Chapter 806: Sitting around the table thinking about family and friends
And at this time in Fengyi Palace.
Queen Luan Xiying was smiling happily as she chatted about family matters with Old Madam Xue of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion, the two Madam Fus, and her beloved daughter-in-law... uh... her future daughter-in-law!
The palace maids in the palace had already been sent out by the Queen Mother.
At this time, there were only the three people from the Anguo Mansion, the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, who were all dressed in casual clothes, Leng Rongyue, and the Queen, the master of Fengyi Palace!
Several people sat around the table affectionately, and the hall was filled with the aroma of tea and fruit.
When Old Madam Xue, her two daughters-in-law, and Leng Rongyue came to the palace to meet the Empress, they naturally had to wear formal attire.
Leng Rongyue, the newly crowned princess, also put on her princess attire for the first time.
Leng Rongyue is young and has not yet reached the age of marriage, but her stunningly beautiful face can still match the elegant and luxurious attire of a princess!
She didn't have a high and complicated bun on her head, but still wore a girl's bun. She only wore a small and exquisite phoenix crown. She looked light and playful besides being noble, and she looked full of spirit!
The smile on Queen Luan Xiying's face has never faded since she saw Leng Rongyue come in.
He personally helped Madam Xue, the old noble, to her seat;
He also personally helped the first wife Huo Chanyu and the second wife Zheng Suyao up.
Then, he personally pulled up Leng Rongyue who was bowing.
Queen Luan Xiying pulled Leng Rongyue up and never let go of Leng Rongyue's little hand again. She even pulled Leng Rongyue to sit on her own throne.
Leng Rongyue declined, but Queen Luan Xiying didn't care. She pulled Leng Rongyue to sit next to her and held her in her arms.
This future daughter-in-law is such a sight that she is hard to stop looking at. The more she looks at her, the more she loves her. It makes Queen Luan Xiying's heart blossom!
As Leng Rongyue entered the palace, the women in blue and blue also brought in the gifts they brought - four large boxes, and handed them to Shu Xiu, the head maid in the palace.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Empress Luan Xiying looked at Madam Xue, First Madam Huo Chanyu, and Second Madam Zheng Suyao, who were sitting there, and then at Leng Rongyue who was beside her...
Several people came into the palace, all wearing complicated and heavy imperial robes. Although they showed their noble status, it was not easy to wear!
So, she smiled and said, "I have a suggestion. Old Madam, the two ladies, and Yue'er, why don't you all take off your formal attire and have a casual chat about family matters?"
The Queen Mother's suggestion was exactly what Leng Rongyue wanted.
Upon hearing this, Madam Xue hurriedly stood up and said with a smile, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your consideration!
"Just as the Queen says!"
Several people stood up and followed the chief palace maid Shu Xiu to the side hall. They were served by several palace servants. They took off their formal attire and the complicated headdresses on their heads.
As a result, I suddenly felt much more relaxed, as if a heavy burden weighing more than ten pounds on my back had been lifted off my back.
They smiled at each other, turned around and returned to the main hall, and saluted Queen Luan Xiying.
Madam Xue smiled and said, "Thank you, Queen, for your kindness!
I, your wife, really feel much more relaxed now!"
Queen Luan Xiying also smiled, "That's right, this is how we can feel relaxed and comfortable, like we're a family!
Let's just chat casually about everyday things, no need to be so formal, it's too tiring!"
When the Queen said this, everyone, including Old Madam Xue, laughed.
Queen Luan Xiying sent all the palace servants out of the palace and ordered the palace door to be closed.
If someone else had come to the palace, Luan Xiying would not have made such arrangements.
This is only because the people who came today are the women of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion, and his precious daughter-in-law.
Also, when those large boxes were brought in and placed there, Queen Luan Xiying smelled a sweet fruity fragrance...
This must be some new and fresh fruit that my beloved daughter-in-law has brought me!
I don't want too many people to know or see it.
The palace door was closed, and the Queen Mother no longer sat on the main seat. Instead, she invited Old Madam Xue, First Madam Huo Chanyu, Second Madam Zheng Suyao, and Leng Rongyue to sit around a round table.
The Empress reached out her hand and shook hands with Old Madam Xue's. "Auntie, how have you been lately?"
Madam Xue gently patted the Empress's hand and said, "Thank you for asking, Empress. I'm fine!"
Queen Luan Xiying nodded slightly and looked at Old Madam Xue. Both of their eyes couldn't help but become moist.
Queen Luan Xiying couldn't help but think that when she was young and still in the boudoir, she and Fu Baozhen were the closest friends, and she almost lowered the threshold of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion by three inches!
Now, her best friend is long gone, and her daughter has become her future daughter-in-law.
This... is also the continuation of their affection and fate!
Leng Rongyue looked at the tears in the eyes of the Empress, her grandmother, and her two aunts, knowing that they were all missing Fu Baozhen.
As the only junior here, I should be the one to coax and persuade them.
Seeing that there is no palace servant in this hall, and I am the only junior, then I will take on the obligation of serving the elders!
Leng Rongyue stood up, walked to the table beside her, and took out the gift she brought.
