There is Room For the Poor Daughter

The emperor's undisguised favor to the county magistrate of Shengping surprised everyone.

What is even more surprising is that during the Dragon Boat Festival, the emperor who was supposed to accompany the empress dowager and empress for dinner only said a few words to the empress dowager before getting up and leaving.

This is undoubtedly a bit of the face of the queen mother and queen!

Although the queen mother and queen were still smiling, the smile was somewhat far-fetched.

Princess Huijia looked at the head of Shengping County, who kept her head down and said nothing. She had an outrageous illusion. Today, the emperor did not give the queen mother a favor, but she always felt that it had something to do with Shengping County.

But is it possible?

Even if the emperor valued the Yan family and Ye Yang, he didn't need to sacrifice the queen mother's face for the sake of a county magistrate.

Does the emperor's departure have anything to do with Daohua?

Of course there is!

Seeing the rice flowers whose eyes were red as soon as she saw her, the emperor instinctively understood the emotion in her eyes.

She is aggrieved for her biological mother, injustice for her biological mother!

When he thinks of his biological mother who has not even been able to see him for the last time, how can the emperor still have the slightest interest to accompany the empress dowager Xu and Weishe?

The emperor's departure caused the excitement of the banquet to drop several degrees.

In previous years, the most favorite part of the Dragon Boat Festival was watching officials from all over the world present gifts. If the emperor, empress dowager and empress were happy during the period, they might even be rewarded.

Gifts from all over the world are naturally rare and good things. Now, with the departure of the emperor, this link is naturally cancelled.

Everyone ate their meals absentmindedly, and when the banquet was about to end, Eunuch An came again.

"The servants greet the empress dowager and queen, and the ladies."

The queen asked with a smile, "But what did the emperor command?"

Eunuch An replied with a smile: "The emperor summoned the county magistrate of Shengping."

Hearing this, everyone looked at Daohua again.

The empress dowager looked at Daohua with a twinkle in her eyes, and said lightly, "Since it was summoned by the emperor, the county magistrate of Shengping should go with Eunuch An."

Daohua used her eyes to soothe the worried old lady Yan and Mrs. Li, then stood up, blessed the queen mother and the queen, and left the hall with Eunuch An.

Everyone looked at the back of Daohua leaving, with different expressions.

Walking on the corridor in the palace, Daohua had recovered from her sadness towards Granny Gu, and occasionally glanced at Eunuch An beside her.

Eunuch An noticed Daohua's gaze and immediately showed a kind smile.

This is the apprentice of the old man, and he is the one who gives the old lady a filial piety. Even if his background is not so noble, his weight in the emperor's heart is not light.

Thinking that she once told the emperor to go to the fields and cultivate the land, Daohua felt a little apprehensive: "Do you mind Mr. An, Eunuch An, what did the emperor ask me to do?"

Eunuch An said with a smile: "The county owner will know after he goes."

Daohua was speechless in her heart. After she said it, she didn't say anything, and it was not easy to ask others after that. She silently followed Eunuch An to the Qianqing Palace.

After seeing Daohua entering the hall, Eunuch An shook the longevity lock on his neck to cheer himself up, which was quite funny.

Daohua stepped into the main hall and saw the emperor with his hands behind his back in the direction of the gate, silently watching a portrait.

After walking in, Daohua could see clearly that it was the combined portrait that Xiao Yeyang had painted for her mother-in-law, master, and grandmother.

This is the only portrait of my mother-in-law left in the world!

When the emperor heard the movement, he turned around and looked at Daohua.

Daohua's gaze shifted from the portrait to the emperor. Although her face was blank, her mind was running fast.

How should she address the emperor?

This first address is very important. As long as the emperor does not object, she can address her in front of others in the future.

If you call him the emperor directly, it doesn't show close relationship; according to the seniority of the master, it can be called the emperor's brother, but calling her like this is the same as Xiao Yeyang's seniority.

After a quick turn in her head, Daohua knelt down and shouted decisively, "Yi Yi sees the royal uncle!"

She raised her eyebrows when she heard the title of the emperor, but this girl was very good at climbing up the pole, so she followed Ye Yang and called him the emperor's uncle.

When the emperor saw the longevity lock hanging on Daohua's neck, he didn't object: "Why are you crying today?"

Daohua was silent: "I miss my mother-in-law."

Hearing this, the emperor sighed: "Tell me about your mother's life."

Seeing that the emperor asked her to come here for this matter, Daohua immediately relaxed, and told him in detail what happened a few months before Granny Gu's death.

The emperor knew that his mother was thinking about his own safety before he died, so he felt extremely guilty and was silent for a while.

Looking at the only granddaughter-in-law chosen by the mother herself, the emperor summoned Eunuch An and instructed: "Pick out some of the things that girls can use, such as brocades, heads, gems, and pearls that have been paid tribute before, and give them to Yan girl. "

Eunuch An smiled and said, "This old slave will do it immediately."

When Daohua came out of the Qianqing Palace, there were several eunuchs and palace ladies behind them. These eunuch palace ladies were either holding kesi brocades or heads, and even Luo Zidai, who was usually only given to palace concubines, also got a box.

Such a generous reward naturally alarmed other people in the palace. Everyone reacted differently, and they all looked at the Queen Mother vaguely.

Before, the queen mother wanted to punish the county lord of Shengping, but now the emperor has rewarded the county lord of Shengping with great fanfare. This is obviously meant to support the county lord of Shengping.

After the eldest princess found out, the smile on her face was very reluctant. Today, she deliberately humiliated the county lord of Shengping to please the queen mother, but now the father's reaction is beyond her expectations.

Xiao Yeyang received the news early in the morning, and was waiting outside the Qianqing Palace. When he saw Daohua coming out, he hurried up and looked at her face carefully. Seeing that the corners of her eyes were still a little red, her face sank.

Daohua: "I'm fine, I was just said a few words without any pain."

Xiao Yeyang pursed his lips tightly, and wrote down the eldest princess, Ma Concubine and Ma Shi who took the lead in embarrassing Daohua. He could not teach these people a lesson directly, but their family members had better not do anything wrong!

"Come on, I'll take you out of the palace."

Daohua: "My mother and grandmother are still with the queen mother."

Xiao Yeyang looked at the sky: "It's getting late, they should be leaving soon, wait for them at the gate of the palace."

Daohua didn't want to see the face of the queen mother, she nodded, and walked towards the palace gate with Xiao Yeyang.

On the palace wall, Luo Honghao looked at the two people walking side by side, his eyes narrowed slightly.

As soon as he heard that the county owner of Shengping was embarrassed, Xiao Yeyang immediately went to the emperor. He was so anxious that it was impossible to be ruthless to the county owner of Shengping.

In this case, will he still be outsourcing oiran?

Thinking that after the Dong family was arrested and imprisoned, his grandfather and father both sternly told him that his brother's death would end here, and he couldn't help feeling aggrieved.

Dong Yuanyao has not been caught, and the Dong family has not died. How can we stop here?

Daohua and Xiao Yeyang stood at the gate of the palace and waited for a while, when they saw the wives of each family come out one after another.

Everyone's eyes turned around on the two of them, and then fell on the emperor's reward.

"Isn't the emperor's reward too heavy?"

"The emperor is telling everyone that he is very satisfied with the niece-in-law of the county owner of Shengping."
