Chapter 435: Show Weakness

Although they also knew in their hearts that there must be many twists and turns hidden in this matter, those things had nothing to do with them, so there was no need to think about it, it was better to go with the flow and quietly watch from the wall.

And the relatives of Imperial Concubine Li's family have chills down their backs, holding cold and sticky sweat in their palms, they look at Imperial Concubine Li with a look of hatred that is not made of steel, and secretly spit in their hearts How can the other party be so stupid, obviously this matter can be exposed as long as it shows weakness, but Imperial Concubine Li chose the most stupid method--- that is is to defend herself.

And the ability to argue is really terrible, and the words have made Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine take advantage of many loopholes. Hearing the purple-clothed maid's explanation, many noble ladies and daughters at the banquet whispered one after another, and there was a lot of sarcasm between words.

When Princess Li's mother heard the sarcastic remarks around her and the strange eyes cast by everyone, she only felt that her whole heart was trembling with anger from Princess Li's stupid behavior, and she raised her eyes to look at Her Royal Highness the graceful and luxurious, and her eyes showed pleading eyes. She knew that if she allowed her daughter to continue to talk nonsense, then the entire family would inevitably leave an impression in the king's heart.

What's more, it was the Empress Li who lost her honor at the palace banquet first, even if she was reprimanded and punished by the king and Her Royal Highness the Queen, it was nothing, and the princess still had the support of her family, and her life in the palace would not be too sad, but she couldn't bear the impatient temperament, and insisted on competing with Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine.

Her Royal Highness the Queen received the pleading gaze of Empress Li's mother, and naturally knew what the other party's plea was in her heart, she lowered her eyes and stared at Empress Li, who was gritting her teeth and glaring at the purple-clothed maid, and then glanced at the imperial concubine who was still elegant and calm, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in her heart.

If the imperial concubine can have the background of the imperial concubine, I am afraid that there will be no other concubines in the harem who can make waves, because compared to Her Royal Highness the queen's own temperament, the temperament of the imperial concubine is obviously more suitable for managing the harem. Her Royal Highness has only learned to combine grace and power, but the imperial concubine knows how to use everyone, and she will never be soft when she should be ruthless, and she can maintain an elegant and dignified image while being ruthless.

This point, even Her Royal Highness the Queen is not as good as herself.

After listening to the explanation of the purple-clothed maid, Her Royal Highness couldn't see any expression on her elegant and beautiful face, but asked lightly: "In this case, where did the 'offense' in the mouth of the Empress Li come from?" ”

This sentence is undoubtedly giving Concubine Li a step down, but this step leads to ...... It's not a road to redemption, but an abyss of nightmares that she has carefully prepared for Princess Li.

But no one else would know this, such as the mother of the Empress Li, the beautiful woman with a good face, when she heard Her Royal Highness ask such an inquiry, she knew that her plea had played a role. Sure enough, Her Royal Highness the Queen is magnanimous and benevolent, as long as Concubine Li's brain is not rusty, she should know what to do next, instead of messing around like she is now, smearing herself and her family's image.

Thinking about this, she stared at her daughter --- Li Imperial Princess, and frantically prayed in her heart that her daughter would not ask for a momentary quick tongue, and dragged down the entire family. After all, today's matter is not big, but it is not small, but as long as Princess Li learns to forbearance and show weakness and take a step back appropriately, then the emperor and queen will not pursue it too much.

Otherwise, if you punish the princess at the palace feast, you will also lose the dignity of the entire royal family. The King and His Royal Highness the Queen naturally did not joke about the majesty of the entire royal family, so as long as they saw that Princess Li showed weakness and retreated, they would naturally expose the matter and never mention it again.

Imperial Concubine Li was about to continue to argue fiercely and answer Her Royal Highness's questions, but for some reason, a deep and extremely cold chill suddenly spread on her back. She glanced at her mother with a feeling in her heart, only to see that her mother was staring at her with a pleading and angry gaze, which made the princess swallow the fierce argument in an instant under the unsteadiness of her heart.

The amber liquor poured slightly in the carved marigold, almost spilling onto the brocade dark-patterned table runner, and Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine in a gorgeous crown took in the interaction between the two of them, and she looked up at the Empress thoughtfully, and then lowered her eyebrows and played with the wine marigold between her slender jade fingers.

Although she still doesn't know what Her Royal Highness the Queen is going to do, Princess Li ...... today. There must be some price, otherwise she has been arranging this chess game for a long time in vain?

Thinking about this, the imperial concubine smiled very coldly, she slowly raised her eyes and glanced at the imperial concubine with a proud expression, the peacock feather fan swayed, but in a few seconds, she changed her expression again, and changed into a --- elegant and calm expression that the nobles and nobles are familiar with and often see.

Looking at the change in the expression of Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine, Nan Zuisheng felt quite interesting, although she still didn't know what the next plan was, but the two of Imperial Concubine Li and Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine were undoubtedly the two most critical chess pieces in the entire plan, and the next ...... It depends on the performance of Princess Li, I hope she can be smarter, so that she may be able to keep the family behind her.

Nan Fusheng had never been interested in the battles in the royal family of Sakura Country, so he glanced at the already cold delicacies of the mountains and seas on the table, and silently poured himself a glass of wine. The moment he raised his eyes, he found that Xu Shen was staring at Nan Zuisheng beside him with an extremely strange and enthusiastic gaze, that kind of gaze Nan Fusheng was too familiar, it was the predatory gaze that the man couldn't help but reveal after meeting the woman he liked.

What does this hairy kid want to do?

Are you going to take the little girl from me?

The deep and gorgeous phoenix eyes were precipitated with deep and dark light and shadow, Nan Fusheng stared at Xu Shen coldly, and finally hooked his lips and smiled mockingly. Although the Royal Highness the Crown Prince in front of him is indeed extraordinary, and he is talented and intelligent, and he is not lost to himself back then, but that was also back then.

Now Nan Fusheng has grown into a king, Xu Shen is just a lion cub in his eyes, and Xu Shen is still far from being an unfathomable existence like his father. Besides, now Nan Fusheng and Nan Zuisheng have already had a heart-to-heart with each other, and it is impossible to respond to Xu Shen's feelings at all, and there are some other things that he is still investigating secretly, I hope that those things are better not to be related to Xu Shen, otherwise......

The handsome and innocent face was impregnated with a cruel and murderous expression, but such a bloodthirsty and terrifying expression only appeared for a short moment, and Nan Fusheng returned to a gentle expression, and lowered his eyes to look at Nan Zuisheng who was interested in watching the show.

In view of Xu Shen's eyeing of Nan Zuisheng, Nan Fusheng decided to take the little guy back to Xuanguo tomorrow and return to China tomorrow! He didn't want his little darling to be stared at by Xu Shen all day long, and to be stared at by that kind of predatory and possessive gaze, which he thought was a kind of taintment on Nan Zuisheng.

Nan Zuisheng belongs to him Nan Fusheng alone, and he always will be.

Seeing Nan Fusheng's cold and terrifying eyes, Xu Shen raised his eyebrows slightly, he had never bothered to pay attention to this kind of demonstration, but because it involved Nan Zuisheng, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gave others a provocative gaze for the first time in his life. Although Xu Shen didn't have any confidence to provoke the other party, if he watched Nan Fusheng and Nan Zuisheng fall in love...... He simply could not guarantee that he would be indifferent.

He really regretted it...... used Nan Zuisheng to exchange for the chips and benefits he wanted, but there was no turning back when he opened the bow, and he had no way to retreat, no.

The gorgeous face revealed a kind of sorrow and sorrow, Xu Shen held the carved marigold and drank it all down elegantly, I don't know why, it was clear that the wine and wine contained in the marigold were extremely mellow, but Xu Shen tasted a bitter taste in it.

The bitter taste spread not only between his lips and teeth, but also through his throat and stomach and in his internal organs, making him feel very sad and sad. Before he met Nan Zuisheng, Xu Shen thought that he didn't need feelings in this life, he just needed to learn how to govern the country and control his courtiers. But after meeting Nan Zuisheng, Xu Shen suddenly felt that he needed ......

It needs to be emotional.

I need a wife that I love deeply and will love deeply in the future. Otherwise, even if he succeeds to the throne and becomes the next generation of Sakura monarchs, but there is no power and country, but there is no lover to share and protect, how empty and lonely it must be.

One wrong step and one wrong step, maybe there is really no fate between him and Nan Zuisheng.

At the same time, in response to Her Royal Highness's inquiry, Concubine Li rarely quieted down, and her mother's pleading and sad eyes involuntarily appeared in her mind. She knew that this was a warning given to her by her mother, I am afraid that today's incident is not just a malicious provocation by Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine, could it be that there is some conspiracy hidden in it?

For a moment, she only felt that her mind was getting more and more chaotic, but she had to force herself to calm down.

Imperial Concubine Li raised her eyes to look at the monarch, only to see that the monarch had been watching her for some time, the starry eyes under the sword eyebrows were deep and dark, and there was no trace of expression on her gorgeous face, but it gave Imperial Concubine Li a sense of crisis that the king hated herself. Under the king's cold gaze, she instantly shook, and then knelt down without hesitation, her posture was supple and humble.

"Her Royal Highness the Queen, maybe the concubine is too careful, because the purple-clothed maid is holding the wine, and she is really close to the concubine, so the concubine is a little flustered, and subconsciously has the illusion that she wants to hurt me, this is the concubine's mistake, and please punish His Royal Highness." As she spoke, Imperial Concubine Li lowered her eyelashes and tried to brew tears, she controlled the proportion of her tears, lest she be pitiful, but crying with a dirty face.

Seeing that the Imperial Concubine Li suddenly knelt on her knees, showing a weak and tearful posture, Her Royal Highness instantly clenched her slender jade fingers, and the peacock feathers that flashed blue were fiercely held between her fingers.

During the banquet, the relatives of Princess Li's family breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the situation. Fortunately, Imperial Concubine Li was not too stupid, and knew that she would bow her head to show weakness at a critical moment, otherwise they would look at the king's obscure eyes...... I'm afraid it's hard to get a good deal out of it.

Xu Shen raised his eyes and glanced at Her Royal Highness the Empress, and his queen mother tapped her chin imperceptibly.

It's time to get your hands dirty.
