“Empress Dowager, don’t be angry, take care of the phoenix body.” Empress Dowager Gui quickly stepped forward, comforted her repeatedly, and gently pounded the shoulders for the empress dowager.

“What’s wrong with this kid Mu Ying today.” The empress dowager rubbed her temples and spoke slowly. There is no mother in the world who doesn’t understand children. Just now, Mu Ying was allowed to hide it well, just looking at the expression between his eyebrows before and after breaking the engagement, the empress dowager realized something was wrong. Looking at the pear blossom cake in his bowl later, he ate two bites in total, which was so different from before. After a little speculation, the Queen Mother knew that he was really worried.

For so many years in the palace, from a young showgirl to the position of the queen mother, the queen mother could have easily interpreted these micro-expressions.

“The King of Zheng is old, I have my own thoughts.” Madam Gui echoed with emotion. She was raised by Mu Ying since she was born, and at this time she also had her own motherly feelings.

“I think she seems to have some meaning to this Xue Mayun.” The empress dowager said in a daze.

Madam Gui didn’t say anything, but she was secretly happy for King Zheng. Xue Mayun and her were indeed quite compatible. But judging from the empress dowager’s meaning, she was not optimistic about this marriage, so she didn’t dare to say too much.

“By the way, please send a few people to observe the King of Conquest to see why he is so busy recently and what he is busy with.”

“Yes

.”
“You also know that because of that incident, the Ai family was just jealous of her. This made the relationship between the Ai family and the emperor very bad. Although this person is gone now, the Ai family no longer wants any involvement with her children and her daughter.” The empress dowager said to herself.

When Madam Gui heard the Queen Mother say this, her heart suddenly became a little calmer, and she secretly worried about Xue Mayun. This is really a miserable child.

The two of them were chatting here, when a eunuch suddenly came in and knelt down and reported, “Report to the Empress Dowager, Princess Changle asks for a meeting.”

“It’s Changle coming, so please let her come in.” When the Empress Dowager heard Princess Changle’s arrival, the clouds of sorrow on her face suddenly dispersed and she showed a smile.

After the eunuch left and went to pass it over, a slim woman walked in slowly. She was wearing a gorgeous and luxurious suit and beautiful eyebrows, but there was more willfulness and less agility between her eyebrows.

“Son, please see the queen of mother.” A gentle voice sounded, and Changle worshiped with gentleness and virtuousness.

“Changle, you are here, hurry up, come and sit down.” The Empress Dowager waved her hand repeatedly.

“Yes.” Princess Changle saluted and sat at the table for dinner, but her eyes looked around quietly.

The Queen Mother captured her movements into her eyes at a glance, and she had already understood them seven or eight in her heart.

“Changle, you are looking for your royal brother Mu Ying.”

After being seen through by the empress dowager

, Changle was not ashamed and said generously: “I heard that Brother Muying also came to the palace to visit his mother today, why didn’t he see him? Maybe he hasn’t come yet.”

“I came earlier, because there were some urgent matters in the army, and I just left for a short time.”

“Oh,” Changle responded, but couldn’t hide the disappointment on his face.
