The Prince Regent Is Powerful, And My Mommy Is Expecting Again! - Chapter 422

422 The Two of Them Are a Perfect Match

“Yes.” Nanny Bi Zhu turned to look at Gu Qingxue and said, “Since this is the empress dowager’s decree, Miss Gu only needs to follow it. In the future, no matter who you see, you can be excused.”

“Many thanks to the empress dowager.” Gu Qingxue curtsied and thanked her.

The empress dowager looked at Gu Qingxue and nodded in satisfaction. “I called you over this time just to chat with you. Someone came and give me a seat for Xue’er to sit beside me. Tell the imperial kitchen that I will be having Xue’er stay for dinner today. Tell them to prepare some delicious food and not be careless.”

“Yes. May I ask the empress dowager how we should deal with the prince regent? ” Nanny Bi Zhu reminded the empress dowager, who did not even look at the prince regent.

!!
The empress dowager then came back to her senses and looked at Rong Zhan. “Zhan’er, you’re still here?”

After Gong Lingyu heard this, she laughed out loud.

She did not expect her cousin to have such a day.

In the past, her grandmother’s favorite person was her cousin, but who would have thought that once Sister Gu came over, her grandmother even forgot about his existence. Just a single sentence was enough to hurt him/

Rong Zhan stared at the empress dowager expressionlessly and said slowly, “Empress Dowager, I’ve been here since just now.”

“Oh, it was my negligence. How about this, since you’ve already sent Xue’er here, you can go back.” The empress dowager waved her hand and asked Rong Zhan to leave.

Rong Zhan raised his eyebrows in surprise. “Empress Dowager, I haven’t been back for a long time. I want to have lunch with you at Fengkang Palace this afternoon.”

If it was in the past, after the empress dowager heard Rong Zhan’s words, she would definitely be so happy that she could not close her mouth. Without saying anything, she would immediately nod her head and agree to Rong Zhan’s request.

Today, the empress dowager looked disinterested and waved at Rong. “We can’t talk about women’s affairs with you here. You’d better go back to your residence.”

This was the first time Rong Zhan was rejected by the empress dowager.

When Nanny Bi Zhu heard this, she also lowered her head and tried to hold back her laughter.

Usually, it was the prince regent who refused to eat in the palace, but today, the wind and water had turned. It was the prince regent’s turn to be refused by the empress dowager.

Gong Lingyu witnessed all of this from the side and had a hard time holding in her laughter.

This was the first time she had seen her cousin being humiliated by the empress dowager. As expected, sister Gu was invincible. No matter who it was, they could not escape her charm.

After the empress dowager rejected Rong Zhan, she turned to look at Gu Qingxue and put on a smile. “Xue’er, how old are you this year? How’s your grandmother? I haven’t seen her in a long time, and I miss her very much.”

Gu Qingxue could tell that the worry in the empress dowager’s eyes was not a lie. It came from the bottom of her heart. She had never been able to reject someone who was truly good to her, so she patiently explained, “Empress dowager, don’t worry. My grandmother is fine. I’m twenty-three years old this year.”

“Twenty-three is good. Hmm, not bad!” The empress dowager was very happy.

Gu Qingxue was 23 years old, and Rong Zhan was slightly older than her. The two of them were a perfect match!

As the empress dowager thought about this, she saw Rong Zhan from the corner of her eye and asked, “Zhan’er, why haven’t you left? It’s getting late, let’s hurry back.”

The empress dowager’s order to leave was almost on Rong Zhan’s face. Rong Zhan had no choice but to cup his hands. “This official will take his leave.”
