The Queen Mother waited for a long time, "What does the Emperor say?"
"His Majesty said that if you...if you are sick, you should go see the imperial physician. He can't do anything for you, so you shouldn't waste your time worrying about it." The nanny spoke hesitantly.
The Queen Mother put down her teacup heavily and clutched her chest: "Why did I give birth to such a bastard?"
Only the Queen Mother can say this in the whole world, because she is your Majesty's biological mother.
"Now that I'm sick, I wanted him to come and see me, but he refused."
"Your Majesty, His Majesty must know that you are not ill, and that you want to introduce Miss Xu to him," the nanny consoled the Queen Mother. "That is why he refused to come to see you. Please do not get angry."
"That's all." The Queen Mother stood up. "If he won't come to see me, I'll go see him myself. He can avoid me for a while, but he can avoid me every day."
The Queen Mother was confident that Xu Lingyi's beauty was enough to make a man infatuated, as long as the man was not blind.
She must let Xu Lingyi meet the emperor.
"Call Miss Xu, let's go out for a walk." The Queen Mother touched her long nails.
"This is your first time in the palace. What do you think of the scenery of the Imperial Garden?" The Queen Mother embraced Xu Lingyi and treated her very kindly.
"I think the Imperial Garden is very beautiful."
In fact, she still didn't know why the Queen Mother was so close to her.
Until the empress dowager frequently mentioned the emperor in front of her.
"The emperor has loved garden design since he was young. Every blade of grass and every tree in this imperial garden was designed by him. I don't know who this son of mine resembles. He has been proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting since he was young. He was weak when he was young. I and the late emperor only hope that he can grow up safely."
The Queen Mother held Xu Lingyi's hand and walked step by step towards the Emperor's Palace.
"I didn't expect him to be a child prodigy. He learns everything quickly."
When the empress dowager talked about the emperor's childhood, a smile unconsciously appeared on her face.
"He wasn't groomed as a crown prince, but when I and the late Emperor entrusted him with important responsibilities, he was able to take over everything in a very short time. Everyone in the court, both civil and military, praised the Emperor, but I knew my son wasn't interested in government affairs."
The empress dowager was well aware of the emperor's thoughts, but she only had this one son, and she only wanted her son and grandson to succeed to the throne, and she definitely didn't want to let others take advantage of it.
"But even so, since the emperor ascended the throne, he has made countless achievements... He can be considered a rare wise ruler. In the history books of the future, my son's name will surely be recorded forever."
Xu Lingyi listened to the Queen Mother praising the Emperor, and she had a vague feeling that the Queen Mother might want her to like the Emperor...
But why did the Queen Mother fall for her?
Xu Lingyi was well aware of her reputation in the capital.
But realizing that the Queen Mother might have the same goal as her, Xu Lingyi stopped worrying about it for the time being, thinking that she would know the answer sooner or later.
Now we must seize the opportunity and deal with the Queen Mother first.
"I have heard of your majesty's wisdom long ago. When I was outside the palace, all the common people loved your majesty and praised him as a wise ruler rarely seen in history."
"What about you?" The Queen Mother smiled and held Xu Lingyi's hand. She paused, looking at her face to face with kindness and compassion. "What do you think of His Majesty?"
Noticing the Empress Dowager's gaze, Xu Lingyi knew how to answer.
She smiled faintly, "Your Majesty is the Supreme Ruler, renowned for his brilliance and might. I, your humble servant... naturally, admire your Majesty immensely."
She deliberately didn't use the word love.
After saying this, Xu Lingyi lowered her head as if shy, with the tips of her ears slightly red.
The Empress Dowager has been in the palace for many years and has become a shrewd person. Xu Lingyi is not a confused woman.
She likes talking to women like this.
The Queen Mother's smile grew even wider. "Good! Good boy! No wonder I felt so close to you the first time I saw you."
The Queen Mother reached out, picked a pink flower, and casually placed it on Xu Lingyi's head.
Ya had to admit that there was nothing that was not beautiful about Xu Lingyi.
Whether it is her extraordinary face or her charming figure, they are all eye-catching. Even her silky black hair is exceptionally thick and soft.
"This flower praises you," the Queen Mother praised with a smile. "You haven't seen the Emperor yet. I will take you to see him."
"The Emperor is a little older than you, now nearly thirty, but he is the product of the best qualities of me and the late Emperor. He is quite good-looking. Yi'er will know when she sees him."
The Queen Mother felt that her words were too modest. Many concubines in the harem were not chosen by her on her own initiative. A small number of them met the Emperor at a banquet, fell in love with him at first sight, and voluntarily entered the palace.
Xu Lingyi had actually met the emperor, but the empress dowager was in the mood for conversation, so Xu Lingyi just listened quietly.
"Your Majesty, would you like to take a walk in the Imperial Garden?"
The emperor had just finished dealing with state affairs and reviewing memorials every day, and he really wanted to go out for a walk.
Sometimes I go to the Imperial Garden, and sometimes I go to the Star-Picking Pavilion to look out into the distance.
"Let's go." said the emperor.
In the past, whenever he went out, Liu Jinzhong would clear the area in advance to avoid any disturbance by the concubines in the harem.
But today, the Queen Mother... he really couldn't afford to offend her.
Alas, this mother and son from the royal family really love to make trouble.
Although the emperor didn't say it, he was filial in his heart.
Knowing this, Liu Jinzhong dared not offend the empress dowager.
So soon after the emperor entered the imperial garden, he saw a woman among the flowers in the garden.
The woman was facing away from him at this moment, and her back figure was particularly graceful.
Her slender waist is like a willow swaying in the wind, soft as if it has no bones.
Her slender waist was now tied with a gold-embroidered belt, which tightly wrapped around her thin waist, making her figure even more graceful and exquisite.
