The palace maid shouted loudly:
"The Queen has arrived!"
The princess looked at Xu Zhiyi proudly. Her mother doted on her the most and would definitely make the decision for her today.
Xiao Cui's hand was about to slap Xu Zhiyi in the face.
Xu Zhiyi held her hand tightly, and it was like holding an iron clamp, which hurt her.
When Xu Zhiyi heard that the queen was coming, he let go of her hand.
Xiao Cui looked at her wrist in shock. There were several finger marks on it, all of which were blue and purple!
Could it be that the general just likes women with enough strength like this? Not only can the princess not compare to him in appearance, but she can't even compare to him in strength...
She was worried about Princess Changle.
Then everyone in the hall straightened their appearance and saluted the Queen.
Lady Xian of Duke Xianguo's Mansion and Lu Yanli followed the Queen in.
Lu Yanli first glanced at Xu Zhiyi and Nian Nian, and only felt relieved when he saw that they were fine.
The queen wore a gold-thread peony dress and had a few jade hairpins simply adorning her head. Her complexion was okay, but her body looked a little thin.
She knew the princess's feelings for Lu Yanli. She had just come to her and cried about it yesterday, but she never expected her to be so bold as to take away someone else's family.
When the princess saw Lu Yanli following behind her, she felt a little shy at first, but then she felt a little embarrassed when she thought of Xu Zhiyi.
Today she just wanted to see what the woman looked like and didn't plan to do anything else, so how come she happened to see someone about to hit her?
Fearing that Lu Yanli might misunderstand, he hurriedly explained to his mother:
"She spoke rudely to me just now, so I had someone teach her a lesson."
She spoke to her mother, but actually she secretly glanced at Lu Yanli.
Noticing that he didn't look well, I felt a little regretful.
In his eyes, am I too arrogant and domineering to be a wife?
Niannian was frightened just now, and now seeing this scene again, she quickly hid in Xu Zhiyi's arms.
Seeing Lu Yanli behind him, he shouted:
"Daddy."
When I saw someone familiar, I couldn't help but shout out.
The soft voice made the queen notice that there was a child.
She looked at the child, a small, soft ball, curled up in Xu Zhiyi's arms, and showed his face when he called "Daddy".
She was suddenly distracted and only saw the child with big almond eyes, a small nose, and slightly upturned lips.
This one looks so similar...
How come she saw Rou'er again after more than ten years...
She reached out her hand in disbelief, trying to get closer to the child.
The princess frowned. Her mother rarely lost her composure like this. Then she thought of what she had heard from her nanny: the queen had a little princess before, and after something happened, she had the opportunity to be raised by the queen...
She finally remembered what that familiar feeling was about.
No, she had to stop it, otherwise she would never be favored again in the future.
Her voice pierced the silence of the hall, and if you listened carefully, you could hear a hint of unease:
"Mother, I was wrong. I will have them sent back now."
Unfortunately, it was too late. The queen acted as if she didn't hear anything and continued to walk towards the child, even reaching out to hug her.
Xu Zhiyi subconsciously dodged for a moment and said:
"Niannian is still young, I'm afraid he might offend the Empress."
The queen woke up as if from a dream, and after a pause, she said:
"Your name is Nian Nian?"
The little girl nodded and looked as smart as her Rouer.
Children are the most sensitive and can tell who has malicious intentions towards them and who has good intentions towards them.
The other party had no ill intentions, so she was quietly held in her mother's arms.
He even smiled, revealing a few rice-like teeth.
Her lip shape and eyes were exactly the same as Rou'er's. Even the habitual blinking of her eyes when she nodded was exactly the same.
The little movements when smiling are exactly the same.
All this made her eyes well up with tears.
He reached out and pinched Rong Mama's body. When he felt the real touch, he realized that he was not dreaming.
Princess Changle behind him was extremely anxious and said to Lu Yanli:
"Aren't you going to take her away?"
Lu Yanli gave her a cold look in return, and she was so scared that she didn't dare to say a word.
Niannian looked at the woman in front of her and saw her shedding tears, so she stretched out her little hand to wipe them away.
Normally, when she cried, her mother would wipe away her tears in this way.
The queen stood there in a daze. Was it Rouer who came back to find her?
Rong Mama took her handkerchief and wiped the Queen's tears, saying:
"They do look alike. Why not bring the young lady into the palace so she can keep the Empress company and entertain her."
After hearing this, Xu Zhiyi stuffed Nian Nian into his arms again.
Niannian also stretched out his little arms and hugged his mother's neck.
After hearing this, Lu Yanli immediately stepped forward:
"My daughter is young and ignorant, and has never left her mother's side. I'm afraid that if she stays, it will disturb the Queen."
Although no one was allowed to mention it again later, Lady Xian Guogong knew about the incident back then, and she was staring at Nian Nian at this moment.
The fact that he could make the Queen lose her composure like this must be because they look very similar, and it can also be considered a coincidence.
Rong Mama looked unhappy. She thought that the general was really something. He didn't want the princess, and now the queen was reluctant to let his daughter go even though she liked her.
It was only then that the Queen noticed the woman beside her, holding Nian Nian. She hadn't noticed it before, but now she saw that she looked very similar to herself when she was young.
Suddenly an idea flashed through her mind, and her fingers trembled:
"Is she your child?"
Xu Zhiyi nodded:
