Quick Wear: The female supporting role saves the luck of the male supporting role and loses himself

Lin Yi was still admiring Huo Chen's good ink, but she didn't know that rumors were spreading in the palace.

At this time in Zhaohua Palace, Queen Mother Zheng sat back in the chaise longue, holding a teacup, listening to Nanny Gui beside her reporting the news she had heard.

"According to Doctor Song from the Imperial Hospital, when Chief Steward Gao went to get medicine this morning, he claimed that a young eunuch serving in the Yangxin Palace was injured and asked for a blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing ointment. Furthermore, His Royal Highness the Regent personally ordered that he bring the best blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing ointment."

Queen Mother Zheng gently stirred the tea leaves with the cup lid, took a sip of tea, and her eyes were stunned for a moment.

Nanny Gui looked at her master's expression and continued, "The eunuch's name is Xiao Linzi. He served in Qiuhua Palace before, and after that incident, he became a cleaning eunuch in Yangxin Palace. The day before yesterday, he was slapped several meters away by the Regent because of his poor service, but the next day he was intact and continued to serve in Yangxin Palace. When the Regent left the palace to deal with the rumors yesterday, it was this eunuch who served in the East Warm Pavilion. Last night, the Regent had a headache and couldn't fall asleep, so he specifically asked Xiao Linzi to serve him. It's strange to say that the Regent's master was helpless with the Regent's insomnia and headache, but after Xiao Linzi went to serve in the back hall, the Regent fell asleep peacefully. The Regent, who has always been diligent, slept until the 9th hour of the morning before leaving the back hall today, and specially instructed Wei Huwei to notify Gao Zongguan to go to the Imperial Hospital to get medicine, and then sent a little eunuch to serve Xiao Linzi."

Nanny Gui added some exaggeration to her story and waited to see her master's reaction.

Empress Dowager Zheng laughed contemptuously, as if she was laughing at Lin Yi, or at Nanny Gui.

Queen Mother Zheng knew all too well what Nanny Gui was thinking. The people of the Zheng family thought that Huo Chen had chosen the Prince of Qi to sit on the throne from among the many princes for some reason, but only she knew that the arrogant, cold-blooded man had never even glanced at her from beginning to end.

Twelve years ago, Huo Chen was dressed in fine clothes and full of vigor and vigor, and he was the ideal husband in the hearts of many noble ladies in Kyoto. At that time, Empress Dowager Zheng was a young girl in love, proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and was recognized as the most talented woman in Kyoto. Everyone called them the most suitable golden boy and jade girl in Kyoto at that time. Only Empress Dowager Zheng knew how much Huo Chen disdained her at that time, or more precisely, Huo Chen disdained all the noble ladies in Kyoto. Later, it was reported that the Huo and Zheng families were interested in getting married, but in fact, only the Zheng family was enthusiastic. The increasingly declining Zheng family, seeing that it was about to lose the glory of the four major families, took a fancy to the Huo family, but did not expect that before they could get together with the Huo family, the Huo family suddenly collapsed.

The Zheng family then sent the Queen Mother Zheng as a chess piece into the palace, and now they want to sell themselves to Huo Chen again.

Queen Mother Zheng thought that those old people in the Zheng family were getting older and older. Twelve years ago, when she was in her prime, Huo Chen would not even look at her. Now, she was a middle-aged woman who had given birth to a child, and Huo Chen would fall in love with her!

Nanny Gui has always been the family's spy next to Queen Mother Zheng. Although Queen Mother Zheng doesn't want to face the unpredictable Huo Chen, she and her son still have to rely on the Zheng family to survive. Even if she is resentful and unwilling, Queen Mother Zheng still has to act according to the wishes of the family.

"Madame Gui, ask the kitchen to prepare a bowl of Tremella and Lotus Seed Soup. Bring His Majesty with you and we will go to the Yangxin Palace to meet His Royal Highness the Regent. His Majesty should also report his studies to His Royal Highness the Regent."

Queen Mother Zheng put down the teacup, gently wiped her lips with a white handkerchief, and gave instructions slowly.

Aunt Gui responded with great joy and went to the small kitchen to pass on the message.

"Empress Dowager, the last time you met His Royal Highness the Regent, the bruises on your knees hadn't healed because you knelt for too long. I don't know what kind of suffering you will have to endure this time!"

Xier, the personal maid of Queen Mother Zheng, said with heartache. Xier had served Queen Mother Zheng for nearly twenty years, and only she knew how difficult it had been for Queen Mother Zheng along the way.

In the boudoir, in order to meet the expectations of her family, Queen Mother Zheng practiced various skills, and the hardships she endured were unimaginable for ordinary people. Finally, she became the most talented woman in Kyoto. When she was looking forward to finding a husband of her dreams, she was sent to the palace to serve the old emperor who was nearly fifty years old. She still remembers the disgust Queen Mother Zheng felt when she scrubbed her body after her first bed. After she became pregnant, she had to guard against the open and secret attacks of other concubines in the palace. After giving birth to the King of Qi, she finally lived a peaceful life for a few years, but then the Regent rebelled. After extreme panic, she found that His Royal Highness the Regent did not treat them mother and son harshly. As long as they were obedient and did not provoke His Royal Highness the Regent, their lives would be more comfortable than when the old emperor was there. But the people of the Zheng family were not quiet, and they forced their master to take risks again and again.

Queen Mother Zheng sighed and said helplessly: "The situation is complicated now. The lives of your Majesty and I are in the hands of others. We can only take it one step at a time."

"My queen, you've suffered so much!" Xier said distressedly, wiping her tears.

"Well, you're almost thirty years old, and I, the real owner, haven't even wiped my tears yet, but you've already started!" Queen Mother Zheng tapped Xier's forehead with amusement.

"Your Majesty, how can you still laugh? You will be going to see the Regent soon. Every time I see the Regent, I get so scared that my calves get cramped." Xier said with lingering fear.

"Then you don't have to go this time. Let Nanny Gui go with you. Scare her this time and see if she will still try to get close to His Royal Highness the Regent." Empress Dowager Zheng said cunningly, which immediately made Xier laugh.

Lin Yi, who had been very diligent all afternoon, was flitting around the Yangxin Palace like a butterfly. Wei Qing suddenly felt that the usually deserted Yangxin Palace had come alive, and it was rare that the prince did not get angry.

When Empress Dowager Zheng brought the little emperor and Nanny Gui into the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, they happened to see Lin Yi sitting on a low table drinking water.

When Lin Yi discovered that she poured herself some water and drank it secretly while boiling water for tea, Huo Chen did not blame her, so she became more and more unscrupulous. Unexpectedly, she was caught by others.

Lin Yi put the tea bowl on the low table awkwardly, stood up, holding Huo Chen's teacup and walked to the desk. After putting the teacup away properly, she began to look at the beauty and the little boy who walked in.

Lin Yi thought to herself, no wonder Queen Mother Zheng was famous in Kyoto when she was a girl! Even after giving birth to a child, she is still as beautiful as a fairy and charming. How high must Huo Chen's standards be to not look down on such a beauty. And this little boy, delicate and delicate, wearing a bright yellow brocade robe, I really want to hold him in my arms and kiss him!

"Your Highness, are you doing well these days? I have specially asked someone to cook some Tremella and lotus seed soup, please have a taste." Queen Mother Zheng said in a dignified manner.
