Chapter 1071: Concubine Mei's thoughts
In her opinion, she has already received the ultimate favor of a man for a woman, and no one can be better than her.
can hear the rumors that the loyal county king protects his wife and spoils his wife, and the loyal county king seems to be better and more attentive to the county princess than the prince to her, which makes Concubine Mei feel awkward all of a sudden.
Because of this, on the day Lu Zhan was in the East Palace, she instructed Qiu Fu to hook up, and said that it was for the eldest princess to share her worries and install her own people beside Lu Zhan for the crown prince, but in fact, to put it bluntly, she was jealous, and she wanted to add to the blockage of the young lady Lu who had never met.
Lu Zhan humiliated Qiu Fu so unceremoniously and refused, and Concubine Mei's heart was even more sour.
When I saw Qiao Xiaoru today, I felt a little disappreciative in addition to being sour: such a woman is not outstanding compared to herself, and the king of Zhongxin County is really discerning......
After the banquet was over, Concubine Xiao and the others said goodbye one after another, and the queen left the eldest princess to speak, and ordered the crown princess and Concubine Mei to take care of Qiao Xiaoru, and said to Qiao Xiaoru with a smile: "Wait a while, Ah Zhan, the third and fourth children will come over to kowtow to the palace, you can stay for a while." There is no need to be polite here in this palace, if you are tired, lie down in the side hall for a while and rest, no one will say anything about you. ”
Qiao Xiaoru smiled and thanked her, naturally she would not be so honest and unceremonious, and she would really lie down and rest in the queen's palace.
The queen and the eldest princess went to the apse, and when they saw the eldest princess's smiling face fall, the queen couldn't help patting her hand and smiled: "I think Qiao's is not bad, it's not worse than people, and you don't lose anything by sitting with the crown princess. ”
The eldest princess smiled and sighed, "What's the use?" That lowly background can't change anything. Bengong is such a son, and he wants to give him the best, but that kid has been hit by an evil tendon, which really makes Bengong angry! ”
"How can you say that about your own son," the queen smiled: "Ah Zhan has suffered so much to come back, so you can rely on him, and he will be happy." ”
"The imperial sister-in-law is really!" The eldest princess laughed and smiled disapprerovingly: "Where did he know anything when he just came back?" How can you rely on him for everything? He didn't know until he was in trouble! ”
"This is what I said wrongly and asked you to pick it out," the queen also smiled, shook her head lightly, and said with a smile: "Ah Zhan looks steady, his eyes are sharp, he is an idea, not like he will easily get into trouble." Yanran, you, are in the midst of blessings and do not know blessings. ”
The eldest princess smiled vainly, decisively ended the topic, and turned to mention Xiao Guifei and the third prince.
Today, the third prince Zhao Chun was named the king of Ming, and the fourth prince Zhao Wen was named the king of letters, these two have always had a good relationship, and this time it can be regarded as a great increase in strength, maybe Xiao Guifei and the third prince will do something good after that.
At the mention of these two, the queen also had a headache and helplessness, and her eyebrows slowly frowned.
Besides, Qiao Xiaoru was talking with the crown princess and Concubine Mei in the outer hall.
With Concubine Mei here, the crown princess didn't want to say anything to Qiao Xiaoru, just smiled and asked if everything she could get used to after entering Beijing, what she did in the mansion on weekdays, when she would go to the East Palace as a guest and take her daughter to let her meet her too, etc.
He also casually introduced some stories about the capital.
Concubine Mei had been listening with a smile on the side, and suddenly smiled: "Do you want to go to the courtyard to enjoy the scenery?" The princess of the county should know that the concubine body also came out of the eldest princess's mansion, and she has a lot of things to say to the princess of the county! ”
The implication is that she wants to talk to Qiao Xiaoru about private things, and asks the princess not to follow.
Rao is the crown princess is generous, and when she heard this, she felt a little embarrassed in her heart, smiled faintly, and didn't make a sound.
What about the diaphragm? Could it be that she could still make trouble with Concubine Mei in Kunning Palace because of such a trivial matter?
Qiao Xiaoru was also unhappy in her heart, and said in her heart, you are a white lotus, as soon as you saw my husband, you made despicable means to stuff him with a woman, and you are embarrassed to talk to me in such a very intimate tone in front of people?
Do I know you? I don't seem to be so close to you!
Qiao Xiaoru smiled detachedly and said politely: "If Concubine Mei feels dull and bored, it is better to go out for a walk by herself." I'm a little tired, but I can't walk anymore. ”
The crown princess was stunned, and couldn't help but glance at Qiao Xiaoru, the corners of her lips hooked slightly, and her heart was inexplicably much more comfortable.
Although she is very calm and will not fight with Concubine Mei, it is naturally a pleasant thing to see Concubine Mei deflated.
Concubine Mei was stunned, slightly discolored, and secretly annoyed.
She thought that she had brought out of the eldest princess's mansion to speak, and Qiao Xiaoru had to give herself face no matter what, but who knew that she refused.
When she wanted to ask anything, because this was Kunning Palace, she didn't want to ask, and smiled: "Since the princess of the county is tired, forget it, there will be more opportunities to speak in the future." ”
Qiao Xiaoru smiled at her and didn't say anything.
Seeing this, Concubine Mei was even darker and sullen, and sneered in her heart that she was really a country woman who couldn't get on the stage, no wonder her mother didn't like her!
Seeing that the atmosphere had calmed down a little, the crown princess coughed, and smiled and talked to Qiao Xiaoru about the origin of the capital.
Concubine Mei has obviously read a lot of books under the teaching of the eldest princess, plus she is smart and witty, not to be outdone, she quietly intercepted the words of the princess from time to time, and also laughed.
The crown princess smiled faintly, too lazy to bother with her.
Qiao Xiaoru was even more disgusted with her, polite and detached, and didn't take her words much.
It's the first time that Concubine Mei has been so snubbed, but it is clear that she has been snubbed, and she can't find fault with it, and she can't help but hold her stomach for anger.
After a while, the crown prince and Lu Zhan, the third prince, and the fourth prince all came.
kowtowed to the queen and said goodbye, and the queen smiled and encouraged a few words, and gave a congratulatory gift to Lu Zhan and the others.
It didn't make sense for the third prince and the fourth prince to stay here, so they received the queen's congratulatory gift and retired.
For a while, the princess, Lu Zhan, and Qiao Xiaoru should also leave the palace, and today it is inevitable that many people's mansions will send people to congratulate them, and it is time to go back.
The prince smiled and said with a smile that he would invite Lu Zhan and Qiao Xiaoru to a small gathering in the east in two days, and by the way, he invited all the brothers to say goodbye.
The queen left the prince to speak privately for a while, and told him that in the future, the third prince and the fourth prince will also be princes, and they will definitely soon form a staff team and a prince's guard. By next year at the latest, he will enter the DPRK as an official consul.
Let him pay careful attention, especially in the court, and it is better to leave them both an inconsequential position for them to toss when the time comes.
The prince nodded his head and agreed with a smile, and comforted the queen with a smile: "Don't worry, the queen mother, the staff of the East Palace and the Taifu will be attentive to these things." As long as the father is satisfied with his sons, it is not so easy to shake what they want. ”
