Chapter 97: Enter the Palace

Lu Ruoqing got into the carriage sent by the palace, stuffed a piece of gold for the leading eunuch, and asked with a smile: "Father-in-law, do you know what the lady is looking for me?" This is the first time I entered the palace, I was terrified, and I was tired of my father-in-law's advice. ”

The eunuch looked at the face of the gold, and was polite.

Approaching the window, he whispered, "It's about His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes." ”

"Thank you, father-in-law." Lu Ruoqing was thoughtful.

Xiao Shaoxuan was injured as a prince, and King Huan was involved, Concubine Su Shu would definitely ask about it. And King Huan can hide the truth from the outside world, but he won't hide it from Concubine Su Shu, he should have said it truthfully.

As one of the real parties, Su Shufei wanted to ask, but it was reasonable.

Moreover, Concubine Su didn't want her to marry King Huan.

If she can ask her to have something to do with Xiao Shaoxuan, she will naturally have a legitimate excuse to refuse this family business.

However, outsiders don't know the inside story.

For example, like Yun Taijun, he mistakenly thought that Concubine Su was looking for her to enter the palace to talk about the marriage between King Huan and her, but she would never have thought that Concubine Su's true intention was actually to refuse marriage.

Lu Ruoqing has a rough spectrum in her heart.

Wait a minute, what might be asked by Concubine Su Shu, how to answer, and silently consider the words in her heart to avoid a fork.

Not long after, the carriage arrived at the side gate of the palace.

Lu Ruoqing got out of the car in a proper manner.

It was almost dusk, the sun was setting, the twilight was gorgeous, and the glow of the sun was high in the sky, covering the palace with a faint layer of gold.

The beautiful glazed bricks and tiles, and the continuous crimson palace walls, look particularly solemn.

Every ten or so steps, a palace man stood against the wall.

Lu Ruoqing followed the eunuch who led the way, and moved forward silently, silently all the way.

When she arrived at the gate of the Jade Cui Palace where Concubine Su Shu lived, she changed to a palace maid to guide the way, and she walked so far that Lu Ruoqing felt weak under her feet before stopping.

The palace maid at the gate of the inner hall said, "Qi Yu Concubine Niangniang, the eldest lady of the Lu family has arrived." ”

Concubine Su said lightly: "Come in." ”

Lu Ruoqing couldn't hear Concubine Su's emotions, but she understood that this didn't mean that Concubine Su didn't dislike her. It's probably because King Huan is also inside, so he wants to pretend to be loving.

Sure enough, as soon as I entered the inner hall, I saw the figure of King Huan.

Lu Ruoqing was inconvenient to look at it carefully, let alone make eye contact, so she immediately lifted her skirt and said, "Say hello to Concubine Shu, and ask His Royal Highness King Huan." ”

Concubine Su said lightly: "Excuse me." ”

Lu Ruoqing looked up, but was taken aback.

Xiao Shaoxuan wore a dark gold robe and lay on the side, but he didn't look carefully and didn't notice it.

She was stunned, and hurriedly said, "I've seen His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes." ”

Xiao Shaoxuan said "um" and didn't say much.

King Huan also showed great detachment.

Lu Ruoqing felt that the atmosphere was a little weird.

I wondered in my heart, could it be Xiao Shaoxuan quarreling with King Huan and Concubine Su Shu? Otherwise, how can one or two of them be cold, like others owe money and don't pay it back.

Concubine Su sat in the chair and asked, "Regarding Helan Yuan, I won't talk about those nonsense to the outside world." Horizontal and vertical is for your reputation, covering up one or two, coaxing outsiders, and you now tell the truth one by one. ”

Lu Ruoqing didn't look up.

I didn't have to look at Xiao Shaoxuan, but instead asked Su Shufei to think that she was looking at each other, and she misunderstood.

She replied calmly: "Originally, I went to the British Mansion to talk to Nian Ying, and after speaking, I naturally went home." As a result, when I was halfway there, someone pretended to be a subordinate of King Huan's mansion and said that His Royal Highness King Huan invited me to go to the mansion to enjoy the plums. ”

Concubine Su snorted softly, "So, you went?" ”

---- tone was very dissatisfied.

Lu Ruoqing understood in her heart that Concubine Su felt that she was seducing King Huan, and she felt annoyed when she looked at her.

Therefore, there was no excuse, and he continued: "Then the carriage went away for a while, and I gradually felt that something was not right, and there was no more noise from the hawkers around, so I lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at it, and found that it was out of the city. ”

Concubine Su was already dissatisfied with her, and she deliberately avoided the topic just now, so she became more and more unhappy in her heart.

immediately sneered, "You're too confused, aren't you?" I didn't know that I was tricked out of the city. ”

Lu Ruoqing knew that no matter how she argued, Concubine Su Shufei was just as dissatisfied.

Therefore, neither justification nor the slightest grievance is revealed.

Instead, he simply admitted, "What Niangniang said is that I am indeed a little confused." ”

When she said this, Concubine Su Shu was not easy to scold, turned her head to look at her son, her eyes obviously showed distress, and she couldn't help but secretly scolded "fox spirit".

Lu Ruoqing said again: "When those three gangsters saw that I found out, they kicked my family's car driver." Later, I heard from my mother-in-law that she went to King Huan's mansion to report the news, so His Royal Highness King Huan could come to save me in time. ”

Concubine Su glanced at her son, and her tone was indistinguishable, "You are really timely rain." ”

King Huan replied: "After all, Miss Lu's net worth and life are at stake, as well as her reputation is innocent, so her son naturally can't die without saving her, so it can be regarded as a good deed every day." ”

Concubine Su glared at him, but didn't say much.

turned his eyes to look at Lu Ruoqing coldly, and asked in an unkind tone, "What about His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes?" And how did he find you? You have to think clearly, don't be wrong. ”

Lu Ruoqing replied: "It's also a coincidence, I went to talk to Nian Ying that day, and it happened that His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes went to find Nian Xi, so when I left the British Mansion, I was seen by His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes." ”

Concubine Su originally wanted to grab her handle, but she didn't expect that there was no flaw in the whole question.

I couldn't help but ask: "Before leaving the British Mansion, did you meet the Nine Emperor Princes?" Did you talk to him? ”

"See." Lu Ruoqing was generous and replied: "I finished talking to Nian Ying and Nian Xi, and I was just about to leave, when I met His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes looking for Nian Xi, so I said hello. ”

She has a quick mind, and her words are not leaky, and there is not a single fault at all.

Concubine Su secretly clenched her fists.

This vixen is too difficult! Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to stay with the son.

Xiao Shaoxuan chuckled beside him, "Concubine Niangniang, it's not rude to say hello when you meet, right?" If Miss Lu saw me, she would leave without saying hello, but it would not be like a word. ”

Concubine Su was annoyed, but it was inconvenient to attack right now.

Xiao Shaoxuan said lazily: "Concubine Niangniang, can you believe my words now?" I said, I went to discuss things with Nian Xi that day, and it just happened to be Miss Lu. ”

Concubine Su sneered, "Really? When you meet, you chase it out? ”

Xiao Shaoxuan immediately asked, "What's the matter?" As long as the six emperor brothers heroes save the beauty, I won't let it? Could it be because the sixth emperor brother is the biological son of Concubine Shu, so he is eccentric. ”

Concubine Su Shu said angrily: "You are presumptuous! ”

Xiao Shaoxuan frowned and sizzled, "Ouch, the wound on my chest hurts so badly." Lady Niangniang, can you be gentle when you talk to a seriously injured patient? ”

Concubine Su said angrily: "It's you who said nothing!" ”

Behind the screen, a low voice suddenly sounded, "Don't make any noise." ”

Lu Ruoqing was taken aback.

There are still people behind the screen?! Who?

But in an instant, she understood,............ It's the Emperor! Except for the emperor, no one dared to eavesdrop behind the screen, or even interrupt Concubine Su's words.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw a man in a bright yellow dragon robe come out.

Everyone bowed in unison.

Lu Ruoqing knelt down and said, "The courtiers pay a visit to the emperor Jin'an." ”

The emperor sat down in the middle position, raised his hand at Concubine Su Shu and the others, and then looked at Lu Ruoqing with a scrutinizing gaze, paused for a moment, and then opened the golden mouth, "No courtesy!" Keep your head up. ”

He wanted to see how beautiful the woman who attracted the competition of his two sons was?

Lu Ruoqing slowly raised her head.

She faced the emperor, her eyes drooped, and she didn't dare to look directly to show respect.

A look of amazement flashed in the emperor's eyes!

He had already prepared in his heart that the woman who could attract the competition of the two best sons would definitely be crowned with beauty.

However, Lu Ruoqing's appearance is more beautiful than she imagined!

She was dressed in a green dress and white dress, and her jade face reflected the sunset, like a clear lotus that had just come out of the water.

You don't have to look closely, it's also a peerless beauty.

The Emperor was slightly silent.

Concubine Su Shu was a little nervous, for fear that the emperor would fall in love with Lu Ruoqing or casually marry her son.

immediately asked Lu Ruoqing: "You are in danger, do you know who is behind the scenes?" ”

Lu Ruoqing replied: "I didn't know about it originally, but then He Lanyuan came to my house to make a fuss, and she kept saying that I wouldn't return home at night." When she saw me, she asked me if I was a human or a ghost, and she thought it was her. ”

The emperor suddenly spoke: "Why did He Lanyuan want to harm you like this? ”

Lu Ruoqing was a little nervous in her heart, but she still replied generously: "He Lanyuan has been missing for more than ten days before, and she has always said that it was my secret hand, so she resents me." ”

King Huan's eyelids jumped slightly, and his mood was complicated.

He Lanyuan was kidnapped, but in fact, he sent someone to do it, but he didn't expect it to backfire on Lu Ruoqing.

If Xiao Shaoxuan hadn't arrived in time to save her, the consequences would have been unimaginable!

In King Huan's heart, he is really grateful and resentful of Xiao Shaoxuan, grateful to him for saving Lu Ruoqing, and resentful of him for stealing the limelight of heroes and saving beauty!

Lu Ruoqing must be very grateful in her heart.

Wouldn't that woman be grateful to her life-saving benefactor? In particular, the life-saving benefactor is young and handsome, high-ranking and powerful, and he is also a famous general prince.

was thinking wildly, when he heard the emperor's loud voice, "Lu Ruoqing, are you guilty?!" ”

King Huan and Xiao Shaoxuan were both surprised.

Concubine Su Shu was also surprised, but soon her eyes showed joy, she wished that the emperor would ask Lu Ruoqing to blame.

Lu Ruoqing hurriedly knelt down.

The emperor said coldly: "Why ......, I don't know what I did wrong?" ”

Lu Ruoqing hesitated for a moment.

She can pretend to be weak or pitiful, crying and crying out that she is wrong, and begging the emperor for forgiveness.

But she was right, why pleaded guilty? Moreover, if she is disliked by the emperor, she may be able to make King Huan and Xiao Shaoxuan regress.
