[Through the Book] The ancestor only wants to live a long life

"Is this still possible? That's great!" Rong Enqing was delighted when he heard this idea. "Will Concubine Liang be sick to death if this happens?"

Thinking about how Concubine Liang dared not speak out her anger, and how she reluctantly sent the person to Shoukang Palace, Rong Enqing couldn't help but smile.

But, no matter what Zhou Xue said, can the Queen Mother really do anything?

Did Zhou Xue control the Empress Dowager too much? It was just like controlling the Princess of Anyang County!

She was fearless and no one in the capital wanted to mess with Anyang County Lady, but Zhou Xue had her hands full with her. She was punished to kneel down, and she was told not to bring Ruhua out, so she would never dare to bring Tingqin out!

Zhou Xue's time-travel script, could it be that she is the master of strategy? Princess Anyang! Empress Dowager! Is it Emperor Taihe's turn next?

Rong Enqing shook off the messy thoughts in his head and calmed his mind.

We have arrived at Shoukang Palace.

Nanny Zhou took out the sign bestowed by the Empress Dowager and showed it to the palace maid guarding the gate, and she was allowed in immediately.

Rong Enqing originally thought that Shoukang Palace would be crowded and bustling.

But when I went in, I saw that it was only Princess Anyang who was talking to the Empress Dowager.

Rong Enqing was confused in his heart, but he showed no sign of it on his face. He walked forward respectfully, knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and greeted. His movements were smooth and flowing.

When the empress dowager called her, she realized that Nanny Zhou was actually standing next to her and had not even kneeled.

She glanced at Nanny Zhou out of the corner of her eye, then stood up awkwardly.

"Give me a seat."

The Queen Mother spoke, and the palace maid waiting beside her brought over two round stools.

Just as Rong Enqing was wondering, he saw Nanny Zhou sitting down leisurely.

Well! She forgot that although Zhou Xue was the nanny of the county lady's mansion, she was a capable person. She could defeat the superior and become the host. She was much more capable than this useless lady of the marquis' mansion.

Rong Enqing smiled awkwardly and half-sat on the stool cautiously.

Before she sat down, she heard the Queen Mother above her laughing and teasing, "Why is this child so reserved? Sit tight, or you might fall down. After all, you are the wife of the Marquis' Mansion, why can't you relax at all?"

Hearing the first half of the sentence, Rong Enqing thought that the Queen Mother was talking about someone else, but after hearing the second half, Rong Enqing felt sick.

The Queen Mother called her a child? Not to mention whether she can still be called a child at the age of 48. Just think about the tone of the Queen Mother calling her "child". Isn't it too intimate?

Rong Enqing was puzzled, so Nanny Zhou smiled and explained, "There's nothing we can do. This child is a little stupid and doesn't have a good personality."

Even the Princess of Anyang County beside her smiled and said, "Empress Dowager, the Madam Dowager is showing respect to you. In fact, once you get to know her, you will find that the Madam Dowager is very interesting and not pedantic at all. She is much cuter than other old ladies!"

The empress dowager looked at Princess Anyang lovingly and said to Nanny Zhou, "How can she be so bold?" They were all children raised by Zhou Xue, and their personalities were very different.

Although the Queen Mother only said half of what she said, Nanny Zhou clearly understood. She could only smile helplessly and spread her hands: "I guess it's because of the different growth environments and different education methods."

"That's right." The Queen Mother nodded and did not continue the topic. She turned to Rong Enqing and asked, "Your eyes look red, but were you wronged in Concubine Liang's palace before?"

After these words were spoken, a hint of surprise flashed through Rong Enqing's mind again.

The tone of the Empress Dowager's voice and the meaning behind her words... Could it be that if she answered that she had been wronged, would the Empress Dowager be prepared to help her seek justice?

However, before she could answer, the Queen Mother said indifferently, "Forget it. Don't tell me if you've been wronged. I just want to live a peaceful life until the end of my life. I don't want to get involved in the intrigues in and out of the palace. It's too tiring! And it won't end well! It's not worth it!"

The fantasy that had just arisen in her heart had not even emerged when it was extinguished by the Queen Mother's three consecutive denials. However, the Queen Mother's change of heart was too fast, as if she was teasing her.

But, she was the queen mother, who was high above everyone else. What could she say? Haha, she could only smile. She didn't even dare to ask, "Are you kidding me?"

At this moment, Nanny Zhou suddenly said sternly, "Alright, Empress Dowager, just live your happy life in peace. The Shun'an Marquis's Mansion has nothing to do with you. You don't have to worry about her now! If that day really comes, it won't be too late for you to come forward and save her life."

"Okay, you are a man of great plans, I won't care." The Queen Mother agreed readily, looked at the sky, and asked the maid beside her, "What time is it?"

The maid quickly replied respectfully, "My Queen Mother, it is already late in the morning and it is almost time for the banquet."

Hearing the maid's words, the Queen Mother stood up and called to the others, "Let's go, don't keep the Queen and everyone else waiting for too long."

As soon as they stood up and had not yet walked out of Shoukang Palace, the Queen came over in person to invite the Queen Mother. When they met, the two sides exchanged greetings and then went to attend the banquet together.

The banquet was held in a special palace. When the group arrived, everyone was present, including a few high-ranking concubines in the harem, including Concubine Liang.

Rong Enqing and Princess Anyang, who came in last as the Empress Dowager and the Queen, were subjected to the envious, jealous, scrutinizing and inquiring looks of the crowd.

Afterwards, they sat down, ate, drank tea, and chatted... Rong Enqing followed Princess Anyang the entire time. Even if someone wanted to come up and ridicule Rong Enqing during his free time, they gave up the idea after seeing Princess Anyang beside Rong Enqing.

Of course, there were a few people who came forward to chat, and Rong Enqing greeted them politely.

Nothing happened in the following period of time.

At the end of the Wei hour, the banquet in the palace ended early and everyone went back home.

Rong Enqing followed Princess Anyang and Nanny Zhou out of the palace. When Rong Enqing saw Princess Anyang getting on the carriage of the Princess's Mansion and Nanny Zhou was about to get on, she couldn't help but call out to Nanny Zhou.

"Madame Zhou, can you come to my car and talk for a few words?"

Madam Zhou hesitated for a moment, then nodded. She said something to Princess Anyang, then turned around and followed Rong Enqing to get on the carriage of the Shun'an Marquis' Mansion on the other side.

"What do you want to say?" Nanny Zhou went straight to the point.

"What is your relationship with the Empress Dowager?" Rong Enqing asked directly, "Why does the Empress Dowager look so strange?

"Why does the Queen Mother treat me so strangely?

"Why is it that the relationship between you and the Queen Mother is so close that there is no distinction between superiors and subordinates, and you are as close as sisters?

"...Wait, you two are not really sisters, are you? I was just saying, the Queen Mother looks a little familiar.

"…You, your eyes are similar! Yes! Everything else is fine, but your eyes are just like they were cut from the same mold!

"Zhou Xue, tell me honestly, what is your relationship with the Queen Mother?

"Also, what did you mean by the last words you said to the Queen Mother?"
