Chapter 232: Irretrievable

After listening to the Queen Mother's words, Liu Ke just lowered his head silently, as if he hadn't heard.

She and Rong Yi were married by the emperor, and at that time, the current queen mother was also present, if Xiao Xiuzhen wanted Rong Yi to go with her, she could only be small.

At this time, I only heard the Queen Mother say to Liu Ke faintly: "You are pregnant now, and you can't serve by the side of Chu Shizi, right?" ”

Liu Ke stood up, bowed and saluted, with a shallow smile on his face: "What the Queen Mother said is that now the concubines can't wait in front of the prince in order to protect the fetus, but when the concubines got married, they also brought a few beautiful girls, whether they were placed in the house or promoted to aunts, the concubines thought that these girls were all born to the Liu family, and it was not a grievance to let them be small." ”

Speaking of this, she looked at Xiao Xiuzhen, and then said with a smile: "Although the status of the prince is noble, but some women of the family will not be willing to be a little bit for him, so it is more suitable for these people to be concubines." ”

After listening to Liu Ke's words, the Queen Mother did not speak for a while.

Xiao Xiuzhen's face was even more red and white.

Although Liu Ke was not afraid of her entering the Chu Palace, if she could not be allowed to make trouble by Rong Yi's side, wouldn't it be once and for all.

"What a transparent person, your mother died early, if she saw you now, she would be gratified."

The Queen Mother smiled and groaned for a long time, and said something that Liu Ke and Xiao Xiuzhen couldn't understand.

After saying this, she smiled and said to Liu Ke: "You think about it a lot, Rong Yi is a monster in the royal family." Before, I didn't want to get married, if it weren't for that, the emperor wouldn't be so anxious to point you out to him. Speaking of this, she paused and continued: "I didn't expect that how many daughters from wealthy families he didn't want to accept you, and it was also your creation." ”

This has been made clear, Liu Ke is not a young lady from a family, and it also alludes to the fact that Rong Yi and Liu Ke may have some unknown things before they got married.

It's okay if these words come out of someone else's mouth, but they come out of the mouth of the Queen Mother. It's like putting a label on Liu Ke's head.

Liu Ke listened to this. There was a breath in her throat, and she felt depressed, but the Queen Mother who was sitting on it was someone she couldn't shake in her life. What's the gas. She can only bear it.

And. The Liu family is considered a wealthy family in Boling, and it is nothing when they arrive in the capital.

Liu Ke adjusted his mood slightly, and bent his knees slightly: "It can only be said that the concubine is destined for the prince." Some people have the intention to arrange flowers and flowers, and the concubines just unintentionally plant willows and willows, which is thanks to the Queen Mother's fulfillment. ”

When Xiao Xiuzhen heard this, she was stunned in anger, and when she reacted and was about to say something to fight back, the Queen Mother smiled and waved her hand.

"I didn't expect that Concubine Chu was really a character!"

This sentence is usually not a word of appreciation.

However, Liu Ke still replied: "Thank you Queen Mother for your compliment." ”

Hearing this, the Queen Mother laughed on her back, and after laughing, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said: "One of you two is smart, the other is stupid, but you are a natural pair." ”

Liu Ke heard this and knew that the word "smart" should be talking about himself, and the "stupid" was Xiao Xiuzhen.

Liu Ke couldn't help sneering in her heart, she didn't find anything related to the word "stupid" in Xiao Xiuzhen, but she couldn't help it if the Queen Mother had to say that.

"Concubine Chu, Xiuzhen is the niece and granddaughter of the Empress Dowager, although she was married before, but she is also a famous family, and now you are raising a baby and can't serve the son, although there is a girl around you, but how can the girl be compared with Xiuzhen, the mourning family will make the decision to let her follow you, you don't have to worry, wait for her to leave a man and half a woman and then give her a clear road."

No matter how obvious Liu Ke's resistance to this matter was, the Queen Mother still said this.

The corners of Liu Ke's mouth raised, and he said: "The concubine respectfully obeys the instructions of the queen mother, but I am afraid that the concubine alone will not be able to be the master in this matter, and I have to ask the opinion of the prince." ”

The Empress Dowager Zheng didn't expect Liu Ke to block the rungs just now, but at this time she agreed again.

The Queen Mother couldn't help laughing, and said in her heart: It seems that she is a person who understands current affairs.

Xiao Xiuzhen looks quite good, although she is not as good as Liu Ke, she can be regarded as a rare beauty, otherwise Rong Yi would not have had a dewy marriage with her back then.

Men are all lustful, she doesn't believe it, Liu Ke is pregnant in October, and Rong Yi can really not be fishy at all in these ten months.

As long as Liu Ke doesn't have a temperament, Rong Yi will definitely not push out the beautiful girl who was sent to the door again.

However, when the Queen Mother saw that Liu Ke was so calm and relaxed, so calm and confident, she was a little puzzled.

"In that case, come here, see where Chu Shizi is now, call him here, and say I want to ask him a word."

A maid on duty at the door heard this and hurriedly went out to find Rong Yi.

At this stall, Liu Ke raised her eyes and glanced at Xiao Xiuzhen, and saw her with her head down, her face full of shyness, which showed that she thought of Rong Yi's side in her heart, even if she was small.

At this time, Liu Ke couldn't help but wonder if Rong Yi's reputation was so unbearable in the past, there was still a woman who was so desperate for him.

Liu Ke was thinking nonsense, and Rong Yi had already walked in from outside.

As soon as he entered the door, Rong Yi's eyes fell on Liu Ke's body, but he shouted in his mouth: "Rong Yi greets the Queen Mother, and wishes the Queen Mother a long and healthy life." ”

"Get up!" When the Queen Mother saw Rong Yi coming in, she hurriedly smiled.

Rong Yi stood up and naturally stood beside Liu Ke.

"I asked you to come, not for anything else, the mourning family just wants to ask you, your daughter-in-law is raising a baby now, and now there is someone in your house to serve you?" The Queen Mother did not immediately tell what Xiao Xiuzhen pointed out to him.

After Rong Yi listened to the words, his eyes looked at Liu Ke, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

At this time, Liu Ke just lowered his head slightly and ignored Rong Yi.

Rong Yi looked at Xiao Xiuzhen, who raised his head slightly and looked at him, and instantly understood what the queen of heaven meant, so he smiled and said, "There are many people waiting, thank you for the Queen Mother's concern." ”

"Really? Don't coax me, aren't you just a few girls from the Liu family, are there other people besides the girls? Since the Queen Mother has made up her mind to send Xiao Xiuzhen to the Chu Palace, she naturally has something to say.

When Rong Yi heard this, he hurriedly blocked the words behind the Queen Mother, waved his hand and said: "Now that the enemy is present, he only wants to help the emperor solve problems, and what do you want so many people to do, a few are enough." ”

The Queen Mother smiled coldly and said: "The Yan thief has lived in a barren place for a long time, and he is bold and reckless, how can he be the opponent of the imperial court, it is a matter of time before he is taken over, you don't have to worry, you can give the royal family a branch is also a great credit to you, Liu's pregnancy, it just so happens that the Empress Dowager asked me to place her niece and granddaughter Xiao, you will bring her back, is it not the Empress Dowager's niece and granddaughter who has insulted you." ”

Although what the Queen Mother said was categorical, and she also pulled the Queen Mother, Rong Yi has never eaten this set, the emperor had no choice but to do anything about him before, and the current Queen Mother naturally can't let him give in.

Rong Yi arched his hand and said: "Queen Mother, there are rules in my dynasty, a man can only take a concubine if he has no children at forty, and although the minister is a descendant of the royal family, he does not dare to break the rules without authorization." ”

The Queen Mother was choked up when she heard this, but she didn't expect Rong Yi to really refute her words in person.

Xiao Xiuzhen, who already felt that this matter had been completed, looked up at him with a face full of disbelief.

After Liu Ke listened to Rong Yi's words, he still lowered his head and didn't speak.

"The rules are set by people, and if there is a mourning family, who dares to say anything that cannot be done, you just have to lead someone back, the mourning family is tired and wants to rest."

Rong Yi didn't answer the Queen Mother's words, but raised his head and looked at Xiao Xiuzhen and said, "Wu Xiao, your husband Wu Shirong is still here, how can he follow others?" I have also heard of women who do not abide by women's morals, but I have never heard of such a blatant unobservant woman like you, and it has made the Queen Mother infamy, I really don't know what your original intention is? ”

When Xiao Xiuzhen heard this, her eyes were full of tears, and she said hesitantly: "Wu Shirong has been missing for many years, and even his mother-in-law at home has already died as him. ”

"When he dies, that is not dead, even so, whether you are divorced by the Wu family or separated from the Wu family, if so, you are not a member of the Wu family." After Xiao Xiuzhen found Liu Ke and made trouble last time, Rong Yi found Xiao Xiuzhen's bottom clearly, knowing that she did not break off her relationship with the Wu family, and she didn't know how she got in touch with the Queen Mother.

For a while, Xiao Xiuzhen was speechless by Rong Yi's words, and just hid her face and cried.

"Okay, she was a hard-working person, but why is she miserable, it's not because of you!" After listening to Rong Yi's words, the Queen Mother said sharply, "If you hadn't ruined her reputation, why would she marry a businessman, and now you still have the face to accuse her of not abiding by women's morals here, who made her disrupt women's morals first?" ”

At this time, the needle drop in the atrium of the entire Cining Palace could be heard.

For a while, Rong Yi and Liu Ke didn't speak, and Xiao Xiuzhen stopped crying.

But Rong Yi never let go and took Xiao Xiuzhen back.

The Queen Mother only turned to Liu Ke and said: "Liu, don't say that you married into the royal family, you are the wife of an ordinary official family, and you don't stand in the way of the family's grandfather, this time you will be virtuous once and bring Xiuzhen back." ”

After the Queen Mother said this, she got up and went to the back room on the couch.

Liu Ke saw that this matter was irreparable, so he gave a big salute and replied: "Yes, the concubine obeys the order." ”

Rong Yi glared at Liu Ke and wanted to speak, but Liu Ke smiled and waved his hand at him and said, "It's just one more person to eat, and our Chu Wangfu can still take care of this meal." After speaking, he said to Xiao Xiuzhen: "Wu Xiao, since the Queen Mother has a will, you can go with us." ”

After Xiao Xiuzhen heard this, she couldn't help but look at Liu Ke.

When she met Liu Ke's fierce gaze, she couldn't help but feel cold.

Rong Yi smiled when he saw this, suddenly remembered something, reached out and shook Liu Ke's hand and said, "Let's go." (To be continued......)
