Chapter 277 The Queen Mother summoned several concubines

In the Yongshou Palace, the empress dowager smiled and waved her hand to signal Zhang Shui'er and Tang Wanrou to stand up.

"Why didn't the Queen come with you?"

Ever since her trip to the border, she has found this daughter-in-law more and more difficult to understand.

Thinking of the estrangement between the Empress and the Emperor, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Everything was fine back then, and the two of them had a sweet time after their marriage. How come it became like this now?

Zhang Shuier bowed slightly, "Your Majesty, when I came here, the Lu sisters had just entered the palace to pay their respects to you."

"Oh, those two girls entered the palace?"

The Queen Mother's eyes lit up instantly. The two girls had entered the palace... There should be something fun to listen to today!

When Zhang Shui'er looked up, she saw that the Empress Dowager looked somewhat happy. She thought of the strange atmosphere in Changchun Palace just now, and felt that she was afraid that she would disappoint the Empress Dowager today.

Although she didn't know what had happened, she just felt that Lu Er had changed.

As the Queen Mother waited anxiously, the Queen and the Lu sisters finally appeared.

After the three of them paid their respects, the Queen Mother could not wait to offer them seats.

"What have you guys been busy with lately? Your wedding is coming up soon, right?"

Although the Empress Dowager had heard a lot about what was going on in the capital, there were very few things that she took to heart.

Only the few people in front of her could remind her that they were all engaged and their wedding dates were approaching.

Zhang Shui'er was a little shy and turned away timidly.

After she met Lu Xinran a few days ago, she went back home and told her family about how she married her neighbor Cui Sheng and followed him to Yuchengguan.

Her grandfather and father both strongly agreed. Although the Earl's Mansion was a bit chaotic before, it has now been divided and those messy illegitimate children have all moved out of the Earl's Mansion. They will no longer affect the reputation of the Earl's Mansion in the future.

They already liked Cui Shenglin, and now he had other plans, so it would be best for Zhang Shuier to go with him to Yucheng Pass.

However, whether the Bo family and Cui Sheng’s neighbors would agree still needs to be negotiated between the two families.

Qiu's bottom line was that if they agreed that Zhang Shui'er would go to Yucheng Pass with her husband after the two of them got married, then the marriage would proceed as normal.

If she disagrees or cannot give a clear answer, then let Cui Shenglin come back and cancel the engagement.

This matter has already been raised by a middleman at the Earl's Mansion, but there has been no clear reply from there yet. So when Zhang Shui'er heard the Queen Mother mention their marriage, she couldn't help feeling shy and at the same time felt a little worried.

On the contrary, Lu Xinran and her sister are more open-minded than the other. They believe that it is natural for men to get married when they are old enough and for women to get married when they are old enough. There is nothing to be shy about!

For them, getting married is like completing a mission, but who cares about the mission sincerely?

If they were tempted by this kind of time and space, they would most likely be doomed, and they... couldn't and didn't dare.

The two of them were so calm and frank that the Queen Mother couldn't help but look at them a few more times: "Xinlan, your wedding date is the earliest, right?"

If she remembered correctly, this girl was going to marry into the Tang family.

Lu Xinlan responded calmly, "Your Majesty, my wedding date is November 16th. I am indeed the first one among the three of you to get married."

While she was talking, Tang Wanrou couldn't help but look at her. Compared with her older brother who was always grinning foolishly, she was so calm and composed...her silly older brother was going to suffer.

Lu Xinran thought about his wedding date and said with some uncertainty: "Your Majesty, my wedding date should be on the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month."

The Queen Mother burst out laughing: "The tenth day is the tenth day, there is no need to talk about it."

These two girls are really interesting. This is the first time she has met people who are so indifferent to marriage.

But these are not important. She has already asked people to find a few other concubines. She must find a way to go over all the old events today.

The fighting in the imperial harem never stopped. No matter how careful she was, she would always fall into the hands of the emperor.

There is still a chance to resolve the doubts in her heart, so she should not waste this opportunity.

Several concubines entered the Yongshou Palace with great trepidation. The last time those three came to the Yongshou Palace, something bad happened to them not long after.

Not only them, but also their families suffered. Isn't it their turn this time?

Several people sat on round stools, and their legs under their skirts could not help trembling.

The Queen Mother did not ask anyone to dig out old things this time. She just said casually, "What a coincidence today. My Yongshou Palace has not been so lively for a long time."

None of the concubines dared to look her in the eye; they all nodded randomly and submissively.

Lu Xinran had guessed the Queen Mother's purpose the moment she met the concubines, and she pretended to be dumb without changing her expression.

The Queen Mother wanted her to help look up past events, so she might as well join in the fun like she used to.

Anyway, the melons are not eaten in vain, and you can gain a lot of health points every time.

"I've been dreaming about the time when we first entered the palace. I remember that time, you guys were the most favored."

After hearing what she said, several people knelt on the ground without thinking.

In those days, they almost all relied on their favor to embarrass the Queen Mother.

No one would have thought that after so many years, there would be a day when people would be held accountable for what happened.

"What are you doing? Get up quickly. I am just thinking back to the past. When I gave birth to the emperor, I almost had a dystocia and didn't survive."

Did the Queen Mother also have a difficult birth that year?

Lu Xinran was originally thinking about completing the task, but when he heard her say this, he suddenly became curious and curious.

【Let me see what happened back then. 】

Even if she doesn't want to watch it, the Queen Mother will find ways to make her watch it.

She excitedly opened the Queen Mother's booklet and asked the system to load it.

[Eh, the Queen Mother didn't give birth to a full-term baby back then.]

[She took all precautions but still couldn't prevent someone from putting labor-inducing drugs in her food. Her water broke before the full term, and it happened in the middle of the night. The imperial physician on duty in the palace was not the one who checked her pulse.]

[If Su Hongyu hadn't been there to help her summon the imperial physician and try to calm her mind, even if she could have given birth to the emperor, her body would have certainly been damaged.]

There is no way to live a stable life to this age.

The Queen Mother thought of the various things that happened during the childbirth and how Su Hongyu treated her with all her heart, and her heart couldn't help but feel a little nervous again.

It would be great if she were still here.

Together, they became the empress dowager and concubine dowager in glory, and no longer had to live in fear.

What a pity! She raised her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes while stroking her temples.
