Chapter 186: Do You Dare to Move?
Fan Li pinched his fingers and remained silent.
The lowered head did not let Xiao Xiaoye see her expression.
Silence spread through the carriage, and an eerie embarrassment and indifference rippled in the air.
"Did you hear what Hongu said?"
Xiao Xiaoye looked at Fan Li's silent appearance, although he was well-behaved, it made people angry.
"The concubine knows."
Fan Li still didn't look up, but just answered sullenly.
Xiao Xiaoye restrained the anger on his face when he heard this, but he never saw the coldness and hatred in Fan Li's eyes.
The carriage swayed, and finally came to the palace, and the two came to Fengqi Palace one after the other.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Crown Princess, Niangniang has been waiting for you for a long time, come in quickly."
The grandmother waiting at the door is the queen's personal grandmother and her confidant.
Fan Li and Xiao Xiaoye nodded when they heard this, and then walked quickly towards the inner hall.
"The Queen Mother."
As soon as she stepped into the inner hall, the queen was lazily and elegantly fiddling with the tea in her hand.
Xiao Xiaoye shouted respectfully, and Fan Li behind him opened his mouth and did not shout.
The movement of the tea in the queen's hand paused slightly, and gently tugged at the red lips.
A pair of phoenix eyes were scrutinizing and sharp, staring directly at Fan Li, "The crown princess is still resentful of the palace?" ”
Hearing this, Xiao Xiaoye instinctively frowned, looked back at Fan Li, and was about to speak.
Fan Li stepped forward and said respectfully, "The queen mother laughed, but the concubine didn't." ”
Her voice was very soft and submissive, and she had a decent smile on her face, making it difficult to see what she really thought.
Hearing this, the queen gently put down the teacup and glanced at her with a smile, "That's good, and it will save the palace guilt." ”
In a word, Fan Li held back the grudge that reached his throat.
"What the queen mother said is that the concubines don't dare."
The queen glanced at the well-behaved Fan Li lightly, and felt a little more concerned in her heart, but she didn't continue to be embarrassed.
"Well, after a while, it will be the birthday of the Queen Mother, and it should have been the master of the palace to set up a banquet in the palace, but now the palace still thinks it is very appropriate for you to handle it."
Fan Li stood respectfully and obediently on the side, slightly surprised when he heard the queen's words, and then his face was happy.
"Thank you for the love of the queen mother, the concubine will definitely not live up to the expectations of the queen mother and hold this banquet properly."
The delicate and delicate face was filled with joy at this time, without the slightest abnormality, as if the pain of losing a child a few months ago no longer made her care.
The queen picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, her eyes observing none of the changes in Fan Li's expression.
"Do you have any plans?"
The red lips opened lightly, with a bit of coolness, the queen asked Fan Li, but her eyes were also cold.
"The concubine is not talented, and she dared to think of a way."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, the queen finally came to a trace of interest, and looked at Fan Li, whose eyes full of vicissitudes that had already been dyed in countless colors, flashing with a strange look.
Straightening up, the queen looked at Fan Li with a deferential look.
Fan Li, a smart and forbearant woman, she is right in front of her, does she dare to move?
The queen has always been disdainful and indifferent to Fan Li in her heart.
"Yes, the concubine thinks that the queen mother has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and she is worried about the trivial matters of the harem day and night, so it is better to go out of the palace, find a secluded and very safe manor, and hold a birthday banquet, which is regarded as a distraction. Here you can not only get in touch with the things and people outside the palace, but also feel the style of Kyoto. ”
Fan Li spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, his voice was soft and slow, and there was a touch of flattery.
The queen narrowed her eyes and said nothing...... Xiao Xiaoye seemed to be a little surprised now, but he also agreed with Fan Li's idea.
"Okay, according to your wishes."
