The queen left silently when she left the table. Although she came quietly when she came, it caused a lot of commotion because the queen appeared with Xu Shu.

The first person to appear with the queen and Xu Shu should be Zhou. Because the Song family is in trouble, the ladies who have been in contact with each other are afraid of Zhou. Not to mention greeting her, they have to avoid her even when they see her from afar. Zhou felt both angry and desolate. When they were sad and silent, they suddenly saw someone coming from the corridor behind. They looked closely and turned out to be the queen. After a closer look, the one who followed the queen was Xu Shu, who had disappeared since she was separated. Zhou suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart. He realized the seat where he sat, and hurriedly moved the cushion back.

There was still some distance from the seat of the emperor, and the queen smiled and said, "Mother, see who did you bring?"

When the Empress Dowager heard the sound, she looked at Xu Shu and it turned out to be Xu Shu, "The ninth girl from the Xu family is here!"

The queen pushed Xu Shu forward, "I met Miss Xu Jiu who was lost on the way back to the palace. Seeing that she was so confused and helpless, she brought her over!"

The Empress Dowager greeted Xu Shu with a smile, "The Ai family thought you were not coming anymore, so they asked Xiao Luzi to ask the little eunuch at the door, but they said that when they saw you enter the palace, the Ai family was puzzled. You are all in the palace, why didn't you come?"

Xu Shu squatted in front of the Empress Dowager and celebrated her birthday and said a little embarrassedly, "My daughter came early and was thinking about the scenery of the Imperial Garden, so she wanted to go and see it first. Unexpectedly, the Imperial Garden was too big and she was lost in it as she walked. Fortunately, she met a kind-hearted palace maid on the road to guide me. But later she was called away by someone when she walked to the door of a palace. Then the minister... I really didn't know how to go, and I couldn't find anyone to ask for directions, so I didn't know where to go... Fortunately, I met the Empress, otherwise..."

Today, the Queen Mother's birthday party was almost everyone in the palace. It was normal that they could not meet people on the road. But was this "good-minded" palace maid really guided the way out of kindness? And what does the owner of the palace who suddenly called the palace maids mean?

Wan Feng suddenly whispered from the side, "It's Qiudiyuan! The palace maid was called away by an aunt in Qiudiyuan!"

"Qiudiyuan?" The Empress Dowager looked at the queen, and the queen hurriedly stepped forward and replied, "There are Meiren Jiang and Meiren Du in Qiudiyuan!"

"I'm so ignorant!" The Empress Dowager snorted lightly, and the Queen immediately lowered her head and said, "I am not good at managing it! I will definitely discipline me strictly in the future!"

"Well~" The Empress Dowager raised her eyelids and glanced at the respectful queen. She turned to look at the crowded guests below and said to Xu Shu, "It's noisy, don't sit down, just..." The Empress Dowager's eyes fell on Wan, "Just sit next to your Aunt Qi!"

As he said that, he summoned Wan again, "The Ai family has handed over the ninth girl from the Xu family to you, so you can take good care of the Ai family!"

Wan did not dare to ignore the orders of the Empress Dowager, not to mention that Deng Yarong had no face to step into the Duke Rong's mansion, Xu Shu was also rewarded. Wan's face showed a loving smile, "I obey the order!"

Wan greeted Xu Shu over, and Xu Shu took out a book from her arms, "This is a gift from the master who asked her daughter to pass it to the Empress Dowager. She wishes the mother and the moon to be bright and the pines and cranes to be prosperous!"

When the Empress Dowager saw the congratulations presented by Xu Shu, she couldn't help but say, "Is this the Lotus Sutra of Wonderful Dharma? Did Miaofan actually give up?"

After only one glance at the Empress Dowager, she could no longer move her eyes. She looked at the scriptures carefully several times before gently putting them aside, "Go back to thank you for your master for Ai's family. She has to stay in seclusion for a long time every year. At this time, the Empress Dowager realized some Buddhist principles and had no place to talk about them!" Although the Empress Dowager said regretfully, it did not detract from her joyful mood. She also said something about the Buddhist scriptures and let Xu Shu and Wan take her seat.

Under the nose of the Empress Dowager, Wan was considerate to Xu Shu. He personally led Xu Shu in, afraid that she would be cold, so he even said that the maid next to him had her spare cloak on her, "It's very windy at night, so it's easy to catch a cold!"

"Thank you aunt!" Xu Shu benefited from the cooperation.

Wan smiled and handed Xu Shu a cup of hot tea, "Drink a cup of hot tea first to warm your body!"

"Okay!" Xu Shu took a sip, "The tea in the palace is better, it's much more mellow than I drink on weekdays!"

Wan Shi couldn't help but look surprised. Although this quilt tongue is a tribute, the Qi family has never lacked this thing. Moreover, whenever she orders the best products she delivers to the Xu family, she often adds a pack of quilt tongue. Why has Xu Shu never drunk it?

After a moment of surprise, Wan understood that although the gifts she gave to Xu Shu, they were all given to the eldest wife of the Xu family, Li. As for whether Li would give these gifts to Xu Shu, it was not certain... This eldest wife is also interesting...

Wan quickly covered up his surprise and pretended that nothing happened to the maid to give Xu Shu the vegetables.

Zhou, who moved out of her position and waited for Xu Shu, waited for a long time but went to Wan. Zhou stared at the seat cushion beside her for a long time, and she really couldn't do anything to move it again. She remembered that she had just mentioned Xu Shu's understatement and looked at the Concubine Wen, and couldn't help but look at Concubine Wen, but Concubine Wen was staring at the main seat on the high platform, but she was not looking at the Empress Dowager, but Concubine Shu beside her.

Today, the Empress Dowager's birthday was so the Empress Dowager occupied the most lord. Although he was the emperor, he was also the Son of Man. The current emperor sat in the seat on the left as his son. The emperor was by his side and returned to the queen who had just entered the hall at the same time as Xu Shu.

Following Concubine Wen's gaze, Zhou saw that Concubine Shu, who should have been sitting behind the emperor and the queen, stood in front of the emperor with orchid fingers, holding a small gin wine glass, slightly bent her knees, raised her eyes, and the infinite charm flowed in the smoke waves, gently opened her red lips, and said a few words. Zhou was too far away and didn't hear it clearly, but the emperor immediately laughed and took the wine glass from Concubine Shu's hand and drank it all. When he took the wine glass, the emperor seemed to have gently pinched Concubine Shu's hand, while Concubine Shu shyly lowered her head.

Zhou couldn't help but frowned. As the emperor, he was so unsanctuary. Looking at Concubine Wen again, Concubine Wen's calm face actually had a look of anger, and she seemed to be angry at the emperor's frivolous behavior.
