I married the crippled queen and became the most favored queen in the capital

This……

Nian Xi never expected that Nanny Liu would actually give her a warning in front of Queen Jiang and the concubines. She would find a suitable opportunity to take revenge.

Queen Jiang seemed to be particularly indulgent towards Nanny Liu. She immediately waved her hand gently.

"It's okay. Princess Yan has just arrived and she is a little nervous seeing so many people. She has forgotten the palace rules and etiquette for a moment. This is inevitable."

Nian Xi tightened her throat, then came to Queen Jiang, took the teacup from the maid, and presented it respectfully.

"Your Majesty, please have some tea."

Queen Jiang looked at the teacup in her hand, but did not take it. Instead, she looked at her tenderly.

"Princess Yan, since you have married Yan'er, why don't you call me by a different name? Are you unwilling or unwilling?"

Seeing this, Aunt Liu once again shouted a warning.

"Princess Yan, didn't I tell you that when serving tea, you should address the Queen as Mother and kneel down to serve tea? How come you forgot so quickly?"

Nian Xi took a deep breath, looked back at the proud Madam Liu, and then knelt on the ground.

"Mother, I am not unwilling nor do I want to, but Madam Liu did not mention anything about the etiquette of entering the palace to me. I did not understand it, so I offended you. I hope you will not blame me."

Nanny Liu never imagined that the princess who was about to be buried with the queen would dare to accuse her in front of the queen. She wanted to see who the queen would believe.

She immediately knelt down with a pale face, complaining bitterly.

"My Lady, the princess has wronged me. I have clearly told her the etiquette of serving tea in the palace, but now she is saying this in front of you and all the other ladies. I am speechless!"

When she said this, her eyes turned red with grievance. Nian Xi couldn't help but sigh in her heart that if she lived in modern society, she would definitely be a good actor.

Queen Jiang looked at her most trusted nanny, and immediately looked at Nian Xi with a sullen face.

"Madame Liu has been with me for many years, and she has never shirked what she should do. You have just been in Prince Yan's mansion for a day. If you want to take the lead in stirring up trouble, I will not tolerate you. Now I want to know, did she not tell you? Or are you wrongly accusing her?"

It seems that Queen Jiang still trusts her loyal servant. Nian Xi's eyes turned slightly, and then she raised her eyebrows and nodded as if she suddenly understood something.

"Yes, I remember. Before she left, Madam Liu did say that she would teach me some palace etiquette on the way. But after entering the palace, she was probably afraid of missing the time, so she walked very fast and left me far behind. Did she tell me during this period, and I didn't hear it?"

As soon as she said this, the two concubines sitting below began to ridicule her.

"Mammy is walking in front of the princess? This... this is obviously not taking the master seriously!"

"Yes! This is against palace rules. How can a servant walk in front of his master?"

"... "

At this time, Concubine Rong, who had always disliked Queen Jiang, flashed her seductive eyes and was the first to question,

"Empress, you sent Madam Liu to Prince Yan's mansion. How could she be so ignorant of palace rules? She doesn't take Princess Yan seriously, which shows that she doesn't take royal etiquette seriously at all. You can't just sit back and watch this happen!"

Concubine Xian glanced at him lightly and said mockingly:

"The emperor usually pays the most attention to palace rules and etiquette. Our Pingyang Kingdom has always been known as a country of etiquette. This is the first time that Princess Yan enters the palace, and Madam Liu dares to walk in front of her? This obviously does not want to take the majesty of the royal family seriously. Who gave her the courage to dare to violate the rules? If the emperor knew about this...tsk tsk tsk!"

Seeing that both imperial concubines were quite concerned about this matter, Nanny Liu, who was already in the wrong, suddenly became a little flustered. She never expected that this damn girl Luo Nianxi would accidentally report her.

She immediately looked at Queen Jiang in horror.

"My lady, I...I was so anxious that I forgot my manners. Please punish me, my lady."

The fact that she said this proved that she admitted it.

Queen Jiang's face darkened. If these imperial concubines could find evidence of this incident and take the opportunity to complain to the emperor, and the emperor blamed her, she really didn't know how to respond.

Thinking of this, she looked at Aunt Liu reluctantly.

"I am also at fault in this matter. I failed to discipline you well and caused Princess Yan to suffer injustice. You will receive twenty lashes of the cane later!"

Twenty big boards?

She is already this old, it would be strange if she didn't die after being beaten with twenty sticks.

She was so frightened that her face turned pale and she kept kowtowed to admit her mistake.

"Please forgive me, my lady. I know I was wrong. I know I was wrong."

"You know you're wrong?"

Nian Xi muttered to herself in her heart,

'Weren't you very glorious just now at Prince Yan's Mansion?

Aren’t you very proud of yourself for having just posed in front of the Queen and several concubines?

Since you want to show off your power to me, Princess Yan, I will give you two more gifts in return!'

Thinking of this, she quickly held her mouth shut and shook her head vigorously like a young wife who had suffered a lot of grievances.

"Your Majesty, your words are too serious. Please don't punish Aunt Liu for this. I didn't know that there is such a distinction in etiquette in the palace regarding who leaves first and who leaves later. If I knew, I would never mention this matter in front of everyone. No matter what, Aunt Liu is now the head of Prince Yan's Mansion. I'm new here, and there are many things I should learn from her. In the future, I will have to rely on Aunt Liu to take care of me in Prince Yan's Mansion. I can't let others mistakenly think that I am deliberately causing trouble for Aunt Liu because of this. If so... How can I stay in Prince Yan's Mansion like this!"

As soon as she said this, Madam Liu's face turned even paler, and Empress Jiang frowned. Just as she was about to speak, Imperial Concubine Rong asked in an incredulous tone,

"The Princess of Yan has married into the Prince of Yan's mansion, but she still wants Madam Liu to be the head of the household? The royal family is not without people, so how can you let a servant be the head of the household? Your Majesty, you are really reaching out!"

The virtuous concubine also followed suit and clicked her tongue.

"Prince Yan was injured before, and the Queen was afraid that Prince Yan would be wronged, so she asked Madam Liu to take charge of all matters in Prince Yan's mansion. Now that Princess Yan has entered the mansion, according to the rules, she should give up the position of head."

Seeing that the two concubines had objections to this, Queen Jiang frowned slightly and replied without caring:

"Princess Yan has just arrived and doesn't know much about the affairs of Prince Yan's Mansion. It's not appropriate to hand over such a large palace to her all of a sudden. I know how to handle this matter, so you two concubines don't need to worry about it."

It can be heard from Queen Jiang's words that she trusts Liu Ma more than her own daughter-in-law. It seems that she will not be able to be the head of this family for a while.

In that case, why not find a way out for yourself in advance?

Thinking of this, she bowed directly.

"Your Majesty is right. I just married into Prince Yan's Mansion. My first priority is to take good care of Prince Yan. I don't have the energy to take care of the chores in the mansion. Let Madam Liu continue to be the housekeeper!"

She emphasized the word "housekeeper"; she wanted to let Aunt Liu know that at all times, she was just a housekeeper.

The queen looked at Luo Nianxi, sighed secretly and nodded.

"I am very happy that Princess Yan is willing to take care of Yan'er. Someone, bring me my white jade bracelet..."

Concubine Rong curled her lips and snorted in disdain.

"The Queen should really give Princess Yan more rewards. Princess Yan is willing to marry Prince Yan even though he is in that state. I guess she must have some motive!"

Having said this, she raised the handkerchief in her hand and wiped the corners of her mouth, then a slight mocking sound came out of her mouth.

Concubine Xian did not forget to finish off the enemy.

"That's right. Luo Yuanjian was promoted three levels because of this. This is a good thing that many officials can't even dream of! The emperor really spent a lot of money this time!"
