"Miss Jiang, we're here."
The carriage stopped outside Donghua Gate, and from then on we had to walk.
Jiang Li didn't think there was anything wrong with it. She just took the opportunity to visit the palace. Although she had been to the Forbidden City many times before, her mood was obviously different this time.
Now he is a character in the play.
Seeing that there was no displeasure on the woman's face, Nanny Gui praised her in her heart again.
Mo Qi was not allowed to enter the harem, so he waited directly in the carriage. When they were almost at Yongning Palace, a maid came and called the nanny away, and Jiang Li was arranged to follow another maid into the palace.
"Please wait here for a moment, young lady. I will go in and make the announcement."
Jiang Li nodded, breathed a sigh of relief, and found a chair to sit down.
"My lady, this palace is so huge." Bai Zhi couldn't help but sigh, "I never thought that I would enter the palace one day in this life."
She was so nervous that her legs were shaking when she walked, unlike my young lady who looked so calm.
Jiang Li took out a tranquilizing pill she had made last night from the space. She had been planning to buy it at Youshantang today, but since she had to meet the Queen Mother later, she was worried that the little girl might not be able to bear it, so she quickly let her take one first.
It was thanks to her foresight, otherwise when they found that the maid had not returned for a long time and the door of the room was locked, Bai Zhi would have fainted from fright.
"Miss, what should we do?! Queen Mother, the Queen Mother doesn't want us to die..."
Mo Qi told her that the nobles in the palace had strange tempers, and if they accidentally offended someone, they would be dead.
Jiang Li looked around the room and said, "Don't worry, the Queen Mother wouldn't use such a petty trick if she wanted to kill us."
There was no strange incense in the room, nor was it completely sealed. It was obvious that someone didn't want her to meet the Queen Mother smoothly.
"Princess, are we really going to do this?"
The person who spoke was the maid who brought Jiang Li into the room. She was still a little worried, "The Queen Mother will be angry if she finds out."
Gu Yuyan snorted coldly, "Just to make the Empress Dowager angry, humph!"
"Listen carefully! Wait an hour, then secretly go and open the lock. The Empress Dowager will definitely be angry with her for waiting so long for nothing. Then I will fan the flames. Anyway, as long as the Empress Dowager doesn't like her, she can never dream of marrying the Emperor's uncle!"
The emperor's uncle can only be good to her, and no one can take the emperor's uncle away!
There was viciousness in Gu Yuyan's eyes. The little maid was frightened by the Ninth Princess's appearance and did not dare to say a word.
"Miss, are you sure?" Bai Zhi stared outside through the crack in the door, and there was no one passing by.
Jiang Li took down all the cloth items in the room and piled them on the floor.
"This length is about right." After tying various kinds of fabrics together into a knot, Jiang Li moved the chairs to the table by the back window and stacked them up.
It's just climbing through the window. When she was in special training before, she went to collect herbs with her master and fell into a ten-meter pit. This distance is nothing.
She kicked down the top small wooden window, leaving just enough space for one person to pass through.
"I'll go down first, you watch carefully."
Jiang Li grabbed the rope tied to a pillar nearby, twisted his body around and slipped out, then turned around and stepped on the outer wall, using the rope in his hand to quickly descend to the garden behind.
Although Bai Zhi was afraid, she was more afraid of being beheaded by the Queen Mother. She closed her eyes and made up her mind, and slid down like her own lady.
"I said it's okay, let's go."
Jiang Li patted Bai Zhi's pale face and hugged her again, "Don't worry, I'm here."
Without caring about being moved, as quite a bit of time had already been wasted, Jiang Li pulled Bai Zhi and walked towards Yongning Palace.
As soon as they reached the palace gate, Nanny Gui quickly invited people in, saying as she walked in, "Little Ancestor, where have you been? You scared Nanny to death."
Seeing Nanny Gui's reaction, Jiang Li knew that his guess was correct.
"Commoner Jiang Li greets the Queen Mother."
The empress dowager stopped playing with the Buddhist beads in her hand and looked up to see a beautiful young lady walk in. She wore a double-petaled hibiscus pearl jade hairpin on her head, a pair of light pink jade and gold tassel earrings on her earlobes, and flower ornaments on her eyebrows. She had black almond eyes, white teeth and red lips, and her whole body was full of spiritual energy.
After Jiang Li knelt down and saluted for a moment, a voice came: "Lift your head and let me see."
Hearing this, Jiang Li raised her head slightly, curled up the corners of her lips, and her eyes like clear water appeared particularly clear.
"She's quite courageous." The Queen Mother saw that she was calm and composed. Even when she pretended to be stern, the woman didn't show any fear. "Chen'er's vision is indeed good."
"Your Majesty the Queen Mother is so kind."
Jiang Li smiled slightly.
No wonder Gu Qingchen is so beautiful. Jiang Li really didn't expect that this most graceful and elegant woman in the world, even at this age, still seemed to have no signs of aging. You can imagine how beautiful she must have been when she was young.
The Queen Mother did not miss the look of amazement and admiration in Jiang Li's eyes. Such a simple-minded girl is really easy to like.
"Get up, come to me, let me take a good look at you."
Upon hearing the news of the marriage yesterday, the Empress Dowager sent for the Emperor to come to Yongning Palace. After tiresomely asking him questions, she said, "Since you're so curious, just summon him to the palace to meet me!"
After hearing this idea, the empress dowager released the person and then arranged for Nanny Gui to leave the palace early in the morning.
The Queen Mother held Jiang Li's little hand and looked at her little face. It was so pretty and soft. It turned out that her cold little son liked this kind of girl.
The Queen Mother liked him more and more, and she was too lazy to pretend to be aloof and act like a wicked mother-in-law anymore, so she immediately decided to keep him for lunch.
