"Get up." The empress dowager walked forward and held her arm, slowly helping her up.
"Thank you." Silver Frost opened his mouth in astonishment.
"Raise your head for this widow to see.”The empress dowager let go of her arm and said to her, who still had her head lowered.
"Yes." Although she was puzzled, she still raised her head.
The Empress Dowager was very kind, just like her mother. This was her first impression of him when she observed him up close.
"She is indeed a beauty." The empress dowager praised. The woman in front of her did not deliberately dress up. She was simply wearing a red plum blossom patterned long robe with a large bow tied around her waist. Her hair was casually tied up with a hairpin. This was just a very ordinary dress, but compared to the consorts in the palace who were fighting for favor, she was like a pure lotus that had emerged from the mud.
"Thank you for your praise, Mother." She gently nodded and returned a sweet smile.
"You haven't had breakfast yet?" The Empress Dowager held her hand and patted the back of her hand.
"Not yet." Silver Frost's soft eyes blinked and opened again. Her lively eyes shone with a happy light.
For a moment just now, her mother's appearance overlapped with the Empress Dowager's, and she started to miss her mother a little.
"Let's eat together." After the empress dowager finished speaking, she pulled her to the side hall.
"…" She didn't know how to reject the Empress Dowager, so she let her lead her.
In the side hall, the two of them sat down next to each other at the round table.
"It's been a long time since I had breakfast with someone.”The Empress Dowager sighed.
"In the future, I will come to accompany Mother every day. As long as Mother doesn't find me annoying, it's fine.”She couldn't bear to see her sad face, so she blurted out words of concern.
"How can that be? I'm so happy to have you accompany me.”The empress dowager said as she picked up the chopsticks on the table.
"Actually, I just entered the palace and don't know anything. If I do anything wrong in the future, please teach me.”she said politely but generously.
"Shuang 'er is such an intelligent person. I don't think I need to say anything more.”The Empress Dowager's expression of praise was obvious on her face.
"..." She lowered her head in embarrassment at such a direct compliment.
Shuang 'er, hurry up and eat." the empress dowager urged.
"This…is too much." She looked at the small mountain of food in her bowl and widened her eyes in surprise.
"I won't." The empress dowager held back her laughter and said seriously.
"…" She picked up her chopsticks helplessly and was about to eat.
" Haha…" The empress dowager laughed loudly.
"What made Imperial Mother laugh?" A deep male voice sounded.
Silver Frost looked at the man walking towards her and was stunned.
"Xiang 'er, what brings you here today?”The empress dowager stood up from her chair in joy.
"It's early after court, so I specially came to Imperial Mother's place to accompany you.”Ling Xiang walked to the empress dowager's side and helped her sit down. Then, he walked over to Yin Shuang and sat down.
"The Empress is here too." Ling Xiang had seen her from the moment he entered the door. Although his eyes were looking at the Empress Dowager, he kept sneaking glances at her from the corner of his eyes.
Her outfit today made his eyes light up. He almost couldn't recognize that this was his wife, whom he had only met once. In this palace, who didn't deliberately dress up to please him? Was she the only exception? These questions kept asking him in his mind.
"Yes." She nodded stiffly at him.
"Xiang 'er, let's eat together." The empress dowager felt that the atmosphere was a little cold, so she broke the silence.
"Alright." He picked up the chopsticks that the maidservant had placed and picked up the breakfast to eat.
The Empress Dowager also began to eat silently. Only she did not move her chopsticks.
She hadn't even sorted out her thoughts to face him. Why did he appear in front of her? Before he appeared, she had always thought that she was a patient person, but he could mess up her clear water.
"I'm a little uncomfortable, so I'll leave first.”She stood up hurriedly.
"..." The empress dowager didn't expect her to say that and was momentarily speechless.
She quickly turned around and left.
"It's not too late to leave after eating." Ling Xiang easily grabbed her wrist before she could take a step forward.
"..." She tilted her head to look at him. She did not expect him to do such a thing.
"Yes, we'll leave after eating." The Empress Dowager echoed.
"Sit down." He did not understand why he had reached out to grab her, but the only thing he was sure of was that he did not regret asking her to stay.
Her hands were very slender and small. He wondered if she was eating seriously. There was a delicate fragrance on her body, and he couldn't help but get closer to her.
"…" She hesitated and didn't sit down for a long time.
"Eat." Ling Xiang frowned impatiently and tugged at her wrist. Seeing that she was sitting on the chair safely, he smiled in satisfaction and picked up the breakfast to put it in her bowl.
"You!" Yin Shuang struggled to shake off his hand, but no matter how hard she tried, he would not let go of her, but he did not hurt her.
