The queen is crazy and spoiled, and the tyrant bows to her

Chapter 128 Qin's Mother and Daughter Enter the Palace

Xiuzhu was also very excited. He kept muttering to himself all morning, and finally couldn't help but take two palace maids to wait at the palace gate.

Yun Shang also specially prepared a table of exquisite snacks.

Jiang Wantang sat in the courtyard in a formal dress, looking towards the gate of Changle Palace.

Less than half an hour later, she saw Xiuzhu walking in with a bad look on his face. Before she could ask anything, she saw Qin in a gorgeous crimson-purple dress and Jiang Wanhe in a light yellow dress walking in behind her.

Jiang Wantang frowned. What bad luck...

As soon as the mother and daughter entered the door, they were amazed by the magnificent scene in the courtyard. Especially the little girl Jiang Wanhe, who looked at the beautiful flowers blooming in the courtyard with eyes full of envy and jealousy, and she could hardly walk.

When Qin saw the smile on Jiang Wantang's face, she immediately became fawning and quickly pulled Jiang Wanhe in front of her.

This time, Qin didn't urge her, so Jiang Wanhe called out obediently, "Sister."

Jiang Wantang curled her lips and looked at the mother and daughter in front of her with a half-smile, without responding.

Qin didn't mind either. She walked forward enthusiastically and wanted to hold Jiang Wantang's hand, but was stopped by Xiuzhu.

Xiuzhu said bluntly, "Madam Prime Minister, you should kneel and bow to my wife when you see her."

Qin smiled awkwardly and said, "How can a mother kneel before her daughter in this world? Besides, we are all family, and there are no outsiders here. Why bother with these empty formalities? Tang'er, don't you agree?"

Jiang Wantang looked indifferent and still had no intention of paying attention to her.

Xiuzhu almost wanted to curse, but Yunchang smiled and said at the right moment, "The palace has strict rules and regulations, and there are many eyes watching inside and outside. Madam, you'd better behave yourself."

Qin had no way to refute, so she could only pull Jiang Wanhe and reluctantly bow.

Jiang Wantang knew very well that Qin was a person who would not come to visit someone unless there was something important, so she must have come here to ask for something.

She sneered in her heart, but her face remained calm. She said, "If you have anything to say, go in and tell me."

After saying that, she turned and walked towards the main hall.

"Okay." Qin smiled and followed.

Jiang Wanhe had long been attracted by the flowers in the courtyard. She ignored Qin's pulling and said, "Sister, your courtyard is so big and beautiful. I want to walk around for a while, so I won't go in."

Jiang Wantang's cold voice rang out: "It's up to you."

Qin followed Jiang Wantang into the main hall and was stunned by the exquisite and luxurious furnishings and layout inside.

The floor of the hall was covered with thick velvet carpets, which were soft and silent when stepped on. In the center was a rosewood chair inlaid with gems. Her eyes moved across the dazzling glass lamps, the exquisitely carved beams and pillars, and the luxurious brocade curtains, her eyes full of surprise and greed.

This was not her first time to attend a palace banquet, but she had no idea that a concubine's palace could be decorated so luxuriously.

Qin couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Tang'er... your palace is too luxurious."

"It seems the rumors are true. His Majesty really values ​​you very much."

"Seeing that you are living well in the palace, mother is relieved."

Qin said this on the surface, but in fact, the jealousy in her heart grew stronger and stronger. She cursed secretly: "You damn girl, you live so well in the palace, but you don't know how to help your family. You are really a heartless and ungrateful person."

Jiang Wantang saw what Qin was thinking, smiled sarcastically, and said directly: "Where is my brother? Why didn't you come today?"

Qin's face froze, and her eyes flickered unnaturally: "Your brother has been busy with official duties recently and can't get away."

"I heard from Chief Steward Wang that you missed your family. Mother and He'er are your closest relatives in this world, so I immediately brought He'er to the palace to see you."

Jiang Wantang was almost laughing at Qin's shameless appearance. She said coldly, "If I remember correctly, the Prime Minister's wife threatened to sever her mother-daughter relationship with me before I entered the palace and that we would never have any contact again."

"Your precious daughters are only Jiang Wanfu and Jiang Wanhe. What does this have to do with me?"

Seeing Jiang Wantang's indifferent attitude, Qin Shi immediately panicked and couldn't speak straight: "Tang...Tang'er..."

"Mother was so angry that she lost her mind and said things without thinking. You are the flesh and blood that fell from my body after ten months of pregnancy. How could I sever the ties of blood that bind us so tightly?"

Qin started to play the victim pitifully: "If you are still angry, mother can apologize to you. It was mother who was wrong. Mother has let you down. Mother was talking nonsense..."

"Enough!" Jiang Wantang shouted, interrupting Qin's disgusting words of pretending to be pitiful.

"Put away your hypocritical face. Your tricks are useless to me."

Qin was heartbroken: "Tang'er..."

"How could you speak to your mother like that?"

Jiang Wantang's face turned stern. "I hope the Prime Minister's wife won't call me by my maiden name anymore. It's against the rules."

Seeing that Jiang Wantang was unmoved and had no respect for her at all, Qin was completely indifferent, and her anger grew even stronger.

She had tried to please him so humbly, but this unfilial daughter showed no mercy at all. She almost couldn't help but scold this unfilial daughter.

But she remembered the purpose of her trip and finally gritted her teeth and endured it.

Qin picked up a handkerchief and wiped away the nonexistent tears from the corners of her eyes. Then, she put on an even more pitiful expression and looked at Jiang Wantang and said, "Tang'er, I know you still blame us..."

"If we hadn't let you into the palace, you wouldn't have had this honor."

"Now, you are favored by His Majesty and enjoy unlimited glory. I can understand why you look down on your mother's family."

"But don't forget, the emperor's favor is only temporary. In the end, you still have to rely on your family to support you..."

Jiang Wantang laughed out of anger. She didn't want to tear off Qin's hypocritical fig leaf, but Qin insisted on getting close to her to disgust her.

Then don't blame her for being ruthless.

Jiang Wantang raised her eyebrows sarcastically. Her already flamboyant and bright features, even with her expressionless face, were full of aggression. She said, "Madam Prime Minister, please stop flattering yourself."

"The most foolish person is the one who treats others as fools."

Qin's hand holding the tea paused, and she looked at her in a daze.

Jiang Wantang sneered and said, "Heh..., a guarantee? Do you believe such nonsense?"

"If I am not favored in the palace, I will probably never see you, the noble Prime Minister's wife, in my lifetime."

"Giving birth to a child but not raising him, how dare a vicious woman like you call yourself a mother?"

"The Prime Minister's Mansion doesn't have a bronze mirror, but doesn't it have urine? Before you criticize me, why not take a piss and look at yourself first?"

Qin's face turned pale with anger, but she simply stopped pretending and said shamelessly, "Even if you resent me and hate me, it can't change the fact that I am your biological mother."

"Even if mother has wronged you, He'er is innocent. She is your biological sister who shares the same blood as you."

"He'er has reached the age of marriage, but there is still no suitable marriage partner to propose."

"You can help your brother secure a promising career in the court. I think it won't be difficult for you to persuade His Majesty and ask for an imperial decree granting marriage for your sister."

Jiang Wantang understood instantly that the Qin mother and daughter had a favorite candidate in mind, and this person's power and status were no less than that of the prime minister.

No wonder he chose today to come to the palace to ask her for help. He couldn't wait for His Majesty to issue an imperial decree to grant the marriage in public.

Looking at all the aristocratic families in the capital, there are many families with higher status than the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Jiang Wantang suddenly became curious. Which young man would Qin and Jiang Wanhe choose as their candidate?
