"I'm just waiting to see what happens to Marquis Anyang!"
The emperor said.
"Youth and I will definitely not let Father down."
Gao Zhi assured.
"I'll wait and see!"
"I will accompany you to see the Queen, the Queen Mother, and the Concubine Dowager!"
The Emperor said to Gao Zhijun. When the Empress and the Empress Dowager heard that he was going to adopt a goddaughter, they were all interested in Gao Zhijun and wanted to see what kind of extraordinary woman she was.
"Your son obeys your order!"
Gao Zhijun said.
So Murong Yuanbo left the imperial study and left the palace.
Gao Zhijun, Hongyue and Moxue followed the emperor and went to Fengyi Palace first to pay a visit to the queen.
When they arrived at Fengyi Palace, the Queen, the Crown Prince, and the Crown Princess were already waiting.
"Your Majesty!"
"Your son (your son's wife) greets the Emperor! May your Majesty be in good health!"
The Queen brought the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess to pay their respects to the Emperor.
"Your son greets the Queen Mother, may she live a long and healthy life!"
"The Imperial Sister pays her respects to the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess. I wish them good health!"
Gao Zhijun pays respects to the Queen, the Crown Prince, and the Crown Princess!
"Let me see what our daughter looks like."
The Queen looked at Gao Zhijun and felt very satisfied, especially her composure and lack of flattery.
"She is indeed a beauty!"
The Crown Princess also secretly looked at Gao Zhijun and admired her frankness and naturalness.
She doesn't look like a peasant girl at all. Instead, she looks more like a lady from a wealthy family than a daughter of noble birth.
The prince had already told her that this imperial sister was not only beautiful but also very smart, and it turned out to be true!
"Mother, your majesty, is too kind to praise me. I do not deserve it!"
Gao Zhijun said respectfully.
"Mother, Crown Princess, I don't have anything to give you, so I'll give you some skin care products. I made them myself."
Gao Zhijun took out two bottles and a stack of facial masks from her sleeves and gave them to the Queen and the Crown Princess respectively.
"Princess, what are these?"
The queen looked at the exquisite bottle and asked Gao Zhijun.
"Mother, that's a beauty cream. Using it will keep you young and youthful."
"That's a facial mask. When you put it on your face, your skin becomes smooth and delicate, as if water could drip out of it."
Gao Zhijun introduces the functions of beauty cream and facial mask.
"Is it really so magical?"
The queen asked Gao Zhijun in disbelief. She was skeptical about what Gao Zhijun said and didn't believe that there were such magical cosmetics in the world.
"I dare not lie and deceive your majesty! Why don't you try it and you will know whether it is true or not!"
Gao Zhijun said.
"How dare you! How can you let the Queen test poison?"
The queen's personal nanny angrily scolded Gao Zhijun.
The Queen is of noble status, and the princess is so brave that she actually dares to let the Queen test the poison. If anything happens, it will be a serious crime that will result in the execution of all nine generations of the family.
"No defense!"
"Let me try for you, Queen Mother!"
The Queen and the Crown Princess said at the same time.
The Queen saw that Princess Xiangyun looked calm and confident, and the Emperor did not say anything, obviously believing what the princess said, so she also believed what Princess Xiangyun said.
The Crown Princess has been with the Crown Prince these days, and what she heard most was his praise of Princess Xiangyun, so she believed in Princess Xiangyun's character.
Such a smart and talented woman would not be stupid enough to poison the queen in front of the emperor. This is a serious crime punishable by the death of nine generations of the family.
"Your Majesty, is it not possible?"
The queen's personal nanny immediately dissuaded her from doing so.
"Come here, my son!"
Gao Zhijun couldn't understand why it was just a bottle of beauty cream. Why did she have to act like she was going to harm the Queen? If she had known this, she wouldn't have given her the beauty cream.
Sure enough, the more money a person has and the higher his status, the more he fears death.
After Gao Zhijun finished speaking, she took the beauty cream from the Queen's hand and applied it on her face in front of everyone.
Soon, Gao Zhijun's face changed. Her skin became white, tender, smooth, delicate and shiny, like a freshly peeled egg.
The Queen and the Crown Princess looked at the white and smooth face with an expression of disbelief and smiles on their faces.
"Amazing, really amazing. I have to try it!"
After the queen finished speaking, she took the beauty cream from Gao Zhijun and applied it on her face herself.
The queen's personal nanny's face changed slightly, and she felt nervous and frightened, as if she had offended the princess.
After applying it, the queen felt that her skin became soft, smooth and much better than before.
"Madam Tian, you have wronged the princess. Apologize to her!"
The queen angrily scolded Nanny Tian.
She knew that the nanny who had watched her grow up was cautiously accusing the princess for her own good.
He was happy about her loyalty, but sometimes he had to be careful, after all, the emperor was here.
"I deserve death. I have wronged the princess. Please forgive me, Princess Xiangyun!"
Nanny Tian quickly knelt down to apologize to Gao Zhijun.
"No defense! Ignorance is not a crime! Nanny Tian is loyal to her mother, and it is natural for her to be cautious. How can I blame her?"
Gao Zhijun said politely and respectfully.
She finally understood what it meant to be like living with a tiger when serving the emperor, and why the people were so afraid of the royal family and the nobles.
A word, an event, or an object may bring about a fatal disaster or the extermination of nine generations of one's family.
"Thank you, Princess!"
Aunt Tian thanked her happily.
Gao Zhijun chatted with the emperor and others for a while, and then followed the emperor and the empress to pay their respects to the queen dowager.
When paying her respects to the Concubine Dowager, Gao Zhijun did not send any more gifts. She just stood aside respectfully and listened to the Concubine Dowager's instructions.
Gao Zhijun had originally prepared beauty cream, beauty pills, life-extending pills, and detoxification pills for the Empress Dowager and the Concubine Dowager. But after what happened to the Queen, she changed her mind and decided not to give anything.
After paying his respects to the Concubine Dowager, he went to the Empress Dowager's bedroom to pay his respects to her.
Gao Zhijun did not give any gifts to the empress dowager. She listened to the instructions respectfully before leaving the palace.
The Dowager Concubine and the Queen Mother were both surprised that Princess Xiangyun did not give them any gifts. It was not until the palace maid beside her reported what happened in the Queen's palace to the Dowager Concubine and the Queen Mother that they both thought the Queen was confused.
