"The empress is overwhelmed!" Mu Qing replied softly, the smile on her face couldn't hold back.
Fortunately, the empress smiled and said, "She deserves it, I don't have any awards!" and stopped entangled in this matter, but in this way, Lu Xiaoshu can be regarded as a name tag in front of the empress, if he wants to betroth someone else in the future , it is necessary to obtain the consent of the queen first, and it is not possible to "betroth at will".
All the wives are envious of Mu Qing. In the future, the marriage of the second girl Lu will be decided by the empress. What a great honor this is. No matter which family she marries, who would dare to bully her
Mu Qing also understood what the queen meant, and a stone fell from her heart.
Lu Xiaoshu heaved a sigh of relief when he thought about Zhou Shizhi's current status.
Only the princess concubine bit her lip and stared at Lu Xiaoshu fiercely as if she was facing a formidable enemy, wishing to tear the plum blossom poem she wrote just now into pieces.
The banquet continued for a while, but after a while the queen got tired, and the banquet came to an end.
After the end, everyone left the palace one after another. Many people looked at Mu Qing and Lu Xiaoshu differently, and they all came over to say hello before leaving.
Liao Yuanyuan also came over and smiled softly to Lu Xiaoshu, "Congratulations!"
Lu Xiaoshu reluctantly smiled and thanked, this is really nothing to congratulate!
"Xiao Shu, you are really good! Mother didn't know how powerful you are before! Oh, today mother is really happy for you!" Miao Cuilan smiled from ear to ear, took her hand and praised non-stop.
Mu Qing also became happy in her heart, and the two of them talked more and more vigorously with Miao Cuilan.
Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly saw Lu Yiqing walking over, saluted Mu Qing and said with a smile, "Auntie, long time no see, my niece greets Auntie!"
As soon as she came, the good atmosphere disappeared immediately, Lu Xiaoshu cursed in a low voice, "The ghost lingers", and Mu Qing was also a little surprised.
"Hehe, you have a heart." After all, Mu Qing was not a mean person, she was startled, and reluctantly nodded to Lu Yiqing with a smile.
What Lu Yiqing was most afraid of was that she would ignore her like Lu Xiaoshu. As long as she responded to her words, she would be relieved and hurriedly said with a smile: "Qing'er has always been thinking about my aunt! Are Auntie and Uncle okay? It’s cold now, Auntie should keep warm on weekdays, don’t catch a cold!”
Lu Xiaoshu really couldn't understand her hypocritical appearance, so she couldn't help but smiled and said: "Madam Li can use this kind of thought in Li's house, such trivial matters are handled by girls and women." Remember, don’t bother Mrs. Li to worry about it! Besides, even if Mrs. Li wants to worry about it, she should also worry about the delirious person in the Buddhist hall, not my mother! My mother can’t bear it!”
Miao Cuilan and Xiaoxue couldn't help but wonder, and they couldn't help showing surprised expressions on their faces: What's wrong with Xiaoshu? People have good intentions anyway, why do they abuse people's hearts in such a face-to-face manner
Miao Cuilan couldn't help thinking: I'll have to talk about this girl later, she's only been in the capital for a few days, and she's got the temper of this tricky young lady! You still have to be kind!
Being robbed by Lu Xiaoshu again, Lu Yiqing felt a little angry, and her face was a little embarrassing.
In front of Miao Cuilan and Xiaoxue, two outsiders, she felt even more embarrassed. Seeing that their demeanor did not have the arrogance shown by those noble ladies in the capital, she believed that their family background was average, and the man in the family must have an official position. He couldn't go anywhere, so he stole a furious glance at the two of them.
Seeing this, Lu Xiaoshu was furious, and he held Miao Cuilan's arm and sneered at Lu Yiqing, "Mrs. Li, I haven't introduced you yet, have I? This is my adoptive mother, the first wife of Lu Xiang's descendants. This is my mother." My sister! Two mothers and sisters, let’s go! Some people here have such virtues that they make people sick!"
As he spoke, he couldn't help but drag Miao Cuilan and Mu Qing away.
Lu Yiqing was taken aback, and couldn't help feeling very regretful.
Seeing Lu Xiaoshu and others go away, she stomped her feet angrily, gritted her teeth and said, "Go, go to the Eastern Palace to pay a visit to the Crown Princess!"
"Listening to that girl, is it—your family went out?" Miao Cuilan couldn't help asking Mu Qing. She was also a little annoyed in her heart: I have provoked someone, and those eyes look like they want to eat people!
Mu Qing sighed and smiled bitterly, and Lu Xiaoshu said: "Mother, I'll tell you later when I get out of the palace carriage, I'm afraid I won't be able to finish talking in a day! That woman is not a good thing!"
"I can see it! It's really not a good thing!" Miao Cuilan nodded in agreement.
Lu Xiaoshu couldn't help giggling, feeling the joy of having a common language in his heart.
In the carriage, she briefly talked about Lu Yiqing's actions, and before she said much, Miao Cuilan was furious, "There are really such shameless, despicable and insidious women in this world! How dare you hurt me, Xiao Shu! Thanks to me earlier I still think you are a little too rude to her! If you do this, it would be too light to see her beat up once!"
"No, I think so too!" Lu Xiaoshu snorted.
"Fortunately, this evil spirit has already been married. When I see her later, I will take a detour as far away as possible. If she dares to do anything wrong again, don't be polite to her!" Miao Cuilan said again.
"That's natural!" Lu Xiaoshu nodded.
Mu Qing was a little dumbfounded, she suddenly understood where her daughter's temper came from...
In the Kunning Palace, the queen took off her make-up and changed her clothes, reclined lazily on the couch of the concubine in the Nuan Pavilion, took a sip of hot tea, and handed it to Aunt Qing beside her.
Aunt Qing picked it up in a hurry, and carefully placed it on the tall plum blossom table beside her.
"Today can be regarded as a wish fulfilled! The second girl of the Lu family, I really look good!" The queen laughed, with a very satisfied expression.
Aunt Qing smiled and said: "After today's incident, everyone knows that the marriage between the second girl of the Lu family will be married by you in the future, so that no one who has nothing to do with you will worry about it! Your wife is really a good plan, ha ha, then The old slave was worried that Miss Lu would not use a plum blossom poem! I never thought she would use it!"
She suddenly lowered her voice again, leaned closer to the empress and said with a small smile: "In the future, if the third prince knows the painstaking efforts of the empress, he will definitely be grateful."
The queen sighed softly, and said softly: "I am sincerely doing my best for him, not wanting his gratitude. It is rare that he likes a girl so much, so I will naturally fulfill him! In the final analysis, I owe him a lot. Too much!"
"Your Majesty, why did you say that!" Aunt Qing hurriedly said: "My Majesty, you have no other choice, and you also have your own difficulties. The Third Prince will definitely understand you!"
"That's the case! But this palace has treated him badly!" The queen's expression suddenly became extremely lonely, and she sighed.
She has endured it for many years, but now that she is getting older and watching him grow up day by day, that tolerance is almost unbearable.
"Your Majesty, don't think so! In this world, who can do everything smoothly and smoothly? Your Majesty is also for the future! The days to come will still be long. If your Majesty really feels that you have treated His Highness badly, there will be plenty of days ahead." Come to make up for it!" Aunt Qing hastily persuaded again.
"What you said is true, but Ben Gong is confused, what are you talking about here!" The queen suddenly laughed again.
Aunt Qing blurted out with a smile: "Empress, if you care about it, you will be chaotic!"
The queen sighed slightly, and said faintly: "It's been so many years, and it's almost time to end everything! Ben Gong—I don't want to wait any longer!"
The reason she hesitated before was because of her health. Now that her body has fully recovered, what else is there to care about
Aunt Qing immediately knelt down, bowed her head to the queen and said: "Then this old servant will congratulate your empress in advance, and wish you all the best!"
The queen was very satisfied with her attitude, smiled and raised her hand and said: "Get up now! I still have to rely on you to do a lot of work! The further you get here, the more cautious you are, and I will give you a hundred and two Very energetic, you know?"
"Your Majesty, don't worry, this old slave understands!" Aunt Qing laughed.
The fact that Lu Xiaoshu was favored by the queen quickly spread, and Lin Fang couldn't help being very annoyed when he heard about it.
Now, even if he wanted to propose marriage to her, it was impossible!
The fourth prince was also very annoyed, and brought Lin Fang in to complain.
If it weren't for her indecision, things wouldn't be like this!
The girl that the empress likes and wants to marry, but no matter what, it is impossible to point to the son of a country gentry who has no official position!
Lin Fang still didn't give up, and said to the fourth prince: "I really like Xiaoshu! I'll go to Lu's mansion to propose a marriage in person. Uncle and aunt Lu will see my sincerity, maybe—"
"You'd better stop humiliating yourself!" The fourth prince didn't care about the seriousness of what he said at this time, he couldn't stand it, and said coldly: "Do you think that the Marquis of Changping can still be the master of her marriage now? Could it be that you think you are qualified to ask the queen to marry you!"
He also said sarcastically: "Now that the empress has made such a statement, you can't wait to come to the door. Why, this time, aren't you afraid that people will say that you are following others?"
Lin Fang was speechless, ignoring the sarcasm in the words of the fourth prince, and still said: "What if Xiao Shu is willing? As long as she is willing, since the queen likes her so much, she may not be unwilling to fulfill her..."
"You are really naive!" The fourth prince looked at Lin Fang as if looking at a monster, and said with a disdainful sneer: "The second girl of the Lu family has never been seen by the king, no matter how good she is, she is not so good that the empress looks at her so differently! When you were the queen, did you have nothing to do to play this game yesterday, or did it happen unintentionally! She has other plans, so how could she fulfill you?"
Lin Fang was stunned, "Another plan? What is this plan? Impossible..."
"Don't believe me," the fourth prince said calmly, "This king knows her much better than you! As for the plan, it would be great if this king knew! It's so strange, what does she mean by doing this..."
The fourth prince also became puzzled, she is the empress, if she wants to marry Lu Xiaoshu, it is only a matter of one sentence, forgive me then the Lu family would not dare to resist the order!
But she just didn't do that!
But if it is said that she has no intention of referring to marriage, her meaning is so clear that everyone can tell it at a glance.
What kind of medicine is in the queen's gourd!
Since I can't figure it out, and I don't want to have a way to find out, it's better to throw stones to ask the way——
