Chapter 77: The Queen is in the shadows

But the queen praised the prince of Zhenguo, and some people were not happy to listen to it, Princess Ning didn't think it was a big deal to put the unfinished melon seeds in her hand on the plate in front of her, and turned her face to look at the queen: "Erchen once heard that there is a very powerful dog called a rabbit?"

When people hear this name, they are messy, and no one can care about the name you give to the dog, but you call it a rabbit when it's a dog? Is this a bullying dog and won't quarrel with you?

Qiao Nianxi was stunned for a moment, didn't understand what Princess Ning meant, turned her face to see Princess Ning winking at her, and nodded: "Yes, the rabbit was brought back from Hanguang Temple by the courtiers." ¤八¤八¤Read¤Book,.☆.←o"

Princess Ning's eyes rolled around, and a touch of cunning came out of her lips: "Good dog, why do you have to name it Rabbit?"

This sentence seems to ask the words in everyone's hearts, yes, why is it called a rabbit?

Qiao Nianxi saw the banter in Princess Ning's eyes, and the corners of her lips subconsciously pursed to bring out a mysterious and unpredictable expression, and then she sighed as if she remembered something sad.

Speaking of which, it was also a little helpless, when the courtier was punished by the senior sister to chop wood, so hungry that she wanted to catch a rabbit to eat, but after looking for half of the valley, she didn't find the rabbit but met the dog, and she was also angry at the time, so she called it a rabbit in order to give herself a good time. ”

Qiao Nianxi said it easily, it should have been infinitely miserable, but everyone couldn't help but be happy when they listened.

It's just that if you are happy, you will be happy, and you will understand something, and the expression on your face will freeze in an instant, and you can't be happy anymore.

Qiao Nianxi is a cultivator, and in a sense she is not considered a monk, so as long as she is not in the temple, there is no requirement for the meat ring, but the point is not here, but she, the young lady of the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion, was punished in Hanguang Temple and starved!

The faces of everyone in the Qiao family are not good-looking, for ten years, except for sending this child to the temple, they haven't looked at it, let alone the queen, even they don't know what kind of life Qiao Nianxi is living!

"Oh, I really didn't expect this child to suffer so far from home at such a young age, it's really pitiful. ”

"Yes, it's obviously the identity of a young lady, but it's for the sake of starvation!"

The high-ranking nobles in the courtyard, many of whom were at odds with the Marquis of Zhenguo, and now that the queen was in front of her, she couldn't help but add fuel to the fire when she heard Qiao Nianxi's words.

The discussion of the crowd came into the ears of the Qiao family, as if they had brought needles, directly poking their eardrums, and listening to their heads swelling and their ears kept buzzing.

Qiao Hongyuan turned his face and glared at Qiao Nianxi, the green tendons on his forehead jumped suddenly, what kind of tragic experience do you have on such a day!

Qiao Nianxi didn't need to know what the expressions of the Qiao family were, and he didn't speak when he listened to everyone's discussions, he just stood on the side with his head down, looking aggrieved, looking even more pitiful!

Qiao Hongyuan and the old lady blushed with guilt in their hearts, but they couldn't say a word when they opened their mouths, but it was the Lin family who reacted first without the slightest guilt.

"Yes, I didn't know it before, but when I saw that she was getting thinner and thinner, I knew that the child was suffering, so the old lady urged her to pick her up as soon as possible!"

The Lin family is sleek, and the old lady and Qiao Hongyuan are good, even if she is talking nonsense with her eyes open, the old lady and Qiao Hongyuan can only cooperate!

The queen glanced at the Lin family with a sideways face and did not speak, only ten years did she know that this child was suffering?

However, after all, Qiao Nianxi is a matter of the Zhenguo Marquis's Mansion, and the queen is not painful or itchy, since the Lin family has given an explanation, she is not willing to delve into the idle matter.

Seeing that this matter was about to pass, Princess Ning didn't see enough excitement, her eyes rolled and she continued to fan the fire: "Speaking of which, I heard that the Marquis of Zhenguo Mansion sent his own son out to pray for the family, why did he choose to cherish it? Is it because no one is distressed when Aunt Zhang dies?"

Praying for blessings is just the external rhetoric of the Zhenguo Mansion, but since they have found a reason, Princess Ning just dragged this reason to their faces!

The old lady's body shook, she almost couldn't sit still, her old face was stretched like Changbai Mountain, but her lips trembled and she didn't dare to speak.

Princess Ning's words were like a quenched knife poking directly into the heart of the Marquis of Zhenguo, and the faces of the Qiao family were almost like pig's liver, almost making them gush out of a mouthful of old blood.

A thunder exploded again between the crowd, and it became lively again, but Qiao Nianxi leaned to the side as if he was a person who had nothing to do, and reached out to pick up a glass of wine.

was about to send it to her mouth, but she saw the elephant bone fan in Ye Xuanling's hand in the distance opposite pointing at her wine ding, Qiao Nianxi's long and thick eyelashes flickered instantly, and she understood, pursed her lips, and put down the wine ding a little helplessly.

This man is really lenient!

Lin had a fire in his heart and scurrying around in his body, but she couldn't afford to provoke her as a princess, so she could only hold it back, not only holding it, but also grinning with her cheeks: "How can this be, back then, the Xuanji Taoist gave orders to several children in the family, only because the life of Nian Xi was the most compatible with the Buddha, so we couldn't bear to send her away." ”

"Oh?

Gao Yun has always been nosy, but now listening to Lin's words, he couldn't help but open his mouth: "You find a Taoist priest to approve your life, but you will send your thoughts to the Buddha, this idea is really jumpy!"

Lin's face stiffened, and when he raised his eyes to look at Gao Yun's sharp eyes, his legs couldn't help but tremble, and the excuses he had thought of were stalked in his throat, and he opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to speak.

Just now, everyone felt a little reasonable when they listened to Lin's words, but now that they were refuted by Gao Yun, they instantly sensed that something was wrong, and their eyes changed when they looked at the Qiao family.

Buddhism and Taoism are originally two families, and the faith that leads sentient beings is brought to their own doors, which stupid Taoist priest who lacks heart and eyes will push people to Buddhism?

The atmosphere became tense for a while, and a touch of majesty floated out of the queen's eyes, and she stopped the topic: "Okay, the Fengyuan banquet was originally a time for everyone to gather, why did you ask about other people's family affairs?"

After saying that, the queen turned her face to look at Gao Yun and waved her hand.

Gao Yun paused, looked up at the queen, and at the moment when everyone didn't see it, his brows twisted up and quickly dispersed, but he didn't follow the queen's gesture to her side.

"The queen mother is angry!" Princess Ning saw that Gao Yun's face was not good, grabbed her hand, and turned her face to look at the queen with a little smile on her face: "The third lady appeared in front of everyone in the first year, and we also liked this little girl tightly, so we asked a few more questions." ”

Princess Ning spoke, holding Gao Yun's hand and gradually exerting force, this girl had a stubborn temper and couldn't rub the sand in her eyes, but this person was a queen after all, especially on such an occasion, she couldn't rush.

Gao Yun is not such a reckless person, he turned his face to look at Ye Xuanling, and saw that the corners of his lips hooked, the tense nerves around his body eased slightly, and the chill in his eyes also faded.

With the step of Princess Ning, although the queen was unhappy, she did not pursue it, waved her hand at the two of them to sit down, turned her face to Qiao Nianxi, and paused her face.

Things were originally caused by Qiao Nianxi, and everyone's fire was burning, but she was drinking fruit brew and watching the music and dance on the dance floor with a comfortable face, the whole thing had nothing to do with her, it was just a virtue with Ye Xuanling!

The queen was stunned again, looking at it, there was an indescribable deep meaning floating out of her eyes, this child who still looks calm and indifferent is not as simple as she imagined!

Here Qiao Nianxi was leisurely, Qiao Chuying's eyes in the distance were about to pop out, and when everyone was not paying attention, she approached Chunxue's ears beside her and whispered a few words to her.

Chunxue's face changed slightly, nodded, and quietly turned to leave, walking towards the backyard.

The song and dance continued, Qiao Nianxi saw this ancient music and dance for the first time, and still felt a little fresh, and really came to ancient times, only to know that everything here is very different from the TV again, maybe not because of the big difference, but that the Da Rui Dynasty has never appeared in the history of our country.

Fengyuan banquet is a way for the queen to get in close contact with the courtiers as the mother of the country, to put it bluntly, the emperor manages the courtiers, and the queen grasps the situation of the courtiers in a woman's way, so as to facilitate the future prince's choice of concubines and concubines, and it is also to understand the virtues of civil and military officials from the side.

Finally, when it came to Qiao Chuying's show, she changed her clothes early to prepare, and after the ceremonial officer reported, she walked lightly to the middle of the dance floor and bowed to the queen, the corners of her lips were slightly raised, and there was a shallow smile on her face.

"You are the eldest daughter of this Hou Mansion?" the queen lowered her eyes and glanced at Qiao Chuying, her mighty eyes added a touch of scrutiny, but it was impossible to see anger.

Qiao Chuying raised her head slightly and glanced at the queen, only when she was shocked by herself in her eyes, she was secretly happy in her heart, and hurriedly stepped forward Ying Ying said with a smile: "Back to the queen's mother, the courtier is the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Zhenguo, Qiao Chuying." ”

After saying a word, Qiao Chuying lowered her head slightly shyly, looked at the prince with a wave in her eyebrows, and saw that the prince was also looking at her, her face turned red, and she hurriedly lowered her face.

The queen lowered her eyes and stopped looking at her, holding a cup of tea in her hand, took a shallow sip to moisten her throat, and replied thoughtfully: "Oh...... Then you get started!"

This "oh", no appreciation, no exclamation, just a casual response, made Qiao Chuying's shallow smile freeze on her lips instantly.

This...... That's it?

When other daughters came up, why did the queen say a word or two of appreciation, but why was there only one "oh" left when she came here?

This is simply narrowing her face in front of everyone!

Qiao Chuying's head was swollen, and she clenched her back molars in private, but she didn't dare to show the dissatisfaction in her heart on her face, but she was angry, but the show still had to start, after all, this song Guangling Yin was practiced for the prince.

With a long sigh of relief, Qiao Chuying forcibly controlled her indignant emotions and stiffly saluted the queen: "Yes!"

Princess Ning sat on the side while munching melon seeds, watching the excitement, with a touch of weirdness in her squinted eyes, this good show is something to watch!

At the beginning, the queen originally selected the crown princess as the daughter of Cao Ge's hometown, but the prince didn't like to refuse directly, and now he expressed his affection for Qiao Chuying, the queen felt awkward, and naturally it was impossible to have a good face for Qiao Chuying.

Don't look at the queen who looks dignified and virtuous on weekdays, but in fact, she is small-minded!
