"Your son pays respects to your mother/Yi's mother"
"Your humble servant pays respects to Her Majesty Concubine Yi."
"Well, get up and take a seat," a lazy voice sounded.
After sitting down under the guidance of the palace maid, Baoer quietly looked up curiously at Concubine Yi in front of him, and was filled with admiration in his heart.
As expected of Emperor Kangxi's favorite concubine, she looks so stunning even with her children. Perhaps because she's always been favored, she looks like she's in her early twenties. She has delicate features and a pair of peach blossom eyes just like Yinzhen's. She's truly a truly beautiful and noble woman.
In addition, her eyebrows were flying, her eyes were cunning, and her temperament was so elegant and noble. She didn't look like a resentful woman in the deep palace at all.
Now she was smiling at several people, which made her feel a great liking for Concubine Yi, whom she met for the first time, at first sight.
Bao'er muttered to herself, "Yin'er probably inherited Concubine Yi's good looks."
"Mother, I've brought Bao'er to see you." Yinzhen looked at Concubine Yi with a silly smile.
Concubine Yi looked at her own silly son and didn't know what to say. She rolled her eyes and ignored him.
"Okay, you and Old Ten go and do your business first, and come back to pick her up later. I'm going to talk to Miss Lin."
"Mother..."
"Okay, go ahead. Don't worry. You can still eat her knowing that she is your favorite mother." Concubine Yi said with a smile.
Yinzhen and Yinyang glanced at Baoer, whose cheeks had suddenly turned red. Seeing Baoer nod, they could only nod helplessly and leave. After all, their good brother, Big Brother, was going to marry a concubine, so they had to go and see it, and then come back to pick up Baoer when the ceremony started.
Yinzhen knew that his mother would not do anything to Baoer, after all, she was his sweetheart.
"Then Baoer, I'll pick you up when the time comes?"
"Yes, Baoer, you can chat with Yi'er Niang here first and take a rest. Brother Jiu and I will come to pick you up later."
Baoer looked at the two of them and knew that this was to leave time for herself to spend with Concubine Yi, after all, she might become her mother-in-law in the future.
Thinking of Baoer, she nodded with a red face, "You guys go and do what you need, I can stay here by myself" if you ignore the sweat on her palms due to nervousness.
After giving Hao Baoer a few more words of advice, the two brothers walked out reluctantly, looking back every few steps.
After seeing Yinzhen leave, Concubine Yi turned her gaze to Baoer. At first glance, she looked like an ordinary girl, but after looking at her again, she was quite attractive. If there was one good thing about her, it was probably that she was pleasing to the eye. She was a good girl.
Concubine Yi has lived in the palace for many years and has seen all kinds of people. As soon as Baoer entered the room, Concubine Yi knew what kind of person Baoer was at first glance. He was a person with a pure and upright mind and no bad intentions.
Never mind, it was her own son's fault. As long as he wasn't someone with bad intentions, it was fine. Concubine Yi was afraid that he was someone with a lot of thoughts and was deliberately plotting against her son. Now that she saw him, she felt relieved.
Concubine Yi looked at Bao'er with loving eyes and said, "I heard Lao Jiu call you Bao'er, so I will call you Bao'er too."
Baoer smiled shyly and said sweetly, "My Lady, please feel free to do as you please."
Concubine Yi smiled with satisfaction when she saw it, and waved to Bao'er, "Come here, let me take a good look. My old ninth son often talks about you in front of me, Bao'er, and I have been curious for a long time."
Baoer was a little nervous after hearing this, then took a few steps forward obediently and stood two steps away from Concubine Yi.
Concubine Yi saw Bao Er's nervous look and laughed, "You don't have to be nervous. I'm just curious about you."
Then she asked her maid to move a stool to her side and said, "Come, sit down, let's have a good talk."
Seeing Concubine Yi comforting him gently and kindly, Baoer gradually relaxed and sat down beside Concubine Yi obediently.
Seeing this, Concubine Yi took Bao'er's hand and patted the back of Bao'er's hand. "That's right, I don't eat people."
Baoer smiled awkwardly, "My lady, you must be joking."
"What does Baoer usually do at home?" Concubine Yi asked curiously.
"In reply to your Majesty, I usually make some snacks at home, and occasionally try to make some skin care products, just for fun."
Seeing this, Concubine Yi said flatteringly, "Really? I wonder when I can use the skin care products you make."
Bao Er said shyly, "Knowing that I would come to see the Queen today, Bao Er brought a set of cosmetics that I made myself and planned to give them to you."
Concubine Yi was surprised and said, "Really? Then I'll have to give it a try."
After hearing this, Baoer immediately signaled Chengzi to take out the gift he was going to give.
Looking at the beautifully packaged gift box, Concubine Yi felt more and more that Bao'er had put in so much effort.
Concubine Yi signaled the maid to open it, revealing a delicate wooden box divided into eight small compartments. To prevent it from being accidentally bumped, she also padded it with a layer of soft cloth.
Baoer saw it and immediately introduced it to Concubine Yi. First, she introduced her own skin care lotion, which she had tried and found to be effective. She also explained how to use it. Then she introduced foundation and setting powder. She also introduced blush and eyebrow powder, which she thought were good.
He introduced them to Concubine Yi one by one, even explaining their functions and even providing matching makeup brushes. Finally, he emphasized the perfume he had specially prepared for her.
Concubine Yi became happier and happier after hearing this. After all, there is no woman who doesn't love beauty.
Especially when Baoer opened the bottle of perfume, a faint floral scent instantly hit her.
Baoer poured out a drop, rubbed it on Concubine Yi's wrist, and motioned Concubine Yi to smell it.
Concubine Yi was immediately pleasantly surprised. It smelled really good, with a light fragrance, unlike ordinary incense or ointments in the palace. The smell was very natural.
"This is a perfume I have specially prepared for you after asking about your personality and hobbies, Ninth Prince. This perfume is based on the classic floral scent, with notes of balsam tree flowers, jasmine, rose, sandalwood, vetiver, and vanilla. It is perfect for a beautiful and elegant woman like you, Your Majesty."
Concubine Yi was very satisfied with Baoer's praise. "You are thoughtful. At first, when I heard Lao Jiu say that he liked a girl, I thought he was relying on his good looks to deceive the girl." She said this in a tone of disgust.
"Later, I heard that the girl she liked was from a family of a fifth-rank official. I wondered if that girl had done something to make Lao Jiu fall in love with her."
"I have always wanted to see you, but Lao Jiu probably didn't want to embarrass you, so he refused. It was only this time that he brought you to see me."
"To be honest, I feel a little sad. Old Nine really has forgotten his mother now that he has a wife." He said this with a hint of resentment in his eyes.
Baoer smiled awkwardly, looking a little unnatural.
"Your Majesty..."
Concubine Yi smiled and said, "I'm not talking about you, just listen to me first."
"To be honest, although I promised Lao Jiu to plead for him in front of the emperor, if you really make me look down on you, although I love Lao Jiu, there are ways to prevent you from getting what you want." After all, he already had a bad daughter-in-law, and Concubine Yi didn't want her most beloved son to be unhappy, so she just wanted the result to be good.
Bao'er turned pale, thinking that Concubine Yi opposed her and Yin'er's relationship.
I was still wondering if Concubine Yi would be like those domineering writers, where she would give you so many taels and ask you to leave my son...
