Chapter 11: Arrogance
"Li'er, Yue'er has been delicate since she was a child, and locking her in the violent room is equivalent to killing her!" At this moment, the queen came back to her senses and said to Han Li. There was a hint of panic and pleading in his tone.
"Queen Mother, Yue'er's arrogant personality has to suffer a little, and I will order that no one will hurt her. This is a small punishment and a big commandment. However, if she wants to let her out, she must marry the Third Emperor Brother. Han Li's tone softened on the surface, but in fact it was forcing them to a dead end.
"This..."The queen wanted to speak, but Han Li interrupted her, "Queen Mother, there is no need to say more, if there are other words, you should tell your father directly." Xiao Lizi, let the next batch of show girls come in. ”
At this point, the queen knew that there was no way to maneuver, although she was annoyed by Teng Tianyue's recklessness and willfulness, but she resented Gong Hanli's arbitrariness more in her heart. And he dared to use the emperor to suppress her, which is really hateful.
The next batch of show girls came in soon, and the next draft went very smoothly, but in the next process, Han Li didn't say a word. When the sun sets, all the primaries today have ended, and there are sixty-four people selected, except for Teng Tianyue, all the girls written on the paper have been selected.
After sitting for a day, it was indeed very tiring, Han Li left with the servants, and before he had gone far, a little eunuch hurriedly ran over, stopped in front of them, knelt down towards Han Li, and said in his mouth: "Fourth princess, the emperor summoned you." Han Li motioned for the little eunuch to get up and prepare to go with him, and a group of servants were also ready to accompany him, but the little eunuch stopped them and said that the emperor had only summoned Han Li alone.
He already knew it in his heart, and Han Li ordered them to go back to the palace first, and followed the little eunuch to Linzhao Palace alone.

"See Father." At this moment, the room was empty, only their father and daughter were left, and Han Li knelt down to Gong Xuanqi and saluted.
In the past, Gong Xuanqi was never reluctant to let Han Li kneel, but today he didn't stop it and let Han Li kneel. and knelt for a long time before he said lightly: "Li'er, when your mother died, let me take care of you and her sister." You are so rude to your mother today, how can I be good? Although he said how to do it, there was no hint of inquiry in his tone.
Han Li raised his head and looked at him expressionlessly. He shot an incomparably fierce gaze at her. But she didn't have the slightest fear, and the corners of her mouth pulled a sneer in response.
Gong Xuanqi strode forward and helped Han Li, who was kneeling in front of him. took her into his arms and said, "This is my Gong Xuanqi's daughter!" I have decided not to see the queen for this time, and this matter is up to you. ”
In his arms, she smiled triumphantly, and as soon as his claim changed, she knew she was sure of victory.

"Smack." The tea that the maid green branch brought to the queen was beaten by the queen with a palm, and it fell to the ground fiercely, splashing a string of hot beads, and the delicate little hand of the green branch was scalded with a few pieces of dazzling red, but he still didn't dare to say a word. Since returning from the draft, the queen's face has been very bad, and after listening to what happened to Sister Bissy, she knew that the queen was angry. At this moment, I served tea by myself, so that the queen could vent. Where do you dare to complain about anything.
The queen caught a glimpse of the little girl covering her wound, her eyes were full of tears, but she didn't dare to say a word, and half of her anger disappeared at this moment, so she said to her softly: "You go down to take the medicine first, and let Qin Rou bring me tea." "Yes." The green branch answered, and bowed out.
The queen has four close maids, namely Yancao, Bisi, Qin Rou, and Green Branch. And Qin Rou is her most trusted and powerful maid. Qin Rou quickly brought a cup of new tea. The queen took a sip of tea and sighed faintly: "She has been submissive to me for many years, why is she suddenly threatening me today!?" Now even the emperor refuses to see me, and the emperor always protects her. At the end of the words, the woman's sadness was revealed.
Qin Rou naturally knew who she was referring to in the queen's mouth, and said: "Queen Mother, this year's draft is reopened, and she is afraid that her position will be threatened, so she will be so nervous. Miss Tianyue didn't like her since she was a child, and she was very close to you. If Miss Tianyue enters the palace and is favored by the emperor, then you will get a capable assistant, and she will have one more enemy. Qin Rou's analysis hit the nail on the head.
The queen nodded and said, "If the emperor doesn't see me, it means that he supports her." Hmph, I'm going to see if she can beat me! ”
Qin Rou said: "Queen Mother, although she is only thirteen years old, you must not underestimate her!" "I've never underestimated her, and she's a thousand times harder to deal with than her mother." The queen's faint tone drifted through the night.
