"I hope someone can refute me in person, but unfortunately those people don't say a word when the time comes."
"If they start to refute me because what they say is right, I will be very happy."
"After all, I am a reasonable person who likes to speak with facts."
"What if I tell everyone about your embarrassing childhood experiences?" Si Muqiao continued to ask.
"How could you possibly know my embarrassing story?"
"...Okay, I understand." Si Muqiao nodded, too lazy to argue with him anymore.
"Come, your majesty, have some herbal tea."
"Ms. Si, this is yours." Aunt Lan Fang handed tea to each of them at the right time.
"Um."
"Thank you very much."
"Grandmother, have you been doing well these days? Have you been using the 100-year-old ginseng slices I sent you?"
"I'm fine. You're thoughtful." The Empress Dowager replied with a smile.
"How's the mood?"
"You may not know yet, but Lady Siming has recently been learning a skill called breaking rocks with her chest. She said she would perform it for me in two or three days."
"Why don't you come over and take a look at it?"
"!!!" Si Muqiao on the side immediately wanted to crush Murong Qingli's head.
Damn, can you please be a good person?
She also couldn't understand why such a thing should be told to the Empress Dowager?
She...she is under a lot of pressure!
In the end, the Empress Dowager nodded and agreed to go and watch the fun.
And, he stared at Si Muqiao with a kind and surprised look.
"Miss Si, I never thought that you not only know Mongolian, but also have such skills. This really makes me look at you with new eyes."
"Grand Empress Dowager, you are too kind. I am just... just playing around. I can't show it to the public, haha."
What can she do? She is also very desperate.
Apart from smiling awkwardly and trying to save your own face, what else can you do?
Haha, she made the dog tyrant remember this grudge.
Just wait, one day, she will make the dog tyrant taste the same thing!
"Ding, the Empress Dowager's favorability +3."
"Ding, the Empress Dowager's favorability +5."
At the right moment, the broadcast voice of System 233 came into my mind.
This instantly made Si Muqiao's depressed mood show signs of improvement.
"By the way, Lady Si, I asked you to come here this time because I wanted to personally thank you for saving my third son's life."
"Grand Empress Dowager, you are too polite. The Third Prince is smart and cute. Not to mention me, if there was someone else sitting next to him at that time, they would definitely help him."
"Besides, your majesty has already rewarded me after this incident." Si Muqiao stood up quickly.
"This bracelet was my favorite when I was young. Now I give it to you."
"Come here, Lady Sima, I'll help you bring it."
The Empress Dowager picked up an exquisite wooden carved box from the cabinet beside her, opened it, took out a juicy emerald green bracelet from it, and waved at her.
The bracelet has a very beautiful water color and is obviously worth a lot of money.
Simu Qiao quickly shook her head: "No, no, Empress Dowager, this is too precious!"
"Lady Si, since the Empress Dowager has said that she wants to give it to you, just take it." Murong Qingli said.
"But... then I would like to thank the Empress Dowager for her reward."
Si Muqiao simply walked over and extended his arm openly.
It's already this time, why are you still being so pretentious?
At worst, she could wait until she gets something good and then give it back to the Empress Dowager.
"A beautiful jade goes well with a beautiful woman. Your Majesty, do you think Lady Si looks particularly beautiful wearing this bracelet?"
"Well, it's okay." Murong Qingli took a glance and nodded lightly.
To be honest, Lady Si has very fair skin and slender wrists, and with those white fingers as green as jade, the jade bracelet looks much more noble.
Not to mention that the jade bracelet made her look even more beautiful.
But Murong Qingli felt that it was too thin!
Miss Sim is too thin!
It’s all that damn Jiang’s family’s fault.
He actually extended his hands into the Imperial Household Department and the Imperial Kitchen, causing Concubine Si to have neither food to use nor good food to eat.
He was starved to such a thin state.
He felt that he could break such a thin wrist with just a little force.
Forget it, I'll ask the imperial kitchen to send some more delicious food to Lady Si to nourish her.
"I think it's really beautiful."
"Thank you for the compliment, Empress Dowager." Si Muqiao also had a smile on his face.
You know what, this bracelet is really pretty.
like!
"Grand Empress Dowager, is the third prince not here today? Why can't I see him?" asked Si Muqiao.
"He should be reading right now."
"If you have nothing to do, Miss Si, you can come to my Shoukang Palace more often."
"Okay!" Si Muqiao nodded.
"Your Majesty, do you mind?"
"Why would I care about these things! The Royal Grandmother likes Lady Simian, it is Lady Simian's blessing."
“…”
In the following time, the three of them sat there and chatted for a while.
After about a cup of tea, Si Muqiao and Murong Qingli walked out of Shoukang Palace together.
Inside Shoukang Palace, Lan Fang asked as she massaged the Empress Dowager's legs.
"Grand Empress Dowager, what do you think of Lady Sima?"
"She is a good one. She has bright eyes, a pure mind, and a lovely intelligence."
"The most important thing is that His Majesty treats her differently from others."
"And, to be honest, I really like chatting with her in Mongolian."
"What about Princess Kangjia?" Lan Fang hesitated to speak.
"Kang Jia, this girl, thought she could hide her thoughts from others, but she didn't know that, let alone I'm with you, even Lady Si can see it clearly."
"She's just a child, she doesn't have any bad intentions, just follow her for now."
"The Empress Dowager is wise." Lan Fang smiled gently.
"I am old after all. It's just that I have met too many people in my life."
"The Empress Dowager is not old. Don't forget that you promised His Majesty that you would help him take care of the Third Prince until he grows up."
…
"Where are you going, Lady Si? Didn't I tell you to have a good rest?" Murong Qingli asked in a cold voice on the way.
"Your Majesty, I have called someone to repair the cold palace. There is some noise over there."
"So I thought of taking the opportunity to go to the Imperial Garden to relax, but unexpectedly I met Aunt Lan on the way and was invited to go over."
"In that case, you might as well move back to Tangli Palace!" Murong Qingli said.
"No need, Your Majesty, I still prefer the cold palace." Si Muqiao shook her head and refused without thinking.
joke!
The cold palace is much bigger than the Tangli Palace where she lived before, okay?
At least it is equivalent to three Tangli Palaces.
Not to mention, she also cultivated the land, repaired the house, and built a chicken coop and duck shed.
If we move back now, won’t all our previous efforts be wasted?
What's more, the geographical location of the cold palace is really great!
It is far enough away from the dog tyrant and quiet, suitable for salted fish.
Wanting her to move is impossible!
"Hehe, Miss Si's preferences are really unique." Murong Qingli sneered, but did not continue to dwell on it.
"Just so-so. Your Majesty, why are you here?" Si Muqiao asked casually.
"Of course I'm here to pay my respects to the Imperial Grandmother!"
"If it wasn't for Aunt Lan calling you over, I would have almost thought that you deliberately went to the Empress Dowager in order to see me."
"Miss Si, I warn you, don't have any inappropriate thoughts about me!"
"You don't deserve it!"
“???” Si Muqiao.
Is it really okay for you to be so narcissistic?
"..."Guo Fu who was following behind Murong Qingli.
Your Majesty is really good at turning the tables!
He was clearly heading for Concubine Si's cold palace.
As a result, he heard that Simian was not there. He asked someone specifically and found out that Simian had been called away by Aunt Lan, so he rushed over.
My goodness, as soon as I opened my mouth, it became Miss Sima's problem.
I am convinced. I am convinced!
