Chapter 239: Qingyuan's refusal

"Your Majesty, Concubine Xu Niangniang sent someone to say that she had prepared delicious food and wine, and asked if you could drink with her tonight?" The tip of his ear leaned to Qingyuan's side and asked in a whisper.

Qingyuan stopped what he was doing and turned his head to look at him: "Are you idle and panicked?" ”

As soon as the tip of his ears heard the emperor's words, he was clearly unwilling, so he dared to continue asking, so he hurriedly lowered his head and retreated to reply.

Chunfang waited outside the Qinzheng Palace, and when she saw the tip of her ears coming out, she hurriedly greeted her and curtsied, "Father-in-law, has the emperor agreed?" ”

The tip of the ear was replied by the emperor, and his face was a little ugly, "The emperor said that the state affairs are busy, and there is no time to go!" ”

Tsubaki Fang didn't continue to entangle, and left in response.

Xu Lingfeng didn't expect that she had prepared for an afternoon, but the emperor didn't plan to come at all, the news that Chunfang brought back made her feel terrible, and she felt even more panicked when she looked at the dishes on the table in the small kitchen.

But the cook in the small kitchen followed her and asked her, "Niangniang, when will these dishes be served?" ”

"End over? Where to go! The emperor didn't come, and what dishes he did were thrown to the palace! Xu Lingfeng raised his eyebrows in displeasure and reprimanded sharply.

"Yes, yes, the slave will be thrown away!" The cook was startled, and responded again and again, only then did she see Xu Lingfeng ease her mood and turn around and walk out of the small kitchen.

Liu Rumo didn't tell Sù Qingyuan why he wanted to take medicine, because it was impossible for her to explain to him, saying that the person she had placed next to his concubine had given her the news, so just in case, she made some pills in advance to prevent it, which would only expose herself too quickly. And she wasn't going to expose herself.

But even if she doesn't explain the reason, Qingyuan will take the medicine on time, because he still trusts Liu Rumo's medical skills very much, when he was in Qingyue Bay, he lost blood and was seriously injured, if it wasn't for Liu Rumo's treatment, maybe he would have died a long time ago. So for the medicine given by Liu Rumo. He obediently took it as prescribed.

When Tip Ear came to ask him, he was looking at the excerpt and was annoyed, so he glared at Tip Ear angrily. Immediately, I saw him go out with his neck bent, presumably to reply to Concubine Xu's words.

He didn't want to have anything to do with these women, which is why he sometimes went to sit and never stayed overnight. In the end, he still wants Liu Rumo from the bottom of his heart, and he doesn't even have the idea of replacing other women.

Especially listening to the reports from the tips of the ears. These three women plus a willow Ruxue, fighting openly and secretly, reminded him of his mother's situation in the harem, if it weren't for these unsightly dirty methods. The mother concubine would not have left him so early, and he did not have to be sent out of the palace at a young age, so he played tricks on these women. He was disgusted.

This Xu Concubine, according to the tip of the ear. She has been extremely active recently, and she is running diligently to Liu Ruxue, and she is chewing her tongue at Liu Concubine's side, such a woman is even more disagreeable to him, so when he heard that it was Concubine Xu, his originally irritable mood was even more messy.

"Your Majesty, if you are tired, will you rest for a while?" After the tip of his ears was reprimanded by Fang Cai, he even became cautious when he spoke, for fear of provoking the emperor to turn his face and scold him again.

Qingyuan shook his head slightly, finished writing the last few words under his hand, and then closed the fold and put it in the stack of batches, stretching his waist, "It's okay, you go and let the imperial dining room make a bowl of lotus seed soup, I suddenly want to eat some sweets!" ”

Sent the tip of his ear to get him food, Qingyuan slowly got up and walked around in the Qinzheng Palace, and sat for an afternoon, which really made him sit with a sore back and legs, thinking about his father's position for so many years, I am afraid that his body has long been overdrawn by heavy affairs.

"Your Majesty!" A woman's voice came in from outside the closed temple gate, and Qing Yuan was shaking his arm, who would come here to look for him at this time?

Without the permission of the emperor, the forbidden army guarding outside stopped Xu Lingfeng from letting her approach the palace gate, she had to shout inside, but she didn't expect to shout, and saw the palace door open.

Qingyuan stood inside the threshold, looking at the woman who was stopped by the forbidden army outside the door expressionlessly, and as soon as Xu Lingfeng saw the emperor coming out, he wanted to get rid of the forbidden army's blockade, but they didn't expect that they didn't get the emperor's permission and wouldn't let her go at all.

"What is the matter with Concubine Xu here?" Qingyuan asked in a detached tone as much as possible, he didn't intend to give them any chance to misunderstand them, so his tone was not as gentle as Liu Rumo, but Xu Lingfeng didn't seem to feel his cold attitude, greeted him with a smile, and looked at Qingyuan with a half-ashamed, half-resentful look, leaned over and saluted: "Your Majesty, the concubine personally prepared some delicacies for the emperor, thinking that even if the emperor is busy with state affairs, he should take care of the dragon body!" ”

Xu Lingfeng said, and put her hand behind her back and shook it towards Chunfang, signaling her to bring up the food box, and when Chunfang stepped forward, she took it and opened the lid of the food box to reveal half of it to signal Qingyuan to look, and looked at him pitifully with pleading in her mouth: "Your Majesty, look at what the concubine makes, these are all dishes you like to eat, in order to do this, the concubine also scratched her hand!" ”

To her surprise, Qingyuan not only did not take any interest in the meals she said she had cooked "personally", but also did not show the slightest pity for her hand injury.

At this time, the tip of the ear also came back with the food box, and Qing Yuan caught a glimpse of the figure of the tip of the ear standing not far away, and turned his head in his direction and said, "I asked you to get some food, why are you so slow?" ”

The tip of the ear received the emperor's eye signal, and suddenly understood, and hurriedly trotted over with the food box, first saluted Xu Lingfeng, and then followed Qingyuan's side, and replied: "Your Majesty, do it according to your orders, it's hot, do you use it now?" ”

Xu Lingfeng almost bit his silver teeth, this father-in-law in charge is really in the way, he doesn't come early or late, but when she came over with food, he came over with a food box, isn't this clearly going against her?

Qingyuan smiled and moved his gaze to Xu Lingfeng, and glanced apologetically at the food box in her hand, "Concubine Xu has a heart, but I have already ordered the imperial dining room to cook food, and I know Concubine Xu's intentions!" ”

What's the use of knowing your mind! Xu Lingfeng shouted in his heart, but he pretended to be indifferent in front of him, still curtsied, and replied: "In this case, the concubine will retire!" ”

After touching the ashes, the "carefully prepared" meal was still not delivered, Xu Lingfeng heard the sound of the door closing behind him, the smile on his face finally couldn't hold it down, and put the food box into Chunfang's hand, "Take it and pour it!" ”

It didn't take long for Liu Zhi to hear that Xu Lingfeng's invitation to pet was rejected instead of being refused, and he was laughing breathlessly in his room, shouldn't there be something wrong with this woman's brain? The emperor has never spent the night in any of their rooms, and on weekdays, he is free to come and sit during the day, and he can't stay for half an hour before leaving, she Xu Lingfeng will choose to invite the emperor to her place at night, and she is really shameless, no wonder the emperor will not allow it, everyone can guess what her intention is to invite the emperor to the past at night, how can the emperor go!

"Niangniang, you are really smart, Concubine Xu is a woman who has more than enough success and more than failure, fortunately Niangniang, you didn't answer her!" The cronies and maidservants beside him came over and said.

Liu Zhi bent her lips and smiled, poked her head with her finger, and said angrily: "It's not a small guts, dare to say that about Concubine Xu!" ”

But there was no hint of rebuke in her words, obviously thinking that what she said was right.

"But Niangniang, Madame said that we have to stand still, so when can we act?" She was also worried that if it was too late, what would happen if the emperor was snatched away by those three women? The women in this harem have a good life, but they all depend on the emperor.

Liu Zhi waved his hand and said, "What's the hurry?" Isn't there no movement on Xia Jinyan's side? Bengong didn't believe it, she would watch Concubine Liu's belly rise day by day! ”

Xia Jinyan entered the palace with her, as early as the night of the wedding, she was put together by Xia Jinyan without checking for a while, at that time, it was Xia Jinyan who first proposed to go out to see what was going on, and the result made them move their minds to go out, she thought about it later, Xia Jinyan first proposed to go out to see, but when she went out, she hid in the back.

This woman is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so she doesn't believe that Xia Jinyan really wants to be friends with Liu Ruxue, maybe she plans to use Liu Ruxue to get close to the emperor, or win the help of the national teacher, and then kick Liu Ruxue away.

"What Niangniang said is that we will follow Madame's wishes and stand still!"

The master and servant looked at each other and smiled, and said no more about it.

Turning to Xia Jinyan's side, she is indeed as Liu Zhi thought, she doesn't really want to be friends with Liu Ruxue, how can the women in this palace really become good sisters who talk about everything? It's just an alliance driven by interests, if she hadn't taken a fancy to Liu Ruxue and had a little effect, she wouldn't risk offending Xu Lingfeng and Liu Zhi to befriend her!

But the effect is still there, isn't it?

Although the emperor did not favor her, but counting the days, since they entered the palace, the emperor has come to her the most times, Liu Ruxue, this woman, looks like her eyes are above the top, and she doesn't put anyone in her eyes, she also sees her character, and never bends to meet her, but when she just entered the palace and no one is waiting, she brought someone over to help her, although Liu Ruxue did not express her gratitude afterwards, but she could see that Liu Ruxue's attitude towards her was much better than that of Liu Zhi and Xu Lingfeng.

I heard that Liu Ruxue had an imperial heir, so she was the first to bring a gift to congratulate, but Liu Ruxue didn't say anything, just held her belly and stroked it down, so that she really looked like she was showing off, but the words asked: "Sister Xia, do you think this child will be born safely, I'm a little afraid!"
