After being married off by my younger sister, I became the most beloved person in the palace

Gu Zhiyin went to Chaohui Hall and told the old princess everything about the old lady.

"…Today I discovered that someone was trying to find out about her. From what Uncle Yu said, it wasn't her family members who were looking for her, but someone who wanted to harm her, so I decided to let her live in the palace."

The old princess had no objection to Gu Zhiyin bringing an old lady back home.

but……

"You didn't even know who she was, but you recognized her as your grandmother? Grandma, aren't you afraid of bringing trouble upon yourself?" the old lady said softly.

Gu Zhiyin thought for a moment and said.

"Don't be afraid of grandma laughing at you. I feel very close to you, grandma. Just like... I like you, grandma. I feel like a long-lost relative." Gu Zhiyin pursed her lips and smiled.

"If she is really in trouble, and no one knows she is in Prince Pingyang's Palace now, I will hide her. I will take her away after I find out her identity. I will never let the palace fall into danger." After a pause, Gu Zhiyin continued.

The old princess took her hand and chuckled, "You are treating yourself as an outsider when you say that. The palace is your home, you can do whatever you want. Grandmother is not someone who is afraid of trouble. She is just worried that you will end up giving your true love to the wrong person."

Gu Zhiyin was moved when he heard this.

"Grandma, you are so kind."

The old princess said: "Yunting Courtyard is the closest to your yard, have someone clean it up for her to live in."

"Thank you, Grandma."

Gu Zhiyin sat for a while, then stood up and left.

The old princess thought about it, called Mother Qin, opened the warehouse, picked out a few pieces of cloth and sent them to Qionghua Courtyard.

Mother Qin went away as soon as she was asked.

"In reply to the Princess of the County, the old princess said that since she is your adopted grandmother and she has just arrived, it is not appropriate to neglect her, so she asked me to pick out a few pieces of fine brocade and make a few clothes for the old lady. After two days, when the old lady is familiar with the mansion, the old princess said to set up a table in Chaohui Hall so that everyone can meet and have a meal."

Gu Zhiyin smiled and replied, "Yes, please help, Mother Qin, to thank my grandmother for me."

As he was speaking, the Queen Mother's voice rang out from outside.

"Yinyin, where is my thousand-layer puff pastry? Why hasn't it come yet?"

The next moment, the Queen Mother was seen walking into the warm room.

Mother Qin happened to look back.

The sunlight filtered through the carved window frames, illuminating the flying dust particles and falling on the empress dowager's wrinkled face, adding a bit of majesty to her appearance.

puff-

Mother Qin's legs went weak and she fell to her knees in fear.

"T- ...

Gu Zhiyin was just surprised by Qin's mother's behavior, and when she suddenly heard her address, she took a deep breath.

She looked at the Queen Mother in disbelief, then at Mother Qin, and pinched her own thigh.

Gudong!

Gu Zhiyin swallowed hard, realized that he was not hallucinating, and knelt down quickly.

Her heart was beating wildly, as if it was about to jump out of her throat at the next moment, and her beautiful eyes were full of shock and astonishment.

She brought back a queen mother?

She also recognized the Queen Mother as her grandmother?

Even though she had lived two lifetimes, she could never have imagined that this kind-hearted and amiable old lady would actually be the empress dowager of the current dynasty.

It is rumored that the Queen Mother Qin was sinister and ruthless, cruel, cold and mean. As the most powerful woman in Dayan, she controlled half of the court, killed people decisively, and was feared by everyone.

She is completely different from the old lady in front of me.

In her previous life, when she married into the Shen family, she had no chance to enter the palace to meet the empress dowager. By the time Shen Linzhou became a general and was granted a title of nobility, and she had the imperial edict and was qualified to enter the palace, the empress dowager had already passed away for many years.

The empress dowager's vest fell off as soon as she said it, and her other foot, which had just stepped into the house, stopped suddenly. She first glanced at Mother Qin, and then her eyes fell on Gu Zhiyin who knelt down immediately after her, and she strode over.

"Hurry up and get up. Aren't you afraid that your knees will be broken? Does it hurt?"

A gentle voice and deep affection in the eyes.

Gu Zhiyin was pulled up in a daze, a little dazed for a moment.

"Queen Mother..."

"wrong."

Gu Zhiyin: “Ah?”

"You called me the wrong name." The Queen Mother gave you a look that seemed to be threatening that she would spank you if you called me the wrong name again.

Gu Zhiyin choked and called out tentatively: "Grandmother?"

"Eh!" The Queen Mother was satisfied, and her response was full of joy.

Then she turned around, looked at Mother Qin and said, "Qin Caiyin?"

Mother Qin prostrated herself on the ground, and said in a fearful tone, "To answer the Queen Mother, it was me. I am so scared that the Queen Mother still remembers me."

Mother Qin was about to cry.

She would never have imagined that the strange old lady the Princess brought back would turn out to be the Empress Dowager of the time.

The Queen Mother snorted jealously and looked at her arrogantly: "Humph, your name was given by me back then, and you are loyal and still follow He Shunhua."

So angry!

Her servants betrayed her without hesitation, but the people around He Shunhua were loyal to her.

What kind of fatal question is this?

Mother Qin just felt her scalp tingling and her heart was panicking.

"Yes, thank you Queen Mother for giving me this name. I am very grateful. The old princess... treats me with great affection."

The implication is that the old princess treated her so well, how could she possibly betray her master?

She was sold by her parents when she was very young, and she didn't remember how many mansions she had been moved into. In the year she came of age, she was lucky enough to enter the Qin family and was assigned to the courtyard of the empress dowager, who was then the eldest daughter of the Qin family. Because they had the same surname, Qin, the empress dowager said at the time that this was her fate with the Qin family. However, the name Qin Daya was too ugly, so she was renamed Caiyin. When she first entered the Qin family, she was just an ordinary maid.

The Empress Dowager when she was young was a girl as hot and fiery as the sun. She was graceful, proud, flamboyant and eye-catching.

She and the old princess are close friends and have a deep relationship.

Once, the old princess went to the Qin family to play. In order to get a kite, she climbed up the rockery in the Qin family garden, but she missed a step and fell down.

She happened to pass by at that time and reflexively pounced on him, serving as a human cushion for the young old princess.

All the bones in my chest were broken and I had to stay in bed for three months.

Because the old princess had saved her, she begged the empress dowager to give her back to the He family.

The Queen Mother was so annoyed that she finally agreed.

The old princess was a few years younger than the Queen Mother. When she was young, she was a spoiled and annoying person. The Queen Mother always looked down on her in appearance, but in fact she was extremely indulgent towards her.

She followed the old princess to the He family and became her personal maid.

She followed the old princess and married into the Pingyang Palace, and also experienced the breakup between the two.

It's just like this that we never see each other again until we die.

Mother Qin was deeply immersed in the past. When she came to her senses, she had returned to Chaohui Hall and was standing at the door of the house.

The old princess walked towards her from the house and looked at her suspiciously. The regret in Mother Qin's eyes had not yet dissipated, and the old princess frowned slightly.

"What's wrong with you? I called you several times but you didn't respond. What are you thinking?"
