Chapter 1073: A Guest in the East Palace

But I didn't want the weather to be right that day, Concubine Li Xian went to the garden for a walk, where did the little concubine put an old and decrepit concubine in her eyes, and made Concubine Li Xian faint with anger on the spot.

Emperor Yonghe was furious when he learned that the little concubine was not to mention the concubine, and immediately became a concubine, deprived him of all his titles and sent them to the cold palace, and soon died in the cold palace.

Even if he died, Emperor Yonghe didn't think about half of the old love of the day, and ordered someone to roll up a broken mat and throw it into the mass grave.

In that incident, even the queen was reprimanded by Emperor Yonghe.

Since then, no one in the harem dares to provoke Concubine Li Xian easily, and she has to be careful and careful when she speaks to her, if she is weak and can't stand the stimulation and faints, who can afford it?

On this day, Qiao Xiaoru and Lu Zhan came to the East Palace, and the prince specially told Lu Zhan to come earlier, so when Lu Zhan and Qiao Xiaoru arrived, the eldest prince, the third prince, and the fourth prince had not yet come.

What Qiao Xiaoru didn't expect was that it was Concubine Mei who accompanied the prince to greet her and Lu Zhan, and when she saw Concubine Mei smiling at herself, she couldn't help but feel disgusted in her heart.

The prince finally took a good look at Qiao Xiaoru this time, and made a comment in his heart: It is far worse than Zhen'er, but it is rare for a village girl to have this kind of bearing.

After seeing the ceremony, the prince laughed, pulled Lu Zhan and said with a smile: "Ah Zhan will not have so many gifts in the future, and he will be his own person!" ”

He ordered Concubine Mei again: "Zhen'er greets her cousin, don't slack off." ”

Concubine Mei then chuckled and said, "Don't worry, prince! The concubine likes her cousin and sister-in-law very much, and she will definitely greet her. After saying that, he smiled and asked Qiao Xiaoru to go with him.

Although Concubine Mei is a side concubine, she is the side concubine of the prince, and her identity is barely equivalent to Qiao Xiaoru, and she is not low in front of Qiao Xiaoru.

After all, when the crown prince ascends the throne in the future, she, the side concubine, will be a concubine to say the least.

If it is the prince's side concubine, then it will be half a grade lower than the princess of the county.

On that day in Kunning Palace, Concubine Mei called her the princess of the county because she had just been canonized, and now she is a guest at the door, and she is all her own person, so naturally she doesn't have to be so outside.

Qiao Xiaoru didn't want to follow Concubine Mei, so she had no choice but to go.

Concubine Mei led her to the garden, talking and laughing as she walked, describing it as very intimate.

Qiao Xiaoru is very unaccustomed to the closeness she deliberately shows, she always keeps her distance, and her reply is also steady.

Concubine Mei couldn't help but be a little annoyed when she saw that she didn't know how to lift up, and said with a smile: "Is my cousin dissatisfied with me?" Why do you always feel that your cousins are not very happy? ”

Qiao Xiaoru couldn't help but glance at the maids who were not far away and not close to her, thinking that the people who followed her were all the henchmen of Concubine Mei, no wonder she spoke bluntly all of a sudden.

"Where is it," Qiao Xiaoru smiled faintly: "I have limited knowledge, and I'm afraid that I will make a joke if I say something wrong." By the way, I should go meet the crown princess, right? Please also ask Concubine Mei to lead the way. ”

Concubine Mei was even more dissatisfied with her words, did she have to go to see the crown princess? Is her side concubine dispensable in her eyes?

"My sister is busy preparing for the feast, and I won't be free at this time, so my cousin and sister should not disturb her. I'll see you later. Concubine Mei said with a smile.

Qiao Xiaoru saw this, does this Concubine Mei have to fight with herself to the end? That's it! Since she wants to knock, then knock.

"I see." Qiao Xiaoru smiled and didn't mention the matter anymore.

Concubine Mei frowned, and asked the eldest princess again: "How is Mother lately?" I heard that there have been some unnecessary misunderstandings between my cousin and my mother, but I wonder if my cousin needs my help to say a few kind words in front of my mother? My mother has been very fond of me since I was a child, and she can listen to my words. ”

Qiao Xiaoru sneered lightly in her eyes, and felt sorry for you? The eldest princess will hurt you for no reason? It's just a training with you as a chess piece in your hand.

"The little cousin is too careful, there is nothing to do. There was no misunderstanding between my mother and me. ”

Concubine Mei choked again, and was secretly annoyed in her heart: This Qiao's family is here to go against herself today, right?

Concubine Mei also lost the interest in continuing, and took Qiao Xiaoru to a pavilion in the garden where the ladies held a banquet, ordered the maid to wait, and found an excuse to walk away by herself, leaving Qiao Xiaoru with Xiaoxue and Mangosteen there.

Qiao Xiaoru didn't mind, without Concubine Mei by her side, she felt more comfortable in her heart.

After a while, the crown princess came, along with the eldest princess Li.

Qiao Xiaoru and the crown princess have met, Li was born in Jiangmen, and his temperament is not the same as that of ordinary women, revealing a sense of publicity.

When he saw Qiao Xiaoru, he smiled and said, "I wanted to meet this cousin for a long time, today is a coincidence!" Although my cousin and cousin Lu have just entered Beijing, who in the capital doesn't know the names of the two now! ”

Qiao Xiaoru wasn't sure what she meant, but it sounded like she always felt a little bit of embarrassment in her heart, so she smiled and said, "Ah Zhan and I don't understand the rules of the capital, but it's a joke." ”

Li laughed: "Where! Privately, everyone is very envious of their cousins, saying that cousins are really blessed. ”

Qiao Xiaoru said with a smile: "If there was no blessing, I wouldn't be here today, that's right." ”

"But no," Concubine Mei also came over at this time, and took Qiao Xiaoru's words by the way, and said with a smile: "My cousin and sister are really a solid-eyed person, but they are a little too modest. ”

The crown princess coughed and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, cousin, please take a seat." Today's family gathering is a small gathering, and I didn't invite any outsiders, so let's have a good conversation after dinner. My cousin and sister have just returned to Beijing, and my sister-in-law has only returned from Jinling for a long time, and I haven't seen her for a long time. ”

Everyone sat down with a smile.

Eating in the garden for a while, the eyes are clear, the weather is sunny and just right, except that Concubine Mei is a little eye-catching, and always likes to brush her presence in front of herself, saying that the relationship is more intimate than others, which makes people a little irritable, this trip to the East Palace is very perfect.

After the meal, I went to the main room where the princess lived to drink tea, Concubine Mei smiled and said that she had a bag of good tea two days ago, which was the taste that her mother liked, and asked Qiao Xiaoru to go to her to get it, so that she could bring it back in person after a while, and she would save her from sending someone to go again.

Maybe there is really tea to bring, but Qiao Xiaoru may not have to go and get it in person. Concubine Mei's meaning is clear, that is, to ask Qiao Xiaoru to go to her to talk privately.

In front of the crown princess and the eldest princess, although Qiao Xiaoru was full of disgust and reluctance, it was not good not to give face to Concubine Mei, so she said goodbye to the crown princess and the eldest princess and went with her.
