"Your Majesty the Emperor, if Xue'er answers, will it be the moon of the high priest in the palace to our Ling Mansion?"

The crisp and sweet children's voice carried a touch of innocence and coquettishness that belonged to children, so that Ling Xiaotian, who didn't know how to answer, and Dongfang Hao, who secretly sneered in his heart, and all the ministers in the New Year's Hall were stunned at the same time, some ministers who had not yet understood this question all let out a knowing laugh.

Some ministers even pointed at Xue'er and said with a smile: "Look at this child, how cute and smart he is, and he even knows how to work for the benefit of the old general. Huh..."

Zhang Ge of Wenyuan Pavilion, and the other members of the group laughed while brushing their beards, and suddenly the dull atmosphere just now was completely broken.

"Be bold, talk to Your Majesty, call yourself a courtier, and don't come forward and kneel down to apologize to Your Majesty!" Ling Xiaotian listened to the laughter and conversation in the hall, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, although he was staring at his daughter with his eyes, but there was a smile in his eyes that could not be hidden.

When Xue'er stepped forward, Ling Xiaotian hurriedly pulled Xue'er to kneel, although Xue'er was a hundred unwilling in her heart, secretly cursing the etiquette and customs of this ancient person, but she also knew that as the daughter of a courtier, sooner or later she would inevitably bow down, who made her father the god of war in this country. Kneel and kneel, anyway, I won't lose a piece of meat, hmph, I'm going to let this old emperor kneel back for me later!

Xue'er was dissatisfied in her heart, and secretly slandered some black words, but she didn't know that some words would come true.

With a pop and a kneeling in no order, the ministers laughed again, "What a simple child, it's really likeable." Zhang Ge of Wenyuan Pavilion muttered again.

Shifang, who had already been sitting in the general's banquet, had noticed the movements of the emperor and the jade concubine from the beginning, and at this time, Xue'er knelt in front of her small body, her brows were inadvertently furrowed, and she was just about to stand up and say something, when she suddenly received a look from Zhang Ge Lao on the opposite side, which seemed to have other deep meanings, which made Shifang couldn't help but be stunned, but at such a stunned moment, the queen mother, who had not made a sound since she came to the prayer hall, spoke.

"Is this the daughter of the Ling Mansion who made a fuss a while ago? It's really well-behaved and cute, you see that you are scared of this child, come here, let this palace take a good look at how the little stubborn in our imperial capital begged for the amethyst glazed jade from His Majesty, that is the treasure jade that the palace and the concubine's sister have not obtained for a long time. ”

The gentle and virtuous, but also noble and gorgeous queen, her face was full of curiosity and affection, looking at Xue'er kneeling in front of her, and the corners of her mouth and eyebrows were all smiles.

As soon as the queen's words fell, the face of the Yu Guifei who was gloating next to her suddenly changed, and a touch of unwillingness and annoyance flashed in her eyes, but in this palace, although she was honored and favored, and the queen never competed with her for favor, she knew that Dongfang Hao would never disobey the queen.

Although she only knew that the queen was born in the Taiwei Mansion, she was not very close to the Taiwei Mansion, and she had never seen the lady of the Taiwei Mansion.

But her position is extremely strong, even if she once deliberately made a little 'incident', it always ended without a problem, and even the face of the queen in front of her did not even change.

And the emperor's attitude towards the queen also made her sometimes confused, so she ignored each other for the queen over time.

However, the queen, who has always been reluctant to deal with these mundane matters, unexpectedly defended the little beast of Ling Mansion today, which surprised Yu Guifei, and not only her, even Dongfang Hao's brows moved unconsciously, and a look of hesitation appeared on his face.

At this moment, the crown prince Dongfang Tianyu appeared at the door of the main hall at some point, looking at Ling Xiaotian and Xue'er kneeling in the hall, and a flash of gloom quickly flashed in his eyes.

"Father, what the queen mother said is the same as what the son thinks, the son has also heard of the old general's daughter, and when I see it today, it is really innocent and casual, and the mind is pure, lovely and lively, so the amethyst glass jade that even the queen mother misses is rewarded."

"Hahaha!! The queen and the crown prince said very much, come on, come on, Xue'er, hurry up, your father's Yulu is the highest in the court, I can't give the high priest's share to you Lingfu anymore, my dragon chair has to rely on the high priest to check my pulse, I don't dare to offend the high priest, hahaha!! ”

When Xue'er heard this, her mouth twitched, and she said in her heart, how can this royal person change his face as if he was turning a book, and he was just about to get up, but suddenly found that his father was still kneeling, and immediately drooped, and a pair of bright eyes only looked at Ling Xiaotian, and this move suddenly ushered in the unanimous nod of all the ministers.

"Old general, please get up." Dongfang Hao watched and listened to all directions, although he hated Xue'er's actions in his heart, but he had no choice but to laugh dryly and help Ling Xiaotian up. “

"Old general, tiger father has no dog daughter, I really admire the old general's way of raising daughters." A meaningful sentence, accompanied by Dongfang Hao's meaningful eyes, came out, but this sentence was said by Dongfang Hao in a whisper, and no one else heard it. Only Ling Xiaotian was secretly frightened in his heart.

But there was no change on his face, and he still bowed down loyally, "Your Majesty, I praised it, and the minister didn't dare to be." As soon as the words fell, a little eunuch who was waiting had already come to the front, bowed to Emperor Dongfang Hao, and then looked at Xue'er with great flattery and said, "Miss Xue'er invites the old slave to meet the palace maid." ”

When Xue'er heard this, she raised her eyes and saw a dignified and gorgeous woman smiling at her, so Xue'er nodded obediently and followed the eunuch up the steps.

When she knelt just now, she heard it clearly, this queen mother had good things to say to herself, and most importantly, this queen mother didn't know why, but it made her have an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

But she was sure that she hadn't seen her, and then looked at the Yu Guifei next to her, looking at her with a blue face and dry eyes, Xue'er was very happy in her heart, so she had a better impression of this queen mother.

"Cher, is she? It's so delicate and cute. The queen looked at Xue'er who came closer, stretched out her hand and gently grabbed Xue'er's arm, looked at Xue'er's little face, and smiled gently.

It's cold! The moment Xue'er was pulled, she felt that her hand was surrounded by a piece of cold jade, and she secretly shivered in her heart, and her eyes unconsciously looked at the white jade-like hand.

"Mother's hands are good...... Pretty. Xue'er, who was just about to say cold, suddenly found that her little hand was gently pinched by the queen, and looked up at the misty water eyes looking at herself, Xue'er almost subconsciously changed her mouth.

"Hehe, I like this child, it seems that His Majesty's reward is right, and the concubine will no longer complain about His Majesty." After speaking, the misty eyes were like a light veil under the water, looking at Dongfang Hao with an unbelieving face.
