In the Qianqing Palace, Gu Chang’an and Huipin stayed in the house after dinner.
Because Gu Changan was weak and could not go out, the master and servant sat in the room and chatted to pass the time, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
When the Empress Dowager came over, he saw them cutting something, interrupting Xiao Xun’s voice that he wanted to inform him, walked in, and said lightly, “What are you having fun?”
As soon as he heard the voice, several people hurriedly turned around and saw that it was the Empress Dowager, they all hurriedly saluted and said, “I have met the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager is lucky and Jin’an.”
They were all confused about the sudden arrival of the Empress Dowager, because in their perception, at this moment, the Empress Dowager should accompany the Emperor and the others to the family banquet.
Seeing that his sudden arrival scared them, the Empress Dowager said, “Everyone is free, you don’t have to be nervous. The atmosphere in this palace is not good at the Lu family banquet, and it is uncomfortable to stay, so I came to see Chang’an. Sure enough, it’s still comfortable to stay here in Chang’an.”
Gu Chang’an walked to her side, held her arm, and said intimately, “Chang’an thought his grandmother came to raise an army to ask for punishment, and blamed Chang’an for not having a good rest and not taking good care of her body to see her grandmother.”
Gu Chang’an was still very happy about the Empress Dowager’s arrival, and immediately helped her to the soft couch beside her.
The Empress Dowager knew that Gu Chang’an was in poor health, so she pulled her over and sat beside her, reached out and handed it to Huipin, and said, “You come and sit next to me, without restraint, just like Chang’an.”
She was quite satisfied with Huipin. Apart from being timid, she was very satisfied with everything else, but timid things can be changed and will get better slowly.
Huipin felt a little flattered. She didn’t expect the Empress Dowager to be so kind to her, but she still reached out to hold her hand and sat obediently beside her.
The Empress Dowager looked at Gu Chang’an and said, “I am naturally angry, that is, I am here to blame you. You are not here for this family banquet, I have not even had dinner, and I am still hungry now. What should I do?”
In a word, she missed the food made by Gu Chang’an.
Gu Changan fell ill intermittently and had been almost two months. In the past two months, she had never eaten the food made by Gu Changan himself, and she really missed her.
Hearing her words, Gu Changan was a little amused and said, “I thought my grandmother came over to be pitiful to Changan, but I didn’t expect that she was here to exploit Changan.”
The Empress Dowager looked at Gu Changan with a smile and said, “Pity? Why do I want to pity you? Besides, do you seem to need pity? How many people are asking for it to be able to stay by the emperor every day?What is unforgettable, do you have the nerve to say that you need to be pitiful? “
Well, Gu Changan admitted that the Empress Dowager spoke too sharply and even said everything in her heart, making her unable to refute it.
At this time, Madam Zhao also came forward and said, “My little master, you don’t know. The Empress Dowager just said that. She has been talking about you many times these days. She is worried that you will not be able to eat enough and wear warm clothes, but I feel sorry for you. “
The Empress Dowager just glared at Madam Zhao who betrayed her, but said nothing.
