The wife of the Xiao family is the adopted daughter of the Li family and also the sister of the present empress.
The Queen's purpose for bringing her here is very simple, to consolidate the crown prince's position for Bailiji.
The Xiao family's status in the imperial court is no worse than that of others, not to mention getting closer and closer, there is no more suitable candidate than Xiao Chuyi.
Even though he had made good mental preparations before coming here, Shen Mubai, who ate a stone before the official meeting, secretly gritted his teeth, wishing to bring this brat over and beat him up.
Bailiji really didn't have the slightest impression, even after being reminded by the queen, she didn't have a vague outline.
Immediately pulled his lips and smiled, "That's it."
He casually sat aside, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it down, "I don't know why the mother asked the son to come here?"
The queen frowned and reprimanded, "As a prince, how decent is he to sit like this?"
"The queen mother taught me the lesson." Bailiji said casually, his eyes fell on the girl, and he sat upright, "Always be careful when outsiders are present."
The queen's face changed slightly, "This is your younger sister Chu Yi, Yi'er will be staying in the palace for a while, as an elder brother, you have to take care of her."
Bailiji sneered.
At this moment, a guard outside the door begged to see him, but after entering the hall, he faltered and didn't dare to look at the prince.
"Has it been found out yet?" As the lord of the harem, the Queen's majesty is naturally incomparable to that of other concubines.
Cold sweat dripped from the forehead of the guard, with the queen on one side and the prince on the other, "Back... back to the queen... the little one found out, it's just... just..."
There was a moment of stagnation and silence in Xiangfeng Hall.
And Bailiji, who was exposed in public, still sat leisurely in his seat, and asked with a half-smile, "Mother, what happened during the time when my son and minister were away?"
If she didn't know his temperament, the empress would definitely be confused by his appearance, "Come here, pass on the maidservant who is beside the prince today."
Bailiji remained unhurried.
Shen Mubai didn't want to speak at first, but she had to make a good impression on the target and the queen, and pretended to be surprised, "Auntie, how could Brother Ji be the one who hurt me? There must be some misunderstanding."
However, her thoughts were good, but some people didn't want to accept this favor. A mocking smile appeared on Junxiu's face, and he curled his lips and said, "No need for the queen mother, it was the son who did it."
The queen's face immediately became ugly.
Shen Mubai hesitated, "Brother Ji, Chu Yi knows that you didn't do it on purpose."
Bailiji looked at her with great interest, his eyes flickering with villains, "If the prince did it on purpose, what should you do?"
Hold.
Shen Mubai really wanted to beat him to death, all the steps were sent up, but he just had to kneel down, but this person really didn't intend to come down.
"Chu Yi doesn't understand Brother Ji's meaning." She bit her lip and said.
"Enough." The queen couldn't bear it anymore and said, "It's fine for you to mess around in your daily life. You have to apologize to Yi'er for this matter."
Bailiji raised his eyebrows, licked his lips and said, "Apologize? There are no such words in the prince's book."
The queen was so angry that the prince always loved to fight against her, and there was never an exception.
She stood up, just about to reach out her hand. Bai Liji raised his face and stared at her with dark eyes, "Queen Mother, are you going to beat my son?"
The queen paused for a moment, and a trace of tiredness flashed in her eyes, which quickly disappeared.
