Rushuang hurriedly approached Yun Dai and said with a gaze: "Look at my inn, my daily business is not very good... I have been much worse in the past two days. If there is no special dish, I will not be able to support myself."

Yun Dai smiled and said, "I can teach you for free."

"real?"

"But you have to answer a few questions from me," said Yundai.

Leng Rushuang hurriedly said, "You just mention it. As long as I know, I will know everything."

Yun Dai glanced at Zhao Shu first.

Zhao Shu said: "Do I need to avoid it?"

"No," Leng Rushuang waved her hand, "I haven't done anything illegal, so I still need to avoid others? Please ask."

Yun Dai hesitated for a while.

She didn't want outsiders to know about this, but Zhao Shu was not an outsider either. Besides, he was a cold and indifferent man, and he wouldn't talk about it even if he knew about it.

Thinking of this, Yun Dai no longer hesitated. He took out a small piece of paper from his purse, unfolded it, and handed it to Leng Rushuang: "Miss Rushuang takes a look, can you know the woman in this painting?"

Leng Rushuang ate a bite of hot vegetables and was drinking. When she heard this, she tilted her head and glanced at her.

After scanning this, her movements stopped.

"This..." She quickly put down the wine glass, reached out to take it, looked carefully for a while, and asked Yun Dai in surprise, "Empress, why do you have this portrait?"

Zhao Shu next to him had already seen the woman in the portrait.

The painter is good at painting and expresses the charming and gracefulness of the woman in the painting to the fullest.

But what he noticed was not that the woman looked beautiful, but that she looked a little similar to Yun Dai.

Yun Dai was already feeling a little relieved when she saw Leng Rushuang's performance.

"If I didn't guess, the woman in this painting would be Miss Rushuang's master, the famous Master Qingxi?" Yun Dai asked.

Leng Rushuang was very surprised: "How did the Empress know? Yes, this is indeed my master, but she looks younger than her master."

Yun Dai smiled and said, "This is a portrait of her when she was young, so it is naturally different from when you met her."

Leng Rushuang was still surprised: "Empress, what's going on? How could you have a portrait of my master?"

"Don't Miss Rushuang know your master's name?"

"Master's name is Qingxi."

"It seems that you don't even know her real name." Yun Dai took back the portrait, looked at the woman in the painting, and whispered, "Her boudoir name is Mingmin, which is the pearl in the palm of the Zhongyong Hou Mansion."

Leng Rushuang was stunned.

Zhao Shu also showed a little surprised, and his eyes turned between Hua and Yun Dai.

No wonder it looks similar...

Leng Rushuang thought for a long time before she remembered that Zhongyong Hou Mansion... wasn't it the Empress's grandfather's family?

Could it be...

Yun Dai said, "You are not wrong at all. Mingmin is my mother."

Leng Rushuang slowly opened her mouth and stammered, "What, why is this happening? My master is the Empress's mother?"

"I have never seen her before, but this painting was taken back from the Northern Qi Palace. It was confirmed by the grandfather and uncle of the Marquis's mansion that it was indeed my mother."

"But, but..."

Leng Rushuang's mind was a little confused, "I remember that the Queen's mother passed away a long time ago."

Yun Dai said: "Yes, we all think she passed away because of a difficult childbirth for me. No one has doubted this for so many years."

"So, she is not dead?"
