Liu Wuyou looked at Madam Liu in surprise. Her mother had always been gentle and kind, and it was rare to see her so angry.
"What's wrong?" She put down the flowers in her hand and asked with concern.
Mrs. Liu looked at her, sighed deeply, picked up the post and handed it to her.
Liu Wuyou took it and looked at it, and she understood.
"Just go. I'm not bedridden, so it's okay." Liu Wuyou closed the note, smiled, and comforted Madam Liu softly.
Madam Liu's expression remained unchanged. She said angrily:
"It's fine if you want to keep an eye on the families of officials like us. I understand the desires of those in high positions, but knowing that you're weak, you insisted on me bringing you along. You're pushing your luck and are beyond reproachful!"
Liu Wuyou reached out and gently patted Madam Liu's hand, and said in a relaxed tone:
"Don't think too much about it. Anyway, I haven't been out much since I came back because of my poor health. After two years of recuperation, my health has improved a bit. Just think of it as you taking me out for a walk and some fresh air."
"But."
"Well, you'll be by my side anyway. If I'm really unwell, you can take care of me. If the Queen wants to see me, then let her. Maybe she just wants to feel at ease."
Madam Liu began to hesitate, so Liu Wuyou continued to persuade her:
"Father is under tremendous pressure out there. If I can put their minds at ease, maybe it can also relieve some of his pressure. It's just something I can do by going out and meeting people, so it's good, isn't it?"
Her daughter is her treasure, and her husband is Mrs. Liu's sweetheart, so she will naturally consider and worry about Liu Zhaoyuan's official career.
Liu Wuyou's words undoubtedly hit the point of hesitation in her heart.
She looked at Liu Wuyou with moving eyes and sighed, "Your father is the head of the family. If he's well, our family will be well too. I'm glad you understand this, but I also promise you that if anyone dares to harm you, I will fight them to the death!"
Liu Wuyou smiled and said hurriedly, "Pfft, pfft, pfft, I can't fight with others for no reason. But speaking of which, I haven't been out for a long time. Should I dress up a little brightly for the flower viewing banquet? I can outshine the other women in the family."
"You've only spoken a few words and you're already losing your composure again." Madam Liu also smiled. She looked Liu Wuyou up and down and said seriously, "Even if my daughter went out in rags, she would look better than them!"
Liu Wuyou laughed out loud. This is really the case that beauty is in the eyes of one's own mother.
-
The Queen held a flower-viewing banquet, and all the prominent families in Guangling City received invitations.
The imperial city is different now. The queen is still the same queen, but the prince has been deposed and is now guarding the imperial tomb to reflect on his mistakes.
The left and right prime ministers are still there, so the queen has not given up yet. She believes that she will be able to help the deposed prince to become the crown prince again.
This is also the reason why she is paying more and more attention to the families of officials.
Every two or three months throughout the year, she would hold a banquet to invite the families of high-ranking officials to attend, under the pretext of maintaining relationships, but in fact, she was constantly reminding everyone that she was still the current queen.
Her two brothers are still the left and right prime ministers of the dynasty, and her son will return to a high position sooner or later.
Before, Liu Wuyou had never attended these activities hosted by the Queen due to her poor health. She was actually quite surprised why the Queen suddenly paid special attention to her.
She is not an unmarried lady, so even if someone wants to use her to form an alliance with a certain family, there is no way.
But since she had invited him, she would go and take a look.
