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

The proud queen mother will never bow her head.

A few years later, she learned the news of Qin Wenxi's death and cried all night alone in Kunning Palace.

As time passed, the Xie family did not return to Beijing, and she also got used to not asking about their affairs.

However, Xie Li was an outstanding and capable man. He rose from a small centurion to the governor of Youzhou. Now he has returned to the capital to report on his work, and his family has also moved back to the capital.

It was the Empress Dowager's idea to transfer Xie Li back to the capital, and it was useless for the Emperor to stop it.

What's more, Xie Li is a man of real ability, so while the emperor has to be on guard against him, he has to use him.

"Thank you, Queen Mother." After expressing their gratitude, the couple sat down aside.

Wei had never met the Queen Mother and was very frightened.

Although she had heard about the past of the Xie family, she had not experienced it and had no right to speak, so she stood aside silently and gracefully.

When he raised his head slightly, he saw Gu Zhiyin sitting next to the empress dowager, and his heart was immediately filled with amazement.

Wei felt that the most beautiful woman in Youzhou that she had ever seen was not even one-tenth as beautiful as her.

The words that come to my mind to describe it are probably: The peony in its heyday is so beautiful that it can captivate a country.

She was wearing a flowing red dress woven with crabapple flowers. Her crescent-shaped eyes were full of vitality, as if containing the stars. Her skin was as white as snow, revealing the tenderness unique to a woman.

Wei couldn't help but stare in amazement, until Gu Zhiyin smiled at her, she looked away awkwardly.

But after a while, he couldn't help but look at her, secretly guessing Gu Zhiyin's identity.

Even though he was far away in Youzhou, he had heard about Queen Mother Qin's methods and ruthlessness. The only person who could be so close to the Queen Mother was either the Seventh Princess born to Concubine Xian or a young lady from the Qin family.

Judging from the way she is dressed as a woman, I don’t think she is the Seventh Princess.

I don’t know which lady from the Qin family she is?

Looking closely, her eyebrows looked a bit like the Queen Mother. It was said that the three sisters of the Qin family were the most beautiful in the capital when they were young. She had seen a portrait of her own mother-in-law, and it was really stunning.

So this young lady from the Qin family is so favored by the Queen Mother because she looks like her?

Wei couldn't help feeling depressed as she thought about it. The Qin family could actually give birth to such a beautiful daughter. Zhao Anrou looked like trash when she stood in front of her.

It is said that since her mother-in-law is stunningly beautiful, her daughter Xie Wan must also be as pretty as the moon and flowers. But maybe it’s because her husband is not good-looking, so Zhao Anrou can only be considered a pretty lady.

"This is Princess Mingjun of the Prince of Pingyang's Mansion, my newly-adopted niece." At this time, the Queen Mother pointed at Gu Zhiyin and introduced them to the two.

Xie Li bowed towards Gu Zhiyin.

Wei was stunned for a moment, then stood up and bowed.

Gu Zhiyin stood up and stepped aside, returning the greeting as a junior.

Wei was suspicious. She just recognized her niece?

Could it be that a young lady from the Qin family is also missing?

It was not until they left the palace that Wei asked Xie Li about the doubts in her heart.

Xie Li didn't know much about the Qin family and the major families in the capital.

"But I know the Prince of Pingyang. After the old prince and his second son died in battle, the youngest son inherited the title. His name is Fu Zheng."

Wei looked at her husband eagerly, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't continue to speak: "And then?"

Xie Li was stunned: "What then?"

Wei: "..."

I knew I couldn't get anything out of this idiot.

Soon, as if she had thought of something, she said, "Oh, right, Jichuan went to Beijing to study last year. He has been in Beijing for so long, he must know. Come back home, come back home."

As Wei said this, she urged the coachman to return home quickly.
