Chapter 162: Low-key

Hearing this voice, Sang Qingrou's heart sank, before she saw the emperor talking about business, why was she named?

Sang Xiaoxi stepped forward first, and Sang Qingrou had no choice but to follow out of the crowd.

Sang Xiaoxi was already standing in the front row, and walked to the Queen Mother in three or two steps, kneeling respectfully on the ground. Sang Qingrou walked out of the corner, which made the Queen Mother couldn't help but look at her twice.

The one wearing the veil must be Sang Qingrou. I heard that she was injured last time to save King Chen. How much courage does it take for a woman to accept that she has a disfigured appearance? The same thing happens to her, and she may not be able to bear it.

"Sang Qingrou, raise your head and let the mourning family take a look. ”

Sang Qingrou took a deep breath and raised her head to look at the woman in the high position.

She was dressed in a dark blue palace dress, and the hem of her skirt was embroidered with gold thread of a phoenix flying high, and the phoenix hairpin on her head reflected each other. There was no expression on her serious face, and the delicate makeup covered most of the wrinkles on her face, and at first glance, it was still impossible to tell her age.

is worthy of being a woman in the palace, with this condition, properly maintained, she still looks much stronger than ordinary women.

The Queen Mother also looked at Sang Qingrou carefully, and the veil covered her face. The Queen Mother only saw the clear and clean eyes under the eyebrows of the distant mountain. This plain dress is eye-catching.

Sang Xiaoxi next to him, although he looks delicate, the two of them are dressed similarly, in comparison, Sang Qingrou is more attention-grabbing.

"It's you who saved King Chen?"

After Sang Qingrou bowed, she replied: "If you go back to the Queen Mother, this is what the courtiers should do." If you are someone else, you will definitely be like a courtier, desperate to block that sword for King Chen. ”

"But you also saved the life of the eldest prince! You are the life-saving benefactor of my Ouyang family, and this time you found out the culprit of the epidemic, or it is said, you also helped a lot. I really didn't expect that Prime Minister Sang Cheng actually cultivated such an excellent daughter, which is really rare. ”

Sang Qingrou listened to these words of approval, and the more she listened, the more she felt that something was not right.

If the Queen Mother continues to praise like this, won't all the credit become her own? What should Sang Xiaoxi do?

No, she can't let everyone look at herself.

Sang Qingrou said humbly: "Back to the Queen Mother, in fact, the biggest credit for this epidemic should be the sister of His Royal Highness King Chen and his courtiers. His Royal Highness King Chen controlled the situation, so that the epidemic was controlled and did not spread, and as for the sister of the courtier, she was the most critical. Without her finding a cure for the epidemic, I'm afraid that Wangjia Village has now become a purgatory on earth. ”

The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction, this girl, she has merit, but she does not take credit. Nowadays, it is rare for young people to have such an idea.

"You're very modest! That's a good thing, this time, if you don't have the prescription of the second lady of the Sang family, you really don't know what to do. ”

It's just that the Queen Mother also heard that a while ago, the two sisters competed in the teahouse, and although Sang Xiaoxi got the true inheritance of the Liu family, she didn't win Sang Qingrou.

Sang Qingrou learned medical skills by herself, and she was able to win Sang Xiaoxi's Liu family true inheritance. After hearing this, the Queen Mother was quite surprised. Now that I look at it, this sister's temperament is indeed better than that of my sister, in the end, she is the daughter of the concubine, even if her appearance is ruined, it still feels different.

The Queen Mother glanced at Sang Xiaoxi and didn't ask her anything, just smiled and asked them to get up.

"The mourning family is also old and confused, how can you let the two heroes keep kneeling on the ground and replying? Get up quickly! Today is a good day to reward meritorious deeds, as for how to reward, let's wait for the emperor to decide personally!"

Sang Xiaoxi was startled, and almost looked up at the Queen Mother. Fortunately, she reacted, so she had to keep her head down and retreat to the side.

She is the biggest hero, but just now, the Queen Mother actually left all her attention on Sang Qingrou. The more Sang Xiaoxi thought about it, the more aggrieved she became! Could it be that because she was a concubine, she didn't deserve the attention of the Queen Mother?

If there is no Sang Qingrou today, everyone will only see themselves.

In the sleeve, she held her hand tightly and pinched it hard, and she didn't feel any pain. She wants to let herself remember today's pain, and when she and Sang Qingrou are on an equal footing, no one will look down on her again.

At this time, the queen sighed from the side.

"This eldest lady of the Sang family is worthy of being the person that the emperor likes, her appearance and talent are among the best, and she is also a good match for His Royal Highness King Chen. The courtiers were ten thousand in favor. However, the day before yesterday, Concubine Yu said in front of her daughter-in-law, saying that it was a fly in the ointment now, and this woman's appearance was ruined. In the future, if you always live with a veil like this, you will be afraid that something will be inappropriate. What do you think, Queen Mother?"

The Queen Mother glanced at the Empress and said with a cold face: "Since you are the Empress, you should be thoughtful, how can you believe what a concubine said? You are the emperor's wife, you should be more far-sighted." Wearing a veil is not in the way, but King Chen is this kind of superficial person who only cares about his appearance? There are thousands of beautiful women, smart and virtuous, and they are hard to find. ”

The queen immediately lowered her head: "The queen mother has taught her a lesson! It's just that when Concubine Yu said this, her daughter-in-law also listened to it." Come to think of it, the emperor must have his own decision, and we don't need to make up our minds. ”

"The emperor has vision and foresight, so let's not get involved in the marriage of the younger generations. Besides, the marriage between Miss Sang and King Chen was decided earlier. Presumably, after this time, the emperor had already planned to let the two children get married as soon as possible. ”

The Queen Mother and the Queen laughed, but these words were firmly remembered by others. Before, everyone was still speculating whether this marriage could be successful, but now listening to the Queen Mother's tone, it is really ironclad.

Isn't Sang Xiaoxi out of drama?

But some people are also thinking, a concubine, if she can take advantage of this incident to marry King Chen and be a side concubine, it is also good.

Being able to get the favor of King Chen, even if it is to be a concubine, is a great creation for ordinary women.

But when Sang Xiaoxi heard this, his face became more and more ugly. There was already a problem in the relationship between her and King Chen, if she didn't seize the opportunity this time, would it be even more impossible between her and King Chen?

However, she had two wishes. If the emperor asks, which one is she going to choose?

Sang Xiaoxi lowered his head, pondering this question, and didn't know how time passed.

It didn't take long for the palace people to come and spread the word, asking everyone to move to the Jade Dust Hall to participate in the palace banquet. Sang Qingrou came back to her senses, quietly followed behind the others, and walked to the end, slowly following up.

A voice beside her suddenly reached her ear: "How do you look, you don't seem to want to marry King Chen?"

She turned her face sideways and saw that Fu Yuan didn't know when she was standing beside her.
