After I was reborn, I became the queen mother by fortune telling

Chapter 225 The Empress Dowager's Attitude Has Changed
As the queen mother left, she was still giving orders.

"Xiao Lan, go and see if the dishes in the imperial dining room are done? Eight cold dishes, four hot dishes, one soup, and even one dish missing."

"Have a hundred pots of chrysanthemums been moved to Mount Tai Palace? Tell them to hurry up!"

"Chunyue, isn't Honghe here yet? Aijia's sleeves are too long, let him shorten them immediately."

Looking at the Empress Dowager's appearance, it seems that she really wants to entertain relatives and friends who came from afar.

And important relatives and friends.

When the queen mother saw Jiang Yu, she was stunned: "Ms. Jiang, why are you here?"

"According to the emperor's will, my concubine will accompany the empress dowager and the emperor to entertain the Ningqiu envoys today." Jiang Yu explained with a salute.

The Empress Dowager's complexion turned cold: "The Ministry of Internal Affairs is simply messing around! Letting a beauty come to such an important banquet and asking the envoys of Ningqiu to meet him, wouldn't it make them laugh!"

She turned her head and asked Chunyue who was on hand: "Chunyue, what about the concubine and the others? Why can't everyone be free?"

"If you go back to the queen mother, the imperial concubine and the concubine Qiong are both ill now, and the two empresses have not been out of the palace for a long time."

"Where's Concubine De? Is she sick too?"

"Recently, Empress Concubine De is copying scriptures in seclusion, and she lives in seclusion," Chunyue replied.

The queen mother looked at Jiang Yu with disgust.

"Since that's the case, that's all. It's just that you don't need to talk or do anything for a while, as long as you sit properly."

"Yes, Empress Dowager." Jiang Yu replied respectfully.

The queen mother led Chunyue away, and asked them to rest first, and wait for the queen mother to inform them to go there together.

When the Queen Mother walked away, Lan Xin stuck out her tongue.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager seems to treat you differently than in the past."

"Don't guess, the empress dowager is still the same." Jiang Yu smiled.

Although she told Lan Xin that, Jiang Yu also clearly felt the change in the Queen Mother's attitude towards her.

Today's queen mother seems to be particularly anxious and irritable, except for this point, because of the turmoil of Han Huili's failed success last time, although she almost died because of it, the queen mother seems to regard herself as the chief culprit for Han Huili's failure.

Maybe after he died, Han Hui became the queen, and the queen mother would feel that she was a good person.

Regarding the change of the Queen Mother, Jiang Yu thought it was normal.

The Empress Dowager in her previous life was a selfish and narrow-minded woman. It would be strange if she was magnanimous.

They had just sat for a while when they saw Hong He hurried in from the outside.

Seeing Jiang Yu, Lan Xin, and Fugui, he was stunned: "Hi, Madam Jiang, is the Empress Dowager here?"

"The empress dowager was still there just now, she didn't know what she was doing, and she walked away again."

"Just now someone reported that the slave came to change the clothes of the Empress Dowager, saying that it was here, but I didn't expect to miss it." Hong He wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Jiang Yu looked at Lan Xin, her face was cold, she turned her head away without saying a word.

Jiang Yu was a little strange, she knew that Lan Xin had always had a good impression of Hong He, and every time she saw him, she couldn't hide her joy and smile, why was she so cold this time.

"Lan Xin, why don't you go out with Hong He to find out where the Empress Dowager is?" Jiang Yu said to Lan Xin, she also wanted Lan Xin and Hong He to have a chance to stay longer.

"Your Majesty, I don't think it's necessary for the maidservant. The prince is a celebrity in front of the Empress Dowager, so there is no need for a servant girl to accompany her. Naturally, it is more appropriate for the maidservant next to the Empress Dowager to accompany her to look for it." Lan Xin stubbornly refused. Jiang Yu's proposal.

Jiang Yu looked at Hong He who was hesitating to speak, and then said to Lan Xin: "You and Hong He may not see each other for a long time, it's time to chat."

"I have nothing to talk to him about." Lan Xin said angrily, and simply turned her back.

Jiang Yu was a little baffled by her attitude, but Hong He couldn't hold back anymore, and he walked over: "Lan Xin, if you quarrel with me, just tell me directly, don't involve your mother in it. Your mother is a big deal Good intentions, you can't treat her with this attitude."

Lan Xin's eyes turned red: "Why are you spitting blood? How did I treat my mother? Don't you know what you did?"

"What did I do?" Hong He asked her back, "Lan Xin, if I have done something to be sorry for you, you can now say that if I can change it, I will change it, and if I can't, I will explain it clearly to you."

"You..." Lan Xin stomped her feet and ran out suddenly.

Jiang Yu was worried that something might happen to her, so she hurriedly ordered Fugui to follow her to have a look.

For a moment, only Jiang Yu and Hong He were left in the room.

Jiang Yu looked at Honghe, sighed and said, "Honghe, don't you have anything to explain to me? Lan Xin won't treat you like this for no reason, right?"

Hong He saluted Jiang Yu solemnly.

"If it were someone else, the slave would not say it. These are the words that the slave holds in his heart, but the empress is different from the slave. The slave will not lie to the empress."

"Lan Xin... The servant knows that she treats the servant differently from others."

"In the beginning, the servant was also very happy. Every time I saw Lan Xin, the servant felt happy in his heart. But—"

Hong He said "but", and stopped talking.

Jiang Yu waited for a long time, but when she saw that he had nothing to say, she asked, "But what?"

Hong He woke up like a dream: "But—but the slave is just a eunuch."

After saying this, Hong He let out a long breath, as if he had revealed a secret that had been hidden in his heart all along.

Jiang Yu was stunned.

Yes, what Hong He said was right.

Honghe didn't say what happened later, but she knew it too.

He didn't want to delay Lan Xin, and wanted her to leave the palace to marry when she was old enough to live a normal life.

If he stayed with him, not only would he have to stay in the palace for the rest of his life, but Honghe would never be able to give Lan Xin a home.

"So recently, the servant has been cold to Lan Xin, avoiding her, or not talking much when meeting her. The servant sees that Lan Xin is sad, and the servant feels even sadder, but for the sake of Lan Xin, the servant has to do this. Now You can also cut through the mess quickly, if it takes a long time, I'm afraid Lan Xin will feel even more uncomfortable."

Looking at his calm face with infinite sadness, Jiang Yu didn't know how to comfort him.

He was right, but Lan Xin was also right.

"It's not fair for you to treat Lan Xin like this. I have no other intentions. I just hope that you can tell Lan Xin again what you said to me today. After that, you can continue with your decision, but you can't lie to her."

Hong He paused and said one word: "Yes."

Chunyue suddenly came in from the outside, and as soon as she saw Honghe, she scolded him: "Why are you staying here! The empress dowager is waiting impatiently!"

Honghe smiled, bid farewell to Jiang Yu, and followed Chunyue to find the Queen Mother.

When going out, it happened that Fugui and Lan Xin came back, Lan Xin saw Hong He and Chun Yue going out together, her eyes were red again.
