this old lady, why doesn't she look very smart?
He must be scared silly.
"That seems to be the truth." The Queen Mother was in a good mood. After all, it was rare for someone to talk to her like this.
In the past, everyone who met me always flattered me.
The Queen Mother actually found this lively little girl quite interesting when she suddenly showed up.
Thinking of her unmarried nephew, the Queen Mother felt that this girl was quite suitable for him.
"I wonder which family the girl belongs to? I'll have someone send a gift to her some other day?" asked the Queen Mother.
"No, no, I didn't do anything." Tai Jingwan waved her hand a little embarrassedly.
After all, she saved people and never thought about asking for anything in return.
However, the Queen Mother felt even more satisfied when she saw Tai Jingwan like this.
She is a good girl for not taking any action to repay a favor, and I gave Tai Jingwan another point in my heart.
The old and the young started chatting like this.
"Madam, it's getting late. My family can't find me and they must be worried. I should go back. Did you come here alone?" Tai Jingwan looked at the silence outside and thought that the man in black didn't chase after her anymore.
She was also worried that if she left for too long, Jiang Jinyue would be anxious to find someone.
"Well, let's go. Let me see if those people are in a hurry to find me." The Queen Mother said with a smile.
However, she was naturally aware that those people would probably go crazy looking for her.
Tai Jingwan carefully helped the empress dowager out of the room.
"Madam, in order to prevent the man in black from coming again, I think we should run to where there are more people." Tai Jingwan said after thinking for a while.
"Why? What if that man goes crazy, won't he hurt more people?" the Queen Mother asked puzzledly.
"That man obviously has bad intentions. If we go to a crowded place, he should not dare to act rashly." Tai Jingwan thought for a while and said.
The Queen Mother nodded again in her heart. This girl is very smart.
When encountering problems, she would consider the consequences. The more the empress dowager looked at Tai Jingwan, the more she liked her.
"Then I'll listen to you." The Queen Mother said with a smile.
The two soon arrived at the crowded lobby.
Gratitude Temple was already a popular place, and the empress dowager had just disappeared for a while, so the people who followed were looking for her like crazy. Suddenly, they saw the empress dowager being supported by a young woman. The guards all suspected that Tai Jingwan was the one who had held the empress dowager hostage.
The Minister of Personnel Tai Hesong, who was anxious to find someone, heard the news and also came to Gratitude Temple to help look for someone.
When he turned around, he was dumbfounded to see the Queen Mother with his own daughter.
"Madam, can you see if you can find the family members who came here with you?" Looking at the crowded crowd at this time, Tai Jingwan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Where there are many people, the criminals will definitely not dare to come out.
Otherwise, why would the man in black choose to attack in a place where there was no one around?
I don’t know who attracted the attention of this old lady, but who actually wanted to kill her.
Thinking of this, Tai Jingwan looked at the Queen Mother with some sympathy.
"I'll have to take a good look at that old woman," said the Queen Mother, smiling. But in his heart he was looking around, wondering why his good-for-nothing grandson didn't come?
If he comes, I can help connect the two of them.
Thinking of this, the Queen Mother felt that she must wait until Wei Xiuyuan arrived before she would give up.
"Tai..." Eunuch Liu beside the Empress Dowager looked at her and wanted to step forward, but was stopped by a look from the Empress Dowager.
Eunuch Liu looked embarrassed, but since the Queen Mother did not respond, they did not dare to step forward.
Tai Hesong was about to step forward but was stopped by Eunuch Liu.
"Oh, Lord Tai, wait a minute." Eunuch Liu quickly grabbed Tai Hesong, fearing that Tai Hesong would ruin the Queen Mother's plans.
"Eunuch Liu, the Queen Mother..." Tai Hesong was curious and didn't understand why his daughter was with the Queen Mother.
"Lord Tai, the Queen Mother is fine. Please don't go over and disturb her." Eunuch Liu said with a smile.
Tai Hesong just watched his daughter and the empress dowager wandering around Gratitude Temple aimlessly.
Several times, he wanted to step forward, but was stopped by Eunuch Liu.
Jiang Jinyue, who was standing by, was also watching Tai Jingwan accompanying someone and looking for something.
"Miss, why don't you go find the eldest young master's wife?" Ruyi asked in confusion.
"I saw that lady seemed to be looking for someone. Sister will definitely come back after she is done with her work. Besides, the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion is so chaotic, so let's just take a break here." Jiang Jinyue found an opportunity to say.
