Chapter 956: After the widow was raped, she was favored by the harem 32

"My lady, please walk slowly. Be careful of the slippery ground."

Ying Xixi supported the empress dowager and led her into the palace.

When Ying Xixi raised her eyes, she met Xiao Xieyun, who looked nervous. She smiled at him soothingly.

"Your Majesty, I have brought the Queen Mother here."

Xiao Xieyun's gaze fell on the empress dowager beside Ying Xixi.

He looked a little dazed. Clearly, they both lived in the imperial palace, but now that he thought about it carefully, he had never seen his mother again since she was shocked by that scene.

It has been more than ten years now.

My mother...is not young anymore.

While Xiao Xieyun was looking at the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother was also looking at him.

Ying Xixi nervously watched the Queen Mother's expression from the side, intending to immediately control and comfort her if she showed the slightest sign of being irritated.

The Queen Mother looked at Xiao Xieyun for a while, and in the tense atmosphere, she asked Ying Xixi.

"Xixi, is this His Majesty now?"

Ying Xixi was stunned for a moment, "Yes, Madam, this is His Majesty."

The Queen Mother nodded, and a smile appeared in her phoenix eyes that were exactly the same as Xiao Xieyun's.

"Your Majesty has grown so big."

The Queen Mother's words left Xiao Xieyun and Ying Xixi stunned.

They didn't know what the Queen Mother's role was at this moment.

It is also uncertain whether the Queen Mother knows that the Majesty she is referring to is Xiao Xieyun, her biological son.

Xiao Xieyun sat there not daring to say anything, and looked at Ying Xixi to ask what was going on.

Ying Xixi didn't know what was going on, and she didn't dare to ask the empress dowager rashly, so she could only change the subject.

"My queen, let's sit down first. We can have the New Year's Eve dinner later."

Ying Xixi spoke briskly, helping the empress dowager to sit down.

Xiao Xieyun sat in the main seat, and Ying Xixi sat with the Queen Mother below him on his right.

The three of them were speechless for a moment, but fortunately, the palace maids soon came in with dishes.

Ying Xixi noticed that the Queen Mother's eyes lit up when she saw some of the dishes on the table.

She asked softly, "Madam, are there any dishes you like?"

The Queen Mother nodded with bright eyes, like a carefree little girl.

"Yes! This, this and that... they are all my favorites!

What a coincidence, the royal chef actually knows my favorite dishes! "

Upon hearing this, Ying Xixi looked at Xiao Xieyun, who was standing beside her with his eyes downcast, wondering what he was thinking.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty specially asked the imperial chef to prepare your favorite dishes for you."

Ying Xixi explained with a smile.

The Queen Mother blinked in surprise, "So that's how it is! Your Majesty actually remembered my favorite dishes. I am really flattered! Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xiao Xieyun's lowered eyelids trembled, and he didn't dare to look up to meet his mother's gaze.

"You are welcome."

He said these four words dryly without looking up.

During the New Year's Eve dinner, Xiao Xieyun ate in silence, while Ying Xixi and the Queen Mother ate and chatted for a while, and the atmosphere was good.

No one follows the rule of not talking while eating.

After dinner, Ying Xixi saw that the Queen Mother was in good condition and tried to invite her.

"My queen, do you want to go see the fireworks? There will be fireworks outside the palace, and we can go shopping!"

The Queen Mother looked out the window, hesitated for a moment and shook her head, "I won't go, you young people should go out and have some fun.

I have to rest after my walk."

"Okay, then I'll bring some food back for you!

"Does your Majesty like to eat candied haws? They are sour and sweet and delicious!"

Ying Xixi smiled, her voice light and gentle.

The Queen Mother nodded with bright eyes, "I like it! Then I'll be looking forward to eating the candied haws tomorrow."

After Ying Xixi and Xiao Xieyun watched the empress dowager leave under the escort of the palace maids, nannies and guards, they planned to change their clothes and leave the palace.
