The crazy daily life of the mistress

Chapter 49: You Don’t Need to Be So Sincere When You Kneel

Lu Yi did not go out today.

She has started learning martial arts moves and has been practicing with Daqing in the past few days.

With her tiny arms and legs, how could she withstand a collision with Da Qing?

After two days of training, my whole body ached.

Therefore, I rested at home because of muscle soreness.

When I saw Nanny Cui, my first reaction was that Mrs. Du had found another Nanny who was even more powerful than Nanny Du.

Meijuan said, "Madam, this is Aunt Cui from the palace. She is here on the orders of the Queen to summon you to the palace for an audience."

Lu Yi was surprised. She didn't know the queen, so why would she summon her into the palace?

Could it be that Mrs. Du couldn't poison her to death, so she came up with another sinister trick?

So he bowed to Madam Cui and said, "Madam Cui, I just happen to be feeling unwell these days. If I enter the palace like this, I'm afraid I might pass my illness on to the Empress. How about I wait until I feel better before entering the palace?"

Meijuan felt that the Crown Prince's wife was really confused. She actually refused such a good thing as the Queen summoned her.

However, she was Mrs. Du's maid, and seeing that Lu Yi was confused, she had no obligation to remind her.

When Nanny Cui heard that she was not feeling well, she was also a little worried. After all, although the empress dowager wanted to summon Lu Yi, if the person brought into the palace was a patient, the emperor would definitely be angry if the disease was really passed on to the empress dowager.

In this case, wouldn't the queen be working in a thankless job?

But the Queen has already said that the Queen Mother will be able to see Lu Yi when she wakes up from her lunch break.

Now that the words have been spoken, it seems that the queen is not doing her job well if she says that Lu Yi is sick and cannot enter the palace.

So, no matter what, the person must be brought into the palace.

Madam Cui said, "Madam, don't worry. There is an imperial physician in the palace. If you feel unwell, you can ask the imperial physician to take a look."

Since Nanny Cui said so, there was nothing else Lu Yi could say.

He could only say, "It's just a minor illness. I dare not trouble the imperial physician."

Madam Cui said, "Madam, please come in."

Since they were going to the palace, Da Qing would definitely follow. After all, in a place like the palace, everyone you met would be the emperor's sons and grandsons, concubines and princesses. Lu Yi's identity was not enough to show off.

The secret guards on the rooftop gestured to Daqing, telling them that they had no way of following him into the forbidden area of ​​the palace, so Lu Yi's safety could only depend on Daqing.

Nanny Cui took Lu Yi out of the Duke's Mansion, got on a sedan chair, and came to the palace.

Looking at the majestic palace gate, her heart was pounding. This was the first time she had entered the palace in her three lifetimes.

Madam Cui said, "Madam, we can't sit in the sedan chair when we get to the palace gate. We need to walk into the palace."

Lu Yi nodded: "Madame Cui, this is my first time in the palace. What should I pay attention to?"

Aunt Cui smiled and said, "The Queen is a kind person, there are not so many rules. The Crown Prince's wife just needs to remember one thing, kneel down and bow to the Queen, don't speak loudly, and add a sentence before answering the Queen's questions: Reply to the Queen's words. The rest of the etiquette is the same as usual."

Lu Yi replied: "Okay, thank you, Aunt Cui."

Lu Yi and Da Qing followed behind Nanny Cui, daring only to look at their own toes.

I didn't dare to look around for even a second.

I arrived at the Cining Palace with trepidation all the way.

The Queen was also very interested in this person who, as the Queen Mother said, had a horoscope that matched hers.

Seeing that Lu Yi seemed to be walking abnormally, I couldn't help feeling disappointed. It turned out that she was disabled.

But since he has caught the Empress Dowager's eye, his disability is not a big problem.

At the prompting of Nanny Cui, Lu Yi knelt down before the Queen and said, "Your Highness, Lu Yi pays respect to Her Majesty the Queen."

The queen smiled and said, "Madam of the Zhenguogong, there is no need to be polite. Get up quickly."

Lu Yi stood up and replied, "Thank you, Queen."

Madam Cui reminded quietly, "Madam, you should thank me first before you stand up."

The queen smiled and said, "Madame Cui, it's all right, all right."

Lu Yi replied: "Thank you, Queen."

The Queen said, "It is the Queen Mother who wants to see you. She has probably woken up from her nap now. Please follow me to Ci'an Palace."

Lu Yi replied: "Yes, Queen."

When we arrived at Ci'an Palace, the Queen Mother had indeed woken up.

When Nanny Ru saw the Queen coming with her people, she guessed that the Queen was followed by Lu Yi.

She hurried over to greet her: "This servant greets the Queen! Is this the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo?"

The Queen smiled and said, "That's right, Lu Yi, this is Madam Ru who is beside the Queen Mother."

Lu Yi bowed deeply and said, "Greetings, Madam Ru."

Nanny Ru warmly held Lu Yi's hand and said with a smile, "I dare not accept Madam's courtesy. The Queen Mother has just gotten up. Madam and this servant are coming over here."

The Queen said, "Madam Ru, the person has been brought here. I will return to the palace first and not disturb the Queen Mother and Madam."

The Queen Mother just came out of her bedroom and said, "Since the Queen is here, let's sit down and have a cup of tea together. Ah Hui, go and call Wanyin over as well. She is about the same age as Lu Yi, so they can have some company."

The Queen Mother was very careful in her work. Since she had placed Wanyin by her side, of course she had to treat her as if she really loved her.

Nanny Hui replied, "Yes, I will go and invite the princess right away."

Nanny Ru led Lu Yi over and bowed, "Madam, this is Lu Yi, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo."

Lu Yi immediately knelt down, kowtowed, and said, "I, your humble servant Lu Yi, pay my respects to the Empress Dowager."

Lu Yi's head hit the marble floor tiles with a loud thump.

Daqing was her maid, so of course she could only kowtow sincerely along with her master.

When they both looked up, there was a little red on their foreheads.

It’s just that Lu Yi’s skin is fair, which makes the red look even more vivid.

The Queen also paid her respects to the Queen Mother, so naturally she didn't take Lu Yi into consideration. As long as Lu Yi wasn't too rude, it was fine.

Now it seems that I was not rude after all.

The Queen Mother looked at Lu Yi's forehead and said quickly, "Silly child, get up quickly, get up quickly, you don't have to kowtow so sincerely, your head must hurt, right?"

Madam Ru looked at Da Qing and said, "As expected, there is a master and a servant. This little maidservant is just like her master. Her forehead is red from knocking her head!"

The Queen Mother laughed heartily.

When the Queen Mother smiled, everyone laughed along.

There were only Lu Yi and Da Qing, and I didn't know what they were laughing at.

Nanny Hui brought Wanyin over and said, "Your Majesty is laughing so happily, is there something happy? Ah Ru, tell me quickly, so that I can also share in the Queen Mother's joy."

Wanyin bowed and saluted: "Greetings to the Imperial Grandmother, and to the Queen."

Ru Ma said to Lu Yi, "Madam, this is the Tenth Princess, the Tenth Princess, and this is the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, Lu Yi."

Lu Yi remembered what Nanny Cui said, that she only needed to perform great courtesy to the Emperor, the Empress Dowager and the Queen, and that everyone else should follow normal etiquette.

Then he bowed to Wanyin and said, "Greetings to the Tenth Princess."
