Wang Yihui bit her lips as she watched Zhou Shizhi toast to the queen in a graceful manner, feeling very uncomfortable.
She couldn't help but secretly think, if, if the marriage negotiation between the two families is successful, then at this moment she is not accompanying the princess and serving carefully, but wearing the princess's dress and following with her waist upright under the envious eyes of everyone By Zhou Shizhi's side!
Unfortunately, such a day will never be possible!
The woman next to Zhou Shizhi can never be her!
However, a cold light suddenly appeared in Wang Yihui's eyes, and his eyes became extremely cold: Even if the person beside him couldn't be her, he definitely couldn't be Lu Xiaoshu!
If it wasn't for that woman, she would have already married him, and she ruined her life's happiness! It made her fall to where she is today.
Is the side concubine of the Eastern Palace amazing? She has never been rare! What's more, as long as her sister is around, she will always be just a side concubine.
After Zhou Shizhi finished his toast, he retreated with the prince and the others. Seeing his back fading away in the lights, Wang Yihui took a deep breath, leaned over and said something to the princess.
The princess was startled for a moment, then a faint smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and she nodded.
"Mother," the concubine stood up, holding the wine glass in her hand, and said to the queen with a smile: "Speaking of which, the king of the mountain is a great hero. He has not been engaged yet, so why don't the queen give him a favor? The king of the mountain will definitely be grateful to the queen." !"
The crown prince's words stirred up a thousand layers of waves, and all the ladies immediately erupted, and immediately echoed, with only one meaning: "What the crown princess said is very true!" Then, intentionally or not, they said that their own The benefits of girls.
All the girls present couldn't help but squeezed the silk handkerchief tightly in their hands, their hearts were beating wildly with nervousness.
If the queen wants to propose a marriage, she will naturally choose from the people present, because almost all the girls in the capital who can be called a match with the backer king are here.
The queen saw everyone's reactions in her eyes, nodded with a smile and said: "What the princess said is right, if the backer king doesn't get married again, it will be the fault of the emperor and this palace! It is indeed necessary to find a marriage for him !"
But the queen secretly wondered: When did the princess become so generous
You must know that she was the one who led the marriage between King of the Mountain and her natal family back then, now that she mentions this again, won't she feel uncomfortable or awkward
She has always been a very face-saving person!
She shouldn't be the one who mentioned this.
The queen was puzzled in her heart, but her mouth was not slow at all, and she had already answered with a smile.
After hearing this, the wives couldn't bear the joy and excitement in their hearts, and they almost recommended their girls to the queen directly.
The queen didn't speak again, she just looked at the crowd with a smile, thinking secretly in her mind: no matter what the purpose of the crown princess said, this is a good thing! It's time for the backer king to marry a princess, and this princess must belong to her! In the future, I might as well be an arm for the third child...
The queen's eyes flashed, and she already had an idea in her heart.
As soon as the queen thought about it, the crown prince and side concubine Wang exchanged glances calmly, both of them were secretly happy. Especially Concubine Wang, if she can't get it, Lu Xiaoshu can't even think about it!
The two of them waited for the queen to speak and to settle the matter firmly, so no one can change it!
The Crown Princess couldn't help smiling and said to the Queen: "Mother, today is a festive season, why not settle this matter, it is also a good story!"
"What the crown princess said is also reasonable. Since this matter is brought up today, if you give up halfway, you will be too sorry for the king of the mountain!" The queen nodded with a smile.
The princess was very happy, she glanced at the ladies and said with a smile: "Today's festive event, almost all the famous ladies in the capital who are waiting to be married are here. Princess is not a trivial matter!"
"This is a big deal, why is it such a trivial matter! Looking at it from the looks of this palace, everyone is really good!" The queen laughed again.
All the wives and girls were heartbroken and full of energy: Is the empress letting everyone compete freely? So there is a chance!
Seeing a big fortune in front of them, and there is no male guest present, all the ladies don't care about being reserved—it is the Queen's will to praise their own girls, it is also for the Queen's mother to have a good life Choice is not it? I have to be reserved, right
As a result, all the wives chattered more and more lively, boasting that their daughters were like heaven and earth.
Wang Fangfei listened to these words, but the sourness in her heart became more and more intense, she also secretly despised and sneered: just these ordinary people, the daughters they teach are not much better, which one is worthy of being the king of the mountain
The only one who deserves to be the king of the mountain is himself. It's a pity, but he was ruined by that little bitch Lu Xiaoshu!
She was really getting angrier the more she thought about it.
Concubine Wang's eyes subconsciously scanned the crowd, but she didn't find Lu Xiaoshu, and then remembered that she didn't come tonight.
Concubine Wang could not help but secretly rejoice: Fortunately, she did not come! Otherwise, the queen loves her so much, she might point her out to the backer king!
It was God's will that she didn't come!
Lu Xiaoshu was not present, but Princess Qinglan was there, and Princess Qinglan was the clearest about what happened between Zhou Shizhi and Lu Xiaoshu.
According to what the queen meant, she wanted to choose one of the famous ladies present to point to the backer king as the princess, how could this be possible!
What should Xiao Shu do
Princess Qinglan couldn't help worrying secretly, she thought to herself, Empress, you must not do bad things with good intentions! The backer king will not like any girl present, even if he looks like a fairy, he will not like it! Alas, Xiaoshu is also true, how can he get sick when he is doing well? If she was here tonight, wouldn't it be so troublesome
Liao Yuanyuan, who was sitting next to Princess Qinglan, saw her biting her lip, frowning, and wringing the handkerchief in her hand, looking extremely impatient, she couldn't help being startled, then suddenly realized in her heart, and sighed secretly again.
She thought that Princess Qinglan liked to rely on the King of the Mountain, and she was anxious when she heard what the Queen said.
"Princess, please be safe and don't be impatient." Liao Yuanyuan gently shook Princess Qinglan's hand. She wanted to comfort her, but found that there was no way to comfort her.
The one who wants to marry is the queen, even if Princess Qinglan wants to get to this point, so what can she do
"Actually, you can let your royal father decide this matter as soon as possible. At this time, alas!" Liao Yuanyuan sighed helplessly, expressing that there was nothing she could do to help.
"What?" Princess Qinglan was a little confused by Liao Yuanyuan's words, and asked in confusion, "What did you say?"
Liao Yuanyuan couldn't bear her to be sad anymore, so she shook her head and said in a low voice, "I said... you want to open up a bit." She was really worried that Princess Qinglan would do something in a hurry to make people lose their dignity make fun of. You must know that the mouths of these ladies in the capital are not forgiving.
Even if they didn't dare to do anything in front of Princess Qinglan, it would be hard to say anything behind her back, they could say anything ugly!
Princess Qinglan didn't understand what she meant at all, and responded casually: "Why don't you want to, I'm almost dying of anxiety, the backer king can't marry these women! He belongs to Xiaoshu!"
"What!" Her words startled Liao Yuanyuan, she couldn't help but blurted out, her eyes widened in surprise.
Liao Yuanyuan's voice was a little high, causing several people nearby to glance at her, and even the concubine Wang and the princess above noticed.
Princess Qinglan regained her composure slightly after being called out by her, and after gathering her composure, she whispered to her: "You don't know, do you? That guy Xiaoshu is too mean, so I never told you! She I have been a couple with the backer king for a long time, but I don’t know why they haven’t crossed the Ming Road, and the two of them haven’t gotten married…”
"No!" Princess Qinglan saw that the wives were talking more and more lively, and the queen nodded frequently, as if she seemed to agree immediately, she turned her heart and said: "Xiaoshu is not here, I have to say this for her, King of the Mountain The queen should only give it to her!"
Princess Qinglan wanted to stand up and tell the Queen about Lu Xiaoshu and the backer king after speaking.
"No!" Liao Yuanyuan was taken aback, and hurriedly pulled her back.
Princess Qinglan was a little unhappy, frowned and said, "Why are you stopping me? I can't just sit and watch Xiaoshu suffer!"
Liao Yuanyuan herself is also a person with concerns, so naturally she will not look down on Zhou Shizhi and Lu Xiaoshu because of this, and even feel a little sympathy for no reason.
But, really not—
"Princess, have you ever thought about it, what would you say if the queen asked you why you must point Xiao Shu to the king of the mountain?" Liao Yuanyuan lowered her voice and said, "Could it be that you want to say that they are in love? If you say that Not only did it not help her, but it hurt her!"
Princess Qinglan opened her eyes wide, and looked at Liao Yuanyuan with an expression of disbelief: She really doesn't believe it! Wasn't she fighting for Lu Xiaoshu? How could it have hurt her
Liao Yuanyuan knew that she really didn't understand, she sighed secretly in her heart, and said: "If you say that they are in love with each other, it will damage Xiao Shu's reputation as a boudoir, if this matter is confirmed, not only will the queen not help them, but instead You have to be punished to stop the people talking, do you understand?"
"Why?" Princess Qinglan was stunned, but still didn't understand why this happened
Liao Yuanyuan had no choice but to say: "Because this is, this is—oh, in short, it's not okay! If the empress allows them, once this wind blows, it will violate the three obediences and four virtues of women. How do you ask the empress to explain to the world?"
Princess Qinglan seemed to understand, she nodded and said: "I understand, in short, it's just that this thing can't be done, right?"
"Yes, I just can't do it!" Liao Yuanyuan nodded again and again, secretly relieved in her heart: I finally explained her clearly!
Princess Qinglan's eyes fluctuated, she bit her lip, but finally said: "I understand!"
