Chapter 232: 'Rival in Love'

Chapter 232: 'Rival in Love'

Empress Song's face was a little sneering, and Concubine Li on the side couldn't help but cover her lips with a handkerchief and said softly. "This little baby is very clever,"

Li Guifei has been fighting with the queen for a lifetime, which is no longer a secret in the palace, although she has never sat on the queen's throne, but Li Guifei relies on the emperor's favor, although her position is not as good as the queen, but in the palace she is faintly on par with the queen. Xiao Mingyue's reaction naturally pleased Concubine Li, but the baby of the Qi family was honest in Xie Ke's belly, which did not mean that she would do her duty when she was born.

You must know that Qi Lu loves his daughter-in-law, and people who don't have babies also love his mother.

So in the face of Li Guifei's loving expression and enthusiastic hands, Xiaowa decisively twisted her little head and lay on Xie Ke's shoulder, leaving everyone with a chubby little back.

Now it was Empress Song's turn to sneer.

"My sister's nails are so long, it's really not suitable for holding a doll, be careful to scratch the doll's little face with fine skin and tender flesh." Li Guifei withdrew her hand, her face was really not good-looking.

The heart is a thorn, and the children he gave birth to follow him, and the baby who is only a few months old is already so annoying...... Li Guifei naturally didn't really like the little girl of the Qi family, especially a little girl who was named the county lord. is the daughter of his son Li Xiangsheng, at most, she can only be crowned a county lord.

This child turned out to be the same as his future granddaughter.

If her granddaughter sees the daughter of the Qi family in the future, she has to salute her.

Although they are both county lords, who made the family get married early, and the children also came early. Pity her son far away in the fiefdom. is to marry his son to a noble wife, and the ministers in Beijing don't want their daughters to marry far away.

A child actually made Li Guifei think so much......

It was Xiao Mingyue's birth that caused people to hurt again, but the more Li Guifei looked at it, the more dazzling she felt.

In addition, he received a message from his son secretly, in the north, this Qi Lu has repeatedly ruined his son's good things. It's just that at the moment, she can't be embarrassed by Qi Lu, after all, if she embarrass Qi Lu here, so that Qi Lu defects to the prince in anger, it will really be more than worth the loss.

It's just that Concubine Li doesn't want to act anymore.

She smiled reluctantly and took a brocade box from the palace maid beside her.

"We're all grandmothers. Nor can they come empty-handed. This is the longevity lock that I ordered someone to build after I heard that Alu had a daughter. Something is not worth a few silvers though. However, the silversmith's craftsmanship is still exquisite, and the longevity lock worn by the second prince around his neck when he was a child is also from this silversmith's hand. ”

Xie Ke hugged his daughter, and Qi Lu took it with a smile.

"Thank you, Lady Gui."

A large part of the reason why Li Guifei is favored is that she can speak well. often coaxes the emperor to laugh. At this time, Qi Lu was respectful to her. Naturally, there was not the slightest displeasure on her face. "You're fast. After more than a year of marriage, he became a father. Look at your second imperial brother, who is four years older than you, and he hasn't even married a concubine yet. I just wanted to make one for my granddaughter. There is no chance. So I have to thank you, boy, or I don't know when I would have had the opportunity to be this grandmother. ”

These words are a little playful, and the entire hall is alive because of Concubine Li's words, and it is no longer as dull as when they first came in. The emperor also smiled slowly.

"As long as you talk a lot, don't you just dislike me for not having a wife for Xiang'er? Which girl do you fancy, so tell me bluntly. My son...... If you want to marry any girl in the world, it's not a matter of getting your hands dirty, I just nodded. ”

“…… The concubine thanked His Majesty for Xiang'er. The smile on Concubine Li's face this time was sincere.

She vaguely mentioned her son's marriage in front of the emperor many times, but the emperor prevaricated every time, either it was too early or the opportunity was not available. This time, the emperor finally gave the right words, and Concubine Li Guifei was naturally happy. You must know that finding a strong father-in-law for your son can be described as a tiger with wings.

Compared with the crown prince, his son is better in terms of learning and appearance.

The difference is that her mother is only a concubine, not a queen.

But as long as she can think of giving her son Zhang Luo a girl from a noble background, what if her son is not a concubine? also has the strength to compete with the crown prince.

Concubine Li was happy, but the queen naturally didn't like it.

It's just that in front of the emperor, the queen can only hide her dislike in her heart. For Qi Lu, the queen was really disappointed...... Qi's father and Qi's son are both the prince's henchmen, but the second son of the Qi family is a maverick.

No one seems to be able to read his mind.

I felt that there was still a chance to win him over, but I was unwilling to give up. The prince made several overtures, but he neither accepted nor refused. This time, Qi Lu's daughter was crowned the county lord, and the prince gave a generous gift, and Qi Lu did not refuse. just sent someone to invite him into the prince's mansion for a while, but he avoided it.

This time it was easy to meet in the palace.

Empress Song really wanted to question Qi Lu if he wanted to defect to the crown prince.

It's just that neither the emperor nor a few 'good sisters' will give her this opportunity. At the beginning, she wanted to wait for Xie Ke to greet her, so she left Xie Ke to talk, Qi Lu's kid couldn't wait, so he naturally had to go to her to pick up his wife and children in person. At that time, she asked the opportunity, no matter what, she must let Qi Lu make a decision today.

It's just that people are not as good as heaven.

Qi Lu actually brought his wife and daughter directly to see His Majesty, and did not go to the harem to greet her.

She couldn't, so she had to come to the main hall to meet in person, but she didn't want to go out before Concubine Li and a few people visited, it turned out that several people had heard the news, and they all planned to go to the main hall to meet the little county lord of the Qi family.

Eventually, a few came in pairs.

"Congratulations to my sister so much, I finally broke off a matter of my heart."

"Tongxi, my sister's child is like my sister's child. Once Xiang'er marries a wife, I will really feel relieved to have a son and a half daughter. The prince has been married for more than two years...... How is the crown princess doing? ”

These words are like ripping out the heart of Queen Song.

Good? How can it be good? There is no news about the belly after two years of marriage, if it weren't for the rule that the royal concubine should not be earlier than the rule that the wife and children should not be earlier, she would have chosen a few girls to send her son to the prince's mansion.

"Naturally, it's good, I went into the palace a few days ago to drink tea with the palace. The child of the crown princess is docile, and she respects the prince like a guest. Hongu and his sister have the same thoughts, if they have a son and a half daughter, Hongu will be relieved. After Queen Song sighed, she also handed Qi Lu a brocade box.

"It's not a good thing, it's just for children to play with." Qi Lu also took it with a smile, feeling that he hadn't watched the play yet, and he felt a pity.

He felt that women were really magical existences, and two women could stage such a good show in front of the emperor that you fight for me, and you scold me for loss. After that, Concubine Xiao and Concubine Tang also gave gifts successively. Only then did the Emperor speak. "The things have also been sent, and the little county lord has also seen it, so let's retire first, and I and Alu still have something to explain."

Several palace concubines naturally obeyed their fate...... Empress Song was in front, and after saluting the emperor again, she was about to retreat.

At this moment, another attendant stepped forward.

A few words were whispered in the Emperor's ear, and the Emperor seemed to frown, and finally nodded.

The chamberlain straightened up and raised his voice. "Princess Xuanhele goes to the palace." As soon as she heard that her daughter was coming, Queen Song naturally couldn't take a step. At the same time, her gaze swept lightly over Xie Ke, and she tried her best to hide it in her eyes, but she still saw a few wisps of hatred.

At this time, Xie Ke was coaxing his daughter with his heart, where did he have the heart to pay attention to Queen Song's white eyes.

It was after hearing the words of Princess Xuanhele entering the palace for a while, that Princess Hele and the rumored 'Princess Hele' were put on the same number. But she didn't go to her heart, it is important to have a good relationship between their husband and wife, as for whether there is a girl who has ever loved * Muqilu? What's the matter, they became relatives, and now they even have children. So it's really not interesting to turn over those old accounts. It's just that Qi Lu always pays attention to the movements of the palace, and naturally the queen's faint glance at Xie Ke has not escaped his eyes.

He couldn't help but snort coldly in his heart.

On weekdays, all of them look like dogs, full of 'Alu, Alu'.

But when it came to a critical moment, he didn't abandon him without hesitation...... The last time the emperor plotted against him, the queen was also present.

He didn't believe that the queen couldn't see the slightest clue.

The emperor still had some remorse for his eyes afterwards, but he, the 'aunt' empress, had no remorse at all. And when I saw him again, the gaze was ...... It's a little weird. Now that she thinks about it, she may be surprised that the emperor didn't take his life.

In short, the world is as black as a crow, just like the women in the harem are all raccoon dogs.

The voice of the chamberlain fell, and a lake-green figure quickly stepped into the main hall with brisk steps. When the emperor saw this person, his expression seemed a little helpless.

The man knelt on the ground and saluted, 'Father.' Then he turned to Queen Song and sweetly called the queen mother...... "You girl, you are really getting more and more naughty, how dare you come to the hall to mess around?" ”

At this time, Xiao Mingyue finally determined that she had no 'food' to eat for the time being, her little mouth was deflated, and she shrank into Xie Ke's arms with a lazy look. And Xie Ke finally had the leisure to take a look at the legendary princess Hele who was a childhood sweetheart with Qi Lu and had no guesses.

Hele is not a beauty, it can only be said that she has a pampered temperament since childhood, after all, as the princess of Dawei and the only daughter of the emperor, she is naturally quite favored. So at a glance, she is a pampered and delicate lady.

Maybe it's because she has been favored since she was a child, and her eyes on people make Xie Ke dislike...... It seems to be half-squinted, with a look of superiority. Especially when I look at her...... "My daughter just heard that Brother Lu had entered the palace, thinking that she hadn't seen Brother Lu for a long time, and I heard that Brother Lu had given birth to a beautiful daughter, so I naturally had to come and take a look." Brother Lil, is this your daughter? Can I give it a hug? (To be continued.) )
