The main hall of Qin Mansion.
Miss Qin was wearing a snow-white dress and was sitting alone on a chair in front of the window, reading a book quietly.
The midday sun shone through the window and fell on her.
That absolutely beautiful face and that spotless white figure were as beautiful as a dream in the sunlight.
Nangong Huoyue entered the hall surrounded by the crowd.
The first thing he saw was her.
At this moment, the air seemed to suddenly stagnate.
Miss Qin still had her head down, reading quietly, as if she was in another world.
The room suddenly became quiet.
Miss Qin Er hurried over and reminded in a low voice: "Sister, His Majesty is here."
Miss Qin seemed not to hear.
Nangong Huoyue paused where she was, then walked over and looked at the flawless face in front of her again.
Although she tried her best to suppress it, jealousy and anger still rose up in her heart unconsciously.
However, when she thought of the baby in her belly and the other person's current situation, she immediately felt relieved.
"What book is Miss Qin reading?"
She took the initiative to speak, without any offended or dissatisfied expression on her face.
The tone was also very calm.
Qin Jianjia then raised her head and glanced at her with a cold expression: "The Law of Etiquette."
Nangong Huoyue was slightly startled and looked at the book in her hand.
Then she smiled calmly and said, "Ms. Qin never goes out, why are you looking at this?"
Qin Jianjia lowered her head, her eyes fell on the book in her hand again, she gently turned a page, and said calmly: "Knowing etiquette."
"Knowing etiquette?"
Nangong Huoyue's eyes flashed, and then he looked at her meaningfully and said, "It's true that you should take a look. Some etiquette is useful at home even if you don't go out."
Then, she continued, "For example, between parents, between sisters, between husband and wife, and even... between sister and brother-in-law, and between elder sister-in-law and younger sister-in-law, all of these must be polite."
Miss Qin quietly turned the pages of the book and said nothing more.
Nangong Huoyue was about to say a few more words, but suddenly noticed the gloomy look in her eyes. She was silent for a moment and said, "Has Miss Qin always been alone?"
At this moment, a clear voice suddenly came from the door: "Of course not! My young lady also has the lovely Xiao Bailing and Chanchan!"
Nangong Huoyue didn't say anything else.
At this time, Song Ruyue and her maid came in with dishes, smiling, "Wei Mo, please ask His Majesty and Master Chu to sit down. The food is ready."
Then she looked toward the window in surprise and said, "Hey, Jianjia is out too."
Bai Ling poked her head out of the door and said, "Madam, little Bai Ling is standing right here, don't you see it?"
Song Ruyue went into the house, put down the food in her hand, came out, glanced at her, and said, "I see, I see."
After saying that, he hurried to the kitchen.
Soon, the table was filled with sumptuous dishes.
Bright color and fragrant aroma.
Nangong Huoyue didn't say anything polite and sat directly in the main seat, then pulled Luo Qingzhou to sit next to her.
After everyone was seated, Song Ruyue picked up the teacup and said with a smile on her face: "Wei Mo, Jian Jia, come, let's toast to His Majesty and Master Chu. His Majesty is pregnant, this is a great joyous event for our Great Yan!"
Miss Qin picked up the teacup and looked to the side.
Nangong Huoyue also looked at Miss Qin.
"Jianjia?"
Song Ruyue quickly reminded again.
At this time, Miss Qin slowly picked up the tea on the table.
Song Ruyue smiled and said, "Come, Your Majesty, let us toast you a glass. We wish Your Majesty a son soon, and we also wish Your Majesty and Master Chu a happy and long life together."
After saying that, he drank it all in one gulp.
The teacups were filled with tea, while Nangong Huoyue's teacup was filled with water.
Song Ruyue didn't dare to give anything to drink to Her Majesty the Queen.
"Thank you very much."
Nangong Huoyue smiled slightly, raised her head slightly, and drank the water in the cup.
Song Ruyue quickly stood up, personally added water for her, and picked up the clean bowl next to her to serve the two of them some food. She said attentively, "Your Majesty, Master Chu, eat the food, eat the food."
Nangong Huoyue picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of meat, and handed it to the mouth of someone next to him.
Luo Qingzhou was stunned for a moment, and whispered: "Your Majesty, I will eat by myself."
Nangong Huoyue narrowed her eyes and said, "Open your mouth."
Luo Qingzhou didn't dare to refuse anymore, so he lowered his head, opened his mouth, and ate it.
Song Ruyue said with a smile on her face: "Your Majesty really dotes on Master Chu."
Nangong Huoyue smiled calmly and said, "Husband and wife should naturally love each other. In front of him, I am just a wife, not an emperor."
Song Ruyue immediately praised again: "Mr. Chu is so lucky to have met such a good woman like His Majesty."
Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and ate the food without saying a word.
Song Ruyue kept talking, livening up the atmosphere.
Miss Qin Er would occasionally speak a few words.
Miss Qin remained silent.
When lunch is almost over.
Nangong Huoyue put down the clapper, looked at Song Ruyue, and said, "Madam Qin, I came here today because I have one more thing I want to discuss with you."
Upon hearing this, Song Ruyue immediately sat up straight and said, "Your Majesty, please give your orders. There is nothing to discuss. As long as..."
"Mother."
Miss Qin Er, who was standing by, suddenly interrupted her softly, with a gentle smile on her face, and said, "Let your majesty speak first."
Song Ruyue opened her mouth but said nothing more.
Nangong Huoyue glanced at Miss Qin Er, smiled calmly, and said directly without beating around the bush: "It's like this, I'm pregnant now, and I'm busy with other things, so I can't serve Feiyang. So, I want to find another woman for him to serve him. Feiyang has made great contributions to my Great Yan, and it can be said that he directly saved my entire Great Yan. According to the laws of Great Yan, Feiyang can marry more wives and concubines. Although I am the emperor, I don't want to be a stingy person. So I came here today to discuss with you, Madam Qin..."
After she said this, everyone at the table looked at her in confusion.
Song Ruyue was stunned for a moment, and said: "Your Majesty, this kind of thing... you can decide it yourself, why do you have to..."
Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something and asked quickly, "Your Majesty, have you taken a fancy to any of the girls in my Qin Mansion?"
At this moment, a little head suddenly popped out of the door, and said anxiously, "Madam, no! We can't agree to her! Xiao Bailing is a member of the Qin Mansion in life and a ghost of the Qin Mansion in death. She wants to stay with the young lady for the rest of her life, and she doesn't want to marry off and serve others!"
There was a sudden silence in the room.
Song Ruyue immediately waved her hand and drove him away, "Go away, go pick flowers in the yard, don't come and make trouble."
"oh… "
The head at the door disappeared immediately.
Song Ruyue looked at the Queen across from her again, and suddenly felt a little uneasy. She said, "Your Majesty means..."
Nangong Huoyue smiled faintly and said, "Every time I come to the Qin Mansion, I always go to the backyard. Madam Qin, don't you understand?"
Song Ruyue's heart was suddenly shocked.
Luo Qingzhou hurriedly stepped on the Queen under the table. When he was about to speak, Nangong Huoyue suddenly turned his head and looked at him and said, "Fei Yang, why are you stepping on me? I'm just saying this, why are you in such a hurry? No matter how anxious you are, at least ask Madam Qin and Miss Qin for their opinions, right?"
After she finished speaking, she glanced at Miss Qin sitting opposite her and said, "Madam Qin, Jianjia is so beautiful and has reached the age where she should get married. Feiyang is one of the best practitioners in Da Yan. With his contributions to the country, it is not too much to make him a king. I have been discussing this with the court officials these days. Once he is made a king, he will have a formal status and title. It will not be a disgrace to your Qin family if Jianjia marries him then. What do you think?"
Song Ruyue had a dazed expression on her face.
After a long while, she said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, this... this..."
Nangong Huoyue raised her eyebrows and said, "Why, Madam Qin doesn't want to? Or is she reluctant to let go?"
Song Ruyue said quickly: "No, of course not. It's just... it's just..."
She lowered her head, not daring to look at her daughter, and said in fear: "Jianjia, she was married before... Mr. Chu is such an important figure, and he is also the husband of your Majesty. Our Qin family really... really dare not...'
Nangong Huoyue smiled and said, "As long as Madam Qin and Miss Qin agree, no one dares to say anything. As for Feiyang, he certainly won't dislike it. Didn't Madam Qin notice? Ever since Miss Qin appeared, my husband has been like a lost soul, peeking at her from time to time. Miss Qin's beauty is so beautiful that even I am moved, let alone him. He guarantees that he is willing to do this."
Luo Qingzhou immediately said: "Your Majesty, I didn't..."
“Shut up!”
Nangong Huoyue glanced at him and said, "I'm talking to Madam Qin, don't interrupt."
Luo Qingzhou looked at her eyes, then glanced at Miss Qin opposite him, and said nothing more.
Nangong Huoyue looked at Miss Qin Er who was standing beside her and said with a smile, "Wei Mo, what do you think?"
Miss Qin lowered her head slightly, with no other emotions visible on her face, and said softly: "This matter needs to be decided by sister herself."
Nangong Huoyue looked at Miss Qin.
At this time, Song Ruyue suddenly said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me, we cannot agree to this matter."
Nangong Huoyue looked at her and asked, "Why?"
Song Ruyue lowered her head, her expression changing. After a moment of silence, she raised her head and said, "Actually...Jianjia already has someone she likes."
"oh?"
After she said this, everyone at the table looked at her with different expressions.
Song Ruyue's face flushed, and she seemed a little ashamed. She lowered her head slightly, hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to say, "Your Majesty, Jianjia is cold and quiet, and rarely leaves home. We are reluctant to let her leave. Therefore, our family means that she cannot marry out. If she must marry, then she should marry... someone in our family."
There was a sudden silence at the table.
Luo Qingzhou stared at her in a daze.
Nangong Huoyue was stunned for a moment, with a light flashing in her eyes, and said: "The family members that Madam Qin is referring to are..."
Song Ruyue raised her head. Although she still had a somewhat ashamed expression on her face, her eyes and tone were extremely firm: "My son-in-law, Qingzhou."
