Lu Ruoqing didn't know what King Huan was thinking, and she was not interested at all. 『『ge．

She was busy picking out clothes.

Xiao Shaoxuan sat next to him and watched, nodding from time to time, "It's good-looking, this dress is good-looking." ”

Lu Ruoqing glared at him, "You also said it was good-looking just now." ”

She held a begonia embroidered dress in her hand, a lotus pink silk pleated Xiangshui skirt, all of which were red, and looked festive on the emperor's birthday.

On the chair next to it, a peony pattern brocade with gold threads is paired with a long dress covered with the same silk yarn.

Xiao Shaoxuan looked left and right, and said with a wry smile: "I really think it's all good-looking." ”

Lu Ruoqing snorted, "Men are blind!" ”

Xiao Shaoxuan smiled: "Whatever you say about me, I have already married you home anyway, so be blind." ”

Lu Ruoqing, "............"

"Ah, little fool." Xiao Shaoxuan suddenly stepped forward, hugged her horizontally, and then quickly spun around in the air a few times, "Who made my daughter-in-law look good by nature, and she looks good in everything!" ”

"Ahh Stop, stop. Lu Ruoqing hugged him tightly in fright and kept screaming.

"Haha! so that you can say that I am blind. Xiao Shaoxuan threw it on the beauty couch and kissed her fiercely, taking revenge on her.

Lu Ruoqing's face turned red, and she said in shame: "You are a vicious wolf." ”

Xiao Shaoxuan laughed, "That's right! You're my little lamb, and you won't be able to run away in this life. ”

The two laughed sweetly, and lay on the couch together for a long time.

In the end, Lu Ruoqing chose the begonia embroidered dress, "That's it, it's the most suitable for the banquet." ”

.

On the day of the emperor's birthday, the weather was sunny and sunny, and there was a cloudless atmosphere.

Xiao Shaoxuan and Lu Ruoqing rode in the same carriage and arrived at the palace smoothly.

The emperor's birthday banquet was divided into two parts.

The princes and ministers entered from the Donghua Gate and went to the apse of the Jinluan Palace, which was a banquet for the courtiers.

The princesses, princesses, and ladies entered from the Xihua Gate and went to the banquet in the imperial garden for the female dependents.

After getting out of the carriage, Xiao Shaoxuan explained: "Don't worry, I have already taken care of the people in charge of the banquet in the palace." As long as you stay at the banquet and don't go anywhere else, no one will dare to trouble you. ”

Lu Ruoqing pretended to smile easily, "Don't be afraid!" I'm the princess of Zhenbei now, and others have to weigh it if they want to find trouble. ”

Xiao Shaoxuan patted her on the shoulder and nodded, "Well, Ti Ying will also take more precautions nearby." ”

After repeated instructions, the two entered the palace separately at the door.

Lu Ruoqing, under the guidance of the palace people, arrived at the Imperial Garden and took a seat according to the predetermined position.

It stands to reason that she should sit at the same table with the concubines.

But the princes in front of the emperor have not been raised, and King Huan, who has the longest preface, has not yet married, and there is no Princess Huan present today.

After King Huan, there is the seventh prince King Qi, that is, the royal brother of the medicine jar in Xiao Shaoxuan's mouth.

married the princess early, but the princess had a bad life, and died of hemorrhage when she gave birth to the little princess.

The rest of the princes are still young and have no princesses.

So, the only daughter-in-law of the emperor is Lu Ruoqing.

---- Princess of Zhenbei.

Because it was not good to set up a table for her alone, he made up and let her sit with the princesses.

Other princesses are okay to say, but Princess Jiaoyue has a holiday with her.

As soon as they met, Princess Jiaoyue sneered: "Yo! Who am I? It turned out to be a female officer Lu. ”

Her tone was clearly saying that Lu Ruoqing was not worthy of being a princess.

The atmosphere on the table was suddenly not good.

Lu Ruoqing was very indifferent, and said with a smile: "It is my honor to record the words and deeds of the courtiers for my father and emperor in the court. ”

She has a down-to-earth and generous attitude, without any embarrassment.

The princesses couldn't help but be impressed by her.

Princess Jiaoyue punched the cotton, naturally dissatisfied.

Immediately, Yin Yang said strangely: "Honored? The likes of female officials are just a little higher than the palace maids. ”

Lu Ruoqing smiled lightly, "Jiaoyue, today is the birthday of my father. ”

Seeing that she was not only not angry, but also provoked, Princess Jiaoyue couldn't help but be even more annoyed, "I don't need you to advise!" Don't I know that today is my father's birthday? It's ridiculous! ”

Lu Ruoqing said with a smile: "If you know, how can you be so rude to your sister-in-law on your father's birthday." ”

"Sister-in-law? Hahaha......" Princess Jiaoyue seemed to hear the most ridiculous joke, and burst out laughing, "Ouch! Who taught you to be so thick-skinned and dare to call yourself my sister-in-law?! ”

Lu Ruoqing deliberately looked at her with disdain, and asked, "What about that?" I'm not your sister-in-law, what's it? ”

Princess Jiaoyue scolded, "You are a!" ”

Lu Ruoqing was not angry about this.

Just nodded lightly and replied, "Okay, I know what you think of me." ”

"Hehe, what do you know?" Princess Jiaoyue was about to sneer a few more words, when she saw Concubine Su Shu coming over surrounded by concubines, and the stars were holding the moon.

And her mother, because she lost the title of concubine, could only follow behind Concubine Su Shu, looking depressed and lonely, looking at it really made her heart flutter.

Princess Jiaoyue hurriedly walked over, grabbed Concubine Sun and smiled sweetly, "Mother, you are here." ”

Concubine Sun patted her hands and boasted, "Well, it's still my daughter who is the most intimate." ”

The atmosphere between mother and daughter is very affectionate and harmonious.

Concubine Su looked at it in her eyes and laughed deliberately, "Yes, it is said that my daughter is my mother's little padded jacket." ”

She deliberately raised her voice to attract the attention of the concubines and princesses.

Now the harem concubine is the most noble with her position, and naturally someone is indispensable to flatter.

"Don't worry, concubine, when His Royal Highness King Huan marries, with Princess Huan, there will be a daughter-in-law who is filial every day, and her son is no worse than her daughter."

"yes, yes."

These words, falling on the ears of Concubine Sun and Princess Jiaoyue, couldn't help but be a little harsh.

After all, for concubines, how can giving birth to a princess be as noble as giving birth to a son?

For the emperor's children, how can being a princess be more powerful than a prince?

Concubine Sun's face was not good-looking at that time.

Jiaoyue was even more angry and gritted her teeth.

However, Concubine Su had a deep holiday with their mother and daughter, and deliberately smiled: "Sister Sun, don't worry, when you grow up in a few years, you will be as filial to you as you are married to your daughter-in-law." ”

Concubine Sun was suddenly choked.

It was right for the eleventh prince to call her a concubine, but ......, she was just an adoptive mother, not a biological mother.

---- hearts are separated from the belly.

Jiaoyue's face turned red with anger, and she pulled Concubine Sun, "Mother, let's go." ”

Concubine Sun still had to hold her back, "You go and sit in your place, and I will also take a seat." ”

After all, today is a happy day, and everyone is watching, and they dare not be disrespectful to Concubine Su in person.

So, Jiaoyue came back with a stomach.

Lu Ruoqing looked at it coldly.

She was not interested in the intrigue between Concubine Sun, Princess Jiaoyue and Concubine Su Shu.

Instead, he kept looking at Concubine Li.

The concubines in the emperor's harem are generally not high, only the two concubines of Su Shu and Concubine Sun, followed by the highest rank is Concubine Ligui.

Concubine Li is dressed very gorgeously, surrounded by brocade clothes and pearls, but her complexion is not very good.

Lu Ruoqing couldn't help but chuckle in her heart.

The emperor hid Mrs. Helan in Concubine Li's place, and asked Mrs. Helan to take the place of Concubine Li's concubine, in exchange for everyone to suffer, Concubine Li must not eat well, sleep well, no wonder her complexion is not good.

It's strange that she has already leaked the news to King Huan.

It stands to reason that as long as Concubine Su Shu checks a little, she will find that there is something wrong with Concubine Li, why has she not acted all the time?

Perhaps, she underestimated Concubine Su Shu.

After all, to be able to achieve the position of concubine, more or less, it is still more or less thoughtful than ordinary people.

Concubine Su was definitely unwilling to cause trouble herself.

So ......, I have been waiting for the opportunity, waiting for the opportunity for others to go to Concubine Li's residence to make trouble.

So, who will be the one who pokes the hornet's nest?

Lu Ruoqing raised her eyes lightly and looked at Princess Jiaoyue who was sitting opposite her, she was impatient, frivolous, and simple-minded, but she was a suitable candidate.

She began to ponder quietly.

"Everyone is here, right?" Concubine Su cleared her throat and asked as she looked around at everyone.

This is just a vain question.

The rules in the palace are strict, and no one will be late for the emperor's birthday banquet.

Immediately afterwards, Concubine Su Shufei got up and said: "Today is the emperor's forty-sixth birthday, although it is not a whole birthday, it is also a happy day for the whole world to celebrate, let's toast the emperor first!" ”

"A toast to the emperor."

"A toast to my father."

Lu Ruoqing got up with everyone, raised her glass with both hands above her head, and then drank it all.

Concubine Su said with a smile: "All sit, all sit." ”

A faction presides over the six palaces.

Other concubines didn't dare to object, but Concubine Sun was a person who had been a concubine for many years, and her face was naturally a little complicated and unspeakable.

Princess Jiaoyue also looked unconvinced.

Lu Ruoqing looked at her, deliberately hooked the corners of her mouth and lowered her head to smile, which seemed to have a deep meaning.

Princess Jiaoyue was already angry.

Seeing that she seemed to have something to say, she couldn't help but be annoyed: "What are you laughing at?" Yin and yang are weird, with a bad face. ”

At the banquet, Concubine Su Shu had just finished speaking, and no one dared to interject casually, so she was naturally silent.

Princess Jiaoyue's voice was particularly loud.

Everyone turned their eyes to her.

Su Shufei will not let go of this opportunity.

immediately frowned and criticized, "Jiaoyue, you are usually unrestrained in private, why are you still so noisy today?" It's so unbelievable. ”

Princess Jiaoyue said angrily: "It was the princess of Zhenbei who laughed first!" ”

In an uproar, everyone turned their eyes to Lu Ruoqing again.

Lu Ruoqing was calm.

She got up and said, "Today is the emperor's birthday, and as a daughter-in-law, I am naturally really happy in my heart, of course I have to smile." ”

Princess Jiaoyue gritted her teeth and said, "You are squeezing your eyebrows at me, it is clear that you have bad intentions!" ”

Lu Ruoqing pretended to be sincere and said, "Jiaoyue, I am already married to His Royal Highness the King of Zhenbei, and I am your Nine Emperor sister-in-law, how can I be ill-intentioned towards you?" ”

Her eyes were extremely sarcastic, "As a sister-in-law, I will only care about you and love you." ”
