The queen is so angry, she can't go along with it, this woman is really hateful.
In fact, a few years ago, the empress no longer had a stalemate with Concubine Xiao, because she deeply realized how powerful this woman is, and she captured the emperor's heart without resorting to means.
That's enough.
Her married wife has become a decoration.
The two of them talked about love and lived, and he was like a mother in charge wiping their ass behind.
It is indeed not rough.
Now, Concubine Xiao Gui has been thrown into the cold palace, and she has only had a few days of comfort, and the Empress Dowager here is looking for trouble for her.
It is useless to say that she is useless, sometimes she really wants to refute it, but it is a pity that she has to be considerate in everything, since she put on this hat, she can no longer follow her own temper.
"The empress is definitely not here to quarrel with me. If that's the case, then speak directly."
Concubine Xiao Gui is still noble, and there are fewer people serving her, but the most loyal ones, even if the empress dowager comes forward, cannot be transferred, only because the emperor stops her.
"Okay, actually this time I am here, I want to ask you for advice." The empress saw it through, the reason why the empress dowager got close to her was to let her restrain Concubine Xiao, and now that Concubine Xiao was thrown into the cold palace, she looked down on herself even more.
It's really funny.
"Oh?" Concubine Xiao Gui turned her phoenix eyes lightly, smiled brightly, took a sip of the soup, and then asked: "Listen to what the queen said."
"Actually, you know that for so many years, the unhappiness between Bengong and you is just a small fight..."
Concubine Xiao Gui listened quietly, waiting for her next words.
Seeing that she didn't answer, let alone said any polite words, the queen could only sulk secretly. This woman really can hold her breath.
"After all, there is no conflict between you and me."
This sentence is the reason why their empress and concubine can get along peacefully for so many years, Concubine Xiao Gui has never had the intention of taking her post.
The queen is deeply aware of this, so she turns a blind eye to her doting on the harem alone.
But the Empress Dowager is different, she has always felt that the emperor is a creature that cannot be long-lasting or romantic, and needs to be exposed to both rain and dew. In the past few years, the emperor's love for Concubine Xiao has reached the extreme.
The empress dowager was extremely worried, for fear that this woman would show malicious intent, but after persuading the emperor to no avail, she took her anger out on the empress.
In fact, she was also the one who decided on the candidate for the empress back then, the main reason being that the empress listened to her.
"What does the queen want to say?"
The queen thought for a long time, her expression was complicated and confused, and she was very entangled. After a while, she seemed to have made a major decision.
"I help you get out of the limbo, and you help me keep the back seat."
"Hehe..." The surprise in Xiao Guifei's eyes disappeared for a moment, then she leaned back, looked around, and said, "The empress thinks, does this palace need to leave here now?"
The queen also followed her gaze, and her eyes darkened. Yes, everything here is the kind of low-key luxury, which represents the emperor's love for her.
Except that she couldn't walk out of the gate of Yaochi Palace, she lived here without right and wrong, without noise, it was indeed very good.
However, the queen did not believe that a person would not want to be free.
"On the Lantern Festival, the Empress Dowager intends to choose a concubine for the Emperor. It will be a matter of time before Concubine Shu is promoted to a noble concubine. This time, because of your niece Xiao Ting, the Emperor owes the Xu family a huge favor, and the head of the four concubines is undoubtedly hanging in the air."
After the queen finished speaking, she waited for Xiao Guifei's reaction.
It's a pity that this woman is really like what she said when she first entered the palace, she doesn't care much about any status.
What she wants is different from them.
But until now, she still doesn't understand what Xiao Lingyue wants.
Is it really because her heart is not with the emperor, so she can let go gracefully and be open-minded
No, she doesn't believe it.
"Oh, which girl is so honored to become the concubine of the fourth concubine?"
The queen said sadly, "Princess Yuyue."
This time, Concubine Xiao Gui finally showed surprise, "It's her? The Princess of Prince Rui's Mansion."
After that, there is no more text.
The empress didn't know what she was thinking, but she had already said what she had to say. Xiao Lingyue would not be ignorant of the grievances between Prince Rui's residence and Xiao Ting. Therefore, the empress now just needs to wait.
"I will do what I say, as long as you are willing to help me, I will help you get out of the cold palace."
The queen's arrival did not affect the normal life of Yaochi Palace. Concubine Xiao still lived her life as she liked without being disturbed by foreign affairs. The occasional visit of the emperor did not make her happy or joyful, and she did not even reveal a trace of abnormality.
She was a completely different person from the charming and charming woman with the ultimate style.
If it wasn't for that same face, the emperor would have thought that he had admitted the wrong person.
But it is also like this, the emperor has been running to Concubine Xiao more frequently recently, just sitting with her to drink tea and chat a few words, there is no deviance.
On this day, the emperor suddenly mentioned Xiao Ting's awakening, and looked at Concubine Xiao Gui to see how she would react? But Concubine Xiao's expression remained calm.
"It's her blessing that Ting'er is protected by the Ninth Prince."
The emperor was still waiting for her to continue, but Concubine Xiao had no further words.
In the end, the emperor had nothing to say, so he talked for a while before leaving.
Walking out of Yaochi Palace, the emperor looked at the sky, a little dazed.
The eunuch next to him bent over and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, it's cold outside, you should go back to the palace!"
The emperor glanced back at him, sighed and said, "Little Sanzi, do you think the imperial concubine really has no feelings for me?"
"Your Majesty, everyone knows how you treat your imperial concubine. No matter how hard-hearted your empress is, she should be melted after so many years. What's more, from the perspective of a slave, your empress has true feelings for you."
"Hey, you guys, how can you choose nice things to comfort me!" The emperor shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "Maybe the queen mother is right, I should try to see the scenery outside."
Not to mention what will happen in the palace during the Shangyuan Festival, let's say that the Ninth Prince returned to the palace directly after hearing what the emperor said.
He was still far away from the palace, when he saw a girl in a red jacket sitting on top of the stone lion at the door.
Her black hair was flying, she kicked her calves and dangled, and someone below was persuading her, but her eyebrows and eyes were open, very wanton, and she stuck out her tongue at them.
Then, her eyes swept over inadvertently, just in time to see him.
The girl's eyes lit up, she turned over and jumped off the stone lion, and ran over quickly, without any restraint that a woman should have.
Her bright eyes were clear, her little face was flushed from the cold, and the smile on the corner of her mouth almost bent to the sky, and she rushed towards the Ninth Prince.
Seeing her coming, the Ninth Prince stopped, and then stretched out his arms, Xiao Ting bumped into his arms with a smile.
"My lord, why did you come back? Everyone misses you."
If you don't come back, this girl wants to go to the palace to look for it. He's been meowing for so long, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with his body, right
Ninth Prince's body froze, and said: "This king has entered the palace."
"I know, Uncle Mu told me everything, but I just woke up and you're not around, it's really annoying."
Ninth Prince lifted her up and picked her up, walking towards the palace.
Ignore those people who 'unintentionally' passed by, and those who watched the excitement and inquired about the news.
Hong Shao and Lu Huo looked at each other, and then she suddenly asked: "Lu Huo, do you think that the princess smiles very nicely when she sees the prince?"
Lu Hua wanted to ignore her, but she still explained, saying, "Blind people can see it."
"Blind, how can a blind man see?" Hong Shao asked after her.
Green Grass completely ignored Red Spoon this time, she forgot that this one is also a fool.
Xiao Ting twittered all the way about what she experienced after waking up, from outside the palace to the main house of Lanyue Courtyard, she was still talking.
His mouth never stopped.
The Ninth Prince put her on the soft couch, and then glanced at the brocade quilt next to him. Lu Cai had a very wink, and immediately stepped forward and handed it to Xiao Ting through Xiao Ting.
Ninth Prince glanced at her, then took it over, covered Xiao Ting, and said: "It's so cold outside, what are you doing sitting on the rock?"
"Wait for you!" Xiao Ting said casually.
Seeing that the Ninth Prince was choked up speechless by a single sentence, Lv Huo smiled even more. She blessed her body, and then drove everyone out. She closed the door herself and asked Red Spoon to bring some hot soup.
Even those two little ones were stopped outside the door.
Xiao Ting expressed her grievances, "Is my sister ignoring Xiao Shi when she has a brother-in-law?"
Chu Yun snorted softly and said: "They are all adults like this, they only think of us when they are bored, let's go, I will take you to play."
Lvyao looked at them with a smile, and signaled Madam Liu to follow up with the guarding servants, serving the master well.
And she herself retreated into the courtyard to guard the gate for the master.
In the room, the charcoal fire was burning hot, and Xiao Ting sneezed when it was cold and hot.
She sniffed, and then asked: "My lord, have you felt unwell in the past few months?"
Ninth Prince's eyes were fixed, and a little mist drifted through his eyes, and he shook his head in a flash.
Seeing his downcast eyes, Xiao Ting immediately grabbed his hand and said, "If you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me. Besides, I will take care of you for the rest of your life."
Well, the word "nursing" sounds better. No matter how you use "nursing", it feels like you are looking at a prisoner.
She had no intention of speaking, but the Ninth Prince had intentions of listening. When Xiao Ting said these words, his mind suddenly trembled.
He quietly looked into her eyes, which were crystal clear without any miscellaneous world, which also represented her magnanimity, which could be seen through at a glance.
She is sincere, and she really wants to stay by his side for the rest of her life.
"Do you really want to accompany this king for the rest of your life?"
"That's right." Xiao Ting nodded her head as if pounding garlic, "Could it be that you..."
"You married Miss Xu?"
Xiao Ting was surprised. She had just woken up, and she hadn't had time to ask many things. Could it be that the emperor and the dead old woman still insisted on asking the prince to marry that woman when she was in a coma.
The Ninth Prince shook his head almost instantly, and then even he himself noticed the urgency just now, "I don't have any."
