Chapter 130: Temptation

"Miss Xie, please get up. There is no need to be so polite ......," Empress Song said gently.

Xie Ke thanked him, and then slowly got up.

She kept her head hanging slightly, as a way to show her humility to the royal family.

It's just that this humility seems to others to be a little timid, but the little girl in the temple seems to be a little timid.

Come to think of it, a girl from a small clan, I am afraid that she will never have the opportunity to see a real dignitary in her life, because she married the second son of the Qi family, she was able to meet Tianyan, how can she not be apprehensive, and she naturally has a little fear in her heart.

Several maidens, including Queen Song, looked at the little girl in the hall with great interest, although she combed the woman's hair, but the figure was obviously still a little girl. Slender, soft, with a plain white face, but her head hung slightly, and everyone couldn't see her appearance clearly.

"Raise your head and let this palace see, if you talk about it from Aluna, you still have to call this palace uncle." After Empress Song's voice fell, several voices couldn't help but echo each other.

Qi Lu said that Queen Song had a gentle temperament, and it seemed that Qi Lu had always taken care of her. From Qi Lu's mouth, Xie Ke could hear a little bit of his good impression of Empress Song, thinking that with his temperament, the person who could make him defenseless must have an excellent personality.

And listening to the voice, Queen Song's voice was warm, and when she spoke to her, she naturally had a little concern for her elders.

Xie Ke raised his head slowly, not surprisingly...... Even the palace concubines who boasted of seeing beautiful women couldn't help but feel that the little girl in front of them was extremely beautiful. Standing in the hall so timidly, it was really like a small flower floating around, which made people feel a little pity, and the expression on Queen Song's face was even gentler.

She turned sideways to Li Guifei and Xiao Guifei on the side. "Look at this little appearance, or Aluna kid will fight for life and death." Concubine Xiao nodded in agreement. "That's right, I used to think that all the beauties were gathered in Beijing, but I didn't expect that Aluna kid would find the most beautiful. This little girl of the Xie family gave birth to a ...... Let me, a half-old, be reluctant to look away. Presumably, Aluna kid has been happy these days. ”

Empress Song couldn't help but hide her veil and chuckle.

"You're talking more and more openly, and you're still half-old? If you are a half-old, how many years older than you, I'm not an old man. ”

Xiao Guifei didn't seem to know how to continue for a while. Fortunately, the noble concubine Li, who had been sitting quietly beside her, spoke. "Sister Queen and Sister Xiao have something to fight about, our sons are older than Alu, we are naturally old, in front of other little girls. I'm not afraid that after I go back, the little girl will learn to listen to Alu, and let that kid laugh at us for 'disrespecting the old'. Li's voice fell, and Empress Song and Concubine Xiao smiled together.

"That's funny. Case...... Shouldn't we give the little girl some greeting gifts, so that we can buy it. Empress Song teased.

Several people chimed in. A few moments later, several trays were placed in front of Xie Ke.

A pair of jade pendants sent by the queen, and a set of pearl heads sent by Li Guifei. There are also a few boxes of pearl powder that can nourish the beauty given by Xiao Guifei...... Xie Ke hurriedly knelt on the ground to thank him. "You girl, we are not outsiders, but I grew up watching Aluna kid.

Although he called me aunt, I regarded him as a son. You are the wife he chose, and this palace naturally loves the house and Wu. ”

"Thank you, Queen." Xie Ke responded obediently.

Li and Xiao asked about Xie Ke's mother's family again, knowing that she lost her mother at a young age, they couldn't help but show sympathy. I asked again if there were any unmarried sisters in the Xie Ke clan. Xie Ke answered truthfully, saying that there was another clan sister......

She said naturally Xie Xia.

Concubine Xiao seemed to be quite interested in this, and shouted that her mother's family had a nephew who had not married a wife so far.

If the girls of the Xie family are like Xie Ke. She wants to be the big matchmaker.

Xie Ke smiled on his face, and only said that the girls of the Xie family were all taught by Mrs. Xie herself, but she didn't mention what her appearance was. It made Xiao Guifei's heart itch, and the Xiao family was also one of the most famous nobles in Beijing.

Although it is slightly inferior to the Qi family, if you marry a girl from the Xie family, it is really condescending.

As for why Xiao Guifei has something to say.

The queen and Li Guishi naturally understood, and the little girl in front of her looked timid, but she really couldn't see any shrewdness. But Qi Lu did everything possible to marry her and enter the door. Although this appearance is really outstanding, there are many beautiful girls, although Xie Ke is beautiful. But it's not impossible to find someone more beautiful than her.

But why did Qi Lu marry her?

Except for the dowry, how many people can't think of a nearby reason?

Is the Qi clan short of silver? Naturally, there is no shortage, but Qi Lu has not been liked by the head of the Qi family since he was a child. So no one knows how much silver he has in his hand. Although he has his own fiefdom, it is not as good as the crown. He could not rule a fief. Therefore, even the palace concubines including Queen Song, no one knew that Qi Lu was actually quite wealthy.

Concubine Xiao couldn't help but think that if the Xie family married every daughter, it would be like marrying this concubine. It's different, and it's not too shabby.

If his family marries the Xie family, it will work.

In these years, it is rare to be willing to spend a lot of money to marry a daughter. What's more, his nephew is just a concubine of an elder brother. Marry a daughter from the Xie family. It's not like losing face for the Xiao family. What's more, if he really marries a girl from the Xie family, he will also have a relationship with Qi Lu. That kid is a person in the capital that everyone fears, but everyone wants to befriend. If you really and can Qi Law become irreversible friends, are you still worried about the future future?

Xie Ke quietly listened to several of the most noble women of the Great Wei Kingdom talking about Qi Lu in your words and my words.

Today's audience is really for Qi Lu. When she entered the palace, she saw the queen and several women in palace clothes, and thought that they would embarrass her. After all, since she married into the Qi family, no one seems to think that her background is worthy of Qi Lu, so it is nothing to be slandered.

Unexpectedly, they just looked at her.

Gently asked a few questions and ignored her...... That Xiao Guifei was obviously more interested in her sister than her.

Although Empress Song was gentle, thinking that she was the mother of Princess Hele, because of this, Xie Ke felt that Empress Song did not look so kind to her kind face. That Li Guifei had a quiet face, most of the time she just watched, and she didn't talk much.

But Xie Ke won't think she's a good match because of this.

Li Guifei, the mother of King Xiang.

In the last life, the king of Xiang finally ascended to the throne, which did not have the credit of this Li Guifei.

And the palace concubine sitting in the corner should be the mother of the fourth prince, King Ning. Xie Ke stood aside, trying to match the identities of several people with the memories in his mind.

While talking to Concubine Xiao and Concubine Li, Empress Song did not forget to call the palace maid to serve Xie Ke tea and snacks.

Xie Ke thanked him again.

Empress Song smiled, and got together with the Xiao family and the Li family to talk about their children...... The palace concubine who was sitting closest to Xie Ke raised her head and smiled at Xie Ke.

That's when it happened. There are palace people singing the newspaper ...... "Your Majesty has arrived at the ......" Xie Ke couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and let her stay with a few of the most honorable women of Dawei, she was really not used to it. Fortunately, Qi Lu's guess was accurate.

He said that the emperor would arrive in a while, and the emperor would really come.

Several palace concubines got up, and Queen Song was elected and walked towards the outside of the palace.

But after walking five or six steps, a bright yellow figure had already stepped into the hall. Everyone bows down, and the mountain shouts long live. Xie Ke followed behind everyone and knelt on the ground to take over. After living for two lifetimes and about to see the emperor, Xie Ke was naturally nervous, but when he thought that this person had secretly been ruthless to Qi Lu.

The awe of the emperor couldn't help but retreat a little.

The people of the whole Great Wei knew that the emperor favored the second son of the Qi family, but his bias was secretly poisoned by the second son of the Qi family.

Such a person, even as an emperor, is really difficult to make Xie Ke respect.

The emperor helped Empress Song up, and then took Empress Song's hand and walked to the throne.

After sitting, greet the rest of the people.

"All the concubines are here, let's get even. That must be the Xie family, right? ”

The emperor's voice fell, and before Xie Ke could respond, a familiar voice had already risen beside him...... It's Qi Lu. "Back to Your Majesty, yes. Her name is Xie Ke, and her name is Sister Bao. Sister Bao, don't hurry up and ask Your Majesty for peace. ”

Since Qi Lu said this, Xie Ke had to bow down again. "You kid, why do you suddenly know how to count etiquette? Okay, no need to be polite. Since Ah Lu calls you Sister Bao, I will also call you Sister Bao. Sister Bao, raise your head, let me see what kind of flower and moon look Alu's chosen little lady had, just now Aluke said to me that he doesn't want to leave home now. ”

The emperor's words sounded normal.

But Xie Ke's heart was tense when she heard this, and she vaguely felt that the emperor's seemingly steady voice seemed to be faintly angry.

Xie Ke naturally didn't dare to disobey the emperor's order, and slowly raised his head. I saw a man who looked to be in his thirties looking at her with blazing eyes, as if he was a little surprised by her appearance, and there was a frown between his eyebrows.

"That's what you chosen?" The emperor looked Xie Ke up and down. Then he asked lightly.

Qi Lu nodded.

"Yes, I saw her at a glance."

"Is it because of the way she is?" The emperor asked again, and Qi Lu nodded again. "Why did you suddenly go to Jian'an? Can you still see a girl raised in an inner house? "The last time I had a very unpleasant quarrel with my brother, I left the capital in a fit of anger. So I chose a random direction...... I don't want that but it's a post road to Jian'an. Later, my brother sent someone to chase after him...... I was injured and was taken in by the presiding officer of Daifukuzawa-ji Temple. At that time, Sister Bao also happened to pray for blessings at Daifukuzawa Temple. ”

Qi Lu explained the matter in a few words.

It seems that the emperor and empress and several palace concubines have long known the inside story of the Qi family, so everyone has a commonplace look at the fighting methods of the two brothers of the Qi family.

Even the emperor didn't ask a word.

Listening to Qi Lu's words, he just nodded. (To be continued.) )
