Meng Li glanced at the child in the palace man's arms and said to the palace man:
"Give it to me."
After taking the child, Meng Li took a closer look at the child. It had been a while since he was born and he was growing very well.
She looked cute, staring at her with bright and pure eyes, and smiling unconsciously at her, which made Meng Li couldn't help but smile knowingly.
Babies are pure and beautiful.
Seeing Meng Li smiling, Bian Cheng inexplicably felt that his mood actually felt a little better.
But his face was still gloomy.
"You have to know that this is all Liu Cairen's blessing. If you hadn't taken advantage of her sympathy, this child would never have been able to come back to you." He waved his hand and asked the palace people to go down and say Meng Li said.
Meng Li said lightly.
This made him sneer again: "Look, I know you won't be grateful."
Meng Li raised his eyes and looked at him: "How should I be grateful? As a noble concubine, I cannot kowtow to her now."
The reason why Bian Cheng let Liu Meiren come to her palace in an upright and fair manner was because Bian Cheng simply thought that she was trying to gain sympathy in front of Liu Meiren, rather than for any other transaction.
If it was for no reason that she and Liu Meiren had never interacted, and Liu Meiren went to Bian Cheng to speak for her, it would definitely arouse Bian Cheng's suspicion.
Facts have proved that Liu Meiren is indeed the one who can influence the emperor. After she showed off to the emperor for a few days and rejected him several times, the emperor brought the child to him.
Bian Cheng: “…”
"Ungrateful thing," he spat.
Meng Li said calmly: "I think Liu Cairen has both virtues and virtues and should be promoted to a nobleman."
Regardless of whether he said it or not, Bian Cheng should upgrade Liu Cairen, so he might as well just say it casually to avoid Bian Cheng holding on to this matter.
"You are extremely perfunctory. Don't I know how to give her these?" Bian Cheng sneered.
Meng Li said expressionlessly:
"Your Majesty, you have to be merciful and merciful. My concubine lives in a deep palace, so what can you do with her? The only thing you can do is not to prevent you from doting on her."
Bian Cheng: "I hope it's best for you so that you don't become jealous and do something shameful."
"I understand. Your Majesty has many things to do. It's too much of a waste of time to spend time with me. Please come back." Meng Li didn't want to look at him and issued an order to expel him.
"You..." Bian Cheng stared at Meng Li angrily, stretched out his finger to touch Meng Li, and then walked away again.
Went to Liu Meiren's side.
Liu Meiren knew that the emperor had returned the prince to the imperial concubine, and she felt relieved. At least the task was completed.
I just don’t know if the imperial concubine has any other requests. When will this kind of day end
She really wanted to go out, especially now that she could just walk around the imperial garden and meet many concubines. Some of them deliberately made things difficult for her, and they also made all kinds of sarcastic remarks. They all looked at her with jealousy and all bad looks. They all came towards her, which made her feel very bad.
"I'll give you whatever you want." Bian Cheng accepted her, thinking to himself that it's time to treat him better now.
"The emperor is kind to others, and I will naturally feel satisfied. Serving the kind emperor is my blessing." Liu Meiren did not resist this time, but snuggled into Bian Cheng's arms and said warmly.
She is also a smart person and knows that she should give the emperor a taste of something sweet.
~~~~
Bian Cheng tasted the sweetness and felt comfortable all over. He thought about it before he thought about it. Returning the child to the imperial concubine was an unimportant matter. Why didn't he agree at that time
If he had agreed early, there would be no need for Meiren Liu to be angry for so long.
Meng Li was still holding her child. She was in a good mood. Qiaozhu was also very happy:
"The prince has finally returned to his wife."
Meng Li smiled: "Yes."
"By the way, I just went to see the prince and forgot to report to the empress that Concubine Zheng is here." Qiaozhu said again.
Meng Li handed the child to Qiaozhu and said, "Then take the prince and take care of him, and let Concubine Zheng come in."
"Yes..." Qiaozhu took the child away, and Concubine Zheng came in after a while.
"Concubine, congratulations to the noble concubine," she said with a salute as soon as she came in.
Meng Li just said lightly: "You are the first person to come to congratulate me."
"It seems that I have been keeping an eye on what's going on in my palace."
Concubine Zheng: "..."
Why do you have to speak so bluntly
Aren’t many things tacitly understood
Her expression softened and she pretended to be meek: "My dearest concubine, I am also sincere. Your Majesty personally sent the eldest prince back to you, which shows how much he values you."
Meng Li raised his eyebrows, paying attention
Also, the emperor personally brought the prince here.
Who knows what he thinks, maybe he is just mean. The less others care about him, the more he will stick to him.
Could it be that now it is the emperor's turn to come to the concubine to increase his presence
Meng Li's guess was correct. Since the last time he saw her, the emperor would rather die than serve her, and he felt that she had some integrity. After that, he thought of her from time to time, and was still angry in his heart, wanting to let her return to the throne. Serve Him willingly.
"And now that the emperor has been with that vixen all day long, the only place he goes is to your concubine." Concubine Zheng felt very uncomfortable when she said this.
Before the emperor discovered Liu Meiren, she was still favored, but Liu Meiren appeared and took away all the favor from her at once.
Meng Li pursed his lips and smiled:
"Vixen? Concubine Zheng, you have to be careful what you say. If others listen to you, the emperor will not look good on you."
"My empress, why do you still have the heart to laugh? Does it mean that just because the emperor came to sit with you for a while, you feel that the favor is still there?"
"I'm sorry to say it bluntly, the Emperor is so infatuated with that vixen and his whole heart is on her. In the long run, we people will not be good, and his status may even surpass us."
Meng Li looked disapproving: "Can a woman born as a singer surpass us? Are there no rules in the palace?"
But in my heart, I still felt that Concubine Zheng was not good at anything else, but she was quite farsighted. She really took Meiren Liu seriously and knew the threat that Meiren Liu's existence posed to the other concubines.
In the plot, the client's tragedy is also because of her. Although it is because of her, it can only be said that the emperor is too ruthless and has little to do with Liu Meiren.
It's not that Liu Meiren asked the emperor to kill the imperial concubine. Liu Meiren didn't want to be the queen all day long, let alone compete for favor. She didn't have such thoughts in the plot, and she didn't think about it even now, she only wanted to get out.
Wanting to be reunited with the one she loves.
"My Lady, don't be too careless. Don't you think that the Emperor is crazy now? When I came just now, I heard that the Emperor wanted to make her Concubine Liu. Before, she was a talented person. Above talented people, there are noble people. The superior is a concubine, she is better off, she directly jumped over the rank, which is particularly against the rules." When Concubine Zheng mentioned this, her face became distorted and her heart became anxious.
