Remarry 9,000 Years Old

Chapter 73 Let’s use a new word for provocation

I finally went to Kunning Palace.

Because the prince couldn't explain the reason, but the etiquette could not be abolished.

Moreover, judging from the Queen's instigation before, it seemed that she had some ill intentions towards Ning Su, so she had to figure out the whole thing.

The main thing is that in this world, it is easy to dodge an open attack, but it is difficult to guard against pillow talk.

The prince couldn't persuade her and had to go with her.

Kunning Palace is where successive empresses lived, so the layout is naturally impeccable, but as soon as Shen Nanqiao stepped in, he felt depressed.

It had just snowed in the yard, and a half-grown girl was seen standing in the yard with a bowl on her head. There was a nanny next to her, instructing her meticulously.

"Don't shake this shoulder, and don't let any of the water spill out!"

Shen Nanqiao had been under strict discipline in the mansion since she was young. The nanny beside Old Madam Shen had watched her learn for two full years.

Everything from the curvature of a smile to the posture of walking is measured inch by inch with a ruler.

But when she saw the scene before her, she paused.

Who would learn etiquette by balancing a bowl on their head in the snow? Even in the streets, there is no such reason.

The girl looked miserable and almost cried.

"This is Concubine An's little princess." The prince said sympathetically, "The Queen Mother brings her here every now and then to learn the rules."

Concubine An? Shen Nanqiao racked his brains to recall anything about this person, but came up blank. It was obvious that she was like an invisible presence in the harem.

Such a low-profile concubine, who gave birth to a princess, would not be an obstacle to the throne. Why should we humiliate her?

But this doubt flashed through her mind, and she entered Kunning Palace without stopping.

The queen was looking outside through the window and was not surprised to see her come in.

"Madam Ning is the daughter of the Minister of Rites, so she is naturally very well behaved. Take a look at the princess's behavior, what do you think?"

If you don't answer this question well, it's easy to offend people.

Shen Nanqiao leaned forward slightly, looking embarrassed.

"When I was your age, I definitely could not do this well."

The queen glanced at her and chuckled.

"Mrs. Changchen is really good at talking. She has really learned this watertight character 100% from him."

Shen Nanqiao had heard this many times, so his answers were naturally more slick.

"It is only natural that the husband should sing and the wife should follow."

The queen glanced at the prince who followed in and said nothing else.

Shen Nanqiao told the Queen Mother everything about the banquet she was going to hold. The Prince was afraid that the Queen would say something embarrassing, so he hurried to make amends.

"What the Empress Dowager meant is that you have too many things to do in your later years, and Madam Pingyang can help you."

He specifically used the title given to Shen Nanqiao by the emperor as a reminder.

But the queen ignored it and stared at Shen Nanqiao's face carefully.

The young girl's skin is tight and delicate, without any signs of aging.

That kind of freshness cannot be achieved by any amount of jade cream or fairy dew.

The queen was discouraged for a moment, but she suppressed her frustration.

Then he raised his hand and asked someone to call the princess and the nanny in.

"This is Princess Chongde, the daughter of Concubine An. She doesn't behave properly. I think it must be because Nanny Yin taught her badly. So, Madam Ningyang, are you willing to teach her?"

This is an offensive job. Even if Concubine An no longer has a sense of existence, she is still a concubine in the harem after all.

Moreover, the fact that there was a child by her side in a harem where there were few offspring was enough to show that Emperor Ming had feelings for her.

If you create a grudge, it will not be a good thing for you.

The prince took the lead and blocked the way.

"Isn't this inappropriate? A visitor is a guest, and Madam Pingyang is not a maid from the Shangyi Bureau."

The Queen raised an eyebrow.

"The Crown Prince and Madam Pingyang get along really well. It's rare to see you speak up for one of them."

There aren't so many tricks between mother and son, but the prince always seems to be on edge in front of the queen.

"It's rare for Otomo to marry a wife, so I think I should take care of her as much as I can."

The queen's face darkened, but she said nothing more. She glanced at Princess Chongde.

"Whether you can persuade Madam Pingyang to teach you depends on your luck."

The princess lowered her head and said nothing. It seemed that she was used to being bullied.

Seeing the stalemate, Shen Nanqiao smiled gently.

"I absolutely don't dare to teach. If the princess doesn't mind, I can help her to entertain her when I have time."

This was to give each other a way out, and Princess Chongde was also very tactful and bowed properly.

The queen's face became increasingly unhappy. She waved her hand and sent the princess and the prince away.

The prince originally wanted to wait for Shen Nanqiao to join him, but the queen spoke harshly to him.

"Even though she is my wife, there is still a difference between men and women. It's ridiculous to always mix them up!"

Speaking of reputation and integrity, the prince could not stay any longer. He could only glance at Shen Nanqiao and walk away, looking back every few steps.

There were only the queen and her in the huge inner hall.

The queen sat down on the bed, turned her eyes away, picked up the teacup and took a sip, then spoke slowly.

"Regarding the banquet, you draw up a list. Family members of officials of the third rank and above can post invitations."

Shen Nanqiao guessed that she wanted to be a hands-off boss, so he didn't refuse and agreed to all her requests.

The Queen didn't seem to have any intention of making things difficult for her. She just kept looking at her as if she was weighing something, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

Shen Nanqiao suppressed the discomfort in his heart.

"If the Queen has no other instructions, I will take my leave now."

The Queen put down her teacup.

"Did you know that the Ninth Princess is back?"

Shen Nanqiao sneered in his heart, why would anyone want to use this as a handle to make trouble for himself?

It is not difficult to see that Ning Su’s popularity in the harem is indeed not very good.

"I know, and I have seen her at the Queen Mother's."

Seeing that her expression was as calm as a mountain, the queen smiled and nodded.

"What a coincidence. You should thank her. If she hadn't married Old Nine, the Lady of Pingyang today would have to be someone else." She paused, as if waiting for Shen Nanqiao's reaction. "They say old love is easiest to rekindle. I'm watching you. You better be careful."

In his previous life, Shen Nanqiao didn't think that the queen was such a simple-minded person. Even her methods of provoking her were so straightforward that they were almost superficial.

"Thank you for your advice, Madam. If my husband wanted to marry her, he would have married her back then, and would not have waited until now. So I have nothing to worry about." She smiled lightly, "Besides, if a man's heart is not with you, there is no point in being worried."

The queen's face darkened, but Shen Nanqiao showed no fear.

"If your majesty has finished teaching, I will go to the emperor to report, so as not to be late and disrespectful."

The queen barely suppressed the anger boiling in her heart.

"Since Madam Pingyang is unwilling to talk to me more, then go ahead."

Shen Nanqiao walked out of Kunning Palace without touching the ground.

It was windy and snowy outside, and the cold air scraped through the exposed skin like a small knife.

Nanny Liu did not come with her. Shen Nanqiao wrapped her cloak tightly, looked around, and tried to find the way to the front hall from her memory.

However, everywhere she looked was white, and she became a little nervous for a rare moment.

I walked out along the wall and before I turned the corner, I saw someone holding an umbrella coming towards me in the distance.

Shen Nanqiao knew that there were a lot of gossips in the palace, and it would be easy to get into trouble if he met a troublesome master or queen.

So she changed direction and hurriedly ran towards the back hall not far away, where there was an alley that led directly to the Qianqing Palace.

However, when he turned around, he saw a person dressed as a palace maid, looking around stealthily.

Shen Nanqiao subconsciously hid in the corner, and saw a eunuch walking quickly from the alley. It was unknown what the two of them exchanged.

She frowned. It was common for palace maids and eunuchs to be in pairs, but not many would dare to do so in broad daylight.

Thinking of this, she leaned forward slightly, and the eunuch happened to look up as well.

Shen Nanqiao was shocked, this was clearly the most capable attendant around Ning Su.

Because she had used this person as a cover to fool her brother's lover before, she paid special attention to this person's appearance and was sure he would not be wrong.

What made her even more frightened was that the man handed the palace maid a packet of medicine or something like that.

Shen Nanqiao had never hated her vision as much as she did now. Her back felt cold and her palms were sweating. She backed away and tried to leave this place of trouble.

But she unexpectedly bumped into someone's arms. At that moment she was horrified. When she subconsciously wanted to scream, a hand covered her mouth tightly.
