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

At this moment, the girl who was pushed aside turned her eyes and realized that her chance had come.

She suggested softly, "Empress Dowager, I have been taught by my parents and elders since I was young, so I know a little bit about tea making. The tea I make is barely drinkable. Why don't I make tea for you?"

She wanted to take advantage of Concubine Yuan's reputation and show off in front of the Empress Dowager. As long as she could surpass Concubine Yuan, why would she worry that the Emperor would not look upon her with a higher regard?

The Queen Mother was still angry, but when she heard what the girl said, she immediately knew what she was thinking.

But this was exactly what she wanted.

So he nodded and agreed, "Go ahead."

The girl was delighted, stood up, and deliberately looked at Ji Yunqing before leaving.

"Empress Yuan..."

Ji Yunqing immediately understood what she meant: "Give me one too."

The girl was at a loss: “…”Ah?

The Queen Mother was also surprised. Did she want to ask you this?

No matter what the other party wanted to say, Ji Yunqing was already looking at him with anticipation, and saw that he hadn't left yet.

She was slightly puzzled: "What else do you want to say? Are you asking me what kind of tea I want to drink? I can drink anything."

Everyone present was speechless: "..."

Then you're really not picky.

The girl forced a smile and said, "I will go right away."

After everyone left, the Queen Mother gently scolded, "Do you know where that girl comes from? She is the granddaughter of Marquis Zhongxin, and a famous talented woman in the capital."

It is not a dilapidated marquisate. The Marquis of Zhongxin is highly trusted by the emperor.

Ji Yunqing asked back: "Does the Queen Mother know where I come from?"

The Queen Mother didn't even think about it. Aren't you just the daughter of a poor family? How can you compare with others?

Oh, the most miraculous thing in your life is that your biological father was suddenly favored by Prince Ping, who forcibly married him and now he is pregnant.

Did you know that the ministers in the court had a big argument over this matter some time ago?

It is said that a hen crowing at dawn is a huge disaster, but our ancestors never said whether it is a blessing or a curse for a man to bear a child.

The empress dowager looked at Ji Yunqing with sidelong eyes, thinking that this woman only dared to act like a spoiled child in front of her because she had the emperor as her backer.

If she wasn't the imperial concubine appointed by the emperor himself, she would have had her dragged out long ago.

As a result, a big head suddenly occupied the entire field of vision.

Queen Mother: “!!!”

Her heart was pounding like thunder, and it took her a long time to recover.

Ji Yunqing held her pretty face in her hands, looked at the Queen Mother with sparkling eyes, and said seriously: "I am the little darling of the Queen Mother's family!"

Hearing her words, the Queen Mother's face turned pale and blue. Who, who is your little baby?

No, my little baby is not you!

She opened her mouth, not knowing how to respond, and finally said simply: "The imperial concubine should be more serious."

Ji Yunqing gently placed one hand on the empress dowager's shoulder, leaned close to her ear and whispered, "I am a serious person."

A warm breath brushed past the empress dowager's ears. She moved her shoulders uncomfortably, and the tips of her ears turned red.

She wondered, was this the kind of pillow talk that the emperor often enjoyed?

Now she can actually enjoy it.

There is a weird feeling in my heart.

No wonder the late emperor liked it so much when he was alive.

Is this thanks to the emperor’s son?

Ji Yunqing thought that the empress dowager was truly a beautiful woman. Even though she had given birth to a son as old as the emperor, he still looked very handsome.

It's very well maintained.

Just as she was about to say something to ease the situation, she planned to ask the Queen Mother how she maintained her looks when she had the chance.

Then I saw the noble lady from the Marquis's Mansion coming over step by step, holding a vermilion tray with two cups of tea on it.

She is indeed an excellent girl who has been carefully nurtured since childhood. Her every move is so perfect.

The perfect noblewoman of the Marquis' Mansion first served tea to the Queen Mother, then walked to Ji Yunqing with a tray, her voice as clear as a stream:

"My Lady, I am delighted to see you. May I call you sister?"

Ji Yunqing looked at the other person with a puzzled look: "No need, since you are so happy, I will do you a favor today and you can call me wife."

The noble lady of the Marquis' Mansion was stunned: "...Ah?"

As far as she knows, isn't the title "wife" the name used by couples in some places to address women?

Your Majesty, is this right?

Ji Yunqing coughed lightly: "If you don't want to, forget it, just call me the Imperial Concubine. It's not easy to become the Imperial Concubine, I want to hear more"

The girl from the Marquis Mansion looked a little stiff: "...Yes"

Taught by her mother since she was young, she actually knows what to say in different situations in order to achieve her goals.

But she really couldn't think of a way to respond to some of the words of this imperial concubine.

The Queen Mother calmed down and watched the conversation between the two coldly.

Suddenly he proposed: "I have often dreamed of the late emperor recently, and I want to copy scriptures for him. I will leave this task to you."

The granddaughter of Marquis Zhongxin is a talented woman, so copying Buddhist scriptures is no problem for her. But Concubine Yuan is not known for her talent.

By then, the difference will be clear, and even the emperor would not be biased, right?

Copying Buddhist scriptures?

Ji Yunqing looked at the Queen Mother again and again, with an expression as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

This made the Queen Mother happy again, "Come here, prepare paper and pen."

Ji Yunqing finally couldn't help it: "Empress Dowager, the words I wrote..."

The Queen Mother was unhappy: "You can't say that even dogs don't look at it, right?"

"no no"

Ji Yunqing quickly shook her head: "I just want to say that every time the emperor sees it, he thinks I am wasting paper."

Facing the Queen Mother's expression that would not change, Ji Yunqing had no choice but to change his words: "Well, the Emperor doesn't really dislike it.

Perhaps we can expect that this special aesthetic is passed down from generation to generation, and the late emperor would not dislike it, right? "

Half an hour later, the young lady from the Marquis's Mansion won praise from everyone for her calligraphy with flowers in her hair.

On the other hand, Concubine Yuan opened her innocent big eyes and wrote a row of chicken claw-like characters.

The Queen Mother looked at the words that no one could recognize and found a way to vent her emotions: "Royal Concubine, are you trying to please me?"

Ji Yunqing argued confidently and shamelessly, "My lady, it's alright if you don't like it, but you can't slander me!

Look at this calligraphy... The late emperor never said he didn't like it!"

The Queen Mother was so angry that her chest heaved violently: ... Could the late emperor have said that?

Ji Yunqing made the final decision: "The late emperor didn't say he didn't like it, that means he was satisfied with it. How do we send this Buddhist scripture to the late emperor? Do we need to offer it to the late emperor's mausoleum?"

Queen Mother: "It needs to be offered before the Buddha..."

"That's fine. The Buddha is used to seeing those good words. Maybe these ones of mine will please the Buddha more. Let's go and offer them to him now."

At this moment, there was a noise outside the door.

The Queen Mother frowned, and soon she heard a palace maid report that the Queen had arrived.

Not knowing why the Queen suddenly came to Ci'an Palace, the Queen Mother paused and said, "Summon her in."

After a while, the queen came in hurriedly.

Only when she saw Ji Yunqing standing there unharmed and with a rosy complexion did she feel relieved.
