The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Chapter 89: Greetings to the Mother of a Nation

Aunt Zhen glanced at the Queen Mother and whispered, "The Queen Mother is satisfied with the Princess."

The Queen Mother picked up the sachet on her belt and played with it, the faint smile on her face making her look gentler.

"I had a good nap today."

With just one sentence, Aunt Zhen understood.

In the main hall of Fengyi Palace, the queen, dressed in a bright yellow phoenix robe, sat on a phoenix chair.

At this time, a voice announced, "Princess Yongkang has arrived!"

Except for the Queen, all the palace maids bowed slightly.

When the queen first saw the little girl, she walked to the center of the main hall in a dignified and graceful manner.

"Yongkang pays respect to Her Majesty the Queen. May Her Majesty be well."

When the queen saw the little girl take out her handkerchief and wave it gracefully in salute, her heart softened.

"Princess Yongkang, please don't be polite."

Shen Jiarou thanked her respectfully, "Thank you, Queen."

The girl's melodious, sweet and clear voice echoed in the hall.

"Keep your head up."

Hearing this, Shen Jiarou raised her head slightly. The pretty girl, even though she didn't smile, still had a bright look on her face.

"Well, not bad. It seems that the maids have taught you well."

Hearing the queen's praise, Shen Jiarou responded neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"The Queen has a variety of manners, so she should be treated with the best etiquette."

The queen was delighted to hear this, thinking that the little girl was quite good at talking.

"Princess Yongkang, please take a seat."

Shen Jiarou bowed gracefully, "Thank you, Queen Yongkang."

Nanny Wang helped her sit down, and seeing her posture, the Queen nodded silently.

It seems that the emperor values ​​this little girl very much. The maids who accompanied her were all people close to the emperor, which shows her status in the emperor's heart.

The queen raised her hand and pulled out the jade hairpin from her hair and handed it to Bai Yuechu, the head maid beside her.

"At the beginning of the month, give this jade hairpin to Princess Yongkang."

"Yes, Queen."

Bai Yuechu took it respectfully and walked towards Shen Jiarou.

"Princess Yongkang, this is our first meeting and I don't know what you like, so I'm giving you this jade hairpin as a gift."

Shen Jiarou stood up with some fear, "Yongkang thanks the Queen for the reward."

But the Queen's next words made her hand, which was about to take it, freeze in place.

"This jade hairpin was given to me by the Emperor. I saw that your hair decoration is quite simple and elegant, and I think this jade hairpin suits you very well."

Shen Jiarou was stunned: "..."

God, the jade hairpin given to the Queen was a reward from the Emperor, so she was in a dilemma whether to accept it or not.

Shen Jiarou finally said what was in her heart, "Empress, this is a gift from the Emperor. A gentleman should not take away someone else's love. I'm afraid Yongkang is not in a position to accept it."

The elegant and graceful queen smiled and said, "Child, take it. A gift from an elder should not be refused."

Shen Jiarou still looked up at Nanny Wang and Nanny Su, and when she saw them nod, she respectfully accepted it.

She took the jade hairpin and handed it carefully to Ruan Qingling beside her, then stroked her dress and sat down.

The Queen kept Shen Jiarou and talked to many people, asking her what she could do and what she had learned.

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty reviewed memorials until 7:45 p.m., and feeling tired, he raised his hand and pinched his brow.

Li Jiang was surprised when he saw it. "Your Majesty is tired, why not take a rest for a while?"

Only then did Emperor Yuan Shun remember the maid in the Empress Dowager's palace and asked with his head lowered.

"How is Princess Yongkang?"

Li Jiang quickly replied, "Your Majesty, Princess Yongkang is still in the Queen's Palace."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty looked up in surprise. “Oh.”

Then Emperor Yuan Shun pursed his lips and ordered, "Go to Fengyi Palace and pass on the oral order. I will have dinner with you. Let the Empress and Princess Yongkang accompany you."

Li Jiang was shocked. What did the emperor mean?

"Yes, I will send someone there right away."

Liu Xu came to Fengyi Palace and delivered an oral message, "Your servant pays respect to Her Majesty the Empress and Princess Yongkang."

The Queen raised her hand slightly and said, "Eunuch Liu, please don't be polite. Why are you coming here at this hour? Does the Emperor have any instructions?"

Liu Xu sneered, "Your Majesty, you guessed it right. The Emperor asked me to pass on his instructions."

Hearing this, Shen Jiarou stood up and straightened her back.

"The Emperor has ordered that I shall have dinner with you, and the Empress and Princess Yongkang shall accompany you."

The Queen, Shen Jiarou and the others bowed respectfully.

"I obey my orders."

After Liu Xu left, the queen lowered her head and looked meaningfully at the little girl who had stood up.

When Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty arrived at Fengyi Palace, it was already one quarter after midnight.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

The whole palace knelt and bowed, "Your Highness, I respectfully welcome you."

Shen Jiarou, who was lying on the ground, said, "Your Highness."

Emperor Shundi of Yuan Dynasty walked up to the empress, and his bright yellow figure bent slightly and stretched out his hand.

"Your Majesty, please excuse me."

The Queen looked up and saw the Emperor extending his hand, so she placed her hand in his and stood up.

"I thank you, Your Majesty."

Emperor Yuan Shun raised his eyes, glanced at the little girl who stood up, and gave a faint instruction.

"Follow."

Shen Jiarou was stunned, and for a moment she felt like a light bulb.

The meals in the Queen's Palace were also extremely rich. Even Shen Jiarou, who was used to eating many kinds of delicious food, was still dazzled.

Seeing the golden chopsticks on the table, Shen Jiarou complained slightly in her heart. It turned out that the palace was full of luxury and wealth created by gold.

Seeing the green dish in front of her, Shen Jiarou felt like it was a small cake, but now that it was placed on the dining table, it must still be a dish.

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty saw the little girl staring at the dishes in front of her and smiled faintly.

"Yi Yi, what's in front of you is emerald tofu."

After hearing Emperor Yuan Shun's explanation, Shen Jiarou was slightly stunned.

Emerald tofu?

Why is it different from the one in Chinese restaurant? That one is greener.

Although she had doubts in her heart, Shen Jiarou nodded lightly.

Seeing that the Emperor and the Empress were eating happily, Shen Jiarou turned her gaze to Yu Shi Qing Song, and the eunuch understood and immediately served her the food.

Shen Jiarou picked up the green pine from the bowl and chewed it, and couldn't help nodding.

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty couldn't help but burst out laughing when he saw her cute actions.

"Yiyi, how does it taste?"

Shen Jiarou smiled with bright eyes and replied, "Uncle Tian, ​​it tastes delicious. The chefs' cooking skills are amazing."

When the queen heard her address, she was stunned. Seeing that the emperor didn't react, she didn't say anything either.

After the meal, Shen Jiarou paid respects to the Emperor and Empress. When she returned to Fushou Palace, the Empress Dowager was feeling unwell and had already gone to bed.

This was Shen Jiarou's first night staying in the palace. She felt a little confused, but the initial uneasiness in her heart was no longer there.

The next morning, the sky was filled with morning glow. Outside the palace, birds scrambled to fly over the eaves.

Shen Jiarou woke up and got up when Ruan Qingling called her, and Zhen Luosang helped her walk to the dressing table.

The breakfast should be lighter. Shen Jiarou silently ate two bowls of pumpkin porridge and a white flour bun.

The Queen Mother also watched the little girl eat silently. Seeing her unabashed appetite, she was really stunned.

Shen Jiarou felt that she would definitely lose a few pounds after entering the palace for a few days. Oh, her baby fat, her peaceful and happy face...

In a corner of the Imperial Garden, Shen Jiarou sat on a wooden bench, touching her belly with her little hand.

Shen Jiarou sighed helplessly: She was hungry.

On the second day after entering the palace, she didn't eat enough even though she had lunch and dinner according to the rules.

At this time, she was very glad that she was only staying in the palace for a few days.
