"Gui mama." Xiao Shushen reached out and stuck a hairpin onto her head, a look of impatience appeared in her eyes. Liu Xiugrong suddenly becoming favoured had to be related to the Ninth Prince, which was undoubtedly a threat to her. Moreover, the Ninth Prince was not as simple as it seemed, if he really got the upper hand, then she, the Empress, would naturally not be able to remain calm.
Gui mama came in from outside with a vase in her hands. She was just about to take the vase to the warehouse when she heard Xiao Shushen's summons. All the surrounding palace maids ran off to somewhere at this time, carrying the vase in their hands.
"Aiyo, is there something important for the empress to summon this old servant?" His face was filled with flattery, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were all gathered together. However, he seemed to feel that it was not enough and continued to pile up.
"Go to Prime Minister Liu and beat him up. Right now, the emperor has the final say in the imperial court. If he doesn't know what's going on …" The expression on Xiao Shushen's face became more and more terrifying, like a man-eating flower, with its fangs bared, and its sinister mouth exposed.
"Here." After Gui mama left, Xiao Shushen's expression returned to normal, seeing the copper mirror reflecting her original appearance, the hairpin on her head became crooked, she gently raised her hand to balance it, and the golden phoenix arrogantly raised its head, revealing its own brilliance, even with its wings, it was still a level higher than the others.
After Gui mama entered the palace, he boarded a horse carriage. The Empress had just given him silver, but he was now generous enough to give the coachman one tael of silver.
In these few days, the Ninth Prince would occasionally send subordinates over. Although as guards, they could not participate in master's matters, they still had to serve him well.
The guard had just returned from the restroom when he saw a horse carriage leisurely walking over. His head was covered in a layer of cool air as he hurriedly mustered up all his energy.
"Hey, may I ask who this noble person is? This little one will go and report to the others. " The servant asked in a low voice.
The servant was surprised to see a young man wearing palace clothing. He had previously been fortunate enough to accompany the servant in a trip to the palace, and in this outfit, it was obvious that he was a mama.
Just say that the Gui mama is here to visit you. The servants of the Prime Minister's Residence were like ants in her eyes. If not for the Empress' decree, she would not have bothered to see them.
was surprised to see him so flustered. If the people from Ninth Prince came, it would not be like this, so it must be someone else?
The servant stammered and stammered, only after a while did he say that the Gui mama was here.
Prime Minister Liu turned pale with fright when he heard it. Others might not know about Gui mama, but those were people under the Empress's command.
With his expression, it was impossible for Lady Liu to not be surprised. After all, he was still a high official in the imperial court and was highly respected by the Emperor. Furthermore, his daughter was favored by the palace and had been pampered to six palaces. Naturally, he had seen a lot of things, so why was he so unsettled about it now?
As a result, as soon as Prime Minister Liu left, Madam Liu followed closely behind. She was also very curious as to who the person was. When he arrived at the front hall, he found that there was only one woman, and she looked like she was from the palace.
"Husband, who is this person?" He slowly walked to Prime Minister Liu's side and asked in a low voice, scaring Prime Minister Liu to the point where he quivered again.
He had just been frightened by the empress, and now his wife was coming as well. Even though he was dissatisfied, he still replied, "This, is someone from the empress's side. Gui mama can be considered an old man in the palace. It's just that you don't go to the palace very often, so it's natural that you don't know them. "
When the Gui mama heard the Prime Minister Liu's introduction, his expression did not change at all, and he gave a humble bow to Lady Liu. Although she was the empress's person, she was still just a servant.
"I was wondering who it was. So it was someone by the empress's side." It's also because I can't see clearly, and I should have recognized Grandma's temperament a long time ago. " After hearing that, Madam Liu's smile blossomed, and she pulled Gui mama to sit down.
"Madam truly is this old servant, how could I dare to be entertained like this." However, Gui mama walked to the side with an ungrateful attitude.
Seeing Gui mama's actions, Prime Minister Liu's face immediately darkened. Although he was afraid of the Queen, he wasn't afraid of being humiliated by a servant.
Madam Liu's expression did not change much as she looked at Gui mama unkindly. At the end of the day, wasn't it because of the empress of the palace that he was being so courteous to her? Otherwise, why would he give her so much face? However, she still hoped that her daughter, Liu Chugrong, could be the Queen.
However, this was a special time, so Prime Minister Liu could only flatter Madam Liu and make faces at his.
"Please have a seat. Come, serve the guests some tea." Since she was one of the empress's men, she did not dare to be negligent at all. She immediately ordered some people to serve tea, but she was somewhat unwilling.
"Lord Liu, Lady Liu doesn't need to be so courteous. Esteemed Empress sent me over today, but I've recently heard rumors that Lord Liu and Ninth Prince have been rather close. Although Your Majesty and Esteemed Empress still believe you two very much, but …" After saying that, the Gui mama paused for a moment, before taking a sip of tea.
"Empress was also afraid that Lord Liu would lose his mind for a moment, and did not know what was correct. If Lord Liu accidentally chose the wrong path, then it would not be good, after all the emperor treats Lord Liu well, and the emperor's daughter is also his concubine. Lord Liu is a smart person, so he knows what should be done and shouldn't do."
Prime Minister Liu also nodded. At this point, his head was dripping with cold sweat.
"The moment this person goes wrong, there will be no way back. At that time, not only will the Lord Liu be in danger, I'm afraid that even the entire Prime Minister's Mansion will suffer a great calamity!" Seeing that Prime Minister Liu had not dared to retort, Gui mama was even more impatient, and his gaze became even more arrogant.
The Prime Minister Liu sat in the high position, listening to the people's side attacks, and understood that the Queen was beating him up. It was likely that the Queen had noticed something, so she specially sent people to investigate his attitude.
"Yes, yes, yes, the empress's suggestion was right. I hope the empress can be at ease as well. This old subject is loyal to the emperor and definitely won't do anything that would harm his majesty."
Prime Minister Liu nodded his head repeatedly, submissively and obediently. It was as if he could make people feel his sincerity.
