It's great, another day of lying down and idling in the palace

Arriving at Ci'an Palace, Ji Yunqing looked over and saw a woman in gorgeous but dark clothes sitting at the top.

I didn't see the Queen, nor Concubine Jing, but I did see another girl of about sixteen or seventeen, with a noble temperament, sitting next to the Queen Mother. She was chatting and laughing with her, and her attitude was extremely close.

Further down there were a few women in noble clothes. Ji Yunqing recognized one of them as the one who had spoken to her in Kunning Palace yesterday.

Ji Yunqing withdrew his gaze.

Then he stood upright in the center of the hall.

The Queen Mother seemed not to notice her and continued to chat and laugh with the girl, laughing as if she was very happy.

This was the first time Ji Yunqing had encountered such treatment, and she thought, was this a show of power to her?

She felt a surge of excitement in her heart; she had never been treated like this before. But after standing there for a while, she felt bored.

She began to count sheep in her mind: one sheep, two sheep, three sheep, roasted whole sheep…

Seeing Ji Yunqing standing there without bowing, the nanny beside the Queen Mother suddenly shouted: "How dare you, Imperial Concubine, not bowing when you see the Queen Mother!"

Ji Yunqing was startled and came back to his senses instantly.

She recognized that the nanny was Nanny Liu who had been to Prince Zhao's mansion before.

But this is not the time to reminisce about the past. Facing the Queen Mother's scrutiny, Ji Yunqing said frankly:

"Your Highness, I have known the rules since I entered the palace. I am now waiting for the girl accompanying the Queen to remember that she cannot be saluted by the Imperial Concubine, and to move aside so that I can salute her."

The Queen Mother's face suddenly fell.

He snorted coldly, "You are so flattering. I am here, so can't I ask you to bow?"

Ji Yunqing immediately responded: "No"

Queen Mother: "..."

Is this person so direct in his speech?

The Queen Mother had been in the deep palace for many years and had never seen such a straightforward rejection. She was unable to react for a moment.

Ji Yunqing sighed helplessly: "Queen Dowager, if I pay my respects to this girl, the Emperor will definitely punish me.

You asked me if I was crazy? You spit on me for being shameless, a mean person, ignorant of rules and etiquette. Was the imperial decree that made me a concubine in vain? "

The Queen Mother heard this and said, "What nonsense! It's all just sophistry!"

To the girl's ears, the words Ji Yunqing said seemed to have a hidden meaning, describing her as not knowing the rules.

She was very unhappy in her heart. This girl was just as the empress dowager said, a girl from a poor family, not worthy of the position of imperial concubine.

But her eyes were filled with tears and red, as if she had been greatly insulted. "Your Highness the Queen Mother and the Imperial Concubine are right. I'd better stay away from them."

The Queen Mother was very stubborn: "No need to avoid it. I want to see if this Imperial Concubine will really not pay respect to me."

She just wanted to kill her prestige.

Ji Yunqing sighed helplessly: "The Queen Mother insists on this, then allow me to ask a question, today I bow to this noble lady, so will the Emperor also bow to this noble lady in the future?"

The girl turned pale when she heard this. Who would dare to ask the emperor to salute?

Is she crazy?

Now no matter what the Queen Mother said, she quickly stood up and moved aside.

Ji Yunqing was helpless about this. Just run away like that?

All right, Ji Yunqing bowed to the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother was reluctant to call out.

She knew the answer to this question, so Ji Yunqing stood up by herself.

She doesn't need anyone to call her.

She even explained: "The Queen Mother must have forgotten to let me get up. I couldn't let the Queen Mother bear this infamy, so I had to force myself to get up."

Queen Mother: "..."

Who forgot?

Who is this old?

"you……"

Ji Yunqing looked innocent: "Could it be that the Queen Mother deliberately didn't ask me to get up? No way, no way? The Queen Mother is so...hmm..."

The Queen Mother sneered: "What? Tell me!"

I guess she doesn't dare to say it.

Ji Yunqing blinked innocently: "Queen Dowager, you asked me to say this. How dare you be so ruthless and bully me, a weak woman like me?"

After saying this, she looked around and asked, "Empress Dowager, I really can't stand standing any longer. Where should I sit?"

The Queen Mother said with a dark face: "You don't have to sit down, come and serve me."

Ji Yunqing followed the instructions and walked towards the Queen Mother, then squeezed himself between the Queen Mother and the girl.

With a face full of joy, she said to the Queen Mother: "That's good now. We are so close. Queen Mother, you can tell me whatever you want to say."

The Queen Mother sat close to her, with a cold face and a frosty body.

She let her stand!

Don't you understand?

The girl over there couldn't help but move to the side, so Ji Yunqing sat more comfortably.

She raised her hand and held the empress dowager's thin arm, while domineeringly pulling the girl's thin arm

——The weak resistance from these two people was easily suppressed by her.

If you don't resist, it means you are not sincere. You are just trying to please her and want her to hold you. There is nothing wrong with that.

Then Ji Yunqing sighed with emotion: "When I came here just now, I envied this girl for being so close to the Queen Mother.

Naturally, I cannot do anything worse than this girl. The Queen Mother will surely be pleased with my filial piety, right?"

Listen, she is so filial!

The Queen Mother said coldly: "..."

I am not relieved.

But she was forced to hold her arms and couldn't pull them back.

What exactly is the story behind the Emperor's appointment of Concubine Yuan?

Did he choose them based on their strength?

Hearing that Concubine Yuan said that she could tell her anything, the Queen Mother did not hesitate: "Ji, I want to drink tea."

Drinking tea is a very particular thing. If the tea is too hot or too cold, the taste is not right, the water or tea leaves are not right, you can go through this many times.

She must teach Concubine Yuan a lesson!

Just as she was thinking of eighteen punishments, she saw that Concubine Yuan didn't even move. She turned her head and said to Aunt Liu, "Didn't you hear that the Queen Mother wanted tea? Hurry up and bring it!"

Aunt Liu looked at the Queen Mother blankly: "..."

Are you asking me to go?

Queen Mother: "..."

She glared at Ji Yunqing.

"Didn't you say you would listen to my orders? I want to drink the tea you made yourself!"

Ji Yunqing smoothly interjected: "Ah? Do you really want to drink it?"

She looked embarrassed: "But the emperor has strictly forbidden me to make tea."

why?

The Queen Mother was extremely rebellious.

I was just about to say, what if she insists that Concubine Yuan make tea?

Ji Yunqing raised her chin slightly and said firmly: "The emperor said that dogs would not drink the tea I made!"

Then her eyes lit up, and she looked at the Queen Mother expectantly, and couldn't help but be eager to try: "Queen Mother, do you want to drink?

Everyone in the palace knows that you are the most kindhearted. You must want to drink, right? Do you want to drink?"

Queen Mother: "..."

The Queen Mother's face turned red with anger: "Forget it!"

I don't necessarily have to drink tea.

"Oh"

Concubine Yuan's disappointment was visibly evident.

She couldn't help asking again: "You really don't want to drink it? Actually, the tea I brewed is..."

When the Queen Mother looked over, she knew that this woman had just been pretending to be crazy and talking nonsense.

Then she heard Ji Yunqing's gentle voice instigating her: "...it won't necessarily kill someone with the poison."

Queen Mother: ...Get out of here!
