Chapter 231
The Empress Dowager glanced at Mu Zheng faintly, and a kindly smile rose from the corner of her mouth.

"It's still a daughter's caring! Ai family has no blessings, and there is no well-behaved daughter who has been raised by her since childhood. Fourth girl, Ai family thinks that you are very good! How about..."

"Queen, you are tired today, Miss Si is also ill, why don't you rest earlier. How about letting Miss Si accompany you to gossip with you some other day?"

Before the Empress Dowager could speak, she was interrupted by Mu Zheng.

Fortunately, Mu Zheng reacted quickly enough to guess what the Queen Mother wanted to say next in an instant.

The queen mother is afraid that if she continues to talk, she will take Lin Youyi as a foster daughter!

Therefore, no matter what, Mu Zheng couldn't let the Queen Mother ask the question out.

Once the queen mother said this, then Lin Youyi didn't agree, and it didn't matter if she didn't agree!
If she agreed, it would be tantamount to breaking the relationship with Mu Zheng completely!
But if she doesn't agree, she really doesn't know how to flatter her!

How could the Empress Dowager not know about Mu Zheng's careful thinking, just now, she just wanted to scare Mu Zheng, she didn't really want to accept Lin Youyi as a foster daughter.

"Okay, come here, take the fourth girl down, so I can take care of you. Doctor Rong, the fourth lady's body, the Ai family will leave it to you, you must do your best!"

"Yes, I obey the order and dare not neglect."

"The courtiers will leave first."

Just as Lin Youyi left the main hall, Mu Zheng couldn't sit still.

After finding a reason, he was ready to leave.

However, as soon as he stood up, he asked the queen mother to say a word and pressed it back!

"sit down!"

"Yes, what's your mother's advice?"

"Ai's family is old, what admonitions can they give? If they are old, they are useless! Some people dare to do sneaky things under the eyes of Ai's family!"

"The queen mother is serious! I just don't want you to worry about it! I can handle small things properly, and I don't dare to bother the queen!"

"Well, is it related to the four girls of the Hou Mansion?"

Mu Zheng was slightly taken aback, and without further explanation, he only replied lightly.

"Ah."

"This girl is really a troublemaker! Let her stay with Aijia for a few more days, so Aijia can train her!"

When Mu Zheng heard what the queen mother said, he was immediately stunned!
It wasn't until the old nanny beside the queen mother reminded Mu Zheng with a smile that he was relieved.

"This Fourth Miss of the Hou Mansion is really lucky! The Empress Dowager is very picky. I remember that a few years ago, when Princess Gong wanted to send the little princess to the palace, the Empress Dowager had to teach her a few words. The Empress Dowager Didn't let it go."

Mu Zheng had heard about this matter.

He indicated that he naturally knew that it was such a rare thing for the Queen Mother to have such a change!

"Yes, it is indeed that girl's blessing to be taught by the empress mother. It's just... Mrs. Hou is pregnant now, and the month is getting older. The fourth lady is pure and filial, and she has to serve her every day. My son is worried. , Miss Fourth misses Mrs. Hou, and I am afraid that she will not be able to listen to your mother's teachings carefully."

"This... is Aijia's negligence! Then let her take care of her body at Aijia's place, so as not to affect Mrs. Hou's pregnancy when she goes back."

"The son-in-law thanked the queen mother on her behalf."

"You represent her? It's too early to say! I want to thank you and let her do it herself!"

"Yes, Erchen understands."

The Empress Dowager watched Mu Zheng leave the main hall, and let out a shallow breath.

"Nurse Jing, what happened today?"

"Specifically, this old slave is not very clear. Our lord's thunderous tactics quickly closed the matter! The old slave only knows that the young general and the eldest lady of the Hou's mansion left the palace in the prince's sedan chair. At the same time , His Royal Highness was also escorted back to the East Palace by the prince's people."

After Madam Jing finished speaking, she took another step forward, picked up the teacup, and handed it to the Empress Dowager with both hands.

"Empress Dowager, this old slave thinks what the lord said makes sense! Don't you know our lord's methods? You can rest assured that the lord will handle the matter properly! Think about it, last time, the lord did not Burning with anger, in the end, didn't you take the overall situation into consideration and calm down?"

Nanny Jing said so much, in fact, she just wanted to say something nice for Lin Youyi.

"If Aijia didn't think that girl was sensible, how could she stay in Changning Palace!"

"Yes, the empress dowager is kind and charitable, and the fourth young lady also knows the rules."

After Mu Zheng left the main hall, he went to the Qixiang Hall behind to see Lin Youyi, and conveyed the Empress Dowager's thoughts to her.

At that time, Lin Youyi was turning her back to a little maid, asking her to help apply ointment on her shoulders and neck.

Hearing Mu Zheng's arrival, Lin Youyi hurriedly put on her clothes, got up and went out to greet her.

"The prince and the empress dowager finished talking?"

"Little girl, if you want to get news from me, you are too young!"

"Hey... my lord, you are really thinking too much! But... your guess is really accurate! Then... you don't want me to ask tentatively, but just tell me when you have made up your mind?"

"You girl! This king does have something to tell you. Just now, the queen mother told this king that she wants to keep you in the palace for a longer time!"

"Huh? What?"

Lin Youyi was so frightened that she stood up suddenly, staring at Mu Zheng with big panicked eyes.

"Why, you are not willing to let you stay in Changning Palace to listen to your mother's teachings?"

"It's not reluctance, it's just... I'm afraid that with my temperament, when I offended the empress dowager, I'm afraid I don't know yet!"

"How could it be? Aren't you very clever today? Well-founded and well-founded answers! The queen mother is very satisfied with your answer!"

"This... my lord, I'm sick now! I won't stay in Changning Palace! If I get sick and give it to the empress dowager, then I really have nothing to redeem!"

When Mu Zheng heard Lin Youyi say that she was sick, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Little girl, you are very smart to see you! What's the matter now, you can't even find an excuse! Could it be that I still use this king to teach you?"

"Hmm! Please enlighten me, my lord!"

Lin Youyi nodded her head, and all of a sudden, she leaned over to Mu Zheng.

Mu Zheng was amused from ear to ear by Lin Youyi's swift action.

It took a while to calm down and speak slowly.

"Isn't Mrs. Hou pregnant? You..."

"Oh, I see! My lord, you are so smart! It seems that you have been fooling the queen mother a lot, right? Otherwise, how could you react so quickly?"

"Presumptuous! This king is not a thief like you, who spends his days thinking about how to fool people!"

Mu Zheng couldn't help smiling, raised his hand and poked Lin Youyi's forehead gently.
