Who cares about belated family affection? Family members beg for forgiveness

The imperial carriage was waiting at the gate of the Water Palace early in the morning.

This was something Shui Wan'er had never expected.

She didn't expect the queen to be so attentive.

She also frowned deeply at this.

The Queen must have something to ask of her.

I don't know what to do with her at this time?

She leaned over to the maid and whispered something.

Then he slowly walked towards the imperial carriage.

The palace maid came up quickly and saluted Shui Wan'er with a smile.

"Zi Jin has met Miss Shui."

Zijin is the queen's personal maid.

The queen specially sent her to pick up Shui Wan'er.

It shows how much he values Shui Wan'er.

She also knew what the Queen meant.

So he was especially respectful to Shui Wan'er.

This level of respect was almost as if he treated Shui Wan'er as her master.

Shui Wan'er raised her eyebrows and quickly dodged.

He only accepted half of Zi Jin's gift.

After all, she is the Queen's personal maid, who dares to neglect her?

To a certain extent, purple gold represents the queen.

Shui Wan'er smiled and said:

"Aunt Zijin, please excuse me for coming to the Water Mansion in person. This is Wan'er's fault."

"Miss Shui, don't say that. It's my honor to come and pick you up."

Hearing Zijin's name.

Shui Wan'er's heart skipped a beat.

so serious?

What the hell is the Queen doing?

No matter how worried Shui Wan'er was.

He quickly got on the imperial carriage.

Listen to the rumbling sound of the carriage.

Shui Wan'er's heartbeat became faster and faster.

Zijin was sitting opposite her.

Want to help the queen test.

But I don’t know how to start.

She could only chat casually:

"Miss Shui, how do you feel after returning to the capital? Is Fengyue City better, or is the capital better?"

Shui Wan'er pursed her lips and smiled.

"Aunt Zijin, why do you ask this? If Wan'er had to pick one, she really couldn't."

Zi Jin raised an eyebrow: "Oh, then Miss Shui, can you tell me what are the advantages of both places?"

Seeing Zijin's easygoing smile on his face.

Then I knew she was not testing me, but was simply talking to pass the time.

"Life in Fengyue City is very comfortable. Every day, besides reading with my grandfather in the study, I learn various etiquette with my mother.

Days like this are peaceful and calm, yet very comfortable."

"Oh! Miss Shui, you can also live this kind of life in the capital. Is there any difference?"

Shui Wan'er smiled and said, "Aunt Zijin, what's different about the capital? I think everyone who lives in the capital, whether they are masters or servants, can notice it."

Zijin smiled and nodded without saying anything else.

The imperial carriage slowly stopped outside Jingde Palace.

Zijin quickly got off the carriage.

He reached out to support Shui Wan'er.

Shui Wan'er's hand paused for a moment.

Zi Jin smiled and said, "Miss Shui, do you dislike my hands?"

Things had come to this point, and even though Shui Wan'er was reluctant, she still put her hand on it.

"Thank you, Aunt Zijin. I don't mean to dislike you. I just don't want to tire you out."

As Zi Jin spoke, he led Shui Wan'er into the main hall.

Shui Wan'er bowed respectfully to the queen.

"Your humble servant pays homage to the Queen. May the Queen live a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand thousand years."

The queen stared at Shui Wan'er's etiquette movements carefully.

It seems that what she did was pretty standard.

It seems that even if the Shui family left the capital.

Deep down in my heart, I haven't forgotten the things in the capital.

Or maybe they are reminding themselves of the future every day.

The queen nodded with satisfaction.

"Wan'er, get up. There's no need to be polite when you see me."

Zijin refilled their tea.

Then he waved and led everyone in the main hall to leave.

Only the Queen, Shui Wan'er, and Zi Jin were left in the main hall, waiting on the side.

Shui Wan'er saw this scene out of the corner of her eye.

My heart was in my throat again.

But she didn't rush to ask questions.

Instead, he slowly picked up the teacup.

Took a sip of warm tea.

So that I can calm down.

The Queen also did not speak.

Her eyes were all on the teacup, as if the water in it was more interesting.

After three cups of tea.

Shui Wan'er could hardly bear it any longer.

The queen then spoke softly.

"The Shui family is indeed well-educated. If it were an ordinary woman, she wouldn't be able to drink even a cup of tea like this with me."

Hearing the Queen's words, Shui Wan'er breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but her face remained calm.

"Your Majesty, you are so kind and gracious. Only those who are tactless would disturb the tranquility of drinking tea."

The Queen smiled and nodded:

"Well! How do you feel now that you're back in the capital?"

It's the same question again.

Shui Wan'er repeated what she had just said.

The Queen laughed and said, "Yes, a place like Fengyue City must be very good, otherwise it wouldn't have nurtured a quiet and peaceful personality like yours, Wan'er."

"Your Majesty, I'm too kind. Wan'er has only been with Grandfather every day and has learned his ways."

Hearing this, the queen was even happier.

The Fourth Prince's temper requires someone like Shui Wan'er to suppress him.

Don’t you know what the future will be like?

"Wan'er, aren't you curious about why I summoned you to the palace today?"

Shui Wan'er pursed her lips and smiled:

"Empress, Wan'er likes the taste of this tea more than the others."

The Queen pursed her lips and smiled:

"So, you can calm down and savor the tea carefully? Since you like it so much, just take some home and savor it carefully."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will respectfully obey your command."

The two chatted and laughed for a while.

The Queen began to test the situation:

"Wan'er, since returning to Qing, how many times have you met the Fourth Prince?"

Shui Wan'er had never met the Fourth Prince in private.

It was only at the palace banquet that day and the lake cruise yesterday.

Shui Wan'er did not hide:

"Replying to the Empress, twice."

There was no other expression on the Queen's face.

"Well! You've only been back in the capital for a few days, and you've already met twice. This proves that you two are destined to be together."

When Shui Wan'er heard this, her heart skipped a beat.

She seemed to have sensed the Queen's intention in sending her here.

At this moment, she couldn't sit still for a moment and just wanted to leave.

"Your Majesty, thank you for the compliment..."

The Queen Mother did not give her the chance to continue.

"Wan'er, in your opinion, what kind of person is the Fourth Prince? I want to hear the truth, okay?"

No matter what Shui Wan'er thought in her heart, even if she didn't like it, he would just complain in his heart.

It's not obvious on his face.

She smiled faintly: "In reply to the Queen, the Fourth Prince has a very good temper. He is a handsome and elegant man, gentle and refined, and his attitude towards others is beyond reproach..."

The Queen was dissatisfied with Shui Wan'er's evaluation of her son.

"Then do you think the prince is smart? Does he have strategy?"

Shui Wan'er still replied calmly:

"Your Majesty, they are all sons of the Emperor. Which one of them is a fool?"

I heard Shui Wan'er reply vaguely.

The queen was still unhappy.

"So, who is smarter, the Fourth Prince or the Sixth Prince?"

The Queen knew very well that the Fourth Prince was far inferior to the Sixth Prince.

However, she still wanted to see what Shui Wan'er had to say.
