Chapter 274: The Eve of the Family Feast (2)

"Why are you hiding from me?"

"I'm afraid..... Fear of punishment ......."

"If you are afraid of punishment, why did you do it in the first place? ”

"Concubine...... Concubine ......."

"Get up. ”

The tone of the person above his head softened a little, and Concubine De secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If his tone hadn't been willing to soften today, it would have been really hard for her to do things today.

She ignored it.

Lidu is at Concubine Li's.

If Concubine Li had been smarter, would have played tricks, and had found that Concubine Fang like her, then today's situation would be completely different.

That concubine was obviously unwilling to side with her.

At this time, if she wants to survive, she must find a home.

Concubine Li is undoubtedly the best choice.

She probably didn't even kneel here so easily.

She slowly stood up and gently rubbed her aching knees.

She hadn't knelt for a long time, and her body was becoming more and more useless now.

"Have you had lunch? ”

The emperor has already sat down on the soft collapse.

She straightened her face and sat down beside him.

"No, the concubine wanted to use it after she freshened up, so you came. ”

"Hungry?"

"The concubine is not hungry, and the breakfast has not been digested........."

"Can you guess the purpose of my visit today?"

Cheng Qing lowered his eyes and held his head with one hand.

This is the standard expression on his face when he thinks about things.

"The emperor has something to worry about?"

"Hmm? What do you think? ”

"The emperor should have reviewed the folds in the study at this hour, but when the concubines came here, it means that there is something you are very distressed about, and the concubines need to think about it together. ”

"Hmm. After following me all these years, it seems that there is no vain. ”

Cheng Qing changed his hand and turned his face sideways to look at Concubine De.

His mouth was pursed tightly, and his two eyebrows were furrowed.

Concubine De reached out and gently stroked his eyebrows.

"Your Majesty, don't frown, the concubines will be distressed........."

"Concubine De, what do you think of the prime minister. ”

"Prime Minister?"

Concubine De's hand to retract stopped halfway.

She looked at Cheng Qing's serious face and knew that he wasn't joking.

She withdrew her hand and seriously remembered the prime minister.

She doesn't know much about the prime minister.

I only know that he is a veteran of the two dynasties, and there are countless disciples. When the first emperor was alive, he was the prime minister.

Now, the emperor's prime minister is also him.

If a person can reach this point and be favored by the emperors of the two dynasties, there must be something outstanding.

The emperor is famous for his love of talent, and he has always cherished and reused talented people.

"Prime Minister, he is a very talented person.........

"Of course, I am clear. ”

"Your Majesty, if the Prime Minister has done something that makes you feel very annoyed, the concubine hopes that you can forgive him. ”

"Then can he do such an outrageous thing, isn't this relying on the old and selling the old?"

"The Prime Minister is old, and it is normal for him to treat the emperor as his disciple and teach him earnestly........"

"Concubine De. ”

"Huh?"

"What would you do if someone tried to keep you from becoming queen?"

"The concubine is terrified!"

Concubine De immediately knelt on the ground.

The question was asked so suddenly, she wasn't prepared at all, and she was almost about to answer.

Answered, doesn't it mean that she just wants to be a queen?

It can't be like this.

"Don't say that you don't want to be a queen, I like you because you are ambitious, have a clear purpose, and can wear a mask outside, and your head is better than those concubines. Now, it's time for me to use you. ”

Concubine De was really stunned.

Although she knew that the emperor would often be so direct, she was still a little at a loss when she was unprepared to be so direct suddenly.

Whether she answers this question or not, she is guilty.

"Concubine, concubine...... concubines...."

"I don't want to waste my time. ”

"The concubines will shut the mouths of those people. ”

"How are you going to block?"

"Those who kill decisively will go further. ”

"Hahaha. ”

The man on the limp suddenly laughed.

She was confused when she laughed.

To be honest, she was also trying her luck with this answer.

She wasn't sure if the emperor would buy her account.

But if you laugh, it should mean that this answer is quite satisfactory.

I heard this in the mouth of another person. If you hadn't followed me a long time ago, I would have thought you two knew each other........"

He turned the jade wrench in his hand, and the smile on his lips was retracted.

"Don't kneel, get up. ”

"Your Majesty, Emperor. ”

"You don't have to let others know about today's events, you should be clear about this, right?"

"The concubine understands. ”

"Concubine Li, what have you decided to do for dinner tonight?"

"Eat whatever you want. Didn't have much of an appetite. ”

At the same time, Concubine Li was sitting in her own Xiangrui Palace.

She sat on the throne where she always sits, and she was a little embarrassed.

For the past few days, she has been wearing this expression.

She also shirked the dinner agreed with the emperor that day.

This once-in-a-century grace was let go by herself.

The palace people under his hands naturally didn't understand why their master was like this.

Concubine Li was very worried.

Worry about a lot of things.

She had to figure it out. I want to take my mother into the palace.

She had to find a way and know what her father wanted to do.

But she was trapped in the palace, and she did both of these things.

For this, her hair has fallen out a lot these days.

On the one hand, he has loved his parents since he was a child, and on the other hand, he is a man who has loved him for so long.

Neither side can be abandoned.

She doesn't like to make such a dilemma.

So, she simply learned from the old practice and closed the door.

For the emperor, she now seems to be more than just liking but loving.

It seems that there are more doubts and uneasiness.

She was upset.

Because of the emperor's opinion of their family, because of her father's warnings to her.

It's hard for her to be like that again.

There is really only one emotion that likes him.

She was a little scared.

This man made her start to have fear.

Not everyone can climb to the emperor's position.

Without some means, how did the six princes with no background sit in today's position.

She married him, and she married desperately.

But she didn't think much about these things.

She has always had countless trusts in him.

Even if I come to see her once a year.

Even if he never pampered her.

She looked at this man with the best kindness.

Now, she can't trust him as much as she used to.

She was a little scared.

The custard on the table was already a little cold.

When the palace maid sent it just now, she didn't have much appetite, so she let it be on the table.

Now that I come back to my senses, it's already cold.

She is only now aware that she is a little hungry.

"Peach Blossom, are you outside?"

"!"

"This egg custard is a little cold, can you go and heat it up?"

"Mother, this custard can't be heated. It's fishy in the first place, and it's even fishier when reheated. I'll let the small kitchen stew again!"

Concubine Li frowned, but still didn't say anything.

This custard is her favorite food.

The custard in the small kitchen is a must, and it is made by the chef she brought from her mother's house.

This custard tastes like her home.

Every time she was homesick, she would ask the cook to make egg custard for her.

This time, it's no exception.

It's just that this custard is cold, which really hurts the taste.

She thought, a little unhappy, and slammed the custard on the table.

There was already a hairpin she had just taken off on the table.

The bowl slammed the hairpin.

Fell to the ground.

After a "bang", the custard fell to the ground.

She pursed her lips, a little unhappy with her clumsiness.

She bent down to see what the bowl had shattered.

"Don't touch it, this custard is poisonous!"
